By definition, associate members of Efma are not financial institutions. They tend to be providers of services whose clients are financial institutions. As associate members, they gain special access to decision makers from banking and financial institutions that are members of Efma. To enable associate members to make the most of this access and to highlight their contribution to the development of financial services, Efma offers a wide range of tailor-made services. Although most of these are chargeable, they are not available to non-members.

• Market visibility and authority
• Study and report collaboration opportunities
• Event collaboration opportunities
• Tailor-made services for associate members
