Opinion of the European Central Bank (ECB) on a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on structural measures improving the resilience of EU credit institutions.
The European Central Bank received a request from the European Parliament for an opinion on this proposal. Whilst welcoming the proposal, the ECB made a series of comments on the following issues:
Scope of application of the proposed rules :
The ECB stressed that in the case of a concentration of credit institutions (for example, a merger) which would immediately create a single credit institution falling within the scope of the proposed regulation, the combined figures for the credit institutions which formed the single entity, during the period of two years prior to the concentration, should be considered when the competent authority assesses whether the thresholds for the new single entity are met.
Apart from such cases, national competent authorities should review on a regular basis, and in any case at least annually, whether the threshold criteria are met.
Moreover, the Commission should assess the appropriateness of the threshold criteria in its review of the proposed regulation, e.g. to verify whether all relevant credit institutions are covered.
Prohibited trading activities, in particular proprietary trading:
The ECB generally supported that the proposed regulation prohibits proprietary trading by certain credit institutions. It also welcomed that the proposed regulation prohibits relevant credit institutions from owning or investing in hedge funds.
The ECB generally supported the definition of proprietary trading as put forward in the proposed regulation but suggested some amendments that aim to clarify the prohibited activities. In particular, the ECB suggested clarifying that there will be a prohibition on transactions relating to proprietary trading that are undertaken in reaction to and in order to exploit market valuations and with the aim of making profit, irrespective of whether a profit is in fact realised either in the short or in the longer term.
The ECB stressed that some carve-outs are implied by the Commission proposal which seem to indicate that the nature of the exempted trading activities should be further assessed in the upcoming review of the proposed regulation in order to determine the extent of the possible threat that they may pose to individual credit institutions or the global financial system.
Decision on whether or not to request separation of trading activities, in particular the treatment of market-making activities :
Although supporting the proposed regulation's approach to separation, the ECB considered it would be useful to supplement these helpful provisions by introducing more clarity to the assessment of whether a core credit institution's trading activities pose a threat to financial stability and thus require separation.
As regards increasing transparency, the ECB considered that the supervisory decision needs to be made by reference to a set of criteria broader than that contained in the proposed regulation. To this end, the metrics could usefully be complemented by additional qualitative information such as: (a) a cartography of trading activities, including methods for assessing the need to build up inventories in order to meet anticipated client demand; (b) the compliance framework implementing the proposed regulation; and (c) the compensation schemes for traders.
The metrics could be complemented by additional quantitative data such as inventory turnover, value-at-risk variations, ‘day 1 profit and loss’, limits on trading desks and geographic diversification of the trading activities.
The ECB considered it important to sufficiently preserve the market-making activities of banks in order to maintain or increase asset and market liquidity, moderate price volatility and increase security markets' resilience to shocks. This is essential for financial stability, the implementation and smooth transmission of monetary policy, and the financing of the economy. Therefore, any regulatory treatment should avoid negative consequences for market-making activities that are not justified by significant risks. With this in mind, the ECB suggested a more accurate definition of market making.
Lastly, the ECB noted that it should be noted that separation does not in itself solve the too-big-to-fail issue.
Derogation clause :
The proposed regulation provides that the Commission, at the request of a Member State, can authorise a derogation from the separation requirements for credit institutions that are covered by national legislation having an ‘equivalent effect’ to the provisions of the proposed regulation. The ECB stated that the derogation is not compatible with the aim of creating a level playing field and may create a precedent for future derogations in other types of Union legislation.
Cooperation between the competent authority and the resolution authority :
Enhancing the resolvability of banks while preserving critical financial services in the economy as a whole is also a key aim of the supervisory process to which the measures in the proposed regulation should seek to give effect. Therefore, competent authorities and resolution authorities will have to work in close cooperation in both of these processes.
Sanctioning powers :
As the ECB is considered a competent authority for the exclusive purpose of carrying out the tasks conferred on it, the ECB should also have the power to exercise appropriate sanctioning powers.
