Message from Top Management

We extend our deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to all those who have suffered and the families and 

friends of those who tragically lost their lives in the Great East Japan Earthquake which struck Northeastern Japan 

in March 2011. We pray for the earliest recovery for the affected people and areas.

  We would like to thank all of our stakeholders for your continued support and patronage.

  We, Koichi Miyata and Takeshi Kunibe, succeeded the management in April 2011, and assumed the positions 

of President of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and President and CEO of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, 

respectively. In this annual report, we would like to present our initiatives implemented in fiscal 2010 and our 

management policies going forward.

SMFG’s consolidated ordinary profit increased by ¥266.7 billion 

to ¥825.4 billion and net income increased by ¥204.3 billion to 

¥475.9 billion. This significant increase was due mainly to:

-  an increase in SMBC’s banking profit due to an increase in gains 

on sale of bonds by successfully managing interest-rate fluctuation,

I sincerely believe that my mission as President of SMFG is to orchestrate the 

group in its next stage of development by further strengthening cooperation 

among our group companies and improving our ability to act with speed, leverag-

ing our existing business platform and corporate infrastructure we have created as 

a leading financial services group.

including broker/dealer services in addition to our core commercial banking 

services.

My mission as President and CEO of SMBC is to move the company

business franchise, capital foundation and sense of unity, which we have 

created and strengthened in the first decade of our operations.

“Provide the most sophisticated products and services to our clients,”

◎  Management Targets
For the first three years of the second decade of the SMBC and 

◎  Strategic Initiatives
In order to achieve the aforementioned management and financial 

SMFG group, we set two management targets in order to accom-

targets, we have designated the following five business areas as 

plish our basic policy of becoming a globally competitive financial 

critical strategic businesses for management:

services group with the highest trust of our clients and stakeholders 

by maximizing our strengths of “Spirit of Innovation,” “Speed” and 

“Solution & Execution.”  The first target is to achieve top quality in 

strategic business areas, and the second target is to establish a solid 

financial base and corporate infrastructure to be able to address the 

new financial regulations and competitive business environment.

◎  Financial Targets
In order to appropriately address the strengthening of financial regu-

lations globally, we are required to focus further on enhancement of 

risk-return and cost-return profiles and steadily expand bottom-line 

profit. Therefore, we need to capture overseas business oppor-

tunities especially in rapidly growing Asian markets in addition to 

sustaining and further strengthening our solid business operations 

in Japan.

Having this in mind, we strive to achieve well-balanced and 

steady improvement of “financial soundness,” “profitability” and 

“growth,” and we have set the following four objectives for the next 

three fiscal years:

• Financial consulting for individuals

• Solution providing for corporations

• Commercial banking in emerging markets, especially in Asia

• Broker-dealer/Investment banking

•  Non-asset business such as payment & settlement services and 

asset management

The growth of these business areas will be driven under two main 

initiatives of pursuing “synergies between SMBC and SMBC Nikko 

Securities” and “global expansion.” We will execute these initiatives 

on a group-wide basis, and also establish a solid financial base and 

corporate infrastructure that support these initiatives.

An “unpredictable,” “uncertain,” and “unstable” business environ-

ment still remains, due mainly to the diverse implications of the 

Great East Japan Earthquake to the Japanese economy, as well 

as fiscal deficits in the developed countries and soaring commodity 

prices. Furthermore, the global strengthening of financial regula-

tions requires banks, in the private sector, to achieve more efficient 

asset allocation, higher capital efficiency and more stringent liquidity

•  Expand overseas business by capturing growing business oppor-

Against  this  backdrop,  we  will  move  forward  responding 

proactively and flexibly to the continuously evolving environment, 

making every effort to increase our shareholders’ value and striving 

to become a top-tier global financial services group.

Business Overview

 ■ Consumer Banking

SMFG Group companies are enhancing their financial services 
for  clients.  Some  of  SMBC’s  noteworthy  achievements  in 
this area for fiscal 2010 are investment trusts outstanding of 
¥2.725 trillion (as of March 31, 2011); foreign bonds and yen-
denominated bond sales of ¥198 billion; pension-type insurance 
sales of ¥192.1 billion; single premium whole life insurance sales 
of ¥200.5 billion; and housing loans outstanding of ¥14.4908 
trillion (as of March 31, 2011).

Financial Consulting Business

In  fiscal  2010,  SMBC  continued  to 
enhance its product line up of invest-
ment trusts, pension-type insurance, 
life  insurance  and  other  financial 
products.

For investment trusts, the bank 
has expanded its product range to 
include  funds which invest in emerg-
ing  market  sovereign  bonds  and 
corporate bonds, funds which invest 
mainly in bonds issued by worldwide 
public  utilities  companies,  and 
Australian dollar-denominated foreign investment trusts which 
invest in international high-yield bonds.

SMBC  increased  its  number  of 
funds  to  a  total  of  33  (as  of  March 
31,  2011)  for  transactions  avail-
able  exclusively  on  the  Internet  and 
mobile phones; this particular service 
was launched in October 2009. The 
bank also conducted its time-limited 
campaign  of  charging  no  load  and 
discounts on sales commissions, and 
cash back campaigns to clients.

As  for  insurance  products,  we 
respond to our clients’ needs by selling 
level-premium life insurance products at all branches in Japan 
and enabling those clients having difficulties coming down to 
our branch during regular banking hours to request information 
materials and application forms through ATMs (started from 
August 2010) and the Internet (started from February 2011). 
In addition, the bank  began offering four new types of over-
the-counter products: 
1) pension-type insur-
ance which switches 
to a stable investment 
strategy after securing 
the  targeted  profit; 
2) a whole-life policy, 
of  which  the  insured 
increases 
amount

proportionally  to  fund  performance  while  guaranteeing  a 
minimum death coverage; 3) whole-life insurance with an option 
enabling conversion to medical or nursing-care insurance; and 
4) whole-life insurance with added-coverage for cancer surger-
ies and hospitalization.

As  for  Japanese  government 
bonds for individuals, SMBC started 
offering three-year maturity products 
in June 2010 in addition to our existing 
five- and ten-year maturity products.
  We  continue  to  offer  a  wide 
range  of  foreign-currency  and  yen-
denominated  bonds  appropriate 
for our clients’ needs. In April 2010, 
SMBC  began  financial  instruments 
intermediary services for individuals as 
an agent of SMBC Nikko Securities, in addition to SMBC Friend 
Securities. In January 2011, the operations of SMBC Friend 
Securities related to SMBC’s financial instruments intermediary 
and other services were integrated into those of SMBC Nikko 
Securities.
  We believe that it is important to support and follow up our 
clients even after they have purchased our products. As part of 
our fulfilling this commitment, we take numerous measures to 
keep clients up-to-date with new developments — by having 
seminars regarding funds performances, monthly issuances 
of special market reports, and mailing of financial statements 
detailing assets performance.

Loan Business
We develop new products and services to enable us to respond to 
the diversified needs of our clients. For instance, our housing loan 
with insurance for major serious illnesses had an outstanding loan 
balance of ¥1,750 billion, as of March 31, 2011.

In September 2010, SMBC began accepting accelerated 
full-sum repayments of housing loans through the SMBC Direct 
online  banking  service.  With  this  service,  over-the-counter 
procedures can now be completed at home or other remote 
locations. This service significantly contributed to maximizing 
convenience for our clients.

Consequently, we are accommodating the diverse needs 
of our housing loan clients via the Internet along with existing 
services for partial early repayment and the option to change the 
interest rate to either floating or fixed rates.

Following the enactment of the “Act Concerning Temporary 
Measures to Facilitate Financing for Small and Medium-Sized 
Enterprises, etc.,” we appointed specialists to provide consulta-
tions and assistance with clients having difficulties in repaying 
their mortgage at all bank branches as well as at the nine special 
Loan Support Offices located nationwide.
  We will continue to provide more personalized and expe-
dited support and services for such clients.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Settlement and Consumer 
Finance Business
In March 2011, we began offering a 
new service “SMBC First Pack Debut,” 
which was especially designed for stu-
dents between the ages of 18 and 23, 
under our settlement service platform 
of “SMBC First Pack.” When students 
make automatic bill payments for their 
mobile phones using the account reg-
istered with the service, they are not 
charged in the month following the next month, for after busi-
ness hours service fees for ATMs located at domestic branches 
and @BΛNK ATMs installed at convenience stores and other

and lifestyle of students.

The iD* credit service, which was created as a result of the 
strategic alliance of SMFG and NTT DoCoMo, Inc., continues to 
further evolve. As of March 31, 2011, there were approximately 
15.84 million subscribers for this service and approximately 
510,000 terminals for such credit services installed on the prem-
ises of affiliated merchants.

As of the end of March 2011, there were 719 automatic 
contract machines for our consumer finance business with 
Promise Co., Ltd., and the outstanding balance of card loans 
made by the bank and guaranteed by Promise was approxi-
mately ¥340 billion. At-Loan Co., Ltd., the former business part-
ner for this affiliation was absorbed and merged into Promise in 
April 2011, as part of a reorganization plan.

Transaction Channels
For SMBC Direct online banking services, we are constantly 
adding highly advanced services to meet our clients’ needs to 
improve convenience and reinforce security. In November 2010, 
we launched an online overseas remittance service for individual 
clients through SMBC Direct, improving the service previously 
offered only at our branches. This is another way for us to better 
accommodate our clients by simplifying the procedures, increas-
ing their choices and maximizing convenience. As of March 31, 
2011, there were approximately 10.86 million registered clients.

Our call centers located in Tokyo, Kobe and Fukuoka for 
our retail clients also take calls from our retail online clients who 
prefer to speak with our staff on important issues. The operation 
of these three call centers enhances our services by offering 
telephone consultations for inquiries on asset management or 
loans, as well as any information related to our financial services 
to provide the type of services best accommodated to the life-
style and needs of our clients.

◆ Joint Business Operations of SMBC and SMBC 

Nikko Securities

SMBC Nikko Securities became a wholly-owned subsidiary 
of SMBC on October 1, 2009, the milestone event which has 
further enhanced our Group to be able to offer our clients 
more competitive products and services.

Since  October  2009,  SMBC  has  been  working  with 
SMBC Nikko Securities to offer investment trust products, 
organize seminars, and provide financial instruments interme-
diary services for our individual clients.

In April 2010, SMBC began financial instruments inter-
mediary services for individuals as an agent of SMBC Nikko 
Securities, in addition to SMBC Friend Securities. In June 
2010, SMBC expanded the services’ portfolio to include 
structured bonds, and started to offer a single premium whole 
life insurance with variable benefit, jointly developed for the 
first time with SMBC Nikko Securities for over-the-counter 
sales. In October 2010, SMBC Nikko Securities also became 
SMBC’s banking agent. Further, in January 2011, the opera-
tions of SMBC Friend Securities related to the financial instru-
ments intermediary and other services were integrated into 
those of SMBC Nikko Securities. We continue to proactively 
develop both our banking and securities businesses.

Improving Products and Services for 
Mid-sized Companies and SMEs
•Initiatives to facilitate financing
SMBC believes that facilitating the efficient supply of funds to 
its clients is one of its main social responsibilities as a financial 
institution. We are making our best efforts, under increasingly 
difficult global financial conditions, to proactively facilitate financ-
ing appropriate to the needs of our mid-sized and SME cor-
porate clients. SMBC established its Middle Market Facilitating 
Financing Department in December 2009 under the Planning 
Department of the Corporate Banking Unit.
  We will continue to implement initiatives to identify the con-
stantly changing needs and issues of our corporate clients, and 
offer customized products and services in order to support their 
business development.
•Environmentally friendly products and services
In order to respond to society’s greater demand for the envi-
ronmental commitments of our clients including not only major 
companies but also mid-sized companies and SMEs, SMBC 
has been augmenting its loan products with environmental 
incentives, creating an environmental business information sec-
tion under the bank’s homepage, and offering seminars. The 
cumulative total of such loans provided was approximately ¥350 
billion as of March 31, 2011.

Furthermore, our environmental initiatives have been publicly 
recognized. We received the “2009 Nikkei Superior Products 
and Services Award” in January 2010, and the “Grand Prize by 
the Ministry of Environment” at “the 7th Eco-Products Awards” 
in November 2010, for our “SMBC Environmental Assessment 
Loan/Private Placement Bonds.”

•Information services
SMBC has been strengthening its internal systems for business-
matching, resulting in a dramatic increase in the number of busi-
ness meetings we have arranged between possible partners. In 
particular, in our “all-in-one matching” program, which simulta-
neously matches a substantial number of our corporate clients 
with the purchasing departments of major corporations, we 
have enhanced our corporate client information database. This 
enables us to supply our corporate clients with more information 
on the purchasing needs of major corporations.
  We also held the SMFG Environmental Business Forum in 
December 2010 which formed a part of “Eco-Products 2010” in 
Tokyo Big Sight, for the promotion of environmental businesses. 
At this annual event, we arranged approximately 670 business 
meetings to match the increasing environmental procurement 

needs  of  major  corporations  with 
the growing needs of SMEs for new 
distribution channels.

At this event, our Group compa-
nies exhibited diverse environmental 
solutions, and also held panel dis-
cussions and provided environmental 
information.

Furthermore, 

the  bank  and 
SMBC Nikko Securities installed the 
“IPO  Navigator”  in  July  2010,  an 
online information service offered for 
free of charge to registered clients 
considering an IPO. Information nec-
essary for an IPO is provided by the 
platform, of which the contents are 
supplied by nine advisory companies 
and two sponsor companies. During 
its  six  months  of  operation,  more 
than 260 companies have registered 
with this program. SMBC and SMBC 
Nikko Securities continue to support 
our clients planning for an IPO.

Enhancing Services for Globalizing 
Corporations
An increasing number of our corporate clients are expanding 
their businesses overseas, and are faced with the growing need 
to address such issues as differences in business practices; 
cultures; legal, accounting, and taxation systems, the interpreta-
tion of these systems; as well as funding.

SMBC established its Global Advisory Department (GAD) 
to specifically assist the development of solutions for the cross-
border  issues  of  globally  expanding  clients.  GAD  works  to 
further strengthen our domestic and overseas support for the 
overseas business operations of such companies.
  We provide overseas business-related seminars on Brazil 
and global issues, not limited to China or other Asian markets, 
and also provide the latest overseas economic or market infor-
mation, including local conditions, details of regulations, industry 
trends, and other relevant issues, for our clients considering to 
newly develop their businesses overseas; and we also provide 
high quality support and solutions for the needs of our clients 
who have already established their business operations over-
seas, including business development and reorganization. We 
are constantly enhancing our system to support the globalization 
of our clients’ businesses.

Strengthening Measures for Greater China
As the economic integration continues in Greater China (PRC, 
Hong Kong and Taiwan), inter-company trading and funding 
have been actively increasing. A substantial number of Japanese 
companies have expanded business into China, and it is antici-
pated that this entry and expansion by such companies into the 

10

SMFG 2011

 
 
 
 
growing Chinese market will further accelerate in the foreseeable 
future.

In order to more effectively meet the needs of such clients 
whose business straddles the Japanese and Chinese markets, 
in fiscal 2010, SMBC transferred its business responsibilities 
for the planning, promotion, and management of transactions 
between its Chinese subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking 
Corporations (China) Limited and Japanese corporate clients 
from the International Banking Unit to the Corporate Banking 
Unit.  The  same  was  done  for  the  Hong  Kong  and  Taipei 
branches in fiscal 2011.

The  Shenzhen  Branch  of  Sumitomo  Mitsui  Banking 
Corporation (China) Limited began its business operations on 
May 20, 2011. Under the Group network, including branches in 
Hong Kong and Guangzhou, we are strengthening our support 
for our clients’ businesses in southern China.

In  banking  operations,  we  established  a  “Fund  for 
Supporting Companies Expanding their Business Operations in 
China” in cooperation with Chinese companies in fiscal 2010. 
The fund provides for equity and other types of investments for 
Japanese companies expanding their businesses into China. 
We also support such Japanese companies in Japan and China 
by providing them with necessary assistance and support for 
the globalization of their businesses. We continue to compre-
hensively provide our customized services to our clients by 
supporting their head offices in Japan and business operations 
in China.

Enhanced Initiatives for the Public and 
Financial Sectors
As our Japanese economy continuously evolves, the responsibil-
ities of local government and financial institutions are becoming 
more sophisticated and diversified. We believe that an exten-
sive international network, and accurate and timely collection 
of information are necessary for supporting regional industrial 
promotion, attracting companies, building social infrastructure, 
creating environmental measures, and supporting local compa-
nies expanding their businesses into overseas markets.

In order to respond to the needs of our clients, the Group 
provides diverse services by using its networks in Japan and 
overseas, while pursuing alliances with local government agen-
cies and financial institutions. We executed an alliance agree-
ment with the city of Kita-Kyushu in June 2011 for the industrial 
promotion of Kita-Kyushu, which strategically plans to further 
develop its growing industries. Since fiscal 2010, we have also 
established operational alliances with the Kansai Urban Banking 
Corporation, Mie Bank, Ltd. and four other banks to better 
support companies expanding their businesses into overseas 
markets.

Our bank Group also offers diverse services for public ben-
efit corporations which are faced with the need to modify their 
business or financial strategies due to the recent amendments 
to regulations governing such corporations.

Our initiatives for the current fiscal year are focused on 

supporting local public corporations that have incurred sub-
stantial damage due to the Great East Japan Earthquake for 
their recovery, in accordance with the recovery plan submitted 
by each prefecture, including Miyagi Prefecture, with which 
we executed a Cooperative Agreement for the Promotion of 
Industry in fiscal 2008.

◆ IPO Seminars
SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities jointly held their first 
“IPO Seminar” in February 2011. The seminar was held for 
IPO Navigator members with speakers from SMBC Nikko 
Securities and the Japan Research Institute. It was extremely 
successful and attended by approximately 120 members 
mostly from eastern Japan. We also held our second seminar 
in Osaka in July 2011 especially 
for our clients in western Japan, 
in order to continue supporting 
our clients who are planning for 
IPO by providing them with high-
quality information and content.

◆ Launching of the “SMBC Food and Agricultural 

Assessment Loan”

SMBC  has  launched  its  “SMBC  Food  and  Agricultural 
Assessment Loan,” a type of loan which offers favorable 
terms and conditions based on the assessment results of 
surveys and interviews on the level of contributions made 
by the borrower in the areas of food or agricultural improve-
ments, in accordance with the assessment standards set 
forth by the Japan Research Institute. We approved our first 
such loan to Asahi Breweries, Ltd., who contributed to the 
designing of the loan by giving us their opinions.

SMBC will continue to support initiatives for “improve-
ments of eating habits” and the “development of the agricul-
tural, forestry and fisheries industries” in Japan by providing 
the “SMBC Food and Agricultural Assessment Loan.”

agement services

SMBC, SMBC Nikko Securities and Barclays PLC estab-
lished “SMBC Barclays Wealth Division” within SMBC Nikko 
Securities  to  provide  new  asset  management  services

Life Planning Support for Employees
The management environment for SMBC’s corporate clients is 
undergoing dramatic changes, as the life planning needs of their 
employees are becoming diversified. 

In responding to the challenges presented by such changes 
for our corporate clients’ personnel matters and financial strate-
gies, PAD utilizes the diverse financial products and services

follows. One such business operation is the business and asset 
transfer for which we offer our services based on our extensive 
knowledge and experience accumulated over the years, and the 
additional expertise provided by alliance partners such as major

our corporate clients. This particular business provides assis-
tance for designing the employee savings and other employee

◆ Expansion of Securities Businesses in Overseas 

Markets

The  SMBC’s  subsidiaries,  SMBC  Nikko  Capital  Markets 
Limited (UK) and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc. (US), 
have  begun  and  are  expanding  their  securities  business 
operations in London and New York, respectively. SMBC 
Nikko Securities’ wholly owned subsidiaries in Hong Kong 
and Shanghai also commenced securities business and M&A 
advisory service operations in January 2011.

