1 min readBlockingEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Financial guarantees received must equal the sum of its six parts (EBA rule v0840_m)

A blocking check in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on template F 09.02, loan commitments, financial guarantees and other commitments received.

The rule in plain words

Financial guarantees received must equal these six added up:

  • Central banks
  • General governments
  • Credit institutions
  • Other financial corporations
  • Non-financial corporations
  • Households

All the values are in the maximum amount of the guarantee that can be considered column (0010) of F 09.02.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Maximum amount of the guarantee that can be considered: Financial guarantees received = Central banks + General governments + Credit institutions + Other financial corporations + Non-financial corporations + Households

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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 F 09.02 as reported.
  6. 06This is a blocking check. A filing that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

What the rule then expects

Financial guarantees received must then be 3,000.

3,000Passes
3,100Fails

A file that reports 3,000 passes. One that reports 3,100 fails, by 100.

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