"Of which: defaulted" must not be more than "Non-performing" (SR18.00.04.05, Bank of England check boe_v8135_m)

A warning on the intragroup financial reporting (detailed breakdown) Information on performing and non-performing exposures template (SR18.00.04.05), in the intragroup financial reporting (core and detailed breakdowns) (RFB004) return.

Line4 Check runs it on the intragroup financial reporting (core and detailed breakdowns) (RFB004) return, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all eight test files of that return.

The rule in plain words

In each of "Loan commitments given" (row 0340), "Financial guarantees given" (row 0410), "Other Commitments given" (row 0480) and "Off-balance sheet exposures" (row 0550) of Intragroup financial reporting (detailed breakdown) Information on performing and non-performing exposures (SR18.00.04.05): "Of which: defaulted" (column 0110) must not be more than "Non-performing" (column 0060).

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your return. If the first is bigger than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
  3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark SR18.00.04 as reported.
  4. 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.

The Bank’s own words and formula

The plain words above spell out the Bank’s formula, with each cell named from its templates. In the Bank of England’s list of validations, word for word:

boe_v8135_m: T1: SR18.00.04.05; rows: {SR18.00.04.05, r0340;0410;0480;0550}; Expression: {SR18.00.04.05, c0110} <= {SR18.00.04.05, c0060}

{t: SR18.00.04.05, c: 0110} <= {t: SR18.00.04.05, c: 0060}

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