June 30, 2011

◆Environmental Business
SMBC established its Environmental Products Department 
in October 2007 to promote its environmental businesses. 
It also developed a cross-organizational “Growing Industrial 
Cluster*1 Project Team” in July 2010 to promote businesses 
associated with four growing industrial sectors. It cross-
organizationally promotes efforts aimed at expanding, identi-
fying and creating mid- to long-term business opportunities 
for our clients by cooperating with industries, government 
and universities, and collecting information from the domestic 
and international networks.

As a result of these measures, a CDM*2 project, which 
we supported in Singapore for the trading of emission credits, 
became the country’s first such large project to be registered 
by the United Nations, and we provided financing by utiliz-
ing the Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (“NEXI”) for 
Vietnam’s first hydroelectric power generation business by the 
private sector. These initiatives contributed to our nomination 
for the award of “Sustainable Bank of the Year 2011 (Cross-
Regional category),” organized by the Financial Times and the 
International Finance Corporation.
*1  The four growing industrial sectors are: the “Environment,” “New 

Energy,” “Water” and “Natural Resources.”

*2 “Clean Development Mechanism”

SMFG consolidates the resources from the Investment Banking 
Unit of SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities and other Group 
companies to assist its clients with their business develop-
ment and enhancement of their corporate value by providing 
optimized solutions for the needs of its clients in areas such as 
fund-raising and asset management, M&A, risk-hedging, and 
payment and settlement.

As the businesses of our corporate clients become further 
globalized and the number of investors increases, SMBC Nikko 
Securities has began its operations of M&A advisory services, 
underwriting  bonds  and  brokerage  services  (for  Japanese 
stocks) at its overseas offices. We plan to further globalize our 
operations, and respond appropriately and timely to the sophis-
ticated financial needs of our clients.

Collaboration with SMBC Nikko Securities
As of April 1, 2011, Nikko Cordial Securities, which became 
a  wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  SMBC  on  October  1,  2009, 
changed its corporate name to SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. As 
the core securities firm for the Group, it has expanded its retail 
and wholesale businesses by closely working with SMBC. 

In the league tables published by Thomson Reuters for fiscal 
2010, SMFG was ranked fourth in the M&A advisory services 
category for publicly announced mergers involving Japanese 
companies with a market share of 19.2%. We placed fifth for 
underwriting  amount  for  the  “Japanese  Corporate  Bonds” 
category (market share of 16.6%). We continue to strengthen 
the cooperation between SMBC Nikko Securities and SMBC

Financial Review

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group (Consolidated)

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
The following is a summary of SMFG’s consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.

1. Operating Results
Operating results for fiscal 2010 include the results of 327 
consolidated subsidiaries and 47 subsidiaries and affiliates 
accounted for by the equity method.

In fiscal 2010, net interest income decreased due mainly 

to deterioration in interest margins on deposits and loans 
resulting from lower interest rates in Japan. However, SMBC 
increased gains on bonds by quickly responding to fluctua-
tions in market interest rates, and SMFG’s net fees and 
commissions increased mainly because of an increase in 
the number of consolidated subsidiaries. As a result, gross 
profit increased by ¥268.0 billion year on year to ¥2,504.7 

billion. After adjusting for general and administrative 
expenses, credit cost, net losses on stocks, equity in losses 
of affiliates and other items, ordinary profit increased by 
¥266.6 billion year on year to ¥825.4 billion, due mainly to 
a decrease in SMBC’s credit cost as a result of the tailored 
efforts to assist certain debtors to improve their businesses 
and financial conditions.

After adjusting ordinary profit for extraordinary gains 
and losses, income taxes, and other items, net income 
increased by ¥204.3 billion year on year to ¥475.8 billion.

Notes:  1.  The figures above include unrealized gains (losses) on negotiable certificates of deposit in “Cash and due from banks” and “Deposits with banks” and 

beneficiary claims on loan trusts in “Monetary claims bought,” etc.

2.  Unrealized gains (losses) on stocks (including foreign stocks) are mainly calculated using the average market price during the final month of the respective 

reporting period. The rest of the securities are valuated at the market price as of the balance sheet date.

3.  “Other securities” and “Other money held in trust” are valuated and recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at market prices. The figures in the table 

above indicate the differences between the acquisition costs (or amortized costs) and the balance sheet amounts.
  Net unrealized gains (losses) on other securities, as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, included gains of ¥1,153 million and ¥105 million, respectively, which 
were recognized in the statements of income by applying fair value hedge accounting. As a result, the amounts recorded in net assets, as of March 31, 
2011 and 2010, were reduced by ¥1,153 million and ¥105 million, respectively.

4.  Floating-rate Japanese government bonds which SMFG held as “Other securities” are carried on the consolidated balance sheet at their reasonably 

estimated amounts in accordance with the “Practical Solution on Measurement of Fair Value for Financial Assets” (Accounting Standards Board of Japan 
(“ASBJ”) Practical Issues Task Force No. 25).

3.  Consolidated Capital Ratio
SMFG’s consolidated capital ratio as of March 31, 2011 
was 16.63%, 1.61 percentage points higher than at March 
31, 2010.

Total capital, which is the numerator in the capital ratio 
calculation equation, rose by ¥304.6 billion year on year 

to ¥8,432.8 billion. This was due mainly to recording of 
net income. Risk-adjusted assets, the denominator in the 
equation, decreased by ¥3,390.7 billion year on year to 
¥50,693.6 billion due in part to a reduction in corporate 
exposures.

while enhancing the Group’s capital to maintain a sound 
financial position. SMFG aims for a dividend payout ratio of 
over 20% on a consolidated net income basis, and its funda-
mental policy is to distribute dividends from retained earnings 
twice a year in the form of an interim dividend and a yearend 
dividend. An interim dividend can be declared by the Board 
of Directors, with September 30 of each year as the recorded 

date, but the approval of shareholders at the annual general 
meeting is required to pay a yearend dividend. 

After taking into account the fiscal 2010 business perfor-
mance, SMFG has decided to pay a term-end dividend of 
¥100 per share of common stock for the fiscal year.

SMFG will employ its retained earnings to increase its 
enterprise value by aiming for top quality in strategic busi-
ness areas, and establishing a solid financial base and cor-
porate infrastructure enough to address the new financial 
regulations and competitive environment.

5.  Deferred Tax Assets
Net deferred tax assets decreased by ¥77.8 billion from the 
end of the previous fiscal year to ¥624.2 billion.

SMFG takes a conservative approach to recognizing 
deferred tax assets in order to secure a sound financial 
position.

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (Nonconsolidated)

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation
The following is a summary of SMBC’s nonconsolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.

1. Operating Results
Gross banking profit in fiscal 2010 increased by ¥76.4 billion 
from the previous fiscal year to ¥1,531.7 billion, and 
expenses (excluding nonrecurring losses) rose by ¥13.4 bil-
lion to ¥699.1 billion. As a result, banking profit (before pro-
vision for general reserve for possible loan losses) increased 
by ¥63.0 billion to ¥832.5 billion.

Ordinary profit — banking profit (before provision for 

general reserve for possible loan losses) adjusted for nonre-
curring items such as credit cost and net losses on stocks — 
increased by ¥132.9 billion to ¥595.7 billion.

After adjustment of ordinary profit for extraordinary gains 
and losses and income taxes, SMBC posted net income of 
¥421.1 billion, a year-on-year increase of ¥103.1 billion.

2. Income Analysis
Gross Banking Profit
Gross banking profit increased by ¥76.4 billion year on year 
to ¥1,531.7 billion. This was mainly due to increased gains 
on bonds by quickly responding to fluctuations in market 
interest rates, and higher total fees for loan-related services 
at the International Banking Unit.

Expenses
Expenses (excluding nonrecurring losses) increased by 
¥13.4 billion to ¥699.1 billion. This increase was due mainly 
to costs associated with a bolstering of personnel in stra-
tegic business domains and investments made in previous 
fiscal years in branches and computer systems, which out-
weighed the benefits of ongoing cost-cutting measures in 
publicity and advertising expenses and building and mainte-
nance expenses.

Banking Profit
Banking profit (before provision for general reserve for pos-
sible loan losses) increased by ¥63.0 billion from the previ-
ous fiscal year to ¥832.5 billion.

Nonrecurring Losses (Credit Cost, etc.)
Nonrecurring losses amounted to ¥249.1 billion, an improve-
ment of ¥66.6 billion from the previous fiscal year. This was 
due mainly to a ¥156.1 billion drop in credit cost to ¥107.6 bil-
lion, as a result of the tailored efforts to assist certain debtors to 
improve their businesses and financial conditions, which out-
weighed the impact of a ¥91.1 billion worsening in net losses 
on stocks to ¥87.2 billion, due to increased write-offs.

Net total credit cost — the sum of credit cost of ¥107.6 bil-
lion recorded under “Nonrecurring losses,” provision for gen-
eral reserve for possible loan losses, and gains on recoveries of 
written-off claims — amounted to ¥94.2 billion, a year-on-year 
decrease of ¥160.3 billion.

Ordinary Profit
As a result of the foregoing, ordinary profit totaled ¥595.7 bil-
lion, ¥132.9 billion higher than in the previous fiscal year.

Extraordinary Gains (Losses)
Extraordinary losses amounted to ¥6.8 billion, a decrease of 
¥1.1 billion from the previous year.

Net Income
Current income taxes amounted to ¥42.3 billion, and deferred 
income taxes were ¥125.2 billion. As a result, net income 
increased by ¥103.1 billion year on year to ¥421.1 billion.

Net Assets
Net assets at fiscal year-end amounted to ¥5,559.2 billion. 
Of this total, stockholders’ equity amounted to ¥5,188.2 bil-
lion, consisting of ¥1,770.9 billion in capital stock, ¥2,481.2 
billion in capital surplus (including ¥710.2 billion in other 
capital surplus), and ¥935.9 billion in retained earnings. 

Valuation and translation adjustments were ¥371.0 billion, 

comprising ¥229.8 billion in net unrealized gains on other 
securities, ¥121.1 billion in net deferred gains on hedges, 
and ¥20.0 billion in land revaluation excess.

3. Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets
Assets
SMBC’s assets as of March 31, 2011 increased by 
¥11,948.5 billion from the previous fiscal year-end to a total 
of ¥115,484.9 billion. This increase was due chiefly to a 
¥11,317.2 billion increase in securities due to an increase in 
the balance of Japanese government bonds held.

Liabilities
Liabilities as of March 31, 2011 amounted to ¥109,925.6 
billion, an increase of ¥11,787.1 billion from the previous 
fiscal year-end. The main reason for the increase in liabilities 
was a ¥3,579.2 billion increase in deposits due to the rising 
total value of deposits held by individuals and of corporate 
deposits in Japan, and increases in fund procurement in the 
borrowed money and other markets.

Notes:  1.  The figures above include unrealized gains (losses) on negotiable certificates of deposit in “Cash and due from banks” and “Deposits with banks” and 

beneficiary claims on loan trusts in “Monetary claims bought,” etc.

2.  Unrealized gains (losses) on stocks (excluding stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates) (including foreign stocks) are calculated using the average market price 

during the final month of the respective reporting period. The rest of the securities are valuated at the market price as of the balance sheet date.

3.  “Other securities” and “Other money held in trust” are valuated and recorded on the balance sheet at market prices. The figures in the table above indicate 

the differences between the acquisition costs (or amortized costs) and the balance sheet amounts.
  Net unrealized gains (losses) on other securities, as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, included gains of ¥1,153 million and ¥105 million, respectively, which 
were recognized in the statements of income by applying fair value hedge accounting. As a result, the amounts recorded in net assets, as of March 31, 
2011 and 2010, were reduced by ¥1,153 million and ¥105 million, respectively.

4.  Floating-rate Japanese government bonds which SMBC held as “Other securities” are carried on the balance sheet at their reasonably estimated amounts 

in accordance with the “Practical Solution on Measurement of Fair Value for Financial Assets” (ASBJ Practical Issues Task Force No. 25).

(1) Types of Risk to Be Managed
At  SMFG,  we  classify  risk  into  the  following  categories: 

(1) credit risk, (2) market risk, (3) liquidity risk and (4) operational 

risk (including processing risk and system risk). In addition, we 

provide individually tailored guidance to help Group companies 

identify categories of risk that need to be addressed. Risk catego-

ries are constantly reviewed, and new categories may be added in 

response to changes in the operating environment. The Corporate 

Risk Management Department works with the Corporate Planning 

Department to comprehensively and systematically manage all 

these categories of risk across the entire Group.

management policies for each risk category, or whenever deemed 

necessary, thus ensuring that the policies followed at any time 

are the most appropriate. The management of SMFG constantly 

monitors the conduct of risk management at Group companies, 

providing guidance when necessary.

Risk Management System
Top  management  plays  an  active  role  in  determining  SMFG’s 

Groupwide basic policies for risk management. The system works 

as follows: The basic policies for risk management are determined 

by the Management Committee before being authorized by the 

Board. The Management Committee, the designated board mem-

bers, and the relevant risk management departments perform risk 

management according to the basic policies.

Integrated Risk Management

Group companies in accordance with SMFG’s Groupwide basic 

policies for risk management. For example, at SMBC, specific 

departments  have  been  appointed  to  oversee  the  handling  of 

the four risk categories listed above, in addition to risks associ-

ated  with  settlement.  Each  risk  category  is  managed  taking 

into  account  the  particular  characteristics  of  that  category.  In 

addition,  the  Risk  Management  Unit  has  been  established—

independent  of  the  business  units—and  the  risk  management 

framework has been strengthened by consolidating the functions for 

managing major risks—credit, market, liquidity and operational—into 

the Risk Management Unit and enhancing our across-the-board risk 

monitoring ability. A board member is assigned to oversee the Risk 

Management Unit comprising the Corporate Risk Management 

Department  and  Credit  &  Investment  Planning  Department. 

The Corporate Risk Management Department—the unit’s plan-

ning department—comprehensively and systematically manages 

all categories of risk in cooperation with the Corporate Planning 

Department. Moreover, the Internal Audit Unit—independent of all 

business units—conducts periodic audits to ensure that the man-

agement system is functioning properly.

Furthermore,  under  our  system  top  management  plays  an 

active role in the approval of basic policies for risk management. 

The decision-making process for addressing credit, market, and 

liquidity risk at the operating level is strengthened by the Credit 

Risk Management Committee and the Market Risk Management 

Committee,  which  are  subcommittees  of  the  Management 

Committee. The Management Committee is also attended by the 

relevant department heads.

■ Risk Management Framework

(1) Risk Capital-Based Management
In order to maintain a balance between risk and return as well as 

ensure the soundness of the Group from an overall perspective, we 

employ the risk capital-based management method. We measure 

“risk capital” based on value at risk (VaR), etc. as a uniform basic 

measure of credit, market, and operational risk, taking account of 

the special characteristics of each type of risk and the business 

activities of each Group company. We then allocate capital appro-

priately and effectively to each unit to keep total exposure to various 

risks within the scope of our resources, i.e., capital.

In the case of credit and market risk, we set maximum risk 

capital limits, which indicate the maximum risk that may be taken 

during the period, taking account the level of stress stipulated in 

business plans. In addition, for operational risk, we also allocate 

risk capital, and, for the Group as a whole, we set total risk capital 

allocations within SMFG’s capital. Risk capital limits are subdivided 

into guidelines or ceilings for each business including VaR and loss 

limits. Therefore, by strictly observing the VaR and loss limits, and 

other factors, SMFG maintains the soundness of the Group as a 

whole.

In this framework, risk capital includes credit concentration 

risk and interest rate risk in the banking book which are taken into 

account under the Second Pillar of Basel II. In addition, we conduct 

risk capital-based management activities on a consolidated basis, 

including each Group company.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that there may be difficulties in raising funds needed for settlements, 
as a result of the mismatching of uses of funds and sources of funds or unexpected outflows 
of funds, which may make it necessary to raise funds at higher rates than normal levels.

Credit Risk
1. Basic Approach to Credit Risk Management

(1) Definition of Credit Risk
Credit risk is the possibility of a loss arising from a credit event, such 

as deterioration in the financial condition of a borrower, that causes 

an asset (including off-balance sheet transactions) to lose value or 

become worthless.

Overseas credits also include an element of country risk, which 

is closely related to credit risk. This is the risk of loss caused by 

changes in foreign exchange, or political or economic situations.

(2)  Fundamental Principles for Credit Risk Management
All Group companies follow the fundamental principles established 

by SMFG to assess and manage credit risk on a Groupwide basis 

and further raise the level of accuracy and comprehensiveness of 

Groupwide credit risk management. Each Group company must 

comprehensively manage credit risk according to the nature of its 
business, and assess and manage credit risk of individual loans and 

credit portfolios quantitatively and using consistent standards. 

management. The department also cooperates with the Corporate 

Risk Management Department in quantifying credit risk (risk capital 

and risk-weighted assets) and controls the bank’s entire credit risk. 

Further, the Credit Portfolio Management Department within the 

Credit & Investment Planning Department has been strengthening 

its active portfolio management function whereby loan securitization 

and other market transactions are used to stabilize the portfolio’s 
credit risk for a more sophisticated portfolio.

The Corporate Research Department within the Corporate 

Services Unit performs research on industries as well as investi-

gates the business situations of borrower enterprises to detect early 

signs of problems or growth potential. The Credit Administration 

Department is responsible for handling NPLs of borrowers classi-

fied as potentially bankrupt or lower, and draws up plans for their 

workouts, including write-offs, and corporate rehabilitation. The 

department closely liaises with the Group company SMBC Servicer 

Co., Ltd., which engages in related services, and works to efficiently 

reduce the amount of NPLs by such means as the sell-off of claims.

The Credit Departments within each business unit conduct 

credit risk management along with branches, for loans handled 

by their units and manage their units’ portfolios. The credit limits 

they use are based on the baseline amounts established for each 

grading category, with particular attention paid to evaluating and 

managing customers or loans perceived to have particularly high 

credit risk.

3. Credit Risk Management Methods

(1) Credit Risk Assessment and Quantification
At SMBC, to effectively manage the risk involved in individual loans 

as well as the credit portfolio as a whole, we first acknowledge that 

every loan entails credit risks, assess the credit risk posed by each 

borrower and loan using an internal rating system, and quantify that 

risk for control purposes.

(a) Internal Rating System

There  is  an  internal  rating  system  for  each  asset  control  cat-
egory  set  according  to  portfolio  characteristics.  For  example, 

credits to commercial and industrial (C&I) companies, individuals 

for business purposes (domestic only), sovereigns, public-sector 

entities,  and  financial  institutions  are  assigned  an  “obligor 

grade,” which indicates the borrower’s creditworthiness, and/or 

“facility grade,” which indicates the collectibility of assets taking 

into account transaction conditions such as guarantee/collateral, 

and  tenor.  An  obligor  grade  is  determined  by  first  assigning  a 

financial grade using a financial strength grading model and data 

obtained  from  the  obligor’s  financial  statements.  The  financial 

grade is then adjusted taking into account the actual state of the 

obligor’s balance sheet and qualitative factors to derive the obligor 

grade. In the event that the borrower is domiciled overseas, internal 

ratings for credit are made after taking into consideration country 

rank, which represents an assessment of the credit quality of each 
country, based on its political and economic situation, as well as 

its current account balance and external debt. Self-assessment is 

the obligor grading process for assigning lower grades, and the 

borrower categories used in self-assessment are consistent with the 

obligor grade categories.

supervises, and validates the grading models. It validates the grad-

and suitability. 

(b) Quantification of Credit Risk

Credit risk quantification refers to the process of estimating the 

degree of credit risk of a portfolio or individual loan taking into 

account not just the obligor’s probability of default (PD), but also the 

concentration of risk in a specific customer or industry and the loss 

impact of fluctuations in the value of collateral, such as real estate 

and securities.

