The issues of regulatory environment of Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego operation with reference to European standards for public development banks. Current situation and own proposals for changes

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to point out the BGK’s exemption from the CRDIV/CRR package regulations and propose an idea for amending the Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego Act of March 14, 2003 with a view to the proportionality of solutions related to prudential and supervisory standards and the priority of tasks entrusted to the Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego by the Polish State. In the article, the Author attempts to demonstrate that introducing changes in BGK’s regulatory environment would be of advantage from the point of view of the Bank itself, its customers and economic development. The Author proposes two systemic solutions related to amending the BGK Act, i.e. the statutory determination of zero risk weight and separate limits of concentration per capital group.
