The Bundesbank’s stand at the Europe Festival in Frankfurt am Main attracted a large number of visitors to the Römerhallen. The stand was also where the Bundesbank’s Executive Board, Frankfurt’s Mayor Mike Josef, President of Frankfurt Main Finance Gerhard Wiesheu, as well as City Treasurer Bastian Berghoff and Councillor Eileen O’Sullivan, gathered to make a joint statement for a cosmopolitan Europe and an appeal for citizens to vote in the European elections on 9 June 2024.

How can Europe’s economic integration be deepened and the Capital Markets Union created? What measures could help leverage the potential of the Single Market and strengthen the EU’s competitiveness? These questions were discussed by Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel and former Italian Prime Minister Enrico Letta at an event hosted by the Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE in Frankfurt am Main.

Die Deutsche Bundesbank und Frankfurt Main Finance wenden sich anlässlich des Europa-Tages am 9. Mai gemeinsam mit zahlreichen Repräsentantinnen und Repräsentanten des Finanzplatzes und der Region an die Öffentlichkeit. Beide Institutionen und die Unterstützenden des gemeinsamen Appells rufen dazu auf, sich an der Europa-Wahl am 9. Juni zu beteiligen, um Europa und seiner Demokratie eine starke Stimme zu geben.
