- The Financial Institutions and Prudential Policy Unit (FIPP, since 2006)
- The European Capital Markets Institute (ECMI, since July 2005)
- The European Credit Research Institute (ECRI, since 1999)

CEPS also participates in the European Shadow Financial Regulatory Committee, a group of independent experts in banking, finance and the regulation of financial institutions and markets.
