Everyone loves to bash the European Commission. In normal times, it is portrayed as remote, inefficient and unaccountable. But since the eurozone debt crisis, more serious charges have been made about its understanding of finance and financial markets. The most recent is the International Monetary Fund’s internal review of its own involvement in the first Greek bailout. It blasts the commission’s lack of experience of overseeing countries’ structural adjustment, and of crisis management more generally.
歐盟委員會(European Commission)成了衆矢之的。平時,它被形容爲冷淡、低效、不負責任。但自從歐元區債務危機爆發以來,它對財政和金融市場的理解招致了更猛烈的批評。最近,國際貨幣基金組織(IMF)在對自身在首輪希臘紓困中的作用進行內部評估時,也批評了歐委會。IMF抨擊歐委會在監督各國結構性調整和總體危機管理方面缺乏經驗。