Specifically, first, the PD by grade, loss given default (LGD), 

credit quality correlation among obligors, and other parameter 

values are estimated using historical data of obligors and facilities 

stored in a database to calculate the credit risk. Then, based on 

these parameters, we run a simulation of simultaneous default using

(2) Framework for Managing Individual Loans
(a) Credit Assessment

At SMBC, credit assessment of corporate loans involves a variety 

of financial analyses, including cash flow, to predict an enterprise’s 

capability of loan repayment and its growth prospects. These quan-

titative measures, when combined with qualitative analyses of indus-

trial trends, the enterprise’s R&D capabilities, the competitiveness of 

its products or services, and its management caliber, result in a 

comprehensive credit assessment. The loan application is analyzed 

in terms of the intended utilization of the funds and the repayment 

schedule. Thus, SMBC is able to arrive at an accurate and fair credit 

decision based on an objective examination of all relevant factors.

Increasing the understandability to customers of loan conditions 

and approval standards for specific borrowing purposes and loan 

categories is a part of SMBC’s ongoing review of lending practices, 

which includes the revision of loan contract forms with the chief aim 

of clarifying lending conditions utilizing financial covenants. 

SMBC is also making steady progress in rationalizing its credit

assessment process. To respond proactively and 

promptly to customers’ funding needs—particu-

larly those of SMEs—we employ a standardized 

credit risk assessment process for SMEs that 

uses a credit-scoring model. With this process, 

we are building a regime for efficiently marketing 

our Business Select Loan and other SME loans. 

In the field of housing loans for individuals, 

we employ a credit assessment model based on 

credit data amassed and analyzed by SMBC over 

many years. This model enables our loan officers 

to efficiently make rational decisions on housing 

loan applications, and to reply to the custom-

ers without delay. It also facilitates the effective 

management of credit risk, as well as the flexible 

setting of interest rates. 

  We  also  provide  loans  to  individuals  who

makes every effort to reduce credit and capital costs as well as 

general and administrative expenses.

(d) Prevention and Reduction of Non-Performing Loans

On NPLs and potential NPLs, SMBC carries out regular loan reviews 

to clarify handling policies and action plans, enabling it to swiftly 

implement measures to prevent deterioration of borrowers’ busi-

ness situations, support business recoveries, collect on loans, and 

enhance loan security.

(e) Toward Active Portfolio Management

SMBC makes active use of credit derivatives, loan asset sales, and 

other instruments to proactively and flexibly manage its portfolio to 

stabilize credit risk.

(3) Framework for Credit Portfolio Management
In addition to managing individual loans, SMBC applies the following 

basic policies to the management of the entire credit portfolio to 

maintain and improve its soundness and profitability over the mid to 

long term.

(a) Risk-Taking within the Scope of Capital

To keep credit risk exposure to a permissible level relative to capital, 

SMBC sets credit risk capital limits for internal control purposes. 

Under these limits, separate guidelines are issued for each business 

unit and marketing unit, such as for real estate finance, fund invest-

ment, and investment in securitization products. Regular monitoring 

is conducted to make sure that these guidelines are being followed, 

thus ensuring appropriate overall management of credit risk.

(b) Controlling Concentration Risk

Because the concentration of credit risk in an industry or corporate 

group has the potential to substantially impair capital, SMBC imple-

ments measures to prevent the excessive concentration of loans in 

an industry and to control large exposure to individual companies or

criteria are consistent with the categories used in self-assessment.

At the same time, self-assessment is a preparatory task for 

ensuring SMBC’s asset quality and calculating the appropriate level 

of write-offs and provisions. Each asset is assessed individually 

for its security and collectibility. Depending on the borrower’s cur-

rent situation, the borrower is assigned to one of five categories: 

Normal  Borrowers,  Borrowers  Requiring  Caution,  Potentially 

Bankrupt Borrowers, Effectively Bankrupt Borrowers, and Bankrupt 

Borrowers. Based on the borrower’s category, claims on the bor-

rower are classified into Classification I, II, III, and IV assets accord-

ing to their default and impairment risk levels, taking into account 

such factors as collateral and guarantees. As part of our efforts to 

bolster risk management throughout the Group, our consolidated

The expected loss amount for the next 12 months is 
calculated for each grade based on the grade’s historical 
bankruptcy rate, and the total amount is recorded as “provi-
sion for the general reserve for possible loan losses.”

These assets are divided into groups according to the level 
of default risk. Amounts are recorded as provisions for the 
general reserve in proportion to the expected losses based 
on the historical bankruptcy rate of each group. The groups 
are “claims on Substandard Borrowers” and “claims on other 
Borrowers Requiring Caution.” The latter group is further 
subdivided according to the borrower’s financial position, 
credit situation, and other factors. Further, when cash flows 
can be estimated reasonably accurately, the discounted 
cash flow (DCF) method is applied mainly to large claims for 
calculating the provision amount.

A provision for the specific reserve for possible loan losses 
is made for the portion of Classification III assets (calculated 
for each borrower) not secured by collateral, guarantee, or 
other means. Further, when cash flows can be estimated 
reasonably accurately, the DCF method is applied mainly to 
large claims for calculating the provision amount.

Classification III asset and Classification IV asset amounts 
for each borrower are calculated, and the full amount of 
Classification IV assets (deemed to be uncollectible or of no 
value) is written off in principle and provision for the specific 
reserve is made for the full amount of Classification III assets.

SMFG 2011

SMBC uses the discounted cash flow (DCF) method to calculate 
the provision amounts for large claims on Substandard Borrowers 
and Potentially Bankrupt Borrowers when the cash flow from 
repayment of principal and interest received can be estimated 
reasonably accurately. SMBC then makes provisions equivalent 
to the excess of the book value of the claims over the said cash 
inflow discounted by the initial contractual interest rate or the 
effective interest rate at the time of origination. One of the major 
advantages of the DCF method over conventional methods of 
calculating the provision amount is that it enables effective evalua-
tion of each individual borrower. However, as the provision amount 
depends on the future cash flow estimated on the basis of the 
borrower’s business reconstruction plan and the DCF formula 
input values, such as the discount rate and the probability of the 
borrower going into bankruptcy, SMBC makes every effort to uti-
lize up-to-date and correct data to realize the most accurate esti-
mates possible.

 
 
(c) Disclosure of Problem Assets

Problem assets are loans and other claims of which recovery of 

either principal or interest appears doubtful, and are disclosed in 

accordance with the Banking Act (in which they are referred to 

as “risk-monitored loans”) and the Financial Reconstruction Law 

(where they are referred to as “problem assets”). Problem assets are 

classified based on the borrower categories assigned during self-

assessment. For detailed information on results of self-assessments, 

asset write-offs and provisions, and disclosure of problem assets at 

March 31, 2011, please refer to page 170.

2.  Market and Liquidity Risk Management System
On  the  basis  of  SMFG’s  Groupwide  basic  policies  for  risk 

management, SMBC’s Board of Directors authorizes important 

matters relating to the management of market and liquidity risks, 

such as basic policies and risk limits, which are decided by the 

Management Committee. Additionally, at SMBC, the Corporate Risk 

Management Department, which is the planning department of the 

Risk Management Unit, an independent of the business units that 

directly handle market transactions, manages market and liquidity 

risks in an integrated manner. The Corporate Risk Management 

Department not only monitors the current risk situations, but also 

reports regularly to the Management Committee and the Board 

of Directors.  Furthermore, SMBC’s ALM Committee meets on a 

monthly basis to examine reports on the state of observance of 

SMBC’s limits on market and liquidity risks, and to review and dis-

ered to be exposed to both credit risk from the underlying assets as 

cuss the SMBC’s ALM operation. 

well as “market risk” and “liquidity risk” that arise from their trading 

as financial products. This is referred to as marketable credit risk.

For these types of products, we manage credit risk using the 

methods of analysis and assessment in detail of characteristics of 

underlying assets, but, for the sake of complete risk management, 

we also apply the methods for management of market and liquidity 

risks.

In addition, we have established guidelines based on the char-

acteristics of these types of risk and appropriately manage the risk 

of losses.

Market and Liquidity Risks
1.  Basic Approach to Market and Liquidity Risk 

Management

(1) Definitions of Market and Liquidity Risks
Market risk is the possibility that fluctuations in interest rates, foreign 

exchange rates, stock prices, or other market prices will change the 

market value of financial products, leading to a loss. 

Liquidity risk is the risk that there may be difficulties in raising 

funds needed for settlements, as a result of the mismatching of 

uses of funds and sources of funds or unexpected outflows of 

funds, which may make it necessary to raise funds at higher rates 

than normal levels.

(2)  Fundamental Principles for Market and Liquidity 

Risk Management 

SMFG is working to further enhance the effectiveness of its quan-

titative management of market and liquidity risks across the entire 

Group by setting allowable risk limits; ensuring the transparency 
of the risk management process; clearly separating front-office, 

middle-office and back-office operations; and establishing a highly 

efficient system of mutual checks and balances.

To prevent unforeseen processing errors as well as fraudu-

lent transactions, it is important to establish a system of checks 

on the business units (front office). At SMBC, both the processing

(1) Market Risk Management
SMBC manages market risk by setting maximum limits for VaR and 

maximum loss. These limits are set within the “risk capital limit” 

which is determined taking into account the bank’s shareholders’ 

equity and other principal indicators of the bank’s financial position 

and management resources. 

  Market risk can be divided into various factors: foreign exchange 

rates, interest rates, equity prices and option risks. SMBC manages 

each of these risk categories by employing the VaR method as well 

as supplemental indicators suitable for managing the risk of each 

risk factor, such as the BPV.

Please note that, in the case of interest rate fluctuation risk, the 

methods for recognizing the dates for maturity of demand depos-

its (current accounts and ordinary deposit accounts that can be 

withdrawn at any time) and the method for estimating the time of 

cancellation prior to maturity of time deposits and consumer loans 

differ substantially. At SMBC, the maturity of demand deposits 

that are expected to be left with the bank for a prolonged period is 

regarded to be five years (2.5 years on average). The cancellation 

prior to maturity of time deposits and consumer loans is estimated 

based on historical data.

(a) VaR Results

The  results  of  VaR  calculations  for  fiscal  2010  are  shown  in 

the  table  below.  SMBC’s  internal  VaR  model  makes  use  of 

historical data to prepare scenarios for market fluctuations and, 

by conducting simulations of gains and losses, the model esti-

mates the maximum losses that may occur (this is known as the 

the actual profit and loss data is back-tested daily. The back-

testing results for SMBC’s trading accounts for fiscal 2010 are 

shown at the top of the next page. A data point below the diagonal 

line indicates a loss in excess of the predicted VaR for that day; 

however, as in fiscal 2009, there were no such excess losses during 

fiscal 2010. This demonstrates that the SMBC VaR model, with a 

one-sided confidence interval of 99.0%, is sufficiently reliable.

Glossary
1. VaR (Value at risk) 
The largest predicted loss that is possible given a fixed con-
fidence interval. For example, VaR indicates, for a holding 
period of one day and a confidence interval of 99.0%, the 
maximum loss that may occur as a result of market fluctua-
tions in one day with a probability of 1%.

2. BPV (Basis point value) 
The amount of change in assessed value as a result of a one 
basis point (0.01%) movement in interest rates.

3. Trading 
A market operation for generating profit by taking advantage 
of short-term fluctuations in market values and differences in 
value among markets.

4. Banking 
A market operation for generating profit through management 
of interest rates, terms, and other aspects of assets (loans, 
bonds, etc.) and liabilities (deposits, etc.).

(d) Outlier Framework

In the event the economic value of a bank declines by more than 

20% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (“outlier ratio”) as a result 

of interest rate shocks, the bank falls into the category of “outlier 

bank,” as stipulated under the Second Pillar of Basel II.

As of March 31, 2011, the outlier ratio was around 8%, sub-

stantially below the 20% criterion.

(e) Managing Risk of Stocks Held for Strategic Purposes

The Corporate Risk Management Department establishes limits on 

allowable risk for strategic equity investments, and monitors the 

observance of those limits in order to control stock price fluctuation 

risk.

SMBC has been reducing its strategic equity investments and 

the outstanding amount is now significantly below the amount 

of Tier I capital, the maximum level permitted under the Act on 

Financial Institutions (,etc.)’, Limits for Share, etc. Holdings.

(2) Liquidity Risk Management
At  SMBC,  liquidity  risk  is  regarded  as  one  of  the  major  risks. 

SMBC’s liquidity risk management is based on a framework con-

sisting of setting funding gap limits and guidelines, maintaining 

highly liquid supplementary funding sources, and establishing 

contingency plans. 

So as not to be overly dependent on short-term market-based 

funding to cover cash outflows, SMBC sets funding gap limits and 

guidelines. The funding gap limits and guidelines are set Bank-wide 

and for each region, taking into account cash management plans, 

external environment, funding status, characteristics of local cur-

rency and other factors. Additionally, a risk limit is set by currency as 

needed to achieve more rigorous management.

Operational Risk
1.  Basic Approach to Operational Risk 

Management

(1) Definition of Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed 

internal processes, people and systems or from external events. 

Specifically, Basel II—which, in addition to processing risk and sys-

tem risk, also covers legal risk, personnel risk, and physical asset 

risk—defines the following seven types of events that may lead to 

the risk of loss: (1) internal fraud, (2) external fraud, (3) employment 

practices and workplace safety, (4) clients, products and business 

practices, (5) damage to physical assets, (6) business disruption 

and  system  failures,  and  (7)  execution,  delivery,  and  process 

management. 

(2)  Fundamental Principles for Operational Risk Management 
SMFG and SMBC have drawn up the Regulations on Operational 

Risk Management to define the basic rules to be observed in the 

conduct of operational risk management across the entire Group. 

Under these regulations, SMFG and SMBC have been working to 

enhance the operational risk management framework across the 

whole Group by establishing an effective system for identification, 

assessment, controlling, and monitoring of material operational risk 

and a system for executing contingency and business continuity 

plans. In view of the inclusion of operational risk in the framework 

of the capital adequacy requirements of Basel II, SMFG has been 

working  on  a  continuing  basis  to  create  a  more  sophisticated 

quantification model and to enhance operational risk management 

throughout the Group.

■SMBC’s Operational Risk Management System

2. Operational Risk Management System
SMFG has designed and implemented an operational risk manage-

ment framework for Groupwide basic policies for risk management.

At SMBC, the Management Committee makes decisions on 

important matters such as basic policies for operational risk man-

agement, and these decisions are authorized by the SMBC Board 

of Directors. In addition, SMBC has established its Operational Risk 

Management Department, within the Corporate Risk Management 

Department as an integrated operational risk management depart-

ment. This department works together with other departments 

responsible for controlling processing risk and system risk.

The operational risk management framework is described in 

more detail in the later part of this section, but it can be outlined as 

follows: operational risk is managed by (1) collecting and analyzing 

internal loss data, and (2) comprehensively identifying risk scenarios 

in each business process through a regular risk control assessment 

to estimate the loss severity and frequency. Operational risk impact 

is assessed for each risk scenario. When high-severity scenarios 

are identified, each branch/department establishes a risk mitigation 

plan and the Operational Risk Management Department monitors 

the progress. Furthermore, operational risk is quantified using the 

internal loss data and scenarios, and the results of quantification are 

used to manage and reduce operational risk.

The generation of internal loss data, scenarios identified through 

risk control assessments, and status of risk mitigation activities 

are regularly reported to the director in charge of the Operational 

Risk Management Department. In addition, there is the Operational 

Risk Committee, comprising all relevant units of the bank, where 

operational risk information is reported and risk mitigation plans

(6) Risk Mitigation Initiatives

Also, from the viewpoint of internal control, the measurement meth-

odology used to create a risk mitigation plan must be such that the 

implementation of the plan quantitatively reduces operational risk.

SMFG and SMBC have received an approval from Japan’s 

Financial Services Agency for the application of the Advanced 

Measurement Approach (AMA), which is the most sophisticated 

measurement method out of the three cited methods under Basel 

II for measurement of operational risk. SMFG and SMBC have 

adopted the AMA for operational risk management and for calculat-

ing operational risk-weighted assets. It has been used for calculating 

the capital adequacy ratio since March 31, 2008.

  When  using  the  AMA,  regulations  require  that  the  internal 

measurement system (hereinafter, the “quantification model”) must 

use four data elements (hereinafter, the “four elements”): namely, 

internal loss data, external loss data, Business Environment and 

Internal Control Factors (BEICFs), and scenarios analysis through 

risk control assessments. In addition, the operational risk equivalent 

amount (hereinafter, “required capital”) calculated under the AMA 

must cover the maximum loss comparable to a one-year holding 

period and a 99.9 percentile confidence interval.

(2) External Loss Data
External loss data are defined as “the information on events in 

which other banks, etc., incur losses resulting from the realization of 

operational risk.” SMFG and other Group companies collect external 

loss data where such losses may occur within the Group.

(3)  Business Environment and Internal Control Factors 

(BEICFs)

BEICFs are defined as “indicators of operational risk profiles of 

SMFG and SMBC that reflect underlying business risk factors and 

an assessment of the effectiveness of the internal control factors.” 

The Group periodically collects data relating to changes in laws and 

regulations, changes in internal rules and processes, and launch 

of new business and products pertinent to the Group’s business 

operations.

(4)  Scenario Analysis through Risk Control Assessments
Risk control assessment is defined as “risk management methodol-

ogy to (a) identify material operational risks, and describe them in 

terms of risk scenarios, (b) assess the risks and the effectiveness 

■Flowchart for Risk Control Assessment (Example)

to estimate the frequency of low-frequency and high-severity events 

for each scenario (which may be difficult to estimate using internal 

loss data alone).

During the process of periodic risk control assessment, opera-

tional risks inherent in various business processes are recognized as 

“scenarios.” The risk and control conditions for each scenario are 

assessed, and the frequency of occurrence and amount of losses 

are estimated based on them. The assessment process comprises 

three steps: (i) initial assessment, (ii) Operational Risk Management 

Department review, and (iii) final assessment. Through the process, 

the frequency of “low-frequency and high-severity” events for each 

scenario are estimated in terms of four loss amounts (¥100 million, 

¥1 billion, ¥5 billion, and ¥10 billion).

As an effective mechanism for mitigating operational risks, the 

maximum loss occurring once in 100 years (hereinafter, “scenario 

exposure”) is calculated for each scenario derived through the risk 

control assessment, and then a magnitude rating is provided by 

classifying them into five categories according to the severity of 

loss. Risk mitigation plans are developed by the relevant business 

units for those scenarios with high-severity risk identified through 

magnitude rating.

The principal features of this risk control assessment method 

(amount of loss per loss incident) based on internal losses and 

are (1) “objectivity,” which is realized by estimating the frequency of 

frequency of “low-frequency and high-severity” events obtained 

losses based on historical internal loss experience and by estimating 

through the risk control assessment.

the severity of losses based on the transaction amounts pertinent to 

By  using  the  loss  frequency  and  loss  severity  distribu-

the scenarios, and (2) an appropriate level of “sensitivity,” because 

tions, the aggregated loss severity distribution is generated by 

changes in the business environment and the implementation of risk 

conducting Monte Carlo simulations and by generating various 

mitigation measures can be reflected in the frequency and severity 

combinations of loss occurrence and loss amount which are simu-

of losses by changing the assessment of risk and control as well as 

lated by changing these two factors. 99.0% VaR is calculated from 

transactions amounts.

