Competitiveness
To remain competitive and at the forefront of innovation, Europe must be open to cross-border flows of knowledge, ideas, capital and investment. The benefit in doing so ultimately accrues to European citizens and businesses.
Europe rightly strives for high regulatory standards. That said, EFAMA strongly believes our rules need to be well calibrated, so Europe can partake in global competition on a level playing field. Our policy work consistently advocates for a dynamic regulatory environment, which enables European financial markets to remain globally competitive.

This is the fifth annual report undertaken by EFAMA with the collaboration of its members. The Report represents an effort to provide a snapshot of the European asset management industry across both the retail and institutional landscape. Its focus is on the value of assets professionally managed in Europe, rather than on the domiciliation of assets, and with a distinction between investment funds and discretionary mandates assets.
