Abstract

A financial system that supports the real economy requires a different understanding of norms and values. Financial stability is not a private good, but a public good. The right to participate in preparing rules for the stability of financial markets as well as guaranteeing a fair and just distribution of the net benefits has to be the focal point in multilateral and regional negotiations. Rightly, citizens demand a more just participation in the process of decision-making and that the net benefits from the financial sector are equitable distributed. A start could be made with the certification of financial products and the launch of an international organization for the certification. Financial innovations should go through a test phase and subsequently licensed if they meet the standards before circulating it through the financial markets. Such a process could lead to a fair pricing process and new methods of risk management. Ein Finanzsystem, das die Realwirtschaft unterstützt, setzt ein anderes Verständnis von Normen und Werten voraus. Finanzmarktstabilität ist kein privates, sondern ein öffentliches Gut. Das Mitspracherecht in der Bereitstellung von öffentlichen Regelungen zur Stabilität der Finanzmärkte sowie eine faire und gerechte Verteilung des Nutzens von Finanzprodukten müssen daher im Mittelpunkt multilateraler und regionaler Verhandlungen stehen. Mit Recht fordern Bürgerinnen und Bürger eine gerechte Teilhabe an den Verhandlungsprozessen und dem Nettonutzen aus dem Finanzsektor. Ein Beginn könnte mit der Zertifizierung von Finanzprodukten und der Gründung einer internationalen Zertifizierungsorganisation gemacht werden. Finanzinnovationen sollten eine Testphase durchlaufen und dann lizensiert in den Umlauf gebracht werden, wenn sie sich während der Testphase als normengerecht herausgestellt haben. So könnten faire Preisbildung und neue Methoden des Risikomanagements entwickelt werden.
