Esma | Governos querem limitar riscos oferecidos pelos bancos | Economia | DW.DE | 20.11 Os dez maiores bancos do mundo são responsáveis por 40% da atividade econômica mundial. Os ativos do Deutsche Bank no ano passado, por exemplo, representaram 84% do PIB alemão. E apenas um quinto desse dinheiro foi proveniente de atividades tradicionais de crédito. A maior parte vem de bancos de investimento, o que incluei apostas de risco nos mercados financeiros. Os negócios entre essas instituições ocorre de modo bastante inseguro. Mesmo que um banco faça um empréstimo ou se envolva em determinados negócios por conta própria ou em nome de seus clientes, ele não é o dono do dinheiro que usa.

EFIGE Parlement européen : Affaires économiques et monétaires Le Parlement européen est l'un des grands acteurs de la scène politique européenne et la commission des affaires économiques et monétaires (ECON) est aux avant-postes de l'activité du Parlement. Elle est chargée de dossiers tels que les politiques économique et monétaire de l'Union européenne, la fiscalité et la concurrence, la liberté de circulation des capitaux et la réglementation des services financiers (banques, sociétés d'assurance, fonds de pension, gestion d'actifs/de placements, comptabilité, système monétaire et financier international, etc.). En outre, la plus large part des travaux du Parlement étant conduits dans les commissions, c'est à la commission ECON qu'incombe l'essentiel du travail parlementaire sur ces thèmes économiques et monétaires majeurs. La commission ECON contribue dans une large mesure à l'élaboration de la législation européenne, puisque le Parlement est, avec le Conseil, colégislateur dans la plupart des champs d'action de l'Union européenne.

Optimism over Brazil hybrid rule change | LatinFinance A feature that makes it tougher for Brazilian banks to sell Basel III-compliant hybrids might be changed, say market sources Brazil's central bank is considering changing a regulation that has held back banks' sales of hybrid tier one instruments, sources say. Brazil's version of Basel III rules, the global framework that governs bank capital, does not allow hybrids to offer a coupon reset. But the country's largest banks are lobbying the regulator to change the rules - and they could have success, said Enrico Bentivegna, partner at Pinheiro Neto. Coupon resets, common in European bank capital instruments, mean a security's interest rate is changed at the first call date to reflect movements in the underlying benchmark. The features give investors some comfort over an instrument's long-term yield if it is not called at the first opportunity.
