THE ROLE OF THE ECB IN THE CRISIS

U okviru završnog rada obraĊuje se tema uloga Europske središnje banke - ECB-a u krizi. ECB je utjelovljenje modernog centralnog bankarstva, a prevladavajući cilj monetarne politike je stabilnost cijena. U vrijeme krize intervencija ECB-a za potporu drţavama u krizi povećavala se postupno. Odredbe koje se odnose na nadleţnosti ECB-a i monetarnu politiku u Ugovorima o EU-u dobro su funkcionirale tijekom prvog desetljeća postojanja eura. No, odredbe su bile primjerene dobrim ekonomskim vremenima, a dolaskom financijske krize koja je eskalirala 2010. godine, usred krize morali su biti napravljeni novi alati. Tada je bila potreba da ECB uloţi kreativne napore za upravljanje krizom i zajamĉi opstanak same valute. Postupci ECB-a nakon svjetske krize opisani su kao neodluĉni u odnosu na druge središnje banke.The final work deals with the role of the ECB in the crisis. The ECB is the embodiment of modern central banking, and the predominant goal of monetary policy is price stability. At the time of the crisis, the ECB's intervention to support countries in crisis was gradually increasing. Provisions relating to the ECB's competences and monetary policy in the EU Treaties functioned well during the first decade of the euro's existence. But the provisions were appropriate for good economic times, and with the advent of the financial crisis that escalated in 2010, new tools had to be made in the midst of the crisis. At the time, there was a need for the ECB to make creative efforts to manage the crisis and guarantee the survival of the currency itself. The ECB's actions following the global crisis have been described as indecisive vis-à-vis other central banks