It suggested aligning the level of pecuniary sanctions in the proposed regulation with Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council. Lastly, as regards the power to suspend an authorisation, the ECB suggested removing this sanction from the proposed regulation in order to avoid legal difficulties.
OPINION OF THE EUROPEAN DATA PROTECTION SUPERVISOR (EDPS).
The proposal on structural measures improving the resilience of EU credit institutions and on the proposal on the reporting and transparency of securities financing transactions form part of the wide-ranging overhaul of financial regulation and supervision which the EU has undertaken since the onset of the financial crisis.
Each proposal involves the processing of personal data including the publication of details about individuals who have been subject to sanctions for breaches of the proposed rules.
The EDPS regrets that he was not consulted prior to the adoption of the proposals. He recognises the legitimate public policy goal behind these proposals, and welcomes the fact that some data protection safeguards are envisaged.
However, the EDPS recommends a fuller integration of respect for the rights to privacy and the protection of personal data by means of the following changes:
the inclusion of a general provision for all processing of personal data; an appropriate maximum term in the proposal on transparency of securities financing transactions (SFTs) for personal information to be retained by counterparties to an SFT; regarding the provisions derogating from the obligation for confidentiality and professional secrecy in the proposal on transparency of SFTs: (i) clarification on whether or not personal data are within the scope of this derogation, and if so, the inclusion of a statement that those data may only be processed for compatible purposes and in accordance with applicable data protection rules; (ii) clarification whether personal data transfers to third countries are envisaged; clarifying that the power to issue a public warning about identified individuals should not be exercised automatically but rather only on a case by case basis and where appropriate and proportionate; regarding the provisions for publication of sanctions : (i) the inclusion of a requirement in both regulations to consider separately each case and its particular circumstances on the basis of necessity and proportionality prior to any decision to publish the identity of the person subject to a sanction; and (ii) specifying a maximum retention period for personal data published as part of information on sanction decisions on competent authorities' websites.
PURPOSE: to strengthen financial stability in the Union through structural reforms of large banks.
PROPOSED ACT: Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council.
ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: the European Parliament decides in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure and on an equal footing with the Council.
BACKGROUND: the Union’s financial system includes over 8,000 banks of different sizes, corporate structures and business models, a few of which exist in the form of large banking groups carrying out an all-encompassing set of activities. The financial crisis has demonstrated the interconnected nature of Union banks and the resulting risk to the financial system.
Since the start of the financial crisis, the Union and its Member States have engaged in a fundamental overhaul of bank regulation and supervision including the setup of the first steps towards a banking union. Given the need to ensure that all banks can be resolved, there was a need to assess whether more measures are needed to further reduce the probability and impact of failure of the largest and most complex banks.
A High-Level Expert Group ("HLEG") chaired by Erkki Liikanen, Governor of the Bank of Finland, was mandated for this purpose. The HLEG recommended the mandatory separation of proprietary trading and other high-risk trading activities into a separate legal entity within the banking group for the largest and most complex banks.
On 3 July 2013, the European Parliament adopted, by a large majority, a resolution on reforming the structure of the EU banking sector in which it welcomes structural reform measures at Union level to tackle concerns on banks that are too big to fail.
This proposal represents a critical part of the Union response to tackling the problem of ‘too big to fail’ banks. It is accompanied by a proposed regulation to tackle another conduit for financial contagion – namely, interconnectedness among market participants including systemic banks through opaque trading links in securities financing transactions.
IMPACT ASSESSMENT: on the overall costs and benefits of this proposal, the impact assessment carried out has been subject to qualitative analysis and quantitative modelling. While taking due account of the clear benefits derived from the diversity of banking models in Europe, the proposal intends to ensure that the delicate balance between the prevention of systemic risks and the financing of sustainable economic growth is maintained.
