EU amending technical standards published for specifying the data collection for the 2025 benchmarking exercise

The Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/379 has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union. The EU Capital Requirements Directive requires competent authorities to conduct an annual assessment of the quality of internal approaches used for the calculation of own funds requirements. To assist competent authorities in this assessment, the European Banking Authority calculates and distributes benchmark values to competent authorities that allows a comparison of individual institutions' risk parameters. These benchmark values are based on data submitted by institutions as laid out in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/2070 which specifies the benchmarking portfolios, templates, and definitions to be used as part of the annual benchmarking exercises. Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/379 amends the implementing technical standards set out in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/2070, replacing the existing annexes IV, V, VI, VII, and X. It will enter into force on 1 April.
