Internal model: market and credit risk - for financial instruments: a total must equal the sum of its parts (S.26.09, EIOPA rule BV1749_2)

A blocking check on the internal model: market and credit risk - for financial instruments template (S.26.09), 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

The equity risk sum must be equal to the sum of the components it is broken down to

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.

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the table 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  3. 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.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. 04EIOPA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
  5. 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.26.09 as reported.
  6. 06This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.

The cells it reads

Internal model: market and credit risk - for financial instruments: internal model - market and credit risk for financial instruments - mVaR and vaR percentiles - including LAC TP but excluding LAC DT - each as marginal shock in the designated risk (S.26.09.04.02)
