12. Requirements to the Concentration Risk Management  

12.1. The bank shall identify the concentration risk and manage it. The concentration risk is a possibility to bear the potential losses that can significantly deteriorate the financial position of the bank and lead to the impossibility to carry out the current operations, which can occur due to the concentration of the activity with definite persons, on the definite types of the instruments, the assets and the liabilities, the sectors of the economy, the regions and the countries. The concentration risk is not an isolated type of the banking risks, but generalized and can include the elements of the following banking risks: credit, sectoral, country (regional), as a result of the concentration of the activity on some types of the operations or on some sources of funding. 

12.2. The bank shall develop a risk management policy, including the concentration risk. The concentration risk management policy (hereinafter - the policy) shall take into account the following issues: 

- when working with an individual client (an individual or a legal entity), the bank shall consider a group of related parties as one client and all amounts of the various types of the banks assets provided to the group of related parties shall be summed up and considered as one asset; 

- when mobilizing the funds, the bank shall consider a group of related persons as one client (the concentration of the funds mobilization from one client can negatively influence the activity of the bank). The bank shall reflect the activity regarding the sources of funding in the policy and shall specify the terms for acceptance of the deposits and other types of the liabilities (hereinafter the deposits), determine the amounts of the large deposits and the criteria when different deposits shall be summed up and considered as one deposit in its internal documents;  

- when investing the funds to the various sectors of the economy, the bank shall account the interrelation of the different sectors of the economy. The bank carrying out its activity in the definite sectors of the economy, oblasts and countries is exposed to the different types of the risks. Deterioration of the situation in these sectors of the economy, oblasts and countries exposes the bank to the risk of losses due to non-return and outflow of the placed and mobilized funds of the bank, respectively. One of the main criteria, on which the amount of these losses will depend, is the degree of the concentration risk; 

- the sizes of the various pledges shall be evaluated by the bank. The concentration risk materializes if one type of the collateral security on the loans is concentrated in the bank. At that, the value of the pledge and the state of the clients business can be absolutely unconnected; 

- the bank shall carry out an analysis of each financial instrument to reveal its characteristics, due to which it carries the risks of the different type that can lead to the losses; 

- interrelations of the different types of the risks and their impact on the concentration risk shall be evaluated by the bank. When the different types of the risks interact, the concentration risk can increase (for example, depreciation of the national currency of an importing client can increase the degree of his/her risk of non-return or the country risk, and on the whole, the concentration risk also increases); 

- when managing the concentration risk, the bank shall assess the effectiveness of its activity diversification. 

12.3. The Board of Directors and the Management Board of the bank shall have the information on the concentration risk of all types of the banks activity. The measurement system of the concentration risk shall unite the exposure to the concentration risk arising from the various types of the banks activity. The bank in order to determine the concentration risk assumed by the bank shall, at least, measure the following positions: 

а) the amounts of the investments of the banks funds: 

- to the definite types of the assets; 

- per one borrower related to the bank and not related to the bank ((10) See the note); 

- to the definite sector of the economy; 

- to the oblast (the region) of the Republic; 

- to the country; 

b) the amounts of the definite types of the liabilities; 

c) the amounts of the various types of the pledges. 

12.4. The bank shall establish the system of the concentration risk restriction that will quantify the size of the maximum allowable concentration risk for the bank and this system shall be periodically reviewed. The bank shall, at least, set the following restrictions of the concentration risk: 

- restrictions related to the concentration on some financial instruments; 

- definite types of the assets in the unit weight from the amount of all assets; 

- definite types of the liabilities in the unit weight from the amount of all liabilities; 

- loans and other types of the debt of one borrower related to the bank in the unit weight from the net total capital. The value of the restriction set by the bank shall not violate the value of the ratios set by this Regulation; 

- loans and other types of the debt of one borrower not related to the bank in the unit weight from the net total capital. The value of the restriction set by the bank shall not violate the value of the ratios set by this Regulation;  

- investments, loans and equivalent assets invested in one oblast in the unit weight from all assets; 

- investments, loans and equivalent assets invested in one country in the unit weight from all assets; 

- investments, loans and equivalent assets invested in one sector of the economy in the unit weight from all assets; 

- ten largest loans and equivalent assets provided by the bank to its clients in the unit weight from all loans provided by the bank;  

- ten largest loans and equivalent assets provided by the bank to its insiders and affiliated companies in the unit weight from all loans provided by the bank; 

- deposits of the individuals in the unit weight from total mobilized deposits; 

- definite types of the liabilities mobilized by the bank from one sector of the economy in the unit weight from the amount of all liabilities of the bank; 

- ten largest funding sources of the bank in the unit weight from the amount of all liabilities of the bank; 

- definite types of the collateral security on the loans in the unit weight from the amount of all collateral securities. 

The sector of the economy is determined depending on the type of the economic activity of an economic entity leading to receipt of the homogeneous set of products (goods or services). The bank shall set the restrictions of the concentration risk as per the sectors of the economy. 

12.5. The bank shall at least monthly monitor the level of the concentration risk in all forms of its materialization, analyze the current situation and plan the activity of the risk management (analytical reports, tables, charts and diagrams) and all this shall be submitted to the management of the bank. The management of the bank shall periodically revise the concentration risk management policy. 

12.6. The information on the concentration risk management shall be disclosed to the full when publishing the financial statements, including the quantitative indicators of the concentration risk assumed by the bank.
