of 17 June 2016

laying down implementing technical standards with regard to procedures, standard forms and templates for the provision of information for the purpose of resolution plans for credit institutions and investment firms pursuant to Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to the Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms and amending Council Directive 82/891/EEC, and Directives 2001/24/EC, 2002/47/EC, 2004/25/EC, 2005/56/EC, 2007/36/EC, 2011/35/EU, 2012/30/EU and 2013/36/EU, and Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010 and (EU) No 648/2012, of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Article 11(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Resolution authorities have been conferred the task of drawing up resolution plans for credit institutions and investment firms (‘institutions’) in accordance with the requirements and the procedure laid down in Directive 2014/59/EU and for that purpose they have been empowered to request the necessary information from institutions. With specific regard to group resolution plans, the Union parent institution is to submit the relevant information to the group-level resolution authority which must then transmit it to the authorities listed in the second subparagraph of Article 13(1) of Directive 2014/59/EU in accordance with the procedure laid down therein.

(2)

The procedure and a minimum set of templates to request the necessary information from institutions should be designed in a way to enable the resolution authorities to collect that information in a consistent manner across the Union and to facilitate the exchange of information among the relevant authorities.

(3)

In accordance with Article 11(1)(a) of Directive 2014/59/EU institutions have a duty to cooperate as much as necessary with the resolution authorities for the purposes of drawing up resolution plans. However, procedures should be designed to minimise duplicated requirements for information. In this regard, Directive 2014/59/EU envisages a duty of cooperation of the competent authorities with the resolution authorities. This cooperation entails that the competent authority and the resolution authority jointly verify whether some or all of the necessary information is already available to the competent authority, by virtue of it exercising its supervisory tasks. Where that information is available, it is appropriate that the competent authority transmits it.

(4)

With a view to the overall content of resolution plans, it is appropriate that a minimum set of templates cover a core of information relating to an institution to be provided to the resolution authority.

(5)

This Regulation is based on the implementing technical standards submitted by the European Banking Authority (EBA) to the Commission.

(6)

The EBA has conducted open public consultations on the implementing technical standards on which this Regulation is based, analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the opinion of the Banking Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2),

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:


(1)   OJ L 173, 12.6.2014, p. 190.

(2)  Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Banking Authority), amending Decision No 716/2009/EC and repealing Commission Decision 2009/78/EC (OJ L 331, 15.12.2010, p. 12).
