In 2024 the SRB made a request to banks for resolution reports[1]with the aim of collecting information for drawing up and implementing resolution plans, including calibrating Minimum Required Eligible Liabilities (MREL) targets from [115] banking groups in scope of the exercise.
For 2025, the SRB once again highlights the importance of high quality, complete and timely data submissions. The ability to provide the necessary data to support the implementation of the resolution strategy, is a key resolvability issue, to be adequately considered by banks’ top management. To ensure banks meet the reporting deadlines (see timeline below), the SRB recommends that all banks implement the following measures:
To support high quality and complete data, the resolution reports should be submitted in line with the published guidance, with validation checks performed by the bank ensuring, among others, reconciliation with its FINREP and COREP regulatory reports (where applicable) as detailed in the List of additional data checks below.
Banks should ensure that they have the necessary IT processes in place to facilitate a timely, controlled and robust reporting process generating consistent and reliable results.
Data quality and availability on time are key items to consider within the resolvability assessment. In this context, the SRB can consider the failure to comply with the information requirements as an impediment to resolvability, potentially significant. It is therefore important that the quality of and deadlines for the resolution reporting submissions are respected.
The SRB, in collaboration with the National Resolution Authorities (NRAs), is starting its annual Resolution Reporting Data Collection exercise. During the 2025 edition, the collection will be based on data as at 31 December 2024. The process will integrate lessons learned from the previous exercises and take into account the feedback received from NRAs as well as the industry.
This year, the SRB has voluntarily left most of the 2024 data request unchanged. In the case of the Additional Liability Report, the SRB has removed the data request for reporting on “Daisy Chains” as this is now included in the EBA 3.5 reporting framework for MRELTLAC reporting. The aim is to minimise the reporting burden on banks, in light of the changes expected from an ongoing overhaul by the EBA of the reporting obligations for resolution reporting. These proposed changes to the ITS are expected to apply as of reference date 31-12-2025.
Nevertheless, the SRB retains the flexibility to request additional information wherever and whenever it deems necessary to do so.
As concerns the reporting perimeters, (Sub)-Consolidated views are based on the prudential or resolution scopes of consolidation, whereas Resolution Groups are to be defined by Internal Resolution Teams, in collaboration with the respective institutions.

Overview of SRB Resolution Reporting Requirements for 2025
The SRB is responsible for centralising resolution reporting for banks under its remit, before these are transferred to the European Banking Authority (EBA).
Note that the reports listed below will be collected by the SRB from NRAs exclusively in XBRL format. As was the case in previous collections, NRAs will communicate banks’ reporting requirements, as determined in collaboration with the SRB.

The SRB has highlighted the overlap between the EBA and the SRB reporting requirement. Where an SRB Replacement Report exists (e.g. Z 02.00 is replaced by T 01.00), ONLY the replacement report should be sent by the bank (T 01.00).
Where no SRB Replacement Report exists (e.g. Z 10.01), then the Z report needs to be sent (if requested by the NRA/SRB from the reporting entity).
With the exception of T99.00, the "Other SRB Liability templates" should only be filled when explicitly requested by the NRA/SRB (granular reporting of POE files).
The reporting deadline for the LDR is 31/03/2025; for all other reports 30/04/2025.
Below are links to the Guidance documents for SRB-originated resolution reports:
Data Quality
The SRB has elaborated additional data checks (referred to commonly as Level 3 checks), which aim to enhance the quality of resolution data reported in accordance with the Commission Implementing Regulations 2018/1624 and 2022/365, as extended by the SRB Guidance published above. The SRB applies these checks alongside other qualitative checks on data received. The list below may be updated by the SRB as needed. The SRB reserves the right to run additional data checks, not covered in the list below, on a case-by-case basis.
The SRB strongly encourages reporting entities subject to resolution reporting requirements to apply these data checks prior to submitting data to NRAs.
SRB Taxonomy Extension
The SRB’s taxonomy publication represents an SRB extension to the EBA 3.2 Reporting Framework. This extension contains minor changes to the EBA taxonomy and validation rules which the SRB deems necessary to facilitate the data collection in XBRL format in 2025:
Expand the current EBA entry point RESOL to the 4 SRB entry points (LDR, CFR, FMIR and CIR);
Improve data quality and data collection efficiency by expanding the list of Validation rules and modifying certain existing validation rules.
Banks are reminded that they are expected to reflect both the EBA 3.2 XBRL taxonomy (available on the EBA website) and the SRB taxonomy extension (see below) when building their XBRL reporting systems for 2025.

These files pass the Level 1 & Level 2 data validations but have not been configured to pass the Level 3 checks described in the Guidance documents.
All values stored in the XBRL facts are fictitious.
MREL_TLAC quarterly reporting
The SRB will collect quarterly MREL_TLAC reports, in line with the EBA ITS on disclosure and reporting on MREL and TLAC. This covers data mainly on eligibility under the MREL and TLAC framework such as (a) amounts, (b) composition and maturity, (c) creditor ranking and (d) contract-specific information. The SRB will use information to set and monitor compliance with MREL targets. Banks are therefore expected to deliver these reports to NRAs in line with the reporting requirements stipulated in the ITS. Questions on MREL_TLAC disclosure and reporting should be raised directly with the EBA or with the NRA responsible for the reporting entity.
Additional Liability Data Collection (Reporting in Excel format!!)
In addition to the SRB-specific MREL/TLAC report outlined above, the SBR has decided to request annually –on a case-by-case basis- complementary information that is necessary for setting MREL. In particular, such information is requested from resolution groups with a) Multiple Point of Entry strategy or b) mortgage credit institutions under certain conditions to identify interconnections within the group.
The data request for the Additional Liability Report is reflected in a dedicated reporting template and related Guidance to be used for the 2025 data collection:
