The following are subject to this Instruction:
For the reporting forms in Annexes 1 and 2, credit institutions and investment firms with a balance sheet size exceeding EUR 1,000 billion.
For the reporting form in Annex 3, all credit institutions. Investment firms are excluded from this exercise, unless they are included in the consolidation perimeter of another institution subject to this data collection.

Article 2 – Consolidation Perimeter
2.1. The reporting is carried out on a consolidated basis, covering all subsidiaries and branches of the concerned institution.
