Bank News - December 2014
This publication, which comes just before the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) takes on the supervision of credit institutions, has been the subject of many comments and much debate, in particular as to the adequacy of the stress parameters used. But beyond this debate, the exercise and its consequences shed a fresh light on the challenges that await both banks and regulators and supervisors.
This edition presents our analysis of the results of the comprehensive assessment, but more importantly it sets out our vision of the challenges that the current changes in banking regulation and supervision will bring in the euro area. Challenges which could soon be extended to insurance companies if, like the Central Bank of Romania which has just launched a balance sheet assessment and stress test exercise, EIOPA decides to apply this approach systematically.
