Article 394 (1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR) requires that institutions report every large exposure (defined in Article 392 of CRR as exposures to clients or groups of connected client where its value is equal or exceeds 10 % of the eligible capital of the institution).
Additionally, Article 394 (2) of the CRR requires the reporting of certain largest exposures and Article 5 (a) (12) of the draft Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) on Supervisory Reporting under the CRR require that institutions report information related to exposures to clients and groups of connected clients not considered large exposures in accordance with Article 392 of the CRR, but which have an exposure value larger than or equal to 300 million EUR.
On 26 July 2013 the EBA submitted these draft ITS to the European Commission and published them on its website.
However, it is important to note in this context that, as the formal adoption of the ITS falls on the European Commission, the ITS as published by the EBA, may still be subject to changes.
