CONTINuINg TO buILD ANZ’S gLObAL bRAND

Over the past three years, ANZ has built one of the region’s leading brands reflected in ANZ’s brand value increasing by 72% to US$5.8 billion (Brand Finance Banking Top 500) and ANZ being named the most valued banking brand in Australia in 2013.

This has been achieved through the introduction of an integrated and consistent brand communication platform across the region, the continued success of ANZ’s distinctive advertising program featuring Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) from the Mentalist and a renewed focus on leveraging major sponsorships such as the Australian Open and Shanghai Rolex Masters.

In 2013, ANZ’s association with tennis saw it reach 300 million viewers worldwide during the Australian Open – the

Grand Slam of the Asia Pacific region – and a further 70 million viewers at the Shanghai Rolex Masters, of which ANZ is a Diamond Partner as part of a new five year partnership.

ANZ’s sponsorship of the Shanghai Rolex Masters also extends to the ANZ Junior Tennis Program, a community program which has enabled hundreds of local children in Shanghai to learn the great sport of tennis.

As we look to 2014, ANZ will continue to develop its global brand campaign and we remain committed to delivering on our brand promise of helping our customers, staff, shareholders and communities progress. £

STRATEgY AND PERfORmANCE

Our aim is to be the best connected, most respected bank across the Asia Pacific region.

gOAL

ANZ is executing a focused strategy to build the best connected, most respected bank across the Asia Pacific region.

This goal is based on our belief that the future of our home markets of Australia and New Zealand are increasingly linked to the fast growing region of Asia through trade, capital and wealth flows. We also believe that people want a bank that understands their specific needs, and increasingly can meet these needs in more than one market through a variety of means.

By building a 'super-regional' bank, ANZ can better serve our customers and achieve superior financial returns over the longer term.

ANZ’s aspiration is to have 25 to 30% of ANZ Group profit after tax sourced from Asia Pacific, Europe and America, revenues by 2017. ANZ has made good progress towards this goal.

ACHIEVEmENTS

In 2013, management continued to focus on balancing the need for investment to meet the needs of our customers and drive longer-term growth, and the need to generate attractive returns for our shareholders in the near-term.

We are building stronger positions in our home markets of Australia and New Zealand, led by solid market share gains in Australian Retail and Commercial, emerging productivity benefits from our program of simplification in New Zealand, and improved penetration of Wealth products into our existing customer base.

Our Institutional business in Asia is growing quickly, focused on the fast-growing cross-border trade and capital flows, with particular emphasis on regional treasury centres like Hong Kong and Singapore, and products like Cash Management, Trade, Foreign Exchange and Debt

Capital Market. Returns in our Asian retail business are improving, with a focus on productivity, and building our deposit base and our brand across the region.

Our operations strategy is delivering economies of scale, speed to market and a stronger control environment, resulting in lower unit costs, better quality and lower risk. More generally, our business risk profile improved, with a continuing shift to investment-grade clients and shorter tenor Trade Finance, and greater earnings diversification across products and geographies.

Finally, we focused on strengthening management depth and the alignment between business, operations, support and technology.

PROgRESSINg

We are committed to delivering abovepeer earnings growth with strong capital and expense disciplines, targeting further productivity improvements over the next three years while increasing return on equity from current levels.

This will be achieved by strengthening our position in Australia and New Zealand, growing in Asia and sharing common technology, processes, products and services that are designed with our customers in mind. £

CHAIRmAN’S REPORT

A mESSAgE fROm JOHN mORSCHEL

I am pleased to report that ANZ’s statutory profit after tax for the 2013 financial year was $6.3 billion up 11%. This is a strong performance, the result of a distinctive long-term strategy focused on growth in our domestic franchises in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, and targeted expansion in Asia.

The final dividend of 91 cents brings the total dividend for the year to 164 cents per share fully franked, an increase of 13%. This will see us pay out $4.5 billion to shareholders, largely retail shareholders and superannuation funds.

