EBA(欧州銀行機構)・ESMA(欧州証券市場機構)、CRD IV(第4次資本要求指令)及びMiFID II(第2次金融商品市場指令)における金融機関の役員等の適格性に関する最終ガイドラインを公表


Default: Change to:


These Guidelines aim to harmonise and improve suitability assessments within EU financial sectors, and to ensure sound governance arrangements in financial institutions in line with the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD IV) and the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II).


The Guidelines highlight the importance for institutions to consider whether candidates have the knowledge, qualification and skills necessary to safeguard proper and prudent management of the institution. The Guidelines also foster more diverse management bodies and, therefore, contribute to improved risk oversight and resilience of institutions. 

CRD and MiFID II include measures to remedy weaknesses identified during the financial crisis regarding the functioning and composition of the management body within credit institutions and investment firms and the qualifications of their members. When appointing members of the management body, institutions should ensure that the members have the reputation, knowledge, experience and skills necessary to safeguard proper and prudent management of the institution. 

These joint Guidelines specify the notions of:

  • sufficient time commitment,
  • adequate collective knowledge, skills and experience,
  • honesty, integrity and independence of mind,
  • adequate human and financial resources for induction and training of members of the management body and
  • diversity, which is to be considered in the selection process. 

In particular, the members of the management body should have sufficient time to cover all the necessary subjects in depth, in particular the establishment of business and risk strategies and the management of the main risks. The management body, collectively, should possess adequate knowledge, skills and experience to understand the institution's activities, including the main risks. In this respect, the Guidelines provide a non-mandatory tool, covering all relevant areas of knowledge and experience that should facilitate the assessment of its collective suitability. 

Additionally, the Guidelines provide further guidance on the scope of assessments to be made, the assessment process for institutions and competent authorities, and related policies.
