A warning on the credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA) template (OF07.00.01.01), in the own funds (PRA001) return.

The rule in plain words

counterparty credit risk exposures (c0200) should equal c0210

In Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA) (OF07.00.01.01): "Of which: Centrally cleared through a QCCP" in column "Exposure value" (row 0120, column 0200) must equal "Of which: Centrally cleared through a QCCP" in column "Of which: Arising from Counterparty Credit Risk" (row 0120, column 0210) in Credit and counterparty credit risks and free deliveries: standardised approach to capital requirements (CR SA) - Of which: Arising from Counterparty Credit Risk (OF07.00.01.02).

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table 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 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.

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

{t: OF07.00.01.01, r: 0120, c: 0200} = {t: OF07.00.01.02, r: 0120, c: 0210}

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

scope({t: OF07.00.01.01, z:0001;0002;0003;0004;0005;0006;0007;0008;0009;0010;0011;0012;0013;0015;0016;0017, f: banking, fv: banking_reporting},{t: OF07.00.01.02, z:0001;0002;0003;0004;0005;0006;0007;0008;0009;0010;0011;0012;0013;0015;0016;0017, f: banking, fv: banking_reporting})
