Check a file before you file it

Line4 Check for EBA reporting runs EBA's own validation rules on a GSII file in your browser, free. Your file never leaves your computer. What it runs, from its published manifest:

  • EBA release 4.2: all 17 of EBA's active checks.

Every EBA rule for G-SII, in plain words

It is not a substitute for the validation the supervisor runs when you submit.

Templates (1)

The tables and forms inside the return. Plain name first, the EBA's code in brackets.

  • G-SII indicators and EBU items (G-SII) (G 01.00)

Templates of module GSII in EBA release 4.2, read from the module's entry point in the taxonomy package; parts of a template split into sub-tables (a, b, c) are listed once. Source

Validation rules

2 rules, as counted from the EBA's published material. Software can run them exactly as published. Source

How they are written: Excel list with one row per rule and module version: an expression column in the EBA's DPM-XL syntax, severity (error or warning), active status and reference-date range. The same rules ship as XBRL Formula assertions in the taxonomy package..

EBA's list applies the active GSII_4.2 rules to reference dates from 2026-03-31 with no end date set.

The rules, on eba.europa.eu

How they were counted

Distinct rule codes listed for module GSII_4.2 in EBA's validation rules list VR_4.4.phase1_.xlsx ((from 4.0) EBA_Validation rules, latest update 12/10/2026) with IsActive = Active: 2 of 4 listed. 0 of the active rules have severity error; the rest are warnings.

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

Public data

No published data from this return was found. No publication of this return's data found on the EBA's risk analysis and data pages (checked 2026-11-11). Source
