Within this document 'the Group' refers to Standard Chartered PLC together with its subsidiary undertakings. The regions of Greater China, North East (NE) Asia, South Asia, ASEAN, MENAP, are defined in the Glossary on pages 61 – 65. Throughout this document, unless specified, the disclosures are at Group level. Throughout this document, unless another currency is specified, the word 'dollar' or symbol \$ means United States dollar. Throughout this document IRB refers to advanced internal ratings-based models. The Group does not use the Foundation IRB approach.

1 Introduction

1.1 Purpose and basis of presentation

The Pillar 3 Disclosures comprise detailed information on the underlying drivers of risk-weighted assets (RWA) and capital ratios as at 30 June 2017 in accordance with the European Union's (EU) Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) as implemented in the United Kingdom (UK) by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA).

This report presents the interim Pillar 3 disclosures of Standard Chartered PLC ('the Group') as at 30 June 2017 and should be read in conjunction with the Group's Half Year Report 2017.

The disclosures have been prepared in accordance with the European Banking Authority (EBA)'s revised guidelines on Pillar 3 disclosure formats and frequency, that were published in December 2016. In addition to summary capital and leverage disclosures, the guidelines require specific templates to be disclosed on a semi-annual basis, and those templates that were early adopted as at 2016 year end are included within this report. We have included the EBA table references in the titles of those early adopted templates in brackets. The full set of disclosures in the EBA Guidelines will be adopted fully at 2017 year end.

The information presented in this Pillar 3 report is not required to be, and has not been, subjected to external audit.

1.2 Highlights

  • • The Group is well capitalised with low leverage and high levels of loss absorbing capacity.
  • • The Group's CET1 ratio of 13.8 per cent was ahead of both the current requirement of 8.0 per cent and the expected end-state requirement for 2019 of 9.9 per cent, which includes the Pillar 1 and 2A minimum requirements and the CRD IV capital buffers that are known at this time.
  • • The Group has low leverage with a UK leverage ratio of 6.0 per cent which is above the current minimum requirement of 3.2 per cent.
  • • The Group's risk-weighted assets (RWA) increased by \$4.7 billion, or 2 per cent from 31 December 2016 to \$274.2 billion. This was mainly due to a \$6.8 billion increase in credit risk RWA (including counterparty credit risk and amounts below the thresholds for deduction) and a \$1.1 billion increase in market risk RWA, partly offset by a \$3.2 billion decrease in operational risk RWA. The main drivers are asset growth and foreign currency translation, offset by lower operational risk RWA on account of lower average income.

1.3 Accounting and regulatory consolidation

The Pillar 3 Disclosures are prepared at the Group consolidated level. All banking subsidiaries are fully consolidated and the treatment is the same for both regulatory and accounting purposes. For associates and joint ventures, the regulatory treatment differs from the accounting policy, which applies the equity accounting method.

The regulatory consolidation approaches used by the Group are shown in the following table, which identifies the principal undertakings, including investments, associates and joint ventures, which are all

principally engaged in the business of banking and provision of other financial services.

The primary difference between financial consolidation and regulatory consolidation is PT Bank Permata Tbk, which is equity accounted for in the accounts and fully consolidated for regulatory purposes. PT Bank Permata Tbk's Annual Report and Accounts are completed in compliance with their local regulations and are published on their website www.permatabank.com/TentangKami/Hubungan-Investor/

1.4 Significant subsidiaries

CRR Article 13 concerns the application of disclosure requirements of significant subsidiaries of EU parent institutions and those which are of material significance to their local market. The chart below represents a simplified Group structure.

1 Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited is owned 49% by Standard Chartered Holdings Limited and 51% by Standard Chartered Bank

Standard Chartered Bank is the main operating subsidiary of the Group. The Group has four other significant subsidiaries

  • • Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited (regulated by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority) and it is a Domestically Systemically Important Bank (D-SIB)
  • • Standard Chartered Bank Korea Limited (regulated by the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) in Korea)
  • • Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited (regulated by the Monetary Authority Of Singapore) and
  • • Standard Chartered Bank (Uganda) Limited (regulated by the Bank of Uganda)

Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited and Standard Chartered Bank (Uganda) Limited qualify as the Group's significant subsidiaries as they are D-SIBs.