CONTENT: the proposed Regulation aims at enhancing financial stability in the Union by means of structural reform of large banks , thus complementing financial regulatory reforms already undertaken at Union level. It will apply to European banks that are identified as being of global systemic importance and exceed certain thresholds. The main points are as follows:
Prohibition of proprietary trading : the proposal provides that a credit institution and entities within the same group must not engage in proprietary trading in financial instruments and commodities. The proposal states that desks’, units’, divisions’ or individual traders’ activities specifically dedicated to taking positions for making a profit for own account, without any connection to client activity or hedging the entity’s risk, would be prohibited.
To prevent banks from circumventing the prohibition by e.g. owning or investing in hedge funds, the proposal states that banks subject to the proprietary trading prohibition are also prohibited from investing in or holding shares in hedge funds (or certificates/derivatives linked to these), or entities that engage in proprietary trading or sponsor hedge funds.
The prohibition on proprietary trading becomes effective on 1 January 2017.
Potential separation of certain trading activities : the proposed Regulation also requires the competent authority to undertake a systematic review of certain other activities where there is the greatest risk that proprietary trading could be performed in contravention of the prohibition.
The competent authority is granted the power to require the separation of the high-risk activities (market-making, investment in/sponsoring of securitization and trading of certain derivatives) if these give rise to risks for the stability of the financial system. This aims to avoid the risk that banks will circumvent the proprietary trading ban by engaging in hidden proprietary trading activities and that the non-prohibited trading activities becomes too significant or highly leveraged.
The actual separation of trading activities will be preceded by an obligation for relevant banks to submit a "separation plan" to competent authorities. If the bank demonstrates to the satisfaction of the competent authority that these activities do not endanger the Union financial stability, the competent authority may decide not to require separation.
The provisions on separation of trading activities from credit institutions will become effective on 1 July 2018.
In order to ensure the effective and consistent supervision and the development of the single rule book in banking, the proposal envisages an important role for the European Banking Authority ("EBA"). The latter will be consulted by competent authorities when taking certain decisions as set out in this proposal and will prepare draft regulatory and implementing technical standards, and submit reports to the Commission.
BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal involves the hiring of two new temporary agents at EBA from January 2016. The new tasks will be carried out with the human resources available within the annual budgetary allocation procedure, and in line with the financial programming for agencies. Estimated impact on expenditure amounts to EUR 760 000 for the period 2016-2020.
DELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions empowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

Amendment 100 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 b (new) (2 b) Financial market stability should be seen in the context of overall sustainable and balanced economic growth. It cannot be a stand-alone objective but needs to be seen in a broader macro-economic perspective.
Amendment 101 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 3 a (new) (3 a) Since the publication of the HLEG the Union and its Member States have adopted a vast variety of legislation aiming at breaking the link between sovereign and banks to avoid future bail- outs. In this context it is crucial to restore resolvability and liability of credit institutions. A structural reform of the banking sector can install transparency and eliminate cross subsidisation of trading activities by deposits eligible under the Deposit Guarantee Scheme in accordance with Directive 2014/49/EU1a. To assure a credible bail-in and, thus, a liability for risks and losses, significantly higher capital requirements than under current regulation are needed. The Financial Stability Board's proposal of a Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity represents a first step into this direction. __________________ 1aDirective 2014/49/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on deposit-guarantee schemes. OJ L 173, 12.06.2014, p.149.
