The Capital Requirements Directive IV (or CRD IV for short) aims to strengthen the regulation of the banking sector within the European Union (EU). The goal is to enhance the stability and resilience of the financial system through stringent capital requirements, improved risk management, and increased transparency.

Does it affect me?
If you fall into one of the following categories, you may well be in scope:
- EU credit institutions and investment firms
- Non-EU credit institutions operating within the EU
- Entities that are part of a financial conglomerate with significant EU operations.
What do I need to do?
Ensure your firm is fully aware of its obligations under CRD IV. This includes maintaining adequate capital reserves, conducting regular stress tests and adhering to the specified liquidity coverage and leverage ratios. It's essential to follow the European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines for reporting and compliance. Ensure all relevant data is accurately collected, validated, and reported in accordance with the prescribed formats.
What's the deadline?
If your business is affected, then hopefully you're already complying with the CRD IV requirements. Reporting deadlines can vary based on the type and size of your institution. Quarterly reports are typically due within 45 days of the quarter-end in an XBRL format. It's crucial to stay informed of specific deadlines and requirements that apply to your firm to ensure timely compliance.
