Instruction No. 2011-04 on Large Exposures
The Central Bank of Djibouti issued Instruction No. 2011-04 to cap individual credit exposures at 25% of a credit institution's own funds and limit significant individual exposures to 800% of own funds. The directive mandates that subject institutions calculate these limits using defined own funds and risk weighting coefficients, while allowing temporary derogations upon central bank approval. Furthermore, it requires quarterly electronic and paper reporting of significant exposures by the 20th of March, June, September, and December, simultaneously repealing previous 1996 instructions on the matter.
