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 six months ended 31 March 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

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.

Credit quality of financial assets that are past due but not impaired
A large portion of retail credit exposures, such as residential mortgages, are generally well secured. That is, the fair value of associated security should be sufficient to ensure that the Banking Group will recover the entire amount owing over the life of the facility and there is reasonable assurance that collection efforts will result in payment of the amounts due in a timely manner.

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.

Terms of ordinary share capital
All ordinary shares share equally in dividends and any proceeds available to ordinary shareholders on the winding up of the Bank. 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.
Terms of additional tier 1 capital (preference shares)
All preference shares were issued on 25 September 2013 by the Bank to the Immediate Parent and do not carry any voting rights. The preference shares are wholly classified as equity instruments as there is no contractual obligation for the Bank to either deliver cash or another financial instrument or to exchange financial instruments on a potentially unfavourable basis. The key terms of the preference shares are as follows:
Dividends
Dividends are payable at the discretion of the Directors of the Bank and are non-cumulative. The Bank must not resolve to pay any dividend or make any other distribution on its ordinary shares until the next preference dividend payment date if the Directors elect to not pay a dividend on the preference shares.
ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited
14
Notes to the Financial Statements
Should the Bank elect to pay a dividend, the dividend is payable at 72% of BKBM + 3.25% p.a., with dividend payments due on 1 March and 1 September each year.
Redemption features
The preference shares are redeemable, subject to prior written approval of the RBNZ, by the Bank providing notice in writing to holders of the preference shares:
-
on any date on or after a change to laws or regulations that adversely affects the regulatory capital or tax treatment of the preference shares; or
-
on any dividend payment date on or after 1 March 2019; or
-
on any date after 1 March 2019 if the Bank has ceased to be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Ultimate Parent Bank.
The preference shares may be redeemed for nil consideration should a non-viability trigger event occur.
Rights of holders in event of liquidation
In the event of liquidation, holders of preference shares are entitled to available subscribed capital per share, pari passu with all holders of existing preference shares but in priority to all holders of ordinary shares. They have no entitlement to participate in further distribution of profits or assets.
Terms of tier 2 capital instruments
Tier 2 capital instruments are subordinated in right of payment in the event of liquidation or wind up to the claims of depositors and all creditors of the Bank.
These instruments qualify as tier 2 capital under the RBNZ’s transitional rules. Fixing the base at the nominal amount of such instruments outstanding at 31 December 2012, their recognition is capped at 80% of that base from 1 January 2014; 60% from 1 January 2015; 40% from 1 January 2016; 20% from 1 January 2017; and from 1 January 2018 onwards these instruments will not be included in regulatory capital.
NZD 835,000,000 bond
This bond was issued by the Bank on 18 April 2008. The Bank may elect to redeem the bond on 18 April 2018 (the Call Date) or any interest payment date subsequent to 18 April 2018. Interest is payable half yearly in arrears on 18 April and 18 October each year, up to and including the Call Date and then quarterly thereafter. Should the bond not be called at the Call Date, the Coupon Rate from the Call Date onwards will be set on a quarterly basis to the three month FRA rate plus 3.00%.
As at 31 March 2014, this bond carried a BBB+ rating by Standard and Poor's and an A3 rating by Moody’s.
The coupon interest on the bond is 5.28% for the five year period to 18 April 2018.
This bond is listed on the New Zealand Exchange (NZX). The Market Surveillance Panel of the NZX granted the Bank a waiver from the requirements of Listing Rules 10.4 (relating to the provision of preliminary announcements of half yearly and annual results to the NZX) and 10.5 (relating to preparing and providing a copy of half yearly and annual reports to the NZX).
AUD 265,740,000 loan
This loan was drawn down by the Bank on 27 September 1996 and has no fixed maturity. Interest is payable half yearly in arrears based on BBSW + 0.95% p.a., with interest payments due 15 March and 15 September.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Implementation of the advanced internal ratings based approach to credit risk measurement
The Banking Group adheres to the standards of risk grading and risk quantification as set out for Internal Ratings Based (IRB) banks in the RBNZ document Capital Adequacy Framework (Internal Models Based Approach) (BS2B).
Under this IRB Framework banks use their own measures for calculating the level of credit risk associated with customers and exposures, by way of the primary components of:
Probability of Default (PD): An estimate of the level of risk of borrower default graded by way of rating models used both at loan origination and for ongoing monitoring;
Exposure at Default (EAD): The expected facility exposure at default. Total credit risk-weighted exposures include a scalar of 1.06 in accordance with the Bank’s Conditions of Registration; and
Loss Given Default (LGD): An estimate of the potential economic loss on a credit exposure, incurred as a consequence of obligor default and expressed as a percentage of the facility’s EAD. For Retail Mortgage exposures the Bank is required to apply the downturn LGDs according to loan to value (LVR) bands as set out in BS2B. For farm lending exposures the Banking Group is required to adopt RBNZ prescribed downturn LVR based LGDs, along with a minimum maturity of 2.5 years and the removal of the firm-size adjustment.
For exposures classified under Specialised Lending, the Banking Group uses slotting tables supplied by the RBNZ rather than internal estimates.
The exceptions to IRB treatment are three minor portfolios where, due to systems constraints, determining these IRB risk estimates is not currently feasible or appropriate. Risk weights for these exposures are calculated under a separate treatment as set out in the RBNZ document Capital Adequacy Framework (Standardised Approach) (BS2A).

