Financial integration and stability: towards a more resilient single EU financial market

Frankfurt am Main, Thursday, 26 April 2012 - from 9.00 a.m. to 4.15 p.m.

By invitation only

This year’s conference on financial integration and stability will put the spotlight on the EU’s single financial market.

Under the heading “Financial integration and stability: towards a more resilient single EU financial market”, a selected group of key policy-makers, financial market leaders and academics will come together at the ECB.
The ECB President, Mario Draghi, and the European Commissioner for the Internal Market and Services, Michel Barnier, will share insights into the EU’s single financial market programme and the crisis, analysing where we stand and looking ahead to what will happen next.

Two high-level panels will discuss how to revitalise the single EU financial market and the implications of macroeconomic imbalances and the sovereign bond crisis for financial integration in the euro area. The ECB’s and the Commission’s latest policy reports on financial stability and integration, respectively the 2012 Report on Financial Integration in Europe and the 2011 European Financial Stability and Integration Report, will be presented at the conference.
