EBA XBRL Reporting Converter

The EBA XBRL Reporting Converter supports the preparation and transformation of regulatory data into European Banking Authority (EBA)–compliant XBRL formats for supervisory reporting purposes.

EBA supervisory reporting frameworks require institutions to submit data using formally defined XBRL taxonomies, reporting templates, and validation rules. Managing these requirements manually or through framework-specific tooling introduces operational risk, duplication, and unnecessary complexity.

REGREP’s EBA XBRL Reporting Converter supports full supervisory reporting coverage under EBA Framework 4.0 and is designed to be cross-framework compatible, allowing the same reporting logic and data structures to be reused across multiple EBA frameworks, including CRR and IFR, and across future taxonomy updates.

The EBA defines mandatory XBRL taxonomies and validation rules for prudential and supervisory reporting under frameworks including:

• Capital Requirements Regulation & Directive (CRR / CRD)

• Investment Firms Regulation & Directive (IFR / IFPR)

These frameworks are implemented through EBA Framework 4.x, which defines the structure, templates, and technical specifications for supervisory submissions. Competent authorities expect submissions to conform precisely to the applicable taxonomy versions and validation rules for each reporting period.

REGREP’s EBA XBRL Reporting Converter supports all supervisory reports defined under EBA Framework 4.0.

Current coverage includes all 51 reporting templates defined in Framework 4.2, encompassing structural, dimensional, and reference data requirements as specified by the EBA. The converter is designed to remain aligned across subsequent 4.x framework updates, reducing the need for framework-specific reimplementation.

The EBA XBRL Reporting Converter enables firms to:

• Generate EBA-compliant XBRL instance documents for supervisory submission

• Cover all 51 reports defined under Framework 4.2 within the Framework 4.0 family

• Apply a single conversion approach across multiple EBA frameworks

• Align outputs with the correct taxonomy versions and entry points

• Maintain consistency across entities, reporting periods, and jurisdictions

The converter is designed to support repeatable, audit-ready reporting processes, rather than one-off or framework-locked conversions.

Transforms structured regulatory data into XBRL instance documents aligned with EBA technical specifications, including dimensional and contextual requirements.

Supports alignment with applicable EBA taxonomy releases, enabling controlled handling of taxonomy updates across reporting cycles.

Applies EBA-defined validation rules to identify structural and technical issues prior to supervisory submission.

Designed to operate across multiple EBA prudential frameworks by separating reporting logic from framework-specific taxonomy details. This enables reuse of data models and reporting workflows across CRR, IFR, and future EBA framework evolutions.

Maintains traceable links between source data and generated XBRL outputs, supporting internal review, audit, and supervisory enquiries.

The EBA XBRL Reporting Converter operates as a core capability within REGREP’s regulatory reporting infrastructure. It is typically used in combination with:

• Prudential Reporting Engine (IFR / CRR) for calculations and data preparation

• Regulatory data validation and quality controls

• Structured reporting workflows across entities and reporting periods

REGREP does not provide regulatory approval or compliance certification. The converter supports the technical preparation of supervisory reporting outputs in accordance with EBA specifications.
