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 2017 final dividend. For the 2017 final dividend, ANZ intends to provide shares under the DRP through an on-market purchase (as approved by APRA) 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 during the ten trading days commencing on 17 November 2017, 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 2017 final dividend must be received by ANZ's Share Registrar by 5.00pm (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) on 15 November 2017. 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 17 November 2017.

1 Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are to the year ended 30 September 2016. 2

Cash profit excludes non-core items included in statutory profit and is provided to assist readers in understanding the result of the ongoing 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 ongoing 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 addition to statutory profit of $532 million made up of several items. Refer pages 75 to 79 for further details.

3 There is no conduit foreign income attributed to the dividends. 4

It is proposed that the final dividend will be fully franked for Australian tax purposes (30% tax rate) and carry New Zealand imputation credits of NZD 10 cents per ordinary share.

SUMMARY

Large/notable items

Large/notable items included in cash profit are described below on a pre-tax basis.

Sales and investment related adjustments

  • Asian minority investments

Valuation adjustments

  • During the March 2016 half year, the Group recognised a $260 million impairment to its equity accounted investment in AMMB Holdings Berhad (AmBank) bringing the carrying value in line with its value-in-use calculation.

  • On 30 March 2016, Bank of Tianjin (BoT) completed a capital raising and listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange through an Initial Public Offering (IPO). As the Group did not participate in the capital raising, its ownership interest decreased from 14% to 12%. As a consequence, the Group ceased equity accounting for its investment in BoT and recognised a net gain of $29 million in relation to the remeasurement of the investment to fair value and recycling the associated equity accounted reserves.

The net impact of these valuation adjustments was $231 million in 2016.

Equity accounted earnings

  • On 30 March 2016, the Group ceased equity accounting for its investment in BoT as outlined above.

  • On 3 January 2017, the Group announced that it had agreed to sell its 20% stake in Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank (SRCB). As a consequence, the Group ceased equity accounting for its investment in SRCB from that date and commenced accounting for it as an asset held for sale.

A summary of the large/notable valuation and equity accounted earnings associated with Asian minority investments is shown in the table below. Equity accounted earnings for BoT and SRCB include equity accounted earnings from 1 October 2015 that will no longer form part of future cash profit results.

Sale of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses

The Group announced that it had agreed to sell Retail and Wealth businesses in Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan and Indonesia to Singapore’s DBS Bank on 31 October 2016. As a result of the sale agreement, the Group recognised a $324 million charge to impair software, goodwill and fixed assets as well as providing for costs associated with the sale in the March 2017 half (refer Note 10). In the September 2017 half, a $14 million gain was recognised in relation to the sale.

At balance date, Asia Retail and Wealth businesses in China, Singapore and Hong Kong have transitioned to DBS. The remaining businesses in Taiwan and Indonesia will transition in early 2018. The transfer of Vietnam Retail to Shinhan Bank Vietnam will also be completed in early 2018.

  • Esanda Dealer Finance divestment

On 1 November 2015, the Group sold the Esanda Dealer Finance portfolio with the majority of the business transferred by 31 December 2015. Large/notable items include the gain on sale of the Esanda Dealer divestment of $66 million and earnings and expenses recognised from 1 October 2015 that will no longer form part of future cash profit results. The total pre-tax impact for the September 2016 full year is $69 million.

Derivative methodology change and valuation adjustments

Derivative CVA methodology change

In determining the fair value of a derivative position, the Group recognises a CVA (credit valuation adjustment) to reflect the probability that the counterparty may default and the Group may not receive the full market value of outstanding transactions. It represents an estimate of the credit adjustment a market participant would include when deriving a purchase price to acquire the exposure. During the September 2016 half, the Group revised its methodology for determining the derivative credit valuation adjustment to make greater use of market information and enhanced modelling, and to align with leading market practice. The impact was a charge of $237 million in 2016.

  • Derivative valuation adjustments

In determining the fair value of derivative positions, adjustments are made to the risk free value to include factors such as the impact of credit and funding. The impact of valuation adjustments has increased significantly following the derivative CVA methodology change implemented in 2016 and changes previously made to align funding valuation adjustments (FVA) with emerging market practice. In the September 2017 half, a $67 million gain (Mar 17 half: $162 million gain) was recognised to reflect the impact of funding and credit valuation adjustments, net of associated hedges. A $229 million gain was recognised in the September 2017 full year. A $102 million loss was recognised in the September 2016 full year excluding the impact of the derivative CVA methodology change described above.

SUMMARY

Other large/notable items

  • Gain on sale of 100 Queen Street, Melbourne

The Group sold the 100 Queen Street office tower and former head office in Melbourne, Australia in the March 2017 half. The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of $114 million.

  • Software capitalisation changes

During the March 2016 half, the Group amended the application of the Group’s software capitalisation policy by increasing the threshold for capitalisation of software development costs to $20 million, reflecting the increasingly shorter useful life of smaller items of software, and directly expensing more project related costs. For software assets at 1 October 2015 with an original cost below the revised threshold, the carrying values were expensed through an accelerated amortisation charge of $556 million in the September 2016 full year (recognised in TSO and Group Centre).

Restructuring

The Group accelerated the process of reshaping its workforce in 2016 to build a simpler, more agile bank. A restructuring expense of $278 million was recognised in the September 2016 full year and this is included as a large/notable item. Restructuring expenses of $62 million in the September 2017 full year (Sept 17 half: $26 million, Mar 17 half $36 million) are not considered to be large/notable.

GROUP RESULTS

Non-IFRS Information

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 represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the ongoing 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 in the process of being audited within the context of the Group’s Annual Report. Cash profit is not subject to review or audit by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that recurring adjustments have been determined on a consistent basis across each period presented, and the additional adjustments for the impact of the reclassification of Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank to held for sale in the March 2017 half, September 2017 half and September 2017 full year is appropriate.

The Group Results section is reported on a cash profit basis.

Group Cash Profit – September 2017 Full Year v September 2016 Full Year

==> picture [510 x 148] intentionally omitted <==

  • September 2017 v September 2016

Cash profit increased 18% partly reflecting the impact of a number of large/notable items taken in 2016 and rigorous cost management in 2017.

  • Net interest income decreased $223 million (-1%) largely due to a 8 basis points decrease in the net interest margin, partially offset by 2% growth in average interest earning assets. The growth in average interest earning assets reflects ANZ’s strategic focus on home loans, in particular owner occupier, partially offset by reductions from Institutional portfolio rebalancing and the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale. The lower net interest margin reflects the combined impact of deposit competition, growth in the liquidity portfolio and lower earnings on capital. This was partially offset by differentiated repricing in home loans across investor and owner occupier, principal and interest and interest only loans which on a net basis benefited margins. The major bank levy was introduced in 1 July 2017 which also reduced net interest income by $86 million.

  • Other operating income increased $118 million (+2%) benefiting from a net year on year change in derivative valuation adjustments of $331 million (Sept 17: $229 million gain; Sept 16: $102 million loss), an improvement in Markets income of $102 million, and the $114 million gain on sale of 100 Queen Street, Melbourne. Prior year comparatives include the adverse impact of Asian minority valuation adjustments of $231 million and the $237 million derivative CVA methodology change. Partly offsetting this, a number of sales related transactions had unfavourable impacts including a $310 million net charge related to the Asia Retail and Wealth sale, and $365 million loss of income from SRCB, BoT and Esanda Dealer Finance. There was a $186 million reduction in funds management and insurance income, and a $75 million decrease in net fee and commission income.

