Without prejudice to the powers of competent authorities under Article 104(1), point (j), of Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 (3) lays down, on the basis of Article 430 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, a coherent reporting framework. Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 has been amended several times following the amendments of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 adopted to introduce, further develop or adapt prudential elements.

(2)

The provisions in this Regulation are closely linked, since they deal with institutions’ reporting requirements. To ensure coherence between those provisions, which should enter into force at the same time, and to facilitate a comprehensive view and compact access to them by persons subject to those obligations, it is desirable to include all related implementing technical standards required by Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 in a single Regulation.

(3)

Taking into account the international standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, Regulation (EU) 2019/876 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) amended Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 in a number of aspects, such as the leverage ratio, the net stable funding requirement, requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities, counterparty credit risk, market risk, exposures to central counterparties, exposures to collective investment undertakings, large exposures, and reporting and disclosure requirements. The reporting framework laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 should therefore be revised and the set of templates for the collection of information for supervisory reporting purposes should be updated.

(4)

Regulation (EU) 2019/876 introduced in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 a Tier 1 capital leverage ratio requirement calibrated at 3 %, a range of adjustments to the calculation of leverage ratio exposure, and a leverage ratio buffer requirement for institutions identified as global systemically important institutions (G-SIIs) in accordance with Directive 2013/36/EU. The leverage ratio reporting should therefore be updated to reflect those requirements and adjustments in the exposure calculation.

(5)

Regulation (EU) 2019/876 introduced in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 net stable funding ratio (NSFR) reporting requirements, including simplified requirements. It is therefore necessary to lay down a new set of reporting templates and instructions.

(6)

Regulation (EU) 2019/876 introduced in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 a new supporting factor to be applied to infrastructure projects’ exposures and updated approaches to calculating risk-weighted exposure amounts for collective investment undertakings. It is therefore necessary to lay down, also in accordance with the disclosures framework, new templates and instructions for reporting on credit risk and update the current instructions.

(7)

Regulation (EU) 2019/876 replaced in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 the standardised approach with a more risk sensitive standardised approach for counterparty credit risk (SA-CCR) and a simplified version (the simplified SA-CCR) for institutions that meet predefined eligibility criteria. The original exposure method, though revised, remains available for institutions meeting predefined criteria. It is therefore necessary to add new templates and instructions for reporting on counterparty credit risk and update the current instructions.

(8)

Regulation (EU) 2019/876 replaced in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 the references to ‘eligible capital’ in the calculation of large exposures with references to ‘Tier 1 capital’ and introduced another threshold for reporting of large exposures on a consolidated basis. The large exposures reporting should therefore be updated.

(9)

Regulation (EU) 2019/630 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) introduced in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 a prudential backstop for non-performing exposures (NPEs) imposing a deduction from institutions’ own funds where NPEs are not sufficiently covered by provisions or other adjustments, following a predefined calendar to build up a full coverage over time. That prudential backstop is based on the definitions of ‘non-performing exposure’ and ‘forbearance measures’ laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014. It is therefore necessary to amend templates and instructions to ensure that there is a single definition of ‘non-performing exposure’ and ‘forbearance measures’ for both reporting and prudential backstop purposes. New templates are also necessary for the collection of information for the backstop calculation.

(10)

Regulation (EU) 2019/2033 of the European Parliament and of the Council (6) repeals with effect from 26 June 2026 Chapter 1 of Title I of Part Three, Section 2 (Articles 95 to 98), of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. For this reason, provisions on reporting for groups that consist only of investment firms subject to Articles 95 and 96 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 on an individual basis or a consolidated basis should cease to apply on 26 June 2026.

(11)

In view of the scope of those amendments and for the sake of clarity, it is appropriate to repeal Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 and replace it with this Regulation.

(12)

Regulation (EU) 2020/873 of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) is part of a series of measures to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on institutions across the Union. That Regulation introduced certain amendments to Regulations (EU) No 575/2013 and (EU) 2019/876 that have an impact on supervisory reporting. Those amendments should therefore be reflected in the reporting framework.

(13)

Institutions should start supervisory reporting for the end of second quarter of 2021. However, reporting for the leverage ratio buffer should start from January 2023 as the application of the leverage buffer requirements was postponed to January 2023 by Regulation (EU) 2020/873.

(14)

This Regulation is based on the draft implementing technical standards submitted to the Commission by the European Banking Authority (EBA).

(15)

The EBA has conducted open public consultations on the draft implementing technical standards on which this Regulation is based, analysed the potential related costs and benefits, and requested the advice of the Banking Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council (8), with the exception of the provisions reflecting the amendments of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 by Regulation (EU) 2020/873. The EBA decided that it would have been highly disproportionate to carry out public consultations or a cost-benefit analysis on those provisions as they concern very few rows in reporting templates on solvency and leverage and are not likely to materially affect the costs of reporting. In addition, such public consultation or a cost-benefit analysis would prevent supervisors from the timely collection of relevant data in a coherent and regular manner.

(16)

To provide institutions with sufficient time to prepare for reporting in accordance with this Regulation, it should enter into force on the day following the date of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,
