In this website we prefer to use the term “Single Market” rather than the official designation of “Internal Market” because we believe that this wording is more resonant for a wider audience. However, note that the term used in official documents – such as the Treaty and other legislative texts – is and continues to be “Internal Market”.

Who is behind MiFiD?

The EU Single Market thematic website on EUROPA is managed by the Internal Market and Services Directorate General (DG MARKT), one of the departments which make up the European Commission.

Objectives

The key objective of our website is to increase knowledge of and support for the EU Single Market among interested citizens, businesses, journalists and other stakeholders by providing users with clear, up to date and easily navigable information in at least three languages (English, French and German).
