ESRB Lists Policy Measures Taken by EU Members to Ease Impact of COVID
ESRB published a compilation of national-level policy measures issued by EU member states in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. ESRB has published a comprehensive list of policy measures for each member country, with description of the measure and the sector the measure applies to. In addition, ESRB has a spreadsheet that provides information on the policy measures taken by member states, EU institutions, and national authorities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. For each measure in a country, the spreadsheet provides information on the description, adoption date, implementation date, applicability period, targeted sector/sub-sectors, and links to the guidance/requirements of the respective national regulator. ESRB plans to update these resources regularly.
