Commission Statements

Declaration in relation to supervisory powers on credit rating agencies and other areas

The Commission notes that agreement has been found on granting certain supervisory powers to ESMA with regard to credit rating agencies. The Commission considers that it could in future be useful to entrust supervisory competences to the European Authorities in other areas. In particular, this could concern market infrastructure. The Commission will examine these questions in depth and will make the legislative proposals which it considers appropriate.

Declarations in relation to crisis management and resolution

In its Communication of 26 May 2010 on Bank Resolution Funds, the Commission emphasised that ‘an appropriate first step could be a system based around the establishment of a harmonized network of national funds linked to a set of coordinated national crisis management arrangements’.

The Commission confirms that it intends to make legislative proposals for a complete set of tools for prevention and resolution of failing banks in Spring 2011. This will ensure that public authorities are able to resolve failing financial institutions whilst minimising the impact of failures on the financial system, limiting damage to the economy and the use of public sector resources.

The Commission confirms that the ESAs should play an important role in these areas and that it will examine which powers concerning the tools for prevention and resolution of failing banks should be conferred upon it.

These arrangements are a first step and would be reviewed by 2014 with the aim of creating Union integrated crisis management and supervisory arrangements, as well as a Union Resolution Fund in the longer term.
