Professor Ayadi presented the main findings of the paper in particular the advantages of the different metrics used in the field of banking regulation at the public hearing with the Chair of the Single Resolution Board on 13 July 2016 in Brussels. Furthermore, she contributed to the assessment of the potential impact of the metrics on the distribution of MREL requirements among European banks. Such an analysis will help ECON Members to better assess the need (i) to amend the current legal framework governing the calculation of MREL requirements and (ii) to align this framework with the international standards agreed upon at FSB level.

Professor Ayadi is a senior expert member of the high-level panel on the banking union in Europe to the Economic and Monetary affairs Committee (ECON) of the European Parliament (http://www.europarl.europa.eu/committees/en/econ/members.html).
