EU- US: Financial services. (By Sylodium, global import export directory).

The economic crisis in the advanced economies is accelerating the shift of geopolitical and economic influence from West to East, this could be the main reason of the recently talks about sign a FTA between US and EU to soften this change. 

EU wants financial services to be included in negotiations on the ambitious EU-U.S. FTA, that could start by June of this year.

On financial services, there are two aspects, firstly,  the regulatory (aspect), that won’t be negotiated,  and  the market access, that should be negotiated.

Negotiations will focus on harmonising standards, from car seat belts to household cleaning products, and regulations governing services. These help ensure exporters can compete more freely.
