Dividend Reinvestment Plan and Bonus Option Plan

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) has a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) and a Bonus Option Plan (BOP) that will operate in respect of the proposed 2019 final dividend. For the 2019 final dividend, ANZ intends to provide shares under the DRP through an on-market purchase and BOP through the issue of new shares. The 'Acquisition Price' to be used in determining the number of shares to be provided under the DRP and BOP will be calculated by reference to the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average sale price of all fully paid ANZ ordinary shares sold in the ordinary course of trading on the ASX and Chi-X during the ten trading days commencing on 15 November 2019, and then rounded to the nearest whole cent. Shares provided under the DRP and BOP will rank equally in all respects with existing fully paid ANZ ordinary shares. Election notices from shareholders wanting to commence, cease or vary their participation in the DRP or BOP for the 2019 final dividend must be received by ANZ's Share Registrar by 5.00pm (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) on 13 November 2019. Subject to receiving effective contrary instructions from the shareholder, dividends payable to shareholders with a registered address in the United Kingdom (including the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man) or New Zealand will be converted to Pounds Sterling or New Zealand Dollars respectively at an exchange rate calculated on 15 November 2019.

1 Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are to the year ended 30 September 2018.

2 Cash profit excludes non-core items included in statutory profit and is provided to assist readers in understanding the result of the core business activities of the Group. The non-core items are calculated consistently period on period so as not to discriminate between positive and negative adjustments, and fall into one of the three categories: gains or losses included in earnings arising from changes in tax, legal or accounting legislation or other non-core items not associated with the core operations of the Group; treasury shares, revaluation of policy liabilities, economic hedging and similar accounting items that represent timing differences that will reverse through earnings in the future; and accounting reclassifications between individual line items that do not impact reported results, such as policyholders tax gross up. Cash profit is not a measure of cash flow or profit determined on a cash basis. The net after tax adjustment was an increase to statutory profit of $208 million ($174 million on a continuing basis) made up of several items. Refer pages 77 to 81 for further details.

3 The unfranked portion of the dividend will be sourced from ANZ’s conduit foreign income account.

4 It is proposed that the final dividend will be 70% franked per ordinary share for Australian tax purposes (30% tax rate) and carry New Zealand imputation credits of NZD 9 cents per ordinary share.

SUMMARY

Guide to Full Year Results

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ADOPTED

During the September 2019 full year, the Group adopted two new Accounting Standards, AASB 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9) and AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (AASB 15):

  • AASB 9 - the Group implemented an expected credit loss methodology for impairment of financial assets, and revised the classification and measurement of certain financial assets from 1 October 2018. Consequently, the Group increased its provision for credit impairment by $813 million through opening retained earnings. Comparative information has not been restated.

  • AASB 15 - the main impact of adoption is that certain items previously netted are now presented gross in operating income and operating expenses. Comparative information has been restated which increased total operating income for the September 2018 full year by $153 million and increased total operating expenses by the same amount.

For further details on key requirements and impacts of the changes described above refer to Note 1 and 16 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NON-IFRS INFORMATION

Statutory profit is prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards , which comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Group provides additional measures of performance in the Consolidated Financial Report & Dividend Announcement which are prepared on a basis other than in accordance with accounting standards. The guidance provided in Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) Regulatory Guide 230 has been followed when presenting this information.

Cash Profit

Cash profit, a non-IFRS measure, represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the core business activities of the Group, enabling readers to assess Group and Divisional performance against prior periods and against peer institutions. The adjustments made in arriving at cash profit are included in statutory profit which is subject to audit within the context of the external auditor’s audit of the 2019 ANZ Annual Financial Statements (when released). Cash profit is not subject to audit by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that cash profit adjustments have been determined on a consistent basis across each period presented.

  • Adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit - To calculate cash profit, the Group excludes non-core items from statutory profit. Refer to pages 77 to 81 for adjustments between statutory and cash profit.

  • Large/Notable items within cash profit - The Group’s cash profit result from continuing operations includes a number of items collectively referred to as large/notable items. While these items form part of cash profit, given their nature and significance, they have been presented separately with comparative information, where relevant, to provide transparency and aid comparison. Refer to pages 16 to 20 for details of large/notable items.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The financial results of the Wealth Australia businesses being divested and associated Group reclassification and consolidation impacts are treated as discontinued operations from a financial reporting perspective. These businesses qualify as discontinued operations, a subset of assets and liabilities held for sale, as they represent a major line of business.

The Group Income Statement and Statement of Comprehensive Income show discontinued operations separately from continuing operations in a separate line item ‘Profit/(Loss) from discontinued operations’.

  • Sale to IOOF Holdings Limited (IOOF)

On 17 October 2017, the Group announced it had agreed to sell its OnePath pensions and investments (OnePath P&I) business and Aligned Dealer Groups (ADGs) businesses to IOOF. The sale of the ADG business completed on 1 October 2018. On 17 October 2019, the Group announced it had agreed a revised sale price for its OnePath P&I business and ADGs to IOOF of $850 million, being a $125 million reduction from the original sale price of $975 million announced in October 2017. The new price of $850 million includes approximately $25 million that ANZ has already received for the sale of ADGs in October 2018. The revised terms reflect changing market conditions and include lower overall warranty caps as well as some changes to the strategic alliance arrangements. Subject to APRA approval, the Group expects the transaction to complete in the first quarter of calendar year 2020. The impact of the reduction in price has been reflected in the 2019 financial results.

  • Sale to Zurich Financial Services Australia (Zurich)

On 12 December 2017, ANZ announced that it had agreed to sell its life insurance business to Zurich and regulatory approval was obtained on 10 October 2018. The transaction was completed on 31 May 2019.

10

SUMMARY

Included in the ‘Cash loss from discontinued operations’ is:

  • A $23 million loss ($81 million loss after tax) was recognised in the September 2019 half. This is attributable to sale related adjustments and writedowns, the reversal of the life-to-date cash profit adjustments on the revaluation of policy liabilities sold to Zurich, partially offset by the recycling of gains previously deferred in equity reserves on sale completion. A $632 million loss (pre and post-tax) was recognised on the reclassification of Wealth Australia discontinued operations businesses to held for sale in the September 2018 full year; and

  • Customer remediation which includes provisions for expected refunds to customers and related remediation costs associated with inappropriate advice or services not provided in the pensions and investments and life insurance businesses.

CONTINUING OPERATIONS

Divisional Performance

The presentation of divisional results has been impacted by a number of methodology and structural changes during the September 2019 full year. Prior period comparatives have been restated:

  • The methodology for allocating earnings on capital at a business unit level changed from Economic Capital to Regulatory Capital. While neutral at a Group level, this change impacted net interest income at the divisional level;

  • The residual Asia Retail and Wealth businesses have been transferred from the former Asia Retail and Pacific division to Technology, Services & Operations (TSO) and Group Centre division. The remaining segment has been renamed Pacific division; and

  • ANZ’s lenders mortgage insurance, share investing, general insurance distribution and financial planning businesses which were previously part of the continuing operations of Wealth Australia now form part of the Australia Retail and Commercial division (previously named Australia division) and Wealth Australia ceases to exist as a continuing division.

Other than those described above, there have been no other significant changes impacting divisional performance.

1. Balance Sheet amounts and metrics include assets and liabilities held for sale unless otherwise stated.

2. See page 46 for further details regarding the differences between APRA Basel 3 and Internationally Comparable Basel 3 standards.

3. Liquidity Coverage Ratio is calculated on a half year average basis.

4. In the September 2019 half, ANZ implemented a more market responsive collateral valuation methodology for the home loan portfolio in Australia which increased the number of home loans being classified as impaired rather than past due. Comparative information has not been restated for this change in methodology. Additionally, refinement to underlying data resulted in a transfer from past due and sub-standard categories into impaired assets. Comparative information has been restated with a transfer of $106 million at March 2019 and $126 million at September 2018.

5. On adoption of AASB 9 on 1 October 2018, the Group increased the collectively assessed provision by $813 million. Comparative information has not been restated

6. Equals total shareholders’ equity less total non-controlling interests, goodwill and other intangible assets.

7. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, the New Zealand division Net loans and advances increased 2% compared to March 2019 and 4% compared to September 2018.

GROUP RESULTS

Non-IFRS Information

Statutory profit is prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards, which comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Group provides additional measures of performance in the Consolidated Financial Report & Dividend Announcement which are prepared on a basis other than in accordance with accounting standards. The guidance provided in Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) Regulatory Guide 230 has been followed when presenting this information.

Cash Profit

Cash profit, a non-IFRS measure, represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the core business activities of the Group, enabling readers to assess Group and Divisional performance against prior periods and against peer institutions. To calculate cash profit, the Group excludes non-core items from statutory profit (refer to Definitions on pages 128 to 129 for further details). The adjustments made in arriving at cash profit are included in statutory profit which is subject to audit within the context of the external auditor’s audit of the 2019 ANZ Annual Financial Statements (when released). Cash profit is not subject to audit by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that cash profit adjustments have been determined on a consistent basis across each period presented.

The Group Results section is reported on a cash profit basis for continuing operations unless otherwise stated. For information on discontinued operations please refer to the Guide to Full Year Results on page 10.

Group Performance – continuing operations

Group Cash Profit - September 2019 Full Year v September 2018 Full Year

==> picture [512 x 157] intentionally omitted <==

  • September 2019 v September 2018

Cash profit from continuing operations decreased $17 million (0%) compared with the September 2018 full year. Excluding foreign currency translation movements, cash profit decreased $54 million (-1%).

  • Net interest income decreased $175 million (-1%) largely due to lower interest rates and competitive pressures resulting in a 11 basis point decrease in the net interest margin, partially offset by 5% growth in average interest earning assets. The lower net interest margin reflects growth in lower margin Markets Balance Sheet activities, higher proportionate growth in the lower Institutional business, customer switching to principal and interest in Australia home loans, deposit margin compression and lower earnings on capital, partially offset by the impact of home loans repricing. The increase in average interest earning assets reflects growth in Institutional banking portfolios and home loan growth in the New Zealand division. Refer to pages 26 and 27 for further details on key movements.

  • Other operating income decreased $163 million (-3%) largely as the result of net divestment impacts of $198 million, a $120 million decrease in net fee and commission income, and $130 million decrease primarily in other income attributable to realised losses on economic hedges against foreign currency denominated revenue streams (which offset favourable foreign currency translations elsewhere in the Group) and a reduction in income from the lenders mortgage insurance business. This was partially offset by higher Markets other operating income of $154 million, a $79 million increase in share of associate’s profit and a $52 million decrease in customer remediation within other operating income. Refer to pages 28 to 30 for further details on key movements.

  • Operating expenses decreased $330 million (-4%) primarily due to an accelerated software amortisation charge in the prior period of $251 million, lower restructuring expenses of $150 million, a reduction in expenses following the sale of OnePath Life (NZ) and Asia Retail and Wealth businesses of $60 million, lower Royal Commission legal costs of $40 million and lower FTE. This was partially offset by higher customer remediation of $182 million within operating expenses, inflation, the impact of foreign currency translation and regulatory compliance spend in New Zealand. Refer to pages 31 to 32 for further details on key movements.

  • Credit impairment charges increased $107 million (+16%) largely due to higher collectively assessed credit impairment charges, primarily as a result of the prior period benefitting from the release of temporary economic overlays and a greater number of customer upgrades. Refer to pages 34 and 35 for further details on key movements.

Excluding large/notable items, cash profit decreased $96 million (-1%).

  • September 2019 v March 2019

  • Cash profit from continuing operations decreased $658 million (-18%) compared with the March 2019 half. Excluding foreign currency translation movements, cash profit decreased $669 million (-19%).

  • Net interest income decreased $259 million (-4%) largely due to lower interest rates and competitive pressures resulting in a 8 basis point decrease in the net interest margin. The lower net interest margin reflects deposit margin compression from lower interest rates, higher proportionate growth in the lower Institutional business, customer switching to principal and interest in Australia home loans and asset competition. This was partially offset by lower funding costs and the impact of home loans re-pricing. Refer to pages 26 and 27 for further details on key movements.

  • Other operating income decreased $204 million (-8%) largely as a result of net divestment impacts of $241 million and lower Markets other operating income of $47 million. This was partially offset by a $49 million increase in net fee and commission income, $22 million increase in other income and lower customer remediation of $13 million within other operating income. Refer to pages 28 to 30 for further details on key movements.

