EBA(欧州銀行機構)・ESMA(欧州証券市場機構)、BRRD(銀行再生・破綻処理指令)に基づく個人投資家の銀行債保有に関する共同ステートメントを公表


Default: Change to:


The EBA and the ESMA have published a joint statement encouraging institutions, market and resolution authorities to properly consider retail holders of debt financial instruments subject to the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) when carrying out their respective tasks.


The issue of retail holders of debt financial instruments remains significant considering that, on the basis of the data analysis conducted by EBA and ESMA, retail investors still hold a significant portion of EU debt securities issued by institutions. 

The statement points out that the BRRD does not provide for different treatment of eligible liabilities based on the nature of the holder. Therefore, where there is a material presence of retail debt investors, resolution authorities are encouraged to factor this element into their resolution planning and assessment of possible impediments to resolution.

The EBA and ESMA also call for a cooperative dialogue between resolution and market authorities and the sharing of information when this issue is relevant.

The statement reminds institutions that in relation to:

  • the outstanding legacy stock of issuances of retail debt liabilities, they provide existing clients with complete and updated information on the potential treatment of such investments in resolution or insolvency; and
  • new debt financial instruments being issued under the framework of MiFID II, they properly implement the new requirements, which include a number of provisions aiming at strengthening investor protection.
