On November 11, 2015, the EBA, European Securities and Markets
Authority and European Insurance and Occupational Pensions
Authority (known as the Joint Committee of the European Supervisory
Authorities) published two final draft ITS on the mapping of credit
assessments to risk weights of External Credit Assessment
Institutions under the CRR and Solvency II Directive. The ITS aim
to ensure sound credit assessments to encourage financial stability
in the EU and determine an objective approach for attributing risk
weights to the assessment of ECAIs. The final ITS will replace the
Committee of European Banking Supervisors' guidelines on the
recognition of ECAIs as well as the existing mappings of ECAIs'
credit assessments issued by national regulators. The final draft
ITS have been submitted to the European Commission for
endorsement.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
