CONVENTION

  1. (5)

    For the purposes of Annex III and Annex IV a data point shadowed in grey shall mean that this data point is not requested or that it is not possible to report it. In Annex IV a row or a column with references shadowed in black means that the related data points should not be submitted by those institutions that follow those references in that row or column.

  2. (6)

    Templates in Annex III and Annex IV include implicit validation rules which are defined in the templates themselves through the use of conventions.

  3. (7)

    The use of brackets in the label of an item in a template means that this item is to be subtracted to obtain a total, but it does not mean that it shall be reported as negative.

  4. (8)

    Items that shall be reported in negative are identified in the compiling templates by including "(–)" at the beginning of their label such as in "(–) Treasury shares".

  5. (9)

    In the "Data Point Model" (hereinafter DPM) for financial information reporting templates described in Annex III and IV, every data point (cell) has a "base item" to which the "credit/debit" attribute is allocated. This allocation ensures that all entities who report data points follow the "sign convention" and allows to know the "credit/debit" attribute that corresponds to each data point.

  6. (10)

    Schematically, this convention works as in Table 1.

    The classification of the exposures incurred jointly by more than one obligor shall be done in accordance with paragraph 36 in Part 1.

  3. (44)

    Reporting of NACE codes shall be done with the first level of disaggregation, (by "section").

  4. (45)

    For debt instruments at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, "Gross carrying amount" shall mean the carrying amount excluding "Accumulated impairment". For debt instruments at fair value through profit and loss, "Gross carrying amount" shall mean the carrying amount excluding "Accumulated changes in fair value due to credit risk".

  5. (46)

    "Accumulated impairment" shall be reported for financial assets at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. "Accumulated changes in fair value due to credit risk" figures shall be reported for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. "Accumulated impairment" shall include specific allowances for individually and collectively assessed financial assets as defined in paragraphs 36 and 37as well as "Collective allowances for incurred but not reported losses" as defined in paragraph 38 but do not include "Accumulated write-offs" amounts as defined in paragraph 49 of this Part.

7.

FINANCIAL ASSETS SUBJECT TO IMPAIRMENT THAT ARE PAST DUE OR IMPAIRED (7)

  1. (47)

    Debt instruments that are past due but not impaired at the reporting reference date shall be reported in the accounting portfolios subject to impairment. According to IFRS or compatible National GAAP, these accounting portfolios comprise the categories "Available for sale", "Loans and receivables", and "Held-to-maturity". According to National GAAP based on BAD, these accounting portfolios comprise also "Non-trading debt instruments measured at a cost-based method" and "Other non-trading non-derivative financial assets".

  2. (48)

    Assets qualify as past due when counterparties have failed to make a payment when contractually due. The amounts of such assets shall be reported and broken down according to the number of days past due. The past due analysis shall not include any impaired assets. The carrying amount of impaired financial assets shall be reported separately from the past due assets.

  3. (49)

    The column "Accumulated write-offs" includes the cumulative amount of principal and past due interest of any debt instrument that the institution is no longer recognising because they are considered uncollectible, independently of the portfolio in which they were included. These amounts shall be reported until the total extinguishment of all the institution's rights (by expiry of the statute-of–limitations period, forgiveness or other causes) or until recovery.

  4. (50)

    "Write-offs" could be caused both by reductions of the carrying amount of financial assets recognised directly in profit or loss as well as by reductions in the amounts of the allowance accounts for credit losses taken against the carrying amount of financial assets.

8.

BREAKDOWN OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES (8)

  1. (51)

    As "Deposits" are defined in the same way as in the ECB BSI Regulation, regulated savings deposits shall be classified in accordance with the ECB BSI Regulation and distributed according to the counterparty. In particular, non-transferable sight savings deposits, which although legally redeemable at demand are subject to significant penalties and restrictions and have features that are very close to overnight deposits, are classified as deposits redeemable at notice.

  2. (52)

    "Debt securities issued" shall be disaggregated into the following type of products:

    1. (a)

      "Certificates of deposits" are securities that enable the holders to withdraw funds from an account,

    2. (b)

      "Asset backed securities" according to article 4(1)(61) of the CRR,

    3. (c)

      "Covered Bonds" according to article 129(1) of the CRR,

    4. (d)

      "Hybrid contracts" comprise contracts with embedded derivatives,

    5. (e)

      "Other debt securities issued" includes debt securities not recorded in the previous lines and distinguishes convertible and non convertible instruments.

  3. (53)

    "Subordinated financial liabilities" issued are treated in the same way as other financial liabilities incurred. Subordinated liabilities issued in the form of securities are classified as "Debt securities issued", whereas subordinated liabilities in the form of deposits are classified as "Deposits".

  4. (54)

    Template 8.2 includes the carrying amount of "Deposits" and "Debt securities issued" that meet the definition of subordinated debt classified by accounting portfolios. "Subordinated debt" instruments provide a subsidiary claim on the issuing institution that can only be exercised after all claims with a higher status have been satisfied [ECB BSI Regulation].

9.

LOAN COMMITMENTS, FINANCIAL GUARANTEES AND OTHER COMMITMENTS (9)

  1. (55)

    Off-balance sheet exposures include the off-balance sheet items listed in Annex I of the CRR. Off-balance sheet exposures shall be broken-down in loan commitments given, financial guarantees given, and other commitments given.

  2. (56)

    Information on loan commitments, financial guarantees, and other commitments given and received include both revocable and irrevocable commitments.

  3. (57)

    "Loan commitments" are firm commitments to provide credit under pre-specified terms and conditions, except those that are derivatives because they can be settled net in cash or by delivering or issuing another financial instrument. The following items of Annex I of the CRR shall be classified as "Loan commitments":

    1. (a)

      "Forward deposits".

    2. (b)

      "Undrawn credit facilities" which comprise agreements to "lend" or provide "acceptance facilities" under pre-specified terms and conditions.

  4. (58)

    "Financial guarantees" are contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder of a loss it incurs, because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Under IFRS or compatible National GAAP, these contracts meet the IAS 39.9 and IFRS 4.A definition of financial guarantee contracts. The following items of Annex I of the CRR shall be classified as "financial guarantees":

    1. (a)

      "Guarantees having the character of credit substitute".

    2. (b)

      "Credit derivatives" that meet the definition of financial guarantee.

    3. (c)

      "Irrevocable standby letters of credit having the character of credit substitutes".

  5. (59)

    "Other commitments" includes the following items of Annex I of the CRR:

    1. (a)

      "Unpaid portion of partly-paid shares and securities".

    2. (b)

      "Documentary credits issued or confirmed".

    3. (c)

      Trade finance Off-balance sheet items.

    4. (d)

      "Documentary credits in which underlying shipment acts as collateral and other self-liquidating transactions".

    5. (e)

      "Warranties and indemnities" (including tender and performance bonds) and "guarantees not having the character of credit substitutes".

    6. (f)

      "Shipping guarantees, customs and tax bonds".

    7. (g)

      Note issuance facilities (NIFs) and revolving underwritings facilities (RUFs).

    8. (h)

      "Undrawn credit facilities" which comprise agreements to "lend" or provide "acceptance facilities" when the terms and conditions are not pre-specified.

    9. (i)

      "Undrawn credit facilities" which comprise agreements to "purchase securities" or "provide guarantees".

    10. (j)

      "Undrawn credit facilities for tender and performance guarantees".

    11. (k)

      "Other off-balance sheet items" in Annex I of the CRR.

  6. (60)

    Under IFRS or compatible National GAAP, the following item are recognised in the balance sheet and, consequently, should not be reported as off-balance sheet exposures:

    1. (a)

      "Credit derivatives" that do not meet the definition of financial guarantees are "derivatives" under IAS 39.

    2. (b)

      "Acceptances" are obligations by an institution to pay on maturity the face value of a bill of exchange, normally covering the sale of goods. Consequently, they are classified as "trade receivables" on the balance sheet

    3. (c)

      "Endorsements on bills" that do not meet the criteria for derecogniton under IAS 39.

    4. (d)

      "Transactions with recourse" that do not meet the criteria for derecogniton under IAS 39.

    5. (e)

      "Assets purchased under outright forward purchase agreements" are "derivatives" under IAS 39.

    6. (f)

      "Asset sale and repurchase agreements as defined in Article 12 (3) and (5) of Directive 86/635/EEC". In these contracts, the transferee has the option, but not the obligation, to return the assets at a price agreed in advance on a date specified (or to be specified). Therefore, these contracts meet the definition of derivatives under IAS 39.9.

  7. (61)

    "of which: defaulted" shall include the nominal amount of those loan commitments, financial guarantees and other commitments given whose counterparty has incurred in default according to Article 178 of the CRR.

