The Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) supervises the Belgian financial sector and strives to ensure the honest and equitable treatment of financial consumers and the integrity of the financial markets. Since 1 April 2011 the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) is one of the two authorities, along with the National Bank of Belgium (NBB), entrusted with the supervision of t
he Belgian financial sector. As a result of the reform of financial supervision in Belgium that took effect on that date, the FSMA received a new challenge and the powers necessary to supervise, among other things, the conduct of financial institutions and the products they sell. It aims at the fair and orderly operation and the transparency of the financial markets by ensuring that listed companies provide correct and complete information. It promotes proper provision of financial services by verifying that financial institutions comply with rules of conduct, by supervising financial products, financial service providers and supplementary pensions, and by contributing to improving the education of financial consumers. In this way the FSMA seeks to ensure that the financial system deserves the trust of its users. Supervision of financial markets and listed companies