  • Operating expenses decreased $991 million (-9%) primarily due to the $556 million charge for software capitalisation policy changes and the $278 million charge for restructuring taken in 2016. Personnel expenses reduced by $363 million reflecting a 5% reduction in average FTE. Partly offsetting this are increases in underlying technology expenses of $55 million and increases in other expenses of $106 million as the result of non-lending losses and higher technology related consulting expenses.

  • Credit impairment charges decreased $757 million (-39%). Individual credit impairment charges decreased by $598 million (-31%) primarily the result of a benign credit environment. Collective impairment charges decreased by $159 million due to an improvement in the Group’s overall risk profile and portfolio rebalancing in Institutional, partially offset by economic overlay adjustments.

  • September 2017 v March 2017

Cash profit increased 3% compared with the March 2017 half.

  • Net interest income increased $40 million (+1%) as the result of a 1% increase in average interest earning assets, partially offset by a 2 basis point decrease in net interest margin. Average interest earning assets growth reflects ANZ’s strategic focus on home loans, partially offset by a reduction in Institutional due to portfolio rebalancing, and partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale. The net margin decrease was driven by growth in the liquidity portfolio, lower earnings on capital, partially offset by improved asset and deposit margins. The major bank levy was introduced in July 2017 which reduced net interest income by $86 million.

  • Other operating income decreased $157 million (-5%) primarily the result of lower derivatives valuation adjustments of $95 million, a reduction in Markets underlying income of $241 million and cessation of equity accounting for SRCB of $58 million. In the March 2017 half, the Group recognised a $114 million gain on sale of 100 Queen Street, Melbourne, offset against by a net $310 million charge related to the Asia Retail and Wealth sale.

  • Operating expenses decreased $14 million (0%) driven by a $118 million reduction in personnel expenses resulting from a 2% reduction in average FTE. Other expenses increased $113 million due to higher technology related consulting expenses.

  • Credit impairment charges decreased $241 million (-33%). Individual credit impairment charges decreased by $233 million (-30%) due to a $243 million decrease in Institutional driven by lower provisions and higher write-backs. Collective impairment charges decreased $8 million driven by an improvement in the Group’s overall risk profile, portfolio rebalancing in Institutional, and the net movement in the economic overlay adjustment.

GROUP RESULTS

Net interest income

In the March 2017 half, the Group changed its calculation of net interest margin to net home loan deposit offset balances against total interest earning assets. The revised calculation is in line with other major banks. Originally reported net interest margin (Sep 16 full year: 2.00%) and total average interest earning assets (Sep 16 full year: $754,160 million) have been restated accordingly.

22

GROUP RESULTS

  • September 2017 v September 2016

Net interest margin (-8 bps)

  • Asset mix and funding mix (+1 bps): favourable mix impact from a lower proportion of wholesale funding and run-off of lower margin lending products in Institutional, partially offset by the adverse mix impact from growth in Australia home loans.

  • Funding costs (-2 bps): impact of higher hybrid and subordinated debt and the introduction of the major bank levy.

  • Deposit competition (-3 bps): lower margin from increased competition in Australia and New Zealand, partially offset by improved margins in Asia.

  • Asset competition and risk mix (+4 bps): increase driven by Australian and New Zealand home loans repricing.

  • Markets and treasury (-8 bps): adverse impact to earnings on capital as the result of lower interest rates, growth in the liquidity portfolio and lower earnings from markets activities.

Average interest earning assets (+$17.2 billion or +2%)

  • Average gross loans and advances (+$6.1 billion or +1%): excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, the increase was +$7.4 billion (+1%) driven by growth in Australia and New Zealand home loans, partially offset by a decline in Institutional due to portfolio rebalancing, and the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale.

  • Average trading and available-for-sale assets (+$5.7 billion or +6%): excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, the increase was +$6.5 billion (+7%) driven by growth in the liquidity portfolio.

  • Average cash and other liquids (+$5.2 billion or +7%): excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, the increase was +$6.8 billion (+9%) driven by liquidity management requirements, market volatility and volume of derivative transactions.

Average deposits and other borrowings (+$13.7 billion or +2%)

  • Average deposits and other borrowings (+$13.7 billion or +2%): excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, the increase was +$18.0 billion (+3%) driven by growth in customer deposits across Australia, New Zealand and Institutional divisions, partially offset by a decline of deposits and other borrowings in Treasury, as well as the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale.

Group net interest margin – September 2017 Half Year v March 2017 Half Year

Other operating income – September 2017 Full Year v September 2016 Full Year

==> picture [510 x 133] intentionally omitted <==

September 2017 v September 2016

Other operating income Increased by $118 million (+2%). Key drivers:

Net fee and commission income (-$75 million or -3%)

  • $56 million decrease in Institutional primarily due to portfolio rebalancing.

  • $40 million increase in Australia division primarily due to growth in Small Business and Deposits.

Net funds management and insurance income (-$186 million or -12%)

  • $163 million decrease in Wealth Australia primarily due to adverse retail life claims, reduced fee income as expected from ongoing rationalisation of legacy investment platforms to SmartChoice, lower income on invested capital, partially offset by favourable Lenders Mortgage Insurance experience.

  • $37 million decrease in the Asia Retail and Pacific division as the result of lower performance and partial sale completion.

25

GROUP RESULTS

Cash Markets income (+$558 million or +31%)

  • Excluding the $237 million charge relating to the derivative CVA methodology change in 2016, Cash Markets income increased $321 million:

  • $244 million increase in Balance Sheet Trading driven by tighter credit spreads which generated mark to market gains in the March 2017 half, as well as increased income from higher average liquidity portfolio holdings throughout 2017.

  • $227 million increase in Franchise Trading primarily attributable to a $229 million gain associated with derivative credit and funding valuation adjustments, net of associated hedges which benefitted from decreasing credit spreads and increasing yield curves. Favourable trading conditions seen in 2016 continued in the March 2017 half post the US election, however became more subdued in the September 2017 half.

  • $150 million decrease in Franchise Sales due to the impact of business transformational initiatives (client and product rationalisation to align to Institutional strategy, reduce risk exposures and improve returns) and market conditions limiting client activity particularly for longer tenor hedging as a result of low FX volatility and the low interest rate environment.

Share of associates’ profit (-$244 million or -45%)

  • $287 million decrease due to cessation of equity accounting for BoT from March 2016 and SRCB from January 2017.

  • $44 million net increase in profits from associates of which $38 million relates to P.T. Bank Pan Indonesia.

Other (-$47 million or -20%)

  • $310 million decrease as a result of the reclassification to held for sale and partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale.

  • $66 million decrease due to the Esanda Dealer Finance gain on divestment taken in the March 2016 half.

  • $231 million increase due to the Asian minority valuations adjustments in the March 2016 half.

  • $114 million increase due to the gain on sale of 100 Queen Street, Melbourne.

  • September 2017 v March 2017

Other operating income decreased by $157 million (-5%). Key drivers:

Net fee and commission income (+$8 million or +1%)

  • $19 million increase in the New Zealand division as the result of renewed card scheme incentives.

