EBA finalizes 4.3 reporting for TCBs, AMLA risk data
The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published the final technical package for version 4.3 of its reporting framework. This package implements new reporting requirements for Third-Country Branches (TCBs) and supports risk assessment data collection by the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA).
New reporting obligations detailed
The final technical package provides standard specifications, including validation rules, the data point model (DPM), and XBRL taxonomies.
These support two key reporting obligations.
Firstly, the final draft Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) cover the supervisory reporting of Third-Country Branches (TCBs) in accordance with Article 48l(1) of the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD), with a first reference date of 31 March 2027.
Secondly, the package introduces DPM and taxonomy components for AMLA risk assessment reporting.
This supports the methodology to identify obliged entities that will fall under the direct supervision of the Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA), with a first reference date of 31 December 2026.
Enhancing usability and transparency
To simplify and improve the usability of its reporting framework, the EBA also published a new Glossary Usage Exploration file.
This file provides a structured, user-friendly view of glossary content and its use across the framework, making concepts and their relationships within the DPM easier to navigate.
This facilitates interpretation of requirements and supports consistent understanding.
The final package incorporates feedback from stakeholders, including industry representatives, received after the draft version was published on 17 April 2026.
A targeted 'hotfix' may be issued at the end of September for critical clarifications.
