The EPPO and banking supervisory authorities
In the European arena, the EPPO will have to develop links with banking supervisory authorities, which have a long-standing tradition of cooperation with judicial authorities. In the EU supervisory banking authorities play an important role to provide information and where appropriate technical expertise to national prosecutors. Such role is supported by various provisions in the banking and anti-money laundering EU and national legislative framework. In this context, Banca d’Italia has a long-standing tradition for cooperation with judicial authorities. The presentation will illustrate the grounds for cooperation between supervisory authorities and criminal prosecutors and how such cooperation developed supported by the European legislative framework. It is expected that EPPO will have to establish similar links with supervisory authorities.
Participants: Benedetta Ubertazzi; Fabio Recine.
