• Deductions from Total Capital

    • CM-5.5.13

      The CBB will closely examine all exposures to "connected counterparties" and will deduct them from the bank's consolidated Total Capital if they are, in the CBB's opinion, of the nature of a capital investment, or provision of long-term working capital, or are made on particularly concessionary terms.

Any cross-holdings that occur due to acquisitions or takeovers must be deducted from the concerned bank's Total Capital (see also CA-2).
