EBA consults on group financial support
The EBA launched today a consultation on draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) and Guidelines specifying the various conditions for the provision of group financial support, and on draft Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) on the disclosure of group financial support agreements. These Technical Standards and Guidelines have been developed within the framework established by the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) and aim at strengthening integrated risk management by removing possible uncertainties around supporting entities in distress within the same group. The consultation runs until 4 January 2015.
