The "Total" value reported in Own funds must be equal to the same item for "Tier 2" (S.23.01, EIOPA rule BV80)

A blocking check on the own funds template (S.23.01), in the quarterly solo (QRS), quarterly group (QRG), annual solo (ARS) and annual group (ARG) 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 "Total" value reported in Own funds (S.23.01) must be equal to the same item for "Tier 2"

EIOPA writes it out as separate checks, one for each table or return it covers. Line4 Check runs four of them (BV80-1 to BV80-4), and a failure names the one that failed.

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02The two values must be the same. Find which of the two is right, and correct the other one.
  3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.23.01 as reported.
  4. 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
