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 proposed 2022 interim dividend. For the 2022 interim dividend, ANZ intends to provide shares under the DRP 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 and Chi-X during the ten trading days commencing on 13 May 2022, 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 2022 interim dividend must be received by ANZ's Share Registrar by 5.00pm

(Australian Eastern Standard Time) on 11 May 2022. 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 13 May 2022.









1.

Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are to the half year ended 31 March 2021.

2.

Cash profit excludes non-core items included in statutory profit and is provided to assist readers in understanding the result of the core 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 comprise economic hedging and similar accounting items that

represent timing differences that will reverse through earnings in the future. The net after tax adjustment was a reduction to statutory profit of $422 million (all attributable to continuing

operations) made up of several items. Refer pages 71 to 73 for further details.

3.

There is no conduit foreign income attributed to the dividends.

4.

It is proposed that the interim dividend will be fully franked for Australian tax purposes (30% tax rate) and carry New Zealand imputation credits of NZD 9 cents per ordinary share.

Guide to Half Year Results

NON-IFRS INFORMATION

Statutory profit is prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards, which comply with

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 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, a non-IFRS measure, represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the core business activities of the Group, enabling readers to

assess Group and Divisional performance against prior periods and against peer institutions. The adjustments made in arriving at cash profit are included

in statutory profit which is subject to review within the context of the external auditor’s review of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Cash

profit is not subject to review by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that cash profit adjustments have been

determined on a consistent basis across each period presented.

 Adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit - To calculate cash profit, the Group excludes non-core items from statutory profit. Refer to

pages 71 to 73 for adjustments between statutory and cash profit.

 Large/notable items within cash profit - The Group’s cash profit result from continuing operations includes a number of items collectively referred

to as large/notable items. While these items form part of cash profit, given their nature and significance, they have been presented separately

together with comparative information, where relevant, to provide transparency and aid comparison. Refer to pages 12 to 16 for details of

large/notable items.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The Group completed the sale of its aligned dealer groups business to IOOF Holdings Limited (now known as Insignia Financial Limited) on 1 October

2018, its life insurance business to Zurich Financial Services Australia on 31 May 2019 and its OnePath pensions and investments business to IOOF

Holdings Limited on 31 January 2020.

The financial results of these divested businesses are treated as discontinued operations from a financial reporting perspective. The financial results after

transaction completion primarily relate to residual operational costs on separation and partial recovery of certain costs based on the respective Transition

Service Agreements.

There were no material financial impacts from the discontinued operations in the current or prior comparative periods.

DIVISIONAL PERFORMANCE - CONTINUING OPERATIONS

On 1 March 2022,

the Group announced a structural change to the existing Australia Retail and Commercial division, and the digital businesses in the

Group Centre division (formerly known as the Technology, Services & Operations (TSO) and Group Centre division). This involves the integration of the

Australian retail and digital businesses, and the separation of the Australian commercial business into a new division. The new reporting segments will be

reflected in the September 2022 half to align with the implementation of the changes from 1 April 2022. The segment disclosures in this document remain

unchanged from those reported at 30 September 2021 and are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, being the

Chief Executive Officer, during the March 2022 half.

The presentation of divisional results has been impacted by the following structural changes during the period. Prior period comparatives have been

restated:

 Australia Retail and Commercial division - re-segmentation of customers from Business Banking to Small Business Banking within the division;

 Institutional division - a number of small operations were transferred from Markets to Central Functions within the division;

 the completion of the transfer of Banking Services operations from the Group Centre division to the Institutional division. As the associated costs

were previously recharged, there is no change to the previously reported divisional cash profits, however divisional balance sheets and full-time

equivalent employees (FTEs) have been restated to reflect this change.

 ANZ Worldline partnership

The Group announced in December 2020 that it had entered into a partnership with the European-based payments company Worldline AS

(Worldline). The partnership arrangement involves ANZ and Worldline forming a newly created merchant acquiring group, with ANZ and Worldline

holding 49% and 51% interests respectively. The transaction completed in the March 2022 half and the Group recognised a $307 million gain in

Other operating income and an income tax benefit of $28 million in the Australia Retail and Commercial division. The divested business results were

recognised across the Australia Retail and Commercial and Institutional divisions.

 ANZ Share Investing

During the March 2021 half, the Group recognised a $251 million loss in Other operating income on reclassifying its ANZ Share Investing business

as held for sale in the Australia Retail and Commercial division. This transaction completed during the September 2021 half with no further gain or

loss recognised.

 Financial planning and advice business

During the March 2022 half, the Group agreed to sell its financial planning and advice business servicing the affluent customer segment to Zurich

Financial Services Australia Ltd. As a result of the transaction, the Group recognised a $62 million loss largely comprising a goodwill write-off of $40

million in Other operating income, restructuring expenses of $7 million, and an income tax benefit of $9 million in the Australia Retail and Commercial

division.

 Legal entity rationalisation

During the March 2022 half, in order to simplify the Group’s legal entity structure, the business previously conducted by Minerva Holdings Limited

(Minerva) in the United Kingdom and ANZ Asia Limited (ANZ Asia) in Hong Kong were dissolved. As a result, the associated foreign currency

translation reserves were recycled from Other comprehensive income to profit or loss, resulting in a $65 million loss recognised in Other operating

income in the Group Centre division.

 Other divestments

During the March 2022 half, the Group announced the planned closure of the ANZ American Territories (ANZ American Samoa and ANZ Guam). A

cost of $18 million, comprising restructuring expenses of $12 million and a credit impairment charge of $6 million, was recognised in the Pacific

division. In addition, the Group released excess provisions originally raised as part of the UDC Finance and Paymark Limited divestments completed

in prior years and recognised a $13 million gain in Other operating income in the Group Centre division.

During the March 2021 half, the Group disposed of its rights and obligations relating to a legacy portfolio of insurance underwritten by Tower Limited

(Tower) to Tower and recognised a $13 million gain in Other operating income in the New Zealand division.

Litigation settlements

During the March 2022 half, the Group entered into an in-principle agreement to settle a United States class action related to the trading of products

based on certain benchmark reference rates and recognised expenses of $10 million after tax in relation to the proposed settlement and related costs.

The settlement is without admission of liability and remains subject to negotiation and execution of complete settlement terms as well as court approval.

During the March 2021 half, the Group reached an agreement to settle a separate United States class action related to other benchmark based products

and activities and recognised expenses of $48 million after tax. The settlement is without admission of liability and remains subject to court approval.

Restructuring

In addition to the restructuring expenses associated with business divestments/closures, the Group recognised restructuring expenses of $31 million after

tax in the March 2022 half year (Sep 21 half: $16 million; Mar 21 half: $76 million) relating to operational changes across all divisions.

Withholding tax

During the March 2022 half, a dividend payment of $714 million (net of withholding tax) was made by ANZ Papua New Guinea (ANZ PNG) to Australia

and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZBGL) in order to rebalance capital positions within the Group in response to APRA’s changes in the capital

requirements for subsidiaries. ANZBGL made a capital injection into ANZ PNG equivalent to the dividend, net of withholding tax. As a result of the

dividend payment, a dividend withholding tax expense of $126 million was recognised during the period.

Non-IFRS Information

Statutory profit is prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards, which comply with

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 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, a non-IFRS measure, represents ANZ’s preferred measure of the result of the core 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 on pages 131 to 132 for further details). The adjustments made in arriving at cash profit are included in statutory

profit which is subject to review within the context of the external auditor’s review of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Cash profit is not

subject to review by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that cash profit adjustments have been determined on a

consistent basis across each period presented.

This Group Results section is reported on a cash profit basis from continuing operations unless otherwise stated.

Markets Balance Sheet activities includes the impact of discretionary liquid assets and other Balance Sheet activities.


 March 2022 v March 2021

Net interest margin (-5 bps)

 Wholesale funding & deposit pricing (+8 bps): driven by deposit margin management across all divisions and wholesale funding costs.

 Asset pricing (-10 bps): driven by pricing competition in home lending in the Australia Retail and Commercial and New Zealand divisions.

 Asset and funding mix (-3 bps): driven by unfavourable product mix reflecting impacts of customers switching from variable to fixed rate home

loans, lower unsecured lending and lower overall growth in the Australia Retail and Commercial division. This was partially offset by favourable

deposit mix with growth in at-call deposits, and increased customer deposits relative to wholesale funding.

 Liquidity (-5 bps): driven by growth in lower yielding liquid assets.

 Earnings on capital and replicating portfolio (+1 bps): driven by growth in volumes, partially offset by a lower earnings yield.

 Markets Balance Sheet activities (+3 bps): driven by a reduction in lower margin Markets average interest earning assets.

 Large/notable items (+1 bps): driven by reduced customer remediation.

Other operating income - March 2022 Half Year v March 2021 Half Year


 March 2022 v March 2021

Other operating income increased by $411 million (+29%). Excluding large/notable items, Other operating income decreased $347 million (-18%).

Net fee and commission income (-$58 million or -6%)

 $59 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division largely driven by Breakfree package fee changes.

 $16 million decrease from lower divested business results in the Australia Retail and Commercial and Institutional divisions.

 $23 million increase driven by lower customer remediation.

Markets income (-$228 million or -22%)

Markets income decreased $228 million (-22%) driven by a $242 million decrease in Other operating income, partially offset by a $14 million increase

in Net interest income. This was primarily attributable to the following business activities:

 $179 million decrease in Balance Sheet income from lower realised gains and unfavourable mark-to-market movements attributable to

steepening yield curves.

 $107 million decrease in Credit and Capital Markets income driven by stronger Credit Trading conditions in the March 2021 half.

 $22 million decrease from Derivative Valuation Adjustments from higher mark-to-market credit valuation adjustments.

 $53 million increase in Rates income driven by more favourable trading conditions in a rising interest-rate environment.

 $17 million increase in Foreign Exchange income driven by customer demand for hedging solutions with increased volatility and interest rate

differentials across currencies, partially offset by the release of customer remediation provisions in the March 2021 half.

 $10 million increase in Commodities income driven by increased demand for hedging solutions and more favourable trading conditions.

Share of associates’ profit/(loss) (+$316 million)

 $347 million increase driven by the Group’s share of charges recognised by AmBank in the March 2021 half in respect of the 1MDB settlement

($212 million) and goodwill impairment ($135 million).

 $31 million decrease in share of associates’ profits from PT Panin ($41 million), partially offset by an increase from AmBank ($10 million).

Other (+$395 million)

 $431 million increase driven by divestments/closures:

- $496 million increase in the Australia Retail and Commercial division from the gain on sale on completion of the ANZ Worldline partnership

($307 million) and the loss on reclassification of ANZ Share Investing to held for sale ($251 million) in the March 2021 half, partially offset by

loss on sale of the financial planning and advice business ($62 million).

- $52 million decrease in the Group Centre division driven by the recycling of foreign currency translation reserves from Other comprehensive

income to profit or loss on dissolution of Minerva and ANZ Asia ($65 million), partially offset by the release of excess provisions originally

raised as part of the UDC Finance and Paymark Limited divestments completed in the prior years ($13 million).

- $13 million decrease in the New Zealand division from the gain on sale of a legacy insurance portfolio to Tower in the March 2021 half.

 $29 million increase in the New Zealand division driven by realised gains from the sale of government securities.

 $18 million increase in the Institutional division driven by higher international payment volumes in Transaction Banking and favourable

adjustments to loans measured at fair value in Corporate Finance.

 $76 million decrease in the Group Centre division primarily driven by lower realised gains on economic hedges against foreign currency

denominated revenue streams offsetting net favourable foreign currency translations elsewhere in the Group and lower valuation adjustments

from investments measured at fair value in the digital business.

 $11 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division driven by a gain on disposal of the offsite ATM network in the March 2021

half.

Net fee and commission income (-$99 million or -9%)

 $113 million decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division driven by Breakfree package fee changes, the timing of recognition of

cards incentives and seasonality of fees.

 $15 million decrease in the New Zealand division driven by the removal or reduction of funds under management fees.

 $30 million increase driven by lower customer remediation.