Amendment 102 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 3 a (new) (3 a) Since the proposal of the High-level Expert Group on reforming the structure of the Union’s banking sector, the Union has adopted a large amount of legislation (EMIR, MIFID2, CRR, CRD4, DGS, BRRD among others) reducing systemic risk, increasing capital requirements, safeguarding depositors and improving the tools for dealing with bank crises across the Union. As a result of these new rules and of new structures for supervision, the legal framework has been reinforced and the single rulebook in banking has created a new basis for financial markets in the Union, facilitating a single financial market and a working Capital Markets Union.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 4 a (new) (4a) Banks must be able to offer a complete package of services for savers, small and medium-sized undertakings and the business sector, but may no longer use savings for trading for their own profit and high-risk trading activities; internal separation or splitting of a bank’s company operations and its business services can prevent the use of savings for these activities;
Amendment 106 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 7 (7) Inconsistent national legislation that does not pursue the same policy goals in a manner that is compatible and equivalent with the mechanisms envisaged in this Regulation increases chances that capital movements decisions of market participants are negatively affected because different and inconsistent rules and practices may significantly raise operational costs for credit institutions that are operating across borders and hence lead to a less efficient allocation of resources and capital compared to a situation where capital movement is subject to similar and consistent rules. For the same reasons, different and inconsistent rules will also negatively affect decisions of market participants relating to where and how to provide cross-border financial services. Different and inconsistent rules may also unintentionally encourage geographic arbitrage. The movement of capital and the provision of cross-border services are essential elements for the proper functioning of the Union internal market.
Amendment 107 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 9 (9) Harmonisation at Union level can ensure that Union banking groups, many of which operate in several Member States, are regulated by a common framework of structural requirements thereby avoiding competitive distortions, reducing regulatory complexity, avoiding unwarranted compliance costs for cross- border activities, promoting further integration in the Union market place and contributing to the elimination of regulatory arbitrage opportunities. However, in this context, any harmonisation efforts at Union level must respect and be compatible with the specific characteristics of the national banking systems wherever possible.

Amendment 115 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 10 a (new) (10 a) With respect to ensuring the effectiveness of separation this Regulation sets minimum standards. Member States, either collectively within Banking Union or individually outside Banking Union, may further empower the competent authority, including, but not limited to imposing additional capital and liquidity requirements, requiring lower thresholds for maximum extra or intra group exposures and restricting transactions between the trading entity and the core credit institution.
Amendment 116 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 12 (12) This Regulation intends to reduce excessive risk taking and rapid balance sheet growth, difficult resolution, difficult monitoring, conflicts of interest, competition distortions, and misallocation of capital. It also intends to shield institutions carrying out activities that deserve a public safety net from losses incurred as a result of other activities. Necessary rules should therefore contribute to refocusing banks on their core relationship-oriented role of serving the real economy, and avoid that bank capital be excessively allocated to trading at the expense of lending to the non-financial economy. This regulation also intends to reduce risks arising from financial conglomerates operating across the supervisory boundaries. To achieve these objectives, this Regulation does not limit the powers conferred to the relevant authorities by other legislation including, among others, Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013, Directive 2014/59/EU and Directive 2013/36/EU.

Amendment 119 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 12 (12) This Regulation intends to reduce excessive risk taking and rapid balance sheet growth, difficult resolution, difficult monitoring, conflicts of interest, competition distortions, and misallocation of capital. Bank resolvability may provide an indication of whether certain activities by banks lead to excessive risk and a threat to financial stability but this is certainly not the only criterion. It also intends to shield institutions carrying out activities that deserve a public safety net from losses incurred as a result of other activities. Necessary rules should therefore contribute to refocusing banks on their core relationship-oriented role of serving the real economy, and avoid that bank capital be excessively allocated to trading at the expense of lending to the non-financial economy.

The provisions of this Regulation should accordingly only apply to those Union credit institutions and groups that either are deemed of global systemic importance or exceed certain relative and absolute accounting-based thresholds in terms of trading activity or absolute size. Subsidiaries of foreign institutions which, measured on an aggregated basis within the Union, meet the thresholds shall be covered accordingly. To level the playing field, this Regulation with the exception of Chapter III shall also apply to subsidiaries of foreign G-SIIs and of foreign entities which meet the thresholds referred to above. Member States or the competent authorities may decide to impose similar measures also on smaller credit institutions.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 17 a (new) (17a) Having in mind that private equity and venture capital funds contribute to the financing of the real economy and that this positive role partly depends on the relationship of the private equity and venture capital industry with the banks (whether as investors, asset manager or lenders), banks lending to private equity and venture capital funds as well as providing guarantees to such funds should not be considered as trading activities that should be subject to the structural separation.

