Regulation on the Mergers and Acquisitions of Banks
The Central Bank of the Republic of Kosovo issued this regulation to establish mandatory approval procedures for bank mergers, consolidations, and equity acquisitions. Licensed banks must secure prior written CBK consent before restructuring or acquiring interests in financial and non-financial entities, providing comprehensive documentation on shareholder decisions, management capacity, and economic viability. The regulator evaluates these transactions based on capital impact, organizational integration, and financial stability, enforcing compliance through statutory remedial measures and civil penalties.
