1 October 2025 – Amsterdam / Brussels: The European Banking Authority (EBA) has released its 2025 Work Programme, setting out priorities to strengthen the EU banking sector’s stability, efficiency, and transparency. The programme focuses on implementing Basel III reforms, enhancing the Single Rulebook, and ensuring banks are better prepared for future crises.
A major emphasis is on improving data infrastructure and reporting, including the launch of a new data portal to support risk assessment and transparency. The EBA will also take on new oversight responsibilities under DORA for ICT third-party providers and under MiCAR for significant crypto and e-money token issuers.
Consumer protection and regulatory alignment remain central, with the EBA ensuring a smooth transfer of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing responsibilities to the new EU Anti-Money Laundering Authority.
Through these measures, the EBA aims to foster a stable, innovative, and sustainable financial system, balancing regulatory rigor with the evolving needs of banks and consumers.
