ECB Updates List of Supervised Entities in EU in August 2019
ECB updated the list of supervised entities in EU, with the current number of significant supervised entities being 114. This list contains the significant supervised entities, which are directly supervised by the ECB (part A), and the less significant supervised entities, which are indirectly supervised by the ECB (Part B).
ECB reviews certain parameters that determine whether a credit institution or a group fulfills any of the significance criteria according to the SSM Framework Regulation (EU Regulation No 468/2014). In the SSM framework, the types of supervised banks are referred to as credit institutions, financial holding companies, mixed financial holding companies, and a branch established in a participating member state by a credit institution that is established in a non-participating member state. ECB updates the list of supervised entities regularly and the list reflects status of banks at the given cut-off date. The current cut-off date for changes is July 01, 2019. This date does not necessarily coincide with the date of the actual decision on the significance of a bank. The list is compiled on the basis of significance decisions adopted and notified by ECB that refer to events that became effective up to the cut-off date.
