5.1 Collateral

5.1.1 Agunan yang diperbolahkan dalam Basel I

Collateral (agunan) merupakan aktiva yang dijaminkan oleh


seorang debitur untuk menjamin suatu kredit, dan agunan
tersebut dapat disita jika terjadi gagal bayar (default).
Basel II memperbolehkan macam agunan (kadang disebut
security) yang lebih luas dibanding Basel I. Basel II
memperbolehkan jaminan baik aset finansial maupun fisik,
selain juga piutang dagang (receivables) sebagai agunan
Agunan itu sendiri nilainya dapat berfluktuasi. Sebagai contoh,
garansi finansial dipengaruhi oleh kualitas kredit dari penjamin
(guarantor), dan agunan non-finansial seperti real estate nilainya
mungkin berfluktuasi. Untuk menyesuaikan nilai agunan finansial
Basel II mengusulkan menggunakan haircuts.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.1 Agunan yang diperbolehkan dalam Basel I

Suatu pengurangan nilai agunan dari nilai pasarnya


disebut haircut.
Alasan atas haircut adalah haircut diperlukan untuk
mempertimbangkan perubahan potensial nilai dari
agunan dari waktu ke waktu. Jadi haitcut tergantung pada
bebarapa faktor seperti jenin agunan, term of the
transaction dan likuiditasnya, selain juga seberapa
agunan dinilai kembali. (lihak seksi 5.1.6).
There are different regimes for collateral use and
valuation, and these are related to the approach the bank
takes in calculating its credit risk.

5.1 Collateral

5.1.1 Eligible collateral under Basel I

Candidates will recall that the Basel II Accord allows three


approaches for calculating credit risk capital. These are:

the Standardised Approach


the Foundation IRB Approach
the Advanced IRB Approach.

There are also three techniques for reducing credit risk


capital due to the presence of collateral. They are:

the Simple Approach


the Comprehensive Approach
the Advanced Comprehensive Approach.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.1 Eligible collateral under Basel I

The Simple Approach is similar to the 1988 Basel I Accord


approach to collateral. For the collateralized portion of the
exposure, the Approach substitutes the risk weighting of the
collateral for the risk weight of the counterparty. Haircuts are not
used under the Simple Approach.

The Comprehensive Approach allows a further offset of collateral


against exposures by reducing the exposure amount by the value
ascribed to the collateral, after the application of haircuts.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.1 Eligible collateral under Basel I

The Advanced Comprehensive Approach also reduces the


exposure amount by the value ascribed to the collateral and allows
banks to:

justify a very wide range of collateral usage, and


produce their own estimates of haircuts.

A bank can use any of the three approaches for collateral if it uses
either the Standardised or the IRB Foundation Approach to
calculate its credit risk capital.

If the bank adopts the Advanced IRB Approach then it must use
one of the two Comprehensive approaches for the valuation and
use of collateral.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.2 General issues

Legal certainty

All documentation in support of credit risk management must be


legally enforceable in all relevant jurisdictions. All documentation in
support of the collateral offered must also comply with this rule.

Quality of counterparty and collateral values

The credit quality of the counterparty and the value of the collateral
must not be closely related to one another, e.g. an oil refinery
borrower should not use the refinery plant and equipment as
collateral.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.2 General issues

Double counting

If the capital allocation has been calculated using a credit grade of


the borrower that reflects the collateral pledged against the loan,
then the collateral cannot also be used to mitigate the credit risk of
the borrowing.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.2 General issues

On-balance sheet netting

For banks that have legally enforceable netting arrangements for


loans and deposits, capital requirements are based on the net
exposure.

For example, in some jurisdictions a loan made to a counterparty,


and a deposit taken from the same counterparty, can be offset in
the event of the liquidation (bankruptcy) of the borrower, subject to
the counterparty signing a netting agreement.

On default the counterpartys loan and deposit can be netted by the


bank, which then claims only for the net amount owed to it by the
bankruptcy of the borrower.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.2 General issues

A guarantee is a legal contract by which one party (party


A) assumes responsibility for specific debts or obligations
of another party (party B) in the event they are not
discharged by that party (B).

Under Basel II when guarantees are taken as collateral they are


treated in the same way as in Basel I. The risk weight of the
guarantor is substituted for the risk weight of the original borrower.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.2 General issues

In Basel II, however, the range of guarantors has been extended to


include:

all sovereigns with a lower risk weight than that of the borrower
banks with a lower risk weight than that of the borrower, and
non-banks with a lower risk weight than that of the borrower.