  • Operating expenses increased $341 million (+8%) primarily due to higher customer remediation of $301 million within operating expenses, higher investment and marketing spend and the impact of foreign currency translation, partially offset by lower restructuring expenses of $25 million and Royal Commission legal costs of $11 million. Refer to pages 31 to 32 for further details on key movements.

  • Credit impairment charges increased $9 million (+2%) largely due to higher individually assessed credit impairment charges, partially offset by lower collectively assessed credit impairment charges. Refer to pages 34 and 35 for further details on key movements.

Excluding large/notable items, cash profit decreased $162 million (-5%).

1. Includes large/notable items of -$98 million for the September 2019 half (Mar 19 half: $7 million; Sep 18 full year: $7million). Refer to pages 16 to 20 for further details on large/notable items. Also includes the major bank levy of -$185 million for the September 2019 half (Mar 19 half: -$178 million; Sep 18 full year: -$355 million).

2. Average balance sheet amounts include assets and liabilities reclassified as held for sale from continuing operations.

3. In the March 2019 half, the methodology for allocating earnings on capital at a business unit level changed from being based on Economic Capital to Regulatory Capital. While neutral at a Group level, this change impacted net interest income at the divisional level and comparative information has been restated accordingly.

Group net interest margin - September 2019 Full Year v September 2018 Full Year

==> picture [505 x 138] intentionally omitted <==

1. Markets Balance Sheet activities includes the impact of discretionary liquid assets and other Balance Sheet activities.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

Net interest margin (-11 bps)

  • Asset mix and funding mix (-4 bps): unfavourable asset mix from the impacts of customer switching from interest only to principal and interest home loans in the Australia Retail and Commercial division, customer switching from variable to fixed home loans in the New Zealand division and unfavourable mix impacts from a higher proportion of Institutional lending.

  • Wholesale funding costs (0 bps): broadly flat basis risk and broadly flat spreads on wholesale funding.

  • Deposit pricing (-1 bps): margin compression from lower interest rates and competition in the Australia Retail and Commercial and New Zealand divisions. Higher deposit margins in the Institutional division during the March 2019 half were offset by rate cuts in the September 2019 half.

26

GROUP RESULTS

  • Assets pricing (+2 bps): impact of re-pricing of home loans in the Australia Retail and Commercial division, partially offset by increased competition in all divisions.

  • Treasury (-2 bps): lower earnings on capital reflecting a lower interest rate environment.

3. Includes foreign exchange earnings and net income from insurance business.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

Other operating income decreased by $163 million (-3%).

Net fee and commission income (-$131 million or -5%)

  • $125 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division primarily driven by lower fee income due to the reduction or removal of commercial and retail fees and lower volumes.

  • $42 million decrease due to the impact of divested business results.

  • $14 million decrease in the Institutional division excluding Markets primarily due to higher interchange and scheme costs in the payments and cash management business and a slowdown in loan syndication activities. This was partially offset by higher guarantee and commitment fees in the Transaction Banking business and favourable foreign currency translation movements.

  • $38 million increase in the New Zealand division primarily due to an increase in commission fees, higher funds under management income and favourable foreign currency translation movements.

  • $17 million increase due to lower customer remediation in 2019.

Markets income (-$10 million or -1%)

  • $120 million decrease in Balance Sheet trading driven by a reduction in net interest income from falling and flattening yield curves.

  • $71 million increase in Franchise Trading primarily attributable to favourable market conditions in Australia and New Zealand rates and tighter credit spreads in the March 2019 half ($96 million). This was partially offset by adverse derivative valuation adjustments primarily from falling AUD and NZD swap rates (-$25 million).

  • $39 million increase in Franchise Sales due to Australian and New Zealand clients restructuring to lock in low rates, and franchise growth initiatives in North East Asia.

Share of associates’ profit (+$79 million or +43%)

  • $79 million increase in profits from associates of which $44 million relates to P.T. Bank Pan Indonesia and $36 million relates to AmBank.

Other (-$268 million or -29%)

  • $154 million decrease due to a loss of income from divested businesses of $111 million, primarily related to OnePath Life (NZ) and a $43 million decrease due to gains on sale recognised in 2018 from divestments of $295 million in respect of MCC, Asia Retail and Wealth, SRCB, UDC, Cambodia JV and PNG Retail, Commercial and SME. This was partially offset by divestment impacts recognised in 2019: One Path Life (NZ) ($204 million), Cambodia JV ($10 million) and Paymark ($37 million).

  • $64 million decrease in the TSO and Group Centre division primarily due to realised losses on economic hedges against foreign currency denominated revenue streams as the result of the NZD and USD strengthening against the AUD of $51 million in 2019 compared to a $4 million gain in 2018. These offset favourable foreign currency translations elsewhere in the Group.

  • $61 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division. This was partly due to a reduction in income from the lenders mortgage insurance business.

  • $28 million increase due to lower customer remediation in 2019.

Excluding large/notable items, other operating income decreased $17 million.

29

GROUP RESULTS

  • September 2019 v March 2019

Other operating income decreased by $204 million (-8%).

Net fee and commission income (+$57 million or +5%)

  • $44 million increase in the Australia Retail and Commercial division primarily as the result of higher credit card rebates incentives.

  • $11 million increase due to lower remediation costs in the September 2019 half.

  • $7 million decrease in the Institutional division excluding Markets primarily due to a reduction in upfront fees within Loans and Specialised Finance business, partially offset by favourable foreign currency translation movements.

Markets income (-$117 million or -12%)

  • $66 million decrease in Balance Sheet trading attributable to reduced net interest income from falling and flattening yield curves.

  • $53 million decrease in Franchise Trading primarily attributable to challenging market conditions in international rates markets, particularly greater China ($111 million). This was partially offset by favourable derivative valuation adjustments ($58 million).

  • $2 million increase in Franchise Sales primarily attributable to customer activity in New Zealand.

Other (-$213 million or -49%)

  • $238 million decrease due to a loss of income from divested businesses of $22 million primarily related to OnePath Life (NZ) and divestment impacts of $216 million for One Path Life NZ ($197 million) and gain on sale from Paymark ($37 million) recognised in the March 2019 half. This was partially offset by divestment impacts in the September 2019 half for Cambodia JV ($10 million) and One Path Life NZ ($7 million).

  • $13 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division primarily due to a reduction in income from the lenders mortgage insurance business.

  • $9 million net decrease in the TSO and Group Centre division due to realised losses on economic hedges against foreign currency denominated revenue streams as the result of the NZD strengthening against the AUD. These offset favourable foreign currency translations elsewhere in the Group.

  • $27 million increase due to dividend income from Bank of Tianjin in the September 2019 half.

  • $11 million increase in the Institutional division primarily due to credit spread movements driving fair value adjustments on loans measured at fair value following the adoption of AASB 9.

Excluding large/notable items, other operating income increased $24 million (1%).

1. On adoption of AASB 15, the Group reclassified certain items previously netted which are now presented gross in operating income and operating expenses. Comparative information has been restated accordingly which increased total operating expenses by $153 million for the September 2018 full year.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

Operating expenses decreased by $330 million (-4%).

  • Personnel expenses increased $7 million (0%) largely driven by higher regulatory compliance spend in the New Zealand division, higher employee leave provisions, wage inflation and the impact of insourcing technology services. This was offset by lower FTE, lower personnel expenses following the sale of OnePath Life (NZ) and Asia Retail and Wealth businesses ($33 million) and lower customer remediation ($58 million).

  • Premises expenses decreased $16 million (-2%) primarily driven by the consolidation of our property footprint.

  • Technology expenses decreased $365 million (-19%) largely due to accelerated amortisation charge in the prior period ($251 million) and the insourcing of technology services.

  • Restructuring expenses decreased $150 million (-66%) due to higher spend in the prior period associated with the move to agile ways of working in the Australia Retail and Commercial division and technology function.

  • Other expenses increased $194 million (+11%) largely due to higher customer remediation ($240 million), partially offset by lower expenses following the sale of OnePath Life (NZ) and Asia Retail and Wealth businesses ($26 million) and a reduction in Royal Commission legal costs ($40 million).

Excluding large/notable items, operating expenses decreased $1 million.

  • September 2019 v March 2019

Operating expenses increased by $341 million (+8%).

  • Personnel expenses increased $25 million (+1%) largely driven by the insourcing of technology services, an increase in customer remediation ($39 million), and higher regulatory compliance spend. This was partially offset by a decrease in employee leave provisions in the September half and lower personnel expenses in the September half following the sale of OnePath Life (NZ) ($3 million).

  • Premises expenses decreased $17 million (-4%) primarily driven by the consolidation of our property portfolio.

  • Restructuring expenses decreased $25 million (-49%) due to higher spend in the prior period associated with the move to agile ways of working in Group’s enablement functions.

  • Other expenses increased $352 million (+45%) largely related to higher customer remediation ($262 million), higher investment spend and higher marketing spend which is typically higher in the September half. This was partially offset by lower Royal Commission legal costs ($11 million).

Excluding large/notable items, operating expenses increased $82 million (+2%).

GROUP RESULTS

Credit Risk – continuing operations

The Group has adopted AASB 9 Financial Instruments effective from 1 October 2018 which has resulted in key changes to the classification and measurement of financial assets, including the impairment of financial assets. Under the new standard, provision for credit impairment is based on an expected credit loss model (ECL) incorporating forward looking information. The presentation of credit risk information for the September and March 2019 halves and the September 2019 full year have been amended accordingly. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to reflect the requirements of the previous standard AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement . For further details on key requirements and impacts of the changes described above refer to Note 1 and 16 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Collectively assessed credit impairment charge

  • September 2019 v September 2018

The collectively assessed credit impairment charge increased by $102 million primarily driven by a $55 million increase in the New Zealand division and a $30 million increase in the Institutional division. The increase in the New Zealand division was primarily due to release of a temporary economic overlay in 2018, followed by a new temporary economic overlay in 2019. The increase in the Institutional division was due to a greater number of customer upgrades in the prior period.

September 2019 v March 2019

The collectively assessed credit impairment charge decreased by $9 million (-69%) primarily driven by an $85 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division, partially offset by a $56 million increase in the Institutional division and a $22 million increase in the New Zealand division. The decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division was primarily due to the downward revision of forward looking economic scenario weights for the Australian geography in the March 2019 half, as well as part release of a temporary management overlay in the September 2019 half. The increase in the Institutional division was primarily due to a greater number of customers downgrades compared to the prior period. The increase in the New Zealand division was due to the downward revision of forward looking economic scenario weights, along with a temporary economic overlay in the September 2019 half.

Individually assessed credit impairment charge

  • September 2019 v September 2018

The individually assessed credit impairment charge increased by $5 million (+1%) primarily due to lower write-backs and recoveries in the New Zealand and Institutional divisions, partially offset by higher write-backs and recoveries in the Australia Retail and Commercial division and a decrease due to the sale of the Asia Retail and Wealth businesses in the prior year.

  • September 2019 v March 2019

The individually assessed credit impairment charge increased by $18 million (+5%) driven by increased provisions in the Institutional, Australia Retail and Commercial and New Zealand divisions. The increase in the Australia Retail and Commercial division is due to higher new and increased provision following the implementation of a more market responsive collateral valuation methodology for the Australian home loan portfolio.

Long-Run Loss Rates

Management believe that disclosure of modelled expected loss data using average long-run loss rates for individually assessed provisions assists in assessing the longer term expected loss rates of the lending portfolio as it removes the volatility of reported earnings created by the use of accounting losses. The expected loss methodology used for economic profit is an internal measure and is not based on the credit loss provision principles of AASB 9 Financial Instruments which were effective from 1 October 2018.

1. Balance sheet amounts include assets and liabilities reclassified as held for sale from continuing and discontinued operations.

2. In the September 2019 half, ANZ implemented a more market responsive collateral valuation methodology for the home loan portfolio in Australia which increased the number of home loans being classified as impaired rather than past due. Comparative information has not been restated for the change in methodology. Additionally, refinement to underlying processes and associated data resulted in the transfer of loans from past due and sub-standard categories into impaired assets. Comparative information has been restated with a transfer of $106 million at March 2019 and $126 million at September 2018.

