The rule in plain words
In column "Amount" (0010) of Capital adequacy - memorandum items (CA4) (C04.00.01.01): "Non-domestic original exposures" (row 0850) must not be more than "Total original exposures" (row 0860).
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 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.
- 03The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C04.00.01 as reported.
- 05This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
