1 min readBlockingEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Overall capital requirement (OCR) ratio cannot be less than total SREP capital requirement (TSCR) ratio (EBA rule v6436_m)

A blocking check in the resolution planning: organisation and liabilities return (RESOL1), on template Z 03.01, own funds requirements - credit institutions (LIAB 2).

The rule in plain words

Overall capital requirement (OCR) ratio cannot be less than total SREP capital requirement (TSCR) ratio.

All the values are in the amount or percentage column (0010) of Z 03.01.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Overall capital requirement (OCR) ratio >= Total SREP Capital Requirement (TSCR) ratio

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 Z 03.01 as reported.
  5. 05This 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.

Illustrative values
Overall capital requirement (OCR) ratio1,200
What the rule then expects

Total SREP capital requirement (TSCR) ratio can then be at most 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,300Fails

A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 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.