3. Restructured items are facilities where the original contractual terms have been modified for reasons related to the financial difficulties of the customer. Restructuring may consist of reduction of interest, principal or other payments legally due, or an extension in maturity materially beyond those typically offered to new facilities with similar risk.

September 2019 v September 2018

Gross impaired assets decreased $110 million (-5%) driven by the Institutional division (-$177 million) with repayments reducing a number of large impaired assets. This was partially offset by an increase in the Australia Retail and Commercial division ($57 million) primarily driven by a number of single name impaired loans in the Commercial portfolio. The Group’s individually assessed provision coverage ratio on impaired assets was 40.1% at 30 September 2019 (Sep 18: 43.0%).

September 2019 v March 2019

Gross impaired assets decreased $99 million (-5%) driven by the Institutional division ($108 million) due to repayments and write-offs. This was partially offset by the Australia Retail and Commercial ($5 million) and the New Zealand division ($7 million). The Group’s individually assessed provision coverage ratio on impaired assets was 40.1% at 30 September 2019 (March 19: 41.9%).

Comparative information has not been restated for the change in methodology.

September 2019 v September 2018

New impaired assets decreased $101 million (-5%) primarily driven by the Institutional division as the result of an improved risk profile due to portfolio rebalancing, combined with a benign credit environment. In addition, new impaired assets decreased due to lending reductions following the sale of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses. This was partially offset by an increase in the Australia Retail and Commercial division.

September 2019 v March 2019

New impaired assets increased by $227 million (26%) driven by the Australia Retail and Commercial and New Zealand division. The increase in the Australia Retail and Commercial division is primarily driven by an increase of $167 million from the implementation of a more market responsive collateral valuation methodology for the Australian home loan portfolio. The increase in the New Zealand division is driven by a number of single name impaired loans in the Commercial & Agri portfolio.

September 2019 v September 2018

Net loans and advances past due but not impaired increased $386 million due to a deterioration in home loans in the Australia Retail and Commercial division primarily in the > 90 days segment.

September 2019 v March 2019

Net loans and advances past due but not impaired decreased $1,564 million due to improvements in home loans in the Australian Retail and Commercial division primarily in the 1-29 and 30-59 days segment.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

The effective tax rate has decreased from 29.9% to 29.2%. The decrease of 70 bps is primarily due to higher offshore earnings which attract a lower average tax rate (-71 bps) and a net movement in respect of gains and losses on sale from divestments (-60 bps), partially offset by a net movement in other items (+74 bps) which included the impact of customer remediation.

September 2019 v March 2019

The effective tax rate has increased from 28.4% to 30.3%. The increase of 190 bps is primarily due to an increase in the provision for foreign tax on dividend repatriations (+54 bps) and a net movement in other items (+160 bps) which included the impact of customer remediation, partially offset by an overprovision in respect of prior years (-58 bps).

Earnings Related Hedges – continuing operations

Where it is considered appropriate, the Group takes out economic hedges against larger foreign exchange denominated revenue streams (primarily New Zealand Dollar, US Dollar and US Dollar correlated). New Zealand Dollar exposure relates to the New Zealand geography and USD exposures relate to Asia, Pacific, Europe & America. Details of these hedges are set out below.

1. Value in AUD at contracted rate.

2. Unrealised valuation movement plus realised revenue from matured or closed out hedges.

3. Realised revenue from closed out hedges.

As at 30 September 2019, the following hedges were in place to partially hedge future earnings against adverse movements in exchange rates:

  • NZD 3.7 billion at a forward rate of approximately NZD 1.06/AUD.

  • USD 0.5 billion at a forward rate of approximately USD 0.71/AUD.

During the September 2019 full year:

  • NZD 1.9 billion of economic hedges matured and a realised loss of $43 million (pre-tax) was recorded in cash profit.

  • USD 0.2 billion of economic hedges matured and a realised loss of $8 million (pre-tax) was recorded in cash profit.

  • An unrealised gain of $22 million (pre-tax) on the outstanding NZD and USD economic hedges were recorded in the statutory Income Statement during the year. This unrealised gain has been treated as an adjustment to statutory profit in calculating cash profit as these are hedges of future NZD and USD revenues.

Economic profit is a risk adjusted profit measure used to evaluate business unit performance. This is used for internal management purposes and is not subject to audit by the external auditor.

Economic profit is calculated via a series of adjustments to cash profit. The economic credit cost adjustment replaces the accounting credit loss charge with internal expected loss based on the average long-run loss rate per annum on the portfolio over an economic cycle. The benefit of imputation credits is recognised, measured at 70% of Australian tax. The cost of capital is a major component of economic profit. At an ANZ Group level, this is calculated using average ordinary shareholders’ equity (excluding non-controlling interests), multiplied by the cost of capital rate (9.0% for the September 2019 half and 10.0% for the March 2019 half with the average of 9.5% being applied to the September 2018 full year for comparative purposes). At a business unit level, capital is allocated based on Regulatory Capital, whereby higher risk businesses attract higher levels of capital. The basis of allocation was changed from Economic Capital to Regulatory Capital in the March 2019 half and comparative information was restated. This method is designed to help drive appropriate risk management and ensure business returns align with the level of risk. Key risks covered include credit risk, operational risk, market risk and other risks.

Economic profit decreased by $11 million (-1%) against the September 2018 full year driven by higher cost of capital, partially offset by favourable economic credit cost adjustment and higher imputation credits.

Economic profit decreased by $480 million (-49%) against the March 2019 half driven by lower cash profit and lower imputation credits, partially offset by lower cost of capital.

Available-for-sale classification used in comparative periods ceases to exist under AASB 9 and a new classification of investment securities was introduced. Refer to Note 1 for further details. Comparative information has not been restated.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

  • Trading and investment securities/available-for-sale assets increased $14.9 billion (+13%) primarily driven by an increase in liquid assets in Markets and the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

  • Derivative financial assets and liabilities increased $52.3 billion (+76%) and $51.3 billion (+74%) respectively as interest rate movements resulted in higher derivative volumes and fair values, particularly in interest rate swap products.

  • Net loans and advances increased $10.8 billion (+2%) primarily driven by lending growth in the Institutional division (+$10.5 billion), growth in home loans in the New Zealand division (+$4.1 billion) and the impact of foreign currency translation movements, partially offset by the decrease in home loans in the Australia Retail and Commercial division (-$9.4 billion).

  • Assets and liabilities held for sale decreased $43.4 billion (-96%) and $45.1 billion (-96%) respectively primarily driven by the sale completion of the life insurance business to Zurich, OPL NZ, Cambodia JV and PNG Retail, Commercial & SME.

  • Deposits and other borrowings increased $19.5 billion (+3%) primarily driven by increased deposits from banks and repurchase agreements (+$9.9 billion), growth in customer deposits across the Australia Retail and Commercial (+$5.3 billion) and New Zealand division (+$2.7 billion) and the impact of foreign currency translation movements. This was partially offset by reduction in certificates of deposit and commercial paper issued (-$11.6 billion).

  • Debt issuances increased $8.5 billion (+7%) primarily driven by senior debt issuances and the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

  • September 2019 v March 2019

  • Cash/Settlement balances owed to ANZ/Collateral paid decreased $9.6 billion (-9%) primarily driven by a decrease in balances with central banks and short term reverse repurchase agreements in Markets, overnight bank deposits in Treasury, partially offset by increase in collateral paid associated with higher derivative liability position and the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

  • Trading and investment securities/available-for-sale assets increased $5.1 billion (+4%) primarily driven by an increase in liquid assets in Markets and the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

  • Derivative financial assets and liabilities increased $41.3 billion (+52%) and $40.1 billion (+50%) respectively as interest rate movements resulted in higher derivative volumes and fair values, particularly in interest rate swap products.

  • Net loans and advances increased $6.0 billion (+1%) primarily driven by lending growth in the Institutional division (+$9.4 billion) and growth in home loans in the New Zealand division (+1.8 billion), partially offset by a decrease in home loans in the Australia Retail and Commercial division (-$4.7 billion) and the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

  • Assets and liabilities held for sale decreased $41.7 billion (-96%) and $44.5 billion (-95%) respectively, primarily driven by the sale completion of life insurance business to Zurich, Cambodia JV and PNG Retail, Commercial & SME.

Liquidity Risk - including discontinued operations

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its payment obligations as they fall due, including repaying depositors or maturing wholesale debt, or that the Group has insufficient capacity to fund increases in assets. The timing mismatch of cash flows and the related liquidity risk is inherent in all banking operations and is closely monitored by the Group and managed in accordance with the risk appetite set by the Board.

The Group’s approach to liquidity risk management incorporates two key components:

  • Scenario modelling of funding sources

  • ANZ’s liquidity risk appetite is defined by the ability to meet a range of regulatory requirements and internal liquidity metrics mandated by the Board. The metrics cover a range of scenarios of varying duration and level of severity. The objective of this framework is to:

  • Provide protection against shorter term extreme market dislocation and stress.

  • Maintain structural strength in the balance sheet by ensuring that an appropriate amount of longer-term assets are funded with longer-term funding.

  • Ensure that no undue timing concentrations exist in the Group’s funding profile.

A key component of this framework is the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), which is a severe short term liquidity stress scenario mandated by banking regulators including APRA. As part of meeting LCR requirements, ANZ has a Committed Liquidity Facility (CLF) with the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). The CLF has been established to offset the shortage of available High Quality Liquid Assets (HQLA) in Australia and provides an alternative form of contingent liquidity. The total amount of the CLF available to a qualifying Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) is set annually by APRA. From 1 January 2019, ANZ’s CLF is $48.0 billion (2018 calendar year end: $46.9 billion).

  • Liquid assets

The Group holds a portfolio of high quality unencumbered liquid assets in order to protect the Group’s liquidity position in a severely stressed environment, as well as to meet regulatory requirements. High Quality Liquid Assets comprise three categories, with the definitions consistent with Basel 3 LCR:

  • Highest-quality liquid assets (HQLA1): Cash, highest credit quality government, central bank or public sector securities eligible for repurchase with central banks to provide same-day liquidity.

  • High-quality liquid assets (HQLA2): High credit quality government, central bank or public sector securities, high quality corporate debt securities and high quality covered bonds eligible for repurchase with central banks to provide same-day liquidity.

  • Alternative liquid assets (ALA): Assets qualifying as collateral for the CLF and other eligible securities listed by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ).

The Group monitors and manages the size and composition of its liquid assets portfolio on an ongoing basis in line with regulatory requirements and the risk appetite set by the Board.

2. Capital deductions represent the movement in retained earnings in deconsolidated entities, capitalised software, expected losses in excess of eligible provisions shortfall and other intangibles in the period.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

ANZ’s CET1 ratio decreased 8 bps to 11.4% during the year. Key drivers of the movement in the CET1 ratio were:

  • Net organic capital generation of 165 bps. This was primarily driven by cash profit (excluding large/notable and one-off items), partially offset by underlying RWA growth (excluding foreign currency translation impacts, regulatory changes and other one-offs).

  • Payment of the September 2018 final and the March 2019 interim dividends (net of BOP issuance, neutralised DRP) reduced the CET1 ratio by 115 bps.

  • Capital benefits from asset disposals completed during the year increased the CET1 ratio by 69 bps, partially offset by-on market share buy-back of $1.1 billion which decreased the CET1 ratio by 29 bps (completion of the announced $3 billion during the March 2019 half).

  • Net Imposts reduced the CET1 ratio by 60 bps, including impacts from implementation of Standardised Approach for Measuring Counterparty Credit Risk Exposures (SA-CCR) (-18 bps), APRA Operational Risk overlay (-18 bps), implementation of risk weight floors for the New Zealand mortgages and farm lending portfolios (-18 bps) and other RWA modelling changes (-6 bps).

  • Customer remediation impacts (continuing and discontinuing) reduced the CET1 by 16 bps.

  • Other impacts include impact of AASB 9 transition (-5 bps), movements in non-cash earnings, net foreign currency translation, defined benefit plan impacts and movements in deferred tax assets (-7 bps), and various other movements (-10 bps).

  • September 2019 v March 2019

ANZ’s CET1 ratio decreased 13 bps to 11.4% during the September 2019 half. Key drivers of the movement in the CET1 ratio were:

  • Net organic capital generation of 75 bps. This was primarily driven by cash profit (excluding large/notable items and one-off items), which was partially offset by underlying RWA growth (excluding foreign currency translation movements, regulatory changes and other one-offs) and minor benefits from other business capital deductions.

