1 GENERAL REPORTING FIELDS
The following data reporting fields must be completed, where applicable, for all reportable transactions and submitted in a prescribed format.
Data reporting field |
Code (where applicable) |
Notes |
Reference number of product provider |
6 or 723 digit number |
This field must contain the firm reference number of the firm providing the data report. Where a firm which is a P2P platform operator submits a report in relation to a home finance product in line with SUP 16.11.8-AR, the reference number of the product provider is the reference number of the P2P platform operator. |
Reference number of firm23 that sold the product |
6 or 723 digit number |
This field must contain the firm reference number (FRN) of the firm which sold the product. For a firm’s own direct sales, enter the firm’s own FRN. Where a firm which is a P2P platform operator submits a report in relation to a home finance product in line with SUP 16.11.8-AR, the reference number of the firm that sold the product is the reference number of the P2P platform operator, unless a separate intermediary was also involved. For sales via an intermediary enter the intermediary’s FRN. Where the intermediary is an appointed representative, the FRN of the appointed representative must be reported. |
Transaction reference (regulated credit agreements and relevant regulated credit agreements23 only) |
Numeric / Alphanumeric |
A unique reference for the transaction, internal to the reporting firm, that will enable the firm to provide the FCA with more information concerning the transaction if required, e.g. the account number, application number etc. In respect of relevant regulated credit agreements only, this should not include a natural person’s name or a derivation of their name23. |
Advice at point of sale |
Y = advised N = non advised |
For reporting purposes non- advised includes execution only and direct offer transactions. |
Reference number of the intermediary’s principal or network |
6 or 723 digit number |
This field only applies if the sale has been made by an intermediary who has a principal or is part of a network. Report the FRN23 of the intermediary’s principal or network, where they have one. The FRN of the intermediary who sold the product should not be reported here, but in the field ‘Reference number of firm that sold the product’ above. |

(c) Mortgages
The following data reporting fields must be completed, where applicable for all relevant regulated mortgage contracts except any second charge regulated mortgage contract that is entered into before 1 April 2017 and any regulated mortgage contract which is a legacy CCA mortgage contract:
Notes:
- (1)
All amounts should be expressed in £ (regardless of the currency in which the loan is advanced) and converted as necessary.
- (2)
In the case of mixed interest rate options/combination mortgages or where the loan is otherwise split into more than one part, a reporting field should be completed by reference to the largest portion of the overall mortgage balance unless otherwise stated.
- (3)
[deleted]
- (4)
Where a field is to be completed by reference to a person or persons as “first borrower”, “second borrower” or “third and subsequent borrowers”, all other fields containing that term should be completed by reference to the same person or persons as are identified as the first borrower, second borrower or third and subsequent borrowers as the case may be.
- (5)
A guarantor should be treated as a borrower where their income has been taken into account in the affordability assessment.
- (6)
Performance data should continue to be reported until the account in relation to the loan (or in relation to the final part of the loan outstanding) is closed or there is only a nominal balance outstanding on the account (i.e. where a mortgage account remains open with a nominal balance for administrative reasons). In the case of repossession, it is expected that the relevant account would be closed when the property is sold unless there is a sale shortfall. Where there is a sale shortfall, it is expected that this would take place on discharge of the amount of the shortfall (whether by or on behalf of the borrower or otherwise).
- (7)
Where a date to be inserted in a reporting field in a performance data report would be before 1 January 2015, firms may insert either the earlier date or 1 January 2015.
- (8)
In this Annex:
(a) a “further advance” means a further loan to an existing borrower of the firm and which is secured on the same property, whether under a new mortgage contract, or by variation to an existing mortgage contract. A “further advance” includes a loan secured by a second or subsequent charge where the firm has the benefit of the first charge (or other charge ranking in priority to that on which the further advance is secured); and
(b) an “internal product transfer” means where a borrower under a regulated mortgage contract does not change lender but transfers internally to a different mortgage product, or renews their existing product, with no additional borrowing (other than product fees or arrangement fees added to the outstanding amount), whether or not the transfer involves a new regulated mortgage contract.
