Basic information - general and list of assets: a value must not be more than another (IR.01.02, IR.06.02, Bank of England rule IR_bv1752_01)

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.

What to do if your return fails it

1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
2. 02Compare the values in your return. If the first is bigger than it may be, one of them is wrong: check both before you change either.
3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark IR.01.02 and IR.06.02 as reported.
4. 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.

The cells it reads

Which returns it applies to

Line4 Check runs it on quarterly solo (QRS) and annual solo (ARS) returns on Bank of England taxonomy 2.2.0. The Bank of England applies it to quarterly solo (QRS) and annual solo (ARS) returns, as a warning.

The Bank’s own words and formula

In the Bank of England’s list of validations, word for word:

The item "maturity date" in template IR.06.02 - List of assets should be equal to or after the reporting reference date reported in IR.01.02 - Basic information - general, except for specific cases such as assets in default.

Other rules on Basic information - general (IR.01.02)

Every Solvency UK rule on IR.01.02

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.
