The European Commission has disclosed the list of stakeholders consulted in preparation for the review of the EU securitisation framework, responding to a parliamentary question from Martin Schirdewan (The Left). In an answer dated 26 June 2026, Commissioner Maria Luís Albuquerque provided the list as an annex and clarified that the term 'targeted consultation' referred to questions aimed at entities with expertise in the European securitisation market, while stressing that any organisation could submit a response.

The question, submitted on 20 May 2026, sought the names of organisations involved in bilateral exchanges and those invited to the targeted consultation. The Commission's impact assessment report of 17 June 2025 had stated that 'a wide range of bilateral contacts were held with various stakeholders' and that a 'targeted consultation' was conducted. In her reply, Albuquerque explained that the consultation was published on the Directorate-General for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union website for eight weeks, with replies accepted in any EU language. She noted that responses came from industry participants as well as civil society organisations such as Better Finance and Finance Watch.

The disclosure addresses transparency concerns raised by Schirdewan, who had pressed the Commission to specify which stakeholders were consulted bilaterally and what made the consultation 'targeted'. The Commission's answer confirms that the consultation was open to all, despite the 'targeted' label, and that the list of consulted stakeholders is now publicly available.