Markets income (-$119 million or -13%)

Markets income decreased $119 million (-13%) driven by a $96 million (-20%) decrease in Other operating income and a $23 million (-5%) decrease

in Net interest income. This was primarily attributable to the following business activities:

 $222 million decrease in Balance Sheet income with lower realised gains following portfolio rebalancing in the prior half, and lower interest

income.

 $29 million decrease in Credit and Capital Markets income driven by lower fee revenues from reduced customer issuance volumes and valuation

impacts from widening credit spreads.

 $8 million decrease from Derivative Valuation Adjustments from higher mark-to-market credit valuation adjustments.

 $62 million increase in Foreign Exchange income driven by customer demand for hedging solutions with increased volatility and interest rate

differentials across currencies.

 $57 million increase in Rates income driven by more favourable trading conditions in a rising interest-rate environment.

 $21 million increase in Commodities income driven by increased demand for hedging solutions and more favourable trading conditions.

- $52 million decrease in the Group Centre division driven by the recycling of foreign currency translation reserves from Other comprehensive

income to profit or loss on dissolution of Minerva and ANZ Asia ($65 million) partially offset by the release of excess provisions originally

raised as part of the UDC Finance and Paymark Limited divestments completed in the prior years ($13 million).

 $29 million increase in the New Zealand division driven by realised gains from the sale of government securities.

 $15 million increase in the Institutional division driven by higher international payment volumes in Transaction Banking and favourable

adjustments to loans measured at fair value in Corporate Finance.

 $50 million decrease in the Group Centre division primarily driven by lower realised gains on economic hedges against foreign currency

 March 2022 v March 2021

Operating expenses increased by $309 million (+7%). Excluding large/notable items, operating expenses increased $368 million (+9%).

 Personnel expenses increased $205 million (+8%) driven by higher resourcing during the period to support investments to meet regulatory and

compliance obligations and to develop digital capabilities, as well as Home Loan processing. Wage inflation and the impact of unfavourable

foreign currency translation movements also contributed to the overall increase. This was partially offset by the benefits of customers continuing

to embrace digital channels and productivity improvements arising from technology and back-office optimisation.

 Premises expenses decreased $9 million (-3%) driven by ongoing optimisation of property footprint and the sale of the offsite ATM network.

 Technology expenses increased $30 million (+4%) driven by higher software license costs and increased spend on investment initiatives,

partially offset by lower amortisation charges.

 Restructuring expenses decreased $56 million (-53%) with lower charges across all divisions.

 Other expenses increased $139 million (+18%) driven by increased spend on investment initiatives and higher customer remediation. This was

partially offset by expenses relating to a litigation settlement agreed in the March 2021 half.

 March 2022 v September 2021

Operating expenses increased by $222 million (+5%). Excluding large/notable items, operating expenses increased $132 million (+3%).

 Personnel expenses increased $157 million (+6%) resulting from higher resourcing during the period to support investments to meet regulatory

foreign currency translation movements also contributed to the overall increase. This was partially offset by the benefits of customers continuing

to embrace digital channels and productivity improvements arising from technology and back-office optimisation.

 Premises expenses decreased $14 million (-4%) driven by ongoing optimisation of property footprint and the sale of the offsite ATM network.

 Technology expenses increased $12 million (+1%) driven by higher software licence costs, partially offset by lower amortisation charges.

 Restructuring expenses increased $27 million driven by the planned closure of ANZ American Territories and retrenchment costs relating to the

business changes in the Australia Retail and Commercial division.

 Other expenses increased $40 million (+4%) driven by higher customer remediation partially offset by seasonally lower marketing spend.

Collectively assessed credit impairment charge/(release)

 March 2022 v March 2021

The collectively assessed credit impairment release decreased $307 million (-45%) driven by lower releases across the Australia Retail and

Commercial ($192 million), Institutional ($83 million) and New Zealand ($36 million) divisions. Collectively assessed credit impairment provision

decreased substantially in the March 2021 half primarily due to improvements in the economic outlook and improvements in portfolio mix. The

collectively assessed credit impairment release in the March 2022 half was primarily driven by underlying improvement in risk profile, portfolio mix

and the reduction in COVID-19 specific management overlays, partially offset by changes in economic scenario weights and new management

overlays for floods.

 March 2022 v September 2021

The collectively assessed credit impairment release increased $226 million driven a higher release in the Australia Retail and Commercial division

($217 million). Collectively assessed credit impairment provisions decreased in the September 2021 half as a result of underlying changes in portfolio

risk combined with a relatively stable view of forward-looking economic outlook. The collectively assessed credit impairment release in the March

2022 half was primarily driven by underlying improvement in risk profile, portfolio mix and the reduction in COVID-19 specific management overlays,

partially offset by changes in economic scenario weights and new management overlays for floods.

Individually assessed credit impairment charge/(release)

 March 2022 v March 2021

The individually assessed credit impairment charge decreased $100 million (-53%) driven by decreases across the Australia Retail and Commercial

division (-$46 million) with underlying delinquency and impairment flows remaining subdued post government and bank COVID-19 support packages,

and the Institutional division (-$63 million) due to higher impairments taken in the March 2021 half.

 March 2022 v September 2021

The individually assessed credit impairment charge increased by $18 million (26%) driven by increases across the Australia Retail and Commercial

division ($27 million) with lower write-backs in the Home Loans, Business Banking and Small Business Banking portfolios, and the New Zealand

division ($6 million) substantially driven by a single name exposure. This was partially offset by a decrease in the Institutional division (-$23 million)

with lower transition to impairment over the period.

Long-Run Loss Rates

Management believes that disclosure of modelled long-run historical loss rates for individually assessed provisions assists in assessing the longer term

expected loss rates of the lending portfolio by removing the volatility of reported earnings created by the use of accounting losses. The long-run loss

methodology used for economic profit is an internal measure and is not based on the credit loss recognition principles of AASB 9 Financial Instruments.

Impaired loans and non-performing commitments, contingencies and derivatives do not include exposures that are collectively assessed for Stage 3 ECL, which comprise unsecured retail

exposures of 90+ days past due and defaulted but well secured exposures.

2.

Restructured items are facilities where the original contractual terms have been modified for reasons related to the financial difficulties of the customer and are collectively assessed for

Stage 3 ECL. 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.

3.

Non-performing credit exposures are aligned with the definition in APS220 Credit Risk Management.

 March 2022 v March 2021

Gross impaired assets decreased $764 million (-31%) driven by decreases across the Australia Retail and Commercial division (-$371 million) with

underlying delinquency flows remaining subdued due to government and bank COVID-19 support packages, the Institutional division (-$251 million)

driven by the upgrade and repayments of several single name exposures, and the New Zealand division (-$155 million) with the upgrade of a large

Agribusiness customer and a number of Agribusiness asset sales in the September 2021 half.

 March 2022 v September 2021

Gross impaired assets decreased $256 million (-13%) driven by decreases across the Australia Retail and Commercial division (-$184 million) with

underlying delinquency flows remaining subdued post government and bank COVID-19 support packages, and the Institutional division (-$63 million)

due to the repayments of several single name exposures.

The Group’s individually assessed provision coverage ratio on impaired assets was 37.2% at 31 March 2022 (Sep 21: 35.0%; Mar 21: 32.7%).

 March 2022 v March 2021

New impaired assets decreased $482 million (-43%) driven by the Institutional division (-$465 million) by a small number of well secured single name

exposures taken in March 2021 half, and the Australia Retail and Commercial division (-$28 million) with underlying delinquency flows remaining

subdued post government and bank COVID-19 support packages. This was partially offset by an increase in the New Zealand division ($30 million)

driven by the impairment of a single name exposure.

 March 2022 v September 2021

New impaired assets increased by $28 million (5%) driven by the Institutional division ($75 million) with the impairment of a small number of well

secured single name exposures, and the New Zealand division ($24 million) driven by the impairment of a single name exposure. This was partially

offset by a decrease in the Australia Retail and Commercial division (-$68 million) with underlying delinquency flows remaining subdued post

government and bank COVID-19 support packages.

 March 2022 v March 2021

The effective tax rate decreased from 32.5% to 29.9%. The decrease of 262 bps was driven by the net non-tax assessable gain from

divestments/closures in the March 2022 half (-186 bps), the non-tax deductible impacts of the reclassification of ANZ Share Investing to held for sale

in the March 2021 half (-169 bps) and lower equity accounted earnings (-212 bps). This was partially offset by higher withholding tax expense mainly

due to the dividend payment from ANZ Papua New Guinea (+254 bps).

 March 2022 v September 2021

The effective tax rate increased from 29.2% to 29.9%. The increase of 72 bps was driven by higher withholding tax expense mainly due to the

As at 31 March 2022, the following hedges were in place to partially hedge future earnings against adverse movements in exchange rates:

 NZD 2.8 billion at a forward rate of approximately NZD 1.07/AUD.

 USD 0.4 billion at a forward rate of approximately USD 0.75/AUD.

During the March 2022 half:

 NZD 1.1 billion of economic hedges matured and a realised gain of $7 million (pre-tax) was recorded in cash profit.

 USD 0.2 billion of economic hedges matured and a realised gain of $6 million (pre-tax) was recorded in cash profit.

 An unrealised gain of $71 million (pre-tax) on the outstanding NZD and USD economic hedges was recorded in the statutory profit during the half.

This unrealised gain has been treated as an adjustment to statutory profit in calculating cash profit as these are hedges of future NZD and USD

revenues.

Economic profit is a risk adjusted profit measure used to evaluate business unit performance. This is used for internal management purposes and is not

subject to review by the external auditor.

At a business unit level, capital is allocated based on Regulatory 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 level of risk. Key risks covered include credit risk,

operational risk, market risk and other risks.

Economic profit is calculated via a series of adjustments to cash profit:

 The economic credit cost adjustment replaces the accounting credit loss charge with internal expected loss based on the average long-run loss rate

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 an ANZ Group level, this is calculated using average ordinary shareholders’ equity

(excluding non-controlling interests), multiplied by the cost of capital rate (currently at 7.75% with comparative periods restated accordingly).

Economic profit increased by $183 million (+72%) against the March 2021 half driven by higher cash profit and favourable economic credit cost

adjustment, partially offset by lower imputation credits and higher cost of capital.

Economic profit decreased by $332 million (-43%) against the September 2021 half year driven by lower cash profit, unfavourable economic credit cost

adjustment and lower imputation credits, partially offset by lower cost of capital.

 March 2022 v March 2021

 Cash / Settlement balances owed to ANZ / Collateral paid increased $39.7 billion (+27%) driven by increases in balances with central banks and

reverse repurchase agreements, partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

 Trading and investment securities decreased $19.1 billion (-14%) primarily driven by lower liquid assets in Markets due to portfolio rebalancing

activities in the September 2021 half.

 Derivative financial assets and liabilities decreased $59.5 billion (-57%) and $55.1 billion (-54%) respectively driven by a reduction following a

change made in the September 2021 half in legal arrangements for the settlement of derivative transactions with a central clearing counterparty

(reduction of $55.1 billion in derivative assets and $55.2 billion in derivative liabilities at the date of the change).

 Net loans and advances increased $37.0 billion (+6%) driven by higher lending volumes in the Institutional division (+$27.0 billion), an increase

in the New Zealand division (+$7.6 billion) reflecting home loan growth, an increase in long-dated reverse repurchase agreements (+$2.6 billion)

in Group Treasury and the impact of foreign currency translation movements. This was partially offset by a decrease in the Australia Retail and

Commercial division (-$2.1 billion) driven by home loan contraction.

 Deposits and other borrowings increased $73.7 billion (+10%) driven by increases in customer deposits across the Australia Retail and

Commercial (+$22.1 billion), Institutional (+$19.2 billion) and New Zealand (+$5.7 billion) divisions, increases in deposits from banks and

repurchase agreements (+$11.4 billion), drawdowns of the RBA Term Funding Facility (TFF) and the RBNZ’s Funding for Lending Programme

(FLP) and Term Lending Facility (TLF) (+9.8 billion) and commercial paper (+$5.7 billion), and the impact of foreign currency translation

movements. This was partially offset by decreases in certificates of deposit (-$3.1 billion).

 Debt issuances decreased $20.4 billion (-19%) driven by the redemption of ANZ CN1 and ANZ CN2. This was partially offset by the issuance of

ANZ CN6 and ANZ CN7 and the drawdown of the TFF, classified in Deposits and other borrowings.

