ECB: AnaCredit would allow "a more accurate analysis of credit risks, and their potential build-up into systemic risks"

The European Central Bank (ECB) is building a large-scale database that will log "detailed information" on all loans by eurozone banks to firms above a value of €25,000.

The ECB plans to have the Analytical Credit Dataset, or AnaCredit, operational by March 2018, a spokesman told CentralBanking.com. The bank also intends to develop AnaCredit to include loans to "legal persons" later, likely after 2020, and could expand the data it collects.
