C 102 – Definition of Low Default Portfolios Column Label Legal reference Instructions 0010 Portfolio ID The unique ID assigned to the portfolio by EBA. 0020 Portfolio name The name of each portfolio, assigned from among the following names: (a) Sovereign; (b) Institutions; (c) Large corporates; (d) Specialised lending exposures, which comprises all the exposures as referred to in Article 147(8) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 2 ) . 0030 Type of risk The instructions provided for column 0130 of C 101 shall apply. 0040 Regulatory approach The instructions provided for column 0140 of C 101 shall apply. 0050 Geographical area The instructions provided for column 0080 of C 101 shall apply. 0060 Rating Article 153(5) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Template 8.2 of Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 Exposures shall be split into parts and assigned to portfolios based on the rank of the internal rating applied by the institution from lowest risk to highest risk excluding defaults with a probability of default (“PD”) corresponding to 100 %. The ratingtakes values from Rating 1, Rating 2 etc. Where the reporting institution applies a unique rating system or is able to report in accordance with an internal master scale, that internal master scale shall be used.

For specialised lending exposures risk weighted in accordance with Article 153(5) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, the rating split shall be based on the supervisory risk weight category described in table 1 of that Article, as follows: Rating 1: Category 1 with Remaining maturity less than 2,5 years; Rating 2: Category 2 with Remaining maturity less than 2,5 years; Rating 3: Category 3 with Remaining maturity less than 2,5 years; Rating 4: Category 4 with Remaining maturity less than 2,5 years; Rating 5: Category 1 with Remaining maturity equal or more than 2,5 years; Rating 6: Category 2 with Remaining maturity equal or more than 2,5 years; Rating 7: Category 3 with Remaining maturity equal or more than 2,5 years; Rating 8: Category 4 with Remaining maturity equal or more than 2,5 years.

Where more than one facility type value applies to the credit product, the exposure value shall be split on the basis of the facility type values. The type of facility is one of the following: (a) full risk (100 %); (b) note issuance facility and revolving underwriting facility (Medium risk); (c) issued warranties and indemnities, guarantees, irrevocable stand-by letters of credit, documentary credit and other medium risk off-balance sheet items (Medium risk),including tender, performance, customs and tax bonds, guarantees, irrevocable standby letters of credit not having the character of credit substitutes and other medium risk off-balance sheet items; (d) undrawn committed revolving credit facility (Medium- low risk) including revolving lending commitments that are undrawn and that may not be cancelled unconditionally at any time without notice or that do not provide for automatic cancellation due to a deterioration in a borrower’s creditworthiness; (e) undrawn committed term credit facility (Medium-low risk) including term lending commitments that are undrawn and that may not be cancelled unconditionally at any time without notice or that do not provide for automatic cancellation due to a deterioration in a borrower’s creditworthiness; (f) undrawn committed other credit facility (Medium-low risk) including lending commitments, other than revolving and term, that are undrawn and that may not be cancelled unconditionally at any time without notice or that do not provide for automatic cancellation due to a deterioration in a borrower’s creditworthiness; (g) issued short-term letters of credit and other medium-low risk off-balance sheet items (Medium-low risk); (h) undrawn uncommitted credit lines (Low risk) including lending facilities that are undrawn and that may be cancelled unconditionally at any time without notice or that provide for automatic cancellation due to a deterioration in borrower’s creditworthiness; (i) indrawn purchase commitments for revolving purchased receivables and other low-risk off-balance sheet items (Low risk) including commitments that are able to be unconditionally cancelled or that effectively provide for automatic cancellation at any time by the institution without prior notice; (j) not applicable. 0110 Collateralisation status Columns 0150 to 0220 of template 8.1 of Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 Exposures shall be split into parts and assigned to portfolios based on the collateralisation status of each part: (a) exposures with credit protection; (b) exposures without credit protection; (c) not applicable.

Exposures with unfunded credit protections treated under the substitution approach are already shifted to the corresponding exposures classes and shall thus not be reported under points (g), (h) or (i) of this column. 0130 Counterparty Exposures shall be split into parts and assigned to portfolios based on the type of counterparty: (a) Public sector entities (as referred to in point (c) of Article 112 (c) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013); (b) Counterparties other than public sector entities; (c) Not applicable. 0140 Size of counterparty Exposures shall be split into parts and assigned to portfolios based on the size of the counterparty which shall be determined based on the total annual turnover for the consolidated group of which the counterparty is a part: (a) ≤ EUR 50 million; (b) > EUR 50 million and ≤ EUR 200 million; (c) > EUR 200 million; (d) > EUR 200 million and ≤ EUR 500 million; (e) > EUR 500 million; (f) Not applicable.

The indexed loan-to-value range shall be calculated in a prudent manner and to comply with the following features: (a) Total amount of the loan: the outstanding amount of the mortgage loan plus any undrawn committed amount of the mortgage loan (after applying the corresponding credit conversion factor). The loan amount shall be calculated gross of any specific credit risk adjustments and shall include all other loans (including loans known to the institution that are provided by other financial institutions) secured with liens of equal or higher ranking on the same residential property with respect to the lien securing the loan. Where there is insufficient information for ascertaining the ranking of the other liens, the institution shall assume that these liens rank pari passu with the lien securing the loan; (b) Value of the property: the value of the property is the independent valuation of the property at some point in time (most likely at origination) and converted to a current value using a property price index. The valuation shall be performed in an independent way and by appraisers that meet specific qualification requirements. Qualifying requirements and minimum appraisal standards shall comply with the following requirements: (i) there is an individual assessment of the property and the property is valued in a prudently conservative manner (e.g. excluding expectations of future price appreciations and taking into account any potential for the current property price to be above a level that is sustainable over the life of the loan, for example due to a property price bubble); (ii) where a market value can be determined, the valuation is not higher than that market value; (iii) the valuation is supported by adequate appraisal documentation. Institutions shall document their calculations and provide that documentation to their competent authority upon request. 0190 Balance sheet recognition Exposures shall be split into parts and assigned to portfolios based on the balance sheet recognition: (a) On-balance sheet items; (b) Off-balance sheet items; (c) Other; (d) Not applicable.
