ECMI AC: Sustaining Growth through Innovation in Capital Markets 2018 | Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS) | 10 October 2018 | AXA, Boulevard du Régent 7, 1000 Brussels, Place du Trône 1, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgium

Well-functioning, deeper and highly integrated European capital markets are expected to play a greater role in providing alternative corporate funding and better investment opportunities. To this end, the Capital Markets Union (CMU) project should aim beyond the actions set for end-2019, towards a revamped strategy for EU-27. This year's annual conference will contribute to the public debate about the capacity of capital markets to enable long-term value creation in the real economy, namely supporting innovative companies and sustainable economic growth.
