Response to consultation on changes to Reporting Standard ARS 180.0 Capital Adequacy: Counterparty Credit Risk
On 30 October, APRA released its response to consultation on the proposed amendments to Reporting Standard ARS 180.0 Capital Adequacy: Counterparty Credit Risk (ARS180.0).
The amendments will align reporting requirements for non-significant financial institutions (non-SFIs) with APRA’s previous prudential guidance. The creation of a new reporting standard ARS 226.0 Margining and risk mitigation for non-centrally cleared derivatives (ARS 226.0) will make it easier for entities to find the Reporting Form ARF 226.0 Margining and risk mitigation for non-centrally cleared derivatives (ARF 226.0), which was located in ARS 180.0.
The letter to industry and non-confidential submission are available below:
