x
Brussels, 21 September 2022– The European Banking Federation (EBF) co-signed a joint industry letter to the Czech Presidency of the Council of the European Union, the European Commission, and the European Parliament, calling for the proper functioning of the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) to be safeguarded.
In this regard, the EBF and seven other associations argue that interventions such as restricting market access to compliance entities would impair the efficient functioning of the EU ETS and risk jeopardizing Europe’s decarbonization efforts. The letter urges co-legislators not to impose such harmful restrictions.
