CANADIAN BAIL-IN RESOLUTION FRAMEWORK
Principles based approach to bail-in conversion with no explicit conversion ratio
•
Eligibility criteria for bail-in debt and conversion into common shares under the CDIC Act
○ Senior unsecured debt with original term to maturity > 400 days, issued or re-opened by a D-SIB after issuance regulations
come into force
○ Tradeable and transferable; assigned a CUSIP, ISIN or similar designation
o Excludes deposits, secured liabilities (e.g. covered bonds), eligible financial contracts (i.e. derivatives) and structured notes
(with some exceptions)
• Mechanism - designed using no creditor worse off principle
。 Upon determination by OSFI that a bank has ceased to be viable, CDIC will take temporary control/ownership and carry out
bail-in conversion and /or other restructuring activities
o Creditors should not incur greater losses through bail-in resolution than if institution had been wound-up under normal
insolvency proceedings
Respects relative creditor hierarchy; conversion of subordinate ranking claims before converting any bail-in securities
o Legacy non-NVCC subdebt not subject to the bail-in regime but subject to other resolution regimes available to CDIC
○ Senior creditors should receive relatively better conversion terms vs. junior creditors
o Bail-in risk mitigated by extremely low probability of event
• Principles based approach to bail-in conversion
○ No explicit conversion ratio