  8. (62)

    For off-balance sheet exposures, the "Nominal amount" is the amount that best represents the institution's maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account of any collateral held or other credit enhancements. In particular, for financial guarantees given, the nominal amount is the maximum amount the entity could have to pay if the guarantee is called on. For loan commitments, the nominal amount is the undrawn amount that the institution has committed to lend. Nominal amounts are exposure values before applying conversion factors and credit risk mitigation techniques.

  9. (63)

    In template 9.2, for loan commitments received, the nominal amount is the total undrawn amount that the counterparty has committed to lend to the institution. For other commitments received the nominal amount is the total amount committed by the other party in the transaction. For financial guarantees received, the "maximum amount of the guarantee that can be considered" is the maximum amount the counterparty could have to pay if the guarantee is called on. When a financial guarantee received has been issued by more than one guarantor, the guaranteed amount shall be reported only once in this template; the guaranteed amount shall be allocated to guarantor that is more relevant for the mitigation of credit risk.

10.

DERIVATIVES (10 AND 11)

  1. (64)

    The carrying amount and the notional amount of the derivatives held for trading and the derivatives held for hedge accounting shall be reported broken down by type of underlying risk, type of market (over-the-counter versus organised markets) and type of product.

  2. (65)

    Institutions shall report the derivatives held for hedge accounting broken down by type of hedge.

  3. (66)

    Derivatives included in hybrid instruments which have been separated from the host contract shall be reported in templates 10 and 11 according to the nature of the derivative. The amount of the host contract is not included in these templates. However, if the hybrid instrument is measured at fair value through profit or loss, the contract as a whole shall be included in the category of held for trading or financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss (and, thus, the embedded derivatives are not reported in 10 and 11).

  4. 10.1.

    Classification of derivatives by type of risk

    1. (67)

      All derivatives shall be classified into the following risk categories:

      1. (a)

        Interest rate: Interest rate derivatives are contracts related to an interest-bearing financial instrument whose cash flows are determined by referencing interest rates or another interest rate contract such as an option on a futures contract to purchase a Treasury bill. This category is restricted to those deals where all the legs are exposed to only one currency's interest rate. Thus it excludes contracts involving the exchange of one or more foreign currencies such as cross-currency swaps and currency options, and other contracts whose predominant risk characteristic is foreign exchange risk, which are to be reported as foreign exchange contracts. Interest rate contracts include forward rate agreements, single-currency interest rate swaps, interest rate futures, interest rate options (including caps, floors, collars and corridors), interest rate swaptions and interest rate warrants.

      2. (b)

        Equity: Equity derivatives are contracts that have a return, or a portion of their return, linked to the price of a particular equity or to an index of equity prices.

      3. (c)

        Foreign exchange and gold: These derivatives include contracts involving the exchange of currencies in the forward market and the exposure to gold. They therefore cover outright forwards, foreign exchange swaps, currency swaps (including cross-currency interest rate swaps), currency futures, currency options, currency swaptions and currency warrant. Foreign exchange derivatives include all deals involving exposure to more than one currency, whether in interest rates or exchange rates. Gold contracts include all deals involving exposure to that commodity.

      4. (d)

        Credit: Credit derivatives are contracts that do not meet the definition of financial guarantees and in which the payout is linked primarily to some measure of the creditworthiness of a particular reference credit. The contracts specify an exchange of payments in which at least one of the two legs is determined by the performance of the reference credit. Payouts can be triggered by a number of events, including a default, a rating downgrade or a stipulated change in the credit spread of the reference asset.

      5. (e)

        Commodity: These derivatives are contracts that have a return, or a portion of their return, linked to the price of, or to a price index of, a commodity such as a precious metal (other than gold), petroleum, lumber or agricultural products.

      6. (f)

        Other: These derivatives are any other derivative contracts, which do not involve an exposure to foreign exchange, interest rate, equity, commodity or credit risk such as climatic derivatives or insurance derivatives.

    2. (68)

      When a derivative is influenced by more than one type of underlying risk, the instrument shall be allocated to the most sensitive type of risk. For multi-exposure derivatives, in cases of uncertainty, the deals shall be allocated according to the following order of precedence:

      1. (a)

        Commodities: All derivatives transactions involving a commodity or commodity index exposure, whether or not they involve a joint exposure in commodities and any other risk category which may include foreign exchange, interest rate or equity, shall be reported in this category.

