What do we do?

A European Centre with a Sector Focus

From our offices in the heart of Europe, Brussels, Belgium, we view the world through the lens of our key sector: land forces.  For our Member States this means they benefit from an organisation fully focused on this sector, wholly understanding the challenges they face and completely tuned in to their needs. Over the decades we have been careful to build our international presence using a combination of local researchers with demonstrable local knowledge and fully integrated teams acting together at a global level.

Putting Collaborative Relationships at the Heart of our Work

Understanding exactly what each of our Member States needs and wants lies at the heart of our approach to harmonising land doctrines and promoting interoperability. We adopt a long-term view and we take time to understand the distinct demands that each Member State faces. This allows us to build a bespoke relationship to suit each Member State. Our approach means that we are consistent in the standard of excellence we bring to our service and flexible enough to build into each relationship value that is meaningful for each Member State. 

Building Value Through Inclusivity and Diversity

Collaboration and flexibility are as vital within our own organisation as it is in our work with our Member States. The diverse range of professional people that Finabel attracts and nurtures has created a rich pool of talent. This makes a direct contribution to the value that we create, a real difference to the services that we provide and shapes the particular dimension to the advice that we give.
