Net interest margin down

11 basis points in 3Q18

•5bps of the decline due to rise in Bank Bill Swap Rate (BBSW), 4bps due to a lower Treasury contribution and

other factors impacted margins by 2bps

Well placed to meet

APRA’s CET1

unquestionably strong

benchmark

•Common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio 10.4% at 30 June 2018

•Down from 10.5% at 31 March 2018 as capital generated over the quarter (including conversion of $566m of

preference shares (CPS) to ordinary shares) was more than offset by the determination of the 1H18 dividend

(net of the DRP)

•Risk weighted assets (RWA) up modestly (0.4%); credit RWAs up $0.2bn and non-credit RWA up $1.6bn. No

material impact on RWA from regulatory model changes in 3Q18

•Internationally comparable

1

CET1 capital ratio 16.0% at 30 June 2018

Credit quality remains

sound

•Credit quality metrics remain near cyclical lows

•Level of impaired assets stable with no new individual impaired loans over $10m in the quarter. Stressed

assets to TCE

2

1bp lower at 1.08%

•Australian mortgage 90+ day delinquencies 0.72% (up 3bps over the quarter)

•Australian unsecured 90+ day delinquencies 1.76% (up 5bps over the quarter)

Sound funding/liquidity

position

•Net stable funding ratio (NSFR) 112%, liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) 127% - well above regulatory minimums

•$31bn term funding issued to end July 2018. FY18 term funding largely complete


Mortgage growth

comfortably within macro-

prudential boundaries

•Flow of interest only lending (based on limits) was 24% in 3Q18 (APRA requirement <30%)

•Interest only lending represented 37% of portfolio at 30 June 2018 (down from 40% at 31 March 2018)

•Investor lending growth, using APRA definition, 3.7% - comfortably below 10% cap

Regulatory

developments

•Estimated impact of model changes during 4Q18 from changes to operational risk model overlay and updates

to mortgage PD

3

models to add approximately $11.5bn in RWA, ~30bps reduction in CET1 ratio

•New consultation released from APRA on capital in 3Q18 on proposed changes to international comparability

•Further updates from APRA on proposals to the capital framework expected later in 2018

•AASB 9 applicable from 1 October 2018

Margins lower in 3Q18

Westpac Group 3Q18 Capital, Funding and Asset Quality Update

•Every 5bp movement in BBSW impacts Westpac’s margins by

around 1bp

•In 3Q18 margins declined by 11bps

‒5bps due to higher BBSW – which was up 24bps over 3Q18

‒4bps due to a lower Treasury contribution, principally due to less

opportunities in markets

‒2bps from all other factors. These included ongoing changes in

the mix of the mortgage portfolio (less interest only lending) along

with lower rates on new mortgages. These were partially offset

by some deposit repricing

Regulatory developments

Westpac Group 3Q18 Capital, Funding and Credit Quality Update

Regulatory capital framework

•On 14 August 2018, APRA released their next capital paper –

Improving the transparency, comparability and flexibility of the ADI

1


capital framework

−None of the proposals under consideration would change the

level of capital ADIs are required to hold to meet the

unquestionably strong capital benchmarks

•Following the release in February 2018 – Revisions to the capital

framework for ADIs, ADIs including Westpac, have completed an

initial quantitative impact study (QIS), which will be used by APRA

to inform calibration of the changes

•APRA is intending to introduce a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%

from 1 July 2019

•Further updates from APRA are expected later in 2018





•Applicable for Westpac from 1 October 2018

•For regulatory capital purposes, the impact of potential credit losses

is captured through regulatory expected loss

•Significant buffer ($1.5bn) to absorb a rise in accounting provisions

Appendix 1: Definitions – Capital & Funding

Westpac Group 3Q18 Capital, Funding and Credit Quality Update

15

Appendix and Disclaimer

Capital ratios

As defined by APRA (unless stated otherwise)

Committed

liquidity facility

(CLF)


