The European Banking Authority released the final technical package for version 4.4 of its reporting and disclosure framework on 12 October 2026. This package includes updates on IFRS 18 reporting, Pillar 3 ESG disclosures, and other technical amendments.

The EBA published a Final Report proposing draft amendments to the Regulatory Technical Standards concerning prudential requirements for central securities depositories and designated credit institutions on 12 October 2026. These amendments respond to changes introduced by the Central Securities Depositories Regulation 'Refit'.

The updates apply to central securities depositories and designated credit institutions that provide banking-type ancillary services. The amendments allow banking CSDs to offer such services to other CSDs.

The material does not specify any deadlines, transitional periods, or exemptions related to these updates.
