Annex V Part 2 §113 F 19.00 r0340
‘Loan commitments’ shall be firm commitments to provide credit under pre-specified terms and conditions, except those that are derivatives because they can be settled net in cash or by delivering or issuing another financial instrument. The following items of Annex I to CRR shall be classified as ‘Loan commitments’:
(a) ‘Forward deposits’;
(b) ‘Undrawn credit facilities’, which comprise agreements to ‘lend’ or provide ‘acceptance facilities’ under pre-specified terms and conditions.
Annex V Part 2 §116 F 19.00 r0340
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 19.00 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 §119 F 19.00 c0180, c0170
In template 9.2, for loan commitments received, the nominal amount shall be the total undrawn amount that the counterparty has committed to lend to the institution. For other commitments received, the nominal amount shall be the total amount committed by the other party in the transaction. For financial guarantees received, the ‘maximum amount of the guarantee that can be considered’ shall be the maximum amount the counterparty would have to pay if the guarantee is called on. Where a financial guarantee received has been issued by more than one guarantor, the guaranteed amount shall be reported only once in this template; the guaranteed amount shall be allocated to guarantor that is more relevant for the mitigation of credit risk.
Annex V Part 2 §240 F 19.00 c0010
For the purpose of template 19, forborne exposures shall be debt contracts in respect of which forbearance measures as defined in Article 47b(1) and (2) CRR have been applied.
Annex V Part 2 §243 F 19.00 c0010
Forbearance measures also include the exercise of clauses which, where used at the discretion of the debtor, enable the debtor to change the terms of the contract (‘embedded forbearance clauses’) and which shall be treated as a concession where the institution approves executing those clauses and concludes that the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties.
Annex V Part 2 §244 F 19.00 c0010
For the purposes of Annexes III and IV as well as this Annex, ‘refinancing’ shall mean the use of debt contracts to ensure the total or partial payment of other debt contracts the terms of which the debtor is unable to comply with.
Annex V Part 2 §245 F 19.00 c0010
For the purpose of template 19, ‘debtor’ means an obligor within the meaning of Article 47b(4) CRR.
Annex V Part 2 §246 F 19.00 r0340
For the purpose of template 19, ‘debt’ shall include loans and advances (including also cash balances at central banks and other demand deposits), debt securities and revocable and irrevocable loan commitments given, including those loan commitments that are designated at fair value through profit and loss that are assets at the reporting date. ‘Debt’ shall exclude exposures held for trading.
Annex V Part 2 §251 F 19.00 c0010
In template 19 for ‘debt’, the ‘gross carrying amount’ shall be reported in accordance with paragraph 34 of Part 1 of this Annex. For loan commitments given which are off-balance sheet exposures, the nominal amount as defined in paragraph 118 of this Part of this Annex shall be reported.
Annex V Part 2 §252 F 19.00 c0010
Exposures shall be regarded as forborne where a concession has been made in accordance with Article 47b(1) CRR, irrespective of whether any amount is past due or of the classification of the exposures as impaired in accordance with the applicable accounting framework or as defaulted in accordance with Article 178 CRR. Exposures shall not be treated as forborne where the debtor is not in financial difficulties. Under IFRS, modified financial assets (IFRS 9.5.4.3 and Appendix A) shall be treated as forborne where a concession as defined in Article 47b(1) CRR has been made, regardless of the incidence of the modification on the change in the credit risk of the financial asset since initial recognition.
Annex V Part 2 §254 F 19.00 c0010
There is a rebuttable presumption that forbearance has taken place in any of the circumstances listed in Article 47b(3) CRR.
Annex V Part 2 §255 F 19.00 c0010
Financial difficulties shall be assessed at debtor level as referred to in paragraph 245. Only exposures to which forbearance measures have been applied shall be identified as forborne exposures.
Annex V Part 2 §256 F 19.00 c0010
Forborne exposures shall be included in the non-performing exposures category or the performing exposures category in accordance with paragraphs 213 to 239 and 260 of this Part. The classification as forborne exposure shall be discontinued where all of the conditions provided in Article 47a(7) CRR are met.
Annex V Part 2 §257 F 19.00 c0010
Where the conditions referred to in Article 47a(7) CRR are not met at the end of the probation period, the exposure shall continue to be identified as performing forborne under probation until all the conditions are met. The conditions shall be assessed at least on a quarterly basis.
Annex V Part 2 §258 F 19.00 c0010
Forborne exposures, which are classified as non-current assets held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5, shall continue to be classified as forborne exposures.
Annex V Part 2 §267 F 19.00 c0120
Accumulated impairment, accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk and provisions shall be reported in accordance with paragraphs 11, 69 to 71, 106 and 110 of this Part.
Annex V Part 2 §268 F 19.00 c0180, c0170
Collateral and guarantees received on exposures with forbearance measures shall be reported for all exposures with forbearance measures, regardless of their performing or non-performing status. In addition, collateral and financial guarantees received on non-performing exposures with forbearance measures shall be shown separately. Amounts reported for collateral received and guarantees received shall be calculated in accordance with paragraphs 172 and 174 of this Part. The sum of the amounts reported for both collateral and guarantees shall be capped at the carrying amount of the related on-balance sheet exposure or nominal amount after deduction of provisions of the related off-balance sheet exposure.
