These guidelines provide three disclosure templates that institutions will have to fill in together with some additional information about the importance of encumbrance in their individual funding model.
Disclosure on asset encumbrance increases market discipline and allows market participants to better understand and analyse the liquidity and solvency profiles of institutions. These guidelines are the first step towards a harmonised disclosure framework of asset encumbrance in the EU. They have been drafted in accordance with the Recommendation D of the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB).
