Summary of the news: 

Although Regulation Law was born from the notion "sector", constant interferences between sectors and frequent interactions between some sectors and more general questions common to different sectors, make interregulation necessary. Compliance Law being the extension of Regulation Law, this interregulation mechanism is also necessary in Compliance Law. 

This interregulation can take many legal paths like letters exchanges between regulators, the creation of a network of regulators and supervisors at the world level or about some specific question or the adoption of a "cooperation protocol" as the AMF (French Financial Market Regulator) and the AFA (French Anticorruption Agency) did on 16th of September 2020 to reinforce their respective fight against corruption, against market abuses and for the protection of investors. 

This cooperation protocol between the AFA and the AMF has the following subjects:

• A more efficient methodology concerning the research and the analysis of corruption and market abuses.
• A more efficient prevention of corruption and market abuses.
• A better capacity to give recommendations of new regulations to the Legislator.
• A more rigorous monitoring of international works on the topic. 
• A more coherent information for the public.

Are regulators the new teachers?
