46As a preliminary point, it should be borne in mind that any provisions adopted by the EU institutions, whatever their form, which are intended to have binding legal effects capable of affecting the interests of the applicant by bringing about a distinct change in his or her legal position are regarded as ‘challengeable acts’ for the purposes of Article 263 TFEU (see, to that effect, judgments of 13 October 2011, Deutsche Post and Germany v Commission, C‑463/10 P and C‑475/10 P, EU:C:2011:656, paragraph 37, and of 20 September 2016, Mallis and Others v Commission and ECB, C‑105/15 P to C‑109/15 P, EU:C:2016:702, paragraph 51 and the case-law cited).
