Other non-trading non-derivative financial assets: equity instruments in F 15.00.a cannot be more than equity instruments in F 01.01 (EBA rule v1725_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on templates F 01.01, balance sheet statement: assets and F 15.00.a, derecognition and financial liabilities associated with transferred financial assets: equity instruments, debt securities, loans and advances.

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

For other non-trading non-derivative financial assets: equity instruments in F 15.00.a cannot be more than equity instruments in F 01.01.

All the values are in the carrying amount column (0010).

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

F_15.00.A: Equity instruments, Carrying amount <= F_01.01: Equity instruments

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the templates below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is bigger 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 F 15.00 and F 01.01 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.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Equity instruments in F 15.00.a1,200
What the rule then expects

Equity instruments in F 01.01 must then be at least 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,100Fails

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

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