Specialised in EU public affairs, financial regulation & capital markets, Victor’s expertise lies in connecting the dots between macro-economic policy, EU politics & financial regulation. A Dutch-French citizen, raised in a family where politics, history, economics and diplomacy were always vividly discussed and debated, Victor is convinced of the need for European cooperation and is an ardent supporter of the EU. He also believes that finance can be a force for good, provided it is harnessed with the right policy frameworks and incentives. The risks associated with climate change could pose systemic challenges to our societies, political institutions and economies. Hence it is vital that finance is incentivised to fund the transition to a low-carbon economy.
