Now that you have a high-level overview of the Standard, let's review the objectives of the EU CRR Regulatory Capital Standard and what it means for Citi.

The EU CRR Regulatory Capital Standard at Citi

Overview

The EU CRR Regulatory Capital Standard (this "Standard") establishes implementation requirements, overarching requirements, governance, and roles and responsibilities to mitigate the risks associated with the measurement and reporting of regulatory capital.

This Standard is inclusive of, but not limited to, the overarching risk management framework for credit risk, market risk and operational risk exposures, associated governance and management oversight processes, and related roles and responsibilities.

Scroll down to continue.

About the EU CRR Regulatory Capital Standard

Citi is subject to the regulatory capital rules contained in Capital Regulatory Regulations (CRR), the Capital Regulatory Directive (CRD), and associated technical standards as published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJ).

These rules have the following specific objectives:

  • Establish an integrated regulatory capital adequacy framework.
  • Encompass risk-based capital ratios, leverage ratios, and regulatory capital buffers.
  • Set minimum requirements for Own Funds and eligible liabilities.

These are reported to supervisors, on a quarterly frequency, via the Common Reporting Framework (COREP).

Coming Next

Now that you have a high-level overview of the regulatory capital rules, next, let's explore how they drive the objectives, starting with regulatory capital requirements.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

Overview

The Standard addresses EU laws, rules and regulations, and other relevant authoritative EU regulatory capital guidance issued by the European Banking Authority (EBA), as applicable to CEP and CGME.

Scroll down to continue.

Methodologies for Risk-Based Capital Ratios

CRR sets forth the composition of regulatory capital (including the application of adjustments and deductions), as well as the comprehensive methodologies for measuring total risk-weighted assets. CRR also establishes that institutions are permitted to apply measures that are stricter than the regulation.

To proceed, select each area to learn about the methodologies for risk-based capital ratios.

 

Credit Risk

Both CEP and CGME must calculate credit risk-weighted assets using the standardised approach, which is based on prescribed supervisory risk weights that may be linked to the external credit ratings of credit rating agencies for specific exposure classes.

Further, there is a specific regime for exposures arising from transactions that are centrally cleared by central counterparties.

Counterparty Credit Risk (CCR)

A standardised approach (SA-CCR) or the advanced approach of the Internal Model Method (IMM) can be used in the measurement of counterparty credit risk exposures for derivatives.

Further, counterparty credit risk exposures for settlement risk and free deliveries are addressed via standardised approaches.

Market Risk

Market risk-weighted assets are calculated either based on the Internal Model Approach (IMA) or standardised approach methodologies.

This includes:

  • General interest rate risk
  • Specific risk
  • Equity risk
  • FX risk
  • Commodity risk
  • Position risk in collective investment undertakings (CIUs)

Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) Risk

CVA risk-weighted assets are calculated using both standardised and advanced methods.

Large Exposures

Where aggregate exposures and positions arising from the credit risk, counterparty credit risk and market risk frameworks, to a group of connected clients, exceed thresholds set as a proportion of Tier 1 capital, an additional own funds requirement for large exposures may also arise on trading book exposures (non-trading book exposures must not exceed large exposure thresholds).

Operational Risk

Operational risk-weighted assets are calculated using the standardised approach.

Credit Risk Mitigation

Credit risk mitigation may be recognized, via the Financial Collateral Comprehensive Method, in exposure measurement for credit risk, counterparty credit risk, CVA risk and large exposures, if funded, or substitution, if unfunded, subject to meeting the appropriate conditions to be deemed eligible.

Note


Citi does not use all regulatory methodologies and calculations outlined in the regulation. We use only those that are the most appropriate based on the products positions are taken in; regulatory capital impacts; Citi's scope of waivers and permissions; legal entity size and operational considerations.

For example, we do not apply the Internal Ratings Based (IRB) Approach as it lacks the relevant waiver and, due to regulatory capital impacts, we typically use standardised and rather than simplified approaches.

Minimum Risk-Based Capital Ratios

CEP's and CGME's stated minimum capital regulatory requirements are as follows:

  • CET1 Capital — 4.5%of RWA
  • Tier 1 Capital — 6.0%of RWA
  • Total Capital ratios — 8.0%of RWA

CET1 Capital is the most loss-absorbing form of capital. Additional Tier 1 Capital is also able to absorb losses without causing the default of the issuer, and Tier 2 Capital absorbs losses before senior exposures in the event of the default of the issuer.

Capital instruments, balance sheet reserves, and subordinated liabilities must meet the conditions specified in the regulations to be recognised in the appropriate tier of capital.

CET1 may be adjusted for prudential filters, which reverse certain accounting adjustments to capital, and each tier of capital is also subject to deductions for certain exposures. At a consolidated level, capital in the form of minority interests may be recognised where it meets the relevant requirements.

