The One about the Savings and Investments Union featuring Eurogroup President Kyriakos Pierrakakis
EU Finance Podcast host Aidas Palubinskas chats with Kyriakos Pierrakakis, Greek Finance Minister and President of the Eurogroup, about the Savings and Investments Union — the EU's most ambitious attempt yet to put Europe's €10 trillion in household bank deposits to work. They discuss what the SIU means for ordinary Europeans, why it is different from previous capital markets integration efforts, and how much of Europe's investment gap it can realistically close. Pierrakakis also shares his view on the politics of supervisory reform, the future of the Pan-European Personal Pension Product, and what it takes to build consensus among 27 finance ministers.

The One About the European Investment Bank featuring Nadia Calviño
EU Finance Podcast host Aidas Palubinskas chats with Nadia Calviño, President of the European Investment Bank — the EU's principal investment arm and one of the world's largest multilateral lenders. With a career spanning the European Commission, the Spanish government, and the IMF's top financial committee, she brings a rare inside-out view of how EU finance actually works.
The conversation covers what the Savings and Investments Union means for ordinary savers, how the EIB crowds in private capital and whether retail investors can ever really be part of that story, why European companies struggle to scale at home, and what the bank's digital bond issuances tell us about where capital market infrastructure is heading. The episode also touches on the EIB's landmark role in sustainable finance and its recent shift into defence investment.
