Basic information: the format of a code or text (S.01.02, EIOPA rule BV1156)

A blocking check on the basic information template (S.01.02), in the quarterly solo (QRS), quarterly group (QRG), annual solo (ARS), annual group (ARG), financial stability solo (QFS) and financial stability group (QFG) returns.

It applies to 2.8.2 returns too, the release for the 2026 returns, and Line4 Check runs it there as well.

The rule in plain words

The provided information doesn’t reflect the string "NOT PROVIDED/NOT AVAILABLE“, "SFCR file not provided", "SFCR file provided", "0" nor an URL pattern. In case the intention was to provide the URL - please double check the URL to ensure that is indeed a direct link to the SFCR file

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.

EIOPA writes it out as separate checks, one for each table or return it covers. Line4 Check runs three of them (BV1156-1 to BV1156-3), and a failure names the one that failed.

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the code or text in your return with the format the rule sets out, character by character, including any prefix and any spaces.
  3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.01.02 as reported.
  4. 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

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.
