Prudential Standard APS 120

Securitisation Objectives and key requirements of this Prudential Standard This Prudential Standard aims to ensure that an authorised deposit-taking institution adopts prudent practices to manage the risks associated with securitisation and to ensure sufficient regulatory capital is held against the associated credit risk. The key requirements of this Prudential Standard are that an authorised deposit-taking institution must: * have a risk management framework covering its involvement in a securitisation; * ensure there is clear and prominent disclosure of the nature and limitations of its obligations arising from its involvement in a securitisation; * not provide implicit support to a securitisation; and * calculate regulatory capital for credit risk against its securitisation exposures.
