The EBA Releases Final Technical Package For Its 4.1 Reporting Framework To Support Identification And Assessment Of Crypto Asset Providers And The Pillar 3 Data Hub

The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published the final technical package for version 4.1 of its reporting framework. This package will support the assessment and identification of significant crypto asset providers. It will also support the centralisation of institutions’ prudential disclosures in the EBA Pillar 3 data hub, which shall facilitate access and usability of this information to all users, including institutions. This framework will apply as of the second half of 2025.

The draft technical package provides the standard specifications which include the validation rules, the data point model (DPM) and the XBRL taxonomies to support the following reporting obligations:

• Pillar 3 templates included in the comprehensive Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) on Pillar 3 disclosures, for the purpose of the Pillar 3 data hub.
• Own initiative guidelines on reporting of data that competent authorities will need for the purpose of their supervisory tasks and for significance assessment (MiCAR reporting Guidelines).
• Integration of Instant Payments reporting ITS into DPM and taxonomy
• A series of validation rules have been added to the ESG ad-hoc data collection module.

Background and Next steps

A draft version of the technical package for the 4.1 reporting framework was published at the end of March 2025. The final version published today includes corrections and addresses the feedback provided from the revision of the draft technical package by various stakeholders.

In June 2024, the EBA published its plan for the implementation of DPM 2.0. The draft technical package for version 4.1 published today, continues the transition to DPM 2.0 and to the new glossary, as announced in June. This draft technical package includes a version of the data dictionary contents in both formats the DPM 1.0 and the new format DPM 2.0.

The FAQs published in December 2024 providing additional explanations on the transition to DPM 2.0 and a new glossary period remain a good source of information. In addition, the EBA is providing a presentation explaining the use of DPM-XL language for validation rules