      2. (b)

        Equities: With the exception of contracts with a joint exposure to commodities and equities, which are to be reported as commodities, all derivatives transactions with a link to the performance of equities or equity indices shall be reported in the equity category. Equity deals with exposure to foreign exchange or interest rates should be included in this category.

      3. (c)

        Foreign exchange and gold: This category includes all derivatives transactions (with the exception of those already reported in the commodity or equity categories) with exposure to more than one currency, be it pertaining either to interest-bearing financial instruments or exchange rates.

    10.2.

    Amounts to be reported for derivatives

    1. (69)

      The "carrying amount" for all derivatives (hedging or trading) is the fair value. Derivatives with a positive fair value (above zero) are "financial assets" and derivatives with a negative fair value (below zero) are "financial liabilities". The "carrying amount" shall be reported separately for derivatives with a positive fair value ("financial assets") and for those with a negative fair value ("financial liabilities"). At the date of initial recognition, a derivative is classified as "financial asset" or "financial liability" according to its initial fair value. After initial recognition, as the fair value of a derivative increases or decreases, the terms of the exchange may become either favourable to the institution (and the derivative is classified as "financial asset") or unfavourable (and the derivative is classified as "financial liability").

    2. (70)

      The "Notional amount" is the gross nominal of all deals concluded and not yet settled at the reference date. In particular, the following shall be taken account to determine the notional amount:

      1. (a)

        For contracts with variable nominal or notional principal amounts, the basis for reporting is the nominal or notional principal amounts at the reference date.

      2. (b)

        The notional amount value to be reported for a derivative contract with a multiplier component is the contract effective notional amount or par value.

      3. (c)

        Swaps: The notional amount of a swap is the underlying principal amount upon which the exchange of interest, foreign exchange or other income or expense is based.

      4. (d)

        Equity and commodity-linked contracts: The notional amount to be reported for an equity or commodity contract is the quantity of the commodity or equity product contracted for purchase or sale multiplied by the contract price of a unit. The notional amount to be reported for commodity contracts with multiple exchanges of principal is the contractual amount multiplied by the number of remaining exchanges of principal in the contract.

      5. (e)

        Credit derivatives: The contract amount to be reported for credit derivatives is the nominal value of the relevant reference credit.

      6. (f)

        Digital options have a predefined payoff which can be either a monetary amount or a number of contracts of an underlying. The notional amount for digital options is defined as either the predefined monetary amount or the fair value of the underlying at the reference date.

    3. (71)

      The column "Notional amount" of derivatives includes, for each line item, the sum of the notional amounts of all contracts in which the institution is counterparty, independently of whether the derivatives are considered assets or liabilities on the face of the balance sheet. All notional amounts shall be reported regardless whether the fair value of derivatives is positive, negative or equal to zero. Netting among the notional amounts is not allowed.

    4. (72)

      The "Notional amount" shall be reported by "total" and by "of which: sold" for the line items: "OTC options", "Organised market options", "Commodity" and "Other". The item "of which sold" includes the notional amounts (strike price) of the contracts in which the counterparties (option holders) of the institution (option writer) have the right to exercise the option and for the items related to credit risk derivatives, the notional amounts of the contracts in which the institution (protection seller) has sold (gives) protection to their counterparties (protection buyers).

    10.3.

    Derivatives classified as "economic hedges"

    1. (73)

      Derivatives that are not effective hedging instruments in accordance with IAS 39 should be included in the "held for trading" portfolio. This applies also to derivatives held for hedging purposes not meeting the requirements in IAS 39 to be effective hedging instruments as well as to derivatives linked to unquoted equity instruments whose fair value cannot be measured reliably.

    2. (74)

      Derivatives "held for trading" that meet the definition of "economic hedges" shall be reported separately for each type of risk. The item "economic hedges" includes those derivatives that are classified as "held for trading" but they are not part of the trading book as defined in Article 4(1)(86) of the CRR. This item does not include derivatives for proprietary trading.

    10.4.

    Breakdown of derivatives by counterparty sector

    1. (75)

      The carrying amount and the total notional amount of derivatives held for trading, and also of derivatives held for hedge accounting, which are traded in the OTC market, shall be reported by counterparty using the following categories:

      1. (a)

        "credit institutions",

      2. (b)

        "other financial corporations", and

      3. (c)

        "rest" comprising all other counterparties.

