TITLE II

PREPARATION

CHAPTER I

Recovery and resolution planning

Section 1

General provisions

Article 4

Simplified obligations for certain institutions

1.  

Having regard to the impact that the failure of the institution could have, due to the nature of its business, its shareholding structure, its legal form, its risk profile, size and legal status, its interconnectedness to other institutions or to the financial system in general, the scope and the complexity of its activities, its membership of an IPS or other cooperative mutual solidarity systems as referred to in Article 113(7) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and any exercise of investment services or activities as defined in point (2) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU, and whether its failure and subsequent winding up under normal insolvency proceedings would be likely to have a significant negative effect on financial markets, on other institutions, on funding conditions, or on the wider economy, Member States shall ensure that competent and resolution authorities determine:

(a) 

the contents and details of recovery and resolution plans provided for in Articles 5 to 12;

(b) 

the date by which the first recovery and resolution plans are to be drawn up and the frequency for updating recovery and resolution plans which may be lower than that provided for in Article 5(2), Article 7(5), Article 10(6) and Article 13(3);

(c) 

the contents and details of the information required from institutions as provided for in Article 5(5), Article 11(1) and Article 12(2) and in Sections A and B of the Annex;

(d) 

the level of detail for the assessment of resolvability provided for in Articles 15 and 16, and Section C of the Annex.

2.  
Competent authorities and, where relevant, resolution authorities shall make the assessment referred to in paragraph 1 after consulting, where appropriate, the national macroprudential authority.
3.  
Member States shall ensure that where simplified obligations are applied the competent authorities and, where relevant, resolution authorities can impose full, unsimplified obligations at any time.
4.  
Member States shall ensure that the application of simplified obligations shall not, per se, affect the competent authority’s and, where relevant, the resolution authority’s powers to take a crisis prevention measure or a crisis management measure.
5.  
EBA shall, by 3 July 2015, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 to specify the criteria referred to in paragraph 1, for assessing, in accordance with that paragraph, the impact of an institution’s failure on financial markets, on other institutions and on funding conditions.
6.  
Taking into account, where appropriate, experience acquired in the application of the guidelines referred to in paragraph 5, EBA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify the criteria referred to in paragraph 1, for assessing, in accordance with that paragraph, the impact of an institution’s failure on financial markets, on other institutions and on funding conditions.

EBA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by 3 July 2017.

Power is conferred on the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

7.  
Competent authorities and resolution authorities shall inform EBA of the way they have applied paragraphs 1, 8, 9 and 10 to institutions in their jurisdiction. EBA shall submit a report to the European Parliament, to the Council and to the Commission by 31 December 2017 on the implementation of paragraphs 1, 8, 9 and 10. In particular, that report shall identify any divergences regarding the implementation at national level of paragraphs 1, 8,9 and 10.
8.  

Subject to paragraphs 9 and 10, Member States shall ensure that competent authorities and, where relevant, resolution authorities may waive the application of:

(a) 

the requirements of Sections 2 and 3 of this Chapter to institutions affiliated to a central body and wholly or partially exempted from prudential requirements in national law in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013;

(b) 

the requirements of Section 2 to institutions which are members of an IPS.

9.  

Where a waiver pursuant to paragraph 8 is granted, Member States shall:

(a) 

apply the requirements of Sections 2 and 3 of this Chapter on a consolidated basis to the central body and institutions affiliated to it within the meaning of Article 10 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013;

(b) 

require the IPS to fulfil the requirements of Section 2 in cooperation with each of its waived members.

For that purpose, any reference in Sections 2 and 3 of this Chapter to a group shall include a central body and institutions affiliated to it within the meaning of Article 10 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and their subsidiaries, and any reference to parent undertakings or institutions that are subject to consolidated supervision pursuant to Article 111 of Directive 2013/36/EU shall include the central body.

10.  
Institutions subject to direct supervision by the European Central Bank pursuant to Article 6(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013 or constituting a significant share in the financial system of a Member State shall draw up their own recovery plans in accordance with Section 2 of this Chapter and shall be the subject of individual resolution plans in accordance with Section 3.

For the purposes of this paragraph, the operations of an institution shall be considered to constitute a significant share of that Member State’s financial system if any of the following conditions are met:

(a) 

the total value of its assets exceeds EUR 30 000 000 000 ; or

(b) 

the ratio of its total assets over the GDP of the Member State of establishment exceeds 20 %, unless the total value of its assets is below EUR 5 000 000 000 .

11.  
EBA shall develop draft implementing technical standards to specify uniform formats, templates and definitions for the identification and transmission of information by competent authorities and resolution authorities to EBA for the purposes of paragraph 7, subject to the principle of proportionality.

EBA shall submit those draft implementing technical standards to the Commission by 3 July 2015.

Power is conferred on the Commission to adopt the implementing technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

Section 2

Recovery planning

Article 5

Recovery plans

1.  
Member States shall ensure that each institution, that is not part of a group subject to consolidated supervision pursuant to Articles 111 and 112 of Directive 2013/36/EU, draws up and maintains a recovery plan providing for measures to be taken by the institution to restore its financial position following a significant deterioration of its financial situation. Recovery plans shall be considered to be a governance arrangement within the meaning of Article 74 of Directive 2013/36/EU.
2.  
Competent authorities shall ensure that the institutions update their recovery plans at least annually or after a change to the legal or organisational structure of the institution, its business or its financial situation, which could have a material effect on, or necessitates a change to, the recovery plan. Competent authorities may require institutions to update their recovery plans more frequently.
3.  
Recovery plans shall not assume any access to or receipt of extraordinary public financial support.
4.  
Recovery plans shall include, where applicable, an analysis of how and when an institution may apply, in the conditions addressed by the plan, for the use of central bank facilities and identify those assets which would be expected to qualify as collateral.
5.  
Without prejudice to Article 4, Member States shall ensure that the recovery plans include the information listed in Section A of the Annex. Member States may require that additional information is included in the recovery plans.

Recovery plans shall also include possible measures which could be taken by the institution where the conditions for early intervention under Article 27 are met.

6.  
Member States shall require that recovery plans include appropriate conditions and procedures to ensure the timely implementation of recovery actions as well as a wide range of recovery options. Member States shall require that recovery plans contemplate a range of scenarios of severe macroeconomic and financial stress relevant to the institution’s specific conditions including system-wide events and stress specific to individual legal persons and to groups.
7.  
EBA, in close cooperation with the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB), shall, by 3 July 2015, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 to specify further the range of scenarios to be used for the purposes of paragraph 6 of this Article.
8.  
Member States may provide that competent authorities have the power to require an institution to maintain detailed records of financial contracts to which the institution concerned is a party.
9.  
The management body of the institution referred to in paragraph 1 shall assess and approve the recovery plan before submitting it to the competent authority.
10.  
EBA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards further specifying, without prejudice to Article 4, the information to be contained in the recovery plan referred to in paragraph 5 of this Article.

EBA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by 3 July 2015.

Power is delegated to the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

Article 6

Assessment of recovery plans

1.  
Member States shall require institutions that are required to draw up recovery plans under Article 5(1) and Article 7(1) to submit those recovery plans to the competent authority for review. Member States shall require institutions to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the competent authority that those plans meet the criteria of paragraph 2.
2.  

The competent authorities shall, within six months of the submission of each plan, and after consulting the competent authorities of the Member States where significant branches are located insofar as is relevant to that branch, review it and assess the extent to which it satisfies the requirements laid down in Article 5 and the following criteria:

(a) 

the implementation of the arrangements proposed in the plan is reasonably likely to maintain or restore the viability and financial position of the institution or of the group, taking into account the preparatory measures that the institution has taken or has planned to take;

(b) 

the plan and specific options within the plan are reasonably likely to be implemented quickly and effectively in situations of financial stress and avoiding to the maximum extent possible any significant adverse effect on the financial system, including in scenarios which would lead other institutions to implement recovery plans within the same period.

3.  
When assessing the appropriateness of the recovery plans, the competent authority shall take into consideration the appropriateness of the institution’s capital and funding structure to the level of complexity of the organisational structure and the risk profile of the institution.
4.  
The competent authority shall provide the recovery plan to the resolution authority. The resolution authority may examine the recovery plan with a view to identifying any actions in the recovery plan which may adversely impact the resolvability of the institution and make recommendations to the competent authority with regard to those matters.
5.  
Where the competent authority assesses that there are material deficiencies in the recovery plan, or material impediments to its implementation, it shall notify the institution or the parent undertaking of the group of its assessment and require the institution to submit, within two months, extendable with the authorities’ approval by one month, a revised plan demonstrating how those deficiencies or impediments are addressed.

Before requiring an institution to resubmit a recovery plan the competent authority shall give the institution the opportunity to state its opinion on that requirement.

Where the competent authority does not consider the deficiencies and impediments to have been adequately addressed by the revised plan, it may direct the institution to make specific changes to the plan.

6.  
If the institution fails to submit a revised recovery plan, or if the competent authority determines that the revised recovery plan does not adequately remedy the deficiencies or potential impediments identified in its original assessment, and it is not possible to adequately remedy the deficiencies or impediments through a direction to make specific changes to the plan, the competent authority shall require the institution to identify within a reasonable timeframe changes it can make to its business in order to address the deficiencies in or impediments to the implementation of the recovery plan.

If the institution fails to identify such changes within the timeframe set by the competent authority, or if the competent authority assesses that the actions proposed by the institution would not adequately address the deficiencies or impediments, the competent authority may direct the institution to take any measures it considers to be necessary and proportionate, taking into account the seriousness of the deficiencies and impediments and the effect of the measures on the institution’s business.

The competent authority may, without prejudice to Article 104 of Directive 2013/36/EU, direct the institution to:

(a) 

reduce the risk profile of the institution, including liquidity risk;

(b) 

enable timely recapitalisation measures;

(c) 

review the institution’s strategy and structure;

(d) 

make changes to the funding strategy so as to improve the resilience of the core business lines and critical functions;

(e) 

make changes to the governance structure of the institution.

The list of measures referred to in this paragraph does not preclude Member States from authorising competent authorities to take additional measures under national law.

7.  
When the competent authority requires an institution to take measures according to paragraph 6, its decision on the measures shall be reasoned and proportionate.

The decision shall be notified in writing to the institution and subject to a right of appeal.

8.  
EBA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards specifying the minimum criteria that the competent authority is to assess for the purposes of the assessment of paragraph 2 of this Article and of Article 8(1).

EBA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by 3 July 2015.

Power is delegated to the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

Article 7

Group recovery plans

1.  
Member States shall ensure that Union parent undertakings draw up and submit to the consolidating supervisor a group recovery plan. Group recovery plans shall consist of a recovery plan for the group headed by the Union parent undertaking as a whole. The group recovery plan shall identify measures that may be required to be implemented at the level of the Union parent undertaking and each individual subsidiary.
2.  
In accordance with Article 8, competent authorities may require subsidiaries to draw up and submit recovery plans on an individual basis.
3.  

The consolidating supervisor shall, provided that the confidentiality requirements laid down in this Directive are in place, transmit the group recovery plans to:

(a) 

the relevant competent authorities referred to in Articles 115 and 116 of Directive 2013/36/EU;

(b) 

the competent authorities of the Member States where significant branches are located insofar as is relevant to that branch;

(c) 

the group- level resolution authority; and

(d) 

the resolution authorities of subsidiaries.

4.  
The group recovery plan shall aim to achieve the stabilisation of the group as a whole, or any institution of the group, when it is in a situation of stress so as to address or remove the causes of the distress and restore the financial position of the group or the institution in question, at the same time taking into account the financial position of other group entities.

The group recovery plan shall include arrangements to ensure the coordination and consistency of measures to be taken at the level of the Union parent undertaking, at the level of the entities referred to in points (c) and (d) of Article 1(1) as well as measures to be taken at the level of subsidiaries and, where applicable, in accordance with Directive 2013/36/EU at the level of significant branches.

5.  
The group recovery plan, and any plan drawn up for an individual subsidiary, shall include the elements specified in Article 5. Those plans shall include, where applicable, arrangements for intra-group financial support adopted pursuant to an agreement for intra-group financial support that has been concluded in accordance with Chapter III.
6.  
Group recovery plans shall include a range of recovery options setting out actions to address those scenarios provided for in Article 5(6).

For each of the scenarios, the group recovery plan shall identify whether there are obstacles to the implementation of recovery measures within the group, including at the level of individual entities covered by the plan, and whether there are substantial practical or legal impediments to the prompt transfer of own funds or the repayment of liabilities or assets within the group.

7.  
The management body of the entity drawing up the group recovery plan pursuant to paragraph 1 shall assess and approve the group recovery plan before submitting it to the consolidating supervisor.

Article 8

Assessment of group recovery plans

1.  
The consolidating supervisor shall, together with the competent authorities of subsidiaries, after consulting the competent authorities referred to in Article 116 of Directive 2013/36/EU and with the competent authorities of significant branches insofar as is relevant to the significant branch, review the group recovery plan and assess the extent to which it satisfies the requirements and criteria laid down in Articles 6 and 7. That assessment shall be made in accordance with the procedure established in Article 6 and with this Article and shall take into account the potential impact of the recovery measures on financial stability in all the Member States where the group operates.
2.  

The consolidating supervisor and the competent authorities of subsidiaries shall endeavour to reach a joint decision on:

(a) 

the review and assessment of the group recovery plan;

(b) 

whether a recovery plan on an individual basis shall be drawn up for institutions that are part of the group; and

(c) 

the application of the measures referred to in Article 6(5) and (6).

The parties shall endeavour to reach a joint decision within four months of the date of the transmission by the consolidating supervisor of the group recovery plan in accordance with Article 7(3).

EBA may, at the request of a competent authority, assist the competent authorities in reaching a joint decision in accordance with Article 31(c) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

3.  
In the absence of a joint decision between the competent authorities, within four months of the date of transmission, on the review and assessment of the group recovery plan or on any measures the Union parent undertaking is required to take in accordance with Article 6(5) and (6), the consolidating supervisor shall make its own decision with regard to those matters. The consolidating supervisor shall make its decision having taken into account the views and reservations of the other competent authorities expressed during the four-month period. The consolidating supervisor shall notify the decision to the Union parent undertaking and to the other competent authorities.

If, at the end of that four-month period, any of the competent authorities referred to in paragraph 2 has referred a matter mentioned in paragraph 7 to EBA in accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, the consolidating supervisor shall defer its decision and await any decision that EBA may take in accordance with Article 19(3) of that Regulation, and shall take its decision in accordance with the decision of EBA. The four-month period shall be deemed to be the conciliation period within the meaning of the Regulation. EBA shall take its decision within one month. The matter shall not be referred to EBA after the end of the four-month period or after a joint decision has been reached. In the absence of an EBA decision within one month, the decision of the consolidating supervisor shall apply.

4.  

In the absence of a joint decision between the competent authorities within four months of the date of transmission on:

(a) 

whether a recovery plan on an individual basis is to be drawn up for the institutions under its jurisdiction; or

(b) 

the application at subsidiary level of the measures referred to in Article 6(5) and (6);

each competent authority shall make its own decision on that matter.

If, at the end of the four-month period, any of the competent authorities concerned has referred a matter mentioned in paragraph 7 to EBA in accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, the competent authority of the subsidiary shall defer its decision and await any decision that EBA may take in accordance with Article 19(3) of that Regulation, and shall take its decision in accordance with the decision of EBA. The four-month period shall be deemed to be the conciliation period within the meaning of that Regulation. EBA shall take its decision within one month. The matter shall not be referred to EBA after the end of the four-month period or after a joint decision has been reached. In the absence of an EBA decision within one month, the decision of the competent authority responsible for the subsidiary at an individual level shall apply.

5.  
The other competent authorities which do not disagree under paragraph 4 may reach a joint decision on a group recovery plan covering group entities under their jurisdictions.
6.  
The joint decision referred to in paragraph 2 or 5 and the decisions taken by the competent authorities in the absence of a joint decision referred to in paragraphs 3 and 4 shall be recognised as conclusive and applied by the competent authorities in the Member States concerned.
7.  
Upon request of a competent authority in accordance with paragraph 3 or 4, EBA may only assist the competent authorities in reaching an agreement in accordance with Article 19(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 in relation to the assessment of recovery plans and implementation of the measures of point (a), (b) and (d) of Article 6(6).

Article 9

Recovery Plan Indicators

1.  
For the purpose of Articles 5 to 8, competent authorities shall require that each recovery plan includes a framework of indicators established by the institution which identifies the points at which appropriate actions referred to in the plan may be taken. Such indicators shall be agreed by competent authorities when making the assessment of recovery plans in accordance with Articles 6 and 8. The indicators may be of a qualitative or quantitative nature relating to the institution’s financial position and shall be capable of being monitored easily. Competent authorities shall ensure that institutions put in place appropriate arrangements for the regular monitoring of the indicators.

Notwithstanding the first subparagraph, an institution may:

(a) 

take action under its recovery plan where the relevant indicator has not been met, but where the management body of the institution considers it to be appropriate in the circumstances; or

(b) 

refrain from taking such an action where the management body of the institution does not consider it to be appropriate in the circumstances of the situation.

Resolvability

Article 15

Assessment of resolvability for institutions

1.  

Member States shall ensure that, after the resolution authority has consulted the competent authority and the resolution authorities of the jurisdictions in which significant branches are located insofar as is relevant to the significant branch, it assesses the extent to which an institution which is not part of a group is resolvable without the assumption of any of the following:

any extraordinary public financial support besides the use of the financing arrangements established in accordance with Article 100;

(b) 

any central bank emergency liquidity assistance;

(c) 

any central bank liquidity assistance provided under non-standard collateralisation, tenor and interest rate terms.

An institution shall be deemed to be resolvable if it is feasible and credible for the resolution authority to either liquidate it under normal insolvency proceedings or to resolve it by applying the different resolution tools and powers to the institution while avoiding to the maximum extent possible any significant adverse effect on the financial system, including in circumstances of broader financial instability or system-wide events, of the Member State in which the institution is established, or other Member States or the Union and with a view to ensuring the continuity of critical functions carried out by the institution. The resolution authorities shall notify EBA in a timely manner whenever an institution is deemed not to be resolvable.

2.  
For the purposes of the assessment of resolvability referred to in paragraph 1, the resolution authority shall, as a minimum, examine the matters specified in Section C of the Annex.

1.  

Member States shall ensure that group-level resolution authorities, together with the resolution authorities of subsidiaries, after consulting the consolidating supervisor and the competent authorities of such subsidiaries, and the resolution authorities of the jurisdictions in which significant branches are located insofar as is relevant to the significant branch, assess the extent to which groups are resolvable without the assumption of any of the following:

(a) 

any extraordinary public financial support besides the use of the financing arrangements established in accordance with Article 100;

(b) 

any central bank emergency liquidity assistance;

(c) 

any central bank liquidity assistance provided under non-standard collateralisation, tenor and interest rate terms.

Measfar go bhfuil grúpa inréitithe má bhíonn sé indéanta agus inchreidte ag na húdaráis réitigh grúpeintitis a fhoirceannadh faoi ghnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta nó an grúpa sin a réiteach trí uirlisí réitigh a fheidhmiú, agus cumhachtaí réitigh a fheidhmiú i dtaca le heintitis réitigh an ghrúpeintitis sin agus a mhéid is mó is féidir, aon iarmhairtí díobhálacha suntasacha a sheachaint i gcórais airgeadais na mBallstát ina bhfuil grúpeintitis nó brainsí lonnaithe, nó na mBallstát eile, nó an Aontais, lena n-áirítear éagobhsaíocht airgeadais nó teagmhais shistéamacha, chun a áirithiú go leanfar d'fheidhmeanna criticiúla a dhéanann na grúpeintitis sin, i gcás inar féidir iad a dheighilt go héasca agus go tráthúil nó ar bhealach eile.

Tabharfaidh údaráis réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa fógra do ÚBE ar bhealach tráthúil cibé uair a meastar nach bhfuil grúpa inréitithe.

▼B

The assessment of group resolvability shall be taken into consideration by the resolution colleges referred to in Article 88.

2.  
For the purposes of the assessment of group resolvability, resolution authorities shall, as a minimum, examine the matters specified in Section C of the Annex.
3.  
The assessment of group resolvability under this Article shall be made at the same time as, and for the purposes of drawing up and updating of the group resolution plans in accordance with Article 12. The assessment shall be made under the decision-making procedure laid down in Article 13.

dáileachán a dhéanamh i ndáil le caipiteal Gnáthchothromas Leibhéal 1;

(b) 

oibleagáid a chruthú chun luach saothair inathraitheach nó sochair phinsin lánroghnacha a íoc nó luach saothair inathraitheach a íoc más rud é gur cruthaíodh an oibleagáid chun íoc tráth ar mhainnigh an t-eintiteas an ceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte a chomhlíonadh; nó

(c) 

íocaíochtaí a dhéanamh ar ionstraimí Breise Leibhéal 1.

I gcás ina mbeidh eintiteas sa chás dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír, tabharfaidh sé fógra láithreach don údarás réitigh maidir leis an gcliseadh sin.

(a) 

cúis na mainneachtana, fad agus mhéid na mainneachtana sin agus an tionchar atá aici ar inréititheacht;

(b) 

dul chun cinn staid airgeadais an eintitis agus an dóchúlacht go bhféadfaidh sé, amach anseo, an coinníoll dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) d'Airteagal 32(1) a chomhlíonadh;

(c) 

an t-ionchas go mbeidh an t-eintiteas in ann a áirithiú go gcomhlíonfar na gceanglas dá dtagraítear i mír 1 laistigh de thréimhse ama réasúnta;

(d) 

i gcás nach mbeidh an t-eintitis in ann dliteanais a chur in ionad dliteanas nach gcomhlíonann na critéir incháilitheachta ná aibíochta a leagtar síos in Airteagal 72b agus 72c de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, nó in Airteagal 45b nó 45f(2) den Treoir seo a thuilleadh, más rud é go bhfuil an neamhábaltacht sin neamhghnách nó más toradh ar shuaitheadh ar fud an mhargaidh í;

(e) 

arb é feidhmiú na cumhachta dá dtagraítear i mír 1 an modh is leordhóthanaí agus is comhréirí chun aghaidh a thabhairt ar chás an eintitis bunaithe, ag cur san áireamh go háirithe an tionchar a d'fhéadfadh a bheith aige ar choinníollacha maoinithe agus ar inréititheacht an eintitis sin.

Déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a mheasúnú an athuair le féachaint faoin gcumhacht dá dtagraítear i mír 1 a fheidhmiú gach mí ar a a fhad is a leanann an t-eintiteas de bheith sa chás dá dtagraítear i mír 1.

3.  

Má chinneann an t-údarás réitigh go bhfuil an t-eintiteas fós sa chás dá dtagraítear i mír 1 naoi mhí tar éis fógra faoi chás mar sin a fháil ón eintiteas, déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh, tar éis dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, an chumhacht dá dtagraítear i mír 1 a fheidhmiú ach amháin má chinneann an t-údarás réitigh, tar éis dó measúnú a dhéanamh, go gcomhlíontar dhá cheann de na coinníollacha seo a leanas ar a laghad:

(a) 

tarlaíonn an cliseadh mar gheall ar shuaitheadh tromchúiseach i bhfeidhmiú na margaí airgeadais, as a n-eascraíonn strus forleathan sa mhargadh airgeadais in an-chuid deighleoga de na margaí airgeadais;

(b) 

an suaitheadh dá dtagraítear i bpointe (i), ní hamháin go mbíonn luaineacht mhéadaithe i bpraghas ionstraimí cistí dílse agus ionstraimí dliteanas incháilithe an eintitis nó costais bhreise don eintiteas mar gheall air, ach chomh maith leis sin dúntar na margaí go hiomlán nó go páirteach, rud a chuireann cosc ar an eintiteas ionstraimí cistí dílse agus ionstraimí dliteanas incháilithe a eisiúint ar na margaí sin;

(c) 

feictear go mbaineann dúnadh na margaí dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b) ní hamháin leis an eintitis sin amháin ach le roinnt eintiteas eile freisin;

(d) 

leis an suaitheadh dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) toirmisctear an t-eintiteas i dtrácht go leor ionstraimí cistí dílse agus ionstraimí dliteanas incháilithe a eisiúint chun an sárú a leigheas;

(e) 

eascraíonn éifeachtaí iarmharta diúltacha as feidhmiú na cumhachta dá dtagraítear i mír 1 do chuid den earnáil baincéireachta, rud a d'fhéadfadh an bonn a bhaint de chobhsaíocht airgeadais.

Nuair a bhíonn an eisceacht dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír i bhfeidhm, tabharfaidh an t-údarás réitigh fógra don údarás inniúil maidir lena chinneadh agus míneoidh sé a mheasúnú i scríbhinn.

Gach mí, déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a mheasúnú an athuair i dtaobh an féidir an eisceacht dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír a chur i bhfeidhm.

4.  
Ríomhfar M-MDA tríd an tsuim arna ríomh i gcomhréir le mír 5 a iolrú faoin bhfachtóir arna chinneadh i gcomhréir le mír 6. Laghdófar M-MDA de réir mhéid ar bith a bhíonn mar thoradh ar cheann ar bith de na gníomhaíochtaí dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a), (b) nó (c) de mhír 1.

