Question

Question regarding what the Collateral Portfolio value should be in the following scenario: A deal is backed by two collateral pools, Pool 1 and Pool 2. The deal is divided into three tranches, A, B, and C. A and B are senior tranches, C is a junior tranche. Pool 1 pays tranche A, Pool 2 pays tranche B, and then tranche C receives the residual collateral after tranches A and B are fully paid. In this case, do you consider tranche A or B is sharing one collateral pool with C? Or, would A and B both be 2 - "Collateral calculated on the basis of a single contract" since the collateral isn't "shared" until A and B are paid off?

Background

We are trying to improve the coverage and accuracy when reporting on Collateral Portfolio

Answer

EIOPA agrees with the proposed answer for “C0140 - Collateral portfolio". Given the information provided for this example, it is correct to report for tranches A and B  "Collateral calculated on the basis of a single contract" and  "Collateral calculated on the basis of net positions resulting from a set of contracts" for tranche C.
