On 8 January 2024, the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) issued a consultation paper on draft implementing technical standards (ITS) regarding the tasks of the collection bodies and the functionalities of the European Single Access Point (ESAP). The draft ITS are intended to enable future users to effectively harness the information on the ESAP.

The purpose of the ESAP is to facilitate access to publicly available information of relevance to financial services, capital markets and sustainability. The ESAP is expected to become operational in July 2026 and will start publishing information no later than July 2027.

The deadline for comments on the consultation is 8 March 2024.

The ESAs will consider the feedback received to the consultation and will submit the draft ITS to the European Commission by 10 September 2024.
