Amendment 169 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 35
(35) While it is desirable to base the calculation of the exposure value on that provided for the purposes of own funds requirements, it is appropriate to adopt rules for the monitoring of large exposures without applying risk weightings or degrees of risk. Moreover, the credit risk mitigation techniques applied in the solvency regime were designed with the assumption of a well-diversified credit risk. In the case of large exposures dealing with single name concentration risk, including sovereign risks, credit risk is not well- diversified. The effects of those techniques should therefore be subject to prudential safeguards. In this context, it is necessary to provide for an effective recovery of credit protection for the purposes of large exposures.

Amendment 232 #
Proposal for a regulation
Article 1 a (new)
Article 1a Stricter own funds requirements by Member States Member States shall in their national legislations have the possibility to permanently set own funds requirements for institutions higher than those requirements laid down in Article 87(1)of this Regulation. It is reasonable that the Member States have means available to strengthen financial stability. Allowing Member States to set transparent, legally binding higher own funds requirements for their cross-border banking groups will create a positive externality on other Member States since it will reduce the risk of contagion in the financial sector. Member States may require a systemic institution to maintain an appropriate systemic buffer calculated as a percentage of the institution's total exposure amount in accordance with Article 87(3) of this Regulation on an individual basis, as applicable in accordance with Part One, Title II of this Regulation. Member States may also permit the systemic buffer to be calculated and maintained on a consolidated basis, as applicable in accordance with Part One, Title II of this Regulation.
