The rule in plain words
Inflows cannot be less than inflow of exposures granted in the past 24 months.
EBA checks it for seven columns: non-performing exposures - loans and advances, households, loans collateralised by residential immovable property, non-financial corporations, SMEs, commercial Real Estate (CRE) loans to SMEs, and commercial Real Estate (CRE) loans to NFCs other than SMEs. That makes seven checks. A failure names the one that failed.
How the Line4 Check report words itShowHide
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.

What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Compare the values in your file. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
- 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 24.01 as reported.
- 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.
Inflow of exposures granted in the past 24 months can then be at most 1,200.
A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
