Application of the risk weight of 100% to defaulted non-IPRE exposures
Question

For non-IPRE defaulted exposures, is the 100% risk weight (RW) applicable only up to 55% of the property market value (LTV), or up to the full amount of the lien or mortgage value (if lower than the mortgage value)?

Background on the question

Under the revised CRR framework, Article 127(3) provides that a 100% RW applies to the exposure value remaining after specific credit risk adjustments (SCRA) for defaulted non-IPRE exposures secured by residential or commercial immovable property, in accordance with Articles 125 and 126. Is the 100% risk weight specifically capped at a loan-to-value (LTV) threshold of 55% or at the property’s market value (if lower than the mortgage value)? For instance, given a total debt of €100, a mortgage value of €110, and a property market value of €120, 55% of the market value equals €66. It is currently unclear whether the 100% RW should be applied only up to €66 (i.e., the 55% LTV limit) or instead to the entire debt amount of €100, which is below both the mortgage and the market values.
