Introduction

Purpose of this document

This document has been prepared in accordance with the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) Prudential Standard (APS) 330: Public Disclosure.

APS 330 Public Disclosure Prudential Standard (APS 330) requires locally-incorporated authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs) to meet minimum requirements for the public disclosure of key information on their capital and risk exposures and, where applicable, leverage ratio, liquidity coverage ratio, net stable funding ratio and indicators for the identification of potential global systemically important banks, so as to contribute to the transparency of financial markets and to enhance market discipline.

This document is prepared for ANZ BH Pty Ltd (ANZ Bank HoldCo) in accordance with ANZ Board policy and the APS 330 reporting standard requirements. It presents information on Capital Adequacy and Risk Weighted Assets (RWA) calculations for credit risk, securitisation, traded market risk, interest rate risk in the banking book and operational risk.

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZBGL) is an authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI) and a wholly owned subsidiary of ANZ Bank Holdco. The ultimate parent entity is ANZ Group Holdings Limited (ANZGHL). ANZGHL and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the ANZGHL Group.

The APS 330 disclosure has been prepared on the Level 2 basis being ANZ Bank HoldCo as the head of ANZ’s Level 2 Banking Group.

Any reference to ANZ / the Group refers to ANZ’s Level 2 Banking Group.

Suncorp Bank Acquisition

On 31 July 2024, the Group acquired 100% of the shares in SBGH Limited, the immediate holding company of Suncorp Bank. The reported figures in this disclosure include Suncorp Bank for the period since ownership as applicable.

Suncorp Bank is the trading name of Norfina Limited ABN 66 010 831 722 (formerly Suncorp-Metway Limited). Norfina Limited is an ADI and a wholly owned subsidiary of Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZBGL).

Suncorp Bank is a standardised ADI with Credit RWA calculated based on APS 112 Capital Adequacy: Standardised Approach to Credit Risk. Suncorp Bank is exposed to a similar range of inter-related business risks as the pre-existing ANZ portfolio, although with a predominant Australia domestic focus and has its own Risk Management Framework, Risk Management Strategy, Risk Appetite Statement and supporting suite of policies and procedures to manage these risks.

Verification of disclosures

These Pillar 3 disclosures have been verified in accordance with Board-approved policy, including ensuring consistency with information contained in returns provided to APRA. In addition, ANZ’s external auditor performs an agreed-upon procedures engagement with respect to the annual and semi-annual disclosures.

Comparison to ANZBGL’s Financial Reporting

These disclosures have been produced in accordance with regulatory capital adequacy concepts and rules, rather than with accounting policies adopted in ANZBGL’s financial reports. As such, there are different areas of focus and measures in some common areas of these disclosures. These differences are most pronounced in the credit risk disclosures, for instance:

• The principal method for measuring the amount at risk is Exposure at Default (EAD), which is the estimated exposure owed on a credit obligation (including on-balance sheet and commitments and contingents) at the time of default.

• Loss Given Default (LGD) is an estimate of the loss expected in the event of default. LGD is essentially calculated as the amount at risk (EAD) less expected net recoveries from realisation of collateral as well as any post-default repayments of principal and interest.

• Most credit risk disclosures split ANZ’s portfolio into regulatory asset classes, which span different areas of ANZ’s internal divisional and business unit organisational structure.

Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are rounded to AUD millions.

Pillar 3 disclosure requirements

In accordance with APS 330, an ADI must make the prudential disclosures as set out in the Standard issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS Standard) titled “Disclosure requirements”, subject to the modifications specified in Attachment A of APS 330. The BCBS Standard, including disclosure templates and tables that an ADI must complete and disclose, is available on the Bank of International Settlements website.

An ADI may make minor modifications to the content of its disclosures under the BCBS Standard where there are inconsistencies between the BCBS Standard and the applicable requirements in any Prudential Standards[1] . These modifications are noted in the respective disclosure tables throughout this document.

