Credit Risk Weighted Assets (CRWA)

Total CRWA increased $0.6 billion (0.2%) from March 2019 to $346.1 billion at Jun 2019. This was driven by an increase in Corporates under the Advanced IRB approach with CRWA increasing $1.0 billion predominantly from portfolio growth in the Institutional Business.

Market Risk, Operational Risk and IRRBB Risk Weighted Assets (RWA)

Traded Market Risk RWA decreased $0.5 billion (8.6%) over the quarter due to reduction in Stress VaR.

1 Specialised Lending exposures subject to supervisory slotting approach are those where the main servicing and repayment is from the asset being financed, and includes specified commercial property development/investment lending and project finance.

4 Impaired derivatives are net of credit valuation adjustment (CVA) of $6 million, being a market value based assessment of the credit risk of the relevant counterparties (March 2019: $20 million; December 2018: $20 million).

5 Impaired loans / facilities include restructured items of $230 million for customer 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 (March 2019: $264 million; December 2018: $265 million).

6 For regulatory reporting not well secured portfolio managed retail exposures have been reclassified from past due loans ≥ 90 days to impaired loans / facilities.

7 ANZ has commenced implementing revised processes for the identification of impaired assets, and a more market responsive collateral valuation methodology for the home loan portfolio in Australia. From July, this will increase the number of home loans being classified as Impaired rather than past due loans ≥ 90 days.

8 Due to definitional differences, there is a variation in the split between ANZ’s Individually and Collectively Assessed Provisions for Credit Impairment for accounting purposes and the Specific Provision and General Reserve for Credit Losses (GRCL) for regulatory purposes. This does not impact total provisions, and essentially relates to the classification of collectively assessed provisions on defaulted accounts. The disclosures in this document are based on Individually and Collectively Assessed Provisions for Credit Impairment, for ease of comparison with other published results.

Table 18 Leverage ratio

The Leverage Ratio requirements are part of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) Basel III capital framework. It is a simple, non-risk based supplement or backstop to the current risk based capital requirements and is intended to restrict the build-up of excessive leverage in the banking system.

Consistent with the BCBS definition, APRA’s Leverage Ratio compares Tier 1 Capital to the Exposure Measure (expressed as a percentage) as defined by APS 110.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR)

ANZ’s average LCR for the 3 months to 30 Jun 2019 was 143.3% with total liquid assets exceeding net outflows by an average of $55.8bn.

The main contributors to net outflows were modelled outflows associated with the bank’s corporate and retail deposit portfolios, offset by inflows from maturing loans. While cash outflows associated with derivatives are material, these are effectively offset by derivative cash inflows.

The composition of the liquid asset portfolio has remained relatively stable through the half, with HQLA securities and cash making up on average 75% of total liquid assets.

ANZ has a well diversified deposit and funding base avoiding undue concentrations by investor type, maturity, market source and currency.

ANZ monitors and manages its liquidity risk on a daily basis including LCR by geography and currency, ensuring ongoing compliance across the network.

Glossary

ADI Authorised Deposit-taking Institution.
Basel III Credit Valuation CVA charge is an additional capital requirement under Basel III for bilateral derivative
Adjustment (CVA) capital exposures. Derivatives not cleared through a central exchange/counterparty are
charge subject to this additional capital charge and also receive normal CRWA treatment
under Basel II principles.
Collectively Assessed Collectively assessed provisions for credit impairment represent the Expected Credit
Provision for Credit Loss (ECL) calculated in accordance with AASB 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9).
Impairment These incorporate forward looking information and do not require an actual loss event
to have occurred for an impairment provision to be recognised.
Credit exposure The aggregate of all claims, commitments and contingent liabilities arising from on-
and off-balance sheet transactions (in the banking book and trading book) with the
counterparty or group of related counterparties.
Credit risk 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 Valuation Adjustment Over the life of a derivative instrument, ANZ uses a CVA model to adjust fair value to
(CVA) 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.
Days past due The number of days a credit obligation is overdue, commencing on the date that the
arrears or excess occurs and accruing for each completed calendar day thereafter.
Exposure at Default (EAD) Exposure At Default is defined as the expected facility exposure at the date of default.
Impaired assets (IA) Facilities are classified as impaired when there is doubt as to whether the contractual
amounts due, including interest and other payments, will be met in a timely manner.
Impaired assets include impaired facilities, and impaired derivatives. Impaired
derivatives have a credit valuation adjustment (CVA), which is a market assessment
of the credit risk of the relevant counterparties.
Impaired loans (IL) Impaired loans comprise of drawn facilities where the customer’s status is defined as
impaired.
Individual provision charge Individual provision charge is the amount of expected credit losses on financial
(IPC) instruments assessed for impairment on an individual basis (as opposed to on a
collective basis). It takes into account expected cash flows over the lives of those
financial instruments.
Individually Assessed Individually assessed provisions for credit impairment are calculated in accordance
Provisions for Credit with AASB 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9). They are assessed on a case-by-case
Impairment 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.
Market risk The risk to ANZ’s earnings arising from changes in interest rates, currency exchange
rates and credit spreads, or from fluctuations in bond, commodity or equity prices.
ANZ has grouped market risk into two broad categories to facilitate the measurement,
reporting and control of market risk:
Traded market risk - the risk of loss from changes in the value of financial
instruments due to movements in price factors for physical and derivative trading
positions. Trading positions arise from transactions where ANZ acts as principal with
clients or with the market.
Non-traded market risk (or balance sheet risk) - comprises interest rate risk in the
banking book and the risk to the AUD denominated value of ANZ’s capital and
earnings due to foreign exchange rate movements.

Operational risk The risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal controls or from external
events, including legal risk but excluding reputation risk.
Past due facilities Facilities where a contractual payment has not been met or the customer is outside of
contractual arrangements are deemed past due. Past due facilities include those
operating in excess of approved arrangements or where scheduled repayments are
outstanding but do not include impaired assets.
Qualifying Central QCCP is a central counterparty which is an entity that interposes itself between
Counterparties (QCCP) counterparties to derivative contracts. Trades with QCCP attract a more favorable risk
weight calculation.
Recoveries Payments received and taken to profit for the current period for the amounts written
off in prior financial periods.
Restructured items 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.
Risk Weighted Assets (RWA) Assets (both on and off-balance sheet) 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.
Securitisation risk The risk of credit related losses greater than expected due to a securitisation failing to
operate as anticipated, or of the values and risks accepted or transferred, not
emerging as expected.
Write-Offs Facilities are written off against the related provision for impairment when they are
assessed as partially or fully uncollectable, and after proceeds from the realisation of
any collateral have been received. Where individual provisions recognised in previous
periods have subsequently decreased or are no longer required, such impairment
losses are reversed in the current period income statement.
