Total must equal the sum of its ten parts (C 35.01, EBA rule v09645_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 35.01, nPE loss coverage: calculation of deductions for non-performing exposures (NPE lc1).

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Total must equal these ten added up:

  • >9 years
  • >2 years <=3 years
  • >1 year <=2 years
  • >4 years <=5 years
  • >3 years <=4 years
  • >5 years <=6 years
  • >6 years <=7 years
  • >8 years <=9 years
  • >7 years <=8 years
  • <=1 year

EBA checks it for ten rows, from exposure value (0050) to amounts written-off by the institution since the exposure was classified as non-performing (0150). That makes ten checks. A failure names the one that failed.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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, Total = Exposure value, >9 years + Exposure value, >2 years <=3 years + Exposure value, >1 year <=2 years + Exposure value, >4 years <=5 years + Exposure value, >3 years <=4 years + Exposure value, >5 years <=6 years + Exposure value, >6 years <=7 years + Exposure value, >8 years <=9 years + Exposure value, >7 years <=8 years + Exposure value, <=1 year

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.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 C 35.01 as reported.
  6. 06This 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

EBA's formula, as written out for the first of its checks. Cells are written as {template, row, column, sheet}.