Material Model Changes


Our Model Sponsors, as described in the Citi Model Risk Management Policy, must ensure appropriate regulatory notification to the Joint Supervisory Team (JST) for model extensions and changes to our counterparty credit and market risk internal models, including any changes to our modeling assumptions. For CEP and CGME, regulatory notification is performed by the respective Legal Entity Risk Analytics Model Governance (LERAG) team, in line with respective Procedures.

Model changes and extensions to be notified1 include those that may result in either a material increase or decrease to RWA or that fulfil qualitative criteria as set out in the relevant regulation. Citi is required to obtain pre-approval from the JST for any planned model changes that will have a material impact on RWA or extensions to the scope of the Pillar 1 permission. The LERAG team maintains the IMA or IMM Model Change procedures for the respective Legal Entity, which outlines notification criteria and conditions including respective responsibilities.

1 Materiality for model changes is based on a combination of quantitative and qualitative assessments.

Regulatory Capital Buffers

CEP and CGME must maintain regulatory capital buffers above the stated minimum regulatory capital requirements to avoid certain limitations on capital distributions (e.g., dividends) and discretionary bonus payments. These regulatory capital buffers are available to absorb losses in advance of any potential impairment of regulatory capital below the stated minimum regulatory capital ratio requirements.

To proceed, select each buffer to learn about the requirements.

Capital Conservation Buffer

Capital Conservation Buffer

CEP and CGME are subject to a fixed 2.5% Capital Conservation Buffer, which is comprised entirely of CET1 Capital.

Countercyclical Capital Buffer

Countercyclical Capital Buffer

In addition, CEP and CGME are subject to a Countercyclical Capital Buffer.

This buffer is determined by:

  • A combination of the relevant exposures in a particular jurisdiction
  • Divided by the total relevant exposures in that jurisdiction (known as the pass-through rate)
  • And then multiplied by the Countercyclical Capital Buffer rate that has been set for that jurisdiction
Other Systemically Important Institution (O-SII) Buffer

Other Systemically Important Institution (O-SII) Buffer

CEP is also subject to an O-SII Buffer.

The objective of this buffer is to reduce the probability of failure of a systemically important institution. The buffer enhances the resilience of these institutions, which are systemically important due to the scale or nature of their business, by providing an additional layer of loss-absorbing capital. A higher capital requirement for these institutions acknowledges the greater impact of their failure.

Pillar 2 Requirements and Guidance

Pillar 2 Requirements

CEP and CGME are subject to Pillar 2 requirements, including interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB). The Pillar 2 requirement is a bank-specific capital requirement applicable in addition to the minimum capital requirement (known as Pillar 1) where this underestimates or does not cover certain risks. The JST determines the Pillar 2 requirement, taking into consideration the outcomes of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP). The Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), which the Global ICAAP Standard applies to, is an important input factor for the SREP.

Unlike other capital buffers, the Pillar 2 requirement is not available to use during times of stress to absorb the impact of the shock on the economy. Rather, it is a minimum requirement that must be always met in the same manner as the minimum capital ratios.

Pillar 2 Guidance

CEP and CGME are subject to Pillar 2 guidance, which is a bank-specific recommendation that indicates the level of capital to be maintained in addition to binding capital requirements to ensure that potential losses resulting from adverse scenarios can be absorbed.

The Pillar 2 guidance is set as part of the SREP. Unlike the Pillar 2 requirement, it is not legally binding.

Leverage Ratio

Citi is also required to maintain a minimum Leverage ratio of 3.0%.

The Leverage ratio, a non-risk-based measure of capital adequacy, is defined as:

  • Tier 1 Capital as a percentage of leverage ratio exposures less amounts deducted from Tier 1 Capital.

Leverage ratio exposures are calculated as:

  • The sum of assets, off-balance sheet exposures, derivative exposures, counterparty credit risk add-ons, and exposure value of regular-way purchases and sales awaiting settlement, less excluded exposures.

Limitations on Distributions

As noted earlier in the Regulatory Capital Buffers section, we must maintain several regulatory capital buffers above the stated minimum regulatory capital ratio requirements and maintain a leverage ratio buffer above the stated minimum leverage ratio, which is currently set to 0%.

To proceed, select each area to learn the effect if Citi breaches the required buffers.

Limitations on Distributions
Maximum Distributable Amount

Limitations on Distributions

If we were to breach the Capital Conservation, Countercyclical, O-SII, or leverage ratio buffer requirements, we must produce a Capital Conservation Plan and be subject to limitations on capital distributions (e.g., dividends) and discretionary bonus payments, with increasing restrictions based upon the severity of the breach.

