EBA updates some important Q&As in the area of own funds and eligible liabilities
The European Banking Authority (EBA) has updated some of its existing Q&As on own funds and eligible liabilities to ensure consistency with the revised final draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) on own funds and eligible liabilities submitted to the European Commission in May 2021. While the latter have not been finally adopted yet, the EBA deemed it important to already provide clarity to institutions and market participants on some undisputed aspects related to the RTS that are particularly relevant for their practical implementation of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) and the RTS.
