Directive
from the

ii Compliance Professionals Association (BCPA)

world
Article 4
Identifying a financial
conglomerate
1. Competent authorities which have authorised
regulated entities shall, on the basis of Articles 2, 3 and 5,
identify any group that falls under the scope of this
Directive.
For this purpose:
— competent authorities which have authorised
regulated entities in the group shall, where necessary, cooperate
closely,
— if a competent authority is of the opinion that a
regulated entity authorised by that competent authority is a member
of a group which may be a financial conglomerate, which has not
already been identified according to this Directive, the competent
authority shall communicate its view to the other competent
authorities concerned.
2. The coordinator appointed in accordance with
Article 10 shall inform the parent undertaking at the head of a
group or, in the absence of a parent undertaking, the regulated
entity with the largest balance sheet total in the most important
financial sector in a group, that the group has been identified as a
financial conglomerate and of the appointment of the coordinator.
The coordinator shall
also inform the competent authorities which have authorised
regulated entities in the group and the competent authorities of the

INFORMATION ABOUT THE OFFICIAL PRESENTATIONS
We will
send you 3 emails.
The first email (704 slides) covers all
the presentations that are needed for the CBiiPro Exam. All the
questions of the exam are based on these slides.
You can find
the course synopsis at:
www.basel-ii-association.com/Certified_Basel_ii_Professional.htm
We also cover the Enhancements to
the Basel II framework, July 2009, Supplemental Pillar 2
Guidance
(Supervisory Review Process) from the Bank for
International Settlements
The second and the third emails
cover the implementation of the Basel ii framework in the United
States of America and the European Economic Area. There
presentations are especially important for professionals working in
multinational or large financial organizations.
These
presentations are:
- Basel II in the United States of America
(235 slides)
- The Capital Requirements Directive of the
European Union (426 slides)
The Capital Requirements
Directive (CRD) is the common framework for the implementation of
Basel ii in European Union.
If you understand the Capital
Requirements Directive (CRD), you can work not only for the
implementation of the Basel ii framework in the 27 countries of the
European Union, but also around the world for multinational banks
and financial organizations with European operations.
The
presentations not only cover the European directives, but also
include topics like: Hedge Funds and the Capital Requirements
Directive, Securitization and the Capital Requirements
Directive.
- Regulatory Arbitrage after Basel ii (233
slides)
- The Financial Conglomerates
Directive (183 slides)
QUESTION:
Why in a Basel ii
certification program we need to understand the Financial
Conglomerates Directive?
ANSWER:
Because we have a very
different Basel ii implementation in each of the following
structures:
A. The bank is the regulated entity at the head of
the group
B. The bank is under a mixed financial holding company
(MFHC)
C. The bank is under a financial holding company
(FHC)
D. The bank is under an insurance holding company
(IHC)
Only the first 704 slides (first email), that cover the
Basel ii principles, are needed for the
exam.
