1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

The sum of two columns cannot be more than loans collateralised with immovable property, carrying amount of encumbered assets (EBA rule v2960_m)

A warning in the asset encumbrance return (AE), on templates F 32.01, asset encumbrance: encumbrance overview - assets and F 36.01.c, asset encumbrance: Advance template for assets of the reporting institution (c).

The rule in plain words

Total encumbered assets, loans collateralised with immovable property, households plus total encumbered assets, loans collateralised with immovable property, non financial corporations cannot be more than loans collateralised with immovable property, carrying amount of encumbered assets.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

F_36.01.C: Total encumbered assets, Households, of which: loans collateralised with Immovable Property + F_36.01.C: Total encumbered assets, Non financial Corporations, of which: loans collateralised with Immovable Property <= F_32.01: Of which: loans collateralised with immovable property, Carrying amount of encumbered assets

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 32.01 and F 36.01 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
Total encumbered assets, loans collateralised with immovable property, households1,200
Total encumbered assets, loans collateralised with immovable property, non financial corporations800
Together2,000
What the rule then expects

Loans collateralised with immovable property, carrying amount of encumbered assets must then be at least 2,000.

2,000Passes
1,900Fails

A file that reports 2,000 passes. One that reports 1,900 fails, by 100.

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