  • $19 million decrease in Institutional primarily due to portfolio rebalancing.

Net funds management and insurance income (-$4 million or -1%)

Cash Markets income (-$372 million or -27%)

  • $261 million decrease in Franchise Trading attributable to a $95 million reduction in derivative credit and funding valuation adjustments, net of associated hedges, following significant gains in the March 2017 half and more challenging trading conditions compared to the previous eighteen months.

  • $78 million decrease in Balance Sheet Trading with lower mark to market gains associated with credit spreads movements.

  • $33 million decrease in Franchise Sales as the impact of business transformational initiatives moderated in the September 2017 half, however benign market conditions continued as the low interest rate environment persisted.

Share of associates’ profit (-$46 million or -27%)

  • $58 million loss of income due to cessation of equity accounting for SRCB from January 2017.

  • $12 million net increase in profits from associates of which $9 million relates to Metrobank Card Corporation.

Other (+$221 million)

  • $324 million increase as the result of the reclassification of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses to held for sale in the March 2017 half, partially offset by a $14 million gain recognised in relation to the sale in the September 2017 half.

  • $26 million increase as the result of a dividend received from Bank of Tianjin.

  • $114 million decrease as a result of the gain on sale of 100 Queen Street, Melbourne recognised in the March 2017 half.

September 2017 v September 2016

The individual credit impairment charge decreased $598 million (-31%) driven by a $402 million (-16%) decrease in new and existing provisions predominantly in Institutional largely arising from portfolio rebalancing, combined with a $196 million (+37%) increase in recoveries and write-backs in Australia and Institutional divisions from better than expected outcomes in impaired asset workouts.

September 2017 v March 2017

The individual credit impairment charge decreased $233 million (-30%) driven primarily by a $243 million decrease in Institutional due to lower new individual provisions from portfolio rebalancing and higher write-backs and recoveries. This is partially offset by an increase of $23 million (+5%) in the Australia division driven by Retail and Small Business portfolios.

September 2017 v September 2016

The collective credit impairment charge decreased $159 million driven by a reduction in Institutional due to portfolio rebalancing, and further improvement in the Institutional and New Zealand divisional risk profile. This was partially offset by an economic overlay adjustment of $75 million.

September 2017 v March 2017

The collective credit impairment release increased $8 million, driven by continued portfolio contraction in Institutional due to portfolio rebalancing, further risk profile improvement across all divisions, and a net movement in the economic overlay adjustment.

Group Expected Loss

Management believe that disclosure of modelled expected loss data for individual 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 is used internally for return on equity analysis and economic profit reporting.

Asia Retail and Wealth

  • ANZ announced the sale of six Asia Retail and Wealth businesses in 2017, of which three are now completed with the remainder to occur in first half 2018.

  • The increase in Asia Retail and Wealth expected loss reflects the partial completion of the sale of those businesses with the countries to be completed having proportionally higher unsecured lending (primarily credit cards).

1. Loans and advances as at 30 September 2017 and 31 March 2017 include assets held for sale.

2. 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 2017 v September 2016

Gross impaired assets decreased $789 million (-25%) driven by Institutional (-$781 million) and New Zealand (-$39 million) divisions due to higher repayments and upgrades on a small number of large exposures, and Asia Retail and Pacific division (-$109 million) due to the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale. This was partially offset by an increase in the Australia division (+$140 million) driven by Corporate Banking, Small Business Banking and home loan portfolios. The Group’s individual provision coverage ratio on impaired assets was 47.7% at 30 September 2017 (Sep 16: 41.2%).

September 2017 v March 2017

Gross impaired assets decreased $556 million (-19%) driven by Institutional (-$437 million) and New Zealand (-$102 million) divisions with higher repayments and upgrades on a small number of large exposures, combined with Asia Retail and Pacific division (-$100 million) due to the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale. This was partially offset by an increase in Australia (+$83 million) driven by Corporate Banking, Small Business Banking and home loan portfolios. The Group’s individual provision coverage ratio on impaired assets was 47.7% at 30 September 2017 (Mar 17: 43.2%).

September 2017 v September 2016

The effective tax rate has increased from 28.0% to 29.4%. The 140 basis point increase is primarily due to a reduction in equity accounted earnings (+106 bps) and the non-recurrence of a tax provision release in the prior year (+87 bps). This is partially offset by the non-tax deductible impairment of AmBank recognised in the March 2016 half (-95 bps).

September 2017 v March 2017

The effective tax rate has decreased from 29.5% to 29.2%. The 30 basis point decrease is primarily due to increased offshore earnings in the September 2017 half which attract a lower average tax rate. Offshore earnings in the March 2017 half are impacted by the reclassification of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses to held for sale.

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 2017, the following hedges were in place to partially hedge future earnings against adverse movements in exchange rates:

  • NZD 3.3 billion at a forward rate of approximately NZD 1.08 / AUD.

There were no USD hedges in place or impacting income for the September 2017 full year.

During the September 2017 full year:

  • NZD 1.8 billion of economic hedges matured and a realised loss of $46 million (pre-tax) was recorded in cash profit.

  • An unrealised gain of $137 million (pre-tax) on the outstanding NZD economic hedges was 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 revenues.

1. Final dividend for 2017 is proposed.

2. Dividend payout ratio is calculated using proposed 2017 final dividend of $2,350 million, which is based on the forecast number of ordinary shares on issue at the dividend record date. Dividend payout ratios for the March 2017 half and September 2016 full year were calculated using actual dividend paid of $2,349 million and $4,676 million respectively.

The Directors propose that a final dividend of 80 cents be paid on each eligible fully paid ANZ ordinary share on 18 December 2017. The proposed 2017 final dividend will be fully franked for Australian tax purposes, and New Zealand imputation credits of NZD 10 cents per ordinary share will also be attached.

Economic profit is a risk adjusted profit measure used to evaluate business unit performance and is considered in determining the variable component of remuneration packages. This is used for internal management purposes and is not subject to audit.

Economic profit is calculated via a series of adjustments to cash profit. The economic credit cost adjustment replaces the actual credit loss charge with internal expected loss based on the average loss 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 the ANZ Group level, this is calculated using average ordinary shareholders’ equity (excluding non-controlling interests) multiplied by the cost of capital rate (currently 9% and applied across comparative periods). At a business unit level, capital is allocated based on economic capital, whereby higher risk businesses attract higher levels of capital. This method is designed to help drive appropriate risk management and ensure business returns align with the relevant credit, operational, market and other risks.

Economic profit increased by $694 million (+38%) against the September 2016 full year due to a 18% increase in cash profit and 23% increase in imputation credits, partially offset by higher economic credit costs.

Economic profit decreased by $79 million (-6%) against the March 2017 half due to higher economic credit costs, partially offset by a 3% increase in cash profit.

1. Balance as at 30 September 2017 and 31 March 2017 exclude assets and liabilities reclassified to held for sale.

  • September 2017 v September 2016

  • Derivative financial assets and liabilities decreased $25.0 billion (-29%) and $26.4 billion (-30%) respectively as interest rate movements resulted in lower derivative fair values.

