Fireside Chat: John Berrigan, Director General, DG FISMA

As the priorities of DG FISMA for the coming years are taking shape, we are delighted that Sean Berrigan, Director General of DG FISMA has agreed to open our series of Afore Consulting in discussion with …

 The discussion will take the form of a virtual fireside chat on the planned work programme of his department taking into account in particular the economic impact of COVID-19 on the European Commission’s priorities.

In particular, we plan to cover the following three themes:

  • The DG FISMA response to COVID-19 pandemic
  • Planned developments under the Fintech and Sustainable finance policies
  • What are we aiming for with the upcoming CMU Action Plan?

Sean has kindly offered to also take a few questions from the audience towards the end of the discussion.

The event is finished.
