Notes to the Financial Statements

1. Significant Accounting Policies

(i) Reporting entity and statement of compliance

These interim financial statements are for the Banking Group for the nine months ended 30 June 2014. They have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as appropriate for profit oriented entities, the requirements of NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Order, and should be read in conjunction with the Banking Group’s financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2013.

(ii) Basis of measurement

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with historical cost concepts except that the following assets and liabilities are stated at their fair value:

  • derivative financial instruments, including in the case of fair value hedging, the fair value of any applicable underlying exposure;

  • financial instruments held for trading;

  • financial assets treated as available-for-sale; and

  • financial instruments designated at fair value through profit and loss.

(iii) Changes in accounting policies

The Banking Group has applied the following new accounting standards and amendments in the preparation of these financial statements:

Adoption of these standards has not resulted in any material change to the Banking Group’s reported result or financial position.

NZ IAS 19 has been applied retrospectively, in accordance with transitional provisions, with the net impact of initial application recognised in retained earnings as at 30 September 2012 and shown in the statement of changes in equity. The balances of payables and other liabilities and the associated deferred tax asset have been restated for subsequent periods.

Amendments to NZ IAS 34 require certain fair value disclosures which have been included in Note 12, however comparative information is not required in the first year of application.

(iv) Presentation currency and rounding

The amounts contained in the financial statements are presented in millions of New Zealand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

(v) Comparatives

In addition to restatements resulting from the initial application of NZ IAS 19, certain amounts in the comparative information have been reclassified to ensure consistency with the current year’s presentation. Further information on changes to comparative information is included in note 16.

(vi) Principles of consolidation

The financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries.

  • NZ IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements;

  • NZ IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement;

  • NZ IAS 19 Employee Benefits (amended 2011);

  • NZ IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (amended 2011); and

  • NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting (consequential amendments).

Notes to the Financial Statements

3. Segmental Analysis

The Banking Group is organised into four major business segments for segment reporting purposes - Retail, Commercial, Wealth and Institutional. Centralised back office and corporate functions support these segments. These segments are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, being the Bank’s Chief Executive Officer.

Segmental reporting has been updated to reflect minor changes to the Banking Group’s structure. Comparative data has been adjusted to be consistent with the current period’s segment definitions.

Retail

Retail provides products and services to personal customers via the branch network, mortgage specialists, the contact centre and a variety of self service channels (internet banking, phone banking, ATMs, website and mobile phone banking). Core products include current and savings accounts, unsecured lending (credit cards, personal loans and overdrafts) and home loans secured by mortgages over property. Retail distributes insurance and investment products on behalf of the Wealth segment.

Commercial

Commercial provides services to Business Banking, Commercial & Agri, and UDC customers. Business Banking

services are offered to small enterprises (typically with annual revenues of less than $5 million). Commercial & Agri customers consist of primarily privately owned medium to large enterprises. The Banking Group's relationship with these businesses ranges from simple banking requirements with revenue from deposit and transactional facilities, and cash flow lending, to more complex funding arrangements with revenue sourced from a wider range of products. UDC is principally involved in the financing and leasing of plant, vehicles and equipment, mainly for small and medium sized businesses, as well as investment products.

Wealth

Wealth comprises the Private Wealth, Funds Management and Insurance businesses, which provide private banking, investment, superannuation and insurance products and services.

Institutional

Institutional provides financial services through a number of specialised units to large multi-banked corporations, often global, which require sophisticated product and risk management solutions. Those financial services include loan structuring, foreign exchange, wholesale money market services and transaction banking.

Other

Other includes treasury and back office support functions, none of which constitutes a separately reportable segment.

ANZNZ Covered Bond Trust (the Covered Bond Trust)

Substantially all of the assets of the Covered Bond Trust are made up of certain housing loans and related securities originated by the Bank which are security for the guarantee by ANZNZ Covered Bond Trust Limited as trustee of the Covered Bond Trust of issuances of covered bonds by the Bank, or its wholly owned subsidiary ANZ New Zealand (Int’l) Limited, from time to time. The assets of the Covered Bond Trust are not available to creditors of the Bank, although the Bank (or its liquidator or statutory manager) may have a claim against the residual assets of the Covered Bond Trust (if any) after all prior ranking creditors of the Covered Bond Trust have been satisfied.

The Banking Group continues to recognise the assets of the Covered Bond Trust on its balance sheet as, although they are pledged as security for covered bonds, the Bank retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Ordinary share capital issued

The Bank issued $970 million of ordinary shares to the Immediate Parent Company on 20 June 2014. The shares are included in common equity tier 1 capital and were issued at the same time as payment of a dividend of the same amount by the Bank to the Immediate Parent Company. Total common equity tier 1 capital and capital ratios were unchanged after these transactions.

All ordinary shares share equally in dividends and any proceeds available to ordinary shareholders on winding up. On a show of hands every member who is present at a meeting in person or by proxy or by representative is entitled to one vote, and upon a poll every member shall have one vote for each share held.

Pillar II capital for other material risks

The Banking Group has an Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) which complies with the requirements of the Bank's Conditions of Registration.

Under the Banking Group's ICAAP it identifies and measures all "other material risks", which are those material risks that are not explicitly captured in the calculation of the Banking Group's tier 1 and total capital ratios. The other material risks identified by the Banking Group include business risk, pension risk, insurance risk, funds management risk, lapse risk, premises and equipment risk and capitalised origination fees risk.

