  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 05.01 and C 05.02 as reported.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Instruments not constituting state aid, adjustments to CET11,200
What the rule then expects

Instruments that qualified for Article 57, point (a) of Directive 2006/48/EC, total grandfathered amount must then be 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,300Fails

A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.

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