Powers to address or remove impediments to resolvability

▼M3

1.  
Tráth a gcinnfidh údarás réitigh – ar dhul i gcomhairle dó leis an údarás inniúil de bhun measúnacht inréititheachta arna dhéanamh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 15 agus 16, agus ar dhul i gcomhairle dó leis an údarás inniúil – go bhfuil baic shubstaintiúla roimh inréiteacht an eintitis sin, áiritheoidh na Ballstáit go gcuirfidh an t-údarás réitigh sin an cinneadh sin in iúl i scríbhinn don eintiteas a bheidh i gceist, don údarás inniúil, agus do na húdaráis réitigh sna ndlínsí ina bhfuil brainsí suntasacha suite.

▼B

2.  
The requirement for resolution authorities to draw up resolution plans and for the relevant resolution authorities to reach a joint decision on group resolution plans in Article 10(1) and Article 13(4) respectively shall be suspended following the notification referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article until the measures to remove the substantive impediments to resolvability have been accepted by the resolution authority pursuant to paragraph 3 of this Article or decided pursuant to paragraph 4 of this Article.

▼M3

3.  
Laistigh de cheithre mhí tar éis an dáta a bhfaighfear fógra arna thabhairt i gcomhréir le mír 1, molfaidh an t-eintiteas don údarás réitigh bearta a d'fhéadfaí a ghlacadh chun dul i ngleic leis na baic a shainaithnítear san fhógra nó chun deireadh a chur leo.

Tráth nach déanaí ná dhá sheachtain ón dáta a bhfaighfear fógra arna thabhairt i gcomhréir le mír 1 den Airteagal seo, molfaidh an t-eintiteas don údarás réitigh bearta féideartha maille le hamlíne lena gcur chun feidhme d'fhonn a áirithiú go gcloíonn an t-eintiteas le hAirteagal 45e nó Airteagal 45f den Treoir seo agus leis an gceanglas maoláin chomhceangailte, i gcás gur i ngeall ar cheann díobh seo a leanas atá bac roimh inréititheacht an eintitis sin:

(a) 

sásaíonn an t-eintiteas an ceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte nuair a mheastar é anuas ar gach ceann de na ceanglais dá dtagraítear i bpointí (a), (b) agus (c) d'Airteagal 141a(1) de Threoir 2013/36/AE, ach ní shásaíonn sé an ceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte nuair a mheastar é anuas ar na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45c agus 45d den Treoir seo arna ríomh i gcomhréir le pointe (a) d'Airteagal 45(2) den Treoir seo; nó

(b) 

ní chomhlíonann an t-eintiteas na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 92a agus Airteagal 494 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 ná na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45c agus 45d den Treoir seo.

Cuirfear na cúiseanna atá leis an mbac substainteach san áireamh san amlíne faoina gcuirfear chun feidhme na bearta arna moladh sa dara fomhír.

Déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh, ar dhul i gcomhairle dó leis an údarás inniúil, measúnú a dhéanamh an dtugtar aghaidh go héifeachtach, leis na bearta a mholtar sa chéad fhomhír agus sa dara fomhír, ar an mbac substainteach atá i gceist nó an gcuirtear deireadh leis.

4.  
I gcás ina chinneann an t-údarás réitigh nach ndéanann na bearta, arna moladh ag an eintiteas i gcomhréir le mír 3, na baic atá i gceist a laghdú nó a bhaint go leordhóthanach, iarrfaidh sé ar an eintiteas go díreach nó go hindíreach tríd an údarás inniúil, bearta malartacha a ghlacadh lena bhféadfaí an cuspóir sin a bhaint amach, agus cuirfidh sé na bearta sin in iúl i scríbhinn don eintiteas, agus molfaidh an t-eintiteas laistigh de mhí plean faoina gcomhlíonfar na bearta sin.

Agus bearta malartacha á sainaithint aige, taispeánfaidh an t-údarás réitigh conas nach mbeadh na bearta a mhol an t-eintiteas in ann na baic ar inréititheacht a bhaint agus conas atá na bearta malartacha atá á moladh comhréireach chun iad a bhaint. Cuirfidh an t-údarás réitigh san áireamh an bhagairt atá ann don chobhsaíocht airgeadais sna baic sin roimh an inréititheacht mar aon le héifeacht na mbeart ar chúrsaí gnó an eintitis gona chobhsaíocht agus a chumas rannchuidiú leis an ngeilleagar.

(ja) 

chun a áirithiú go gcomhlíonfar go leanúnach Airteagal 45e nó Airteagal 45f, a cheangal ar institiúid nó ar eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1), próifíl aibíochta a athrú i dtaca le:

Article 18

Powers to address or remove impediments to resolvability: group treatment

▼M3

1.  
Déanfaidh údarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa, in éineacht le húdaráis réitigh na bhfochuideachtaí, ar dhul i gcomhairle dóibh leis an gcoláiste maoirseachta agus údaráis mhaoirseachta na ndlínsí ina bhfuil brainsí suntasacha suite a mhéid is ábhartha don bhrainse suntasach, machnamh faoin measúnú a leagtar síos mar cheangal in Airteagal 16 laistigh den choláiste réitigh agus tabharfaidh siad na céimeanna uile atá réasúnta chun cinneadh comhpháirteach a dhéanamh faoi bheart a chur i bhfeidhm a sainaithníodh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 17(4) i ndáil leis na heintitis réitigh uile agus lena bhfochuideachtaí ar eintitis iad dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 1(1) agus ar cuid den ghrúpa iad.
2.  
Déanfaidh údarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa, in éineacht leis an maoirseoir comhdhlúthaithe agus le ÚBE i gcomhréir le Airteagal 25(1) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010, tuarascáil a ullmhú agus a thíolacadh don mháthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais agus d'údaráis réitigh fochuideachtaí, agus tabharfaidh siadsan an tuarascáil sin do na fochuideachtaí atá laistigh dá sainchúram, agus d'údaráis réitigh dlínsí ina bhfuil brainsí suntasacha suite. Ullmhófar an tuarascáil ar dhul i gcomhairle leis na húdaráis inniúla, agus beidh anailísiú ann ar na baic shubstaintiúla ar chur i bhfeidhm éifeachtach na n-uirlisí réitigh agus ar fheidhmiú na gcumhachtaí réitigh i ndáil leis an ngrúpa agus le grúpaí réitigh má bhíonn níos mó ná grúpa réitigh amháin sa ghrúpa sin freisin. Breithneofar sa tuarascáil sin freisin an tionchar ar shamhail ghnó an ghrúpa agus molfar inti aon bhearta comhréireacha agus spriocdhírithe is gá nó is iomchuí, dar le húdarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa, chun na baic sin a bhaint.

Má bhíonn bac ar inréititheacht an ghrúpa de dheasca cás sonrach ghrúpeintitis dá dtagraítear sa dara fomhír d'Airteagal 17(3), tabharfaidh údarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa fógra don mháthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle le húdarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh agus le húdaráis réitigh a fho-institiúidí go ndearna sé measúnú ar an mbac sin.

3.  
Tráth nach déanaí ná ceithre mhí tar éis dó an tuarascáil a fháil, féadfaidh an máthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais barúlacha a chur isteach agus bearta malartacha a mholadh don Bhord chun na baic atá sainaitheanta sa tuarascáil a leigheas.

I gcás gurb é is cúis leis na baica sainaithnítear sa tuarascáilan cás sonrach ina bhfuil grúpeintiteas dá dtagraítear sa dara fomhír d'Airteagal 17(3) den Treoir seo, molfaidh an máthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais, tráth nach déanaí ná dhá sheachtain ó gheofar an fógra arna dhéanamh i gcomhréir leis an dara fhomhír de mhír 2 den Airteagal seo, d'údarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa bearta féideartha maille le hamlíne lena gcur chun feidhme d'fhonn a áirithiú go gcloíonn an grúpeintiteas leis na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e nó Airteagal 45f den Treoir seo, arna shloinneadh mar chéatadán de mhéid iomlán na neamhchosanta ar riosca arna ríomh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 92(3) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 agus, i gcás inarb infheidhme, i gcomhréir leis an gceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte, agus leis na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e agus 45f den Treoir seo arna sloinneadh mar chéatadán de mhéid iomlán na neamhchosanta dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 429 agus in Airteagal 429a de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013.

Cuirfear san áireamh san amlíne faoina gcuirfear chun feidhme na bearta arna moladh sa dara fomhír na cúiseanna atá leis an mbac substainteach. Déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh, tar íes dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, measúnú a dhéanamh an dtugtar aghaidh go héifeachtach, leis na bearta sin, ar an mbac substainteach nó an gcuirtear deireadh leis.

4.  
Cuirfidh údarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa in iúl aon bheart a mhol an máthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais don mhaoirseoir comhdhlúthaithe, do ÚBE, d'údaráis réitigh na bhfochuideachtaí agus d'údaráis réitigh na ndlínsí ina bhfuil brainsí suntasacha suite a mhéid is ábhartha don bhrainse suntasach atá i gceist. Déanfaidh údaráis réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa agus údaráis réitigh na bhfochuideachtaí, ar dhul i gcomhairle dóibh leis na húdaráis inniúla agus le húdaráis réitigh dlínsí ina bhfuil brainsí suntasacha suite, déanfaidh siad a bhfuil ar a gcumas chun cinneadh comhpháirteach a dhéanamh laistigh den choláiste réitigh i ndáil le baic shubstainteacha a shainaithint, agus, más gá, leis an measúnú ar bhearta arna moladh ag an máthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais agus leis na bearta arna gceangal ag na húdaráis chun aghaidh a thabhairt ar na baic nó deireadh a chur leo, agus sa mheasúnú sin cuirfear tionchar féideartha na mbeart sna Ballstáit uile ina n-oibríonn an grúpa san áireamh.
5.  
Déanfar an cinneadh comhpháirteach tráth nach déanaí ná ceithre mhí ó chuirfidh an máthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais barúlacha isteach. I gcás nár chuir an máthairghnóthas de chuid an Aontais barúlacha isteach, déanfar an cinneadh comhpháirteach tráth nach déanaí ná aon mhí amháin ó rachaidh in éag an tréimhse ceithre mhí dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír de mhír 3.

2.  
Following that notification and consultation the consolidating supervisor shall decide whether to apply any of the measures in Article 27 or appoint a temporary administrator under Article 29 in respect of the relevant Union parent undertaking, taking into account the impact of those measures on the group entities in other Member States. The consolidating supervisor shall notify the decision to the other competent authorities within the supervisory college and EBA.
3.  
Where the conditions for the imposition of requirements under Article 27 or the appointment of a temporary administrator under Article 29 are met in relation to a subsidiary of an Union parent undertaking, the competent authority responsible for the supervision on an individual basis that intends to take a measure in accordance with those Articles shall notify EBA and consult the consolidating supervisor.

On receiving the notification the consolidating supervisor may assess the likely impact of the imposition of requirements under Article 27 or the appointment of a temporary administrator in accordance with Article 29 to the institution in question, on the group or on group entities in other Member States. It shall communicate that assessment to the competent authority within three days.

Following that notification and consultation the competent authority shall decide whether to apply any of the measures in Article 27 or appoint a temporary administrator under Article 29. The decision shall give due consideration to any assessment of the consolidating supervisor. The competent authority shall notify the decision to the consolidating supervisor and other competent authorities within the supervisory college and EBA.

4.  
Where more than one competent authority intends to appoint a temporary administrator or apply any of the measures in Article 27 to more than one institution in the same group, the consolidating supervisor and the other relevant competent authorities shall consider whether it is more appropriate to appoint the same temporary administrator for all the entities concerned or to coordinate the application of any measures in Article 27 to more than one institution in order to facilitate solutions restoring the financial position of the institution concerned. The assessment shall take the form of a joint decision of the consolidating supervisor and the other relevant competent authorities. The joint decision shall be reached within five days from the date of the notification referred to in paragraph 1. The joint decision shall be reasoned and set out in a document, which shall be provided by the consolidating supervisor to the Union parent undertaking.

EBA may at the request of a competent authority assist the competent authorities in reaching an agreement in accordance with Article 31 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

In the absence of a joint decision within five days the consolidating supervisor and the competent authorities of subsidiaries may take individual decisions on the appointment of a temporary administrator to the institutions for which they have responsibility and on the application of any of the measures in Article 27.

5.  
Where a competent authority concerned does not agree with the decision notified in accordance with paragraph 1 or 3, or in the absence of a joint decision under paragraph 4, the competent authority may refer the matter to EBA in accordance with paragraph 6.
6.  
EBA may at the request of any competent authority assist the competent authorities that intend to apply one or more of the measures in point (a) of Article 27(1) of this Directive with respect to the points (4), (10), (11) and (19) of Section A of the Annex to this Directive, in point (e) of Article 27(1) of this Directive or in point (g) of Article 27(1) of this Directive in reaching an agreement in accordance with Article 19(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.
7.  
The decision of each competent authority shall be reasoned. The decision shall take into account the views and reservations of the other competent authorities expressed during the consultation period referred to in paragraph 1 or 3 or the five-day period referred to in paragraph 4 as well as the potential impact of the decision on financial stability in the Member States concerned. The decisions shall be provided by the consolidating supervisor to the Union parent undertaking and to the subsidiaries by the respective competent authorities.

In the cases referred to in paragraph 6 of this Article, where, before the end of the consultation period referred to in paragraphs 1 and 3 of this Article or at the end of the five-day period referred to in paragraph 4 of this Article, any of the competent authorities concerned has referred the matter to EBA in accordance with Article 19(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, the consolidating supervisor and the other competent authorities shall defer their decisions and await any decision that EBA may take in accordance with Article 19(3) of that Regulation, and shall take their decision in accordance with the decision of EBA. The five-day period shall be deemed to be the conciliation period within the meaning of that Regulation. EBA shall take its decision within three days. The matter shall not be referred to EBA after the end of the five-day period or after a joint decision has been reached.

8.  
In the absence of a decision by EBA within three days, individual decisions taken in accordance with paragraph 1 or 3, or the third subparagraph of paragraph 4, shall apply.

TITLE IV

RESOLUTION

CHAPTER I

Objectives, conditions and general principles

Article 31

Resolution objectives

1.  
When applying the resolution tools and exercising the resolution powers, resolution authorities shall have regard to the resolution objectives, and choose the tools and powers that best achieve the objectives that are relevant in the circumstances of the case.
2.  

The resolution objectives referred to in paragraph 1 are:

(a) 

to ensure the continuity of critical functions;

(b) 

to avoid a significant adverse effect on the financial system, in particular by preventing contagion, including to market infrastructures, and by maintaining market discipline;

(c) 

to protect public funds by minimising reliance on extraordinary public financial support;

(d) 

to protect depositors covered by Directive 2014/49/EU and investors covered by Directive 97/9/EC;

(e) 

to protect client funds and client assets.

When pursuing the above objectives, the resolution authority shall seek to minimise the cost of resolution and avoid destruction of value unless necessary to achieve the resolution objectives.

3.  
Subject to different provisions of this Directive, the resolution objectives are of equal significance, and resolution authorities shall balance them as appropriate to the nature and circumstances of each case.

Article 32

Conditions for resolution

1.  

Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities shall take a resolution action in relation to an institution referred to in point (a) of Article 1(1) only if the resolution authority considers that all of the following conditions are met:

(a) 

the determination that the institution is failing or is likely to fail has been made by the competent authority, after consulting the resolution authority or,; subject to the conditions laid down in paragraph 2, by the resolution authority after consulting the competent authority;

▼M3

(b) 

ag féachaint d'uainiú agus d'imthosca ábhartha eile, níl aon ionchas réasúnta ann go gcuirfeadh aon bhearta malartacha ón earnáil phríobháideach lena n-áirítear bearta ó IPS nó aon ghníomhaíocht mhaoirseachta, lena n-áirítear bearta luath-idirghabhála nó díluachála nó comhshó ionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus dliteanas incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59(2), a dhéanfaí i ndáil leis an institiúid, cosc ar chliseadh na hinstitiúide laistigh de thréimhse réasúnta;

▼B

(c) 

a resolution action is necessary in the public interest pursuant to paragraph 5.

2.  
Member States may provide that, in addition to the competent authority, the determination that the institution is failing or likely to fail under point (a) of paragraph 1 can be made by the resolution authority, after consulting the competent authority, where resolution authorities under national law have the necessary tools for making such a determination including, in particular, adequate access to the relevant information. The competent authority shall provide the resolution authority with any relevant information that the latter requests in order to perform its assessment without delay.
3.  
The previous adoption of an early intervention measure according to Article 27 is not a condition for taking a resolution action.
4.  

For the purposes of point (a) of paragraph 1, an institution shall be deemed to be failing or likely to fail in one or more of the following circumstances:

(a) 

the institution infringes or there are objective elements to support a determination that the institution will, in the near future, infringe the requirements for continuing authorisation in a way that would justify the withdrawal of the authorisation by the competent authority including but not limited to because the institution has incurred or is likely to incur losses that will deplete all or a significant amount of its own funds;

(b) 

the assets of the institution are or there are objective elements to support a determination that the assets of the institution will, in the near future, be less than its liabilities;

(c) 

the institution is or there are objective elements to support a determination that the institution will, in the near future, be unable to pay its debts or other liabilities as they fall due;

(d) 

extraordinary public financial support is required except when, in order to remedy a serious disturbance in the economy of a Member State and preserve financial stability, the extraordinary public financial support takes any of the following forms:

(i) 

a State guarantee to back liquidity facilities provided by central banks according to the central banks’ conditions;

(ii) 

a State guarantee of newly issued liabilities; or

(iii) 

an injection of own funds or purchase of capital instruments at prices and on terms that do not confer an advantage upon the institution, where neither the circumstances referred to in point (a), (b) or (c) of this paragraph nor the circumstances referred to in Article 59(3) are present at the time the public support is granted.

In each of the cases mentioned in points (d)(i), (ii) and (iii) of the first subparagraph, the guarantee or equivalent measures referred to therein shall be confined to solvent institutions and shall be conditional on final approval under the Union State aid framework. Those measures shall be of a precautionary and temporary nature and shall be proportionate to remedy the consequences of the serious disturbance and shall not be used to offset losses that the institution has incurred or is likely to incur in the near future.

Support measures under point (d)(iii) of the first subparagraph shall be limited to injections necessary to address capital shortfall established in the national, Union or SSM-wide stress tests, asset quality reviews or equivalent exercises conducted by the European Central Bank, EBA or national authorities, where applicable, confirmed by the competent authority.

EBA shall, by 3 January 2015, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 on the type of tests, reviews or exercises referred to above which may lead to such support.

By 31 December 2015, the Commission shall review whether there is a continuing need for allowing the support measures under point (d)(iii) of the first subparagraph and the conditions that need to be met in the case of continuation and report thereon to the European Parliament and to the Council. If appropriate, that report shall be accompanied by a legislative proposal.

5.  
For the purposes of point (c) of paragraph 1 of this Article, a resolution action shall be treated as in the public interest if it is necessary for the achievement of and is proportionate to one or more of the resolution objectives referred to in Article 31 and winding up of the institution under normal insolvency proceedings would not meet those resolution objectives to the same extent.
6.  
EBA shall, by 3 July 2015, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 to promote the convergence of supervisory and resolution practices regarding the interpretation of the different circumstances when an institution shall be considered to be failing or likely to fail.

Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit go ndéanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh gníomhaíocht réitigh i ndáil le heintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (c) nó pointe (d) d'Airteagal 1(1), má chomhlíonann an t-eintiteas sin na coinníollacha a leagtar síos in Airteagal 32(1).
3.  
Má bhíonn fo-institiúidí cuideachta sealbhaíochta gníomhaíochtaí measctha i seilbh, go díreach nó go hindíreach, ag cuideachta sealbhaíochta airgeadais idirmheánach, forálfar sa phlean réitigh go sainaithneofar an chuideachta sealbhaíochta airgeadais mar eintiteas réitigh agus áiritheoidh na Ballstáit go ndéanfar gníomhaíochtaí réitigh chun críocha réitigh grúpa i ndáil leis an gcuideachta sealbhaíochta airgeadais idirmheánach.

4.  

Faoi réir mhír 3 den Airteagal seo, fiú i gcás nach gcomhlíonann eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (c) nó pointe (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) na coinníollacha a leagtar síos in Airteagal 32(1), féadfaidh na húdaráis réitigh gníomhaíocht réitigh a dhéanamh i ndáil le heintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (c) nó pointe (d) d'Airteagal 1(1), má chomhlíontar na coinníollacha seo a leanas go léir:

comhlíonann ceann amháin nó níos mó d'fhochuideachtaí an eintitis sin ar institiúidí iad, ach nach eintitis réitigh iad, na coinníollacha a leagtar síos in Airteagal 32(1);

(c) 

tá an oiread sin sócmhainní agus dliteanas ag na fochuideachtaí dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b) go gcuirfeadh cliseadh na bhfochuideachtaí sin an grúpa réitigh i mbaol ar an iomlán agus is gá gníomhaíocht réitigh a dhéanamh i ndáil leis an eintiteas chun go réiteofar na fochuideachtaí sin ar institiúidí iad nó chun go réiteofar an grúpa réitigh ábhartha ar an iomlán.

▼M3

Airteagal 33a

An chumhacht oibleagáidí áirithe a chur ar fionraí

1.  

Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit go mbeidh de chumhacht ag na húdaráis réitigh, ar dhul i gcomhairle do na húdaráis sin leis na húdaráis inniúla, a fhreagróidh ar bhonn tráthúil, aon oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta a fhionraí, de bhun aon chonartha inar páirtí an institiúid nó an-t-eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1), i gcás ina sásaítear na coinníollacha uile seo a leanas:

(a) 

táthar tar éis cinneadh a dhéanamh, faoi phointe (a) d'Airteagal 32(1), go bhfuil ag cliseadh ar an institiúid nó eintiteas nó ar dóigh dóibh cliseadh;

(b) 

níl fáil láithreach ar aon bheart de chuid na hearnála príobháidí dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b) d'Airteagal 32(1) a choiscfeadh loiceadh na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis;

(c) 

meastar gur gá an chumhacht fionraíochta a fheidhmiú d'fhonn nach rachaidh dálaí airgeadais na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis chun donachta a thuilleadh; agus

(d) 

tá feidhmiú na cumhachta fionraí:

(i) 

riachtanach chun gur féidir teacht ar an gcinneadh dá bhforáiltear i bpointe (c) d'Airteagal 32(1); nó

(ii) 

riachtanach chun gur féidir gníomhaíochtaí réitigh iomchuí a roghnú nó chun gur féidir ceann amháin nó níos mó de na hionstraimí réitigh a chur chun feidhme go héifeachtúil.

2.  

Ní bheidh feidhm ag an gcumhacht dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo i leith oibleagáídí íocaíochta nó seachadtaite maidir leo seo a leanas:

(a) 

córais gona n-oibreoirí arna n-ainmniú i gcomhréir le Treoir 98/26/CE;

(b) 

contrapháirtithe lárnacha arna n-údarú san Aontas de bhun Airteagal 14 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 648/2012 agus contrapháirtithe lárnacha de chuid tríú tír arna n-aithint ag ESMA de bhun Airteagal 25 den Rialachán sin;

(c) 

bainc ceannais.

Déanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh raon na cumhachta dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo a shocrú de réir cúinsí gach aon chás. Go sonrach, déanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh measúnú cúramach ar a iomchuí atá sé an fionraí a shíneadh chun go gcuimseofar faoi taiscí is incháilithe de réir an tsainmhínithe atá i bpointe (4) d'Airteagal 2(1) de Threoir 2014/49/AE, go mór mór chun go gcuimseofar faoi taiscí faoi chumhdach de chuid daoine nádúrtha, micrifhiontar, agus fiontar beag agus meánmhéide.

3.  
Féadfaidh na Ballstáit a fhoráil go ndéanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh a áirithiú, i gcás ina bhfeidhmítear an chumhacht fionraíochta i leith taiscí is incháilithe, go mbeidh rochtain ag taisceoirí ar shuim iomchuí as na taiscí sin gach lá.
4.  
Beidh an tréimhse fionraíochta a ghearrfar de bhun mhír 1 chomh gearr agus is féidir agus ní sháróidh sí an íostréimhse is gá, dar leis an údarás réitigh, chun na gcríoch a shonraítear i bpointe (c) agus (d) de mhír 1, ná ní mhairfidh sí, i ngach cás, níos faide ná an tréimhse ó fhoilsiú an fhógra fionraíochta de bhun mhír 8 go huair an mheán oíche sa Bhallstát ina bhfuil údarás réitigh na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis ar an gcéad lá gnó eile ó foilsíodh an fógra.

Ach a dté in éag an tréimhse fionraíochta dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír, scoirfidh an fhionraíocht d'éifeacht a bheith aici.