Non-banks must have a minimum credit grade of A-, or the


equivalent probability of default (if the Foundation IRB Approach is
being used see Section 4.2).

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.2 General issues

There are a series of operational requirements for guarantees:

a guarantee must represent a direct claim on a guarantor


the guarantee must be referenced to a specific exposure
payment under the guarantee must not require legal action
the guarantee must be explicitly documented
if the guarantee covers principal only, other amounts must be
treated as unsecured.

There are also additional requirements for credit derivative


instruments that can effectively be used as guarantees.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.3 Maturity mismatches of collateral

Under Basel I the maturity of collateral was required to match or


exceed the maturity of the underlying exposure to which it related.
However, under Basel II all collateral maturity mismatches are
allowed, i.e. the maturity of the collateral may be less than that of
the underlying exposure provided:

the collateral and the underlying exposure must cover an original


period of at least one year, and
the collateral and the underlying exposure must both have a
residual maturity of at least three months.

Once these conditions are met, the collateral treatment of the


exposure can continue for the period that the collateral is available.
It is important to note that the maturity mismatch of collateral is only
allowed under the Comprehensive approaches.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.4 Use of the approaches for collateral recognition

Banks may use the Simple or either of the


Comprehensive approaches to collateral in their banking
book (but not both).
The trading book must be subject to a Comprehensive
approach.

Local supervisors may require banks adopting the Advanced IRB


Approach and a VaR approach for market risk to use the Advanced
Comprehensive Approach (as the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System in the United States does).

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.5 The Simple Approach

Under the Simple Approach, the risk weight of the


instrument which is collateralizing or partly collateralizing
the exposure is substituted for the risk weight of the
counterparty.

Eligible financial collateral includes:

cash, plus Certificates of Deposit (CDs) and deposits in the name


of leading banks

gold

publicly rated debt securities issued by sovereign banks and other


entities, subject to minimum rating grades
Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.
5.1 Collateral

5.1.5 The Simple Approach

Eligible financial collateral includes:

unrated bank debt securities, (e.g. bonds) issued on a recognized


stock exchange

equities and convertible bonds included in a main market index,


(e.g. the Jakarta Composite, the FTSE 100 or Dow Jones Industrial
Average)

mutual fund shares and Undertakings for Collective Investment of


Transferable Securities (UCITS), subject to daily quotes being
available and certain constraints.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.5 The Simple Approach

For collateral to be recognized in the Simple Approach it must be


pledged for the life of the exposure and must be revalued every six
months.

The collateralized portion of the exposure has a minimum risk


weight of 20% with the following exceptions:

certain wholesale market collateralized transactions

transactions collateralized by cash and certain government


securities.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach

Financial collateral

Under the Comprehensive Approach financial collateral includes, in


addition to that in the Simple Approach, the following:

equities and convertible bonds which are not included in a main


index, but which are listed on a recognized stock exchange

mutual funds and UCITS which include equities or convertible


bonds as above.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach

Standard collateral haircuts

Standard collateral haircuts reduce the value of the collateral that


can then be offset against the underlying exposure, and thus
potentially reduce the loss given default to zero (see Section 4.2).

Table 5.1 below shows the standard haircuts for financial collateral
with the following public credit ratings.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach

The (additional) standard supervisory haircut for currency risk,


where exposure and collateral are denominated in different
currencies, is 8%.

Data and required calculations

All of the above standard haircuts are based on the following


conditions being met:

a ten-business day holding period, and


daily mark-to-market (as it may take up to ten days to liquidate the
position).

If these conditions are not met, then larger haircuts may be used.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach - example

Bank U lends EUR 1 million to a corporate customer who wishes to


use US dollars as collateral. Bank Us customer will need to pledge
approximately USD 1.4 million of cash as collateral, assuming a
EUR/USD exchange rate of 1.28.

Loan = EUR 1,000,000


Standard haircut = 1,000,000 x 8% = EUR 80,000

USD cash collateral = (1,000,000 + 80,000 ) x 1.28 =


USD 1,382,400

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach

Non-financial collateral

Non-financial collateral includes:

real estate
receivables (commercial debts owed to a company)
other collateral at the local supervisors discretion.