  • Payment of the March 2019 interim dividend (net of BOP issuance, neutralised DRP) reduced the CET1 ratio by 56 bps.

  • Capital benefits from asset disposals increased the CET1 ratio by 52 bps (~+$2 billion), mainly from the sale completion of the life insurance business to Zurich.

  • Net Imposts reduced the CET1 ratio by 51 bps, including impacts from implementation of SA-CCR (-18 bps), APRA Operational Risk overlay (- 18 bps), implementation of risk weights floors for the New Zealand mortgages and farm lending portfolios (-18 bps) and net other RWA modelling changes.

  • Customer remediation impacts (continuing and discontinuing) reduced the CET1 ratio by 13 bps.

Other CRWA changes are mainly the net impacts from RWA Imposts including impacts from implementation of SA-CCR and risk weight floors for the New Zealand mortgages and farm lending portfolios, partially offset by CRWA reduction from asset divestments. Non-CRWA increased by $5.7 billion mainly driven by additional Operational Risk capital overlay in relation to the major banks’ risk governance self-assessments.

Total Risk Weighted Assets (RWA) - September 2019 v March 2019

==> picture [512 x 136] intentionally omitted <==

  • September 2019 v March 2019

Total RWA increased by $20.7 billion. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation movements and other non-recurring CRWA changes, underlying CRWAs (divisional lending and risk migration) increased by $1.6 billion, mainly driven by lending growth in the Institutional division. Other CRWA changes are mainly net impacts from RWA Imposts including impacts from implementation of SA-CCR and risk weight floors for NZ mortgages and farm lending portfolios, partially offset by CRWA reduction from asset divestments. The increase in non-CRWA of $8.1 billion mainly reflects higher Operational Risk RWA which includes the Operational Risk capital overlay from APRA in relation to the major banks’ risk governance self-assessments.

APRA to Internationally Comparable[1] Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1 ratio) as at 30 September 2019

==> picture [506 x 133] intentionally omitted <==

1. ANZ’s interpretation of the regulations documented in the Basel Committee publications: “Basel 3: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems” (June 2011) and “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards” (June 2006). Also includes differences identified in APRA’s information paper entitled “International Capital Comparison Study” (13 July 2015).

The above provides a reconciliation of the CET1 ratio under APRA’s Basel 3 prudential capital standards to Internationally Comparable Basel 3 standards. APRA views the Basel 3 reforms as a minimum requirement and hence has not incorporated some of the concessions proposed in the Basel 3 rules and has also set higher requirements in other areas. As a result, Australian banks’ Basel 3 reported capital ratios will not be directly comparable with international peers. The International Comparable Basel 3 CET1 ratio incorporates differences between APRA and both the Basel Committee Basel 3 framework (including differences identified in the March 2014 Basel Committee’s Regulatory Consistency Assessment Programme (RCAP) on Basel 3 implementation in Australia) and its application in major offshore jurisdictions.

The material differences between APRA Basel 3 and Internationally Comparable Basel 3 ratios include:

Deductions

  • Investments in insurance and banking associates - APRA requires full deduction against CET1. On an Internationally Comparable basis, these investments are subject to a concessional threshold before a deduction is required.

  • Deferred tax assets - A full deduction is required from CET1 for deferred tax assets (DTA) relating to temporary differences. On an Internationally Comparable basis, this is first subject to a concessional threshold before the deduction is required.

Risk Weighted Assets (RWA)

  • Mortgages RWA - APRA imposes a floor of 20% on the downturn Loss Given Default (LGD) used in credit RWA calculations for residential mortgages. The Internationally Comparable Basel 3 framework requires a downturn LGD floor of 10%. Additionally, from July 2016, APRA requires a higher correlation factor than the Basel framework.

  • IRRBB RWA - APRA requires inclusion of Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) within the RWA base for the CET1 ratio calculation. This is not required on an Internationally Comparable basis.

  • Specialised lending - APRA requires the supervisory slotting approach to be used in determining credit RWA for specialised lending exposures. The Internationally Comparable basis allows for the advanced internal ratings based approach to be used when calculating RWA for these exposures.

  • Unsecured Corporate Lending LGD - an adjustment to align ANZ’s unsecured corporate lending LGD to 45% to be consistent with banks in other jurisdictions. The 45% LGD rate is also used in the Foundation Internal Ratings-Based approach (FIRB).

  • Undrawn Corporate Lending Exposure at Default (EAD) - an adjustment to ANZ’s credit conversion factors (CCF) for undrawn corporate loan commitments to 75% (used in FIRB approach) to align with banks in other jurisdictions.

1. Prior period numbers have not been restated for the impact of AASB 15 to align with previously reported regulatory returns.

  • September 2019 v September 2018

APRA leverage ratio increased 11 bps during the year. Key drivers of the movement were:

  • Net organic capital generation (largely from cash profit excluding large/notable and one-off items) less dividends paid during the year (+23 bps).

  • Exposure growth including derivatives which collectively reduced the leverage ratio by 11 bps.

  • Net other impacts included the on-market share buy-back completed in the March 2019 half, customer remediation impacts, foreign currency translation movements, deferred tax assets and other items, partially offset by benefits from asset divestments (-1 bps).

  • September 2019 v March 2019

APRA leverage ratio increased 19 bps during the September 2019 half. Key drivers of the movement were:

  • Net organic capital generation (largely from cash profit excluding large/notable and one-off items) less dividends paid during the September 2019 half (+12 bps).

  • Exposure growth (-1 bps).

  • Net other impacts included benefits from asset divestments, partially offset by customer remediation impacts, foreign currency translation movements, deferred tax assets and other items (+8 bps).

Capital Management – Other Regulatory Developments

  • Financial System Inquiry (FSI)

The Australian Government completed a comprehensive inquiry into Australia’s financial system in 2014 which included a number of key recommendations that may have an impact on regulatory capital levels. APRA initiatives in support of the FSI are:

  • In July 2017, APRA released an information paper outlining its assessment on the additional capital required for the Australian banking sector to be considered ‘unquestionably strong’ as originally outlined in the FSI final report in December 2014. APRA indicated that “in the case of the four major Australian banks, this equated to a benchmark CET1 capital ratio, under the current capital adequacy framework, of at least 10.5 percent. APRA also stated that the major banks should meet this benchmark by 1 January 2020 at the latest”.

  • APRA is currently consulting on the revisions to the capital framework that will produce ‘unquestionably strong’ capital ratios with the release of their proposals on revisions to credit risk, operational risk, market risk and interest rate risk in the banking book requirements in February 2018, June 2019 and September 2019. While the final forms of these proposals will only be determined later in 2020, the Group expects the implementation of any revisions to the current requirements will result in further changes to the risk weighting framework for certain asset classes and other risk types (such as market and operational risk). APRA has announced that it does not expect that the changes to the risk weights will necessitate further increases in capital for ADIs, although this could vary by ADI depending on the final requirements.

  • APRA released a discussion paper in August 2018 on adjustments to the overall design of the capital framework to improve transparency, international comparability and flexibility of the ADI capital framework. The focus of the proposals is on the presentation of the capital ratios to facilitate comparability whilst recognising the relative capital strength of ADIs and measures to enhance supervisory flexibility in times of financial stress. APRA’s consultation for the above is currently taking place with final prudential standards planned to be made available by 2020.

APRA’s consultation for the above is currently taking place with target implementation by 2022 without any phase-in arrangements. Given the number of items that are currently open for consultation with APRA, the final outcome of the FSI including any further changes to APRA’s prudential standards or other impacts on the Group remains uncertain.

  • APRA Total Loss Absorbing Capacity Requirements

In July 2019, APRA announced its decision on loss-absorbing capacity in which it will require domestic systemically important banks (D-SIBs), including ANZ, to increase their Total Capital by 3% of risk-weighted assets by January 2024. Based on ANZ’s capital position as at 30 September 2019, this represents an incremental increase in the Total Capital requirement of approximately $12 billion, with an equivalent decrease in other senior funding. APRA has stated that it anticipates that D-SIBs would satisfy the requirement predominantly with Tier 2 capital.

  • Revisions to Related Entities Framework

APRA announced in August 2019 that it will implement its proposal to reduce limits for Australian ADIs’ exposure to related entities, reducing limits from 50% of Level 1 Total capital to 25% of Level 1 Tier 1 capital from January 2021. As exposures are measured net of capital deductions, the proposed changes to APRA’s capital regulations (contained in APS111 below) would affect the measurement of ADI exposures. On the basis that the APS111 revisions are implemented as currently proposed, the reduction in the above limits is not expected to have a material impact on ANZ and its subsidiaries.

  • Revisions to APS111 Capital Adequacy

In October 2019, APRA released a discussion paper on draft revisions to the prudential standards APS111 Capital Adequacy: Measurement of Capital for consultation. The most material change from APRA’s proposal is in relation to the treatment of capital investments for each banking and insurance subsidiary at Level 1 with the tangible component of the investment changing from 400% risk weighting to:

  • 250% risk weighting up to an amount equal to 10% of ANZ’s net Level 1 Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1); and

  • the remainder of the investment will be treated as a CET1 capital deduction.

ANZ is reviewing the implications for its current investments. The net impact on the Group is unclear and will depend upon a number of factors including the capitalisation of the affected subsidiaries at the time of implementation, the final form of the prudential standard, as well as the effect of management actions being pursued that have the potential to materially offset the impact of these proposals. Based on ANZ’s current investment in its affected subsidiaries and in the absence of any offsetting management actions, the above proposals implies a reduction in ANZ’s Level 1 CET1 capital ratio of up to approximately $2.5bn (~75 basis points). However, ANZ believes that this outcome is unlikely and, post implementation of management actions, the net capital impact could be minimal. There is no impact on ANZ’s Level 2 CET1 capital ratio arising from these proposed changes, which are proposed to be implemented from 1 January 2021.

  • Level 3 Conglomerates (Level 3)

APRA is extending its prudential supervision framework to Conglomerate Groups via the Level 3 framework which will regulate a bancassurance group such as ANZ as a single economic entity with minimum capital requirements and additional monitoring of risk exposure levels.

In August 2016, APRA confirmed the deferral of capital requirements for Conglomerate Groups to allow for the final capital requirements arising from FSI recommendations and from international initiatives to be determined.

The non-capital components of the Level 3 framework relating to group governance, risk exposures, intragroup transactions and other risk management and compliance requirements came into effect on 1 July 2017. These have had no material impact on the Group’s capital position.

  • The Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) review of capital requirements

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) has been reviewing its New Zealand capital adequacy framework. The RBNZ expects to announce its finalised policy decisions in early December 2019 which include the outcomes of the RBNZ consultation relating to the amount, form and timing of implementation. This may include amongst other things:

  • increases in the risk weighting applied to the assets of banks in New Zealand;

  • increases to the percentage of capital held against those risk weights in New Zealand; and

  • changes to the regulatory capital criteria for subordinated instruments.

The overall impact on the Group depends on a number of factors. These include the outcome of the RBNZ consultations, ANZ New Zealand’s balance sheet at the time of implementation, and the outcome of other reviews currently underway by APRA.

DIVISIONAL RESULTS

Divisional Performance - continuing operations

The Group operates on a divisional structure with five continuing divisions: Australia Retail and Commercial, Institutional, New Zealand, Pacific, and Technology, Services & Operations (TSO) and Group Centre. For further information on the composition of divisions, refer to the Definitions on page 130.

The presentation of divisional results has been impacted by a number of methodology and structural changes during the period. Prior period comparatives have been restated:

  • The methodology for allocating earnings on capital at a business unit level changed from Economic Capital to Regulatory Capital. While neutral at a Group level, this change impacted net interest income at the divisional level;

  • The residual Asia Retail and Wealth businesses have been transferred from the former Asia Retail and Pacific division to TSO and Group Centre division. The remaining segment has been renamed Pacific division; and

  • ANZ’s lenders mortgage insurance, share investing, general insurance distribution and financial planning businesses which were previously part of the continuing operations of Wealth Australia now form part of the Australia Retail and Commercial division (previously named Australia division) and Wealth Australia ceases to exist as a continuing division.

