L'UE E LA "CRISI": ECCO IL PACCHETTO INFO COMPLETO DELLE PROPOSTE

Financial Crisis - Europe's response

The global economy is facing a financial crisis involving banking systems, stock markets and the flow of credit. Seeking common strategies to solve the difficulties, European institutions are coordinating national responses and making recommendations to improve the financial system.

European leaders have defined a common approach for restoring confidence in the financial industry and preserving economic growth. Reform must be “all-encompassing” and should include more international supervision to ensure transparency and accountability.
