1 min readSwitched off by EBA on 17 March 2026EBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Total exposures must equal the sum of its five parts (C 20.00, EBA rule v0611_m)

A check in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 20.00, market risk: standardised approach for specific risk in the correlation trading portfolio.

EBA switched this rule off for filings submitted from 17 March 2026, in a quarterly update to its list of validation rules. It no longer applies, so a failure here does not count, and Line4 Check does not run it.

The rule in plain words

Total exposures must equal these five added up:

  • Originator: total exposures
  • Investor: total exposures
  • Sponsor: total exposures
  • N-th to default credit derivatives
  • Other CTP positions

All the values are in the short column (0060) of C 20.00.

EBA writes it out 38 times. These words are for the first; the others are the same rule on other cells.

EBA's formula, as written out for the first of its checks. Cells are written as {template, row, column, sheet}.

{C_20.00,r0010,c0060,} = {C_20.00,r0020,c0060,} + {C_20.00,r0050,c0060,} + {C_20.00,r0080,c0060,} + {C_20.00,r0110,c0060,} + {C_20.00,r0120,c0060,}

And 37 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

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