Abstract

Zusammenfassung Am 5. Juni 2019 veranstaltete der Finanzausschuss des Deutschen Bundestags eine öffentliche Anhörung zu zwei Anträgen der Fraktionen der FDP und der AfD zum Thema „Target“. Der AfD-Antrag betont die mit den Target-Forderungen der Bundesbank verbundenen Risiken und fordert, „Target-Kredite“ nur bei angemessener Besicherung zu gewähren. Der FDP-Antrag warnt vor den mit einem Austritt aus der Europäischen Währungsunion (EWU) verbundenen Risiken und macht Reformvorschläge für die EWU. Die Stellungnahme der Autoren gegenüber dem Finanzausschuss erklärt die den Anträgen zugrundeliegende Interpretation der rechtlichen und betriebswirtschaftlichen Bedeutung der Target-Salden für falsch und warnt, die Vorschläge selbst könnten zusätzliche Risiken schaffen.
