 ABOUT EUROFI
The European think tank dedicated to financial services
! A not-for-profit organization chaired by Jacques de Larosire
! A platform for exchanges between the financial services industry and the public authorities addressing issues related to the evolution of financial regulation
and supervision and the economic and monetary context impacting the EU financial sector
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 that may enhance the safety and effectiveness
of the EU financial sector and its contribution to economic growth.
Eurofi acts in a general interest perspective, facilitating exchanges of views between diverse financial
industry players and the public authorities. These exchanges are prepared by objective fact finding
and issue analyses.
Eurofi has two main types of activities conducted by Didier Cahen, Secretary General of Eurofi,
Jean-Marie Andrs and Marc Truchet, Senior Fellows:
Events and meetings:
! Eurofi organizes annually two major international events (the High Level Seminar in March /
April and the Financial Forum in September) gathering industry leaders and EU and non-EU public
decision makers for discussions on the major on-going regulatory projects in the financial area and the
role of the financial sector in fostering growth as well as informal networking.
! These events are regularly organised in association with the EU Presidencies in parallel with informal
ECOFIN councils and in some cases with the G20 Presidencies. They are organised with the support
of Virginie Denis and her team.
! Additional workshops involving the members of Eurofi are set up to exchange views on regulatory
issues. Bilateral meetings are also regularly organised with representatives of the public authorities
and other stakeholders (e.g. end-users, experts) to fine-tune assessments and proposals.
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).
Researchand documentation:
! Assessments and proposals taking into account economic, risk and end-user impacts are prepared with
the support of cross-sectoral working groups comprising members of Eurofi.
! Topics addressed include prospective and on-going regulatory proposals at the EU and global levels,
industry trends as well as the impacts for the financial sector of the economic challenges the EU is facing.
Main topics currently addressed

securities, derivatives and commodities markets and infrastructures, recovery and resolution of CCPs,
