Open Surveys on the Review of the European Supervisory Authorities

Mazars is conducting three online surveys regarding the review of the European Supervisory Authorities (EBA, ESMA and EIOPA, respectively) with a view to gain input from stakeholders and the interested public on the set-up and activities of these authorities. The feedback will provide input for a study on the ESAs which Mazars carries out for the European Parliament's Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee. Given the forthcoming review of the European System of Financial Supervision (ESFS), the surveys will feed into a comprehensive background for Members regarding possible changes to the ESFS set-up.
All interested stakeholders, including academics and informed individuals, are invited to complete one or more of Mazars' surveys (see links below) by Friday 21 June 2013.
All responses to the questionnaire will be received and analysed by Mazars (see Mazars' statement of confidentiality in the attached letter).
 
Please do not send any material to the European Parliament or its services.

The committee voted against using deposit guarantee funds for resolution actions and also set out strict conditions for using taxpayer's money.

The confusion and delay that surrounded decisions on the Cyprus assistance plan were not only due to Cypriot intransigence.

Il-Parlament Ewropew għandu rwol kbir fit-tfassil tal-aġenda fil-qasam tal-politiki Ewropej u l-Kumitat għall-Affarijiet Ekonomiċi u Monetarji (ECON) huwa ta' importanza ewlenija fix-xogħol tal-Parlament. Huwa responsabbli għal kwistjonijiet bħalma huma l-politiki ekonomiċi u monetarji tal-UE, il-politiki tat-taxxa u tal-kompetizzjoni, il-moviment ħieles tal-kapital u r-regolazzjoni tas-servizzi finanzjarji (il-banek, l-assigurazzjoni, il-fondi tal-pensjonijiet, il-ġestjoni tal-assi/fondi, il-kontabilità, is-sistemi monetarji u finanzjarji internazzjonali eċċ.). Barra minn hekk, minħabba li l-kotra tax-xogħol tal-Parlament issir fil-livell tal-Kumitati, huwa l-ECON li jieħu ħsieb il-parti l-kbira tal-ħidma Parlamentari dwar dawn l-oqsma ekonomiċi u monetarji prominenti. B'hekk l-ECON jinsab fil-qalba tax-xogħol tal-Parlament dwar il-kriżi ekonomika u finanzjarja li għaddejjin minnha, u għaldaqstant għandu influwenza sinifikanti fuq l-aġenda politika, sew fl-UE kif ukoll internazzjonalment.
 
F'dak li jirrigwarda l-politiki monetarji tal-Unjoni u l-funzjonament tal-Unjoni Monetarja Ewropea u s-Sistema Monetarja Ewropea, l-obbligu li l-BĊE jagħti rendikont lill-Parlament huwa ta' importanza sinifikanti, minħabba li jservi ta' kontrapiż importanti għall-indipendenza tal-bank ċentrali.
 
L-ECON jaqdi funzjoni ewlenija fit-tiswir tal-leġiżlazzjoni tal-UE, minħabba l-Parlament, flimkien mal-Kunsill, huwa koleġiżlatur fil-parti l-kbira tal-oqsma ta' politika tal-UE. Il-liġijiet tal-UE spiss jiddeterminaw il-liġijiet u r-regolamenti nazzjonali fl-Istati Membri, speċjalment fis-servizzi finanzjarji u, wara li daħal fis-seħħ it-Trattat ta' Lisbona, fil-qasam tal-governanza ekonomika Ewropea. Dan jagħti lok biex il-Membri tal-ECON isawru l-leġiżlazzjoni tal-UE f'dawn l-oqsma importanti ta' politika tal-UE.
