NOTE

The Operational Risk Demonstration – DRO, document code 5050, whose normative basis is Circular No. 3,979, of January 30, 2020, reflects the prudential regulation provided for in the normative framework applicable to operational risk. Instruction Normative BCB – IN BCB No. 33, of October 29, 2020, aims to present, in a synthetic manner, the guidelines for filling out the document, which consolidates information on operational losses, provisions, and passive contingencies, as of the calculation reference date.

2. Resolution BCB No. 556, of April 1, 2026, amended Circular No. 3,979, of 2020. In light of this, it is necessary to make adjustments to Instruction Normative BCB No. 33, of 2020, the Filling Instructions, and the Layout of the DRO in order to align them with the provisions of Circular No. 3,979, of 2020.

3. This Instruction Normative aims to implement the following changes:

I - postponement, to June 1, 2027, of the deadline for mandatory submission of the DRO, by institutions classified in Segment 3 – S3, in accordance with CMN Resolution No. 4,553, of January 30, 2017, and by institutions classified as Type 3 classified in S3, in accordance with BCB Resolution No. 436, of November 28, 2024;

II - revocation of art. 5 of Instruction Normative BCB No. 33, of 2020, which deals with the requirement to identify the business unit where the loss occurred;

III - alteration of art. 7 of Instruction Normative BCB No. 33, of 2020, to meet the requirements for requesting data disposal and communicating information correction to the operational risk database, as well as the requirements for establishing, by the Central Bank, the criteria for relevance; and

IV - changes in Chapters 2, 8, 9, and 10 of the Filling Instructions and Layout of the DRO.

4. Decree No. 10,411, of June 30, 2020, regulates the conduct of regulatory impact analysis – AIR as a prerequisite for the issuance of normative acts. However, in its article 4, the aforementioned decree establishes the hypotheses for exemption from conducting an AIR. This Instruction Normative falls under the hypotheses provided for in items II and IV, namely: II - Normative act intended to regulate rights or obligations defined in a hierarchically superior norm that does not allow, technically or legally, different regulatory alternatives; and IV - Normative act that aims to update or revoke norms considered obsolete, without alteration of merit.

5. As described in paragraphs 2 and 3, the changes being promoted both in IN BCB No. 33, of 2020, and in the Filling Instructions and Layout of the DRO result from the publication of Resolution No. 556, of 2026, which rendered some provisions of the aforementioned IN BCB and other guidelines obsolete, which justifies the classification of this IN BCB under items II and IV of art. 4 of the aforementioned Decree.

6. In view of the foregoing, we understand that the issuance of this Instruction Normative BCB is exempt from conducting an AIR.
