The rule in plain words
In each of "Unsettled transactions at settlement price" (column 0010), "Price difference exposure due to unsettled transactions" (column 0020) and "Own funds requirements" (column 0030) of Settlement/delivery risk (CR SETT) (C11.00.01.01): "Total unsettled transactions in the Trading Book" (row 0070) must equal the sum of "Transactions unsettled for 46 days or more (Factor 100%)" (row 0120), "Transactions unsettled up to 4 days (Factor 0%)" (row 0080), "Transactions unsettled between 16 and 30 days (Factor 50%)" (row 0100), "Transactions unsettled between 31 and 45 days (Factor 75%)" (row 0110) and "Transactions unsettled between 5 and 15 days (Factor 8%)" (row 0090).
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- 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.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 C11.00.01 as reported.
- 06This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

A worked example
With simple numbers.
Total unsettled transactions in the Trading Book must then be 2,900.
A file that reports 2,900 passes. One that reports 3,000 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
Which returns it applies to
Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) return on Bank of England banking taxonomy 4.1.1. The Bank of England applies it to own funds (PRA001) returns, as a blocking check.
The Bank’s own words and formula