Under the Comprehensive Approach, a bank taking non-financial


collateral is required to adjust both the amount of the exposure and
the value of the collateral.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach

Non-financial collateral does not operate in the same way as


financial collateral. For financial collateral a haircut to value can,
after adjustment for the haircut, fully substitute for the underlying
exposure. This reduces the LGD to zero for whatever part of the
underlying exposure is collateralized.

For non-financial collateral LGD can only be reduced to:

Collateral Loss given default


Real estate 35% of the original amount
Receivables 35% of the original amount
Other 40% of the original amount

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach

In addition, an over-collateralization factor is required:

Collateral Over-collateralization factor %


Real estate 140
Receivables 125
Other 140

In this way the value of the collateral received in support of the


counterparty is adjusted to take into account future fluctuations in
the value of the security, thus achieving the same result as a
haircut.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.6 The Comprehensive Approach - example

Bank M lends USD 100,000 to a customer who wishes to


collateralize the loan fully with a pledge of receivables. In order to
cover a loan of USD 100,000 the receivables would need to be for
a value of USD 125,000 (the original loan multiplied by the over-
collateralization factor of 125%).

The customer pledges USD 125,000 worth of receivables, which


fully collateralizes the loan. For this loan, Bank M is now able to
reduce the loss given default to 35% of the underlying exposure.

Therefore Bank M will use a LGD of USD 35,000 as input into its
IRB Approach (either Foundation or Advanced) to calculate the
capital allocation for this exposure.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.7 The Advanced Comprehensive Approach

Under Basel II banks using the Advanced Comprehensive


Approach can produce their own estimate of haircuts.
There is also no restriction on the types of collateral,
although banks must provide evidence of its value.

Banks value all investment grade financial collateral (grade BBB


and above) by estimating the volatility of the value of the collateral
instruments and the volatility of any foreign exchange mismatches
applicable on a case-by-case basis.

The Advanced Comprehensive Approach mirrors the Advanced IRB


Approach for credit risk in that both quantitative and qualitative
criteria must be met before it can be implemented.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.7 The Advanced Comprehensive Approach

Quantitative criteria

The quantitative criteria for collateral are:


calculation of collateral haircut values must be at the 99%
confidence level
minimum holding periods must be set for collateral, (i.e. collateral
cannot be withdrawn on demand)
illiquidity of markets for collateral assets must be reflected in
haircut values
banks must use at least one-year historical price data of collateral
for haircut estimation
haircuts should be recalculated every three months and price data
must be updated accordingly
models of value must capture all material risk factors, (e.g.
interest rates, commodity prices, etc.).

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.7 The Advanced Comprehensive Approach

Qualitative criteria

The qualitative criteria for collateral are:

the minimum holding period for collateral must be reflected in


credit decisions
operating policies and processes for establishing collateral
valuation and taking collateral must be documented
risk measurement methods and internal exposure limits must
reflect collateral taken.

The collateral risk measurement system should be independently


reviewed at least annually (by internal audit).

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.1 Collateral

5.1.8 Use of VaR models

Basel II permits banks to use a VaR model as an alternative to the


Comprehensive approaches discussed above in valuing collateral.

The quantitative and qualitative criteria for this VaR approach are
the same as under the 1998 Market Risk Amendment.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.1 Originating a securitization of assets

Securitization is defined as the process by which a bank


can protect itself against economic shocks by packaging
and then selling, as securities, parts of its lending portfolio
to investors.

In a traditional securitization, the cash flow from an underlying


group (known as a pool) of transactions held on the banks balance
sheet (typically loans) is used to pay interest and principal on at
least two different tranches of a bond issue.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.1 Originating a securitization of assets

A tranche of a bond issue is effectively a separate bond in that


each tranche will be subject to different terms for the payment of
interest and principal.

Consequently each tranche may have a different credit rating. They


will however both appear in the same documentation and will be
secured by recourse to one underlying pool of assets.

A typical securitization may have a large nominal value of high


quality tranches, for example with AA ratings, and a number of
smaller nominal value tranches some with potentially very low
grades, (e.g. with a B rating), or which may be unrated.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.1 Originating a securitization of assets

Each tranche should bear a different credit rating. The


lower rated tranche (known as the junior tranche) will
absorb losses prior to that of the higher rated tranche
(known as the senior tranche).
These tranches are sold to investors and payment of
interest and principal depends on the performance of the
underlying transactions, as well as the claim on their
performance set out in the terms and conditions of the
different tranches.