We must not make any distributions on CET1 instruments, pay, or create discretionary bonus payments in excess of our Maximum Distributable Amount (MDA).

go to next button

Maximum Distributable Amount

We calculate MDA as interim profits plus year-end profits not included in CET1, less foreseeable dividends, tax, and any of the limitations noted above, multiplied by the following factors:

  • 0 – If in the lowest quartile of the combined buffer requirement or leverage ratio buffer requirement
  • 0.2 – If in the second quartile of the combined buffer requirement or leverage ratio buffer requirement
  • 0.4 – If in the third quartile of the combined buffer requirement or leverage ratio buffer requirement
  • 0.6 – If in the top quartile of combined buffer requirement or leverage ratio buffer requirement

go to next button

Minimum Requirements for Own Funds and Eligible Liabilities (MREL)


MREL is defined as the sum of own funds and eligible liability instruments.

Citi is required to maintain minimum levels of MREL, set by reference to total risk-weighted assets (RWA) and total leverage exposure.

If we were to seek to reduce, redeem, repurchase, repay, or exercise a call in relation to any element of our own funds or eligible liabilities, then we must follow the conditions set forth within the regulation.

Check Your Understanding – Sources of Exposures

You are tasked with preparing the large exposures calculation related to a significant counterparty.

As you scan through the list of open transactions in the books related to the counterparty, you see the following items:

  • Long commodity derivative
  • Short commodity derivative
  • Repurchase transaction
  • Reverse repurchase transaction
  • Loan asset
  • Deposit liability
  • Guarantee received
  • Long position in shares issued by the counterparty

Which of the following transactions should not be included in your calculation of large exposures?

Think about it…

Before we move onto the next topic, think about how the regulatory capital requirements impact your role and the work you perform.

Coming Next

As you discovered in this topic, various regulatory methodologies and calculations must be used under the EU regulatory capital framework. Next, let's learn about the required activities we must perform as part of the end-to-end EU Regulatory Capital measurement and reporting processes.

Regulatory Capital Activities

Overview

Country Controllers oversee the end-to-end EU Regulatory Capital measurement and reporting process(es), which involves activities performed by multiple key stakeholders designated as Enterprise Support Function, First Line of Defense, or Second Line of Defense based on the Enterprise Risk Management Framework. We will explore the responsibilities of these key stakeholders in the next topic.

Irrespective of the designation, Country Controllers are the principal stakeholder responsible and accountable for the accuracy and diligence regarding the measurement and reporting of risk-weighted assets under both standardised and advanced approaches for risk-based capital purposes, as well as the leverage ratio. Citi Businesses, Independent Risk Management (IRM), and other Enterprise Support Functions are engaged in varying aspects of this end-to-end process.

Scroll down to continue.

Common Process Requirements

To proceed, select the arrow on the right to review common process requirements necessary to comply with the Standard.

 

Regulatory Capital Rules and Requirements – Guidance and Interpretation

The International Regulatory Capital Policy and Advisory team, residing within International Controllers, must provide regulatory capital guidance and coordinate the governance process for interpretations, as requested by Citi Businesses and other global functions, to proposed or existing transactions, structures, products, or events. This team is independent of the Citi Solution Center and Country Controllers teams, also residing within International Controllers.

The International Regulatory Capital Policy and Advisory team also partners with the Regulatory Strategy and Policy Team to actively engage in trade association advocacy efforts and exercises (e.g., quantitative impact studies) regarding proposed new EU regulatory capital rules, as well as reviewing, assessing, analyzing, and supporting workstreams to deliver the appropriate application of newly issued EU regulatory capital rules.

Citi Businesses and other global functions must seek International Regulatory Capital Policy and Advisory team counsel if there are questions regarding the currently effective EU regulatory capital requirements and/or related historical Citi interpretations.
 

Data Provision

Data Consumers (e.g., Citi Solution Center, Model Sponsors) consistent with the principles outlined in the Citi Data Governance Policy (CDGP) for the Data Consumer role, must document data requirements to perform EU Regulatory Capital measurement and reporting, at an appropriate level of granularity, including Data Quality requirements. They also must describe and document the purposes for which they will use such data.

Citi Businesses, Risk, and Global Functions (reference data providers), consistent with the CDGP principles for the Data Owner role, must partner with each data consumer to jointly agree to the Enterprise Data requirements as expressed and documented by such Data Consumer in an ECDO approved Tool, implement and maintain data controls, manage data concerns, and maintain data cataloging and data authority.
 

Legal Review

Legal must conduct a sufficient review to conclude whether certain credit risk mitigation documentation is legally effective and enforceable under applicable law in the relevant jurisdictions.

They also must conduct additional reviews as necessary to confirm continuing enforceability, as required by the operational requirements for counterparty credit risk in the EU regulatory capital rules.
 

