The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published an analysis of how its Opinion on the prudential treatment of legacy instruments has been implemented across the EU. Since the issuance of this Opinion, the EBA has been working in close cooperation with competent authorities to monitor any action taken by institutions to mitigate the infection risk related to such legacy instruments. Overall, the EBA found that both institutions and competent authorities have made significant efforts to implement the EBA Opinion in an effective and consistent manner.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) updated today the list of Other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SIIs) in the EU, which, together with Global Systemically Important Institutions (G-SIIs), are identified as systemically important by the relevant authorities according to harmonised criteria laid down in the EBA Guidelines. This list is based on end-2020 data and also reflects the O-SII score and the capital buffers that the relevant authorities have set for the identified O-SIIs. The list is available also in a user-friendly visualisation tool.