The Basel II Framework creates a specific set of rules for the


supervision of securitization. These rules apply to both the
originator of the assets that are securitized and to the bank holding
the securitized assets as investments.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.1 Originating a securitization of assets

One of the major concerns of supervisors with respect to


securitization is that the risk inherent in the securitized
assets is not fully transferred to the bondholders, but is
effectively retained by the originating bank. This is known
as implicit support. For example in the past supervisors
believed it was common for banks originating
securitizations to retain the high risk tranches of the
securitized bond issue (typically rated B and below).
Originating banks have also provided first loss
subsidization through such mechanisms as reducing
their charges for servicing the securitized assets (which
are paid by the investors) should defaults occur above a
specified level. This effectively offsets (in part) any losses
the investors would suffer when defaults occur.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.1 Originating a securitization of assets

Requirement for significant risk transfer

For a bank that originates a securitization, capital relief under Basel


II is contingent on the bank creating an effective and significant
transfer of risk to the bondholders.

Basel II does not specifically lay down parameters to quantify the


significant risk transfer. Consequently the supervisory approach to
securitization is likely to be flexible.

The intention is that supervisors can react to innovations (in what is


a rapidly developing market) more rapidly with principles-based
regulation rather than regulation which is too prescriptive.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.2 Investing in a securitization

The origination requirements for supervisors to recognize a risk


transfer by an originating bank are the same for both the
Standardised and IRB approaches.

However, the risk weighting of the same tranche of a securitized


bond could differ depending on the type of investor and/or banks
that retain part of the securitization.

The Basel Committee believes that individual institutions have very


different levels of knowledge and risk management experience, and
that therefore different institutions run different levels of risk when
investing in such securities.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.2 Investing in a securitization

The Standardised Approach

Under the Standardised Approach an investment in a tranche of a


securitization is given the same risk weighting as the loan asset of
an issuer with the same public bond credit grade.

However, higher risk weights are applied for a tranche with an


external rating below investment grade (Baa 3/ BBB-). Any unrated
tranche held must be deducted directly from the capital of the bank;
the deduction being split 50-50 between core and additional capital
(basically Tier 1 and Tier 2). This contrasts with unrated lending
which is weighted at 100%.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.2 Investing in a securitization

A deduction from capital, at the minimum 8% capital


requirement, is effectively a risk weight of 1250%, the
same effective cost (in capital terms) of a loan funded
entirely by equity.
The capital requirement is equal to lending 12.5 (100/8)
times a normal 100% weighted (and thus 8% minimum
capital consuming) loan.
This gives 1250% (12.5 x 100%) as the effective risk
weight (this will be even higher if the banks capital
requirement is above the 8% minimum).
Students may also find it helpful to refer to Table 5.2
column 2.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.2 Investing in a securitization

The IRB Approaches

Banks that use either the Foundation or the Advanced IRB


Approach for calculating their credit risk capital requirement for the
underlying assets must use the same approach for an investment
in a securitization.

In cases where the IRB Approach is not used for that underlying
asset class, the IRB approaches are replaced by three ways of
calculating the capital requirement against the holding of an
investment in a securitization exposure. These are:

the Ratings-Based Approach (RBA)


the Supervisory Formula Approach (SF)
the Internal Assessment Approach (IAA).

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.3 The Ratings-Based Approach

The Ratings-Based Approach must be used if the securitization


exposures are rated, or where a rating can be inferred from another
similar securitization issue.

The RBA mirrors the Standardised Approach for calculating


regulatory capital for loan assets. External public ratings (where
they exist) of any securitization tranche must be used as the basis
for calculating regulatory capital.

However the RBA uses a specific set of risk weights that calibrate
the rating class more finely than the Standardised Approach does
(see Table 5.2, column 4). This creates a greater number of risk-
weight classes.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.3 The Ratings-Based Approach

The RBA rating scale also takes into account the security of a
tranche for payments (see Table 5.2, column 3) and the number of
assets covered by the securitization (known as granularity) of the
underlying assets.

The scale gives preference, through the lower risk weights, to


securitizations based on several assets, but penalizes
concentration effects (see Table 5.2, column 5).

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.3 The Ratings-Based Approach

Importantly the RBA does not make any distinction in risk weighting
between an arms length investor and an originator of the security
when the originator continues to hold the tranche in securitized
form as an investment.

