Reliable, effective person with integrity. High-quality facts that can be counted on.
Sirpa Pietikäinen – Member of the European Parliament
I frequently worked with Joost in my capacity as an MEP dealing with financial services regulation. Joost was always on top of the detail with complex financial issues, and able to see the wood from the trees. He was easily contactable, straightforward and always professional.
Anneliese Dodds MP – former Member of the European Parliament
Joost's knowledge of the financial sector and the political and administrative aspects of how it is governed in Europe is second to none. His curiosity and energy in discussing research topics and themes with our research team is extremely impressive. I would work again with Joost in a heartbeat.
Leonard Seabrooke – Professor in International Political Economy and Economic Sociology – Copenhagen Business School
It was wonderful to have Joost Mulder as a speaker during our Job Day at the Institute for European Studies at ULB last month. He was generous with his time, he share valuable insight with our students and really contributed to the success of the event. We hope to have him again soon!
