The Governing Board of the Bank of Slovenia issued this regulation to implement European Banking Authority guidelines for assessing Other Systemically Important Institutions (O-SIIs) under Article 131(3) of the Capital Requirements Directive. The rule requires the national central bank to apply defined criteria and disclosure standards when designating domestic O-SIIs, while explicitly replacing the European benchmark capital buffer threshold of 425 basis points with a higher 500 basis point limit. This regulatory framework establishes the legal basis for prudential oversight of systemically important banks in Slovenia and entered into force the day after its September 2015 publication.
