AI Summary of Article 235 Calculating risk-weighted exposure amounts under the substitution approach where the guaranteed exposure is treated under the Standardised Approach
This document outlines the calculations required for risk-weighted exposure amounts when institutions utilise unfunded credit protection under the Standardised Approach, as specified in Article 113(3). The formula mandates that the exposure value (E) aligns with Article 111, while accounting for adjustments related to foreign exchange risks and maturity mismatches.
Furthermore, institutions may extend preferential treatment for exposures backed by central government or central bank guarantees, provided compliance with the relevant conditions in Article 114 is maintained. This aligns with best practices for managing credit risk and supporting financial stability.

Article 235 Calculating risk-weighted exposure amounts under the substitution approach where the guaranteed exposure is treated under the Standardised Approach
1. For the purposes of Article 113(3), institutions shall calculate the risk-weighted exposure amounts for exposures with unfunded credit protection to which those institutions apply the Standardised Approach, irrespective of the treatment of comparable direct exposure to the protection provider, in accordance with the following formula:

where:
E = the exposure value calculated in accordance with Article 111; for that purpose, the exposure value of an off-balance-sheet item listed in Annex I shall be 100 % of its value rather than the exposure value indicated in Article 111(2);
GA = the amount of credit protection adjusted for foreign exchange risk (G*) as calculated under Article 233(3) further adjusted for any maturity mismatch as laid down in Section 5 of this Chapter;
r = the risk weight of exposures to the obligor as specified in Chapter 2;
g = the risk weight applicable to a direct exposure to the protection provider as specified in Chapter 2.
