1 min readSwitched off by EBA on 17 March 2026EBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Notional amount cannot be less than the sum of eight columns (J 06.00.b, EBA rule v22321_m)

A check in the interest rate risk in the banking book return (IRRBB), on template J 06.00.b, repricing cash flows (simplified for 'other' institutions) (II).

EBA switched this rule off for filings submitted from 17 March 2026, in a quarterly update to its list of validation rules. It no longer applies, so a failure here does not count, and Line4 Check does not run it.

The rule in plain words

Notional amount cannot be less than these eight added up:

  • Overnight
  • Greater than overnight up to 1 month
  • Greater than 1 month up to 3 months
  • Greater than 3 months up to 6 months
  • Greater than 6 months up to 9 months
  • Greater than 9 months up to 12 months
  • Greater than 12 months up to 1.5 years
  • Greater than 1.5 years up to 2 years

All the values are in the NMDs: wholesale financial row (0390) of J 06.00.b.

EBA writes it out 44 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}.

{J_06.00.b,r0390,c0260,} >= {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0320,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0330,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0340,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0350,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0360,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0370,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0380,} + {J_06.00.b,r0390,c0390,}

And 43 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

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