Less significant credit institutions, broker-dealers, liquidation bodies, and branches of non-EEA entities in Belgium must apply a two-part threshold to assess the significance of credit arrears for default definition purposes: a fixed amount limit of 100 euros for retail exposures and 500 euros for other exposures, and a ratio limit of 1% of total exposures excluding equities. A default is considered to have occurred when both limits are exceeded for more than 90 consecutive days. Institutions must inform the National Bank of Belgium of the exact date they begin applying this threshold, with implementation required no later than 31 December 2020.
