Own funds requirements (CA2): this sum represents the calculation for Total Risk exposure amount under all approaches (OF02.00.01.01, Bank of England check boe_b1092)

A warning on the own funds requirements (CA2) template (OF02.00.01.01), 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

This sum represents the calculation for Total Risk exposure amount under all approaches

In column "All approaches" (0010) of Own funds requirements (CA2) (OF02.00.01.01): "Total risk exposure amount" (row 0010) must equal the sum of 9 rows (listed below).

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Add up the parts in your return and compare the result with the total.
  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.
  4. 04The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark OF02.00.01 as reported.
  6. 06This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
