Line4

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

The sum of two columns must equal 1 (row 0070, EBA rule v12534_m)

A check in the gender pay gap, credit institutions return (REM gender pay gap), on template R 06.00.b, information on the gender pay gap (II).

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

All female staff in percent of all staff plus all male identified staff in percent based on all identified staff must equal 1.

All the values are in the total staff or identified staff row (0070) of R 06.00.b.

EBA writes it out five times. These words are for the first; the others are the same rule on other cells.

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

{R_06.00.b,r0070,c0030,} + {R_06.00.b,r0070,c0040,} = 1

And 4 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

Every REM gender pay gap rule, by template

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