欧洲央行执行董事会成员Frank Elderson发出警告，气候危机和自然生态崩溃对全球经济和金融稳定构成日益增长的威胁[1]。Elderson强调，这一问题的本质是"核心经济学"和"核心金融稳定、核心价格稳定"[1]。
作为欧洲最大银行的监管机构，欧洲央行已启动工作计划，以评估生态系统服务损坏对金融系统的风险敞口[1]。该央行计划在今年晚些时候发布分析报告，研究生态系统退化如何转化为欧元区银行的信用损失[1]。
由Elderson、Mark Carney和François Villeroy de Galhau共同创建的绿色金融系统网络（NGFS）成立于2017年[1]。美国在特朗普执政期间去年退出了该组织[1]。
Frank Elderson, a member of the European Central Bank's executive board, has warned that the climate crisis and ecological collapse pose an escalating threat to global economic and financial stability [1]. Elderson emphasized that this concern extends beyond environmental advocacy, stating that "this is not some flower power, environmentalist game. This is core economics. This is core financial stability, core price stability" [1].
The ECB, acting as the regulator of Europe's largest banks, has initiated a work program to assess the financial system's exposure to risks arising from damage to ecosystem services [1]. The central bank plans to release an analytical report later this year examining how "ecosystem degradation pathways" translate into credit loss dynamics for eurozone banks [1].
The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS), established in 2017 and co-founded by Elderson, Mark Carney, and François Villeroy de Galhau, has been instrumental in advancing this agenda [1]. However, the United States withdrew from the NGFS during the Trump administration last year [1].
