Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1278
of 9 July 2015
amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 laying down implementing technical standards with regard to supervisory reporting of institutions as regards instructions, templates and definitions
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of 26 June 2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 and in particular the fourth subparagraph of Article 99(5), the fourth subparagraph of Article 99(6), the third subparagraph of Article 101(4), the third subparagraph of Article 394(4), the fourth subparagraph of Article 415(3) and the third subparagraph of Article 430(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 specifies the requirements according to which institutions are required to report information relevant to their compliance with Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. Given that the regulatory framework established by Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 is gradually being supplemented and amended in its non-essential elements by the adoption of regulatory technical standards, then Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 needs to be updated accordingly to reflect those rules; to provide further precision in the instructions and definitions used for the purposes of institutions' supervisory reporting.
(2)
In order to ensure a correct and uniform application of the requirements laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014, further precision should be provided to the templates, instructions and definitions used for the purposes of supervisory reporting. Therefore, for reasons of legal clarity, it is appropriate to replace several templates of Annexes I, III and IV and to amend some of the instructions laid down in Annexes II, V, IX and XVII.
(3)
To provide institutions and competent authorities with adequate time to implement the amendments set out in this Regulation, it should apply from 1 June 2015.
(4)
This Regulation is based on the draft implementing technical standards submitted by the European Banking Authority (EBA) to the Commission.
(5)
Given that the necessary amendments to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 do not involve significant changes in substantive terms, in accordance with the second subparagraph of Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council, the EBA has not conducted any open public consultation, considering that it would be disproportionate in relation to the scope and impact of the draft implementing technical standards concerned.
(6)
Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 should be amended accordingly,
