Treatment of cured defaulted exposures
For the treatment of cured defaulted exposures, a probation period of 90 days with no default triggers must apply before the exposure is moved back to a non-defaulted status. According to Article 178(1)(b CRR) default shall be considered to have occurred with regard to a particular obligor when the obligor is more than 90 days past due on any material credit obligation.
However, if the material arrears fall below the thresholds, the arrears counter will reset to 0. Should the probation period of 90 days with no default triggers apply before the exposure is moved back to a non-defaulted status?
