"This report calls for measures to ensure we have a safer and more stable banking system across Europe. Earlier research has found that excessive complexity and risk taking in the banking system, along with inadequate capital, all contributed significantly to the financial crisis. This own-initiative report calls, among other measures, for the separation of banks’ retail activities from the more risky trading and investment activities, for trading and investment banks to bear the costs of their activities and for longer deferral of bankers’ bonuses, with greater personal liability for board members when things go wrong. I supported this report, as I believe that structural reform of Europe’s banks is essential to ensure that retail customers are protected from future crises and bailouts resulting from risky trading activity. I am surprised that the Conservatives voted against this report today, as it includes many measures proposed by their own government for banking reform in the UK."@en1
