Minimum capital requirement - both life and non-life insurance activity: values must agree (S.28.02, EIOPA rule BV932)

A blocking check on the minimum capital requirement - both life and non-life insurance activity template (S.28.02), in the annual solo (ARS) 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 Notional MCR (Life) reported in Minimum Capital Requirement - Both life and non-life insurance activity (S.28.02) must be calculated in accordance with Article 252 (7) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/35

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.

{t: S.28.02.01.06, r: R0560, c: C0150, z: Z0001} = max({t: S.28.02.01.06, r: R0540, c: C0150, z: Z0001}, {t: S.28.02.01.06, r: R0550, c: C0150, 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.
