一周要闻

欧盟、美国将对金融体系实施更严格的政府监管

欧盟和美国已着手制定针对金融市场的更为严格的政府监管法律。为4月在伦敦举行的G20首脑会议做准备，欧盟领导人提出一项计划旨在创建一个包含金融市场、金融产品和参与者，以及对冲基金的综合的监管体系。该计划要求设立两个金融体系，从收集和分析金融稳定性的信息两个角度监督有关国家的机构。在美国，奥巴马政府宣布将针对全美最大的20家银行开展财务状况审查，以确定在经济形势进一步恶化的情况下的应变能力。有传闻认为这一“压力测试”将导致一些银行的国有化，与此相反，美国政府表示，这是“确保银行具有相应的资本和流动性⋯⋯以恢复经济增长，”而且，任何投资将采取优先股形式，并将在财务状况有所改善之时转换成普通股并出售。

全球领导人提出应对汞使用的方案

140多个国家已经同意进行谈判以签订具有法律约束力的条约以逐步停止使用汞——人一旦暴露在这种毒素环境中，将产生阻碍大脑发育、肝脏损伤、记忆丧失和视觉损害的影响。这项协议在联合国环境部长会议上提出。在美国宣布其改变立场、将出台汞排放的强制性法令后，中国、印度和其他国家也已同意支持制定一项强制性的条约。

食品丑闻催生更严格的监管

对一系列全球食品丑闻的回应——包括美国最近爆发的沙门氏菌污染花生酱事件和中国的三聚氰胺污染奶粉事件——世界上最大的粮食生产商都在严格控制其生产过程。“食品安全已经成为一个政治议题，”粮食和农业组织的食品和营养司负责食品质量的行政长官表示，“没有政府能够接受因为食品安全问题而不能保护本国人民。”美国国会提议设立一个食品安全管理行政部门，相当于欧洲食品安全局。目前还没有全球性的食品安全标准，雀巢等公司正在实施ISO的标准。

富裕国家未能兑现气候承诺

据英国报纸Guardian分析发现，在过去7年中，富裕国家承诺用近180亿美元来帮助发展中国家应对气候变化，但是兑现的不到9亿美元。分析还显示，在过去4年里，非洲这一最贫穷的大陆——使用的资金不到基金的12％；且这些国家需要花3年的时间才能取得资金；同时，用于应对气候变化的资金属于官方援助预算，很少用于卫生保健、教育和扶贫。到目前为止，世界银行的两个气候投资基金还没有资金进入，7.6亿美元的大部分是通过联合国全球环境机制用于中国、印度和巴西，而余下不到1亿美元用于49个最贫穷的国家。

This Week's Top Headlines

EU, U.S. Push for Stricter Government Oversight of Financial System

The European Union and the United States have moved to enact tighter government control over financial markets. In preparation for the April Group of 20 summit in London, European leaders proposed a plan to create a comprehensive regulatory framework covering financial markets, products, and participants, including hedge funds. In the United States, the Obama administration announced plans to scrutinize the financial conditions of the 20 biggest U.S. banks to determine their resiliency to worsening conditions. Contrary to rumors that these “stress tests” would result in the nationalization of some banks, the U.S. government said it would “ensure that banks have the capital and liquidity they need … to restore economic growth,” and that any investment would take the form of preferred shares that would be converted to common shares and sold as financial conditions improve.

Global Leaders Tackle Mercury

More than 140 nations have agreed to negotiate a legally binding treaty to phase out the use of mercury—a toxin that hampers brain development and causes liver damage, memory loss, and vision impairment when humans are exposed. The agreement—made at a UN meeting of environmental ministers—followed the announcement that the United States has reversed its stance on mercury emissions and now favors a legal ban. Based on that change, China, India, and other nations have agreed to endorse a mandatory treaty as well.

Food Scandals Prompt Tighter Control

In response to a series of global food scandals—including the recent U.S. salmonella outbreak in peanuts and Chinas melamine-tainted milk episode—the worlds largest food producers are tightening control of their manufacturing operations. “Food safety has become a political agenda,” chief of food quality in the Food and Agriculture Organizations food and nutrition division. The U.S. Congress proposed creating a Food Safety Administration, equivalent to the European Food Safety Authority. While there are currently no global food safety standards, companies such as Nestlé have implemented ISO standards.

Wealthy Countries Coming Up Short on

Climate Commitments

An analysis by the Guardian found that while rich nations have pledged nearly US$18 billion in the last seven years to help developing countries adapt to climate change, they have dispersed less than US$0.9 billion. The analysis also revealed that Africa—the poorest continent—has received less than 12 percent of climate fund money spent in the last 4 years; it can take countries three years to access the money; and money pledged for climate change comes from official aid budgets, leaving less for health, education, and poverty alleviation. So far, no money has been deposited in the two World Bank climate investment funds, and most of the US$760 million distributed through the UNs Global Environment Facility has gone to China, India, and Brazil, leaving less than US$100 million for the 49 poorest countries.