 March 2022 v September 2021

 Cash / Settlement balances owed to ANZ / Collateral paid increased $18.0 billion (+11%) driven by increases in balances with central banks and

overnight inter-bank deposits, partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation movements.

 Trading and investment securities decreased $8.6 billion (-7%) primarily driven by lower liquid assets in Markets and the impact of foreign

currency translation movements.

 Derivative financial assets and liabilities increased $6.5 billion (+17%) and $11.8 billion (+33%) driven by the impact of market rate movements.

 Net loans and advances increased $21.7 billion (+3%) driven by higher lending volumes in the Institutional division (+$19.6 billion), an increase

in the New Zealand division (+$4.6 billion) reflecting home loan growth, an increase in long-dated reverse repurchase agreements (+$3.0 billion)

in Group Treasury, and loan growth in the Australia Retail and Commercial division (+0.9 billion), partially offset by the impact of foreign currency

translation movements.

 Deposits and other borrowings increased $37.2 billion (+5%) driven by increases in customer deposits across the Australia Retail and

Commercial (+$10.9 billion), Institutional (+$10.5 billion) and New Zealand (+$5.0 billion) divisions, increases in deposits from banks and

repurchase agreements (+$15.9 billion) and commercial paper (+$6.3 billion), partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation

movements.

 Debt issuances decreased $13.9 billion (-14%) driven by the redemption of ANZ CN2 partially replaced by the issuance of ANZ CN7 and the

drawdown of the TFF, classified in Deposits and other borrowings.

Liquidity Risk - including discontinued operations

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 globally, including APRA. As part of meeting LCR requirements, ANZ has a Committed Liquidity Facility (CLF) with the Reserve Bank of

Australia (RBA). The CLF was established to offset the shortage of available High Quality Liquid Assets (HQLA) in Australia and provides an

alternative form of contingent liquidity. The CLF is collateralised by assets, including internal residential mortgage backed securities, that are eligible

to be pledged as security with the RBA. The total amount of the CLF available to a qualifying Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) is set

annually by APRA. In September 2021, APRA wrote to ADIs to advise that APRA and the RBA consider there to be sufficient HQLA for ADIs to meet

their LCR requirements, and therefore the use of the CLF should no longer be required beyond 2022.

From 1 January 2022, ANZ’s CLF is $8.0 billion (2021 calendar year end: $10.7 billion). Consistent with APRA’s requirement, ANZ’s CLF will reduce

by $2.7 billion on 1 May 2022, 1 September 2022 and 1 January 2023. This reduction will be managed as part of ANZ’s funding plans over this

period.

 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 RBNZ.

In March 2020, in response to the economic impact of COVID-19, the RBA established a Term Funding Facility (TFF). Under the TFF, the RBA has

offered three-year funding to ADIs secured by RBA eligible collateral. ADIs can include the undrawn but available TFF as a liquid asset for the LCR,

representing a committed central bank facility that can be drawn at the ADI’s discretion. As at 1 July 2021, ANZ’s available TFF has been fully drawn.

Prior to the drawdown, the undrawn but available TFF was represented below by the assets that are eligible to be pledged as security with the RBA.

In November 2020, in response to the economic impact of COVID-19, the RBNZ implemented a Funding for Lending Programme (FLP). Under the

FLP the RBNZ offered three-year funding to eligible counterparties secured by approved eligible collateral. APRA has advised that the undrawn but

available FLP can be included as a cash inflow for the LCR, which reduces net cash outflows. As the Level 2 LCR excludes liquid assets held above

the NZ dollar LCR of 100%, the impact of the undrawn but available FLP reduces net cash outflows and Level 2 liquid assets by the same amount.

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.

 March 2022 v September 2021

ANZ’s CET1 ratio decreased -81 bps to 11.53% during the March 2022 half. Key drivers of the movement in the CET1 ratio were:

 Cash profit excluding large/notable items increased the CET1 ratio by +76 bps.

 Higher underlying CRWA usage (excluding foreign currency translation movements, regulatory changes and other one-offs) decreased the CET1

ratio by -33 bps primarily driven by lending growth in the Institutional division.

 Higher underlying non-CRWA usage (excluding foreign currency translation movements) decreased the CET1 ratio by -42 bps primarily from

increases in Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) RWA due to increases in embedded losses.

 Capital deductions of -2 bps mainly from equity accounted increase from share in associates.

 Payment of the 2021 Final Dividend (net of BOP issuance, DRP neutralised) reduced the CET1 ratio by -48 bps.

 Completion of $791 million of the announced $1.5 billion share buy-back reduced the CET1 ratio by -19 bps.

 Other impacts totalling -13 bps primarily reflecting movements in net deferred tax assets (-13 bps), merger and acquisition transactions (+5 bps)

and net RWA imposts (-3 bps).

APRA to Internationally Comparable

1

Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) as at 31 March 2022


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 a 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 - APRA requires a full deduction from CET1 for DTA relating to temporary differences. On an Internationally Comparable basis,

this is first subject to a concessional threshold before the deduction is required.

Risk Weighted Assets (RWA)

 Mortgages RWA - APRA imposes a floor of 20% on the downturn Loss Given Default (LGD) used in credit RWA calculations for residential

mortgages. The Internationally Comparable Basel 3 framework requires a downturn LGD floor of 10%. Additionally, APRA requires a higher

correlation factor than the Basel framework.

 IRRBB RWA - APRA requires inclusion of IRRBB within the RWA base for the CET1 ratio calculation. This is not required on an Internationally

Comparable basis.

 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 - an 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) - an adjustment to 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 - including discontinued operations

At 31 March 2022, the Group’s APRA Leverage Ratio was 5.2% which is above the 3.5% APRA minimum for internal ratings-based approach ADIs (IRB

ADIs) which includes ANZ. The following table summarises the Group’s Leverage Ratio calculation:

 March 2022 v September 2021

APRA leverage ratio decreased -28 bps during the March 2022 half. Key drivers of the movement were:

 Net organic capital generation (largely from cash profit excluding large/notable items and movements in capital deductions), less dividends paid

(+12 bps).

 Net decrease from CN2 and ANZ New Zealand CN redemptions partially offset by AT1 issuance of CN7 (-7 bps).

 Growth in exposures (excluding the impacts of foreign exchange) predominantly from on-balance sheet exposures reduced the leverage ratio by

-22 bps. The on-balance sheet exposure growth was mainly in liquid assets and lending growth within the Institutional division.

 Share buy-backs reduced leverage ratio by -7 bps.

 Net other impacts (including large/notable items) of -4 bps.

Capital Management - Other Developments

 Capital Requirements - Unquestionably Strong

APRA’s key initiatives in relation to Unquestionably Strong capital requirements are as follows:

 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’ as originally outlined in the Financial System Inquiry final report in December 2014. APRA indicated that ‘in

the case of the four major Australian banks, this equated to a benchmark CET1 capital ratio, under the current capital adequacy framework, of at

least 10.5 percent from 1 January 2020’.

 In November 2021, APRA released their final requirements in relation to capital adequacy and credit risk capital requirements for ADIs with an

implementation date of 1 January 2023. The key aspects of APRA’s final requirements are:

- Increased alignment with internationally agreed Basel standards for non-residential mortgages exposures;

- Implementing more risk-sensitive risk weights for residential mortgage lending;

- Introduction of the Basel II capital floor that limits the RWA outcome for IRB ADIs to no less than 72.5% of the RWA outcome under the

standardised approach;

- Improving the flexibility of the capital framework through the introduction of a default level of the countercyclical capital buffer and increasing

the capital conservation buffer for IRB ADIs;

- Improving the transparency and comparability of ADIs’ capital ratios, including by requiring IRB ADIs to also publish their capital ratios under

the standardised approach; and

- Implementing a Minimum Leverage Ratio for IRB ADIs at 3.5%.

APRA has indicated in their proposals a decrease in RWA, but this would be offset by the increased capital allocation to regulatory buffers. APRA

has also indicated that since ADIs are currently meeting the ‘unquestionably strong’ benchmarks, it is not APRA’s intention to require ADIs to raise

additional capital. Accordingly, APRA is expected to calibrate the capital requirements for ADIs, measured in dollar terms, to be consistent at an

industry level with the existing ‘unquestionably strong’ capital benchmarks for ADIs under the current capital framework. The impact of these

proposed changes on individual ADIs (including ANZBGL), will vary depending on the final form of requirements implemented by APRA.

Additionally, APRA is currently still consulting on revisions to a number of prudential standards, being Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book

(IRRBB), Market Risk and Counterparty Credit Risk. Given the number of items that are yet to be finalised by APRA, the aggregate final outcome

from all changes to APRA's prudential standards relating to their review of ADIs ‘unquestionably strong’ capital framework remains uncertain.

 APRA Total Loss Absorbing Capacity Requirements

In July 2019, APRA announced its decision on loss-absorbing capacity requiring Australian domestic systematically important banks (D-SIBs),

including ANZBGL, to increase their total capital by 3% of RWA by January 2024. On 2 December 2021, APRA announced that it has finalised its

loss-absorbing capacity requirements and stated that it will require Australian D-SIBs to increase their total capital by a further 1.5% of RWA by

January 2026. Inclusive of the previously announced interim increase of 3%, this will result in a total increase to the minimum total capital

requirement of 4.5% of RWA. APRA expects the requirement to be satisfied predominantly with additional Tier 2 capital with an equivalent decrease

in other senior funding. The amount of the additional total capital requirement will be based on the Group’s actual RWA as at January 2026, including

the final impact of the revisions to APRA’s capital framework announced on 29 November 2021. APRA noted ‘Given changes to RWA from the ADI

capital reforms, the lower end of the range in dollar terms broadly equates to a requirement of 4.5 percentage points of RWA under the new capital

framework, in place from 2023’.

 The Reserve Bank of New Zealand review of capital requirements

The RBNZ’s new capital adequacy requirements for New Zealand banks, which are set out in the Banking Prudential Requirements (BPR)

documents are being implemented in stages during a transition period from October 2021 to July 2028. The key requirements for ANZ Bank New

Zealand Limited (ANZ New Zealand) are as follows:

 ANZ New Zealand’s Tier 1 capital requirement will increase to 16% of RWA, of which up to 2.5% could be in the form of Additional Tier 1 (AT1)

Capital. ANZ New Zealand’s Total Capital requirement will increase to 18% of RWA, of which up to 2% can be Tier 2 Capital.

 AT1 capital must consist of perpetual preference shares, which may be redeemable. It is anticipated that ANZ New Zealand will be able to

refinance existing internal AT1 securities to external counterparties. Tier 2 capital must consist of long-term subordinated debt.

As an IRB approach accredited bank, ANZ New Zealand’s RWA outcomes will be increased to approximately 90% of what would be calculated under

the Basel Standardised Measurement Approach (standardised approach). This will be achieved by applying an 85% output floor for CRWA and

increasing the CRWA scalar from 1.06 to 1.20. The net impact on the Group is an increase in CET1 capital of approximately $1 to $1.5 billion

between 31 March 2022 and the end of the transition period in 2028 (based on the Group’s 31 March 2022 balance sheet). This amount could vary

over time subject to changes to the capital position in ANZ New Zealand (e.g. from RWA growth, management buffer requirements, and potential

dividend payments).

On 1 March 2022, the Group announced a structural change to the existing Australia Retail and Commercial division, and the digital businesses in the

Group Centre division (formerly known as the Technology, Services & Operations (TSO) and Group Centre division). This involves the integration of the

Australian retail and digital businesses, and the separation of the Australian commercial business into a new division. The new reporting segments will be

reflected in the September 2022 half to align with the implementation of the changes from 1 April 2022. The segment disclosures below remain

unchanged from those reported at 30 September 2021 and are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, being the

Chief Executive Officer, during the March 2022 half.

During the March 2022 half, the Group operated on a divisional structure with five continuing divisions: Australia Retail and Commercial, Institutional,

New Zealand, Pacific, and Group Centre. For further information on the composition of divisions, refer to the Definitions on page 133.

