Each of the 100 values it checks in (CR sec) credit risk: securitisations cannot be more than zero (C 13.01, EBA rule v7671_s)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 13.01, (CR sec) credit risk: securitisations.

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Each of the values it checks in (CR sec) credit risk: securitisations cannot be more than zero.

EBA checks it for four columns: (-) funded credit protection (Cva), (-) unfunded credit protection adjusted values (g*), (-) non refundable price purchase discount and (-) specific credit risk adjustments on underlying exposures. And for 25 rows, from total exposures (0010) to re-securitisations (0190). That makes 100 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.

(-) UNFUNDED CREDIT PROTECTION ADJUSTED VALUES (G*): ORIGINATOR: TOTAL EXPOSURES <= 0

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 with the wrong sign in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
  3. 03EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 13.01 as reported.
  5. 05This 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

Originator: total exposures, (-) unfunded credit protection adjusted values (g*) can then be at most 0.

0Passes
100Fails

A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports 100 fails, by 100.

The numbers are illustrative.
