The Financial Stability Board invites comments on this consultation report "Evaluation of the Effects of the G20 Financial Regulatory Reforms on Securitisation" and the questions set out below.''

Responses should be submitted via this secure online form by 2 September 2024

Questions

Overall

• Preliminary findings: Does the report draw the appropriate inferences about the extent to which the securitisation reforms have achieved their objectives? Is there other evidence on the effects of the reforms to complement the preliminary findings of the report?
• Analytical approach: Are the descriptive analyses used to evaluate the effects of the securitisation reforms appropriate? Are there other such analyses to consider? What types of empirical analysis based on available data could inform the evaluation?

Overview of securitisation markets

• Trends: Are the securitisation market trends presented in this report adequate given the scope of the evaluation? Are there other important trends that should be included and, if so, what additional data sources could be used for this purpose?

Securitisation reforms

• Relevant reforms: Does the report appropriately describe the key aspects of the design and jurisdictional implementation of the BCBS and IOSCO reforms for analysing their impact on securitisation markets? Are there other important aspects of these reforms that should be considered for inclusion?
• Other reforms: Does the report accurately identify other G20 and domestic financial reforms that are most relevant for securitisation markets? Are there other reforms that hould be considered in terms of their impact on market participants?
• Conceptual framework: Does the report adequately explain the objectives, transmission channels and expected outcomes of the securitisation reforms? What other metrics to assess the impact of the reforms should be considered?

Effectiveness of the securitisation reforms

• Resilience metrics for the CLO market: Does the report accurately describe the volution of resilience indicators for the CLO market? To what extent can the evolution of these indicators be attributed to the reforms?
• Risk retention in CLOs: Does the report accurately describe risk retention practices in the CLO market before and after the reforms? What additional analysis could be included to assess the effectiveness of risk retention in CLOs across FSB jurisdictions, including on how financing of risk retention deals by third party investors impacts effectiveness?
• Resilience metrics for the non-agency RMBS market: Does the report accurately describe the evolution of resilience indicators for the RMBS market? To what extent can he evolution of these indicators be attributed to the reforms?
• Risk retention in RMBS: Does the report accurately describe risk retention practices in the RMBS market before and after the reforms? What additional analyses could be included to assess the effectiveness of risk retention in RMBS across FSB jurisdictions?
• Effectiveness of BCBS securitisation reforms: Does the report accurately describe the changes in bank behaviour following the implementation of the BCBS securitisation framework reforms? To what extent can the effects of these reforms be disentangled from the broader Basel III framework, other reforms and confounding factors?
• Simple, transparent and comparable (STC) securitisations: Does the report accurately describe the impact of the introduction of the STC framework on the securitisation market? To what extent has the reform met its objectives?

Broader effects of the reforms

• Effects on financing the economy: Does the report accurately describe the main effects of the reforms on financing the economy? Is there additional analysis that could be undertaken to estimate the benefits and costs of these reforms and to assess their impact on securitisation as a financing tool?
• Effects on financial system structure and resilience: Does the report accurately scribe the extent to which there has been a redistribution of risk from the banking to the non-bank financial intermediation sector What role did the reforms play in this process and what are the main benefits and risks from a system-wide perspective? How have the reforms impacted the demand and supply of liquidity in securitisation markets?

Additional considerations

• Other issues:Are there any other issues or relevant factors that should be considered as part of the evaluation?

Learn about Significant Risk Transfer (SRT) in Central & Eastern Europe through SCI’s Emerging Europe SRT Seminar. Tailored for emerging SRT practitioners, this event provides insights into the unique challenges and opportunities in SRT strategies. Connect with industry leaders for practical insights on navigating this evolving landscape.

SRT transactions are increasingly common across Central and Eastern Europe, with local regulators showing acceptance of synthetic securitization. A growing ecosystem of legal, tax, and capital advisors is supporting this trend. While Poland leads in SRT activity, other CEE markets are also expected to grow. This growth is anticipated to be gradual, with new players entering the market and existing ones issuing repeat deals as investor interest in the region grows.

Panel highlight:

Is there such a thing as a CEE SRT market?

The CEE region offers unique dynamics with diverse jurisdictions and evolving securitisation landscapes. Dive into discussions on:

- Interplay between SRT and regional legal frameworks
- Regulatory support for synthetic securitisation
- Key challenges and opportunities in the CEE SRT market
- Identifying portfolios for homogeneous reference pools
- Exploring possibilities for multi-jurisdictional or multi-asset class trades

"The UK securitization market sits on the precipice of radical change. Brexit has put the UK government in charge of its regulatory destiny, while the 20+ years of blissfully low-interest rates is well and truly over. After years of struggling, some would say to exist, market participants in UK securitization finally feel like they have a chance to compete. Old faces are beginning to return to the market while new ones are dipping their toes in the water.

Join GlobalCapital on March 13 in London for the opportunity to get ahead of these defining moments for the industry." - GlobalCapital Event Overview

The UK Treasury has published the final draft of the rules that will replace the European Union Securitisation Regulation.

You can find our comments and the documents here

Although the UK Treasury has indicated that this is very much a final draft and that it has been published only for "final checks" they will entertain comments until 21 August

On 7 August 2023, FCA will publish a consultation paper (CP) setting out proposed rules to replace the firm-facing provisions from the UK Securitisation Regulation (UK SR) which are being transferred into our Handbook.

This CP should be read alongside the Treasury’s near-final draft of a Statutory Instrument, which will keep part of the UK SR in new legislation.

Supervisory responsibility for the UK SR is currently shared primarily between us and the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA).

The PRA has published its own CP on proposed rules to replace firm-facing requirements in the UK SR, which it has supervisory responsibility for.

On 28th of July 2022 the European Banking Authority launched a consultation on the homogeneity of the underlying exposures in STS securitisation.

The consultation is addressing the issue of the homogeneity in the context of synthetic STS securitisation. Although the scope is extended to also cover on-balance-sheet (synthetic) securitisations, at the same time it establishes the same criteria for the assessment of homogeneity for all securitisations.

More specifically, given the relevance of corporate and SME loans in the context of synthetic securitisations, adjustments have been made to the type of obligor to reflect the current market practices and the credit risk assessment approaches applied to those asset types.

At the same time the in the proposal, we see that similar changes are made to the respective homogeneity factor for all relevant asset types. The proposal further specifies the asset type for credit facilities provided to enterprises, where similar underwriting standards are applied as for individuals.

The deadline for submission of comments is 28th October 2022
