Non-trading non-derivative financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss must equal the sum of its two parts (F 04.07, EBA rule v5038_m)

A blocking check in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on template F 04.07, breakdown of financial assets by instrument and by counterparty sector: non-trading non-derivative financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The rule in plain words

Non-trading non-derivative financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss must equal debt securities plus loans and advances.

All the values are in the accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk on non-performing exposures column (0021) of F 04.07.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk on non-performing exposures: Non-trading non-derivative financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss = Debt securities + Loans and advances

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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 04.07 as reported.
  6. 06This is a blocking check. A filing that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Loans and advances800
Together2,000
What the rule then expects

Non-trading non-derivative financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss must then be 2,000.

2,000Passes
2,100Fails

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

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