Applicable weight must be at least 0.25 (C 73.00.a, row 1060, EBA rule v7576_m)

A warning in the liquidity coverage ratio return (LCR), on template C 73.00.a, liquidity coverage, outflows, total (DA).

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Applicable weight must be at least 0.25.

EBA checks it for five rows: not covered by DGS, not treated as liquid assets for the depositing institution, operational deposits maintained in the context of an established operational relationship (other) with non-financial customers, operational deposits maintained to obtain cash clearing and central credit institution services within a network, and level 2B asset-backed securities (residential or automobile, CQS1) collateral. That makes five 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.

Applicable weight: level 2B asset-backed securities (residential or automobile, CQS1) collateral >= 0.25

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Look for a value outside the limit in these cells.
  3. 03If the value is a percentage, EBA expects it as a decimal: 12% is reported as 0.12.
  4. 04EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 73.00 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.

What the rule then expects

Level 2B asset-backed securities (residential or automobile, CQS1) collateral, applicable weight must then be at least 0.25.

0.25Passes
0.15Fails

A file that reports 0.25 passes. One that reports 0.15 fails, by 0.1.

The numbers are illustrative.
