Finance Watch

Who we are

Finance Watch is a European non-profit association created to defend the public interest in the field of financial regulation.

Our mission

Finance Watch’s mission is to strengthen the voice of society in the reform of financial regulation by conducting advocacy and presenting public interest arguments to lawmakers and the public.

Finance Watch advocates for reforms to stabilise and democratise markets, redirect capital toward public goods, and protect against systemic risks.

The expertise of our team, partly composed of ex-finance professionals, combined with that of our members across Europe, give us the strength and legitimacy to counterbalance arguments in favour of maintaining the status-quo too often presented by the financial lobby.
