Abstract

This essay analyses the main steps to build the Capital Market Union by reference to the Green Paper about building a Capital Markets Union and the Action Plan on Building a Capital Markets Union, undertaken by the European Commission. Moreover, this study takes into account Europe’s priorities of economic growth and creation of jobs, examining key issues such as the access to financing of small and medium-sized enterprises, long-term investing, securitization, and Competition Law. We also examine the essential role of the European Financial Supervision System in the integration and stability of the European capital markets, considering this ambitious project as prominent to the recovery of the economy and the welfare of the entire population in Europe.

Keywords: capital markets union, capital market, financial supervision.
