Viimatinimetatute puhul ootab nõukogu, et komisjon avaldaks suunised, mis tuginevad järgmistele põhimõtetele: vahetegemine tugevate ja raskustes olevate pankade vahel; selliste meetmete vältimine, mille tulemusel pangad hoiduksid erakapitali kaasamisest, eelkõige dividende ja riikliku sekkumise hinda käsitleva poliitika osas; selle tagamine, et meetmed vastaksid ühisele eesmärgile, mis näeb ette reaalmajanduse tegeliku rahastamise pankade poolt; samuti lepiti kokku, et probleemideta pankadel ei ole vaja esitada restruktureerimiskava Euroopa Komisjonile, kes vastutab abi kasutamise kontrollimise eest.
