2. The ECB may grant exemptions from the minimum reserve requirements in Article 3, upon request by the relevant NCB, where any of the following apply: (a) an institution is subject to a reorganisation measure pursuant to Directive 2001/24/EC; (b) an institution is subject to a freezing order imposed by the Union or by a Member State, or is subject to measures imposed by the Union pursuant to Article 75 of the Treaty, which restricts the institution’s ability to use its funds; (c) that institution’s access to the Eurosystem’s open market operations or standing facilities has been suspended or excluded by the ECB and NCBs (Eurosystem) pursuant to Guideline (EU) 2015/510 of the European Central Bank (ECB/2014/60) ( 5 ); (d) it is not appropriate to require minimum reserves from that institution.

For the purposes of point (c) of the first subparagraph, where an institution’s access to the Eurosystem’s open market operations or standing facilities is restored by the Governing Council of the ECB pursuant to Article 158 of Guideline (EU) 2015/510 (ECB/2014/60), the exemption shall no longer apply from the start of the next maintenance period.

4. The exemptions referred to in this Article shall apply from the start of the maintenance period in which the relevant event occurs.

Article 5

Reserve base

1. Institutions shall calculate their reserve base using the statistical information on the following liabilities reported pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2): (a) deposits; (b) debt securities issued.

Where an institution holds liabilities owed to a branch of the same entity located outside the euro area, or to the head office or registered office of the same entity which is located outside the euro area, those liabilities shall be included in the reserve base.

2. The following liabilities shall be excluded from the reserve base calculated pursuant to paragraph 1: (a) liabilities owed to any other institution where that institution: (i) is subject to minimum reserve requirements pursuant to this Regulation; and (ii) is not exempt or has not been granted an exemption from minimum reserve requirements pursuant to Article 4; (b) liabilities owed to the ECB or to an NCB of a euro area Member State.

3. Where liabilities are excluded from the reserve base in accordance with paragraph 2, the institution shall: (a) inform the relevant NCB of the excluded amount without undue delay; (b) provide evidence of those liabilities; (c) deduct the amount of those liabilities from the reserve base after providing evidence of the amount to the relevant NCB in accordance with point (b).

For the purposes of point (b), where an institution is unable to provide evidence to the relevant NCB of the amount of liabilities within the category of ‘debt securities issued’, that institution shall apply the standard deduction published on the ECB’s website to the outstanding amount of the debt securities which it has issued and which have an original maturity of up to and including two years.

4. The ECB, when determining the standard deduction applied to liabilities within the debt securities category with a maturity of up to two years referred to in paragraph 3, shall take into account the euro area-wide macro ratio between the stock of relevant instruments issued by credit institutions and held by other credit institutions and by the ECB and relevant NCBs and the total amount outstanding of such instruments issued by credit institutions.

5. Institutions shall calculate their reserve base with respect to a particular maintenance period on the basis of the data relating to the month two months prior to the month within which the maintenance period starts.

6. Tail institutions, as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2), shall calculate their reserve base for two consecutive maintenance periods beginning with the maintenance period starting in the third month after the end of a quarter, on the basis of end-of-quarter data reported in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2). Those institutions shall notify the relevant NCB of their minimum reserves in accordance with Article 7.

Article 6

Calculation of minimum reserves

1. Minimum reserves held by institutions pursuant to Article 3 shall be calculated using the following reserve ratios for each of the liabilities of the reserve base referred to in Article 5: (a) a reserve ratio of 0 % shall apply to the following categories referred to in Part 2 of Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2): (i) deposits which fulfil one of the following conditions: — have an agreed maturity over two years; — are redeemable at notice over two years; — are repurchase agreements (repos); (ii) debt securities issued with an original maturity over two years; (b) a reserve ratio of 1 % on all other liabilities included in the reserve base.

2. NCBs or the institution shall deduct a lump sum allowance of EUR 100 000 from the calculation of minimum reserves of each institution, subject to the requirements of Articles 10 to 12.

3. NCBs shall use the minimum reserves calculated in accordance with Article 6 for the following: (a) to remunerate holdings of minimum reserves; (b) to assess whether Article 3(1)(a) is fulfilled.

