UK Finance represents over 300 of the leading firms providing finance, banking, markets and payments-related services in or from the UK. We carry out activities in the EU that directly or indirectly influence the formulation or implementation of banking and financial services policy and the decision-making processes of the EU institutions.
We follow a EU initiatives affecting the provision of banking and financial services from outside the EU. From time to time we may seek to influence specific EU legislative or policy proposals. These include EU policy affecting "third countries". In the past year this has included CRD 6 Article 21c (Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Directive 2013/36/EU as regards supervisory powers, sanctions, third-country branches, and environmental, social and governance risks, and amending Directive 2014/59/EU (2021/0341 (COD)) (“CRD6”) ) and EMIR 3.0 (proposals relating to European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) (Regulation (EU) No 648/2012))Address

Although several members of staff have spent time on activities described under heading 9 during 2023, all of them have spent very much less than 10% of their time on such work. Therefore, the automatically calculated FTE figure - 0.6 - is misleading. In fact we estimate that the FTE figure for our organisation is around 0.2.

Meetings
Meetings

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.
