Article 8 Specificities for pooled or joint TLPTs

Where several financial entities and several TLPT authorities are involved in a TLPT, the roles of all parties in the TLPT process should be specified to conduct the most efficient and safe test. For the purposes of pooled testing, specific requirements are necessary to specify the role of the designated financial entity, namely that it should be in charge of providing all necessary documentation to the lead TLPT authority and of monitoring the test process. The designated financial entity should also be in charge of the common aspects of the risk management assessment. Notwithstanding the role of the designated financial entity, the obligations of each financial entity participating to the pooled TLPT process should remain unaffected during the pooled test. The same principle should apply for joint TLPTs.
