The European Banking Authority (EBA) has issued a discussion paper to gather public input on key performance indicators (KPIs) for Taxonomy disclosures under Article 8 of the Taxonomy Regulation. Published on 1 July 2026, the paper invites comments until 12 August 2026 and is part of a broader effort to simplify and improve the usability of information disclosed by credit institutions and investment firms. The EBA proposes to streamline the Fees and Commission KPI, Trading Book KPI, Off‑balance‑sheet exposures KPI for credit institutions and the ‘other services’ KPI for investment firms. It also seeks to align grandfathering provisions for financial instruments with the EU Green Bond Regulation, clarify group‑level disclosures, and address how operational expenditure KPIs are treated in financial undertakings’ calculations. The EBA, EIOPA and ESMA are coordinating parallel consultations; all ESAs will submit advice to the European Commission in October 2026. A public webinar will be held on 16 July.
