The Robin Hood tax is a package of financial transaction taxes (FTT) proposed by a campaigning group of civil society non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Campaigners have suggested the tax could be implemented globally, regionally, or unilaterally by individual nations. Conceptually similar to the Tobin tax (which was proposed for foreign currency exchange only), it would affect a wider range of asset classes including the purchase and sale of bonds, commodities, mutual funds, stocks, unit-trusts, and derivatives such as futures and options.

  • La taxa Robin Hood o impost Robin Hood comunament es refereix a un paquet d'impostos sobre les transaccions financeres (ITF), proposat per una campanya d'un grup d'OSALs. Els activistes han suggerit que l'impost podria ser implementat a nivell global, regional o de forma unilateral per nacions individualment. Conceptualment semblant a la taxa Tobin, que afectaria a una àmplia gamma de classes d'actius que inclou la compra i venda d'accions, bons, mercaderies, fons d'inversió, i derivats, com ara futurs i opcions. La taxa Tobin es va proposar només per canvi de moneda estrangera. Una campanya mundial amb seu al Regne Unit per l'impost Robin Hood es va posar en marxa el 10 febrer de 2010 i està sent dirigit per una coalició de més de 50 organitzacions, entre elles , Comic Relief i l'UNICEF. El govern del Regne Unit va publicar una resposta afavorint el canvi de gravàmens bancaris i un impost sobre les activitats financeres, citant l'informe del Fons Monetari Internacional a la reunió dels G20 del juny de 2010, "Una contribució justa i substancial del sector financer". No obstant això, la major part dels esforços de la campanya s'han centrat en la variant de l'ITF. En la tardor de 2011 la campanya de Robin Hood havia adquirit un impuls extra considerable i el suport de destacats líders d'opinió, amb una proposta de la Comissió Europea per aplicar un per entrar en el debat legislatiu. La proposta, recolzada per onze estats membres de la UE, es va aprovar al Parlament Europeu el desembre de 2012, i pel Consell de la Unió Europea el gener de 2013. L'acord formal en els detalls dels ITF de la UE encara han de ser decidit i aprovat pel Parlament Europeu, però s'espera que entri en vigor a principis de 2014. (ca)
  • Die Robin-Hood-Steuer ist eine vorgeschlagene Finanztransaktionssteuer. Ähnlich wie mit der Tobin-Steuer soll mit ihr Geld für die internationale Entwicklung und die öffentlichen Haushalte generiert werden, um die Armut und den Klimawandel zu bekämpfen. Die Kampagne zur Einführung einer Robin-Hood-Steuer wurde am 10. Februar 2010 gestartet und wird von einer Koalition aus über 50 karitativen Einrichtungen und Organisationen, darunter Comic Relief, Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, Oxfam und UNICEF, getragen. Sie folgt dabei dem Beispiel der deutschen Kampagne „Steuer gegen Armut“, die im Oktober 2009 begann. Die vorgeschlagene Steuer ist nach der Sagengestalt Robin Hood benannt, der in mehreren spätmittelalterlichen bis frühneuzeitlichen englischen Balladenzyklen zu einem Vorkämpfer für soziale Gerechtigkeit stilisiert wurde.

  • The Robin Hood tax is a package of financial transaction taxes (FTT) proposed by a campaigning group of civil society non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Campaigners have suggested the tax could be implemented globally, regionally, or unilaterally by individual nations. Conceptually similar to the Tobin tax (which was proposed for foreign currency exchange only), it would affect a wider range of asset classes including the purchase and sale of bonds, commodities, mutual funds, stocks, unit-trusts, and derivatives such as futures and options. A United-Kingdom-based global campaign for the Robin Hood tax was launched on 10 February 2010 and is being run by a coalition of over 50 charities and organisations, including Christian Aid, Comic Relief and UNICEF. The UK government published a response favouring instead bank levies and a financial activities tax, citing the International Monetary Fund's report to the June 2010 G20 meeting, "A Fair and Substantial Contribution by the Financial Sector". The Robin Hood tax campaign also supports both a Bank levy and a Financial Activity Tax, saying they are agnostic about the chosen mechanism providing it involves a sizeable transfer of wealth from the financial sector to the needy. However most of their campaigning efforts have focussed on the FTT variant. By autumn 2011 the Robin Hood campaign had gained considerable extra momentum and support from prominent opinion formers, with a proposal from the European Commission to implement an FTT tax at EU level set to enter the legislative pipeline. The proposal, supported by eleven EU member states, was approved in the European Parliament in December 2012, and by the Council of the European Union in January 2013. The formal agreement on the details of the EU FTT still need to be decided upon and approved by the European Parliament, but it is expected to go into effect by the beginning of 2018. (en)
