AI Summary of Article 159 Treatment of expected loss amounts, IRB shortfall and IRB excess
This regulation outlines the methodology for institutions to calculate the 'IRB excess' and 'IRB shortfall' concerning expected loss amounts from specified exposures under Article 158. Entities must subtract certain credit risk adjustments and additional value adjustments related to these exposures from the total calculated amounts. A positive result yields an 'IRB excess', while a negative result indicates an 'IRB shortfall'.
It is crucial to note that discounts on purchased balance-sheet exposures must be treated as specific credit risk adjustments. Furthermore, adjustments for defaulted and securitised exposures shall not contribute to the calculation of either excess or shortfall, ensuring a focused approach to credit risk management.
