The rule in plain words
If group does not use method 2 exclusively, does not report by RFF, does not use MAP and uses the standard formula to calculate the group SCR then template Solvency Capital Requirement - Market risk (S.26.01) has to be reported
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 and S.01.02 as reported.
- 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
