Article 325e
Components of the sensitivities-based method
1. Institutions shall calculate the own funds requirement for market risk under the sensitivities-based method by aggregating the following three own funds requirements in accordance with Article 325h:
(a) own funds requirements for delta risk which capture the risk of changes in the value of an instrument due to movements in its non-volatility related risk factors;
(b) own funds requirements for vega risk which capture the risk of changes in the value of an instrument due to movements in its volatility-related risk factors;
(c) own funds requirements for curvature risk which capture the risk of changes in the value of an instrument due to movements in the main non-volatility related risk factors not captured by the own funds requirements for delta risk.
2. For the purpose of the calculation referred to in paragraph 1,
(a) all the positions of instruments with optionality shall be subject to the own funds requirements referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph 1; 1 for the risks other than exotic underlyings of the instruments as referred to in point (a) of Article 325u(2);
(b) all the positions of instruments without optionality shall only be subject to the own funds requirements referred to in point (a) of paragraph 1. 1 for the risks other than exotic underlyings of the instruments as referred to in point (a) of Article 325u(2).
For the purposes of this Chapter, instruments with optionality include, among others: calls, puts, caps, floors, swap options, barrier options and exotic options. Embedded options, such as prepayment or behavioural options, shall be considered to be stand-alone positions in options for the purpose of calculating the own funds requirements for market risk.
For the purposes of this Chapter, instruments whose cash flows can be written as a linear function of the underlying's notional amount shall be considered to be instruments without optionality.3. By way of derogation from point (b) of paragraph 2, an institution may choose to subject all the positions of instruments without optionality to the own funds requirements referred to in points (a) and (c) of paragraph 1.
An institution that chooses to use the approach set out in the first subparagraph shall notify its competent authority thereof at least three months before the first use. After those three months have elapsed and provided that the competent authority has not objected, the institution may use that approach until the competent authority informs the institution that it is no longer permitted to do so.
An institution that wishes to stop using the approach set out in the first subparagraph shall notify its competent authority thereof at least three months before stopping that use. The institution may stop applying that approach, unless the competent authority has objected within that three-month period.

For a given risk factor, institutions shall perform those calculations on a net basis across all the positions of the instruments subject to the own funds requirement for curvature risk that contain that risk factor. 2. For a given risk factor k included in one or more instruments referred to in paragraph 1, institutions shall calculate the upward net curvature risk position of that risk factor ( ) and the downward net curvature risk position of that risk factor ( ) as follows: where: i the index that denotes all the positions of instruments referred to in paragraph 1 and including risk factor k; xk the current value of risk factor k; Vi (xk) the value of instrument i as estimated by the pricing model of the institution based on the current value of risk factor k; the value of instrument i as estimated by the pricing model of the institution based on an upward shift of the value of risk factor k; the value of instrument i as estimated by the pricing model of the institution based on a downward shift of the value of risk factor k; the risk weight applicable to risk factor k determined in accordance with Section 6; sik the delta sensitivity of instrument i with respect to risk factor k, calculated in accordance with Article 325r. 3. By way of derogation from paragraph 2, for curves of risk factors that belong to the general interest rate risk (GIRR), credit spread risk (CSR) and commodity risk classes, institutions shall perform the calculations laid down in paragraph 6 at the level of the entire curve instead of at the level of each risk factor that belongs to the curve. For the purposes of the calculation referred to in paragraph 2, where xk is a curve of risk factors allocated to the GIRR, CSR and commodity risk classes, sik shall be the sum of the delta sensitivities to the risk factor of the curve across all tenors of the curve. 4. In order to determine a bucket-level own funds requirement for curvature risk, institutions shall aggregate, in accordance with the following formula the upward and downward net curvature risk positions, calculated in accordance with paragraph 2, of all the risk factors assigned to that bucket in accordance with Subsection 1 of Section 3: where: b the index that denotes a bucket of a given risk class; Kb own funds requirements for curvature risk for bucket b; ; ; ; pkl the intra-bucket correlations between risk factors k and l as prescribed in Section 6; k, l the indices that denote all the risk factors of instruments referred to in paragraph 1 that are assigned to bucket b; ( ) the upward net curvature risk position; ( ) the downward net curvature risk position. 5.