This latter way of holding securitizations is common in the US


banking industry where the ability to sell securitized tranches at
short notice allows for the flexible management of a banks credit
portfolio as well as its liquidity.

Where an external or inferred rating cannot be used, either the


Supervisory Formula or the Internal Assessment Approach must be
applied.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.4 The Supervisory Formula

The Supervisory Formula (and the Internal Assessment


Approach) may be applied to unrated tranches just as in
the IRB approaches to loan assets.

The SF seeks to establish the equivalent IRB capital


charge of a tranche had the exposure not been
securitized.

This capital charge at tranche level is known as the Kirb.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.4 The Supervisory Formula

The sum of all the Kirbs of every tranche of a securitization should


add up to the same capital charge as the exposures would have if
they remained on the balance sheet.

The Kirb however may be calculated on an aggregate portfolio


basis for the assets subject to the securitization.

In this respect it differs from the IRB Approach to underlying loan


assets where the assets must be assessed individually for their
capital charge.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.2 Securitization

5.2.5 Internal Assessment Approach

The Internal Assessment Approach has very limited application and


can only be used with the approval of the appropriate local
supervisor. It is primarily designed to deal with asset-backed
commercial paper programs, which are commonly used in the US
market to securitize such assets as credit card receivables.

To use the IAA a bank must employ the same methodology as a


recognized rating agency to create each internal assessment of the
risk grading of a tranche of a securitization. The bank can then
map its ratings to the rating scale published by the rating agency.

The risk weight of its exposures is generated in the same way as


under the RBA as shown in column 3 of the table below.

5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.1 BI prudential principles in asset securitization

In January 2005 Bank Indonesia released regulation PBI No.


7/4/PBI/2005 Prudential principles in asset securitization for
commercial banks. This regulation defines the principles banks
follow when participating in asset securitizations. It sets out:

the role of banks


the quality of the underlying assets
the impact on a banks legal lending limit; and
how securitization affects minimum capital requirements.

The regulation only applies to commercial banks as defined by the


Banking Acts. A commercial bank is one that offers a full range of
financial services including foreign exchange services. It has
access to the payment system and provides general banking
services.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.1 BI prudential principles in asset securitization

The regulation defines an asset securitization as the


issuance of asset-backed securities by an issuer on the
basis of the transfer of financial assets from the originator.

The originator receives payment for the transferred assets


from the proceeds of the sale of asset-backed securities
to investors.

Only financial assets in the form of credit, (e.g. mortgages


and loans), claims arising from securities, (e.g. cash flow
from the holding of bonds), future receivables, and other
equivalent assets may be used.

5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

Under Bank Indonesia regulations a commercial bank may carry


out the following functions in connection with a securitization
transaction:

originator
credit enhancer
provider of liquidity facility
servicer
custodian bank
investor.

Each of these services is explained below.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

It is unusual, in any country, for banks to act as the issuer of a


securitization.

Securitizations are issued through a separate legal entity to the


bank, sometimes called a special purpose vehicle company
(SPV).

The SPV ensures that the risk is transferred from the bank and it is
bankruptcy remote. Under BI regulations banks effectively must
transfer securitized assets to a domestic issuer SPV.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization -


example

Bank JJ originates a tranche of securitized assets based on its


residential mortgage portfolio.

This securitization is issued through the issuer JJ Securities, a


special purpose vehicle company set up by Bank JJ. If any of the
residential mortgages securitized defaulted, Bank JJ would not be
liable for the debt; hence removing the risk in these loans from the
bank.

Likewise if Bank JJ became bankrupt then the purchasers of the


securities from JJ Securities would not be affected.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

To undertake any of the approved functions in a securitized


transaction a bank must ensure that the activity does not cause its
capital adequacy ratio to fall below the level stipulated.

In addition to this general rule each bank must meet certain criteria
for each specific function.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

Originator
The originator of a securitization is the party providing
the underlying financial assets for the securitization to the
issuer.

A bank can only act as originator if the underlying assets of the


securitization:

have cash flow


are owned by and under the control of the originator
can be freely transferred to the issuer.

Global Association of Risk Professionals, Inc.


5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

Originator

Banks can only transfer the assets to the issuer if:

the issuer is domestic


the issuer is independent of the originator
all cash flows and benefits from the underlying assets are
transferred
the credit risk of the underlying assets is transferred
control of the underlying assets, either directly or indirectly, is
transferred.

