Resolution Reporting Requirements
CSSF
1. Purpose & Scope
The document defines resolution reporting and notification duties for financial institutions in Luxembourg—specifically those under:
The Single Resolution Board (SRB), responsible for cross-border and systemically relevant entities supervised by the ECB.
The CSSF itself, which oversees entities not covered by the SRB.
Key reporting types include:
SRB Reporting T (Liability Data, Critical Function, Financial Markets Infrastructure, Additional Liability Reports).
EBA Reporting Z, MREL & TLAC Reporting, and Impracticability Notifications—required under both SRB and CSSF oversight.
By January each year, the CSSF informs entities of their specific reporting obligations for the upcoming resolution cycle.
2. Reporting Obligations
A. Entities under SRB’s remit:
Reporting T (Annual, by 31 March / 30 April, depending on the report):
Liability Data Report (LDR): covers groups with significant exposure or critical functions.
Critical Function Report (CFR): identifies high-impact functions across geographies; due 30 April.
FMIR: details on financial market infrastructure; annual, due 30 April.
Additional Liability Report (ALR): temporary data on MREL/TLAC, as relevant.
EBA Reporting Z: annual submission by 30 April covering standard templates.
MREL & TLAC Reporting: quarterly reporting, due in February, May, August, and November, respectively.
Impracticability Notification: required when it is legally impracticable to include contractual bail-in recognition terms—submitted via XBRL, quarterly or semi-annually as applicable.
B. Entities under CSSF’s remit:
EBA Reporting Z: annual, with simplified templates potentially applicable for smaller or simpler institutions; due by 30 April.
MREL & TLAC Reporting: aligned with SRB timing—quarterly submissions with sign-off and checklists, but exemptions may apply.
Impracticability Reports: same expectations as SRB-remit entities for XBRL submission and timing.
3. Technical & Procedural Requirements
Reference Date: All reports (T, Z, MREL/TLAC, impracticability) use data as of 31 December—regardless of entity’s financial year-end.
Currency Reporting:
SRB-remit: exclusively in EUR.
CSSF-remit: in the entity’s capital currency.
Filing Formats & Standards:
XBRL is the required format for most submissions.
ALR and management sign-off documents are delivered in Excel and PDF.
Taxonomies & Versions: Use EBA V3.5 and SRB V9.0.3 (both effective December 2024) for 2025 reports; older versions are not acceptable.
Validation Levels:
Level 1: XBRL format compliance.
Level 2: Business rule consistency.
Level 3: Guidance adherence (e.g., LDR, CFR, FMIR guidelines).
File Naming & Transmission:
Strict naming conventions must be followed.
Files are transmitted to CSSF via secure “COF” channels; TEST and PRODUCTION environments exist, with specific codes for versions.
Resubmissions:
Preliminary submissions are acceptable, but audited revisions must be submitted promptly when available.
Resubmission of historical data is required if errors affect previous periods (1 year for annual, or 4 quarters for quarterly).
4. Practical Guidance & Support
Check latest guidance and taxonomies before filing. SRB maintains up-to-date downloadable documents; CSSF does not define separate structures.
Insolvency Ranking: Always use the latest published ranking annex (for 2025, updated August 2024) when reporting.
Support Contacts:
SRB-remit: via SRB Q&A portal or CSSF agent in the Internal Resolution Team (IRT).
CSSF-remit: contact the assigned CSSF agent.
