Commissaire Cioloş: "nous devons mettre un terme à l'hyper-spéculation sur les produits agricoles"

20/09/2010

A l'occasion d'une audition publique sur la révision de la directive sur les instruments de marchés financiers (MiFID), le Commissaire Dacian Cioloş a exprimé sa préoccupation en ce qui concerne l'impact sur l'agriculture de la spéculation excessive sur les marchés financiers.

"Nous devons prendre des mesures contre l'extrême volatilité des prix des produits agricoles", a-t-il indiqué, soulignant que la spéculation ne doit pas mettre en danger l'existence d'exploitations agricoles parfaitement viables en temps normal.