2 Capital

2.1 Capital management

The Group's capital and leverage position is managed within the Board-approved risk appetite. The Group is well capitalised with low leverage and high levels of loss absorbing capacity.

2.2 Capital resources

All capital instruments included in the capital base meet the requirements set out in the CRR for their respective tier of capital, except for those that are subject to a grandfathering period. Grandfathered capital instruments will be fully phased out of their respective tier of capital by 1 January 2022.

Table 2 below summarises the consolidated capital position of the Group.

3 Foreseeable dividend as at H1 2017 represents ordinary dividends and preference dividends payable during the next six months in 2017. The ordinary dividends are reduced by any scrip dividends applicable at H1 2017

4 Movement of AT1, T2 instruments refer to Half Year Report 2017 on page 60

The Group's countercyclical capital buffer (CCyB) requirement is determined by applying various country specific CCyB rates to the Group's qualifying credit exposures in the relevant country (based on the jurisdiction of the obligor) on a weighted average basis.

As at 30 June 2017, the Group's CCyB requirement was 0.15 per cent. The majority of this CCyB requirement related to exposures to Hong Kong counterparties, with exposures to other jurisdictions having an immaterial impact on the Group's CCyB.

Table 4 represents the requirement of the EBA/RTS/2014/17 on disclosure for own funds to disclose further relevant information for countries to which we have an exposure. This is also required where no countercyclical capital buffer rate has been implemented.

Countries are where the relevant own funds requirements of the country is greater than 1 per cent of the Group's total relevant own funds requirements for CCyB calculation.

2 The FPC has increased the UK CCyB rate to 0.5 per cent, effective June 2018. The FPC has also indicated that absent a material change in the outlook, they expect to increase the rate to 1 per cent, effective November 2018. These changes, including the expected 1 per cent CCyB in the UK, will have an impact of circa 13bps on the Group's CCyB, assuming 30 June 2017 exposures remain constant

1 Credit risk (excluding counterparty credit risk) includes non-credit obligation assets

2 Counterparty credit risk includes assets which are assessed under IRB and Standardised approaches

3 The regulatory capital requirement is calculated at 8 per cent of the risk-weighted assets representing the minimum total capital ratio in accordance with CRR Article 92 (1)

The Group's risk-weighted assets (RWA) increased by \$4.7 billion, or 2 per cent from 31 December 2016. This was mainly due to a \$6.8 billion increase in credit risk RWA (including counterparty credit risk and amounts below the thresholds for deduction) and a \$1.1 billion increase in market risk RWA partly offset by a \$3.2 billion decrease in operational risk RWA. The main drivers are asset growth and foreign currency translation offset by lower operational risk RWA on account of lower average income.

2.5 UK leverage ratio

UK banks are subject to a minimum leverage ratio of 3 per cent, together with a supplementary leverage ratio buffer set at 35 per cent of the corresponding G-SII capital buffer and the countercyclical capital buffer, as those buffers are applicable to individual banks and as phased in.

At 30 June 2017, the Group's current minimum requirement was 3.2 per cent. The Group's UK leverage ratio is also above the expected future requirement of 3.5 per cent from 2019, which comprises:

  • (i) the minimum 3 per cent,
  • (ii) a 0.4 per cent G-SII leverage ratio buffer and
  • (iii) a 0.1 per cent countercyclical capital leverage ratio buffer, based on currently known pending countercyclical capital buffer rates and assuming a constant proportion of exposures to the relevant jurisdictions.

The Group's current UK leverage ratio of 6.0 per cent is above the current minimum requirement. The leverage ratio in the period remained flat mainly due to an increase in Tier 1 capital offset by an increase in the leverage exposure measure.

