The tables below provide an overview of risk-weighted assets broken down by model approach and business division. They include the aggregated effects of the segmental reallocation of infrastructure related positions if applicable as well as reallocations between the segments.
For the current reporting date the amounts presented are based on the CRR/CRD 4 framework according to the transitional rules. The amounts for the comparative period are presented on the then applicable Basel 2.5 framework.
In line with our decision to scale down and discontinue parts of our commodities business, certain portfolios containing discontinued activities were aggregated under the Special Commodities Group (SCG), which has been subsequently transferred from CB&S to NCOU in the first quarter of 2014. The amounts for credit, market and operational risk RWA for the comparative period have been restated including related effects from reallocations between the segments, accordingly.
Within credit risk, the line item “Other” in Advanced IRBA reflects RWA from securitization positions in the banking book, specific equity positions and other non-credit obligation assets. Within the Standardized Approach, the majority of the line item “Other” includes RWAs from our pension fund assets with the remainder being RWAs from banking book securitizations as well as exposures assigned to the further exposure classes apart from central governments or central banks, institutions, corporates and retail.

The classifications of key drivers for the RWA credit risk development table are fully aligned with the recommendations of the Enhanced Disclosure Task Force (EDTF). The category “Book quality” mainly represents the effects from portfolio rating migrations, loss given default, model parameter re-calibrations as well as collateral coverage activities. Organic changes in our portfolio size and composition are considered in the category “Book size”. “Model updates” include model refinements and advanced model roll out. RWA movements resulting from externally, regulatory-driven changes, e.g. applying new regulations, are now considered in the “methodology and policy” section. “Acquisition and disposals” is reserved to show significant exposure movements which can be clearly assigned to new businesses or disposal-related activities.
The increase in RWA for counterparty credit risk by 20.7 % or € 41.9 billion since December 31, 2013 is primarily driven by the impact from foreign exchange movements mainly resulting from a strengthening US Dollar and by the introduction of the new CRR/CRD 4 regulatory framework, which is shown under “Methodology and Policy”. The increase in the category “model updates” represents the impact of a more restrictive application of the maturity capping which allows the bank to use a maturity of one year when calculating the credit risk RWA for derivatives depending on the market risk model applied for the Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) RWA, a model change for our Internal Model Method impacting derivatives RWA as well as a more restrictive application of a Security Financing Collateral haircut. The overall decrease in the category “Book size” is predominantly driven by derivatives and security financing transaction positions mainly in our Core Bank reflecting our de-risking activities. The decrease in the category “Acquisition and Disposals” shows the impact of the sale of BHF-BANK as well as the sale of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. The increase in the category “Other” reflects the effects on RWA subsequent to our share capital increase in the second quarter 2014 (€ 4 billion) with the remaining resulting from movements applying the 10/15 % threshold rule.

CVA RWA balance, end of year |
21,203 |
Based on the new CRR/CRD 4 regulatory framework, we are required to calculate RWA using the CVA which takes into account the credit quality of our counterparties. RWA for CVA covers the risk of mark-to-market losses on the expected counterparty risk in connection with OTC derivative exposures. We calculate the majority of the CVA based on our own internal model as approved by BaFin.
The development of CVA RWA is broken down into a number of categories: movement in risk levels, which includes changes to the portfolio size and composition; market data changes and calibrations, which includes changes in market data levels and volatilities as well as recalibrations; model updates refers to changes to either the IMM credit exposure models or the value-at-risk models that are used for CVA RWA; methodology and policy relates to changes to the regulation, for 2014 the first introduction of CVA RWA. Any significant business acquisitions or disposals would be highlighted on their own.
As of December 31, 2014, the RWA for CVA amounted to € 21.2 billion, representing an increase of € 8.9 billion (72 %) compared with our pro forma calculation of € 12.3 billion for December 31, 2013. The increase was driven by changes to the portfolio as part of regular business activities throughout the year, but also due to re-optimization of the CVA RWA hedging program and market volatility. During the fourth quarter we implemented a change to the value-at-risk model as per the EBA guidelines for CVA which increased the CVA RWA. This was partly offset by further de-risking efforts which reduced capital requirements in both core and non-core business units.

The analysis for market risk covers movements in our internal models for value-at-risk, stressed value-at-risk, incremental risk charge and comprehensive risk measure as well as results from the market risk standardized approach, e.g. for trading securitizations and nth-to-default derivatives or trading exposures for Postbank. The market risk RWA movements due to changes in market data levels, volatilities, correlations, liquidity and ratings are included under the market data changes and recalibrations category. Changes to our market risk RWA internal models, such as methodology enhancements or risk scope extensions, are included in the category of model updates. In the methodology and policy category we reflect regulatory driven changes to our market risk RWA models and calculations. Significant new businesses and disposals would be assigned to the line item acquisition and disposals.
The € 17.0 billion (36 %) RWA increase for market risk since December 31, 2013 was primarily driven by increases in the category methodology and policy as well as movement in risk levels. There is an € 20.1 billion RWA increase for methodology and policy primarily from the Market Risk Standardized Approach for securitizations due to the new regulatory CRR/CRD 4 framework, which became effective on January 1, 2014. In the new framework we assign all retained securitization positions that are unrated or rated below BB a risk weight of 1,250 % to the exposure and these are now included in RWA whereas these exposures were previously considered capital deduction items. Also, under the new framework there is some increase in the floor applied to the comprehensive risk measure for the correlation trading portfolio although this has now been offset by de risking. The increase from model changes is driven by the Incremental Risk Charge with changes for the treatment of unrated and defaulted exposures as well as an increase of the liquidity horizons. There has been a reduction from movements in risk levels since December 31, 2013 particularly coming from the Incremental Risk Charge, Comprehensive Risk Measure and the Market Risk Standardized Approach for securitizations. There has also been an increase from Foreign exchange movements mainly during the second half of the year.

The overall RWA increase of € 16.2 billion was mainly driven by our early recognition of enhancements to our Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) model in the second quarter of this year, which led to additional RWA of € 7.7 billion. From the third quarter, further effects from the model change related to reasonably possible litigation losses are shown under the category “loss profile changes”.
The increase in “loss profile changes” resulted from large external market operational risk events which are reflected in our AMA model, such as settlements of regulatory matters by financial institutions.
Further embedded impacts from the AMA model enhancements on the other operational risk RWA components, specifically on the expected loss, are expected to materialize after the awaited model approval by the joint supervisory team, when the model changes have been implemented.
