## Resource

Europe’s fragmented financial landscape is holding back growth, as investors stay cautious and companies rely too much on banks. Verena Ross, head of the European Securities and Markets Authority, champions the Savings and Investments Union to unify capital markets across the 27 EU nations, letting money flow freely like people do. This would empower savers, diversify corporate funding, and reduce vulnerability to bank lending crunches. Ross stresses the need for clearer tools and smarter education to boost investor confidence—and warns against blindly trusting AI. As she steps down, she urges her successor to build a deep, liquid European capital market that attracts global investment and fuels economic resilience.
