Earlier this week, ISLA submitted its response to the targeted consultation on the integration of EU Capital Markets, which forms part of the broader Savings and Investment Union Strategy. This broad base consultation aims to gather stakeholder feedback on a number of potential obstacles to financial market integration across the EU. Such barriers could trap liquidity and hinder supply which are not only integral to our markets but necessary if the SIU is to be successful in boosting the EU economy by improving the way the EU financial system mobilises savings towards productive investments, offering more and better financial opportunities for both citizens and businesses.

Many of the themes covered in this responses also form part of our 2024-2029 Manifesto which puts forward key suggestions to how policy makers can unlock the EU competitiveness through better mobilisation of capital market activities including securities finance. Read the manifesto here.
