29 Securitisations, asset transfers and other collateral given
Secured funding
The Group has access to secured funding markets through own-asset
securitisation and covered bond funding programmes to complement
existing wholesale funding programmes and access to the repo markets.
The Group monitors and manages encumbrance levels related to these
secured funding programmes. This includes the potential encumbrance of
Group assets that could be used in own-asset securitisations and/or
covered bonds that could be used as contingent liquidity.
Own-asset securitisations
The Group has a programme of own-asset securitisations where assets
are transferred to bankruptcy remote SPEs funded by the issue of debt
securities. The majority of the risks and rewards of the portfolio are
retained by the Group and these SPEs are consolidated and all of the
transferred assets retained on the Group’s balance sheet. In some own-
asset securitisations, the Group may purchase all the issued securities
which are available to be pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements with major central banks.
Covered bond programme
Certain loans and advances to customers have been assigned to
bankruptcy remote limited liability partnerships to provide security for
issues of covered bonds by the Group. The Group retains all of the risks
and rewards of these loans, the partnerships are consolidated, the loans
retained on the Group’s balance sheet and the related covered bonds
included within debt securities in issue.
The following table shows:
(i) the asset categories that have been pledged to secured funding
structures, including assets backing publicly issued own-asset
securitisations and covered bonds; and
(ii) any currently unencumbered assets that could be substituted into
those portfolios or used to collateralise debt securities which may be
retained by the Group for contingent liquidity purposes.
