Asset transfers | 24 Asset transfers This note provides an overview of asset transfers which do not qualify for derecognition and therefore continue to be recognised in NatWest Group’s balance sheet. For accounting policy information see Accounting policies note 3.9. ​ Transfers that do not qualify for derecognition NatWest Group enters into securities repurchase, lending and total return transactions in accordance with normal market practice which includes the provision of additional collateral if necessary. Under standard terms in the UK and US markets, the recipient has an unrestricted right to sell or repledge collateral, subject to returning equivalent securities on settlement of the transaction. Securities sold under repurchase transactions and transactions with the substance of securities repurchase agreements are not derecognised if NatWest Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. The fair value (and carrying value) of securities transferred under such transactions included on the balance sheet, are set out below. All of these securities could be sold or repledged by the holder. ​
