EXPOSURE VALUE

Institutions applying the Simple Risk Weight approach or the PD/LGD approach shall report in column 060 the exposure value, taking into account substitution effects stemming from unfunded credit protection (Paragraphs 2 and 3 of Article 155 and Article 167 CRR).

EXPOSURE WEIGHTED AVERAGE LGD (%)

Institutions applying the PD/LGD approach shall report the exposure weighted average of the LGDs assigned to the obligor grades or pools included in the aggregation.

The exposure value taking into account unfunded credit protection (column 060) shall be used for the calculation of the exposure-weighted average LGD.

Institutions shall take into account Article 165(2) CRR.

RISK WEIGHTED EXPOSURE AMOUNT

Institutions shall report risk-weighted exposure amounts for equity exposures calculated in accordance with Article 155 CRR.

Where institutions applying the PD/LGD approach do not have sufficient information to use the definition of default set out in Article 178 CRR, a scaling factor of 1,5 shall be assigned to the risk weights when calculating risk weighted exposure amounts (Article 155(3) CRR).

With regard to the input parameter M (Maturity) to the risk-weight function, the maturity assigned to equity exposures equals 5 years (Article 165(3) CRR).