Table 10: UK leverage Ratio and CRR leverage Ratio

During the period, the Bank of England's Financial Policy Committee (FPC) and PRA proposed changes to the UK leverage ratio framework. The FPC has made a recommendation to the PRA to exclude qualifying claims on central banks exposures from the leverage exposure measure in the UK leverage ratio framework and to compensate for the resulting reduction in capital required by increasing the minimum leverage requirement from 3 per cent to 3.25 per cent.

Due to the PRA having granted a waiver, the Group has been reporting the leverage ratio on a UK basis (excluding qualifying claims on central banks exposures) from March 2017, and does not expect any material impact arising from the proposed increase in minimum requirements.

Table 10 below presents both the Group's UK leverage ratio, and CRR leverage ratio. The UK leverage ratio is approximately 30 basis points higher than on a CRR basis as at 30 June 2017 due to the exclusion of qualifying claims on central banks exposures from the exposure measure.

2 Tier 1 capital (end point) differs from Tier 1 capital in Table 2 due to the ineligibility of certain preference shares that do not qualify for inclusion in Tier 1 capital on an end point basis

The UK leverage ratio increased by 10 basis points in Q2 2017 mainly due to a decrease in the exposure measure.

3.1 Exposure values

Table 14 below details the Group's Exposure at Default (EAD), including counterparty risk, before the effect of collateral but after the effect of substitution. Credit risk EAD is based on the current outstanding exposure and accrued interest and fees, which are recognised in the

Group's balance sheet in accordance with IFRS, plus a proportion of any undrawn facility. For Standardised EAD, the proportion of any undrawn facility included is dependent on the facility type and tenor, and for IRB exposure classes this proportion is modelled.

3.2 Risk grade profile

Table 15 sets out analysis of credit risk EAD (excluding counterparty credit risk) within the IRB portfolios by regulatory exposure classes. EAD has been calculated after taking into account the impact of credit risk mitigation. Where an exposure is guaranteed or covered by credit derivatives, it is shown against the exposure class of the guarantor or

3.4 Standardised risk weight profile

External ratings, where available, are used to assign risk weights for standardised approach (SA) exposures. These external ratings must come from EU approved rating agencies, known as External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAI); which currently includes Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch. The Group uses the ECAI ratings from these agencies in its day-to-day business, which are tracked and kept updated. Assessments provided by approved ECAI are mapped to credit quality steps as prescribed by the CRR.

The Group currently does not use assessments provided by expert credit agencies for the purpose of calculating RWA in the Standardised Approach.

Table 28 and Table 29 set out an analysis of Standardised credit risk EAD before and after CRM associated with each risk weight as prescribed in Part Three, Title II, Chapter 2 of the CRR, excluding counterparty credit risk. Regulatory risk weights based on the exposure classes are applied to unrated exposures. The 2016 comparative tables are re-presented to exclude counterparty credit risk.

3.5 Counterparty credit risk

Counterparty credit risk (CCR) is the risk that the Group's counterparty in a foreign exchange, interest rate, commodity, equity or credit derivative contract defaults prior to the maturity date of the contract and that the Group at the time has a claim on the counterparty. CCR arises predominantly in the trading book, but also arises in the non-trading book due to hedging of external funding.

CCR is managed within the overall credit risk appetite for corporate and financial institutions and CCR limits are set for individual counterparties (including central clearing counterparties) and specific portfolio concentrations. Such limits take into account the credit quality and nature of the counterparty and are set in exposure value terms.

The Group reduces its credit exposures to counterparties by entering into contractual netting agreements which result in a single amount

Table 30: Counterparty credit risk (CCR5-A)

owed by or to the counterparty through netting the sum of the positive (amounts owed by the counterparty) and negative (amounts owed by the Group) mark-to-market (MTM) values of these transactions. Following International Accounting Standard (IAS) 32 requirements, the Group is permitted to offset assets and liabilities and present these net on the Group's balance sheet, only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off and the Group intends to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and liability simultaneously.

Table 30 below covers the credit exposure on derivative transactions after taking into account the benefits from legally enforceable netting agreements and the capital requirement by derivative type. The notional values settled with central counterparties and on a recognised trading exchange are also shown.

