The following assets shall be subject to a 100% required stable funding factor:

  1. (a) unless otherwise specified in this Chapter 4 of Title IV (The Net Stable Funding Ratio), any assets encumbered for a residual maturity of one year or more;
  2. (b) any assets other than those referred to in Articles 428r to 428ag, including loans to financial customers having a residual contractual maturity of one year or more, non- performing exposures, items deducted from own funds, fixed assets, non-exchange-traded equities, retained interest, insurance assets, defaulted securities.

2.

Institutions shall apply a 100% required stable funding factor to the difference, if positive, between the sum of fair values across all netting sets with positive fair value and the sum of fair values across all netting sets with negative fair value calculated in accordance with Article 428d.

The following rules shall apply to the calculation referred to in the first subparagraph:

  1. (a) variation margin received by institutions from their counterparties shall be deducted from the fair value of a netting set with positive fair value, only up to the extent that it results in the netting set having zero fair value, where the collateral received as variation margin qualifies as a level 1 asset pursuant to Chapter 2 of the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (CRR) Part of the PRA Rulebook, excluding extremely high quality covered bonds specified in that Chapter, and where institutions are legally entitled and operationally able to reuse that collateral;
  2. (b) all variation margin posted by institutions with their counterparties shall be deducted from the fair value of a netting set with negative fair value, only up to the extent that it results in the netting set having zero fair value.
