Article 132a Approaches for Calculating Risk-Weighted Exposure Amounts of CIUs
1.
Where the conditions set out in Article 132(3) are met, institutions that have sufficient information about the individual underlying exposures of a CIU shall look through to those exposures to calculate the risk-weighted exposure amount of the CIU, risk weighting all underlying exposures of the CIU as if they were directly held by those institutions.

2.
Where the conditions set out in Article 132(3) are met, institutions that do not have sufficient information about the individual underlying exposures of a CIU to use the look-through approach may calculate the risk-weighted exposure amount of those exposures in accordance with the limits set in the CIU's mandate and relevant law.
Institutions shall carry out the calculations referred to in the first subparagraph under the assumption that the CIU first incurs exposures to the maximum extent allowed under its mandate or relevant law in the exposures attracting the highest own funds requirement and then continues incurring exposures in descending order until the maximum total exposure limit is reached, and that the CIU applies leverage to the maximum extent allowed under its mandate or relevant law, where applicable.
Institutions shall carry out the calculations referred to in the first subparagraph in accordance with the methods set out in Chapter 2, in Chapter 5, and in Section 3, 4 or 5 of Chapter 6 of Title Three.

3.
By way of derogation from point (d) of Article 92(3), institutions that calculate the risk-weighted exposure amount of a CIU's exposures in accordance with paragraph 1 or 2 of this Article may calculate the own funds requirement for the credit valuation adjustment risk of derivative exposures of that CIU as an amount equal to 50% of the own funds requirement for those derivative exposures calculated in accordance with Section 3, 4 or 5 of Chapter 6 of Title Two, as applicable.
By way of derogation from the first subparagraph, an institution may exclude from the calculation of the own funds requirement for credit valuation adjustment risk derivative exposures which would not be subject to that requirement if they were incurred directly by the institution.

5.
Where institutions calculate the risk-weighted exposure amount of a CIU's exposures in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Article, and where one or more of the inputs required for the calculation in Section 3, 4 or 5 of Chapter 6 of Title Two is not available, institutions shall carry out the calculation as follows:
Where the replacement cost is unknown, institutions shall set the replacement cost as referred to in Articles 274(2) and 282(2) equal to the sum of the notional amounts of the derivatives in the netting set, and where relevant the multiplier referred to in Article 278(1) shall be set equal to 1.
Where the potential future exposure is unknown, institutions shall set the potential future exposure as referred to in Articles 274(2) and 282(2) equal to 15% of the sum of the notional amounts of the derivatives in the netting set.