  • Net loans and advances decreased $1.6 billion. Adjusting for a $6.0 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation and a reclassification of $6.0 billion to assets held for sale, the $10.5 billion increase was primarily driven by home loan growth across Australia (+$18.2 billion) and New Zealand (+$3.8 billion) divisions, partially offset by a $7.4 billion reduction in Asia Retail & Pacific due to the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale and a $4.4 billion decrease in Institutional as a result of portfolio rebalancing.

  • Deposits and other borrowings increased $7.4 billion (+1%). Adjusting for a $8.7 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation and a reclassification of $4.6 billion to liabilities held for sale, the $20.7 billion increase was driven by growth in customer deposits across Institutional, Australia and New Zealand divisions (+$38.6 billion), partially offset by reduction in customer deposits in Asia Retail & Pacific due to the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale (-$12.9 billion) and reduction in certificate of deposits, deposit from banks and other borrowings (-$4.8 billion).

  • Debt issuances and subordinated debt decreased $5.1 billion (-5%). Adjusting for a $1.2 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation, the $3.9 billion decrease was primarily driven by a $4.1 billion reduction in subordinated debt.

  • September 2017 v March 2017

  • Cash / Settlement balances owed to ANZ / Collateral paid decreased by $6.8 billion (-8%). Adjusting for a $0.9 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation, the $5.9 billion decrease was primarily driven by decreased cash and settlement balances held by Markets and Treasury.

  • Trading and available-for-sale assets increased $4.2 billion (+4%). Adjusting for a $0.7 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation, the $4.9 billion increase was primarily driven by driven by increased liquidity portfolio holdings due to balance sheet growth in Markets.

  • Net loans and advances increased $10.3 billion (+2%). Adjusting for a $0.6 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation, the $10.9 billion increase was primarily driven by home loan growths across Australia (+$8.6 billion) and New Zealand (+$2.1 billion) divisions.

  • Deposits and other borrowings increased by $14.2 billion (+2%). Adjusting for a $3.0 billion decrease due to foreign currency translation, the $17.2 billion increase was primarily driven by increase in commercial paper issued (+$8.5 billion) and increase in customer deposits across Institutional, Australia and New Zealand divisions (+$14.4 billion), partially offset by decrease in certificate of deposits, deposit from banks and other borrowings (-$5.4 billion).

  • Assets and liabilities held for sale decreased $6.1 billion (-43%) and $12.5 billion (-73%) respectively due to the partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale.

Assets and liabilities held for sale as at 30 September 2017 and 31 March 2017 reflects the reclassification of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses, UDC Finance, Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank and Metrobank Card Corporation assets and liabilities to held for sale. Refer to Note 10 to the financial statements for further details.

Liquidity risk

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 ADI is set annually by APRA. From 1 January 2017, ANZ’s CLF is $43.8 billion (2016 calendar year end: $50.3 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.

  • September 2017 v September 2016

ANZ’s CET1 ratio increased 96 bps to 10.6% during the year. Key drivers of the movement in the CET1 ratio were:

  • Net organic capital generation was 229 bps or $9.3 billion. This was primarily driven by cash profit and a net reduction in underlying RWA growth (excluding foreign exchange impacts, regulatory changes and other one-offs) which collectively provided 223 bps to the CET1 ratio. Throughout the September 2017 full year, RWA reduction was primarily driven by a $16.4 billion decrease in Institutional Credit RWAs (CRWAs) from a reduction in lending, due to portfolio rebalancing.

  • Payment of the March 2017 Interim and September 2016 Final Dividends (net of shares provided under the DRP, with March 2017 DRP neutralisation) reduced the CET1 ratio by 108 bps.

  • The transition of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses in China, Singapore and Hong Kong to DBS increased CET1 ratio by 9 bps.

  • Other impacts are mainly driven by net impacts from RWA measurement changes (reduced CET1 ratio by 27 bps principally from changes to ANZ’s new capital model for Australian Residential Mortgages), and a further 7bps reduction from other impacts associated with movements in non-cash earnings and net foreign currency translation.

ANZ’s CET1 ratio increased 44 bps to 10.6% during the September 2017 half. Key drivers of the movement in the CET1 ratio were:

  • Net organic capital generation was 118 bps or $4.7 billion. This was primarily driven by cash profit and a net reduction in underlying RWA (excluding foreign exchange impacts, regulatory changes and other one-offs). The RWA reduction was mainly driven by a $7.6 billion decrease in Institutional CRWAs from lower lending due to portfolio rebalancing.

  • Payment of the March 2017 Interim Dividend (with DRP neutralisation) reduced the CET1 ratio by 58 bps.

  • The transition of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses in China, Singapore and Hong Kong to DBS increased CET1 ratio by 9 bps.

Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translation and other non-recurring CRWA changes, CRWAs decreased by $14.2 billion, primarily driven by a decline in Institutional lending. Other CRWA changes mainly reflect the impact of RWA modelling changes to the Australian Residential Mortgages portfolio, partially offset by the Asia Retail and Wealth business transition of China, Singapore and Hong Kong to DBS. Non-CRWA decreased by $2.3bn mainly driven by lower Operational Risk, from reduced operation size (following portfolio rebalancing in Institutional and the transition of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses) and simplification of portfolios across the Group.

ANZ’s total RWA decreased by $5.9 billion. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translation and other non-recurring CRWA changes, CRWAs decreased by $6.3 billion primarily driven by a decline in Institutional lending. Other CRWA changes mainly reflect the impact of RWA modelling changes to the Australian Residential Mortgages portfolio, partially offset by the transition of Asia Retail and Wealth business in China, Singapore and Hong Kong to DBS.

APRA to Internationally Comparable[1] Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) as at 30 September 2017

==> picture [505 x 171] 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.

GROUP RESULTS

Risk Weighted Assets (RWA)

  • 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.

  • Mortgages RWA – APRA imposes a floor of 20% on the downturn Loss Given Default (LGD) used in credit RWA calculations for residential mortgages. Additionally, from July 2016, APRA also requires a higher correlation factor above the Basel framework 15% .The Internationally Comparable Basel 3 framework only requires a downturn LGD floor of 10% and a correlation factor of 15%.

  • 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 – 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) – To adjust ANZ’s credit conversion factors (CCF) for undrawn corporate loan commitments to 75% (used in FIRB approach) to align with banks in other jurisdictions.

Leverage Ratio

At 30 September 2017, the Group’s APRA Leverage Ratio was 5.4% which is above the 3% minimum currently proposed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS). APRA has not finalised a minimum leverage ratio requirement for Australian ADIs. The following table summarises the Group’s Leverage Ratio calculation:

  • September 2017 v September 2016

ANZ’s Leverage Ratio increased 9 bps during the year mainly driven by:

  • Net organic capital generation (cash earnings) net of dividend payments increased the ratio by 30 bps.

  • Lower net Additional Tier 1 capital reduced the ratio by 10 bps mainly from redemption of remaining $1.1 billion of transitional CPS2 on issue in March 2017 half.

  • Net growth in exposures reduced the ratio by 10 bps mainly driven by on balance sheet growth in Australia division (primarily from growth in home loans) partially offset by the transition of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses to DBS. Other impacts lowered the ratio by 1 bp.

  • September 2017 v March 2017

ANZ’s Leverage Ratio increased 12 bps in the September half mainly driven by:

  • Net organic capital generation (cash earnings) net of dividend payments increased the ratio by 15 bps.

