The Deposit Guarantee Schemes Directive harmonises a minimum requirement for the funding of Deposit Guarantee Schemes through available financial means, a reserve paid in ex-ante. The Deposit Guarantee Schemes must observe the harmonised minimum target levels as of July 2024. The latest EBA data shows progress in that direction at most Deposit Guarantee Schemes. Three considerations should in particular be borne in mind when assessing the level of funding through available financial means: First ...

Directive (EU) 2015/849, which forms part of the EU regulatory framework to combat financial crime, has shown gaps in the light of recent terrorist attacks and various tax leaks. In this context, the European Commission proposed to amend the directive, along with Directive 2009/101/EC, to broaden their scope, lower thresholds benefiting from exemptions and provide for the creation of automated centralised mechanisms (e.g. central electronic data retrieval systems). The European Parliament and Council ...

The current EU regulatory framework for financial crime –composed of Directive (EU) 2015/849, and Regulation (EU) 2015/847– faces the challenge of keeping pace with technological innovation in financial services, which can create new opportunities to conceal financing, as well as the potential exploitation by criminals of loopholes in the system. Following approval in committee in January, the report is due to be voted in plenary in April.

Achieving the aim of Europe’s banking union project, to break the vicious circle between banks and sovereigns, requires new policy initiatives. The most direct bank-sovereign linkages are national deposit insurance and concentrated domestic sovereign exposures. Thus, simultaneously with a European Deposit Insurance Scheme (EDIS) as proposed by the European Commission in 2015, the European Union should introduce regulatory disincentives against highly concentrated sovereign exposures of euro area ...

Zakonodaja Evropske unije področja neposredne obdavčitve ne ureja neposredno. Kljub temu pa več direktiv in sodna praksa Sodišča Evropske unije (Sodišče) pomagajo pri oblikovanju usklajenih standardov za obdavčitev podjetij in fizičnih oseb. Poleg tega so bila izdana sporočila, v katerih je bil poudarjen pomen preprečevanja utaje davkov in dvojne obdavčitve. Predmet politične razprave so tudi davčna stališča za velika podjetja v nekaterih državah članicah, ki bi utegnila izkrivljati konkurenco.

Bančna unija je nastala kot odziv na finančno krizo in trenutno obsega dva elementa, enotni mehanizem nadzora (SSM) in enotni mehanizem za reševanje (SRM). Namen enotnega mehanizma nadzora je nadzor največjih in najpomembnejših bank neposredno na evropski ravni, enotni mehanizem za reševanje pa je namenjen reševanju bank v težavah s čim nižjimi stroški za davkoplačevalce in realno gospodarstvo. Trenutno poteka razprava o tretjem elementu, evropskem sistemu jamstva za vloge (EDIS).
