Target audience

Public consultation to amend the Implementing Regulations on the mapping of credit assessments of External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAIs) for credit risk to reflect the outcomes of a monitoring exercise on the adequacy of existing mappings. The Implementing Regulations are part of the EU Single Rulebook for banking and insurance aimed at creating a safe and sound regulatory framework consistently applicable across the European Union (EU).

In the Implementing Regulations on the mapping of ECAIs, adopted by the European Commission in 2016, EIOPA specified an approach that establishes the correspondence between credit ratings and the credit quality steps defined in the Solvency II Directive. EIOPA is now consulting on an amendment to the Implementing Regulation to reflect the outcome of a monitoring exercise on the adequacy of the mappings, based on a quantitative and qualitative assessment.