(5) Measurement Using the Quantification Model
SMFG,  SMBC,  and  other  Group  companies  using  the  AMA 

measure  the  maximum  operational  loss  with  a  99.9  percentile 

confidence interval and a holding period of one year (hereinafter 

referred to as 99.9% VaR) by using the four elements. In addition, 

99.9% VaR is measured on an SMFG consolidated basis, SMBC 

consolidated  basis,  and  SMBC  nonconsolidated  basis.  The 

operational risk is measured for each of seven event types defined 

under Basel II, and then, by calculating the simple sum for all event 

types, 99.9% VaR is measured for each company applying the 

AMA. Meanwhile, the Basic Indicator Approach (BIA) is applied to 

estimate maximum operational risk losses for Group companies 

other than those applying the AMA. Then, the required capital and 

risk-weighted assets for SMFG and SMBC Group are measured by 

aggregating these figures.

The outline of the quantification model for SMBC is as follows. 

First, we generate a loss frequency distribution (number of loss 

incidents over a one-year period) based on the number of his-

torical internal losses. Then, we generate a loss severity distribution

Finally,  we  multiply  99.0%  VaR  by  a  conversion  factor 

mentioned later in the section of “Capital Ratio Information” to com-

pute 99.9% VaR.

This quantification model takes into account not only empiri-

cal internal loss data but also potential risk (scenarios) identified in 

the risk control assessment. An important feature of this model is 

that it enables us to measure and reflect the “low-frequency and 

high severity” events of operational risk. Moreover, by introducing a 

conversion factor, it is unnecessary to directly estimate 99.9% VaR, 

which tends to have a lower accuracy, and stable estimation results 

can be obtained by estimating 99.0% VaR which can be estimated 

with higher accuracy.

Please note that the accuracy of quantification model outputs 

described above is secured through the regular ex ante and ex post 

facto verification processes.

The breakdown of risk-weighted assets by event type for the 

Group  on  a  consolidated  basis,  computed  with  the  previously

(6) Risk Mitigation Initiatives
To mitigate risk using the quantitative results of the AMA, SMFG and 

SMBC implement risk mitigation measures to high-severity risk sce-

narios identified in the previously mentioned magnitude rating.

In addition to the above, the operational risk-weighted assets 

calculated using the quantification methods are allocated to the 

business units of SMBC and other Group companies, as part of 

initiatives to mitigate risk for the Group as a whole.

Specifically, (1) at the beginning of each fiscal year, the opera-

tional risk-weighted assets calculated using the internal loss data 

and the scenario exposure determined from the risk control assess-

ment are allocated to each business unit and Group company, 

(2) during the fiscal year, each business unit and Group company 

work to prevent the realization of operational risk and improve sce-

nario control by implementing risk mitigation measures, (3) during 

the first and second halves of the fiscal year, the measurements of 

risk-weighted assets of each business unit and Group company and 

an analysis of factors causing the change from the previous half-

year period (including the frequency and severity of scenario) are fed 

back to the business units and Group companies for revising their 

plans, and, (4) finally, at the end of the fiscal year, by comparing the 

planned versus actual results, we endeavor to enhance the aware-

ness of operational risk, improve the effectiveness of operational risk 

management, and mitigate operational risk within the Group as a 

whole.

4. Processing Risk
Processing risk is the possibility of losses arising from negligent 

processing by employees, accidents, or unauthorized activities. 

SMFG recognizes that all operations entail processing risk. 

We are, therefore, working to raise the level of sophistication of 

our management of processing risk across the whole Group by 

ensuring that each branch conducts its own regular investigations 

of processing risk; minimizing losses in the event of processing 

errors or negligence by drafting exhaustive contingency plans; and 

carrying out thorough quantification of the risk under management. 

In  the  administrative  regulations  of  SMBC,  in  line  with 

SMFG’s Groupwide basic policies for risk management, the basic 

administrative  regulations  are  defined  as  “comprehending  the 

risks and costs of administration and transaction processing, and 

managing them accordingly,” and “seeking to raise the quality of 

Computer-related trouble at financial institutions now has great 

potential to impact society, with system risk diversifying owing to 

advances in IT and expansion of business fields. To prevent any 

computer system breakdowns, we have taken numerous measures, 

including constant maintenance of our computer system to ensure 

steady and uninterrupted operation, duplication of various systems 

and infrastructures, and the establishment of a disaster-prevention 

system consisting of computer centers in eastern and western 

Japan. And to maintain the confidentiality of customer information 

and prevent information leaks, sensitive information is encrypted, 

unauthorized external access is blocked, and all known counter-

measures to secure data are implemented. There are also contin-

gency plans and training sessions held as necessary to ensure full 

preparedness in the event of an emergency. To maintain security, 

countermeasures are revised as new technologies and usage pat-

administration to deliver high-quality service to customers.” Adding 

terns emerge.

new policies or making major revisions to existing ones for process-

ing risk management requires the approval of both the Management 

Committee and the Board of Directors.

Settlement Risk

In the administrative regulations, SMBC has also defined specific 

Settlement risk is the possibility of a loss arising from a transaction

that cannot be settled as planned. Because this risk comprises ele-

risk management tasks among six types of departments: operations

Group.

5. System Risk
System risk is the possibility of a loss arising from the failure, mal-

function, or unauthorized use of computer systems. 

SMFG recognizes that reliable computer systems are essential 

for the effective implementation of management strategy in view 

of the IT revolution. We strive to minimize system risk by drafting 

regulations and specific management standards, including a security 

policy. We also have contingency plans with the goal of minimizing 

losses in the event of a system failure. The development of such a 

system risk management system ensures that the Group as a whole 

is undertaking adequate risk management. 

At SMBC, safety measures are strengthened according to risk 

assessment based on the Financial Services Agency’s Financial 

Inspection Manual, and the Security Guidelines published by the 

Center for Financial Industry Information Systems (FISC).

Integrally Implementing CSR Activities and 
Business Strategies
CSR activities are considered the foundation of the business 
strategies of SMFG and Group companies as well as the fulfillment 
of management policies and business goals.

Completely and fully performing CSR activities is undoubtedly 
the essence of “management itself,” and sincerely committing to the 
implementation of CSR initiatives is considered the shortest path for 
achieving management policies and business goals.

Contributing to 
the Sustainable Development of Society
SMFG’s goal is to earn the highest trust of society by meeting the 
public’s expectations and fulfilling its social responsibilities. Earning 
the highest level of trust requires us to equally provide the most 
value to our customers, our shareholders and the market, the 
environment and society, and our employees. Through this process, 
we strongly believe that contributing to the sustainable development 
of society as a whole is vital for us to fulfill our corporate social 
responsibilities.

Basic CSR Policies
In implementing CSR activities, SMFG has defined CSR and put in 
place a set of common principles regarding business ethics for the 
Group.

SMFG’s Definition of CSR

In the conduct of its business activities, SMFG fulfills its social responsibilities 

by contributing to the sustainable development of society as a whole through 

offering higher added value to (i) customers, (ii) shareholders and the market, 

(iii) the environment and society, and (iv) employees.

Common SMFG CSR Philosophy: Business Ethics

I.   Satisfactory Customer Services

 We intend to be a financial services group that has the complete trust and 

support of our customers. For this purpose, we will always provide services 

that meet the true needs of our customers to assure their satisfaction and 

earn confidence in the Group.

II.   Sound Management

 We intend to be a financial services group that maintains fair, transparent, 

and sound management based on the principle of self-responsibility. For 

this purpose, along with earning the firm confidence of our shareholders, 

our customers, and the general public, we take a long-term view of our 

business and operate it efficiently, and actively disclose accurate business 

information about the Group. Through these activities, we work to maintain 

continued growth based on a sound financial position.

III.  Contributing to Social Development

 We intend to be a financial services group that contributes to the healthy 

development of society. For this purpose, we recognize the importance of 

our mission to serve as a crucial part of the public infrastructure and also 

our social responsibilities. With such recognition, we undertake business 

operations that contribute to the steady development of Japan and the rest 

of the world, and endeavor, as a good corporate citizen, to make a positive 

contribution to society.

IV.  Free and Active Business Environment

 We intend to be a financial services group for which all officers and 

employees work with pride and commitment. For this purpose, we respect 

people and develop employees with extensive professional knowledge and 

capabilities, thereby creating a free and active business environment.

V.   Compliance

 We intend to be a financial services group that always keeps in mind the 

importance of compliance. For this purpose, we reflect our awareness 

of Business Ethics in our business activities at all times. In addition, we

Initiatives for Enhancing Customer Satisfaction (CS) and Quality

Working closely with Group companies, SMFG is taking initiatives to enhance customer satisfaction and the quality of the Group’s services and 
products. SMFG regularly holds its Group Customer Satisfaction Committee meetings to review reports on the analyses of the Voice of the 
Customers (VOC), and discuss measures to increase customer satisfaction.

SMBC has created the Quality Management Department to 
establish the structure to proactively utilize the VOC in order to 
improve the bank’s businesses and management. The Quality 
Management Department is primarily responsible for analyzing the 
VOC data. Reports prepared by this department are discussed 
by the CS and Quality Improvement Committee, consisting of 
the president and directors who are also members of the bank’s 
Management Committee, and such reports are to be proactively 
applied to enhance the satisfaction of our clients and the quality of 
our services offered.

Concurrently with these activities, we have been undertaking a 
wide range of initiatives for improving the customer satisfaction and 
quality. Such initiatives include offering a toll-free telephone service 
and conducting surveys to obtain the opinions of our diverse clients 
visiting our branches and offices, or mailing them such surveys. We 
also provide training and educational programs to our employees in 
order to offer the kind of services to further satisfy our clients.

VOC Database
We record in the VOC database the opinions of our clients collected 
mainly at our branches, and we share such database within the 
bank. Furthermore, such data collected is analyzed and utilized by 
the Quality Management Department to provide guidance for our 
branches and propose any improvements to Head Office depart-
ments for the overall CS measures for the bank.

Head Office departments also analyze such VOC data and 
apply the results to make appropriate improvements in our products 
and services.

CS and Quality Improvement Committee
The CS and Quality Improvement Committee, which is chaired by 
the president of SMBC, meets regularly to review reports on the 
specific opinions expressed by our clients, and discuss and analyze 
any monthly changes to the number of opinions collected. The 
committee also reviews reports on the results of the analyses of the 
VOC, and considers appropriate improvement measures.

Furthermore, the reports on the regularly held educational 

programs or initiatives are submitted to the CS and Quality 
Improvement Committee to further enhance and establish our 
awareness of “Our Clients Always Come First.”

Corporate Governance

Our Stance on Corporate Governance
SMFG and its Group companies follow the SMFG management 
philosophy as a universal guide for Group management and 
position this philosophy as the anchor for corporate action. To 
implement the ideas contained in our Group philosophy, we 
believe one of the issues with highest priority is strengthening 
and improving our corporate governance system. 

The SMFG Corporate Governance System
SMFG employs the “corporate auditor” governance model in 
which statutory auditors oversee the execution of business by 
the directors. At SMFG, we have six corporate auditors, three of 
whom are outside auditors. The auditors monitor the execution 
of business operations of SMFG and its subsidiaries by attend-
ing meetings of the Board of Directors and listen to reports on 
operations from the directors and others. They also examine 
documents relating to important decisions and receive reports 
from the internal audit departments, representatives of subsid-
iaries of SMFG, and the CPAs. 

The chairman of SMFG serves as the chairman of the Board 
of Directors of SMFG. This separates the role of the president, 
whose  responsibility  is  the  overall  supervision  of  business 
activities of SMFG and other Group companies, from the role of 
supervising management. To enhance the effectiveness of the 
Board, we have appointed outside directors and formed four 
governance committees: namely, the Auditing Committee, the 
Risk Management Committee, the Compensation Committee, 
and the Nominating Committee. Outside directors have been 
appointed to all four of these committees to provide for cor-
porate governance from an objective perspective. As the need 
for objectivity is particularly acute in the case of the Auditing 
Committee and the Compensation Committee, outside directors 
serve as the chairmen of these committees. To ensure that the 
execution of the Group’s business operations is in conformity 
both with legal regulations and generally accepted practices, 
the outside directors have been selected from among the ranks 
of specialists (including CPAs, lawyers, and consultants). 

SMFG has created the Management Committee to serve as 
the top decision-making body, and it is under the direct supervi-
sion of the Board of Directors and chaired by the president of 
SMFG. This committee is composed of directors chosen by the 
president. Its role is to consider important matters related to 
the execution of business and to make decisions for or against 
the execution of matters in accord with the basic policies of the 
Board of Directors. SMFG also has a Group Strategy Committee 
that serves as a forum for the top managers of SMFG and all 
other Group companies to exchange opinions and information 
on their respective business plans. To enable SMFG to monitor 
the execution of day-to-day business operations at SMBC, 10 
SMFG directors (including three outside directors) of the total of 
12 SMFG directors (including three outside directors) also serve 
as directors of SMBC. To monitor the conduct of operations at 

50

SMFG 2011

three major Group companies, namely, SMFG Card & Credit, 
Inc., Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Co., Ltd., and The 
Japan Research Institute, Limited, the SMFG director in charge 
of each of these subsidiaries serves as a director (and can be 
an outside director) of these companies. 

Furthermore, to maintain the soundness of management, 
SMFG has established internal control systems to ensure the 
proper conduct of company operations following the Japanese 
Company Law. Designing and implementing an internal control 
system, to strengthen management systems, is regarded as 
a major issue, and initiatives are under way to enhance such 
internal control systems.

The SMBC Corporate Governance System 
SMBC employs the corporate auditor governance model. Of 
the six statutory auditors appointed, three are from outside the 
bank. To ensure sound and transparent management, SMBC 
separates the two functions of management decision-making at 
the operational level and the overall supervision of the conduct 
of duties by the management of the bank. For this purpose, 
the bank employs a system under which executive officers are 
responsible for operational duties, while the supervisory func-
tions are performed principally by the Board. 

The chairman of the bank serves as the chairman of the 
Board of Directors, and, to clearly separate his functions from 
those of the president of the bank, who is responsible for the 
overall supervision of the bank’s activities, the chairman does 
not simultaneously serve as an executive officer and is primarily 
responsible for supervising management’s execution of their 
duties. As at SMFG and to ensure a robust supervisory func-
tion, outside directors are appointed to the Board of Directors. 
At SMBC, three outside directors currently serve on the Board, 
which has a total membership of sixteen. 

Executive officers are appointed by the Board to manage 
the operation of SMBC’s businesses. As of June 30, 2011, 
SMBC has 73 executive officers, including the president, and 11 
serve concurrently as directors. The Management Committee 
of SMBC is the highest decision-making body at the opera-
tional level and is under the direct supervision of the Board of 
Directors. The president chairs this committee and selects its 
members from the executive officers. The committee members 
consider important management issues based on policies set 
by the Board of Directors, and the president has the authority 
to make the final decision after considering the committee’s 
recommendations. 

The  president  designates  certain  members  of  the 
Management  Committee  to  be  Authorized  Management 
Committee members in charge of particular Head Office depart-
ments or units. All of these designated individuals are in charge 
of implementing the directives of the Management Committee 
within the businesses they oversee. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Internal Audit System

An Outline of the Group’s Internal Audit System 
In addition to the SMFG Auditing Committee, which functions 
as a governance committee reporting to the Board of Directors, 
we have established the Internal Auditing Committee, which is 
a part of the Management Committee, to give a higher profile 
to the internal auditing functions and facilitate effective conduct 
of internal audits. The Internal Auditing Committee meets every 
quarter, and its members discuss important matters related 
to internal auditing based on reports prepared by the depart-
ments responsible for internal audits. There is also the Audit 
Department, which is an internal auditing unit that is indepen-
dent of the operational departments of the Group. 

The Audit Department conducts internal audits of the opera-
tions of all the Group’s units and departments to contribute to 
optimal management and ensure the proper conduct of the 
Group’s operations and the soundness of its assets. These 
audits  also  have  the  function  of  verifying  that  the  Group’s 
internal control systems, including compliance and risk man-
agement, are operating appropriately and effectively. The Audit 
Department is also responsible for the overall supervision of 
the internal audit systems of Group companies. It monitors the 
appropriateness and effectiveness of the internal audit systems 
at Group companies by verifying past data related to internal 
auditing and monitoring activities, which include inspections and 
other activities based on actual samples, and, when deemed 
necessary, by conducting audits. Based on these activities, 
the Audit Department provides recommendations and guid-
ance to the business units and departments as well as Group 
companies. 

At SMBC, we have formed auditing departments that are 
independent of bank units involved in marketing and other 
business activities. Within the Internal Audit Unit of SMBC, we 
have formed two departments: the Internal Audit Department 
and the Credit Review Department. As at SMFG, SMBC has an 
Internal Auditing Committee which is a part of its Management 
Committee  and  responsible  for  examining  and  conducting 
deliberations on reports on important matters submitted by the 
Internal Audit Unit. 

The Internal Audit Unit is responsible for auditing compli-
ance and risk management at SMBC — its head office depart-
ments, domestic and overseas branches — and SMBC Group 
companies. Auditing of operations of head office departments 
is conducted by assessing the appropriateness of all internal 
control systems of each department. In addition, audits of 
head office departments focus on material issues that arise in 
the management of specific operations and categories of risk. 
These auditing activities emphasize the verification of “Targeted 
Audit Items” across the whole of the bank’s organization. 
  Moreover, audits of branches and offices are not limited just 
to checking for control and other deficiencies but also include 
pointing out compliance and risk management problems and 
making recommendations for corrective action. In other Group 
companies, internal audit departments have been formed suited 
to the respective nature of each company’s lines of business. 

Initiatives to Enhance the Sophistication and 
Efficiency of Internal Auditing
The Audit Department has adopted methods following the stan-
dards of the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA)*, an international 
organization. The Audit Department conducts risk-based audits 
and works to apply best practices to Group companies. 

To fulfill effectively its role as the department in overall charge 
of internal auditing, the Audit Department is constantly endeavor-
ing to advance the professional skills of personnel engaged in 
internal auditing. Activities include collecting the latest information 
on internal auditing from inside and outside Japan and dis-
seminating it to all Group companies. Also, the Audit Department 
organizes training courses, led by outside experts, for the staff of 
Group companies and encourages them to obtain international 
qualifications to enhance their professional knowledge and skills in 
internal auditing. To improve further the effectiveness of auditing, 
we also take active measures on a Groupwide basis to assess 
the quality of our internal auditing in the light of IIA standards.

* The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) was founded in 1941 in the United States as an 
organization dedicated to helping raise the level of specialization and professionalism 
of internal auditing staff. In addition to conducting theoretical and practical research on 
internal auditing, the IIA administers examinations for Certified Internal Auditor (CIA), which 
is the internationally recognized qualification in this field.

Compliance Systems at SMFG

Basic Compliance Policies
SMFG strives to further strengthen its compliance systems so 
that it may fulfill its public mission and corporate social responsi-
bilities as a financial services group offering diversified products 
and services, and thereby become a truly outstanding global 
corporate group.

For compliance policies, SMFG sets forth its “Business 
Ethics” (on page 48) as the common CSR principles for the 
Group, and considers the strengthening of such Business Ethics 
as one of the critical issues for the management.

Group Management from a Compliance 
Perspective
As a financial holding company, SMFG strives to maintain a 
compliance system which provides the appropriate directions, 
guidance and monitoring related to compliance for its Group 
companies.

Specifically, SMFG manages and monitors the self-sustaining 
compliance functions of individual Group companies through 
regular meetings attended by all Group companies and meetings 
with individual companies. The following compliance issues will 
be strengthened for the fiscal year 2011: (a) Responding appro-
priately to the regulatory environment, and strengthening the 
compliance structure of overseas offices; and (b) Strengthening 
the compliance structure of the Group.

Reporting System for Inappropriate Accounting 
and Auditing Activities
SMFG has implemented the “SMFG Accounting and Auditing 
Hotline” to provide the means for individuals in and out of the 
Group to report inappropriate accounting and auditing activi-
ties. This hotline quickly identifies and takes appropriate actions 
against any fraudulent activity or any misconduct associated 
with accounting and auditing at SMFG and its consolidated 
subsidiaries.

