PART I: GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Structure and conventions
1. The reporting framework on large exposures (‘LE’) shall consist of four templates which include the following information:
large exposures limits;
identification of the counterparty (template LE1);
exposures in the non-trading and trading book (template LE2);
detail of the exposures to individual clients within groups of connected clients (template LE3);
2. The instructions include legal references as well as detailed information regarding the data that shall be reported in each template.
3. The instructions and the validation rules follow the labelling convention set in the following paragraphs, when referring to the columns, rows and cells of the templates.
4. The following convention is generally used in the instructions and validation rules: {Template;Row;Column}. An asterisk sign shall be used to express that the validation is done for all the rows reported.
5. In the case of validations within a template, in which only data points of that template are used, notations do not refer to a template: {Row;Column}.
6. ABS(Value): the absolute value without sign. Any amount that increases the exposures shall be reported as a positive figure. On the contrary, any amount that reduces the exposures shall be reported as a negative figure. Where there is a negative sign (-) preceding the label of an item, no positive figure shall be reported for that item.

7. For the purposes of this Annex, Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 is referred to as ‘CRR’.
PART II: TEMPLATE RELATED INSTRUCTIONS
1. Scope and level of the LE reporting
1. In order to report information on large exposures to clients or groups of connected clients in accordance with Article 394(1) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (‘CRR’) on a solo basis, institutions shall use the templates LE1, LE2 and LE3.
2. In order to report information on large exposures to clients or groups of connected clients in accordance with Article 394(1) CRR on a consolidated basis, the parent institutions in a Member State shall use templates LE1, LE2 and LE3.
3. Every large exposure defined in accordance with Article 392 CRR shall be reported, including the large exposures that shall not be considered for the compliance with the large exposure limit laid down in Article 395 CRR.
4. In order to report information on the 20 largest exposures to clients or groups of connected clients in accordance with the second subparagraph of Article 394(1) CRR on a consolidated basis, the parent institutions in a Member State which are subject to Part Three, Title II, Chapter 3, CRR shall use templates LE1, LE2 and LE3. The exposure value resulting from subtracting the amount in column 320 (‘Amounts exempted’) of template LE2 from the amount in column 210 (‘Total’) of that same template is the amount that shall be used for determining these 20 largest exposures.
5. In order to report information on the ten largest exposures to institutions, on a consolidated basis, as well as on the ten largest exposures to shadow banking entities which carry out banking activities outside the regulated framework on a consolidated basis, in accordance with Article 394(2), points (a) to (d), CRR, the parent institutions in a Member State shall use templates LE1, LE2 and LE3. The exposure value calculated in column 210 (‘Total’) of template LE2 is the amount that shall be used for determining these 20 largest exposures.
6. In order to report information on exposures of a value greater than or equal to EUR 300 million but less than 10 % of the institution’s Tier 1 capital on a consolidated basis according to the last sentence of Article 394(1) of CRR, the parent institutions in a Member State shall use templates LE1, LE2 und LE3. The exposure value calculated in column 210 (‘Total’) of template LE2 is the amount that shall be used for determining these exposures.
7. The data on the large exposures and the relevant largest exposures as well as the data on exposures of a value greater than or equal to EUR 300 million but less than 10 % of the institution’s Tier 1 capital to groups of connected clients and individual clients not belonging to a group of connected clients shall be reported in the template LE2 (in which a group of connected clients shall be reported as one single exposure).
8. Institutions shall report in the LE3 template data regarding the exposures to individual clients belonging to the groups of connected clients, which are reported in the LE2 template. The reporting of an exposure to an individual client in the LE2 template shall not be duplicated in the LE3 template.
2. Structure of the LE template
9. The columns of the template LE1 shall present the information related to the identification of individual clients or groups of connected clients to which an institution has an exposure.
10. The columns of the templates LE2 and LE3 shall present the following blocks of information:
the exposure value before application of exemptions and before taking into account the effect of the credit risk mitigation, including the direct, indirect exposure and additional exposures arising from transactions where there is an exposure to underlying assets;
the effect of the exemptions and of the credit risk mitigation techniques;
the exposure value after application of exemptions and after taking into account the effect of the credit risk mitigation calculated for the purpose of Article 395(1) of CRR.
3. Definitions and general instructions for the purposes of the LE reporting
11. ‘Group of connected clients’ is defined in Article 4(1), point (39), CRR.
12. ‘Institutions’ is defined in Article 4(1), point (3) CRR.
13. Exposures to ‘civil-law associations’ shall be reported. In addition, institutions shall add the credit amounts of the civil-law association to the indebtedness of each partner. Exposures towards civil law associations featuring quotas shall be divided or allocated to the partners according to their respective quotas. Certain constructions (e.g. joint accounts, communities of heirs, straw-man loans) working in fact civil law associations have to be reported just like them.
14. Assets and off balance sheet items shall be used without risk weights or degrees of risk in accordance with Article 389 CRR. Specifically, credit conversion factors shall not be applied to off balance sheet items.
15. ‘Exposures’ are defined in Article 389 CRR.
‘exposures’ are any asset or off-balance sheet items in the non-trading and trading book including items set out in Article 400 CRR, but excluding items which fall under Article 390(6), points (a) to (d), CRR.
‘indirect exposures’ are those exposures allocated to the guarantor or to the issuer of the collateral rather than to the immediate borrower in accordance with Article 403 CRR. The definitions here may not differ in any possible respect from the definitions provided in the basic act.
16. The exposures to groups of connected clients shall be calculated in accordance with Article 390(1) CRR.
17. The ‘netting agreements’ shall be allowed to be taken into account to the effects of large exposures exposure value as laid down in Article 390(3), (4) and (5) CRR. The exposure value of derivative contracts listed in Annex II of CRR and of credit derivative contracts directly entered into with a client shall be determined in accordance with Part Three, Title II, Chapter 6, CRR with the effects of contracts of novation and other netting agreements taken into account for the purposes of those methods in accordance with Part Three, Title II, Chapter 6, Section 3 to Section 5, CRR. The exposure value of repurchase transaction, securities or commodities lending or borrowing transactions, long settlement transactions and margin lending transactions may be determined either in accordance with Part Three, Title II, Chapter 4 or Chapter 6, CRR. In accordance with Article 296 CRR, the exposure value of a single legal obligation arising from the contractual cross-product netting agreement with a counterparty of the reporting institution shall be reported as ‘other commitments’ in the LE templates.
18. The ‘value of an exposure’ shall be calculated in accordance with Article 390 CRR.
19. The effect of the full or partial application of exemptions and eligible credit risk mitigation (CRM) techniques for the purposes of calculating of exposures for the purpose of Article 395(1) CRR is specified in Articles 399 to 403 CRR.
20. Institutions shall report exposures resulting from reverse repurchase agreements in accordance with Article 402(3) CRR. Provided that the criteria in Article 402(3) of CRR are met, the institution shall report the large exposures to each third party for the amount of the claim that the counterparty to the transaction has on this third party and not for the amount of the exposure to the counterparty.

