Credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC): a total must equal the sum of its parts (C13.01.01.01, SC13.01.01.01, Bank of England check v7324_m)

A warning on the credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C13.01.01.01) and credit risk: securitisations for SDDTs (CR SEC SDDT) (SC13.01.01.01) 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.

Check your file for this ruleWhat to do if it fails

The rule in plain words

In each of 43 rows (listed below) of Credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C13.01.01.01): "Fully adjusted exposure value (E*)" (column 0140) must equal the sum of "Net exposure after CRM substitution effects pre conversion factors" (column 0120) and "(-) Credit risk mitigation techniques affecting the amount of the exposure: funded credit protection financial collateral comprehensive method adjusted value (Cvam)" (column 0130).

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

  1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Add up the parts in your return and compare the result with the total.
  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.
  4. 04The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark C13.01.01 as reported.
  6. 06This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.

A worked example

With simple numbers.

Illustrative values
Net exposure after CRM substitution effects pre conversion factors1,200
(-) Credit risk mitigation techniques affecting the amount of the exposure: funded credit protection financial collateral comprehensive method adjusted value (Cvam)800
Together2,000
What the rule then expects

Fully adjusted exposure value (E*) must then be 2,000.

2,000Passes
2,100Fails

A file that reports 2,000 passes. One that reports 2,100 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) and own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) returns on Bank of England banking taxonomy 4.1.1. The Bank of England applies it to own funds for SDDTs (PRA116) and own funds (PRA001) returns, as a warning.

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:

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.
