Funding programs
Jyske Bank issues bonds and debt instruments in the international financial markets. Debt instruments issued by Jyske Bank A/S can be rated by Standard & Poor’s, see ratings for the specific ratings applied to different types of debt instruments.
Short term funding
Jyske Bank set up a French commercial paper program in 2006 to strengthen diversification of short term funding sources and prolong the duration of the short term funding. Banque de France regulates the program and the Information Memorandum as well as market statistics can be found via the below links:
Long term funding
Jyske Bank set up an EMTN program in 1997. The first senior unsecured public benchmark bond was issued in 2003 and Jyske Bank has since 2011 been an active issuer in the European capital markets.
Jyske Bank's 2022 EMTN Prospectus includes the possibility to issue preferred senior (“PS”) notes as well as non-preferred senior (“NPS”) notes in addition to subordinated Tier 2 notes and AT1 notes. The Prospectus can be found below:
Jyske Bank 2022 EMTN Prospectus
MREL
The Jyske Bank Group’s MREL comprises of:
- Banking activity requirement
- 2 x solvency requirement (loss absorption + recapitalisation) incl. all buffer requirements (counter cyclical buffer (“CCyB”) not doubled up)
- Calculated on the basis of REA for banking activities only
- Mortgage activity requirement
- Capital requirement (loss absorption) and the debt buffer for mortgage institutions which must be 2% of total unweighted mortgage loans
- Group requirement:
- The sum of the group’s capital requirement, debt buffer requirement and bail-inable liabilities must be above 8% of the group’s total liabilities and own funds (TLOF)
Group capital that is utilised towards the mortgage bank’s capital and debt buffer requirements is not eligible to count towards the banking activity MREL requirement.
From January 2022 the regulatory constraint has been the highest of the 8% of Group TLOF requirement and the combined requirement (MREL for banking activities + capital requirement for mortgage activities + mortgage debt buffer)
MREL is set by the Danish FSA on an annual basis as a percentage (%) of banking activity REA.
- The percentage will remain fixed for the following year, but the actual requirement in DKKbn will be dynamic (an increase in banking REA will increase the MREL requirement in DKK bn and vice versa).
- If the capital requirements change (e.g., the reintroduction of the countercyclical buffer (“CCyB”)), the FSA sets a new MREL requirement as a percentage of banking activity REA.
- Variations in Pillar II will not automatically trigger a new MREL requirement.
Countercyclical
buffer (“CCyB”)
As of 31 March 2023 the Danish CCyB requirement has been fully phased in again and constitutes 2.5 % of REA. The CCyB must be subordinated as it is to be fulfilled by CET1.
Upper limit for subordination
BRRD II imposed an
upper limit for subordination in the MREL requirement related to banking
activities, set as the highest of:
- 2 x the solvency requirement plus 1 x the combined buffer requirement (~DKK
42bn)
and - 8 % of banking TLOF (~DKK 22bn)
For the Jyske Bank Group’s banking activity MREL, “a” is the highest. Consequently, the PS allowance for the Jyske Bank Group is 4% of banking activity REA (DKK 148bn end of March 2023) which mirrors the combined buffer requirement (“CBR”) excl. of the CCyB and can be calculated as DKK 5.9bn at the end of March 2023.

Funding plans & issuance of capital instruments
Overall issuance of capital instruments (AT1 and Tier 2) is driven by regulatory requirements. Ongoing capital management aims to keep the outstanding amount of such instruments at a fixed percentage of REA to optimize capital structure. Timing of issuance will naturally depend on the spread requirement (market price) of capital instruments compared with cost of capital (CET1).
Senior issuance is driven primarily by MREL requirements but might also be influenced by NSFR.
Based on the expected REA increase from organic growth and changed regulation, Jyske Bank anticipates a requirement for MREL-eligible debt instruments in an amount of DKK 25bn - 27bn (EUR 3.4-3.6bn) by end of 2023:
- ~DKK 6bn (EUR 0.8bn) PS debt
- ~ DKK 19-21bn (EUR 2.6-2.8bn) of NPS debt
The outstanding MREL eligible instruments reflect the statutory requirements as well as an internal buffer to the statutory requirements.
Jyske Bank’s recurring funding plan will include an annual senior
benchmark bond (EUR 500m) as one of the most important elements.
Dependent on market pricing issuance of a sub benchmark AT1 is likely in (2H) 2023.
