5. Cross-border and cross-sector impact of the measure | |||||
5.1 Assessment of cross-border effects and the likely impact on the internal market (Recommendation ESRB/2015/2) | The French banking system is rather concentrated on a consolidated basis. Four French banking groups have a G-SII and O-SII status. With the designation of two additional systemic banking groups in France as O-SIIs, the market share of the 6 French systemic banking groups covers around 83% of the total assets of the French banking system (at the highest level of consolidation). In close coordination, the ACPR and the Banque de France (Directorate General Operations and Financial Stability) monitor the development of structural risks and of interconnectedness within the EU banking system, using multiple data sources for measuring cross-border exposures. This monitoring activity is complemented by empirical assessment in line with the work of the International Banking Research Network (IBRN) on cross-border spill-over effects. Such assessment reveals that any tightening of capital requirement by the French authorities would generally have very small impact in terms of cross-border spill-overs. | ||||
5.2 Assessment of leakages and regulatory arbitrage within the notifying Member State | This is closely monitored by the Research and Risk Analysis Directorate of the ACPR and there is no sign of leakages or regulatory arbitrage. |
