The rule in plain words
Aggregates provided in OF02.01 and OF02.00 should be consistent
In Own funds requirements (CA2) (OF02.00.01.01): if "Total risk exposure amount" in column "Output Floor" (row 0010, column 0030) is reported, "Total" in column "Total RWA (U-TREA)" (row 0080, column 0030) in Output floor - Total RWA (OFL) (OF02.01.01.03) must equal "Total risk exposure amount" in column "All approaches" (row 0010, column 0010).
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02The check applies only when its first part holds in your return. When it does, the second part must hold too: fix the second part, or correct the first.
- 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 OF02.00.01 and OF02.01.01 as reported.
- 05This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
