Question

According to the validation rules v3079_m and v3080_m, the loans and receivables for Non-financial corporations of template F 06.00 have to be equal with the loans and receivables for Non-financial corporations of template F 18.00. It is explicitly stated that only DEBT INSTRUMENTS AT FAIR VALUE OTHER THAN HFT have to be reported in table F 18.00. However table F 06.00 includes all debt instruments including HFT. Therefore the validation rule cannot be run with the defined operator "=".

Background

According to the validation rule 'v3080_m' the loans and receivables for Non-financial corporations (non-performing) of table F 06.00 have to be equal with the loans and receivables for Non-financial corporations of table F 18.00.a. It is explicitly stated that only DEBT INSTRUMENTS AT FAIR VALUE OTHER THAN HFT have to be reported in table F 18.00.a. However table F 06.00 includes all debt instruments including HFT. This discrepancy is similar to the validation rule v3079_m.

Answer

The validation rule v3079_m was deactivated as the scope of column 010 of template F 06.00 of Annexes III and IV to Regulation (EU) No 680/2014 (ITS on Supervisory Reporting) is wider, i.e. in contrast to c010 of template F 18.00 of Annexes III and IV, it includes also loans and advances held for trading. The validation rule v3080_m compares the stock of non-performing loans and advances, which are defined with reference to Part 2, paragraphs 145 – 162 of Annex V both for the purposes of template F 06.00 and F 18.00. Hence the definition and scope is the same between the templates and the rule remains valid.
