S&P Dow Jones Indices Europe Dashboard

Date 31/07/2018

• European equities posted steady gains in July as last month’s focus on trade tensions and political risk largely gave way to earnings figures, economic data, and central bank guidance. The S&P Europe 350® gained, with nearly all countries contributing positively to returns. 
• Every S&P Europe 350 sector rose this month as Health Care topped the charts. As was the case in most regions, Telecoms performed well. 
• Risk Control offered the highest return among S&P Europe 350 equity strategies this month. Enhanced Value took second place, while Momentum – which has faltered elsewhere – continued to beat the benchmark in Europe.

EBA Sees Progress In The Functioning Of Resolution Colleges In 2017 But Continued Effort Is Needed

Date 31/07/2018

The European Banking Authority published today its first Report on the functioning of resolution colleges. The Report summarises the EBA's assessment of the quality of the colleges' organisation, discussions held and general output. Overall, the Report finds that good progress has been achieved since the introduction of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) in 2015, also considering that most colleges are only in their second year of operation.
