EU’s Single Resolution Board has imposed a minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities on Municipality Finance

Acting as Municipality Finance Plc’s (MuniFin) crisis resolution authority, the EU’s Single Resolution Board (SRB) has imposed a minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities on MuniFin (MREL requirement). The size of the MREL requirement is 10.25% of the total risk exposure amount and 3.00% of the leverage ratio exposure. The MREL requirement is based on simplified resolution strategy applying to MuniFin in accordance with SRB’s decision.
The MREL requirement will take effect on 1 January 2024. MuniFin must fully comply with the final MREL target levels from 1 January 2022 onwards.
MuniFin’s own funds and eligible liabilities exceed the minimum requirements by a wide margin.
