Consistently with the standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, since 1 January 2025, Article 133(5) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (CRR) (3) allows institutions to apply a favourable treatment for equity exposures incurred under legislative programmes to stimulate specific sectors of the economy. To be eligible, such legislative programmes must provide significant subsidies or guarantees for the investment of the institutions, involve some form of government oversight, and contain restrictions on the equity investment. Subject to the prior permission of competent authorities, institutions can apply the favourable treatment to equity exposures incurred under legislative programmes up to the part of such equity exposures that in aggregate does not exceed 10 % of the institutions’ own funds.
