In a statement issued today, July 14, 2017, the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative announced their intent to sign the Bilateral Agreement between the United States of America and the European Union on Prudential Measures Regarding Insurance and Reinsurance.
In addition to signing the Agreement in the coming weeks, the Administration also plans to issue a U.S. policy statement on implementation.
