Final draft Regulatory Technical Standards on cooperation and colleges of supervisors for third-country branches

The European Banking Authority issued draft Regulatory Technical Standards to specify cooperation mechanisms and the functioning of colleges of supervisors for third-country branches under Directive 2013/36/EU. These standards establish requirements for mapping group structures, defining membership roles for lead competent authorities and the EBA, and mandating written coordination arrangements for information exchange during both normal and emergency supervisory situations. The measures aim to ensure a harmonized, efficient, and comprehensive supervisory framework for third-country groups operating within the European Union.
