12.5 times own funds requirements must equal total risk exposure amount (C 24.00, EBA rule v0636_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 24.00, market risk: internal models - total.

The rule in plain words

12.5 times own funds requirements must equal total risk exposure amount.

All the values are in the total positions row (0010) of C 24.00.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

12.5 × TOTAL POSITIONS, Own funds requirements = TOTAL POSITIONS, Total risk exposure amount

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02The two values must be the same. Find which of the two is right, and correct the other one.
  3. 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 24.00 as reported.
  5. 05This 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.

Own funds requirements (counted × 12.5)1,200
What the rule then expects

Total risk exposure amount must then be 15,000.

15,000Passes
15,100Fails

A file that reports 15,000 passes. One that reports 15,100 fails, by 100.

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