About Swiss Finance Council

Established in 2013, the Swiss Finance Council engages in dialogue around policy developments in finance at a European and international level. We articulate and advocate the interests of internationally active Swiss financial institutions towards the EU institutions and support an integrated Single Market that can contribute to the creation of a strong, open and globally competitive European financial sector. We act as a platform to share experience, expertise and knowledge through a permanent representative office in Brussels. Our current members are ABPS, AMAS, Credit Suisse, SBA, UBS and VAV. The Swiss Finance Council articulates and advocates the common interests of its members, provides a voice for their joint positions and a source of knowledge and experience in finance for policy makers and the industry at large. The organisation enables its members to participate in policy discussions regarding European and international finance-related issues, develops positions and contributes on their behalf in the international and EU-level policy-making process. On 15 May 2019, Peter Derendinger, Chairman of the Board of Credit Suisse (Schweiz) AG, was elected as Chairman of the Swiss Finance Council. The Swiss Finance Council focuses on issues of relevance to international financial institutions that are high on the EU’s policy agenda. These include, amongst others, Banking and Prudential Regulation, Banking Union, Capital Markets Union (in particular Market Access), Sustainable and Digital Finance, Data Protection, Cybersecurity, Taxation, and Anti-Money Laundering.