5.  
Agus cumhachtaí á bhfeidhmiú acu dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo, beidh aird ag na húdaráis réitigh ar an iarmhairt a d'fhágfadh feidhmiú na cumhachta sin ar fheidhmiú ordúil na margaí airgeadais agus tabharfaidh siad dá n-aire na rialacha reatha náisiúnta, agus na cumhachtaí maoirseachta agus breithiúnacha, chun go gcosnófar cearta na gcreidiúnaithe agus go dtabharfar an chóir chéanna dóibh sna gnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta. Beidh aird ag na húdaráis réitigh, go háirithe, ar an bhféidearthacht imeachtaí náisiúnta dócmhainneachta a chur i bhfeidhm ar an institiúid nó ar an eintiteas i ngeall ar an gcinneadh atá i bpointe (c) d'Airteagal 32(1) agus déanfaidh siad pé socruithe a mheasann siad is iomchuí leis chun comhordú leordhóthanach a áirithiú leis na húdaráis náisiúnta riaracháin nó bhreithiúnacha.
6.  
Nuair a chuirfear ar fionraí oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta faoi chonradh de bhun mhír 1, cuirfear oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta chontrapháirtithe an chonartha sin ar fionraí le linn na tréimhse céanna.
7.  
Oibleagáid íocaíochta nó seachadta a bheadh dlite le linn na tréimhse fionraíochta, beidh sí dlite láithreach ach a dté an tréimhse sin in éag.
8.  
Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit go gcuirfidh na húdaráis réitigh scéala chuig an institiúid nó chuig an eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) agus chuig na húdaráis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (a) go (h) d'Airteagal 83(2) gan mhoill tráth a mbeidh a gcumhacht fionraíochta dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo á feidhmiú acu i dtaca le hoibleagáidí áirithe ón uair a chinnfear go bhfuil an institiúid ag cliseadh nó ar dóigh di cliseadh de bhun phointe (a) d'Airteagal 32(1)(a) agus sula nglacfar an cinneadh réitigh.

Foilseoidh an t-údarás réitigh féin, nó áiritheoidh sé go gcuirfear á foilsiú, an t-ordú nó an ionstraim lenar cuireadh ar fionraí na hoibleagáidí faoin Airteagal seo, mar aon le téarmaí agus tréimhse na fionraíochta, ar an dóigh dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 83(4).

9.  
Tá an tAirteagal seo gan dochar do na forálacha atá i ndlí náisiúnta na mBallstát lena dtugtar de chumhacht oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta a chur ar fionraí sula ndéantar cinneadh gur institiúidí nó eintitis atá ag cliseadh na hinstitiúidí nó na heintitis sin nó gur dóigh dóibh cliseadh faoi phointe (a) d'Airteagal 32(1) nó sula ndéantar cinneadh oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta institiúidí nó eintitis atá le foirceannadh de réir gnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta a fhionraí,agus a théann thar an raon feidhme agus an ré dá bhforáiltear sa nAirteagal seo. Déanfar na cumhachtaí sin a fheidhmiú i gcomhréir leis an raon fheidhme, an ré agus na coinníollacha dá bhforáiltear sna dlithe náisiúnta ábhartha. Na coinníollacha dá bhforáiltear san airteagal seo, ní dochar iad do na coinníollacha a bhaineann leis na cumhachtaí íocaíochta nó oibleagáidí seachadta a chur ar fionraí,
10.  

Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit gurb amhlaidh, nuair a fheidhmíonn údarás réitigh cumhacht fionraíochta i leith oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta i dtaca le hinstitiúid nó le heintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) de bhun mhír 1 den Airteagal seo, go bhfuil an t-údarás réitigh in ann, le linn ré na fionraíochta sin, an chumhacht a fheidhmiú freisin, le linn ré na fionraíochta sin:

(a) 

chun creidiúnaithe urraithe na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis a theorannú i dtaca le leasanna urrúis a fhorfheidhmiú i dtaca le haon cheann de shócmhainní na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis sin, ar feadh na tréimhse céanna, agus sa chás sin beidh feidhm ag Airteagal 70(2)(3) agus (4)s; agus

(b) 

chun cearta chun foirceanta aon pháirtí a bhfuil conradh aige leis an institiúid nó an eintiteas sin a chur a fhionraí, ar feadh na tréimhse céanna, agus sa chás sin beidh feidhm ag Airteagal 71(2 go (8).

11.  
Agus cinneadh déanta ag an údarás réitigh go bhfuil institiúid nó eintiteas ag cliseadh nó ar dóigh dóibh cliseadh de bhun phointe (a) d'Airteagal 32(1), má tharlaíonn sé go bhfuil an t-údarás réitigh tar éis an chumhacht a fheidhmiú i leith oibleagáidí íocaíochta nó seachadta fhionraí sna cúinsí a leagtar amach i mír 1 nó 10 den Airteagal seo, agus má ghlactar gníomhaíocht réitigh dá éis sin i leith na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis sin, ní fheidhmeoidh an t-údarás réitigh a chuid cumhachtaí faoi Airteagal 69(1), Airteagal 70(1) nó Airteagal 71(1) i leith na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis sin.

Those measures may include an increase of capital, reorganisation of the ownership structure of the institution or takeovers by institutions that are financially and organisationally sound in accordance with the resolution tools referred to in Chapter IV.
4.  
Resolution authorities may set limits to the action of a special manager or require that certain acts of the special manager be subject to the resolution authority’s prior consent. The resolution authorities may remove the special manager at any time.
5.  
Member States shall require that a special manager draw up reports for the appointing resolution authority on the economic and financial situation of the institution and on the acts performed in the conduct of his or her duties, at regular intervals set by the resolution authority and at the beginning and the end of his or her mandate.
6.  
A special manager shall not be appointed for more than one year. That period may be renewed, on an exceptional basis, if the resolution authority determines that the conditions for appointment of a special manager continue to be met.
7.  
Where more than one resolution authority intends to appoint a special manager in relation to an entity affiliated to a group, they shall consider whether it is more appropriate to appoint the same special manager for all the entities concerned in order to facilitate solutions redressing the financial soundness of the entities concerned.
8.  
In the event of insolvency, where national law provides for the appointment of insolvency management, such management may constitute special management as referred to in this Article.

CHAPTER III

Valuation

Article 36

Valuation for the purposes of resolution

1.  
Before taking resolution action or exercising the power to write down or convert relevant ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ resolution authorities shall ensure that a fair, prudent and realistic valuation of the assets and liabilities of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) is carried out by a person independent from any public authority, including the resolution authority, and the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1). Subject to paragraph 13 of this Article and to Article 85, where all the requirements laid down in this Article are met, the valuation shall be considered to be definitive.
2.  
Where an independent valuation according to paragraph 1 is not possible, resolution authorities may carry out a provisional valuation of the assets and liabilities of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), in accordance with paragraph 9 of this Article.
3.  
The objective of the valuation shall be to assess the value of the assets and liabilities of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) that meets the conditions for resolution of Articles 32 and 33.
4.  

The purposes of the valuation shall be:

(a) 

to inform the determination of whether the conditions for resolution or the conditions for the write down or conversion of ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ are met;

(b) 

if the conditions for resolution are met, to inform the decision on the appropriate resolution action to be taken in respect of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1);

(c) 

when the power to write down or convert relevant ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ is applied, to inform the decision on the extent of the cancellation or dilution of shares or other instruments of ownership, and the extent of the write down or conversion of relevant ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ ;

(d) 

when the bail-in tool is applied, to inform the decision on the extent of the write down or conversion of ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ ;

(e) 

when the bridge institution tool or asset separation tool is applied, to inform the decision on the assets, rights, liabilities or shares or other instruments of ownership to be transferred and the decision on the value of any consideration to be paid to the institution under resolution or, as the case may be, to the owners of the shares or other instruments of ownership;

(f) 

when the sale of business tool is applied, to inform the decision on the assets, rights, liabilities or shares or other instruments of ownership to be transferred and to inform the resolution authority’s understanding of what constitutes commercial terms for the purposes of Article 38;

(g) 

in all cases, to ensure that any losses on the assets of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) are fully recognised at the moment the resolution tools are applied or the power to write down or convert relevant ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ is exercised.

5.  

Without prejudice to the Union State aid framework, where applicable, the valuation shall be based on prudent assumptions, including as to rates of default and severity of losses. The valuation shall not assume any potential future provision of extraordinary public financial support or central bank emergency liquidity assistance or any central bank liquidity assistance provided under non-standard collateralisation, tenor and interest rate terms to the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) from the point at which resolution action is taken or the power to write down or convert relevant ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ is exercised. Furthermore, the valuation shall take account of the fact that, if any resolution tool is applied:

(a) 

the resolution authority and any financing arrangement acting pursuant to Article 101 may recover any reasonable expenses properly incurred from the institution under resolution, in accordance with Article 37(7);

(b) 

the resolution financing arrangement may charge interest or fees in respect of any loans or guarantees provided to the institution under resolution, in accordance with Article 101.

6.  

The valuation shall be supplemented by the following information as appearing in the accounting books and records of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1):

(a) 

an updated balance sheet and a report on the financial position of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1);

(b) 

an analysis and an estimate of the accounting value of the assets;

(c) 

the list of outstanding on balance sheet and off balance sheet liabilities shown in the books and records of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), with an indication of the respective credits and priority levels under the applicable insolvency law.

7.  
Where appropriate, to inform the decisions referred to in points (e) and (f) of paragraph 4, the information in point (b) of paragraph 6 may be complemented by an analysis and estimate of the value of the assets and liabilities of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) on a market value basis.
8.  
The valuation shall indicate the subdivision of the creditors in classes in accordance with their priority levels under the applicable insolvency law and an estimate of the treatment that each class of shareholders and creditors would have been expected to receive, if the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) were wound up under normal insolvency proceedings.

That estimate shall not affect the application of the ‘no creditor worse off’ principle to be carried out under Article 74.

9.  
Where due to the urgency in the circumstances of the case it is not possible to comply with the requirements in paragraphs 6 and 8 or paragraph 2 applies, a provisional valuation shall be carried out. The provisional valuation shall comply with the requirements in paragraph 3 and in so far as reasonably practicable in the circumstances with the requirements of paragraphs 1, 6 and 8.

The provisional valuation referred to in this paragraph shall include a buffer for additional losses, with appropriate justification.

10.  
A valuation that does not comply with all the requirements laid down in this Article shall be considered to be provisional until an independent person has carried out a valuation that is fully compliant with all the requirements laid down in this Article. That ex-post definitive valuation shall be carried out as soon as practicable. It may be carried out either separately from the valuation referred to in Article 74, or simultaneously with and by the same independent person as that valuation, but shall be distinct from it.

The purposes of the ex-post definitive valuation shall be:

(a) 

to ensure that any losses on the assets of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) are fully recognised in the books of accounts of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1);

(b) 

to inform a decision to write back creditors’ claims or to increase the value of the consideration paid, in accordance with paragraph 11.

11.  

In the event that the ex-post definitive valuation’s estimate of the net asset value of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) is higher than the provisional valuation’s estimate of the net asset value of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), the resolution authority may:

(a) 

exercise its power to increase the value of the claims of creditors or owners of relevant capital instruments which have been written down under the bail-in tool;

(b) 

instruct a bridge institution or asset management vehicle to make a further payment of consideration in respect of the assets, rights, liabilities to the institution under resolution, or as the case may be, in respect of the shares or instruments of ownership to the owners of the shares or other instruments of ownership.

12.  
Notwithstanding paragraph 1, a provisional valuation conducted in accordance with paragraphs 9 and 10 shall be a valid basis for resolution authorities take resolution actions, including taking control of a failing institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), or to exercise the write down or conversion power of ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ .
13.  
The valuation shall be an integral part of the decision to apply a resolution tool or exercise a resolution power, or the decision to exercise the write down or conversion power of ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ . The valuation itself shall not be subject to a separate right of appeal but may be subject to an appeal together with the decision in accordance with Article 85.
14.  
EBA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify the circumstances in which a person is independent from both the resolution authority and the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) for the purposes of paragraph 1of this Article, and for the purposes of Article 74.
15.  

EBA may develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify the following criteria for the purposes of paragraphs 1, 3 and 9 of this Article, and for the purposes of Article 74:

(a) 

the methodology for assessing the value of the assets and liabilities of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1);

(b) 

the separation of the valuations under Articles 36 and 74;

(c) 

the methodology for calculating and including a buffer for additional losses in the provisional valuation.

16.  
EBA shall submit the draft regulatory technical standards referred to in paragraph 14 to the Commission by 3 July 2015.

Power is delegated to the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in paragraphs 14 and 15 in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

CHAPTER IV

Resolution tools

Section 1

General principles

Article 37

General principles of resolution tools

1.  
Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities have the necessary powers to apply the resolution tools to institutions and to entities referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) that meet the applicable conditions for resolution.
2.  
Where a resolution authority decides to apply a resolution tool to an institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), and that resolution action would result in losses being borne by creditors or their claims being converted, the resolution authority shall exercise the power to write down and convert ►M3  ionstraimí capitil agus dliteanais incháilithe i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 ◄ in accordance with Article 59 immediately before or together with the application of the resolution tool.
3.  

The resolution tools referred to in paragraph 1 are the following:

(a) 

the sale of business tool;

(b) 

the bridge institution tool;

(c) 

the asset separation tool;

(d) 

the bail-in tool.

4.  
Subject to paragraph 5, resolution authorities may apply the resolution tools individually or in any combination.
5.  
Resolution authorities may apply the asset separation tool only together with another resolution tool.
6.  
Where only the resolution tools referred to in point (a) or (b) of paragraph 3 of this Article are used, and they are used to transfer only part of the assets, rights or liabilities of the institution under resolution, the residual institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) from which the assets, rights or liabilities have been transferred, shall be wound up under normal insolvency proceedings. Such winding up shall be done within a reasonable timeframe, having regard to any need for that institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) to provide services or support pursuant to Article 65 in order to enable the recipient to carry out the activities or services acquired by virtue of that transfer, and any other reason that the continuation of the residual institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) is necessary to achieve the resolution objectives or comply with the principles referred to in Article 34.
7.  

The resolution authority and any financing arrangement acting pursuant to Article 101 may recover any reasonable expenses properly incurred in connection with the use of the resolution tools or powers or government financial stabilisation tools in one or more of the following ways:

(a) 

as a deduction from any consideration paid by a recipient to the institution under resolution or, as the case may be, to the owners of the shares or other instruments of ownership;

(b) 

from the institution under resolution, as a preferred creditor; or

(c) 

from any proceeds generated as a result of the termination of the operation of the bridge institution or the asset management vehicle, as a preferred creditor.

8.  
Member States shall ensure that rules under national insolvency law relating to the voidability or unenforceability of legal acts detrimental to creditors do not apply to transfers of assets, rights or liabilities from an institution under resolution to another entity by virtue of the application of a resolution tool or exercise of a resolution power, or use of a government financial stabilisation tool.
9.  

Member States may confer upon resolution authorities additional tools and powers exercisable where an institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) meets the conditions for resolution, provided that:

(a) 

when applied to a cross-border group, those additional powers do not pose obstacles to effective group resolution; and

(b) 

they are consistent with the resolution objectives and the general principles governing resolution referred to in Articles 31 and 34.

10.  

In the very extraordinary situation of a systemic crisis, the resolution authority may seek funding from alternative financing sources through the use of government stabilisation tools provided for in Articles 56 to 58 when the following conditions are met:

(a) 

a contribution to loss absorption and recapitalisation equal to an amount not less than 8 % of total liabilities including own funds of the institution under resolution, measured at the time of resolution action in accordance with the valuation provided for in Article 36, has been made by the shareholders and the holders of other instruments of ownership, the holders of relevant capital instruments and other ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ through write down, conversion or otherwise;

(b) 

it shall be conditional on prior and final approval under the Union State aid framework.

Section 2

The sale of business tool

Article 38

The sale of business tool

1.  

Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities have the power to transfer to a purchaser that is not a bridge institution:

(a) 

shares or other instruments of ownership issued by an institution under resolution;

(b) 

all or any assets, rights or liabilities of an institution under resolution;

Subject to paragraphs 8 and 9 of this Article and to Article 85, the transfer referred to in the first subparagraph shall take place without obtaining the consent of the shareholders of the institution under resolution or any third party other than the purchaser, and without complying with any procedural requirements under company or securities law other than those included in Article 39.

2.  
A transfer made pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be made on commercial terms, having regard to the circumstances, and in accordance with the Union State aid framework.
3.  
In accordance with paragraph 2 of this Article, resolution authorities shall take all reasonable steps to obtain commercial terms for the transfer that conform with the valuation conducted under Article 36, having regard to the circumstances of the case.
4.  

Subject to Article 37(7), any consideration paid by the purchaser shall benefit:

(a) 

the owners of the shares or other instruments of ownership, where the sale of business has been effected by transferring shares or instruments of ownership issued by the institution under resolution from the holders of those shares or instruments to the purchaser;

(b) 

the institution under resolution, where the sale of business has been effected by transferring some or all of the assets or liabilities of the institution under resolution to the purchaser.

5.  
When applying the sale of business tool the resolution authority may exercise the transfer power more than once in order to make supplemental transfers of shares or other instruments of ownership issued by an institution under resolution or, as the case may be, assets, rights or liabilities of the institution under resolution.
6.  
Following an application of the sale of business tool, resolution authorities may, with the consent of the purchaser, exercise the transfer powers in respect of assets, rights or liabilities transferred to the purchaser in order to transfer the assets, rights or liabilities back to the institution under resolution, or the shares or other instruments of ownership back to their original owners, and the institution under resolution or original owners shall be obliged to take back any such assets, rights or liabilities, or shares or other instruments of ownership.
7.  
A purchaser shall have the appropriate authorisation to carry out the business it acquires when the transfer is made pursuant to paragraph 1. Competent authorities shall ensure that an application for authorisation shall be considered, in conjunction with the transfer, in a timely manner.
8.  
By way of derogation from Articles 22 to 25 of Directive 2013/36/EU, from the requirement to inform the competent authorities in Article 26 of Directive 2013/36/EU, from Article 10(3), Article 11(1) and (2) and Articles 12 and 13 of Directive 2014/65/EU and from the requirement to give a notice in Article 11(3) of that Directive, where a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership by virtue of an application of the sale of business tool would result in the acquisition of or increase in a qualifying holding in an institution of a kind referred to in Article 22(1) of Directive 2013/36/EU or Article 11(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU, the competent authority of that institution shall carry out the assessment required under those Articles in a timely manner that does not delay the application of the sale of business tool and prevent the resolution action from achieving the relevant resolution objectives.
9.  

Member States shall ensure that if the competent authority of that institution has not completed the assessment referred to in paragraph 8 from the date of transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership in the application of the sale of business tool by the resolution authority, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) 

such a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership to the acquirer shall have immediate legal effect;

(b) 

during the assessment period and during any divestment period provided by point (f), the acquirer’s voting rights attached to such shares or other instruments of ownership shall be suspended and vested solely in the resolution authority, which shall have no obligation to exercise any such voting rights and which shall have no liability whatsoever for exercising or refraining from exercising any such voting rights;

(c) 

during the assessment period and during any divestment period provided by point (f), the penalties and other measures for infringing the requirements for acquisitions or disposals of qualifying holdings contemplated by Articles 66, 67 and 68 of Directive 2013/36/EU shall not apply to such a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership;

(d) 

promptly upon completion of the assessment by the competent authority, the competent authority shall notify the resolution authority and the acquirer in writing of whether the competent authority approves or, in accordance with Article 22(5) of Directive 2013/36/EU, opposes such a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership to the acquirer;

(e) 

if the competent authority approves such a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership to the acquirer, then the voting rights attached to such shares or other instruments of ownership shall be deemed to be fully vested in the acquirer immediately upon receipt by the resolution authority and the acquirer of such an approval notice from the competent authority;

(f) 

if the competent authority opposes such a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership to the acquirer, then:

(i) 

the voting rights attached to such shares or other instruments of ownership as provided by point (b) shall remain in full force and effect;

(ii) 

the resolution authority may require the acquirer to divest such shares or other instruments of ownership within a divestment period determined by the resolution authority having taken into account prevailing market conditions; and

(iii) 

if the acquirer does not complete such a divestment within the divestment period established by the resolution authority, then the competent authority, with the consent of the resolution authority, may impose on the acquirer penalties and other measures for infringing the requirements for acquisitions or disposals of qualifying holdings contemplated by Articles 66, 67, and 68 of Directive 2013/36/EU.

10.  
Transfers made by virtue of the sale of business tool shall be subject to the safeguards referred to in Chapter VII of Title IV.
11.  
For the purposes of exercising the rights to provide services or to establish itself in another Member State in accordance with Directive 2013/36/EU or Directive 2014/65/EU, the purchaser shall be considered to be a continuation of the institution under resolution, and may continue to exercise any such right that was exercised by the institution under resolution in respect of the assets, rights or liabilities transferred.
12.  
Member States shall ensure that the purchaser referred to in paragraph 1 may continue to exercise the rights of membership and access to payment, clearing and settlement systems, stock exchanges, investor compensation schemes and deposit guarantee schemes of the institution under resolution, provided that it meets the membership and participation criteria for participation in such systems.

Notwithstanding the first subparagraph, Member States shall ensure that:

(a) 

access is not denied on the ground that the purchaser does not possess a rating from a credit rating agency, or that rating is not commensurate to the rating levels required to be granted access to the systems referred to in the first subparagraph;

(b) 

where the purchaser does not meet the membership or participation criteria for a relevant payment, clearing or settlement system, stock exchange, investor compensation scheme or deposit guarantee scheme, the rights referred to in the first subparagraph are exercised for such a period of time as may be specified by the resolution authority, not exceeding 24 months, renewable on application by the purchaser to the resolution authority.

13.  
Without prejudice to Chapter VII of Title IV, shareholders or creditors of the institution under resolution and other third parties whose assets, rights or liabilities are not transferred shall not have any rights over or in relation to the assets, rights or liabilities transferred.

Article 39

Sale of business tool: procedural requirements

1.  
Subject to paragraph 3 of this Article, when applying the sale of business tool to an institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), a resolution authority shall market, or make arrangements for the marketing of the assets, rights, liabilities, shares or other instruments of ownership of that institution that the authority intends to transfer. Pools of rights, assets, and liabilities may be marketed separately.
2.  

Without prejudice to the Union State aid framework, where applicable, the marketing referred to in paragraph 1 shall be carried out in accordance with the following criteria:

(a) 

it shall be as transparent as possible and shall not materially misrepresent the assets, rights, liabilities, shares or other instruments of ownership of that institution that the authority intends to transfer, having regard to the circumstances and in particular the need to maintain financial stability;

(b) 

it shall not unduly favour or discriminate between potential purchasers;

(c) 

it shall be free from any conflict of interest;

(d) 

it shall not confer any unfair advantage on a potential purchaser;

(e) 

it shall take account of the need to effect a rapid resolution action;

(f) 

it shall aim at maximising, as far as possible, the sale price for the shares or other instruments of ownership, assets, rights or liabilities involved.

Subject to point (b) of the first subparagraph, the principles referred to in this paragraph shall not prevent the resolution authority from soliciting particular potential purchasers.

Any public disclosure of the marketing of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of this Directive that would otherwise be required in accordance with Article 17(1) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 may be delayed in accordance with Article 17(4) or (5) of that Regulation.

3.  

The resolution authority may apply the sale of business tool without complying with the requirement to market as laid down in paragraph 1 when it determines that compliance with those requirements would be likely to undermine one or more of the resolution objectives and in particular if the following conditions are met:

(a) 

it considers that there is a material threat to financial stability arising from or aggravated by the failure or likely failure of the institution under resolution; and

(b) 

it considers that compliance with those requirements would be likely to undermine the effectiveness of the sale of business tool in addressing that threat or achieving the resolution objective referred to in point (b) of Article 31(2).

4.  
EBA shall, by 3 July 2015, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 specifying the factual circumstances amounting to a material threat and the elements relating to the effectiveness of the sale of business tool provided for in points (a) and (b) of paragraph 3.

Section 3

The bridge institution tool

Article 40

Bridge institution tool

1.  

In order to give effect to the bridge institution tool and having regard to the need to maintain critical functions in the bridge institution, Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities have the power to transfer to a bridge institution:

(a) 

shares or other instruments of ownership issued by one or more institutions under resolution;

(b) 

all or any assets, rights or liabilities of one or more institutions under resolution.

Subject to Article 85, the transfer referred to in the first subparagraph may take place without obtaining the consent of the shareholders of the institutions under resolution or any third party other than the bridge institution, and without complying with any procedural requirements under company or securities law.

2.  

The bridge institution shall be a legal person that meets all of the following requirements:

(a) 

it is wholly or partially owned by one or more public authorities which may include the resolution authority or the resolution financing arrangement and is controlled by the resolution authority;

(b) 

it is created for the purpose of receiving and holding some or all of the shares or other instruments of ownership issued by an institution under resolution or some or all of the assets, rights and liabilities of one or more institutions under resolution with a view to maintaining access to critical functions and selling the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1).

The application of the bail-in tool for the purpose referred to in point (b) of Article 43(2) shall not interfere with the ability of the resolution authority to control the bridge institution.

3.  
When applying the bridge institution tool, the resolution authority shall ensure that the total value of liabilities transferred to the bridge institution does not exceed the total value of the rights and assets transferred from the institution under resolution or provided by other sources.
4.  

Subject to Article 37(7), any consideration paid by the bridge institution shall benefit:

(a) 

the owners of the shares or instruments of ownership, where the transfer to the bridge institution has been effected by transferring shares or instruments of ownership issued by the institution under resolution from the holders of those shares or instruments to the bridge institution;

(b) 

the institution under resolution, where the transfer to the bridge institution has been effected by transferring some or all of the assets or liabilities of the institution under resolution to the bridge institution.

5.  
When applying the bridge institution tool, the resolution authority may exercise the transfer power more than once in order to make supplemental transfers of shares or other instruments of ownership issued by an institution under resolution or, as the case may be, assets, rights or liabilities of the institution under resolution.
6.  

