S1.30. How can European pension funds be leveraged to fund Europe’s industry? ft. Apostolos Thomadakis

Pension funds play an important role as institutional investors in financing Europe's key sectors. However, their current use is limited, especially compared to more liberalised markets as the U.S. Leveraging these funds is key to give European start-ups and innovators the financial boost they need to compete globally 

Our host, Tom Parker, is joined by Apostolos Thomadakis, Head of research at the European Capital Markets Institute (ECMI), an independent research institute run by CEPS’ Financial Markets and Institutions Unit. Both will discuss how Europe can encourage pension funds to invest in high-growth sectors like AI, clean energy, and digital infrastructure.
