The European Commission has launched a call for expression of interest for the appointment of members to the Board of Appeal of the three European Supervisory Authorities (EBA, EIOPA and ESMA – the ESAs).

The European Banking Authority (EBA) today launched a public consultation on proposed amendments to its Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS), set out in a Delegated Regulation, on the assignment of risk weights to specialised lending exposures under the Supervisory Slotting Criteria Approach (SSCA). The purpose of the amendments is to update the RTS in light of the changes introduced by the revised Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR 3) and to enhance the risk sensitivity, clarity and usability of the framework. Overall, the RTS aim to ensure a consistent and robust prudential treatment of specialised lending exposures under the SSCA across the EU, supporting sound risk management and financial stability. The consultation runs until 7 August 2026.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today its final Report amending the Guidelines on the application of the definition of default. The Report introduces targeted amendments to better reflect specific aspects of non recourse factoring. It also confirms that the 1% threshold applied to reductions in net present value loss (NPV threshold) in debt restructuring remains appropriate for prudential default recognition.
