For a Strategic SoB, resolution authorities should be able to update the list of criteria for potential acquirers to meet based on section 4.1. and paragraph 19 of these guidelines. The sale process should provide for a smooth execution of a strategic SoB ensuring an open, transparent and non-discriminatory marketing process (marketing requirements), aiming at maximising the price of the sale and identifying any potential conflicts of interest. Said criteria should include a variety of indicators relating to the financial, legal and operational strength of the potential acquirers which should be in relation to the transfer perimeter and not designed to advantage the potential purchasers identified ex-ante. The resolution authority may request plans laying down the integration process of the transfer perimeter by the potential purchaser and highlighting the required capabilities.
