The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) requirement applicable to Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale on a sub-consolidated basis amounts to 8.82% % from January 1st, 2024 (excluding “Pillar 2 guidance”), including:
- 4.50% with respect to the Pilar 1 requirement,
- 2.50% with respect to the capital conservation buffer,
