BCBS standard for applying preferential regulatory capital treatment of STC short-term securitizations
Basel Committee on Banking Supervision standard sets out additional guidance and requirements for applying preferential regulatory capital treatment for banks acting as investors in, or as sponsors of, simple, transparent and comparable (STC) short-term securitizations, typically in asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) structures. Additional guidance and requirements include that: i) investors have access to key monthly information on performance and key characteristics of the ABCP structure; ii) redemption risk of the underlying assets is addressed from the sponsor's perspective; and iii) transactions funded by the conduit have an enforceable legal structure and that relevant information is disclosed by the sponsor to investors.
