Value according to Article 9 must equal amount or market value times applicable weight (C 72.00.a, EBA rule v4479_m)

A warning in the liquidity coverage ratio return (LCR), on template C 72.00.a, liquidity coverage , liquid assets, total (DA).

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Value according to Article 9 must equal amount or market value times applicable weight.

EBA checks it for 40 rows, from coins and banknotes (0040) to central institutions: Level 2B assets which are considered liquid assets for the depositing credit institution (0470). 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.

High quality covered bonds (RW35%), Value according to Article 9 = High quality covered bonds (RW35%), Amount/Market value × High quality covered bonds (RW35%), Applicable weight

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.

  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 72.00 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.

EBA's formula, as written out for the first of its checks. Cells are written as {template, row, column, sheet}.

{C_72.00.a,r0340,c0040,} = {C_72.00.a,r0340,c0010,} * {C_72.00.a,r0340,c0030,}

The next five:

{C_72.00.a,r0370,c0040,} = {C_72.00.a,r0370,c0010,} * {C_72.00.a,r0370,c0030,}{C_72.00.a,r0100,c0040,} = {C_72.00.a,r0100,c0010,} * {C_72.00.a,r0100,c0030,}{C_72.00.a,r0140,c0040,} = {C_72.00.a,r0140,c0010,} * {C_72.00.a,r0140,c0030,}{C_72.00.a,r0120,c0040,} = {C_72.00.a,r0120,c0010,} * {C_72.00.a,r0120,c0030,}{C_72.00.a,r0260,c0040,} = {C_72.00.a,r0260,c0010,} * {C_72.00.a,r0260,c0030,}
