About this ebook

The legal regime and the day-to-day supervision activities conducted by the Autoriteit Financiële Markten (AFM) and De Nederlandsche Bank N.V. (DNB) are extensive and consistent with international expectations, but the supervisors’ operational independence could be strengthened. While the AFM and the DNB (the supervisors) may carry on their day-to-day activities independently from political and industry intervention, the perception of their independence may be impaired owing to the extensive authority to the Ministry of Finance (MoF) to intervene. The supervisors have the key powers necessary to carry out their responsibilities, but some additional powers and transparency (such as clarifying the causes for the removal of the governing boards of the supervisors) would assist in ensuring they have the flexibility to meet fast-developing issues and foster greater investor confidence in the system.
