Solvency capital requirement - non-life underwriting risk and solvency capital requirement - non-life and health catastrophe risk: values must agree (IRR.26.05, IRR.27.01, Bank of England rule IR_bv0652_02)

The rule in plain words

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 IRR.27.01 as reported.

The item "Diversification between sub-modules" reported in IRR.27.01.01.01 - Solvency Capital Requirement - Non-life and Health catastrophe risk should be equal to the difference between "Total Non-life catastrophe risk after diversification" and "Total Non-life catastrophe risk before diversification".