In order to prohibit short selling, a credit institution should hold cash equivalent assets before being able to sell these assets.
Amendment 144 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 20 (20) Remuneration policies which encourage excessive risk-taking can undermine sound and effective risk management of banks. By complementing relevant existing Union law in this area, and while respecting the rights and roles of social partners, remuneration provisions should contribute to preventing circumvention of the prohibition of proprietary trading. Similarly, it should curtail any residual or hidden proprietary trading activity by core credit institutions when carrying out prudent risk management.
Amendment 145 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 20 (20) Remuneration policies which encourage excessive risk-taking can undermine sound and effective risk management of banks, contribute to the TBTF problem and significantly increase the likelihood of banks acting against societal interests. By complementing relevant existing Union law in this area, remuneration provisions should contribute to preventing circumvention of the prohibition of proprietary trading and excessive speculation. Similarly, it should curtail any residual or hidden proprietary trading activity by core credit institutions when carrying out prudent risk management.

Amendment 148 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 21 a (new) (21 a) The core credit institution should only be permitted to engage in core services to individuals and non-financial institutions, which include taking deposits eligible for deposit insurance, lending, providing payment services, advising on and selling products of other regulated financial institutions without acting as a principal, and a number of other activities. The core credit institution should also be allowed to engage in certain trading activities to the extent that they are aimed at the prudent management of its risk, capital, liquidity and funding and do not pose concerns to its financial stability.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 (24) There are particular concerns in relation to market making. The resolvability of a bank may be impeded by the presence of trading and inventory within a large banking group, as individual trading positions are treated the same way in a resolution process, whether they result from client activity driven market making or from speculation. Additionally, market makers are interconnected with other large banking groups. Furthermore, market makers can be exposed to substantial counterparty risk and the concrete functioning of market making can vary in relation to different financial instruments and market models. Therefore,

The resolvability of a bank may be impeded by the presence of trading and inventory within a large banking group, as individual trading positions are treated the same way in a resolution process, whether they result from client activity driven market making or from speculation. Additionally, market makers are interconnected with other large banking groups. Furthermore, market makers can be exposed to substantial counterparty risk and the concrete functioning of market making can vary in relation to different financial instruments and market models. Market making activities, however, are also indispensable to the well-functioning of the market for corporate bonds and other debt instruments, since liquidity is necessary to make the instruments appropriate for a wide variety of investors. Therefore, particular attention to those activities should be made during the assessment of the competent authority.
Amendment 163 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 (24)
Amendment 164 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 a (new) (24 a) A regulation that aims to prevent excessive risk taking related to trading activities should consider the actual risk taken by banks in trading and provide incentives for banks to diminish their trading-related risk exposures or to increase eligible capital in order to comply with the legislation. The measurement of the size of banks' trading activities should make use, but not exclusively, of the prudential measures of risk exposures provided for in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, since typically those measures capture the actual risk in trading positions better than other measures and since they are clearly defined and controlled through the supervisory framework. Regard should be had to other metrics that might better capture the size of banks’ trading activities.
Amendment 165 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 a (new) (24 a) On the other hand, market making is a necessary component of a well- functioning market for corporate bonds and other debt instruments, since one of the main advantages for investors of such bonds is that they may be traded on a market at all times and contributes positively to financial stability.