ANZ is also delivering for shareholders over the medium term. Our total shareholder return for the past five years was 121%. This compares to 110% for the S&P/ASX 200 Banks Accumulation Index and 13% for the S&P/ASX200 Index as a whole.

We continue to operate from a strong financial position. ANZ is one of the best capitalised banks in the world with an increasingly high-quality balance sheet. A measure of this financial strength is that ANZ remains one of a small number of banks with a AA credit rating from all three ratings agencies.

DELIVERINg OuR STRATEgY

There continue to be significant growth opportunities for ANZ in our home markets of Australia and New Zealand. At the same time, Asia is now the key driver of global economic growth and the key driver of Australia and New Zealand’s growth. Our strategy involves a focus on profitable expansion in Asia through an integrated network connecting customers with faster growing trade, capital and wealth flows into and across the region. ANZ is the only Australian bank positioned to fully benefit from Asia’s growth.

The growth of our business in Australia, New Zealand and Asia Pacific is being supported by an enterprise approach to building the business on common platforms and processes to reduce unit costs, complexity and risk, and to improve our customer’s experience.

ANZ’s performance and the progress we made in delivering our strategy in 2013 are detailed in this Shareholder Review.

Notably, ANZ was again assessed the global banking sector leader in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI). This is the sixth year in the past seven that we have received this assessment. Building sustainability into the way we do business supports delivery of our strategy.

bOARD CHANgES

During the year, we completed a board transition with two directors, David Meiklejohn and Greg Clark, due to retire at the 2013 Annual General Meeting. Paula Dwyer joined the board in 2012 as part of a succession plan for David Meiklejohn and this year Graeme Liebelt joined to succeed Greg Clark. Graeme was previously Chief Executive Officer at Orica, a leading global mining services company.

On behalf of shareholders I would like to express our thanks to David and Greg for their enormous contribution to the board over the past nine years.

OuTLOOk

As we enter the 2014 financial year, the major economies in the United States, Europe and Japan are gradually strengthening. In emerging Asia growth rates are expected to remain above those in the major developed economies. China is well positioned with growth expected to be around 7.5% in 2014.

However, there continues to be volatility in global markets. In recent months this has been seen in response to an expectation that the US will begin to tighten monetary policy and the political impasse over the US fiscal position.

Australia and New Zealand remain in a strong position with improving consumer and business confidence and strong trade and investment links with Asia. The Australian and New Zealand economies are both expected to expand by around 2.5% in 2014.

ANZ’s super regional strategy means we are well-placed to benefit from the resilience of our home markets and the growth in Asia. Together with the expense and capital management disciplines we have in place, it means we are positioned to continue to deliver growth and performance to our shareholders in 2014.

Finally, I would like to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our management and staff who achieved so much in 2013. I would also like to express my thanks to my fellow Directors for their commitment and support during the year.

CEO’S REPORT A mESSAgE fROm mICHAEL SmITH

ANZ delivered a strong, high quality performance in 2013 demonstrating that our super regional strategy is creating a better bank for customers and a better bank for shareholders. Total shareholder return in 2013 was 32%.

Some highlights include the market share growth we achieved in key customer segments, particularly in Australia and Asia. Good progress was made with our focus on productivity which saw a further improvement in the cost-to-income ratio. We also invested $1.3 billion in Australia, New Zealand and Asia Pacific to produce growth and returns for the longer-term.

DIVISIONAL PERfORmANCE*

Looking at our Divisional performance, we continued to grow the already large franchises we have in our home markets of Australia and New Zealand.

In the Australia Division profit was up 11% with the strongest overall growth of the major Australian banks across home lending, deposits and credit cards. We also gained market share in commercial banking. Customer acquisition and loyalty is being driven through new digital applications such as ANZ goMoney,[TM] Australia’s most popular banking app with one million active users.

In the New Zealand Division profit in NZD was up 29% reflecting progress in simplifying the business, improving productivity and building share in core markets. The result also saw a significant improvement in provisions.

