Stop!

Global dimension

Exclusion and Dominance

Page 16: Proposals , Conclusions and Dialogues

Sovereignty of MS:

CriticsR e a l a r g u m e n t s

• Host states allowed to take steps if weaknesses are identified - that can be abused for commercial or protectionist reasons

• ESAs empowered to override national regulators

• Changes give EU more powers. Emergency declared by the Commission without involvement of the Council. Unclear emergency procedure.

• MS should decide first what will ESAs do and how

Page 17: Proposals , Conclusions and Dialogues

CriticsR e a l a r g u m e n t s

• Not clear how global cohesion is addressed

• Need for allignment with G-20 and Basel.

• It would be very bad for EU and its financial centres If we forge ahead disregarding what US, Switzerland and others are doing

Global cohesion:

Page 18: Proposals , Conclusions and Dialogues

Fiscal responsibilities of MS:

CriticsR e a l a r g u m e n t s

• June’s ECOFIN mandate (shoulnd’t impinge on the fiscal responsibility of the MS) breached

• EU financial supervisory structure needs an EU fiscal arrangement

Page 19: Proposals , Conclusions and Dialogues

CriticsR e a l a r g u m e n t s

• QMV to recognize the size and importance of financial services relative to GDP

Exclusion and Dominance

• Any compromise would need to assure that host states receive all prudential information about entire group.

• Eurozone dominance in ESRB

• Bankers dominance in ESRB, disregarding the fact that the choice between security and price is a democratic trade-off decision taken by governments, for the citizens.

Page 20: Proposals , Conclusions and Dialogues

Options/ScenariosApproach Implications Effects

Yes we can “Political” arrangement despite all the odds

Fast, “big bang” type of approach

Now, with the big stakes and big appointments discussed

Yes but … Prolonged existence of the current L3 non-mandatory coordination

Prolonged existence of CAN DOs and CAN’T DOs

Until next financial crisis

Is the money spent wisely?

Substitutes: colleges? ECB role?

New revised Commission’s proposal?
