The EBA releases a first draft of the technical package for its 4.0 reporting framework

The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today a draft technical package for version 4.0 of its reporting framework. This publication aims to provide an early version of the 4.0 release given that its reporting obligations will apply as of the first half of 2025. This package, whose final version will be released in December 2024, will facilitate a smoother transition to the new data point model (DPM) semantic glossary and the capabilities of the DPM 2.0 model.

In June 2024, the EBA published its plan for the implementation of DPM 2.0. The draft technical package for version 4.0 published today, marks the transition to DPM 2.0 and to the new glossary, as announced in June.

The draft technical package provides the standard specifications that include the validation rules, the DPM and the XBRL taxonomies to support the following reporting obligations:

• Reporting of information by issuers of asset-referenced tokens (ARTs) and electronic money tokens (EMTs).
• New ITS amending the supervisory reporting framework (COREP templates) to implement the most immediate changes driven by the EU Banking Package (Capital Requirements Regulation - CRR3 and Capital Requirements Directive -CRDVI) published on 19 June in the Official Journal.
• Minor amendments to reporting obligations by class 2 investment firms (COREP templates), in alignment with the CRR3/CRDVI changes.

This draft technical package includes a version of the data dictionary contents in both formats the DPM 1.0 and the new format DPM 2.0.

The  DPM Query Tool has also been updated to reflect this draft release. 

Background and next steps

Last year, the EBA announced the migration to DPM 2.0 methodology and published the related documentation. In June this year, the EBA published the plans for the migration to DPM 2.0 and to the new glossary.

The final version of the technical package for the 4.0 reporting framework will be published in December, and will include the changes suggested by the three ESAs in the Opinion, published on 15 October, on the European Commission’s (EC) rejection of the draft ITS on the registers of information under the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA).

Together with this technical package, the EBA is publishing a set of Q&As providing additional explanations including on the final package to be published in December.
