Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA): two values must match (OF07.00.01.01, OF09.01.01.01, SC07.00.01.01 and others, Bank of England check boe_b0265)

A warning on the credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA) (OF07.00.01.01), geographical breakdown of exposures by residence of the obligor: SA exposures (OF CR GB 1) (OF09.01.01.01), credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements for SDDTs (CR SA SDDT) (SC07.00.01.01) and geographical breakdown of exposures by residence of the obligor (SA EXPOSURES) (CR GB 1) (SC09.01.01.01) templates, in the own funds (PRA001) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns.

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all six test files of those returns.

The rule in plain words

subordinated debt, equity and other capital instrument exposures in default reported in OF 07.00 in r 0015 c0010 for the exposure class sheet should be equal to that in OF 09.01 for the defaulted exposures for subordinated debt, equity and other capital instrument (row 0150)

In Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA) (OF07.00.01.01): "of which: Defaulted exposures" in column "Original exposure pre conversion factors" (row 0015, column 0010) on sheet "Subordinated debt, equity and other own funds instruments" (sheet 0016) must equal "Subordinated debt, equity and other own funds instruments" in column "Defaulted exposures" (row 0150, column 0020) (where country where the exposure is generated is "All countries") in Geographical breakdown of exposures by residence of the obligor: SA exposures (OF CR GB 1) (OF09.01.01.01).

The headline gives only the template and the kind of check, because the rule is too long to say in a headline. The plain words above say all of it.

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02The two values must be the same. Find which of the two is right, and correct the other one.
  3. 03The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark OF07.00.01 and OF09.01.01 as reported.
  5. 05This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.

Which returns it applies to

The Bank’s own words and formula

The first paragraph of the plain words above is the Bank of England’s own, word for word, from its list of validations. The second spells out its formula, with each cell named from its templates.
