The rule in plain words
The item "Consolidated Group SCR (including CR for other financial sectors, excluding SCR for undertakings included via D&A method)" reported in template Own funds (S.23.01), should be equal to the "Consolidated Group SCR" reported in template Calculation of Solvency Capital Requirement (S.25.01) - group reporting, as standard formula is used and "Consolidated Group SCR" is higher than "Minimum consolidated Group SCR"
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
- 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02The check applies only when its first part holds in your return. When it does, the second part must hold too: fix the second part, or correct the first.
- 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.01.01, S.23.01 and S.25.01 as reported.
- 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.
