ZNAČAJ KONCEPTA ZAŠTITE ŽIVOTNE SREDINE U PRAVU EVROPSKE CENTRALNE BANKE
Apstrakt
Predmet analize u radu jeste utvrđivanje značaja i opravdanosti koncepta zaštite životne sredine u monetarnoj legislativi Evropske centralne banke (ECB) kao vrhovne monetarne institucije EU zadužene ze implementaciju jedinstvene monetarne politike i očuvanje monetarne stabilnosti kao javnog dobra. U tom smislu, u radu se želi ukazati na razloge koji opravdavaju tenedenciju “ozelenjivanja” savremene monetarne legislative na primeru mandata Evropske centralne banke, identifikovanjem potencijalnog pravnog osnova za vršenje ekoloških funkcija, dometa i ograničenja zelenog centralnog bankarstva. Iako se u pravu Evropske centralne banke uočava jasna tendencija širenja njenih nadležnosti, koja se pored cenovne stabilnosti, danas odnosi i na očuvanje opšte finansijske stabilnosti, autor je mišljenja da aktivnosti ECB u rešavanju ekoloških problema ne mogu predstavljati primarno polje njenog delovanja, već sekundarne aktivnosti, ali da se time njena uloga u optimalnom upravljanju ekološkim problemima ne umanjuje i ne isključuje, uzimajući u obzir kompleksnost i dinamičnost događaja u oblasti očuvanja prirode koji impliciraju angažovanje svih institucija iz domena javnog prava gde centralne banke svakako pripadaju. Takođe, Evropska centralna banka svojim aktima i merama usmerava delanje ne samo centralnih banaka država članica, već i centralnih banaka drugih zemalja koje usled saradnje sa njom u međunarodnom monetarnom poretku moraju ne samo da poznaju, već i da prilagođavaju svoja zakonska rešenja po ugledu na akte ECB. U takvim okolnostima ozelenjivanje mandata ECB može poslužiti kao primer dobre prakse i drugim centralnim bankama da ekološke komponetete uključe u svoje monetarne strategije i ujedno stvoriti uslove za bolju koordinaciju ciljeva monetarne i ekološke politike u praksi.
