The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published an Opinion following the notification by the Dutch Central Bank (De Nederlandsche Bank - DNB) of its intention to extend a measure originally introduced in 2022 for a further two years until 2026. The measure aims to maintain the resilience of institutions against a potential severe downturn in the residential real estate market. This action comes amidst recent sustained real estate price increases. Based on the information provided by the DNB, the EBA does not object to the extension of the measure.