The divisional results were also impacted by the adoption of two new accounting standards:

  • AASB 9 - the Group implemented an expected credit loss methodology for impairment of financial assets, and revised the classification and measurement of certain financial assets from 1 October 2018. Consequently, the Group increased its provision for credit impairment by $813 million through opening retained earnings. Comparative information has not been restated.

  • AASB 15 - the main impact of adoption is that certain items previously netted are now presented gross in operating income and operating expenses. Comparative information has been restated which increased total operating income for the September 2018 full year by $153 million and increased total operating expenses by the same amount.

Other than those described above, there have been no other significant changes.

The Divisional Results section is reported on a cash profit basis for continuing operations. For information on discontinued operations please refer to the Guide to Full Year Results on page 10.

The divisions reported are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, being the Chief Executive Officer.

1. Credit impairment charge used in the ratio relates to gross loans and advances and off-balance sheet commitments - undrawn and contingent liabilities.

Performance September 2019 v September 2018

  • Lending volumes decreased as a result of lower system credit growth, asset competition, more conservative home loan origination risk settings and execution challenges that were addressed during the year.

  • Net interest margin decreased as a result of home loan mix changes and higher discounting, the impact of official cash rate decreases on low-rate deposits, regulatory impact on credit card pricing, and higher customer remediation. This was partially offset by home loans re-pricing.

  • Other operating income decreased as the result of higher customer remediation, and lower fee income due to the removal of fees and lower volumes.

  • Operating expenses were flat with higher inflation, higher compliance costs and increased technology infrastructure spend offset by productivity initiatives including workforce and branch optimisation.

  • Credit impairment charges increased primarily due to an increase in collectively assessed credit impairment as a result of a weakening Australian economic outlook, partially offset by higher recoveries and writebacks.

1. Balance Sheet amounts include assets and liabilities reclassified as held for sale from continuing operations.

2. Credit impairment charge used in the ratio relates to gross loans and advances and off-balance sheet commitments - undrawn and contingent liabilities.

Performance September 2019 v September 2018

  • Lending volumes grew across Loans & Specialised Finance, Markets and Transaction Banking. Customer deposits grew in Markets and Transaction Banking.

  • Net interest margin ex-Markets decreased primarily due to reduction in lending margins, partially offset by higher deposit margins.

  • Other operating income increased as a result of higher Markets income across all businesses.

  • Operating expenses decreased due to a reduction in FTE and related costs, and lower ongoing software amortisation charges. This was partially offset by inflation.

  • Credit impairment charges increased primarily due to an increase in individually assessed impairment charges driven by lower write-backs and recoveries, and an increase in collectively assessed impairment charges as a result of a greater number of customer upgrades in the prior period.

1. Includes net funds management income previously reported under net funds management and insurance income.

2. Relates to OnePath Life (NZ) Limited, a controlled entity, which was sold on 30 November 2018.

3. Balance Sheet amounts include assets and liabilities reclassified as held for sale from continuing operations.

4. Credit impairment charge used in the ratio relates to gross loans and advances and off-balance sheet commitments - undrawn and contingent liabilities.

Performance September 2019 v September 2018

  • Lending and customer deposit volumes grew across all portfolios and funds under management increased during the period.

  • Net interest margin decreased as a result of compressed deposit margins and home loan mix changes.

  • Operating income decreased primarily due to the loss of income as the result of the OnePath Life (NZ) divestment, and an one-off insurance recovery in the prior period.

  • Operating expenses increased primarily due to higher regulatory compliance spend, partly offset by the OnePath Life (NZ) divestment.

  • Credit impairment charges increased primarily due to an increase in individually assessed impairment charges driven by lower write-backs and recoveries, and an increase in collectively assessed impairment charges in Commercial driven by the release of an Agri economic cycle adjustment in 2018.

The guidance provided in ASIC’s Regulatory Guide 230 has been followed when presenting this information.

Adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit

Cash profit represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the core business activities of the Group, enabling readers to assess Group and Divisional performance against prior periods and against peer institutions. To calculate cash profit, the Group excludes non-core items from statutory profit (refer to Definitions for further details). The adjustments made in arriving at cash profit are included in statutory profit which is subject to audit within the context of the external auditor’s audit of the 2019 ANZ Annual Financial Statements (when released). Cash profit is not subject to audit by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that cash profit adjustments have been determined on a consistent basis across each period presented.

Explanation of adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit - continuing operations

Revaluation of policy liabilities – OnePath Life (NZ)

When calculating policy liabilities, the projected future cash flows on insurance contracts are discounted to reflect the present value of the obligation, with the impact of changes in the market discount rate each period being reflected in the Income Statement. ANZ includes the impact on the remeasurement of insurance contracts attributable to changes in market discount rates as an adjustment to statutory profit to remove the volatility attributable to changes in market interest rates which revert to zero over the life of insurance contracts. With the sale completion of the OnePath Life (NZ) Ltd business, the March 2019 half includes the reversal of the life-to-date cash profit adjustments on the revaluation of policy liabilities sold, increasing cash profit before tax by $115 million ($81 million after tax).

Economic and revenue and expense hedges

The Group enters into economic hedges to manage its interest rate and foreign exchange risk which, in accordance with accounting standards, result in fair value gains and losses being recognised within the Income Statement. ANZ removes the fair value adjustments from cash profit since the profit or loss resulting from the hedge transactions will reverse over time to match with the profit or loss from the economically hedged item as part of cash profit. This includes gains and losses arising from approved classes of derivatives not designated in accounting hedge relationships but which are considered to be economic hedges, including hedges of larger foreign exchange denominated revenue and expense streams, primarily NZD and USD (and USD correlated), as well as ineffectiveness from designated accounting hedges.

Economic hedges comprise:

  • Funding related swaps (primarily cross currency interest rate swaps) used to convert the proceeds of foreign currency debt issuances into floating rate Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar debt. As these swaps do not qualify for hedge accounting, movements in the fair values are recorded in the Income Statement. The main drivers of these fair values are currency basis spreads and Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar fluctuations against other major funding currencies.

78

PROFIT RECONCILIATION

  • Economic hedges of select structured finance and specialised leasing transactions that do not qualify for hedge accounting. The main drivers of these fair value adjustments are movements in the Australian and New Zealand term structure of interest rates.

  • Ineffectiveness from designated accounting hedge relationships.

In the September 2019 full year, the majority of the loss on economic hedges adjusted from cash profit relates to funding related swaps, principally from narrowing basis spreads on AUD/USD and NZD/USD currency pairs partially offset by the weakening of both the AUD and NZD against USD.

The gain on revenue and expense hedges adjusted from cash profit in the September 2019 full year was mainly due to the strengthening of AUD against the NZD in the second half 2019.

Structured credit intermediation trades

ANZ entered into a series of structured credit intermediation trades prior to the Global Financial Crisis with eight US financial guarantors. This involved selling credit default swaps (CDSs) as protection over specific debt structures and purchasing CDS protection over the same structures. ANZ has subsequently exited its positions with six US financial guarantors and is monitoring the remaining two portfolios with a view to reducing the exposures when ANZ deems it cost effective relative to the perceived risk associated with a specific trade or counterparty.

The notional value of outstanding bought and sold CDSs at 30 September 2019 amounted to $0.3 billion (Mar 19: $0.3 billion; Sep 18: $0.3 billion). While both the bought and sold CDSs are measured at fair value through profit and loss, the associated fair value movements do not fully offset due to the impact of credit risk on the bought CDSs which is driven by market movements in credit spreads and AUD/USD and NZD/USD rates. The fair value of the CDSs (excluding CVA) is $19 million (Mar 19: $20 million; Sep 18: $26 million) with CVA on the bought protection of $3 million (Mar 19: $4 million; Sep 18: $4 million).

The profit and loss associated with the bought and sold protection is included as an adjustment to cash profit as it relates to a legacy business where, unless terminated early, the fair value movements are expected to reverse to zero in future periods.

  • Sale of Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank (SRCB)

On 3 January 2017, the Group announced that it had agreed to sell its 20% stake in Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank (SRCB).

The impact of SRCB has been treated as an adjustment between statutory profit to cash profit. The rationale being the loss on reclassification to held for sale was expected to be largely offset by the release of reserve gains on sale completion within the 2017 full year. The transaction was subsequently completed in the 2018 full year and the entire impact of the transaction was recognised in cash profit.

  • Credit risk on impaired derivatives (nil profit after tax impact)

Derivative credit valuation adjustments on defaulted and impaired derivative exposures are reclassified to cash credit impairment charges to reflect the manner in which the defaulted and impaired derivatives are managed.

Explanation of adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit - discontinued operations

Treasury shares adjustment

ANZ shares held by the Group in Wealth Australia discontinued operations are deemed to be Treasury shares for accounting purposes. Dividends and realised and unrealised gains and losses from these shares are reversed as they are not permitted to be recognised as income for statutory reporting purposes. In deriving cash profit, these earnings are included to ensure there is no asymmetrical impact on the Group’s profits because the Treasury shares are held to support policy liabilities which are revalued through the Income Statement. With the sale completion of the life insurance business to Zurich, there are no further ANZ shares held by the Group in Wealth Australia discontinued operations (Mar 19: 15.5 million shares; Sep 18: 15.5 million shares).

  • Revaluation of policy liabilities - Wealth Australia discontinued operations

When calculating policy liabilities, the projected future cash flows on insurance contracts are discounted to reflect the present value of the obligation, with the impact of changes in the market discount rate each period being reflected in the Income Statement. ANZ includes the impact on the remeasurement of the insurance contract attributable to changes in market discount rates as an adjustment to statutory profit to remove the volatility attributable to changes in market interest rates which reverts to zero over the life of the insurance contract. With the sale completion of the life insurance business to Zurich, the September 2019 half includes the reversal of the life-to-date cash profit adjustments on the revaluation of policy liabilities sold, reducing cash profit before tax by $22 million ($15 million after tax).

1. Current and prior periods include discontinued operations.

2. The Company completed a $3.0 billion on-market share buy-back of ANZ ordinary shares purchasing $1,120 million worth of shares in the September 2019 full year (September 18 full year: $1,880 million) resulting in 42.0 million shares being cancelled in the September 2019 full year (September 18 full year: 66.7 million).

3. No new shares were issued under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) for the 2019 Interim dividend (nil shares for the 2018 final dividend; nil shares for the 2018 Interim dividend) as the shares were purchased on-market and provided directly to the shareholders participating in the DRP. On-market share purchases for the DRP in the September 2019 full year were $432 million (Sep 18 full year: $392 million).

4. The successor fund transfer performed in preparation for the sale of the Group’s wealth business to Zurich and IOOF completed on 13 April 2019. As a result, the Group no longer eliminates the ANZ shares previously held in Wealth Australia discontinued operations (treasury shares).

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of preparation

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

  • have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards (AASs);

  • should be read in conjunction with ANZ’s Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 30 September 2019 (when released) and any public announcements made by the Parent Entity and its controlled entities (the Group) for the full year ended 30 September 2019 in accordance with the continuous disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules ;

  • do not include all notes of the type normally included in ANZ’s Annual Financial Report;

  • are presented in Australian dollars unless otherwise stated; and

  • were approved by the Board of Directors on 30 October 2019.

i) Accounting policies

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting policies and using methods of computation consistent with those applied in the 2018 ANZ Annual Financial Report with the exception of policies associated with new standards adopted during the period as discussed below.

Discontinued operations are separately presented from the results of the continuing operations as a single line item ‘profit/(loss) after tax from discontinued operations’ in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement have been presented on a continuing basis. Assets and liabilities of discontinued operations have been presented as held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as at 30 September 2019.

Accounting standards adopted during the period

AASB 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9)

The Group has applied AASB 9 effective from 1 October 2018 (with the exception of the ‘own credit’ requirements relating to financial liabilities designated as measured at fair value, which were early adopted by the Group effective from 1 October 2013). In addition the Group chose to early adopt AASB 2017-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (AASB 2017-6) effective from 1 October 2018.

AASB 9 and AASB 2017-6 stipulate new requirements for the impairment of financial assets, classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and general hedge accounting. Details of the key new requirements are outlined below, and a reconciliation of the transitional impact at 1 October 2018 is set out in Note 16.

Impairment

AASB 9 introduces a new impairment model based on expected credit losses (ECL). This model is applied to:

  • Financial assets measured at amortised cost;

  • Debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI);

  • Lease receivables; and

  • Loan commitments and financial guarantees not measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).

