The EBA Publishes Updated Risk Assessment Indicators

The European Banking Authority (EBA) today released an updated list of indicators for risk assessment and risk analysis tools, along with a revised methodological guide. This update does not introduce any additional reporting requirements for institutions or competent authorities. Instead, it clarifies how risk indicators are calculated in EBA publications, enabling users and competent authorities to interpret key banking figures consistently when conducting risk assessments and analyses.

Reflecting the EBA reporting framework version 4.1, the update covers a broad range of indicators on institutions' profitability, solvency and operational risk, among others. It also introduces new sets of risk indicators linked to the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), and investment firms.
