LUXEMBOURG - Designs for a more sustainable financial centre

www.lff.lu - Thanks to its expertise and longstanding experience in financial services, the Luxembourg financial centre doesn’t need to hide behind Singapore or London. This was the principal message of Ernst Wilhelm Contzen and Carlo Thill, re-elected President and Vice President of the Luxembourg Bankers’ Association (ABBL)

Over the last 30 years, the Luxembourg financial centre has constantly adapted to new regulatory measures and legislation, and it will continue to do so in the future. That applies not only for private banking, the sector Luxembourg is most known and respected for, but also for the fund industry. Despite the obstacles in the way to a sustainable financial centre, like Fatca for instance, Thill is confident that Luxembourg can benefit from its past experience. “I am sure that we can face the future optimistically”, he said at the press conference on the occasion of the ABBLs’ general meeting 2012.  (source)
