The politics of EU capital markets

This event, '‘The politics of EU capital markets’ marks the launch of our annual benchmarking report on the size, depth and growth potential of EU capital markets.

We are delighted to be hosting guest speakers:

• Alexandra Jour-Schroeder, Deputy director general, DG FISMA

• Sébastien Raspiller, Assistant secretary for the financial sector, French Treasury

• Brita Hammar, Deputy director-general, Head of division, Swedish Ministry of Finance

• David Wright, Chairman of Eurofi and former director general of DG MARKT

The main theme of this year’s report will be ‘the politics of capital markets’: identifying the political obstacles at an EU and national level to reforming capital markets, and how to encourage European and particularly national authorities to take some of the tough political decisions to drive more growth and integration across EU capital markets.

We expect participants to be a combination of government officials and policymakers from across Europe, and senior executives and policy specialists from across the industry.
