The rule in plain words
Total non-financial exposures must equal to the sum of non-financial SME exposures and exposures other than SME exposures, reported in rows 0260 and 0270 of this column respectively.
In each of "Leverage Ratio Exposure Value: IRB Exposures" (column 0020) and "RWEA: IRB exposures" (column 0040) of (LR4) Alternative breakdown of leverage ratio exposure measure components: Other non-trading book exposures (IRB) (LV43.00.00.03): "Non-financial" (row 0250) must equal the sum of "SME exposures" (row 0260) and "Exposures other than SME exposures" (row 0270).
The headline gives only the template and the kind of check, because the rule is too long to say in a headline. The plain words above say all of it.
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Add up the parts in your return and compare the result with the total.
- 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.
- 04The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark LV43.00.00.03 as reported.
- 06This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

Line4 Check runs it on the leverage ratio (LVR001) return on Bank of England banking taxonomy 4.1.1. The Bank of England applies it to leverage ratio (LVR001) 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.

Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision. Line4 builds SupTech software for financial regulators that runs checks like these as each return arrives.
