ESMA issued a statement on 24 September 2026 regarding changes to the Euribor panel. Cecabank will withdraw from the panel effective 30 September 2026, marking its final day contributing data to the benchmark.
The announcement relies on the assessment by ESMA and the Euribor College of Supervisors, which concluded that Cecabank's departure does not risk the representativeness of the Euribor benchmark.
This change applies to all regulated entities involved with the Euribor benchmark. ESMA encourages credit institutions active in the Euro unsecured money market to consider joining the Euribor panel.
ESMA will launch a new Union Strategic Supervisory Priority focused on digital innovation starting in 2027. This initiative aims to enhance supervisory capacity regarding new technologies while ensuring investor protection.
