Main EU files targeted
Societe Generale proactively engages with all relevant stakeholders in the EU institutional process by providing technical expertise on banking and finance. As such, the Group regularly contributes to the consultations issued by various European bodies. In a year 2023 which has been particularly active, banks have more than ever been part of the solution and have actively engaged with EU authorities to keep financing the real economy and contributed to resilient and strong recovery. Our main areas of focus this year included: the completion of the Banking Union & prudential regulation (EU transposition of Basel III); the financial markets regulation (MIFIR, EMIR, CMU package); digital issues (Fintech, DLT-based finance, cybersecurity, data act, open finance and CBDC) and green/sustainable finance (feeding into the debates around the European Grean Deal, Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive).

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
