INSTRUCTIONS FOR PART 2,
CALCULATION OF RISK WEIGHTED ASSETS
General instructions have been
provided below for each row of the worksheet to assist banks in allocating
the balance sheet or credit equivalent amounts in Column A to the risk
weight categories in Columns B through E and the other categories in Columns
F and G. These instructions generally provide an appropriate allocation
for most banks. In addition, banks should be aware that there are specific
exceptions to the general instructions for risk weight categories. Some
of the most common exceptions to the general instructions for risk weight
categories have also been provided for certain assets and other bank transactions.
For further information on allocating assets and off-balance sheet transactions
to the proper risk weight category, banks should consult the Risk-Based
Capital Guidelines.
In order to save time and reduce
burden, a bank may decide not to determine every asset or off-balance
sheet transaction that is accorded a lower risk weight than the maximum
risk weight (i.e., 100% generally and 50% for derivative contracts). Accordingly,
at its option, a bank may risk-weight any asset or the credit equivalent
amount of any off-balance sheet item (excluding nonqualifying intangibles
and other amounts deducted from regulatory capital) at a higher risk weight
than the risk weight that would otherwise apply to the asset or credit
equivalent amount, e.g., at the maximum risk weight.
Columns F and G should include
the amount of the balance sheet assets that are deducted or excluded (not
risk weighted) in the determination of risk-weighted assets. Column F
should include assets that are deducted from capital such as goodwill,
excess net deferred tax assets, excess mortgage servicing assets, reciprocal
holdings of bank capital instruments, and any other assets that must be
deducted in accordance with the requirements of a bank's primary federal
supervisory authority. Column G should include items that are excluded
from the calculation of risk weighted assets such as the allowance for
loan and lease losses and certain on-balance sheet asset amounts associated
with off-balance sheet derivative contracts that are included in the calculation
of their credit equivalent amounts. Columns B through G in each row should
equal the total asset or credit equivalent amount of off-balance sheet
transactions reported in Column A.
Section 1 of this schedule includes
separate line items for assets in balance sheet order. Include in Column
A, the amounts for the applicable line items on Schedule RC, Balance Sheet.
Section 2 of this schedule includes off-balance-sheet transactions. Include
in the Column labelled "Face Value or Notional Amount" the amounts for
the applicable line items as reported on Schedule RC-L, Off-Balance Sheet
Items. Include in Column A, the credit-equivalent amount of the Face Value
or Notional Amount. The credit equivalent amount for most transactions
is determined by multiplying the Face Value or Notional Amount by its
applicable conversion factor. The credit equivalent amount should be determined
prior to assigning an appropriate risk-weight category and should be allocated
to Columns B through E, according to the risk category assigned to each
transaction, in accordance with the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines.
The following are some of the
most common exceptions to the risk weight category assignments that are
described below in the general instructions for each row. These exceptions
enable a bank, at its option, to assign assets and off-balance
sheet items to lower risk weight categories than under the general instructions
for each row.
