Purpose: Enable users of Pillar 3 data to make an informed judgment about the soundness of a bank's liquidity risk management framework and liquidity position.

Scope of application: The table is mandatory for all banks.

Content: Qualitative and quantitative information.

Frequency: Annual.

Format: Flexible. Banks may choose the relevant information to be provided depending upon their business models and liquidity risk profiles, organisation and functions involved in liquidity risk management.

Below are examples of elements that banks may choose to describe, where relevant:

Qualitative disclosures

(a)

Governance of liquidity risk management, including: risk tolerance; structure and responsibilities for liquidity risk management; internal liquidity reporting; and communication of liquidity risk strategy, policies and practices across business lines and with the board of directors.

(b)

Funding strategy, including policies on diversification in the sources and tenor of funding, and whether the funding strategy is centralised or decentralised.

(c)

Liquidity risk mitigation techniques.

(d)

An explanation of how stress testing is used.

(e)

An outline of the bank's contingency funding plans.

Quantitative disclosures

(f)

Customised measurement tools or metrics that assess the structure of the bank's balance sheet or that project cash flows and future liquidity positions, taking into account off-balance sheet risks which are specific to that bank.

(g)

Concentration limits on collateral pools and sources of funding (both products and counterparties).

(h)

Liquidity exposures and funding needs at the level of individual legal entities, foreign branches and subsidiaries, taking into account legal, regulatory and operational limitations on the transferability of liquidity.

(i)

Balance sheet and off-balance sheet items broken down into maturity buckets and the resultant liquidity gaps.

Purpose: Present the breakdown of a bank's cash outflows and cash inflows, as well as its available high-quality liquid assets (HQLA), as measured and defined according to the LCR standard.

Scope of application: The template is mandatory for all banks.

Content: Data must be presented as simple averages of daily observations over the previous quarter (ie the average calculated over a period of, typically, 90 days) in the local currency.

Frequency: Quarterly.

Format: Fixed.

Accompanying narrative: Banks must publish the number of data points used in calculating the average figures in the template.

In addition, a bank should provide sufficient qualitative discussion to facilitate users' understanding of its LCR calculation. For example, where significant to the LCR, banks could discuss:

• the main drivers of their LCR results and the evolution of the contribution of inputs to the LCR's calculation over time;
• intra-period changes as well as changes over time;
• the composition of HQLA;
• concentration of funding sources;
• currency mismatch in the LCR; and
• other inflows and outflows in the LCR calculation that are not captured in the LCR common template but which the institution considers to be relevant for its liquidity profile.

General explanations

Figures entered in the template must be averages of the observations of individual line items over the financial reporting period (ie the average of components and the average LCR over the most recent three months of daily positions, irrespective of the financial reporting schedule). The averages are calculated after the application of any haircuts, inflow and outflow rates and caps, where applicable. For example:

where T equals the number of observations in period Qi.

Weighted figures of HQLA (row 1, third column) must be calculated after the application of the respective haircuts but before the application of any caps on Level 2B and Level 2 assets. Unweighted inflows and outflows (rows 2-8, 11-15 and 17-20, second column) must be calculated as outstanding balances. Weighted inflows and outflows (rows 2-20, third column) must be calculated after the application of the inflow and outflow rates.

Adjusted figures of HQLA (row 21, third column) must be calculated after the application of both (i) haircuts and (ii) any applicable caps (ie cap on Level 2B and Level 2 assets). Adjusted figures of net cash outflows (row 22, third column) must be calculated after the application of both (i) inflow and outflow rates and (ii) any applicable cap (ie cap on inflows).

The LCR (row 23) must be calculated as the average of observations of the LCR:

Not all reported figures will sum exactly, particularly in the denominator of the LCR. For example, "total net cash outflows" (row 22) may not be exactly equal to "total cash outflows" minus "total cash inflows" (row 16 minus row 20) if the cap on inflows is binding. Similarly, the disclosed LCR may not be equal to an LCR computed on the basis on the average values of the set of line items disclosed in the template.

Definitions and instructions:

Columns

Unweighted values must be calculated as outstanding balances maturing or callable within 30 days (for inflows and outflows).

Weighted values must be calculated after the application of respective haircuts (for HQLA) or inflow and outflow rates (for inflows and outflows).

Adjusted values must be calculated after the application of both (i) haircuts and inflow and outflow rates and (ii) any applicable caps (ie cap on Level 2B and Level 2 assets for HQLA and cap on inflows).

Purpose: Provide details of a bank's NSFR and selected details of its NSFR components.

Scope of application: The template is mandatory for all banks.

Content: Data must be presented as quarter-end observations in the local currency.

Frequency: Semiannual (but including two data sets covering the latest and the previous quarter-ends).

Format: Fixed.

Accompanying narrative: Banks should provide a sufficient qualitative discussion on the NSFR to facilitate an understanding of the results and the accompanying data. For example, where significant, banks could discuss:

(a)the drivers of their NSFR results and the reasons for intra-period changes as well as the changes over time (eg changes in strategies, funding structure, circumstances); and

(b)the composition of the bank's interdependent assets and liabilities (as defined in NSF30.35 to NSF30.37) and to what extent these transactions are interrelated.

General instructions for completion of the NSFR disclosure template

Rows in the template are set and compulsory for all banks. Key points to note about the common template are:

• Dark grey rows introduce a section of the NSFR template.
• Light grey rows represent a broad subcomponent category of the NSFR in the relevant section.
• Unshaded rows represent a subcomponent within the major categories under ASF and RSF items. As an exception, rows 21 and 23 are subcomponents of rows 20 and 22, respectively. Row 17 is the sum of rows 18, 19, 20, 22 and 24.
• No data should be entered for the cross-hatched cells.
• Figures entered in the template should be the quarter-end observations of individual line items.
• Figures entered for each RSF line item should include both unencumbered and encumbered amounts.
• Figures entered in unweighted columns are to be assigned on the basis of residual maturity and in accordance with NSF30.7 and NSF30.17.

Items to be reported in the "no maturity" time bucket do not have a stated maturity. These may include, but are not limited to, items such as capital with perpetual maturity, non-maturity deposits, short positions, open maturity positions, non-HQLA equities and physical traded commodities.
