1 min readSwitched off by EBA on 17 March 2026EBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Non-financial corporations, defaulted gross carrying amount must equal the sum of its three parts (EBA rule v7836_m)

A check in the financial reporting return (FINREP 9), on templates F 18.00.a, information on performing and non-performing exposures (I) and F 20.04, geographical breakdown of assets by residence of the counterparty.

EBA switched this rule off for filings submitted from 17 March 2026, in a quarterly update to its list of validation rules. It no longer applies, so a failure here does not count, and Line4 Check does not run it.

The rule in plain words

For non-financial corporations: defaulted gross carrying amount must equal these three added up:

  • Defaulted gross carrying amount or nominal amount (row 0120)
  • Defaulted gross carrying amount or nominal amount (row 0226)
  • Defaulted gross carrying amount or nominal amount (row 0196)

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