EBA publishes indicators from 36 global systemically important institutions (G-SIIs)


Default: Change to:


The EBA published indicators from 36 large institutions in the EU, as provided for in the ITS and Guidelines on disclosure rules applicable to institutions whose leverage ratio exposure measure exceeds 200 billion Euro.


The Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) and Guidelines on disclosure rules define uniform requirements for disclosing the values used during the identification and scoring process of global systemically important institutions (G-SIIs), in line with the internationally agreed standards developed by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) and by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS).

To promote a level playing field in the EU regarding these requirements and to increase transparency on the internal financial market, the current level of disclosure goes beyond the minimum standards required by the BCBS, both in terms of granularity of the disclosed information and applicable scope of institutions. Consequently, some of the group-specific templates published today belong to institutions that did not contribute directly to the BCBS's exercise for global systemically important banks (G-SIBs).

This year's data covers 36 institutions whose leverage ratio exposure measure exceeded 200 billion Euro by the end of 2015. The European Banking Authority (EBA) acts as a central data hub in this disclosure process, thus providing a platform to aggregate data across the EU through a user-friendly excel tool. The EBA will continue to disclose this data on a yearly basis.
