In June 2023, the Commission tabled a proposal ('FASTER') to make withholding tax procedures in the EU more efficient and secure for cross-border investors and Member State tax administrations, to the benefit of the EU capital markets union. The Council must vote unanimously, after consulting the Parliament, to adopt the directive. Parliament is due to vote its (non-binding) report during the February II plenary session.

The crypto-asset sector, while still relatively new, has already changed the world of payments and investment forever. The fast-changing and volatile nature of the sector and its growing market prominence poses challenges, however, for tax authorities, which are not always able to track the gains made from the trading of crypto-assets. The Commission's proposal to revise the directive on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation ('DAC8') seeks to set up a reporting framework that would ...

Actions taken to create a capital markets union (CMU) should have as their objective improving the range of financing options offered to companies and citizens.

We pay special attention to the different types of financial risk discussed in the public debate: equity, housing, corporate debt, public debt sustainability, and banks and insurance companies’ profits. Our assessment does not point to significant risks in the euro area even if attention should be drawn on some local or specific market segments. Even if monetary policy may not be the most appropriate tool to dampen these risks, the ECB has still some policy options to respond to an economic slowdown ...

Finanšu pakalpojumu regulēšanai un uzraudzībai Eiropas Savienībā tika pievērsta liela uzmanība pasaules finanšu krīzes laikā. Pēckrīzes periodā ES pamatīgi pārskatīja savu finanšu pakalpojumu politiku, lai atjaunotu stabilitāti un uzticēšanos finanšu sistēmai. Balstoties uz tādām iniciatīvām kā banku savienība un kapitāla tirgu savienība, pēdējos gados rosināti vairāk nekā 40 jauni pasākumi. Finanšu nozares reformas process turpinās.

This summer has been a dramatic one for China's stocks markets, with most indices registering losses of more than 40 % from their annual high. European markets have also suffered, and many observers across the globe are now nervously focused on the Asian giant whose economy drove so many other countries' in recent years. Yet the real economic significance of the drama in China may not stem from its bourses' losses; those who lost money on China's stock market are only a small percentage of its citizens ...

On 15 January, the Swiss National Bank discontinued its currency ceiling, set at 1.20 Swiss francs to the euro, less than four years after its introduction. The Swiss franc (CHF) appreciated immediately, reaching as much as 0.97 CHF to the euro that day. This currency move has had, and will continue to have, an impact both on the Swiss and the euro area economies: the system that has been in place is described briefly below as well as the consequences of the Bank's decision.

In this study we assess the most important current regulatory initiatives for the banking sector to the extent possible and on the basis of existing literature. An extensive overview of relevant considerations regarding each measure is followed by a holistic impact assessment. While a direct impact on the real economy through a change in credit supply by banks is assessed to be small, it is difficult to judge the measures’ overall indirect influence on increasing stability. For this purpose six distinct ...
