International Regulatory Strategy Group
The International Regulatory Strategy Group (the “Group”)
has been formed out of the EU Advisory Group. Its remit has now
been extended to cover the international dimension as well as EU
related issues.
The Group will act as an advisory body to the City of London
Corporation and to TheCityUK.
Membership of the Group is by invitation, with members
participating in a personal capacity.
It will aim to shape the international regulatory regime, at
global, regional, and national level, so that it promotes open,
competitive and fair capital markets globally that support
sustainable economic growth and in which the international
financial services markets in the City and other financial centres
across the EU can play a full role.
It will assist the continuing development of the UK (and in
particular the City) as an international financial services
provider and an international market place, complementing the
activities of participating individual interests, represented by
trade associations, financial services firms, trading platforms and
infrastructures for the benefit also of the EU and third country
economies.
The Group will be chaired by
André Villeneuve (CV attached).
The Deputy Chairman will be the Chairman of the Policy and
Resources Committee of the Corporation of London (currently Stuart
Fraser).

EU Regulatory Working Group
In addition, the City of London facilitates an EU Regulatory
Working Group (currently 60 City practitioners and trade
associations) which meets regularly to share intelligence on
emerging issues at EU-level and to consider the most appropriate
form of action.
Members of the Group also participate in issue-specific
briefings arranged both for individual MEPs and for delegations
from the key European Parliament Committees (held both in London
and Brussels), together with networking events targeted at Member
State Permanent Representations.