Amendment 166 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 a (new) (24a) In a regulation that aims to prevent excessive risk-taking in trading activities, consideration should be given to the actual risk taken by banks when trading and banks should be given an incentive to diminish their trading-related risk exposures or to increase eligible capital in order to comply with the legislation; by measuring the size of banks’ trading activities use can be made of the prudential measures of risk exposures provided for in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013; other measures that may be better suited to assessing the scale of trading activities should also be taken into account;

They should have strong independent governance and separate management bodies. Trading entities within the group are to remain subject to prudential banking supervision, including but not limited to Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and Directive 2013/36/EU.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 29 (29) Irrespective of separation, the core credit institution should still be able to manage its own risk. Certain trading activities should therefore be allowed to the extent that they are aimed at the prudent management of the core credit institution's capital, liquidity and funding and do not pose concerns to its financial stability. Similarly, the core credit institutions needs to be able to provide certain necessary risk management services to its clients. However, that should be done without exposing the core credit institution to unnecessary risk and without posing concerns to its financial stability. Hedging activities eligible for the purpose of prudently managing own risk and for the provision of risk management services to clients can, but does not have to, qualify as hedge accounting under the International Financial Reporting Standards. Irrespective of a decision to separate, the competent authority shall have the power conferred by Article 104(1)(a) of Directive 2013/36/EU to impose an own funds requirement when the volume of risks and trading activities exceeds certain levels, in order to incentivise an institution not to take unnecessary risks for its financial stability or the financial stability of the Union in whole or in part.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 44 a (new) (44 a) The conferral of supervisory tasks implies a significant responsibility for the ECB to safeguard financial stability in the Union, and to use its supervisory powers in the most effective and proportionate way. Any shift of supervisory powers from the Member State to the Union level should be balanced by appropriate transparency and accountability requirements. The ECB should therefore be accountable for the exercise of those tasks towards the European Parliament and the Council as democratically legitimised institutions representing the citizens of the Union and the Member States. That should include regular reporting, and responding to questions by the European Parliament in accordance with its rules of procedure, and by the Eurogroup in accordance with its procedures. Any reporting obligations should be subject to the relevant professional secrecy requirements.

Proposal for a regulation Recital 47 a (new) (47 a) Corporate and investment banking activities are part of global financial system, and are often carried out by the credit institutions from different jurisdictions and under different regulatory regime. They all can compete with each other on various markets worldwide. European regulation of these activities should be set having in mind need to maintain competitiveness of European financial system and ensure a level playing field between European banks and non-European banks.
Amendment 203 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 47 a (new) (47 a) As stated in the Liikanen report, "attention should be paid to the governance and control mechanisms of all banks". More attention should indeed be given by the competent authorities to the ability of management and boards to run and monitor large and complex banks as well as smaller ones as the crisis has shown that small banks represent a risk too. Complementary supervisory tools should be developed such as fit-and- proper tests applied when evaluating the suitability of management and board candidates.

Amendment 299 #
Proposal for a regulation Article 5 a (new) Amendment 91 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 (1) The Union’s financial system includes over 8,000 banks of different sizes, corporate structures and business models, a few of which exist in the form of large banking groups carrying out an all- encompassing set of activities. Those groups comprise a complex web of legal entities and intra-group relationships. They are highly connected to each other through interbank borrowing and lending and through derivatives markets. The impact of possible failures of these large banks can be extremely widespread and significant. Moreover, the financial crisis has demonstrated that important risks could stem from medium-sized banks. In this respect, this Regulation should have a wide scope that encompasses a significant number of credit institutions. It should also complement Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR), Directive 2013/36/EU (CRD4) and Directive 2014/59/EU (BRRD) by mitigating risks of trading entities that are not sufficiently addressed by existing legislation and be further complemented by the forthcoming TLAC standard being developed by the FSB.
Amendment 92 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 a (new) (1a) Banking is a service of general economic interest. The real economy relies on credit to enable it to increase the production of goods and services, and hence to increase per capita income for its citizens and thus their well-being. For this reason, the purpose of banks that take deposits from individuals and undertakings should be to finance productive activity rather than speculation, which does not contribute to the growth of the real economy but increases the risk of financial crises such as the one that started in the United States in summer 2007.
