#ECB looking at case-by-case solutions for soured bank credit
The European Central Bank will look for case-by-case solutions to resolve nearly €900 billion (£791.8bn) worth of soured debt weighing down the bloc’s banking sector, ECB supervisory chief Daniele Nouy (pictured) said on Tuesday (7 November).
“For the legacy (NPLs), well, the situation is very diverse, so it has to be only case by case assessment and solutions,” Nouy told a conference. “We are working with all the banks that have too-high levels of non-performing exposures.”
“They have submitted their own plans to address the issue,” she said. “We challenge those plans to make sure they are ambitious enough and they are credible enough. To be credible, they have to be realistic; they can’t promise us miracles.”
