Prudential reporting covers the regulatory submissions banks make to demonstrate capital adequacy, liquidity, and risk management to the EBA, ECB, PRA, and other competent authorities. This section explains the core templates and frameworks – COREP for capital, FINREP for financial reporting, LCR and NSFR for liquidity, large exposures, IRRBB, and Pillar 3 disclosures. You’ll also find practical guides to ICAAP/ILAAP, MREL, the CRR3 changes landing in 2026, and ongoing EBA reporting framework updates (4.x DPM packages). Articles are aimed at reporting teams at banks and credit institutions, with step-by-step explanations of what to file, when, and what supervisors actually look for. Start with the COREP reporting guide or the FINREP guide if you’re new to prudential reporting.
