Great! Greening monetary policy will increase pressure on companies to walk the talk and transition to climate neutrality
This was recurring theme during our exchanges with @Lagarde in @EP_Economics

RT @ecb: 🧵We're taking further steps to incorporate climate change into our monetary policy operations.
We'll better account for climate change in our:

Tonight's deal on the "transfer of funds regulation" explained 👇
Thanks for the excellent cooperation @ernesturtasun and @Assita_Kanko!
RT @ernesturtasun: 1/Deal! After months of negotiations with the Council, we agreed the most ambitious travel rule for transfers of crypto-assets in the world. We are putting an end to the wild west of unregulated crypto, closing major loopholes in the European anti-money laundering rules. Thread👇

With colleagues from across the political spectrum we will block Commission's efforts to label fossil gas and nuclear as green.
A greenwashed taxonomy is #notmytaxonomy!
RT @repasi: This is the reason why @Andreas_Schwab and me have tabled an amendment to the EU budget 2023 together with @piratkolaja and @charanzova that requires the creation of additional 150 posts within the @EU_Commission to increase the capacity to properly implement and enforce the #DMA
🇺🇦 Ukrainian ambassador to Germany is clear: say NO to fossil gas in the EU taxonomy.
Together, we can vote it down next week!
RT @EU_Taxud: 👉 Commissioner @PaoloGentiloni today joins MEPs of the @EP_Taxation Subcommittee for an exchange on the 🇪🇺's ambitious #taxation policy

Clear majority of Europeans do not see gas 🏭 and nuclear ☢️ as sustainable. So why would the EU?
MEPs should follow common sense and say NO to a greenwashed taxonomy
@RihoTerras, @caspary, @gahler_michael, @Antonio_Tajani,

RT @beuc: Interesting new study from @WWFEU reveals EU citizens are not on board with the #EUTaxonomy ⛔️ plan to label fossil gas & nuclear as 'green' investments. Majority think that they aren't gr…
RT @AlexanderNL: Big tech een kopje kleiner maken met Europarlementariër @paultang. Nu in je podimo app
Heeft KLM eigenlijk al een einde gemaakt aan belastingontwijking door piloten? #dtv
Big Tech dominates the advertising market and lets everyone pay for that. Including traditional media outlets that do fact checks and do not produce fake news.
Cut out the middle men!
RT @wnip: .@Cannes_Lions sobering fact #1: Globally, advertisers will spend almost $800 billion on advertising in 2022. Five companies will receive over 400 bn of those ad dollars > Google, Meta, Amazon, Bytedance, and Alibaba. @GroupMWorldwide @AdContr…
RT @PositiveMoneyEU: In 2008 credit ratings agencies fuelled the great financial crisis.👎
10 years later, the ECB still relies on them.😕
⚠️Do we want Fitch, S&P, Moody's to determine how climate-related risks will be evaluated tomorrow?😱
Great point by 🇳🇱MEP @paultang
https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/ECON-QZ-732853_EN.pdf
RT @PositiveMoneyEU: On-point observation by @paultang:
What scope do you see for more targeted ECB policy-making like bringing the portfolio in line with the Paris Agreement or stimulating green collateral, wouldn't this help fighting inflation while keeping on track with finance transition?
🥳🎉 @EP_Environment and @EP_Economics voted down the commission proposal to call fossil gas and nuclear green. We say NO to institionalised greenwashing and YES to an energy independent 🇪🇺
Now to the plenary vote in July!
Glad to be hosted by @EU_Taxud's platform for tax good governance, bringing together EU countries and civil society on tax challenges.
We discussed challenges ahead, the importance of democratic scrutiny and the mission of @EP_Taxation.
RT @fwred: 🇮🇹🇪🇺 Checking on the peripheral bond market, it's not looking good. More than the level of bond yields, it's about the process. Volatility is starting to pick up quickly, and liquidity conditions are deteriorating.
RT @charliebilello: Dogecoin: -92% from the Musk SNL peak.

Great turnout at today's EU @taxobservatory conference. Now in a panel on how tax-based competition for the wealthy undermines a fair tax system.
Fortunately I could join virtually!
