The rule in plain words
None of the values it checks in mitigating actions can be negative.
EBA checks it for two columns: specialised lending (0040) and specialised lending (0140). And for 26 rows, from loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments not HfT eligible for GAR calculation (0010) to total GAR assets (0320). That makes 52 checks. A failure names the one that failed.

What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Look for a value with the wrong sign in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
- 03EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark D 07.00 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

A worked example
The first of its checks, with simple numbers.
Loans and advances, debt securities and equity instruments not HfT eligible for GAR calculation, specialised lending must then be at least 0.
A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports -100 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.
