1 min readSwitched off by EBAEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Other retail must equal SME plus non-SME other retail (EBA rule v5821_h)

A check in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 09.02, geographical breakdown of exposures by residence of the obligor (IRB exposures).

EBA switched this rule off in its 4.2 severity package (January 2026), so it does not run on reporting framework 4.2 filings. EBA's list of validation rules of 12 October 2026 still has it switched off. Line4 Check does not run it either.

The rule in plain words

Other retail must equal SME plus non-SME other retail.

All the values are in the write-offs column (0060) of C 09.02.

EBA writes it out 14 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_09.02,r0110,c0060,} = {C_09.02,r0120,c0060,} + {C_09.02,r0130,c0060,}

And 13 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

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