Expected credit loss impairment model

The measurement of expected credit losses reflects an unbiased, probability weighted prediction which evaluates a range of scenarios and takes into account the time value of money, past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

Expected credit losses are either measured over 12 months or the expected lifetime of the financial asset, depending on credit deterioration since origination, according to the following three-stage approach:

  • Stage 1: At the origination of a financial asset, and where there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since origination, an allowance equivalent to 12 months ECL is recognised reflecting the expected credit losses resulting from default events that are possible within the next 12 months from the reporting date. For instruments with a remaining maturity of less than 12 months, expected credit losses are estimated based on default events that are possible over the remaining time to maturity.

  • Stage 2: Where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since origination, an allowance equivalent to lifetime ECL is recognised reflecting expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. If credit risk were to improve in a subsequent period such that the increase in credit risk since origination is no longer considered significant, the exposure returns to a Stage 1 classification and a 12 month ECL applies.

  • Stage 3: Where there is objective evidence of impairment, an allowance equivalent to lifetime ECL is recognised.

Expected credit losses are estimated on a collective basis for exposures in Stage 1 and Stage 2, and on either a collective or individual basis when transferred to Stage 3.

Significant increase in credit risk (SICR)

Stage 2 assets are those that have experienced a significant increase in credit risk (SICR) since origination. In determining what constitutes a SICR, the Group considers both qualitative and quantitative information:

  • i. Internal credit rating grade

  • For the majority of portfolios, the primary indicator of a SICR is a significant deterioration in the internal credit rating grade of a facility since origination and is measured by application of thresholds.

For non-retail portfolios, a SICR is determined by comparing the Customer Credit Rating (CCR) applicable to a facility at reporting date to the CCR at origination of that facility. A CCR is assigned to each borrower which reflects the probability of default of the borrower and incorporates both borrower

89

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

and non-borrower specific information, including forward looking information. CCRs are subject to review at least annually or more frequently when an event occurs which could affect the credit risk of the customer.

For retail portfolios, a SICR is determined by comparing each facility’s scenario weighted lifetime probability of default at the reporting date to the scenario weighted lifetime probability of default at origination. The scenario weighted lifetime probability of default may increase significantly if:

  • there has been a deterioration in the economic outlook, or an increase in economic uncertainty; or

  • there has been a deterioration in the customer’s overall credit position, or ability to manage their credit obligations.

  • ii. Backstop criteria

The Group uses 30 days past due arrears as a backstop criteria for both non-retail and retail portfolios. For retail portfolios only, facilities are required to demonstrate three to six months of good payment behaviour prior to returning to Stage 1.

Measurement of expected credit loss

ECL is calculated as the product of the following credit risk factors at a facility level, discounted to incorporate the time value of money:

  • Exposure at default (EAD) - the expected balance sheet exposure at default taking into account repayments of principal and interest, expected additional drawdowns and accrued interest;

  • Probability of default (PD) - the estimate of the likelihood that a borrower will default over a given period; and

  • Loss given default (LGD) - the expected loss in the event of the borrower defaulting, expressed as a percentage of the facility's EAD, taking into account direct and indirect recovery costs.

These credit risk factors are adjusted for current and forward looking information through the use of macro-economic variables.

Forward looking information

In applying forward looking information for estimating ECL, the Group considers four probability-weighted forecast economic scenarios as follows:

  • (i) Base case scenario

The base case scenario is ANZ’s view of the most likely future macro-economic conditions. It reflects management’s assumptions used for strategic planning and budgeting, and also informs the Group Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) which is the process the Group applies in its strategic and capital planning over a 3 year time horizon;

  • (ii) Upside and (iii) Downside scenarios

The upside and downside scenarios are fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions (that is, they are not based on the economic conditions prevailing at balance date) and are based on a combination of more optimistic (in the case of the upside) and pessimistic (in the case of the downside) economic events and uncertainty over long term horizons; and

  • (iv) Severe downside scenario

The severe downside scenario is fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions and accounts for the potentially severe impact of less likely extremely adverse economic conditions. It reflects macro-economic conditions of a downturn economic event with a probability of occurrence once in every 25 years.

The four scenarios are described in terms of macro-economic variables used in the PD, LGD and EAD models (collectively the ECL models) depending on the portfolio and country of the borrower. Examples of the variables include unemployment rates, GDP growth rates, house price indices, commercial property price indices and consumer price indices.

Probability weighting each scenario is determined by management by considering risks and uncertainties surrounding the base case scenario, as well as specific portfolio considerations where required. The Group’s Credit and Market Risk Committee (CMRC) is responsible for reviewing and approving forecast economic scenarios and the associated probability weights applied to each scenario.

Where applicable, adjustments may be made to account for situations where known or expected risks have not been adequately addressed in the modelling process. CMRC is responsible for approving such adjustments.

Expected Life

When estimating ECL for exposures in Stage 2 and 3, the Group considers the expected lifetime over which it is exposed to credit risk.

For non-retail portfolios, the Group uses the maximum contractual period as the expected lifetime for non-revolving credit facilities. For non-retail revolving credit facilities, such as corporate lines of credit, the expected life reflects the Group’s contractual right to withdraw a facility as part of a contractually agreed annual review, after taking into account the applicable notice period.

For retail portfolios, the expected lifetime is determined using behavioural term, taking into account expected prepayment behaviour and substantial modifications.

Definition of default, credit impaired and write-offs

The definition of default used in measuring expected credit losses is aligned to the definition used for internal credit risk management purposes across all portfolios. This definition is also in line with the regulatory definition of default. Default occurs when there are indicators that a debtor is unlikely to fully satisfy contractual credit obligations to the Group, or the exposure is 90 days past due.

Financial assets, including those that are well secured, are considered credit impaired for financial reporting purposes when they default.

When there is no realistic probability of recovery, loans are written off against the related impairment allowance on completion of the Group’s internal processes and when all reasonably expected recoveries have been collected. In subsequent periods, any recoveries of amounts previously written-off are credited to the credit impairment charge in the income statement.

Modified financial assets

If the terms of a financial asset are modified or an existing financial asset is replaced with a new one for either credit or commercial reasons, an assessment is made to determine if the changes to the terms of the existing financial asset are considered substantial. This assessment considers both

90

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

changes in cash flows arising from the modified terms as well as changes in the overall instrument risk profile; for example, changes in the principal (credit limit), term, or type of underlying collateral. Where a modification is considered non-substantial, the existing financial asset is not derecognised and its date of origination continues to be used to determine SICR. Where a modification is considered substantial, the existing financial asset is derecognised and a new financial asset is recognised at its fair value on the modification date, which also becomes the date of origination used to determine SICR for this new asset.

Classification and measurement

Financial assets - general

There are three measurement classifications for financial assets under AASB 9: amortised cost, fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Financial assets are classified into these measurement classifications on the basis of two criteria:

  • the business model within which the financial asset is managed; and

  • the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset (specifically whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest).

The resultant financial asset classifications are as follows:

  • Amortised cost: Financial assets with contractual cash flows that comprise solely payments of principal and interest only and which are held in a business model whose objective is to collect their cash flows;

  • FVOCI: Financial assets with contractual cash flows that comprise solely payments of principal and interest only and which are held in a business model whose objective is to collect their cash flows or to sell; and

  • FVTPL: Any other financial assets not falling into the categories above are measured at FVTPL.

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets

A financial asset may be irrevocably designated at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition when the designation eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets - equity instruments

Non-traded equity investments may be designated at FVOCI on an instrument by instrument basis. If this election is made, gains or losses are not reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss on disposal of the investment. However, gains or losses may be reclassified within equity.

Financial liabilities

The classification and measurement requirements for financial liabilities under AASB 9 are largely consistent with AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (AASB 139) with the exception that for financial liabilities designated as measured at fair value, gains or losses relating to changes in the entity’s own credit risk are included in other comprehensive income, except where doing so would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. This part of the standard was early adopted by the Group on 1 October 2013.

Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost, or fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading. Additionally, financial liabilities can be designated at FVTPL where:

  • The designation eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch which would otherwise arise; or

  • A group of financial liabilities are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy; or

  • The financial liability contains one or more embedded derivatives unless: a) the embedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows that otherwise would be required by the contract, or

  • b) the embedded derivative is closely related to the host financial liability.

General hedge accounting

AASB 9 introduces new hedge accounting requirements which more closely align accounting with risk management activities undertaken when hedging financial and non-financial risks. The Group has exercised an accounting policy choice to continue to apply the AASB 139 hedge accounting requirements until the International Accounting Standards Board’s ongoing Dynamic Risk Management (macro hedging) project is completed.

AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (AASB 15)

The Group adopted AASB 15 from 1 October 2018 which resulted in changes in accounting policies and adjustments to amounts recognised in the full year condensed consolidated financial statements. The standard requires identification of distinct performance obligations within a contract, and allocation of the transaction price of the contract to those performance obligations. Revenue is then recognised as each performance obligation is satisfied. The standard also provides guidance on whether an entity is acting as a principal or an agent which impacts the presentation of revenue on a gross or net basis. In accordance with the transitional provisions of AASB 15, the Group has adopted the full retrospective transition approach whereby the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard has been recognised as an adjustment to opening retained earnings as at 1 October 2017 and comparative information for the 2018 reporting period has been restated.

The adoption of AASB 15 resulted in the following accounting changes:

  • i) Recognition of trail commission revenue: trail commission revenue previously recognised over time is now recognised at the time the Group initially distributes the underlying product to the customer where it is highly probable the revenue will not need to be reversed in future periods.

This policy change resulted in an increase to the opening balances of Other assets of $32 million, Deferred tax liabilities of $10 million and Retained earnings of $22 million as at 1 October 2017 to recognise revenue that qualifies for upfront recognition under AASB 15 but was not previously recognised under AASB 118 Revenue (AASB 118). The change did not impact net profit or earnings per share in the comparative period.

  • ii) Presentation: Certain credit card loyalty costs and other costs will be presented as operating expenses where the Group has assessed that it is acting as principal (rather than an agent). Previously these costs were presented as a reduction in other operating income. In addition, certain

incentives received from card scheme providers related to card marketing activities will be presented as Operating income where the Group has assessed that it is acting as principal (rather than an agent). Previously these incentives were presented as a reduction in Operating expenses.

The presentation of these costs under AASB 15 increased other operating income and operating expenses equally by $91 million and $62 million in the comparative periods ending 30 September 2018 and 31 March 2018 respectively. The changes did not impact net profit or earnings per share in the comparative periods.

A minor balance sheet reclassification associated with credit card loyalty programs is set out in Note 16.

ii) Basis of measurement

The financial information has been prepared in accordance with the historical cost basis except that the following assets and liabilities are stated at their fair value:

  • derivative financial instruments as well as, in the case of fair value hedges, the fair value adjustment on the underlying hedged exposure;

  • financial assets and liabilities held for trading;

  • financial assets and liabilities designed at fair value through profit and loss;

  • available-for-sale financial assets (applicable prior to 1 October 2018);

  • financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (applicable from 1 October 2018);

  • assets and liabilities held for sale (except those at carrying value as per Note 10).

In accordance with AASB 1038 Life Insurance Contracts , life insurance liabilities are measured using the Margin on Services model.

In accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits , defined benefit obligations are measured using the Projected Unit Credit method.

iii) Use of estimates, assumptions and judgements

The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires the use of management judgement, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and the application of accounting policies. Discussion of the critical accounting estimates and judgements, which include complex or subjective decisions or assessments are provided in Note 1 of the 2019 ANZ Annual Financial Report – (when released). Such estimates and judgements are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

Investments in associates

At 30 September 2019, the impairment assessment of non-lending assets identified that two of the Group’s associate investments AMMB Holdings Berhad (AmBank) and PT Bank Pan Indonesia (PT Panin) had indicators of impairment. Although their market value (based on share price) was below their carrying value, no impairment was recognised as their carrying values are supported by their value in use (VIU) calculations.

The VIU calculations are sensitive to a number of key assumptions, including discount rates, long term growth rates, future profitability and capital levels. A change in key assumptions could have an adverse impact on the recoverable amount of the investment. The key assumptions used in the VIU calculations are outlined below:

Investment securities (comparative information shown in available-for-sale assets)

As a result of persistent illiquidity of the quoted share price of Bank of Tianjin (BoT), the Group determines the fair value based on a valuation model using comparable bank pricing multiples. Judgement is required in both the selection of the model and inputs used.