If all the above conditions are met the originating bank can remove
the underlying assets from both its balance sheet and any capital
calculations.

5.3 BI regulation on asset securitization

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

Credit enhancer

Credit enhancement occurs when a bank agrees to


retain or assume part or all of a securitization, providing
some degree of added protection to the other parties in
the transaction. The bank extends a facility to the issuer
to enhance the quality of the underlying assets within the
payment framework.

The credit enhancer protects other parties involved in the


transaction, (e.g. investors) by agreeing to cover losses arising
from any deterioration in the pool of securitized assets. Typically it
does this by using such products as a cash pool, letters of credit or
guarantees that can be exercised if the performance deteriorates.
Securitization transactions can be supported by more than one
credit enhancer.

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

Credit enhancer

If the credit enhancer is also the originator of the securitization it


may choose to support the transaction by retaining a junior tranche
of assets. However, if a problem were to occur, then investors
owning the senior tranches (see Section 5.2.1), would receive
payments before the credit enhancer.

It is also possible for an originator to support a securitization by


over-collateralization. This means the originator can choose to
transfer to the issuer more assets than those pooled to form the
securities. These extra assets can be used to replace non-
performing ones in the original securitization.

5.3.2 The role of banks in asset securitization

Credit enhancer

If the bank acting as credit enhancer is also the originator of the


securitization it may provide loss facilities up to a maximum of 10%
of the value of the underlying assets.

A bank that acts as a credit enhancer must include the


enhancement within its minimum capital calculations.

Provider of liquidity facility

A liquidity facility provides funds to an issuer of a


securitization to resolve any problems with the payment of
liabilities to investors. It covers short-term problems with
cash flows such as time differences between payments
from the obligors of the underlying assets and payments
to the investors.

Each liquidity facility provided by a bank has to meet the following


requirements:

the maximum term is 90 days


it can only be drawn down if the underlying assets are of good
quality with a value at least equal to the liquidity facility; or the
issuer has obtained credit enhancement for all underlying assets
that are not of good quality

Provider of liquidity facility

the maximum amount that may be drawn down by the issuer is


based on the quality of the pool of underlying assets
if the bank is also the originator the maximum amount that may be
provided is 10% of the value of the underlying assets
it may only be used to meet payment obligations to investors
any credit enhancement facility must be fully utilized prior to the
liquidity facility being drawn down.

When calculating its minimum capital requirement a bank treats


funds provided under the liquidity facility as risk-weighted assets.

administration system.

Banks may invest in either domestic or overseas issued


securitizations provided they are within the banks legal lending
limit.

Investor

The securitizations purchased by a bank are included in its


minimum capital requirement, subject to the following provisions:

investments in senior tranche securitizations (see Section 5.2.1)


are treated as risk-weighted assets

junior tranche securitizations may be deducted from capital


depending on any credit enhancement.

5.3.3 Legal lending limit and asset quality

Banks acting as an investor, credit enhancer, or provider of liquidity


facility have exposure not just to the issuer but also possibly to
obligors of the underlying assets themselves.

In the example given in Section 5.3.2 the purchaser of the


securitization has an exposure to the residential mortgages
defaulting. Thus whenever a bank takes on an exposure from a
securitization transaction it must consider not only the quality of the
security itself, but the quality of the underlying assets as well.

Banks must also consider the effect on their legal lending limit.

The legal lending limit is dependent on the type of borrower as


follows:

10% if the recipient of the funds has direct or indirect control over
the bank, (e.g. owner, investor or senior manager)

20% for any single borrower

25% for any interrelated group of borrowers, (e.g. subsidiary


companies of a controlling group).

5.3.3 Legal lending limit and asset quality

Whenever a bank enters into a securitization transaction as an


investor, credit enhancer or provider of liquidity facility, it is deemed
to be providing funds to the obligor of the underlying assets.

A bank is required to include these funds in its legal lending limit


calculations. Where the pool of assets consists of a number of
obligors the funds are allocated on a proportional basis.

If the bank is also acting as originator it must limit its combined


exposure to the transaction (investment, credit enhancement and
liquidity facility) to 20% of the underlying asset value, in addition to
complying with its legal lending limit.

If the bank fails to do this it must reinstate the underlying assets on


its balance sheet and include them in its capital requirement
calculations.
