On 21 April 2026, the European Commission (Commission) published a draft Delegated Regulation amending the Capital Requirements Regulation as regards temporary targeted operational relief measures and targeted multipliers for the calculation of an institutions’ own funds requirements for market risk.
The draft delegated act follows a call for evidence that the Commission issued and introduces temporary targeted amendments to the own funds requirements for market risk. The amendments regard both the alternative internal model approach and the standardised approaches. In addition, the draft delegated act introduces an overall multiplier to the market risk own funds requirements.
The Commission welcomes feedback on the draft delegated act. The deadline for comments is 19 May 2026 (midnight Brussels time).
Commission adoption of the draft delegated act is planned for Q2 2026.
