Article 178
Spread risk on securitisation positions: calculation of the capital requirement

1.The capital requirement for spread risk on type 1 securitisation positions shall be equal to the loss in the basic own funds that would result from an instantaneous relative decrease of stress i in the value of each type 1 securitisation position i . The risk factor stress i shall be equal to the following:

\mathrm{stress}_i = \min(b_i \cdot \mathrm{dur}_i, 1)

where:

(a)

dur i denotes the modified duration of securitisation position i denominated in years;

(b)

b i shall be assigned depending on the credit quality step of securitisation position i according to the following table:

2.The capital requirement for spread risk on type 2 securitisation position shall be equal to the loss in the basic own funds that would result from an instantaneous relative decrease of stress i in the value of each type 2 securitisation position i . The risk factor stress i shall be equal to the following

\mathrm{stress}_i = \min(b_i \cdot \mathrm{dur}_i, 1)

3.The capital requirement for spread risk on resecuritisation positions shall be equal to the loss in the basic own funds that would result from an instantaneous relative decrease of stress i in the value of each resecuritisation position i . The risk factor stress i shall be equal to the following

\mathrm{stress}_i = \min(b_i \cdot \mathrm{dur}_i, 1)

where:

(a)

dur i denotes the modified duration of resecuritisation position i denominated in years;

5.Securitisation positions for which a credit assessment from a nominated ECAI is not available shall be assigned a risk factor stress i of 100 %.
