Macquarie notes APRA reduction of liquidity add-on requirements for Macquarie Bank

Macquarie Group (Macquarie) notes the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority’s (APRA) announcement today that APRA has reduced liquidity add-on requirements imposed on Macquarie Bank Limited (MBL) in 2021 and 2022. APRA has partially removed an add-on to the net cash outflow component of MBL’s Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), reducing the add-on from 25 per cent to 15 per cent. APRA has also removed MBL’s Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) add-on of 1 per cent that was applied to the available stable funding component of the NSFR calculation, and had been effective from 2021. There has been no change to the operational capital overlay of $500 million which MBL was required by APRA to hold from 2021. These changes are effective 5 February, 2026.
