EBA published its revised Guidelines on internal governance under the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD). The revised Guidelines reflect the changes introduced by CRD VI and form part of the EBA’s broader commitment to simplify the regulatory framework, strengthen proportionality and reduce unnecessary compliance burdens, while safeguarding sound and robust governance across the EU banking sector.

The final Guidelines take into account feedback received from stakeholders during the public consultation and targeted outreach activities. Compared with the consultation paper, the main changes introduced in the final Guidelines include: (i) a reduced level of detail for the mapping of duties and individual statements; (ii) greater proportionality in the provisions applicable to third-country branches; (iii) clearer and simpler provisions on conflicts of interest; and (iv) reduced granularity in the requirements related to monitoring diversity and inclusion.

The guidelines will apply two months after publication in all EU official languages
