A blocking check in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 04.00, capital adequacy - Memorandum items.

The rule in plain words

Deferred tax liabilities deductible from deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability must equal deductible deferred tax liabilities associated with deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability and do not arise from temporary di plus deductible deferred tax liabilities associated with deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability and arise from temporary differenc.

All the values are in the amount column (0010) of C 04.00.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

Word for word as the report shows it when the rule fails.

Deferred tax liabilities deductible from deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability = Deductible deferred tax liabilities associated with deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability and do not arise from temporary di + Deductible deferred tax liabilities associated with deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability and arise from temporary differenc

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Add up the parts in your file and compare the result with the total.
  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.
  4. 04EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 04.00 as reported.
  6. 06This is a blocking check. A filing that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

What the rule then expects

Deferred tax liabilities deductible from deferred tax assets that rely on future profitability must then be 2,000.

2,000Passes
2,100Fails

A file that reports 2,000 passes. One that reports 2,100 fails, by 100.

The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
