How are the three types of sight deposit (current accounts, instant access savings and term-less cash ISAs) to be treated in templates C68.00, C69.00 & C70.00?
There are three templates where there is potential ambiguity around the inclusion or treatment of products that could be considered “sight deposits”: C68.00 – Instant access savings and term-less cash ISAs could potentially be reported in r020 “Sight deposits” or in r090 “Savings accounts without a notice period for withdrawal greater than 30 days”. C69.00 – Personal and business current accounts have no maturity term and cannot be priced in the same way as a true term product therefore could be legitimately excluded from the template; the same is true of instant access savings and term-less cash ISAs, although these could also be reported as overnight maturity from a prudence point of view. C70.00 – As personal and business current accounts have no maturity term the total funding profile calculated including them would be distorted. As per C69.00 instant access savings and term-less cash ISAs also lack terms but could be reported as overnight maturity from a prudence point of view.
The reporting of sight deposits in the templates C 68.00, C 69.00 and C 70.00 of Annex XX of final draft implementing technical standard (ITS) on additional liquidity monitoring metrics under Article 415(3)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (EBA/ITS/2013/11/rev1 (of 24 July 2014)) is as follows:
In template C 68.00, provided that the deposits are placed by retail customers as defined by Article 3(8) Delegated Regulation No 2015/61:
- row 020 shall include all cash deposits that can be immediately withdrawn without notice;
- rows 030, 050 and 060 shall include cash deposits with a fixed term where the maturity should be identified by way of the earliest possible withdrawal date which is contractually allowed;
- rows 080 and 090 shall include deposits where the withdrawal is subject to a notice period according to the respective definitions.
In template C 69.00, provided that the deposits are placed by retail customers as defined by Article 3(8) Delegated Regulation No 2015/61:
- sight deposits should be assumed to mature overnight, therefore the related volume and spreads should be reported in the “overnight bucket” (columns 010 and 020);
- data on term deposits should be included in the time bands according to their original maturity;
- data on deposits with a notice period should be reported in the time buckets corresponding to the first possible date of withdrawal.
For template C 70.00, provided that the deposits are placed by retail customers as defined by Art. 3(8) Delegated Regulation No 2015/61, the explanation for template C 69.00 applies.
