Title

Finantsinspektsiooni järelevalveline hinnang kapitalile ja AS-i LHV Group sisemised kapitalieesmärgid

Message

Detsembri alguses esitas Finantsinspektsioon LHV Groupile järelevalvelise
hinnangu ja täiendava omavahendite nõude (SREP) kapitali adekvaatsuse arvutuses.
Võrreldes eelmise SREP'ga kapitalinõuded ei muutunud.

Vastavalt Finantsinspektsiooni otsusele rakendub LHV Groupile konsolideeritud
tasemel täiendav omavahendite nõue summas 1,73%, millest vähemalt 0,42% peab
olema kaetud esimese taseme põhiomavahenditega ja vähemalt 0,56% kaetud esimese
taseme omavahenditega. Lisaks kehtib lisakapitalinõue välisriikides asutatud
finantseerimisasutustelt kaasatud hoiuste summalt ning selleks on 0,2%.

Lähtudes Finantsinspektsiooni hinnangust ning lisades sellele sisemised puhvrid,
otsustas AS- i LHV Group nõukogu kehtestada minimaalseks koguomavahendite
suhtarvuks 16,00%, minimaalseks esimese taseme omavahendite suhtarvuks 12,46%
ning minimaalseks esimese taseme põhiomavahendite suhtarvuks 10,63%.

Antud suhtarvude komponentide jaotus on järgmine:

Title

Outcome of Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process by the FSA and AS LHV Group’s internal capital targets

Message

In the beginning of December, the Estonian FSA, Finantsinspektsioon, presented
LHV Group with the outcome of Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP)
capital adequacy calculation. In comparison with earlier there were no changes
in required capital targets.

According to the decision of the FSA, an additional requirement for own funds in
the amount 1.73% applies to LHV Group, of which at least 0.42% must be covered
by Core Tier 1 own funds and at least 0.56% by Tier 1 capital. In addition, an
added capital requirement of 0.2% on deposits taken in from foreign financial
institutions remained in place.

The Supervisory Board of LHV Group based on the FSA decision and adding to it
internal buffers decided to set total CAD target ratio at 16.00%, Tier 1 ratio
at 12.46% and Core Tier 1 ratio to 10.63%.

Underneath is the target split into components:
