EBA publishes list of data point model issues to improve transparency

The European Banking Authority (EBA) announced that it will begin publishing a list of known issues related to the data point model (DPM) framework on a regular basis. The list will include information on available workarounds and indicative timelines for resolution.

This initiative aims to improve transparency and support reporting institutions by providing a single reference point for recurring technical questions. It is part of the EBA’s broader efforts to simplify reporting processes, reduce operational burdens, and maintain data quality and supervisory objectives.

The publication complements existing communication channels, including validation rule releases, taxonomy updates, and Q&A processes. It reflects the EBA’s commitment to supporting high-quality, consistent, and efficient supervisory and resolution reporting across the EU.

Initially, the EBA is publishing a list of known issues affecting Pillar 3 disclosures and resolution planning reporting, which have generated many queries. Each entry includes a description, affected artefacts, severity, current status, available workarounds, and the planned resolution release.

The list will be updated regularly and expanded to cover additional reporting modules supported by the EBA DPM framework and XBRL taxonomy. This phased approach aims to provide timely, clear, and practical information to institutions while maintaining framework stability.
