Debt securities: the sum of three rows must equal general governments, non-performing gross carrying amount (all sheets added up) (EBA rule v5282_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on templates F 18.00.a, information on performing and non-performing exposures (I) and F 20.04, geographical breakdown of assets by residence of the counterparty.

The rule in plain words

For general governments: these three added up must equal non-performing gross carrying amount (all sheets added up):

  • Non-performing (row 0213)
  • Non-performing (row 0183)
  • Non-performing (row 0030)
How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

F_18.00.A: Debt securities, general governments, Non-performing (row 0213) + F_18.00.A: Debt securities, general governments, Non-performing (row 0183) + F_18.00.A: Debt securities, general governments, Non-performing (row 0030) = F_20.04: General governments, Of which: non-performing (all sheets added up)

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the templates below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Work out both sides from your file, as the rule in plain words sets out, and compare them.
  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 F 18.00 and F 20.04 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.
