Circular Annex 7

The regulator issues Circular Annex 7 to require financial institutions and central banking entities to conduct a comprehensive asset and liability maturity analysis, calculate an immediate liquidity ratio using specified balance sheet components such as cash, demand deposits, and sound credits, and report monthly credit allocations segmented by term and interest rate. The framework establishes standardized calculation methodologies for liquidity ratios, defines clear thresholds for short- and long-term sound credits, and sets borrowing requirements from financial institutions. Compliance ensures accurate monitoring of institutional liquidity positions and supports prudent risk management through standardized reporting intervals and rate brackets.
