TITLE: European Banking Authority Publishes Known Data Point Model Issues List
BODY:
On April 9, 2026, the European Banking Authority (EBA) announced that it will begin publishing on a regular basis a list of known issues related to the data point model (DPM) framework. The list includes information on available workarounds and indicative timelines for resolution.
The initiative aims to improve transparency and support reporting institutions by providing a single reference point for recurring technical questions. The publication forms part of the EBA's broader simplification efforts to identify pragmatic ways to support the implementation of reporting requirements and reduce unnecessary operational burden, while preserving data quality and supervisory objectives. It complements existing communication channels, including validation rule releases, taxonomy updates and question-and-answer processes.
As a first step, the EBA is publishing a list of known issues affecting Pillar 3 disclosures and resolution planning reporting, as these frameworks have generated a particularly high volume of queries from institutions and national competent authorities. For each issue, the published file provides a brief description, the affected artefacts, assessed severity, current status, any available workaround, and the expected release in which the issue is planned to be resolved.
The list will be updated regularly and gradually extended to cover additional reporting and disclosures modules supported by the EBA DPM framework and XBRL taxonomy. Through this phased approach, the EBA aims to provide institutions with timely, clear and practical information, while maintaining the stability of the reporting frameworks. The initial list of known issues is available for download on the EBA website.
