S.37.01 — Risk concentration – Exposure to Counterparties

General comments:

This section relates to the at least annually submission of information for groups.

This template shall include all significant risk concentrations between entities in scope of group supervision and third parties which can add up from the risk exposures mentioned in the template irrespective of the choice of calculation method or whether sectoral solvency rules have been used for the purposes of the group solvency calculation.

The aim is to list the significant exposures (value of the exposures in each kind of instrument listed in the template) by single counterparty outside the scope of the group. If more than one entity of the group is involved, for each entity a separate line is necessary.

It can be understood as the maximum possible exposure on a contractual basis and not necessarily be reflected on the balance sheet, on both gross basis and net basis taking into account any risk mitigation instruments or techniques. Thresholds are fixed by the group supervisor after consulting the group itself and the college.

Data should be reported by legal entity.
