Promoting European values

We advocate for an EU dedicated to fair globalisation, driven by European values, and to fostering innovation.

We shape the financial sector's framework, placing employees at its heart.

Advancing a prosperous and sustainable finance sector in Europe

European Institutions

We advocate for Nordic financial employees across the EU, engaging directly with European Parliament and other key political actors. We propose amendments to legislative texts, collaborate with the European Commission's DG FISMA and cooperate closely with UNI Europa Finance. We  shape EU policy on behalf of Nordic financial employees.

Trade Union Cooperation

NFU plays a crucial role in fostering collaboration within the Nordic financial community, enhancing its strength by coordinating efforts among Nordic trade unions. This unified approach ensures effective responses to challenges and maximises opportunities in the banking and insurance sectors.

Consultations 

We actively shape EU legislation impacting the Nordic financial sectors and their employees from the very beginning. A key part of our efforts involves responding to EU consultations. We engage with all EU institutions and supervisory authorities on various proposals, reports, and discussion papers that affect financial sector employees.
