The rule in plain words
Each of the values it checks in collateral obtained cannot be more than zero.
EBA checks it for five columns: accumulated impairment, accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk, accumulated negative changes (0050), accumulated negative changes (0080), accumulated negative changes (0110) and accumulated negative changes (0140). And for eleven rows, from residential immovable property (0010) to total (0110). That makes 55 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.
Accumulated impairment, accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk: Of which: Land related to commercial real estate corporations (excluding agricultural land) <= 0
What to do if your filing fails it
- 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Look for a value with the wrong sign in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
- 03EBA compares the values exactly here: there is no rounding tolerance.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark F 25.02 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.
Land related to commercial real estate corporations (excluding agricultural land), accumulated impairment, accumulated negative changes in fair value due to credit risk can then be at most 0.
A file that reports 0 passes. One that reports 100 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.
