We are clearly not arguing that on its own, the FTT would reduce the risk of crises, as prudent macroeconomic policies and effective financial regulation as well as supervision also have a major role to play in crisis prevention. However, by significantly reducing the level of noise trading in general and reducing (or eliminating) high frequency trading in particular, the FTT would make some contribution to the reduction of severe misalignments and hence the probability of violent adjustments. Moreover, in financial crises "gross" exposures matter more than the net ones, and financial transaction taxes will reduce the gap between the two. The growth costs of crises are massive. For example, Reinhart (2009) estimates that, from peak to trough, the average fall in per capita GDP, as result of major financial crises, was 9%. The Institute of Fiscal Studies (2011) has recently estimated that for the UK, when comparing the real median income household income in 2009–2010 with 2012–2013, the decline will be 7.4%. Of course for European countries directly hit by the sovereign debt crisis, like Greece, the decline of GDP and incomes will be far higher."<sup id="cite_ref-Stephany_Griffith-Jones_and_Avinash_Persaud_56-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Stephany_Griffith-Jones_and_Avinash_Persaud-56"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>56<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>In May 2012, member of the executive board of the European Central Bank <a href="/wiki/J%C3%B6rg_Asmussen" title="Jörg Asmussen">Jörg Asmussen</a> also spoke out in favour of an EU FTT, citing additional revenues and justice to be the main reasons.<sup id="cite_ref-SZ-2012-05-12_47-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SZ-2012-05-12-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Former <a href="/wiki/International_Monetary_Fund" title="International Monetary Fund">International Monetary Fund</a> Chief Economist <a href="/wiki/Kenneth_Rogoff" title="Kenneth Rogoff">Kenneth Rogoff</a> is critical of a FTT, saying "Europeans concluded that an FTT's political advantages outweigh its economic flaws... there certainly is a case to be made that an FTT has so much gut-level popular appeal that politically powerful financial interests could not block it."<sup id="cite_ref-reuters_57-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-reuters-57"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Similarly, Oxera,<sup id="cite_ref-58" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-58"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>58<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> the <a href="/wiki/Sveriges_Riksbank" title="Sveriges Riksbank">Sveriges Riksbank</a> (Swedish National Bank)<sup id="cite_ref-59" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-59"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="/wiki/Bureau_for_Economic_Policy_Analysis" title="Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis">Netherlands Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis</a><sup id="cite_ref-60" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-60"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>60<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> have all come out with detailed analysis and criticisms of the proposed EU FTT. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Public_opinion">Public opinion</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=European_Union_financial_transaction_tax&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Public opinion"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A <a href="/wiki/Eurobarometer" title="Eurobarometer">Eurobarometer</a> poll of more than 27,000 people published in January 2011 found that Europeans are strongly in favour of a financial transaction tax by a margin of 61% to 26%.
