1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.02.a must equal the sum of its three parts (EBA rule v7823_m)

A warning in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on templates F 18.00.a, information on performing and non-performing exposures (I) and F 18.02.a, commercial Real Estate (CRE) loans and additional information on loans secured by immovable property (I).

The rule in plain words

Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.02.a must equal these three added up:

  • Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.00.a (row 0140)
  • Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.00.a (row 0903)
  • Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.00.a (row 0923)

All the values are in the gross carrying amount column (0010).

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

F_18.00.A: Non-financial corporations, of which: Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property, Gross carrying amount/Nominal amount (row 0140) + F_18.00.A: Non-financial corporations, of which: Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property, Gross carrying amount/Nominal amount (row 0903) + F_18.00.A: Non-financial corporations, of which: Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property, Gross carrying amount/Nominal amount (row 0923) = F_18.02.A: Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property, Gross carrying amount

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the templates 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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong row, or the total is out of date.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 F 18.00 and F 18.02 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
Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.00.a (row 0140)1,200
Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.00.a (row 0903)800
Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.00.a (row 0923)450
Together2,450
What the rule then expects

Loans collateralised by commercial immovable property in F 18.02.a 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.
