The rule in plain words
None of the values it checks in derivatives: hedge accounting can be negative.
EBA checks it for two columns: sold and derivatives carried at amortised cost / LOCOM. And for 23 rows, from interest rate (0010) to portfolio cash flow hedges of interest rate risk (0236). That makes 46 checks. A failure names the one that failed.

Of which: sold: Credit spread option >= 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 F 11.02 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.
Credit spread option, sold must then be at least 0.
A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports -100 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.