The presentation of divisional results has been impacted by the following structural changes during the period. Prior period comparatives have been

restated:

 Australia Retail and Commercial division - re-segmentation of customers from Business Banking to Small Business Banking within the division;

 Institutional division - a number of small operations were transferred from Markets to Central Functions within the division;

 the completion of the transfer of Banking Services operations from the Group Centre division to the Institutional division. As the associated costs

were previously recharged, there is no change to the previously reported divisional cash profits, however divisional balance sheets and full-time

equivalent employees (FTEs) have been restated to reflect this change.

The Divisional Results section is reported on a cash profit basis for continuing operations. For information on discontinued operations please

refer to the Guide to Half Year Results on page 8.

Credit impairment charge/(release) used in the ratio relates to gross loans and advances and off-balance sheet commitments - undrawn and contingent liabilities.


Cash Profit March 2022 v March 2021

Performance March 2022 v March 2021

Lending volumes decreased driven by home loan contraction and lower

unsecured lending, partially offset by an increase in commercial lending.

 Net interest margin decreased driven by unfavourable lending mix from

stronger growth in lower margin fixed rate home loans, continued

competitive pressures and deposit margin compression. This was partially

offset by further deposit repricing benefits, stronger deposit volume growth

and favourable deposit mix.

 Other operating income increased driven by the gain on sale relating to the

ANZ Worldline partnership and the loss on reclassification of ANZ Share

Investing to held for sale in the March 2021 half. This was partially offset by

Breakfree package fee changes and the loss on sale of the financial

planning and advice business.

 Operating expenses increased driven by higher investment spend and

higher customer remediation, partially offset by productivity benefits and

lower restructuring expenses.

 Credit impairment release decreased driven by a lower collectively

assessed credit impairment release, partially offset by lower individually

assessed credit impairment charge with underlying delinquency and

impairment flows remaining subdued post government and bank COVID-19

support packages.

Cash Profit March 2022 v March 2021

Performance March 2022 v March 2021

Lending volumes increased across Corporate Finance, Markets and

Transaction Banking following strong core lending and customer flows during

the period. Customer deposits increased predominantly in Transaction

Banking.

 Net interest margin ex-Markets decreased primarily driven by deposit margin

compression.

 Other operating income decreased driven by Markets reflecting volatile

interest rate movements and valuation adjustments during the period.

 Operating expenses decreased driven by lower litigation settlements,

restructuring expenses and divested business results, partially offset by

higher investment spend.

 Credit impairment release decreased driven by a lower collectively assessed

credit impairment release, partially offset by lower individually assessed

credit impairment charges driven by higher impairments taken in the March

2021 half.

 Income tax expense increased driven by the dividend withholding tax on the

dividend payment from ANZ PNG to ANZBGL.

Cash Profit March 2022 v March 2021

Performance March 2022 v March 2021

Lending volumes increased driven by home loan growth.

 Net interest margin increased driven by favourable deposit mix, lower

funding costs and deposit repricing, partially offset by lower home loan

margins due to competition, and a higher mix of fixed rate home loans.

 Other operating income increased driven by gains on sale of government

securities, partially offset by lower fees from the removal or reduction of

funds under management fees, and a gain on sale of New Zealand legacy

insurance portfolio in the March 2021 half.

 Operating expenses increased driven by higher investment spend, and

FTE increases, partially offset by lower discretionary spend and productivity

gains.

 Credit impairment releases decreased driven by a lower collectively

assessed credit impairment release.

Non-IFRS information

Statutory profit is prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of Australian Accounting Standards, which comply with

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 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 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 core 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 on pages 131 to 132 for further details). The adjustments made in arriving at cash profit are included in statutory profit which is

subject to review within the context of the external auditor’s review of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Cash profit is not subject to

review by the external auditor. The external auditor has informed the Audit Committee that cash profit adjustments have been determined on a consistent

basis across each period presented.

Explanation of adjustments between statutory profit and cash profit - continuing operations

 Economic 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 in the Income Statement. 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, as well as ineffectiveness from designated

accounting hedges.

Economic hedges comprise:


 Derivatives (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 that do not qualify for hedge accounting. The main drivers of these fair value movements are

currency basis spreads and 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 arising from differences in certain factors between the hedged items and the hedging instruments.

The Group removes the fair value adjustments from cash profit since the profit or loss will reverse over time to match with the profit or loss from the

underlying hedged item.

In the March 2022 half, the majority of the gain on economic hedges relates to funding related swaps, principally from widening AUD/USD and

NZD/USD currency basis spreads and interest rate movements, and the impact of rising yield curves on the economic hedges of select structured

finance and specialised leasing transactions.

 Revenue and expense hedges

The Group enters into economic hedges to manage hedges of larger foreign exchange denominated revenue and expense streams, primarily NZD

and USD (and USD correlated). The gain on revenue and expense hedges in the March 2022 half was mainly due to the appreciation of AUD against

the NZD.

iv) Accounting policies

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 2021 ANZ Annual Report.

Discontinued operations are separately presented from the results of the continuing operations as a single line item ‘Profit/(Loss) after tax from

discontinued operations’ in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement have been

presented on a continuing basis.

v) 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 the 2021 ANZ Annual Financial Report. Such estimates and judgements are reviewed on

an ongoing basis.

Whilst the course of the COVID-19 pandemic is moderating and its impact on economic activity and our customers is better understood, the responses of

consumers, business and governments remain uncertain. New external risks are also emerging, including mounting geopolitical tensions, global supply

chain disruptions, the conflict in Ukraine, and commodity price pressures. Thus there remains an elevated level of estimation uncertainty involved in the

preparation of these financial statements.

The Group has made various accounting estimates in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements based on forecasts of economic conditions

which reflect expectations and assumptions at 31 March 2022 about future events considered reasonable in the circumstances. There is a considerable

degree of judgement involved in preparing these estimates. Actual economic conditions are likely to be different from those forecast since anticipated

events frequently do not occur as expected, and the effect of these differences may significantly impact accounting estimates included in these financial

statements. The significant accounting estimates impacted by these forecasts and associated uncertainties are predominantly related to expected credit

losses and recoverable amounts of non-financial assets.

The impact of these uncertainties on each of these accounting estimates is discussed further below and/or in the relevant notes in the 2021 ANZ Annual

Report. Readers should consider these disclosures in light of the inherent uncertainties described above.

Allowance for expected credit losses

The Group measures the allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) using an expected credit loss impairment model as required by AASB 9 Financial

Instruments.

COVID-19 risks are moderating however the economy continues to transition to a setting with less government stimulus and some uncertainty as to how

customers will respond to expected interest rate rises and inflationary pressure, heightened geopolitical tensions across the globe, the conflict in Ukraine

and global supply chain issues, commodity price pressures, and how governments, businesses and consumers respond also remains uncertain. This

uncertainty is reflected in the Group’s assessment of expected credit losses, which are subject to a number of management judgements and estimates.

The Group’s allowance for expected credit losses is included in the table below (refer to Note 10 for further information).

Includes allowance for expected credit losses for Net loans and advances - at amortised cost, Investment securities - debt securities at amortised cost and Off-balance sheet commitments -

undrawn and contingent facilities.

Individually assessed allowance for expected credit losses

During the March 2022 half, the individually assessed allowance for expected credit losses decreased by $51 million.

In estimating individually assessed ECL, the Group makes judgements and assumptions in relation to expected repayments, the realisable value of

collateral, business prospects for the customer, competing claims and the likely cost and duration of the work-out process. Judgements and assumptions

in respect of these matters have been updated to reflect amongst other things, the continuing uncertainties described above.

Collectively assessed allowance for expected credit losses

During the March 2022 half, the collectively assessed allowance for expected credit losses decreased by $438 million attributable to: reductions of

$172 million from improvements in credit risk, $98 million from changes in portfolio composition, $138 million in lower management adjustments, and

$67 million from foreign currency translation and other impacts; offset by an increase of $37 million for downside risks associated with the economic

outlook.

In estimating collectively assessed ECL, the Group makes judgements and assumptions in relation to:

 the selection of an estimation technique or modelling methodology; and

 the selection of inputs for those models, and the interdependencies between those inputs.

The following table summarises the key judgements and assumptions in relation to the model inputs and the interdependencies between those inputs,

and highlights significant changes during the current period.

The judgements and associated assumptions have been made in the context of the uncertainty of how various factors might impact the global economy,

and reflect historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant, including expectations of future events that are believed to be

reasonable under the circumstances. The Group’s ECL estimates are inherently uncertain and, as a result, actual results may differ from these estimates.


Judgement/Assumption Description Considerations for the half year ended 31 March 2022

Determining when a

significant increase in

credit risk (SICR) has

occurred

In the measurement of ECL, judgement is involved in setting the

rules and trigger points to determine whether there has been a

SICR since initial recognition of a loan, which would result in the

financial asset moving from Stage 1 to Stage 2. This is a key

area of judgement since transition from Stage 1 to Stage 2

increases the ECL from an allowance based on the probability

of default in the next 12 months, to an allowance for lifetime

expected credit losses. Subsequent decreases in credit risk

resulting in transition from Stage 2 to Stage 1 may similarly

result in significant changes in the ECL allowance.

The setting of precise trigger points requires judgement which

may have a material impact upon the size of the ECL

allowance. The Group monitors the effectiveness of SICR

criteria on an ongoing basis.

The Group released a portion of ECL originally provided for

expected delinquencies that may have not flowed through due

to COVID-19 support measures. Although these measures

have ceased, uncertainty remains on their ongoing impact on

portfolio delinquency.

1. Basis of preparation, cont’d

Judgement/Assumption Description Considerations for the half year ended 31 March 2022

Measuring both 12-month

and lifetime credit losses

The probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and

exposure at default (EAD) credit risk parameters used in

determining ECL are point-in-time measures reflecting the

relevant forward-looking information determined by

management. Judgement is involved in determining which

forward-looking information variables are relevant for particular

lending portfolios and for determining each portfolio’s point-in-

time sensitivity.

The PD, LGD and EAD models are subject to the Group’s model

risk policy that stipulates periodic model monitoring and re-

validation, and defines approval procedures and authorities

according to model materiality.

The modelled outcome includes an amount to recognise

increased model uncertainties as a result of COVID-19.

In addition, judgement is required where behavioural

characteristics are applied in estimating the lifetime of a facility

to be used in measuring ECL.

There were no material changes to the policies during the half

year ended 31 March 2022.

Base case economic

forecast

The Group derives a forward-looking ‘base case’ economic

scenario which reflects ANZ Research - Economics’ (ANZ

Economics) view of future macro-economic conditions.

There have been no changes to the types of forward-looking

variables (key economic drivers) used as model inputs in the

current period.

As at 31 March 2022, the base case assumptions have been

updated to reflect the economic impacts of the Omicron variant,

supply chain pressures, and increasing inflation and expected

interest rate rises globally. In determining the expected path of

the economy, assessments of the impact of central bank

policies, government actions, and the response of businesses

and consumers were considered.

The expected outcomes of key economic drivers for the base

case scenario at 31 March 2022 are described below under the

heading ‘Base case economic forecast assumptions’.

Probability weighting of

each economic scenario

(base case, upside,

downside and severe

downside scenarios)

1,2


Probability weighting of each economic scenario is determined

by management considering the risks and uncertainties

surrounding the base case economic scenario at each

measurement date.

The key considerations for probability weightings in the current

period include the ongoing but increasingly known impacts of

COVID-19, uncertainty as to how customers will respond to

expected interest rate rises and inflationary pressures, the

conflict in Ukraine, commodity price pressures and global supply

chain issues.

Weightings for current and prior periods are as detailed in the

section on ‘Probability weightings’ below.

The assigned probability weightings in Australia, New Zealand

and Rest of world are subject to a high degree of inherent

uncertainty and therefore the actual outcomes may be

significantly different to those projected.

1.

The upside and downside scenarios are fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions (that is, they are not based on the economic conditions prevailing at balance date) and are

based on a combination of more optimistic (in the case of the upside) and pessimistic (in the case of the downside) economic conditions.

2.

The severe downside scenario is fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions and accounts for the potentially severe downside impact of less likely extremely adverse

economic conditions.