Credit risk mitigation
The Banking Group assesses the integrity and ability of counterparties to meet their contractual financial obligations for repayment. The Banking Group generally takes collateral security in the form of real property or a security interest in personal property, except for major government, bank and corporate counterparties of strong financial standing. Longer term consumer finance, in the form of housing loans, is generally secured against real estate while short term revolving consumer credit is generally unsecured.
As at 31 March 2014, under the IRB approach, the Banking Group had $1,719 million of Corporate exposures covered by guarantees where the presence of the guarantees was judged to reduce the underlying credit risk of the exposures. Information on the total value of exposures covered by financial guarantees and eligible financial collateral is not disclosed, as the effect of these guarantees and collateral on the underlying credit risk exposures is not considered to be material.
Operational risk
The Banking Group uses the Advanced Measurement Approach for determining its regulatory capital requirement for operational risk calculated in accordance with BS2B. As at 31 March 2014 the Banking Group had an implied risk weighted exposure of $5,378 million for operational risk and an operational risk capital requirement of $430 million.
Market risk
The aggregate market risk exposures below have been calculated in accordance with BS2B. The peak end-of-day market risk exposures are for the half-year ended 31 March 2014.

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 $356 million (31/03/2013 $374 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 pension risk and business retention risk) were applied in November 2013 and prior periods restated accordingly.

For calculation of minimum capital requirements under Pillar 1 (Capital Requirements) of the Basel Accord, APRA has accredited the Overseas Banking Group to use the Advanced Internal Ratings Based (AIRB) methodology for calculation of credit risk weighted assets and the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) for the operational risk weighted asset equivalent.
Under prudential regulations, the Overseas Banking Group is required to maintain a Prudential Capital Ratio (PCR) as determined by APRA. The Overseas Banking Group exceeded the PCR set by APRA as at 31 March 2014 and for the comparative prior periods.
The Overseas Banking Group is required to publicly disclose Pillar 3 financial information as at 31 March 2014. The Overseas Banking Group’s Pillar 3 disclosure document for the quarter ended 31 March 2014, in accordance with APS 330: Public Disclosure of Prudential Information, discloses capital adequacy ratios and other prudential information. This document can be accessed at the website anz.com.
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. For this financial period, the Banking Group has altered the banding of exposures in the LVR table below to align presentation with the new RBNZ LVR commitment reporting. Updated corresponding amounts as at 30 September 2013 have been provided for comparative purposes.

Concentrations of credit risk
Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of customers are engaged in similar business activities or activities within the same geographic region, or when they have similar risk characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions.
Analysis of financial assets by industry sector is based on Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) codes.

Contractual maturity analysis of financial assets and liabilities
The following tables present the Banking Group's financial assets and liabilities within relevant contractual maturity groupings, based on the earliest date on which the Banking Group may be required to realise an asset or settle a liability. The amounts disclosed in the tables represent undiscounted future principal and interest cash flows and may differ to the amounts reported on the balance sheet.
The contractual maturity analysis for off-balance sheet commitments and contingent liabilities has been prepared using the earliest date at which the Banking Group can be called upon to pay. The liquidity risk of credit related commitments and contingent liabilities may be less than the contract amount, and does not necessarily represent future cash requirements as many of these facilities are expected to be only partially used or to expire unused.
The Banking Group does not manage its liquidity risk on this basis.

