The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published a Report comparing how banks test the implementation of their recovery plans through so-called “dry runs”. In a context of heightened uncertainty and the continued need for operational preparedness and resilience to unexpected stress events, the analysis confirms that dry runs are an effective tool to strengthen the operationalisation of recovery plans and enhance institutions’ crisis readiness.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published a Decision harmonising how National Competent Authorities (NCAs) report under the SEPA Regulation. The Decision complements the existing European Commission’s Implementing Regulation which requires all Payment Service Providers (PSPs) to report data on charges for credit transfers and payment accounts, as well as the shares of transactions rejected due to EU sanctions. The Decision streamlines the second step of this reporting process – from the NCAs to the EBA and the European Commission.
