The size of "(-) Value adjustments and provisions" (ignoring its sign) must not be more than "Total amount" (C14.00.01.01, SC14.00.01.01, Bank of England check v4797_m)

A blocking check on the detailed information on securitisations (CR SEC Details) (C14.00.01.01) and detailed information on securitisations for SDDTs (SEC Details SDDT) (SC14.00.01.01) templates, in the own funds (PRA001) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns.

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all six test files of those returns.

The rule in plain words

In Detailed information on securitisations (CR SEC Details) (C14.00.01.01): the size of "(-) Value adjustments and provisions" (column 0210) (ignoring its sign) must not be more than "Total amount" (column 0140).

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the tables 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. 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 C14.00.01 as reported.
  5. 05This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
