What changed

The Official Journal published 18 EU legislative acts spanning banking resolution, deposit protection, environmental policy, energy labelling, and aviation. The banking package (Regulation 2026/808 and Directives 2026/804, 2026/806) updates early intervention measures, resolution conditions, and resolution funding across the EU. Directive 2026/805 amends three water policy directives. Delegated Regulation 2026/881 specifies cybersecurity notification delay conditions under the Network and Information Security Directive framework.

Affected entities across EU member states should monitor transposition deadlines for the directives and review updated technical requirements in the delegated regulations. Banking institutions and resolution authorities will need to assess revised early intervention and resolution frameworks. Energy labelling requirements for smartphones and tablets have corrected language versions under Delegated Regulation 2026/879.