Following an application of the bridge institution tool, the resolution authority may:

(a) 

transfer rights, assets or liabilities back from the bridge institution to the institution under resolution, or the shares or other instruments of ownership back to their original owners, and the institution under resolution or original owners shall be obliged to take back any such assets, rights or liabilities, or shares or other instruments of ownership, provided that the conditions laid down in paragraph 7 are met;

(b) 

transfer, shares or other instruments of ownership, or assets, rights or liabilities from the bridge institution to a third party.

7.  

Resolution authorities may transfer shares or other instruments of ownership, or assets, rights or liabilities back from the bridge institution in one of the following circumstances:

(a) 

the possibility that the specific shares or other instruments of ownership, assets, rights or liabilities might be transferred back is stated expressly in the instrument by which the transfer was made;

(b) 

the specific shares or other instruments of ownership, assets, rights or liabilities do not in fact fall within the classes of, or meet the conditions for transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership, assets, rights or liabilities specified in the instrument by which the transfer was made.

Such a transfer back may be made within any period, and shall comply with any other conditions, stated in that instrument for the relevant purpose.

8.  
Transfers between the institution under resolution, or the original owners of shares or other instruments of ownership, on the one hand, and the bridge institution on the other, shall be subject to the safeguards referred to in Chapter VII of Title IV.
9.  
For the purposes of exercising the rights to provide services or to establish itself in another Member State in accordance with Directive 2013/36/EU or Directive 2014/65/EU, a bridge institution shall be considered to be a continuation of the institution under resolution, and may continue to exercise any such right that was exercised by the institution under resolution in respect of the assets, rights or liabilities transferred.

For other purposes, resolution authorities may require that a bridge institution be considered to be a continuation of the institution under resolution, and be able to continue to exercise any right that was exercised by the institution under resolution in respect of the assets, rights or liabilities transferred.

10.  
Member States shall ensure that the bridge institution may continue to exercise the rights of membership and access to payment, clearing and settlement systems, stock exchanges, investor compensation schemes and deposit guarantee schemes of the institution under resolution, provided that it meets the membership and participation criteria for participation in such systems.

Notwithstanding the first subparagraph, Member States shall ensure that:

(a) 

access is not denied on the ground that the bridge institution does not possess a rating from a credit rating agency, or that rating is not commensurate to the rating levels required to be granted access to the systems referred to in the first subparagraph;

(b) 

where the bridge institution does not meet the membership or participation criteria for a relevant payment, clearing or settlement system, stock exchange, investor compensation scheme or deposit guarantee scheme, the rights referred to in the first subparagraph are exercised for such a period of time as may be specified by the resolution authority, not exceeding 24 months, renewable on application by the bridge institution to the resolution authority.

11.  
Without prejudice to Chapter VII of Title IV, shareholders or creditors of the institution under resolution and other third parties whose assets, rights or liabilities are not transferred to the bridge institution shall not have any rights over or in relation to the assets, rights or liabilities transferred to the bridge institution, its management body or senior management.
12.  
The objectives of the bridge institution shall not imply any duty or responsibility to shareholders or creditors of the institution under resolution, and the management body or senior management shall have no liability to such shareholders or creditors for acts and omissions in the discharge of their duties unless the act or omission implies gross negligence or serious misconduct in accordance with national law which directly affects rights of such shareholders or creditors.

Member States may further limit the liability of a bridge institution and its management body or senior management in accordance with national law for acts and omissions in the discharge of their duties.

Article 41

Operation of a bridge institution

1.  

Member States shall ensure that the operation of a bridge institution respects the following requirements:

(a) 

the contents of the bridge institution’s constitutional documents are approved by the resolution authority;

(b) 

subject to the bridge institution’s ownership structure, the resolution authority either appoints or approves the bridge institution’s management body;

(c) 

the resolution authority approves the remuneration of the members of the management body and determines their appropriate responsibilities;

(d) 

the resolution authority approves the strategy and risk profile of the bridge institution;

(e) 

the bridge institution is authorised in accordance with Directive 2013/36/EU or Directive 2014/65/EU, as applicable, and has the necessary authorisation under the applicable national law to carry out the activities or services that it acquires by virtue of a transfer made pursuant to Article 63 of this Directive;

(f) 

the bridge institution complies with the requirements of, and is subject to supervision in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and with Directives 2013/36/EU and Directive 2014/65/EU, as applicable;

(g) 

the operation of the bridge institution shall be in accordance with the Union State aid framework and the resolution authority may specify restrictions on its operations accordingly.

Notwithstanding the provisions referred to in points (e) and (f) of the first subparagraph and where necessary to meet the resolution objectives, the bridge institution may be established and authorised without complying with Directive 2013/36/EU or Directive 2014/65/EU for a short period of time at the beginning of its operation. To that end, the resolution authority shall submit a request in that sense to the competent authority. If the competent authority decides to grant such an authorisation, it shall indicate the period for which the bridge institution is waived from complying with the requirements of those Directives.

2.  
Subject to any restrictions imposed in accordance with Union or national competition rules, the management of the bridge institution shall operate the bridge institution with a view to maintaining access to critical functions and selling the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1), its assets, rights or liabilities, to one or more private sector purchasers when conditions are appropriate and within the period specified in paragraph 4 of this Article or, where applicable, paragraph 6 of this Article.
3.  

The resolution authority shall take a decision that the bridge institution is no longer a bridge institution within the meaning of Article 40(2) in any of the following cases, whichever occurs first:

(a) 

the bridge institution merges with another entity;

(b) 

the bridge institution ceases to meet the requirements of Article 40(2);

(c) 

the sale of all or substantially all of the bridge institution’s assets, rights or liabilities to a third party;

(d) 

the expiry of the period specified in paragraph 5 or, where applicable, paragraph 6;

(e) 

the bridge institution’s assets are completely wound down and its liabilities are completely discharged.

4.  
Member States shall ensure, in cases when the resolution authority seeks to sell the bridge institution or its assets, rights or liabilities, that the bridge institution or the relevant assets or liabilities are marketed openly and transparently, and that the sale does not materially misrepresent them or unduly favour or discriminate between potential purchasers.

Any such sale shall be made on commercial terms, having regard to the circumstances and in accordance with the Union State aid framework.

5.  
If none of the outcomes referred to in points (a), (b), (c) and (e) of paragraph 3 applies, the resolution authority shall terminate the operation of a bridge institution as soon as possible and in any event two years after the date on which the last transfer from an institution under resolution pursuant to the bridge institution tool was made.
6.  

The resolution authority may extend the period referred to in paragraph 5 for one or more additional one-year periods where such an extension:

(a) 

supports the outcomes referred to in point (a), (b), (c) or (e) of paragraph 3; or

(b) 

is necessary to ensure the continuity of essential banking or financial services.

7.  
Any decision of the resolution authority to extend the period referred to in paragraph 5 shall be reasoned and shall contain a detailed assessment of the situation, including of the market conditions and outlook, that justifies the extension.
8.  
Where the operations of a bridge institution are terminated in the circumstances referred to in point (c) or (d) of paragraph 3, the bridge institution shall be wound up under normal insolvency proceedings.

Subject to Article 37(7), any proceeds generated as a result of the termination of the operation of the bridge institution shall benefit the shareholders of the bridge institution.

9.  
Where a bridge institution is used for the purpose of transferring assets and liabilities of more than one institution under resolution the obligation referred to in paragraph 8 shall refer to the assets and liabilities transferred from each of the institutions under resolution and not to the bridge institution itself.

Section 4

The asset separation tool

Article 42

Asset separation tool

1.  
In order to give effect to the asset separation tool, Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities have the power to transfer assets, rights or liabilities of an institution under resolution or a bridge institution to one or more asset management vehicles.

Subject to Article 85, the transfer referred to in the first subparagraph may take place without obtaining the consent of the shareholders of the institutions under resolution or any third party other than the bridge institution, and without complying with any procedural requirements under company or securities law.

2.  

For the purposes of the asset separation tool, an asset management vehicle shall be a legal person that meets all of the following requirements:

(a) 

it is wholly or partially owned by one or more public authorities which may include the resolution authority or the resolution financing arrangement and is controlled by the resolution authority;

(b) 

it has been created for the purpose of receiving some or all of the assets, rights and liabilities of one or more institutions under resolution or a bridge institution.

3.  
The asset management vehicle shall manage the assets transferred to it with a view to maximising their value through eventual sale or orderly wind down.
4.  

Member States shall ensure that the operation of an asset management vehicle respects the following provisions:

(a) 

the contents of the asset management vehicle’s constitutional documents are approved by the resolution authority;

(b) 

subject to the asset management vehicle’s ownership structure, the resolution authority either appoints or approves the vehicle’s management body;

(c) 

the resolution authority approves the remuneration of the members of the management body and determines their appropriate responsibilities;

(d) 

the resolution authority approves the strategy and risk profile of the asset management vehicle.

5.  

Resolution authorities may exercise the power specified in paragraph 1 to transfer assets, rights or liabilities only if:

(a) 

the situation of the particular market for those assets is of such a nature that the liquidation of those assets under normal insolvency proceedings could have an adverse effect on one or more financial markets.

(b) 

such a transfer is necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the institution under resolution or bridge institution; or

(c) 

such a transfer is necessary to maximise liquidation proceeds.

6.  
When applying the asset separation tool, resolution authorities shall determine the consideration for which assets, rights and liabilities are transferred to the asset management vehicle in accordance with the principles established in Article 36 and in accordance with the Union State aid framework. This paragraph does not prevent the consideration having nominal or negative value.
7.  
Subject to Article 37(7), any consideration paid by the asset management vehicle in respect of the assets, rights or liabilities acquired directly from the institution under resolution shall benefit the institution under resolution. Consideration may be paid in the form of debt issued by the asset management vehicle.
8.  
Where the bridge institution tool has been applied, an asset management vehicle may, subsequent to the application of the bridge institution tool, acquire assets, rights or liabilities from the bridge institution.
9.  
Resolution authorities may transfer assets, rights or liabilities from the institution under resolution to one or more asset management vehicles on more than one occasion and transfer assets, rights or liabilities back from one or more asset management vehicles to the institution under resolution provided that the conditions specified in paragraph 10 are met.

The institution under resolution shall be obliged to take back any such assets, rights or liabilities.

10.  

Resolution authorities may transfer rights, assets or liabilities back from the asset management vehicle to the institution under resolution in one of the following circumstances:

(a) 

the possibility that the specific rights, assets or liabilities might be transferred back is stated expressly in the instrument by which the transfer was made;

(b) 

the specific rights, assets or liabilities do not in fact fall within the classes of, or meet the conditions for transfer of, rights, assets or liabilities specified in the instrument by which the transfer was made.

In either of the cases referred in points (a) and (b), the transfer back may be made within any period, and shall comply with any other conditions, stated in that instrument for the relevant purpose.

11.  
Transfers between the institution under resolution and the asset management vehicle shall be subject to the safeguards for partial property transfers specified in Chapter VII of Title IV.
12.  
Without prejudice to Chapter VII of Title IV shareholders or creditors of the institution under resolution and other third parties whose assets, rights or liabilities are not transferred to the asset management vehicle shall not have any rights over or in relation to the assets, rights or liabilities transferred to the asset management vehicle or its management body or senior management.
13.  
The objectives of an asset management vehicle shall not imply any duty or responsibility to shareholders or creditors of the institution under resolution, and the management body or senior management shall have no liability to such shareholders or creditors for acts and omissions in the discharge of their duties unless the act or omission implies gross negligence or serious misconduct in accordance with national law which directly affects rights of such shareholders or creditors.

Member States may further limit the liability of an asset management vehicle and its management body or senior management in accordance with national law for acts and omissions in the discharge of their duties.

14.  
EBA shall, by 3 July 2015, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 to promote the convergence of supervisory and resolution practices regarding the determination when, in accordance to paragraph 5 of this Article the liquidation of the assets or liabilities under normal insolvency proceeding could have an adverse effect on one or more financial markets.

Section 5

The bail-in tool

Subsection 1

Objective and scope of the bail-in tool

Article 43

The bail-in tool

1.  
In order to give effect to the bail-in tool, Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities have the resolution powers specified in Article 63(1).
2.  

Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities may apply the bail-in tool to meet the resolution objectives specified in Article 31, in accordance with the resolution principles specified in Article 34 for any of the following purposes:

(a) 

to recapitalise an institution or an entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of this Directive that meets the conditions for resolution to the extent sufficient to restore its ability to comply with the conditions for authorisation (to the extent that those conditions apply to the entity) and to continue to carry out the activities for which it is authorised under Directive 2013/36/EU or Directive 2014/65/EU, where the entity is authorised under those Directives, and to sustain sufficient market confidence in the institution or entity;

(b) 

to convert to equity or reduce the principal amount of claims or debt instruments that are transferred:

(i) 

to a bridge institution with a view to providing capital for that bridge institution; or

(ii) 

under the sale of business tool or the asset separation tool.

3.  
Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities may apply the bail-in tool for the purpose referred to in point (a) of paragraph 2 of this Article only if there is a reasonable prospect that the application of that tool together with other relevant measures including measures implemented in accordance with the business reorganisation plan required by Article 52 will, in addition to achieving relevant resolution objectives, restore the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) in question to financial soundness and long-term viability.

Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities may apply any of the resolution tools referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) of Article 37(3), and the bail-in tool referred to in point (b) of paragraph 2 of this Article, where the conditions laid down in the first subparagraph are not met.

4.  
Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities may apply the bail-in tool to all institutions or entities referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) while respecting in each case the legal form of the institution or entity concerned or may change the legal form.

Article 44

2.  

Resolution authorities shall not exercise the write down or conversion powers in relation to the following liabilities whether they are governed by the law of a Member State or of a third country:

(a) 

covered deposits;

(b) 

secured liabilities including covered bonds and liabilities in the form of financial instruments used for hedging purposes which form an integral part of the cover pool and which according to national law are secured in a way similar to covered bonds;

(c) 

any liability that arises by virtue of the holding by the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of this Directive of client assets or client money including client assets or client money held on behalf of UCITS as defined in Article 1(2) of Directive 2009/65/EC or of AIFs as defined in point (a) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2011/61/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 10 ), provided that such a client is protected under the applicable insolvency law;

(d) 

any liability that arises by virtue of a fiduciary relationship between the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) (as fiduciary) and another person (as beneficiary) provided that such a beneficiary is protected under the applicable insolvency or civil law;

(e) 

liabilities to institutions, excluding entities that are part of the same group, with an original maturity of less than seven days;

▼M3

(f) 

dliteanais a bhfuil aibíocht níos lú ná seacht lá fágtha iontu, atá dlite do chórais nó d'oibreoirí córas atá ainmnithe i gcomhréir le Treoir 98/26/CE nó dá rannpháirtithe agus a thagann as rannpháirtíocht i gcóras den chineál sin, nó do contrapháirtithe lárnacha arna n-údarú san Aontas de bhun Airteagal 14 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 648/2012 agus contrapháirtithe lárnacha de chuid tríú tíortha arna n-aithint ag ESMA de bhun Airteagal 25 den Rialachán sin;

▼B

(g) 

a liability to any one of the following:

(i) 

an employee, in relation to accrued salary, pension benefits or other fixed remuneration, except for the variable component of remuneration that is not regulated by a collective bargaining agreement;

(ii) 

a commercial or trade creditor arising from the provision to the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) of goods or services that are critical to the daily functioning of its operations, including IT services, utilities and the rental, servicing and upkeep of premises;

(iii) 

tax and social security authorities, provided that those liabilities are preferred under the applicable law;

(iv) 

deposit guarantee schemes arising from contributions due in accordance with Directive 2014/49/EU;

▼M3

(h) 

dliteanais, chuig institiúidí nó eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) a bhaineann leis an ngrúpa réitigh céanna ach nach eintitis réitigh iad féin per se, gan beann ar a gcuid aibíochtaí, seachas i gcás inarb ísle rangú do na dliteanais sin ná do ghnáthdhliteanais neamhurraithe faoin dlí ábhartha náisiúnta lena rialaítear gnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta agus is infheidhme ar dháta trasuí na Treorach seo; i gcásanna ina bhfuil feidhm ag an eisceacht sin, déanfaidh údarás réitigh na fochuideachta ábhartha nach eintiteas réitigh a mheasúnú cé acu is leor nó nach leor líon na n-ítimí a chomhlíonann Airteagal 45f(2) chun go gcuirfí chun feidhme straitéis réitigh na tosaíochta.

▼B

Point (g)(i) of the first subparagraph shall not apply to the variable component of the remuneration of material risk takers as identified in Article 92(2) of Directive 2013/36/EU.

Member States shall ensure that all secured assets relating to a covered bond cover pool remain unaffected, segregated and with enough funding. Neither that requirement nor point (b) of the first subparagraph shall prevent resolution authorities, where appropriate, from exercising those powers in relation to any part of a secured liability or a liability for which collateral has been pledged that exceeds the value of the assets, pledge, lien or collateral against which it is secured.

Point (a) of the first subparagraph shall not prevent resolution authorities, where appropriate, from exercising those powers in relation to any amount of a deposit that exceeds the coverage level provided for in Article 6 of Directive 2014/49/EU.

Without prejudice to the large exposure rules in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and Directive 2013/36/EU, Member States shall ensure that in order to provide for the resolvability of institutions and groups, resolution authorities limit, in accordance with point (b) of Article 17(5) of this Directive, the extent to which other institutions hold ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ , save for liabilities that are held at entities that are part of the same group.

3.  

In exceptional circumstances, where the bail-in tool is applied, the resolution authority may exclude or partially exclude certain liabilities from the application of the write-down or conversion powers where:

(a) 

it is not possible to bail-in that liability within a reasonable time notwithstanding the good faith efforts of the resolution authority;

(b) 

the exclusion is strictly necessary and is proportionate to achieve the continuity of critical functions and core business lines in a manner that maintains the ability of the institution under resolution to continue key operations, services and transactions;

(c) 

the exclusion is strictly necessary and proportionate to avoid giving rise to widespread contagion, in particular as regards eligible deposits held by natural persons and micro, small and medium sized enterprises, which would severely disrupt the functioning of financial markets, including of financial market infrastructures, in a manner that could cause a serious disturbance to the economy of a Member State or of the Union; or

(d) 

the application of the bail-in tool to those liabilities would cause a destruction in value such that the losses borne by other creditors would be higher than if those liabilities were excluded from bail-in.

▼M3

I dtaca le dliteanais chuig institiúidí nó eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) den Treoir seo, a bhaineann leis an ngrúpa réitigh céanna ach nach eintitis réitigh iad féin per se, agus nach n- eisiatar ó chur i bhfeidhm na gcumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó faoi phointe (h) de mhír (2) den Airteagal seo, déanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh measúnú go cúramach ar cé acu is ceart nó nach ceart iad a eisiamh go huile nó go páirteach faoi phointí (a) go (d) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo d'fhonn a áirithiú go gcuirtear an straitéis réitigh chun feidhme go héifeachtúil.

I gcás ina ndéanann eitinteas réitigh dliteanas in-fhortharrthála, nó aicme dliteanas in-fhortharrthála, a eisiamh nó a eisiamh go páirteach faoin mhír seo, féadfar leibhéal na díluachála nó an chomhshó a chuirtear i bhfeidhm maidir le dliteanais infhortharrthála eile a mhéadú chun eisiamh den sórt sin a chur san áireamh, ar choinníoll go gcomhlíonann leibhéal na díluachála agus an chomhshó a chuirtear i bhfeidhm maidir le dliteanais in-fhortharrthála eile an prionsabal i bpointe (g) d'Airteagal 34(1).

4.  

I gcás ina gcinnfidh údarás réitigh dliteanas in-fhortharrthála nó aicme dliteanas in-fhortharrthála a eisiamh nó a eisiamh go páirteach de bhun an Airteagail seo, agus nár tugadh ar aghaidh na caillteanais a bheadh dlite do na dliteanais sin go hiomlán do chreidiúnaithe eile, féadfaidh an socrú um maoiniú réitigh ranníocaíocht a dhéanamh leis an institiúid faoi réiteach chun ceann amháin nó an dá cheann díobh seo a leanas a dhéanamh:

(a) 

aon chaillteanais nach bhfuil glactha ag dliteanais in-fhortharrthála a chumhdach agus glanluach sócmhainní na hinstitiúide faoi réiteach a aisíoc go nialas i gcomhréir le pointe (a) d'Airteagal 46 (1);

(b) 

scaireanna nó ionstraimí eile úinéireachta nó ionstraimí caipitil a cheannach san institiúid faoi réiteach, chun an institiúid a athchaipitliú i gcomhréir le pointe (b) d'Airteagal 46 (1).

5.  

The resolution financing arrangement may make a contribution referred to in paragraph 4 only where:

(a) 

a contribution to loss absorption and recapitalisation equal to an amount not less than 8 % of the total liabilities including own funds of the institution under resolution, measured at the time of resolution action in accordance with the valuation provided for in Article 36, has been made by the shareholders and the holders of other instruments of ownership, the holders of relevant capital instruments and other ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ through write down, conversion or otherwise; and

(b) 

the contribution of the resolution financing arrangement does not exceed 5 % of the total liabilities including own funds of the institution under resolution, measured at the time of resolution action in accordance with the valuation provided for in Article 36.

6.  

The contribution of the resolution financing arrangement referred to in paragraph 4 may be financed by:

(a) 

the amount available to the resolution financing arrangement which has been raised through contributions by institutions and Union branches in accordance with Article 100(6) and Article 103;

(b) 

the amount that can be raised through ex-post contributions in accordance with Article 104 within three years; and

(c) 

where the amounts referred to (a) and (b) of this paragraph are insufficient, amounts raised from alternative financing sources in accordance with Article 105.

7.  

In extraordinary circumstances, the resolution authority may seek further funding from alternative financing sources after:

(a) 

the 5 % limit specified in paragraph 5(b) has been reached; and

(b) 

all unsecured, non-preferred liabilities, other than eligible deposits, have been written down or converted in full.

As an alternative or in addition, where the conditions laid down in the first subparagraph are met, the resolution financing arrangement may make a contribution from resources which have been raised through ex-ante contributions in accordance with Article 100(6) and Article 103 and which have not yet been used.

8.  

By way of derogation from paragraph 5 (a), the resolution financing arrangement may also make a contribution as referred to in paragraph 4 provided that:

(a) 

the contribution to loss absorption and recapitalisation referred to in point (a) of paragraph 5 is equal to an amount not less than 20 % of the risk weighted assets of the institution concerned;

(b) 

the resolution financing arrangement of the Member State concerned has at its disposal, by way of ex-ante contributions (not including contributions to a deposit guarantee scheme) raised in accordance with Article 100(6) and Article 103, an amount which is at least equal to 3 % of covered deposits of all the credit institutions authorised in the territory of that Member State; and

(c) 

the institution concerned has assets below EUR 900 billion on a consolidated basis.

9.  

When exercising the discretions under paragraph 3, resolution authorities shall give due consideration to:

(a) 

the principle that losses should be borne first by shareholders and next, in general, by creditors of the institution under resolution in order of preference;

(b) 

the level of loss absorbing capacity that would remain in the institution under resolution if the liability or class of liabilities were excluded; and

(c) 

the need to maintain adequate resources for resolution financing.

10.  
Exclusions under paragraph 3 may be applied either to completely exclude a liability from write down or to limit the extent of the write down applied to that liability.
11.  
The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 115 in order to specify further the circumstances when exclusion is necessary to achieve the objectives specified in paragraph 3 of this Article.
12.  
Before exercising the discretion to exclude a liability under paragraph 3, the resolution authority shall notify the Commission. Where the exclusion would require a contribution by the resolution financing arrangement or an alternative financing source under paragraphs 4 to 8, the Commission may, within 24 hours of receipt of such a notification, or a longer period with the agreement of the resolution authority, prohibit or require amendments to the proposed exclusion if the requirements of this Article and delegated acts are not met in order to protect the integrity of the internal market. This is without prejudice to the application by the Commission of the Union State aid framework.

Airteagal 45a

Díolmhú ón íoscheanglas maidir le cistí dílse agus dliteanais incháilithe

1.  

D'ainneoin Airteagal 45, déanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh institiúidí creidmheasa morgáiste a mhaoinítear le bannaí faoi chumhdach nach bhfuil cead acu, de réir an dlí náisiúnta, taiscí a fháil a dhíolmhú ón gceanglas a leagtar síos in Airteagal 45(1) ar choinníoll go gcomhlíontar na coinníollacha seo a leanas go léir:

(a) 

foirceannfar na hinstitiúidí sin in himeachtaí náisiúnta dócmhainneachta, nó i gcineálacha eile imeachtaí a leagtar síos do na hinstitiúidí sin agus a chuirfear chun feidhme i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 38, Airteagal 40 nó Airteagal 42; agus

(b) 

áiritheofar leis na himeachta dá dtagraitear i mír (a), go n-iompróidh creidiúnaithe na n-institiúidí sin, lena n-áirítear sealbhóirí bannaí faoi chumhdach, i gcás inarb ábhartha, caillteanais ar shlí a chomhlíonfadh cuspóirí réitigh.

2.  
Ní bheidh institiúidí a díolmhaíodh ón gceanglas a leagtar síos in Airteagal 45(1) ina gcuid den chomhdhlúthú dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e(1).

Airteagal 45b

Dliteanais incháilithe le haghaidh eintitis réitigh

1.  

