The European Banking Authority (EBA) today launched a public consultation on its draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) under the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR3) regarding off-balance sheet items under the standardised approach of credit risk. These RTS provide the criteria that institutions shall use to classify off-balance sheet items, unless explicitly specified in Annex 1 of the CRR. Further, they specify the factors that may constrain the institutions’ ability to cancel the unconditionally cancellable commitments. These RTS are part phase 1 of the EBA roadmap on the implementation of the EU banking package. The consultation runs until 4 June 2024.
