SNS/SHoF Finance Panel: The Future of Europe’s Financial Markets
Over the past decade, the idea of a Capital Markets Union (CMU) within the EU has been the subject of extensive discussions, with various proposals aimed at harmonizing regulations across member states. Despite these efforts, progress has been limited, and significant challenges remain.
A seminar to gain expert insights and participate in the discussion on the future of Europe's financial markets.
Nicolas Véron, Senior Fellow at Bruegel (Brussels) and the Peterson Institute for International Economics (Washington), opened with an overview of the lessons learned over the past ten years. He also shared his perspective on the future of financial market supervision in the EU, including a recent proposal to strengthen ESMA’s (European Securities and Markets Authority) role in oversight to enhance market efficiency. Véron has been actively engaged in the debate on financial market regulation for several years and has previously been a valued guest in the Finance Panel.
