Revised Standard LAC Disclosure Template and Updated Code of Practice Chapter LAC-1 Resolution Planning

CCA(A) 1 Template CCA(A): Main features of regulatory capital instruments and non-capital LAC debt instruments Purpose: To provide a description of the main features of a resolution entity or a material subsidiary’s Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”), Additional Tier 1 (“AT1”), Tier 2 (“T2”) capital instruments and non-capital LAC debt instruments, as applicable, that are recognised as part of its loss￾absorbing capacity under the Financial Institutions (Resolution) (Loss-absorbing Capacity Requirements – Banking Sector) Rules (“LAC Rules”). Scope of application: The template is mandatory for all resolution entities and material subsidiaries under the LAC Rules for all instruments included in their loss-absorbing capacity. Content: Qualitative and quantitative information. Frequency: Semi-annual. This template should be updated whenever a capital instrument or a non-capital LAC debt instrument is issued, repaid, included in or excluded from the external or internal loss￾absorbing capacity by a resolution entity or material subsidiary, as applicable, and whenever there is a redemption, conversion / write-down, or any other material change in the nature of the relevant instrument. The resolution entity or material subsidiary should include the web link to the issuances made over the previous period in each disclosure statement. Format: Flexible. Accompanying information: The full terms and conditions of all instruments included in the external or internal loss￾absorbing capacity of a resolution entity or material subsidiary, as applicable, should be made available on its internet website.

A resolution entity or material subsidiary that is a Hong Kong-incorporated AI may complete Table CCA for all CET1, AT1 and T2 capital instruments, as applicable, that are included in both its regulatory capital and external or internal loss-absorbing capacity, as the case requires, in place of this template.

CCA(A) 3 (a) Quantitative / qualitative information (ii) This template may be posted on the internet website of a group company of the resolution entity or material subsidiary, instead of that of the resolution entity or material subsidiary, upon approval by the resolution authority under the LAC Rules. However, for disclosure by a resolution entity or material subsidiary that is a Hong Kong-incorporated AI with respect to CET1, AT1 and T2 capital instruments that are included in both its regulatory capital and external or internal loss-absorbing capacity, the reference to “group company” should be interpreted as a reference to the holding company only (but not also any other group company) of the resolution entity or material subsidiary, consistent with requirements under the Banking (Disclosure) Rules. (iii) A resolution entity or material subsidiary should report the main features of each outstanding regulatory capital instrument or non-capital LAC debt instrument. For any item that is not applicable for a particular instrument, “NA” should be entered. (iv) In order to provide a “main features report” that summarises all of the regulatory capital instruments and non-capital LAC debt instrument of the banking group, a resolution entity or material subsidiary should group the instruments under three sections (horizontally along the template) to indicate whether they are for meeting (i) only regulatory capital (but not LAC) requirements; (ii) both regulatory capital and LAC requirements; or (iii) only LAC (but not regulatory capital) requirements. The resolution entity or material subsidiary should report each instrument in a separate column of this template (by adding column (b), column (c) and so on) under each of the three sections according to the relevant grouping. (v) A resolution entity or material subsidiary should select one of the standard options in the list as the input for a particular cell, where relevant. The following table provides a more detailed explanation of reporting requirements for each of the cells, and, where relevant, the list of standard options from which the resolution entity or material subsidiary should select as the input for a particular cell. Explanatory Note Rows 1 The legal entity which is the issuer of the instrument. Free text 2 Unique identifier (e.g. CUSIP, ISIN or Bloomberg identifier for private placement).

If a resolution entity or material subsidiary has full discretion to cancel coupon / dividend payments under all circumstances, it should select “fully discretionary” (including when there is a dividend stopper that does not have the effect of preventing the resolution entity or material subsidiary from cancelling payments on the instrument). If there are conditions that should be met before payment can be cancelled (e.g. capital below a certain threshold), the resolution entity or material subsidiary should select “partially discretionary”. If the resolution entity or material subsidiary is unable to cancel the payment outside of insolvency, it should select “mandatory”. Enter: [Fully discretionary] [Partially discretionary] [Mandatory] 21 Specifies whether there is a step-up or other incentive to redeem.
