Internal model: market and credit risk - for financial instruments: values must agree (S.26.09, EIOPA rule BV1826)

A warning 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 value of "Assets minus Liabilities" for relevant stress scenarios reported in S.26.09.04.03 Standalone Market and credit risk: Sensitivities & exposure data should be equal to the difference between "Assets" and "Liabilities"

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.

This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it. It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.26.09 as reported.
