The sum of "Exposure value" on 4 sheets must equal "Total exposures" in column "Exposure value" in Credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C14.01.01.01, C13.01.01.01, Bank of England check v7378_m)

A warning on the detailed information on securitisations by approach (CR SEC Details 2) (C14.01.01.01) and credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C13.01.01.01) templates, in the own funds (PRA001) return.

Line4 Check runs it on the own funds (PRA001) return, proven on test files, check by check: the same outcome on all three test files of that return.

The rule in plain words

In Detailed information on securitisations by approach (CR SEC Details 2) (C14.01.01.01): the sum of "Exposure value" (column 0411) on 4 sheets must equal "Total exposures" in column "Exposure value" (row 0010, column 0180) in Credit risk: securitisations (CR SEC) (C13.01.01.01).

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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.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 and C14.01.01 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.

v7378_m: [C14.01.01.01] sum({C14.0.01.01, c0411, (rNNN, sNNN)}) = {C13.01.01.01, r0010, c0180}
