Prudential Regulation Review 

April 2020

Prudential Regulatory Review is a monthly newsletter dedicated to summarising all major risk and regulatory updates.

Prudential Regulation Review - latest edition

March was a month marked by the rapid global spread of COVID-19, resulting in an international economic crisis as governments around the world implemented work and travel restrictions aimed at slowing the spread of the virus.

Governments, central banks and regulators have announced unprecedented monetary and fiscal actions, together with measures to ensure sufficient system liquidity, to respond to the crisis. We have therefore added “COVID-19” regulatory developments as an exceptional category this month, and will continue reporting it until the crisis eases.

At the European level, and consistent with action taken by national supervisors, all ESAs have announced a range of measures to lessen the burden of routine supervision on firms in these difficult times. For example, EIOPA has recommended that national supervisors show supervisory flexibility regarding the deadlines insurers have to meet for supervisory reporting and public disclosures.

Other topics covered include:

  • COVID-19
  • Banking
  • Capital Markets
  • Investment Management
  • Central Bank of Ireland
