1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Risk weighted exposure amounts for credit, counterparty credit and dilution risks and free deliveries must equal the sum of its four parts (EBA rule v0205_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 02.00.a, capital adequacy - risk exposure amounts.

The rule in plain words

Risk weighted exposure amounts for credit, counterparty credit and dilution risks and free deliveries must equal these four added up:

  • Standardised approach (SA)
  • Internal ratings based approach(IRB)
  • Risk exposure amount for contributions to the default fund of a CCP
  • Securitisation positions

All the values are in the TREA column (0010) of C 02.00.a.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

TREA: RISK WEIGHTED EXPOSURE AMOUNTS FOR CREDIT, COUNTERPARTY CREDIT AND DILUTION RISKS AND FREE DELIVERIES = Standardised Approach (SA) + Internal ratings based Approach(IRB) + Risk exposure amount for contributions to the default fund of a CCP + Securitisation positions

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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 02.00 as reported.
  6. 06This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Standardised approach (SA)1,200
Internal ratings based approach(IRB)800
Risk exposure amount for contributions to the default fund of a CCP450
Securitisation positions300
Together2,750
What the rule then expects

Risk weighted exposure amounts for credit, counterparty credit and dilution risks and free deliveries must then be 2,750.

2,750Passes
2,850Fails

A file that reports 2,750 passes. One that reports 2,850 fails, by 100.

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

Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision.
