Factors Affecting Changes

Supervisory banking statistics are calculated by aggregating data reported by banks reporting COREP (capital adequacy information) and FINREP (financial information) at the relevant time. Consequently, changes from one quarter to another may be influenced by the following factors:

  • changes in the sample of reporting institutions;
  • fusions and acquisitions;
  • reclassifications (for example, portfolio changes as a result of the reclassification of certain assets from one accounting portfolio to another).
