With the adoption of Regulation 2017/1939, the European Union created a legal framework for the creation of a European Public Prosecutor’s Office that will prosecute criminal offences against the financial interests of the European Union. In a number of issues that arise in connection with the forthcoming operation of this new EU body, one of the most important is certainly the issue of its independence. The paper first presents some observations on the independence of the State Attorney’s Office in national legal systems, and then analyses the independence of the EPPO itself. The position of the EPPO in relation to other EU bodies, and in particular in relation to the Member States, is particularly emphasised. In order to try to answer the question of the independence of the EPPO as a whole, it is necessary to consider interrelationships within the EPPO itself, and between the central (European) and national (European Delegated Prosecutor) levels.
