EBA roadmap for the new market and counterparty credit risk approaches
This package of 11 draft technical standards specifies essential aspects of the Internal Model Approach (IMA) under the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) and represents an important contribution to a smooth and harmonised implementation of the FRTB in the EU. The package includes (i) the draft RTS on liquidity horizons for the IMA, which specify how institutions should map risk factors to risk factors categories and subcategories, the currencies that constitute the most liquid currencies for interest rate risk, the currency pairs that constitute the most liquid pairs for foreign exchange (FX) risk and the definition of a small and large capitalisation for equities; (ii) the draft RTS on back-testing and profit and loss attribution (PLA) requirements, which specify the technical elements that institutions should consider where calculating the hypothetical, actual and risk-theoretical changes (HPL, APL and RTPL) in the relevant portfolio’s value for the purpose of the back-testing and the PLA test, as well as the criteria ensuring that the RTPL is sufficiently close to the HPL, the consequences for institutions with desks showing misalignments between RTPL and HPL, the frequency at which the PLA tests should be performed and the formula to be used where aggregating the own funds requirements for market risk for reporting purposes; and (iii) the draft RTS on the criteria for assessing the modellability of risk factors under the IMA, which set out how institutions should determine whether a risk factor is modellable or not, and the frequency of the assessment.
The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today the 2020 EU-wide stress test draft methodology, templates and template guidance, which will be discussed with the industry. The 2020 exercise will assess EU banks' resilience to an adverse economic shock and inform the 2020 Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP). The methodology covers all risk areas and builds on the methodology prepared for the 2018 exercise, while improving some aspects based on the lessons learnt. The preliminary list of institutions participating in the exercise as well as the timeline are also released today.

The Committee of European Banking Supervisors (CEBS) today publishes its guidelines on liquidity buffers following a four-month public consultation period and a public hearing.

Opinion on the elements of strong customer authentication under PSD2
The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today an Opinion on the elements of strong customer authentication (SCA) under the revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2). The Opinion is a response to continued queries from market actors as to which authentication approaches the EBA considers to be compliant with SCA. The Opinion also addresses concerns about the preparedness and compliance of some actors in the payments chain with the SCA requirements that apply as of 14 September 2019.
Consultation paper on Guidelines on loan origination and monitoring
The European Banking Authority (EBA) launched today a consultation on its draft Guidelines on loan origination and monitoring. Learning from the elevated levels of non-performing exposures (NPEs) across the EU in recent years, the draft guidelines aim to ensure that institutions have robust and prudent standards for credit risk taking, management and monitoring, and that newly originated loans are of high credit quality. The draft Guidelines also aim to ensure that the institutions’ practices are aligned with consumer protection rules and AML requirements. The consultation runs until 30 September 2019.
