Article 84
Minority interests included in consolidated Common Equity Tier 1 capital
1.
Institutions shall determine the amount of minority interests of a subsidiary that is included in consolidated Common Equity Tier 1 capital by subtracting from the minority interests of that undertaking the result of multiplying the amount referred to in point (a) by the percentage referred to in point (b) as follows:
(a)
the Common Equity Tier 1 capital of the subsidiary minus the lower of the following:
(i)
the amount of Common Equity Tier 1 capital of that subsidiary required to meet the following:
(1)
where the subsidiary is one of those listed in Article 81(1), point (a), of this Regulation but not an investment firm or an intermediate investment holding company, the sum of the requirement laid down in Article 92(1), point (a), of this Regulation, the requirements referred to in Articles 458 and 459 of this Regulation, the specific own funds requirements referred to in Article 104 of Directive 2013/36/EU and the combined buffer requirement defined in Article 128, point (6), of that Directive, or any local supervisory regulations in third countries insofar as those requirements are to be met by Common Equity Tier 1 capital;
(2)
where the subsidiary is an investment firm or an intermediate investment holding company, the sum of the requirement laid down in Article 11 of Regulation (EU) 2019/2033, the specific own funds requirements referred to in Article 39(2), point (a), of Directive (EU) 2019/2034, or any local supervisory regulations in third countries, insofar as those requirements are to be met by Common Equity Tier 1 capital;
(ii)
the amount of consolidated Common Equity Tier 1 capital that relates to that subsidiary that is required on a consolidated basis to meet the sum of the requirement laid down in Article 92(1), point (a), of this Regulation, the requirements referred to in Articles 458 and 459 of this Regulation, the specific own funds requirements referred to in Article 104 of Directive 2013/36/EU and the combined buffer requirement defined in Article 128, point (6), of that Directive, or any local supervisory regulations in third countries, insofar as those requirements are to be met by Common Equity Tier 1 capital;
(b)
the minority interests of the subsidiary expressed as a percentage of all Common Equity Tier 1 items of that undertaking.
By way of derogation from the first subparagraph, point (a), the competent authority may allow an institution to subtract either of the amounts referred to in point (a)(i) or (ii), once that institution has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the competent authority that the additional amount of minority interest is available to absorb losses at consolidated level.
2.
The calculation referred to in paragraph 1 shall be undertaken on a sub-consolidated basis for each subsidiary referred to in Article 81(1).
An institution may choose not to undertake this calculation for a subsidiary referred to in Article 81(1). Where an institution takes such a decision, the minority interest of that subsidiary may not be included in consolidated Common Equity Tier 1 capital.
3.
Where a competent authority derogates from the application of prudential requirements on an individual basis, as laid down in Article 7 of this Regulation or, as applicable, as laid down in Article 6 of Regulation (EU) 2019/2033, minority interests within the subsidiaries to which the waiver is applied shall not be recognised in own funds at the sub‐consolidated or at the consolidated level, as applicable.
4.
EBA shall develop draft regulatory technical standards to specify the sub-consolidation calculation required in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Article, Articles 85 and 87.
EBA shall submit those draft regulatory technical standards to the Commission by 28 July 2013.
Power is delegated to the Commission to adopt the regulatory technical standards referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with Articles 10 to 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010.
5.
Competent authorities may grant a waiver from the application of this Article to a parent financial holding company that satisfies all the following conditions:
(a)
its principal activity is to acquire holdings;
(b)
it is subject to prudential supervision on a consolidated basis;
(c)
it consolidates a subsidiary institution in which it has only a minority holding by virtue of the control relationship within the meaning of Article 4(1), point (37);
(d)
more than 90 % of the consolidated required Common Equity Tier 1 capital arises from the subsidiary institution referred to in point c) calculated on a sub-consolidated basis.
Where, after 28 June 2013, a parent financial holding company that meets the conditions laid down in the first subparagraph becomes a parent mixed financial holding company, competent authorities may grant the waiver referred to in the first subparagraph to that parent mixed financial holding company provided that it meets the conditions laid down in that subparagraph.
6.
Where credit institutions permanently affiliated in a network to a central body and institutions established within an institutional protection scheme subject to the conditions laid down in Article 113(7) have set up a cross-guarantee scheme that provides that there is no current or foreseen material, practical or legal impediment to the transfer of the amount of own funds above the regulatory requirements from the counterparty to the credit institution, these institutions are exempted from the provisions of this Article regarding deductions and may recognise any minority interest arising within the cross-guarantee scheme in full.
