Question

Can you please advise if United Kindgom, as a former member of EU, benefit from a special treatment with regards to article 107, paragraph 3 from Regulation 575/2013 (CRR) ? In addition, for branches located in UK of EU or third-countries credit institutions listed as equivalent, do they need to be considered as UK credit institutions anyway ?

Background

Basel on article 107, paragraph 3 from CRR, we understood that exposures to a third-country credit institution shall be treated as exposures to an institution only where the third country applies prudential and supervisory requirements to that entity that are at least equivalent to those applied in the Union. Eu decision 2021/1753 has provided the official list of third-countries considered as ''equivalent''. We are surprised to not find in this list the United Kindgom which is one of the main financial centers.
