3.2. Subject institutions submit the information to the General Secretariat of the Prudential Control and Resolution Authority using year-end accounting data expressed in euros.

3.3. Regarding Annex 3:
The data collected in Annex 3 are to be filled in by total remuneration bands of 500,000 euros for total remunerations between 1 million euros and 5 million euros. Beyond that, total remunerations are reported by total remuneration bands of 1 million euros.

The data are submitted in a separate form for each Member State in which the group operates and where personnel members whose remuneration exceeds 1 million euros work.
Annex 4 is to be filled in for each total remuneration band of one million euros.
Data concerning personnel members whose remuneration exceeds 1 million euros who perform professional activities for legal entities present in different States party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (for example, both for the parent company and at the subsidiary level, when the subsidiary is established in another EEA State) or who perform professional activities in a branch located in an EEA host State must be reported in the specific form for the EEA State party where they primarily perform their professional activities. Data concerning personnel members performing professional activities both inside and outside the EEA must be reported in the specific form for the EEA State party if they primarily perform their professional activities within the EEA. A reporting form is submitted per remuneration band of 1 million euros. Institutions subject to this instruction, when publishing their annual accounts in a currency other than the euro, for the identification of personnel members receiving a remuneration greater than 1 million euros, use the conversion table provided by the European Banking Authority when the remuneration is paid in a currency other than the euro. Otherwise, they may use internal exchange rates. Institutions whose personnel members do not receive a remuneration greater than 1 million euros within their reporting scope must indicate this to the ACPR by transmitting a zero-filled report via teletransmission in XBRL format.

Data must be transmitted once a year before the end of June, via teletransmission in XBRL format.
