Michel Barnier, Member Of The European Commission, Responsible For Internal Market And Services - Turning A Corner In Financial Services - Closing Remarks At The EUROFI High Level Seminar 2014
Ladies and gentlemen,
My thanks to Jacques de Larosière and to Didier Cahen for inviting me to close this year's EUROFI High Level Seminar.
As usual, it has acted as a platform to exchange ideas; brought together many respected speakers from both industry and public authorities; and given us plenty of food for thought.
Before we start, I would like to pay tribute to Jurgen HOLMQUIST whom many of you knew and respected. He was my first Director General in 2010 and I admired him greatly. He died suddenly on Friday and our thoughts are with his family.

Warwick Business School Associate Professor Of Finance Dr. Roman Kozhan Comments On FBI Probe Into High-Speed Trading
Commenting on the FBI probe into high-speed trading on US stock markets, Warwick Business School Associate Professor of Finance, Dr Roman Kozhan said: “There may be two possible aspects here. First question is whether or not high-frequency traders manipulate the markets. You can do it, possibly, by sending false signals to the market participants and expecting to turn their actions into profit a few seconds or milliseconds later. One of several possible ways of doing this is ‘flash trading’. There is a possibility of increasing market volatility and destabilising the market by adopting these sorts of strategies."

[Questions and answers]
- Q.
-
With regard to Bitcoin, I believe the Cabinet today approved a written reply to the Memorandum on Questions submitted by a DPJ member of the House of Councilors. There have been calls even within the ruling party for regulation of Bitcoin, so please let us hear your opinion on the future prospects for regulation.
- A.
-
A written reply to the Memorandum on Questions has been approved by the Cabinet, and this will be made publicly available after the Chief Cabinet Secretary has held his press conference; until then, I can only answer questions within a limited scope. Despite this written reply, though, the relevant ministries and agencies are still in the process of gathering information on Bitcoin. We do not yet have a full grasp on the nature and status of Bitcoin, so at the present stage we are trying to acquire these.

Opening statement:
The Cabinet has approved the Bill to Partially Amend the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act Etc. and the Bill to Partially Amend the Insurance Business Act Etc. The first bill, the Bill to Partially Amend the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act Etc., contains measures for bolstering the supply of risk money as called for under the “JAPAN Revitalization Strategy” and other policies, necessary measures for enhancing trust in Japan’s financial and capital markets following, for example, cases of the misselling of funds in recent years, and so on. The other bill, the Bill to Partially Amend the Insurance Business Act Etc., reflects the fact that business conditions for insurance companies are undergoing great changes, and contains necessary measures for promoting more appropriate solicitation practices by insurance companies etc. and helping them to develop their businesses smoothly. I hope that these bills will be debated and passed by the Diet swiftly.
