EBA proposes corrections to the adopted technical standards on non-delta risk options

The European Banking Authority (EBA) issued today amendments to the adopted Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) on the treatment of non-delta risk of options in the standardised market risk approach. These RTS were published by the European Commission as Delegated Act on 20 May.

During the legal adoption process of these RTS, The European Commission introduced changes, which have inadvertently altered their meaning. The EBA is, therefore, proposing to amend the text of this Delegated Act to ensure it reflects the intention of the text originally submitted to the European Commission in December 2013.
