The Reserve Bank of India has set a Rs 25,000 crore threshold for banks required to adopt the Standardised Approach for Counterparty Credit Risk, bringing greater clarity to how lenders must measure risks arising from derivatives and other transactions.
The approach will apply to commercial banks that either have an international presence or report derivative outstanding of Rs 25,000 crore or more on a consolidated group-wide basis as of the reporting date, the RBI said on October 7.
