CA-8.3.3

An Islamic bank licensee must have methodologies that enable it to assess the credit risk involved in securitisation exposures at individual and portfolio levels. Islamic bank licensees must refer to Paragraph CA-8.2.23 for details of the suggested criteria to be used in credit analysis. An Islamic bank licensee must assess exposures, regardless of whether they are rated or unrated, and determine whether the RWs applied to such exposures, under the standardised approach, are appropriate for their inherent risk. In those instances where an Islamic bank licensee determines that the inherent risk of such an exposure, particularly if it is unrated, is significantly higher than that implied by the RW to which it is assigned, the Islamic bank licensee must consider the higher degree of credit risk in the evaluation of its overall capital adequacy.
