A not-for-profit organization created in 2000 chaired by Jacques de Larosière • Platform for exchanges between the financial services industry and the public authorities addressing issues related to the evolution of financial regulation and supervision • Main activities • The main objectives of Eurofi are to help industry and public decision-makers reach a common understanding of possible evolutions required in the regulation and supervision of financial services and to open the way to legislative or industry-driven solutions.Eurofi acts as a catalyst for the market and as a neutral go-between connecting diverse financial industry players and the public authorities. • Eurofi has two main types of activities conducted by Didier Cahen, Secretary General of Eurofi, Jean-Marie Andrèsand Marc Truchet, Senior Fellows: • Research and documentation: • Assessments and proposals taking into account economic, risk and end-user impacts, prepared with the support of cross-sectoral working groups comprising members of Eurofi. • Topics addressed include prospective and currently debated issues related to financial regulation and supervision in an EU and global context, as well as industry trends. • Regular interactions organized with representatives of the public authorities and other stakeholders (e.g. end-users, experts) to discuss and fine-tune assessments and proposals. • Events and exchanges of views: • Eurofi Financial Forum: a yearly public international Forum gathering together industry leaders and EU and non-EU public decision makers for high level discussions on the major regulatory projects in the financial area, as well as informal networking. • High level seminars and workshops organised regularly to facilitate exchanges of views on regulatory issues between the members of Eurofi and key public decision makers: for example high level seminars organized in 2012 with the Danish EU Presidency and in 2011 with the Presidency of the G20 to address regulatory topics on the agenda of the G20.These international events are organised with the support of Christian Hawkins. • Main topics currently addressed • Current evolutions of the prudential and regulatory framework of banks and insurance companies: fine-tuning of CRD IV, impacts of CRD IV and Solvency II on the financing of the economy, structural reforms of the banking sector (Liikanen report),  addressing appropriately the systemic importance of diverse financial institutions (banks, market infrastructures, insurance companies),  regulation of the shadow banking sector, EU crisis management framework, conditions for a smooth evolution towards a more  market-led EU economy, risk disclosure practices to favour financial stability… • Capital markets and investment products regulations: regulation of securities, derivatives and commodities markets and trading and post-trading infrastructures (MiFID review, CSD regulation, EMIR), evolutions in asset management regulations (AIFMD, ETFs, specific fund regulations, possible evolutions of UCITS…), investor protection regulation (PRIPs, MiFID, IMD…) and fund depositary rules (UCITS V), extra-territoriality and cross-border access rules… • Optimizing the EU financial services internal market: addressing the increasing fragmentation of EU financial activities prompted by the crisis, conditions for enabling a sustainable SEPA business case, review of the IORP directive, regulation of CRAs… EUROFI MEMBERS The membership of Eurofi comprises many leading global and European financial institutions from different sectors of the industry (banking, insurance, market infrastructures, asset management, credit rating agencies…).