Reports may be submitted by regular mail or e-mail to the following 
respective addresses.

Compliance at SMBC

Strengthening the Compliance System
To be in compliance with laws, regulations, and other social 
standards is basically and generally required for all corporations. 
Especially for banks, compliance-related issues are particularly 
important as their public missions and corporate social respon-
sibilities are considered critical in the financial markets.

In accordance with the basic policies of SMFG, SMBC 
requires its management and staff to have the highest values to 
gain public trust, abide by relevant laws and regulations, uphold 
high ethical standards, and act fairly and sincerely. Therefore, 
SMBC considers that being fully in compliance is one of the 
most critical issues for management to appropriately deal with 
the issues related to the Banking Law, the Financial Instruments 
and Exchange Act, compliance with other related ordinances, 
and elimination of anti-social organizations.

Management of the Compliance System
SMBC adopts a two-tiered structure as its basic compliance 
system as follows. At the first level, each department and office 
is individually responsible for making preliminary decisions to 
ensure that its conduct is in compliance with laws and regula-
tions. At the next level, the independent Internal Audit Unit con-
ducts strict audits of such departments or offices.

In order to maintain this two-tiered structure and ensure 
its effective operation, the Compliance Unit, made up of the 
General Affairs Department and the Legal Department, plans 
and implements the kind of systems and improvements to be 
in compliance, under the directions of the management. The 
Compliance Unit also provides guidance for and monitors the 
activities of all departments and branches, and assists such 
departments and branches to make appropriate compliance-
related decisions.

SMBC commits to the following activities to ensure that 

such compliance structure functions effectively.

Preparation of a Compliance Manual
SMBC has prepared its Compliance Manual by stating the 
objectives, guidance and 60 compliance principles in order to 
assist the management and staff to be fully in compliance. This 
manual has been approved by the Board of Directors.

Development of Compliance Programs
The Board of Directors develops a specific annual plan for 
compliance-related activities for each fiscal year, including 
amendments to the rules and regulations and training, for the 
objectives of the compliance system for SMBC and its con-
solidated subsidiaries to function effectively. During the fiscal 
year 2011, SMBC will continue to strengthen its compliance 
measures in order to quickly adapt to any changes in the social 
environment. Such measures include strengthening the moni-
toring of marketing and sales of risk products, appropriately 
managing conflicts of interest as the cooperation among Group 

companies intensify further, responding to amendments to the 
Act on Prevention of Transfer of Criminal Proceeds, further 
strengthening measures to eliminate transactions associated 
with anti-social organizations, and strengthening the overseas 
compliance measures appropriate for the growing overseas 
operation and further strengthened regulations of each country.

Appointment of Compliance Officers
In addition to appointing compliance officers to each branch 
and department of the bank, the “Area Compliance Officers,” 
who independently function from frontline departments, are 
appointed for the Middle Market Banking Unit and Consumer 
Banking Unit to direct and oversee compliance activities at the 
branches and offices.

Creation of the Compliance Committee
The  Compliance  Committee,  which  consists  of  cross-
departmental compliance members, chaired by the director 
in charge of compliance, has been created in order to com-
prehensively review and discuss compliance related issues. 
To enhance fair and objective deliberations by the Compliance 
Committee, outside members are also invited to participate in 
such Compliance Committee meetings.

For the handling of any complaints from and conflicts with our 
clients, SMBC has executed agreements, respectively, with the 
Japanese Bankers Association, a designated dispute resolution 
agency under the Banking Act, and the Trust Companies 
Association of Japan, a Designated Dispute Resolution 
Organization under the Trust Business Act and Act on Provision, 
etc. of Trust Business by Financial Institutions.

Environmental Preservation Initiatives

The Group recognizes environmental preservation to be one of its most important management issues. Based 
on our Group Environmental Policy, we are implementing our initiatives to preserve and achieve harmony 
with the natural environment in our corporate activities. SMFG officially signed the “Statement by Financial 
Institutions on the Environment and Sustainable Development” of the United Nations Environment Programme 
(“UNEP”) in July 2002.

The Group Environmental Policy
Basic concepts
Recognizing the importance of realizing a sustainable society, SMFG is continuously making efforts to preserve and achieve harmony 
with the natural environment in its corporate activities in order to support the economy and contribute to the betterment of society as a 
whole.

Specific environmental policies
•  We provide environment friendly financial products, information and solutions which support our clients in their efforts to preserve the 

eco-system.

•  We devise means to reduce environmental risks posed by our own activities and the society.
•  We are determined to fulfill our social responsibilities through the conservation of resources and energy and the reduction of waste.
•  We strictly comply with the environment-related laws and regulations.
•  We practice the highest level of information disclosure related to the Group’s environmental activities and consistently improve our 

efforts to contribute to environmental preservation by communicating with our staff as well as the third parties.

•  We place high priority on thoroughly educating our staff about our environmental principles to ensure that they conform to these prin-

ciples in the performance of their work.

•  We actively and effectively implement “environmental management,” and make continuous efforts to improve our system to deal with 

environmental issues by setting goals and targets for every fiscal year and reviewing them as deemed necessary.

•  These policies are disclosed on the Group’s website, and the printed version is available upon request.

Three pillars of the Group’s activities 
The three pillars of our environmental action plan are to 
“reduce environmental implications,” “manage environ-
mental risks,” and “promote environmental businesses.” 
We set forth environmental objectives for various activities 
and follow PDCA (plan, do, check, and act) procedures in 
such environmental activities.

SMFG and principal Group companies have obtained 
ISO14001  certification,  the  international  standard  for 
Environmental Management Systems (EMS).

Reducing Environmental Impact
•  Initiatives for Carbon Neutrality

SMFG sets forth objectives each fiscal year for reducing its use 
of electric power and other energy resources, and it is actively 
engaged in achieving these energy conservation goals.

SMBC ensures that its head offices are carbon neutral by 
using Green Energy and trading carbon credits*. Sumitomo 
Mitsui Finance and Leasing’s Tokyo Head Office is also carbon 
neutral.

In addition, SMBC Friend Securities and Sumitomo Mitsui 
Auto Service Company, Limited are converting their automobiles 
to more environment-friendly ones for their transport needs and 
making their transportation carbon neutral by offsetting emission 
volumes.

*  “Carbon credits” are also referred to as “emission allowances.” In this annual 

report, we use “carbon credits.”

•  Responding to the Amendments to the Rational Use of 

Energy Act

Under the Amendments to the Rational Use of Energy Act of 
April 2010, companies using 1,500kl or more energy (crude oil 
equivalent) per annum are now required to establish an energy 
consumption management system and develop a medium- 
to long-term energy efficiency improvement plan for reducing 
energy consumption by at least 1% per year.

The Group is taking measures to reduce its energy usage in 
its business operations at all locations, in accordance with this 
law, and developing consultation business to meet the needs 
of our clients for energy conservation and the reduction of CO2 
emissions.

•  Greening IT Operations

SMBC has been promoting greening IT operations at its branch 
terminals and ATMs. The new CUTE* terminals for over-the-
counter transactions, which are jointly developed with NEC 
Corporation and Oki Electric Industry Co., Ltd., have made it 
possible to convert paper-based documents, such as images 
of driver’s license and other forms of IDs into electronic images 
and to store them quickly. The CUTE terminals have reduced 
approximately 3 million A4-size sheets of paper annually. SMBC 
donated part of the cost saved from paper reduction by the 
CUTE to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government’s Green Tokyo 
Fund, specifically for the “Creating Umi-no-Mori (Sea Forest)” 
project, one of the four projects’ funds. We also donated to the 
University of Tokyo’s “Life in Green Project” for the construction 
of research facilities for botanical studies.
  We are further promoting efforts to make our offices more 
paperless and efficient through various measures, such as 
converting the records of ATM’s transactional data (called “ATM 
Journal”) and reports submitted to the Head Office in electronic 
format. These efforts will make a great contribution in the saving 
of the equivalent of 28 million A4-size sheets of paper annually.

*  CUTE: Common User Terminal Engine

•  Environmental measures taken in the Head Office building

SMFG and SMBC moved to a new Head Office building in 
October 2010. The new building is designed to achieve a 30% 
reduction in annual CO2 emissions, compared with the aver-
age office building in Tokyo, by implementing environmental 
measures, such as rainwater storage facilities, photovoltaic 

power-generation,  rooftop-greening,  motion  sensors  and 
recycled material usage. We have taken various other measures 
to achieve efficient administrative operations by co-sharing 
office spaces and promoting 
paperless meetings.

•  Eco-Friendly Branches

In order to generate new and 
creative  ideas  on  energy-
saving at branches, the bank 
publicly began soliciting ideas 
by newly creating the “SMBC 
eco-banking office prize” for 
the “eco japan cup 2010,” a competition open to the public for 
new environmental businesses held annually for which SMBC 
is one of the sponsors. Prize-winning ideas will be incorporated 
into the planning and designing of environment-friendly model 
branches of the bank.

Environment-friendly model branch

SMBC Friend Securities is converting its branches to more 
environment-friendly  ones  at  the  time  of  branch  relocation 
or renovation by installing carpet tiles made of materials with 
carbon-offset initiatives.

Managing Environmental Risks
•  Dealing with Soil Contamination and Asbestos Risks

In order to deal with the risk of contamination of the borrower’s 
collateral land, SMBC requires contamination risk assessment 
to be conducted for the land to meet certain criteria. When it 
is considered that the contamination risk is high, the assessed 
value of such potential risks is deducted from the assessment 
value of the collateral. 

Similarly with the risk of asbestos exposure, the assessed 
value of this risk is deducted from the assessment value of the 
collateral. SMBC also recommends to its clients that they con-
duct such contamination assessments. SMBC conducts such 
contamination assessments and properly removes asbestos 
from its buildings.

•  Adoption of the “Equator Principles”

SMBC has adopted the Equator Principles, a set of principles 
for determining, assessing and managing the social and envi-
ronmental risk of project financing. Its Environment Analysis 
Department assesses the social and environmental risk of large 
projects in accordance with such Principles.

Environmental businesses
The Group considers that environmental businesses are part of its core business operations, through which it contributes to the con-
tinued well-being and improvement of the global environment. In fiscal 2005, SMBC started its cross-organizational Eco-Biz Promotion 
Council, for periodical discussion of the development of sophisticated and efficient products and services for environmental maintenance 
and improvement. Other SMFG Group companies have become members of this Council, meeting on a regular basis.

Description

Started in 1996, this bimonthly magazine contains interviews with top management of environmentally advanced companies, 
analyses of business and the latest regulatory trends, and other useful information for corporate environmental activities. It can be 
viewed online at SMFG’s website (in Japanese). http://www.smfg.co.jp/responsibility/csrinfo/safe.html
SMBC holds multifunctional programs, including environmental seminars and business matching opportunities at the Eco-Products 
event, one of Japan’s largest environmental exhibitions.
Terms and conditions of this loan/bond depend on the results of an assessment of a company’s environmental friendliness using 
standards established by SMBC and JRI. Clients can choose the fund procurement method — loans or private placement bonds.

This loan offers reductions on interest rates of up to 0.25% for SMEs with environmental management systems certified by any of 
more than 20 organizations, including NPOs and local governments.
Under this program, companies may receive loans from financial institutions, with interest subsidized by the government to finance 
global warming-related capital investment, provided that they set and achieve CO2 emission reduction targets during a specified 
period. As one of the financial institutions authorized to provide loans under this program, the bank supports companies taking 
environmental initiatives.
SMBC serves clients with needs associated with carbon credits by using overseas offices for their trust operations and other 
resources to offer products and services such as introducing sellers in developing countries, providing advisory services to support 
transactions, offering trust products and financing. SMBC established a consultation company in Brazil to assist in development of 
Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects.
In June 2009, SMBC became a carbon credit trader, the first Japanese bank to trade carbon credits directly with clients.
In April 2010, the bank executed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers and Green 
Purchasing Network Association Malaysia for the promotion of environmental businesses in Malaysia. In efforts to further establish 
a more solid global network, SMBC has formed business alliances with local financial institutions and economic organizations in 
the Philippines, Brazil and other countries for the promotion of financing for renewable energy projects and carbon-credit trading.
An original program of SMBC which supports measures to prevent global warming through the trading of carbon credits while 
helping children affected by drastic climate changes through UNICEF. When participating companies trade carbon credits to 
prevent global warming, they automatically support elementary schools in Mozambique which is known for its frequent droughts 
and natural disasters, having built 17 wells and 44 toilets under the UNICEF water management and public hygiene project. (as of 
June 30, 2010)
We have been contributing to global environmental protection by 1) trading the equivalent of 100kg of carbon credits and 
2) planting trees equivalent to the number of trees planted in 1m2 for the number of individuals who purchased JGBs. Concurrently, 
we have been supporting the recovery and reconstruction of areas struck by the Great East Japan Earthquake by trading carbon 
credits generated in northeastern Japan.
The Green New Deal is an economic recovery policy based on global environmental initiatives. This fund invests by purchasing 
stocks of companies in countries where high growth in green businesses is anticipated.

“Green Bonds”, the purpose of which is to promote environmental preservation, is the generic name given to the various bonds 
offered by SMBC Nikko Securities starting in 2010. Funds raised from these bonds must be used for environmental protection 
measures.
This is the first fund in the world to invest in the green bonds issued by the World Bank (data provided by Nikko Asset Management 
Co., Ltd.)
The funds raised by the issuances of these bonds should essentially be used only for loans for projects to prevent global warming 
in emerging countries.
Furthermore, a portion of earnings from the fund will be donated to the Japan Committee for UNICEF and the Japanese Red Cross 
Society for the resolution of social conflicts around the world.
This is a contest for selecting companies which have practical environmental technologies and ideas. SMBC also arranges for  
venture companies to conduct R&D jointly with Japanese universities and the funding of their R&D activities.  
http://www.eco-japan-cup.com/ (in Japanese only)
The first new service in the leasing industry started in August 2007, which renders the greenhouse gases released by leased 
assets neutral through the allocation of carbon credits to these assets. The goal is to provide further support to companies that 
protect the environment through their own activities.
Machinery and facilities with expired leases or bought back from the client are sold by SMFL to clients needing such items. 
Through the purchase and sale of used machinery, SMFL aims to become an environment-friendly leaser committed to the 
recycling and reuse of products.

Description

This business is involved in many projects mainly for waste treatment and energy. Its objective is to prevent global warming and 
support the growth of environmental companies by creating new businesses.
In November 2010, we executed a memorandum with the Department of Science and Technology of Guangdong Province on a 
joint promotion of industries which conserve energy and reduce carbon emissions. We plan to promote low-carbon and energy-
saving industries and Energy Service Companies, including measures such as policy research for energy-saving and the promotion 
of technological transfers through collaborative model projects by Japanese and Chinese companies.
Leveraging its environmental business expertise, JRI is creating a plan for the use of renewable energy at the Tianjin Eco-City, 
China’s national project for an environmentally sustainable city. SMBC, SMBCCN and JRIS have signed a basic agreement with the 
Tianjin Eco-City Administrative Committee, on initiatives to attract Japanese companies to the project.

Rare metal extracted from IC chips installed in expired credit cards, are recycled.
SMCC is vigorously promoting the use of online account statements (credit/debit sums are e-mailed and the details posted on its 
website) as a means of conserving paper and helping cut CO2 emissions.
We issue socially contributing environmental credit cards such as “Chikyuni Yasashii Card” and “Cedyna Card AXU” which donate 
part of the payments made by such cards to environment preservation organizations.
SMBC Friend Securities marketed global environmental sustainability bonds issued by the European Reconstruction and 
Development Bank (ERDB) during the period from November 30 to December 21, 2010. The funds raised by such bonds are used 
to support natural energy development, forestry regeneration and other environmental projects selected by the ERDB based on its 
evaluation standards.
Promoting the usage of online account statements

Minato Bank offers preferential interest rates on loans and preferential fees on underwriting of private placement bonds for 
corporations which have acquired an environmental management system certification.
Minato Bank offers environment-friendly loans to clients  purchasing and installing new-energy or energy-saving equipment. It 
additionally offers housing loans with discounted interest rates to clients (a) purchasing homes installed with such equipment, 
(b) renovating their homes to be energy efficient, (c) refinancing housing loans of energy efficient homes or (d) constructing or 
purchasing new homes which meet the residential environmental efficiency standards set forth by the city of Kobe (Comprehensive 
Assessment System for Environmentally Efficient Construction).
KUBC offers time deposits, through which clients may contribute the amount equivalent to 0.01% of their deposit balance to the 
“The Mother Lake-Shiga Support Fund,” which preserves the natural environment of Lake Biwa. In April 2011, KUBC donated 
¥5.25 million to this Fund, which is equivalent to 0.01% of ¥52.5 billion, the outstanding balance as of February 28, 2011.
The bank has launched a campaign in which applicable interest rate cuts of up to 1.0% a year are offered to clients who take out 
housing loans for residences in which solar power generation facilities are installed.
When clients purchase homes which are installed with designated solar power generation systems and located in the subdivisions 
in the Katata district of Otsu-city, Shiga Prefecture, a certain percentage of the housing loan amount is donated to the Ohmi 
Environment Conservation Foundation, the activities of which are dedicated to the preservation of Lake Biwa.

Environmental Business Forum at Eco-Products 
2010

Issuance of “Cedyna Card AXU” to preserve 
bio-diversity

In order to preserve bio-diversity, we issued the Cedyna Card 
AXU in May 2010, through which environmental contributions 
may be made. In addition to the basic functions of regular 
credit cards, this Card offers ecological options including 
participation  in  ecological  nature  tours  under  the  “Green 
Selection” program; shop LOHAS products and services with 
the concept of preserving the environment and bio-diversity, 
under the “Green Shopping” program; and donates 0.1% of 
the payments made by the Card to environment preserva-
tion organizations under the “Green Contribution” program; to 
make the usage of this Card more interesting and enjoyable.

The Eco-Products exhibition, held each December, is one of 
Japan’s largest environmental exhibitions. Following last year’s 
event, SMFG again held the SMFG Environmental Business 
Forum, comprising various environmental business events.

SMFG  conducted  business  matching,  set  up  booths 
having catalogs available, and offered lectures, seminars, and 
other programs, targeting different types of stakeholders, such 
as those who are planning to newly enter the environmental 
business field, considering expanding their marketing chan-
nels, and reviewing the information collected. By offering such 
opportunities, SMFG provided forums for the representatives of 
companies in the environmental field to expand their network 
business contacts and exchange information.

During the three-day exhibition, we held 17 seminars on 
various topics, as well as two panel discussions. 659 busi-
ness matchings were arranged, and 28 companies had booths 
marketing their products and services. 
  Consequently,  the  SMFG 
Environmental Business Forum 
hosted a substantial number of 
business  negotiations  for  new 
environmental  technologies, 
products, and services.

Social Contribution Activities

Fundamental approach on social contribution activities
SMFG and its Group companies, in consideration of the public service nature of the financial services industry, recognize the 
importance of using business operations to contribute to the development of society. In addition to this contribution to society 
through day-to-day business operations, we must also act as a responsible corporate citizen by engaging in activities that help 
lay the foundations for a better society in the future. In the spirit of corporate citizenship, SMFG and its Group companies will fulfill 
their social obligations through a broad range of activities.

Policy on social contribution activities
SMFG and its Group companies understand their role as responsible corporate citizens, and undertake activities that contribute to the 
realization of a prosperous and sustainable society. We maintain an extensive social contribution program by planning and executing 
social contribution activities at the corporate level, as well as by encouraging employees to volunteer for worthwhile activities.

The central elements of our social contribution activities
SMFG and its Group companies position the following four sectors as the core fields for social contributions: 1) social welfare; 
2) local and international communities; 3) the environment; and 4) culture, the arts and education.

