On 27 May 2026, the European Money Markets Institute (EMMI), the administrator of Euribor, announced the inclusion of KBC Bank in the Euribor panel.
ESMA and the Belgian Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) welcome the inclusion of KBC Bank in the panel as a positive development that contributes to strengthening the robustness and reliability of this critical benchmark.
Verena Ross, ESMA Chair, said:
Jean-Paul Servais, Chairman of the FSMA, said:
Under the Benchmarks Regulation (BMR), ESMA is responsible for the supervision of EMMI as the administrator of the EU critical benchmark Euribor, while National Competent Authorities (NCAs) are responsible for supervising the banks contributing to Euribor. The FSMA supervises KBC Bank under the BMR when the bank contributes to the calculation of Euribor.
ESMA and the NCAs supervising the Euribor panel banks cooperate closely on Euribor-related matters, acting respectively as the chair and members of the Euribor College of Supervisors.
