The National Bank of Belgium simplifies the periodic quantitative reporting requirements for Belgian credit institutions engaged in proprietary trading by introducing limited reporting obligations for institutions meeting specific de minimis thresholds. Institutions with trading volumes below 1.5% and related risks below 0.5% are exempt from full quantitative reporting, submitting only specific significance threshold tables and internal VaR data if available. The qualitative compliance report is integrated into the existing effective management report structure, while specific sensitivity and holding period data requirements have been removed or modified. This circular replaces NBB_2022_20 and applies to credit institutions collecting deposits or issuing debt instruments covered by the Belgian deposit protection system.
