Tanya Pieters-Gorissen is Head of Capital Markets Supervision & MiCAR with the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM). In this role she is responsible for supervision of trading venues, capital market infrastructure (i.e. clearing & settlement, benchmarks), securities offerings and public takeover bids as well as MiCAR. Before this, she founded and led the Asset Management Supervision department within the AFM. As head of the Asset Management department, she was also responsible for the role the AFM has in respect of financial stability. Prior to this, Tanya has taken various senior roles within the AFM within Capital Markets Supervision, also as deputy Head of Capital Markets Supervision and Commissioner for trade decisions. Tanya started her career as a lawyer, specializing in securities law, and has worked with several of the big law firms in the Netherlands.
As the UK and EU pursue parallel reforms to strengthen their markets, regulators are focused on revitalising investment and restoring confidence in public markets as engines of growth. In this keynote interview, senior representatives from the FCA and AFM will share their perspectives on how policy can channel savings into productive investment, support SME financing, and make local markets more attractive for issuers and investors.
The conversation will contrast the UK’s drive to modernise listings and secondary market rules with Europe’s Savings and Investment Union (SIU) agenda- aimed at deepening retail and institutional participation. Together, they will explore how both initiatives can boost investment, attract capital, and re-establish Europe and the UK as vibrant destinations for growth.
