AI Summary of Article 63 Tier 2 instruments
Capital instruments can qualify as Tier 2 instruments if they meet several specific regulatory conditions. These include being fully paid up, not owned by the issuing institution or its subsidiaries, and having provisions ensuring the principal amount ranks below eligible liabilities. Furthermore, instruments must be unsecured, with no arrangements enhancing their seniority, and cannot be subject to early redemption incentives.
Additionally, they must possess a minimum five-year maturity and require clear stipulations regarding write-down or conversion upon resolution actions, as dictated by relevant governance frameworks. This ensures robust capital adequacy while safeguarding against potential losses.
