A bank shall retain an audit trail in respect of the underlying data relating to the base models supporting the relevant form BA 300, which audit trail— |
| (a) |
shall provide a reconciliation between the total assets and the total liabilities reported on the form BA 300 and the total assets and the total liabilities contained in the reporting bank's general ledger systems, which reconciliation— |
| (i) |
shall be made available to the Registrar on request; |
| (ii) |
shall not be included in the form BA 300; |
| (b) |
shall contain adequate explanations in respect of any reconciliation differences. |
| (4) |
Unless specifically otherwise provided, any position reported on the form BA 300 shall be included in the relevant time bucket based on the position's remaining term to contractual maturity. In the case of a product with multiple maturity dates, the reporting bank shall assume that— |
| (a) |
cash inflows will occur only at the latest residual contractual maturity date; |
| (b) |
cash outflows will occur at the earliest residual contractual maturity date. |

Whenever specified or relevant, all amounts reported on the form BA 300 in respect of a specified bucket shall represent the respective total amounts relating to, amongst others— |
| (a) |
assets, which total amount of assets shall be gross of any related impairment, allowance or provision for loss; |
| (d) |
derivative instruments, which total amount shall be the aggregate present value amount of the relevant cash flow amounts. |

| (b) |
shall in accordance with Financial Reporting Standards issued from time to time translate to the reporting currency any asset or liability item denominated in foreign currency; |
| (c) |
shall report all inflows and outflows as positive amounts. |
