EBA issues RTS on own funds and eligible liabilities

In the course of the adoption of the ‘Risk Reduction Measures Package’ by European legislators in May
2019, CRR2 updated the own funds framework with certain targeted adjustments. The amended RTS have
been issued to provide further guidance and to capture several aspects of eligible liabilities as well as the
changes to the own fund’s framework.
In this alert you will read more about key amendments introduced by the newly issued RTS and also on the proportionate treatment of liquidation entities for which the resolution authority has set the MREL at a level that does not exceed an amount sufficient to absorb losses (LAA).
