      Background
      European Union (EU) banks face a whole range of data reporting obligations,
      including for statistical, resolution and prudential information.

      not how the actual reporting process is to be carried out.

      submitted by reporting agents to NCBs.

    • This arrangement dates back to when the ECB was set up in 1998 and was justified
      at the time, as it meant that statistical reporting could be founded on well-established
      national reporting frameworks.

      The scope of the IReF
      The IReF seeks to integrate existing ESCB statistical data requirements for banks as
      far as possible into a single, standardised reporting framework applicable across the
      euro area.

    • The feasibility of aligning the IReF
      more closely with the Financial Reporting (FINREP) requirements applicable at solo
      level11 is also being assessed.
    • Some NCBs have
      developed an integrated reporting framework for investment funds (covering both
      MMFs and non-MMFs).
    • The Eurosystem reviewed the results of the CBA to identify optimal features for
      banks, the Eurosystem and its users.
    • This time frame will give reporting agents and the Eurosystem enough lead time to
      prepare the legal and technical framework without unduly delaying the expected
      reduction in the reporting burden.
