Regulation 2022/1301 amends the regulatory technical standards set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/1226 on the information to be provided in accordance with the STS notification requirements for on-balance-sheet synthetic securitizations.

- Article 1 on information to be included in the STS notification and Article 2 on additional information relevant to the STS notification have been amended
- Annexes I, II, and III have been amended as set out in Annex I to Regulation 2022/1301
- Annex IV, as set out in Annex II to Regulation 2022/1301, has been added
Recommendation ESRB/2022/4, which amends Recommendation ESRB/2015/2, has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union. Via this recommendation, the General Board of ESRB decided to include:
- a macro-prudential policy measure imposing a systemic risk buffer rate on credit institutions authorized in Germany, in the list of macro-prudential measures that are recommended for reciprocation under Recommendation ESRB/2015/2
- amended text on the reciprocation of certain macro-prudential measures from Belgium, France, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Norway, and Sweden
