TheCityUK incorporated the functions of the International Financial Services London in 2010. A City of London Corporation news release in May 2010 said:[1]

"IFSL is determined to contribute to the effectiveness of TheCityUK by bringing to it the support of its broad‐based membership of financial services businesses along with its well‐established capability for delivering international promotional activity and publishing research to spread awareness of the international performance of the sector."

History

International Financial Services London (IFSL) (formerly British Invisibles), claims to provide (through its LOTIS (Liberalisation Of Trade In Services) Committee) an effective interface between the private sector and government on a wide range of business, regulatory and market access issues. More specifically, the organisation is said to have close links with government departments, in particular HM Treasury, British Trade International, the Department of Trade and Industry and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The overall goal is to speed up liberalisation of trade in services, which is currently regulated by the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). The growing economic importance of services, and the associated business opportunities this opens up, explains the UK government's support for GATS.

Two IFSL working groups, the Liberalisation of Trade in Services (LOTIS) Committee and the High-Level LOTIS Group, constitute a veritable corporate-state alliance.
