Article 158
Treatment by exposure type
The expected loss (EL) and expected loss amounts for exposures to corporates, institutions, central governments and central banks, regional governments, local authorities and public sector entities and retail exposures shall be calculated in accordance with the following formulae:
expected loss (EL) = PD * LGD
expected loss amount = EL [multiplied by] exposure value.
For defaulted exposures (PD = 100 %) where institutions use own estimates of LGD, EL shall be ELBE, the institution’s best estimate of expected loss for the defaulted exposure in accordance with Article 181(1), point (h).
The EL values for specialised lending exposures where institutions use the methods set out in Article 153(5) for assigning risk weights shall be assigned in accordance with Table 2.
