General comments:
This section relates to quarterly and annual submission of information for individual entities.
The derivatives categories referred to in this template are the ones defined in Annex IV — Assets Categories of this Regulation and references to CIC codes refer to Annex V — CIC table of this Regulation.
This template contains an item–by–item list of closed derivatives held directly by the undertaking (i.e. not on a look–through basis), classifiable as asset categories A to F. When a contract is still open but has been reduced in size the closed portion shall be reported.
Derivatives are considered assets if their Solvency II value is positive or zero. They are considered liabilities if their Solvency II value is negative or if they are issued by the undertaking. Both derivatives considered as assets or considered as liabilities shall be included.
Closed derivatives are the ones that were open at some point of the reference period (i.e. last quarter if template is submitted quarterly or last year if template is only submitted annually) but were closed before the end of the reporting period.
If there are frequent trades on the same derivative, the derivative can be reported on an aggregated or net basis (indicating only the first and the last trade dates), as long as all the relevant characteristics are common and following the specific instruction for each relevant item.
Items shall be reported with positive values unless otherwise stated in the respective instructions.
A derivative is a financial instrument or other contract with all three of the following characteristics:
Its value changes in response to the change in a specified interest rate, financial instrument price, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices or rates, credit rating or credit index, or other variable, provided in the case of a non–financial variable that the variable is not specific to a party to the contract (sometimes called the ‘underlying’).
It requires no initial net investment or an initial net investment that is smaller than would be required for other types of contracts that would be expected to have a similar response to changes in market factors.
It is settled at a future date.
This template comprises two tables: Information on positions held and Information on derivatives.
On the table Information on positions held, each derivative shall be reported separately in as many rows as needed in order to properly fill in all items requested in that table. If for the same derivative two values can be attributed to one variable, then this derivative needs to be reported in more than one line.
In particular, for derivatives that have more than a pair of currencies, it shall be split into the pair components and reported in different rows.
On the table Information on derivative, each derivative shall be reported separately, with one row for each derivative, filling in all variables requested in that table.

C0040 | Derivative ID Code | Derivative ID code using the following priority:
|
C0050 | Derivative ID Code type | Type of ID Code used for the ‘Derivative ID Code’ item. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used:
|
C0060 | Portfolio | Distinction between life, non–life, shareholder's funds, general (no split) and ring fenced funds. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used:
The split is not mandatory, except for identifying ring fenced funds, but shall be reported if the undertaking uses it internally. When an undertaking does not apply a split ‘general’ shall be used. |
C0070 | Fund number | Applicable to derivatives held in ring fenced funds or other internal funds (defined according to national markets). Number which is attributed by the undertaking, corresponding to the unique number assigned to each fund. This number has to be consistent over time and shall be used to identify the funds in other templates. It shall not be re–used for a different fund. |
C0080 | Derivatives held in unit linked and index linked contracts | Identify the derivatives that are held by unit linked and index linked contracts. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used:
|
C0090 | Instrument underlying the derivative | ID Code of the instrument (asset or liability) underlying the derivative contract. This item is to be provided only for derivatives that have a single or multiple underlying instruments in the undertakings' portfolio. An index is considered a single instrument and shall be reported. Identification code of the instrument underlying the derivative using the following priority:
If the underlying is an index then the code of the index shall be reported. |
C0100 | Type of code of asset or liability underlying the derivative | Type of ID Code used for the ‘Instrument underlying the derivative’ item. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used:
This item is not reported for derivatives which have as underlying more than one asset or liability. |
C0110 | Use of derivative | Describe the use of the derivative (micro/macro hedge, efficient portfolio management). Micro hedge refers to derivatives covering a single financial instrument (asset or liability), forecasted transaction or other liability. Macro hedge refers to derivatives covering a set of financial instruments (assets or liabilities), forecasted transactions or other liabilities. Efficient portfolio management refers usually to operations where the manager wishes to improve a portfolio' income by exchanging a (lower) cash–flow pattern by another with a higher value, using a derivative or set of derivatives, without changing the asset' portfolio composition, having a lower investment amount and less transaction costs. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used:
|
C0120 | Notional amount of the derivative | The amount covered or exposed to the derivative. For futures and options corresponds to contract size multiplied by the trigger value and by the number of contracts reported in that line. For swaps and forwards it corresponds to the contract amount of the contracts reported in that line. The notional amount refers to the amount that is being hedged/invested (when not covering risks). If several trades occur, it shall be the net amount at the reporting date. |
C0130 | Buyer/Seller | Only for futures and options, swaps and credit derivatives contracts (currency, credit and securities swaps). Identify whether the derivative contract was bought or sold. The buyer and seller position for swaps is defined relatively to the security or notional amount and the swap flows. A seller of a swap owns the security or notional amount at the contract inception and agrees to deliver during the contract term that security or notional amount, including any other outflows related to the contract, when applicable. A buyer of a swap will own the security or the notional amount at the end of the derivatives contact and will receive during the contract term that security or notional amount, including any other inflows related to the contract, when applicable. One of the options in the following closed list shall be used, with the exception of Interest Rate Swaps:
For interest rate swaps one of the options in the following closed list shall be use:
|
C0140 | Premium paid to date | The payment made (if bought), for options and also up–front and periodical premium amounts paid for swaps, since inception. |
C0150 | Premium received to date | The payment received (if sold), for options and also up–front and periodical premium amounts received for swaps, since inception. |
C0160 | Profit and loss to date | Amount of profit and loss arising from the derivative since inception, realised at the closing/maturing date. Corresponds to the difference between the value (price) at sale date and the value (price) at acquisition date. This amount could be positive (profit) or negative (loss). |
C0170 | Number of contracts | Number of similar derivative contracts reported in the line. For Over–The–Counter derivatives, e.g., one swap contract, 1 shall be reported, if ten swaps with the same characteristics, 10 shall be reported. The number of contracts shall be the ones entered into and that were closed at the reporting date. |
C0180 | Contract size | Number of underlying assets in the contract (e.g. for equity futures it is the number of equities to be delivered per derivative contract at maturity, for bond futures it is the reference amount underlying each contract). The way the contract size is defined varies according with the type of instrument. For futures on equities it is common to find the contract size defined as a function of the number of shares underlying the contract. For futures on bonds, it is the bond nominal amount underlying the contract. Only applicable for futures and options. |
C0190 | Maximum loss under unwinding event | Maximum amount of loss if an unwinding event occurs. Applicable to CIC category F. |
C0200 | Swap outflow amount | Amount delivered under the swap contract (other than premiums), during the reporting period. Corresponds to interest paid for IRS and amounts delivered for currency swaps, credit swaps, total return swaps and other swaps. In the cases where the settlement is made on a net basis then only one of the items C0200 and C0210 shall be reported. |
C0210 | Swap inflow amount | Amount received under the swap contract (other than premiums), during the reporting period. Corresponds to interest received for IRS and amounts received for currency swaps, credit swaps, total return swaps and other swaps. In the cases where the settlement is made on a net basis then only one of the items C0200 and C0210 shall be reported. |
C0220 | Initial date | Identify the ISO 8601 (yyyy–mm–dd) code of the date when obligations under the contract come into effect. When various trades occur for the same derivative, report only the one regarding the first trade date of the derivative and only one row for each derivative (no different rows for each trade) reflecting the total amount invested in that derivative considering the different dates of trade. In case of novation, the novation date becomes the trade date for that derivative. |
C0230 | Solvency II value | Value of the derivative calculated as defined by Article 75 of the Directive 2009/138/EC as of the trade (closing or sale) or maturity date. It can be positive, negative or zero. |
