List of supervised banks
The ECB maintains a list of all significant banks under its direct supervision (Part A) and less significant banks under its indirect supervision (Part B). Within Part B, less significant banks classified as "High-impact LSIs" are identified with the designation "(HI)".
The list of supervised entities is updated regularly and reflects all decisions on bank significance that entered into force before the relevant cut-off date.

Introduction to the list (including its legal basis)
Changes in significance status
The ECB reviews the significance status of all banks under European banking supervision every year. It also carries out ad hoc assessments during the year whenever necessary, for instance in the context of the granting of authorisations (licensing), the withdrawal of authorisations, or when changes occur in the structure of a group.
