Banks’ supervision and sanctions
Objectives
In November 2014, the ECB officially took over the prudential supervision of credit institutions within the Eurozone through the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).
Although the direct supervisory role of the ECB essentially concerns “significant” credit institutions, “less significant” credit institutions are also under the supervision of the ECB.
This training session aims at providing an enhanced understanding of the SSM, explaining its main features and apprehending its impacts on your organization.
