The Swedish Wire – Sweden, which holds the rotating EU presidency, is consulting European capitals and “most of them are positive” about the idea, said Roberta Alenius, spokeswoman for Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt.
“The prime minister wants a summit if it is really needed, and if it gives a common position before the Pittsburgh meeting” on September 24-25, she added.
EU member states have already agreed among themselves to boost surveillance of the banking and insurance sectors as well as hedge funds.