Judgement/Assumption Description Considerations for the half year ended 31 March 2022

Management temporary

adjustments

Management temporary adjustments to the ECL allowance are

used in circumstances where it is judged that our existing

inputs, assumptions and model techniques do not capture all

the risk factors relevant to our lending portfolios. Emerging

local or global macroeconomic, microeconomic or political

events, and natural disasters that are not incorporated into our

current parameters, risk ratings, or forward-looking information

are examples of such circumstances. The use of management

temporary adjustments may impact the amount of ECL

recognised.

The uncertainty associated with the ongoing but moderating

COVID-19 pandemic, and the recent floods in NSW and

Queensland, and the extent to which the actions of

governments, businesses and consumers influence credit

outcomes are not fully incorporated into existing ECL models

which are based on historical underlying data. Accordingly,

management overlays have been applied to ensure credit

provisions are appropriate.

Management have continued to apply a number of adjustments

to the modelled ECL primarily due to the uncertainty associated

with continuing but moderating COVID-19 impacts. Additional

adjustments have been made in the March 2022 half year to

accommodate the potential impact of recent floods in NSW and

Queensland.

Management overlays (including COVID-19 overlays) which add

to the modelled ECL provision have been made for risks

particular to retail, including home loans, small business and

commercial banking in Australia, for personal and business

banking in New Zealand, and for tourism in the Pacific.

Base case economic forecast assumptions

Continuing uncertainties described above increase the risk of the economic forecast resulting in an understatement or overstatement of the ECL balance.

The economic drivers of the base case economic forecasts, reflective of ANZ Economics’ view of future macro-economic conditions, used at 31 March

2022 are set out below. For years beyond the near-term forecasts below, the ECL models project future year economic conditions which include an

assumption of eventual reversion to mid-cycle economic conditions.

The base case economic forecasts above indicate an improvement in current economic conditions in Australia and rest of world as the COVID-19

pandemic passes its peak. Economic conditions are forecast to moderate slightly over the forecast period. The base case economic forecast for New

Zealand on the other hand reflects a weakening in current economic conditions adding to inflation pressure for a time and weighing on economic activity.

Probability weightings

Probability weightings for each scenario are determined by management considering the risks and uncertainties surrounding the base case economic

scenario including the uncertainties described above.

The base case scenario represents an improvement in the forecasts since September 2021 for Australia and Rest of World, but a deterioration is forecast

for New Zealand. Given the uncertainties associated with a potential ongoing recovery in the economy and external factors, the average base case

weighting across geographies has been reduced to 40.0% (Sep 21: 41.3%) and the severe downside scenario increased to 10.0% (Sep 21: 5.8%).

ECL - Sensitivity analysis

Given current economic uncertainties and the judgement applied to factors used in determining the expected default of borrowers in future periods,

expected credit losses reported by the Group should be considered as a best estimate within a range of possible estimates. The table below illustrates

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

The majority of valuation models the Group uses to value financial instruments employ only observable market data as inputs.

For certain financial instruments, we may use data that is not readily observable in current markets where it is necessary to exercise more management

judgement to determine fair value depending on the significance of the unobservable input to the overall valuation. Generally, we derive unobservable

inputs from other relevant market data and compare them to observed transaction prices where available.

At 31 March 2022, the Group had $1,580 million of assets and $23 million of liabilities where the valuation was primarily derived using unobservable

inputs (Sep 21: $1,497 million assets and $30 million liabilities; Mar 21: $1,224 million assets and $25 million liabilities). The financial instruments which

are valued using unobservable inputs are predominantly equity securities where quoted prices in active markets are not available.

The Group has an investment in the Bank of Tianjin (BoT), which at 31 March 2022 has a carrying value of $956 million (Sep 21: $991 million; Mar 21:

$1,019 million). The listed shares are illiquid, consequently the Group determines the fair value based on a valuation model using comparable bank

pricing multiples as determined by management. Judgement is required in both the selection of the model and inputs used. Although the comparator

group entities operate in the same industry, the nature of their business and local economic conditions may be different from the Group’s investment.

Thus where local conditions change, which impact the price-to-book ratio of the comparator group, the fair value of the asset will change proportionately.

That is, if the price-to-book ratio changed by 10%, the fair value would change by 10%. Since the asset is classified as fair value through other

comprehensive income, changes in the fair value are recorded directly in equity.

Investments in associates

The Group assesses the carrying value of its associate investments for impairment indicators semi-annually.

At 31 March 2022, the impairment assessment of non-lending assets identified that one of the Group’s associate investments, PT Bank Pan Indonesia

(PT Panin) had indicators of impairment. No impairment was recognised as its carrying value was supported by a value-in-use (VIU) calculation.

Significant management judgement is required in determining the key assumptions underpinning the VIU calculation for PT Panin. Factors may change in

subsequent periods and lead to potential future impairment or a reversal of prior period impairment. These include forecast earnings levels in the near

term and/or changes in the long term growth forecasts, required levels of regulatory capital and the post-tax discount rate. The key assumptions used in

the VIU calculation are outlined below:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of preparation, cont’d


The VIU calculation is sensitive to changes in the underlying assumptions with reasonably possible changes in key assumptions having a positive or

negative impact on the VIU outcome, and as such the recoverable amount of the investment.

 A change in the March 2022 post-tax discount rate by +/- 50 bps would impact the VIU outcome for PT Panin by ($51 million)/$57 million;

 A change in the March 2022 terminal growth rate by +/- 25 bps would impact the VIU outcome for PT Panin by $15 million/($14 million).

The investment in PT Panin would not be impaired if the terminal growth rate reduced by the reasonably possible changes above. Holding all other inputs

constant, the post-tax discount rate will need to increase by more than 20 bps before an impairment would be recognised.

Goodwill

The Group’s goodwill balance as at 31 March 2022 is $3,062 million. During the March 2022 half, the following changes to goodwill attributable to the

Australian Retail and Commercial division occurred:

 A reduction of $40 million goodwill in relation to the exit of the financial planning and advice business servicing the affluent customer segment;

 An increase of $91 million goodwill in relation to the acquisition of the Cashrewards business. This goodwill is provisionally recognised under AASB 3

Business Combinations until a final purchase price allocation is completed.

The Group conducted an assessment as to whether the carrying value of goodwill was impaired. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired

in a business combination is allocated at the date of acquisition to the cash generating units (CGUs) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the

related business combination. These CGUs are the Group’s reportable segments. CGUs with goodwill as at 31 March 2022 were the Australia Retail and

Commercial division ($191 million), the New Zealand division ($1,800 million) and the Institutional division ($1,072 million).

Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying amount of the relevant CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. We estimate the recoverable amount of

each CGU to which goodwill is allocated using a fair value less costs of disposal (FVLCOD) approach, with a VIU assessment performed where the

FVLCOD approach indicates an impairment.

Management’s approach used to determine the FVLCOD of each CGU was consistent with the prior periods. The assessment of the recoverable amount

of each CGU has been made considering the impacts of COVID-19 and subsequent economic recovery and reflects expectations of future events that

are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The key inputs used to determine FVLCOD of each CGU containing goodwill are noted below:

 Future maintainable earnings for each CGU has been estimated based on the Group’s financial year 2022 forecast for each CGU plus an allocation

of the central costs recorded outside of the CGUs to which goodwill is allocated;

 Price/Earnings (P/E) multiples applied (including 30% control premium) for each CGU are derived from the valuations of comparator entities:

Division

Mar 22 Half Year Sep 21 Full Year

Australia Retail and Commercial 20.5 18.9

New Zealand 17.8 16.4

Institutional

16.6 15.5

Based on the FVLCOD assessment, no impairment was identified.

Customer remediation provisions

At 31 March 2022, the Group has recognised customer remediation provisions of $853 million (Sep 21: $886 million; Mar 21: $1,003 million) which

includes provisions for expected refunds to customers, remediation project costs and related customer and regulatory claims, penalties and litigation

costs and outcomes.

Determining the amount of the provisions, which represent management’s best estimate of the cost of settling the identified matters, requires the exercise

of significant judgement. It will often be necessary to form a view on a number of different assumptions, including the number of impacted customers, the

average refund per customer, associated remediation project costs, and the implications of regulatory exposures and customer claims having regard to

their specific facts and circumstances.

Consequently, the appropriateness of the underlying assumptions is reviewed on a regular basis against actual experience and other relevant evidence,

including expert legal advice, and adjustments are made to the provisions where appropriate.

Other provisions

The Group holds provisions for various obligations including restructuring costs, non-lending losses, fraud and forgeries and litigation related claims.

These provisions involve judgements regarding the timing and outcome of future events, including estimates of expenditure required to satisfy such

obligations. The appropriateness of the underlying assumptions is reviewed on a regular basis against actual experience and other relevant evidence,

including expert legal advice, and adjustments are made to the provisions where appropriate.

1. Basis of preparation, cont’d

vi) Interest rate benchmark reform

Interbank offered rates (IBORs), such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), have played a critical role in global financial markets, serving as

reference rates for derivatives, loans and securities, and in the valuation of financial instruments. The IBOR reforms have a wide-ranging impact for the

Group and our customers given the fundamental differences between IBORs and risk-free rates (RFRs). RFRs are available both as backward-looking in

arrears rates and, for some currencies, as forward-looking term rates. The key difference between IBORs and RFRs is that IBOR rates include a term

and bank credit risk premium, whereas RFRs do not. As a result of these differences, adjustments are required to an RFR to ensure contracts referencing

an IBOR rate transition on an economically comparable basis.

Update on the Group’s approach to interest rate benchmark reform

In line with the regulatory announcements made in 2021, the majority of IBOR rates, including Pound Sterling (GBP), Euro (EUR), Swiss Franc (CHF)

and Japanese Yen (JPY), and the US Dollar (USD) 1-week and 2-month LIBOR rate settings ceased on 31 December 2021 and have been replaced by

alternative RFRs.

With the exception of a limited number of contracts currently being published under an amended methodology, commonly known as ‘synthetic’ GBP and

JPY LIBOR rates, the Group transitioned all its loan and derivative contracts with customers referencing IBOR rates subject to 31 December 2021

cessation to contracts referencing RFRs on or before the cessation date. This transition had an immaterial impact to the Group’s profit and loss. Through

its loan and derivative transactions with customers, issuance of debt and its asset and liability management activities the Group continues to have

exposure to the remaining USD LIBOR settings and other IBOR-related benchmarks that are due to cease by 30 June 2023 and limited exposure to

synthetic GBP and JPY LIBOR benchmarks that are due to cease by 31 December 2022.

The Group continues to manage the transition from the remaining USD LIBOR tenors and other remaining IBOR settings to RFR’s through its enterprise-

wide Benchmark Transition Program (the Program). The program is responsible for managing the risks associated with the transition including

operational, market, legal, conduct and financial reporting risks that may arise.

Exposures subject to benchmark reform as at 31 March 2022

The table below shows the Group’s exposure to interest rate benchmarks subject to IBOR reform. These are financial instruments that contractually

reference an IBOR benchmark planned to transition to an RFR, and have a contractual maturity date beyond the planned IBOR cessation date.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding

during the period (after eliminating ANZ shares held within the Group referred to as treasury shares). Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the profit or

loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the basic EPS calculation for the effect of dilutive

potential ordinary shares.

7. Segment analysis

i) Description of segments

On 1 March 2022, the Group announced a structural change to the existing Australia Retail and Commercial division, and the digital businesses in the

Group Centre division (formerly known as the Technology, Services & Operations (TSO) and Group Centre division). This involves the integration of the

Australian retail and digital businesses, and the separation of the Australian commercial business into a new division. The new reporting segments will be

reflected in the September 2022 half to align with the implementation of the changes from 1 April 2022. The segment disclosures below remain

unchanged from those reported at 30 September 2021 and are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, being the

Chief Executive Officer, during the March 2022 half.

During the March 2022 half, the Group operated on a divisional structure with five continuing divisions: Australia Retail and Commercial, Institutional,

New Zealand, Pacific, and Group Centre. For further information on the composition of divisions refer to the Definitions on page 133.

ii) Operating segments

ANZ measures the performance of continuing segments on a cash profit basis. To calculate cash profit, certain non-core items are removed from

statutory profit. Details of these items are included in the ‘Other items’ section of this note.

Transactions between divisions across segments within ANZ are conducted on an arm’s-length basis and disclosed as part of the income and expenses

of these segments.

8. Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are contracts whose value is derived from one or more underlying variables or indices defined in the contract, require little

or no initial net investment and are settled at a future date. Derivatives include contracts traded on registered exchanges and contracts agreed between

counterparties. The use of derivatives and their sale to customers as risk management products is an integral part of the Group’s trading and sales

activities. Derivatives are also used to manage the Group’s own exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates as part of its asset and

liability management activities (balance sheet risk management).

The following table includes all trading and balance sheet risk management contracts. The derivative instruments become favourable (assets) or

unfavourable (liabilities) as a result of fluctuations in market rates relative to the terms of the derivative.

Customer remediation

Customer remediation includes provisions for expected refunds to customers, remediation project costs and related customer and regulatory claims,

penalties and litigation costs and outcomes.

Restructuring costs

Provisions for restructuring costs arise from activities related to material changes in the scope of business undertaken by the Group or the manner in

which that business is undertaken and include employee termination benefits. Costs relating to on-going activities are not provided for and are expensed

as incurred.

Non-lending losses, frauds and forgeries

Non-lending losses include losses arising from certain legal actions not directly related to amounts of principal outstanding for loans and advances and

losses arising from forgeries, frauds and the correction of operational issues. The amounts recognised are the best estimate of the consideration required

to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties that surround the events and circumstances that affect

the provision.

Other

Other comprise various other provisions including workers compensation, make-good provisions associated with leased premises, warranties and

indemnities provided in connection with various disposals of businesses and assets, and contingent liabilities recognised as part of a business

combination.

Each of the ANZ Capital Notes will convert into a variable number of ANZ ordinary shares on a specified mandatory conversion date at a 1% discount (subject to certain conditions being

variable number of ANZ ordinary shares at a 1% discount subject to a maximum conversion number. Subject to certain conditions, the notes are redeemable or convertible into ANZ ordinary

shares (on similar terms to mandatory conversion) by ANZ at its discretion on an early redemption or conversion date.

3.

On 15 June 2016, ANZ acting through its London branch issued US$1 billion fully-paid perpetual subordinated contingent convertible securities (ANZ Capital Securities). If ANZ’s Common

Equity Tier 1 capital ratio is equal to or less than 5.125%, or ANZ receives a notice of non-viability from APRA, then the securities will immediately convert into a variable number of ANZ

ordinary shares at a 1% discount subject to a maximum conversion number. Subject to certain conditions, on the First Reset Date (15 June 2026) and on each 5 year anniversary, ANZ has

the right to redeem all of the securities at its discretion.

4.

On 31 March 2015, ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited (ANZ New Zealand) issued NZ$500 million convertible notes (ANZ New Zealand Capital Notes). The ANZ New Zealand Capital Notes

were redeemed on 31 December 2021.

5.

The USD 300 million perpetual subordinated notes ceased to be treated as Basel 3 transitional Tier 2 capital under APRA’s capital framework from 1 January 2022.

6.

All the term subordinated notes are convertible and are Basel 3 compliant instruments. If ANZ receives a notice of non-viability from APRA, then the convertible subordinated notes will

immediately convert into a variable number of ANZ ordinary shares at a 1% discount subject to a maximum conversion number.

7.

A subsidiary of the Group, ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited, issued NZ$600 million of unsecured subordinated notes in September 2021. Whilst these notes constitute Tier 2 capital under

RBNZ requirements, the notes do not contain a Non-Viability Trigger Event and therefore do not meet APRA's requirements for Tier 2 capital instruments in order to qualify as regulatory

capital for the Group. Other subordinated debt securities also includes ANZ’s USD 300 million perpetual subordinated notes from 1 January 2022 (refer to footnote 5).

14. Credit risk


Maximum exposure to credit risk

For financial assets recognised on the balance sheet, the maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount. In certain circumstances there may be

differences between the carrying amounts reported on the balance sheet and the amounts reported in the tables below. Principally, these differences

arise in respect of financial assets that are subject to risks other than credit risk, such as equity instruments which are primarily subject to market risk, or

bank notes and coins.

For undrawn facilities, this maximum exposure to credit risk is the full amount of the committed facilities. For contingent exposures, the maximum

exposure to credit risk is the maximum amount the group would have to pay if the instrument is called upon.

The table below shows the maximum exposure to credit risk of on-balance sheet, and off-balance sheet positions before taking account of any collateral

held or other credit enhancements:

Credit Quality

The Group’s internal Customer Credit Rating (CCR) is used to manage the credit quality of financial assets. To enable wider comparisons, the Group’s

CCRs are mapped to external rating agency scales as follows:


Credit Quality

Description Internal CCR ANZ Customer Requirement

Moody's

Rating

Standard &

Poor's

Rating

Strong CCR 0+ to 4-

Demonstrated superior stability in their operating and financial performance over the

long-term, and whose earnings capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable

events.

Aaa - Baa3 AAA - BBB-

Satisfactory CCR 5+ to 6-

Demonstrated sound operational and financial stability over the medium to long term

even though some may be susceptible to cyclical trends or variability in earnings.

Ba1 - B1 BB+ - B+

Weak CCR 7+ to 8=

Demonstrated some operational and financial instability, with variability and

uncertainty in profitability and liquidity projected to continue over the short and

possibly medium term.

B2 - Caa B - CCC

Defaulted CCR8- to 10

When doubt arises as to the collectability of a credit facility, the financial instrument

(or ‘the facility’) is classified as defaulted.

15. Fair value measurement

The Group carries a significant number of financial instruments on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair value is the best estimate of the price that would

be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.


i) Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on the balance sheet

a) Valuation

The Group has an established control framework, including appropriate segregation of duties, to ensure that fair values are accurately determined,

reported and controlled. The framework includes the following features:

 products are approved for transacting with external customers and counterparties only where fair values can be appropriately determined;

 when using quoted prices to value an instrument, these are independently verified from external pricing providers;

 fair value methodologies and inputs are evaluated and approved by a function independent of the party that undertakes the transaction;

 movements in fair values are independently monitored and explained by reference to underlying factors relevant to the fair value; and

 valuation adjustments (such as funding valuation adjustments, credit valuation adjustments and bid-offer adjustments) are independently validated

and monitored.

If the Group holds offsetting risk positions, then the Group uses the portfolio exception in AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement (AASB 13) to measure the

fair value of such groups of financial assets and financial liabilities. We measure the portfolio based on the price that would be received to sell a net long

position (an asset) for a particular risk exposure, or to transfer a net short position (a liability) for a particular risk exposure.

b) Fair value approach and valuation techniques

We use valuation techniques to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities for recognition, measurement and disclosure purposes where no quoted

price in an active market for that asset or liability exists. This includes the following:


Asset or Liability Fair Value Approach

Financial instruments classified as:

- trading securities

- securities sold short

- derivative financial assets and liabilities

- investment securities

- other assets

Valuation techniques are used that incorporate observable market inputs for securities

with similar credit risk, maturity and yield characteristics. Equity instruments that are not

traded in active markets may be measured using comparable company valuation

multiples.

Financial instruments classified as:

- net loans and advances

- deposits and other borrowings

- debt issuances

Discounted cash flow techniques are used whereby contractual future cash flows of the

instrument are discounted using discount rates incorporating wholesale market interest

rates, or market borrowing rates for debt with similar maturities or with a yield curve

appropriate for the remaining term to maturity.

There were no significant changes to valuation approaches during the current or prior halves.

c) Fair value hierarchy

The Group categorises financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value into a fair value hierarchy as required by AASB 13 based on the observability of

inputs used to measure the fair value:

 Level 1 - valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 Level 2 - valuations using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for a similar asset or liability, either directly or

indirectly; and

 Level 3 - valuations where significant unobservable inputs are used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability.

There were no significant changes to levelling approaches during the current or prior halves.

ii) Details of fair value measurements that incorporate unobservable market data

a) Level 3 fair value measurements

The net balance of Level 3 financial instruments is an asset of $1,557 million (Sep 21: $1,467 million; Mar 21: $1,199 million). The assets and liabilities

which incorporate significant unobservable inputs primarily include:

 equities for which there is no active market or traded prices cannot be observed;

 net loans and advances that are required to be measured at fair value for which there is no observable market data; and

 derivatives referencing market rates that cannot be observed, primarily due to lack of market activity.

The material Level 3 financial instruments as at March 2022 are summarised below:

Bank of Tianjin (BoT)

The investment is valued based on comparative price-to-book (P/B) multiples (a P/B multiple is the ratio of the market value of equity to the book value of

equity). The extent of judgement applied in determining the appropriate multiple and comparator group from which the multiple is derived are non-

observable inputs which have resulted in the Level 3 classification. As at March 2022, the BoT equity holding balance was $956 million. Movements in

the BoT balance of -$35 million in the March 2022 half was mainly due to the decrease of the P/B multiple for valuation.

1835i Ventures Trust - Equity Holding

The Group holds a number of unlisted equities in its 1835i Ventures Trust business units managed by 1835i, for which there are no active markets or

traded prices available resulting in Level 3 classification. As at March 2022, the total FVOCI unlisted equities holding in 1835i business unit was $280

million. Movements in the 1835i equity holding balances of $39 million in the March 2022 half was mainly due to new purchase.

Institutional division - Equity Holding

The Group also holds a number of unlisted equities in the Institutional division, for which there are no active markets or traded prices available resulting in

Level 3 classification. As at March 2022, the total FVOCI unlisted equities holding in this business unit was $126 million. Movements in the Institutional

division equity holding balances of $83 million in the March 2022 half was mainly due to new purchase.

Syndication Loan Held for Sale

The Group holds a number of syndication loans for sale which are measured at FVTPL. These loans are classified as Level 3 when there is no

observable market data available for valuation. As at March 2022, the syndication loan Level 3 balance was $112 million. During the March 2022 half, the

Group transferred $28 million of syndication loans measured at fair value from Level 2 to Level 3, when valuation parameters for these financial

instruments became unobservable.

b) Sensitivity to Level 3 data inputs

When we make assumptions due to significant inputs not being directly observable in the market place (Level 3 inputs), then changing these assumptions

changes the Group’s estimate of the instrument’s fair value. Favourable and unfavourable changes are determined by changing the primary

unobservable parameter used in deriving the valuation.

Bank of Tianjin (BoT)

The valuation of the BoT investment is sensitive to the selected unobservable input, being the P/B multiple. If the P/B multiple was increased or

decreased by 10% it would result in a $96 million increase or decrease to the fair value of the investment (Sep 21: $99 million; Mar 21: $102 million),

which would be recognised in Other comprehensive income.

Other

The remaining Level 3 balance is immaterial and changes in the Level 3 inputs would have a minimal impact on net profit and net assets of the Group.

c) Deferred fair value gains and losses

When fair values are determined using unobservable inputs significant to the fair value of a financial instrument, the Group does not immediately

recognise the difference between the transaction price and the amount we determine based on the valuation technique (referred to as the day one gain or

loss) in profit or loss. After initial recognition, we recognise the deferred amount in profit or loss over the life of the transaction on a straight line basis or

when all inputs become observable.

The day one gains and losses deferred are immaterial.

iii) Financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value

The classes of financial assets and liabilities listed in the table below are predominately carried at amortised cost on the Group’s balance sheet. Whilst

this is the value at which we expect the assets will be realised and the liabilities settled, the Group provides an estimate of the fair value of these financial

assets and liabilities at balance date in the table below for the entire class of financial assets and financial liabilities.

17. Changes in composition of the Group

The Group held 19% of Cashrewards Limited (Cashrewards) prior to obtaining control on 24 December 2021, and completing the acquisition of 100% of

its ordinary shares on 23 February 2022. The Group’s initial 19% holding had a fair value of $17 million when control was obtained, with consideration of

$80 million paid or payable in acquiring the remaining 81% of the company. On completion, the Group provisionally accounted for $6 million of net

tangible asset and $91 million of goodwill while the Group completes its purchase price allocation.

On 15 December 2020, the Group announced the sale of its merchant acquiring business and entered into an alliance with the acquirer Worldline. On

completion on 31 March 2022, the Group recognised a gain on sale after tax of $335 million and recognised its 49% interest in the new Worldline

partnership at a fair value of $57 million.

