EBA publishes final revised Guidelines on the supervisory review and evaluation process (SREP) and supervisory stress testing. The guidelines, issued on 26 June 2026, replace earlier versions and aim to improve the efficiency, coherence and effectiveness of EU banking supervision. Key changes include a 30 % reduction in page count, clearer risk taxonomy, integration of ICT risk and ESG factors, and a more risk‑based, proportionate supervisory approach. The revised framework also consolidates guidance on third‑country branches and the operationalisation of the output floor. Authorities must report compliance within two months of the translations, and the new guidelines will apply from 1 January 2027, encouraging earlier implementation in supervisory planning cycles.