    2. (76)

      All OTC derivatives, without regarding the type of risk to which they are related, shall be broken down by these counterparties. Counterparty breakdown for credit risk derivatives refers to the sector where the counterparty of the institution in the contract (buyer or seller of protection) is allocated.

11.

MOVEMENTS IN ALLOWANCES FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND IMPAIRMENT OF EQUITY INSTRUMENTS (12)

  1. (77)

    "Increases due to amounts set aside for estimated loan losses during the period" shall be reported when, for the main category of assets or the counterparty, the estimation of the impairment for the period result in the recognition of net expenses; that is, for the given category or counterparty, the increases in the impairment for the period exceed the decreases. "Decreases due to amounts reversed for estimated loan losses during the period" shall be reported when, for the main category of assets or counterparty, the estimation of the impairment for the period result in the recognition of net income; that is, for the given category or counterparty, the decreases in the impairment for the period exceed the increases.

  2. (78)

    As explained in paragraph 50 of this Part, "write-offs" may be done either by recognising directly in the statement of profit or loss the reduction in the amount of the financial asset (without using an allowance account) or by reducing the amount of the allowance accounts related to a financial asset. "Decreases due to amounts taken against allowances" means decreases in the accumulated amount of allowances due to "write-offs" made during the period because the related debt instruments are considered uncollectible. "Value adjustments recorded directly to the statement of profit or loss" are "write-offs" made during the period directly against the amount of the related financial asset.

12.

COLLATERAL AND GUARANTEES RECEIVED (13)

12.1.

Breakdown of loans and advances by collateral and guarantees (13.1)

  1. (79)

    The pledges and guarantees backing the loans and advances shall be reported by type of pledges: mortgage loans and other collateralised loans, and by financial guarantees. The loans and advances shall be broken down by counterparties.

  2. (80)

    In Template 13.1, the "maximum amount of the collateral or guarantee that can be considered" shall be reported. The sum of the amounts of a financial guarantee and/or collateral shown in the related columns of template 13.1 shall not exceed the carrying amount of the related loan.

  3. (81)

    For reporting loans and advances according to the type of pledge the following definitions shall be used:

    1. (a)

      within "Mortgage loans [Loans collateralised by immovable property]", "Residential" includes loans secured by residential immovable property and "Commercial" loans secured by pledges of commercial immovable property; in both cases as defined in the CRR.

    2. (b)

      within "Other collateralised loans", "Cash [Debt instruments issued]" includes pledges of deposits in or debt securities issued by the institution, and "Rest" includes pledges of other securities or assets.

    3. (c)

      "Financial guarantees received" include contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the institution of a loss it incurs, because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.

  4. (82)

    For loans and advances that have simultaneously more than one type of collateral or guarantee, the amount of the "Maximum collateral/guarantee that can be considered" shall be allocated according to its quality starting from the one with the best quality.

12.2.

Collateral obtained by taking possession during the period [held at the reporting date] (13.2)

  1. (83)

    This template includes the carrying amount of the collateral that has been obtained between the beginning and the end of the reference period and that remain recognised in the balance sheet at the reference date.

12.3.

Collateral obtained by taking possession [tangible assets] accumulated (13.3)

  1. (84)

    "Foreclosure [tangible assets]" is the cumulative carrying amount of tangible assets obtained by taking possession of collateral that remains recognised in the balance sheet at the reference date excluding those classified as "Property, plant and equipment".

13.

FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AT FAIR VALUE (14)

  1. (85)

    Institutions shall report the value of financial instruments measured at fair value according to the hierarchy provided by in IFRS 13.72.

  2. (86)

    "Change in fair value for the period" shall include gains or losses from remeasurements of the instruments in the period. These gains and losses are reported as for inclusion in the statement of profit or loss; thus, the amounts reported are before taxes.

  3. (87)

    "Accumulated change in fair value before taxes" shall include the amount of gains or losses from remeasurements of the instruments accumulated from the initial recognition to the reference date.

14.

DERECOGNITION AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES ASSOCIATED WITH TRANSFERRED FINANCIAL ASSETS (15)

  1. (88)

    Template 15 includes information on transferred financial assets of which part or all do not qualify for derecognition, and financial assets entirely derecognised for which the institution retains servicing rights.

  2. (89)

    The associated liabilities shall be reported according to the portfolio in which the related transferred financial assets were included in the assets side and not according to the portfolio in which they were included in the liability side.

