The rule in plain words
The MCR floor reported in Minimum Capital Requirement - Both life and non-life insurance activity (S.28.02) must be equal to 25% of the 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.
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.28.02 as reported.
