As part of them, the ESAs are empowered to directly interfere with the activities of financial institutions. Namely, all ESAs have been empowered to issue binding decisions on product interventions in an emergency. Additionally, ESMA was granted the possibility to intervene in exceptional circumstances within the meaning of Art. 28 of Regulation No. 236/2012, which was examined for legality by the CJEU (case C-270/12).
