The mortgage covered bonds are secured by loans secured by the highest priority mortgage. Additionally, the basis for the issue of mortgage covered bonds can also be PKO Bank Hipoteczny S.A.’s own funds:

  • invested in securities issued or guaranteed by the National Bank of Poland, the European Central Bank, governments and central banks of members of the European Union and/or the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, excluding countries that are restructuring or have restructured their foreign debt in the past 5 years;
  • invested in the National Bank of Poland;
  • held in cash.

The CIRS and FX-Forward transactions which hedge the foreign exchange and interest-rate risk of the issued EUR mortgage covered bonds, and the IRS transactions hedging interest rate risk of the issued PLN fixed-interest-rate mortgage covered bonds were also recognized in the register of collaterals for mortgage covered bonds.

In 2020 and in the previous years the mortgage covered bonds cover pool did not include asset-backed securities (ABS), that do not meet the requirements described in paragraph 1 of Article 80 of the Guideline (EU) 2015/510 of the European Central Bank of 19 December 2014 on the implementation of the Eurosystem monetary policy framework (ECB/2014/60) (recast).

Assets securing payment commitments include Treasury bonds pledged for BGF in the amount which ensures maintaining the ratio of the value of property rights securing payment commitments to the amount of payment commitments of no less than 110%. For purposes of establishing the minimum ratio of assets to the amount of payment commitment, the value of property rights securing payment commitments is determined at the amount specified based on the last fixing rate of the day in the electronic market for Treasury securities organized by the minister responsible for the budgetary matters, plus interest due as at the valuation date, unless interest has already been included in the fixing rate.

Such funds are treated as assets pledged as collateral for own liabilities, they cannot be pledged or encumbered in any way, are excluded from judicial or administrative enforcement proceedings and do not form part of the estate in bankruptcy. The amount of funds securing payment obligations relating to contributions to the BGF will be increased on payment dates of contributions to the Deposit Guarantee Fund (quarterly) and the Bank Resolution Fund (in the third quarter of a given year) representing not more than 30% of the contribution established by the BGF.

The amount of these funds may decrease if the Bank is called by the BGF to transfer the amount corresponding to the value of payment commitments in cash.
