Correlation parameter for Intra-bucket correlations for credit spread risk for non-securitisations
In the first subparagraph of Article 325c it is stated that institutions apply a risk factor per issuer and per maturity, irrespective of whether these credit spread rates of the issuer derive from debt instruments or credit default swaps. However, the correlation factor linked to the basis risk is present in article 325ai. Must this value always be equal to 1 since there is no longer a division between the two types of curve as regards risk factors or does this basis risk refer to another type of risk? In this second case to which?

Back-to-Back in regulatory threshold
How should back-to-back trades that net off perfectly when calculating the size of their on- and off-balance-sheet business that is subject to market risk be accounted for? Should both positions be considered in absolute value, both the short and the long position, or should they not be included as the positions perfectly offset each other and do not generate capital requirements for market risk?

Service Downtime
The question refers to the case that an incident with a duration of two hours that disrupts transaction processing occurs around the daily cut off time of same-day transactions processing. Thus, the incident may be of a short duration, but as a result, transactions are booked one day later.
Considering this example, what service downtime should the payment service provider (PSP) indicate in the PSD2 notification? Just the net time of the failure or the total time any payment service users are affected by delayed transactions, i.e. one day?

The risk-weighted exposure amount of the CIU’s exposures in mandate based approach
Could the institution use the information from the CIU management company about the notional amount of derivative positions of CIU to assess the value of those derivatives in calculating risk-weighted exposure amount of CIU when using the mandate based approach in accordance with Article 132a(2) of CRR? In particular, is the institution allowed to use the information from the CIU management company, that CIU doesn’t have derivatives in their portfolio and assess the value of those derivatives as zero in calculating risk-weighted exposure amount of CIU when using the mandate based approach in accordance with Article 132a(2) of CRR?

Validation rule v7371_m and v7372_m
Paragraph 114 in Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2021/451 (ITS on Reporting) states that investors in securitisation positions should report among others columns 0310-0470 in C 14.01. Validation rule v7371_m and v7372_m expects column 0140 and 0230 to be filled in C 14.00 when column 0310 in C 14.01 is filled. We believe however that columns 0140 and 0230 in C 14.00 are only to be filled by originators/multi-sellers and not investors.

Exemption of exposures to public sector entities
In accordance with Article 429a (1) (j) (iii) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR), as modified by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/62, exposures to public sector entities (PSE), treated in accordance with Art. 116 (4) CRR and arising from deposits that the institution is legally obliged to transfer to this PSE for the purpose of funding general interest investment, shall be excluded from the denominator calculation of the institution´s leverage ratio.
Is there any limitation in the type of deposit assets to apply for such exclusion, particularly as regards cash-assimilated instruments (Article 4 (1)(60) CRR), which include certain categories of bonds?
What is meant by “legal obligation” and what creates such obligation? Would contractual or statutory obligation qualify as such? Is there furthermore an example for “general interest investment”?

Approach to determining indirect ownership control powers under the legal definition of a beneficial owner.
What approach to determining the indirect ownership control power under the legal definition of a beneficial owner (“UBO”) as set out in Article 3(6)(a)(i) of Directive (EU) 2015/849 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2015 on the prevention of the use of the financial system for the purposes of money laundering or terrorist financing, as amended by Directive (EU) 2018/843 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 amending Directive (EU) 2015/849 on the prevention of the use of the financial system for the purposes of money laundering or terrorist financing should be applied:
(a) Determining the ‘share’ of indirect control of a UBO by multiplying the shares at each level of control and checking whether the result of this multiplication is more than 25% (multiplication test);
(b) Examining the chain of control whenever a particular link in the ownership chain exceeds the 25% threshold which may, ultimately, lead to a natural person holding more than 25% of the shares or votes in a given indirect parent entity (rolling test); or
(c) Verifying whether there is an entity or person who “controls” the entity having more than 25% of the shares or votes in an entity being evaluated, i.e. holds more than 50% of shares or votes in such entity (dominancy test)?
