The NPL Advisory Panel is an informal Commission expert group. It has proven to be a veritable asset in providing expert feedback and advice to the Commission, in first instance on the measures regarding the development of NPL secondary markets. It helped to make swift progress on a number of initiatives included in the action plan, including the best‑execution sales guidelines.
The panel's mandate was extended to finalise the ongoing work, notably on securitisation to develop further secondary markets for NPLs, and on monitoring further developments in NPLs secondary markets to potentially foster their transparency and efficiency.