  3. (90)

    The column "Amounts derecognised for capital purposes" includes the carrying amount of the financial assets recognised for accounting purposes but derecognised for prudential purposes because the institution is treating them as securitisation positions for capital purposes in accordance with Article 109 of the CRR.

  4. (91)

    "Repurchase agreements" ("repos") are transactions in which the institution receives cash in exchange for financial assets sold at a given price under a commitment to repurchase the same (or identical) assets at a fixed price on a specified future date. Amounts received by the institution in exchange for financial assets transferred to a third party ("temporary acquirer") shall be classified under "repurchase agreements" where there is a commitment to reverse the operation and not merely an option to do so. Repurchase agreements also include repo-type operations which may include:

    1. (a)

      Amounts received in exchange for securities temporarily transferred to a third party in the form of securities lending against cash collateral.

    2. (b)

      Amounts received in exchange for securities temporarily transferred to a third party in the form of sale/buy-back agreement.

  5. (92)

    "Repurchase agreements" ("repos") and "reverse repurchase loans" ("reverse repos") involve cash received or loaned out by the institution.

  6. (93)

    In a securitisation transaction, when the transferred financial assets are derecognized, institutions shall declare the gains (losses) generated by the item within the income statement corresponding to the "accounting portfolios" in which the financial assets were included prior to their derecognition.

15.

BREAKDOWN OF SELECTED STATEMENT OF PROFIT OR LOSS ITEMS (16)

  1. (94)

    For selected items of the income statement further breakdowns of gains (or income) and losses (or expenses) shall be reported.

  2. 15.1.

    Interest income and expenses by instrument and counterparty sector (16.1)

    1. (95)

      The interests shall be broken down both by interest income on financial and other assets and interest expenses on financial and other liabilities. Interest income on financial assets includes interest income on derivatives held for trading, debt securities, and loans and advances. Interest expenses on financial liabilities includes interest expenses on derivatives held for trading, deposits, debt securities issued and other financial liabilities. All instruments in the various portfolios are taken into account except those included in the items "Derivatives — Hedge accounting" not used to hedge interest rate risk.

    2. (96)

      Interest on derivatives held for trading includes the amounts related to those derivatives held for trading which qualify as "economic hedges" that are included as interest income or expenses to correct the income and expense of the hedged financial instruments from an economic but not accounting point of view.

    15.2.

    Gains or losses on derecognition of financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss by instrument (16.2)

    1. (97)

      Gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss shall be broken down by type of financial instrument and by accounting portfolio. For each item, the net realised gain or loss stemming from the derecognised transaction shall be reported. The net amount represents the difference between realised gains and realised losses.

    15.3.

    Gains or losses on financial assets and liabilities held for trading by instrument (16.3)

    1. (98)

      Gains and losses on financial assets and liabilities held for trading shall be broken down by type of instrument; each item of the breakdown is the net realised and unrealised amount (gains minus losses) of the financial instrument.

    15.4.

    Gains or losses on financial assets and liabilities held for trading by risk (16.4)

    1. (99)

      Gains and losses on financial assets and financial liabilities held for trading shall also be broken down by type of risk; each item of the breakdown is the net realised and unrealised amount (gains minus losses) of the underlying risk (interest rate, equity, foreign exchange, credit, commodity and other) associated to the exposure, including related derivatives. Gains and losses from exchange differences shall be included in the item in which the rest of gains and losses arising from the converted instrument are included. Gains and losses on assets and liabilities other than derivatives shall be included as follows:

      1. (a)

        Interest rate instruments: including trading of loans and advances, deposits and debt securities (held or issued);

      2. (b)

        Equity instruments: including trading of shares, quotas of UCITS and other equity instruments;

      3. (c)

        Foreign exchange trading: including exclusively trading on foreign exchanges;

      4. (d)

        Credit risk instruments: including trading of credit link notes;

      5. (e)

        Commodities: this item includes only derivatives because commodities held with trading intent shall be reported under "Other assets" not under "Financial assets held for trading".

      6. (f)

        Other: including trading of financial instruments which cannot be classified in other breakdowns.

    15.5.

    Gains or losses on financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value to profit or loss by instrument (16.5)

    1. (100)

      Gains and losses on financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss shall be broken down by type of instrument. Institutions shall report the net realised and unrealised and the amount of change in fair value in the period due to changes in the credit risk (own credit risk of the borrower or issuer).

    15.6.
