Article 28
Assessment of commodity risk factors
1. When assessing an institution’s compliance with the requirements set out in Article 325bh(1), point (f), of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 in relation to the modelling of commodity risk, competent authorities shall:
(a) |
require the institution:
|
(b) |
verify whether the institution’s internal policies identify metrics that are appropriate to assess the materiality of a commodity market as referred to in Article 325bh(1), point (f), of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 and whether, for commodity markets identified as material, each different commodity is specifically modelled in the institution’s internal risk-measurement model; |
(c) |
verify whether the basis risk between similar but not identical commodities towards which the institution has material exposure is captured, including the basis risk stemming from a different place of delivery and from maturity mismatches; |
(d) |
assess whether the risk in changes in commodity curves is duly captured as required by Article 29 of this Regulation; |
(e) |
assess whether vega risk related to commodity risk is duly captured as required by Article 30 of this Regulation. |
For the purposes of point (c), competent authorities shall verify whether the institution models two different commodities directly or captures the basis by means of a basis risk factor.
2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, points (a)(i) and (ii), competent authorities may require the institution to provide the information referred to in those points for the most relevant commodities only, and may perform the assessment set out in that paragraph 1 on those data.