Article 7

Notification of minimum reserves

1. NCBs shall establish the procedure for notifying institutions’ individual minimum reserves. That procedure shall include whether the relevant NCB or the institution calculates the minimum reserves in accordance with Article 6.

2. Where the relevant NCB calculates an institution’s minimum reserves pursuant to paragraph 1, all of the following shall apply: (a) the relevant NCB shall notify that institution of its minimum reserves at the latest three NCB business days before the start of the maintenance period; (b) that institution shall acknowledge its minimum reserves at the latest on the NCB business day preceding the start of the maintenance period; (c) where the institution does not reply to the notification referred to in point (a) by the end of the NCB business day preceding the start of the maintenance period, the acknowledgement referred to in point (b) shall be deemed to have taken place and the minimum reserves notified shall apply to that institution for that maintenance period.

3. Where an institution calculates its minimum reserves pursuant to paragraph 1, all of the following shall apply: (a) that institution shall notify the relevant NCB of its minimum reserves at the latest three NCB business days before the start of the maintenance period; (b) the relevant NCB shall acknowledge that institution’s minimum reserves at the latest on the NCB business day preceding the start of the maintenance period; (c) if the relevant NCB does not reply to the notification referred to in point (a) by the end of the NCB business day preceding the start of the maintenance period, the acknowledgement referred to in point (b) shall be deemed to have taken place and the minimum reserves notified shall apply to that institution for that maintenance period.

4. For the purposes of paragraphs 2 and 3, the relevant NCB may specify an earlier date for the notification of the minimum reserves.

5. NCBs may specify the conditions and time limits within which institutions may revise the reserve base and the minimum reserves notified in accordance with this Article. No revisions shall be permitted after the acknowledgement of minimum reserves referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3.

6. The relevant NCBs shall make available calendars indicating the time limits for the notification and acknowledgement of data relevant to the calculation of minimum reserves for the implementation of the procedures mentioned in this Article.

7. Where an institution has failed to report the statistical information specified in Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2), the relevant NCB shall estimate the minimum reserves of that institution for the relevant maintenance period on the basis of historical information reported by the institution and any other relevant information, and shall notify the institution of its minimum reserves at least three NCB business days before the start of that maintenance period.

Article 8

Maintenance period

1. A maintenance period shall begin on the settlement day of the main refinancing operation following the meeting of the Governing Council at which the assessment of the monetary policy stance is pre-scheduled and shall end the day before the start of the following maintenance period, unless otherwise specified by the Governing Council.

Article 9

Remuneration

1. The relevant NCB shall remunerate holdings of minimum reserves in the reserve accounts at the average, taken over the maintenance period, of the Eurosystem’s deposit facility rate (weighted according to the number of calendar days) according to the following formula (whereby the result is rounded to the nearest cent): Where:



Rt = remuneration to be paid on holdings of minimum reserves for the maintenance period t; Ht = average daily holdings of minimum reserves for the maintenance period t; nt = number of calendar days in the maintenance period t; rt = rate of remuneration on holdings of minimum reserves for the maintenance period t; standard rounding of the rate of remuneration to two decimals shall be applied; i = ith calendar day of the maintenance period t; DFRi = the deposit facility rate on each day i of the maintenance period.

2. The relevant NCB shall pay the remuneration on the holdings of minimum reserves on the second TARGET2 business day following the end of the maintenance period over which the remuneration was earned.

3. Funds included in holdings of minimum reserves that are subsequently excluded from those minimum reserves pursuant to Article 3(1)(d) shall be remunerated by the relevant NCB in accordance with the rules applicable to non-monetary policy deposits in Guideline (EU) 2019/671 of the European Central Bank (ECB/2019/7) ( 6 ), with effect from the date the specific condition of Article 3(1)(d) applies, as determined by the relevant NCB.

4. Where a parent applies for permission to hold the minimum reserves of the group as an intermediary pursuant to paragraph 3, that parent shall conclude an agreement with each institution in that group to act as an intermediary. Those agreements shall specify at least the following: (a) whether the parent or subsidiaries will access Eurosystem standing facilities and open market operations; (b) a notice period of at least 12 months.

