Resolution EP plenary on appointment of the Chair of the Supervisory Board

Commissioner Barnier said: "I welcome the appointment by the Member States of Danièle Nouy as first Chairperson of the Supervisory Board of the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM). Her nomination was approved by the European Parliament last week."

"As Chair of the Supervisory Board of the SSM, Danièle Nouy will play a central role in the Banking Union. She is an excellent choice for the tough job ahead. Building a brand new structure to supervise banks in Europe is a major challenge and Danièle Nouy has all the necessary skills and experience to rise to that challenge, having experience of national banking supervision and European and international coordination at the highest levels.

I am confident that, with Danièle Nouy at the helm, the SSM will develop a truly European supervisory culture, bring together different supervisors' best practices, and address head on any problem with banks' prudential soundness and risks to financial stability. Her role as the new Chairperson also brings valuable gender diversity to the board."

ECB President Mario Draghi said: “The appointment of the Supervisory Board Chair marks an important milestone as the ECB establishes a single supervisory mechanism for banks in the euro area. Mrs. Nouy brings almost 40 years of experience in banking supervision.
