Description
This panel will explore the prospects for an EU Capital Markets Union asking whether regulatory harmonisation failed and can succeed. The panellists will also focus on the legal and non-legal barriers (including regulatory, infrastructural, culture and mentality). In addition, it will be discussed whether the U.S. is rather a threat or an opportunity for the EU Capital Markets Union.