Ní chuimseofar dliteanais i méid chistí dílse agus dhliteanas na n-eintiteas réitigh ach amháin má chomhlíonann siad na coinníollacha dá dtagraítear sna hAirteagail seo a leanas de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013:

(a) 

Airteagal 72a;

(b) 

Airteagal 72b, cé is moite de phointe (d) de mhír 2; agus

(c) 

Airteagal 72c.

De mhaolú ar an gcéad fhomhír den mhír seo, i gcás ina dtagraítear sa Treoir seo do na ceanglais atá in Airteagal 92a nó in Airteagal 92b de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, is éard a bheidh i gceist le dliteanais incháilithe, chun críche na nAirteagal sin, dliteanais incháilithe mar a shainmhínítear iad in Airteagal 72k den Rialachán sin agus mar a chinntear iad i gcomhréir le Caibidil 5a de Theideal I de Chuid a Dó den Rialachán sin.

2.  

I dtaca le dliteanais a eascraíonn as ionstraimí fiachais ina bhfuil comhpháirt dhíorthach leabaithe, amhail nótaí struchtúrtha, a chomhlíonann na coinníollacha atá sa chéad fhomhír de mhír 1, cé is moite de phointe (l) d'Airteagal 72a(2) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, ní áireofar iad i suim na gcistí dílse agus dliteanais incháilithe ach i gcás ina gcomhlíontar ceann amháin de na coinníollacha seo a leanas:

(a) 

is eol, tráth a eisítear í, príomhshuim na ndliteanas a eascraíonn as an ionstraim fiachais, tá sí socraithe, nó ag méadú, agus níl aon bheann uirthi ag an ngné dhíorthach neadaithe, is féidir méid iomlán an dliteanais a eascraíonn as an ionstraim fiachais lena n-áirítear an díorthach neadaithe a luacháil ar bhonn laethúil i leith margadh dhá threo leachtach gníomhach d'ionstraim choibhéiseach gan riosca creidmheasa i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 104 agus Airteagal 105 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, nó

(b) 

áirítear mar chuid den ionstraim fiachais téarma conarthach ina sonraítear, i gcás dócmhainneacht an eisitheora nó i gcásanna réiteach an eisitheora,ar aon go bhfuil luach an éilimh a dhéanfaidh an t-eisitheoir socraithe nó ag méadú, agus nach mó é ná an tsuim tosaigh a íocadh i leith an dliteanais.

I dtaca le hionstraimí fiachais dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír, lena n-áirítear a gcuid díorthach neadaithe, ní bheidh siad faoi réir aon chomhaontú glanluachála agus ní bheidh luacháil na n-ionstraimí sin faoi réir Airteagal 49(3).

Ní chuimseofar na dliteanais dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír i méid na gcistí dílse agus dliteanas incháilithe ach i gcás na coda den dliteanas a chomhfhreagraíonn don phríomhshuim dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) den bhfomhír sin nó don tsuim shocraithe nó mhéadaitheach dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b) den fhomhír sin.

3.  

Maidir le dliteanais arna n-eisiúint ag fochuideachta atá bunaithe san Aontas do cheann dá scairshealbhóir atá ann cheana agus nach cuid den ghrúpa réitigh céanna é, agus go bhfuil an fhochuideachta sin mar chuid den ghrúpa réitigh céanna leis an eintiteas réitigh, cuimseofar na dliteanais sin mar chuid de chistí dílse agus dhliteanas incháilithe an eintitis réitigh sin ar choinníoll go gcomhlíonfar na coinníollacha uile seo a leanas:

(a) 

is i gcomhréir le pointe (a) d'Airteagal 45f(2) a eisítear iad;

(b) 

ní dhéantar difear, ach a bhfeidhmítear an chumhacht chun díluacháil nó comhshó a dhéanamh i dtaca leis na dliteanais sin i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 nó Airteagal 62, don rialú a dhéanann an t-eintiteas réitigh ar an bhfochuideachta;

(c) 

ní mó na dliteanais sin ná an méid a chinnfear tríd an tsuim seo a leanas a dhealú:

(i) 

suim na ndliteanas arna n-eisiúint don eintiteas réitigh agus a cheannaigh an t-eintiteas réitigh sin go díreach nó go hindíreach trí eintitis eile sa ghrúpa réitigh céanna agus méid na gcistí dílse arna n-eisiúint i gcomhréir le pointe (b) d'Airteagal 45f(2) ó;

(ii) 

an méid is gá de bhun Airteagal 45f(1).

4.  

Gan dochar don íoscheanglas atá in Airteagal 45c(5) nó pointe (a) d'Airteagal 45d(1)(a), áiritheoidh na húdaráis réitigh go ndéanfaidh eintitis réitigh ar GSIIanna iad nó ar eintitis réitigh atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5)nó (6) iad, cuid den cheanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e is comhionann le 8 % de na dliteanais iomlána, lena n-áirítear cistí dílse, a chomhlíonadh lena gcistí dílse féin, le hionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe nó le dliteanais dá dtagraítear i mír 3 den Airteagal seo. Féadfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a cheadú go bhféadfaidh údaráis réitigh ar GSIIanna iad nó ar eintitis réitigh atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) nó (6) iad, leibhéal is ísle ná 8 % d'iomlán na ndliteanas, lena n-áirítear cistí dílse, ach is airde ná an méid is toradh ar chur i bhfeidhm na foirmle (1-X1/X2) x8 % de na dliteanais iomlána, lena n-áirítear cistí dílse, a chomhlíonadh lena gcistí dílse féin, le hionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe nó le dliteanais dá dtagraítear i mír 3 den Airteagal seo, ar an gcoinníoll go gcomhlíontar na coinníollacha uile a leagtar amach in Airteagal 72b(3) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, agus i gcás ina gcomhlíontar, i bhfianaise an laghdaithe is ceadmhach faoi Airteagal 72b (3) den Rialachán, gur fíor an méid seo a leanas:

X1 = 3.5 % de mhéid iomlán na neamhchosanta ar riosca arna ríomh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 92(3) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013; agus
X2 = toradh 18 % de mhéid iomlán na neamhchosanta ar riosca arna ríomh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 92(3) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013; agus suim an cheanglais mhaoláin chomhcheangailte.

I dtaca le heintitis réitigh atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5), más rud é gur ceanglas is airde ná 27 % de mhéid iomlán na neamhchosanta ar riosca is toradh ar chur i bhfeidhm na chéad fhomhíre den mhír seo, teorannóidh an t-údarás réitigh, i gcás an einteatas réitigh lena mbaineann, an chuid sin den cheanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e, atá le comhlíonadh le húsáid cistí dílse, le hionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe, nó leis na dliteanais dá dtagraítear i mír 3 den Airteagal seo – do mhéid is ionann agus 27 % de mhéid iomlán na neamhchosanta riosca, má mheasann an t-údarás réitigh an méid seo a leanas:

(a) 

ní mheastar gur féidir an t-eintiteas réitigh sin sa socrú reitigh a réiteach fiú má thugtar rochtain dó ar an socrú maoinithe réitigh; agus

(b) 

san áit nach infheidhme pointe (a), ceadaítear don eintiteas réitigh sin de bhíthin an cheanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e na ceanglais atá in Airteagal 44(5) nó Airteagal 44(8) a chomhlíonadh, mar is infheidhme.

Agus an measúnú dá dtagraítear sa dara fomhír á chur i gcrích, cuirfidh an t-údarás réitigh san áireamh an riosca go mbeidh tionchar díréireach ar shamhail ghnó an eintitis réitigh lena mbaineann.

Ní infheidhme an dara fomhír den mhír seo d'eintitis réitigh atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(6).

5.  

I gcás eintitis réitigh nach GSIIanna iad ná eintitis réitigh atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) nó (6) féadfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a chinneadh go ndéanfar cuid den cheanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e nach airde ná 8 % de dhliteanais iomlána an eintitis réitigh, lena n-áirítear cistí dílse, móide an fhoirmle dá dtagraítear i mír 7, a chomhlíonadh trí chistí dílse, ionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe hionstraimí nó dliteanais dá dtagraítear i mír 3 den Airteagal seo a úsáid, ar choinníoll go gcomhlíontar na coinníollacha seo a leanas:

(a) 

tá an t-aicmiú tosaíochta céanna ag dliteanais neamh-fho-ordaithe san ordlathas dócmhainneachta náisiúnta dá dtagraítear i mír 1 agus agus mír 2 den Airteagal seo agus atá ag dliteanais atá eisiata ó chur i bhfeidhm na gcumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(2) nó Airteagal 44(3);

(b) 

tá riosca ann go dtabhóidh creidiúnaithe éileamh a tháinig as dliteanais neamh-fho-ordaithe nach bhfuil eisiata ó chur i bhfeidhm cumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(2) nó Airteagal 44(3), go dtabhódh siad caillteanais níos mó ná a thabhódh siad i bhfoirceannadh faoi ghnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta mar gheall ar chur i bhfeidhm beartaithe cumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó maidir leis na dliteanais sin.

(c) 

ní bheidh méid na gcistí dílse agus na ndliteanas fo-ordaithe eile os cionn an méid is gá chun a áirithiú nach dtabhóidh creidiúnaithe dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b) caillteanais os cionn leibhéal na gcaillteanas a thabhóidís ina mhalairt de chás i bhfoirceannadh faoi ghnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta.

I gcás ina gcinnfidh an t-údarás réitigh gurb amhlaidh, laistigh d'aicme dliteanas lena gcuimsítear dliteanais incháilithe, gur mó é méid na ndliteanas a bhfuil sé réasúnta dóchúil go n-eisiafar iad ó chur i bhfeidhm cumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(2) nó Airteagal 44(3), gur mó é ná 10 % den aicme sin, déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh an riosca dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo a mheasúnú.

6.  
Chun críocha mhír 4, mhír 5 agus mhír 7, áireofar dliteanais dhíorthacha sna dliteanais iomlána ar an mbonn go dtugtar lánaitheantas do chearta glanluachála contrapháirtí.

Cistí dílse de chuid eintiteas réitigh a úsáidtear chun an ceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte a chomhlíonadh, beidh siad incháilithe chun na ceanglais dá dtagraítear i mír 4, i mír 5 agus i mír 7 a chomhlíonadh.

7.  

De mhaolú ar mhír 4 den Airteagal seo, féadfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a chinneadh gur eintitis réitigh ar GSIIanna iad nó ar eintitis réitigh atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) agus (6) den Treoir seo iad a dhéanfaidh na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e den Treoir seo a chomhlíonadh, le cistí dílse, le ionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe, nó le dliteanais dá dtagraítear i mír 3 den Airteagal seo, a mhéid is nach airde suim na gcistí dílse, na n-ionstraimí, ná na ndliteanas sin – mar gheall ar an oibleagáid atá ar an eintiteas réitigh cloí leis an gceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte agus na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 92a de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, Airteagal 45c(5) agus Airteagal 45e den Treoir seo – ná an tsuim is airde díobh seo a leanas:

(a) 

8 % de dhliteanais iomlána, lena n-áirítear cistí dílse, an eintitis réitigh, nó,

(b) 

an méid is toradh do chur i bhfeidhm na foirmle Ax2+Bx2+C, nuair is ionann A, B agus C agus na suimeanna seo a leanas:

A = an méid a eascraíonn as an gceanglas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (c)d'Airteagal 92(1) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013;
B = an méid a eascraíonn as an gceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE;
C = an méid a eascraíonn as an gceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte.
8.  
Féadfaidh na húdaráis réitigh an chumhacht dá dtagraítear i mír 7 den Airteagal seo a fheidhmiú i dtaca leis na heintitis réitigh ar G-SIIanna iad nó atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) nó (6), agus a chomhlíonann ceann de na coinníollacha a leagtar síos sa dara fomhír den mhír seo, ar choinníoll nach mó líon na n-eintiteas réitigh a shainaithnítear ná 30 % de na heintitis réitigh ar G-SIIanna iad nó atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) nó (6) agus arb é an t-údarás réitigh a chinneann an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e ina leith.

Is iad na coinníollacha a leanas a bhreithneoidh na húdaráis réitigh:

(a) 

táthar tar éis baic ar inréititheacht a shainaithint sa mheasúnú inréiteachta roimhe sin, agus:

(i) 

ní dhearnadh aon ghníomhaíocht feabhais tar éis chur i bhfeidhm na mbeart dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 17(5), san amlíne a éilíonn an t-údarás réitigh, nó

(ii) 

ní féidir aghaidh a thabhairt ar an mbac substaintiúil a sainaithníodh le haon cheann de na bearta dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 17(5), agus dhéanfaí tionchar diúltach na mbaic substainteach ar inréititheacht a chúiteamh go páirteach nó go hiomlán tríd an gcumhacht dá dtagraítear i mír 7 den Airteagal seo a fheidhmiú, nó

(b) 

measann an t-údarás réitigh go bhfuil teorainn le hindéantacht agus le creidiúnacht straitéis réitigh tosaíochta an eintitis réitigh, agus aird á tabhairt ar mhéid agus idirnascacht an eintitis, nádúr, raon feidhme, riosca agus castacht ghníomhaíochtaí an eintitis, stádas dlíthiúil an eintitis agus struchtúr scairshealbhóireachta an eintitis, nó

(c) 

is léiriú é an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE gur G-SII atá san eintiteas réitigh nó go bhfuil sé faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) nó (6) den Treoir seo, i dtéarmaí riosca, i measc 20 % is airde d'institiúidí arb é an t-údarás réitigh a chinneann an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) ina leith den Treoir seo.

Chun críocha na gcéatadán dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír agus sa dara fomhír, déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh an uimhir a eascraíonn as an ríomh a shlánú suas go dtí an uimhir iomlán is gaire.

Trí shainiúlachtaí an chórais baincéireachta náisiúnta acu féin a chur san áireamh, lena n-áirítear go háirithe eintitis réitigh ar GSIIanna iad nó atá faoi réir Airteagal 45c(5) nó (6) agus arb é an t-údarás náisiúnta réitigh a chinneann an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e ina leith, féadfaidh na Ballstáit an céatadán dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír a shocrú ar leibhéal is airde ná 30 %.

9.  
Is tar éis dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil amháin a ghlacfaidh an t-údarás réitigh na cinnti dá dtagraítear i mír 5 nó i mír 7.

Agus na cinntí sin á ndéanamh ag an údarás réitigh, cuirfidh sé san áireamh an méid seo a leanas:

(a) 

doimhneacht an mhargaidh atá ann d'ionstraimí cistí an eintitis réitigh agus d'ionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe, praghsáil na n-ionstraimí sin, i gcás inarb ann dóibh, mar aon leis an am a theastaíonn chun idirbhearta a chur i gcrích a bhfuil gá leo chun go mbeifear in ann an cinneadh a chomhlíonadh;

(b) 

méid na n-ionstraimí dliteanais incháilithe a chomhlíonann na coinníollacha uile dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 72a de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 a bhfuil aibíocht iarmhair acu is giorra ná aon bhliain amháin ón dáta a ndearnadh an cinneadh, d'fhonn go ndéanfaí coigeartuithe cainníochtúla ar na ceanglais dá dtagraítear i mír 5 agus i mír 7 den Airteagal seo;

(c) 

infhaighteacht agus líon na n-ionstraimí a chomhlíonann na coinníollacha uile dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 72a de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013, seachas pointe (d) d'Airteagal 72b(2) den Rialachán sin;

(d) 

an suntasach, le hais dliteanais incháilithe agus cistí dílse an eintitis réitigh, líon na ndliteanas a eisiatar ó chur i bhfeidhm na gcumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(2) nó le hAirteagal 44(3) agus a rangaítear, i ngnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta, ar aon chéim leis na dliteanais incháilithe is airde rangú nó faoina mbun. I gcás nach mó méid na ndliteanas eisiata ná 5 % de mhéid na gcistí dílse agus na ndliteanas incháilithe de chuid an eintitis réitigh, measfar gur gan suntas an méid a eisiadh. Más airde ná an tairseach sin, déanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh na dliteanais eisiata a mheasúnú;

(e) 

samhail ghnó, samhail mhaoinithe, agus próifíl riosca an eintitis réitigh, chomh maith lena chobhsaíocht agus a chumas rannchuidiú leis an ngeilleagar; agus

(f) 

an tionchar a bheadh ag costais fhéideartha athstruchtúrúcháin ar athchaipitliú an eintitis réitigh.

Airteagal 45c

An t-íoscheanglas maidir le cistí dílse agus dliteanais incháilithe a chinneadh

1.  

Is é an t-údarás réitigh, tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, a chinnfidh an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) i gcás gach eintitis, ar bhonn na gcritéar seo a leanas:

(a) 

an gá atá ann a áirithiú gur féidir an grúpa réitigh a réiteach trí na huirlisí, lena n-áirítear, an uirlis fortharrthála, a chur i bhfeidhm ar an eintiteas réitigh ar chaoi a chomhlíonann na cuspóirí réitigh;

(b) 

an gá atá ann a áirithiú, i gcás inarb iomchuí, go mbeidh cistí dílse agus dliteanais incháilithe leordhóthanacha ag an eintiteas réitigh gona fhochuideachtaí ar institiúidí nó eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) iad ach nach eintitis réitigh iad, chun a áirithiú, dá gcuirfíí i bhfeidhm orthu an uirlis fortharrthála nó na cumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó, faoi seach, gurbh fhéidir caillteanais a ionsú agus gurbh fhéidir an cóimheas caipitil iomlán a athbhunú agus, mar is infheidhme, cóimheas luamhánaithe na n-eintiteas ábhartha a thabhairt ar ais go dtí an leibhéal is gá chun gur féidir leo leanúint de bheith ag comhlíonadh na gcoinníollacha maidir le húdarú agus leanúint de na gníomhaíochtaí a bhfuil siad údaraithe ina leith faoi Threoir 2013/36/AE nó Treoir 2014/65/AE;

(c) 

an gá atá ann a áirithiú gur leor, má tá coinne sa phlean réitigh gur féidir go mbeidh aicmí áirithe dliteanas incháilithe eisiata ón bhfortharrtháil de bhun Airteagal 44(3) den Treoir seo, nó go n-aistreofar iad chuig faighteoir go hiomlán faoi pháirt-aistriú, gur leor na cistí dílse agus dliteanais incháilithe eile atá ag eintiteas réitigh chun a áirithiú gur féidir caillteanais a iompar agus gur féidir a chóimheas caipitil iomlán, agus más infheidhme, a chóimheas luamhánaithe a athbhunú go dtí an leibhéal is gá chun gur féidir leis leanúint de bheith ag comhlíonadh na gcoinníollacha maidir le húdarú agus leanúint de na gníomhaíochtaí a bhfuil sé údaraithe ina leith faoi Threoir 2013/36/AE nó Treoir 2014/65/AE;

(d) 

méid, samhail ghnó, samhail mhaoinithe agus próifíl riosca na hinstitiúide agus an eintitis;

a mhéid a dhéanfadh cliseadh an eintitis dochar do chobhsaíocht airgeadais, lena n-áirítear trí aicídiú an eintitis le hinstitiúidí nó eintitis eile mar gheall ar idirnascthacht an eintitis le hinstitiúidí nó eintitis eile nó leis an gcuid eile den chóras airgeadais.

2.  

Má fhoráiltear sa phlean réitigh go bhfuil an ghníomhaíocht réitigh le déanamh nó go bhfuil an chumhacht chun ionstraimí caipitil agus dliteanais incháilithe ábhartha a dhíluacháil agus a chomhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 le feidhmiú, i gcomhréir leis an gcás dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 10(3), beidh an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) cothrom le pé méid is leor chun a áirithiú:

(a) 

go n-ionsúfar go hiomlán na caillteanais ar féidir go mbeifí ag súil go dtabhódh an t-eintiteas iad ('ionsú caillteanas');

(b) 

go n-athchaipitleofar an t-eintiteas réitigh gona fhochuideachtaí ar institiúidí nó eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) n Airteagal 1(1) iad, ach nach eintitis réitigh, go dtí an leibhéal is gá chun gur féidir leo leanúint de bheith ag comhlíonadh na gcoinníollacha maidir le húdarú agus leanúint de na gníomhaíochtaí a bhfuil siad údaraithe ina leith faoi Threoir 2013/36/AE, Treoir 2014/65/AE nó a choibhéis de ghníomh reachtach ar feadh tréimhse iomchuí nach faide ná bliain amháin ('athchaipitliú').

I gcás ina bhforáiltear sa phlean réitigh go bhfuil an t-eintiteas le foirceannadh faoi ghnáthimeachtaí dócmhainneachta, nó faoi nósanna imeachta náisiúnta coibhéiseacha eile, measfaidh an t-údarás réitigh cé acu atá nó nach bhfuil bonn cirt le teorannú a dhéanamh ar an gceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) le haghaidh an eintitis sin, ionas nach mbeidh sé os cionn méid is leor chun caillteanais a iompar i gcomhréir le pointe (a) den chéad fhomhír.

Sa mheasúnú a dhéanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh, déanfar meastóireacht ar an teorainn dá dtagraítear sa dara fomhír maidir le haon tionchar a d'fhéadfadh a bheith ar an gcobhsaíocht airgeadais agus ar an riosca aicídithe i ndáil leis an gcóras airgeadais.

3.  

I gcás eintitis réitigh, is éard a bheidh sa mhéid dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír de mhír 2 an méid seo a leanas:

(a) 

chun an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) a ríomh, i gcomhréir le pointe (a) d'Airteagal 45(2), suim na méideanna seo a leanas:

(i) 

an méid caillteanas atá le hionsú i réiteach a chomhfhreagraíonn do cheanglais an eintitis réitigh dá dtagraítear i bpointe (c) d'Airteagal 92(1) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE ar leibhéal an ghrúpa réitigh fo-chomhdhlúite;

(ii) 

méid athchaipitliúcháin lenar féidir leis an ngrúpa réitigh a tháinig as réiteach an comhlíonadh lena cheanglas i leith cóimheas caipitil iomlán dá dtagraítear i bpointe (c) d'Airteagal 92(1) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 a athbhunú agus a cheanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE ar leibhéal comhdhlúite an ghrúpa réitigh tar éis straitéis réitigh na tosaíochta a chur chun feidhme; agus

(b) 

chun an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) a ríomh, i gcomhréir le pointe (b) d'Airteagal 45(2), suim na méideanna seo a leanas:

(i) 

méid na gcaillteanas atá le hionsú i réiteach a chomhfhreagraíonn do chóimheas luamhánaithe an eintitis réitigh dá dtagraítear i bpointe (d) d'Airteagal 92(1) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 ar leibhéal comhdhlúite an ghrúpa réitigh; agus

(ii) 

méid athchaipitliúcháin lenar féidir leis an ngrúpa réitigh a tháinig as réiteach an comhlíonadh leis an gceanglas cóimheasa luamhánaithe dá dtagraítear i bpointe (d) d'Airteagal 92(1)(d) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 a athbhunú ar leibhéal comhdhlúite an ghrúpa réitigh tar éis straitéis réitigh na tosaíochta a chur chun feidhme.

Chun críocha phointe (a) d'Airteagal 45(2), sloinnfear an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) i dtéarmaí céatadán mar an méid a ríomhadh i gcomhréir le pointe (a) den chéad fhomhír, roinnte ar mhéid na neamhchosanta ar riosca iomlán.

Chun críocha phointe (b) d'Airteagal 45(2), sloinnfear an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) i dtéarmaí céatadán mar an méid a ríomhadh i gcomhréir le pointe (b) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo, roinnte ar thomhas na neamhchosanta iomláine.

Agus an ceanglas aonair dá bhforáiltear i bpointe (b) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo á socrú aige, cuirfidh an t-údarás réitigh san áireamh na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagail 37(10), 44(5) agus 44(8).

Agus na méideanna athchaipitliúcháin dá dtagraítear sna fomhíreanna roimhe seo á socrú, déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh:

(a) 

leas a bhaint as na luachanna tuairiscithe is déanaí le haghaidh mhéid iomlán ábhartha na neamhchosanta ar riosca nó thomhas na neamhchosanta iomláine, arna choigeartú le haghaidh aon athruithe a thagann as gníomhaíochtaí réitigh a leagtar amach sa phlean réitigh; agus

(b) 

tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, an méid atá comhfhreagrach leis an gceanglas atá ann faoi láthair dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE a choigeartú anuas nó aníos chun an ceanglas atá le feidhm a bheith aige maidir leis an eintiteas réitigh a chinneadh tar éis chur chun feidhme straitéis réitigh na tosaíochta.

Beidh an t-údarás réitigh in ann an ceanglas dá bhforáiltear i bpointe (a) (ii) den chéad fhomhír a mhéadú méid iomchuí is gá chun a áirithiú go bhfuil an t-eintiteas in ann muinín mhargaidh leordhóthanach a chothú, tar éis an réitigh, ar feadh tréimhse ama iomchuí, nach faide ná bliain amháin.

I gcás ina mbeidh feidhm ag an séú fomhír den mhír seo, is é a bheidh sa mhéid dá dtagráitear san fhomhír sin méid is ionann agus an ceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte a bhfuil feidhm le bheith aige tar éis chur i bhfeidhm na n-uirlisí réitigh, lúide an méid dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) de phointe (6) d'Airteagal 128 de Threoir 2013/36/ AE.

