Značaj otvaranja poglavlja o finansijskim uslugama u cilju pristupanja Evropskoj uniji

Abstract

The harmonization of legislation with the acquis communautaire enables the achievement of financial stability, a greater degree of integration into European economic flows and, consequently, a higher level of protection of service users, which confirms the importance of opening the Chapter 9 on Financial Services to the Republic of Serbia. The field of financial services is comprehensive and includes legal rules on a range of issues relevant to the functioning of the financial market, indicating the complexity and the potential for numerous challenges to arise during negotiations. The Republic of Serbia has harmonized a big part of its legislation in the field of financial services with European Union regulation by adopting numerous reform laws and implementing directives, and after opening this chapter, it is expected, first of all, to intensify the process of their implementation, but also to upgrade the existing legal regulations and adopt new ones. The paper will present the importance of a stable financial environment, protect service users and strengthen investor confidence, as well as all the benefits of creating the preconditions for inclusion in the European Union's single market.
