The rule in plain words
Total long-term unsecured debt securities issued must equal these six added up:
- Additional Tier 1 instruments
- Tier 2 instruments
- Subordinated instruments (not already T1 or T2)
- Senior non-preferred
- Senior unsecured (HoldCo)
- Other long-term unsecured instruments
EBA checks it for four columns: actual current position, planned Year 1 Position, planned Year 2 Position and planned Year 3 Position. That makes four 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.
Planned Year 3 Position: Total long-term unsecured debt securities issued = Additional Tier 1 instruments + Tier 2 instruments + Subordinated instruments (not already T1 or T2) + Senior non-preferred + Senior unsecured (HoldCo) + Other long-term unsecured instruments
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Add up the parts in your file and compare the result with the total.
- 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.
- 04EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark P 01.02 as reported.
- 06This 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.
Total long-term unsecured debt securities issued must then be 3,000.
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.
