Final Answer:
Where for exposures to corporates no credit assessment of a nominated ECAI is available, Article 122 (2) of Regulation (EU) No 5725/2013 (CRR) is applicable. In this case, if the risk weight assigned is the risk weight of the central government, these exposures shall be included in column 240 of template C 07.00 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 (ITS on Supervisory Reporting).

  • 22 Exposures to multilateral development banks
  • 22 Exposures to corporates
