Standing Committees

Standing Committees and other bodies

Much of ESMA’s work is supported by Standing Committees (SC), working groups and task forces, which draw together senior experts from National Competent Authorities (NCAs). The different ESMA SCs are established on a permanent basis. Each Committee is normally chaired by senior representatives of NCAs and supported by ESMA staff who act as rapporteurs. All SCs also have consultative working groups made up of external stakeholder representatives.

ESMA’s SCs prepare the technical work on all areas of ESMA’s activities. However, the ultimate decision making body of ESMA is the Board of Supervisors, whereas the Management Board deals with the management of the Authority.
