The rule in plain words
IR.02.01 R0554 is equal to IR.17.01 R0280C0180
What to do if your return fails it
- 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
- 02The two values must be the same. Find which of the two is right, and correct the other one.
- 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark IR.02.01 and IR.17.01 as reported.
- 04This is a blocking check. A return that fails it is normally rejected, so fix it before you submit.
The cells it reads
Balance sheet (IR.02.01.02.01)
Row
- R0554Risk margin - non-life
Column
- C0010Solvency II value
Non-life technical provisions (IR.17.01.02.01)
Row
- R0280Risk margin
Column
- C0180Total Non-Life obligation
A worked example
With simple numbers.
Risk margin - non-life, Solvency II value must then be 1,200.
A file that reports 1,200 passes. One that reports 1,300 fails, by 100.
The numbers are illustrative.
Which returns it applies to
Line4 Check runs it on quarterly solo (QRS) return on Bank of England taxonomy 2.2.0. The Bank of England applies it to quarterly solo (QRS) returns, as a blocking check.