Activities Contributing to Social Welfare

• Collection and Donation of Mistakenly-Written Postage-

Prepaid Postcards and Recycling of Other Used Items
SMFG collects mistakenly-written postage-prepaid postcards 
from  Group  employees,  exchanges  them  for  new  postage 
stamps, and donates the stamps to volunteer organizations to 
help them cover their postage costs. In addition, SMBC col-
lects unused prepaid telephone cards, Sumitomo Mitsui Card, 
Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing (SMFL) and Cedyna 
collect PET bottle caps, and Sumitomo Mitsui Card and SMBC 
Friend Securities collect used postage stamps from employees, 
donating them to volunteer organizations. SMBC and SMBC 
Friend Securities also donate products given by the companies 
to their shareholders.

• Sign-Language Courses

In order to enhance the capabilities of our employees allowing 
them to better communicate and offer personalized services 
to assist the hearing-challenged, sign-language workshops are 
held annually by SMBC. In fiscal 2010, the bank also organized

Emergency  Reconstruction  Assistance  and 
Support for the Regions Devastated by the Great 
East Japan Earthquake
•Disaster-relief Donations

SMFG and its Group companies have donated an aggregate 
of approximately ¥600 million for the reconstruction of regions 
devastated by the Great East Japan Earthquake, out of which 
SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities donated ¥300 million and 
¥100 million, respectively. The Group also took other initiatives 
including collecting donations from employees and donating the 
amount equivalent to the donations given by employees.

Furthermore, SMBC opened an account solely for donations 
for disaster-relief efforts, and solicited donations from our clients 
and also from our employees of all Group companies, including 
the bank and SMBC Nikko Securities. Sumitomo Mitsui Card 
and Cedyna also accept donations charged to credit cards.

•Charity Concerts

Since 2006, SMBC has held 
charity concerts performed 
by  employees  to  support 
unfortunate children world-
wide. The donations are col-
lected from the audiences 
of concerts and also from 
the sales of employees’ handcrafted products. In May 2011, 
the bank delivered musical instruments, as part of its support 
for disaster victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake, to the 
elementary and intermediate schools which were substantially 
damaged by the earthquake and tsunami. In addition, people 
taking refuge in Tokyo were also invited to the concerts.

•Volunteer Activities

In April, SMBC implemented a special leave of absence for 
disaster relief volunteer activities, and in June, it began allow-
ing employees to actually go to the disaster areas for regular 
volunteering. By early July, 65 employees had participated in 
such volunteer activities as the clean-up of homes and restor-
ing photographs by taking advantage of this volunteer leave 
program.

In April, SMBC Nikko Securities also implemented the volun-
teer leave program, and in July, it sent approximately 360 newly 
hired employees to the disaster areas for volunteer activities.

In order to assist our clients affected by the Great East 
Japan Earthquake as much as possible, SMBC continued to 
open its Sendai branch on non-business days, and provided the 
over-the-counter payment services to our clients who had lost 
their deposit books, certificates or registered seals (provided 
that they had other types of identification). We also began offer-
ing housing loans with preferential interest rates for our clients 
whose homes were lost or damaged by the earthquake, and 
special funding facilities for our corporate clients.

Human Resources

SMFG and its Group companies strive to create the kind of 
work environment which every employee feels proud of and is 
able to develop his or her full potential and capabilities in. In 
the following pages, we introduce some of the activities initi-
ated by the human resources department of SMBC and other 
Group companies, including Sumitomo Mitsui Card, Cedyna, 
Sumitomo  Mitsui  Finance  and  Leasing  (SMFL),  the  Japan 
Research Institute (JRI), SMBC Friend Securities, SMBC Nikko 
Securities, The Minato Bank and Kansai Urban Banking.

Five Goals of SMBC’s Human Resources 
Development

1.  To develop professional and specialized employees who can 

provide our clients with highly valued products and services.

2.  To maintain and strengthen our sound business manage-

ment  enabling SMBC to globally compete in the market.

3.  To cultivate the kind of corporate culture which encour-

ages values of forward-looking, creative attitude and mutual 

cooperation.

4.  To be conscious of the social responsibilities of the Group, 

and cultivate the kind of corporate culture that contributes to 

the sound development of society.

5.  To encourage employees to respect their individuality based 

on an understanding of diversity and personal fulfillment.

Training Employees with Specialized 
Professional Skills
In order to motivate and encourage younger employees and to 
promote their personal development, the bank provides basic 
practical training programs in three areas: the Retail Banking 
College;  the  Corporate  Banking  College  and  the  Banking 
Operations College. Our employees are able to acquire the 
required business knowledge and skills through on-the-job 
training and seminars. The bank enhances its training programs 
by assigning mentors to newly hired employees and the Training 
Institute’s instructors to regional head office departments.

Following the amendments to the Money Lending Business 
Law, Sumitomo Mitsui Card has increased its efforts toward 
the development of professional expert employees in the credit 
business. We have taken measures to proactively support our 
employees to become licensed money lending officers by regu-
larly holding in-house seminars, educating them with knowledge 
on  products  and  other  related  subjects.  Cedyna  strives  to 
promote high professional standards and encourage the setting 
of challenging goals. Younger employees are encouraged to 
work in various departments to learn and gain business skills 
and diverse work experience. They strengthen their professional 
skills by taking programs at different levels for each type of busi-
ness and with specific objectives. SMFL has established “SMFL 
Standards,” which annually sets forth the human resources 
development plan for sogoshoku (management-track) employ-
ees of not more than five years with the company. SMFL has 

62

SMFG 2011

created the “Young Employees’ Growth Plan & Guide,” based 
on the SMFL Standards, and it has also established an in-house 
business school which supplements on-the-job training. JRI 
believes that its human resources provide added value, which 
is  translated  into  its  solutions  and  proposals.  With  that  in 
mind, JRI has established the Staff Development Department 
in the Computer System Division, and the Human Resources 
Incubation Center in the Comprehensive Research Division 
for the well-planned development of human resources. SMBC 
Friend Securities has started to offer its accredited in-house 
classes for our young employees to acquire business skills 
to enhance their knowledge and improve their skills, in order 
for the company to respond appropriately to the continuously 
advancing sophistication and diversification of the securities 
business. It has also introduced a tutoring program for effective 
on-the-job training of new employees. SMBC Nikko Securities, 
as a comprehensive securities and investment banking firm, 
is further strengthening its educational programs to develop 
employees with expert knowledge and improve their profes-
sional skills by providing its newly hired employees with OJT 
personally assisted by instructors, follow-up seminars and other 
programs such as the “new employee instructor program.” The 
Minato Bank has consistently implemented the system of the 
Minato Retail-business College (“MRC”) which improves the 
quality of consultation services offered to its individual clients. 
Kansai Urban Banking has a basic training program designed 
for the first five years of employment with the bank in order to 
develop an energetic group of employees. It has also created 
a system to develop potential mid-management employees 
and promote the careers of younger and female employees. As 
described above, each Group company is further strengthening 
its educational system.

Creating a Corporate Culture which Derives 
Strength from Diversity
•Human Resources Diversity

The Group is implementing its initiatives to create diversity (e.g. 
gender, nationality) at work. In April 2008, the Diversity and 
Inclusion Department was established in the Human Resources 
Department, and other initiatives were implemented for creating 
the kind of corporate culture which derives its strength from 
diversity.

•Personnel System

In order to motivate employees to take on more challenges in 
performing difficult tasks for promotion, SMBC has introduced a 
new workplace hierarchy system in which job rankings are more 
finely subdivided. This system will make it possible for talented 
individuals to be quickly promoted to mid-management levels. 
In order to enhance a sense of unity as “Team SMBC” and to 
achieve a proactive and energetic bank, our employees’ per-
formances are evaluated not simply in terms of one fiscal year’s 
achievements but also evaluated on their overall contributions to 
the company. 

•Developing Employees for Global Operations

In order to respond to the rapid globalization of society and busi-
nesses, SMBC is striving to develop global human resources 
with practical language skills and an international business 
sense. In fiscal 2010, in order to enhance the overseas market 
presence and internal globalization of the company, the bank 
substantially increased the number of employees taking lan-
guage classes or having overseas business experience, and 
those employed locally by overseas offices and subsidiaries, and 
promoted the exchange of 
employees between offices 
in Japan and overseas.

Discussion session

•Employing Persons with Disabilities

SMBC has established a special company called SMBC Green 
Service Co., Ltd. which provides employment opportunities for 
the physically-challenged. In December 2008, the company 
opened its Kobe Branch, and the Unagidani Office in Osaka in 
February 2009 for creating jobs not limited to the physically-
challenged but also including the mentally-challenged. As of 
March 2011, physically-challenged employees accounted for 
1.95% of our total number of employees, more than the legally 
mandated level of 1.8%.

•Providing Support for Good Work-Life Balance

The Group has an employee support program which provides 
assistance and support for maintaining a proper work-life bal-
ance. In fiscal 2008, Sumitomo Mitsui Card, SMFL, JRI, and 
SMBC Friend Securities developed their “Work-Life Balance 
Guidebook,” based on actual experiences at SMBC. All Group 
companies have already implemented the programs for parental 
leave, leave for taking care of ill children, and shorter working 
hours. Such programs provide more employee benefits than 
those mandated by law. In addition, SMBC, Sumitomo Mitsui 
Card,  and  JRI  provide  child-care  subsidies,  while  SMBC, 
Sumitomo  Mitsui  Card,  Cedyna,  SMFL,  and  Kansai  Urban 
Banking  have  implemented  a  program  for  rehiring  former 
employees. These programs assist and support in realizing a 
good work-life balance for the Group’s employees. There is 
also an annual visitation day for the employee’s children and 
other family members to give them an opportunity to see the 
employee at work at SMBC, Sumitomo Mitsui Card, SMFL, 
JRI, and SMBC Friend Securities. JRI also organizes “Mama & 
Papa Lunches” for an opportunity for employees to exchange 
information on raising children. SMBC has promoted a “Go 
Home Early to the Family Day,” while SMFL has a campaign to 
encourage employees to take their summer vacations and to 
reduce overtime work. SMBC Nikko Securities has introduced 
an online support program for employees returning to work after 
parental leave. Cedyna was awarded the “Best Balance Award” 
in 2010, under the “Promotion of Work Life Balance Certification 
System” organized by Shinjuku Ward in Tokyo, recognized for 
its diverse human resources programs and achievements. The 
Minato Bank regularly provides training programs for employees 
coming back to work after maternity leave. SMBC, Sumitomo 
Mitsui Card, Cedyna, JRI and The Minato Bank have all obtained 
“Kurumin  certification”  issued  by  the  Japanese  Ministry  of 
Health, Labour and Welfare, for programs in compliance with 
the Law to Promote Measures to Support the Development of 
the Next Generation.

Enhancing Awareness of Individual Rights
SMBC has implemented in its corporate principles of action 
concepts which state that “we will respect the individual human 
dignity of our clients and employees” and “we will not allow 
any  discrimination.”  Training  seminars  and  study  sessions 
on human rights issues and discrimination are organized for 
general managers of branches and departments, employees 
newly-appointed to management positions, and newly hired 
employees. Campaigns for creating slogans promoting individual 
human rights are also organized to motivate our employees to 
reflect and think about individual human rights and to come up 
with a slogan for the campaign. 

Kansai Urban Banking is implementing measures to further 
enhance awareness of individual human rights by organizing 
human rights awareness study sessions for each regional group 
and inviting employees to think and come up with an individual 
human rights slogan. SMFG and its Group companies partici-
pate in the “United Nations Global Compact,” and also endorse 
and support its 10 principles in the areas of human rights, labor 
standards, environment and anti-corruption measures.

◆ SMBC was Named as One of the Best 25 Companies to Work in 

Japan in the “Great Place to Work” Ranking
In March 2011, SMBC was selected for the forth consecutive 
year as one of the best companies in Japan to work in the survey 
conducted by Great Place to Work® Institute Japan. 
* Great Place to Work® Institute, Inc., incorporated in the U.S., 
is a survey organization which provides data for the annual list of 
the “100 Best Places to Work” published by Fortune magazine. 
The survey consists of two main sections: a survey on the internal 
systems  and  corporate  culture  of 
respondent companies, and a ques-
tionnaire  survey  by  the  employees 
of  these  companies.  The  employee 
survey carries a two-thirds weight in 
determining final results.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

SMFG

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010

1. Basis of Presentation
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (“SMFG”) was established 
on December 2, 2002 as a holding company for the SMFG group 
through a statutory share transfer (kabushiki iten) of all of the out-
standing equity securities of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation 
(“SMBC”) in exchange for SMFG’s newly issued securities. SMFG 
is a joint stock corporation with limited liability (Kabushiki Kaisha) 
incorporated under the Companies Act of Japan. Upon formation of 
SMFG and completion of the statutory share transfer, SMBC became 
a direct wholly owned subsidiary of SMFG.
  SMFG has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial 
statements in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Japanese 
Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and its related accounting 
regulations, and in conformity with accounting principles gener-
ally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), which are different in 
certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements from 
International Financial Reporting Standards.
  The accounts of overseas subsidiaries and affiliated companies are 
in principle integrated with those of SMFG’s accounting policies for 
purposes of consolidation unless they apply different accounting prin-
ciples and standards as required under U.S. GAAP or International 
Financial Reporting Standards in which case a certain limited 
number of items are adjusted based on their materiality.
  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been 
restructured and translated into English from the consolidated 
financial statements of SMFG prepared in accordance with Japanese 
GAAP.
  Some supplementary information included in the statutory 
Japanese language consolidated financial statements, but not 
necessarily required for fair presentation, is not presented in the 
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
  Amounts less than 1 million yen have been omitted. As a result, 
the totals in Japanese yen shown in the financial statements do 
not necessarily agree with the sum of the individual amounts. The 
translation of the Japanese yen amounts into U.S. dollars is included 
solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan, using the prevail-
ing exchange rate at March 31, 2011, which was ¥83.15 to US$1. 
These translations should not be construed as representations that 
the Japanese yen amounts have been, could have been, or could in the 
future be, converted into U.S. dollars at that rate.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
(1)  Consolidation and equity method

(a) Scope of consolidation

Japanese accounting standards on consolidated financial 
statements require a company to consolidate any subsidiary 
when the company substantially controls the operations of 
the enterprise, even if it is not a majority owned subsidiary. 
Control is defined as the power to govern the decision-
making body of an enterprise.

(i) Consolidated subsidiaries
The number of consolidated subsidiaries is as follows:
March 31
Consolidated subsidiaries ..............

2011
327

2010
307

Principal companies:
  Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation
  THE MINATO BANK, LTD.
  Kansai Urban Banking Corporation
  Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited
  Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (China) Limited
  SMBC Friend Securities Co., Ltd.
  Nikko Cordial Securities Inc.
  Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company, Limited
  Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company, Limited
  Cedyna Financial Corporation
  SMBC Finance Service Co., Ltd.
  The Japan Research Institute, Limited
  SMBC Capital Markets, Inc.

  Changes in the consolidated subsidiaries in the fiscal 
year ended March 31, 2011 are as follows:
  9 companies including Cedyna Financial Corporation 
were newly consolidated through a third-party allotment of 
new shares issued by the company. 38 companies including 
SMBC Venture Capital Co., Ltd. were newly consolidated 
due mainly to acquisitions of stocks.
  12 companies including SB Equity Securities (Cayman), 
Limited were excluded from the scope of consolidation 
because they were no longer subsidiaries due mainly to 
liquidation.
  15 companies including Soir Leasing Co., Ltd. were 
excluded from the scope of consolidation and became 
unconsolidated subsidiaries that are not accounted for by 
the equity method because they became operators of silent 
partnerships for lease transactions.
(ii) Unconsolidated subsidiaries
Principal company:
  SBCS Co., Ltd.

  206 subsidiaries including SMLC MAHOGANY CO., 
LTD. are operators of silent partnerships for lease transac-
tions and their assets and profits/losses do not belong to 
them substantially. Therefore, they have been excluded 
from the scope of consolidation pursuant to Article 5, 
Paragraph 1, Item 2 of the Consolidated Financial 
Statements Regulations.
  Other unconsolidated subsidiaries are also excluded from 
the scope of consolidation because their total amounts in 
terms of total assets, ordinary income, net income and 
retained earnings are immaterial, and as such, they do not 
hinder a rational judgment of SMFG’s financial position 
and results of operations when excluded from the scope of 
consolidation.

(b) Application of the equity method

Japanese accounting standards also require that any 
unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates which SMFG is 
able to exercise material influence over their financial and 
operating policies be accounted for by the equity method.

  4 companies including Famima Credit Corporation 
became equity method affiliates due mainly to acquisitions 
of stocks.
  6 companies including Cedyna Financial Corporation 
were excluded from the scope of equity method affiliates 
because they became consolidated subsidiaries through a 
third-party allotment of new shares issued by the company. 
9 companies including Daiwa SMBC Capital Co., Ltd. 
were also excluded due mainly to sales of stocks.
(iii)  Unconsolidated subsidiaries that are not accounted for 

by the equity method

206 subsidiaries including SMLC MAHOGANY CO., 
LTD. are operators of silent partnerships for lease transac-
tions and their assets and profits/losses do not belong 
to them substantially. Therefore, they have not been 
accounted for by the equity method pursuant to Article 
10, Paragraph 1, Item 2 of the Consolidated Financial 
Statements Regulations.
(iv)  Affiliates that are not accounted for by the equity 

method

Principal company:
  Daiwa SB Investments (USA) Ltd.

  Affiliates that are not accounted for by the equity 
method are excluded from the scope of equity method 
because the attributable portions to SMFG from their total 
amounts in terms of net income and retained earnings 
are immaterial, and as such, they do not hinder a rational 
judgment of SMFG’s financial position and results of 
operations when excluded from the scope of equity method.

balance sheets dated October 31 is consolidated using the 
financial statements as of January 31. Certain subsidiaries 
with balance sheets dated December 31 are consolidated 
using the financial statements as of March 31. Other 
subsidiaries are consolidated using the financial statements 
on their respective balance sheet dates.
  Appropriate adjustments are made for material 
transactions during the periods between their respective 
balance sheet dates and the consolidated closing date, if the 
financial statements of the consolidated subsidiaries were 
based on dates other than March 31.

(d) Special purpose entities

(i) Outline of special purpose entities and transactions
SMBC provides loans, credit lines and liquidity lines to 12 
special purpose entities (“SPEs”) for their funding needs 
and issuing of commercial paper. The SPEs are engaged 
in purchases of monetary claims such as receivables from 
SMBC customers and incorporated under the laws of the 
Cayman Islands or as intermediate corporations with 
limited liabilities. SMBC has no voting rights in the SPEs 
and sends no directors or employees. Accordingly, SMFG 
does not consolidate these SPEs.
  The combined assets and liabilities of the 12 SPEs as of 
their most recent closing dates of 2011 were ¥2,274,626 
million ($27,356 million) and ¥2,274,424 million 
($27,353 million), respectively. The respective amounts of 
2010 were ¥2,261,647 million and ¥2,261,476 million.
(ii) The amount of principal transactions with the SPEs as 
of and for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 
were as follows:

(2)   Trading assets/liabilities and trading income/losses

Transactions for trading purposes (seeking gains arising from 
short-term changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, 
or market prices of securities and other market related indices 
or from variation among markets) are included in “Trading 
assets” or “Trading liabilities” on the consolidated balance 
sheet on a trade date basis. Income and losses on trading-
purpose transactions are recognized on a trade date basis and 
recorded as “Trading income” and “Trading losses.”
  Securities and monetary claims purchased for trading 
purposes are stated at the fiscal year-end fair value, and 
financial derivatives such as swaps, futures and options are 
stated at amounts that would be settled if the transactions 
were terminated on the consolidated balance sheet date.
  “Trading income” and “Trading losses” include related 
interest received or paid during the fiscal year. The year-on-
year valuation differences of securities and monetary claims 
are also recorded in the above-mentioned accounts. As for the 
derivatives, assuming that the settlement will be made in 
cash, the year-on-year valuation differences are also recorded in 
the above-mentioned accounts.

