Completing Europe's Financial Union Seen as Untapped Growth Engine

Original: Europe’s Untapped Financial Power: Completing Financial Union for Growth, Innovation, and Competitiveness

Commentary is highlighting Europe's unfinished financial union as a major untapped source of economic power. The argument is that completing banking and capital markets union would channel European savings into growth, innovation, and competitiveness, reducing dependence on foreign capital and strengthening the EU's position against the United States and China. Advocates say fragmented national markets keep European companies, especially startups, from raising capital at scale within the bloc.

Why now: Ongoing EU debates over capital markets union and competitiveness have renewed attention to the economic cost of Europe's fragmented financial system.
