EU should deepen cooperation with Asia in financial services

Petr Ježek has approached Johnathan Hill, the European Commissioner for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union, encouraging him to seek closer cooperation with Asia in the field of financial services.

In a letter to Commissioner Hill on Monday, on the occasion of an EU-China summit in Brussels, Petr Ježek and the ALDE team in the ECON committee makes the case for engaging with more partners in Asia in order to deepen regulatory cooperation.

“In the volatile financial climate we face currently in Europe, we need to look outward to attract investment from other areas of the world. There is a huge growth potential in Asia and therefore I have encouraged Commissioner Hill to visit key financial centres there in order to encourage further regulatory cooperation between Asian jurisdictions and the EU. By opening our markets further we can achieve greater growth and attract vital capital to Europe,” Petr Ježek said.