The contribution of these entities to the Group’s profit from ordinary activities during the half year ended 31 March 2022 was not material to the Group.

1.

Following AmBank’s agreement with the Malaysian Ministry of Finance to resolve potential claims relating to its involvement with 1Malaysia Development Berhad, the Group recognised a

$212 million reduction in equity accounted earnings reflecting its share of the settlement provision during the March 2021 half, with a corresponding decrease in the carrying value of the

investment.

2.

During the March 2021 half, AmBank partially impaired goodwill carried on its balance sheet and the Group recognised a $135 million reduction in equity accounted earnings reflecting its

share of the impairment recognised by AmBank, with a corresponding decrease in the carrying value of the investment.

3.

The Group entered into a partnership with the European-based payments company Worldline in March 2022. The partnership arrangement involves ANZ and Worldline forming a newly

created merchant acquiring group, with ANZ and Worldline holding a 49% and 51% interest respectively.


19. Related party disclosure

There have been no transactions with related parties that are significant to understanding the changes in financial position and performance of the Group

since 30 September 2021.


20. 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 (refer to Note 12) 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.

Refer to Note 33 of the 2021 ANZ Annual Financial Report for a description of contingent liabilities and contingent assets as at 30 September 2021. A

summary of those contingent liabilities, and new contingent liabilities that have arisen in the current reporting period, is set out below.

 Regulatory and customer exposures

In recent years there has been an increase in the number of matters on which the Group engages with its regulators. There have also been

significant increases in the nature and scale of regulatory investigations, surveillance and reviews, civil and criminal enforcement actions (whether by

court action or otherwise), formal and informal inquiries, regulatory supervisory activities and the quantum of fines issued by regulators, particularly

against financial institutions both in Australia and globally. The Group has received various notices and requests for information from its regulators as

part of both industry-wide and Group-specific reviews and has also made disclosures to its regulators at its own instigation. The nature of these

interactions can be wide ranging and, for example, include or have included a range of matters including responsible lending practices, regulated

lending requirements, product suitability and distribution, interest and fees and the entitlement to charge them, customer remediation, wealth advice,

insurance distribution, pricing, competition, conduct in financial markets and financial transactions, capital market transactions, anti-money laundering

and counter-terrorism financing obligations, reporting and disclosure obligations and product disclosure documentation. 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.

 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. 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 certain benchmark rates. The claimants sought damages or compensation in amounts not specified,

and alleged that the defendant banks, including the Company, violated US anti-trust laws, antiracketeering laws, and (in one case only), the

Commodity Exchange Act and unjust enrichment principles. As at 31 March 2022, ANZ has reached an agreement to settle one of these matters,

and an in-principle agreement to settle the other. The financial impact is not material. The settlements are without admission of liability and remain

subject to finalisation and court approval.

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.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

20. Contingent liabilities and contingent assets, cont’d

 Capital raising action

In September 2018, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) commenced civil penalty proceedings against the Company

alleging failure to comply with continuous disclosure obligations in connection with the Company’s August 2015 underwritten institutional equity

placement. ASIC alleges the Company should have advised the market that the joint lead managers took up approximately 25.5 million ordinary

shares of the placement. The Company is defending the allegations.

 Consumer credit insurance litigation

In February 2020, a class action was brought against the Company alleging breaches of financial advice obligations, misleading or deceptive conduct

and unconscionable conduct in relation to the distribution of consumer credit insurance products. The issuers of the insurance products, QBE and

OnePath Life, are also defendants to the claim. The Company is defending the allegations.

 Esanda dealer car loan litigation

In August 2020, a class action was brought against the Company alleging unfair conduct, misleading or deceptive conduct and equitable mistake in

relation to the use of flex commissions in dealer arranged Esanda car loans. The Company is defending the allegations.

 OnePath superannuation litigation

In December 2020, a class action was brought against OnePath Custodians, OnePath Life and the Company alleging that OnePath Custodians

breached its obligations under superannuation legislation, and its duties as trustee, in respect of superannuation investments and fees. The claim

also alleges that the Company was involved in some of OnePath Custodians’ investment breaches. The Company is defending the allegations.

 New Zealand loan information litigation

In September 2021, a representative proceeding was brought against ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited, alleging breaches of disclosure requirements

under consumer credit legislation in respect of variation letters sent to certain loan customers. ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited is defending the

allegations.

 Credit cards litigation

In November 2021, a class action was brought against the Company alleging that certain interest terms in credit card contracts were unfair contract

terms and that it was unconscionable for the Company to rely on them. The Company is defending the allegations.

 Unlicensed third parties action

In November 2021, ASIC commenced civil penalty proceedings against the Company alleging that three unlicensed third parties provided home loan

application documents to the Company’s lenders, including in connection with the Company’s home loan introducer program. ASIC alleges that the

Company contravened its obligations under credit legislation. The Company is defending the allegations.

 Breakfree/offset action

In December 2021, ASIC commenced civil penalty proceedings against the Company in relation to benefits including fee waivers and discounts not

being applied under the ANZ Breakfree package, as well as system errors impacting offset account calculations. ASIC seeks civil penalties in respect

of alleged false or misleading representations and unconscionable conduct. ASIC also alleges that the Company engaged in misleading or deceptive

conduct and breached certain statutory obligations as a financial services licensee. The Company is not contesting the claim and will join ASIC to

submit a proposed penalty of $25 million to the Court.

 Royal Commission

The Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry released its final report on 4 February 2019.

Following the Royal Commission there have been, and continue to be, additional costs and further exposures, including exposures associated with

further regulator activity or potential customer exposures such as class actions, individual claims or customer remediation or compensation activities.

The outcomes and total costs associated with these 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. These claims will be

defended.

 Warranties, indemnities and performance management fees

The Group has provided warranties, indemnities and other commitments in favour of the purchaser and other persons in connection with various

disposals of businesses and assets and other transactions, covering a range of matters and risks. It is exposed to claims under those warranties,

indemnities and commitments, some of which are currently active. The outcomes and total costs associated with these exposures remain uncertain.

The Group has entered an arrangement to pay performance management fees to external fund managers in the event predetermined performance

criteria are satisfied in relation to certain Group investments. The satisfaction of the performance criteria and associated management fee remains

uncertain.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

20. Contingent liabilities and contingent assets, cont’d


 Clearing and settlement obligations

Certain group companies have a commitment to comply with rules governing various clearing and settlement arrangements which could result in a

credit risk exposure and loss if another member institution fails to settle its payment clearing activities. The Group’s potential exposure arising from

these arrangements is unquantifiable in advance.

Certain group companies hold memberships of central clearing houses, including ASX Clear (Futures), London Clearing House (LCH) SwapClear

and RepoClear, Korea Exchange (KRX), Hong Kong Exchange (HKEX), Clearing Corporation of India and the Shanghai Clearing House. These

memberships allow the relevant group company to centrally clear derivative instruments in line with cross-border regulatory requirements. Common

to all of these memberships is the requirement for the relevant group company to make default fund contributions. In the event of a default by another

member, the relevant group company could potentially be required to commit additional default fund contributions which are unquantifiable in

advance.

 Parent entity guarantees

The Company has issued letters of comfort and guarantees in respect of certain subsidiaries in the normal course of business. Under these letters

and guarantees, the Company undertakes to ensure that those subsidiaries continue to meet their financial obligations, subject to certain conditions

including that the entity remains a controlled entity of the Company.

 Sale of Grindlays business

On 31 July 2000, the Company completed the sale to Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) of ANZ Grindlays Bank Limited (Grindlays) and certain other

businesses. The Company provided warranties and indemnities relating to those businesses. The indemnified matters include civil penalty

proceedings and criminal prosecutions brought by Indian authorities against Grindlays and certain of its officers, in relation to certain transactions

conducted in 1991 that are alleged to have breached the Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1973. Civil penalties were imposed in 2007 which are

the subject of appeals. The criminal prosecutions are being defended.


21. Significant events since balance date

The Group intends to lodge a formal application with APRA, the Federal Treasurer and other applicable regulators to establish a non-operating holding

company and create distinct banking and non-banking groups within the organisation. Following preliminary discussions, APRA has advised they have no

in-principle objection to the proposed restructure. The Group has also consulted other key Australian and New Zealand regulators and to date has not

received any objections. Consultation and engagement remains ongoing. Further information about the proposal can be found at

http://shareholder.anz.com.

There have been no other significant events from 31 March 2022 to the date of signing this report.

AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT AND INDEPENDENCE DECLARATION


118


Independent Auditor’s Review Report to the shareholders of Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited

Report on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (the Group).

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the Condensed Consolidated Financial

Statements of Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited are not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

i) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 March 2022 and of its performance for the half year ended on that date; and

ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements comprise:

 The condensed consolidated balance sheet as at 31 March 2022;

 The condensed consolidated income statement, condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement

of changes in equity, and condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the half year ended on that date;

 Notes 1 to 21 comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information; and

 The Directors’ Declaration.

The Group comprises Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled at the half year’s end or from time

to time during the half year.

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. Our

responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report.

We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements

of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence

Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in

accordance with these requirements.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The Directors of the Company are responsible for:

 the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting

Standards and the Corporations Act 2001; and

 such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements that

give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s responsibility for the review of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to

conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not comply

with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 March 2022 and its performance for the half

year ended on that date, and complying with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations

2001.

A review of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting

matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with

Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might

be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

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 as defined by APRA.


ANZEST - ANZ Employee Share Trust.


ANZ Research - Economics, a business unit within ANZ, which conducts analysis of key economic inputs and developments and assessment of the

potential impacts on the local, regional and global economies.


APRA - Australian Prudential Regulation Authority.


APS - ADI Prudential Standard.


AT1 - Additional Tier 1 capital.


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

repurchase agreements) 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 core 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

core operations of the Group;

2. 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 credit risk on impaired derivatives.

Cash profit is not a measure of cash flow or profit determined on a cash accounting basis.


Collectively assessed allowance for expected credit loss represents the Expected Credit Loss (ECL), which incorporates forward-looking information

and does not require an actual loss event to have occurred for a credit loss provision to be recognised.


Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a respiratory illness which was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. COVID-19 was characterised

as a pandemic by the World Health Organisation on 11 March 2020.


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 (CRWA) 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.


Customer remediation includes provisions for expected refunds to customers, remediation project costs and related customer and regulatory claims,

penalties and litigation outcomes.


Derivative credit valuation adjustment (CVA) - Over the life of a derivative instrument, ANZ uses a 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.


Embedded losses - In relation to interest rate risk in the banking book, APRA requires ADIs to give consideration to embedded gains or losses in

banking book items that are not accounted for on a marked-to-market basis when determining regulatory capital. The embedded loss or gain measures

the difference between the book value and the economic value of banking book activities at a point in time.


Fair value is an amount at which an asset or liability could be exchanged between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm’s length transaction.


Funding for Lending Programme (FLP) refers to three-year funding announced by the RBNZ in November 2020 and offered to New Zealand banks,

which aimed to lower the cost of borrowing for New Zealand businesses and households.


Gross loans and advances (GLA) is made up of loans and advances, capitalised brokerage and other origination costs less unearned income.


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.


Impaired loans comprise drawn facilities where the customer’s status is defined as impaired.


Individually assessed allowance for expected credit losses is assessed on a case-by-case basis for all individually managed impaired assets taking

into consideration factors such as the realisable value of security (or other credit mitigants), the likely return available upon liquidation or bankruptcy, legal

uncertainties, estimated costs involved in recovery, the market price of the exposure in secondary markets and the amount and timing of expected

receipts and recoveries.


DEFINITIONS

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).


Level 1 in the context of APRA supervision, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited consolidated with certain approved subsidiaries.


Level 2 in the context of APRA supervision, the consolidated ANZ Group excluding associates, insurance and funds management entities, commercial

non-financial entities and certain securitisation vehicles.


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 allowance for expected credit losses.


Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) is 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 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. ADIs must maintain

an NSFR of at least 100%.


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

and software).


RBA - Reserve Bank of Australia, Australia’s central bank.


RBNZ - Reserve Bank of New Zealand, New Zealand’s central bank.


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


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, divided by average total assets.


