Value of "Adjustment for expected losses due to counterparty default" should be negative (S.31.01, EIOPA rule BV1615)

A warning on the share of reinsurers (including finite reinsurance and SPV's) template (S.31.01), in the annual group (ARG) return.

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

Value of "Adjustment for expected losses due to counterparty default" should be negative

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Compare the values in your return. If the first is bigger than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
  3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.31.01 as reported.
  4. 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
