For a Europe of compliance.

Summary The editor's website states: "Compliance mechanisms consist in internalizing in certain companies the obligation to achieve goals of general interest set by public authorities. The latter control the Ex Ante reorganization that this implies for these companies and sanction Ex Post the eventual inadequacy of the companies, which become transparent as a result. This new mode of governance establishes a continuum between Regulation, Supervision, Compliance (2017) and renews the links between Companies, Regulators and Judges (2018). In each case, the political dimension of Compliance appears. This is why we must now think about "building the Europe of Compliance". The contributions in this book have the common objective of reflecting on the way in which Europe not only receives an initially American corpus but also reconstructs it, or even thinks of it differently. In particular, insofar as it fits into the European project itself, supports it, consolidates it and promotes it, and can thus make the Europe of Compliance an example for a world that de jure and de facto is not reduced to the United States. It is therefore a scientific and technical subject, but also a political project, integrated into the perspective of European construction, not only economic (in its articulation with the Banking Union and the Union of Capital Markets) but also, and above all, integrating goals that go beyond this circulation and convergence of interests to concern itself with goals such as the preservation of the environment or concern for the people. It is a matter of State. In this respect, Compliance Law, as developed by the United States, is certainly a model but can be surpassed by a higher ambition, which Europe can carry and which can carry Europe".
