Search for Q&As

Enquirers can use various factors to search for a Q&A:

  • These include searching by the Q&A ID; legal reference, date submitted, technical standard / guideline, or by keyword if known.
  • Searches can be extended to more than one legal act, topic, technical standard or guidelines by making multiple selections (i.e. pressing 'Ctrl' on your keyboard, and selecting the relevant ones from the drop-down lists by left mouse-click).

Disclaimer:

Q&As refer to the provisions in force on the day of their publication. The EBA does not systematically review published Q&As following the amendment of legislative acts. Users of the Q&A tool should therefore check the date of publication of the Q&A and whether the provisions referred to in the answer remain the same.

Please note that the Q&As related to the supervisory benchmarking exercises have been moved to the dedicated handbook page. You can submit Q&As on this topic here.

Is the definition of “gold bullion”, as amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/1623, more restrictive than the definition previously set forth in the Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR), or this new definition shall be interpreted applying the clarification provided by the EBA in the Q&A 2016_3011?

Volatility Haircuts for Eligible Securitisation Collateral

Does the FCCM approach apply to unrated senior securitisation tranches that qualify as eligible collateral (i.e, as per article 197(1)h, "securitisation positions that are not resecuritisation positions and which are subject to a 100 % risk weight or lower in accordance with Article 261 to Article 264")?  If so, which supervisory volatility haircuts apply since there is no CQS associated with these under Sec- SA?  In addition, the new securtisation mappings of ECAI Ratings CQS 1-18 under Sec-ERBA have not been translated into Table 1 of Article 224, which continues to refer to CQS 1-4 seemingly under the old securitisation rules.  Which supervisory volatility haircuts apply under the new CQS mapping for rated securitisation tranches (as described in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1801 of 11 October 2016, as Amended by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2365 of 2 December 2022)?

Risk weighting attributed to gold in the form of a commodity

Is the definition of 'gold bullion', as recently amended by Regulation (EU) 2024/1623, consistent with the previous definition of 'gold' under Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR), as clarified by EBA Q&A 2016_3011, in the sense that it includes all forms of gold commodities (such as bars, ingots, jewels, manufactured products, and coins) whose value is determined exclusively by gold content—defined by purity and mass—regardless of their form, provided that no numismatic, artistic, branding, or other extrinsic value is attributed?
