The item "Temporary identifier for currency 2" must not be reported (IR.02.02, IR.16.01, IR.19.01 and others, Bank of England rule IR_bv1646)

A blocking check on the assets and liabilities by currency (IR.02.02), non-life annuities information (IR.16.01), non-life claim development (IR.19.01), non-life general liability claim development (IR.19.02), solvency capital requirement - simplifications (IRR.26.07) and solvency capital requirement - simplifications (IR.26.07) templates, in the quarterly solo (QRS), quarterly group (QRG), annual solo (ARS), annual group (ARG) and annual third-country branch (ARB) returns.

The rule in plain words

The item "Temporary identifier for currency 2" must not be reported

What to do if your return fails it

  1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
  2. 02Remove the value from this cell where the rule applies. A 0 is a value too, so leave the cell out of the return altogether.
  3. 03This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
