Paragraph:
The resolution authority of the resolution entity, the group-level resolution authority, where different from the former, and the resolution authorities responsible for the subsidiaries of a resolution group that are subject to the requirement referred to in Article 45f on an individual basis shall do everything within their power to reach a joint decision on:
the amount of the requirement applied at the consolidated resolution group level for each resolution entity; and
the amount of the requirement applied on an individual basis to each entity of a resolution group which is not a resolution entity.
The joint decision shall ensure compliance with Articles 45e and 45f and it shall be fully reasoned and provided to:
the resolution entity by its resolution authority;
the entities of a resolution group which are not a resolution entity by the resolution authorities of those entities;
the Union parent undertaking of the group by the resolution authority of the resolution entity, when that Union parent undertaking is not itself a resolution entity from the same resolution group.
The joint decision taken in accordance with this Article may provide that, where consistent with the resolution strategy and sufficient instruments complying with Article 45f(2) have not been bought directly or indirectly by the resolution entity, the requirements referred to in Article 45c(7) are partially met by the subsidiary in compliance with Article 45f(2) with instruments issued to and bought by entities not belonging to the resolution group.
Such an adjustment may be applied subject to the following:
the adjustment may be applied in respect of differences in the calculation of the total risk exposure amounts between the relevant Member States by adjusting the level of the requirement;
the adjustment shall not be applied to eliminate differences resulting from exposures between resolution groups.
The sum of the amounts referred to in point (a) of Article 45d(4) of this Directive and Article 12a of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 for individual resolution entities shall not be lower than the sum of the amounts referred to in point (b) of Article 45d(4) of this Directive and Article 12a of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013.
Where a joint decision is not taken within four months because of a disagreement concerning a consolidated resolution group requirement referred to in Article 45e, a decision shall be taken on that requirement by the resolution authority of the resolution entity after having duly taken into account:
the assessment of entities of the resolution group that are not a resolution entity, performed by the relevant resolution authorities;
the opinion of the group-level resolution authority, where different from the resolution authority of the resolution entity.
Where, at the end of the four-month period, any of the resolution authorities concerned has referred the matter to EBA in accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, the resolution authority of the resolution entity shall defer its decision and await any decision that EBA may take in accordance with Article 19(3) of that Regulation, and shall take its decision in accordance with the decision of EBA.
The decision of EBA shall take into account points (a) and (b) of the first subparagraph.
The four-month period shall be deemed to be the conciliation period within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010. EBA shall take its decision within one month.
The matter shall not be referred to EBA after the end of the four-month period or after a joint decision has been reached.
In the absence of an EBA decision within one month of the referral of the matter, the decision of the resolution authority of the resolution entity shall apply.
Where a joint decision is not taken within four months because of a disagreement concerning the level of the requirement referred to in Article 45f to be applied to any entity of a resolution group on an individual basis, the decision shall be taken by the resolution authority of that entity, where all of the following conditions are fulfilled:
the views and reservations expressed in writing by the resolution authority of the resolution entity have been duly taken into account; and
where the group-level resolution authority is different from the resolution authority of the resolution entity, the views and reservations expressed in writing by the group-level resolution authority have been duly taken into account.
Where, at the end of the four-month period, the resolution authority of the resolution entity or the group-level resolution authority has referred the matter to EBA in accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010, the resolution authorities responsible for the subsidiaries on an individual basis shall defer their decisions and await any decision that EBA may take in accordance with Article 19(3) of that Regulation, and shall take their decisions in accordance with the decision of EBA. The decision of EBA shall take into account points (a), and (b) of the first subparagraph.
The four-month period shall be deemed to be the conciliation period within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010. EBA shall take its decision within one month.
The matter shall not be referred to EBA after the end of the four-month period or after a joint decision has been reached.
The resolution authority of the resolution entity or the group-level resolution authority shall not refer the matter to EBA for binding mediation where the level set by the resolution authority of the subsidiary:
is within 2 % of the total risk exposure amount calculated in accordance with Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the requirement referred to in Article 45e; and
complies with Article 45c(7).
In the absence of an EBA decision within one month, the decisions of the resolution authorities of the subsidiaries shall apply.
The joint decision and any decisions taken in the absence of a joint decision shall be reviewed and where relevant updated on a regular basis.
Where a joint decision is not taken within four months because of a disagreement concerning the level of the consolidated resolution group requirement and the level of the requirement to be applied to the resolution group's entities on an individual basis, the following shall apply:
a decision shall be taken on the level of the requirement to be applied to the resolution group's subsidiaries on an individual basis in accordance with paragraph 5;
a decision shall be taken on the level of the consolidated resolution group requirement in accordance with paragraph 4.
The joint decision and any decisions taken in the absence of a joint decision shall be reviewed and where relevant updated on a regular basis.
