Update of the Credit institutions Register

he European Banking Authority (EBA) published today an updated list of credit institutions authorised to operate within the European Union and European Economic Area countries.

The list is based on information received from National competent authorities as of 31 December 2012.

As underlined in the Directive 2006/48/EC relating to the taking up and pursuit of the business of credit institutions (link to be added), the so-called CRD, the granting of licences to credit institutions remains under the remit of the competent authority at national level.
