The BSG is a key advisory group to the EBA, providing expert input on regulatory and technical standards, guidelines, and recommendations. It comprises 30 members appointed by the EBA's Board of Supervisors. These members represent a broad spectrum of stakeholders, including EU financial institutions, employee representatives, consumers, banking service users, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) representatives, and respected independent academics.
Papenberg Reflecting on her New Role in EBA
In her new role, Anna-Delia Papenberg will aid the EBA carry out its mission to provide consistent, transparent and fair regulation and supervision to the benefit of all EU citizens and businesses by invoking the experience of Nordic finance employees.
Reflecting on her appointment, Anna-Delia expressed her enthusiasm:
I am looking forward to an ambitious EBA work programme in the coming years and intend to do my best to reflect the experience and expertise of NFU’s seven trade union members representing more than 150.000 finance workers across the Nordic countries.
NFU believes that Anna-Delia's legal expertise and dedication will help her make a significant impact in her new role.
Appointments to EIOPA's Insurance Stakeholder Group
In addition to Anna-Delia's appointment to the EBA, NFU celebrates the success of two newly appointed roles from NFU's member unions: Hanna Wallinder from Forena, Sweden, and Liisa Halme from Pro, Finland. They have both been selected for the Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group (IRSG) within the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA). Liisa has been re-appointed for her seventh year, and Hanna is appointed for the first time.
The Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group facilitates EIOPA's consultation with EU stakeholders on issues related to the insurance sectors. This includes regulation and supervision, particularly in areas such as sustainable finance, digitalisation, and operational resilience.
NFU's and our nordic affiliate's broad representation across the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) stakeholder groups underscores our growing presence and voice in promoting Nordic financial workers' interests in the EU.