Table 33 below details the exposure value and related RWA for the regulatory credit valuation adjustment (CVA) charge. CVA measures the risk of mark-to-market losses arising from deterioration in the credit quality of a counterparty to an over-the-counter (OTC) derivative transaction. It complements the CCR capital requirements, which measure the risk of default of a counterparty to these transactions.

4 Market risk

Market risk is the potential for loss of economic value due to adverse changes in financial market rates or prices. The Group's exposure to market risk arises predominantly from these sources:

  • • Trading book: The Group provides clients access to financial markets, facilitation of which entails the Group taking moderate market risk positions. All trading teams support client activity; there are no proprietary trading teams. Hence, income earned from market risk-related activities is primarily driven by the volume of client activity rather than risk-taking. From 1 January 2016 Credit and Funding Valuation Adjustment (XVA) risk has been recognised in trading book market risk.
  • • Non-trading book:
  • – The Treasury Markets desk is required to hold a liquid assets buffer much of which is held in high-quality marketable debt securities.
  • – The Group has capital invested and related income streams denominated in currencies other than US dollars. To the extent that these are not hedged the Group is subject to structural foreign exchange risk which is reflected in reserves.

Interest rate risk from non-trading book portfolios is transferred to local Treasury Markets desks under the supervision of local Asset and Liability Committees. Treasury Markets deals in the market in approved financial instruments in order to manage the net interest rate risk, subject to approved Value-at-Risk (VaR) and risk limits.

Table 41: Market risk regulatory capital requirements

The primary categories of market risk for the Group are:

  • • interest rate risk: arising from changes in yield curves, credit spreads and implied volatilities on interest rate options including the risk arising from changes in the credit spread of derivatives' counterparties through CVA accounting;
  • • currency exchange rate risk: arising from changes in exchange rates and implied volatilities on foreign exchange options; and,
  • • commodity price risk: arising from changes in commodity prices and implied volatilities on commodity options; covering energy, precious metals, base metals and agriculture.

Market risk regulatory capital requirements

The PRA specifies minimum capital requirements against market risk in the trading book. Interest rate risk in the non-trading book is covered separately under the Pillar 2 framework.

The PRA has granted the Group permission to use the Internal Model Approach (IMA) covering the majority of interest rate, foreign exchange, and commodity market risk in the trading book. Positions outside the IMA scope are assessed according to standard PRA rules.

The minimum regulatory market risk capital requirements for the trading book are presented on the following page for the Group.

Backtesting

Regulatory backtesting is applied at both Group and Solo levels. In the year to 30 June 2017, there have been no negative exceptions. (In the previous year to 30 June 2016, there were three exceptions at Group level and three exceptions at Solo level).

Up to four exceptions in a year due to market events are within the 'green zone' applied internationally to internal models by bank supervisors (Basel Committee on Banking Supervision: 'Supervisory framework for the use of "backtesting" in conjunction with the internal models approach to market risk capital requirements', January 1996).

The graphs below illustrate the performance of the VaR model used in the Group capital calculations. They compare the 99 percentile loss confidence level given by the VaR model with the Hypothetical and Actual profit and loss of each day given the real market movements. Actual backtesting profit and loss excludes from trading profit and loss brokerage expense, fees and commissions, non-market-related accounting valuation adjustments and accounting debit valuation adjustments. Hypothetical backtesting profit and loss further excludes profit and loss from new deals and market operations.

approach for capital adequacy calculations. It is measured as the Group-modelled view of anticipated loss based
on Probability of Default (PD), Loss Given Default (LGD) and Exposure at Default (EAD), with a one-year
time horizon.
Exposure Credit exposures represent the amount lent to a customer, together with any undrawn commitment.
Exposure at default (EAD) The estimation of the extent to which the Group may be exposed to a customer or counterparty in the event of,
and at the time of, that counterparty's default. At default, the customer may not have drawn the loan fully or may

Loss-Absorbing Capacity (TLAC) requirements, resolvability requirements and higher supervisory expectations
and are being phased in from 1 January 2016.
Haircut A haircut, or volatility adjustment, ensures the value of exposures and collateral are adjusted to account for the
volatility caused by foreign exchange or maturity mismatches, when the currency and maturity of an exposure
differ materially to the currency and maturity of the associated collateral.

