The Prudential Supervision and Resolution Authority has declared itself compliant with the European Banking Authority's guidelines on STS criteria for ABCP securitisation (EBA/GL/2018/08) and with the European Banking Authority's guidelines on STS criteria concerning non-ABCP securitisations (EBA/GL/2018/09).

These guidelines are applicable to institutional investors and to initiators, sponsors, original lenders and securitisation entities within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 of 12 December 2017 laying down a general framework for securitisation and creating a specific framework for simple, transparent and standardised securitisation.
