European Central Bank — Supervisory Banking Statistics (SUP)

DatasetExecutable4/7Query nowOpen workbench Subscribe🇪🇺European

Supervisory Banking Statistics (SUP) is a dataset published by the European Central Bank via its Data Portal, providing official time series on banking supervision indicators for the euro area. It is distributed as the SUP dataflow through the SDMX 2.1 REST API, with a single endpoint offering XML (SDMX-ML), CSV, and JSON output formats. Users can request specific series using a key path together with startPeriod, endPeriod, and lastNObservations filters. The same underlying data can also be browsed and charted interactively on the ECB Data Portal, making it useful for monitoring bank supervision metrics across European institutions.Supervisory Banking Statistics (SUP) — official time series from the European Central Bank Data Portal, published as the SUP dataflow over SDMX 2.1 REST. One endpoint serves XML (SDMX-ML), CSV (?format=csvdata) and JSON (?format=jsondata); extract exactly the series you need with a key path and startPeriod / endPeriod / lastNObservations filters. Browse and chart the same series on the ECB Data Portal.
