Consultation on Reforming the Structure of the EU Banking Sector

The EACT has responded to the European Commission's consultation on reforming the structure of the EU banking sector, in which a possible separation of retail and investment banking activities is envisaged. The EACT believes that any legislative action in this area should be postponed and broadly favours an approach that seeks to finalise the current initiatives in the area of financial services legislation, followed by a proper assessment of the initiatives' impact on economic activity. An orderly approach could then follow to the introduction of legislative measures to reform the structure of the banking sector.