Common Equity Tier 1

Level 2 CET1 ratio of 12.1%, an increase of 12bps since September 2025. Key drivers were:

  • Cash profit (Level 2) increased the CET1 ratio by +41 bps.

  • Reinvestment of NOHC surplus capital to ANZBGL Group increased the CET1 ratio by +22bps.

  • Payment of the 2025 final dividend (net of Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) and Bonus Option Plan (BOP)) decreased the CET1 ratio by -33 bps.

  • Underlying RWA (excluding IRRBB) decreased the CET1 ratio by -15 bps, due to CRWA increasing mainly due to lending growth in Institutional and New Zealand divisions, and an increase in non-CRWA.

6

ANZ Basel III Pillar 3 disclosure December 2025

Leverage ratio

The APRA Leverage ratio was unchanged at 4.4% as the increase in Tier-1 capital offset the increase in total exposures. The exposure increase was mainly due to loan growth and an increase in securities financing transactions.

For key movements in RWA see table OV1: Overview of RWA .

Liquidity

The Group’s average LCR for the 3 months to 31 December 2025 has increased 0.6% from 132.1% as at 30 September 2025 to 132.7% with total liquid assets exceeding net cash outflows by an average of $75.5 billion.

Through the period the LCR has remained within the range 128% to 139%. The liquid asset portfolio was made up of on average 33% ($100.2 billion) cash and central bank reserves and 61% ($182.7 billion) HQLA1 securities, with the remaining mainly consisting of HQLA2 securities.

The Group's NSFR has increased 1.1% over the quarter from 114.6% as at 30 September 2025 to 115.7% as at 31 December 2025. This increase was primarily driven by deposit growth over the quarter.

The main sources of Available Stable Funding (ASF) at 31 December 2025 were deposits from Retail and SME customers, at 50%, with other wholesale funding at 28% and capital at 14% of the total ASF.

The majority of ANZ's Required Stable Funding (RSF) at 31 December 2025 was driven by mortgages at 50% and other lending to non-financial institution customers at 28% of the total RSF.

Key metrics - Suncorp Bank

Suncorp Bank is a standardised ADI with Credit RWA calculated based on APS 112 Standardised Approach to Credit Risk.

As of March 2025, Suncorp Bank does not produce a separate Pillar 3 report. The table below sets out the key information on regulatory metrics and ratios covering capital and RWAs for Suncorp Bank.

________

1 Includes a $3.1 billion RWA overlay relating to the Australian Residential Mortgages PD model.

2 Includes a $3.8 billion RWA overlay relating to an Income Producing Real Estate (IPRE) risk weight floor.

  • 3 Includes $12.5 billion ($1 billion capital) operational risk RWA overlay, applied to both Level 1 and Level 2.

The minimum capital requirement is based on an 8% capitalisation rate, however ANZ’s current CET1 ratio is 12.1% as at 31 December 2025.

Credit risk weighted assets

Credit RWA (CRWA) for 31 December 2025 totalled $369.1 billion (which includes Credit Risk, Counterparty Credit Risk, CVA and Securitisation), a $0.5 billion decrease over the quarter. Key drivers of this movement include:

  • Portfolio risk was lower (-$3.0 billion) primarily reflecting the benefit from the introduction of the Australian Government’s limited guarantee over ANZ’s Pacific exposures in October 2025 combined with improved delinquency in the Australia Retail Home Loans portfolio.

  • Foreign exchange impact reduction (-$2.2 billion).

  • Data, models and methodology (-$3.2 billion) due to ongoing enhancements across processes, data quality and methodological treatments primarily in the Australia Retail Home Loans portfolio.

  • Volume increase (+$7.6 billion) driven predominantly by the Institutional business (+$5.1 billion) across Financial Institution and Corporate asset classes. Additional growth in the New Zealand division (+$1.0 billion), primarily within the mortgage portfolio, and in the Business & Private Bank division (+$0.5 billion), mainly within the Corporate asset class.

  • Other movements (+$0.3 billion) mainly a rise in CVA RWA.

Market risk, Operational risk and IRRBB RWA

Traded Market Risk RWA increased by $0.3 billion over the quarter, primarily driven by higher Stressed VaR .