(3)  Securities

(a)  Other than securities classified for trading purposes, debt 
securities that consolidated subsidiaries have the positive 
intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-
to-maturity securities and are carried at amortized cost 
(straight-line method) using the moving-average method.

Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates 
that are not accounted for by the equity method are carried 
at cost using the moving-average method.
  Securities other than trading purpose securities, held-
to-maturity securities and investments in unconsolidated 
subsidiaries and affiliates are classified as “other securities” 
(available-for-sale securities). Stocks (including foreign 
stocks) in other securities that have market prices are car-
ried at their average market prices during the final month 
of the fiscal year, and bonds and others that have market 
prices are carried at their fiscal year-end market prices (cost 
of securities sold is calculated using primarily the moving-
average method). Other securities, for which it is extremely 
difficult to determine fair value with no available market 
prices, are carried at cost using the moving-average 
method. Net unrealized gains (losses) on other securities, 
net of income taxes, are included in “Net assets,” after 
deducting the amount that is reflected in the fiscal year’s 
earnings by applying fair value hedge accounting.

(b)  Securities included in money held in trust are carried using 

the same method used for securities mentioned above.

(4)   Derivative transactions

Derivative transactions, other than those classified as trading 
derivatives, are carried at fair value, with revaluation gain or 
loss included in the income or loss, unless they are designated 
as effective hedging instruments.

(5)  Depreciation

(a) Tangible fixed assets

Buildings owned by SMFG and SMBC are depreciated 
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful 

lives of the respective assets. Others are depreciated using 
the declining-balance method. The estimated useful lives 
of major items are as follows:

Buildings: 7 to 50 years
Others: 2 to 20 years

  Other consolidated subsidiaries depreciate their tangible 
fixed assets primarily using the straight-line method over 
the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

(b) Intangible fixed assets

Intangible fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-
line method. Capitalized software for internal use owned 
by SMFG and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries is 
depreciated over its estimated useful life (basically 5 years).

(c) Lease assets

Lease assets with respect to non-transfer ownership finance 
leases, which are recorded in “Tangible fixed assets,” are 
depreciated using the straight-line method, assuming that 
lease term is its expected lifetime and salvage value is 0.

(6)  Reserve for possible loan losses

The reserve for possible loan losses of major consolidated 
subsidiaries is provided for as described below in accordance 
with the internal standards for write-offs and provisions.
  For claims on borrowers that have entered into bankruptcy, 
special liquidation proceedings or similar legal proceedings 
(“bankrupt borrowers”) or borrowers that are not legally or 
formally insolvent but are regarded as substantially in the 
same situation (“effectively bankrupt borrowers”), a reserve is 
provided for based on the amount of claims, after the write-off 
stated below, net of the expected amount of recoveries from 
collateral and guarantees.
  For claims on borrowers that are not currently bankrupt but 
are perceived to have a high risk of falling into bankruptcy 
(“potentially bankrupt borrowers”), a reserve is provided for 
in the amount deemed necessary based on an overall solvency 
assessment of the claims, net of the expected amount of 
recoveries from collateral and guarantees.
  The discounted cash flows (“DCF”) method is used for 
claims on borrowers whose cash flows from collection of 
principal and interest can be rationally estimated, and SMBC 
applies it to claims on large potentially bankrupt borrowers 
and claims on large borrowers requiring close monitoring that 
have been classified as “Past due loans (3 months or more)” or 
“Restructured loans,” whose total loans from SMBC exceed 
a certain amount. SMBC establishes a reserve for possible 
loan losses using the DCF method for such claims in the 
amount of the difference between the present value of the 
future collection from principal and interest (calculated using 
the rationally estimated cash flows discounted at the initial 
contractual interest rate) and the book value.
  For other claims, a reserve is provided for based on the 
historical loan-loss ratio.
  For claims originated in specific overseas countries, an addi-
tional reserve is provided for in the amount deemed necessary 
based on the assessment of political and economic conditions.
  Branches and credit supervision departments assess all 
claims in accordance with the internal rules for self-assessment 
of assets, and the Credit Review Department, independent 

SMFG 2011 79

 
 
  
 
  
SMFG

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

from these operating sections, reviews their assessment. The 
reserves are provided for based on the results of these 
assessments.
  The reserve for possible loan losses of other consolidated 
subsidiaries for general claims is provided for in the amount 
deemed necessary based on the historical loan-loss ratios, and 
for doubtful claims in the amount deemed uncollectible based 
on assessment of each claim.
  For collateralized or guaranteed claims on bankrupt borrow-
ers and effectively bankrupt borrowers, the amount exceeding 
the estimated value of collateral and guarantees is deemed to 
be uncollectible and written off against the total outstanding 
amount of the claims. The amount of write-off was ¥867,866 
million ($10,437 million) and ¥843,781 million at March 31, 
2011 and 2010, respectively.
(7)  Reserve for employee bonuses

The reserve for employee bonuses is provided for payment of 
bonuses to employees, in the amount of estimated bonuses, 
which are attributable to the respective fiscal year.

(8)  Reserve for executive bonuses

The reserve for executive bonuses is provided for payment of 
bonuses to executives, in the amount of estimated bonuses, 
which are attributable to the respective fiscal year.

(9)  Reserve for employee retirement benefits

The reserve for employee retirement benefits is provided for 
payment of retirement benefits to employees, in the amount 
deemed accrued at the fiscal year-end, based on the projected 
retirement benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets 
at the fiscal year-end.
  Unrecognized prior service cost is amortized using the 
straight-line method, primarily over 9 years, over the employ-
ees’ estimated average remaining service period from the fiscal 
year of its incurrence.
  Unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss is amortized using 
the straight-line method, primarily over 9 years, over the 
employees’ average remaining service period, commencing 
from the next fiscal year of incurrence.
  “Partial Amendments to Accounting Standard for 
Retirement Benefits (Part 3)” (Accounting Standard Board of 
Japan (“ASBJ”) Statement No. 19, issued on July 31, 2008) 
became effective from the fiscal year beginning on and after 
April 1, 2009. Accordingly, SMFG has applied them from the 
fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. This accounting method 
has no impact on the consolidated financial statements for the 
fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
(10) Reserve for executive retirement benefits

The reserve for executive retirement benefits is provided for 
payment of retirement benefits to directors, corporate auditors 
and other executive officers, in the amount deemed accrued at 
the fiscal year-end based on the internal regulations. 

(11) Reserve for point service program

The reserve for point service program is provided for the 
potential future redemption of points awarded to customers 
under the “SMBC Point Pack,” credit card points programs, 
and other customer points award programs. The amount 
is calculated by converting the outstanding points into a 
monetary amount, and rationally estimating and recognizing 
the amount that will be redeemed in the future.

(12) Reserve for reimbursement of deposits

The reserve for reimbursement of deposits which were 
derecognized as liabilities under certain conditions is provided 
for the possible losses on the future claims of withdrawal based 
on the historical reimbursements.
(13) Reserve for loss on interest repayment

The reserve for loss on interest repayment is provided for the 
possible losses on future claims of repayment of interest based 
on historical interest repayment experience.

(14) Reserve under the special laws

The reserve under the special laws is a reserve for eventual 
future operating losses from financial instruments transactions 
pursuant to Article 46-5 of the Financial Instruments and 
Exchange Act.

(15) Translation of foreign currency assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities of SMFG and SMBC denominated in 
foreign currencies and accounts of SMBC overseas branches are 
translated into Japanese yen mainly at the exchange rates 
prevailing at the consolidated balance sheet date, with the 
exception of stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates translated at 
rates prevailing at the time of acquisition.
  Other consolidated subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities 
denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese 
yen at the exchange rates prevailing at their respective balance 
sheet dates.
(16) Lease transactions

(a) Recognition of income on finance leases

Interest income is allocated to each period, based on the 
interest method.

(b) Recognition of income on operating leases

Primarily, lease-related income is recognized on a 
straight-line basis over the term of the lease, based on the 
contractual amount of lease fees per month.

(c) Recognition of income and expenses on installment sales

Primarily, installment-sales-related income and installment-
sales-related expenses are recognized on a due-date accrual 
basis over the period of the installment sales.

(17) Hedge accounting

(a) Hedging against interest rate changes 

As for the hedge accounting method applied to hedging 
transactions for interest rate risk arising from financial 
assets and liabilities, SMBC applies deferred hedge 
accounting.
  SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in 
“Treatment for Accounting and Auditing of Application 
of Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments in 
Banking Industry” (Japanese Institute of Certified Public 
Accountants (“JICPA”) Industry Audit Committee Report 
No. 24) to portfolio hedges on groups of large-volume, 
small-value monetary claims and debts. 
  As for the portfolio hedges to offset market fluctuation, 
SMBC assesses the effectiveness of such hedges by clas-
sifying the hedged items (such as deposits and loans) and 
the hedging instruments (such as interest rate swaps) by 
their maturity. As for the portfolio hedges to fix cash flows, 
SMBC assesses the effectiveness of such hedges by verifying 
the correlation between the hedged items and the hedging 
instruments. 

80

SMFG 2011

  As for the individual hedges, SMBC assesses the 
effectiveness of such individual hedges.
  As a result of the application of JICPA Industry Audit 
Committee Report No. 24, SMBC discontinued the 
application of hedge accounting or applied fair value hedge 
accounting to a portion of the hedging instruments using 
“macro hedge,” which had been applied in order to manage 
interest rate risk arising from large-volume transactions 
in loans, deposits and other interest-earning assets and 
interest-bearing liabilities as a whole using derivatives 
pursuant to “Temporary Treatment for Accounting and 
Auditing of Application of Accounting Standard for 
Financial Instruments in Banking Industry” (JICPA 
Industry Audit Committee Report No. 15). The deferred 
hedge losses and gains related to such a portion of hedging 
instruments are charged to “Interest income” or “Interest 
expenses” over a 12-year period (maximum) according to 
their maturity from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. 
Gross amounts of deferred hedge losses on “macro hedge” 
(before deducting tax effect) at March 31, 2011 and 2010 
were ¥999 million ($12 million) and ¥2,470 million, 
respectively. Gross amounts of deferred hedge gains on 
“macro hedge” (before deducting tax effect) at March 
31, 2011 and 2010 were ¥960 million ($12 million) and 
¥2,416 million, respectively.

(b) Hedging against currency fluctuations

SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in 
“Treatment of Accounting and Auditing Concerning 
Accounting for Foreign Currency Transactions in Banking 
Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report 
No. 25) to currency swap and foreign exchange swap trans-
actions executed for the purpose of lending or borrowing 
funds in different currencies.
  Pursuant to JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report 
No. 25, SMBC assesses the effectiveness of currency swap 
and foreign exchange swap transactions executed for 
the purpose of offsetting the risk of changes in currency 
exchange rates by verifying that there are foreign-currency 
monetary claims and debts corresponding to the foreign-
currency positions.

In order to hedge risk arising from volatility of exchange 

rates for stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates and other 
securities (excluding bonds) denominated in foreign 
currencies, SMBC applies deferred hedge accounting or 
fair value hedge accounting, on the conditions that the 
hedged securities are designated in advance and that suf-
ficient on-balance (actual) or off-balance (forward) liability 
exposure exists to cover the cost of the hedged securities 
denominated in the same foreign currencies.

(c) Hedging against share price fluctuations

SMBC applies fair value hedge accounting to individual 
hedges offsetting the price fluctuation of the shares that are 
classified under other securities, and that are held for the 
purpose of strategic investment, and accordingly evaluates 
the effectiveness of such individual hedges.
(d) Transactions between consolidated subsidiaries

As for derivative transactions between consolidated sub-
sidiaries or internal transactions between trading accounts 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

SMFG

and other accounts (or among internal sections), SMBC 
manages the interest rate swaps and currency swaps that 
are designated as hedging instruments in accordance with 
the non-arbitrary and strict criteria for external transac-
tions stipulated in JICPA Industry Audit Committee 
Report No. 24 and No. 25. Therefore, SMBC accounts for 
the gains or losses that arise from interest rate swaps and 
currency swaps in its earnings or defers them, rather than 
eliminating them.
  Certain other consolidated subsidiaries apply the 
deferred hedge accounting, fair value hedge accounting or 
the special treatment for interest rate swaps. A consolidated 
domestic subsidiary (a leasing company) partly applies 
the accounting method that is permitted by “Temporary 
Treatment for Accounting and Auditing of Application of 
Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments in Leasing 
Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report 
No. 19).

(18) Amortization of goodwill

Goodwill on SMBC Friend Securities Co., Ltd., Sumitomo 
Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company, Limited, Nikko Cordial 
Securities Inc., Kansai Urban Banking Corporation and 
Cedyna Financial Corporation is amortized using the straight-
line method over 20 years. Goodwill on other companies 
is charged or credited to income directly when incurred or 
benefited.

(19) Statements of cash flows

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated statements of 
cash flows, cash and cash equivalents represent cash and due 
from banks.

(20) Consumption taxes

National and local consumption taxes of SMFG and its 
consolidated domestic subsidiaries are accounted for using the 
tax-excluded method.

(21) Valuation of consolidated subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities of consolidated subsidiaries including the 
portion attributable to the minority stockholders are valued 
for consolidation at fair value when SMFG acquires control.

(22) Application of new accounting standards

(a) Accounting standard for financial instruments

“Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments” (ASBJ 
Statement No. 10, partially revised on March 10, 2008) 
and “Implementation Guidance on Disclosures about Fair 
Value of Financial Instruments” (ASBJ Guidance No. 19, 
issued on March 10, 2008) became effective from the 
fiscal year ending on and after March 31, 2010. SMFG 
has applied them from the fiscal year ended March 31, 
2010. Accordingly, this accounting change had the fol-
lowing impact on the consolidated financial statements as 
compared with the previous accounting method:

Monetary claims bought ...................................
Securities ..........................................................
Net unrealized gains (losses)
  on other securities ...........................................

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

  As a result, income before income taxes and minority 
interests increased by ¥19,251 million as compared with 
the former method.

(b) Accounting standard for asset retirement obligations

“Accounting Standard for Asset Retirement Obligations” 
(ASBJ Statement No. 18, issued on March 31, 2008) and 
“Guidance on Accounting Standard for Asset Retirement 
Obligations” (ASBJ Guidance No. 21, issued on March 31, 
2008) became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 
April 1, 2010. Accordingly, income before income taxes 
and minority interests decreased by ¥4,215 million ($51 
million) compared with the previous accounting method.

(c) Accounting standard for business combinations

“Accounting Standard for Business Combinations” 
(ASBJ Statement No. 21, revised on December 26, 
2008), “Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial 
Statements” (ASBJ Statement No. 22, issued on December 
26, 2008), “Partial Amendment to Accounting Standard 
for Research and Development Costs” (ASBJ Statement 
No. 23, issued on December 26, 2008), “Accounting 
Standard for Business Divestitures” (ASBJ Statement 
No. 7, revised on December 26, 2008), “Accounting 
Standard for Equity Method of Accounting for Investments” 
(ASBJ Statement No. 16, announced on December 
26, 2008) and “Guidance on Accounting Standard for 
Business Combinations and Accounting Standard for 
Business Divestitures” (ASBJ Guidance No. 10, revised on 
December 26, 2008) became effective for fiscal years begin-
ning on or after April 1, 2010, and SMFG has applied 
them from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.

(23) Changes in presentation

(a) Consolidated balance sheets

“Other liabilities” as of March 31, 2010, included “Reserve 
for point service program” of ¥14,091 million and “Reserve 
for loss on interest repayment” of ¥9,735 million. From 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, they are presented 
individually because the amounts have become significant.

(b) Consolidated statements of income

SMFG presents “Income before minority interests” on 
the consolidated statement of income from the fiscal year 
ended March 31, 2011 because “Cabinet Office Ordinance 
of Partial Amendment to Regulation for Terminology, 
Forms and Preparation of Financial Statements” (Cabinet 
Office Ordinance No. 5, March 24, 2009) became effective 
for fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2010.

(c) Consolidated statements of cash flows

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, “Other, net” 
included “Net change in reserve for point service program” 
and “Net change in reserve for loss on interest repayment,” 
a decrease of ¥879 million and an increase of ¥1,040 
million, respectively. From the fiscal year ended March 31, 
2011, they are presented individually because the amounts 
have become significant.

(24)  Accounting standard for equity method of accounting for 

investments
SMFG has applied “Accounting Standard for Equity Method 
of Accounting for Investments” (ASBJ Statement No. 16, 
issued on March 10, 2008) and “Practical Solution on 

Unification of Accounting Policies Applied to Associates 
Accounted for Using the Equity Method” (ASBJ Practical 
Issues Task Force No. 24, issued on March 10, 2008) because 
they became effective for the fiscal years beginning on or after 
April l, 2010. This accounting change had no impact on the 
consolidated financial statements.

(25)  Accounting standard for presentation of comprehensive 

income
“Accounting Standard for Presentation of Comprehensive 
Income” (ASBJ Statement No. 25, issued June 30, 2010) 
became effective for consolidated financial statements for the 
fiscal years ending on or after March 31, 2011. Accordingly, 
SMFG has applied this standard and presents “Valuation and 
transaction adjustments” and “Total valuation and transaction 
adjustments” as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 
2010 as “Accumulated other comprehensive income” and 
“Total accumulated other comprehensive income” as of and for 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, respectively.

(26) Issuance of new shares

On June 22, 2009, SMFG issued 219,700 thousand new 
shares of common stock at ¥3,766 per share (issue price) for 
final allocation by underwriters at ¥3,928 per share (offer 
price). Furthermore, in connection with the over-allotment 
of 15,300 thousand shares of common stock offered for sale 
at ¥3,928 per share (sales price) in the public offering, SMFG 
issued 8,931 thousand new shares of common stock at ¥3,766 
per share (issue price) through third-party allocation to the 
underwriter who conducted the over-allotment on July 27, 
2009. The purchase agreement for the offering prescribes that 
the total amount of issue price be treated as the total amount 
of subscription price and no underwriting commission be 
paid. Accordingly, other expenses do not include the amount 
equivalent to the underwriting commission for the offering 
in the amount of ¥37,038 million. Out of the issue price per 
share, ¥1,883 is accounted for as capital stock and ¥1,883 as 
capital surplus.
  On January 27, 2010, SMFG issued 340,000 thousand new 
shares of common stock at ¥2,702.81 per share (issue price) 
for final allocation by underwriters at ¥2,804 per share (offer 
price). Furthermore, in connection with the over-allotment 
of 20,000 thousand shares of common stock offered for sale 
at ¥2,804 per share (sales price) in the public offering, SMFG 
issued 20,000 thousand new shares of common stock at 
¥2,702.81 per share (issue price) through third-party alloca-
tion to the underwriter who conducted the over-allotment on 
February 10, 2010. The purchase agreement for the offering 
prescribes that the total amount of issue price be treated as the 
total amount of subscription price and no underwriting com-
mission be paid. Accordingly, other expenses do not include 
the amount equivalent to the underwriting commission for the 
offering in the amount of ¥36,428 million. Out of the issue 
price per share, ¥1,351.405 is accounted for as capital stock 
and ¥1,351.405 as capital surplus.
  Equity of ¥11,075 million attributable to SMFG, which 
a consolidated subsidiary and an equity method affiliated 
company of SMFG recorded as earnings under the purchase 
agreement for the offering, was accounted for as “Capital 
surplus.”

*1  “Bankrupt loans” are loans, after write-off, to legally bankrupt borrowers as defined in Articles 96-1-3 and 96-1-4 of the Enforcement Ordinance No. 97 of the Japanese Corporate 

Tax Law (issued in 1965) and on which accrued interest income is not recognized as there is substantial doubt about the ultimate collectability of either principal or interest 
because they are past due for a considerable period of time or for other reasons. 

