Items that may be reclassified to profit and loss must equal the sum of its seven parts (EBA rule v5023_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on template F 01.03, balance sheet statement: equity.

The rule in plain words

Items that may be reclassified to profit and loss must equal these seven added up:

  • Hedges of net investments in foreign operations [effective portion]
  • Foreign currency translation
  • Hedging derivatives. cash flow hedges reserve (effective portion)
  • Fair value changes of debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
  • Hedging instruments [not designated elements]
  • Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale
  • Share of other recognised income and expense of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates

All the values are in the carrying amount column (0010) of F 01.03.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Items that may be reclassified to profit and loss = Hedges of net investments in foreign operations [effective portion] + Foreign currency translation + Hedging derivatives. Cash flow hedges reserve (effective portion) + Fair value changes of debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income + Hedging instruments [not designated elements] + Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale + Share of other recognised income and expense of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Add up the parts in your file and compare the result with the total.
  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.
  4. 04EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 01.03 as reported.
  6. 06This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

What the rule then expects

Items that may be reclassified to profit and loss must then be 3,060.

3,060Passes
3,160Fails

A file that reports 3,060 passes. One that reports 3,160 fails, by 100.

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