EU member states outside of the euro area can also participate on a voluntary basis, as was the case of <a href="/wiki/Bulgaria" title="Bulgaria">Bulgaria</a> as of late 2023. European Banking Supervision was established by Regulation 1024/2013 of the Council, also known as the <b>SSM Regulation</b>, which also created its central (albeit not ultimate) decision-making body, the <a href="/wiki/ECB_Supervisory_Board" class="mw-redirect" title="ECB Supervisory Board">ECB Supervisory Board</a>. </p><p>Under European Banking Supervision, the ECB directly supervises the larger banks that are designated as Significant Institutions.

As of late 2022, the ECB directly supervised 113 Significant Institutions in the 21 countries within its geographical scope of authority, representing around 85% of the banking system's total assets (excluding financial infrastructures that are designated as LSIs such as <a href="/wiki/Euroclear" title="Euroclear">Euroclear</a> in Belgium, <a href="/wiki/Banque_Centrale_de_Compensation" class="mw-redirect" title="Banque Centrale de Compensation">Banque Centrale de Compensation</a> in France, or <a href="/wiki/Clearstream" title="Clearstream">Clearstream</a> in Germany and Luxembourg).<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>European Banking Supervision represents the initial and so far most complete component of the broader <a href="/wiki/Banking_union" class="mw-redirect" title="Banking union">banking union</a>, a project initiated in 2012 to integrate banking sector policy in the euro area.

Shortly after the creation of the <a href="/wiki/European_Monetary_Union" class="mw-redirect" title="European Monetary Union">monetary union</a> in 1999, a number of observers and policy-makers warned that the new monetary architecture would be incomplete, and therefore fragile, without at least some coordination of supervisory policies among euro members.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The first supervisory measure put in place at the EU level was the creation of the <a href="/wiki/Lamfalussy_process" title="Lamfalussy process">Lamfalussy Process</a> in March 2001.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It involved the creation of a number of committees in charge of overseeing regulations in the financial sector.