  • The above were offset by net growth in exposures which reduced the ratio by 3 bps primarily driven by on balance sheet growth in Australian division (primarily from growth in home loans) partially offset by the transition of Asia Retail and Wealth businesses to DBS.

Other regulatory developments

  • Financial System Inquiry (FSI)

The Australian Government completed a comprehensive inquiry into Australia’s financial system and the FSI final report was released on 7 December 2014. The contents of the report are wide-ranging and key recommendations that may have an impact on regulatory capital levels include:

  • Setting capital standards such that Australian Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions’ (ADIs) capital ratios are unquestionably strong;

  • Raising the average internal ratings-based (IRB) mortgage risk weight to narrow the difference between average mortgage risk weight for ADIs using IRB models and those using standardised risk weights;

  • Implementing a framework for minimum loss absorbing and recapitalisation capacity in line with emerging international practice;

  • Developing a common reporting template that improves the transparency and comparability of capital ratios of Australian ADIs; and

  • Introducing a leverage ratio that acts as a backstop to ADIs risk-based capital requirements, in line with the Basel framework.

APRA supported the FSI’s recommendations and in response introduced the following:

  • With effect from July 2016, APRA increased the capital requirements for Australian residential mortgage exposures for ADIs accredited to use the IRB approach to credit risk (including ANZ) to at least 25% risk-weighting. APRA also required refinements to residential mortgages risk models which ANZ implemented in June 2017. Collectively these changes have increased average credit risk weighting of ANZ’s residential mortgages to approximately 28% as at September 2017.

  • 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’. APRA indicated that “In the case of the four major Australian banks, APRA expects that the increased capital requirements will translate into the need for an increase in CET1 capital ratios, on average, of around 100 basis points above their December 2016 levels. In broad terms, that equates to a benchmark CET1 capital ratio, under the current capital adequacy framework, of at least 10.5 per cent.” APRA also stated that “ADIs should, where necessary, initiate strategies to increase their capital strength to be able to meet these capital benchmarks by 1 January 2020 at the latest.” In order to accommodate future changes to capital framework mainly from:

  • Basel III changes in respect of credit risk, operational risk and the capital floor and;

  • Additional changes to address mortgage concentration risk and to improve transparency, comparability and flexibility.

GROUP RESULTS

  • Discussion papers covering the above are expected to be released in late 2017, with consultation on draft prudential standards taking place throughout 2018. Final standards will then be issued in 2019 to take effect from early 2021. Importantly, APRA has indicated these changes to the capital framework will be accommodated within the 10.5% CET1 benchmark that Australian ADIs are expected to have met, a year ahead of the expected effective date of the new prudential standards.

  • Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR)

APRA released its final standards on NSFR in 2017 confirming that the minimum NSFR of 100% will become a regulatory requirement from 1 January 2018.

As part of managing future liquidity requirements, ANZ monitors the NSFR in its internal reporting and the Group is well placed to meet this requirement by the implementation date.

• 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 until 2019 at the earliest, to allow for the final capital requirements arising from FSI recommendations as well as from international initiatives that are in progress.

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.

  • RBNZ review of capital requirements

On May 1, 2017 the RBNZ published an issues paper announcing that it is undertaking a comprehensive review of the capital adequacy framework applying to New Zealand locally incorporated registered banks over 2017 and 2018. The aim of the review is to identify the most appropriate framework for setting capital requirements for New Zealand banks, taking into account how the current framework has operated and international developments in bank capital requirements. The capital review will focus on the three key components of the current framework:

  • The definition of eligible capital instruments;

  • The measurement of risk; and

  • The minimum capital ratios and buffers.

The RBNZ requested feedback about the topics covered by the issues paper for which responses were due on June 9, 2017. Detailed consultation documents on policy proposals and options for each of the three components will be released during 2017, with a view to concluding the review by the first quarter of 2018.

On July 14, 2017, the RBNZ released a consultation paper on what types of financial instruments should qualify as eligible regulatory capital. The consultation paper sets out proposals for reform to the definition of eligible capital instruments for which responses were due September 8, 2017.

The impact on Group and our subsidiary bank in New Zealand (ANZ Bank New Zealand) arising from the above consultations will not be known until the RBNZ finalises their review in 2018.

  • Current Proposals from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) on RWA

As part of the BCBS agenda to simplify RWA measurement and reduce their variability amongst banks, the BCBS has issued a number of consultation documents associated with:

  • Standardised approach to RWA for credit risk;

  • Revisions to Standardised Measurement Approach to Operational Risk;

  • Fundamental Review of the Trading Book;

  • Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book;

  • Framework on the imposition of capital floors based on standardised RWA approaches; and

  • Additional constraints on the use of internal models for credit RWA.

Apart from the review of the Trading Book standard which has been finalised, BCBS is currently deliberating on the other proposals. Once finalised, APRA is expected to incorporate these issues as part of changes to the regulatory capital framework that APRA intends to implement by 2021, as outlined in its July 2017 information paper ‘Strengthening banking system resilience – establishing unquestionably strong capital ratios’.

Divisional Performance

During the March 2017 half, the Group made changes to the Group’s operating model for technology, operations and shared services to accelerate delivery of its technology and digital roadmap, bring operations closer to its customers and continue operational efficiency gains. As a result of these organisational changes, divisional operations from Technology, Services & Operations (“TSO”) and Group Centre have been realigned to divisions. The residual TSO and Group Centre now contains Group Technology, Group Hubs, Enterprise Services and Group Property and the Group Centre. The Group operates on a divisional structure with six divisions: Australia, New Zealand, Institutional, Asia Retail & Pacific, Wealth Australia, and Technology, Services & Operations and Group Centre. For further information on the composition of divisions refer to the Definitions on page 117.

Other than the changes described above, there have been no other significant structural changes during the year. However, certain prior period comparatives have been restated to align with current period presentation. The divisions reported below are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, being the Chief Executive Officer.

The Divisional Results section is reported on a cash profit basis.

1. Risk weighted assets from 30 September 2016 includes APRA’s revised average mortgage risk weight targets.

2. In the March 2017 half, the Group changed its calculation of net interest margin to net Australian home loan deposit offset balances against total interest earning assets (Mar 17 half: $24,979 million; Sep 16 full year: $23,325 million).

Performance September 2017 v September 2016

  • Retail lending volumes grew in home loans, particularly in New South Wales. Corporate & Commercial banking volumes grew 1% with Corporate Banking increasing 7%. Customer deposits grew across all portfolios.

  • Net interest margin declined as the result of higher average funding costs, lower earnings on deposits due to the lower interest rate environment and the introduction of the major bank levy.

  • Operating expenses were broadly flat due to a reduction in FTE driven by productivity efforts focused on simplifying the business, partially offset by inflation and increased investment in the business, particularly in the second half.

  • Credit impairment charges decreased primarily due to lower single name charges in Corporate and Commercial Banking, partially offset by volume growth and higher delinquency rates for home loans in Western Australia.

1. In the March 2017 half, a change was made to the classification of certain fees payable. These items have been reclassified from other operating income to operating expenses to more accurately reflect the nature of these items. Comparatives have been restated (Sep16 full year: $17 million).

Performance September 2017 v September 2016

  • Lending volumes down due to portfolio rebalancing mainly in Loans & Specialised Finance and Transaction Banking. Customer deposits grew in Markets and Transaction Banking.

