Annex V Part 2 §114 F 20.05 r0020
‘Financial guarantees’ shall be contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder of a loss it incurs, because a specified debtor fails to make payment where due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument, including guarantees provided for other financial guarantees. Under IFRS, those contracts shall meet the definition of financial guarantee contracts in IFRS 9.2.1(e) and IFRS 4.A. The following items of Annex I to CRR shall be classified as ‘financial guarantees’:
(a) ‘Guarantees having the character of credit substitute’;
(b) ‘Credit derivatives’ that meet the definition of financial guarantee;
(c) ‘Irrevocable standby letters of credit having the character of credit substitutes’.
Annex V Part 2 §115 F 20.05 r0030
‘Other commitments’ shall include the following items of Annex I to CRR:
(a) ‘Unpaid portion of partly-paid shares and securities’;
(b) ‘Documentary credits issued or confirmed’;
(c) ‘Trade finance off-balance sheet items’;
(d) ‘Documentary credits in which underlying shipment acts as collateral and other self-liquidating transactions’;
(e) ‘Warranties and indemnities’ (including tender and performance bonds) and ‘guarantees not having the character of credit substitutes’;
(f) ‘Shipping guarantees, customs and tax bonds’;
(g) ‘Note issuance facilities’ (NIFs) and ‘Revolving underwritings facilities’ (RUFs);
(h) ‘Undrawn credit facilities’ which comprise agreements to ‘lend’ or provide ‘acceptance facilities’ where the terms and conditions are not pre-specified;
(i) ‘Undrawn credit facilities’ which comprise agreements to ‘purchase securities’ or ‘provide guarantees’;
(j) ‘Undrawn credit facilities for tender and performance guarantees’;
(k) ‘Other off-balance sheet items’ in Annex I to CRR.
Annex V Part 2 §116 F 20.05 r0010, r0020, r0030
Under IFRS, the following items are recognised in the balance sheet and, consequently, shall not be reported as off-balance sheet exposures:
(a) ‘Credit derivatives’ that do not meet the definition of financial guarantees are ‘derivatives’ under IFRS 9;
(b) ‘Acceptances’ are obligations by an institution to pay on maturity the face value of a bill of exchange, normally covering the sale of goods. Consequently, they are classified as ‘trade receivables’ on the balance sheet;
(c) ‘Endorsements on bills’ that do not meet the criteria for derecognition under IFRS 9;
(d) ‘Transactions with recourse’ that do not meet the criteria for derecognition under IFRS 9;
(e) ‘Assets purchased under outright forward purchase agreements’ are ‘derivatives’ under IFRS 9;
(f) ‘Asset sale and repurchase agreements as referred to in paragraphs 3 and 5 of Article 12 of Directive 86/635/EEC’. In those contracts, the transferee has the option, but not the obligation, to return the assets at a price agreed in advance on a date specified or on a date to be specified. Therefore, those contracts meet the definition of derivatives in Appendix A to IFRS 9.
Annex V Part 2 §118 F 20.05 c0010
For financial guarantees, loan commitments and other commitments given, the ‘Nominal amount’ shall be the amount that best represents the institution’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of any collateral held or other credit enhancements. In particular, for financial guarantees given, the nominal amount shall be the maximum amount the entity would have to pay if the guarantee is called on. For loan commitments, the nominal amount shall be the undrawn amount that the institution has committed to lend. Nominal amounts shall be the exposure values before applying conversion factors and credit risk mitigation techniques.
Annex V Part 2 §237 F 20.05 c0026
The following exposures shall be identified in separate columns:
(a) exposures which are considered to be impaired in accordance with the applicable accounting framework; under IFRS, the amount of credit-impaired assets (Stage 3) which does not include purchased or originated credit impaired assets, shall be reported; under national GAAP, the amount of impaired assets shall be reported;
(b) exposures in respect of which a default is considered to have occurred in accordance with Article 178 CRR;
(c) under IFRS, assets with significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, but not credit-impaired (Stage 2) which do not include purchased or originated credit impaired assets;
(d) under IFRS, for performing exposures, assets without significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (Stage 1);
(e) exposures which are considered as purchased or originated financial assets that are credit-impaired at initial recognition in accordance with IFRS 9 Appendix A, including any off-balance sheet exposures that are deemed credit-impaired upon their initial recognition;
(f) for performing exposures, the amount of accumulated impairment for exposures past due by more than 30 days.

The breakdown provided shall include exposures or liabilities with residents in each foreign country in which the institution has exposures. Exposures or liabilities with international organisations and multilateral development banks shall not be assigned to the country of residence of the institution but to the geographical area ‘Other countries’.
