Eligible assets for investment
Article 4
1. The Board shall determine the eligibility of assets for investment on the basis of the general requirements for liquid assets of credit institutions laid down in Article 7(2), (4), (5) and (6), and in points (a) and (b) of Article 7(7) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/61. 2. The Board shall invest the amounts referred to in Article 1(1) exclusively in assets which meet the requirements established in Articles 10(1), 11(1), points (a) to (e) of Article 12(1) and Article 15(1) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/61. 3. The requirements for credit institutions laid down in the second sentence of Article 10(1)(d) and in point (iii) of Article 10(1)(f), point (iii) of Article 11(1)(c), point (v) of Article 11(1)(d) and point (ii) of Article 12(1)(e) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/61 shall not apply to the Board. 4. The Board shall conduct an appropriate assessment of an eligible asset before investing in it, including an evaluation of its liquidity and creditworthiness and of its compatibility with the investment objectives set out in Article 3. The interaction with the entire investment portfolio should be considered when determining the prudence of an individual investment. 5. In case any asset loses its eligibility, the Board shall progressively reduce the exposure of the Fund to that given asset. Without prejudice to Article 3, the Board shall do so within a timeframe and in a manner that minimise any impact on market prices.
