The rule in plain words
The absolute value of non-financial corporations cannot be less than the absolute value of small and medium-sized Enterprises.
EBA checks it for two columns: collateral received on non-performing exposures and collateral received on performing exposures. That makes two checks. A failure names the one that failed.

What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 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.
- 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 18.00 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.
