The Italian Securities Commission (Consob) and the Italian National Anti-Corruption Authority (ANAC) issued a joint announcement confirming the signing of a memorandum of understanding to tighten cooperation within their respective remits on market transparency and corruption prevention, centred on joint exchanges of information, data and technical consultation. The protocol is designed to support more coordinated oversight where the authorities’ mandates intersect, including the proper fulfilment of information obligations by entities subject to their supervision under public procurement, transparency and anti-corruption rules as well as financial markets regulation. It provides for mutual requests for opinions and reciprocal consultation on matters of common interest, including listed public companies, and for collaboration on outreach activities, scientific initiatives and staff training. A joint technical working table established under the protocol will coordinate activities of shared interest, share information on relevant initiatives and create dedicated working groups, while also addressing implementation and any modifications or additions to the agreement and promoting further forms of cooperation.
