1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Loans and advances cannot be less than the sum of two rows (F 07.02, EBA rule v5382_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on template F 07.02, financial assets subject to impairment that are past due under national GAAP.

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Loans and advances cannot be less than loans collateralized by immovable property plus other collateralized loans.

EBA checks it for six columns: ≤ 30 days (0010), > 30 days ≤ 90 days (0020), > 90 days (0030), ≤ 30 days (0040), > 30 days ≤ 90 days (0050) and > 90 days (0060). That makes six 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.

> 30 days ≤ 90 days: Loans and advances >= of which: Loans collateralized by immovable property + of which: other collateralized loans

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
  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 07.02 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.

The cells it reads

Financial assets subject to impairment that are past due under national GAAP (F 07.02)

Rows

  • 0120Loans and advances
  • 0270of which: Loans collateralized by immovable property
  • 0280of which: other collateralized loans

Columns

  • 0010≤ 30 days
  • 0020> 30 days ≤ 90 days
  • 0030> 90 days
  • 0040≤ 30 days
  • 0050> 30 days ≤ 90 days
  • 0060> 90 days

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Loans collateralized by immovable property1,200
other collateralized loans800
Together2,000
What the rule then expects

Loans and advances must then be at least 2,000.

2,000Passes
1,900Fails

A file that reports 2,000 passes. One that reports 1,900 fails, by 100.

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

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