Data reporting field |
Code (where applicable) |
Notes |
Sales Data (report for all regulated mortgage contracts ) |
||
Date of mortgage transaction |
DD/MM/YYYY |
Date of mortgage completion or draw-down of the funds. In the case of an internal product transfer or other internal remortgage, this should be the date the new account is opened, or the rate change or product switch is effected. |
Original transaction reference |
Numeric / Alphanumeric |
Only report this data element where there is a further advance or an internal product transfer or other internal remortgage. Report the transaction reference of the mortgage when originally reported. If the mortgage is an internal remortgage or the result of a series of internal remortgages, report the transaction reference of the earliest predecessor mortgage in that series. If that predecessor mortgage predates sales data reporting (i.e. the original mortgage transaction pre-dates 1 April 2005), report “predates”. If the transaction reference to be reported is not known, report “unknown”. |
Date of original mortgage transaction |
DD/MM/YYYY |
Only report this data element where there is a further advance or an internal product transfer or other internal remortgage. Report the date of the mortgage transaction when originally reported. If the mortgage is an internal remortgage or the result of a series of internal remortgages, report the transaction date of the earliest predecessor mortgage in that series. If that predecessor mortgage predates sales data reporting (i.e. the original mortgage transaction pre-dates 1 April 2005), or the date to be reported is not known, report “01/01/1900”. |
How the sale was made |
F = direct face-to-face T = direct telephone E = direct internet P = direct post O = direct other I = intermediary |
Report how the sale was made. ‘Direct’ refers to sales made by the product provider. ‘Direct internet’ includes direct sales made via email or other electronic means of communication. ‘Intermediary’ refers to sales made by an intermediary. Where a sale has been made through more than one method, e.g., telephone and then post, report the channel where the product choice was made. |
Interest rate type |
01 = fixed rate 02 = discounted variable rate 04 = capped rate 05 = standard variable rate 06 = BoE base rate tracker 07 = LIBOR tracker 08 = other tracker O = other |
Enter the relevant code If none of the existing codes apply enter sale as ‘99’ to denote ‘other’. Only 1 code can be entered Examples of ‘other’ include managed variable rates which are not standard variable rates, and individually negotiated variable rates. |
Date incentivised rate ends |
DD/MM/YYYY |
Report for any product where an initial incentivised rate later moves to a reversion rate. For example, fixed, capped, tracker or discounted rates where the customer is paying an incentivised rate for a set period. Where there are several incentivised rates, e.g. a fixed rate, followed by a tracker rate, which then reverts to a standard variable rate (SVR), report the date when the rate reverts to the SVR. When an incentivised rate lasts for the full term of the mortgage, e.g. a lifetime tracker, or a fixed rate that lasts for the full term, report the end of term date. |
Type of reversion rate |
01 = fixed rate 02 = discount 04 = capped rate 05 = standard variable rate 06 = BoE base rate tracker 07 = LIBOR tracker 08 = other tracker 98 = not applicable 99 = other |
Enter the relevant code. If none of the existing codes apply enter sale as ‘99’ to denote ‘other’. Only 1 code can be entered. Examples of ‘other’ include managed variable rates which are not standard variable rates (SVR), and individually negotiated variable rates. If there is no reversion rate, e.g. for mortgages sold on a SVR, or a rate that is fixed for the term, report ‘98’ to denote ‘not applicable’. |
Type of mortgage |
SA = shared appreciation mortgage SO = shared ownership mortgage BM = business loan BL = bridging loan FA = further advance under an existing mortgage contract FN = further advance under a new mortgage contract GM = guarantor mortgage HN = loan to a high net worth mortgage customer BR = buy-to-let mortgage (regulated) LO = low start mortgage PT = internal product transfer RI = retirement interest-only mortgage SB = self-build mortgage SE = secured overdraft SC = second charge regulated mortgage contract VN = contract variation with no affordability assessment NA = not applicable |
