4.2 Methodology and indicators used for designation of the O-SII (Article 131.3) | Please provide information on:
|
4.3 Supervisory judgement | 2 institutions have been identified through supervisory judgement (deposits guaranteed under deposit guarantee system with threshold of 350 scores):
|
4.4 Calibrating the O-SII buffer | With regard to the calibration methodology FMA and OeNB established three buckets with different buffer rates dependent on the score whereas every identified institution has to hold an O-SII buffer of at least 1 %: Subcategory Bucket 3 Bucket 2 Bucket 1 O-SII Buffer 2.0 % CET1 1.5 % CET1 1.0 % CET1 Scores ≥ 1.000 637 - 999 275 - 636 |
The subcategories enable to differentiate the institutions depending on the score. In particular the difference between EGB, RBI UniCredit Bank Austria and all other identified institutions is very large and could be considered in the best way possible by the calibration. Institutions, which are identified via supervisory judgement, are assigned to Bucket 1. | |
4.5 Effectiveness and proportionality of measure | The O-SII buffer aims to increase the risk-bearing capacity of the systemically important institutions in Austria. However in Austria a systemic risk buffer has been implemented since the beginning of 2016 and the higher of the respective systemic risk buffer and O-SII buffer shall be applied. In the currently prevailing case, this is the systemic risk buffer except for Erste Bank der oesterreichischen Sparkassen and RAIFFESENLANDESBANK NIEDERÖSTERREICH-WIEN on an individual basis (no SyRB). |
5. Cross-border and cross-sector impact of the measure | |
5.1 Assessment of cross-border effects and the likely impact on the internal market (Recommendation ESRB/2015/2) | In line with the findings on the economic impact of the systemic risk buffer at the national level, cross-border effects are expected to be marginally positive. |
5.2 Assessment of leakages and regulatory arbitrage within the notifying Member State | N/A |
6. Combinations and interactions with other measures | |
6.1 Combinations between G-SII and O-SII buffers (Article 131.14) | N/A |
6.2 Combinations with SRB buffers (Article 131.14 + Article 133.5) | Are any of the institutions subject to a systemic risk buffer? YES If yes, please provide the following information: a.

6.3 O-SII requirement for a subsidiary (Article 131.8) | In case the O-SII is a subsidiary of an EU parent institution which is subject to a G-SII or O-SII buffer on a consolidated basis, what is the G-SII or O-SII buffer rate on a consolidated basis of the parent institution? UniCredit S.p.a.: G-SII / O-SII buffer 1 % For details pls see the decision of the Banca d'Italia. |
