The committee demands the further strengthening of prudential supervisory and regulatory standards throughout the Union, including an obligation to reserve for liabilities such as bonuses, including terminal bonuses and guaranteed benefits.
Комисията настоява законодателството в сферата на финансовите услуги да осигури превантивни механизми за своевременно и ефективно регистриране на потенциални проблеми, произтичащи от надзора или от контрола върху компаниите, предоставящи финансови услуги, особено що се отнася до случаите, в които се осъществяват международни финансови операции.
The committee requests financial services legislation to provide for preventive early-warning systems that are able efficiently to signal potential problems arising from the supervision or regulation of financial services companies, in particular when cross-border financial operations are involved.