Article 325i Treatment of index instruments and other multi-underlying instruments 1. Institutions shall use a look-through approach for index and other multi-underlying instruments in accordance with the following: (a) for the purposes of calculating the own funds requirements for delta and curvature risk, institutions shall consider that they hold individual positions directly in the underlying constituents of the index or other multi-underlying instruments, except for a position in an index included in the ACTP for which they shall calculate a single sensitivity to the index; (b) institutions are allowed to net the sensitivities to a risk factor of a given constituent of an index instrument or other multi-underlying instrument with the sensitivities to the same risk factor of the same constituent of single name instruments, except for positions included in the ACTP; (c) for the purposes of calculating the own funds requirements for vega risk, institutions may either consider that they directly hold individual positions in the underlying constituents of the index or other multi-underlying instrument, or calculate a single sensitivity to the underlying of that instrument. In the latter case, institutions shall assign the single sensitivity to the relevant bucket as set out in Subsection 1 of Section 6 as follows: (i) where, taking into account the weightings of that index, more than 75 % of constituents in that index would be mapped to the same bucket, institutions shall assign the sensitivity to that bucket and treat it as a single-name sensitivity in that bucket; (ii) in all other cases, institutions shall assign the sensitivity to the relevant index bucket. 2. By way of derogation from point (a) of paragraph 1, institutions may calculate a single sensitivity to a position in a listed equity or credit index for the purposes of calculating the own funds requirements for delta and curvature risks provided the listed equity or credit index meets the conditions set out in paragraph 3. In that case, institutions shall assign the single sensitivity to the relevant bucket as set out in Subsection 1 of Section 6 as follows: (a) where, taking into account the weightings of that listed index, more than 75 % of constituents in that listed index would be mapped to the same bucket, that sensitivity shall be assigned to that bucket and treated as a single-name sensitivity in that bucket; (b) in all other cases, institutions shall assign the sensitivity to the relevant listed index bucket. 3. Institutions may use the approach set out in paragraph 2 for instruments referencing a listed equity or credit index where all of the following conditions are met: (a) the constituents of the listed index and their respective weightings in that index are known; (b) the listed index contains at least 20 constituents; (c) no single constituent contained within the listed index represents more than 25 % of the total market capitalisation of that index; (d) no set comprising one tenth of the total number of constituents of the listed index, rounded up to the next integer, represents more than 60 % of the total market capitalisation of that index; (e) the total market capitalisation of all the constituents of the listed index is no less than EUR 40 billion. 4. An institution shall use, consistently over time, only the approach set out in paragraph 1 or the approach set out in paragraph 2 for all the instruments that reference a listed equity or credit index that meets the conditions set out in paragraph 3. An institution shall require prior permission from the competent authority before switching from one approach to another. 5. For an index or other multi-underlying instrument, the sensitivity inputs for the calculation of delta and curvature risks shall be consistent, irrespective of the approaches used for that instrument. 6. Index or multi-underlying instruments which bear other residual risks as referred to in Article 325u(5) shall be subject to the residual risk add-on referred to in Section 4.

The earlier text simply directed institutions to treat collective investment undertakings according to a delegated act referred to in Article 461a, while the later text replaces that reference with a detailed set of rules directly in Article 325j itself.
The new version sets out three approaches for calculating own funds requirements for a CIU position depending on the availability of look-through information, a derogation for index-tracking CIUs meeting a return-difference threshold, rules on combining approaches, detailed calculation steps for the mandate-based method, and conditions under Article 132 for using certain approaches.