Use code to indicate mortgage type. Report all relevant codes. Report ‘NA’ to denote ‘not applicable’ where codes do not apply. Report ‘FA’ for a further advance under the same mortgage contract. Report ‘FN’ for a further advance under a new mortgage contract. Report a ‘guarantor mortgage’ where the income of a guarantor has been included in the affordability assessment. Report a ‘low start mortgage’ where payments are made on an interest-only basis for a set period at the start of the mortgage, but payments contractually revert to a repayment basis after this set period. Report ‘PT’ for an internal product transfer. Report ‘SC’ for a second charge regulated mortgage contract. Where relevant, report both ‘FN’ and ‘SC’ where the firm is entering into a second charge regulated mortgage contract and the borrower also has amounts owing to the firm secured by a first charge on the property, or ‘FA’ and ‘SC’ where there is a further advance under a second charge regulated mortgage contract. Where there is an internal product transfer on a second charge regulated mortgage contract, report ‘PT’ and ‘SC’. Report ‘VN’ for contract variations that result in a new regulated mortgage contract, where no affordability assessment has been undertaken in accordance with MCOB 11.6. Where relevant, report as both ‘VN’ and ‘PT’. Report ‘L’ if the mortgage is a lifetime mortgage of the type described in MCOB 9.4.132AR. |
Mortgage characteristics |
SE = mortgage with shared equity scheme loan attached MI = mortgage with indemnity insurance attached CB = cashback FF = flexible features (allowing overpayments and underpayments) OS = offset positive and/or negative balances EL = a second charge regulated mortgage contract that is a shared equity credit agreement RM = a remortgage under MCOB 11.9 which does not extend into retirement RR = a remortgage under MCOB 11.9 which extends into retirement NA = not applicable |
Use code to indicate additional mortgage characteristics if applicable. Report all relevant codes. Report ‘NA’ to denote ‘not applicable’ where codes do not apply. ‘Cashback’ should only be reported where it is not being provided as an incentive to pay legal costs and valuation fees. ‘RM’ or ‘RR’ should be used where the mortgage lender has relied on any of the rules in MCOB 11.9 (Remortgaging with the same or a different lender with no additional borrowing) in relation to the regulated mortgage contract. ‘RR’ should be used if the term of the proposed regulated mortgage contract extends beyond the date on which the customer (or, where there are joint borrowers, one of them) expects to retire or, where that date is not known, will reach the state pension age; otherwise, ‘RM’ should be used. See SUP 16 Annex 20G Part 2 Mortgages table (b) for further explanation of these mortgage characteristics. |
Was this mortgage advanced under a government supported initiative? |
Yes No |
Report whether the mortgage was advanced under a government supported initiative, e.g. through provision of a shared equity loan or indemnity insurance. In the case of an internal product transfer, do not report this data element. |
Post code of the mortgaged property |
e.g. XY45 6XX |
Report the post code of the mortgaged property. For new build/self build properties only, firms may report only the first half of the postcode, e.g. XY45, if the full postcode has not yet been assigned. For all other properties, the full postcode of the property must be reported, e.g. XY45 6XX. |
Type of borrower |
F = first time buyer M = home movers (2nd or subsequent buyers) I = internal remortgagors R = external remortgagors C = council/ registered social landlord tenant exercising their right to buy O = other |
Use code to indicate type of borrower. A mortgage taken on a previously unencumbered property should be reported as a remortgage. Only 1 code should be entered. Report ‘O’ for lifetime mortgages, bridging loans, further advances and second charge regulated mortgage contracts that are not for remortgage purposes. Report ‘I’ for internal product transfers and other internal remortgages (including those done through a contract variation rather than by entering into a new contract). Report ‘R’ for all other remortgages. |
Method of repayment |
C = capital and interest I = interest-only M = mix of ‘capital and interest’ and ‘interest-only’ |
Use code to indicate method of mortgage repayment. Only one code should be entered. Report low start mortgages (i.e. mortgages where payments are made on an interest-only basis for a set period at the start of the mortgage, but payments contractually revert to a repayment basis after this set period) as interest-only. For a lifetime mortgage of the type described in MCOB 9.4.132AR, if the initial repayments are on a capital and interest basis report ‘M’; in all other circumstances report ‘I’. |
Repayment strategy for interest-only and mixed mortgages |
E = endowment P = pension S = savings or investments (other than endowments and pensions) M = sale of mortgaged property B = sale of other property (e.g. buy-to-let or second home) A = sale of other asset C = occasional payments from income R = repaid by capital and interest (for low start mortgages) F = refinancing (for bridging loans) O = other repayment strategy |