  • Net interest margin ex-Markets decreased due to asset pricing competition, the introduction of the major bank levy and the mix impact of lower lending volumes and higher deposit volumes, partially offset by margin improvements in Payments and Cash Management.

  • Other operating income increased significantly due to positive derivative valuation adjustments and higher Markets Balance Sheet income as a result of tightening credit spreads.

  • Operating expenses decreased due to a reduction in FTE as a result of ongoing simplification of the business, partially offset by higher nonlending losses, regulatory and compliance spend.

==> picture [256 x 154] intentionally omitted <==

  • Credit impairment charges decreased significantly due to a benign credit environment, higher write-backs and an overall reduction in lending assets driven by portfolio rebalancing.

1. In determining the fair value of derivative positions adjustments are made to the risk free value to include factors such as the impact of credit and funding and bid-offer spreads. In the March 2017 half, the impact of these adjustments and where relevant the hedging of the associated exposure were included as part of Franchise Trading Income to better align with how these are overseen and risk managed and comparatives were restated. These adjustments were previously allocated between Franchise Sales, Franchise Trading and Balance Sheet.

2. Franchise Sales represents direct client flow business on core products such as fixed income, foreign exchange, commodities and capital markets.

3. Franchise Trading primarily represents management of the Group’s strategic positions and those taken as part of direct client sales flow. Franchise Trading also includes the impact of the derivative valuation adjustments which includes credit and funding adjustments, bid-offer adjustments and associated hedges. For the September 2017 full year, the impact of credit and funding, net of associated hedges, contributed a gain of $229 million (Mar 17 half: $162 million gain: Sep 16 full year: loss of $102 million excluding the impact of the Derivative CVA methodology changes).

4. Balance Sheet represents hedging of interest rate risk on the Group’s loan and deposit books and the management of the Group’s liquidity portfolio.

5. Refer to pages 14 to 16 for further details.

Performance September 2017 v September 2016

  • Volumes grew in home loans in addition to higher balances in funds under management. Customer deposits grew across all portfolios.

  • Net interest margin declined as the result of a higher proportion of lower margin fixed rate lending and term deposits, pricing competition and higher average funding costs.

  • Other operating income decreased, more than offset by an increase in Net funds management and insurance income as the result of higher funds under management balances.

  • Operating expenses decreased as the result of a reduction in FTE driven by automation and transaction migration to lower cost channels, partially offset by inflation.

  • Credit impairment charges decreased due to an increase in write-backs and credit quality improvements across the Retail and Commercial and Agri portfolios, partially offset by increases to new and existing provisions.

1. Income from invested capital represents after tax revenue generated from investing all Insurance and Funds Management business's capital balances held for regulatory purposes. The invested capital as at 30 September 2017 was $3.3 billion (Mar 17: $3.4 billion; Sep 16: $3.4 billion), which comprises fixed interest securities of 49% and cash deposits of 51% (Mar 17: 48% fixed interest securities and 52% cash deposits, Sep 16: 48% fixed interest securities and 52% cash deposits).

2. Funds Management expense and funds under management relates to the Pensions & Investments business and excludes ANZ Share Investing.

3. Includes corporate authorised representatives of dealer groups wholly or partially owned by ANZ Wealth Australia and ANZ employed financial planners.

Performance September 2017 v September 2016

  • Insurance income decreased as the result of adverse retail life claims experience, a one-off experience loss due to the exit of a Group Life insurance plan, partially offset by reinsurance profit share and favourable claims experience in Lenders Mortgage Insurance.

  • Funds Management income decreased in line with the planned strategy to rationalise the legacy portfolio to SmartChoice, a simpler and lower risk model, which is now complete.

  • Corporate & Other income decreased due to realised gains in 2016 which was not repeated and investment market volatility on the guaranteed business.

  • Operating expenses decreased due to productivity initiatives that resulted in a reduction in FTE, partially offset by inflation and higher regulatory compliance and remediation spend.

1. The product lines used are on the same basis as prior periods. This is different to the product lines that are subject to a strategic review.

2. Embedded value represents the present value of future profits and releases of capital arising from the business in-force at the valuation date, and adjusted net assets. It is determined using best estimate assumptions with franking credits included at 70% of face value. Projected cash flows have been discounted using capital asset pricing model risk discount rates of 7.75%9.50%. ANZ Lenders Mortgage Insurance, ANZ Financial Planning and ANZ Share Investing businesses are not included in the valuation.

3. Value of new business represents the present value of future profits less the cost of capital arising from new business written over the period.

4. Expected return represents the expected increase in value over the period.

5. Experience deviations and assumption changes arise from deviations and changes to best estimate assumptions underlying the prior period embedded value. Negative experience was primarily driven by adverse claims experience during the year, strengthening of claims assumptions in Retail Insurance partially offset by implementation of various product initiatives.

6. Interest rate movements have led to a negative value impact.

7. Net transfer represents the net capital movements over the period including capital injections, transfer of cash dividends paid and value of franking credits. There was $225 million of cash dividends paid, $12 million of dividends in AT1 preference shares paid and the value of $54 million of franking credits which is expected to be transferred to the parent entity.

PROFIT RECONCILIATION

Non-IFRS information

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 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 ongoing 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 in the process of being audited within the context of the external auditor’s audit of the Group’s Annual Report. Cash profit is not subject to review or audit by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that recurring adjustments have been determined on a consistent basis across each period presented, and the additional adjustments for the impact of the reclassification of Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank to held for sale in 2017 reporting is appropriate.

Explanation of adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit

  • Treasury shares adjustment

ANZ shares held by the Group in Wealth Australia (Sep 17: 15.4 million shares; Mar 17: 15.3 million shares; Sep 16: 17.7 million shares) are deemed to be Treasury shares for accounting purposes. Dividends and realised and unrealised gains and losses from these shares are reversed as these 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. Accordingly, the full year gain of $58 million after tax ($61 million pre-tax) reversed for statutory accounting purposes has been added back to cash profit.

  • Revaluation of policy liabilities

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.

  • Economic and revenue 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 comprises:

  • 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 the Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar fluctuations against other major funding currencies.

  • 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 2017 full year, the majority of the loss in economic hedges adjusted from cash profit relates to funding related swaps, principally from tightening basis spreads on currency pairs most notably USD/EUR and USD/JPY.

Gains on revenue hedges adjusted from cash profit in the September 2017 full year are the result of the strengthening of the AUD against the NZD.

  • 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 2017 amounted to $0.7 billion (Mar 17: $0.7 billion: Sep 16: $0.7 billion). Both the bought and sold CDSs are measured at fair value through profit and loss. However, 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 $59 million (Mar 17: $65 million; Sep 16: $67 million) with CVA on the bought protection of $7 million (Mar 17: $9 million; Sep 16: $11 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.

  • Reclassification of SRCB to held for sale

On 3 January 2017, the Group announced that it had agreed to sell its 20% stake in Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank (SRCB). On 18 September 2017, the Group announced a revision to the 3 January arrangement in which Baoshan Iron & Steel Co. Ltd. (Bao) replaced Shanghai Sino-Poland Enterprise Management Development Corporation Limited to join China COSCO Shipping Corporation Limited (COSCO) to acquire ANZ’s 20% stake in SRCB. Under the updated arrangement, COSCO and Bao will each acquire a 10% stake in SRCB. The key financial terms of the revised sale agreement are unchanged from the transaction announced previously. The sale is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to be completed by late 2017.

