Article 115
.
1 . Exposures to regional governments or local authorities shall be risk-weighted as exposures to institutions unless they are treated as exposures to central governments under paragraphs 2 or 4 or receive a risk weight as specified in paragraph 5. The preferential treatment for short-term exposures specified in Article 119(2) and Article 120(2) shall not be applied.
2 . Exposures to regional governments or local authorities shall be treated as exposures to the central government in whose jurisdiction they are established where there is no difference in risk between such exposures because of the specific revenue-raising powers of the former, and the existence of specific institutional arrangements the effect of which is to reduce their risk of default.
[F1The PRA F2... must maintain a publicly available database of all regional governments and local authorities within the United Kingdom which the competent authority treats as exposures to the central government of the United Kingdom.]
3 . Exposures to churches or religious communities constituted in the form of a legal person under public law shall, in so far as they raise taxes in accordance with legislation conferring on them the right to do so, be treated as exposures to regional governments and local authorities. In this case, paragraph 2 shall not apply and, for the purposes of Article 150(1)(a), permission to apply the Standardised Approach shall not be excluded.
4 . When competent authorities of a third country jurisdiction which applies supervisory and regulatory arrangements at least equivalent to those applied in the [F3United Kingdom] treat exposures to regional governments or local authorities as exposures to their central government and there is no difference in risk between such exposures because of the specific revenue-raising powers of regional government or local authorities and to specific institutional arrangements to reduce the risk of default, institutions may risk weight exposures to such regional governments and local authorities in the same manner.
For the purposes of this paragraph, [F4the Treasury may by regulations determine whether] a third country applies supervisory and regulatory arrangements at least equivalent to those applied in the [F5United Kingdom] . F6... .
5 . Exposures to regional governments or local authorities of the [F7United Kingdom] that are not referred to in paragraphs 2 to 4 and are denominated and funded in [F8pounds sterling] shall be assigned a risk weight of 20 %.]
