In this Reporting Standard the following definitions are applicable:\n\nADI means an authorised deposit-taking institution within the meaning of the Banking Act.\n\nADI reporting category has the meaning given in Reporting Standard ARS 701.0 ABS/RBA Definitions for the EFS Collection.\n\nAPRA means the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority established under the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority Act 1998.\n\nAPS 001 means Prudential Standard APS 001 Definitions.\n\nAuthorised NOHC has the meaning given in the Banking Act.\n\nBanking Act means the Banking Act 1959.\n\nBusiness days means ordinary business days, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.\n\nCentral counterparty (CCP) means a clearing house that interposes itself between counterparties to contracts traded in one or more financial markets, becoming the buyer to every seller and the seller to every buyer. A CCP becomes counterparty to trades with market participants through novation, an open offer system, or another legally binding arrangement. For the purposes of the capital framework, a CCP is a financial institution.\n\nCredit conversion factor (CCF) means the percentage value used to convert an off-balance sheet exposure into an on-balance sheet equivalent (i.e. the credit equivalent amount). CCFs are generally pre-defined in the form and correspond to the CCFs detailed in Attachment E of APS 180 for market-related off-balance sheet exposures. Where CCFs have not been pre-defined in the form, the ADI does not need to report a CCF as more than one CCF may have been used in relation to that exposure type (see the section below for column 5 Credit equivalent amount).\n\nCredit equivalent amount (CEA) means the on-balance sheet equivalent of an off-balance sheet exposure. These include all market-related transactions held in the banking and trading books that give rise to off-balance sheet credit risk and are eligible for the current exposure method. Refer to Attachment E of APS 180 for details of how to calculate CEAs for various types of transactions under the current exposure method.\n\nCredit rating grade has the meaning given in APS 001.\n\nCurrent exposure means, for each type of market-related off-balance sheet exposure, the sum of the positive mark-to-market value (or replacement cost) of each individual contract within each classification.\n\nDerivative has the meaning given in Prudential Standard CPS 226 Margining and risk mitigation for non-centrally cleared derivatives (CPS 226).\n\nDue date means the last day of the 35 calendar days provided for in paragraph 9 or, if applicable, the relevant due date under paragraph 10 or the date on a notice of extension given under paragraph 11.\n\nEligible bilateral netting agreement has the meaning given in paragraph 9 of Attachment H of Prudential Standard APS 112 Capital Adequacy: Standardised Approach to Credit Risk (APS 112).\n\nExchange traded derivative means a derivative that is transacted directly through an organised, licensed and regulated exchange.\n\nFair value means the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm’s-length transaction. The fair value should be able to be determined through observation of similar transactions, quoted market prices, independent valuations or if there is no readily observable market, through the ability to liquidate the investment or through assessing the net present value of future cash flows.\n\nImmediate parent NOHC means an authorised NOHC, or a subsidiary of an authorised NOHC, that is an immediate parent NOHC.\n\nIRB ADI means an ADI with approval from APRA to use an internal ratings-based (IRB) approach to credit risk.\n\nLevel 1 has the meaning given in APS 001.\n\nLevel 2 has the meaning given in APS 001.\n\nLocally incorporated means incorporated in Australia or in a State or Territory of Australia, by or under a Commonwealth, State or Territory law.\n\nLong settlement transaction means a transaction where a counterparty undertakes to receive or deliver a security, a commodity, or a foreign exchange amount against cash, other financial instruments, or commodities at a contractually specified settlement or delivery date that is more than the lesser of (i) the market standard for the particular instrument, and (ii) five business days after the date on which the parties enter into the transaction.\n\nNetting means the process under a netting agreement of combining all relevant outstanding transactions between two counterparties and reducing them to a single net sum for a party to either pay or receive (refer to Attachment H of APS 112).\n\nNotional principal amount means the face value or gross amount of a given off-balance sheet transaction and not the fair value. Absolute values should be reported.\n\nNumber of counterparties means the total number (count) of counterparties, each as a separate legal entity, with a non-zero notional principal amount in each credit rating grade.\n\nOff-balance sheet exposures means exposures that need to be converted to a CEA before they can be risk-weighted. Prior to the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2005, some items, e.g. derivatives for accounting purposes, were treated as off-balance sheet. After the adoption of IFRS some of these items for accounting purposes were brought on-balance sheet. For the purposes of this Reporting Standard, continue to report items that were off-balance sheet before the adoption of IFRS as off-balance sheet.\n\nOver-the-counter (OTC) derivative transaction means a customised, privately negotiated, risk-shifting agreement, the value of which is derived from the value of an underlying asset.\n\nPotential future exposure, for the purposes of ARF 180.1, means the amount calculated to reflect the potential for the credit exposure of a market-related contract to exceed the current credit exposure over time. This is calculated under either the adjusted current exposure method (detailed in Attachment E of APS 180) or the standardised approach to counterparty credit risk (detailed in Attachment D of APS 180). Generally, the potential future exposure amount is a derived field in ARF 180.1. In some cases, however, the amount must be entered by the ADI. Under the current exposure method, the potential future exposure amount for some off-balance sheet exposure types may consist of several discrete exposures, each potentially attracting different CCFs. The ADI must, by reference to Attachment E of APS 180, determine the appropriate CCF(s) to be applied to the exposure(s) to calculate the potential future exposure amount for that off-balance sheet exposure type and report the total as a single potential future exposure amount in ARF 180.1.\n\nQualifying CCP (QCCP) means an entity that is licensed to operate as a CCP (including a licence granted by way of confirming an exemption), and is permitted by the CCP’s regulator/supervisor to operate as such with respect to the products offered. The entity must be based and prudentially supervised in a jurisdiction where the relevant regulator/overseer has established, and publicly indicated that it applies to the CCP on an ongoing basis, domestic rules and regulations that are consistent with the Committee on Payment and Settlement Systems and International Organization of Securities Commissions (CPSS-IOSCO) Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures. In order for a CCP to be a QCCP, it must also calculate or make available the necessary data to allow for the calculation of an ADI’s default fund capital charge.\n\nReporting period means a period mentioned in paragraph 9 or, if applicable, as varied under paragraph 10 or 11.\n\nSecurities financing transactions (SFTs) means transactions such as repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and borrowing transactions where the value of the transactions depends on the market valuation of securities and the transactions are typically subject to margin agreements.\n\nSignificant financial institution has the meaning given in APS 001.\n\nStandardised ADI means an ADI that does not have approval from APRA to use an IRB approach to credit risk.\n\nSubsidiary has the meaning given in the Corporations Act 2001.\n\nTrade exposure means an exposure a clearing member or a client of a clearing member has to a CCP reflecting a measure of the current mark-to-market value (replacement cost) and the potential future exposure arising from OTC derivative transactions, exchange traded derivative transactions, SFTs and long settlement transactions. Trade exposure is calculated on a bilateral basis, and must include the initial margin posted by an ADI, as well as any variation margin due to the ADI from the CCP that has not yet been received.\n\n19. Unless the contrary intention appears, a reference to an Act, Prudential Standard, Reporting Standard, Australian Accounting Standard or Auditing Standard is a reference to the instruments as in force from time to time.","sortOrder":11}],"analysis":{"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":7,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"The text does not state a change to the population required to report.
