SA exposures of which subject to a roll-out plan shouldn't exceed TOTAL SA Exposures (OF07.00.01.01, OF09.01.01.01, OF02.00.01.01, Bank of England check boe_b0511)

A blocking check 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) and own funds requirements (CA2) (OF02.00.01.01) templates, in the own funds (PRA001) return.

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) return, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all three test files of that return.

The rule in plain words

SA exposures of which subject to a roll-out plan shouldn't exceed TOTAL SA Exposures

In each of 13 columns (listed below) of Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA) (OF07.00.01.01): "of which: Exposures subject to the standardised approach due to a roll-out plan" (row 0060) must not be more than "Total exposures" (row 0010).

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your return. If the first is bigger than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
  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 as reported.
  5. 05This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

Which returns it applies to

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) return on Bank of England banking taxonomy 4.1.1. The Bank of England applies it to own funds (PRA001) returns, as a blocking check.

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.

Show the formulaShow

The Bank of England's formula. Cells are written as {t: table, r: row, c: column}.

{t: OF07.00.01.01, r: 0060} <= {t: OF07.00.01.01, r: 0010}

Where it applies, in the Bank's words (its scope):

scope({t: OF07.00.01.01, c:0010;0040;0100;0110;0120;0150;0160;0170;0171;0180;0190;0200;0220,z:0001;0002;0003;0004;0005;0006;0007;0008;0009;0010;0011;0012;0013;0015;0016;0017, f: banking, fv: banking_reporting})

Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision. Line4 builds SupTech software for financial regulators that runs checks like these as each return arrives.
