Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss must equal debt securities issued (EBA rule v0922_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on template F 14.00, fair value hierarchy: financial instruments at fair value.

The rule in plain words

Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss must equal debt securities issued.

All the values are in the level 1 column (0060) of F 14.00.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Level 1: Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss = Debt securities issued

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 F 14.00 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.

Illustrative values
Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss1,200
What the rule then expects

Debt securities issued must then be 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,300Fails

A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.

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