1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Exposure weighted average PD cannot be more than 1 (C 08.03, EBA rule v09761_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 08.03, credit risk and free deliveries: IRB approach to capital requirements: breakdown by PD ranges (CR IRB 3).

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Exposure weighted average PD (%) cannot be more than 1.

EBA checks it for 16 rows, from to <0.15 (0010) to to <100 (0160). That makes 16 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 weighted average PD (%): 2.5 to <10 <= 1

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Work out both sides from your file, as the rule in plain words sets out, and compare them.
  3. 03EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 08.03 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.

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

{C_08.03,r0100,c0050,} <= 1

The next five:

{C_08.03,r0050,c0050,} <= 1{C_08.03,r0090,c0050,} <= 1{C_08.03,r0110,c0050,} <= 1{C_08.03,r0030,c0050,} <= 1{C_08.03,r0060,c0050,} <= 1

And 10 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision.