IRRBB RWA increased by $2.1 billion over the quarter, driven by a combination of a reduction in the embedded gain component and changes under the new IRRBB APS 117 standard.

The annual refresh of the Operational risk RWA has resulted in an increase of $0.7 billion (from $53.8 billion to $54.5 billion), as per APS 115 prudential requirements.

8

ANZ Basel III Pillar 3 disclosure December 2025

Floor adjustment RWA

The RWA floor adjustment is the additional RWA required after comparing the total actual RWA to the Output Floor of 72.5% of RWA calculated under the full standardised approach. For 31 December 2025, the RWA floor adjustment was $7.8 billion, an increase of $4.3 billion over the quarter. The increase in the RWA floor adjustment included:

  • A net increase of $6.7 billion from credit and counterparty risks, driven by growth in high quality exposures within the Institutional portfolio which increased the Output Floor by more than actual RWA ($5.0 billion) combined with reductions in advanced RWA due to data and methodology changes which did not affect the Output Floor, particularly for Australia Mortgage portfolio ($1.8 billion).

  • A floor gap reduction of $2.1 billion arising from an increase in IRRBB RWA driven by a combination of a reduction in the embedded gain component and changes under the new IRRBB APS 117 standard. IRRBB RWA has no impact on the Output Floor.

ANZ Basel III Pillar 3 disclosure December 2025

In accordance with current prudential regulations, APRA (and Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) in the New Zealand context) has approved ANZ’s use of the internal ratings-based approach for calculating the required capital for the majority of credit risk and counterparty credit risk exposures, with the standardised approach used for only a relatively small proportion of credit exposures. Noting the Suncorp Bank portfolio continues to calculate required capital under the standardised approach.

Methodological differences primarily arise due to the measurement of exposure at default (EAD) and the risk weights applied. In both cases, the treatment of credit risk mitigation, such as collateral, can have a significant effect. In line with the BCBS objectives, the internal model approach aims to balance the maintaining of prudent levels of capital while encouraging, where appropriate, the use of advanced risk management techniques.

Risk weights

Under the internal ratings-based approach, internal estimates of the probability of default (PD) and the loss given default (LGD), and for wholesale exposures the maturity, are used as inputs to the risk-weight formula for calculating RWA. Additionally, a 1.1 scaling factor is applied to internal ratings-based exposures. Under the standardised approach, risk weights are less granular and are driven by ratings provided by external credit assessment institutions (ECAIs) or the amount of collateral with which an exposure is secured which is used in the loan to value ratio (LVR).

The material divergences between the Standardised and Internal Ratings-Based approaches are in the Corporate and Financial Institutions asset classes. Much of this comes about due to the limited availability of external credit ratings across the portfolios, including for high-quality Institutional customers. Under the Standardised rules for unrated exposures, the risk-weight outcome is relatively conservative with only minor difference in treatment between customer credit profiles, resulting in a material divergence to the Internal Ratings-Based outcome for the same portfolios.

The Retail Residential Mortgage sub-asset class also exhibits conservatism in the standardised approach driven by the prescribed risk weights primarily using LVR.

EAD measurement

Prescribed credit conversion factors (CCF’s) applied to off-balance sheet amounts are mostly consistent across internal ratings-based and standardised approaches. Some differences are observed in non-revolving retail exposures (requiring 100% CCF in internal ratings-based) and revolving retail exposures (allowing an internal estimate under internal ratings-based).

_______ 1 The attribution of Credit RWA movements requires assumptions and judgement; different assumptions could lead to different attributions. This table presents the contribution of changes in Credit RWA amounts under the IRB approach only and hence may not directly reconcile to Group level Credit RWA attributions.

2 The September 2025 reduction relates to a new securitisation of residential mortgages eligible for capital relief under APS 120.

‑ CRWA reduced during the period with balance sheet growth, offset by asset quality related movements and model and methodology updates.

‑ Asset size growth predominantly occurred within Institutional division with increased exposures to well rated corporates and financial institutions.

