EBA published final draft technical standards on countercyclical buffer disclosure
The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today its final draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) on disclosure of information related to the countercyclical capital buffer (CCB). These RTS will be part of the EU Single Rulebook aimed at enhancing regulatory harmonisation in the EU banking sector. In particular, the use of uniform templates for the disclosure of the CCB will facilitate geographical comparison and ensure transparency of the CCB buffer for all financial institutions across the EU.
