Financial entities must apply new calculation rules for account 70300000 when n=0, ensure account 70800000 matches procedural norms even if zero, and report accounts 451X0000 regardless of balance.

Monthly Accounting Information Regime. Minimum Capital Requirement and Integration (R.I. - C.M.). Adjustments.
___________________________________________________________________________ We address you to send you attached the sheets that must replace those in Section 5. of "Submission of Information to the Central Bank" pursuant to the provisions disseminated through Communication “A” 8196. In this regard, the following adjustments are highlighted:
In the event that no positive IB was recorded in any of the 3 periods of 12 months, it will be verified that the amount recorded in this item corresponds to what is indicated in point 5.1.2. of the NP for n = 0. Consequently, the amount to be reported in item 70300000 will correspond to the average of ERC of the 36 months prior to the reported period expressed in homogeneous currency of the month prior to that in which the calculation is made and the applicable limit will be reported through the respective item 3600000Y. The coefficient referred to in point 7.3. of the norms on “Minimum capital of financial entities” will be applied in this Institution.
5.2.1.12. The amount of item 70800000 must coincide with that resulting from applying the expression provided for in point 4.1.1. of the procedural norms. It will be recorded even if the resulting amount is zero.
5.2.1.13. The items that make up the RPC (items 702X0000) must be reported when amounts are registered in any of the items that make them up, according to the information model established in point 6.2. of the NP.
After the validation of the information, compliance with the limits established in point 6.3. of the cited norm will be verified. Failure to observe any of them will be considered non-compliance with minimum capital integration, in line with what is established in the last paragraph of point 8.5. of the norms on “Minimum capital of financial entities”.
5.2.1.14. For entities of group 2, which belong to the groups mentioned in point 5.1.3. of the NP, they must report one of the items 3600000Y when the following calculated relationship is verified (values re-expressed in homogeneous currency of the month prior to that in which the calculation is made):
[∑(70100000(n-1) + 8XX00000(n-1) + …+70100000(n-36)) / 36) * coef.] < 70300000(n) Where coef. = coefficient applicable to “B” or “C” Entities as provided for in points 5.1.3.2. and 5.1.3.3. as applicable. Calculations related to re-expression in homogeneous currency must be carried out with all decimals and rounded in the final result.
5.2.1.15. Items 451X0000 must always be reported, even if their balance is equal to zero.
5.2.1.16. Items 3613000X/M, 3612000X/M, 36110000/M, 3610000X/M and 3650000X must be recorded for each of the scenarios provided, and only for the required periods, according to point 5.1.1. of these instructions.
5.2.1.17. Item 38000000 must be recorded only for the required periods, according to point 5.1.1. of these instructions and the “Amount” field will be used to declare any of these values:
