ESRB seeks new members for its Advisory Scientific Committee

20 May 2026

• ESRB seeks new experts for its Advisory Scientific Committee (ASC) to start by May 2027
• Deadline for applications is 10 June 2026

The European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB) has today launched a call for expressions of interest for international experts in macroprudential policy and systemic risk to join its Advisory Scientific Committee (ASC).

The ASC is a key advisory body of the ESRB. It provides advice and assistance at the request of the ESRB’s Chair or General Board. Recently, for example, the ASC published a report on artificial intelligence and systemic risk and ASC members contributed substantially to the ESRB report on crypto-assets and decentralised finance.

ASC members are appointed by the ESRB’s General Board on the basis of their general competence and breadth of experience in academic fields or other sectors, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises, trade unions, and providers or consumers of financial services. Employees of institutions from which the General Board draws its members (i.e. national supervisory authorities, national central banks and European authorities) are not eligible to apply.

Successful candidates will be appointed for a renewable four-year mandate to start by May 2027. Members must comply with professional secrecy and confidentiality rules. They are entitled to indemnities and reimbursement of expenses.

Candidates who are neither appointed to the ASC nor rejected during this selection process will be placed on a reserve list, which will be valid for two years.

Interested candidates are invited to send a completed application form to ascapplications@esrb.europa.eu by 10 June 2026. See the full information on our dedicated page.

In line with its commitment to gender diversity, the ESRB particularly encourages applications from female candidates.
