The European Banking Authority has published an updated list of validation rules used in its supervisory reporting frameworks as part of its quarterly review process. The update identifies rules that have been deactivated because of inaccuracies or information technology issues, reactivated, or assigned a different severity status. Competent authorities across the European Union are reminded not to formally validate data submitted under the implementing technical standards and guidelines against rules that have been deactivated. The EBA also released a small validation rules package containing a micro taxonomy package and Data Point Model validation rules update scripts. These components are required from release 4.0 onward for each validation rules update exercise so that amendments are reflected consistently in both the taxonomy and the Data Point Model. From release 4.0 onward, with Data Point Model 2.0 embedding validation rules directly in both the taxonomy and the Data Point Model, the framework supports more consistent implementation and clearer traceability of changes in supervisory reporting.
