"Mr President, we welcome the capital markets union, the Commission’s flagship project to tackle the problem of under-investment in our productive businesses across the single market.
With investment now 70% below its pre-crisis levels, there is an urgent need to invest and particularly to invest in the sustainable sectors of our economy. We support the call for any redesign of capital markets to be orientated towards the needs of small businesses that have been starved of investment, rather than serving the interest of financiers. We will not accept any deregulation in the name of market integration, particularly if it weakens stability or the protection of people’s savings.
While strong regulation is essential, it must match the size and scope of the investment and should not be allowed to choke off local investment schemes. In south-west England, which I represent, we are beginning to see the growth of local investment, particularly in community renewables projects. Here the local connection ensures accountability more effectively than a heavily bureaucratic process which might instead undermine these vital green shoots."@en1
