~~SHORT JUSTIFICATION~~

(1a) The ongoing review of the Union crisis management and deposit insurance framework is intended to pave the way towards the long-due completion of the banking union, including the establishment of a European deposit insurance scheme. A first step in that direction is the establishment of an EU credit line provided by a dedicated fund, managed by the Single Resolution Board (SRB), to depleted, or close to being depleted, national DGSs. Where both the requesting DGS and the EU credit line are depleted, other existing DGSs within the Union should step in to provide the depleted DGS with the necessary financial means to perform its functions.

The Council position at first reading reflects the agreement reached between Parliament and the Council in interinstitutional negotiations at early second reading stage, after legal-linguistic verification. Since the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON), in its vote on 5 November 2025, already confirmed the outcome of those interinstitutional negotiations, as your rapporteur, I propose that ECON recommends that the Plenary confirms the position of the Council at first reading without amending it.

~~ANNEX: DECLARATION OF INPUT~~

Amendment 2

The rapporteur declares under her exclusive responsibility that she did not include in her report input from interest representatives falling within the scope of the Interinstitutional Agreement on a mandatory transparency register, or from representatives of public authorities of third countries, including their diplomatic missions and embassies, to be listed in this Annex pursuant to Article 8 of Annex I to the Rules of Procedure.

Recital 1 b (new)

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(1b) To ensure a smooth transition to the completion of the banking union, it is also necessary to harmonise the functions that DGSs can perform. Therefore, a number of discretions under national law included in Directive 2014/49/EU should be removed and all DGSs should be able to finance resolution measures, preventive measures and other alternative measures to the payout of depositors.

Recital 6

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(6) Deposits resulting from certain events, including real estate transactions relating to private residential properties or the payout of certain insurance benefits, can temporarily lead to large deposits. For that reason, Article 6(2) of Directive 2014/49/EU currently obliges Member States to ensure that deposits resulting from those events are protected above EUR 100 000 for at least 3 months, but for no longer than 12 months from the moment the amount has been credited or from the moment when such deposits become legally transferable. To harmonise depositor protection in the Union and to reduce the administrative complexity and legal uncertainty related to the scope of protection of such deposits, it is necessary to align their protection to at least EUR 500 000 for a harmonised duration of 6 months, in addition to the coverage level of EUR 100 000.

Amendment 5

Proposal for a directive

Recital 14

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(14) Clients of financial institutions do not always know which credit institution the financial institution has chosen to deposit their funds. DGSs should therefore not aggregate such deposits with a deposit that the same clients might have in the same credit institution where the financial institution has placed their deposits. Credit institutions may not know the clients entitled to the sum held in the client accounts, or be able to check and record individual data of those clients. Depending on the type and business model of the financial institution, there might be circumstances, where reimbursing the client directly could endanger the account holder. Therefore, DGSs should be allowed to reimburse amounts to a client account opened by the account holder in another credit institution for the benefit of each client when certain criteria are met. To avoid the risk of double payment in those situations, any claims clients have in relation to sums held on their behalf by the account holder should be reduced by the amount reimbursed by the DGS to those clients directly. The EBA should therefore develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify the technical details related to the identification of clients for the purpose of repayment, the criteria for repayment to the account holder for the benefit of each client or to the client directly, and the rules to avoid multiple claims for payouts to the same beneficiary.

Recital 18

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(18) Pursuant to Article 10(2) of Directive 2014/49/EU, Member States are to ensure that by 3 July 2024, the available financial means of a DGS reach a target level of 0,8 % of the amount of the covered deposits of its members. To objectively assess whether DGSs fulfil that requirement, a clear reference period should be set to determine the amount of covered deposits and DGSs’ available financial means. In light of the number of additional tasks and responsibilities entrusted to DGSs, it is necessary to raise their target level to 1% of covered deposits by [18 months after the entry into force of this Directive].

Amendment 7

Proposal for a directive

Recital 22

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(22) It is necessary to enhance depositor protection, while avoiding the need for a fire sale of the assets of a DGS and limiting possible negative pro-cyclical effects over the banking industry caused by the collection of extraordinary contributions. DGSs should therefore be allowed to use alternative funding arrangements that enable them to obtain at any time short-term funding from sources other than contributions, including before using their available financial means and funds collected through extraordinary contributions. Because credit institutions should primarily bear the cost and responsibility for financing DGSs, alternative funding arrangements from public funds should only be used as a last resort.

Recital 26

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(26) To ensure that preventive measures achieve their objective, credit institutions should be required to prepare a note outlining the measures that they commit to undertake. The preparation of such note should not be too burdensome and time-consuming for the credit institution to ensure the possibility for the DGS to intervene early enough. Therefore, the note accompanying preventive measures should take the form of a sufficiently short explanatory document. Such note should contain all elements which aim at preventing the outflow of funds and strengthening the capital and liquidity position of the credit institution, enabling the credit institution to comply with all the relevant prudential and other regulatory requirements on a forward-looking basis. Such note should therefore contain capital raising measures, including rules on the issuance of rights, the voluntary conversion of subordinated debt instruments, liability management exercises, capital generating sales of assets, the securitisation of portfolios, and earnings retention, including dividend bans and bans on the acquisition of stakes in undertakings. For the same reason, during the implementation of the measures envisaged in the note, credit institutions should also strengthen their liquidity positions and refrain from aggressive commercial practices, and from the repurchasing of own shares or call hybrid capital instruments. Such note should also contain an exit strategy for any support measures received. Competent authorities are best positioned to be consulted on the relevance and credibility of the measures envisaged in the note. To ensure that the designated authorities of the DGS that is requested to finance a preventive measure by the credit institution can assess that all the conditions for preventive measures are fulfilled, the competent authorities should cooperate with the designated authorities. To ensure a consistent approach to the application of preventive measures across the Union, the EBA should issue guidelines to assist credit institutions to draft such a note.

(26) To ensure that preventive measures achieve their objective, credit institutions should be required to prepare a note outlining the measures that they commit to undertake. The preparation of such note should not be too burdensome and time-consuming for the credit institution to ensure the possibility for the DGS to intervene early enough. Therefore, the note accompanying preventive measures should take the form of a sufficiently short explanatory document, which nonetheless provides sufficient details of the measures envisaged to prevent the failure of the credit institution. Such note should contain all elements which aim at preventing the outflow of funds and strengthening the capital and liquidity position of the credit institution, enabling the credit institution to comply with all the relevant prudential and other regulatory requirements on a forward-looking basis. Such note should therefore contain capital raising measures, including rules on the issuance of rights, the voluntary conversion of subordinated debt instruments, liability management exercises, capital generating sales of assets, the securitisation of portfolios, and earnings retention, including dividend bans and bans on the acquisition of stakes in undertakings. Additionally, the note should detail the credit institution’s initial capital shortfall, the capital raising measures implemented and the safeguards put in place to prevent the outflow of funds. No preventive measures should be granted to credit institutions until the competent authorities and the designated authorities consider that the measures included in the note are feasible and credible to ensure that the credit institution restores or maintains its compliance with the regulatory framework. For the same reason, during the implementation of the measures envisaged in the note, credit institutions should also strengthen their liquidity positions and refrain from aggressive commercial practices, and from the distribution of dividends or variable remuneration or repurchasing of own shares or call hybrid capital instruments. Such note should also contain an exit strategy for any support measures received. Competent authorities are best positioned to be consulted on the relevance and credibility of the measures envisaged in the note. To ensure that the designated authorities of the DGS that is requested to finance a preventive measure by the credit institution can assess that all the conditions for preventive measures are fulfilled, the competent authorities and the resolution authorities should cooperate with the designated authorities. To ensure a consistent approach to the application of preventive measures across the Union, the EBA should issue guidelines to assist credit institutions to draft such a note.

Recital 34

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(34) Credit institutions may change affiliation to a DGS because they move their headquarters to another Member State or convert their subsidiary into a branch or vice versa. Article 14(3) of Directive 2014/49/EU requires that the contributions of that credit institution paid during the 12 months preceding the transfer are transferred to the other DGS in proportion to the amount of covered deposits transferred. To ensure that the transfer of contributions to the receiving DGS is not dependent on divergent national rules regarding invoicing or actual date of payment of contributions, the DGS of origin should calculate the amount to be transferred on the basis of contributions due rather than contributions paid.

Recital 37

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(37) The merger of a credit institution or the conversion of subsidiary into branch or vice versa might affect the key features of depositor protection. To avoid adverse impacts on depositors that would have deposits in both merging banks and whose claim to deposit coverage would be reduced because of changes to DGS affiliation, all depositors should be informed about such changes and should have the right to withdraw their funds without incurring a penalty up to an amount equal to the lost coverage of deposits.

To avoid adverse impacts on depositors that would have deposits in both merging banks and whose claim to deposit coverage would be reduced because of changes to DGS affiliation, all depositors should be informed about such changes and should have the right to withdraw their funds without incurring any costs up to an amount equal to the total coverage of deposits.

Recital 45

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

(45) Directive 2014/49/EU allows Member States to recognise an IPS as a DGS if it fulfils the criteria laid down in Article 113(7) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and complies with Directive 2014/49/EU. To take into account the specific business model of those IPSs, in particular the relevance of preventive measures at the core of their mandate, it is appropriate to provide for the possibility of Member States to allow IPSs to adapt to the new safeguards for the application of preventive measures within a 6-year period. This possibly longer compliance period takes into account the timeline for the build-up of a segregated fund for IPS purposes other than deposit insurance as agreed between the European Central Bank, the national competent authority and the relevant IPSs.

(45) Directive 2014/49/EU allows Member States to recognise an IPS as a DGS if it fulfils the criteria laid down in Article 113(7) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and complies with Directive 2014/49/EU. To take into account the specific business model of those IPSs, in particular the relevance of the functions at the core of their mandate that they perform in addition to the ones covered by this Directive, it is appropriate to provide for the possibility of Member States to allow IPSs to continue to perform such functions. To ensure a level playing field and preserve a high degree of protection of depositors, the functions and tasks performed in addition to the ones covered by this Directive should be financed through additional financial means, on top of the target level. IPSs should build-up a segregated fund for IPS purposes other than the functions covered by this Directive as agreed between the European Central Bank, the national competent authority and the relevant IPSs.
