The announcement of a truly European company structure (“EU Inc.”) is not only a milestone in corporate law, but also a noteworthy signal for the financial services and FinTech ecosystem. A more uniform and frictionless corporate framework could shape how FinTechs, financial institutions and investors think about cross-border structuring, scaling and market entry within the EU. For anyone following regulatory developments in the financial services sector, this initiative is therefore well worth watching.