In the Global Wealth Division we are focused on cross-sell, simplification and digital innovation. Cash profit was up 36% with a highlight being an 11% increase in Wealth solutions held by ANZ customers. We also continued our profitable expansion in Asia through an integrated network that connects customers with faster growing regional capital, trade and wealth flows. Our International and Institutional Banking Division grew profit 15%, and Institutional Asia grew profit 28% driven by strong performances in Trade, Markets and Cash Management.

ANZ’s balance sheet strengthened in 2013 supported by management actions to create more diversity by product, by customer and by geography; and to provide greater quality and predictability through more exposure to investment grade and multi-national customers. Significant progress was made with our operations and technology strategy. The outcome was lower unit costs, better management of risk through standardisation, and stronger enterprise standards and controls. Notably, in 2013 we absorbed business volume increases of up to 12% while reducing operations expenses by 10%.

CORPORATE SuSTAINAbILITY

the greatest benefits for our customers, shareholders, people and communities. We have three areas of particular focus:

  • » Sustainable development. Integrating social and environmental considerations into our business decisions, products and services to help our customers achieve their sustainability ambitions and deliver long term value for all our stakeholders.

  • » Diversity and inclusion. Building the most diverse and inclusive workforce of any major bank in our region to help us innovate, identify new markets, connect with customers and make better, more informed decisions.

  • » financial inclusion and capability. Building the financial capability of people across our region to promote financial inclusion and progression of individuals and communities.

buILDINg ON OuR mOmENTum

Our super regional strategy is a long term strategy and our momentum in 2013 means we are confident ANZ can continue to perform well in the coming years.

We have set clear priorities within the bank to improve the customer experience, to diversify revenues, to drive productivity and to increase shareholder returns. As a result, we have set new targets to reduce the cost-to-income ratio from 44.8% to below 43% by the end of 2016 and to achieve a return on equity of above 16% over the same period.

These targets reflect the confidence we have that our super regional strategy can deliver on its promise to achieve marketleading outcomes for our shareholders, our customers and for the community.

Michael Smith, CEO

In 2013 we also made progress with our approach to Corporate Sustainability. By building sustainability into our business we can ensure that we achieve

buILDINg mONEY mANAgEmENT SkILLS AND SAVINgS CASE STuDY

For 10 years we have invested significantly in financial inclusion research, partnerships and programs to support people to build their money management skills and savings. This aligns with our brand promise “helping people progress”. Shafan, who moved to Australia three years ago, had never saved. After completing our Saver Plus program, Shafan has been steadily putting aside savings towards his home deposit. Saver Plus is one of the longest running,

largest matched savings programs in the world. Participants receive financial education, personal coaching and matched savings up to $500. Over 5,000 people have participated in Saver Plus this year. “I feel a great sense of achievement and am very proud and confident,” said Shafan. “Without Saver Plus, I am not sure I could have achieved this.”

Our other two financial education programs are MoneyMinded, Australia’s most widely-used adult financial literacy

program and MoneyBusiness, which is designed to build money management skills, confidence and a savings culture among Indigenous Australians.

As part of ANZ’s “ Banking on Australia ” $1.5 billion investment program, we have committed $20 million to help further build money management skills and savings for vulnerable Australians and support our local communities to progress. £

Customers in Papua New Guinea, Samoa and the Solomon Islands are now able to do their banking using their mobile phones, accessing cash services through accredited and trained ANZ goMoney™ merchants.

Up to 75% of people in the region don’t have access to traditional banking services, but around 85% of people aged 15 to 60 own a mobile phone.

Glenda Kenga in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, was one of the first customers to register with ANZ goMoney.™ Previously “unbanked,” she now pays for goods and deposits and withdraws money at the ANZ goMoney™ merchant just across the road from her market stall. Customers can

also buy mobile phone credit, transfer money and check their account balance and transaction history.

