Cross-border oversight involves the regulation and supervision of financial activities that extend across national boundaries. This regulatory coordination aims to address risks such as money laundering, terrorist financing, and market manipulation that arise from the global nature of financial systems. It requires cooperation among national authorities to ensure consistent application of rules and information sharing. The objective is to maintain financial stability and protect consumers in an interconnected economic environment.
