Involvement of consumers and other financial services end-users in Union policy making in the field of financial services (2017-2020)

While supporting the pilot project to set up a financial expertise centre for consumers and end-users of financial services, the EESC feels it would be useful to call for a number of conditions to be met: legitimacy, financial independence, transparency and accountability, public visibility, as well as balance between financial sector professionals and users.

Other relevant EESC opinions:

• Retail financial services and insurance (INT/772)
• Reporting and transparency of securities financing transactions (INT/738)
• Indices serving as Benchmarks in Financial and other Contracts (INT/718)
• Reform of the structure of EU banks (INT/717)
