specifying uniform conditions for implementing the obligation of
the Single Resolution Board to calculate the contributions of
individual institutions to the Single Resolution Fund under the
Single Resolution Mechanism was published in the Official Journal

used following exercise of resolution powers, for example as a

bank split. It will be contributed to by banks potentially subject
to the resolution regime. The Single Resolution Mechanism applies
to banks in Eurozone and to banks in EU Member States participating
in the Single Supervisory Mechanism. The Regulation will apply from
January 1, 2016 or such time as the available financial means of
the Single Resolution Fund, as set out under the Single Resolution
Mechanism, are met.
