European Banking Authority Publishes Report on Liquidity Coverage Ratio Disclosure

 

On March 8, 2017, the European Banking Authority (“EBA“) issued a report that considered the disclosure requirements in relation to the liquidity coverage ratio.

As it stands, European regulation specifies the liquidity coverage ratio for credit institutions, with the goal of maintaining a buffer against stressed situations and acting as an important tool in the assessment of risk management.

The guidelines that have been published harmonize and specify the necessary disclosures applicable to credit institutions. The final guidelines are available here.
