Amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 32024R1623 · Regulation (EU) 2024/2987 32024R2987 · Regulation (EU) 2024/2795 32024R2795
applies from: unchanged
Paragraph 1 now adds a rule requiring institutions to assign a risk weight at least one credit quality step higher than the one implied by the nominated ECAI's or export credit agency's credit assessment for exposures in the classes listed in Article 112, points (a), (b), (c) and (e), when the assessment under Article 79, point (b), of Directive 2013/36/EU reflects higher risk characteristics than that credit assessment would imply.
Paragraph 3 changes the wording so that either the exposure value or the risk weight may be amended when an exposure is subject to credit protection, and it now refers to this Chapter and Chapter 4 rather than only Chapter 4.
Paragraph 5 is reworded to speak of the exposure value of an item for which no risk weight is provided under this Chapter, rather than exposures for which no calculation is provided in Section 2, and paragraph 6 replaces the reference to Article 12(1) of Directive 83/349/EEC with Article 22(7) of Directive 2013/34/EU while removing the earlier reference to ancillary services undertakings among eligible counterparties in point (a).

Article 113
Calculation of risk-weighted exposure amounts
1. To calculate risk-weighted exposure amounts, risk weights shall be applied to all exposures, unless those exposures are deducted from own funds or are subject to the treatment set out in Article 72e(5), first subparagraph, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2. 2 of this Regulation. The application of risk weights shall be based on the exposure class to which the exposure is assigned and, to the extent specified in Section 2, its credit quality. Credit quality may be determined by reference to the credit assessments of ECAIs or the credit assessments of export credit agencies in accordance with Section 3.
With the exception of exposures assigned to the exposure classes set out in Article 112, points (a), (b), (c) and (e), of this Regulation where the assessment in accordance with Article 79, point (b), of Directive 2013/36/EU reflects higher risk characteristics than those implied by the credit quality step to which the exposure would be assigned based on the applicable credit assessment of the nominated ECAI or export credit agency, the institution shall assign a risk weight at least one credit quality step higher than the risk weight implied by the credit assessment of the nominated ECAI or export credit agency.
2. For the purposes of applying a risk weight, as referred to in paragraph 1, the exposure value shall be multiplied by the risk weight specified or determined in accordance with Section 2.
3. Where an exposure is subject to credit protection protection, the exposure value or the risk weight applicable to that item exposure, as appropriate, may be amended in accordance with this Chapter and Chapter 4.
4. Risk-weighted exposure amounts for securitised exposures shall be calculated in accordance with Chapter 5.
5. Exposures The exposure value of any item for which no calculation risk weight is provided in Section 2 for under this Chapter shall be assigned a risk-weight risk weight of 100 %.
6. With the exception of exposures giving rise to Common Equity Tier 1, Additional Tier 1 or Tier 2 items, an institution may, subject to the prior approval of the competent authorities, decide not to apply the requirements of paragraph 1 of this Article to the exposures of that institution to a counterparty which is its parent undertaking, its subsidiary, a subsidiary of its parent undertaking undertaking, or an undertaking linked to the institution by a relationship within the meaning of Article 12(1) 22(7) of Directive 83/349/EEC. 2013/34/EU. Competent authorities are empowered to grant approval if the following conditions are fulfilled:
(a) the counterparty is an institution, institution or a financial institution or an ancillary services undertaking subject to appropriate prudential requirements;
(b) the counterparty is included in the same consolidation as the institution on a full basis;
(c) the counterparty is subject to the same risk evaluation, measurement and control procedures as the institution;
(d) the counterparty is established … 424 unchanged words … (c) and (d) is approved and monitored at regular intervals by the relevant competent authorities.
Where the institution, in accordance with this paragraph, decides not to apply the requirements of paragraph 1, it may assign a risk weight of 0 %.
