Side by side

Compare organizations

Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.

Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

What each said, in their own words

Their opening passages on the files they share, verbatim and in filing order. We do not summarize, compare, or characterize positions — read them at source.

Retail investor protection rules

German Insurance Association (GDV) · filed 25 May 2022 · source

We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the call for evidence. While we consider targeted modifications of existing legislation to be appropriate in some points, we are convinced that the current regulation on insurance-based investment products has, for the most part, worked well in practice.

Association of German Public Insurers · filed 9 Aug 2023 · source

The fundamental aim of the EU Retail Investment Strategy (RIS), namely strengthening retail investors participation in Europes capital markets, is to be supported. The German Association of Public Insurers (VöV) therefore appreciates the opportunity for consultation and is ready to lend constructive support to the implementation process.

European single access point (ESAP): access to information in relation to financial services, capital markets and sustainability

Association of German Public Insurers · filed 15 Jan 2021 · source

The Association of German Public Insurers (www.voev.de) welcomes the initiative of the European Commission to create an EU-wide platform for company information, in particular for sustainability data. So far, the availability of high quality, reliable and comparable data is insufficient to comply with the increasing expectations and new regulatory requirements in the realm of sustainable finance.

German Insurance Association (GDV) · filed 15 Jan 2021 · source

The German Insurance Association (GDV) welcomes the European Commission’s initiative to establish a European Single Access Point (ESAP) for financial and non-financial information publicly disclosed by companies.

Association of German Public Insurers · filed 1 Mar 2022 · source

The Association of German Public Insurers strongly welcomes the European Commission's initiative to strengthen the availability of sustainability data. The Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) requires insurers to disclose the sustainability data of their investments. The Taxonomy Regulation, specifically Art. 8, requires disclosure of additional sustainability indicators.

German Insurance Association (GDV) · filed 22 Mar 2022 · source

The German Insurance Association GDV greatly welcomes that ESAP will be established by no later than 31 December 2024 and will provide centralized access to publicly available financial and sustainability information of relevance to investors on capital markets and necessary to comply with sustainability reporting obligations.
