1 min readWarningEBA reporting framework 4.2Updated 10 November 2026

Row 0211 cannot be less than row 0212 (EBA rule v90324_m)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 02.00.b, own funds requirements.

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

Row 0211 cannot be less than row 0212.

All the values are in the output floor S-TREA column (0020) of C 02.00.b.

How the Line4 Check report words itShow

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

Output floor S-TREA: row 0211 >= row 0212

What to do if your filing fails it

  1. 01Open the template below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 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.
  3. 03EBA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C 02.00 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.

A worked example

The first of its checks, with simple numbers.

Illustrative values
row 02111,200
What the rule then expects

Row 0212 can then be at most 1,200.

1,200Passes
1,300Fails

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.

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