Customer remediation provision

At 30 September 2019, the Group has recognised provisions of $1,139 million (Mar 19: $698 million; Sep 18: $602 million) in respect of customer remediation which includes provisions for expected refunds to customers, remediation project costs and costs associated and related customer and regulatory claims, penalties and litigation outcomes.

Determining the amount of the provisions, which represent management’s best estimate of the cost of settling the identified matters, requires the exercise of significant judgement. It will often be necessary to form a view on a number of different assumptions, including the number of impacted customers, the average refund per customer, associated remediation project costs, and the implications of regulatory exposures and customer claims having regard to their specific facts and circumstances.

Consequently, the appropriateness of the underlying assumptions is reviewed on a regular basis against actual experience and other relevant evidence including expert legal advice, and adjustments are made to the provisions where appropriate.

Assets and liabilities held for sale

When classifying assets and liabilities as held for sale, judgement is required when assessing whether it is highly probable that contracted sales will complete within 12 months after balance date, particularly when the sale is subject to third party approvals. Management regularly reviews the status of each sale transaction to ensure the classification remains appropriate.

Management is required to exercise significant judgement when assessing the fair value less costs to sell for assets and liabilities held for sale. The judgemental factors include determining: costs to sell, allocation of goodwill, indemnities provided under the sale contract and consideration received - particularly where elements of consideration are contingent in nature. Any impairment we record is based on the best available evidence of fair value compared to the carrying value before the impairment. The final sale price may be different to the fair value we estimate when recording the impairment.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Management regularly assess the appropriateness of the underlying assumptions against actual outcomes and other relevant evidence and adjustments are made to fair value where appropriate.

Useful lives of software

Management judgement is used to assess the useful life of software assets. A number of factors can influence the useful lives of software assets, including changes to business strategy, significant divestments and the pace of technological change.

The Group reassess the useful lives of software assets on a semi-annual basis. During the September 2018 full year, certain software assets in the Institutional and Australia Retail and Commercial divisions had their useful life reassessed.

iv) Rounding of amounts

The amounts contained in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been rounded to the nearest million dollars, except where

otherwise indicated, as permitted by Australian Securities and Investments Commission Corporations Instrument 2016/191 .

v) Future accounting developments

AASB 9 - General hedge accounting

AASB 9 introduces new hedge accounting requirements which more closely align accounting with risk management activities undertaken when hedging financial and non-financial risks.

AASB 9 provides the Group with an accounting policy choice to continue to apply AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (AASB 139) hedge accounting requirements until the International Accounting Standards Board’s ongoing project on macro hedge accounting is completed. The Group currently applies the hedge accounting requirements of AASB 139.

AASB 16 Leases (AASB 16)

AASB 16 is effective for the Group from 1 October 2019 and replaces the previous standard AASB 117 Leases (AASB 117). AASB 16 primarily impacts the Group’s property and technology leases which were previously classified as operating leases. Under AASB 117, operating leases were not recognised on balance sheet and rent payments were expensed over the lease term.

Under AASB 16, lessees must recognise all leases (except for leases of low value assets and short term leases) on balance sheet under a single accounting model. Accordingly, the Group will recognise its right to use an underlying leased asset over the lease term as a right-of-use (ROU) asset, and its obligation to make lease payments as a lease liability. In the income statement, the Group will recognise depreciation expense on the ROU asset and interest expense on the lease liability. As a result, lease expenses will be higher in the early periods of a lease and lower in the later periods of the lease compared to the previous standard where expenses were constant over the lease term. Cumulative expenses over the life of a lease will not change.

The Group will apply the modified retrospective transition approach whereby initial lease liabilities are recognised based on the present value of remaining lease payments as of the transition date. The initial ROU asset recognised for certain large commercial and retail leases will be measured as if AASB 16 had always been applied to the leases. For all other leases, the initial ROU asset will be measured as equal to the initial lease liability. Based on this transition approach, the Group expects to recognise an increase in liabilities of $1.7 billion and an increase in assets of $1.6 billion. This is expected to result in a reduction to opening retained earnings of $82 million and an increase in deferred tax assets of $43 million as of 1 October 2019. Comparative information from prior periods will not be restated.

The implementation of AASB 16 requires management to make certain key judgements including the determination of lease terms, discount rates and identifying arrangements that contain a lease. These estimates may be refined as the Group finalises its implementation of the standard in the first half of the 2020 financial year.

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform

Interbank offered rates (IBORs), such as LIBOR, are a key reference rate for derivatives, loans and securities for global financial markets. In response to concerns about the transparency and liquidity of IBOR rates, regulators in a number of jurisdictions across the globe are well advanced in developing benchmark rates to phase out and replace IBORs, these projects are collectively known as ‘IBOR Reform’. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) is also considering the financial reporting implications of IBOR reform which is expected to impact elements of financial instrument accounting, including hedge accounting, loan modifications, fair value methodologies and disclosures.

The IASB project is split into two phases: Phase 1 deals with pre-replacement issues (issues affecting financial reporting in the period before the replacement of IBOR’s); and Phase 2 deals with replacement issues (issues affecting financial reporting when existing IBOR’s are replaced).

In September 2019, the IASB issued a final standard, Interest Rate Benchmark Reform—Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 which focuses on ‘pre-rate replacement issues’ and provides exceptions to specific hedge accounting requirements under IAS 39 and IFRS 9 so that entities will be able to apply those hedge accounting requirements under an assumption that the interest rate benchmark is not altered as a result of the interest rate benchmark reform. In October 2019, AASB adopted these amendments in AASB 2019-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform.

Although the Group anticipates the new standard, once adopted, will provide certain relief in relation to hedge accounting requirements, for 30 September 2019 reporting purposes, it has considered the existing portfolio of hedge accounted relationships in light of:

  • the significant uncertainty surrounding the method and timing of transition away from IBORs; and

  • ongoing application and reliance in capital markets on IBOR’s for financial instrument pricing.

As result of the above factors, the Group has concluded that continuation of hedge accounting relationships for potentially impacted hedge relationship remains appropriate.

The Group is considering the new standard which is effective on 1 October 2020 but may be adopted earlier.

6. Dividend payout ratio is calculated using the proposed 2019 final dividend of $2,268 million (not shown in the above table). The proposed 2019 final dividend of $2,268 million is based on the forecast number of ordinary shares on issue at the dividend record date. Dividend payout ratios for the March 2019 half and the September 2018 full year were calculated using actual dividend paid of $2,267 million and $4,612 million respectively.

Ordinary Shares

The Directors propose that a final dividend of 80 cents be paid on each eligible fully paid ANZ ordinary share on 18 December 2019. The proposed 2019 final dividend will be partially franked at 70% for Australian tax purposes. New Zealand imputation credits of NZD 9 cents per ordinary share will also be attached.

ANZ has a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) and a Bonus Option Plan (BOP) that will operate in respect of the proposed 2019 final dividend.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period (after eliminating ANZ shares held within the Group known as treasury shares). Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the basic EPS calculation for the effect of dilutive potential ordinary shares.

1. The successor fund transfer performed in preparation for the sales of the Group’s wealth businesses to Zurich and IOOF was completed on 13 April 2019. Post this date, treasury shares held in Wealth Australia discontinued operations ceased to be eliminated in the Group’s consolidated financial statements and are included in the denominator used in calculating earnings per share. If the weighted average number of treasury shares held in Wealth Australia discontinued operations was included in the denominator used in calculating earnings per share from continuing operations, basic earnings per share from continuing operations for the September 2019 half would have been 107.9 cents (Mar 19 half: 113.5 cents; Sep 19 full year: 221.4 cents; Sep 18 full year: 244.4 cents) and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the September 2019 half would have been 103.5 cents (Mar 19 half: 108.1 cents; Sep 19 full year: 212.4 cents; Sep 18 full year: 233.1 cents).

2. On adoption of AASB 9 on 1 October 2018, the Group increased the collectively assessed provision by $647 million. Comparative information has not been restated. Refer to Note 16 for further details.

3. $500 million of collectively assessed provisions and $26 million of individually assessed provision for credit impairment attributable to off-balance sheet credit related commitments at 30 September 2018 were reclassified from Net loans and advances at amortised cost to Other provisions to enhance comparability with current period presentation.

8. Allowance for expected credit losses

As described in Note 1, the Group adopted AASB 9 effective from 1 October 2018 which resulted in the application of an expected credit loss (ECL) model for measuring impairment of financial assets and amendments to the presentation of credit impairment information for the March and September 2019 halves. 2018 full year information has not been restated.

The following tables present the movement in the allowance for ECL (including allowance for ECL on financial assets held for sale) for the March and September 2019 halves.

10. Discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale

i) Discontinued operations

On 17 October 2017, the Group announced it had agreed to sell its OnePath P&I business and ADGs businesses to IOOF. The sale of the ADGs business completed on 1 October 2018. On 17 October 2019, the Group announced it had agreed a revised sale price for its OnePath P&I business and ADGs to IOOF of $850 million, being a $125 million reduction from the original sale price of $975 million announced in October 2017. The new price of $850 million includes approximately $25 million that ANZ has already received for the sale of ADGs in October 2018. The revised terms reflect changing market conditions and include lower overall warranty caps as well as some changes to the strategic alliance arrangements. Subject to APRA approval, the Group expects the transaction to complete in the first quarter of calendar year 2020. The impact of the reduction in price has been reflected in the 2019 financial results.

On 12 December 2017, ANZ announced that it had agreed to the sale of its life insurance business to Zurich Financial Services Australia (Zurich) and regulatory approval was obtained on 10 October 2018. The transaction was completed on 31 May 2019.

As a result of the sale transactions outlined above, the financial results of the businesses being divested and associated Group reclassification and consolidation impacts are treated as discontinued operations from a reporting perspective.

Details of the financial performance and cash flows of discontinued operations are shown below.

ii) Assets and liabilities held for sale

At 30 September 2019, assets and liabilities held for sale were re-measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as deferred tax assets, financial assets and contractual rights under insurance contracts, which are specifically exempt from this requirement and continue to be recognised at their carrying value upon reclassification to held for sale.

In addition to the assets and liabilities associated with the Group’s discontinued operations, assets and liabilities held for sale in the prior periods contain the assets and liabilities of other assets or disposal groups, subject to sale, which do not meet the criteria to classify as a discontinued operation under the accounting standards.

1. Contributions to profit reflect the IFRS equivalent results adjusted to align with the Group’s financial year end which may differ from the published results of these entities. Excludes gains or losses on disposal or valuation adjustments.

14. Contingent liabilities and contingent assets

There are outstanding court proceedings, claims and possible claims for and against the Group. Where relevant, expert legal advice has been obtained and, in the light of such advice, provisions and/or disclosures as deemed appropriate have been made (Note 21 of the 2019 Annual Financial Report (when released) will contain a description of provisions held). In some instances we have not disclosed the estimated financial impact of the individual items either because it is not practicable to do so or because such disclosure may prejudice the interests of the Group.

Note 33 of the 2019 ANZ Annual Financial Report (when released) will contain a description of contingent liabilities and contingent assets as at 30 September 2019. A summary of some of those contingent liabilities is set out below.

Regulatory and customer exposures

In recent years there has been an increase in the number of matters on which the Group engages with its regulators. There have also been significant increases in the nature and scale of regulatory investigations and reviews, civil and criminal enforcement actions (whether by court action or otherwise), formal and informal inquiries, regulatory supervisory activities and the quantum of fines issued by regulators, particularly against financial institutions both in Australia and globally. The Group has received various notices and requests for information from its regulators as part of both industry-wide and Group-specific reviews and has also made disclosures to its regulators at its own instigation. The nature of these interactions can be wide ranging and, for example, currently include a range of matters including responsible lending practices, product suitability and distribution, interest and fees and the entitlement to charge them, customer remediation, wealth advice, insurance distribution, pricing, competition, conduct in financial markets and financial transactions, capital market transactions, anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing obligations, reporting and disclosure obligations and product disclosure documentation. There may be exposures to customers which are additional to any regulatory exposures. These could include class actions, individual claims or customer remediation or compensation activities. The outcomes and total costs associated with such reviews and possible exposures remain uncertain.

