On November 16, 2016, the EBA published for consultation draft amending Implementing Technical Standards to amend the current ITS on supervisory reporting of firms as amended by the ITS on additional monitoring metrics for liquidity reporting. Under the Capital Requirements Regulation, banks are subject to liquidity reporting requirements. The ITS on supervisory reporting include provisions on a firm's liquidity reporting requirements. Additional monitoring metrics for liquidity were added to the ITS in March 2016. The EBA's final draft ITS on those additional monitoring metrics included a maturity ladder templates and instructions which were removed by the European Commission before it adopted the ITS. The European Commission has since requested the EBA to update the maturity ladder in line with the detailed information of liquid assets as set out in the Delegated Act on the Liquidity Coverage Ratio. The EBA's proposed amending ITS are mostly concerned with reintroducing a maturity ladder in line with the reporting requirements provided for in the LCR Delegated Act. The EBA is due to submit the final revised draft ITS in March/April 2017. It is expected that the revised reporting requirements would apply from March 2018. The consultation closes on January 2, 2016.
