1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Total liabilities and own funds including derivative liabilities must equal the sum of its three parts (EBA rule v7500_m)

A warning in the resolution planning: organisation and liabilities return (RESOL1), on template Z 02.00.a, liability structure (LIAB).

The rule in plain words

Total liabilities and own funds including derivative liabilities must equal these three added up:

  • Liabilities excluded from bail-in
  • Liabilities not excluded from bail-in
  • Own funds

All the values are in the outstanding amount column (0090) of Z 02.00.a.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Outstanding Amount: Total liabilities and own funds including derivative liabilities = Liabilities excluded from bail-in + Liabilities not excluded from bail-in + Own funds

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Add up the parts in your file and compare the result with the total.
  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.
  4. 04EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark Z 02.00 as reported.
  6. 06This is a warning. It does not stop the filing on its own, but your authority may ask you to explain it.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Liabilities excluded from bail-in1,200
Liabilities not excluded from bail-in800
Own funds450
Together2,450
What the rule then expects

Total liabilities and own funds including derivative liabilities must then be 2,450.

2,450Passes
2,550Fails

A file that reports 2,450 passes. One that reports 2,550 fails, by 100.

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

{Z_02.00.a,r0600,c0090,} = {Z_02.00.a,r0100,c0090,} + {Z_02.00.a,r0300,c0090,} + {Z_02.00.a,r0500,c0090,}

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