FRANKFURT (Reuters) - The European Central expects euro zone with high levels of unpaid to submit "ambitious and realistic" plans to bring them down, it said on Monday, as it published guidelines on non-performing (NPL).

"These plans should be ambitious and realistic," the euro zone's top supervisor said on its website after seeking industry feedback on the guidelines.

"Regarding enhanced disclosures on NPLs, to ensure consistency and comparability the guidance should be implemented from the 2018 reference dates onwards."
