The rule in plain words
Total cannot be less than these three added up:
- Mapped to 2 risk categories
- Mapped to 3 risk categories
- Mapped to more than 3 risk categories
EBA checks it for three columns: number of transactions, notional amounts and current market value (CMV), positive. And on two sheets: SA-CCR and simplified SA-CCR. That makes six 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.
Notional amounts: Total, SA-CCR >= Of which: mapped to 2 risk categories, SA-CCR + Of which: mapped to 3 risk categories, SA-CCR + Of which: mapped to more than 3 risk categories, SA-CCR
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
- 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 34.03 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
CCR exposures treated with standardised approaches: SA-CCR or simplified SA-CCR (CCR 3) (C 34.03)

A worked example
The first of its checks, with simple numbers.
Total must then be at least 2,450.
A file that reports 2,450 passes. One that reports 2,350 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
