  "text": "1. The valuations for the purpose referred to in point (a) of Article 36(4) of Directive 2014/59/EU shall be based on fair and realistic assumptions and shall seek to ensure that losses under the appropriate scenario are fully recognised. Where such valuation is available, it shall inform the determination of the competent authority or of the resolution authority as appropriate, that an institution is ‘failing or likely to fail’ as referred to in Article 32(1)(a) of Directive 2014/59/EU. Based on existing supervisory guidance or other generally recognised sources setting out criteria conducive to the fair and realistic measurement of different types of assets and liabilities, the valuer may challenge the assumptions, data, methodologies and judgements on which the entity based its valuations for financial reporting obligations or for the calculation of regulatory capital and capital requirements and disregard them for the purposes of the valuation.\n2. The valuer shall determine the most appropriate valuation methodologies which may rely on the entity's internal models where the valuer deems it appropriate taking into account the nature of the entity's risk management framework and the quality of data and information available.\n3. The valuations shall be consistent with the applicable accounting and prudential regulatory framework.",