Report where any part of the mortgage has been advanced on an interest-only basis. Where there is more than one repayment strategy, report all. For a lifetime mortgage of the type described in MCOB 9.4.132AR, report both ‘L’ and ‘C’. In the case of an internal product transfer, do not report this data element. |
For mixed mortgages, the percentage that is on an interest-only basis |
Numeric |
Report the percentage of the loan on an interest-only basis for mixed mortgages (i.e. mortgages that are a mix of capital and interest and interest-only). |
Is this an interest roll-up mortgage? |
Yes No |
Report ‘Yes’ where all or part of the loan is on an interest roll-up basis. Also report ‘Yes’ if the mortgage is of the type described in MCOB 9.4.132AR. |
Term of mortgage in months |
Numeric |
Report the mortgage term in months. For an internal product transfer or other internal remortgage, or for a further advance, report the remaining term at the time of the transfer, remortgage or advance. Where the loan is split into more than one part, report the term applying to the largest part of the loan. |
Size of loan |
Numeric £ |
The original balance when the mortgage was completed. For an internal product transfer, report the balance immediately after the transfer. For a further advance, report the size of the advance. This amount should include fees and charges added to the loan. |
Market value of the mortgaged property |
Numeric £ |
Report the market value of the mortgaged property represented as a sterling equivalent amount. The value reported should be based on the surveyor’s valuation, a valuation index, or other method that the product provider used to determine the market value. In the case of staged construction or self build schemes, value means ‘expected final value of property at the time the lending decision is made’. In the case of an internal product transfer, do not report this data element. |
Type of valuation at origination of mortgage |
I = internal inspection E = external inspection only, including drive-by A = automated valuation model, indexed or desktop valuation O = other N = no valuation carried out |
Report the type of valuation undertaken to obtain the market value of the mortgaged property. An internal inspection is where a valuer has carried out an internal inspection of the property. An external inspection is where the property has been inspected (including by drive-by inspection), but without an internal inspection of the property. In the case of an internal product transfer, do not report this data element. |
The total amount owed by the borrower to the firm and secured on the property immediately prior to the new borrowing |
Numeric £ |
For a new mortgage contract, report the total amount owing to the firm and secured on the property that is outstanding immediately prior to the mortgage advance. For a further advance under an existing regulated mortgage contract (which constitutes a variation to that mortgage contract), report the amount owed to the firm and secured on the property immediately prior to the making of that further advance. Where there is a further advance under an existing regulated mortgage contract which is a second charge regulated mortgage contract, report the amount owed to the firm and secured on the property immediately prior to the making of that further advance. This data element is not limited to amounts secured by regulated mortgage contracts, but includes any borrowing secured on the property. In the case of an internal product transfer, do not report this data element. |
For a second charge regulated mortgage contract, the total amount owed by the borrower to third parties secured on the property |

In the case of an internal product transfer, do not report this data element. |
The purpose of a further advance, second charge regulated mortgage contract or extra money withdrawn for remortgages |
H = home improvements D = debt consolidation O = other |

After the account has been closed, no further reporting is required. |
Current amount of payment shortfall |

(f) Relevant regulated credit agreements
The following data reporting fields must be completed, where applicable, for all relevant regulated credit agreements.
A non-threshold short-term loan firm is not required to complete these data reporting fields.
Notes:
- (1)
A firm must provide sales data returns in respect of both relevant regulated credit agreements executed during the reporting period and relevant regulated credit agreements for which the firm is assigned legal ownership of the lender’s rights and duties under the regulated credit agreement during the reporting period.
- (2)
A firm must provide performance data returns in respect of relevant regulated credit agreements which are extant during any part of the reporting period and in respect of which the firm is exercising, or has the right to exercise, the lender’s rights and duties.