Promoting financial inclusion in the Pacific is a priority for ANZ, particularly for customers in remote and rural areas. Since launching ANZ goMoney™ in the region in June 2013, 36,748 customers have registered. £

Customers are now seeing faster and smoother approvals processes.

buSINESS PROfILE

In New Zealand, ANZ has been through the biggest change in its more than 170 years in the country.

In October 2012 the bank completed its merger of ANZ and The National Bank by putting all customers onto one computer platform – probably New Zealand’s largest business technology project.

Since then the "new" ANZ has moved rapidly to take advantage of the one brand and system for all its customers. Market share in key areas such as mortgages and small business banking has increased, customer consideration has lifted, staff engagement is at a record high and the cost to income ratio of the business has dropped.

Customers are now seeing faster and smoother approvals processes and service and have access to more specialists than ever before.

In the community ANZ continued to make a difference to the lives of many New Zealanders – from the drought relief package for farmers and the sponsorship of many initiatives across economy-critical industries, to the donations and support given to hundreds of charities and nongovernment organisations nationwide.

All of this means that ANZ is performing better than it ever has in a financial and non-financial sense, with still more to come in future.

buSINESS HIgHLIgHTS*

  • » Created over 250 full service branches – the most of any bank – servicing about 82% of New Zealand with a presence in eight more communities nationwide. ANZ now also has the most ATMs, 706, and the most mobile mortgage managers, 75. There are now 31 Insurance Specialists and 14 Wealth Specialists supporting frontline teams.

  • » As leaders in the agri sector we’ve created an in-depth online information hub for customers that highlights products, insights and local people to support their businesses. Thanks to ANZ some 360 people established their first farming business during the year. As a result of all this, ANZ has won CANSTAR Agribusiness of the Year for a second consecutive year.

  • » Published industry leading and award winning plain English investment statements so customers can more easily understand what is happening with their investments. An ANZ retirement hub – FutureWise – has been set up online to help customers plan for their retirement and customers can check their KiwiSaver accounts online.

  • » Launched an online ANZ insurance hub to help customers better understand recent changes to how insurances are calculated.

  • » Supported the government’s migrant investor scheme to help investors apply for entry to New Zealand.

  • » Launched ANZ Transactive Mobile for Android and iPhone devices allowing customers to remotely monitor realtime account balances, view current and prior-day transactions, approve and release payments, and obtain dynamic FX rates.

  • » Partnered with the Solomon Group Education and Training Academy to deliver MoneyMinded, ANZ’s flagship financial education programme.

  • » Released our third “ANZ Financial Knowledge and Behaviour Survey” with the Commission for Financial Literacy and Retirement Income following previous research in 2005 and 2009. £

  • All figures on a cash basis unless noted otherwise.

  • » Some 53% of ANZ branches now have a Business Banking Manager, adding 5,500 new business banking customers and opening 10,000 start-up accounts.

  • » Sale of EFTPOS New Zealand.

An ANZ New Zealand project has identified a combination of farming practices that successfully generate high performing, environmentally sustainable and profitable dairy farms. These farms employ a formal decision making process, clear objectives, a focus on profit and costs, maximum growth, minimal waste and a risk mitigation strategy.

The findings are helping our dairy customers understand how to increase profitability and address economic and environmental challenges through applying intensive farming technologies. Commercial & Agri employee Edwina Askew commented “The project has helped us better understand the industry and look at how we can provide services relevant to future demand.”

New Zealand’s agricultural exports are predicted to increase by NZ$550 billion over the next 40 years. Dairy, New Zealand’s biggest industry, faces economic and environmental challenges impacting on continued growth. Many of New Zealand’s 8,000 dairy farms are considering ways to intensify their production methods.

