Artikel 5 Process och förfaranden för att testa scenarier med likviditetsstress


Summary What does Article 5 of the RTS on liquidity management policy say?

This article builds directly on the liquidity management framework established in earlier articles, specifically adding detailed requirements around stress testing.

It requires issuers of asset-referenced tokens and e-money tokens to embed liquidity stress testing processes and procedures within their liquidity management policies, covering the full lifecycle of a stress test from design through to outcome and any remedial action taken.

A notable requirement is the inclusion of a reverse stress test, which works backwards to identify the point at which the reserve of assets would break down under pressure.

Important points:

  • Embed liquidity stress testing processes and procedures, including the risks covered, parameters used, historical data and assumptions, and the outcomes and remedies, within your liquidity management policy.
  • The stress testing must include a reverse stress test element to assess the resilience limits of each reserve of assets.
  • These obligations apply to issuers of both asset-referenced tokens and e-money tokens.
