🇪🇺@Isabel_Schnabel: The United Kingdom remains an important partner of the European Union and the euro area, and London is still a global financial centre. Therefore, the ECB has a small office in London to maintain our network and collect market intelligence. #AskECB
RT @JanMusschoot: @ecb @Isabel_Schnabel Why does the ECB need an office in London? #AskECB

No one wins in a wage-price spiral, Vice-President Luis de Guindos tells Süddeutsche Zeitung @SZ. We must avoid one or the ECB will have to raise interest rates by more than would have otherwise been needed.

Every year we look at the challenges banks face, to make sure they can fend them off. What did we find in our latest assessment?
Host @KatieRanger_ explores this topic with Supervisory Board Chair Andrea Enria in #TheECBPodcast.
Tune in https://pod.link/1481819425/episode/25e491a0ebc06788e02079017b73e6a6
Enria: We’re asking banks to make sure they actively manage risks of cross border and direct exposure to Russia. Many have already taken action.
Enria: Governance is one area where we are raising more issues with many banks. If this issue is not resolved there will be some supervisory consequences.
Enria: We noticed an increase in cyber attacks during the pandemic and after Russia invaded Ukraine. The level of damage from these attacks has not been massive, but it is an area to which banks need to devote a lot of attention.
The landscape of banks' internal models is very complex. We have launched an initiative to simplify it. The benefits of internal models will be limited with the introduction of the output floor, Supervisory Board Chair Andrea Enria tells a press conference.
Enria: European banking supervision is not only working to ensure banks remain resilient to shocks. It is also striving to make its supervisory interventions more effective and enforceable for long-lasting and unresolved issues affecting the banking sector
Enria: For the few banks that are highly exposed to the risks of leveraged transactions or have specific deficiencies in their risk controls for this line of business, in the 2022 cycle we introduced a targeted capital add-on in their Pillar 2 requirements
Enria: Risk data aggregation and reporting was the worst-rated sub-category of internal governance in the 2022 SREP cycle. Despite supervisory efforts, adequate risk data aggregation and reporting capabilities are still the exception
Enria: There are some signs of latent risk, highlighting the need for a prudent approach to risk management and provisioning. Although headline NPE figures continued to improve, bad loans have already started to increase in specific portfolios, such as consumer finance
Supervisory Board Chair Andrea Enria: A key factor putting downward pressure on supervisory stance is the persistent weakness of internal controls. Risk control deficiencies are still affecting credit scores https://www.bankingsupervision.europa.eu/press/speeches/date/2023/html/ssm.sp230208~4ee762ce05.en.html

Banks have solid capital and liquidity positions and increased profitability, our latest SREP shows. However, they still need to address persistent weaknesses, particularly in their risk control and governance frameworks.
