Final Answer:

The application of FINREP is not determined by the fact that the thresholds set out in Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR) have been exceeded or not. While the fact that these thresholds have not been exceeded can lead to the exclusion of the subsidiary from the scope of prudential consolidation, the application of FINREP is effectively determined by Article 99 (2), (3), and (where required by a competent authority) (6) of the CRR.

To the extent that the application of prudential requirements on a consolidated basis is required based on an institution's situation, this would also, in conjunction with Article 99 (2), (3) and (6), determine the need to apply FINREP.
