3 min readWarningBank of England banking taxonomy 4.1.1Updated 11 November 2026

"Total exposures" must equal the sum of "Originator: total exposures", "Investor: total exposures" and "Sponsor: total exposures" (C13.01.01.01, SC13.01.01.01, SC02.00.01.01, Bank of England check v7328_m)

A warning on the credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C13.01.01.01), credit risk: securitisations for SDDTs (CR SEC SDDT) (SC13.01.01.01) and own funds requirements for SDDTs (CA2 SDDT) (SC02.00.01.01) 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 each of 86 columns (listed below) of Credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C13.01.01.01): "Total exposures" (row 0010) must equal the sum of "Originator: total exposures" (row 0080), "Investor: total exposures" (row 0200) and "Sponsor: total exposures" (row 0320).

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.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
Originator: total exposures1,200
Investor: total exposures800
Sponsor: total exposures450
Together2,450
What the rule then expects

Total exposures must then be 2,450.

2,450Passes
2,550Fails

A file that reports 2,450 passes. One that reports 2,550 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.
