The European Banking Authority (EBA) has announced the launch of its 2025 EU-wide transparency exercise, aimed at enhancing transparency and market discipline across the EU financial system. The exercise complements banks' own Pillar 3 disclosures under the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD) and will cover data from over 100 major EU banks, including capital positions, financial assets, risk exposures, sovereign exposures and asset quality, spanning Q3 2024 to Q2 2025. The results, to be published in December alongside the EBA's risk assessment report, will be based solely on supervisory reporting data, ensuring no additional burden on banks. The EBA will also provide interactive tools for data comparison across time, jurisdictions and individual banks.
