"The current economic crisis has shown us that we need a system to prevent crises and contain their adverse effects. The de Larosière report, published in February 2009, examined financial supervision in the European Union, proposing the creation of a body which will be responsible for macro-economic supervision at European Union level and offer a solution to the current weaknesses. In addition, the European Parliament has been asking the Commission, as far back as 2000, to come up with proposals intended to guarantee the stability of the European Union’s financial markets. In practical terms, the European Union is at a critical juncture where it must prove its worth to its citizens who are expecting it to provide solutions to the current economic recession and effective mechanisms for preventing future economic recessions. There has been talk about a democratic deficit in the European Union, about the decline in the level of European citizens’ participation in the European Parliament elections, about their failure to identify with European policies. This is why I believe that the Treaty of Lisbon can really mark an important step towards remedying these shortcomings. However, this is only a start. A strong foundation needs to be laid which will foster confidence in Europe’s economic and political system through stability and the benefits gained. We need an effective supervision system which will create the conditions for providing the economy with stable finances and ensuring economic growth and sustainable jobs. The unity of the European single market must also be supervised if we want to avoid its fragmentation. This is why I ultimately feel that the creation of the European Systemic Risk Board and Financial Supervisory Authorities is appropriate."@en1
