The GIRR_Major_Currency.csv file lists the major currencies in . In the EU, the same seven currencies are set by Annex I of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/2058, adopted under CRR Article 325bd(7)(b). A parameter set configures its own list by shipping its own GIRR_Major_Currency*.csv rows under its ParameterSet. The ordinary ParameterSet fallback applies: the closest ancestor holding rows on the as-of date wins. A declared list replaces the inherited one. It must therefore restate every currency it keeps.
Under EU-DA, the shipped GIRR_Major_Currency_EU-DA.csv replaces the base list of GIRR_Major_Currency.csv. A currency added to the base file is silently dropped unless the EU-DA file restates it. Further currencies can be added whenever a deployment needs them, such as the domestic reporting currency of the institution. List them in the file of the parameter set concerned.
The domestic (reporting) currency of the institution is not added implicitly. That currency receives the reduced risk weight only when the parameter set lists it.

What is the file format?

The columns are read by position, in the order of the following table, not by header name. The column order is therefore fixed while the header text is free. The parameter set of a row comes from the ParameterSet column, never from the file name or the directory. Naming a file GIRR_Major_Currency_EU-DA.csv under an EU-DA directory is a convention only.

​
What are the file values?

The base file is sample-data/configuration/GIRR_Major_Currency.csv. The EU-DA file is sample-data/configuration/EU-DA/GIRR_Major_Currency_EU-DA.csv. It restates the seven base currencies and adds DKK as an example. For the regulation behind those rows, see EU-DA support.
