Article 1

Method for identifying the risk drivers of a derivative transaction

1.   For the purpose of identifying transactions with only one material risk driver and transactions with more than one material risk driver, institutions shall, at inception of each transaction, identify all the risk drivers of the transaction by determining the risk factors on which the cash flows of that transaction depend, having regard to at least the risk factors referred to in Articles 325l to 325q of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The risk factors identified by the institutions shall be the risk drivers of the transaction.

2.   Institutions shall not consider as risk drivers of a transaction the interest rate risk factors used to discount the cash flows of the transaction.
