"Mr President, Ms Ford, we have naturally had many opportunities to talk, in both your committee and in plenary, about this entire regulatory agenda, which I mentioned in my answer to Mr Cancian. Naturally, as part of that agenda – which I did not invent as it came from the G20 – decisions were taken before I joined the European Commission on Basel for the banks, on Solvency for insurance, and on the revision of the Pension Funds Directive. It is my job, with you and the Council of Ministers, to put this agenda in place as intelligently and speedily as possible, without improvising. This is true for the measures you are referring to and for all of the measures affecting the 8 300 European banks. I am therefore happy to continue the dialogue with you and with the rapporteurs you mentioned. My texts are on the table. I tried to draft them as precisely as possible in all areas.
I am nevertheless worried, Ms Ford, about the cumulative effect of all of these texts, particularly when they concern three key investment tools: banks, which finance 75% of the economy of European regions, pension funds and insurance companies. I am therefore watching things very closely – indeed, in a few weeks, we are going to be publishing a comprehensive study on the cumulative impact of all of these measures – and I am very keen to safeguard the investment capacity, especially the long-term investment capacity, of these three sectors: insurance, pension funds and banks. However, with regard to the point that you raise, I am, of course, happy to continue the dialogue with the rapporteurs concerned."@en1
