The EBA publishes its 2026 Work Programme and takes action for a more efficient regulatory and supervisory framework in the EU
The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today its Work Programme outlining the key priorities and initiatives for 2026. Besides focusing on three key priorities, the EBA’s work will aim at strengthening the simplicity and efficiency of the regulatory and supervisory framework for banks and financial entities in the EU, in close cooperation with the relevant EU and non-EU stakeholders. In this respect, the EBA launched a comprehensive assessment of the framework, and decided to engage in 21 actions to enhance its efficiency. The 2026 Work Programme includes specific actions for next year for each of the four areas under review. The EBA will report on a regular basis on the implementation of all the recommendations.
