EBA launches consultation on Guidelines regarding the exposures to be associated with high risk
The European Banking Authority (EBA) launched today a consultation on its Guidelines regarding the types of exposures to be associated with high risk under Article 128 (3) of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR). The Guidelines specify which types of exposures, other than those mentioned in Article 128 (2) CRR, are to be associated with particularly high risk and under which circumstances. The Guidelines also clarify the notion of investments in venture capital firms and private equity. The consultation runs until 17 July 2018.
