International Regulatory Strategy Group (IRSG)

The International Regulatory Strategy Group (IRSG) is one of the leading cross-sectoral groups in Europe for the industry, discussing and acting on regulatory developments. It comprises senior leaders from across the UK-based financial and related professional services industry.

We jointly run the IRSG with the City of London Corporation to promote sustainable economic growth and an international framework that facilitates open and competitive capital markets globally. 

Priorities of the IRSG:

  • influencing the regulatory landscape in Europe and beyond so that the UK-based financial and related professional services industry continues to prosper and drive growth across Europe
  • responding to regulatory initiatives and consultations while maintaining a holistic view of the regulatory landscape.

For more information about the work of the IRSG please contact us.
