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

IRB approaches when own estimates of LGD and/or conversion factors are used must equal these ten added up:

  • Central governments and central banks
  • Regional governments or local authorities
  • Public sector entities
  • Corporates - specialised lending
  • Corporates - Purchased receivables
  • Corporates - other
  • Retail - secured by residential real estate
  • Retail - qualifying revolving
  • Retail - Purchased receivables
  • Retail - other

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: IRB approaches when own estimates of LGD and/or Conversion Factors are used = Central governments and central banks + Regional governments or local authorities + Public sector entities + Corporates - Specialised Lending + Corporates - Purchased receivables + Corporates - Other + Retail - Secured by residential real estate + Retail - Qualifying revolving + Retail - Purchased receivables + Retail - Other

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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.
