EBA publishes 2013 work programme

The EBA published its 2013 work programme on 4 October 2012. The EBA's priority is to develop a single rule book, the key components of which are the technical standards required under the next CRD IV/CRR framework including capital, liquidity, remuneration and leverage ratio rules. The single rule book will provide a critical underpinning to the proposed new Single Supervisory Mechanism and improve the functioning of the EU single market overall.

The EBA will focus its oversight activities on identifying, analysing and addressing key risks in the EU banking sector. Its assessment will include analysing the consistency of outcomes in terms of risk weighted assets (RWAs), the sustainability of banks' business models, and banks' asset quality.
