Exposure value, >4 years <=5 years cannot be negative (EBA rule v903623_s)

A warning in the own funds and capital requirements return (COREP own funds), on template C 35.03, nPE loss coverage: minimum coverage requirements and exposure values of non-performing forborne exposures that fall under article 47c (6) CRR (NPE lc3).

The rule in plain words

Exposure value, >4 years <=5 years cannot be negative.

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

>4 years <=5 years: Exposure value >= 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 35.03 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.