Article 325j Treatment of collective investment undertakings 1. An institution shall calculate the own funds requirements for market risk of a position in a CIU using one of the following approaches: (a) where an institution is able to obtain sufficient information about the individual underlying exposures of the CIU, the institution shall calculate the own funds requirements for market risk of that CIU position by looking through to the underlying positions of the CIU as if those positions were directly held by the institution; (b) where the institution is not able to obtain sufficient information about the individual underlying exposures of the CIU, but the institution has knowledge of the content the mandate of the CIU and daily price quotes for the CIU can be obtained, the institution shall calculate the own funds requirements for market risk of that CIU position by using one of the following approaches: (i) the institution may consider the position in the CIU as a single equity position allocated to the bucket other sector in Table 8 of Article 325ap(1); (ii) upon permission from its competent authority, an institution may calculate the own funds requirements for market risk of the CIU in accordance with the limits set in the CIU’s mandate and relevant law; (c) where the institution meets neither the conditions in point (a) nor (b), the institution shall allocate the CIU to the non-trading book. An institution that uses one of the approaches set out in point (b) shall apply the own funds requirement for the default risk set out in Section 5 of this Chapter and the residual risk add-on set out in Section 4 of this Chapter where the mandate of the CIU implies that some exposures in the CIU shall be subject to those own funds requirements. An institution that uses the approach set out in point (ii) of point (b) may calculate the own funds requirements for counterparty credit risk and own funds requirements for credit valuation adjustment risk of derivative positions of the CIU, using the simplified approach set out in paragraph 3 of Article 132a. 2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, where an institution has a position in a CIU that tracks an index benchmark so that the annualised return difference between the CIU and the tracked index benchmark over the last 12 months is below 1 % in absolute terms, ignoring fees and commissions, the institution may treat that position as a position in the tracked index benchmark. An institution shall verify compliance with that condition when the institution enters into the position and, after that, at least annually. However, where data for the last 12 months are not fully available, an institution may, subject to permission from the institution’s competent authority, use an annualised return difference from a period shorter than 12 months. 3. An institution may use a combination of the approaches referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph 1 for its positions in CIUs. However, an institution shall use only one of those approaches for all the positions in the same CIU. 4. For the purposes of point (b) of paragraph 1, an institution shall carry out the calculations under the following provisions: (a) for the purposes of calculating the own funds requirement under the sensitivities-based method set out in Section 2 of this Chapter, the CIU shall first take position to the maximum extent allowed under its mandate or relevant law in the exposures attracting the highest own funds requirements set out under that Section and shall then continue taking positions in descending order until the maximum total loss limit is reached; (b) for the purposes of the own fund requirements for the default risk set out in Section 5 of this Chapter, the CIU shall first take position to the maximum extent allowed under its mandate or relevant law in the exposures attracting the highest own funds requirements set out under that Section and shall then continue taking positions in descending order until the maximum total loss limit is reached; (c) the CIU shall apply leverage to the maximum extent allowed under its mandate or relevant law, where applicable. The own funds requirements for all positions in the same CIU for which the calculations referred to in the first subparagraph are used shall be calculated on a stand-alone basis as a separate portfolio using the approach set out in this Chapter. 5. An institution may use the approaches referred to in point (a) or (b) of paragraph 1 only where the CIU meets all the conditions set out in Article 132(3) and point (a) of Article 132(4).

Paragraph 1 now allows the spot exchange rate to be taken against the institution's base currency, where one is used under new paragraph 7, in addition to the reporting currency.
Paragraph 3 now applies the curvature risk factors to instruments (rather than only options) with foreign exchange sensitive underlyings, and defines those factors by reference to the delta risk factors in paragraph 1 rather than simply repeating paragraph 1's content.
Three new paragraphs, 5, 6 and 7, have been added covering adjustment of curvature risk components by a factor of 1,5 in certain currency-underlying situations and, subject to competent authority permission, the use of a designated base currency in place of the reporting currency under listed conditions, with conversion of resulting own funds requirements back into the reporting currency; none of this appears in the earlier text.

