Liberalisation of Trade in Services Committee
The LOTIS Committee, comprising experienced financial and professional services executives, is striving to remove barriers to trade. Highly influential, the Committee is recognised as the only body to represent the whole of the UK-based financial and related professional services sectors in the international trade field, and regularly submits its views to the UK Government and the European Commission.
It includes Government Observers drawn from the main UK Government departments concerned (the Department for Business, the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, UK Trade & Investment, the Financial Services Authority and the Ministry of Justice). The Committee meets approximately quarterly.
