THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms, and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 136(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 specifies in its Annex III, the correspondence of the relevant credit assessments issued by an external credit assessment institution (ECAI) to the credit quality steps set out in Section 2 of Chapter 2 of Title II of Part Three of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (mapping).
(2) Since the adoption of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 additional credit rating agencies have been registered or certified in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council. Furthermore, one of the ECAIs for which Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 provided a mapping has been deregistered. Given that Article 136(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 requires the specification of mappings for all ECAIs, it is necessary to amend Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 to provide mappings for the newly registered or certified ECAIs, and to remove the mapping for the deregistered ECAI.
(3) This Regulation is based on the draft implementing technical standards submitted by the European Banking Authority, the European Securities and Markets Authority and the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority jointly (the European Supervisory Authorities) to the Commission.
(4) The European Supervisory Authorities have conducted open public consultations on the draft implementing technical standards on which this Regulation is based, analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the opinion of the Banking Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council, the Securities and Markets Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1095/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council, and the Insurance and Reinsurance Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1094/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
(5) Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1 Amendment to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799
Annex III to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2 Entry into force

Following the latest amendments, by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/634, to Annex III to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799, the quantitative and qualitative factors underpinning the credit assessments of some mappings in Annex III to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1799 have changed. In addition, some ECAIs have extended their credit assessments to new market segments, resulting in new rating scales and new credit rating types. It is therefore necessary to update the mappings of the ECAIs concerned.

Since the adoption of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/634, another credit rating agency has been registered in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council. As Article 136(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 requires the specification of mappings for all ECAIs, it is necessary to provide a mapping for that newly registered ECAI. The credit assessments applied by the newly registered ECAI are based on the same methodology as that applied by its parent company, a third country ECAI for which a mapping had already been established in Annex III to Impl
