Panel 2
Sharing statistical and supervisory information
Information exchange serves as a fundamental conduit through which authorities collaborate in the areas of monetary policy and banking supervision. In the supervisory domain, arrangements for sharing information are established with numerous authorities, including the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs), national competent authorities, the European Statistical System (ESS), the Single Resolution Board (SRB). In the area of statistics, given the significant recent reforms to the statistical legal framework (e.g., Regulation 223/2009 and Regulation 2533/1998) and major upcoming reforms (ESA, IReF, digital omnibus), new and innovative methods for collecting and sharing information have emerged. The panel explores how these legal changes can help address various challenges, including the objectives of simplification, the use of artificial intelligence (AI), and more. Additionally, the panel assesses how principles such as confidentiality and the ‘once-only’ principle are reflected in current rules and practices, as well as identify areas of focus for simplification measures to ensure effective and streamlined information sharing.

‘Independence, not isolation: central banks and their connections with other authorities’.
Monday, 28 and Tuesday, 29 September 2026, Hybrid event – by invitation only.
This year’s conference focuses on the connections between central banks and other authorities. These relationships are often framed through the concepts of accountability and independence. The 2026 Legal Conference aims to revisit this debate by emphasizing cooperation and by discussing the arrangements that define modern central banking and banking supervision as collaborative endeavours.
