ECB Publishes Version 1.3 of AnaCredit Validation Checks
ECB published Version 1.3 of the AnaCredit validation checks. This document supplements the AnaCredit reporting manual by explaining the main set of validation checks that will be performed to ensure that the quality of data is satisfactory. The document provides detailed information and guidance on AnaCredit reporting requirements, but does not contain any additional requirements, and is not legally binding.
Validation checks ensure that the information registered in AnaCredit complies with the AnaCredit data model. These checks also allow the methodologically inconsistent data (although the data might be logically compliant with the AnaCredit data model) to be identified. The published validation checks are a minimum set of self-contained rules, which the data reported to AnaCredit must satisfy to ensure that the information is complete and consistent, in accordance with the principles of the AnaCredit data model. Besides being consistent with the AnaCredit model and the AnaCredit Regulation, validation checks take into account the general methodology of the AnaCredit Manual.