5. The relevant NCB may grant permission to the applicant institution to hold minimum reserves through an intermediary and shall notify that institution and the intermediary institution thereof without undue delay. That permission shall take effect from the start of the first maintenance period following the date permission is granted, and shall apply for the duration of the agreement referred to in paragraph 2 or 4, or until the permission is withdrawn pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8.

A permission granted to an institution to hold minimum reserves through an intermediary pursuant to Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 1745/2003 (ECB/2003/9) shall be deemed to be granted in accordance with this paragraph for the purposes of this Regulation.

6. Where an intermediary institution holds minimum reserves for another institution pursuant to this Article, it shall hold those reserves in its own reserve accounts in addition to its own reserves held in accordance with this Regulation.

7.

Article 11

Aggregated reporting of the reserve base

1. Where an institution applies to the relevant NCB for permission to hold all its minimum reserves indirectly through a parent institution pursuant to Article 10(3), that parent institution may apply to the relevant NCB for permission to report the reserve base and the reserve base of the institutions in that group on an aggregated basis and in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2). NCBs may grant permission to parent institutions to report the reserve base on an aggregated basis and in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2).

2. Where a parent institution applies to the relevant NCB for permission to report the reserve base on an aggregated basis pursuant to paragraph 1, the relevant NCB shall ensure that the agreement referred to in Article 10(4) includes an acknowledgement of the potential loss of the deduction of the lump sum allowance referred to in Article 6(2) at an individual level.

3. Where the relevant NCB grants permission to a parent institution to report the reserve base on an aggregated basis pursuant to paragraph 1, it shall notify the relevant institution thereof without undue delay. That permission shall take effect from the start of the first maintenance period following the date that the permission is granted, and shall apply for the duration of the agreement referred to in paragraph 2 or until that permission is withdrawn.

4. Where the relevant NCB grants permission to a parent institution to report the reserve base on an aggregated basis pursuant to paragraph 1, one lump sum allowance referred to in Article 6(2) shall be automatically deducted from the minimum reserves held by the intermediary institution.

5. A permission granted to an institution by the ECB to report the reserve base on an aggregated basis pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 1745/2003 (ECB/2003/9) shall be considered valid and applicable for the purposes of this Regulation until that permission is withdrawn.

Article 12

Mergers and divisions

1. Where a merger takes effect during a maintenance period, all of the following shall apply: (a) the acquiring institution shall fulfil the requirements of this Regulation for the acquired institution; (b) the acquiring institution’s minimum reserves shall be reduced by each lump sum allowance applicable pursuant to Article 6(2); (c) NCBs shall assess whether institutions fulfil the requirements of Article 3(1)(a) by taking into account the end-of day holdings in the reserve accounts of both the acquiring and acquired institutions.

2. The following shall apply during the maintenance period immediately following the maintenance period referred to in paragraph 1: (a) the minimum reserves of the acquiring institution shall be reduced in accordance with Article 6(2) by only one lump sum; and (b) the acquiring institution’s minimum reserves shall be calculated for the purposes of Article 6 using a reserve base which aggregates the reserve bases of the acquired institutions and of the acquiring institution.

For the purposes of point (b), the calculation shall use the reserve bases of each institution for the relevant maintenance period as if the merger had not occurred, and in accordance with the rules set out in Annex III, Part 2 of Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2).

The first subparagraph shall also apply for subsequent maintenance periods where the conditions of paragraph 4 of Part 2 of Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2) are met.

3. Where a division takes effect during a maintenance period, the following shall apply: (a) the recipient institutions which are credit institutions shall fulfil the requirements of this Regulation for the institution being divided; (b) each of the recipient credit institutions shall fulfil the requirements of this Regulation for that part of the reserve base of the institution being divided that is allocated to it; (c) reserves held by the institution being divided shall be allocated proportionally between the recipient institutions; (d) the lump sum allowance referred to in Article 6(2) shall be deducted from the minimum reserves of each recipient institution.

4. The following shall apply during the maintenance period immediately following the maintenance period in which the division takes effect and until the recipient institutions report their respective reserve bases in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/379 (ECB/2021/2): (a) each recipient institution shall fulfil the requirements of this Regulation for that part of the reserve base of the institution being divided that is allocated to it, if any; and (b) the lump sum allowance referred to in Article 6(2) shall be deducted from the minimum reserves of each recipient institution.
