EBA assesses regulatory equivalence of third countries
The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today a questionnaire to guide its assessment of non-EU countries’ equivalence with the EU prudential supervision and regulatory requirements specified in the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) and Directive (CRD). The questionnaire, which will be sent to a selected number of countries in different rounds, will facilitate the collection of data and allow the EBA to provide technical advice on the supervisory regimes of these non-EU countries, as mandated by the European Commission.
