Jump-to-default risk weights in specific reporting requirements for market risk
- Question
-
Which risk weights should be used in the case of multiple exposures in different seniority classes and credit quality steps to the same obligor?
- Background on the question
-
According to Article 325x(1) CRR, institutions shall calculate net JTD (jump-to-default) amounts by offsetting the gross JTD amounts of short exposures and long exposures and offsetting shall only be possible between exposures to the same obligor where the short exposures have the same seniority as, or lower seniority than, the long exposures.
However, it is possible that the same obligor has exposures in multiple seniority classes and which also have different credit quality steps. In that case, it is unclear which risk weight should be used.

- Rationale for rejection
-
This question has been rejected because it is considered that EBA guidance or clarification is not needed with regard to the issue that it raises. For example, this can be the case where it is considered that the existing regulatory framework is sufficiently clear and unambiguous, or where different practices may be possible but it is not currently necessary to harmonise these further through the Q&A process.
The Single Rule Book Q&A tool has been established to provide explanations and non-binding interpretations on questions relating to the practical application or implementation of the provisions of legislative acts referred to in Article 1(2) of the EBA’s founding Regulation, as well as associated delegated and implementing acts, and guidelines and recommendations, adopted under these legislative acts.
For further information on the purpose of this tool and on how to submit questions, please see “Additional background and guidance for asking questions”.
