| 23.2.1 General information about CVA risk: | |||
| Table CVAA: General qualitative disclosure requirements related to CVA | |||
| Purpose: To provide a description of the risk management objectives and policies for CVA risk. | |||
| Scope of application: The table is mandatory for all banks that are subject to CVA capital requirements, including banks which are qualified and have elected to set its capital requirement for CVA at 100% of its counterparty credit risk charge. | |||
| Content: Quantitative information. | |||
| Frequency: Annual. | |||
| Format: Flexible. | |||
Banks must describe their risk management objectives and policies for CVA risk as follows: | |||
| (a) | An explanation and/or a description of the bank’s processes implemented to identify, measure, monitor and control the bank’s CVA risks, including policies for hedging CVA risk and the processes for monitoring the continuing effectiveness of hedges. | ||
| (b) | Whether the bank is eligible and has chosen to set its capital requirement for CVA at 100% of the bank's capital requirement for counterparty credit risk as applicable under SMAR14. | ||
23.2.1 CVA risk under the basic approach (BA-CVA): | |||
| Template CVA1: The reduced basic approach for CVA (BA-CVA) | |||
| Purpose: To provide the components used for the computation of RWA under the reduced BA-CVA for CVA risk. | |||
| Scope of application: The template is mandatory for banks having part or all of their RWA for CVA risk measured according to the reduced BACVA. The template should be completed with only the amounts obtained from the netting sets which are under the reduced BA-CVA. | |||
| Content: RWA. | |||
| Frequency: Semiannual. | |||
| Format: Fixed. | |||
| Accompanying narrative: Banks must describe the types of hedge they use even if they are not taken into account under the reduced BA-CVA. | |||

Definitions and instructions | |
| Row Number | Explanation |
| 1 | Aggregation of systematic components of CVA risk: RWA under perfect correlation assumption (Σc SCVA c)as per SCCR11.14. |
| 2 | Aggregation of idiosyncratic components of CVA risk: RWA under zero correlation assumption (sqrt(∑c SCVAc 2 )) as per SCCR11.14. |
| 3 | Total: Kreduced as per SCCR11.14 multiplied by 12.5. |

| [CVA1:3/b] is equal to [OV1:10/a] if the bank only uses the reduced BA-CVA for all CVA risk exposures. | |
| Template CVA2: The full basic approach for CVA (BA-CVA) |
| Purpose: To provide the components used for the computation of RWA under the full BA-CVA for CVA risk. |
| Scope of application: The template is mandatory for banks having part or all of their RWA for CVA risk measured according to the full version of the BA-CVA. The template should be fulfilled with only the amounts obtained from the netting sets which are under the full BA-CVA. |
| Content: RWA. |
| Frequency: Semiannual. |
| Format: Fixed. Additional rows can be inserted for the breakdown of other risks. |

| 23.2.1 CVA risk under the standardised approach (SA-CVA): | ||
| Table CVAB: Qualitative disclosures for banks using the SA-CVA | ||
| Purpose: To provide the main characteristics of the bank's CVA risk management framework. | ||
| Scope of application: The table is mandatory for all banks using the SA-CVA to calculate their RWA for CVA risk. | ||
| Content: Qualitative information. | ||
| Frequency: Annual. | ||
| Format: Flexible. | ||
Banks must provide the following information on their CVA risk management framework: | ||
| (a) | A description of the bank's CVA risk management framework. | |
| (b) | A description of how senior management is involved in the CVA risk management framework. | |
| (c) | An overview of the governance of the CVA risk management framework (eg documentation, independent control unit, independent review, independence of the data acquisition from the lines of business). | |
| Template CVA3: The standardised approach for CVA (SA-CVA) |
| Purpose: To provide the components used for the computation of RWA under the SA-CVA for CVA risk. |
| Scope of application: The template is mandatory for banks having part or all of their RWA for CVA risk measured according to the SA-CVA. |
| Content: RWA. |

| [CVA3:7/a] is equal to [OV1:10/a] if the bank only uses the SA-CVA for all CVA risk exposures. | |||
| Template CVA4: RWA flow statements of CVA risk exposures under SA-CVA |
| Purpose: Flow statement explaining variations in RWA for CVA risk determined under the SA-CVA. |
| Scope of application: The template is mandatory for banks using the SA-CVA. |
| Content: RWA for CVA risk. Changes in RWA amounts over the reporting period for each of the key drivers should be based on a bank's reasonable estimation of the figure. |
| Frequency: Quarterly. |
| Format: Fixed. |
| Accompanying narrative: Banks are expected to supplement the template with a narrative commentary to explain any significant changes over the reporting period and the key drivers of such changes. Factors behind changes could include movements in risk levels, scope changes (eg movement of netting sets between SA-CVA and BA-CVA), acquisition and disposal of business/product lines or entities or foreign currency translation movements. |
