The Capital Markets Union (CMU) is a plan set out by the European Commission aiming to create deeper and more integrated markets within the 28 EU Member States so as to raise nonbank financing and strengthen cross-border capital flows. The proposed plan will help encourage investments and boost jobs and growth of the economy.

Co-hosted by the Systemic Risk Centre and Goldman Sachs, the CMU event on 23rd February 2015 brought together recognised thought leaders and key decisions makers from the public and private sectors to engage in a dialogue on the benefits of creating, as well as the steps which can be taken to deliver, a well-functioning European Capital Markets Union.
