EBA and ESAs 2024 DORA dry run exercise – helping financial entities prepare and test ICT third-party service provider registers ahead of January 2025 compliance, including feedback on data quality and reporting processes.
The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published its 2023 Reports on the annual market and credit risk benchmarking exercises. These exercises aim at monitoring the consistency of risk weighted assets (RWAs) across all EU institutions authorised to use internal approaches for the calculation of capital requirements. Regarding market risk, for the majority of participating banks, the results confirm a relatively low dispersion in the initial market valuation (IMVs) of most of the instruments, and a decrease in the dispersion in the value at risk (VaR) submissions compared to the previous exercise. For credit risk, the variability of RWAs remained stable compared with the previous year, but for some asset classes a reduction could be observed in a longer perspective.