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 ** | 31/03/2014 | |
|---|---|---|
| **$ millions ** | Carrying amount | Fair value |
| Assets | ||
| Net loans and advances1 | 93,391 | 93,383 |
| Liabilities | ||
| Deposits and other borrowings2 | 81,457 | 81,468 |
| Bonds and notes1 | 16,405 | 16,583 |
| Subordinated debt | 1,129 | 1,098 |
- 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 $5,401 million.
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 to bank counterparties on the basis of approved exposures, and in respect to non bank counterparties on the basis of limits.
For the six months ended 31 March 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 $787 million (31/03/2013 $793 million; 30/09/2013 $779 million), which is 0.6% (31/03/2013 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 in mid-2014 after it has progressed discussions with each bank. The potential outcome of 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
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.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report
To the Shareholder of ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited
We have reviewed pages 3 to 25 of the interim financial statements of ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited (the Bank) and its subsidiary companies (the Banking Group) prepared and disclosed in accordance with the Registered Bank Disclosure Statements (New Zealand Incorporated Registered Banks) Order 2014 (the Order) and the supplementary information prescribed in Schedules 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 16 and 18 of the Order. The interim financial statements, and supplementary information, provide information about the past financial performance and cash flows of the Banking Group and its financial position as at 31 March 2014.
Directors' responsibility for the disclosure statement
The Directors of ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Disclosure Statement, which includes interim financial statements prepared in accordance with Clause 25 of the Order which give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Banking Group as at 31 March 2014 and its financial performance and cash flows for the six months ended on that date. The Directors are also responsible for such internal controls as the Directors determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the Disclosure Statement that is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error.
They are also responsible for the preparation of supplementary information in the Disclosure Statement which fairly states the matters to which it relates in accordance with Schedules 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 16 and 18 of the Order.
Reviewer’s responsibility
We are responsible for reviewing the interim financial statements and the supplementary information, disclosed in accordance with Clause 25, Schedules 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 16 and 18 of the Order and presented to us by the Directors.
We are responsible for reviewing the interim financial statements (excluding the supplementary information) in order to report to you whether, in our opinion on the basis of the procedures described below, anything has come to our attention that would cause us to believe that the interim financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34 (NZ IAS 34): Interim Financial Reporting and do not present a true and fair view of the financial position of the Banking Group as at 31 March 2014 and its financial performance and cash flows for the six months ended on that date.
We are responsible for reviewing the supplementary information (excluding the supplementary information relating to capital adequacy) in order to report to you whether, in our opinion on the basis of the procedures described below, anything has come to our attention that would cause us to believe that the supplementary information does not fairly state the matters to which it relates in accordance with Schedules 5, 7, 13, 16 and 18 of the Order.
We are responsible for reviewing the supplementary information relating to capital adequacy in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described below, anything has come to our attention that would cause us to believe that the information disclosed in accordance with Schedule 11 is not in all material respects prepared in accordance with the Bank’s Conditions of Registration and with the Bank’s internal models for credit risk and operational risk as accredited by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand and disclosed in accordance with Schedule 11 of the Order.
We have performed our review in accordance with the review engagement standard RS-1: Statement of Review Engagement Standards issued by the External Reporting Board. A review is limited primarily to enquiries of Banking Group personnel and analytical review procedures applied to the financial data, and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
KPMG has also provided other audit related services to the Banking Group. In addition, certain partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the Banking Group on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the Banking Group. These matters have not impaired our independence as auditors of the Banking Group. We have no other relationship with, or interest in, the Banking Group.
Review opinion
We have examined the interim financial statements including the supplementary information and based on our review, which is not an audit, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that:
-
a. the interim financial statements (excluding the supplementary information) have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NZ IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting and do not present a true and fair view of the financial position of the Banking Group as at 31 March 2014 and its financial performance and cash flows for the six months ended on that date;
-
b. the supplementary information prescribed by Schedules 5, 7, 13, 16 and 18 of the Order does not fairly state the matters to which it relates in accordance with those Schedules; and
-
c. the supplementary information relating to capital adequacy as required by Schedule 11 of the Order, is not in all material respects prepared in accordance with the Bank’s Conditions of Registration and with the Bank’s internal models for credit risk and operational risk as accredited by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, and disclosed in accordance with Schedule 11 of the Order.
Our review was completed on 13 May 2014 and our review opinion is expressed as at that date.
