ic and private spending.”
She also mentioned that the number and the scope of reforms that the EU has agreed on since the beginning of the crisis are truly impressive:
“Following the turbulence in the sovereign debt markets in spring last year, the EU quickly created financial backstops for countries under market pressure (…). We have put in place a new architecture for European financial supervision. This transformation was a first step towards more Europeanization of the supervision of financial markets and more efforts towards greater Europeanization and centralization have been taken. Recently, the Single Supervisory Mechanism has been established for the banking sector as a result of which the supervisory tasks of the national supervisors are taken over by the European Central Bank (ECB) in relation to significant banks. These developments make the European supervisory landscape extremely dynamic, with an entwining of European and national authorities.
The course addresses both rulemaking for the financial markets and noteworthy financial law and financial regulation, in one single course. The aim of this course is to establish a broad and complete foundation of knowledge of the laws and rules which have been triggered by the crisis in the European financial markets and an understanding of the permanent interaction between market behavior and the legislators’ and regulators’ responses to this by way of practical examples.
Participants will get thorough insights in these issues and the recent developments by way of lectures and participation in workshops and will be stimulated to come up with solutions (in papers and presentations) for a more sustainable financial system.
