EBA consults on Revised Guidelines on Deposit Guarantee Schemes
Stress Tests
The EBA has published a consultation paper aimed at replacing
the existing Guidelines on stress tests of Deposit Guarantee Shemes
(DGS). The proposed revised guidelines aim to extend the scope of
DGS stress testing and also seek to achieve a greater degree of
harmonisation and comparability, allowing the EBA to carry out a
robust peer review of national DSG stress tests in 2024/2025.
The consultation period will run until 11 June 2021.
