The rule in plain words
None of the values it checks in details on exposures in low default portfolios can be negative.
EBA checks it for five columns: exposure value, annualised originated PD, annualised PD at reporting date, quantitative Stage 2 trigger (in annualised PD) and low credit risk exemption threshold (if applicable). That makes five 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.
Exposure value: Exposure value >= 0
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Look for a value with the wrong sign in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
- 03EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 113.00 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.
The cells it reads
Details on exposures in low default portfolios by counterparty by facility (C 113.00)
Columns

- 0500Quantitative Stage 2 trigger (in annualised PD)
- 0550Low Credit Risk exemption threshold (if applicable)
A worked example
The first of its checks, with simple numbers.
Exposure value must then be at least 0.
A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports -100 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.