The Banking Group's internal capital allocation for these other material risks is $336 million (30/06/2013 $379 million; 30/09/2013 $343 million).

The Banking Group regularly reviews the methodologies used to calculate the economic capital allocated to other material risks. Updated capital methodologies (particularly relating to pension risk and business retention risk) were applied in November 2013 and prior periods were restated accordingly.

Residential mortgages by loan-to-valuation ratio

As required by the RBNZ, LVRs are calculated as the current exposure secured by a residential mortgage divided by the Banking Group's valuation of the security property at origination of the exposure. Off balance sheet exposures include undrawn and partially drawn residential mortgage loans as well as commitments to lend. Commitments to lend are formal offers for housing lending which have been accepted by the customer.

11. Liquidity Portfolio

The Banking Group holds a diversified portfolio of cash and high quality liquid securities to support liquidity risk management. The size of the Banking Group’s liquidity portfolio is based on the amount required to meet its liquidity policy and includes both items classified as cash and those classified as operating assets in the Condensed Cash Flow Statement.

12. Fair Value Measurements

Financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value

Below is a comparison of the carrying amounts as reported on the balance sheet and fair value of financial asset and liability categories other than those categories where the carrying amount is at fair value or considered a reasonable approximation of fair value:

**Unaudited ** 30/06/2014
**$ millions ** Carrying amount Fair value
Assets
Net loans and advances1 94,193 94,203
Liabilities
Deposits and other borrowings2 85,329 85,320
Bonds and notes1 15,573 15,742
Subordinated debt 1,132 1,113
  • 1 Fair value hedging is applied to certain financial instruments within these categories. The resulting fair value adjustments mean that the carrying value differs from the amortised cost.

2 Includes commercial paper designated at fair value through profit or loss of $6,951million.

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the balance sheet

The Banking Group uses a valuation method within the following hierarchy to determine the carrying amount of assets and liabilities held at fair value, all of which are recurring fair value measurements. There are no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Level 1 - Quoted market price

Where an active market exists fair value is based on quoted market prices for identical financial instruments. The quoted market price is not adjusted for any potential impact that may be attributed to a large holding of the financial instrument.

Level 2 - Valuation technique using observable inputs

In the event that there is no quoted market price for the instruments, fair values are based on present value estimates or other market accepted valuation techniques which include data, including interest and exchange rates, from observable markets wherever possible.

Level 3 - Valuation technique with significant non observable inputs

The Banking Group holds units in an unlisted fund which does not trade in an active market. The fair value of these units is based on the estimated cashflows from the realisation of the underlying assets.

The Banking Group recognises transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 as of the beginning of the reporting period during which the transfer has occurred. There have been no transfers between levels during the period.

13. Concentrations of Credit Risk to Individual Counterparties

The Banking Group measures its concentration of credit risk in respect of bank counterparties on the basis of approved exposures, and in respect of non bank counterparties on the basis of limits.

For the three months ended 30 June 2014 there were no individual counterparties, excluding connected parties, governments and banks with long term credit ratings of A- or above, where the Banking Group’s period end or peak end-of-day credit exposure equalled or exceeded 10% of the Banking Group’s equity as at the end of the period.

14. Insurance business

The Banking Group conducts insurance business through its subsidiaries OnePath Life (NZ) Limited and OnePath Insurance Services (NZ) Limited. The aggregate amount of insurance business in this group comprises assets totalling $827 million (30/06/2013: $774 million; 30/09/2013 $779 million), which is 0.7% (30/06/2013: 0.6%; 30/09/2013 0.6%) of the total consolidated assets of the Banking Group.

The Banking Group guarantees the performance of customers by issuing standby letters of credit and guarantees to third parties, including its Ultimate Parent Bank. To reflect the risk associated with these transactions, they are subjected to the same credit origination, portfolio management and collateral requirements as for customers that apply for loans. The contract amount represents the maximum potential amount that could be lost if the counterparty fails to meet its financial obligations. As the facilities may expire without being drawn upon, the notional amounts do not necessarily reflect future cash requirements.

Other contingent liabilities

In December 2013, the Commerce Commission announced that it intended to file proceedings against the Bank (and two other banks) under the Fair Trading Act 1986 in relation to the sale of interest rate swaps to rural customers. On 2 April 2014, the Commission stated that it anticipates making a further announcement after it has progressed discussions with each bank. The Financial Markets Authority has also commenced an investigation into this matter. The potential outcome of the investigations or any proceedings which may be issued cannot be determined with any certainty at this stage.

In June 2013, litigation funder Litigation Lending Services (NZ) Limited filed a representative action against the Bank regarding certain fees charged to New Zealand customers. The potential outcome of this litigation cannot be determined with any certainty at this stage.

The Banking Group has other contingent liabilities in respect of actual and possible claims and court proceedings. An assessment of the Banking Group’s likely loss in respect of these matters has been made on a case-by-case basis and provision made where deemed necessary.

16. Changes to Comparatives

Certain amounts in the comparative information have been reclassified to conform with current period financial statement presentations.

During the period, the classification of the balance sheet has been changed to reflect the nature of the financial assets and liabilities reported. Prior to the reclassification, the balance sheet was classified according to counterparty. This has resulted in the following changes to previously reported balance sheet classifications. Minor changes in the overall total assets and total liabilities have also occurred due to the adoption of IAS19 Employee Benefits and to gross up net insurance assets for the present value of reinsurance premiums payable.

Associated amounts in the income statement, statement of comprehensive income and cash flow statement have been restated accordingly, and the impact of the changes to these statements is not material.
