Circular 3/2020 of the Bank of Spain modifying Circular 4/2017 on financial information and credit risk classification
The Bank of Spain issued Circular 3/2020 to modify Circular 4/2017, allowing credit institutions to classify restructured or refinanced loans as normal risk rather than special watchlist risk if they can rebut the presumption of a significant increase in credit risk. This regulatory adjustment aligns Spanish accounting practices with EBA guidelines and IFRS 9, providing flexibility to support businesses and households during the COVID-19 economic emergency. The modification applies prospectively from June 30, 2020, or optionally from March 31, 2020, without requiring the restatement of prior financial periods.
