Abstract/Description:

The chapter addresses the far-reaching changes that have occurred in the institutional landscape of EU administrative entities over the last decade. It discusses the agency-related amendments of the Treaty of Lisbon and subsequent constitution building through the EU judiciary. It particularly highlights the judgment of the European Court of Justice of January 2014, rejecting the action of annulment of the United Kingdom against the EU regulation establishing the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), a particularly powerful EU agency to promote re-regulation and enhanced oversight of financial markets.
