The circular establishes immediate prudential expectations for the quality of reported data and internal organization for specified Belgian financial entities, including credit institutions, insurance companies, and payment institutions. It mandates compliance with six data quality dimensions (accuracy, reliability, completeness, consistency, plausibility, and timeliness) and requires institutions to implement robust governance, adequate human resources, and appropriate technical capacities. Institutions must conduct a self-assessment against these expectations, which accredited statutory auditors must incorporate into their 2017 year-end report, with initial verification of documents occurring during the assessment of biannual reports on 30 June 2018.
