(-) CREDIT RISK
§ 8
The capital requirement for the credit risk of the investment portfolio shall be determined by the trader only from the instruments included in the investment portfolio.
§ 9
Risk-weighted assets of the investment portfolio
(1) The risk-weighted assets of the investment portfolio represent the sum of on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet risk-weighted assets.
(2) The fair value-at-risk assets of the investment portfolio, including account taken of spot transactions, shall be determined by the trader as the sum of the products of the balance sheet asset after deduction of the adjustments, for the assets to be amortised after deduction of the adjustments and adjustments that have been created for that asset, or the relevant risk weights as set out in Table 1 of the Annex to this Regulation.
(3) In the case of reverse repo transactions and repo transactions, securities and commodities lending transactions do not change the original positions of the transferred interest, equity, currency and commodity instruments. In the case of reverse securities repo, the trader appreciates the credit provided by a lower risk weight from the issuer's risk weights of the accepted security and the borrower (the admitted security is valued by a zero risk weight). In the case of repo transactions, the trader shall appreciate the credit provided by the borrower's risk weight (the accepted commodity is valued by the trader's zero risk weight). In the case of securities repo transactions, the trader shall value the security provided by the issuer's risk weight. In the case of repurchase transactions with commodities, the trader shall value the commodity at a risk weight of 1,00. In the case of securities and commodities lending, the creditor or debtor shall choose a higher risk weight for the original instruments from the risk weights of the original instrument and the instrument adopted.
(4) The off-balance-sheet risk-weighted assets shall be determined by the trader as the sum of the product of the credit equivalents of off-balance-sheet assets referred to in paragraphs 5 and 6 and the relevant risk-weights referred to in Table 1 of the Annex to this Decree. In the case of loan equivalents of deposit claims and loans from fixed-term transactions and delta-equivalent of deposit and loan claims, in the case of loan equivalents of bonds, notes and shares from fixed-term transactions, and delta-equivalent of bonds, notes and shares from options in accordance with Table 2 of the Annex to this Regulation, the trader shall apply the relevant risk weight of the issuer of the bond or notes in accordance with Table 1 of the Annex to this decree.
(5) The credit equivalent of the off-balance-sheet assets listed in Table 2 of the Annex to this Regulation is determined by the trader as the product of the off-balance-sheet asset or delta equivalent of the debt claim, notes and shares from options and conversion factors as defined in Table 2 of the Annex to this Regulation. From this product, the trader deducts reserves where those reserves have been created for a specific off-balance sheet asset but only up to the amount of that product.
(6) The credit equivalent of off-balance-sheet assets of derivatives, with the exception of derivatives referred to in paragraph 8, shall be determined by the trader as the sum of the fair value of the derivative and the product of the off-balance-sheet asset and the conversion factor as set out in Table 3 of the Annex to this Decree. If the fair value of the derivative is negative, the trader puts it equal to 0 for the purpose of calculating the credit equivalent. From that sum, the trader deducts provisions where those provisions have been created for a specific off-balance sheet asset but only up to the amount of that sum. The credit equivalent for options sold is zero from the time of the last instalment of the option premium. Where a trader has concluded a final settlement agreement by a double party pursuant to paragraph 9 with a counterparty with which he has concluded a derivative, the credit equivalent of the off-balance-sheet asset may be determined in accordance with paragraph 10.
(7) For derivatives where the risk weight according to Table 1 of the Annex to this Decree is 1,00, the trader shall apply a risk weight of 0,50.
(8) The credit equivalent for derivatives traded on recognised exchanges is zero.
(9) Following the conclusion of a bilateral final settlement agreement, the trader shall monitor the applicable legal order in order to ensure that such agreement is enforceable. Agreement
(a) provide that, in the event of a counterparty's default, the positive and negative fair values of the individual derivatives covered by the agreement shall be set off and the trader shall have a single claim or liability in relation to the partner concerned;
(b) defines the default of the counterparty, meaning the terms and conditions defined by contract, such as entry into liquidation, bankruptcy or settlement,
(c) is not part of another agreement allowing both partners to be entitled to not pay or to pay only part of the net amount in the event of counterparty default;
(d) it has been submitted to the Securities Commission, together with a statement by the person authorised to provide legal services that provides long-term services in this field, confirming that, in the event of a counterparty's failure, a netting takes place in accordance with point (a), and the Securities Commission has not refused this agreement within one month of the date of submission of the complete documents or has not notified the extension of the deadline by a maximum of one month. The Securities Commission may request comments on the enforceability of the agreement by the competent supervisory authority, with its negative opinion bound by it.
The criterion referred to in point (d) need not be met if the legal statement already exists and is registered with a specialist, such as International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.
(10) Where the conditions set out in paragraph 9 are met, the trader shall determine one credit equivalent of off-balance-sheet assets for all derivatives agreed with the partner, which are included in the trading and investment portfolio and which are subject to a bilateral settlement agreement. This credit equivalent is equal to the sum of net fair value and potential future exposures. The net fair value is equal to the sum of the fair values of derivatives agreed with the partner. If the net fair value is negative, the trader puts it equal to 0 for the purpose of calculating the credit equivalent. The potential future exposure of the trader shall be determined by the formula:
PCinet = 0,4. PCegross + 0.6. NGR.PCegross,
where
PCegross is the sum of the off-balance-sheet assets of derivatives and conversion factors as set out in Table 3 of the Annex to this Decree,
NGR is the share in which the numerator is
(a) the net fair value of derivatives covered by a bilateral final settlement agreement with a given partner (if this value is negative, the trader puts it equal to 0) and the denominator has a gross fair value of such derivatives which is equal to the sum of the positive fair values of derivatives; or
(b) the sum of the net fair values of derivatives covered by bilateral final settlement agreements with all partners and the denominator shall be the gross fair value of such derivatives with all partners equal to the sum of the positive fair values of derivatives with all partners.
The credit equivalent of off-balance-sheet assets for derivatives contracted with a given partner shall be distributed by the trader to the part belonging to the investment portfolio and to the part belonging to the trading book in the same proportion as the ratio of the credit equivalents of the investment portfolio derivatives covered by the final settlement arrangements with that partner without the discretion of bilateral final settlement agreements and credit equivalents for trading book derivatives covered by the final settlement agreements with that partner without the discretion of bilateral final settlement agreements.
(11) A risk weight may be assigned to the balance sheet or off-balance sheet asset which is a claim or future claim and which is secured by the following means of collateral for the duration of the collateral and subject to the conditions set out in paragraph 2.
(a) the protection provider or counterparty of fixed-term operations with credit instruments, in the case of collateral provided or fixed-term operations with credit instruments negotiated
1. central governments of Zone A States and government-supported institutions,
2. the central banks of Zone A States,
3. the European Communities,
4. Governments of Zone A territorial units,
5. regional authorities of zone A States,
6. international financial institutions,
7. central governments and central banks of zone states B provided that the claim is denominated and financed in a national currency common to both the debtor and the provider of the collateral,
8. banks located in zone A states,
