The rule in plain words
For assets without significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (Stage 1): loans and advances cannot be less than credit for consumption plus lending for house purchase.
EBA checks it for twelve columns, from ≤ 30 days (0010) to > 90 days (0120). That makes twelve checks. A failure names the one that failed.
How the Line4 Check report words itShowHide
The first of its checks, word for word as the report shows it when it fails. The others read the same, with their own column, row or sheet.
> 30 days ≤ 90 days: Loans and advances >= of which: credit for consumption + of which: lending for house purchase
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
- 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 07.01 as reported.
- 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.
Loans and advances must then be at least 2,000.
A file that reports 2,000 passes. One that reports 1,900 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
