Eba takes action in favor of npl securitizations

Posted on by

The European Banking Authority (EBA) has recently come out in favor of securitization of non-performing loans (NPLs). The EBA justifies its position on the basis that NPL securitizations can accelerate the lending cycle and thus benefit the economy.
As a consequence of the financial crisis, stricter rules for securitization have been introduced by the EU. However, these ensure that banks have to meet higher capital requirements for NPL securitizations. The EBA is therefore calling for a review of these rules to make securitization of non-performing loans more attractive.
As a result, securitization of NPLs could be increasingly used in the future to reduce the risk of non-performing loans and stabilize the banking sector. The EBA expects this development to have positive effects for the economy and the consumer.