Déanfar an méid dá dtagraítear sa séú fomhír den mhír seo a choigeartú anuas más rud é, tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, go gcinneann an t-údarás réitigh, gurb indéanta agus inchreidte é gur leordhóthanach méid níos ísle chun muinín an mhargaidh a chaomhnú agus lena háirithiú go leanfaidh an institiúid nó an t-eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) d'fheidhmeanna criticiúla eacnamaíochta a sholáthar agus go mbeadh rochtain ar mhaoiniú gan gá le tacaíocht airgeadaisphoiblí urghnách seachas ranníocaíochtaí ó shocruithe maoinithe réitigh, i gcomhréir le agus Airteagal 44(5) agus (8) agus le hAirteagal 101 (2), tar éis chur chun feidhme na straitéise réitigh. Déanfar an méid sin a ardú más rud é, tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, go gcinneann an t-údarás réitigh gur gá leibhéal níos airde chun muinín mhargaidh leordhóthanach a chothú agus lena háirithiú go leanfaidh an institiúid nó eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b), i bpointe (c) agus i bpointe (d) d'Airteagal 1 (1) d'fheidhmeanna criticiúla eacnamaíochta a sholáthar agus go mbeadh rochtain aige nó aici ar mhaoiniú gan gá le tacaíocht airgeadais phoiblí urghnách seachas ranníocaíochtaí ó shocruithe maoinithe réitigh, i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(5) agus (8) agus le hAirteagal 101(2), ar feadh tréimhse iomchuí ama nach faide ná bliain amháin.

4.  
Ceapfaidh ÚBE dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla rialála ina sonrófar an mhodheolaíocht atá le húsáid ag na húdaráis réitigh chun an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE agus an ceanglas maoláin chomhcheangailte a mheas i dtaca le heintitis réitigh leibhéal comhdhlúite an ghrúpa i gcás nach mbíonn an grúpa réitigh faoi réir na gceanglas sin per se de bhun na Treorach réamhráite.

Cuirfidh ÚBE na dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla rialála sin faoi bhráid an Choimisiúin faoin ... [sé mhí tar éis dháta theacht i bhfeidhm na Treorach leasaithí seo].

Tarmligtear an chumhacht chuig an gCoimisiún na caighdeáin theicniúla rialála dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo a ghlacadh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 10 go hAirteagal 14 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010.

5.  

I dtaca le heintitis réitigh nach bhfuil faoi réir Airteagal 92a de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 agus atá mar chuid de ghrúpa réitigh ar mó ná EUR 100 billiún a shócmhainní iomlána, beidh leibhéal an cheanglais dá dtagraítear i mír 3 den Airteagal seo ar a laghad cothrom:

(a) 

le 13,5 % nuair a ríomhtar i gcomhréir le pointe (a) d'Airteagal 45(2); agus

(b) 

le 5 % nuair a ríomhtar i gcomhréir le pointe (b) d'Airteagal 45(2).

De mhaolú ar Airteagal 45b, na heintitis réitigh dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo, comhlíonfaidh siad leibhéal an cheanglais dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo atá cothrom le 13.5 % nuair a ríomhtar i gcomhréir le pointe (a) d'Airteagal 45(2) é agus cothrom le 5 % nuair a ríomhtar i gcomhréir le pointe (b) d'Airteagal 45(2) é ag úsáid cistí dílse, ionstraimí incháilithe fo-ordaithe, nó dliteanais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45b(3) den Treoir seo.

6.  
Ar dhul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, féadfaidh an t-údarás a chinneadh na ceanglais a leagtar síos i mír 5 den Airteagal seo a chur i bhfeidhm maidir le heintiteas réitigh nach bhfuil faoi réir Airteagal 92a de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 agus atá mar chuid de ghrúpa réitigh ar lú ná EUR 100 billiún a shócmhainní iomlána, agus a measann an t-údarás réitigh gur dócha go réasúnta, dar leis an údarás náisiúnta réitigh, riosca sistéamach a bheith ag gabháil leis i gcás a chliste.

Agus cinneadh dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo a dhéanamh, cuirfidh an t-údarás náisiúnta réitigh an méid seo san áireamh:

(a) 

leitheadúlacht taiscí agus neamhláithreacht ionstraimí fiachais sa tsamhail chistiúcháin;

(b) 

an méid a bhfuil rochtain ar na margaí caipitil le haghaidh dliteanais incháilithe teoranta;

(c) 

an méid a bhfuil an eintiteas réitigh spleách ar chaipiteal Ghnáthchothromas Leibhéal 1 chun freastal ar an riachtanas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e.

I gcás nach ndéantar cinneadh de bhun na chéad fhomhíre den mhír seo, beidh sin gan dochar d'aon chinneadh a dhéanfar faoi Airteagal 45b(5).

7.  

I gcás eintitis nach eintitis réitigh iontu féin iad, is éard a bheidh sa mhéid dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír de mhír 2 an méid seo a leanas:

(i) 

an méid caillteanas atá le hionsú i réiteach a chomhfhreagraíonn do chóimheas luamhánaithe an eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointe (d) d'Airteagal 92(1) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013; agus

(ii) 

méid athchaipitliúcháin lenar féidir leis an eintiteas an comhlíonadh lena cheanglas cóimheasa luamhánaithe dá dtagraítear i bpointe (d) d'Airteagal 92(1)(d) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 a athbhunú, tar éis fheidhmiú na cumhachta chun ionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 den Treoir seo nó le réiteach an ghrúpa réitigh.

Chun críocha phointe (a) d'Airteagal 45(2), sloinnfear an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) i dtéarmaí céatadán mar an méid a ríomhadh i gcomhréir le pointe (a) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo roinnte ar mhéid na neamhchosanta ar riosca iomlán.

Chun críocha phointe (b) d'Airteagal 45(2), sloinnfear an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1) i dtéarmaí céatadán mar an méid a ríomhadh i gcomhréir le pointe (b) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo, roinnte ar thomhas na neamhchosanta iomláine.

Agus an ceanglas aonair dá bhforáiltear i bpointe (b) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo á shocrú aige, cuirfidh an t-údarás réitigh san áireamh na ceanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagail 37(10), 44(5) agus 44(8).

Agus na méideanna athchaipitliúcháin dá dtagraítear sna fomhíreanna sin roimhe seo á socrú aige, déanfaidh an t-údarás réitigh an méid seo a leanas:

(a) 

leas a bhaint as na luachanna tuairiscithe is déanaí le haghaidh mhéid iomlán ábhartha na neamhchosanta ar riosca nó thomha iomlán na neamhchosanta, arna choigeartú le haghaidh aon athruithe a thagann as gníomhaíochtaí réitigh a leagtar amach sa phlean réitigh; agus

(b) 

tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, an méid atá comhfhreagrach leis an gceanglas atá ann faoi láthair dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 104a de Threoir 2013/36/AE a choigeartú síos nó suas chun an ceanglas a chinneadh atá le feidhm a bheith aige a maidir leis an eintiteas ábhartha tar éis fheidhmiú na cumhachta chun ionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 den Treoir seo nó tar éis réiteach an ghrúpa réitigh.

Beidh an t-údarás réitigh in ann an ceanglas dá bhforáiltear i bpointe (a) (ii) den chéad fhomhír den mhír seo a mhéadú méid iomchuí is gá chun a áirithiú, tar éis an chumhacht chun ionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 59 a fheidhmiú, go bhfuil an t-eintiteas in ann muinín mhargaidh leordhóthanach a chothú ar feadh tréimhse iomchuí ama nach faide ná bliain amháin.

I gcás ina mbeidh feidhm ag an séú fomhír den mhír seo, beidhméid an dá dtagraítrear san fhomhír ionann agus an ceanglas maoláin comhcheangailte atá le feidhm a bheith aige, tar éis an chumhacht dá dtagraítear Airteagal 59 a fheidhmiú, nó tar éis réiteach an eintitis réitigh, lúide an méid dá dtagraítear i bpointe (6) d'Airteagal 128 de Threoir 2013/36/ AE

Déanfar an méid dá dtagraítear sa séú fomhír den mhír seo a choigeartú aníos, más rud é, tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, go gcinneann an t-údarás réitigh gurb indéanta agus inchreidte é gur leordhóthanach méid níos ísle chun muinín an mhargaidh a áirithiú agus lena áirithiú go leanfaidh an institiúid nó an t-eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c ) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) d'fheidhmeanna criticiúla eacnamaíochta a sholáthar agus go mbeadh rochtain aige nó aici ar mhaoiniú gan gá le tacaíocht airgeadais phoiblí urghnách seachas ranníocaíochtaí ó shocruithe maoinithe réitigh, i gcomhréir agus le míreanna 5 agus 8 d'Airteagal 44 agus le hAirteagal 101(2), tar éis fheidhmiú na cumhachta dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 59 nó tar éis réiteach an ghrúpa réitigh. Déanfar an méid sin a choigeartú suas más rud é, tar éis dó dul i gcomhairle leis an údarás inniúil, go gcinneann an Bord gur gá méid níos airde chun muinín mhargaidh leordhóthanach a chothú agus lena áirithiú go leanfaidh an institiúid nó an t-eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c ) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) d'fheidhmeanna criticiúla eacnamaíochta a sholáthar agus go mbeadh rochtain aige nó aici ar mhaoiniú gan gá le tacaíocht airgeadais phoiblí urghnách seachas ranníocaíochtaí ó shocruithe maoinithe réitigh, i gcomhréir lemíreanna 5 agus 8 d'Airteagal 44(5) agus (8) agus le hAirteagal 101(2) ar feadh tréimhse iomchuí ama nach faide ná bliain amháin.

5.  

I gcás ina gcomhlíontar na coinníollacha a leagtar síos i bpointí (a) agus (b) de mhír 3, féadfaidh údarás réitigh na fochuideachta a cheadú dá dtagraítear in Airteagal(1) go sásófar an ceanglas go hiomlán nó go páirteach trí ráthaíocht a fháil ón eintiteas réitigh a chomhlíonann na coinníollacha seo a leanas:

(a) 

cuirtear an ráthaíocht ar fáil maidir leis an méid atá coibhéiseach le méid an cheanglais a dtéann sé ina ionad;

tuairim an údaráis réitigh ar leibhéal grúpa, i gcás nach ionann é sin agus tuairim údaráis réitigh an eintitis réitigh.

Más rud é, ag deireadh na tréimhse ceithre mhí, gur chuir aon cheann de na húdaráis an t-ábhar a chur faoi bhráid ÚBE de réir Airteagal 19 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010, cuirfidh údarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh a chinneadh siar agus fanfaidh sé ar aon chinneadh a ghlacfaidh ÚBE de réir Airteagal 19(3) den Rialachán sin maidir lena chinneadh, agus glacfaidh sé a chinneadh i gcomhréir le cinneadh ÚBE.

Cuirfidh cinneadh ÚBE pointí (a) agus (b) den chéad fhomhír san áireamh.

Measfar gurb é an tréimhse ceithre mhí an tréimhse idir-réitigh de réir bhrí Rialachán (AE) Uimh 1093/2010. Déanfaidh an ÚBE an cinneadh laistigh d'aon mhí amháin.

Ní chuirfear an t-ábhar ar aghaidh chuig ÚBE má tá an tréimhse ceithre mhí thart nó má thángthas ar chinneadh comhpháirteach.

In éagmais chinneadh ó ÚBE laistigh d'aon mhí amháin, beidh feidhm ag cinneadh údarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh.

5.  

Mura dtagtar ar chinneadh comhpháirteach laistigh de cheithre mhí de thoradh easaontú maidir le leibhéal an cheanglais dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45f a bheidh le cur i bhfeidhm ar aon eintiteas de chuid grúpa réitigh ar bhonn aonair, déanfaidh údaráis réitigh an eintitis sin faoi seach an cinneadh i gcás ina gcomhlíonfar na coinníollacha seo a leanas go léir:

(a) 

tá na tuairimí agus na forchoimeádais a chuir údarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh i scríbhinn curtha san áireamh go hiomchuí, agus

(b) 

tá tuairimí agus ábhair amhrais an údaráis réitigh ar leibhéal grúpa, a cuireadh i scríbhinn, curtha san áireamh go hiomchuí i gcás nárbh é údarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh an t-údarás sin;

I gcás, ag deireadh na tréimhse ceithre mhí, ina bhfuil údarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh nó an t-údarás réitigh ar leibhéal grúpa tar éis an t-ábhar a chur faoi bhráid ÚBE i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 19 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010, cuirfidh na húdaráis réitigh atá freagrach as na fochuideachtaí ar bhonn aonair a gcinntí siar agus fanfaidh siad ar aon chinneadh a fhéadfaidh ÚBE a dhéanamh de réir Airteagal 19(3) den Rialachán sin, agus déanfaidh siad a gcinneadh i gcomhréir le cinneadh ÚBE. Cuirfidh cinneadh ÚBE pointí (a) agus (b) den chéad fhomhír san áireamh.

Measfar gurb é an tréimhse ceithre mhí an tréimhse idir-réitigh de réir bhrí Rialachán (AE) Uimh 1093/2010. Déanfaidh an ÚBE an cinneadh laistigh d'aon mhí amháin.

Ní chuirfear an t-ábhar ar aghaidh chuig ÚBE má tá an tréimhse ceithre mhí thart nó má thángthas ar chinneadh comhpháirteach.

Ní dhéanfaidh údarás réitigh an eintitis réitigh ná údarás réitigh leibhéal an ghrúpa an scéal a chur faoi bhráid ÚBE le hidirghabháil cheangailteach a dhéanamh nuair atá an leibhéal a shocraigh údarás réitigh na fochuideachta:

(a) 

faoi bhun 2 % de mhéid iomlán méid iomlán na neamhchosanta riosca arna ríomh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 92(3) de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013 den cheanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45e; agus

(b) 

i gcomhréir go hiomlán le hAirteagal 45c(7).

Cheal ar chinneadh ó ÚBE laistigh de mhí amháin, beidh feidhm ag cinntí údarás réitigh na bhfochuideachtaí.

Déanfar an cinneadh comhpháirteach agus aon chinntí a dhéanfar mura ndéantar cinneadh comhpháirteach a athbhreithniú agus a nuashonrú ar bhonn rialta i gcás inarb ábhartha.

6.  

Mura dtagtar ar chinneadh comhpháirteach laistigh de cheithre mhí de thoradh easaontú maidir le leibhéal cheanglas an ghrúpa réitigh comhdhlúite agus leibhéal an cheanglais a bheidh le cur ar eintitis an ghrúpa réitigh ar bhonn aonair, beidh feidhm ag an méid seo a leanas:

(a) 

déanfar cinneadh maidir le leibhéal an cheanglais a bheidh le cur ar fhochuideachtaí an ghrúpa réitigh ar bhonn aonair i gcomhréir le mír 5;

(b) 

déanfar cinneadh maidir le leibhéal cheanglas an ghrúpa réitigh chomhdhlúite i gcomhréir le mír 4.

7.  
Beidh an cinneadh comhpháirteach dá dtagraítear i mír 1 agus aon chinntí a dhéanfaidh na húdaráis réitigh dá dtagraítear i míreanna 4, 5 agus 6 mura ndéantar cinneadh comhpháirteach, beidh siad sin ina gceangal ar na húdaráis réitigh lena mbaineann.

Déanfar an cinneadh comhpháirteach agus aon chinntí a dhéanfar mura ndéantar cinneadh comhpháirteach a athbhreithniú agus a nuashonrú ar bhonn rialta i gcás inarb ábhartha.

8.  
Éileoidh údaráis réitigh, i gcomhar leis na húdaráis inniúla, agus fíoróidh siad go gcomhlíonfaidh eintitis an ceanglas dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 45(1), agus déanfaidh siad aon chinneadh de bhun an Airteagail seo i gcomhthráth le forbairt agus cothabháil na bpleananna réitigh.

Socruithe idirthréimhseacha agus iar-réitigh

1.  
De mhaolú ar Airteagal 45(1), cinnfidh na húdaráis réitigh idirthréimhsí iomchuí d'institiúid nó d'eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) na ceanglais in Airteagal 45e agus in Airteagal 45f a chomhlíonadh nó ceanglais atá de thoradh ar chur i bhfeidhm Airteagal 45b(4), Airteagal 45b(5) ó Airteagal 45b(7), a chomhlíonadh, mar is iomchuí. Is é an spriocdháta do na hinstitiúidí agus na heintitis na ceanglais atá in Airteagal 45e nó in Airteagal 45f a chomhlíonadh, nó ceanglais de bharr chur i bhfeidhm Airteagal 45b(4), Airteagal 45b(5) nó Airteagal 45b(7) a chomhlíonadh an 1 Eanáir 2024.

Cinnfidh an t-údarás réitigh spriocleibhéal idirmheánach do na ceanglais atá in Airteagail 45e nó 45f, nó do cheanglas atá de thoradh ar chur i bhfeidhm Airteagal 45b(4), Airteagal 45b(5) nó Airteagal 45b(7) mar is iomchuí, nach mór d'institiúidí nó d'eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) a chomhlíonadh ar an 1 Eanáir 2022. Is ceart, de ghnáth, go n-áiritheofaí leis na leibhéil sprice idirmheánaí méadú líneach ar na cistí dílse agus ar na dliteanais incháilithe ionsar an cheanglas.

Féadfaidh an t-údarás réitigh idirthréimhse a leagan síos a dtagann deireadh léi tar éis 1 Eanáir 2024 i gcás ina mbeidh údar cuí leis agus nuair is iomchuí ar bhonn na gcritéar dá dtagraítear i mír 7, agus an méid seo a leanas á chur san áireamh:

5.  
De mhaolú ar Airteagal 45(1), cinnfidh na húdaráis réitigh idirthréimhse iomchuí chun na ceanglais atá in Airteagal 45e nó in Airteagal 45f a chomhlíonadh laistigh de, nó ceanglas atá de thoradh ar chur i bhfeidhm Airteagal 45b(4), (5) nó (7) a chomhlíonadh laistigh de, de réir mar is iomchuí, d'institiúidí nó d'eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) a ndearnadh uirlisí réitigh, nó an chumhacht díluachála nó comhshó dá dtagraítear in Airteagal 59 a chur i bhfeidhm maidir leo.

Subsection 3

Implementation of the bail-in tool

Article 46

Assessment of amount of bail-in

1.  

Member States shall ensure that, when applying the bail-in tool, resolution authorities assess on the basis of a valuation that complies with Article 36 the aggregate of:

(a) 

where relevant, the amount by which ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ must be written down in order to ensure that the net asset value of the institution under resolution is equal to zero; and

(b) 

where relevant, the amount by which ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ must be converted into shares or other types of capital instruments in order to restore the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of either:

(i) 

the institution under resolution; or

(ii) 

the bridge institution.

2.  
The assessment referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article shall establish the amount by which ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ need to be written down or converted in order to restore the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of the institution under resolution or where applicable establish the ratio of the bridge institution taking into account any contribution of capital by the resolution financing arrangement pursuant to point (d) of Article 101(1) of this Directive, and to sustain sufficient market confidence in the institution under resolution or the bridge institution and enable it to continue to meet, for at least one year, the conditions for authorisation and to continue to carry out the activities for which it is authorised under Directive 2013/36/EU or Directive 2014/65/EU.

Where resolution authorities intend to use the asset separation tool referred to in Article 42, the amount by which ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ need to be reduced shall take into account a prudent estimate of the capital needs of the asset management vehicle as appropriate.

3.  
Where capital has been written down in accordance with Articles 59 to 62 and bail-in has been applied pursuant to Article 43(2) and the level of write-down based on the preliminary valuation according to Article 36 is found to exceed requirements when assessed against the definitive valuation according to Article 36(10), a write-up mechanism may be applied to reimburse creditors and then shareholders to the extent necessary.
4.  
Resolution authorities shall establish and maintain arrangements to ensure that the assessment and valuation is based on information about the assets and liabilities of the institution under resolution that is as up to date and comprehensive as is reasonably possible.

Article 47

Treatment of shareholders in bail-in or write down or conversion of capital instruments

1.  

Member States shall ensure that, when applying the bail-in tool in Article 43(2) or the write down or conversion of capital instruments in Article 59, resolution authorities take in respect of shareholders and holders of other instruments of ownership one or both of the following actions:

(a) 

cancel existing shares or other instruments of ownership or transfer them to bailed-in creditors;

(b) 

provided that, in accordance to the valuation carried out under Article 36, the institution under resolution has a positive net value, dilute existing shareholders and holders of other instruments of ownership as a result of the conversion into shares or other instruments of ownership of:

(i) 

relevant capital instruments issued by the institution pursuant to the power referred to in Article 59(2); or

(ii) 

►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ issued by the institution under resolution pursuant to the power referred to in point (f) of Article 63(1).

With regard to point (b) of the first subparagraph, the conversion shall be conducted at a rate of conversion that severely dilutes existing holdings of shares or other instruments of ownership.

2.  

The actions referred to in paragraph 1 shall also be taken in respect of shareholders and holders of other instruments of ownership where the shares or other instruments of ownership in question were issued or conferred in the following circumstances:

(a) 

pursuant to conversion of debt instruments to shares or other instruments of ownership in accordance with contractual terms of the original debt instruments on the occurrence of an event that preceded or occurred at the same time as the assessment by the resolution authority that the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) met the conditions for resolution;

(b) 

pursuant to the conversion of relevant capital instruments to Common Equity Tier 1 instruments pursuant to Article 60.

3.  

When considering which action to take in accordance with paragraph 1, resolution authorities shall have regard to:

(a) 

the valuation carried out in accordance with Article 36;

(b) 

the amount by which the resolution authority has assessed that Common Equity Tier 1 items must be reduced and relevant capital instruments must be written down or converted pursuant to Article 60(1); and

(c) 

the aggregate amount assessed by the resolution authority pursuant to Article 46.

4.

5.  
If the competent authority of that institution has not completed the assessment required under paragraph 4 on the date of application of the bail-in tool or the conversion of capital instruments, Article 38(9) shall apply to any acquisition of or increase in a qualifying holding by an acquirer resulting from the application of the bail-in tool or the conversion of capital instruments.
6.  
EBA shall, by 3 July 2016, issue guidelines, in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, on the circumstances in which each of the actions referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article would be appropriate, having regard to the factors specified in paragraph 3 of this Article.

Article 48

(a) 

Common Equity Tier 1 items are reduced in accordance with point (a) of Article 60(1);

(b) 

if, and only if, the total reduction pursuant to point (a) is less than the sum of the amounts referred to in points (b) and (c) of Article 47(3), authorities reduce the principal amount of Additional Tier 1 instruments to the extent required and to the extent of their capacity;

(c) 

if, and only if, the total reduction pursuant to points (a) and (b) is less than the sum of the amounts referred to in points (b) and (c) of Article 47(3), authorities reduce the principal amount of Tier 2 instruments to the extent required and to the extent of their capacity;

2.  
When applying the write down or conversion powers, resolution authorities shall allocate the losses represented by the sum of the amounts referred to in points (b) and (c) of Article 47(3) equally between shares or other instruments of ownership and ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ of the same rank by reducing the principal amount of, or outstanding amount payable in respect of, those shares or other instruments of ownership and ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ to the same extent pro rata to their value except where a different allocation of losses amongst liabilities of the same rank is allowed in the circumstances specified in Article 44(3).

This paragraph shall not prevent liabilities which have been excluded from bail-in in accordance with Article 44(2) and (3) from receiving more favourable treatment than ►M3  dliteanais in-fhortharrthála ◄ which are of the same rank in normal insolvency proceedings.

3.  

Before applying the write down or conversion referred to in point (e) of paragraph 1, resolution authorities shall convert or reduce the principal amount on instruments referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of paragraph 1 when those instruments contain the following terms and have not already been converted:

(a) 

terms that provide for the principal amount of the instrument to be reduced on the occurrence of any event that refers to the financial situation, solvency or levels of own funds of the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1);

(b) 

terms that provide for the conversion of the instruments to shares or other instruments of ownership on the occurrence of any such event.

4.  
Where the principal amount of an instrument has been reduced, but not to zero, in accordance with terms of the kind referred to in point (a) of paragraph 3 before the application of the bail-in pursuant to paragraph 1, resolution authorities shall apply the write-down and conversion powers to the residual amount of that principal in accordance with paragraph 1.
5.  
When deciding on whether liabilities are to be written down or converted into equity, resolution authorities shall not convert one class of liabilities, while a class of liabilities that is subordinated to that class remains substantially unconverted into equity or not written down, unless otherwise permitted under Article 44(2) and (3).
6.  
For the purposes of this Article, EBA shall, by 3 January 2016, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 for any interpretation relating to the interrelationship between the provisions of this Directive and those of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and Directive 2013/36/EU.

Article 49

Derivatives

1.  
Member States shall ensure that this Article is complied with when resolution authorities apply the write-down and conversion powers to liabilities arising from derivatives.
2.  
Resolution authorities shall exercise the write-down and conversion powers in relation to a liability arising from a derivative only upon or after closing-out the derivatives. Upon entry into resolution, resolution authorities shall be empowered to terminate and close out any derivative contract for that purpose.

Where a derivative liability has been excluded from the application of the bail-in tool under Article 44(3), resolution authorities shall not be obliged to terminate or close out the derivative contract.

3.  
Where derivative transactions are subject to a netting agreement, the resolution authority or an independent valuer shall determine as part of the valuation under Article 36 the liability arising from those transactions on a net basis in accordance with the terms of the agreement.
4.  

