EBA consults on contractual recognition of bail-in
The European Banking Authority (EBA) launched today a consultation on its draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) under Article 55(3) of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD). These RTS support the effective application of the write-down and conversion powers in relation to liabilities governed by the law of a third country. The consultation is part of the EBA’s work to promote the effective application of recovery and resolution powers to banks and banking groups with a cross-border presence and to foster convergence of practices between relevant authorities and institutions across the EU. The consultation runs until 5 February 2015.
