Putting the Right Tools in Place to Navigate the EU Policy Ecosystem

The European Union operates under the guidance of several governing bodies that implement varying policymaking processes. From the European Council and European Parliament to the European Commission, each institution drives policy initiatives through its own agendas and measures. Navigating the complexities involved in staying on top of the developments coming out of each institution and the countless stakeholders involved is no small task. Without the right tools in place, identifying, monitoring, and acting on EU policy developments in an efficient, consistent manner is nearly impossible. 

FiscalNote’s EU policy intelligence platform, EU Issue Tracker (EUIT), stands apart from other policy monitoring tools by offering a complete database of all EU dossiers; from the earliest sign of potential regulatory action to hotly debated and adopted measures. Our comprehensive platform combines cutting edge technology with human analysis from our expert team in Brussels who summarize each dossier, explain the latest developments, highlight how proposals amend existing regulations, and provide analysis on committees, stakeholders, and future timelines. 

Here’s how you can more effectively identify, monitor, and act on EU policy initiatives with EU Issue Tracker.

EU Issue Tracker is committed to providing complete coverage of all that documentation as the dossier moves through its procedure. You can also view each dossier’s summary, timeline, and related documents, and easily export this information in a PDF. 

While these documents are publicly available elsewhere, finding them can often be a manual and inefficient process. We save you the time, resources, and trouble otherwise spent searching through countless sites. With EU Issue Tracker, we deliver exactly what you’re looking for in a neatly packaged update.
