1 min readSwitched off by EBA on 10 June 2026EBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Expected loss amount cannot be more than original exposure pre conversion factors (EBA rule v4757_m)

A check in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 08.01.a, credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: IRB approach to capital requirements - TOTAL.

EBA switched this rule off for filings submitted from 10 June 2026, in a quarterly update to its list of validation rules. It no longer applies, so a failure here does not count, and Line4 Check does not run it.

The rule in plain words

Expected loss amount cannot be more than original exposure pre conversion factors.

All the values are in the off balance sheet items subject to credit risk row (0030) of C 08.01.a.

EBA writes it out eight times. These words are for the first; the others are the same rule on other cells.

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

{C_08.01.a,r0030,c0280,} <= {C_08.01.a,r0030,c0020,}

And 7 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

Every COREP own funds rule, by template

Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision.
