Regulatory Event

EBA consulted on amendments to ITS for benchmarking own funds requirements for the 2027 market risk exercise and finalised RTS on material acquisitions, transfers, mergers and divisions under CRD.

Analysis

The EBA advanced two workstreams: revised benchmarking ITS for 2027 market risk and final draft technical standards on material corporate actions under CRD. Both affect banks' internal model reporting and structural change notifications.

Relevance

Market risk benchmarking and material transaction rules directly influence capital adequacy oversight and supervisory approval processes.

Required Action

Action Required

Prepare data and governance frameworks for revised 2027 market risk benchmarking submissions and align M&A supervisory notifications with new CRD standards.

Justification

Changes shape prudential model validation and supervisory scrutiny of structural transactions across EU banks.

Control Commentary

Assess readiness for 2027 market risk benchmarking data changes and update M&A notification procedures to align with final CRD RTS. Engage risk and legal teams.