- (3)
A firm must provide back-book data in respect of relevant regulated credit agreements which are extant on the first day of the firm’s first reporting period and in respect of which the firm is exercising, or has the right to exercise, the lender’s rights and duties. This requirement does not extend to agreements executed on the first day of the firm’s first reporting period within the meaning of SUP 16.11.3R(2A).
- (4)
Relevant regulated credit agreements include agreements which modify or novate agreements entered into during previous reporting periods.
- (5)
A firm must continue to report performance data until:
- (a)
the regulated credit agreement is cancelled;
- (b)
no amount remains to be paid by the borrower under the regulated credit agreement;
- (c)
the firm is no longer the legal owner of the lender’s rights and duties under the regulated credit agreement; or
- (d)
enforcement of the regulated credit agreement is statute barred.
- (a)
- (6)
The regulated credit agreement should continue to be reported in the performance data for the reporting period during which the reason to cease reporting performance data occurred. The reason for ceasing to report performance data must be included in the final submission.
Sales data |
A sales data report must include data in respect of: • all relevant regulated credit agreements executed during the reporting period; and • all relevant regulated credit agreements in respect of which the lender’s rights and duties under the regulated credit agreement were assigned to the reporting firm during the reporting period. A relevant regulated credit agreement executed during the reporting period includes: • a new relevant regulated credit agreement; • a modified agreement, being a relevant regulated credit agreement which, in respect of a relevant regulated credit agreement that was executed before the beginning of the reporting period, revoked that previous agreement and contains provisions which are modifications or variations of that previous agreement; and • a novated agreement, being a relevant regulated credit agreement which, in respect of a relevant regulated credit agreement that was executed before the beginning of the reporting period, novated that agreement to change the identity of the lender. The transaction reference reported for each relevant regulated credit agreement in a sales data report must be unique in all sales data reports. Any transaction reference reported for a relevant regulated credit agreement in a sales data report must not have been reported for another relevant regulated credit agreement in the back-book data report. The same transaction reference reported for each relevant regulated credit agreement in a sales data report must be used for the same relevant regulated credit agreement in all performance data reports which include data in respect of that relevant regulated credit agreement. Purpose of the sales data report The sales data report will allow the FCA to understand different aspects of new relevant regulated credit agreements entered into by the reporting firm, and to provide contextualising information for the performance data reports in relation to these relevant regulated credit agreements. Interpreting the data elements Not all data elements must be reported for all relevant regulated credit agreements. The validations for when data elements must, or must not, be reported are detailed in the data reference guide for the sales data report. The data element reference codes can be used to cross-refer between the Handbook and the data reference guide, as well as other supporting documentation. These validations often relate to data elements specific to certain types of relevant regulated credit agreements - most notably, the difference between relevant regulated credit agreements under which the facility is fixed-sum credit or running-account credit. Many data elements do not need to be reported for a relevant regulated credit agreement which replaces an earlier agreement by novation of the earlier agreement to change the lender, or for which the legal ownership of the regulated credit agreement was assigned to the reporting firm. |

A variation of a regulated credit agreement which does not require the use of a modifying agreement must not be reported in the sales data report. Such a regulated credit agreement should continue to be reported in the performance data report. If the regulated credit agreement has replaced an earlier agreement but a modifying agreement was not used, this must not be recorded as ‘A: Modified agreement’. B: Novated agreement The regulated credit agreement replaces an earlier agreement by novation of the earlier agreement to change the lender. C: Legal ownership assigned The legal ownership of the regulated credit agreement has been assigned to the reporting firm. X: None of these The origination of the regulated credit agreement is not one of the specific options above. |

Performance data |
|||
