COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2024/1872

of 1 July 2024

amending the implementing technical standards laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 as regards the mapping tables specifying the correspondence between the credit risk assessments of external credit assessment institutions and the credit quality steps set out in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 136(1), first subparagraph, thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 ( 2 ) specifies, in its Annex III, the correspondence between the relevant credit assessments issued by an external credit assessment institution (‘ECAI’) and the credit quality steps set out in Part Three, Title II, Chapter 2, Section 2 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (‘mapping’).

(2)

Since the latest amendments introduced by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2005 ( 3 ) , the quantitative and qualitative factors underpinning the credit assessments of some mappings in Annex III to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 have changed due to the additional quantitative information collected and the qualitative developments registered by some ECAIs. In addition, some ECAIs have extended their credit assessments to new market segments, resulting in new rating scales and new credit rating types. It is therefore necessary to update the mappings of the ECAIs concerned.

(3)

Since the adoption of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2005, three ECAIs for which Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 provided a mapping have been deregistered. As Article 136(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 requires the specification of mappings for all ECAIs, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 should be amended to remove the mapping for the deregistered ECAIs.

(4)

Two ECAIs registered in accordance with Articles 14 to 18 of Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 4 ) , and for which a mapping was provided in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799, have changed their names and one registered ECAI has changed the symbols used to denote their rating categories of its rating scales. It is therefore necessary to amend the mapping for those ECAIs to reflect the name changes and current symbols used by those ECAIs.

(5)

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(6)

This Regulation is based on the draft implementing technical standards submitted to the Commission by the European Supervisory Authorities.

(7)

The Joint Committee of the European Supervisory Authorities as referred to in Article 54 of Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010 ( 5 ) , (EU) No 1094/2010 ( 6 ) and (EU) No 1095/2010 ( 7 ) of the European Parliament and of the Council, respectively, has conducted open public consultations on the draft implementing technical standards on which this Regulation is based, analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the advice of the Banking Stakeholder Group, the Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group and the Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of those Regulations, respectively,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 is amended as follows:

Annex III is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union .

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 1 July 2024.

For the Commission

The President

Ursula VON DER LEYEN
