The European Banking Authority (EBA) today launched a public consultation on draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) and Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) concerning material acquisitions, material transfers of assets or liabilities, and mergers and divisions involving credit institutions or (mixed) financial holding companies under the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD). The standards are designed to support banking consolidation and deepen EU market integration by clarifying supervisory expectations, reducing regulatory uncertainty and ensuring consistent prudential assessment across the EU. The consultation runs until 5 March 2026.
