The Group defines credit concentration risk as the risk arising from a considerable exposure to single customers or groups of related customers whose repayment capacity depends on a common risk factor. The Group analyses the risk of concentration towards:
The objective of concentration risk management is to ensure a safe structure of the loan portfolio by mitigating threats arising from excessive concentrations relating to exposures characterized by the potential to generate significant losses for the Group.
The Group measures and assesses concentration risk by examining the actual aggregate exposure to a customer or to a group of related customers and the actual aggregate exposure to individual groups of loan portfolios.
The Group’s actual exposure is defined in the CRR, which means all assets or off-balance sheet items, including exposures in the banking and trading book and indirect exposures arising from the collateral applied.
Concentration risk is identified by recognizing the factors due to which the risk may arise or the level of the Group’s exposure may change, including potential risk factors resulting, for example, from planned activities of the Group. In the process of identifying concentration risk, the Group:
The Group uses the following to measure concentration risk:
To measure concentration risk and evaluate the effect of internal and external factors on this risk, the Group performs stress tests with respect to concentration risk for large exposures.
Group monitors concentration risk:
The Group forecasts changes in the level of concentration risk as part of its analyses and reviews of internal limits and the concentration risk management policy, and in the process of concentration risk stress testing.
The Group performs stress tests to examine, for example, the effect of macroeconomic factors on individual concentrations, the impact of decisions of other financial market participants, decisions on customer mergers, dependency on other risks, for example, currency risk, which may contribute to the materialization of concentration risk, and the effect of other factors from the internal and external environment on the concentration risk.
Concentration risk is tested as part of comprehensive stress tests which enable evaluating the forecast effect of correlated credit, interest rate, currency, operating and liquidity risks and concentration risk on the expected credit losses of the Group.
Reports on concentration risk are prepared on a daily, monthly and quarterly basis.
Concentration risk reporting comprises periodic (monthly or quarterly) reporting to the Bank’s relevant bodies on the scale of exposure to concentration risk, which may lead to a significant change in the Bank’s risk profile, including in particular:
The purpose of management actions is to shape and optimize the concentration risk management process and concentration risk level at the Group (preventing excessive concentrations).
Management actions comprise in particular:
The Banking Law sets the limits of the maximum exposure of the Bank which are translated to the Group. The risk of concentration of exposures to individual customers and groups of related customers is monitored in accordance with the CRR, according to which the Group shall not assume an exposure to a customer or a group of related customers the value of which exceeds 25% of the value of its eligible capital.
As at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018, concentration limits were not exceeded. As at 31 December 2019, the largest exposure to a single entity accounted for 9.62% of eligible consolidated capital (7.55% as at 31 December 2018).
