Own funds for SDDTs (CA1 SDDT): "Additional tier 1 capital" must equal the sum of 7 cells (SC01.00.01.01, Bank of England check boe_b0029_ss)

A blocking check on the own funds for SDDTs (CA1 SDDT) template (SC01.00.01.01), in the own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) return.

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) return, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all three test files of that return.

The rule in plain words

In column "Amount" (0010) of Own funds for SDDTs (CA1 SDDT) (SC01.00.01.01): "Additional tier 1 capital" (row 0530) must equal the sum of 7 cells (listed below).

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Add up the parts in your return and compare the result with the total.
  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.
  4. 04The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark SC01.00.01 as reported.
  6. 06This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
