Article 325aj

Correlations across buckets for credit spread risk for non-securitisations

The correlation parameter γbc that applies to the aggregation of sensitivities between different buckets shall be set as follows:

γbc = γbc (rating) · γbc (sector)
where:
γbc (rating) shall be equal to 1 where the two buckets have the same credit quality category (either credit quality step 1 to 3 or credit quality step 4 to 6), otherwise it shall be equal to 50 %; for the purposes of that calculation, bucket 1 shall be considered as belonging to the same credit quality category as buckets that have credit quality step 1 to 3; and
γbc (sector) shall be equal to 1 where the two buckets belong to the same sector, and otherwise shall be equal to the corresponding percentage set out in Table 5:
