The rule in plain words
Value / percentage cannot be negative.
EBA checks it for 30 rows, from liquidity buffer (0010) to PILLAR 2 REQUIREMENT as set out in Article 105 of the CRD (0380). That makes 30 checks. A failure names the one that failed.
How the Line4 Check report words itShowHide
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.
L2B according to Article 9: unadjusted >= 0
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 C 76.00 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.
L2B according to Article 9: unadjusted must then be at least 0.
A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports -100 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.

{C_76.00.a,r0220,c0010,} >= 0The next five:
{C_76.00.a,r0251,c0010,} >= 0{C_76.00.a,r0030,c0010,} >= 0{C_76.00.a,r0320,c0010,} >= 0{C_76.00.a,r0010,c0010,} >= 0{C_76.00.a,r0310,c0010,} >= 0And 24 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.
Other rules on C 76.00.a
- Reduction for inflows subject to 75% cap must equal the smaller of two values (v10191_m)Warning
- Reduction for inflows subject to 90% cap must equal the smaller of two values (v10190_m)Warning
- Reduction for fully Exempt inflows must equal the smaller of two values (v10189_m)Warning
- Liquidity buffer must equal a calculation over five terms (C 76.00.b, v10188_m)Warning
- Excess liquid asset amount must equal a calculation over five terms (v10187_m)Warning
- Liquidity coverage ratio must be at least 1 (v7596_m)Warning
- Net liquidity outflow must equal a calculation over four rows (C 76.00.b, v4575_m)Warning
- L2B "adjusted amount" must equal L2B according to Article 9: unadjusted minus L2B collateral 30 day outflows plus L2B collateral 30 day inflows (v4567_m)Warning
Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision.
