1 min readSwitched off by EBAEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Fixed overhead requirement cannot be less than 0.25 times annual fixed overheads of the previous year after distribution of profits (EBA rule v11136_m)

A check in the investment firms, class 2 return (IFR class 2), on template I 03.00, fixed overheads requirements calculation.

EBA switched this rule off in its 4.2 severity package (January 2026), so it does not run on reporting framework 4.2 filings. EBA's list of validation rules of 12 October 2026 still has it switched off. Line4 Check does not run it either.

The rule in plain words

Fixed overhead requirement cannot be less than 0.25 times annual fixed overheads of the previous year after distribution of profits.

All the values are in the amount column (0010) of I 03.00.
