NOTICE

Notice extending to financing companies the European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines (EBA/GL/2026/01) specifying the criteria for identifying the activities referred to in Article 4(1)(18) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013

This notice aims to extend to financing companies the European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines (EBA/GL/2026/01) specifying the criteria for identifying the activities referred to in Article 4(1)(18) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, to which the Prudential Supervision and Resolution Authority (ACPR) has declared itself compliant (cf. Notice published on 23/07/2026).

The ACPR expects financing companies, which do not fall within the definition of "financial institutions" referred to in Article 4(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 establishing the EBA but to which the requirements of Directive 2013/36/EU and Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 apply, to make every effort to comply with the EBA guidelines EBA/GL/2026/01.
