The Council of the European Union has issued a corrigendum to the Maltese language version of Regulation (EU) 2019/2033 on the prudential requirements of investment firms, correcting an obvious error in Article 62(1). The correction, published on 3 July 2026, removes the words "u d-ditti tal-investiment" (and investment firms) from the title of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, aligning the Maltese text with all other language versions.
The error was identified in the Maltese version of the regulation, which had incorrectly included the phrase in the title of Regulation 575/2013, a separate instrument on prudential requirements for credit institutions. The correction ensures consistency across language versions and does not affect the substance of the regulation.
The corrigendum was adopted under procedure 2(b), which applies to obvious errors in a single language version. Member States have eight days to submit observations to the Council's Legal Service. The correction is a technical adjustment with no impact on the regulatory framework for investment firms, which has been in force since 2019.
Stakeholders affected by this correction are limited to users of the Maltese language version, including Maltese investment firms, regulators, and legal professionals. The correction eliminates a potential source of confusion in the interpretation of the regulation's references to other EU legislation. No other language versions require amendment, and the correction does not alter the obligations or rights of investment firms under EU law.
The Council's Legal Service will process any observations received within the deadline before finalizing the corrigendum. This is a routine administrative correction with no further institutional follow-up expected.
