The European Banking Authority (EBA) published its Spring 2026 Risk Assessment Report (RAR), Q1 2026 Risk Dashboard (RDB) and Spring 2026 Risk Assessment Questionnaire (RAQ) results today.

​The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published its 2025 Reports on the annual market and credit risk benchmarking exercises, highlighting continued progress in the consistency and reliability of banks’ internal models across the EU, while identifying areas for supervisory attention as key regulatory reforms approach full implementation.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published its 2025 Annual Report, outlining its main achievements and activities in delivering on its mandates under its Work Programme. In 2025, the EBA focused on streamlining and improving the efficiency of the EU regulatory framework while expanding its supervisory role, particularly under the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA).

The European Banking Authority (EBA) continues to execute on its simplification and efficiency programme. After proposals in April to reduce the reporting burden for banks and for a simpler stress-test in 2027, it publishes today a comprehensive review of the EU bank microprudential, macroprudential and resolution capital framework, including proposals to simplify it. The proposals aim to reduce complexity while preserving banks’ resilience and resolvability as well as authorities’ tools, and to ensure the framework remains focused on emerging and materially evolving risks.

The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today the draft methodology, templates, and template guidance for the 2027 EU-wide stress test. The 2027 exercise introduces significant simplifications to improve efficiency and risk sensitivity, while preserving the robustness and comparability of results. Key changes include a substantial reduction in data requirements, the alignment of information with harmonised supervisory reporting, and the integration of climate risks into the EU-wide stress test. A total of 63 banks from the EU and Norway, including 47 from the euro area, will participate, covering 75% of the EU banking sector. The industry consultation is being launched at an earlier stage than for previous EBA stress tests, to facilitate banks’ preparedness.
