Navigating CRD VI and EU market access for Swiss banks
This breakfast seminar will outline the regulatory framework, highlight key risk areas, and conclude with clear takeaways and a practical roadmap for establishing or maintaining an effective EU presence.
CRD VI will, in practice, require Swiss banks to establish an EU branch when providing core banking services to EU clients, unless they significantly adapt their business model. Questions around market access, third country branch requirements and exemptions such as reverse solicitation are now front of mind.
Against this backdrop, our firmwide Swiss and EU financial regulatory team will share practical insights into the implications of CRD VI and how Swiss banks can continue to engage with EU clients in a compliant and strategic way.
What to expect
- Regulatory insight: Up to date perspectives on CRD VI, including third country branch requirements and available exemptions.
- Practical guidance: Clear takeaways and next steps for Swiss banks considering continued or expanded activity in the EU.
- Meaningful connections: An opportunity to exchange views with peers and engage directly with our regulatory specialists.
