SIFMA, EU/US Trade Associations Joint Statement On 9th Round Of TTIP Negotiations

Date 19/04/2015

Today, SIFMA joined the undersigned trade associations and representative bodies, based in the United States and the European Union, to issue the following statement reinforcing their strong support for a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) that includes financial services regulatory coordination, in advance of the ninth round of negotiations to be held this week in New York City beginning on April 20th:

“TTIP provides an incredible opportunity to strengthen ties between the United States and European Union while increasing prosperity for both. Every single U.S. state and EU member stands to benefit from a deal that covers all the key negotiating areas and sectors and addresses tariff and non-tariff technical barriers to trade. To realize that potential, the agreement has to be comprehensive. As our respective domestic industries are closely linked, an important component of the final deal is in the financial services sector, sustaining a transatlantic capital market that supports cross-border trade and economic activity, expansion of manufacturing, services and technology sectors and job creation on both sides of the Atlantic. To maximize these benefits it is vital that TTIP includes both a framework for financial services regulatory cooperation as well as solutions to market access issues.
