Abstract
The present paper discusses some recent and current challenges for the banking system in the European Union (EU). While Section 1 develops on its overall robustness before the onset of the pandemic crisis and briefly overviews the regulatory and supervisory responses to preserve its stability amidst that crisis, Section 2 focuses on two challenges relating to potential threats to banking stability in the EU: non-performing loans and negative central bank interest rates. Section 3 addresses then the challenges linked to EU regulatory developments in the fields of sustainable and digital finance. Finally, Section 4 contains a final assessment and the concluding remarks.

期刊介绍:
The mission of the European Business Law Review is to provide a forum for analysis and discussion of business law, including European Union law and the laws of the Member States and other European countries, as well as legal frameworks and issues in international and comparative contexts. The Review moves freely over the boundaries that divide the law, and covers business law, broadly defined, in public or private law, domestic, European or international law. Our topics of interest include commercial, financial, corporate, private and regulatory laws with a broadly business dimension. The Review offers current, authoritative scholarship on a wide range of issues and developments, featuring contributors providing an international as well as a European perspective. The Review is an invaluable source of current scholarship, information, practical analysis, and expert guidance for all practising lawyers, advisers, and scholars dealing with European business law on a regular basis. The Review has over 25 years established the highest scholarly standards. It distinguishes itself as open-minded, embracing interests that appeal to the scholarly, practitioner and policy-making spheres. It practices strict routines of peer review. The Review imposes no word limit on submissions, subject to the appropriateness of the word length to the subject under discussion.
