N.M. de Arriba - Sellier LLM

Nathan de Arriba-Sellier is a PhD researcher in the European Research Centre on Economic and Financial Governance (EURO-CEFG) at Eramsus University Rotterdam and Leiden University, under the co-supervision of Professor Amtenbrink and Professor van den Bogaert. 

Nathan's PhD research deals with the functioning of the European System of Financial Supervision (ESFS) under the home state supervision principle. The role of national supervisors and the interplay between national and EU authorities in financial supervision are at the core of his research. This led him in November 2018 to conduct a research visit on British financial supervision, European banking supervision and Brexit at Queen Mary University of London, where he was sponsored by Professor Rosa M. Lastra. He will also be a visiting scholar at Duke Law in the Spring of 2019. 

Before his appointment at EURO-CEFG, he formerly clerked for the EU law unit of Conseil d'Etat, France's highest government advisory body and administrative court. In 2015, he was a Summer Research Fellow at Stanford Law where he conducted research on the influence of US law on European financial regulatory reforms. Before that, he was an assistant to the French General Consul in Hamburg, Germany. He used to serve as vice-president in charge of student life at University Jean Moulin Lyon 3.

Nathan holds an LL.M in EU Law from College of Europe (Bruges) and an LL.M. in International and European Business Law from the University of Vienna, as well as a bachelor from the University Jean Moulin Lyon 3 where he specialized in Public law. Nathan graduated valedictorian with a 'Maîtrise' in European law from the University Jean Moulin Lyon 3 after a year at University Hamburg where he was enrolled as part of the Erasmus exchange programme. He also studied German Law and US law.

His research interests revolve around legal issues relating to financial supervision, financial regulation, green finance, the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and trade.
