The Prudential Authority has called for input by 29 April 2024 on a draft directive prescribing more requirements to be met by banks in the context of Tier 1 and 2 capital instrument loss absorbency and related trigger events. Once finalised, the new directive will replace a guidance note in force since August 2017.
Underpinned by Basel III framework requirements for recognition as additional Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital instruments, the proposed new directive will augment existing regulatory obligations.
