6.4.1 Repo Style Transaction
| الرقم: BCS 290 | التاريخ (م): 2006/6/12 | التاريخ (هـ): 1427/5/16 | الحالة: No longer applicable |
Where a bank, acting as an agent, arranges a repo-style transaction (i.e. repurchase/reverse repurchase and securities lending/borrowing transactions) between a customer and a third party and provides a guarantee to the customer that the third party will perform on its obligations, then the risk to the bank is the same as if the bank had entered into the transaction as a principal. In such circumstances, a bank will be required to calculate capital requirements as if it were itself the principal.