In the September 2017 full year, the Group recognised a $219 million impairment to the investment (Mar 17 half: $219 million), $12 million of foreign exchange losses (Mar 17 half: $11 million) and $102 million of tax expenses (Mar 17 half: $86 million), following the reclassification of the investment to held for sale. This loss will be largely offset by the release of foreign currency translation and available for sale reserves of $289 million on sale completion. In light of the timing difference (and that these amounts largely offset), the impact is excluded from the cash profit result.

Other reclassifications between statutory profit and cash profit

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

The charge to income for derivative credit valuation adjustments of $1 million on defaulted and impaired derivative exposures has been reclassified to cash credit impairment charges in the September 2017 full year (Mar 17 half: $1 million; Sep 16 full year: $27 million). The reclassification has been made to reflect the manner in which the defaulted and impaired derivatives are managed.

  • Policyholders tax gross up (nil profit after tax impact)

For statutory reporting purposes, policyholders income tax and other related taxes paid on behalf of policyholders are included in both net funds management and insurance income and the Group’s income tax expense. The gross up of $277 million for the September 2017 full year (Mar 17 half: $161 million; Sep 16 full year: $217 million) has been excluded from the cash results as it does not reflect the underlying performance of the business which is assessed on a net of policyholders tax basis.

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 2017 and any public announcements made by the Parent Entity and its controlled entities (the Group) for the year ended 30 September 2017 (when released) 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 Statements;

  • are presented in Australian dollars unless otherwise stated; and

  • were approved by the Board of Directors on 25 October 2017.

i) Accounting policies

Except as outlined below, 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 2016 ANZ Annual Financial Statements.

Assets and liabilities held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are 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.

An impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write-down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell. A gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. A gain or loss not previously recognised by the date of the sale of the non-current asset is recognised at the date of derecognition.

Once classified as held for sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer amortised or depreciated, and any equity-accounted investee is no longer equity accounted.

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 hedging, the fair value adjustment on the underlying hedged exposure;

  • available for sale financial assets;

  • financial instruments held for trading;

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

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

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 2017 ANZ Annual Financial Statements (when released). Such estimates and judgements are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

At 30 September 2017, 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 the carrying value was supported by their value in use (VIU).

The VIU calculation is sensitive to a number of key assumptions, including discount rate, long term growth rates, future profitability and capital levels. The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations are outlined below:

Post-tax discount rate
Terminal growth rate
Expected NPAT growth (compound annual growth rate – 5 years)
Core equitytier 1 ratio

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.

1. Dividends paid to ordinary equity holders of the Company. Excludes dividends paid by subsidiaries of the Group to non-controlling equity holders for the September 2017 full year of $1.3 million (Mar 17 half: $1.3 million; Sep 16 full year: $1.4 million).

2. Dividend payout ratio is calculated using the proposed 2017 final dividend of $2,350 million (not shown in the above table). The proposed 2017 final dividend of $2,350 million is based on the forecast number of ordinary shares on issue at the dividend record date. Dividend payout ratios for the March 2017 half year and September 2016 full year are calculated using actual dividends paid of $2,349 million and $4,676 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 2017. The proposed 2017 final dividend will be fully franked for Australian tax purposes, and New Zealand imputation credits of NZ 10 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 2017 final dividend. For the 2017 final dividend, ANZ intends to provide shares under the DRP through an on-market purchase (as approved by APRA) 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 during the ten trading days commencing on 17 November 2017, 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 2017 final dividend must be received by ANZ's Share Registrar by 5.00pm (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) on 15 November 2017.

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 17 November 2017.

10. Assets and liabilities held for sale

The Group announced the following strategic divestments in line with the Group’s strategy to simplify the businesses and improve capital efficiency. Accordingly, they are presented as assets and liabilities held for sale.

  • Asia Retail and Wealth Businesses

The Group announced that it had agreed to sell Retail and Wealth businesses in Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan and Indonesia to Singapore’s DBS Bank on 31 October 2016, and its Retail business in Vietnam to Shinhan Bank Vietnam on 21 April 2017. During the September 2017 half, the Group successfully completed the sales in China, Singapore and Hong Kong. Subject to regulatory approval, the sales in Vietnam, Taiwan, and Indonesia are expected to complete in late 2017 and early 2018 and these remaining countries form the assets and liabilities held for sale. These businesses are part of the Asia Retail & Pacific division.

  • UDC Finance

On 11 January 2017, the Group announced it had agreed to sell UDC Finance to HNA Group. The sale is subject to certain conditions (including regulatory approvals) and we are working with HNA Group towards completion of the sale. This business is part of the New Zealand division.

  • Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank

On 3 January 2017, the Group announced that it had agreed to sell its 20% stake in Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank (SRCB). On 18 September 2017 the Group announced a revision to the 3 January arrangement in which Baoshan Iron & Steel Co. Ltd. (Bao) replaced Shanghai Sino-Poland Enterprise Management Development Corporation Limited to join China COSCO Shipping Corporation Limited (COSCO) to acquire ANZ’s 20% stake in SRCB. Under the updated arrangement, COSCO and Bao will each acquire a 10% stake in SRCB. The key financial terms of the revised sale agreement are unchanged from the transaction announced previously. The sale is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to complete late 2017. This asset is part of the TSO and Group Centre Division.

  • Metrobank Card Corporation

On 18 October 2017, the Group announced it had entered into an agreement with its joint venture partner Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (Metrobank) in relation to its 40% stake in the Philippines based Metrobank Card Corporation (MCC). The Group has agreed to sell 20% of its stake, and entered into a put option to sell the remaining 20% stake, exercisable in the fourth quarter of 2018 on the same terms for the same consideration. The asset has been classified as held for sale at 30 September 2017 as sale negotiations were well progressed at that time, and it was highly probable the sale transaction would complete within12 months. The sale is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. This asset is part of the TSO and Group Centre Division.

Income Statement impact relating to assets and liabilities held for sale

During the September 2017 full year, the Group recognised the following impacts in relation to assets and liabilities held for sale:

  • $310 million loss relating to the reclassification and partial completion of the Asia Retail and Wealth sale comprising of $222 million of software, goodwill and other assets impairment charges and $88 million of various other charges net of recoveries and sale premium.

  • $333 million loss relating to the Group’s investment in SRCB comprising of a $219 million impairment to the investment, $12 million of foreign exchange losses, and $102 million of tax expenses.

During the March 2017 half year, the Group recognised the following impacts in-relation to the assets and liabilities:

  • $324 million loss relating to the reclassification of the Group’s Asia Retail and Wealth businesses to held for sale comprising of $225 million of software, goodwill and other assets impairment charges and $99 million of costs associated with the sale.

  • $316 million loss relating to the Group’s investment in SRCB comprising of a $219 million impairment to the investment, $11 million of foreign exchange losses, and $86 million of tax expenses.

The net result of these impacts is included in ‘Other income’ and ‘Income tax expense’ (refer Note 2 and 4).

Assets and liabilities held for sale

At 30 September 2017, assets and liabilities held for sale are 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.

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.

