Recommendation

The achievement of integrated capital markets in the European Union appears simple in concept but has proved difficult in execution. Local preferences often supersede cross-border harmony in critical areas like regulation and supervision. In this erudite report, analysts Karel Lannoo and Apostolos Thomadakis outline a plan to attain more standardized financial markets across EU countries. Policy experts, regulators and financial professionals will find here much worthwhile information on the challenges of building a single capital market in Europe.

Take-Aways

  • Consumer, securities and corporate-oversight laws form a framework in which capital markets can operate efficiently and legally.
  • The financial and sovereign debt crises of the 2000s galvanized European legislators into action.
  • Policy makers need to institute several measures to make capital market integration work.
