(5) In the conclusions following its meeting of 18 and 19 June 2009, the European Council recommended that a European system of financial supervisors comprising three new European supervisory authorities be established. It also recommended that the system should aim to upgrade the quality and consistency of national supervision, strengthening the oversight of cross-border groups, establishing a single European rulebook applicable to all financial institutions in the internal market. It emphasised that the European supervisory authorities (the ‘ESAs’) should also enjoy supervisory powers in respect of credit rating agencies, and invited the Commission to prepare concrete proposals as to how the European System of Financial Supervision (‘ESFS’) could play a strong role in crisis situations.
