1 min readSwitched off by EBA on 17 March 2026EBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Loans and advances, non-financial corporations must equal a calculation over four columns (EBA rule v6058_m)

A check in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on templates F 05.01, breakdown of non-trading loans and advances by product: loans and advances other than held for trading, trading or held for sale assets by product and F 20.04, geographical breakdown of assets by residence of the counterparty.

EBA switched this rule off for filings submitted from 17 March 2026, in a quarterly update to its list of validation rules. It no longer applies, so a failure here does not count, and Line4 Check does not run it.

The rule in plain words

Loans and advances, non-financial corporations must equal these four worked out:

  • Non-financial corporations, gross carrying amount
  • Minus non-financial corporations, gross carrying amount held for trading or trading
  • Non-financial corporations, accumulated impairment
  • Non-financial corporations, accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk on non-performing exposures

{F_05.01,r0080,c0050,} = sum({F_20.04,r0190,c0010,}) - sum({F_20.04,r0190,c0011,}) + sum({F_20.04,r0190,c0031,}) + sum({F_20.04,r0190,c0040,})

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