Question

‘Investment funds’ is not a defined term within Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013.

Background on the question

Paragraph 3 (13) - ANNEX IX - REPORTING ON LARGE EXPOSURES of EBA's Draft ITS on Supervisory Reporting states: ‘Institutions’ shall include credit institutions and investment funds according to Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and, for the purposes of this reporting, shall mean any private or public undertaking, including its branches, which has been authorised in a third country that applies prudential supervisory and regulatory requirements at least equivalent to those applied in the European Union.

Final answer

The expression "investment funds " in Annex IX. Part 2, paragraph 13 of the Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 13 ITS on supervisory reporting of institutionsDraft ITS on Supervisory reporting is a misprint. Taking into account Article 4.1(3) of the Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, the correct wording shall be:

18Institutions 19 shall include credit institutions and investment firms according to Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and, for the purposes of this reporting, shall mean any private or public undertaking, including its branches, which has been authorised in a third country that applies prudential supervisory and regulatory requirements at least equivalent to those applied in the European Union.
