FILS Europe 2025 brought together an extraordinary community of leaders from across the fixed income landscape.

With more than 1,100 attendees - including 41% from the buy side - this year’s event reaffirmed FILS as the place where the market’s most important conversations happen. Across three packed days, the energy was incredible. The sessions were lively, the debates were frank and the connections made meaningful. From the main stage to the roundtables, delegates came ready to share ideas, challenge assumptions, and look ahead to what’s next for European fixed income.

I would like to say a sincere thank you to our advisory board, all of our speakers, sponsors, delegates and everybody who helped to make this year's event such a success. Your insights and engagement shaped discussions that will continue to influence the market long after the conference doors closed.

For those who were unable to join us in Amsterdam, this post-event recap captures the key themes and takeaways from across the event. These include the rise of automation and AI in trading, the shifting dynamics of market structure and regulation, and how responsible investing has involved in a more pragmatic, data-driven world.

FILS has always been more than a meeting point. It is a forum for collaboration, innovation and progress. We hope this report is proof of just that, helping to capture the ideas, energy and perspectives that make FILS Europe a catalyst for change
