The rule in plain words
This is the TIER1 Capital amount calculated by using as parameters c0010 or c0030 if it’s greater than c0010
In Own funds requirements (CA2) (OF02.00.01.01): if "Total risk exposure amount" in column "Output Floor" (row 0010, column 0030) is more than "Total risk exposure amount" in column "All approaches" (row 0010, column 0010), "Tier 1 capital" in column "Amount" (row 0015, column 0010) in Own funds (CA1) (C01.00.01.01) must equal "Total risk exposure amount" in column "Output Floor" (row 0010, column 0030) multiplied by "T1 Capital ratio" in column "Amount" (row 0030, column 0010) in Capital adequacy - capital ratios (CA3) (C03.00.01.01); otherwise "Tier 1 capital" in column "Amount" (row 0015, column 0010) in Own funds (CA1) (C01.00.01.01) must equal "Total risk exposure amount" in column "All approaches" (row 0010, column 0010) multiplied by "T1 Capital ratio" in column "Amount" (row 0030, column 0010) in Capital adequacy - capital ratios (CA3) (C03.00.01.01).
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the tables 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 C01.00.01, C03.00.01 and OF02.00.01 as reported.
- 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.
