The Role of Financial Markets for the Future of Europe | A Conversation with Commissioner Albuquerque

Financial services are at the heart of Europe’s competitiveness agenda. As highlighted by the Draghi Report, strengthening the Capital Markets Union and enhancing the efficiency of financial intermediation are crucial steps to foster investment, growth, and innovation across the EU. These reforms will shape the opportunities and responsibilities for the next generation of leaders in business, policy, and finance. 

The meeting with Commissioner Albuquerque will be the occasion to gain first-hand insights into the EU’s strategy for financial markets and to engage directly with one of the key policymakers shaping this ambitious agenda.