1 Since 1 October 2012, the Group has used Cash Profit as a measure of the result of the ongoing business activities of the Group enabling shareholders to assess Group and divisional performance against prior periods and against peer institutions. For 2013 and 2012 statutory profit has been adjusted for non-core items to arrive at Cash Profit. For 2009 – 2011 statutory profit has been adjusted for non-core items to arrive at Underlying Profit, which like Cash Profit, is a measure of the ongoing business performance of the Group but used somewhat different criteria for the adjusting items. Neither Cash Profit nor Underlying Profit are audited; however, the external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that the adjustments have been determined on a consistent basis across each period presented.[2] The reporting treatment of derivative related collateral posted/received and the associated interest income/expense changed in 2012 and 2011 comparatives were restated. The 2009 and 2010 comparative information has not been restated.[3] The 2010 year onwards includes assets resulting from the acquisition of ANZ Wealth Australia, OnePath NZ, Landmark Financial Services and certain assets from the Royal Bank of Scotland.[4] Calculated in accordance with APRA Basel 3 requirements for 2013 and 2012. Comparatives for 2009 to 2011 are calculated on an APRA Basel 2 basis.[5] ANZ’s interpretation of the regulations documented in the Basel Committee publications “Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems” (June 2011) and “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards” (June 2006).[6] Average ordinary equity excludes non-controlling interests and preference shares.[7] Includes branches, offices, representative offices and agencies.[8] Excludes employees whose only ANZ shares are held in trust under ANZ employee share scheme.

REmuNERATION OVERVIEW

THE fOLLOWINg PROVIDES A SummARY Of THE REmuNERATION fOR THE CHIEf ExECuTIVE OffICER (CEO) AND DISCLOSED ExECuTIVES – kEY mANAgEmENT PERSONNEL.[*] A mORE DETAILED REmuNERATION REPORT IS CONTAINED IN THE ANNuAL REPORT fROm PAgE 28 ONWARDS. THE REPORT CAN bE ACCESSED VIA THE ANZ WEbSITE ANZ.COm/ANNuALREPORT AS WELL AS IN HARD COPY.

ANZ’s remuneration framework is designed to focus our people on creating and enhancing value for our shareholders and other stakeholders. We aim to ensure there is a strong alignment between the short and long-term interests of both our shareholders and the executive team.

There are three components to remuneration – Fixed Remuneration, Short Term Incentive (STI) and Long Term Incentive (LTI). In the case of the CEO, his remuneration opportunity is split evenly between the three components. In the case of Disclosed Executives, a significant portion of their remuneration is ‘at risk’ with the outcomes differing from executive to executive. Refer to the Annual Report, page 32, for a detailed description of the ‘Composition of Remuneration at ANZ’.

The following summary has been prepared to provide shareholders with a view of remuneration structure and how remuneration was paid or communicated to the CEO and Disclosed Executives for 2012 and 2013 and includes:

  • » The actual amounts of grants made in respect of the years 2012 and 2013;

  • » Any amounts which had to be deferred in respect of the years 2012 and 2013; and

  • » The actual amounts received in respect of the years 2012 and 2013.

  • The term Key Management Personnel is defined under the Corporations Act.

1 Fixed remuneration was unchanged for Disclosed Executives year on year. The difference for S Elliott year on year reflects his promotion in 2012 where remuneration was increased to reflect expanded responsibilities. The differences for J Phillips and N Williams year on year reflects partial service as a Disclosed Executive in 2012.

2 The possible range of STI is between 0 and 2 times target STI. The actual STI received is dependent on ANZ and individual performance (refer to Section 6.2.1, Short Term Incentive (STI) of the 2013 Remuneration Report for more details). Anyone who received less than 100% of target forfeited the rest of their STI entitlement. The minimum value is nil and the maximum value is what was actually paid.

In 2013 equity to the value of $2,054,542 vested in respect of previously disclosed deferred STI granted in 2010 and 2011. In addition, equity to the value of $6,419,352 vested in respect of previously disclosed deferred LTI granted in 2007, as approved by shareholders.

4 P Chronican - Non monetary benefits include car parking and taxation services.

5 S Elliott - 2012 fixed remuneration represents what was paid during the year (an increase to $1,250,000 occurred at date of promotion, 1 March 2012 - this figure has been referenced to calculate 2012 STI as a % of target). Non monetary benefits include car parking and taxation services. In 2013 equity to the value of $588,926 vested in
