The rules, on bankofengland.co.uk

How they were counted

Rows in sheet 'financialstatements' of 'Bank of England Banking Taxonomy Validations Financial Statements v4.1.0.xlsx' (validations ZIP v4.1.1) whose T1 to T3 table columns include a FF01.01 table, across the PRA_IFRS and PRA_GAAP entry points. A rule that spans several of PRA104 to PRA107 is counted for each.

Counts are in the PRA's own unit, so they are not comparable with other regulators' counts.

Public data
