IIMG third meeting

04 January 2006




The third meeting of the Inter-institutional Monitoring Group was held on 20 December 2005, when approved a questionnaire that has been sent to industry associations and federations at European level.

The deadline for responses is 31 January 2006.

The Monitoring Group heard from Ms Ieke van den Burg, Member of the European Parliament and Rapporteur for the report on 'Current state of integration of EU financial markets', and Mr Michel Prada, former Chairman of the previous Inter-institutional Monitoring Group and President of the French Securities Regulator (AMF). The Monitoring Group also discussed EU financial policy from the consumer's perspective with Mr Jim Murray, Director of BEUC, and Mr Robin Jarvis, Chairman of the FIN-USE expert group.

During the second part, the Monitoring Group discussed the structure of the first IIMG interim report which is expected to be issued in March 2006. The Group concluded that this report should focus on specific issues and contain some preliminary reflections. It should also address changes that have occurred since the publication of the previous IIMG report in November 2004 and identify some of the current bottlenecks in the Lamfalussy process.