The performance data report must include data in respect of all relevant regulated credit agreements which are extant during the reporting period and in respect of which the reporting firm exercises, or has the right to exercise, the lender’s rights and duties. This must include any relevant regulated credit agreements: • which were executed during the reporting period and the reporting firm was the lender under the regulated credit agreement when it was executed; or • for which the legal ownership of the regulated credit agreement was assigned to the reporting firm during the reporting period. A firm must continue to report performance data in relation to a relevant regulated credit agreement until: • the agreement is cancelled; • no amount remains to be paid by the borrower under the regulated credit agreement; • the reporting firm is no longer the legal owner of the lender’s rights and duties under the agreement; or • enforcement of the agreement becomes statute barred. A relevant regulated credit agreement should be reported in the performance data report for the reporting period during which the reason to cease reporting performance data occurred. The reason for ceasing to report performance data must be included in this performance data report. Purpose of the performance data report The performance data report will allow the FCA to understand the performance and outcomes of relevant regulated credit agreements. In particular, this includes data elements in relation to the statements in respect of running-account credit and the scheduled repayments in respect of fixed-sum credit. The same transaction reference reported for each relevant regulated credit agreement in a performance data report must match the transaction reference reported in the sales data report or back-book data report which included data in respect of that relevant regulated credit agreement. Interpreting the data elements Not all data elements must be reported for all relevant regulated credit agreements. The validations for when data elements must, or must not, be reported are detailed in the data reference guide for the performance data report. The data element reference codes can be used to cross-refer between the Handbook and the data reference guide, as well as other supporting documentation. These validations often relate to data elements specific to certain types of relevant regulated credit agreements - most notably, the difference between relevant regulated credit agreements under which the facility is fixed-sum credit or running-account credit. Some data elements do not need to be reported, or must be reported in a different way, for a relevant regulated credit agreement in respect of which a default notice has taken effect. |

Accounting period repeatable data elements References to an ‘accounting period’ have the same meaning as in the Consumer Credit (Running-Account Credit Information) Regulations 1983. For a regulated credit agreement which provides running-account credit, certain data elements must be provided for each accounting period which ended during the reporting period. The submission method will allow these data elements to be repeated. • Data element 55A, ‘RA Accounting period end date (the statement date)’, will be the unique identifier for a set of accounting period data elements. • For a regulated credit agreement which is not in default, an ‘accounting period’ should also include any final period ending with the date associated with data element 4A, ‘Reason for ceasing to submit performance data for this agreement’ – that is: o 29A, ‘Date agreement ceased to have effect’; o 40A, ‘Date of assignment of legal ownership’; or o 45A, ‘Date agreement recorded as statute barred’. • A separate set of data elements are required for any period after a default notice had taken effect for the regulated credit agreement. If a default notice took effect during the reporting period, a set of accounting period data elements should be provided for any accounting periods which ended during the reporting period prior to the date the default notice took effect. • A separate set of data elements are required if no accounting periods ended during the reporting period. • If the reporting firm is unable to determine whether an accounting period ended during the reporting period, the reporting firm should provide a single set of accounting period data elements covering the whole reporting period, or, if relevant, the portion of the reporting period from the date the regulated credit agreement was executed and until any date associated with data element 4A, ‘Reason for ceasing to submit performance data for this agreement’. • The accounting period end date determines whether the data elements for an accounting period must be provided for a reporting period: o Data provided in respect of an accounting period which ended during the reporting period may include activity which took place before the start of the reporting period. o Data should not be provided in respect of an accounting period which started during the reporting period and is ongoing at the end of a reporting period. • Accounting periods should not overlap. The data reporting field names for data elements which relate to accounting periods are prefixed by ‘RA’. The accounting period data elements cover the status of the regulated credit agreement on the statement date and activity which took place during the accounting period. Certain subsets of these data elements, which relate to different drawdown types and penalty charges, are repeatable within each set of accounting period data elements. |

For the first scheduled repayment the ‘scheduled repayment period’ means the period starting on the day the regulated credit agreement was executed and ending on the first scheduled repayment date. For a regulated credit agreement which includes fixed-sum credit with specified scheduled repayment dates, certain data elements must be provided for each scheduled repayment period which ended during the reporting period. The submission method will allow these data elements to be repeated. • Data element 86A, ‘FS Scheduled repayment date’, will be the unique identifier for a set of scheduled repayment period data elements. • For a regulated credit agreement which is not in default, a ‘scheduled repayment period’ should also include any final period ending with the date associated with 4A, ‘Reason for ceasing to submit performance data for this agreement’ – that is: o 29A, ‘Date agreement ceased to have effect’; o 40A, ‘Date of assignment of legal ownership’; or o 45A, ‘Date