Brussels, Belgium — MFA, together with other buy-side representative bodies*, urged the European co-legislators to adopt proportionate securitisation rules that support investor participation and market growth in a joint statement. MFA issued the following statement in connection with the submission.
“Revised EU securitisation rules must not hold back efforts to unlock the full potential of EU markets by limiting global access and deterring investment. The co-legislators should adopt a proportionate framework for investor due diligence to encourage participation, attract global capital, strengthen bank lending capacity, and advance the EU’s Savings and Investments Union.” — Jillien Flores, MFA Chief Advocacy Officer
