The book provides a detailed explanation of covered bond fundamentals, including reviews of some of the current European regulatory changes that are bound to have a direct and significant impact on covered bonds, mainly the Commission's CRD IV Proposal, Solvency II and MiFIR.


Chapter III presents an overview of the legislation and markets in 33 countries, which demonstrates the worldwide success and recognition of the asset class. Chapter IV sets out the rating agencies’ covered bond methodologies and, last but not least, Chapter V provides a description of trends in the covered bond market as well as a complete set of covered bond statistics.

ECBC welcomes the broad range of views expressed in this revision of the Fact Book and would like to extend a special thank you to all contributors whose enthusiasm and dedication resulted in this 2012 edition, as well as to the Chairmen of the ECBC Fact Book and Statistics & Data Working Groups, Mr Wolfgang Kälberer and Mr Florian Eichert respectively.

Luca Bertalot, Head of the European Covered Bond Council, said: “As an eagerly anticipated industry publication, this new edition of the Fact Book further expands on the work undertaken in previous years with regards to improving transparency of the covered bond asset class by providing a complete set of macro-level information and an unrivalled statistical database”.
