The rule in plain words
The "Total eligible own funds to meet the minimum group SCR (group)" reported in Own funds (S.23.01) must be equal to the sum of the tiers
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02Add up the parts in your return and compare the result with the total.
- 03If they differ, a part is missing, a value sits in the wrong cell, or the total is out of date.
- 04EIOPA allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
- 05It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.23.01 as reported.
- 06This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
The cells it reads
Own funds (S.23.01.05.01)
Row
- R0570Total eligible own funds to meet the minimum consolidated group SCR
Columns
- C0010Total
- C0020Tier 1 - unrestricted
- C0030Tier 1 - restricted
- C0040Tier 2
A worked example
With simple numbers.
Total must then be 2,450.
A file that reports 2,450 passes. One that reports 2,550 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative, reported to the unit, so the rounding tolerance does not change the result.
Which returns it applies to
Line4 Check runs it on quarterly group (QRG) return on EIOPA taxonomy 2.10.0. EIOPA applies it to quarterly group (QRG) returns, as a blocking check.