The RBA makes available to Australian Authorised Deposit-taking

institutions a CLF that, subject to qualifying conditions, can be accessed

to meet LCR requirements under APS210 Liquidity

Internationally

comparable

ratios


Internationally comparable regulatory capital ratios are Westpac’s

estimated ratios after adjusting the capital ratios determined under APRA

Basel III regulations for various items. Analysis aligns with the APRA

study titled “International capital comparison study” dated 13 July 2015

Leverage ratio


As defined by APRA (unless stated otherwise). Tier 1 capital divided by

‘exposure measure’ and expressed as a percentage. ‘Exposure measure’

is the sum of on-balance sheet exposures, derivative exposures,

securities financing transaction exposures and other off-balance sheet

exposures

Liquidity

coverage ratio

(LCR)


An APRA requirement to maintain an adequate level of unencumbered

high quality liquid assets (HQLA), to meet liquidity needs for a 30 calendar

day period under an APRA-defined severe stress scenario. Absent a

situation of financial stress, the value of the LCR must not be less than

100%. LCR is calculated as the percentage ratio of stock of HQLA and

CLF over the total net cash out-flows in a modelled 30 day defined

stressed scenario

Net stable

funding ratio

(NSFR)



The NSFR is defined as the ratio of the amount of available stable funding

(ASF) to the amount of required stable funding (RSF) defined by APRA.

The amount of ASF is the portion of an ADI’s capital and liabilities

expected to be a reliable source of funds over a one year time horizon.

The amount of RSF is a function of the liquidity characteristics and

residual maturities of an ADI’s assets and off-balance sheet activities.

ADI’s must maintain an NSFR of at least 100%

Risk weighted

assets or 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 case of default. In the case of non-asset-backed risks (ie. market

and operational risk), RWA is determined by multiplying the capital

requirements for those risks by 12.5
































































































































































Appendix 1: Definitions – Credit Quality

Westpac Group 3Q18 Capital, Funding and Credit Quality Update

16

Appendix and Disclaimer

Collectively

assessed

provisions

(CAP)


Loans not found to be individually impaired or significant will be collectively

assessed in pools of similar assets with similar risk characteristics. The size

of the provision is an estimate of the losses already incurred and will be

estimated on the basis of historical loss experience for assets with credit

characteristics similar to those in the collective pool. The historical loss

experience will be adjusted based on current observable data. Included in

the collectively assessed provision is an overlay provision which is

calculated based on changes that occurred in sectors of the economy or in

the economy as a whole

Impaired

assets


Includes exposures that have deteriorated to the point where full collection

of interest and principal is in doubt, based on an assessment of the

customer’s outlook, cash flow, and the net realisation of value of assets to

which recourse is held and includes:

•facilities 90 days or more past due, and full recovery is in doubt:

exposures where contractual payments are 90 or more days in arrears

and the net realisable value of assets to which recourse is held may not

be sufficient to allow full collection of interest and principal, including

overdrafts or other revolving facilities that remain continuously outside

approved limits by material amounts for 90 or more calendar days;

•non-accrual assets: exposures with individually assessed impairment

provisions held against them, excluding restructured loans;

•restructured assets: exposures where the original contractual terms

Provisions raised for losses that have already been incurred on loans that

interest will be recognised in the income statement

impaired and impaired assets

funds placement overall and deposits placed), contingent and pre-

settlement risk plus the committed portion of secondary market trading

and underwriting risk

Watchlist and

and financial difficulty but are not expected to incur loss of interest or

principal

90 days past due

and not impaired

•contractual payments of interest and/or principal are 90 or more

calendar days overdue, including overdrafts or other revolving

facilities that remain continuously outside approved limits by

material amounts for 90 or more calendar days (including accounts

for customers who have been granted hardship assistance); or

•an order has been sought for the customer’s bankruptcy or similar

legal action has been instituted which may avoid or delay

repayment of its credit obligations; and

•the estimated net realisable value of assets / security to which

Westpac has recourse is sufficient to cover repayment of all

principal and interest, or where there are otherwise reasonable

grounds to expect payment in full and interest is being taken to

profit on an accrual basis

These facilities, while in default, are not treated as impaired for

accounting purposes

‘believe’, ‘aim’, or other similar words to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are

subject to change, certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are, in many instances, beyond our control, and have been made based upon management’s

expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon us. There can be no assurance that future developments will be

in accordance with our expectations or that the effect of future developments on us will be those anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those which we expect,

depending on the outcome of various factors. Factors that may impact on the forward-looking statements made include, but are not limited to, those described in the section