Amendment 93 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 a (new) (1 a) One of the major factors responsible for the crisis that started in 2007 was the interaction between core banking services and investment banking activities. Securitisation markets promoted by investment banking led not only to lower underwriting standards by lenders eager to benefit from the capital velocity and risk transfer the capital markets were offering but also to a glut of liquidity in those markets resulting in exotic and unsafe securitisations replacing high grade government securities in investment and collateral pools in retail banks. The different risks to which real economy focused and capital markets focused banks are exposed can be a source of diversification for a financial system. However, where such activities are combined in large entities sharing the same capital and funding, the systemic diversification effect is significantly reduced as problems in one market can be rapidly transmitted to the other. By ensuring that capital markets activities that are not necessary to the prudent management of risk, capital, funding and liquidity of a core credit institution are conducted in a legally and operationally separate trading entity, this regulation promotes a more resilient banking system where such core credit institutions are much less likely to feed capital markets bubbles or be severely negatively impacted when they burst.
Amendment 94 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 b (new) (1 b) Certain services offered by banks are essential to the lives of private individuals as well as the SMEs that are the backbone of the European economy. It is the duty of the legislator and supervisory bodies to ensure that the banking system can continue to provide such "public good" services throughout the economic cycle. These services include safekeeping of deposits and assets, payment services and lending. A bank that has a close relationship with a customer may also be well placed to offer advice to such clients on suitable products for their risk management challenges, without the bank having to take on board any market or counterparty risk itself. Finally, in order to meet regulatory requirements, raise capital and hedge the market and credit risks that are an inevitable consequence of the core services, a core credit institution may use derivatives, securitisation or other security issuance etc. in order to reduce the volatility of its income or asset values.
Amendment 95 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 c (new) (1 c) It is widely acknowledged that capital markets financing, currently reliant on banks, is underdeveloped in the Union. The Capital Markets Union (CMU) programme that has been announced is aimed at significantly improving non-bank financing of the real economy. Any short term impact on the already inadequate bank mediated capital markets financing due to this Regulation is therefore amply compensated by the benefits of increased systemic resilience of the banking sector and the offsetting effect of the CMU.
Amendment 96 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 (2) The financial crisis has demonstrated the interconnected nature of Union banks and the resulting risk to the financial system. As a result, resolution has to date been challenging, involved entire banking groups, as opposed to only the non-viable parts, and has relied significantly on public support. Financial stability is a supranational public asset the safeguarding of which requires that the financial sector of the economy be adequately regulated and supervised, and without which there can be no lasting and environmentally sustainable economic growth. This regulation seeks to contribute to safeguarding the Union’s financial stability and preventing systemic risk.
Amendment 97 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 (2) The financial crisis has demonstrated the complex and interconnected nature of Union banks and the resulting
Amendment 98 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 a (new) (2 a) The financial crisis and its aftermath have led to a significant shortfall of investments in the European economy. This shortfall is estimated to be between EUR 400 and 700 billion. Any new legislation in the financial sector must take this investment shortfall duly into account and must not compromise any further the ability of the financial sector to invest into the real economy.
Amendment 99 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 a (new) (2 a) The current economic crisis was largely caused by the financial industry where many actors have become too-big- to fail and had to be bailed-out with public funds. In contrast to any market- economy logic, losses were socialised and profits privatised. It needs to be recalled that the key role of financial institutions is to channel savings into productive investments. With the invention of various toxic financial instruments and dubious business practices, which for example set exorbitantly high profit targets, this role has been squeezed out to the benefit of short-term profit maximisation with limited added value for society. It is therefore imperative to reduce the financial sector to its core functions. Hence, institutions that have reached a size and level of interconnectedness which is likely to pose a systemic threat to the functioning of the economies of single Member States or the Union as a whole should be separated as this will in the long term lead to more balanced and sustainable growth.
