The facts

Who files
Institutions that report financial information on a consolidated basis under Article 430(3) or (4) of the CRR: groups that prepare accounts under IFRS, and groups under national accounting rules where the national authority has extended the requirement (Articles 11 and 12). They report to their national competent authority, which passes the data to the EBA (EBA/DC/2021/404). Source
How often
Quarterly for the core statements (F 01.01 to F 19.00); semi-annual for F 30.01 to F 31.02; annual for F 40.01 to F 46.00 and F 47.00; some breakdowns (F 20 to F 26) quarterly only above set thresholds (Articles 11 and 12). Source
Deadline
By close of business on the remittance date: the 15th calendar day after the reference date for monthly data; 12 May, 11 August, 11 November and 11 February for quarterly data; 11 August and 11 February for semi-annual data; 11 February for annual data. A remittance day on a weekend or public holiday moves to the next working day (Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/3117, Article 3). The national authority then sends the data to the EBA within 10 business days for the largest institutions in each Member State and 25 business days for the others (EBA/DC/2021/404, Article 3). Source
Format
xBRL-CSV, XBRL-XML. Firms file in the data exchange format their national authority sets, following the EBA data point model and its validation rules.
