On August 6, 2026, the Banking Agency of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBA) published operational guidelines for the continuation of business operations during bank restructuring. The guidelines, referenced as U.O.-49-01/26 and dated July 27, 2026, establish procedures and requirements for banks undergoing restructuring to maintain operational continuity. The guidelines address the operational framework that restructuring banks must follow to ensure uninterrupted service delivery to customers and stakeholders during the restructuring process. These operational directives are designed to provide clarity on permissible activities, compliance obligations, and governance requirements for banks in restructuring status. The guidelines establish standards for how restructuring banks should manage their day-to-day operations while subject to enhanced regulatory oversight by the FBA. The publication reflects the FBA's commitment to maintaining financial system stability and protecting depositors and other market participants during periods of institutional restructuring. The guidelines apply to all banks operating within the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina that are subject to restructuring measures or orders issued by the FBA. The document provides a comprehensive operational framework that banks must implement to comply with regulatory requirements during their restructuring period. The FBA has made the guidelines available in PDF format for download from its official website, enabling banks and other stakeholders to access and review the full operational requirements. Banks are expected to implement these guidelines immediately upon publication and ensure full compliance with all specified operational procedures and requirements.
