Bundesbank Publishes Derivation Rules and Deactivated Validation Rules
Bundesbank updated Version 5.1 of the derivation rules for completeness check at the form level, with respect to the data quality of the European harmonized reporting system. The requirements in Version 5.1 of the derivation rules, which were earlier published on January 25, 2021 and February 08, 2021, apply to all credit institutions within the meaning of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR). Bundesbank also published a list of nationally deactivated validation rules.
ECB has formulated data quality requirements for uniform supervision in the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM). These requirements are being checked against five criteria: punctuality, completeness, correctness and consistency, continuity, and plausibility. The completeness check is based on the existence of all modules and forms to be submitted. The completeness of a report depends on factors specific to the institution and is, therefore, assessed on an individual basis. In addition to the checks at the module and form levels, completeness is also checked at the data point level.
