The rule in plain words

The data entry for the corresponding cell should be greater than or equal to zero

In Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements for SDDTs (CR SA SDDT) (SC07.00.01.01): every value in the cells it covers must be zero or more.

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Look for a value below zero in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
  3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark SC07.00.01 as reported.
  4. 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