Basel Calculation, Aggregation, Review, and Analysis

Citi Solution Center is accountable and responsible for the calculation, aggregation, review, and analysis processes of all RWAs, except for modelled RWAs owned by Risk. These processes must consider the specific EU regulatory capital requirements and historical Citi interpretations and the appropriate treatments of product-specific features or requirements. They must also provide timely, accurate, frequent, and granular management reporting of EU Regulatory Capital and its significant drivers for treasury capital management (in line with the Legal Entity Capital Standard), business management, and risk management.

The Enterprise Infrastructure & Technology and other Finance data functions establish and maintain appropriate infrastructure and processes that apply logic to input data required to calculate EU Regulatory Capital measures.

Citi Solution Center must also identify required top-side adjustments based on Citi business requests or gaps identified during the monthly RWA production process, and work with relevant parties, such as Business, Risk and Internal Audit, to develop the top-side methodology (TSM) template for adjustments.

Citi Solution Center must calculate Topside Adjustments (TSAs) per the agreed methodology. They must then review the TSAs against the RWA Flash estimates to confirm completeness and accuracy of the TSAs for the respective month-end cycle and provide sign-off.

 

Reporting and Disclosures

The Citi Solution Center is responsible for reporting local regulatory capital ratios. Citi Solution Center teams prepare the local regulatory information included in various regulatory report filings and execute regulatory reporting process controls (e.g., cross report validations, edit checks). They must provide complete, accurate, and timely capital reporting (for both external regulatory reporting and internal management information purposes) using a standardised production process that is largely automated and includes checks for integrity and consistency.

Country Controllers represents Citi regarding EU Regulatory Capital information or other requests from the JST. Consistent with the Global Regulatory and Management Reporting Policy, They attest to the finalized EU Regulatory Capital information needed for Citi Solution Center to conduct their regulatory reporting process and controls. Country Controllers are the report owners for the various EU regulatory capital reports and responsible for governance and oversight activities within the scope of the Global Regulatory and Management Reporting Policy. This includes, but is not limited to, monitoring and escalation of significant issues involving EU regulatory capital reporting to the relevant Business Risk and Control Committee (BRCC).

 

Finance Quality Assurance Testing

The International Conformance Testing team, within LRR has defined a risk-based approach and methodology to execute testing for the accuracy of Spot RWA and Capital Ratios.

 
 

Independent Verification and Validation

We must perform independent verification and validation checks to ensure we comply with the Standard.

To proceed, select each area to find out what is required and the roles involved.

EU Regulatory Capital Rule Interpretations
 

Regulatory capital interpretations are subject to an established governance process based on the CRR Interpretive Office (CRR IO).
  • Material interpretations (0.5% of the legal entity's RWAs) are addressed at CRR IO.
  • Immaterial interpretations are delegated to the Capital and Leverage Interpretive Working Group (CL IWG).
  • Significant interpretations (>2% of the legal entity's RWAs) made at CRR IO must be ratified at the legal entity's ALCO.
EU Regulatory Capital Measurement and Reporting
 

Citi Solution Center is responsible for controls including reconciliations and variance analysis of capital and leverage ratio calculations and the reporting production process.
Model Risk Management
 

Model Risk Management (MRM) is an independent risk function within Citi Risk Management that is managed by the Citi Head of Model Risk Management, who reports to the Citi Chief Risk Officer.

The Model Validation group within MRM performs validation activities including validation of new models, annual model review, ongoing performance monitoring, revalidation, and internal approval of model changes.

Refer to the Standard Section 3.2.2.3 for related policies and procedures.

Internal Audit
 

Internal Audit is independent of IRM and Front-Line Units. The role of Internal Audit is to provide independent, objective, reliable, valued, and timely assurance to Boards, Audit Committees, senior management, and the JST regarding the effectiveness of governance, risk management, and controls that are designed to mitigate current and evolving risks, and enhance the control culture within Citi.

An Internal Audit function that is independent of business line management must:

  • Regularly assess the effectiveness of the controls supporting Citi's advanced approaches and report its findings to the CEP and CGME Board of Directors as necessary
  • Consider its role in assessing the effectiveness of internal controls supporting Citi's advanced approaches, per the relevant regulatory guidance
  • Per the requirements of the CRR market risk capital rules, as part of its regular internal auditing process, perform an independent review of IMAs
  • Per the requirements of the CRR counterparty credit capital rules, perform an independent review of the risk measurement system regularly
    • This review should include both the activities of the business trading units and the independent risk control unit
    • A review of the overall CCR management process must take place at regular intervals (and no less than once a year)

Check Your Understanding – Legal Certainty

You are tasked with evaluating whether four collateral agreements should be recognized as risk mitigating for RWA purposes. All four agreements have been partially flagged in the system as meeting legal certainty requirements. You reach out to the Legal department, and you are provided with the following additional information in relation to each agreement.

Considering this information, which one of the four collateral agreements may be recognised as risk mitigating?
