UBPartner delivers full support for the new EBA 4.2 taxonomy

What happened

On 25 November 2025, the European Banking Authority (EBA) released the final technical package for Reporting Framework 4.2.
This release completes the rollout of DPM 2.0 and the updated semantic glossary, improving consistency, comparability, and transparency across EU regulatory reporting.

What’s included in EBA 4.2

BA 4.2 introduces major updates across several reporting modules:

● Full migration to DPM 2.0 and the updated semantic glossary for all domains (except DORA, scheduled for version 4.3).

● Instant Payments reporting for payment service providers (PSPs), including fee disclosures and rejected transaction statistics.

● Updates to resolution planning reporting requirements.

● New Operational Risk (COREP OF) templates under CRR3 / CRD6.

● Changes to the reporting of MREL decisions from national authorities to the EBA.

● Adjustments to market and FX risk reporting for banks using the Alternative Standardised Approach (ASA).
