2. Effective from December 31, 2015, all unrated private sector corporate entities with aggregate outstanding exposure from financial institutions (both fund-based and non-fund based) of Rs. 3.0 billion or above, net of liquid assets, will attract risk weight of 125%.

All other instructions on the subject shall remain unchanged.

Please acknowledge receipt.




Yours faithfully,
