EU Fact Sheets - WTO Agreement on Agriculture - 23-05-2025

The domestic support systems in agriculture are governed by the Agreement on Agriculture (AoA), which entered into force in 1995 and was negotiated during the Uruguay Round (1986-1994). The long-term goal of the AoA is to establish a fair and market-oriented agricultural trading system and to initiate a reform process through the negotiations of commitments on support and protection, and through the establishment of strengthened and more operationally effective rules and discipline. Agriculture is therefore special because the sector has its own agreement, whose provisions prevail. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

EU Fact Sheets - European System of Financial Supervision - 23-05-2025

The European System of Financial Supervision is a system of EU agencies that aims to ensure consistent and coherent micro- and macro-prudential financial supervision in the EU. It includes the national supervisors, the three European supervisory authorities (EBA, ESMA and EIOPA) and the European Systemic Risk Board. There is a separate fact sheet (‘Financial Services Policy’) on the material rules that apply to the financial sector. After the ESFS had been created, the European Central Bank, as part of the Single Supervisory Mechanism, was appointed to directly supervise the largest banks within the Banking Union (2.6.5). For the material rules that apply to the financial sector, see the fact sheet on the EU financial services policy (2.6.13). Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

However, some challenges are common to all Member States – green and digital transitions, skills shortages and mismatches in the labour market – and thus call for joint responses, with countries working together and learning from each other.

The common fisheries policy (CFP) has come a long way since it was first formulated in the Treaty of Rome. Initially linked to the common agricultural policy, it gradually developed a separate identity. The core area of the CFP – conservation and management of fish stocks – was launched in 1983. The policy was reformed in 1992, 2002 and 2013. The current framework, resulting from the 2013 reform, is aimed at ensuring that EU fisheries are sustainable – environmentally, economically and socially. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP

2 men and a woman arrested for alleged involvement in impersonating MAS staff, scamming victim of nearly $100k

Two men and a woman were arrested on Thursday (May 22) for their suspected involvement in a government official impersonation scam. The suspects involved were a 38-year-old man, a 22-year-old man and a 39-year-old woman.  The victim was a 68-year-old woman who had lost about $98,000 from the scam, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) said, adding that they were alerted on May 21. She had been deceived by scammers posing as staff from the Monetary Authority of Singapore, who convinced the victim that she had been implicated in a money-laundering offence and was required to surrender her money for investigations, SPF said. After ground enquiries and follow-up investigations, officers from the police's Anti-Scam Command identified and arrested three suspects the next day in the vicinity of Bendemeer Road, shortly after the victim had handed her money from one of the men. The 38-year-old man was reportedly tasked to give the cash to the 22-year-old woman, who was loitering in the area where the transaction took place when he received the money from the victim.
