: a função de supervisão: uma análise no contexto pós-crise

Abstract

The Portuguese financial system was confronted by the effects of the economic and financial crisis that shook the world in 2007. Along with all of the great potencies worldwide, the European Union has also adopted measures to strengthen the regulatory and supervisory mechanisms. Within each EU country, the respective central bank has played a key role in the supervisory and regulatory functions of the national systems. In fact, the evolution of the Portuguese financial system was influenced by the action of the Bank of Portugal, in harmony with the European Union action. The Bank of Portugal committed efforts to protect all of the economic agents. The financial system became more solid and consistent and the effects of the crisis began to be gradually dissipated.
