We have agreed on the objectives of a strategy, &quot;the Lecce Framework&quot;, to create a comprehensive framework, building on existing initiatives, to identify and fill regulatory gaps and foster the broad international consensus needed for rapid implementation.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The Lecce Framework recognizes that there is a wide range of instruments, both existing and under development, which have a common thread related to propriety, integrity and transparency and classifies them into five categories: corporate governance, market integrity, financial regulation and supervision, tax cooperation, and transparency of macroeconomic policy and data. <\/p>\n<p>Specific issues covered include, inter alia, executive compensation, regulation of systemically important institutions, credit rating agencies, accounting standards, the cross-border exchange of information, bribery, tax havens, non-cooperative jurisdictions, money laundering and the financing of terrorism, and the quality and dissemination of economic and financial data. International institutions and fora have already developed a significant body of work addressing a number of important issues in these areas, but, in many cases, the initiatives suffer from insufficient country participation and\/or commitment, the G8 said.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\"><span class=\"st_tag internal_tag\">Alex<\/span> Akesson<\/span><\/p>\n<p>  <span class=\"Apple-style-span\"> <\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<p>Edtior for <span class=\"st_tag internal_tag\"><a title=\"Posts tagged with hedgeco\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hedgeco.net\/news\/tag\/hedgeco\">HedgeCo<\/a><\/span>.Net<br \/>Email: <u><span class=\"st_tag internal_tag\">alex<\/span>@<span class=\"st_tag internal_tag\"><a title=\"Posts tagged with hedgeco\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hedgeco.net\/news\/tag\/hedgeco\">hedgeco<\/a><\/span>.net<\/u><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"st_tag internal_tag\"><a title=\"Posts tagged with hedgeco\" class=\"st_tag internal_tag\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hedgeco.net\/news\/tag\/hedgeco\">HedgeCo<\/a><\/span>.Net is a premier <span class=\"st_tag internal_tag\">hedge fund<\/span> database and community for qualified and accredited investors only.
