Public statements of Consultation Practices

CEBS' main tools consist of standards and guidelines. Before delivering the results of its work CEBS is committed to conduct public consultations in an open and transparent manner.

Public Statement of Consultation Practices 

Standards and Guidelines

Standards are related to a legislative provision which per se is directly applicable, but whose application requires particular guidance for any other reason, or they are not directly related to Community legislation. Standards cover the substance as well as processes and can be addressed to supervised institutions as well as to supervisory authorities. For example, they may be used to explain to industry practitioners what supervisors will expect of them. They may also be addressed to national legislators in so far as some authorities have the power or need to incorporate them in national legislation.


Guidelines are further specification of EU legislation, especially where such legislation provides for minimum harmonisation, covering the substance as well as processes. Guidelines will be addressed to supervised institutions and supervisory authorities. They may also be addressed to national legislators in so far as some authorities have the power or need to incorporate them in national legislation.