Institutions shall not be required to distinguish between onshore and offshore variants of a currency for all foreign exchange delta, vega and curvature risk factors. 5. Where a foreign exchange rate that is the underlying of an instrument i that is subject to own funds requirements for curvature risks neither refers to the institution’s reporting currency nor the institution’s base currency, the institution may divide by 1,5 the corresponding components and set out in paragraph 2 of Article 325g for which xk is the foreign exchange risk factor between one of the two currencies of the underlying and the institution’s reporting currency or the institution’s base currency, as applicable. 6. Subject to permission from its competent authority, an institution may divide by 1,5 the components and set out in Article 325g(2) consistently for all the foreign exchange risk factors of instruments concerning foreign exchange and subject to own funds requirement for curvature risk, provided that any foreign exchange risk factors based on the institution’s reporting currency or the institution’s base currency, as applicable, that are included in the calculation of those components are shifted simultaneously. 7. By way of derogation from paragraphs 1 and 3, an institution may replace, subject to permission from its competent authority, its reporting currency by another currency (the base currency) in all the spot exchange rates to express the delta and curvature foreign exchange risk factors where all of the following conditions are met: (a) the institution uses only one base currency; (b) the institution applies the base currency consistently to all its trading book and non-trading book positions; (c) the institution has demonstrated to the satisfaction of its competent authority that: (i) using the chosen base currency provides an appropriate risk representation for the institution’s positions subject to foreign exchange risks; (ii) the choice of base currency is compatible with the manner in which the institution manages those foreign exchange risks internally; (iii) the choice of base currency is not driven primarily by the desire to reduce the institution’s own funds requirements; (d) the institution takes into account the translation risk between the reporting currency and the base currency. An institution that has been permitted to use a base currency as set out in the first subparagraph shall convert the resulting own funds requirements for foreign exchange risk into the reporting currency using the prevailing spot exchange rate between the base currency and the reporting currency.

An institution which does not calculate the own funds requirements for CVA risk for its counterparties in accordance with Article 383 shall calculate a portfolio own funds requirements for CVA risk for each counterparty in accordance with the following formula, taking into account CVA hedges that are eligible in accordance with Article 386:K2.33 h i 0.5 wi Mi EADitotal MihedgeBi ind wind Mind Bind2 i 0.75 wi2 Mi EADitotal MihedgeBi2 where: h the one-year risk horizon (in units of a year); h = 1; wi the weight applicable to counterparty i. Counterparty i shall be mapped to one of the six weights wi based on an external credit assessment by a nominated ECAI, as set out in Table 1. For a counterparty for which a credit assessment by a nominated ECAI is not available: (a) an institution using the approach in Title II, Chapter 3 shall map the internal rating of the counterparty to one of the external credit assessment; (b) an institution using the approach in Title II, Chapter 2 shall assign wi=1,0 % to this counterparty. However, if an institution uses Article 128 to risk weight counterparty credit risk exposures to this counterparty, wi=3,0 % shall be assigned; EADtotali the total counterparty credit risk exposure value of counterparty i (summed across its netting sets) including the effect of collateral in accordance with the methods set out in Sections 3 to 6 of Chapter 6 of Title II as applicable to the calculation of the own funds requirements for counterparty credit risk for that counterparty. For an institution not using the method set out in Section 6 of Title II, Chapter 6, the exposure shall be discounted by applying the following factor:1 e0.05 Mi0.05 Mi Bi the notional of purchased single name credit default swap hedges (summed if more than one position) referencing counterparty i and used to hedge CVA risk. That notional amount shall be discounted by applying the following factor:1 e0.05 Mihedge0.05 Mihedge Bind is the full notional of one or more index credit default swap of purchased protection used to hedge CVA risk. That notional amount shall be discounted by applying the following factor:1 e0.05 Mind0.05 Mind wind is the weight applicable to index hedges. An institution shall determine wind by calculating a weighted average of wi that are applicable to the individual constituents of the index; Mi the effective maturity of the transactions with counterparty i. For an institution using the method set out in Section 6 of Title II, Chapter 6, Mi shall be calculated in accordance with Article 162(2)(g). However, for that purpose, Mi shall not be capped at five years but at the longest contractual remaining maturity in the netting set. For an institution not using the method set out in Section 6 of Title II, Chapter 6, Mi is the average notional weighted maturity as referred to in point (b) of Article 162(2). However, for that purpose, Mi shall not be capped at five years but at the longest contractual remaining maturity in the netting set.
