2 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Exposure value cannot be less than exposure value arising from counterparty credit risk (C 10.00, EBA rule v23059_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 10.00, credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: IRB exposures subject to output floor.

The rule in plain words

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

EBA checks it for 40 rows, from total exposures (0010) to SA exposures subject to counterparty credit risk under the IMM (0270). That makes 40 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.

Central governments or central banks, EXPOSURE VALUE >= Central governments or central banks, 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 10.00 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.

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.
