AI Summary of Article 386 Eligible hedges
This document outlines the criteria for recognising positions in hedging instruments as eligible hedges for calculating the own funds requirements for counterparty credit risk (CVA risk) under Articles 383 and 384. To qualify, these positions must be specifically aimed at mitigating CVA risk, managed accordingly, and consist of permitted instruments, including credit default swaps, while also forming a single position.
Notably, eligible hedges, once recognised, are exempt from the own funds requirements for market risk, thereby ensuring more effective risk management within the institution’s trading framework.

(a) they are used for the purpose of mitigating CVA risk and are managed as such;
(b) they can be entered into with third parties or with the institution's trading book as an internal hedge, in which case they are to comply with Article 106(7);
