CA-A.3.7
For the measurement of their credit risks, banks have a choice, subject to the written approval of the CBB, between two broad methodologies:
(a) One alternative is to measure the risks in a standardised approach, applying the measurement framework described in Chapter CA-3 of this Module; and
(b) The second methodology (i.e. internal ratings-based approach) is set out in detail in Chapter CA-5 including the procedure for obtaining the CBB's approval. This methodology is subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions. The use of this methodology is, therefore, conditional upon the explicit approval of the CBB.
