Repurchase agreements cannot be negative (EBA rule v90230_s)

A warning in the resolution planning: critical functions and services return (RESOL2), on template Z 07.01.5.c, criticality assessment of economic functions (FUNC 1 WF).c.

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Repurchase agreements cannot be negative.

EBA checks it for five rows: borrowing, lending, other product types (1), other product types (2) and other product types (3). That makes five 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.

(Reverse) repurchase agreements: Other product types (1) >= 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 Z 07.01.5 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.

The cells it reads

Criticality assessment of economic functions (FUNC 1 WF).c (Z 07.01.5.c)

Rows

  • 0320Borrowing

  • 0370Other product types (2)
  • 0380Other product types (3)

Column

  • 0050(Reverse) repurchase agreements

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

What the rule then expects

Other product types (1), repurchase agreements must then be at least 0.

0Passes
-100Fails

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

The numbers are illustrative.

Show the rule as writtenShow

EBA's formula, as written out for the first of its checks. Cells are written as {template, row, column, sheet}.

{Z_07.01.5.c,r0360,c0050,} >= 0

The next four:

{Z_07.01.5.c,r0380,c0050,} >= 0{Z_07.01.5.c,r0370,c0050,} >= 0{Z_07.01.5.c,r0320,c0050,} >= 0{Z_07.01.5.c,r0340,c0050,} >= 0

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