Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Exposure value cannot be less than exposure value arising from counterparty credit risk.

EBA checks it for three rows: exposures secured by mortgages on commercial immovable property, exposures secured by mortgages on residential immovable property, and acquisition, development and construction (ADC). That makes three checks. A failure names the one that failed.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

The first of its checks, word for word as the report shows it when it fails. The others read the same, with their own column, row or sheet.

Exposures secured by mortgages on commercial immovable property, Exposure value >= Exposures secured by mortgages on commercial immovable property, Of which: Arising from Counterparty Credit Risk

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
  3. 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 07.00 as reported.
  5. 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

The cells it reads

Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements - Memorandum items - secured on property (C 07.00.c)

Rows

  • 0290Exposures secured by mortgages on commercial immovable property

  • 0330Acquisition, development and construction (ADC)

Columns

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Exposure value1,200
What the rule then expects

Exposure value arising from counterparty credit risk can then be at most 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,300Fails

A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.

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

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

{C_07.00.c,r0290,c0200,} >= {C_07.00.c,r0290,c0210,}

The next two:

{C_07.00.c,r0310,c0200,} >= {C_07.00.c,r0310,c0210,}{C_07.00.c,r0330,c0200,} >= {C_07.00.c,r0330,c0210,}

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