These columns shall contain the original exposure, i.e. the exposure value without taking into account value adjustments and provisions, which shall be deducted in column 210. The definition and calculation of the exposure value is set out in Articles 389 and 390 CRR. The valuation of assets and off-balance-sheet items shall be effected in accordance with the accounting framework to which the institution is subject, according to Article 24 CRR. Exposures deducted from Common Equity Tier 1 items or Additional Tier 1 items, which are not exposures referred to in Article 390(6), point (e), CRR, shall be included in these columns. These exposures shall be deducted in column 200. Exposures referred to in Article 390(6), points (a) to (d), CRR shall not be included in these columns.

|
040 |
Total original exposure The institution shall report the sum of direct exposures and indirect exposures as well as the additional exposures that arise from the exposure to transactions where there is an exposure to underlying assets. |

Loan commitments Annex I, points 1(c) and (h), 2(b)(ii), 3(b)(i) and 4(a), CRR Loan commitments are firm commitments to provide credit under pre-specified terms and conditions, except those that are derivatives because they can be settled net in cash or by delivering or issuing another financial instrument. |
|
100 |
Financial guarantees Annex I, points 1(a), (b) and (f), CRR Financial guarantees are contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Credit derivatives that are not included in the column ‘derivatives’ shall be reported in this column. |
|

|
120-170 |
Indirect exposures Article 403 of CRR In accordance with Article 403 CRR, a credit institution shall use the substitution approach where an exposure to a client is guaranteed by a third party, or secured by collateral issued by a third party. The institution shall report in this block of columns the amounts of the direct exposures that are re-assigned to the guarantor or the issuer of collateral provided that the latter would be assigned an equal or lower risk weight than the risk weight which would be applied to the client under Part Three, Title II, Chapter 2, CRR. In the case of exposures secured by collateral issued by a third party, Article 403(3) CRR offers an alternative treatment. The protected reference original exposure (direct exposure) shall be deducted from the exposure to the original borrower in the columns of ‘Eligible credit risk mitigation techniques’. The indirect exposure shall increase the exposure to the guarantor or issuer of collateral via substitution effect. This shall apply also to guarantees given within a group of connected clients. The institution shall report the original amount of the indirect exposures in the column that corresponds to the type of direct exposure guaranteed or secured by collateral such as, when the direct exposure guaranteed is a debt instrument, the amount of ‘Indirect exposure’ assigned to the guarantor shall be reported under the column ‘Debt instruments’. Exposures arising from credit-linked notes shall also be reported in this block of columns, according to Article 399 CRR. |
