From ESG to prudential risk: understanding the EBA guidelines for 2026
Join this session to understand what is changing, what supervisors will expect, and how to respond with confidence to the EBA guidelines.
ESG risk is moving into the prudential core of banking. With the EBA’s new guidelines coming into force in 2026, institutions are expected to explicitly identify, manage, and integrate ESG risks across governance, risk frameworks, and capital planning.
For banks, this marks a fundamental shift. ESG is no longer a standalone topic. It must be embedded into how risk is understood and priced.
What this webinar covers:
- A practical overview of the EBA ESG Risk Management Guidelines
- How to move from implicit to explicit ESG risk management
- Key expectations around governance, oversight, and risk appetite
- Where ESG risk impacts credit processes and capital adequacy
