On November 4th, FECIF officially presented its new White Book 2025 to members and selected partners, a milestone publication that goes far beyond data collection or policy review.

The document outlines a shared vision for the future of financial advice in Europe, offering insights, analysis, and forward-looking recommendations from across the federation’s broad network of national associations.

The White Book reflects the combined expertise of industry professionals, regulators, and researchers, addressing the key challenges and opportunities shaping our sector: digital transformation, financial inclusion, regulatory coherence, and the evolving role of advisers in a rapidly changing environment.

This edition was made possible thanks to the collaboration of many partners and contributors — from the national associations participating in the interviews, CMI Stratégies for the data insights & Cattaneo Zanetto & Co. for coordinating the interviews.

The new White Book stands as a collective achievement and a reaffirmation of FECIF’s mission: to ensure that European advisers continue to play a vital role in building trust, resilience, and long-term value for citizens across the continent.
