About Us

The EU Roundtable of Financial Centres is an initiative to promote the creation of a common EU financial market as well as strengthening cooperation and exchange regarding financial services between EU member states.


Eleven organisations representing EU financial centers and federations from eight EU member countries signed a Memorandum of Understanding.

Signatories have agreed to jointly pursue the following objectives:

Improve the competitiveness and efficiency of the EU’s financial industry, particularly in the areas of the Capital Markets Union, as well as digitalisation, sustainability and other current and future challenges facing financial services.

Provide EU financial centers and their representative organisations with a unified voice.

Strengthen public understanding of the importance and positive role financial services plays within the EU.

Support the exchange of best practices between EU Roundtable Members.

Facilitate the development of dialogue with major financial centers outside the EU

Build communications channels with EU institutions, as well as European financial industry associations and NGOs

The EU Roundtable serves as a Regional Chapter of the World Alliance of International Financial Centers (“WAIFC”).
