IV. ICAAP- NBR approach (1)
‣ ICAAP is a key risk-management elements for institutions and supervisors
‣ The ICAAP plays a key role in the risk management of credit institutions and in
the SREP
‣ Banks use internal capital assessment processes to manage their capital levels
‣ It is the responsibility of the institution to ensure that its ICAAP is prudent and
conservative and remain comprehensive and proportionate to the nature,
scale and complexity of its activities, bearing in mind that proportionality is not to be
applied in a way that undermines the effectiveness of its ICAAP.
‣ Bank’s board has the ultimate responsibility for the sound operation
and financial condition of the bank
‣ The NBR assesses banks’ ICAAPs as part of SREP
‣ The SREP is flexible and adjustable to ensure risk-based supervision.
‣ Frequency, scope and depth with which the elements of the SREP are
assessed can vary, depending on the level of the supervisory engagement
(annually according to Romanian framework).
