Basel Committee agrees to publish report on information and communication technology risk management, progresses cryptoasset targeted review, considers targeted updates on liquidity risk principles
Why this matters
This is a media release documenting Basel Committee meeting outcomes. The content supports three primary regulatory initiatives: (1) publication of ICT risk management practices report addressing operational resilience, (2) ongoing targeted review of cryptoasset prudential standards with updates promised later in 2026, and (3) planned consultation on updates to liquidity risk principles. These are forward-looking policy signals and guidance rather than final rules or binding obligations, warranting a significance score of 3. Urgency is null as this is informational content announcing future work and consultations, not immediate obligations.
