  • Allied Irish Banks, P.L.C., New York Branch – Tailored Resolution Plan
    Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c., New York Branch – Tailored Resolution Plan Executive summary (1) Describe the key elements of the covered company’s strategic plan for rapid and orderly resolution in the event of material financial distress at or failure of the covered company. Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c. (AIB) is submitting this plan as part of the third group of filers, generally those subject to the rule with less than $100 billion in total U.S. non-bank assets. AIB is currently 99.8% owned by the Irish Government and has been designated as one of Ireland’s two pillar banks. Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c. (AIB) does not maintain any non-bank material entities or core business lines in the U.S. The only active presence AIB currently has in the U.S. is its New York branch, which is licensed by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYSDFS) and represents approximately 0.53% of AIB’s global balance sheet. As such, AIB New York is not an operation whose discontinuance or disorderly wind-down would have a material impact on or pose a threat to the financial stability of the U.S. As a result of the recent worldwide financial crisis and pursuant to Ireland’s EU/ECB/IMF Troika bail-out program, AIB was directed to identify and de-leverage non-core assets from its balance sheet. As part of this process, the Not- for-Profit credit business in AIB’s New York branch was deemed to be non-core and the branch has consequently engaged in an active reduction of its NY assets resulting in the orderly reduction of the branch’s business to its current levels: Balance Sheet decreased by 97% Loans decreased by 85% Securities issued or guaranteed by U.S.