Resolution authorities shall determine the value of liabilities arising from derivatives in accordance with the following:

(a) 

appropriate methodologies for determining the value of classes of derivatives, including transactions that are subject to netting agreements;

(b) 

principles for establishing the relevant point in time at which the value of a derivative position should be established; and

(c) 

appropriate methodologies for comparing the destruction in value that would arise from the close out and bail-in of derivatives with the amount of losses that would be borne by derivatives in a bail-in.

5.  
EBA, after consulting the European Supervisory Authority (European Securities and Markets Authority) (‘ESMA’), established by Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010, shall develop draft regulatory technical standards specifying methodologies and the principles referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph 4 on the valuation of liabilities arising from derivatives.

In relation to derivative transactions that are subject to a netting agreement, EBA shall take into account the methodology for close-out set out in the netting agreement.

EBA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by 3 January 2016.

Power is delegated to the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

Article 50

Rate of conversion of debt to equity

1.  
Member States shall ensure that, when resolution authorities exercise the powers specified in Article 59(3) and point (f) of Article 63(1), they may apply a different conversion rate to different classes of capital instruments and liabilities in accordance with one or both of the principles referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Article.
2.  
The conversion rate shall represent appropriate compensation to the affected creditor for any loss incurred by virtue of the exercise of the write down and conversion powers.
3.  
When different conversion rates are applied according to paragraph 1, the conversion rate applicable to liabilities that are considered to be senior under applicable insolvency law shall be higher than the conversion rate applicable to subordinated liabilities.
4.  
EBA shall, by 3 January 2016, issue guidelines in accordance with Article 16 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 on the setting of conversion rates.

Those guidelines shall indicate, in particular, how affected creditors may be appropriately compensated by means of the conversion rate, and the relative conversion rates that might be appropriate to reflect the priority of senior liabilities under applicable insolvency law.

Article 51

Assumptions shall be compared with appropriate sector-wide benchmarks.

5.  

A business reorganisation plan shall include at least the following elements:

The assessment shall be completed in agreement with the relevant competent authority.

If the resolution authority and the competent authority are satisfied that the plan would achieve that objective, the resolution authority shall approve the plan.

8.  
If the resolution authority is not satisfied that the plan would achieve the objective referred to in paragraph 7, the resolution authority, in agreement with the competent authority, shall notify the management body or the person or persons appointed in accordance with Article 72(1) of its concerns and require the amendment of the plan in a way that addresses those concerns.
9.  
Within two weeks from the date of receipt of the notification referred to in paragraph 8, the management body or the person or persons appointed in accordance with Article 72(1) shall submit an amended plan to the resolution authority for approval. The resolution authority shall assess the amended plan, and shall notify the management body or the person or persons appointed in accordance with Article 72(1) within one week whether it is satisfied that the plan, as amended, addresses the concerns notified or whether further amendment is required.
10.

Article 53

Effect of bail-in

1.  
Member States shall ensure that where a resolution authority exercises a power referred to in Article 59(2) and in points (e) to (i) of Article 63(1), the reduction of principal or outstanding amount due, conversion or cancellation takes effect and is immediately binding on the institution under resolution and affected creditors and shareholders.
2.  

Member States shall ensure that the resolution authority shall have the power to complete or require the completion of all the administrative and procedural tasks necessary to give effect to the exercise of a power referred to in Article 59(2) and in points (e) to (i) of Article 63(1), including:

(a) 

the amendment of all relevant registers;

3.  
Where a resolution authority reduces to zero the principal amount of, or outstanding amount payable in respect of, a liability by means of the power referred to in point (e) of Article 63(1), that liability and any obligations or claims arising in relation to it that are not accrued at the time when the power is exercised shall be treated as discharged for all purposes, and shall not be provable in any subsequent proceedings in relation to the institution under resolution or any successor entity in any subsequent winding up.

Article 54

Removal of procedural impediments to bail-in

1.  
Without prejudice to point (i) of Article 63(1), Member States shall, where applicable, require institutions and entities referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of Article 1(1) to maintain at all times a sufficient amount of authorised share capital or of other Common Equity Tier 1 instruments, so that, in the event that the resolution authority exercises the powers referred to in points (e) and (f) of Article 63(1) in relation to an institution or an entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or any of its subsidiaries, the institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) is not prevented from issuing sufficient new shares or other instruments of ownership to ensure that the conversion of liabilities into shares or other instruments of ownership could be carried out effectively.
2.  
Resolution authorities shall assess whether it is appropriate to impose the requirement laid down in paragraph 1 in the case of a particular institution or entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) in the context of the development and maintenance of the resolution plan for that institution or group, having regard, in particular, to the resolution actions contemplated in that plan. If the resolution plan provides for the possible application of the bail-in tool, authorities shall verify that the authorised share capital or other Common Equity Tier 1 instruments is sufficient to cover the sum of the amounts referred to in points (b) and (c) of Article 47(3).
3.

Airteagal 55

Fortharrtháil chonarthach a aithint

1.  

Cuirfidh na Ballstáit de cheanglas ar institiúidí agus eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) téarma conarthach a chur san áireamh trína n-aithneoidh an creidiúnaí nó an páirtí sa chomhaontú nó san ionstraim lena gcruthaítear an dliteanas go bhféadfaidh an dliteanas sin a bheith faoi réir na gcumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó agus go dtoileoidh sé a bheith faoi réir aon laghdú ar an bpríomhshuim nó aon mhéid gan íoc atá dlite, aon chomhshó nó cealú a bhfuil tionchar ag feidhmiú na gcumhachtaí sin orthu ag údarás réitigh, ar choinníoll go gcomhlíonann an dliteanas sin na coinníollacha seo uile a leanas:

(a) 

ní eiseofar an dliteanas faoi Airteagal 44(2);

(b) 

ní taisce í an dliteanas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) d'Airteagal 108;

(c) 

rialófar an dliteanas faoi dhlí tríú tír;

(d) 

eiseofar an dliteanas nó téitear ina bhun tar éis an dáta a chuireann Ballstát na forálacha i bhfeidhm arna nglacadh chun an Roinn sin a thrasuí.

Féadfaidh údaráis réitigh a chinneadh nach mbeidh feidhm ag an oibleagáid sa chéad fhomhír de mhír 1 i ndáil le hinstitiúidí ná eintitis i gcás ina bhfuil an méid ionsúcháin caillteanais, mar a shainmhínítear faoi phointe (a) d'Airteagal 45c(2), cothrom leis an gceanglas faoi Airteagal 45(1) ina leith, ar choinníoll nach n-áirítear ionsair an cheanglais sin dliteanais a chomhlíonann na coinníollacha dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) go pointe (d) den chéad fhomhír agus ar dliteanais iad nach gcuimsíonn an téarma conarthach dá dtagraítear san fhomhír sin.

Ní bheidh feidhm ag an gcéad fhomhír i gcás ina gcinneann údarás réitigh Ballstáit gur féidir le húdarás réitigh Ballstáit na dliteanais nó na hionstraimí dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír a bheith faoi réir dhíluacháil nó chomhshó de bhun dlí tríú tír nó de bhun comhaontú ceangailteach arna thabhairt i gcrích leis an tríú tír sin.

2.  
Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit, i gcás ina gcineann institiúid nó eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) go bhfuil sé dofheidhmithe, ó thaobh an dlí nó eile de, téarma a chur isteach i bhforálacha conarthacha lena rialaítear dliteanas ábhartha ar téarma é a cheanglaítear i gcomhréir le mír 1, tabharfaidh institiúid nó eintiteas den sórt sin fógra faoina gcinneadh don údarás réitigh, ina n-áireofar ainmniú aicme an dliteanais agus an réasúnú faoi deara an chinnidh sin. Soláthróidh an institiúid nó an t-eintiteas an fhaisnéis go léir don údarás réitigh a fhéadfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a iarraidh laistigh de thréimhse réasúnta tar éis an fógra a fháil, d'fhonn éifeacht fógra den sórt sin ar inréiteacht na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis sin a mheasúnú ag an eintiteas réitigh.

Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit, i gcás fógra a fháil faoin gcéad fhomhír den mhír seo, go gcuirfear ar fionraí go huathoibríoch tráth a fhaigheann an t-údarás réitigh an fógra an oibleagáid téarma a áireamh a cheanglaítear sna forálacha conarthacha i gcomhréir le mír 1.

I gcás ina gcinneann an t-údarás réitigh nach bhfuil sé dofheidhmithe, ó thaobh an dlí nó eile de, téarma a chur isteach i bhforálacha conarthacha a cheanglaítear i gcomhréir le mír 1, ag cur san áireamh an gá atá le hinréiteacht na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis a áirithiú, ceanglófar, laistigh de thréimhse réasúnta tar éis an fógra a fháil de bhun na chéad fhomhíre, go n-áiritheofar téarma conarthach den sórt sin. Anuas air sin, féadfaidh an t-údarás réitigh a cheangal ar an institiúid nó ar an eintiteas a gcuid cleachtas maidir le cur i bhfeidhm na díolúine ó aitheantas conarthach a thabhairt don fhortharrtháil.

Ní áireofar sna dliteanais dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo ionstraimí Breise Leibhéal 1, ionstraimí Leibhéal 2, na hionstraimí fiachais dá dtagraítear i bpointe (48)(ii) d'Airteagal 2(1), i gcás inar dliteanais neamhurraithe iad. Ina theannta sin, na dliteanais dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo, beidh rangú sinsearachta acu ar na dliteanais dá dtagraítear i bpointí (a), (b) agus (c) d'Airteagal 108(2) agus in Airteagal 108(3).

I gcás ina gcinnfidh an t-údarás réitigh, i gcomhthéacs an mheasúnaithe ar inréititheacht institiúide nó eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 15 agus le hAirteagal 16, nó tráth ar bith eile, gurb amhlaidh laistigh d'aicme dliteanas lena gcuimsítear dliteanais incháilithe, gur mó líon na ndliteanas sin, i gcomhréir leis an gcéad fhomhír den mhír seo, nach gcuimsítear leo an téarma conarthach dá dtagraítear i mír 1, mar aon leis na dliteanais atá eisiata ó chur i bhfeidhm na huirlise fortharrthála i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(2) nó ar dócha go n-eiseofar iad i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 44(3), gur mó é ná 10 % den aicme sin, déanfaidh sé measúnú láithreach ar thionchar an fhíorais áirithe sin ar inréititheacht na hinstitiúide nó an eintitis sin, lena n-áirítear an tionchar ar an inréititheacht a eascraíonn as an riosca a bheith ann nuair a sháraítear coimircí an chreidiúnaithe dá bhforáiltear in Airteagal 73 agus na cumhacht díluachála agus comhshó á gcur i bhfeidhm acu.

I gcás ina gcinnfidh an t-údarás réitigh, ar bhonn an mheasúnaithe dá dtagraítear sa chúigiú fomhír den mhír seo, i dtaobh na dliteanas, nach gcuimsítear leo, i gcomhréir leis an gcéad fhomhír, an téarma conarthach dá dtagraítear i mír 1, go gcruthaíonn siad bac substaintiúil ar inréititheacht, cuirfidh sé i bhfeidhm na cumhachtaí dá bhforáiltear in Airteagal 17 mar is iomchuí chun fáil réidh leis an mbac sin ar an inréititheacht.

I gcás ina mainníonn an institiúid nó an t-eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b),(c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) an téarma a cheanglaítear faoi mhír 1 den Airteagal seo a áirithint sna forálacha conarthacha i leith dliteanas nó, i gcás nach bhfuil feidhm ag an gceangal sin i gcomhréir leis an mír seo, ní chuirfear na dliteanais sin san áireamh i gcomhair an íoscheanglais do chistí dílse ná do dhliteanais incháilithe.

3.  
Áiritheoidh na Ballstáit go bhféadfaidh na húdaráis réitigh ceanglas a chur ar institiúidí agus eintitis dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) agus (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) tuairim dhlíthiúil a chur ar fáil do na húdaráis maidir le hinfhorghníomhaíocht dhlíthiúil agus éifeachtacht an téarma chonarthaigh dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo.
4.  
I gcás nch ndéanann institiúid nó eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) téarma conarthach a chur sna forálacha conarthacha lena rialaítear dliteanas ábhartha a cheanglaítear i gcomhréir le mír 1 den Airteagal seo, ní chuirfidh sé sin cosc ar an údarás réitigh a chumhachtaí díluachála agus comhshó a fheidhmiú i dtaca leis an dliteanas sin.
5.  
Forbróidh ÚBE dréacht-chaighdeáin theicniúla rialála chun an liosta dliteanas lena mbaineann an t-eisiamh i mír 1agus inneachar an téarma chonarthaigh dá gceanglaítear sa mhír sin a chinneadh a thuilleadh, agus samhlacha gnó difriúla institiúidí á gcur san áireamh.

Cuirfidh ÚBE na dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla rialála sin faoi bhráid an Choimisiúin faoin 3 Iúil 2015.

Tarmligtear an chumhacht chuig an gCoimisiún na caighdeáin theicniúla rialála dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír a ghlacadh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 10 go hAirteagal 14 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010.

6.  

Forbróidh ÚBE dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla rialála chun na nithe seo a leanas a shonrú tuilleadh:

(a) 

na coinníollacha ina mbeadh sé dofheidhmithe, ó thaobh an dlí nó eile de, d'institiúid nó d'eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) an téarma conarthach dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo a áireamh i gcatagóirí áirithe dliteanas

(b) 

na coinníollacha don údarás réitigh a cheangal go n-áireofar an téarma conarthach de bhun an tríú fomhír de mhír 2.

(c) 

tréimhse réasúnta don údarás réitigh a cheangal go n-áireofar téarma conarthach de bhun an tríú fomhír de mhír 2.

Cuirfidh ÚBE na dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla rialála sin faoi bhráid an Choimisiúin faoin 28 Meitheamh 2020.

Tarmligtear an chumhacht chuig an gCoimisiún na caighdeáin theicniúla rialála dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír a ghlacadh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 10 go hAirteagal 14 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010.

7.  
Sonróidh an t-údarás réitigh, má mheasann sé gur gá, catagóirí na ndliteanas ar féidir le hinstitiúid nó eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointí (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) a chinneadh ina leith go bhfuil sé dofheidhmithe, ó thaobh an dlí nó eile de, an téarma conarthach dá dtagraítear i mír 1 den Airteagal seo, bunaithe ar na coinníollacha a shonraítear tuilleadh de bharr mír 6 a chur i bhfeidhm.
8.  
Forbróidh ÚBE dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla cur chun feidhme chun formáidí agus teimpléid aonfhoirmeacha a shonrú le haghaidh sainaithint agus traschur faisnéise ag údaráis réitigh, i gcomhar leis na húdaráis inniúla, chuig ÚBE chun críocha mhír 1.

Cuirfidh ÚBE na dréachtchaighdeáin theicniúla cur chun feidhme sin faoi bhráid an Choimisiúin faoin 28 Meitheamh 2020.

Tugtar an chumhacht don Choimisiún na caighdeáin theicniúla cur chun feidhme dá dtagraítear sa chéad fhomhír den mhír seo a ghlacadh i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 15 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 1093/2010.

Ionstraimí caipitil agus dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó

▼B

Article 59

▼M3

An ceanglas ionstraimí caipitil agus dliteanas incháilithe ábhartha a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó

1.  

Féadtar na cumhachtaí ionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó a fheidhmiú:

(a) 

beag beann ar ghníomhaíocht réitigh; nó

(b) 

i gcomhcheangal le gníomhaíocht réitigh, i gcás ina gcomhlíonfar na coinníollacha maidir le réiteach a shonraítear in Airteagal 32, 32a nó in Airteagal 33.

I gcás inar cheannaigh an t-eintiteas réitigh, go hindíreach trí eintitis eile sa ghrúpa réitigh céanna, ionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus dliteanais incháilithe ábhartha, feidhmeofar an chumhacht chun díluacháil nó comhshó a dhéanamh ar na hionstraimí caipitil ábhartha sin agus na dliteanais incháilithe ábhartha sin i dteannta fheidhmiú na cumhachta céanna ar leibhéal mháthairghnóthas an eintitis lena mbaineann nó ar leibhéal máthairghnóthas eile nach eintitis réitigh iad ionas go gcuirtear na caillteanais ar aghaidh chuig an eintiteas réitigh agus ionas go ndéanann an t-eintiteas réitigh an t-eintiteas lena mbaineann a athchaipitliú.

Tar éis fheidhmiú na cumhachta chun dliteanais incháilithe ábhartha agus dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó beag beann ar ghníomhaíocht réitigh, déanfar an luacháil dá bhforáiltear in Airteagal 74 agus beidh feidhm ag Airteagal 75.

▼M3

1a.  
Ní fhéadtar na cumhachtaí dliteanais incháilithe a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó beag beann ar ghníomhaíocht réitigh a fheidhmiú ach amháin maidir le dliteanais incháilithe a chomhlíonann na coinníollacha dá dtagraítear i bpointe (a) d'Airteagal 45 f(2) den Treoir seo, cé is moite den choinníoll maidir le haibíocht dliteanas atá fágtha mar a leagtar amach in Airteagal 72(c)1 de Rialachán (AE) Uimh. 575/2013.

I gcás ina bhfeidhmítear an chumhacht sin, áiritheoidh na Ballstáit gur i gcomhréir leis an bprionsabal dá dtagraítear i bpointe (g) d'Airteagal 34(1) a dhéanfar an díluacháil nó an comhshó.

1b.  
I gcás ina ndéantar gníomhaíocht réitigh maidir le heintiteas réitigh nó, i gcúinsí eisceachtúla de dhiallas ón bplean réitigh, maidir le heintiteas nach eintiteas réitigh é, an méid a dhéanfar a laghdú, a dhíluacháil nó a chomhshó i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 60(1) ar leibhéal an eintitis sin, cuirfear an méid sin san áireamh i dtaca leis na tairseacha a leagtar síos in Airteagal 37(10) agus i bpointe (a) d'Airteagal 44(8) is infheidhme maidir leis an eintiteas lena mbaineann.

▼B

2.  
Member States shall ensure that the resolution authorities have the power to write down or convert relevant ►M3  ionstraimí caipitil, agus dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a ◄ into shares or other instruments of ownership of institutions and entities referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of Article 1(1).

▼M3

3.  

Ceanglóidh na Ballstáit ar údaráis réitigh an chumhacht díluachála nó comhshó a fheidhmiú, i gcomhréir le hAirteagal 60 agus gan mhoill, maidir le hionstraimí caipitil ábhartha, agus maidir le dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a arna n-eisiúint ag institiúid nó ag eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) nuair a bheidh feidhm ag ceann amháin nó níos mó de na himthosca seo a leanas:

(a) 

i gcás inar cinneadh gur comhlíonadh na coinníollacha maidir le réiteach a shonraítear in Airteagal 32, 32a nó in Airteagal 33, sula nglacfar aon ghníomhaíocht réitigh;

(b) 

i gcás ina gcinnfidh an t-údarás iomchuí, mura ndéantar an chumhacht sin a fheidhmiú i ndáil leis na hionstraimí caipitil ábhartha agus i ndáil leis na dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a, nach mbeidh an institiúid nó an t-eintiteas dá dtagraítear i bpointe (b), (c) nó (d) d'Airteagal 1(1) inmharthana a thuilleadh;

▼B

(c) 

in the case of relevant capital instruments issued by a subsidiary and where those capital instruments are recognised for the purposes of meeting own funds requirements on an individual and on a consolidated basis, the appropriate authority of the Member State of the consolidating supervisor and the appropriate authority of the Member State of the subsidiary make a joint determination taking the form of a joint decision in accordance with Article 92(3) and (4) that unless the write down or conversion power is exercised in relation to those instruments, the group will no longer be viable;

(d) 

in the case of relevant capital instruments issued at the level of the parent undertaking and where those capital instruments are recognised for the purposes of meeting own funds requirements on an individual basis at the level of the parent undertaking or on a consolidated basis, and the appropriate authority of the Member State of the consolidating supervisor makes a determination that unless the write down or conversion power is exercised in relation to those instruments, the group will no longer be viable;

(e) 

extraordinary public financial support is required by the institution or the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) except in any of the circumstances set out in point (d)(iii) of Article 32(4).

4.  

For the purposes of paragraph 3, an institution or an entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or a group shall be deemed to be no longer viable only if both of the following conditions are met:

(a) 

the institution or the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or the group is failing or likely to fail;

(b) 

having regard to timing and other relevant circumstances, there is no reasonable prospect that any action, including alternative private sector measures or supervisory action (including early intervention measures), other than the write down or conversion of ►M3  ionstraimí caipitil, nó dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a ◄ , independently or in combination with a resolution action, would prevent the failure of the institution or the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or the group within a reasonable timeframe.

5.  
For the purposes of point (a) of paragraph 4 of this Article, an institution or an entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) shall be deemed to be failing or likely to fail where one or more of the circumstances set out in Article 32(4) occurs.
6.  
For the purposes of point (a) of paragraph 4, a group shall be deemed to be failing or likely to fail where the group infringes or there are objective elements to support a determination that the group, in the near future, will infringe its consolidated prudential requirements in a way that would justify action by the competent authority including but not limited to because the group has incurred or is likely to incur losses that will deplete all or a significant amount of its own funds.
7.  
A relevant capital instrument issued by a subsidiary shall not be written down to a greater extent or converted on worse terms pursuant to point (c) of paragraph 3 than equally ranked capital instruments at the level of the parent undertaking which have been written down or converted.
8.  
Where an appropriate authority makes a determination referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article, it shall immediately notify the resolution authority responsible for the institution or for the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) in question, if different.
9.  
Before making a determination referred to in point (c) of paragraph 3of this Article in relation to a subsidiary that issues relevant capital instruments that are recognised for the purposes of meeting the own funds requirements on an individual and on a consolidated basis, the appropriate authority shall comply with the notification and consultation requirements laid down in Article 62.
10.  
Before exercising the power to write down or convert ►M3  ionstraimí caipitil, nó dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a ◄ , resolution authorities shall ensure that a valuation of the assets and liabilities of the institution or the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) is carried out in accordance with Article 36. That valuation shall form the basis of the calculation of the write down to be applied to the relevant ►M3  ionstraimí caipitil, nó dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a ◄ in order to absorb losses and the level of conversion to be applied to relevant ►M3  ionstraimí caipitil, nó dliteanais incháilithe dá dtagraítear i mír 1a ◄ in order to recapitalise the institution or the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1).

CHAPTER VII

Safeguards

Article 73

Treatment of shareholders and creditors in the case of partial transfers and application of the bail-in tool

Member States shall ensure that, where one or more resolution tools have been applied and, in particular for the purposes of Article 75:

(a) 

except where point (b) applies, where resolution authorities transfer only parts of the rights, assets and liabilities of the institution under resolution, the shareholders and those creditors whose claims have not been transferred, receive in satisfaction of their claims at least as much as what they would have received if the institution under resolution had been wound up under normal insolvency proceedings at the time when the decision referred to in Article 82 was taken;

(b) 

where resolution authorities apply the bail-in tool, the shareholders and creditors whose claims have been written down or converted to equity do not incur greater losses than they would have incurred if the institution under resolution had been wound up under normal insolvency proceedings immediately at the time when the decision referred to in Article 82 was taken.

Article 74

Valuation of difference in treatment

1.  
For the purposes of assessing whether shareholders and creditors would have received better treatment if the institution under resolution had entered into normal insolvency proceedings, including but not limited to for the purpose of Article 73, Member States shall ensure that a valuation is carried out by an independent person as soon as possible after the resolution action or actions have been effected. That valuation shall be distinct from the valuation carried out under Article 36.
2.  

The valuation in paragraph 1 shall determine:

(a) 

the treatment that shareholders and creditors, or the relevant deposit guarantee schemes, would have received if the institution under resolution with respect to which the resolution action or actions have been effected had entered normal insolvency proceedings at the time when the decision referred to in Article 82 was taken;

(b) 

the actual treatment that shareholders and creditors have received, in the resolution of the institution under resolution; and

(c) 

if there is any difference between the treatment referred to in point (a) and the treatment referred to in point (b).

3.  

The valuation shall:

(a) 

assume that the institution under resolution with respect to which the resolution action or actions have been effected, would have entered normal insolvency proceedings at the time when the decision referred to in Article 82 was taken;

(b) 

assume that the resolution action or actions had not been effected;

(c) 

disregard any provision of extraordinary public financial support to the institution under resolution.

4.  
EBA may develop draft regulatory technical standards specifying the methodology for carrying out the valuation in this Article, in particular the methodology for assessing the treatment that shareholders and creditors would have received if the institution under resolution had entered insolvency proceedings at the time when the decision referred to in Article 82 was taken.

Power is delegated to the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.

Article 75

Safeguard for shareholders and creditors

Member States shall ensure that if the valuation carried out under Article 74 determines that any shareholder or creditor referred to in Article 73, or the deposit guarantee scheme in accordance with Article 109(1), has incurred greater losses than it would have incurred in a winding up under normal insolvency proceedings, it is entitled to the payment of the difference from the resolution financing arrangements.

Article 76

1.  

