About This Agent

Data on This Page

LCR and NSFR by entity, HQLA stock by liquidity tier, and 30-day net cash outflow projections, each with the regulatory requirement, trend versus prior period, and a healthy/watch status. Stat tiles summarize group LCR (142%), NSFR (118%), total HQLA (£62.3B) and metrics currently under watch.

What This Agent Does

Classifies eligible assets into HQLA Level 1/2A/2B tiers with the correct haircuts, applies run-off and inflow rates to deposits, wholesale funding and committed facilities to project 30-day net outflows, and computes available/required stable funding for NSFR — flagging any tier breaching its 15%/40% composition caps.

Worked Examples

  • £4.1B of Level 2B covered bonds were reclassified this week after a haircut schedule update, pushing the tier close to its 15% HQLA composition cap — flagged watch.
  • 30-day net outflow rose £2.8B on higher projected wholesale funding maturities, trimming group LCR from 145% to 142% but still well above the 100% minimum.
  • Meridian Bank UK plc's standalone LCR of 131% dipped 4pp after a large corporate deposit outflow, still comfortably within its internal risk appetite floor.
