None of the 63 values it checks in maturity ladder, total, behavioural flows can be negative (C 66.01.c, EBA rule v903558_s)

A warning in the additional liquidity monitoring metrics return (ALMM), on template C 66.01.c, maturity ladder, total, behavioural flows.

Check your file against this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

None of the values it checks in maturity ladder, total, behavioural flows can be negative.

The value is on the total currencies sheet (0010) of C 66.01.c.

EBA checks it for 21 columns, from overnight (0020) to greater than 5 years (0220). And for three rows: behavioural outflows from deposits, behavioural inflows from loans and advances, and behavioural draw-downs of committed facilities. That makes 63 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.

Greater than 30 days up to 5 weeks: Behavioural outflows from deposits, Total currencies >= 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 C 66.01 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.

What the rule then expects

Behavioural outflows from deposits, greater than 30 days up to 5 weeks 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.

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

{C_66.01.c,r1270,c0120,s0010} >= 0

The next five:

{C_66.01.c,r1290,c0160,s0010} >= 0{C_66.01.c,r1290,c0070,s0010} >= 0{C_66.01.c,r1290,c0100,s0010} >= 0{C_66.01.c,r1290,c0170,s0010} >= 0{C_66.01.c,r1290,c0040,s0010} >= 0

And 57 more, the same formula for the other cells it covers.

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