The European Stability Mechanism is an intergovernmental organisation established by member states of the euro area in 2012. Its mission is to enable the countries of the euro area to avoid and overcome financial crises and to maintain long-term financial stability and prosperity.

Malta is a founding member of the European Stability Mechanism which replaced the previous European Financial Stability Facility. Both funds helped the eurozone member countries overcome the Euro crises.
