General guidelines on reporting of events of material significance

Finansinspektionen issued these general guidelines to require supervised undertakings to immediately report operational events that jeopardize stability or customer asset protection. The regulations mandate reporting for incidents causing significant financial loss, reputational damage, or inability to meet customer commitments, while explicitly excluding specific financial sectors and ICT-related incidents. The guidelines also require boards to establish internal management procedures and notify authorities of auditor measures or suspected crimes, entering into force on 17 January 2025.
