The European Banking Authority published a revised list of validation rules under its Implementing Technical Standards on supervisory reporting, marking those that have been deactivated because they are incorrect or cause IT issues. EU competent authorities are instructed that supervisory data submitted under the ITS should not be formally validated against the deactivated rules. Alongside the updated rule list for reporting framework release 4.0, the EBA released a small validation package containing a micro taxonomy package and scripts to update deactivations in the Data Point Model validation rules, intended to ensure that rule deactivations are applied consistently in both the taxonomy and the DPM for each deactivation exercise.