risk-weighted assets.
Repurchase agreement
(repo)/reverse repurchase
agreement (reverse repo)
A short-term funding agreement which allows a borrower to sell a financial asset, such as ABS or government

Retail Internal Ratings
Based (Retail IRB)
Approach
In accordance with the PRA handbook BIPRU 4.6/CRR, the approach to calculating credit risk capital
requirements for eligible retail exposures.
Risk appetite Risk appetite is an expression of the amount of risk we are willing to take in pursuit of our strategic objectives,
reflecting our capacity to sustain losses and continue to meet our obligations arising from a range of different
stress trading conditions.
Risk-weighted assets
(RWA)

value in accordance with the applicable Standardised or IRB approach rules.
RWA density The risk-weighted asset as a percentage of exposure at default.
Scrip dividends Dividends paid to existing shareholders in securities instead of cash payment.
Securities Financing
Transactions (SFT)
The act of loaning a stock, derivative, other security to an investor.
Securitisation Securitisation is a process by which debt instruments are aggregated into a pool, which is used to back new
securities. A company sells assets to a special purpose entity (SPE) who then issues securities backed by the
assets based on their value. This allows the credit quality of the assets to be separated from the credit rating
of the original company and transfers risk to external investors.
Securitisation position(s) The positions assumed by the Group following the purchase of securities issued by Asset-Backed Securitisation
programmes or those retained following the origination of a securitisation programme.
South Asia South Asia includes the Group's operation in the People's Republic of Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Sri Lanka.
Specialised lending Specialised lending exposures are defined as an exposure to an entity which was created specifically to finance
and/or operate physical assets, where the contractual arrangements give the lender a substantial degree of

control over the assets and the income that they generate, and the primary source of repayment of the obligation is the income generated by the assets being financed, rather than the independent capacity of a broader commercial enterprise. Special Purpose Entities (SPEs) SPEs are entities that are created to accomplish a narrow and well-defined objective. There are often specific restrictions or limits around their ongoing activities. Transactions with SPEs take a number of forms, including: the provision of financing to fund asset purchases, or commitments to provide finance for future purchases;

derivative transactions to provide investors in the SPE with a specified exposure; the provision of liquidity or backstop facilities which may be drawn upon if the SPE experiences future funding difficulties; and direct investment in the notes issued by SPEs.

Standardised Approach In relation to credit risk, a method for calculating credit risk capital requirements using External Credit
Assessment Institutions (ECAI) ratings and supervisory risk-weights. In relation to operational risk, a
method of calculating the operational risk capital requirement by the application of a supervisory defined
percentage charge to the gross income of eight specified business lines.

of stress for a trading portfolio.
Sub-prime Sub-prime is defined as loans to borrowers typically having weakened credit histories that include payment
delinquencies and potentially more severe problems such as court judgements and bankruptcies.
Through the cycle (TTC) Reduces the volatility in the estimation of the probability of default by considering the average conditions over
the economic cycle at the point of default, versus the point in time (PIT) approach, which considers economic
conditions at the point of the economic cycle at which default occurs.
Tier 1 capital Tier 1 capital comprises Common Equity Tier 1 capital plus Additional Tier 1 securities and related share
premium accounts.

Total Loss Absorbing
Capacity (TLAC)

intent or in order to hedge other elements of the trading book and which are either free of any restrictive
covenants on their tradability or ability to be hedged.
Value at Risk (VaR) VaR, in general, is a quantitative measure of market risk that applies recent historical market conditions to
estimate the potential future loss in market value that will not be exceeded in a set time period at a set statistical
confidence level.
Write downs After an advance has been identified as impaired and is subject to an impairment allowance, the stage may be
reached whereby it is concluded that there is no realistic prospect of further recovery. Write downs will occur
when and to the extent that, the whole or part of a debt is considered irrecoverable.
Wrong way risk Wrong way risk occurs when an exposure increase is coupled with a decrease in the credit quality of the obligor.
