Umthetho we-EU supply chain kumele ubandakanye umkhakha wezezimali

I-EU Supply Chain Law (CS3D): Ukungafakwa komkhakha wezezimali kanye nezikhuthazo zokusimama zabaphathi kubukela phansi i-Green Deal

IKomidi Lezindaba Zezomthetho lePhalamende LaseYurophu lihlela ukwamukela isikhundla salo sokuxoxisana nge-Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence (CS3D) Directive ngoMashi 13 futhi izonquma ngezici ezibalulekile zesiphakamiso emasontweni azayo. I-Economy for the Common Good (ECO) icela ama-MEPs ukuthi avotele ukubandakanyeka komkhakha wezezimali kanye nezinzuzo zokuqinisekisa ukuthi abaphathi bakhuthaza okuhle okufanayo.

Umsebenzi ku-CS3D uqhubeka ngokugcwele ePhalamende laseYurophu. Iningi lamakomiti ahlangene amukele imibiko yawo ngomhla zingama-24-25 kuMasingana kanti inqubo yokubhala izichibiyelo zokuvumelana isiqalile eKomidini Lezindaba Zezomthetho eliholayo (JURI). Ngaphambi kwevoti lekomiti le-JURI elihlelelwe uMashi 13, amanye amaqembu ezepolitiki afuna ukungayifaki amafemu ezezimali ezingeni lesiphakamiso futhi enqabe umbono wokuxhumanisa amaholo aphezulu nokusebenza okuzinzile kwenkampani - okuyisinyathelo esizokwenza umbono we-GWÖ ukubukela phansi imizamo yokulawula ye-EU yokudala uhlelo lwezezimali nezomnotho oluzinzile futhi olunomthwalo wemfanelo emphakathini.

Umkhakha wezezimali kufanele ufakwe kububanzi

Nakuba i-European Commission ifuna ukufaka umkhakha wezezimali kububanzi be-CS3D, uMkhandlu uya ngakolunye uhlangothi futhi ufuna ukukhulula izinkampani zezezimali. Futhi ukufa akukakaphonswa ePhalamende LaseYurophu: izikhundla ezamukelwa amakomidi amaningana ngoJanuwari zihlanganisa umkhakha wezezimali, kodwa amanye ama-MEP azama ukususa wonke umkhakha endaweni. Uma kubhekwa indima ebalulekile edlalwe umkhakha wezezimali ekuguqukeleni emnothweni osimeme, imizamo enjalo yokuhlenga umnotho kumele ivinjwe. 

Francis Alvarez, owayengumqondisi weParis Stock Exchange kanye nomkhulumeli we-Economy for the Common Good, uthi: »Kungenzeka kanjani lokho? Umkhakha wezezimali uthathwa yi-OECD njengomkhakha osengozini enkulu mayelana nezindaba ezisimeme, futhi ukungayifaki kanye nokungabambisi abaphathi bezezimali kuzosidambisa iSivumelwano Sokusimama. Izimali ezisimeme ziyisu lokugxila kwezinqubomgomo zamanje ze-EU - i-Green Deal ngokuvamile kanye neSustainable Finance Action Plan ikakhulukazi. Unyaka wezi-2022 uzongena emlandweni njengonyaka lapho kweqa khona imingcele yeplanethi yesihlanu neyesithupha kweyisishiyagalolunye. Isikhathi sokuyekethisa ngokuvilapha kumele siphele,” kusho u-Álvarez.

Iholo labaphathi kufanele lihlanganiswe nokusebenza okuzinzile kuxhunywe izinkampani

Enye inkulumo-mpikiswano lapho izibalo ziphezulu khona isinxephezelo sezikhulu. Nalapha futhi, uMkhandlu kanye nezingxenye zePhalamende zizama ukuguqula isiphakamiso seKhomishana sokuxhumanisa amaholo aguquguqukayo ezimenenja nezindlela zokuvikela isimo sezulu kanye nemigomo yokunciphisa. I-Economy for the Common Good icela ama-MEPs ukuthi avotele avune ukuxhumanisa inkokhelo yesigungu ekusebenzeni kokusimama kwenkampani. U-Álvarez: “Masikhulume iqiniso. Kuze kube manje, ukusimama kuvame ukubonakala njengosongo emaholweni abaphathi. Sidinga ushintsho oluyisisekelo ekucabangeni kwethu. Izikhuthazo zemigomo efanele zibalulekile«.

Umkhawulo ophezulu wokuholelwa amaholo asebhange

Ngokusho kwe-European Banking Authority (EBA), isibalo sabahola kakhulu emkhakheni wamabhange abahola ama-euro angaphezu kwesigidi sikhuphuke sisuka ku-1.383 ngo-2020 saya ku-1.957 ngo-2021, unyaka wokugcina wokubika - sikhuphuke ngo-41,5 %1 . Lokhu kuthuthukiswa kuphambene nezincomo eziqukethwe emibikweni yaminyaka yonke ka-2018 ye-International Monetary Fund (IMF), i-World Bank Association, i-FED kanye ne-European Central Bank ngesidingo sokukhawulela amaholo. Njengesinyathelo sokuqala, i-GWÖ ihlongoza ukukhawulela amaholo aphezulu abe yi-EUR 1 million. “Ama-euro ayisigidi ngonyaka acishe aphindwe izikhathi ezingu-40 kunenani elincane elingase liholwe ama-euro angu-2.000 100 ngenyanga emazweni anemali eningi. Imali engenayo edlula lo mkhawulo kufanele ikhokhiswe intela engu-1%, funa umphakathi uhlakazeke,” kuphikisa u-Álvarez. Futhi »ama-euro ayizigidi ezingu-XNUMX kufanele atholakale kuphela kwabahola kakhulu abafakazela ukuthi benza okuhle emphakathini kanye nomhlaba«. Umhlaba ongcono udinga kokubili: okungenani isilinganiso esifanayo sokusimama kokusebenza engxenyeni eguquguqukayo yeholo njengokusebenza kwezimali kanye nomkhawulo ophezulu ngokuphelele wemali engenayo yabaphathi.
