(3) In November 2008 the Commission instructed a High-Level Group chaired by Jacques de Larosière to make recommendations on how to strengthen European supervisory arrangements with a view to better protecting Union citizens and rebuilding trust in the financial system. In its final report presented on 25 February 2009 (the ‘de Larosière Report’), the High-Level Group recommended that the supervisory framework be strengthened to reduce the risk and severity of future financial crises. It recommended far-reaching reforms to the supervisory structure of the financial sector within the Union. The de Larosière Report also recommended that a European system of financial supervision be created, comprising three European supervisory authorities — one for each of the banking, the securities and the insurance and the occupational pensions sectors — and a European systemic risk council.
