13/04/2022 (Agence Europe) – The European Banking Authority (EBA) published on Tuesday 12 April its final draft regulatory technical standards specifying risk retention requirements for originators, sponsors and original lenders. The amendments focus on the terms of risk retention in non-performing securitisations and the impact of fees payable to agents on the risk retention requirement. EBA wants to facilitate the securitisation of non-performing exposures to support the functioning of secondary markets. These standards, which will replace the Commission’s 2014 Delegated Regulation on securitisation, aim to clarify risk retention requirements to ensure better alignment of interests and reduce the risk of moral hazard, thereby contributing to the development of a healthy, safe and robust securitisation market.
