Amendment 90 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 18
(18) Small credit institutions face difficulties when issuing covered bonds as the establishment of covered bond programmes often entails high upfront costs. Liquidity is also particularly important in covered bond markets and is largely determined by the volume of outstanding bonds. It is therefore appropriate to allow for joint funding by two or more credit institutions in order to enable the issue of covered bonds by smaller credit institutions. This would provide for the pooling of assets by several credit institutions as collateral for covered bonds issued by a single credit institution and would facilitate the issue of covered bonds in those Member States where there are not currently well-developed markets. It is important that the requirements for the use of joint funding agreements ensure that assets sold or transferred by way of financial collateral arrangement pursuant to Directive 2002/47/EC to the issuing credit institutions meet the requirements of eligibility of assets and segregation of cover assets under Union law.
