4       Net Stable Funding Ratio Calculation

Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) is one of the two minimum standards developed to promote funding and liquidity management in financial institutions. NSFR assesses the bank’s liquidity risks over a longer time horizon. Both the standards, complement each other, are aimed at providing a holistic picture of a bank’s funding risk profile, and aid in better liquidity risk management practices.

Overview

NSFR is defined as the amount of available stable funding relative to the required stable funding. Available stable funding refers to the portion of capital and liabilities expected to be reliable over the horizon of 1 year. Required stable funding refers to the portion of assets and off-balance sheet exposures over the same horizon. The NSFR ratio is expected to be at least 100%.

This illustration shows the formula to calculate the NSFR. 

Process Flow

The Available Stable Funding (ASF) factor and Required Stable Funding (RSF) factor is applied through business assumptions and reflects through the execution of a Business as Usual (BAU) run in the OFS LRRCBNM application. The ASF and RSF factors are applied as weights at the account level and the Total ASF and Total RSF are obtained by taking a sum of all the weighted amounts. The ratio is then computed by the application as the Total ASF amount divided by the Total RSF amount.  A set of pre-defined business assumptions for ASF and RSF as defined in the NSFR guidelines are prepackaged in the application. For the complete list of pre-seeded ASF and RSF, assumptions , see the  Regulation Addressed through Business Assumptions section.

Identifying Maturity bands

One of the various dimensions used to allocate ASF and RSF factors is the maturity bucket of the instrument. For NSFR computation, maturity bands are used to allocate the factors. The BNM NSFR band is pre-defined as per regulatory guidelines and has the following values:

·        Less than 6 months

·        Greater than or equal to 6 months but less than 1 year

·        Greater than or equal to one year

·        Open maturity

All accounts will be categorized on one of these bands depending on the maturity date.  Note that to categorize any product into open maturity, the LRM - Classification of Products as Open Maturity rule should be edited, and the product must be included in the rule.

Computing Available Amount of Stable Funding

The available stable funding factor is a pre-determined weight ranging from 0% to 100% which is applied through business assumptions for accounts falling under the dimensional combinations defined. The weights are guided by the NSFR standard. The available stable funding is then taken as a total of all the weighted amounts where an ASF factor is applied.

Foreign bank branches can account for the undrawn contractual committed facilities from its head office or other branches which are the same entity and are regional hubs as ASF up to 40% of the minimum ASF required meeting the minimum requirement of NSFR.

The formula for calculating the Available Amount of Stable Funding is as follows:

This illustration shows the formula to calculate the ASF factor.

The following is an example of applying the ASF factor:

Consider an assumption defined with the following dimensional combination and ASF factors, based on the measure being Total Stable Balance.

LRRCBNM application does not compute ASF items such as Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital, deferred tax liabilities, and minority interest. The items are taken as a download from the OFS Basel application. By updating the latest Basel Run Skey as a setup parameter, the LRRCBNM application picks up the respective standard accounting head balances and applies the respective ASF factors.

If OFS Basel is not installed, then the following items must be provided as a download in the FCT_STANDARD_ACCT_HEAD table.

·        Gross Tier 2 Capital

·        Deferred Tax Liability related to Other Intangible Asset

·        Deferred Tax Liability related to Goodwill

·        Deferred Tax Liability related to MSR

·        Deferred Tax Liability related to Deferred Tax Asset

·        Deferred Tax Liability related to Defined Pension Fund Asset

·        Net CET1 Capital post-Minority Interest Adjustment

·        Net AT1 Capital post-Minority Interest Adjustment

·        Total Minority Interest required for NSFR

Computing Required Amount of Stable Funding

The required stable funding factor is a pre-determined weight ranging from 0% to 100% which is applied through business assumptions for the accounts falling under the defined dimensional combinations. The weights are as guided by the NSFR standard. The required stable funding is then considered as a sum of all the weighted amounts where an RSF factor is applied. 

The required stable funding factor is a weight function and is applied similarly to that of the ASF. following formula is used for calculating the Required Amount of Stable Funding:

This illustration shows the formula to calculate the RSF factor.

Computing Off-Balance Sheet Items

Off-balance sheet items are considered under the application of RSF factor and are given the appropriate factor as guided. Some combinations such as the  lines of credit have a pre-defined RSF factor as guided and are available as pre-seeded assumptions. Other off-balance sheet products such as Variable Rate Demand Notes (VRDN) and Adjustable Rate Notes (ARN) do not have pre-defined factors and are left to the discretion of the jurisdictions. For such products, define assumptions and apply the desired RSF factors as applicable.

Computing Derivatives

Derivatives are handled by applying both ASF and RSF factors as applicable. They can behave as either an asset or a liability, depending on the marked to market value. The application of factors on derivatives is done on the market value after subtracting the variation margin posted/received against the account. The computation is described as follows:

1.     NSFR derivative liabilities = Derivative liabilities – (Total collateral posted as variation margin against the derivative liabilities)

2.     NSFR derivative assets = Derivative assets – (Cash collateral received as variation margin against the derivative assets)

3.     The factors are then applied as follows:

§       ASF factor application

ASF amount for derivatives = 0% * Max ((NSFR derivative liabilities – NSFR derivative assets), 0)

§       RSF factor application

RSF amount for derivatives = 100% * Max ((NSFR derivative assets- NSFR derivative liabilities), 0)

Derivative liabilities refer to those derivative accounts where the market value is negative. Derivative assets refer to those derivative accounts where the market value is positive. Apart from the variation margin, the initial margin against derivative contracts is also treated with the appropriate factor.

Computing Net Stable Funding Ratio

The Net Stable Funding Ratio is calculated as follows:

This illustration shows the formula to calculate the NSFR.
