The article argues that both administrative and criminal tools are necessary for the protection of EU financial interests and that the mechanisms of cooperation between OLAF and the EPPO are suitable to foster a functioning collaboration. However, criticisms still emerge, both on the functioning of OLAF, and as regards operational activities of the EPPO and its cooperation with national prosecutors. Guarantees for private parties involved in administrative and criminal investigations cannot be ignored, and several shortcomings in the system of judicial protection need to be addressed. Effectiveness of the system and protection of guarantees should not be considered separate, especially in the context of the challenges that Next Generation EU (NGEU) raises for the protection of EU financial interests. Guarantees such as legal certainty and independence of the judiciary, are basic tenets of the rule of law, which, as set out in the Conditionality Regulation and further clarified by the ECJ, is in itself a condition for effectively protecting EU financial interests.

Although centred on the European Central Bank, the international representation of the European System of Central Banks also relies on the national central banks. This article analyses the requirement of unity of the international representation of the ESCB, assesses the current means through which it is implemented, and identifies areas of possible improvement in the coordination of the respective international activities of the European Central Bank and of national central banks. The article argues that the principle of sincere cooperation can play a significant role, both within and beyond Article 6 of the ESCB/ECB Statute. Although the existing soft-law arrangements within the ESCB are more effective than for the EMU in general, improvements are possible regarding the conclusion and implementation of international cooperation agreements. Stronger synergies with the activities of national central banks would also help the emergence of a more proactive and influential international cooperation strategy.
