The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today an Opinion addressed to the European Commission, relating to the perimeter of credit institutions and namely to the different approaches across EU Member States on the interpretation of the definition of ‘credit institution’ in the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR). The Opinion is based on a report, also published today, in which the EBA summarises the findings of a comprehensive study, which focuses on the interpretation of the term ‘credit institution’ and the prudential treatment of those entities established in the Union which carry on credit intermediation but are not ‘credit institutions’.
