1. 1. The fulfilment of the obligation referred to in Article 408 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 by originator or sponsor institutions shall not imply that borrower types and loan products must be the same for securitised and non-securitised exposures.
2. 2. Where sponsor and originator institutions have not been engaged in the original credit-granting of exposures to be securitised, or are not active in the credit-granting of the specific types of exposures to be securitised, those institutions shall obtain all the necessary information to assess whether the criteria applied in the credit-granting for those exposures are as sound and well-defined as the criteria applied to non-securitised exposures.
