Eligible liabilities items before adjustments must equal eligible liabilities (EBA rule v10812_m)

A check in the loss-absorbing capacity return (MREL and TLAC), on templates M 02.00.a, mREL and TLAC capacity and composition (resolution groups / entities) (TLAC1) (I) and M 04.00, funding structure of eligible liabilities (LIAB MREL).

EBA switched this rule off for filings submitted from 10 June 2026, in a quarterly update to its list of validation rules. It no longer applies, so a failure here does not count, and Line4 Check does not run it.

The rule in plain words

Eligible liabilities items before adjustments must equal eligible liabilities.

All the values are in the minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) column (0010).
