Article 1 - Quantitative assessment for credit institutions

Article 1

Quantitative assessment for credit institutions

1.   Competent authorities and resolution authorities shall assess the impact of the failure of a credit institution on financial markets, on other institutions or on funding conditions on the basis of a total quantitative score calculated in accordance with Annex I. They shall do so on a regular basis and at least every two years.

2.   A credit institution with a total quantitative score equal to or higher than 25 basis points shall be regarded as an institution the failure of which would be likely to have a significant negative effect on financial markets, other institutions or funding conditions.

3.   Competent and resolution authorities may raise or lower the threshold referred to in paragraph 2 within the range of 0 to 105 basis points. Competent and resolution authorities shall keep the amended threshold under regular review.

4.   Where the indicator values of Annex I are not available, the assessment referred to in paragraph 1 shall be made on the basis of proxies correlated to the greatest extent possible with the indicators as specified in Annex III.

5.   Where a credit institution does not exceed the threshold specified in Article 5(a)(4) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 and does not submit Template 20 of that Regulation, competent and resolution authorities may assign a value of zero to the relevant indicators specified in Annex III.

6.   Where the total assets of a credit institution do not exceed 0,02 % of the total assets of all credit institutions authorised and, where relevant data are available, of branches established in the Member State, including Union branches, competent and resolution authorities may, without applying paragraphs 1 to 5, establish that the failure of that credit institution would not be likely to have a significant negative effect on financial markets, other institutions or funding conditions, unless that would not be justified on the basis of Article 2.

7.   Where a credit institution has been identified as a G-SII or an O-SII under Article 131(1) of Directive 2013/36/EU or classified as Category 1 on the basis of the guidelines on common procedures and methodologies for the supervisory review and evaluation process (SREP) issued in accordance with Article 107(3) of that Directive, competent and resolution authorities may, without applying paragraphs 1 to 5 of this Article, establish that the failure of that credit institution would be likely to have a significant negative effect on financial markets, other institutions or funding conditions. The relevant indicator values for those institutions shall, in any event, still be taken into account for determining the aggregate amount referred to in point 2 of Annex I, and for determining the total assets of all credit institutions authorised in the Member State for the purpose of paragraph 6.
