An institution that applies the treatment laid down in paragraph 1 may cease to apply that treatment at any point in time, provided that it has notified its competent authority. An institution that ceases to apply that treatment shall not apply it again at a later date.
An institution that chooses to use the multiplier referred to in paragraph 1 shall calibrate such multiplier every three months as the ratio between its own funds requirements for market risk calculated by applying Part Three, Title IV, of this Regulation in the version in force on 8 July 2024 and its own funds requirements for market risk calculated by applying this Regulation in the version in force on 9 July 2024, taking into account the transitional treatments laid down in Articles 495i to 495t.
An institution that applies the multiplier laid down in paragraph 1 shall continue to also report information on the own funds requirements for market risk calculated by applying Part Three, Title IV, of this Regulation in the version in force on 8 July 2024.
An institution that applies the multiplier laid down in paragraph 1 shall disclose that it chooses to apply the multiplier.

For the determination of its own funds requirements for market risk calculated by applying this Regulation in the version in force on 9 July 2024 in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 5, an institution shall use the requirements for inclusion in the trading book laid down in Article 104 of this Regulation in the version in force on 8 July 2024.
