Austrian Savings Banks Act (SpG)

The Austrian Federal Act of 24 January 1979 regulates the savings bank sector by defining legal entities, ownership structures, and operational requirements. It establishes distinct frameworks for municipal and association-based savings banks, detailing capital obligations, liability rules, and governance bodies such as the Sparkassenrat. The legislation mandates strict oversight by the Financial Market Authority (FMA) regarding statutes, membership, and financial reporting to ensure stability within the credit institution sector.
