The Finance Sector Jobs Taskforce was established to co-ordinate efforts across Scotland to ensure maximum levels of employment are retained within the financial services industry - focusing on understanding the needs of the industry as it adjusts to the future structures which will emerge as a result of the current climate.
The Taskforce meets at regular intervals throughout the year and in this section you will find agendas, minutes and papers for these meetings.
