Macroprudential measures – Belgium

The Belgian macroprudential authority reduced from 9% to 6 % the sectoral systemic risk buffer rate on IRB retail exposures to natural persons secured by residential immovable property for which the collateral is located in Belgium (both non-defaulted and defaulted exposures).

The Czech National Bank is not reciprocating this measure, as the relevant exposure of domestic banks is immaterial. However, the Czech National Bank will continue assessing relevant exposures  and stands ready to amend its decision if necessary.