‑ Asset quality related movements reflect the introduction of the Australian Government’s limited guarantee on ANZ’s Pacific exposures from October 2025, which resulted in revised risk treatment for the affected exposures (-$1.9 billion) along with improvements to the delinquency profile for the Australia Mortgage portfolio (-$0.8 billion)

In addition, model and methodology enhancements contributed a reduction to CRWA of $3.1 billion, primarily related to residential mortgage portfolio which contributed -$2.3 billion ($1.9 billion data and methodology improvements and $0.4 billion of model related changes).

DIS85: Liquidity

Liquidity risk overview, management and control responsibilities

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is either:

  • unable to meet its payment obligations (including repaying depositors or maturing wholesale debt) when they fall due; or

  • does not have the appropriate amount, tenor and composition of funding and liquidity to fund increases in its assets.

Management of liquidity and funding risks are overseen by Group Asset and Liability Committee. The Group’s liquidity and funding risks are governed by a set of principles approved by the BRC and include:

  • maintaining the ability to meet all payment obligations in the immediate term;

  • ensuring that the Group has the ability to meet ‘survival horizons’ under a range of ANZ specific, and general market, liquidity stress scenarios, at a country and Group-wide level, to meet cash flow obligations over the short to medium term;

  • maintaining strength in the Group’s balance sheet structure to ensure long term resilience in the liquidity and funding risk profile;

  • ensuring the liquidity management framework is compatible with local regulatory requirements;

  • preparing daily liquidity reports and scenario analysis to quantify the Group’s positions;

  • targeting a diversified funding base to avoid undue concentrations by investor type, maturity, market source and currency;

  • holding a portfolio of high quality liquid assets to protect against adverse funding conditions and to support day-to-day operations; and

  • establishing detailed contingency plans to cover different liquidity crisis events.

The Group operates under a non-operating holding company structure whereby:

  • ANZBGL operates its own liquidity and funding program, governance frameworks and reporting regime reflecting its Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) operations;

  • ANZGHL (parent entity) has no material liquidity risk given the structure and nature of the balance sheet; and

  • ANZ Non-Bank Group is not expected to have separate funding arrangements and will rely on ANZGHL for funding.

Key areas of measurement for liquidity risk

Scenario modelling of funding sources

The Group’s liquidity risk appetite is defined by a range of regulatory and internal liquidity metrics mandated by the ANZBGL 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.

Key components of this framework include the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), which is a severe short term liquidity stress scenario, Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) a longer-term structural liquidity measure (both of which are mandated by banking regulators including APRA) and internallydeveloped liquidity scenarios for stress testing purposes.

Liquid assets

The Group holds a portfolio of high quality (unencumbered) liquid assets to protect its liquidity position in a severely stressed environment and to meet regulatory requirements. High quality liquid assets comprise three categories consistent with Basel III LCR requirements:

  • Highest-quality liquid assets (HQLA1) - cash and 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) - eligible securities that the RBNZ will accept in its domestic market operations and asset qualifying as collateral for the CLF.

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 ANZBGL Board.

16

ANZ Basel III Pillar 3 disclosure December 2025

Liquidity crisis contingency planning

The Group maintains APRA-endorsed liquidity crisis contingency plans for analysing and responding to a liquidity threatening event at a country and Group-wide level. Key liquidity contingency crisis planning requirements and guidelines include:

Ongoing business management Early signs/ mild stress Severe stress
establish crisis/severity levels monitoring and review activate contingency funding plans
liquidity limits management actions not requiring business
management actions for altering asset and
early warning indicators rationalisation liability behaviour
Assigned responsibility for internal and external communications and the appropriate timing to communicate.

Since the precise nature of any stress event cannot be known in advance, we design the plans to be flexible to the nature and severity of the stress event with multiple variables able to be accommodated in any plan.

Group funding

The Group monitors the composition and stability of its funding so that it remains within the Group’s funding risk appetite. This approach ensures that an appropriate proportion of the Group’s assets are funded by stable funding sources, including customer deposits; longer-dated wholesale funding (with a remaining term exceeding one year); and equity.