2. On 3 January 2017, the Group announced that it had agreed to sell its 20% stake in Shanghai Rural Commercial Bank (SRCB). On 18th September the Group announced a revision to the 3 January arrangement in which Baoshan Iron & Steel Co. Ltd. (Bao) replaced Shanghai SinoPoland Enterprise Management Development Corporation Limited to join China COSCO Shipping Corporation Limited (COSCO) to acquire ANZ’s 20% stake in SRCB. Under the updated arrangement, COSCO and Bao will each acquire a 10% stake in SRCB. The key financial terms of the revised sale agreement are unchanged from the transaction announced previously. The sale is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to be completed by late 2017. As a consequence, the Group ceased equity accounting for the investment in SRCB and commenced accounting for it as an asset held for sale.

3. On 30 March 2016, the Bank of Tianjin (BoT) completed a capital raising and initial public offering (IPO) on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. As a result, the Group’s equity interest reduced from 14% to 12% and the Group ceased equity accounting the investment due to losing the ability to appoint directors to the Board of BoT at this date. From 31 March 2016, the investment was classified as an available for sale asset.

4. Includes Metrobank Card Corporation (MCC).On 18 October 2017, the Group announced it had entered into an agreement with its joint venture partner Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (Metrobank) in relation to its 40% stake in the Philippines based Metrobank Card Corporation (MCC). The Group has agreed to sell 20% of its stake, and entered into a put option to sell the remaining 20% stake, exercisable in the fourth quarter of 2018 on the same terms for the same consideration. As the sale was announced after balance date, equity accounted earnings are included for the September 2017 full year.

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. 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 2017 ANZ Annual Financial Statements (when released) will contain a description of contingent liabilities and contingent assets as at 30 September 2017. A summary of some of those contingent liabilities is set out below.

  • Bank fees litigation

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. A further action, limited to late payment fees only, commenced in August 2014.

The penalty and statutory claims in the March 2013 class action failed and the claims have been dismissed. The August 2014 action was discontinued in October 2016.

The original claims in the 2010 class action have been dismissed. A new claim has been added to the 2010 class action, in relation to the Company’s entitlement to charge certain periodical payment non-payment fees.

  • 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, SIBOR, or SOR. The claimants seek damages or compensation in amounts not specified, and allege that the defendant banks, including the Company, violated US anti-trust laws, anti-racketeering laws, the Commodity Exchange Act, and (in the BBSW case only) 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.

  • Regulatory reviews and customer exposures

In recent years there have been significant increases in the nature and scale of regulatory investigations and reviews, enforcement actions (whether by court action or otherwise) and the quantum of fines issued by regulators, particularly against financial institutions both in Australia and globally. The nature of these investigations and reviews can be wide ranging and, for example, currently include a range of matters including responsible lending practices, product suitability, wealth advice, pricing and competition, conduct in financial markets and capital market transactions. During the year, ANZ has received various notices and requests for information from its regulators as part of both industry-wide and ANZ-specific reviews. 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.

  • Security recovery actions

Various claims have been made or are anticipated, arising from security recovery actions taken to resolve impaired assets over recent years. ANZ will defend these claims.

15. Subsequent events since balance date

On 17 October 2017, the Group announced it had agreed to sell OnePath pensions and investments (OnePath P&I) and aligned dealer groups (ADG) business to IOOF Holdings Limited (IOOF) for $975 million. Completion is expected in March 2019 half subject to certain conditions including regulatory approvals and the completion of the extraction of the OnePath P&I business from OnePath Life Insurance. The expected accounting loss on sale of ~$120 million is anticipated as a result of the sale, however the final gain/loss on sale will be determined at completion and will be impacted by transaction and separation costs, final determination of goodwill to be disposed, other balances and final taxation impacts.

On 18 October 2017, the Group announced it had entered into an agreement with its joint venture partner Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (Metrobank) regarding the sale of its 40% stake in the Philippines based Metrobank Card Corporation (MCC). The Group has agreed to sell one half its 40% stake in MCC to Metrobank, for US$144 million (A$184 million) expected to settle in late 2017. The Group also entered into a put option to sell its remaining 20% stake to Metrobank, exercisable in the September 2018 half on the same terms and for the same consideration. If exercised, this would deliver a total sale price of US$288 million (A$368 million). The sale is subject to customary regulatory approvals.

On 23 October 2017, the Group announced it had reached a confidential in-principle agreement with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) to settle court action in respect of interbank trading and the bank bill swap rate (BBSW). A final resolution had not been agreed at the date of this report. Based on the in-principle agreement, the financial impact to ANZ has been reflected in the financial statements.

Other than the matters above, there have been no significant events from 30 September 2017 to the date of signing this report.

1. The product lines used are on the same basis as prior periods. This is different to the product lines that are subject to the strategic review in Wealth Australia.

2. Embedded value represents the present value of future profits and releases of capital arising from the business in-force at the valuation date, and adjusted net assets. It is determined using best estimate assumptions with franking credits included at 70% of face value. Projected cash flows have been discounted using capital asset pricing model risk discount rates of 7.75%9.50%. ANZ Lenders Mortgage Insurance, ANZ Financial Planning and ANZ Share Investing businesses are not included in the valuation. Value of new business represents the present value of future profits less the cost of capital arising from new business written over the period.

3. Value of new business represents the present value of future profits less the cost of capital arising from new business written over the period.

4. Expected return represents the expected increase in value over the period.

5. Experience deviations and assumption changes arise from deviations and changes to best estimate assumptions underlying the prior period embedded value. Negative experience in Wealth Australia was primarily driven by adverse claims experience during the year, strengthening of claims assumptions in Retail Insurance partially offset by implementation of various product initiatives.

6. Interest rate movements have led to a negative value impact.

7. Net transfer represents the net capital movements over the period including capital injections, transfer of cash dividends paid and value of franking credits. For Wealth Australia there was $225 million of cash dividends paid, $12 million of dividends in AT1 preference shares paid and the value of $54 million of franking credits which is expected to be transferred to the parent entity. For New Zealand there were NZD $50m of cash dividends paid.

DEFINITIONS

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

ADI – Authorised Deposit-taking Institution.

APRA – Australian Prudential Regulation Authority.

APS – ADI Prudential Standard.

BCBS – Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.

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 ongoing 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 ongoing 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.

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

Derivative 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.

Dividend payout ratio is the total ordinary dividend payment divided by profit attributable to shareholders of the Company, adjusted for the amount of preference share dividends paid.

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

IFRS – International Financial Reporting Standards.

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.

Individual provision is the amount of expected credit losses on financial 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.

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).

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 provisions for credit impairment.

115

DEFINITIONS

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

Operating expenses include personnel expenses, premises expenses, technology expenses, restructuring expenses, and other operating expenses (excluding credit impairment charges).

Operating income includes net interest income, net fee and commission income, net funds management and insurance income, share of associates’ profit and other income.

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, adjusted for the amount of preference share dividends paid, divided by average total assets.

Return on average ordinary shareholders’ equity is the profit attributable to shareholders of the Company, adjusted for the amount of preference share dividends paid, divided by average ordinary shareholders’ equity.

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

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.

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, nostro/vostro accounts and securities settlement accounts.

Description of divisions

During the March 2017 half, the Group made changes to the Group’s operating model for technology, operations and shared services to accelerate delivery of its technology and digital roadmap, bring operations closer to its customers and continue operational efficiency gains.
