Post: ESMA appoints new members of its Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group

he European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), the EU’s financial markets regulator and supervisor, has appointed new members of its Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group (SMSG). On 1 July 2024 the new members will start their four-year term, during which they will provide ESMA with advice on its policy work and will be consulted on technical standards and guidelines.

Verena Ross, ESMA’s Chair, said:

“Congratulations to the newly selected SMSG members. I believe that with their strong expertise, diverse professional backgrounds and broad geographical representation, we have ensured ESMA will be receiving different stakeholder views and input from across the European Union. ESMA works to enhance investor protection, build more effective and attractive capital markets in the European Union and safeguard financial stability. This is why I look forward to hearing the SMSG members’ perspectives on market developments and to receiving valuable advice on numerous files under ESMA’s remit.
I would like to thank the outgoing SMSG members for their dedication to the role and their contributions during the last four years. My special gratitude goes to the SMSG Chair, Veerle Colaert, for all her support and the excellent coordination of the group. During its tenure, the outgoing SMSG gave ESMA relevant and valuable stakeholder feedback and advice on the European capital market regulatory framework.”