Funding plans prepared

ANZ Basel III Pillar 3 disclosure December 2025

LIQ1: Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR)

The Group’s average[3] LCR for the 3 months to 31 December 2025 has increased 0.6% from 132.1% as at 30 September 2025 to 132.7% with total liquid assets exceeding net cash outflows by an average of $75.5 billion.

Through the period the LCR has remained within the range 128% to 139%. The liquid asset portfolio was made up of on average 33% ($100.2 billion) cash and central bank reserves and 61% ($182.7 billion) HQLA1 securities, with the remaining mainly consisting of HQLA2 securities.

As per APRA requirements, liquid assets beyond the regulatory minimum are not included in the consolidated ANZBGL Group position where they are deemed non-transferable between geographies, in particular this applies to liquid assets held in New Zealand.

The main contributors to net cash 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. Modelled outflows are also included for market valuation changes of derivatives based on the past 24 months largest 30-day movements in collateral balances.

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

The Group monitors and manages its liquidity risk on a daily basis including LCR by geography and currency. The Group’s liquidity risk framework ensures ongoing monitoring of foreign currency LCR (including derivative flows) and sets limits at the Group level to ensure mismatches are managed effectively.

The Group’s liquidity and funding management includes monitoring of liquidity across the Group, specifically for:

  • Individual countries, including any local regulatory requirements

  • Consolidated ANZ Group Level 1 and 2 LCR

  • AUD only LCR for Australia as well as Level 2

Other contingent funding obligations include outflows for revocable credit and liquidity facilities, trade finance related obligations, buybacks of domestic Australian debt securities and other contractual outflows such as interest payments.

3 There were 66 daily LCR data points used in calculating the average for the current quarter and 66 in the previous quarter.

Glossary

ADI Authorised Deposit-taking Institution. Collectively Assessed Provision for Collectively assessed provisions for credit impairment represent the Expected Credit Loss Credit Impairment (ECL) calculated in accordance with AASB 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9). These incorporate forward looking information and do not require an actual loss event to have occurred for an impairment provision to be recognised. Counterparty credit risk Counterparty credit risk (CCR) is the risk of loss due to a counterparty failing to meet its obligations before the final settlement of the transaction's cash flows. Credit exposure The aggregate of all claims, commitments and contingent liabilities arising from on- and offbalance 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 a counterparty failing to fulfil its obligations or a decrease in credit quality of a counterparty resulting in a deterioration of value. Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA) Over the life of a derivative instrument, ANZ uses a CVA 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.

Credit Valuation adjustment (CVA) A capital charge to reflect potential mark-to-market losses due to counterparty migration risk capital charge for bilateral over-the-counter derivative contracts. 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. Encumbered and unencumbered Encumbered assets are assets that the bank is restricted or prevented from liquidating, selling, assets transferring or assigning due to legal, regulatory, contractual or other limitations. Unencumbered assets are assets which do not meet the definition of encumbered. Exposure at Default (EAD) Exposure At Default is defined as the expected facility exposure at the date of default. IPRE Income-producing real estate Individually Assessed Provisions for Individually assessed provisions for credit impairment are calculated in accordance with AASB Credit Impairment 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9). They are 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.

Market risk The risk stems from ANZ’s trading and balance sheet activities and is the risk to the Group’s earnings arising from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, volatility, correlations or 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 both physical and derivative trading positions. Trading positions arise from transactions where ANZ acts as principal with customers, financial exchanges or inter-bank counterparties.

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 processes, people, systems, or
from external events. This includes the non-financial risk themes of model, third party, physical
security, transaction processing and execution, people, legal, statutory reporting & tax and
change execution.
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 Counterparties QCCP is a central counterparty which is an entity that interposes itself between counterparties
(QCCP) to derivative contracts. Trades with QCCP attract a more favourable risk weight calculation.
Recoveries Payments received and taken to profit for the current period for the amounts written off in prior
financial periods.
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.
