A practical arrangement for cooperation between digital economy regulators

June 13, 2022--Overlapping rules in the digital economy require cooperation between national regulatory authorities; a practical arrangement based on case information, case allocation and case resolution would ensure consistency and effective enforcement.

The digital economy brings with it numerous overlaps between regulatory fields, and raises issues for which it might not be clear which regulator would have jurisdiction. Yet, in Europe, there is no enforcement cooperation mechanism to bring together the regulatory authorities responsible for digital-related issues. This creates enforcement gaps and substantial enforcement costs for both regulators and businesses. The European Union's Digital Markets Act (DMA), a new law that should be finalised in autumn, will require cooperation between the European Commission and national regulatory authorities to ensure coherent, effective and complementary enforcement. However, the practical arrangements for cooperation will only be decided later. A practical arrangement should be based on case information, case allocation and case resolution.

ESMA risk assessment update: Market environment deteriorates further

June 9, 2022--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EU securities markets regulator, today updates its risk assessment to account for the impacts on financial markets of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the deteriorating economic environment.

The risk to ESMA's overall remit remains at the highest level, with political event risk, surging inflation and jumps in market volatility negatively impacting the outlook.

Following the invasion and the resulting sanctions, funds and investors with exposures to Russian assets have faced substantial valuation issues. There has been significant asset repricing, with riskier assets falling in value (particularly equities, corporate bonds and emerging market debt).

Fragmentation risk in the euro area: no easy way out for the European Central Bank

June 8, 2022--This paper was provided by the Policy Department for Economic, Scientific and Quality of Life Policies at the request of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON) ahead of the Monetary Dialogue with the ECB President on 20 June 2022.
The ECB is about to enter the tightening part of the monetary policy cycle.

Unlike in the easing part of the cycle, when the two objectives of monetary and financial stability are generally jointly served by the same policy, ECB policy interest rates hikes to tame inflation pose a risk of financial fragmentation in the euro area. Some countries might experience a significant widening of their spreads not necessarily driven by fundamentals. This fragmentation could put a strain on the ability of those countries to borrow.

New HANetf-ETC on Xetra: for the first-time direct access to EU CO2 emission certificates

June 7, 2022-Since Tuesday, a new exchange-traded commodity issued by HANetf in cooperation with SparkChange is tradable on Xetra and via Börse Frankfurt.
The Spark Change Physical Carbon EUA ETC offers investors direct access to carbon dioxide emission certificates of the European Union (EUA) for the first-time by replicating the spot price of physical emission certificates. The ETC is physically hedged by holding the emission allowances.

Emissions allowance trading serves as an instrument to mitigate climate change and is used to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Companies that emit carbon dioxide (CO2) must hold certificates equal to their emissions by obtaining them directly from the EU or buying them from other companies. The number of emission certificates emitted by the EU is limited.

Retail Investing Surge Cushions Economic Downturn and Calls for Adequate Reforms

June 1, 2022--Over the last two years, health-related restrictions and economic shutdowns had unforeseen effects on European capital markets. An increase in disposable income available for EU households to invest, and at least four and a half million[1] previously inactive EU savers now investing in the real economy and trading in financial instruments, has created a new generation of "retail" investors in the EU.

What's more, is that these developments came on the back of increased investor activism (and interest in shareholder engagement) and in the wake of disruptive FinTech business models that make investing a much more attractive and accessible proposition for EU households, bringing them closer to capital markets.
