Commission adopted the annual “European Financial Stability and Integration Review” (EFSIR), which complements the first status report for the implementation of the Action Plan on the Capital Markets Union (CMU). The JRC has supported this review by analysing the sensitivity of European stock markets to local and external shocks and measuring the extent of stock and bond markets integration in Europe.
The Capital Market Union Action Plan sets out key measures to achieve a true single market for capital in the European Union, with the aim of mobilising capital to achieve economic growth and create jobs. It also aims at promoting financial stability by facilitating a more diversified set of funding channels. The European Financial Stability and Integration Review (EFSIR) provides a general view on how financial markets performed in 2015 and identifies indicators for monitoring trends in capital market and macroeconomic developments that are relevant to the key objectives.
