March 10 (Reuters) - Polish state-owned lender PKO BP
plans further bonds issues to meet MREL requirements, the bank's
chief financial officer said on Friday.
"We are planning further issues, which will ultimately allow
us to meet 100% of these (MREL) requirements," Marcin Eckert
said.
MREL (Minimum Required Eligible Liabilities) is a European
banking regulation intended to ensure that banks have sufficient
liabilities to help prevent taxpayers from bearing the burden of
any bank bailouts.