Return on average ordinary shareholders’ equity is the profit attributable to shareholders of the Company, divided by average ordinary shareholders’

equity.


Risk weighted assets (RWA) 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, vostro accounts and securities settlement accounts.


Term Funding Facility (TFF) refers to three-year funding announced by the RBA on 19 March 2020 and offered to ADIs in order to support lending to

Australian businesses at low cost.


Term Lending Facility (TLF) refers to three to five-year funding offered by the RBNZ between May 2020 and July 2021 to promote lending to New

Zealand businesses.

CEO COMMENTARY

3



• Positive balance sheet growth in Australia driven by improvements in home loan

processing capacity.

• Strong home loan momentum in New Zealand delivering market share growth.

• Institutional customer revenues grew strongly with risk-adjusted lending margins

expanding.

• Costs were tightly managed with ‘run the bank’ expenses coming in flat for the half

with investment focussed on operational resilience and new growth opportunities.


1 Cash Profit excludes non-core items included in Statutory Profit with the net after tax adjustment a reduction to Statutory Profit of $422m, made up of

several items.

2 Large/notables are items within Cash Profit that, given their nature and significance, are presented separately to provide transparency and aid

comparison. Large/notable items were -$43m after tax for the half.

3 All commentary is presented on a Cash Profit continuing basis excluding large/notable items with growth rates compared with the half year ended 30

September 2021 unless otherwise stated.


ANZ Chief Executive Officer Shayne Elliott said: “This was an important half in the continued

transformation of ANZ.


“The introduction of our new retail banking platform in Australia, ANZ Plus, designed and

built by our own teams using the world’s best technology was a key milestone. While still in

soft launch, the first ‘savings and transact’ product on ANZ Plus, a proposition focused on

helping customers better manage their financial wellbeing, is tracking well and will become

the core deposit and transaction product offered to new customers.


“Investments in our home loan processing capacity in Australia drove positive balance sheet

momentum while pr ocessing times are comparable to our major peers. We are on target to

grow in line with the Australian major banks by the end of our financial year but will do so

with an eye to our margin performance.


“Our position in New Zealand remains strong and we delivered disciplined growth across our

core products, particularly in home loans. We made good progress in finalising our

compliance with BS11 and expect to have this program largely completed this year. This has

been a major initiative that will result in a significantly stronger New Zealand franchise.


“Institutional customer revenues continued to grow with a focus on sustainable, high quality

and well diversified balance sheet growth. We also saw strong growth in processing payment

volumes for other Financial Institutions with processing for other banks is now generating

revenue of more than $150 million per annum at an ROE exceeding 40%.


“Costs across the Group remained tightly managed with ‘run the bank’ expenses coming in

flat for the half, despite growing inflationary pressure. Productivity remains a key priority as

we prioritise investments on increasing operational resilience and positioning the bank for

new growth opportunities.


“These investments include building the new retail banking platform in Australia, further

developing our sustainable finance capabilities, building a new Retail foreign exchange

proposition due later this year, rolling out Salesforce as a single customer service tool across

the entire enterprise and the continued migration of our applications to the cloud,” Mr Elliott

said.


DIVIDEND & CAPITAL


ANZ’s Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio of 11.5%, remains above the Australian Prudential

Regulation Authority’s ‘Unquestionably Strong’ benchmark. The Board considered an Interim

Dividend of 72 cents per share (cps) was appropriate and is consistent with its stated target

Dividend Payout Ratio (DPOR) of between 60% and 65% (cash continuing, ex large/notables

basis).


ANZ has led the industry on returning capital to shareholders and has just completed the

on -market buy-back of $1.5 billion of equity, bringing the total capital returned over five

years via buy-backs and neutralising the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) to more than

$5.5 billion.


ANZ is considering options for the best use of capital, including investing in additional

growth opportunities or returning any capital excess to its regulatory requirements to

shareholders. ANZ will update the market on any decisions in a timely manner. ANZ also

stated the DRP will continue to apply for the Interim 2022 Dividend at no discount.


CREDIT QUALITY


The total credit provision result for the first half was a net release of $284 million

comprising:


• a collective provision (CP) release of $371 million

• an individually assessed provision (IP) charge of $87 million


Customers are generally emerging from the pandemic in a position of strength, with healthy

balance sheets and low levels of arrears across key segments, leading to a low IP charge for

the half. Disciplined focus on strategy, customer selection and portfolio de-risking over
multiple years has contributed to this strong result.


An improving risk profile during the half drove the CP release and is a reflection of both

observed portfolio strength and a recognition that some of the more acute risks from the

pandemic are receding. However, the uncertainties associated with geo-political events and

rising inflation and interest rates, as well as the recent Australian floods have been reflected

in management overlays of $618 million. Our CP balance at 31 March 2022 of $3,757 million

represents additional provisions of $381 million compared with pre-COVID levels at 30

September 2019.


PROPOSED NON-OPERATING HOLDING COMPANY


ANZ also announced today it intends to lodge a formal application with APRA, the Federal

Treasurer and other applicable regulators to establish a non-operating holding company and

create distinct banking and non-banking groups within the organisation. This is consistent

with how many Financial Institutions are structured and will provide ANZ with greater

flexibility and the potential to create additional value for shareholders over time. Following

preliminary discussions, APRA has advised it ha s no in-principle objection to the proposed

restructure. ANZ has also consulted other key Australian and New Zealand regulators and to

date has not received any objections. Consultation and engagement remains ongoing.


Should the proposed restructure proceed, a new listed parent holding company will be

created with two wholly owned distinct groups of entities sitting directly beneath it. These

would include the ‘Banking Group’ which would comprise the current Australia and New

Zealand Banking Group Limited and the majority of its present-day subsidiaries and a ‘Non-

Banking Group’, which would allow banking-adjacent businesses to be developed or acquired

to help bring the best new technology and non-bank services to our customers. The majority

of ANZ’s 1835i investments and similar holdings would move to the Non-Banking Group.


Under this new structure there will be no impact on customers and no change to how ANZ’s

banking operations are regulated. As ANZ proceeds with a formal application, a

comprehensive consultation program with shareholders, employees and other stakeholders

will be undertaken. The proposal is subject to final ANZ Board approval and regulatory

approvals and will require approval by the Federal Court and ANZ shareholders. Further

information about the proposal can be found at http://shareholder.anz.com

we will continue to adjust our risk appetite, business settings and investment priorities as

required. We are already seeing increased demand from our business customers and we are

well placed to continue to support them as they manage in a world of higher inflation and

interest rates.


“For ANZ, we will continue to focus on the long term – investing for tomorrow and not just

running today. We have made good progress in building a resilient, agile bank for the

future. Our culture is strong and we have an embedded sense of purpose as an organisation

– to shape a world where people and communities thrive.”

Transcript of bluenotes video interview with ANZ Chief

Executive Officer Shayne Elliott


ANDREW CORNELL: Morning, Shayne. Thanks very much for joining us on bluenotes on the

morning of the half-year result. We're obviously entering a more uncertain environment,

again. COVID is still entrenched but we've got geopolitical tensions, we've got a rising

inflation environment around the world. And a rising interest rate environment around the

world. There's a prospect of rate rises down the track. In that context, when you look at this

particular result, is there more of a focus on stability and flexibility here or is it a growth

story?


SHAYNE ELLIOTT: So first of all, I think there's no question we are entering into a very, very

different operating environment. In fact, perhaps the most different we’ve seen in almost 30

years. We've had a 30-year operating environment which has seen interest rates fall over

that period of time, so just keeping it simple. And now we’re looking at a period that it

seems likely, globally, interest rates will be on the rise for a period. That's quite new for a

lot of our customers. Many of our customers have never lived through any of that, whether

they’re a small business or they’re a homeowner. So, things are going to be different, right?

Now people are wise and what they've done through this period, they've noted that there's

more uncertainty, so they've done what they should do. They’ve shored up their own

balance sheets. So, they've saved more. In fact, savings - household savings and small

business savings - are at record levels. People have put money aside for a rainy day

because of that uncertainty. They've paid down their most expensive debt. Credit card

balances are way down. That's a good thing in terms of people's financial security. And so,

they’re getting prepared for that future, whatever it may look like. And of course, rising

rates – that's going to hurt some people, that’s going to take money out of people's pockets.

But at this point, people are well prepared for it. And it is uncertain, but I think the bank’s

balance sheet in particular is in really good shape to be able to deal with it and to help

people through this next phase of transition.


ANDREW CORNELL: And when you look at the result that's reported today, what are you

seeing in that that feeds into this story? Where were the strengths and weaknesses?


SHAYNE ELLIOTT: Like everything there’s sort of two stories in here. There’s the strategic

story and then the more financial short term one. Strategically, we're really pleased with the

progress we made in the half. This is about a long-term transformation of ANZ as we know

it. Around these four really critical businesses that we have. We’ve got this great

Institutional bank, which is really well known for connecting Australia and New Zealand to

the rest of the world. And they had a really strong result. Customer revenues up quite

strongly, balance sheet growth, lending to people we know and like who are really funding

investment around the region. So, really good business, well disciplined, well-run business,

generating positive returns for shareholders. That's great. New Zealand – terrific business.

We’re the largest bank in New Zealand, we've got a great franchise, number one in almost

everything we do and that position strengthened over the period. And so again – good

growth, good lending growth, good financial performance, well disciplined, risk disciplined.

So Insto and New Zealand are in really good shape. And together, they’re well over half of

our capital as a bank. Australia a little bit tougher, a tougher environment for us at ANZ and

for the industry. Very, very competitive period of time. But nonetheless we strengthened

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited
9/833 Collins Street Docklands Victoria 3008 Australia

ABN 11 005 357 522



our strategic position. We launched ANZ Plus our new platform for long-term growth into our

retail strategy. And we announced the separation of our Commercial bank into a new

division to unlock its own growth potential in the future. On the headwinds side, however,

we didn't have a brilliant time in trading, in our Markets business. But that business comes

and goes and there are times when it's good and times when it isn't. And our experience

wasn't the greatest over the half, but we're confident about it returning to more normal in

the future. And, of course, there was some bits and pieces we announced, Andrew. We had

a few headwinds and some products that we've taken off the shelf that had some financial

impact. So, pretty good strategically, some financial headwinds. And then of course, let's

talk about cost. Whatever the environment is, businesses like ours need to be really, really

mindful of their operating cost and productivity. And ANZ has done a really good job on that

over the five or six years. And this was another half where we came in flat in terms of our

day-to-day running costs. That's pretty extraordinary in a time of inflation and that allowed

us to put even more money to work investing for growth in the future.


ANDREW CORNELL: And we'll talk to Farhan Faruqui, the CFO, about how he's balancing

that investment spend. But there's a sense that there's a bit of momentum here in the

business and you refer to ANZ Plus the new platform. It’s only just been launched, there's a

couple of propositions on it with more to come, but how significant is that in the future of

the Retail bank?


SHAYNE ELLIOTT: Well, it is the future of the retail bank so it’s extremely important. And

part of our job is to really communicate that more broadly to our customers and

stakeholders. It's easy to look at ANZ Plus as a new shiny app. Well, it is that and that's nice

but it's much more than that. It's a completely new bank, essentially built on entirely new

infrastructure. A more contemporary service model that allows us to deploy features and

functions at pace, at low cost, really, really safely. And so that really positions us for the

future, all built around this idea of financial wellbeing. Now, it’s really early days. We've

taken a leaf out of the playbook of tech firms, right? We’ve started simple – minimum viable

product, they call it. You just get something to market that works, that's really basic and

then you iterate and build from there based on customer feedback. So, we've got a really

basic product out in market now. It’s in soft launch, we haven’t even advertised it. It's doing

well, testing, learning, hearing from our customers and we're rapidly deploying the things

that they want, like PayID and bits and pieces like that, which are literally coming in the

coming weeks.


ANDREW CORNELL: And you touched on capital. Again, the capital generation story was a

solid story, but not a lot of things, well you haven't said anything greatly about what you're

going to do with the capital. How are you thinking about the capital at the moment?


SHAYNE ELLIOTT: Capital management, I think, has been really part of the DNA of ANZ over

the last five or six years. We've been really mindful that we are the custodian of our

shareholders’ capital and I think
