Can immediately accessible funds cover a specified stress reserve?

Use the populated dashboard to read the result, investigate its components and explore the stated decision assumptions. The workbook keeps the source figures and calculation steps available so another reviewer can trace the same selection.

Funding surplus across units

A required line percentage above 100% signals that the commitment is insufficient even with full drawability.

Liquidity stress

Reduce drawable credit by the selected haircut and increase the same-horizon stress outflows. Preserve the separate policy reserve.

Funding diagnostics

A required line percentage above 100% signals that the commitment is insufficient even with full drawability.

Move between the decision views

The analytical views include Dashboard, Liquidity stress, Funding diagnostics. Start with the overview, then use the relevant driver, register or scenario view to explain a difference. Keep the reporting context consistent when comparing an amount with its source or another operating unit.

How to adapt the dashboard

Start with the short How to worksheet, which identifies the inputs, selectors and result views for this dashboard. Keep an unchanged copy of the sample before replacing its data. Enter your source values in the highlighted cells, review one reporting selection and reconcile a headline amount to your records. Change a material driver and check the result in its labelled unit. A decision assumption describes a modelled case; it does not replace the observed source figures.

Understand the calculation basis

This is a static 30-day stress snapshot. Exclude borrowing proceeds already included in cash and avoid counting the policy reserve twice. Reduce drawable credit by the selected haircut and increase the same-horizon stress outflows. Preserve the separate policy reserve.

For a team review, record the selected period, operating unit, source of the inputs and the case assumptions alongside the conclusion. This context helps a colleague reproduce the result and distinguish a change in the business from a change in the modelling assumptions. The included sample is illustrative rather than company reporting.
