1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Minority interests and equivalents must equal the sum of its two parts (EBA rule v0253_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 05.01, capital adequacy - transitional provisions: Summary.

The rule in plain words

Minority interests and equivalents must equal capital instruments and items that do not qualify as minority interests plus transitional recognition in consolidated own funds of minority interests.

All the values are in the adjustments to CET1 column (0010) of C 05.01.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Adjustments to CET1: MINORITY INTERESTS AND EQUIVALENTS = Capital instruments and items that do not qualify as minority interests + Transitional recognition in consolidated own funds of minority interests

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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 05.01 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
Capital instruments and items that do not qualify as minority interests1,200
Transitional recognition in consolidated own funds of minority interests800
Together2,000
What the rule then expects

Minority interests and equivalents 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.
