Subject: Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP)
Considering the provisions of Articles 115-U and 196(1) of the General Regime of Credit Institutions and Financial Companies (RGICSF), approved by Decree-Law No. 298/92 of December 31, in its current wording, credit institutions and investment companies must comply with a set of requirements regarding liquidity risk, in particular by having robust strategies, policies, procedures, and systems to identify, measure, manage, and monitor liquidity risk, in order to ensure that they maintain adequate liquidity levels.
The Bank of Portugal, under Article 116-A of the RGICSF, is responsible for analyzing the provisions, strategies, processes, and mechanisms applied by credit institutions and investment companies to comply with the RGICSF and Regulation (EU) No. 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of June 26, 2013, and, based on this assessment, to decide whether these provisions, strategies, processes, and mechanisms and the liquidity held by the institutions guarantee sound management and coverage of their risks.
The European Banking Authority (EBA) published on February 10, 2017, the “Guidelines on information collected under ICAAP and ILAAP for the purposes of the SREP” (Guidelines on ICAAP and ILAAP or EBA/GL/2016/10), which aim to ensure convergence of supervisory practices for the assessment of the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) and the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP) within the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP), in accordance with the EBA Guidelines on common procedures and methodologies for the SREP of December 19, 2014 (EBA/GL/2014/13). Specifically, the aforementioned Guidelines on ICAAP and ILAAP specify, in accordance with the principle of proportionality, the information that competent authorities must collect from institutions.
Considering that, pursuant to Article 16(3) of Regulation (EU) No. 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of November 24, 2010, it is the responsibility of the Bank of Portugal, as the competent national authority, to make all efforts to comply with the Guidelines and Recommendations issued by the EBA, this Instruction incorporates the Guidelines on ILAAP into the national regulatory framework. The allocation of responsibilities between the Bank of Portugal, as the competent national authority, and the European Central Bank (ECB), under Council Regulation (EU) No. 1024/2013 of October 15, 2013, confers specific responsibilities on the ECB regarding the prudential supervision of credit institutions classified as significant under the aforementioned Regulation, which are therefore excluded from the scope of application of this Instruction.
In these terms, the Bank of Portugal, using the competence conferred by Article 17 of its Organic Law, approved by Law No. 5/98 of January 31, in its current wording, and by the combined provisions of point (f) of paragraph 1 of Article 116 and paragraph 1 of Article 120, both of the RGICSF, approves the following Instruction:
Article 1.
Object
1 – This Instruction aims to define the procedures regarding the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP) and establish the respective reporting models to the Bank of Portugal, in order to ensure that the liquidity risk to which institutions are exposed is adequately assessed and that they maintain adequate liquidity levels.
Article 2.
Scope of Application
1 – This Instruction applies to all credit institutions and investment companies with headquarters in Portuguese territory and subject to the supervision of the Bank of Portugal, hereinafter referred to as institutions, which must provide the information foreseen in this Instruction on an individual basis. 2 – Information must be provided on a consolidated or sub-consolidated basis, as applicable, when dealing with financial companies, mixed financial holding companies, and credit institutions that are parent companies or subsidiaries subject to the supervision of the Bank of Portugal. 3 – This Instruction applies, on a consolidated basis, to the Integrated System of Mutual Agricultural Credit (SICAM), constituted by the Central Mutual Agricultural Credit Bank, its associated mutual agricultural credit banks, and the branches of the aforementioned institutions. 4 – The provisions of this Instruction do not cover credit institutions classified as significant under paragraph 4 of Article 6 of Council Regulation (EU) No. 1024/2013 of October 15, 2013, which confers specific responsibilities on the ECB regarding the prudential supervision of these institutions.
Article 3.
ILAAP Process
1 – Institutions must ensure that the liquidity and funding risks to which they are exposed are adequately identified, measured, managed, and monitored, and that the liquidity they possess is adequate relative to their risk profile. 2 – For the purposes of the preceding paragraph, institutions must have a process developed internally that allows them to identify, measure, manage, and monitor liquidity in compliance with the minimum requirements and guidelines defined in this Instruction. 3 – The ILAAP must integrate the institution's management process and culture, be reviewed regularly, and consider the regulatory context and the economic environment in which the institution operates, in order to guarantee a credible and understandable assessment and result. 4 – Being an internal process of the institution, the design and implementation of the ILAAP must take into account the type, size, complexity, and business model of the institution, as well as the operational environment and the nature and risks of the activities developed, making use of the data and definitions normally used by the institution for internal purposes. 5 – The ILAAP must be prospective in nature, and institutions must have an internal strategy to maintain adequate liquidity levels, including in recession or crisis scenarios, taking into account strategic plans and how they relate to macroeconomic factors. 6 – Institutions must ensure the existence of an organizational and technological structure and governance and internal control practices adequate for the assessment, management, and planning of liquidity and funding, as well as ensure that the ILAAP and its management processes are formally documented, with a historical record of information maintained. 7 – Institutions must have the capacity to demonstrate to the Bank of Portugal that the ILAAP is solid, effective, and comprehensive, as well as to clarify the methodologies and calculations used and the risks these seek to address. 8 – The ILAAP is the sole responsibility of the governing body of the institutions.
Article 4.
ILAAP Reporting
1 – In accordance with the principle of proportionality, credit institutions must report to the Bank of Portugal information related to the ILAAP, complying obligatorily with one of the following models, without prejudice to presenting additional information they consider relevant:
