The Deutsche Bundesbank published results of the September 16, 2026 multi-ISIN auction increasing two German federal bonds (maturing 2047 and 2056) by a combined EUR $2.5 Billion in planned volume. Allocations were EUR $863.82 Million and EUR $1,257.41 Million, with average yields near 3.9%.

The Norway Financial Supervisory Authority (Finanstilsynet) has listed a warning on WireBroker, with the issuing authority shown as Portugal and a link pointing to the Portuguese securities regulator (CMVM) investor portal. The source content is minimal, so the specific allegations are not stated in the text provided. Compliance teams should treat WireBroker as a potentially unauthorized or fraudulent investment services provider and screen for any exposure.

The Norway Financial Supervisory Authority (Finanstilsynet) has published a warning about Ava Global Trade Center, an entity originally flagged by the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) as a suspected "boiler room" investment fraud. Compliance teams should treat the entity as high risk for investment fraud and screen for any exposure to customers, counterparties, or transactions connected to it.

A member or alternate member of the Board of Appeal of the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs), Michele Siri, has filed a routine declaration of commitment and interests under Article 59(6) of the ESA founding regulations. The declaration affirms independence and the absence of conflicting interests, and it will be entered in a public register. It is a governance item with no new obligations for firms, but it is relevant for teams that track the integrity of the appeals process.

Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel and former Banque de France Governor François Villeroy de Galhau received the Grand Franco-German Media Prize in Paris for their commitment to European integration. The update is ceremonial and imposes no regulatory obligations. Compliance teams need take no action, though it offers limited context on central bank cooperation and policy tone.

The FCA has published final rules and guidance for the new UK cryptoasset regulatory regime, which is expected to take effect on 25 October 2027. Cryptoasset firms must be authorized and supervised under FSMA to operate in or to the UK, so compliance teams should begin gap assessments and authorization planning now.

EIOPA has acknowledged that Section 9.3 of its RFR Technical Documentation does not align with Article 51(a), paragraphs (2) and (3) of the Delegated Regulation, because it omits that assets and liabilities may be discounted using different curves. Both the omission and the PVBP presentation will be corrected in the next publication. Compliance and actuarial teams should treat the Delegated Regulation as the governing definition when calculating the CSSR for Volatility Adjustment (VA) purposes.
