EBA: Consultation on technical standards on countercyclical buffer disclosure


Default: Change to:


The EBA launched a consultation on its draft RTS on disclosure of information related to the countercyclical capital buffer. These RTS will be part of the EU Single Rulebook aimed at enhancing regulatory harmonisation in the banking sector.


The EBA has developed a set of draft regulatory technical standards that specify what information institutions must disclose in relation to their requirements for a countercyclical capital buffer (CBB).

These RTS proposes two disclosure templates that harmonise the information available to the general public on the institution-specific CCB and the geographical location of the exposures determining that buffer.

These templates will ensure that institution disclose key information on their compliance with the requirement for a CCB, in accordance with Article 440(1) of the CRR. They will also facilitate the geographical comparison of the amounts that enter the calculation of the countercyclical buffers.

Comments to this consultation can be sent to the EBA by 27 September 2014. A public hearing will take place at the EBA premises on 8 September 2014, from 13:00 to 14:30 UK time.
