The study examines the contradictions arising from the implementation of prevention as a priority area of supervisory and control activities. It highlights the risks of formalism and the “quasi-supervisory” use of preventive measures, stemming from imperfections in performance indicators and organizational mechanisms. As a solution, the article substantiates the role of collegial bodies within supervisory authorities as a key management tool for fulfilling the preventive function. Using a structural-competency approach, it argues that the systemic regulation of the status of these collegial bodies can ensure the alignment of goals, methodologies, and effectiveness assessment for prevention, thereby establishing it as an independent area of work.
