The rule in plain words
TOTAL CORPORATES should exceed or be equal to each individual Corporates exposure class
In each of 12 columns (listed below) of Geographical breakdown of exposures by residence of the obligor: IRB exposures (CR GB 2) (OF09.02.01.01): "Corporates" (row 0030) must not be less than "Other general corporates SMEs" (row 0050).
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Compare the values in your return. If the first is smaller than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
- 03The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark OF09.02.01 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
