ECB Asset Quality Review The European Central Bank Favours EVS Above All Other Valuation Standards “Real estate should be valued in line with European Standards EVS-2012 (Blue Book) and other international standards such as the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) guidelines – where a conflict is seen EVS2012 will apply

The ECB preference for EVS EVS are solely concerned with the valuation of real estate, not with accounting, plant and machinery or intangibles. EVS are more risk-sensitive, with special focus on EU banking directives (Capital Requirements, etc.), and special guidance on market rating and risk-related criteria for valuations. Only EVS provide a standard for Mortgage Lending Value and a detailed and comprehensive Application for Valuation for Lending Purposes.
