I suspect that it is too much to hope for a characterization. But it is
sufficient that either C or C^op be exact. For C to be exact, it is
required that it have finite limits, coequalizers of equivalence
relations, that regular epis be stable under pullback and that every
equivalence relation is the kernel pair of its coequalizer.
