Supervisory Disclosure
Introduction
The supervisory disclosure section presents a detailed picture of the supervisory and regulatory practices in Germany.
On basis of the recast Directive 2006/48/EC all EU member states are required to present information regarding the laws, regulations, administrative rules and general guidance in the field of prudential regulation and supervision. The information contains the way in which Germany has exercised options and national discretions available in EU banking legislation. Further, it contains general criteria and methodologies used in the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP). Aggregate statistical data on key aspects of the implementation of the prudential framework will be displayed.
The content of this page is organised in four sections:
Each of these sections will give details on how Germany has implemented the relevant parts of the Capital Requirements Directive, comprising Directive 2006/48/EC (Banking Directive) and Directive 2006/49/EC (Capital Adequacy Directive).
The structure of this page and the minimum requirements of supervisory disclosure have been laid down in the CEBS guidelines on supervisory disclosure, see CEBS Guidelines on Supervisory Disclosure (CL 05) as well as the updates to these guidelines.
For a comprehensive overview of supervisory and regulatory practices in Europe, which enables to draw a meaningful comparison of the approaches adopted by the competent supervisory authorities in other Member States please view CEBS Supervisory Disclosure.