Member States shall ensure that the protections specified in paragraph 2 apply in the following circumstances:

The form of protection that is appropriate, for the classes of arrangements specified in points (a) to (f) of this paragraph is further specified in Articles 77 to 80, and shall be subject to the restrictions specified in Articles 68 to 71.

transfer covered deposits which are part of any of the arrangements mentioned in paragraph 1 without transferring other assets, rights or liabilities that are part of the same arrangement; and

The agreements referred to in paragraph 1 shall, in particular, seek to ensure the establishment of processes and arrangements between resolution authorities and the relevant third country authorities for cooperation in carrying out some or all of the tasks and exercising some or all of the powers indicated in Article 97.
3.  
The agreements referred to in paragraph 1 shall not make provision in relation to individual institutions, financial institutions, parent undertakings or third country institutions.
4.  
Member States may enter into bilateral agreements with a third country regarding the matters referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 until the entry into force of an agreement referred to in paragraph 1 with the relevant third country to the extent that such bilateral agreements are not inconsistent with this Title.

Article 94

Recognition and enforcement of third-country resolution proceedings

1.  
This Article shall apply in respect of third-country resolution proceedings unless and until an international agreement as referred to in Article 93(1) enters into force with the relevant third country. It shall also apply following the entry into force of an international agreement as referred to in Article 93(1) with the relevant third country to the extent that recognition and enforcement of third-country resolution proceedings is not governed by that agreement.
2.  

Where there is a European resolution college established in accordance with Article 89, it shall take a joint decision on whether to recognise, except as provided for in Article 95, third-country resolution proceedings relating to a third-country institution or a parent undertaking that:

(a) 

has Union subsidiaries established in, or Union branches located in and regarded as significant by, two or more Member States; or

(b) 

has assets, rights or liabilities located in two or more Member States or are governed by the law of those Member States.

Where the joint decision on the recognition of the third-country resolution proceedings is reached, respective national resolution authorities shall seek the enforcement of the recognised third-country resolution proceedings in accordance with their national law.

3.  
In the absence of a joint decision between the resolution authorities participating in the European resolution college, or in the absence of a European resolution college, each resolution authority concerned shall make its own decision on whether to recognise and enforce, except as provided for in Article 95, third-country resolution proceedings relating to a third-country institution or a parent undertaking.

The decision shall give due consideration to the interests of each individual Member State where a third-country institution or parent undertaking operates, and in particular to the potential impact of the recognition and enforcement of the third-country resolution proceedings on the other parts of the group and the financial stability in those Member States.

4.  

Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities are, as a minimum, empowered to do the following:

(a) 

exercise the resolution powers in relation to the following:

(i) 

assets of a third-country institution or parent undertaking that are located in their Member State or governed by the law of their Member State;

(ii) 

rights or liabilities of a third-country institution that are booked by the Union branch in their Member State or governed by the law of their Member State, or where claims in relation to such rights and liabilities are enforceable in their Member State;

(b) 

perfect, including to require another person to take action to perfect, a transfer of shares or other instruments of ownership in a Union subsidiary established in the designating Member State;

(c) 

exercise the powers in Article 69, 70 or 71 in relation to the rights of any party to a contract with an entity referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article, where such powers are necessary in order to enforce third-country resolution proceedings; and

(d) 

render unenforceable any right to terminate, liquidate or accelerate contracts, or affect the contractual rights, of entities referred to in paragraph 2 and other group entities, where such a right arises from resolution action taken in respect of the third-country institution, parent undertaking of such entities or other group entities, whether by the third-country resolution authority itself or otherwise pursuant to legal or regulatory requirements as to resolution arrangements in that country, provided that the substantive obligations under the contract, including payment and delivery obligations, and provision of collateral, continue to be performed.

5.  
Resolution authorities may take, where necessary in the public interest, resolution action with respect to a parent undertaking where the relevant third-country authority determines that an institution that is incorporated in that third country meets the conditions for resolution under the law of that third country. To that end, Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities are empowered to use any resolution power in respect of that parent undertaking, and Article 68 shall apply.
6.  
The recognition and enforcement of third-country resolution proceedings shall be without prejudice to any normal insolvency proceedings under national law applicable, where appropriate, in accordance with this Directive.

Article 95

Right to refuse recognition or enforcement of third-country resolution proceedings

The resolution authority, after consulting other resolution authorities, where a European resolution college is established under Article 89, may refuse to recognise or to enforce third-country resolution proceedings pursuant to Article 94(2) if it considers:

(a) 

that the third-country resolution proceedings would have adverse effects on financial stability in the Member State in which the resolution authority is based or that the proceedings would have adverse effects on financial stability in another Member State;

(b) 

that independent resolution action under Article 96 in relation to a Union branch is necessary to achieve one or more of the resolution objectives;

(c) 

that creditors, including in particular depositors located or payable in a Member State, would not receive the same treatment as third-country creditors and depositors with similar legal rights under the third-country home resolution proceedings;

(d) 

that recognition or enforcement of the third-country resolution proceedings would have material fiscal implications for the Member State; or

(e) 

that the effects of such recognition or enforcement would be contrary to the national law.

Article 96

Resolution of Union branches

1.  
Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities have the powers necessary to act in relation to a Union branch that is not subject to any third-country resolution proceedings or that is subject to third-country proceedings and one of the circumstances referred to in Article 95 applies.

Member States shall ensure that Article 68 applies to the exercise of such powers.

2.  

Member States shall ensure that the powers required in paragraph 1 may be exercised by resolution authorities where the resolution authority considers that action is necessary in the public interest and one or more of the following conditions is met:

(a) 

the Union branch no longer meets, or is likely not to meet, the conditions imposed by national law for its authorisation and operation within that Member State and there is no prospect that any private sector, supervisory or relevant third-country action would restore the branch to compliance or prevent failure in a reasonable timeframe;

(b) 

the third-country institution is, in the opinion of the resolution authority, unable or unwilling, or is likely to be unable, to pay its obligations to Union creditors, or obligations that have been created or booked through the branch, as they fall due and the resolution authority is satisfied that no third-country resolution proceedings or insolvency proceedings have been or will be initiated in relation to that third-country institution in a reasonable timeframe;

(c) 

the relevant third-country authority has initiated third-country resolution proceedings in relation to the third-country institution, or has notified to the resolution authority its intention to initiate such a proceeding.

3.  

Where a resolution authority takes an independent action in relation to a Union branch, it shall have regard to the resolution objectives and take the action in accordance with the following principles and requirements, insofar as they are relevant:

(a) 

the principles set out in Article 34;

(b)

TITLE VII

FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

Article 99

European system of financing arrangements

A European system of financing arrangements shall be established and shall consist of:

(a) 

national financing arrangements established in accordance with Article 100;

(b) 

the borrowing between national financing arrangements as specified in Article 106,

(c) 

the mutualisation of national financing arrangements in the case of a group resolution as referred to in Article 107.

Article 100

Requirement to establish resolution financing arrangements

1.  
Member States shall establish one or more financing arrangements for the purpose of ensuring the effective application by the resolution authority of the resolution tools and powers.

Member States shall ensure that the use of the financing arrangements may be triggered by a designated public authority or authority entrusted with public administrative powers.

The financing arrangements shall be used only in accordance with the resolution objectives and the principles set out in Articles 31 and 34.

2.  
Member States may use the same administrative structure as their financing arrangements for the purposes of their deposit guarantee scheme.
3.  
Member States shall ensure that the financing arrangements have adequate financial resources.
4.  

For the purpose of paragraph 3, financing arrangements shall in particular have the power to:

(a) 

raise ex-ante contributions as referred to in Article 103 with a view to reaching the target level specified in Article 102;

(b) 

raise ex-post extraordinary contributions as referred to in Article 104 where the contributions specified in point (a) are insufficient; and

(c) 

contract borrowings and other forms of support as referred to in Article 105.

5.  
Save where permitted under paragraph 6, each Member State shall establish its national financing arrangements through a fund, the use of which may be triggered by its resolution authority for the purposes set out in Article 101(1).
6.  

Notwithstanding paragraph 5 of this Article, a Member State may, for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under paragraph 1 of this Article, establish its national financing arrangements through mandatory contributions from institutions which are authorised in its territory, which contributions are based on the criteria referred to in Article 103(7) and which are not held through a fund controlled by its resolution authority provided that all of the following conditions are met:

(a) 

the amount raised by contributions is at least equal to the amount that is required to be raised under Article 102;

(b) 

the Member State’s resolution authority is entitled to an amount that is equal to the amount of such contributions, which the Member State makes immediately available to that resolution authority upon the latter’s request, for use exclusively for the purposes set out in Article 101;

(c) 

the Member State notifies the Commission of its decision to avail itself of the discretion to structure its financing arrangements in accordance with this paragraph;

(d) 

the Member State notifies the Commission of the amount referred to in point (b) at least annually; and

(e) 

save as laid down in this paragraph, the financing arrangements comply with Articles 99 to 102, Article 103(1) to (4) and (6) and Articles 104 to 109.

For the purposes of this paragraph, the available financial means to be taken into account in order to reach the target level specified in Article 102 may include mandatory contributions from any scheme of mandatory contributions established by a Member State at any date between 17 June 2010 and 2 July 2014 from institutions in its territory for the purposes of covering the costs relating to systemic risk, failure and resolution of institutions, provided that the Member State complies with this Title. Contributions to deposit guarantee schemes shall not count towards the target level for resolution financing arrangements set out in Article 102.

Article 101

Use of the resolution financing arrangements

1.  

The financing arrangements established in accordance with Article 100 may be used by the resolution authority only to the extent necessary to ensure the effective application of the resolution tools, for the following purposes:

(a) 

to guarantee the assets or the liabilities of the institution under resolution, its subsidiaries, a bridge institution or an asset management vehicle;

(b) 

to make loans to the institution under resolution, its subsidiaries, a bridge institution or an asset management vehicle;

(c) 

to purchase assets of the institution under resolution;

(d) 

to make contributions to a bridge institution and an asset management vehicle;

(e) 

to pay compensation to shareholders or creditors in accordance with Article 75;

(f) 

to make a contribution to the institution under resolution in lieu of the write down or conversion of liabilities of certain creditors, when the bail-in tool is applied and the resolution authority decides to exclude certain creditors from the scope of bail-in in accordance with Article 44(3) to (8);

(g) 

to lend to other financing arrangements on a voluntary basis in accordance with Article 106;

(h) 

to take any combination of the actions referred to in points (a) to (g).

The financing arrangements may be used to take the actions referred to in the first subparagraph also with respect to the purchaser in the context of the sale of business tool.

2.  
The resolution financing arrangement shall not be used directly to absorb the losses of an institution or an entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or to recapitalise such an institution or an entity. In the event that the use of the resolution financing arrangement for the purposes in paragraph 1 of this Article indirectly results in part of the losses of an institution or an entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) being passed on to the resolution financing arrangement, the principles governing the use of the resolution financing arrangement set out in Article 44 shall apply.

Article 102

Target level

1.  
Member States shall ensure that, by 31 December 2024, the available financial means of their financing arrangements reach at least 1 % of the amount of covered deposits of all the institutions authorised in their territory. Member States may set target levels in excess of that amount.
2.  
During the initial period of time referred to in paragraph 1, contributions to the financing arrangements raised in accordance with Article 103 shall be spread out in time as evenly as possible until the target level is reached, but with due account of the phase of the business cycle and the impact pro-cyclical contributions may have on the financial position of contributing institutions.

Member States may extend the initial period of time for a maximum of four years if the financing arrangements have made cumulative disbursements in excess of 0,5 % of covered deposits of all the institutions authorised in their territory which are guaranteed under Directive 2014/49/EU.

3.  
If, after the initial period of time referred to in paragraph 1, the available financial means diminish below the target level specified in that paragraph, the regular contributions raised in accordance with Article 103 shall resume until the target level is reached. After the target level has been reached for the first time and where the available financial means have subsequently been reduced to less than two thirds of the target level, those contributions shall be set at a level allowing for reaching the target level within six years.

The regular contribution shall take due account of the phase of the business cycle, and the impact procyclical contributions may have when setting annual contributions in the context of this paragraph.

4.  
EBA shall submit a report to the Commission by 31 October 2016 with recommendations on the appropriate reference point for setting the target level for resolution financing arrangements, and in particular whether total liabilities constitute a more appropriate basis than covered deposits.
5.  
Based on the results of the report referred to in paragraph 4, the Commission shall, if appropriate, submit, by 31 December 2016, to the European Parliament and to the Council a legislative proposal on the basis for the target level for resolution financing arrangements.

Article 103

Ex-ante contributions

1.  
In order to reach the target level specified in Article 102, Member States shall ensure that contributions are raised at least annually from the institutions authorised in their territory including Union branches.
2.  
The contribution of each institution shall be pro rata to the amount of its liabilities (excluding own funds) less covered deposits, with respect to the aggregate liabilities (excluding own funds) less covered deposits of all the institutions authorised in the territory of the Member State.

Those contributions shall be adjusted in proportion to the risk profile of institutions, in accordance with the criteria adopted under paragraph 7.

3.  
The available financial means to be taken into account in order to reach the target level specified in Article 102 may include irrevocable payment commitments which are fully backed by collateral of low risk assets unencumbered by any third party rights, at the free disposal and earmarked for the exclusive use by the resolution authorities for the purposes specified in Article 101(1). The share of irrevocable payment commitments shall not exceed 30 % of the total amount of contributions raised in accordance with this Article.
4.  
Member States shall ensure that the obligation to pay the contributions specified in this Article is enforceable under national law, and that due contributions are fully paid.

Member States shall set up appropriate regulatory, accounting, reporting and other obligations to ensure that due contributions are fully paid. Member States shall ensure measures for the proper verification of whether the contributions have been paid correctly. Member States shall ensure measures to prevent evasion, avoidance and abuse.

5.  
The amounts raised in accordance with this Article shall only be used for the purposes specified in Article 101(1).
6.  
Subject to Articles 37, 38, 40, 41 and 42, the amounts received from the institution under resolution or the bridge institution, the interest and other earnings on investments and any other earnings may benefit the financing arrangements.
7.  

The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 115 in order to specify the notion of adjusting contributions in proportion to the risk profile of institutions as referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article, taking into account all of the following:

(a) 

the risk exposure of the institution, including the importance of its trading activities, its off-balance sheet exposures and its degree of leverage;

(b) 

the stability and variety of the company’s sources of funding and unencumbered highly liquid assets;

(c) 

the financial condition of the institution;

(d) 

the probability that the institution enters into resolution;

(e) 

the extent to which the institution has previously benefited from extraordinary public financial support;

(f) 

the complexity of the structure of the institution and its resolvability;

(g) 

the importance of the institution to the stability of the financial system or economy of one or more Member States or of the Union;

(h) 

the fact that the institution is part of an IPS.

8.  

The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 115 in order to specify:

(a) 

the registration, accounting, reporting obligations and other obligations referred to in paragraph 4 intended to ensure that the contributions are in fact paid;

(b) 

the measures referred to in paragraph 4 to ensure proper verification of whether the contributions have been paid correctly.

Article 104

Extraordinary ex-post contributions

1.  
Where the available financial means are not sufficient to cover the losses, costs or other expenses incurred by the use of the financing arrangements, Member States shall ensure that extraordinary ex-post contributions are raised from the institutions authorised in their territory, in order to cover the additional amounts. Those extraordinary ex-post contributions shall be allocated between institutions in accordance with the rules laid down in Article 103(2).

Extraordinary ex-post contributions shall not exceed three times the annual amount of contributions determined in accordance with Article 103.

2.  
Article 103(4) to (8) shall be applicable to the contributions raised under this Article.
3.  
The resolution authority may defer, in whole or in part, an institution’s payment of extraordinary ex-post contributions to the resolution financing arrangement if the payment of those contributions would jeopardise the liquidity or solvency of the institution. Such a deferral shall not be granted for a period of longer than six months but may be renewed upon the request of the institution. The contributions deferred pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid when such a payment no longer jeopardises the institution’s liquidity or solvency.
4.  
The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 115 to specify the circumstances and conditions under which the payment of contributions by an institution may be deferred pursuant to paragraph 3 of this Article.

Article 105

Alternative funding means

Member States shall ensure that financing arrangements under their jurisdiction are enabled to contract borrowings or other forms of support from institutions, financial institutions or other third parties in the event that the amounts raised in accordance with Article 103 are not sufficient to cover the losses, costs or other expenses incurred by the use of the financing arrangements, and the extraordinary ex-post contributions provided for in Article 104 are not immediately accessible or sufficient.

Article 106

Borrowing between financing arrangements

1.  

Member States shall ensure that financing arrangements under their jurisdiction may make a request to borrow from all other financing arrangements within the Union, in the event that:

(a) 

the amounts raised under Article 103 are not sufficient to cover the losses, costs or other expenses incurred by the use of the financing arrangements;

(b) 

the extraordinary ex-post contributions provided for in Article 104 are not immediately accessible; and

(c) 

the alternative funding means provided for in Article 105 are not immediately accessible on reasonable terms.

2.  
Member States shall ensure that financing arrangements under their jurisdiction have the power to lend to other financing arrangements within the Union in the circumstances specified in paragraph 1.
3.  
Following a request under paragraph 1, each of the other financing arrangements in the Union shall decide whether to lend to the financing arrangement which has made the request. Member States may require that that decision is taken after consulting, or with the consent of, the competent ministry or the government. The decision shall be taken with due urgency.
4.  
The rate of interest, repayment period and other terms and conditions of the loans shall be agreed between the borrowing financing arrangement and the other financing arrangements which have decided to participate. The loan of every participating financing arrangement shall have the same interest rate, repayment period and other terms and conditions, unless all participating financing arrangements agree otherwise.
5.  
The amount lent by each participating resolution financing arrangement shall be pro rata to the amount of covered deposits in the Member State of that resolution financing arrangement, with respect to the aggregate of covered deposits in the Member States of participating resolution financing arrangements. Those rates of contribution may vary upon agreement of all participating financing arrangements.
6.  
An outstanding loan to a resolution financing arrangement of another Member State under this Article shall be treated as an asset of the resolution financing arrangement which provided the loan and may be counted towards that financing arrangement’s target level.

Article 107

Mutualisation of national financing arrangements in the case of a group resolution

1.  
Member States shall ensure that, in the case of a group resolution as referred to in Article 91 or Article 92, the national financing arrangement of each institution that is part of a group contributes to the financing of the group resolution in accordance with this Article.
2.  
For the purposes of paragraph 1, the group-level resolution authority, after consulting the resolution authorities of the institutions that are part of the group, shall propose, if necessary before taking any resolution action, a financing plan as part of the group resolution scheme provided for in Articles 91 and 92.

The financing plan shall be agreed in accordance with the decision-making procedure referred to in Articles 91 and 92.

3.  

The financing plan shall include:

the proportion of the group’s risk-weighted assets held at institutions and entities referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of Article 1(1) established in the Member State of that resolution financing arrangement;

(b) 

the proportion of the group’s assets held at institutions and entities referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of Article 1(1) established in the Member State of that resolution financing arrangement;

(c) 

the proportion of the losses, which have given rise to the need for group resolution, which originated in group entities under the supervision of competent authorities in the Member State of that resolution financing arrangement; and

(d)

Article 109

Use of deposit guarantee schemes in the context of resolution

1.  

Member States shall ensure that, where the resolution authorities take resolution action, and provided that that action ensures that depositors continue to have access to their deposits, the deposit guarantee scheme to which the institution is affiliated is liable for:

(a) 

when the bail-in tool is applied, the amount by which covered deposits would have been written down in order to absorb the losses in the institution pursuant to point (a) of Article 46(1), had covered deposits been included within the scope of bail-in and been written down to the same extent as creditors with the same level of priority under the national law governing normal insolvency proceedings; or

(b) 

when one or more resolution tools other than the bail-in tool is applied, the amount of losses that covered depositors would have suffered, had covered depositors suffered losses in proportion to the losses suffered by creditors with the same level of priority under the national law governing normal insolvency proceedings.

In all cases, the liability of the deposit guarantee scheme shall not be greater than the amount of losses that it would have had to bear had the institution been wound up under normal insolvency proceedings.

When the bail-in tool is applied, the deposit guarantee scheme shall not be required to make any contribution towards the costs of recapitalising the institution or bridge institution pursuant to point (b) of Article 46(1).

Where it is determined by a valuation under Article 74 that the deposit guarantee scheme’s contribution to resolution was greater than the net losses it would have incurred had the institution been wound up under normal insolvency proceedings, the deposit guarantee scheme shall be entitled to the payment of the difference from the resolution financing arrangement in accordance with Article 75.

2.  
Member States shall ensure that the determination of the amount by which the deposit guarantee scheme is liable in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Article complies with the conditions referred to in Article 36.
3.  
The contribution from the deposit guarantee scheme for the purpose of paragraph 1 shall be made in cash.
4.  
Where eligible deposits at an institution under resolution are transferred to another entity through the sale of business tool or the bridge institution tool, the depositors have no claim under Directive 2014/49/EU against the deposit guarantee scheme in relation to any part of their deposits at the institution under resolution that are not transferred, provided that the amount of funds transferred is equal to or more than the aggregate coverage level provided for in Article 6 of Directive 2014/49/EU.
5.  
Notwithstanding paragraphs 1 to 4, if the available financial means of a deposit guarantee scheme are used in accordance therewith and are subsequently reduced to less than two thirds of the target level of the deposit guarantee scheme, the regular contribution to the deposit guarantee scheme shall be set at a level allowing for reaching the target level within six years.

In all cases, the liability of a deposit guarantee scheme shall not be greater than the amount equal to 50 % of its target level pursuant to Article 10 of Directive 2014/49/EU. Member States, may, by taking into account the specificities of their national banking sector, set a percentage which is higher than 50 %.

In any circumstances, the deposit guarantee scheme’s participation under this Directive shall not exceed the losses it would have incurred in a winding up under normal insolvency proceedings.

TITLE VIII

PENALTIES

Administrative penalties and other administrative measures

1.  
Without prejudice to the right of Member States to provide for and impose criminal penalties, Member States shall lay down rules on administrative penalties and other administrative measures applicable where the national provisions transposing this Directive have not been complied with, and shall take all measures necessary to ensure that they are implemented. Where Member States decide not to lay down rules for administrative penalties for infringements which are subject to national criminal law they shall communicate to the Commission the relevant criminal law provisions. The administrative penalties and other administrative measures shall be effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
2.  
Member States shall ensure that, where obligations referred to in the first paragraph apply to institutions, financial institutions and Union parent undertakings, in the event of an infringement, administrative penalties can be applied, subject to the conditions laid down in national law, to the members of the management body, and to other natural persons who under national law are responsible for the infringement.
3.  
The powers to impose administrative penalties provided for in this Directive shall be attributed to resolution authorities or, where different, to competent authorities, depending on the type of infringement. Resolution authorities and competent authorities shall have all information-gathering and investigatory powers that are necessary for the exercise of their respective functions. In the exercise of their powers to impose penalties, resolution authorities and competent authorities shall cooperate closely to ensure that administrative penalties or other administrative measures produce the desired results and coordinate their action when dealing with cross-border cases.
4.  

Resolution authorities and competent authorities shall exercise their administrative powers to impose penalties in accordance with this Directive and national law in any of the following ways:

(a) 

directly;

(b) 

in collaboration with other authorities;

(c) 

under their responsibility by delegation to such authorities;

(d) 

by application to the competent judicial authorities.

Article 111

Specific provisions

failure to draw up, maintain and update recovery plans and group recovery plans, infringing Article 5 or 7;

2.  

Member States shall ensure that, in the cases referred to in paragraph 1, the administrative penalties and other administrative measures that can be applied include at least the following:

(a) 

a public statement which indicates the natural person, institution, financial institution, Union parent undertaking or other legal person responsible and the nature of the infringement;

an order requiring the natural or legal person responsible to cease the conduct and to desist from a repetition of that conduct;

(c) 

a temporary ban against any member of the management body or senior management of the institution or the entity referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or any other natural person, who is held responsible, to exercise functions in institutions or entities referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1);

(d)

administrative fines of up to twice the amount of the benefit derived from the infringement where that benefit can be determined.

Article 112

Publication of administrative penalties

1.  
Member States shall ensure that resolution authorities and competent authorities publish on their official website at least any administrative penalties imposed by them for infringing the national provisions transposing this Directive where such penalties have not been the subject of an appeal or where the right of appeal has been exhausted. Such publication shall be made without undue delay after the natural or legal person is informed of that penalty including information on the type and nature of the infringement and the identity of the natural or legal person on whom the penalty is imposed.

Where Member States permit publication of penalties against which there is an appeal, resolution authorities and competent authorities shall, without undue delay, publish on their official websites information on the status of that appeal and the outcome thereof.

2.  

Resolution authorities and competent authorities shall publish the penalties imposed by them on an anonymous basis, in a manner which is in accordance with national law, in any of the following circumstances:

(a) 

where the penalty is imposed on a natural person and publication of personal data is shown to be disproportionate by an obligatory prior assessment of the proportionality of such publication;

(b) 

where publication would jeopardise the stability of financial markets or an ongoing criminal investigation;

(c) 

where publication would cause, insofar as it can be determined, disproportionate damage to the institutions or entities referred to in point (b), (c) or (d) of Article 1(1) or natural persons involved.

Alternatively, in such cases, the publication of the data in question may be postponed for a reasonable period of time, if it is foreseeable that the reasons for anonymous publication will cease to exist within that period.

3.  
Resolution authorities and competent authorities shall ensure that any publication in accordance with this Article shall remain on their official website for a period of at least five years. Personal data contained in the publication shall only be kept on the official website of the resolution authority or the competent authority for the period which is necessary in accordance with applicable data protection rules.
