Towards a unified supervision framework: Ensuring the success of the Savings and Investments Union
In a context of geopolitical instability and accelerating climate transition, the EU faces mounting pressure to channel its vast savings towards strategic investment. Yet the persistent fragmentation of capital markets continues to constrain its financial capacity. With the Commission having already presented the Savings and Investment Union (SIU), there is growing recognition that supervisory convergence is essential for its success. While comparisons are often drawn with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, a more practical reference point may be the EU’s own banking union model, where major cross-border institutions are subject to centralised oversight with the support of national authorities. Without similar ambition in capital markets supervision, the SIU will struggle to deliver on its promise.
Against this backdrop, CEPS, ECMI and the Association Europe-Finances-Régulations (AEFR) are pleased to invite you to a timely policy dialogue to examine concrete initiatives that can move the supervisory debate forward. Join us as we unpack the practical, institutional, and political implications of strengthening EU-level supervision, and explore how Europe can deliver on the promise of an integrated capital market that channels savings into strategic investments, reduces compliance burdens, and safeguards financial stability.
