Line 1: Line 1:
Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation.
A European Union proposal for a regulation to stop the largest banks from engaging in proprietary trading (comparable with the Volcker Rule in the US Dodd-Frank Act).


The proposals for the EU would also give supervisors the power to require those banks to separate certain potentially risky trading activities from their deposit-taking business, if the pursuit of such activities was deemed to compromise financial stability.


EBITDA is designed to compare underlying operating performance over time or between businesses, free from any distortions caused by differing financial structures, tax, or the historical cost of fixed assets.


The proposals are also known as the 'Liikanen rule' or the Barnier-Liikanen rule.

A European Union proposal for a regulation to stop the largest banks from engaging in proprietary trading (comparable with the Volcker Rule in the US Dodd-Frank Act).

The proposals for the EU would also give supervisors the power to require those banks to separate certain potentially risky trading activities from their deposit-taking business, if the pursuit of such activities was deemed to compromise financial stability.


The proposals are also known as the 'Liikanen rule' or the Barnier-Liikanen rule.
