Brussels Review: with Graham Bishop (grahambishop.com), Fiona Wright (Brunswick) and Brian Polk (PwC)

Why you should watch: There are the negotiations on a MoU, there's the progress (or lack of it) on longer term relations between the EU and UK (and on which 'third country' model the EU should apply). There's also Fabio Panetta's important intervention in the clearing debate, there's the new focus on AML and the BIS's study into corporate credit stress post-Covid. And then there's ESMA's proposed land-grab on corporate reporting, particularly on sustainability issues. We may have left the EU, but EU issues certainly haven't left us.

Moderator: Andrew Hilton (Director, CSFI)
