"At a time of considerable financial instability, short selling could aggravate the downward spiral in the prices of shares, notably in financial institutions, in a way which could ultimately threaten their viability and create systemic risks. Therefore, the measure put forward in 2008 to restrict or ban short selling in some or all securities appears necessary. In the absence of a European legislative framework, this regulation led to the creation of different laws in the 27 Member States. However, we have to consider that in order to guarantee the functioning of the internal market, improving the conditions in which it operates and ensuring a high level of protection of investors and consumers, it is worthwhile establishing a common legislative framework of laws and relevant powers with regard to short selling and credit default swaps. In light of this, I voted in favour of the proposal for a regulation."@en1