agreement recorded as statute barred’. • A separate set of data elements are required for any period after a default notice had taken effect for the regulated credit agreement. If a default notice took effect during the reporting period, a set of scheduled repayment period data elements should be provided for any scheduled repayment periods which ended during the reporting period prior to the date the default notice took effect. • A separate set of data elements are required if the regulated credit agreement has specified scheduled repayment dates but no scheduled repayment periods ended during the reporting period. • If the regulated credit agreement provides fixed-sum credit but does not have specified scheduled repayment dates, or the reporting firm is unable to determine whether a scheduled repayment period ended during the reporting period, the reporting firm should provide a single set of scheduled repayment period data elements covering the whole reporting period, or, if relevant, the portion of the reporting period from the date the regulated credit agreement was executed and until any date associated with data element 4A, ‘Reason for ceasing to submit performance data for this agreement’. • The scheduled repayment date determines whether the data elements for a scheduled repayment period must be provided for a reporting period: o Data provided in respect of a scheduled repayment period which ended during the reporting period may include activity which took place before the start of the reporting period. o Data should not be provided in respect of a scheduled repayment period which started during the reporting period and is ongoing at the end of a reporting period. • Scheduled repayment periods should not overlap. The data reporting field names for data elements which relate to scheduled repayment periods are prefixed by ‘FS’. The scheduled repayment period data elements cover the status of the regulated credit agreement on the scheduled repayment date and activity which took place during the scheduled repayment period. Certain subsets of these data elements, which relate to penalty charges, are repeatable within each set of scheduled repayment period data elements. |

Back-book data |
|||
A single set of consumer credit product sales data is required to be submitted in a back-book data report. The same deadline applies to providing both the back-book data report and the performance data report at the end of the firm’s first reporting period. The back-book data report must include data in respect of all relevant regulated credit agreements which: • will be included in the performance data report for the reporting firm’s first reporting period; and • will not be included in the sales data report for the reporting firm’s first reporting period. Data in respect of a relevant regulated credit agreement executed before the start of a reporting firm’s first reporting period must not be included in a back-book data report if: • the agreement was cancelled; • no amount remains to be paid by the borrower under the regulated credit agreement; • the firm is no longer the legal owner of the lender’s rights and duties under the agreement; or • enforcement of the agreement became statute barred; Purpose of the back-book data report The back-book data report is intended to provide contextualising information for the performance data report in relation to relevant regulated credit agreements which have not been included in a sales data report. The transaction reference reported for each relevant regulated credit agreement in a back-book data report must be unique in that report. Any transaction reference reported for a relevant regulated credit agreement in a back-book data report must not be reported for another relevant regulated credit agreement in any sales data reports. The same transaction reference reported for each relevant regulated credit agreement in a back-book data report must be used for the same relevant regulated credit agreement in all performance data reports which include data in respect of that relevant regulated credit agreement. Interpreting the data elements Most of the data elements included in the back-book data report are a subset of the data elements included in the sales data report. Some data elements have additional ‘Unknown’ options to account for information a reporting firm may not hold for relevant regulated credit agreements executed prior to the firm’s first reporting period. Not all data elements must be reported for all relevant regulated credit agreements. The validations for when data elements must, or must not, be reported are detailed in the data reference guide for the back-book data report. The data element reference codes can be used to cross-refer between the Handbook and the data reference guide, as well as other supporting documentation. These validations often relate to data elements specific to certain types of relevant regulated credit agreements. Most notably, the difference between relevant regulated credit agreements under which the facility is fixed-sum credit or running-account credit. Many data elements do not need to be reported for relevant regulated credit agreements in respect of which a default notice has taken effect. Some data elements relate to information which may have changed after a relevant regulated credit agreement was executed. The notes will indicate whether the information should be reported to reflect the status on: • the day that the relevant regulated credit agreement was executed; • the day that the reporting firm was assigned the legal ownership of the relevant regulated credit agreement; or • the day before the start of the reporting firm’s first reporting period for the performance data report (‘the back-book reporting date’). |
