Regulation on the Application of Guidelines on Disclosure of Non-Performing and Forborne Exposures

The Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia issued this regulation to formally apply the European Banking Authority's guidelines on the disclosure of non-performing and forborne exposures to Slovenian credit institutions. The rule mandates that banks subject to specific prudential disclosure requirements under EU Regulation 575/2013 must fully incorporate these uniform disclosure formats into their reporting. This regulation entered into force on 31 December 2022 and simultaneously repealed the previous 2019 regulation on the same subject matter.
