On May 20, 2026, Slovenia's Ministry of Finance published a proposed law on the resolution of investment firms (Zakon o reševanju investicijskih podjetij) for public consultation. The proposal implements the requirements of Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms. The proposed legislation establishes a comprehensive framework for managing the resolution and recovery of investment firms operating in Slovenia. The law aligns Slovenian regulatory requirements with European Union standards, ensuring consistent approaches to financial stability and investor protection across member states. The directive it implements covers procedures for resolving failing investment firms, establishing recovery plans, and implementing resolution strategies to minimise systemic risk and protect financial stability. The framework applies to investment firms and credit institutions, establishing procedures for their orderly resolution when they face financial difficulties. The Ministry of Finance is accepting public comments on the proposed law until June 3, 2026. The government registration number for this proposal is 2026-1611-0034. According to the legislative timeline, the draft is expected to be prepared by the third quarter of 2026, with government committee review and full government approval targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026. The law is scheduled to enter into force during the fourth quarter of 2026. Stakeholders, including financial institutions, industry representatives, and members of the public, may submit comments through the eUprava portal.
