153. Granting new conditions such as a new interest rate more favourable than the rate borrowers …

Granting new conditions such as a new interest rate more favourable than the rate borrowers with a similar risk profile could obtain may be considered an indication of such a concession when the credit institution determines that the reason for the new rate is the financial difficulties of the borrower. The provision of more favourable new conditions than those practised by the market should not be considered a prerequisite for the identification of concessions and therefore forbearance. In line with Annex V to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 680/2014, when a borrower is in financial difficulties, a change in conditions in line with what other borrowers with a similar risk profile could get from the credit institution should qualify as a concession, including when borrowers are included in public forbearance schemes that are offered by credit institutions.
