Cooperation with other Authorities

In order to conduct its supervisory tasks in the most effective manner and recognizing the benefits and the necessity of close cooperation with other Greek and foreign authorities, the Bank of Greece complies in full with the provisions of European Legislation as well as with the procedures and standards set by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, the European Central Bank, the Committee of European Banking Supervisors and other fora concerning the cooperation among authorities on a domestic and cross border level. Moreover, the Bank of Greece has entered into a series of bilateral and multilateral agreements for the cooperation with supervisory authorities of EU Member States as well as with the authorities of third countries, where Greek banking Groups have presence through branches or subsidiaries.

Most of the multilateral MoUs have been developed on the initiative of the European Central Bank for the cooperation on issues related to the preservation of financial stability and cross border crisis management.
