The rule in plain words
In each of "Forecast - end current year" (column 0010) and "Forecast - end next year" (column 0020) of Balance Sheet: Forecast data [Assets] (FF01.01.02.01): every value in "(-) Haircuts for trading assets at fair value" (row 0375) must be zero or more.
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Look for a value below zero in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
- 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark FF01.01.02 as reported.
- 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
