The SRB has today opened a public consultation of the banking industry and relevant stakeholders on its operational guidance for banks on separability and transferability.
The guidance is aligned with the SRB’s updated approach to crisis readiness, and includes an annex on testing. It also adds guidance on transfer, with an operational framework for developing transfer playbooks.
In line with the SRB’s drive to reduce administrative burden, this update does not introduce new deliverables, but aims to make existing ones more effective and to ensure a more efficient use of resources.
To support the consultation process, the SRB will meet the banking industry and other relevant stakeholders in September to address any questions before the consultation period ends. The consultation is open to the banking sector, other stakeholders and the public in general.
The SRB invites comments on all proposals, in particular, on the specific questions by XX October 2025.
Take part in the consultation by filling in the online questionnaire.
