The value reported in column "Total" reported in Own funds must be equal to the sum of values reported as "Tier 2" and "Tier 3" (S.23.01, EIOPA rule BV533)

A blocking check on the own funds template (S.23.01), in the quarterly branch (QRB) and annual branch (ARB) returns.

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 reported in column "Total" reported in Own funds (S.23.01) must be equal to the sum of values reported as "Tier 2" and "Tier 3"

EIOPA writes it out as separate checks, one for each table or return it covers. Line4 Check runs two of them (BV533-1 and BV533-2), and a failure names the one that failed.

This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit. It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.23.01 as reported.

EIOPA's formula, for BV533-2. Cells are written as {t: table, r: row, c: column}.

{t: S.23.01.08.01, c: C0010, z: Z0001} = {t: S.23.01.08.01, c: C0040, z: Z0001} + {t: S.23.01.08.01, c: C0050, z: Z0001}

BV533-1:

{t: S.23.01.07.01, c: C0010, z: Z0001} = {t: S.23.01.07.01, c: C0040, z: Z0001} + {t: S.23.01.07.01, c: C0050, z: Z0001}

Checks like this one, run at the point of submission, are the first step to real-time supervision. Line4 builds SupTech software for financial regulators that runs checks like these as each return arrives.
