Non-life outwards reinsurance contract information: all columns, except C0260, must be reported for each row (IR.30.03, Bank of England rule IR_bv0015_01)

A blocking check on the non-life outwards reinsurance contract information template (IR.30.03), in the annual solo (ARS) and annual third-country branch (ARB) returns.

The rule in plain words

All columns, except C0260, must be reported for each row

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 IR.30.03 as reported.

The cells it reads

Columns

  • C0160Gross estimated reinsurance contract premium
  • C0170Aggregate deductibles (amount)
  • C0190Retention or priority (amount)
  • C0210Limit (amount)
  • C0230Maximum cover per risk or event
  • C0240Maximum cover per contract
  • C0450Gross estimated reinsurance premium ceded
