Amendment 164 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 24 a (new)
(24 a) A regulation that aims to prevent excessive risk taking related to trading activities should consider the actual risk taken by banks in trading and provide incentives for banks to diminish their trading-related risk exposures or to increase eligible capital in order to comply with the legislation. The measurement of the size of banks' trading activities should make use, but not exclusively, of the prudential measures of risk exposures provided for in Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, since typically those measures capture the actual risk in trading positions better than other measures and since they are clearly defined and controlled through the supervisory framework. Regard should be had to other metrics that might better capture the size of banks’ trading activities.
