In the aftermath of the last financial crisis, on both sides of the Atlantic banking supervisors were given new supervisory and enforcement powers, which are often of a substantially punitive-criminal nature. In Europe in particular, the establishment of the Single Supervisory Mechanism within the European Central Bank substantially increased centralised investigatory and sanctioning powers. This major innovation, together with the development of forms of real-time monitoring of banking (often digital) records, challenges traditional banking criminal investigations in their national-based and analogue dimension.The book offers a comprehensive account and perspective analysis of the interactions between the criminal and administrative nature of such new powers, highlighting their “punitive” overall nature and their impact on fundamental rights. Covering both the US and the EU regulatory frameworks, it presents unprecedented, trans-systemic research between criminal law and procedure, and between regulatory and administrative law, at the international, European and national level.The book also includes a rich and detailed selection of case law from the US and the European supreme courts, with a specific focus on CJEU and ECtHR decisions.

This book provides an in-depth analysis of the effectiveness of legal protection in the composite procedures in place within the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM), established to ensure an effective prudential banking supervision within the euro area. This system, in which the European Central Bank and national prudential banking supervisors closely cooperate, results in a far-reaching shared administration entailing supervisory decisions based on complex composite administrative procedures which involve both EU and national legal orders. The current system of legal protection seems not yet fully-fledged to the reality of increasingly far-reaching forms of shared administration for the implementation of EU law. This book addresses the tension between ensuring effective supervision, by means of a shared administration, and ensuring effective legal protection in composite administrative procedures. To arrive at a meaningful discussion of the SSM's far-reaching shared administration, it categorizes the composite procedures in place within the SSM in such a way that other shared administrations in fields of law such as the European Structural Funds, fisheries, and the Single Resolut

This book explores the sheer complexity of the SSM’s institutional design adopting an comprehensive approach to banking supervision. At its core, this work examines the tangible mechanisms of prudential regulation or supervision both at the European and national levels, offering a comparative analysis of ten national systems. Reflecting the results of an intensive, four-year research project that saw the collaboration of academics and practitioners, it addresses two interrelated issues. It investigates the efficacy of the shared national- and EU-level enforcement system the EU introduced in reaction to the financial and banking crisis.Secondly, it scrutinizes the role that criminal law can play in sanctioning the breaches to banking regulation.

EU enforcement authorities are on the rise, entrusted with investigating breaches of EU law by individuals and economic actors. What are the implications for legal practice of their increasing prominence? This book explores this pertinent question from a constitutional and comparative perspective. It sets out the perimeters for composite enforcement and explores the relevant issues such as the interface between criminal and administrative law enforcement, the protection of fundamental rights and legal protection, as well as the admissibility of evidence, including unlawfully obtained evidence. Given the very real implications of the authorities' investigations, this book will appeal to practitioners and scholars, in fields from criminal law to competition and banking law.
