On 9 September 2026, the European Banking Authority (EBA) published its response (dated 8 September 2026) to the European Commission’s decision not to endorse the draft regulatory technical standards (RTS) amending Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 241/2014 on the timing for the application for prior permission to reduce own funds and eligible liabilities instruments under Articles 78 and 78a of the Capital Requirements Regulation. The EBA states that it will not resubmit a revised draft of the amending RTS. As suggested by the Commission, it will instead pursue a more comprehensive review of Delegated Regulation 241/2014 at a later stage.
