On July 2, 2026, Slovenia's Ministry of Finance published a proposed amendment to the Law on Changes and Amendments to the Law on the Resolution and Compulsory Winding-Up of Banks (ZRPPB-1C). The proposed legislation implements the requirements of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (Directive 2014/59/EU), which establishes a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms across the European Union. The amendment addresses the transposition of EU requirements into Slovenian law, ensuring that the country's bank resolution and winding-up procedures align with the directive's provisions. The proposed act covers mechanisms for managing failing banks and investment firms, including recovery planning, resolution tools, and procedures for compulsory winding-up. The legislation applies to all credit institutions and investment firms operating in Slovenia and is significant for maintaining financial stability and depositor protection within the Slovenian banking system. The Ministry of Finance has made the draft legislation available for public consultation. Stakeholders, including financial institutions, industry associations, and members of the public, may submit comments until August 3, 2026. The government aims to present the proposal to the government board by the fourth quarter of 2026, with adoption expected in the first quarter of 2027. The act is scheduled to enter into force in the first quarter of 2027. **Reference:** eUprava - Predlogi predpisov (Proposed Legislation Portal): https://e-uprava.gov.si/
