Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss must equal debt securities plus loans and advances.

All the values are in the amounts derecognised for capital purposes column (0110) of F 15.00.a.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

Word for word as the report shows it when the rule fails.

Amounts derecognised for capital purposes: Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss = Debt securities + Loans and advances

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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 F 15.00 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.

What the rule then expects

Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss must then be 2,000.

2,000Passes
2,100Fails

A file that reports 2,000 passes. One that reports 2,100 fails, by 100.

The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
