The EBA ITS on IRRBB reporting provides standardised reporting templates to enhance the comparability, transparency and management of interest rate risk across banks, where all interest-bearing banking book items are in scope.
These standardised templates ensure consistent and comprehensive data submission, allowing competent authorities to facilitate adequate assessment of credit institutions’ IRRBB exposures. Furthermore, the reporting templates include sections for interest rate gap analysis, a detailed breakdown of a Bank’s EVE and NII measures, key assumptions and scenarios, and behavioural adjustments.
The reporting framework ensures enhanced granularity when it comes to the required reporting. This includes:
To ensure a comprehensive and accurate reporting process, there are five sets of regulatory reporting templates for IRRBB. These templates cover the evaluation of IRRBB metrics, breakdown of sensitivity estimates, repricing cash flows, relevant parameters on behavioural modelling and qualitative information. Each set of templates caters to the specific needs of different types of institutions, ensuring that banks can navigate the reporting process effectively.

Specific challenges that necessitate sophisticated modelling techniques and robust data management practices to ensure adequate and compliant IRRBB reporting (depending on the materiality of the positions). These are either auxiliary models whose outputs are utilised as inputs to the main models, or additional metric indicators as required by the regulation.
This short read makes use of several primary references for regulatory returns, which are the EBA Guidelines on IRRBB/CSRBB and the EBA Regulatory technical standards on a standardised and simplified standardised approach.