Bank fees litigation and periodical payment remediation and ASIC action

A litigation funder commenced a class action against the Company in 2010, followed by a second similar class action in March 2013. The applicants contended that certain exception fees (honour, dishonour and non-payment fees on transaction accounts and late payment and over-limit fees on credit cards) were unenforceable penalties and that various of the fees were also unenforceable under statutory provisions governing unconscionable conduct, unfair contract terms and unjust transactions. The claims in the March 2013 class action failed and have been dismissed.

The original claims in the 2010 class action have been dismissed. In 2017, a new claim was added to the 2010 class action, in relation to the Company’s entitlement to charge certain periodical payment non-payment fees. Part of the class of customers had already received remediation payments from the Company. An agreement to settle the claim was reached in December 2018. The settlement is subject to court approval.

In July 2019, ASIC commenced civil penalty proceedings against the Company in relation to the charging of fees for periodical payments in certain circumstances between August 2003 and February 2016. ASIC seeks civil penalties in respect of alleged false or misleading representations and unconscionable conduct. ASIC also alleges that the Company engaged in misleading or deceptive conduct and breached certain statutory obligations as a financial services licensee. The matter is at an early stage. The outcomes and total costs remain uncertain. The Company is defending the allegations.

  • Benchmark/rate actions

In July and August 2016, class action complaints were brought in the United States District Court against local and international banks, including the Company – one action relating to the bank bill swap rate (BBSW), and one action relating to the Singapore Interbank Offered Rate (SIBOR) and the Singapore Swap Offer Rate (SOR). The class actions are expressed to apply to persons and entities that engaged in US-based transactions in financial instruments that were priced, benchmarked, and/or settled based on BBSW or SIBOR. The claimants seek damages or compensation in amounts not specified, and allege that the defendant banks, including the Company, violated US anti-trust laws and (in the BBSW case only) antiracketeering laws, the Commodity Exchange Act, and unjust enrichment principles. The Company is defending the proceedings. The matters are at an early stage.

In February 2017, the South African Competition Commission commenced proceedings against local and international banks including the Company alleging breaches of the cartel provisions of the South African Competition Act in respect of trading in the South African rand. The potential civil penalty or other financial impact is uncertain. The matter is at an early stage.

108

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  • Capital raising actions

In June 2018, the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions commenced criminal proceedings against the Company and a senior employee alleging that they were knowingly concerned in cartel conduct by the joint lead managers of the Company’s August 2015 underwritten institutional equity placement of approximately 80.8 million ordinary shares. The matter is at an early stage. The Company and its senior employee are defending the allegations.

In September 2018, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) commenced civil penalty proceedings against the Company alleging failure to comply with continuous disclosure obligations in connection with the Company’s August 2015 underwritten institutional equity placement. ASIC alleges the Company should have advised the market that the joint lead managers took up approximately 25.5 million ordinary shares of the placement. The matter is at an early stage. The Company is defending the allegations.

  • Franchisee litigation

In February 2018, two related class actions were brought against the Company alleging breaches of contract and unconscionable conduct in relation to lending to 7-Eleven franchisees. An agreement to settle the claims against the Company was reached in March 2019. The settlement is subject to court approval.

  • Royal Commission

The Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry released its final report on 4 February 2019. The findings and recommendations of the Commission are resulting in additional costs and may lead to further exposures, including exposures associated with further regulator activity or potential customer exposures such as class actions, individual claims or customer remediation or compensation activities. The outcomes and total costs associated with these possible exposures remain uncertain.

  • Security recovery actions

Various claims have been made or are anticipated, arising from security recovery actions taken to resolve impaired assets. These claims will be defended.

  • Warranties and Indemnities

The Group has provided warranties, indemnities and other commitments in favour of the purchaser and other persons in connection with various disposals of businesses and assets and other transactions, covering a range of matters and risks. It is exposed to potential claims under those warranties, indemnities and commitments.

15. Significant Events Since the End of the Financial Year

On 17 October, the Group announced it had agreed a revised sale price for its OnePath P&I business and ADGs to IOOF of $850 million, being a $125 million reduction from the original sale price of $975 million announced in October 2017. The new price of $850 million includes approximately $25 million that ANZ has already received for the sale of ADGs in October 2018. The revised terms reflect changing market conditions and include lower overall warranty caps as well as some changes to the strategic alliance arrangements. Subject to APRA approval, the Group expects the transaction to complete in the first quarter of calendar year 2020. The impact of the reduction in price has been reflected in the 2019 financial results.

Other than the matter above, there have been no significant events from 30 September 2019 to the date of signing this report.

i) Changes to comparatives including the impact of AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (AASB 15)

1. $500 million of collectively assessed and $26 million of individually assessed provisions for credit impairment attributable to off-balance sheet credit related commitments at 30 September 2018 were reclassified from Net loans and advances at amortised cost to Other provisions to enhance comparability with current period presentation.

2. The Group adopted AASB 15 in this reporting period with comparatives restated. The impact of this policy change on the reported 30 September 2018 balance sheet was an increase in Other assets of $32 million, an increase in Deferred tax liabilities of $10 million and an increase in Retained earnings of $22 million, reflecting revenue that qualifies for upfront recognition under AASB 15 but was not previously recognised under AASB 118.

3. Upon adoption of AASB 15, certain liabilities associated with credit card loyalty programs have been reclassified from Provisions to Payables and other liabilities.

In addition to the balance sheet impact above, upon adoption of AASB 15 certain items previously netted are now presented gross in operating income and operating expenses. This increased total operating income and total operating expenses by $128 million for the 2019 financial year. Comparative information has been restated which increased total operating income and total operating expenses by $153 million for the 2018 financial year.

DEFINITIONS

AASB - Australian Accounting Standards Board. The term “AASB” is commonly used when identifying Australian Accounting Standards issued by the AASB.

APRA - Australian Prudential Regulation Authority.

APS - ADI Prudential Standard.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise coins, notes, money at call, balances held with central banks, liquid settlement balances (readily convertible to known amounts of cash which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value) and securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repos) in less than three months.

Cash profit is an additional measure of profit which is prepared on a basis other than in accordance with accounting standards. Cash profit represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the core business activities of the Group, enabling readers to assess Group and Divisional performance against prior periods and against peer institutions. To calculate cash profit, the Group excludes non-core items from statutory profit as noted below. These items are calculated consistently period on period so as not to discriminate between positive and negative adjustments.

Gains and losses are adjusted where they are significant, or have the potential to be significant in any one period, and fall into one of three categories:

  1. gains or losses included in earnings arising from changes in tax, legal or accounting legislation or other non-core items not associated with the core operations of the Group;

  2. treasury shares, revaluation of policy liabilities, economic hedging impacts and similar accounting items that represent timing differences that will reverse through earnings in the future; and

  3. accounting reclassifications between individual line items that do not impact reported results, such as policyholders tax gross up.

Cash profit is not a measure of cash flow or profit determined on a cash accounting basis.

Collectively assessed provision under AASB 139 is the provision for credit losses that are inherent in the portfolio but not able to be individually identified. A collectively assessed provision may only be recognised when a loss event has already occurred. Losses expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, are not recognised.

Collectively assessed allowance for expected credit loss under AASB 9 represents the Expected Credit Loss (ECL). This incorporates forward looking information and does not require an actual loss event to have occurred for an impairment provision to be recognised.

Covered bonds are bonds issued by an ADI to external investors secured against a pool of the ADI’s assets (the cover pool) assigned to a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity. The primary assets forming the cover pool are mortgage loans. The mortgages remain on the issuer’s balance sheet. The covered bond holders have dual recourse to the issuer and the cover pool assets. The mortgages included in the cover pool cannot be otherwise pledged or disposed of but may be repurchased and substituted in order to maintain the credit quality of the pool. The Group issues covered bonds as part of its funding activities.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss resulting from the failure of ANZ’s customers and counterparties to honour or perform fully the terms of a loan or contract.

Credit risk weighted assets (CRWA) represent assets which are weighted for credit risk according to a set formula as prescribed in APS 112/113.

Customer deposits represent term deposits, other deposits bearing interest, deposits not bearing interest and borrowing corporations’ debt excluding securitisation deposits.

Customer remediation includes provisions for expected refunds to customers, remediation project costs and related customer and regulatory claims, penalties and litigation outcomes.

Derivative credit valuation adjustment (CVA) - Over the life of a derivative instrument, ANZ uses a model to adjust fair value to take into account the impact of counterparty credit quality. The methodology calculates the present value of expected losses over the life of the financial instrument as a function of probability of default, loss given default, expected credit risk exposure and an asset correlation factor. Impaired derivatives are also subject to a CVA.

Dividend payout ratio is the total ordinary dividend payment divided by profit attributable to shareholders of the Company.

Gross loans and advances (GLA) is made up of loans and advances, capitalised brokerage/mortgage origination fees less unearned income.

Impaired assets are those financial assets where doubt exists as to whether the full contractual amount will be received in a timely manner, or where concessional terms have been provided because of the financial difficulties of the customer. Financial assets are impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of a loss event that occurred prior to the reporting date, and that loss event has had an impact, which can be reliably estimated, on the expected future cash flows of the individual asset or portfolio of assets.

Impaired loans comprise drawn facilities where the customer’s status is defined as impaired.

Individually assessed allowance for expected credit losses is assessed on a case-by-case basis for all individually managed impaired assets taking into consideration factors such as the realisable value of security (or other credit mitigants), the likely return available upon liquidation or bankruptcy, legal uncertainties, estimated costs involved in recovery, the market price of the exposure in secondary markets and the amount and timing of expected receipts and recoveries.

Interest rate risk in the banking book (IRRBB) relates to the potential adverse impact of changes in market interest rates on ANZ’s future net interest income. The risk generally arises from:

  1. Repricing and yield curve risk - the risk to earnings or market value as a result of changes in the overall level of interest rates and/or the relativity of these rates across the yield curve;

  2. Basis risk - the risk to earnings or market value arising from volatility in the interest margin applicable to banking book items; and

  3. Optionality risk - the risk to earnings or market value arising from the existence of stand-alone or embedded options in banking book items.

Internationally comparable ratios are ANZ’s interpretation of the regulations documented in the Basel Committee publications: “Basel 3: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems” (June 2011) and “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards” (June 2006). They also include differences identified in APRA’s information paper entitled International Capital Comparison Study (13 July 2015).

Level 1 in the context of APRA supervision, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited consolidated with certain approved subsidiaries.

Level 2 in the context of APRA supervision, the consolidated ANZ Group excluding associates, insurance and funds management entities, commercial non-financial entities and certain securitisation vehicles.

DEFINITIONS

Net interest margin is net interest income as a percentage of average interest earning assets.

Net loans and advances represent gross loans and advances less allowance for credit losses.

Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) is the ratio of the amount of available stable funding (ASF) to the amount of required stable funding (RSF) defined by APRA. The amount of ASF is the portion of an Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions (ADI) capital and liabilities expected to be a reliable source of funds over a one year time horizon. The amount of RSF is a function of the liquidity characteristics and residual maturities of an ADI’s assets and off-balance sheet activities. ADIs must maintain an NSFR of at least 100%.

Net tangible assets equal share capital and reserves attributable to shareholders of the Company less unamortised intangible assets (including goodwill and software).

Regulatory deposits are mandatory reserve deposits lodged with local central banks in accordance with statutory requirements.

Restructured items comprise facilities in which the original contractual terms have been modified for reasons related to the financial difficulties of the customer. Restructuring may consist of reduction of interest, principal or other payments legally due, or an extension in maturity materially beyond those typically offered to new facilities with similar risk.

Return on average assets is the profit attributable to shareholders of the Company, divided by average total assets.

Return on average ordinary shareholders’ equity is the profit attributable to shareholders of the Company, divided by average ordinary shareholders’ equity.

Risk weighted assets (RWA) are risk weighted according to each asset’s inherent potential for default and what the likely losses would be in the case of default. In the case of non asset backed risks (i.e. market and operational risk), RWA is determined by multiplying the capital requirements for those risks by 12.5.

Settlement balances owed to/by ANZ represent financial assets and/or liabilities which are in the course of being settled. These may include trade dated assets and liabilities, vostro accounts and securities settlement accounts.
