The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published its third mandatory Basel III monitoring Report which assesses the impact that the EU implementation of the Basel III framework will have on EU banks at the full implementation date, i.e. 2033. The additional impact considers the application of all EU requirements, as reflected in the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR3), i.e. Pillar 2 requirements, and all EU specific capital buffers. In terms of minimum required capital, the impact has further decreased in relation to the previous reference date of December 2022. The impact is minimal in terms of estimated Tier 1 capital shortfall, while the total capital shortfall is estimated at EUR 5.1 billion.
