  • EC adopts Amending Regulation to the RTS for risk weights on immovable property exposures

    10 March 2026
    The European Commission has adopted a Delegated Regulation amending the regulatory technical standards (RTS) set out in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/206. The Amending Regulation is technical in nature and updates the RTS to ensure consistency with changes introduced to the Capital Requirements Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR) by Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 (CRR3). In particular, the amendments: (i) align the references to Article 124 CRR, which have become obsolete following the renumbering and revisions introduced by CRR3 concerning preferential risk weights for exposures secured by immovable property under the Standardised Approach; and (ii) reflect the updated terminology in Article 164 CRR, which now refers to the ability of an authority designated under Article 164(5) to set loss given default (LGD) input floor values, rather than higher minimum LGD values, for exposures located in one or more parts of its territory under the Internal Ratings Based Approach.

    The Delegated Regulation is based on final draft RTS developed by the European Banking Authority and published in December 2025. It will enter into force 20 days after its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union and will be directly applicable in all member states.