*2  “Non-accrual loans” are loans on which accrued interest income is not recognized, excluding “Bankrupt loans” and loans on which interest payments are deferred in order to 

support the borrowers’ recovery from financial difficulties.

*3  “Past due loans (3 months or more)” are loans on which the principal or interest is past due for 3 months or more, excluding “Bankrupt loans” and “Non-accrual loans.”
*4  “Restructured loans” are loans on which terms and conditions have been amended in favor of the borrowers (e.g., reduction of the original interest rate, deferral of interest 

payments, extension of principal repayments or debt forgiveness) in order to support the borrowers’ recovery from financial difficulties, excluding “Bankrupt loans,” “Non-accrual 
loans” and “Past due loans (3 months or more).”

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(3)   Bills discounted are accounted for as financial transactions in accordance with JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24. SMFG’s 
banking subsidiaries have rights to sell or pledge bank acceptance bought, commercial bills discounted, documentary bills and foreign 
exchanges bought without restrictions. The total face value at March 31, 2011 and 2010 was ¥667,310 million ($8,025 million) and 
¥617,381 million, respectively.

(4)   Commitment line contracts on overdrafts and loans are agreements to lend to customers, up to a prescribed amount, as long as there 
is no violation of any condition established in the contracts. The amounts of unused commitments at March 31, 2011 and 2010 were 
¥45,842,366 million ($551,321 million) and ¥41,957,592 million, respectively, and the amounts of unused commitments whose origi-
nal contract terms are within 1 year or unconditionally cancelable at any time at March 31, 2011 and 2010 were ¥39,563,617 million 
($475,810 million) and ¥36,373,235 million, respectively.
  Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amount of unused commitments does 
not necessarily represent actual future cash flow requirements. Many of these commitments include clauses under which SMBC and 
other consolidated subsidiaries can reject an application from customers or reduce the contract amounts in the event that economic 
conditions change, SMBC and other consolidated subsidiaries need to secure claims, or other events occur. In addition, SMBC and other 
consolidated subsidiaries may request the customers to pledge collateral such as premises and securities at the time of the contracts, and 
take necessary measures such as monitoring customers’ financial positions, revising contracts when such need arises and securing claims 
after the contracts are made.

  At SMBC, a branch, which continuously manages and determines its income and expenses, is the smallest unit of asset group for recognition 
and measurement of impairment loss of fixed assets. Assets such as corporate headquarters facilities, training facilities, data and system centers, 
and health and recreational facilities which do not produce cash flows that can be attributed to individual assets are treated as corporate assets. 
As for idle assets, impairment loss is measured individually. At other consolidated subsidiaries, a branch or other group is the smallest asset 
grouping unit as well. 
  SMBC and other subsidiaries reduced the carrying amounts of long-lived assets of which investments are not expected to be fully recovered 
to their recoverable amounts, and recognized the losses as “losses on impairment of fixed assets,” which is included in “Other expenses.” SMBC 
reduced the carrying amounts of corporate assets and idle assets, and other consolidated subsidiaries reduced the carrying amounts of their 
branches, corporate assets, idle assets and others. The recoverable amount is calculated using net realizable value which is basically determined 
by subtracting the expected disposal cost from the appraisal value based on the Real Estate Appraisal Standard.

28. Employee Retirement Benefits

(1)  Outline of employee retirement benefits

Consolidated subsidiaries in Japan have contributory and non-contributory funded or unfunded defined benefit pension plans such as 
employee pension plans, qualified pension plans and lump-sum severance indemnity plans. Consolidated subsidiaries in Japan have 
adopted the defined-contribution pension plan. Certain domestic consolidated subsidiaries have a general type of employee pension 
plans. They may grant additional benefits in cases where certain requirements are met when employees retire. 
  Some overseas consolidated subsidiaries adopt defined benefit pension plans and defined-contribution pension plans. SMBC and some 
consolidated subsidiaries in Japan contributed some of their marketable equity securities to employee retirement benefits trusts.

(iii) Non-transfer ownership finance leases, which commenced in fiscal years beginning before April 1, 2008, are valued at their 
appropriate book value, net of accumulated depreciation, as of March 31, 2008, and recorded as the beginning balance of fiscal 2008 
of “Lease receivables and investment assets.” Moreover, interest on such non-transfer ownership finance leases during the remaining 
term of the leases is allocated over the lease term using the straight-line method. As a result of this accounting treatment, “Income 
before income taxes and minority interests” for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 was ¥10,115 million ($122 million) more than

30. Financial Instruments

(1)  Status of financial instruments

(a) Policies on financial instruments

SMFG conducts banking and other financial services such 
as securities, leasing, credit card, invest banking, consumer 
finance, and venture capital. Its banking business includes 
deposit taking, lending, securities trading, securities 
investment, domestic and foreign exchange transactions, 
brokerage, etc. of financial futures transactions, etc., cor-
porate bond trust services, trust business, sale of securities 
investment trusts, sale of insurance products, and securities 
intermediary services.
  These services entail holding of financial assets such as 
loans and bills discounted, bonds, and stocks. Meanwhile, 
SMFG raises funds through deposit taking, borrowing, 
bond offering, etc. Furthermore, it undertakes derivative 
transactions to meet customers’ hedging needs, to control 
market risk associated with deposit taking and lending 
(“ALM purposes”), and to make profit on short-term 
fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, etc. 
(“trading purposes”).

(b) Details of financial instruments and associated risks

(i)  Financial assets

The main financial assets held by SMFG include loans 
to foreign and domestic companies and domestic 
individuals, and securities such as bonds (government 
and corporate bonds) and stocks (foreign and domestic 
stocks), etc. Bonds such as government bonds are held 
for both trading and ALM purposes, and certain bonds 
are held as held-to-maturity securities. Stocks are held 
mainly for strategic purposes. These assets expose 
SMFG to credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. 
Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from nonperfor-
mance of obligations by the borrower or issuer due to 
factors such as deterioration in the borrower’s/issuer’s 
financial conditions. Market risk is the risk stemming 
from fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates, or 
share prices. Liquidity risk is the risk arising from 
difficulty executing transactions in desired quantities 
at appropriate prices due to low market liquidity. These 
risks are properly monitored and managed based on 
“(c) Risk management framework for financial instru-
ments” below.
(ii) Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities of SMFG include borrowed money 
and bonds, etc. in addition to deposits. Deposits mainly 
comprise deposits of domestic and foreign companies 
and domestic individuals. Borrowed money and bonds 
include subordinated borrowings and subordinated 
bonds. Also, financial liabilities, like financial assets, 
expose SMFG to not only market risk but also funding 
liquidity risk: the risk of SMFG not being able to 
raise funds due to market turmoil, deterioration in 
its creditworthiness or other factors. These risks are 
properly monitored and managed based on “(c) Risk 
management framework for financial instruments” 
below.

SMFG 2011

(iii) Derivative transactions

Derivatives handled by SMFG include foreign exchange 
futures; futures, forwards, swaps and options related to 
interest rates, currencies, equities, bonds and commodi-
ties; and credit and weather derivatives.
  Major risks associated with derivatives include 
market risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk arising 
from nonperformance of contractual obligations due to 
deterioration in the counterparty’s financial conditions. 
These risks are properly monitored and managed based 
on “(c) Risk management framework for financial 
instruments” below.
  Hedge accounting is applied to derivative transac-
tions executed for ALM purposes, as necessary. Hedging 
instruments, hedged items, hedging policy and the 
method to assess the effectiveness of hedging are 
described in Note 2. (17) Hedge accounting.
(c) Risk management framework for financial instruments
The fundamental matters on risk management for 
SMFG are set forth in “Risk Management Regulations.” 
SMFG’s Management Committee establishes the basic 
risk management policy, based on the Regulations, which 
is then approved by the Board of Directors. SMFG has a 
risk management system based on the basic policy. The 
Corporate Risk Management Department, which, together 
with the Corporate Planning Department, controls risk 
management across SMFG by monitoring the development 
and implementation of SMFG’s risk management system, 
and gives appropriate guidance as needed. Under this 
framework, SMFG comprehensively and systematically 
manages risks.
(i)  Management of credit risk

SMFG conducts integrated management of credit risk 
according to its operational characteristics, and the 
credit risk inherent in its entire portfolio as well as the 
risk in individual credits are managed quantitatively 
and continuously.
i. Credit risk management system
At SMBC, basic policies on credit risk management 
and other significant matters require the resolution of 
the Management Committee and the approval of the 
Board of Directors.
  The Credit & Investment Planning Department 
of the Risk Management Unit is responsible for the 
comprehensive management of credit risk. This depart-
ment establishes, revises or abolishes credit policies, 
the internal rating system, credit authority regulations, 
credit application regulations, and manages non-
performing loans and other aspects of credit portfolio 
management. The department also controls SMBC’s 
total credit risk by quantifying credit risk (i.e. calculat-
ing risk capital and risk-weighted assets) in cooperation 
with the Corporate Risk Management Department. 
The department also monitors risk situations and 
regularly reports to the Management Committee and 
the Board of Directors.

  Moreover, the Credit Portfolio Management 
Department within the Credit & Investment Planning 
Department works to stabilize SMBC’s overall credit 
portfolio through market transactions such as loan 
securitization. In the Corporate Services Unit, the 
Corporate Research Department analyzes industries 
as well as investigates the borrower’s business situ-
ation to detect early signs of problems. The Credit 
Administration Department is responsible for formu-
lating and implementing measures to reduce SMBC’s 
exposures mainly to borrowers classified as potentially 
bankrupt or lower.
  The Credit Departments of Consumer Banking Unit, 
Middle Market Banking Unit and other business units 
play a central role in credit screening and managing 
their units’ credit portfolios. Each business unit estab-
lishes its credit limits based on the baseline amounts 
for each borrower credit grading category. Borrowers 
or loans perceived to have high credit risk undergo 
intensive evaluation and administration by the unit’s 
Credit Department.
  Moreover, the Credit Risk Committee, a consultative 
body straddling the business units, rounds out SMBC’s 
oversight system for undertaking flexible and efficient 
control of credit risk and ensuring the overall soundness 
of the bank’s loan operations.

In addition to these, the Internal Audit Unit, operat-
ing independently from the business units, audits asset 
quality, credit grading accuracy, self-assessment, and 
appropriateness of credit risk management system, and 
reports the results directly to the Board of Directors 
and the Management Committee.
ii. Method of credit risk management
SMBC properly manages the credit risk inherent in 
individual loans and the entire portfolio by assessing 
and quantifying the credit risk of each borrower/
loan using the internal rating system. In addition to 
management of individual loans through credit screen-
ing and monitoring, it manages the credit portfolio 
as described below in order to secure and improve 
the credit portfolio’s soundness and medium-term 
profitability.
— Appropriate risk-taking within the scope of capital 
To limit credit risks to a permissible level relative to 
capital, “credit risk capital limit” has been established 
for internal control purposes. Under this limit, a 
general guideline and designated guidelines for real 
estate finance, investment in funds and securitization 
products, etc. are set for each business unit. Regular 
monitoring is conducted to ensure that these guidelines 
are being followed.
— Controlling concentration risk
Concentration of risk in specific borrowers/industries/
countries could severely reduce a bank’s capital should 
it materialize. SMBC therefore implements measures 
to prevent concentration of credit risk in specific 
industries, and control large exposures to individual 
borrowers by setting guidelines for maximum loan 
amounts and conducting thorough loan reviews. To 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

SMFG

manage country risk, SMBC also has credit limit 
guidelines based on each country’s creditworthiness.
— Greater understanding of actual corporate condi-
tions and balancing returns and risks
SMBC runs credit operations on the basic principle of 
thoroughly understanding actual corporate conditions 
and gaining profit commensurate with the level of 
credit risk entailed, and makes every effort to improve 
profit at after-cost (credit cost, capital cost and 
overhead) level.
— Reduction and prevention of non-performing loans
On non-performing loans and potential non-performing 
loans, SMBC carries out loan reviews to clarify credit 
policies and action plans, enabling it to swiftly imple-
ment measures to prevent deterioration of borrowers’ 
business situations, support business recoveries, collect 
on loans, and enhance loan security.
— Approaches to active portfolio management
SMBC is committed to agile portfolio management, 
such as using credit derivatives and selling loan claims, 
to stabilize its credit portfolio.

In regards to financial instruments such as invest-
ments in certain funds, securitized products and credit 
derivatives that indirectly retain risks related to assets 
such as corporate bonds and loan claims (underlying 
assets), such instruments entail market and liquidity 
risks in addition to credit risk, since such instruments 
are traded on the market. Credit risk management for 
these instruments involving detailed analysis and evalu-
ation of characteristics of underlying assets is performed 
while market risk is comprehensively managed within 
the framework for managing market and liquidity 
risks. Moreover, guidelines have been established based 
on the characteristics of each type of risk. 

In regards to credit risk of derivative transactions, 

the potential exposure based on the market price is 
regularly calculated and properly managed. When 
the counterparty is a financial institution with whom 
SMBC frequently conducts derivative transactions, 
measures such as a close-out netting provision, which 
provide that offsetting credit exposures between the 
2 parties will be combined into a single net payment 
from one party to the other in case of bankruptcy or 
other default event, are implemented to reduce credit 
risk.

(ii) Management of market and liquidity risks

SMFG manages market and liquidity risks by setting 
allowable risk limits; ensuring the transparency of the 
risk management process; and clearly separating front-
office, middle-office, and back-office operations for a 
highly efficient system of mutual checks and balances.
i. Market and liquidity risk management systems
At SMBC, important matters such as basic policies for 
managing market and liquidity risks and risk manage-
ment framework are determined by the Management 
Committee and then approved by the Board of 
Directors. 
  The aforementioned Corporate Risk Management 

SMFG 2011 99

 
 
 
SMFG

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Department, which is independent from the business 
units that directly handle business transactions, 
manages market and liquidity risks in an integrated 
manner. The department also monitors market and 
liquidity risk situations and regularly reports to the 
Management Committee and the Board of Directors.
  Furthermore, SMBC’s cross-departmental “ALM 
Committee” reports on the state of observance of 
market risk capital and liquidity risk capital limits, and 
deliberates on administration of ALM policies. SMBC 
also has a system whereby front-office departments, 
middle-office departments and back-office departments 
check each other’s work in order to prevent clerical 
errors, unauthorized transactions, etc. 

In addition, SMBC’s Internal Audit Unit, which 
is independent from other departments, periodically 
performs comprehensive internal audits to verify that 
the risk management framework is properly function-
ing and reports the audit results to the Management 
Committee, the Board of Directors and other concerned 
committees and departments.
ii. Market and liquidity risk management methodology
— Market risk management
SMBC manages market risk by setting maximum loss 
and VaR (value at risk: maximum potential loss for a 
given probability) within the risk capital limit that is 
set taking into account stockholders’ equity and other 
factors and in accordance with the market transaction 
policies. 
  SMBC uses the historical simulation method (a 
method for estimating the maximum loss by running 
simulations of changes in profit and loss on market 
fluctuation scenarios based on historical data) to 
measure VaR and, based on 4 years of historical 
observation, calculates the maximum loss that may 
occur as a result of market fluctuations in 1 day with a 
probability of 1%.
  Regarding risks associated with foreign exchange 
rates, interest rates, equity risk, option prices and 
other market risk factors, SMBC manages such risks by 
setting a maximum limit on the indicator suited for 
each market risk factor such as BPV (basis point value: 
denotes the change in value of a financial instrument 
resulting from a 0.01 percentage-point change in the 
yield).

— Quantitative information on market risks
As of March 31, 2011, total VaR of SMBC and other 
major consolidated subsidiaries was ¥48.6 billion in 
the banking book (market operations for generating 
profit through management of interest rates, terms, 
and other aspects of assets (loans, bonds, etc.) and 
liabilities (deposits, etc.)), ¥6.8 billion in the trading 
book (market operations for generating profit by taking 
advantage of short-term fluctuations in market values 
and differences in value among markets) and ¥114.1 
billion in the holding of shares (listed shares) for the 
purpose of strategic investment.
  However, it should be noted that these figures are 
statistical figures that change according to changes in 
the assumptions and the calculation methods, and may 
not cover the risk of future market conditions fluctuat-
ing drastically compared to market fluctuations of the 
past.
— Liquidity risk management
At SMBC, funding liquidity risk is managed based on 
a framework consisting of setting funding gap limits 
and guidelines, maintaining a system of highly liquid 
supplementary funding sources, and establishing con-
tingency plans. SMBC tries to avoid excessive reliance 
on short-term funds by managing funding gap limits 
and guidelines and has established a contingency plan 
covering emergency action plans such as reducing fund-
ing gap limits and guidelines. In addition, to ensure 
smooth fulfillment of transactions in face of market 
turmoil, SMBC holds assets such as U.S. treasuries that 
can be sold immediately and emergency committed 
lines as supplemental liquidity.
  Moreover, to manage the liquidity risk of marketable 
instruments, derivative transactions, etc., SMBC has 
trading limits for each business office classified by 
currency, instrument, transaction period, etc. As for 
financial futures, etc., risks are managed by restricting 
positions within a certain percentage of open interest in 
the entire market.

(d)  Supplementary explanations about matters concerning fair 

value of financial instruments
Fair values of financial instruments are based on their 
market prices and, in cases where market prices are not 
available, reasonably calculated prices. Such prices have 
been calculated using certain assumptions, and may differ 
if calculated based on different assumptions.

*1  Loans and bills discounted do not include general reserve for possible loan losses and specific reserve for possible loan losses. The reserves for possible losses on “Cash and 

due from banks and Deposits with banks,” “Call loans and bills bought,” “Monetary claims bought,” “Foreign exchanges,” and “Lease receivables and investment assets” are 
deducted directly from “Consolidated balance sheet amount” since they are immaterial.

*2  The amounts collectively represent the derivative transactions which are recorded on “Trading assets,” “Trading liabilities,” “Other assets” and “Other liabilities.” Debts and 

credits arising from derivative transactions are presented on a net basis.

(b)  Fair value calculation methodology for financial 

instruments
Assets
1) Cash and due from banks and Deposits with banks, 
2) Call loans and bills bought, 3) Receivables under resale 
agreements, 4) Receivables under securities borrowing 
transactions, 9) Loans and bills discounted, 10) Foreign 
exchanges, and 11) Lease receivables and investment assets:
Of these transactions, the book values of dues from banks 
without maturity and overdrafts with no specified repay-
ment dates are regarded to approximate their fair values; 
thus, their fair values are their book values.
  For short-term transactions with remaining life as of the 
end of the fiscal year not exceeding 6 months, their fair 

values are, in principle, their book value as book values are 
regarded to approximate fair values.
  The fair value of those with a remaining life of more 
than 6 months is, in principle, the present value of 
future cash flows (calculated by discounting estimated 
future cash flows, taking into account factors such as the 
borrower’s internal rating and pledged collateral, using a 
rate comprising a risk-free interest rate and an overhead 
ratio). Certain consolidated subsidiaries of SMFG calculate 
the present value by discounting the estimated future cash 
flows computed based on the contractual interest rate, 
using a rate comprising a risk-free interest rate and a credit 
risk premium.
  Regarding claims on bankrupt borrowers, effectively 

SMFG 2011 103

SMFG

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

bankrupt borrowers and potentially bankrupt borrowers, 
expected losses on such claims are calculated based on 
either the present value of expected future cash flows or the 
expected recoverable amount from collateral or guarantees. 
Since the claims’ balance sheet amounts at the closing 
date minus the current expected amount of loan losses 
approximate their fair values, such amounts are regarded as 
their fair values.
5) Monetary claims bought:
The fair values of monetary claims bought with market 
prices, such as beneficial interests in commodities invest-
ment trusts, are based on their market prices as of the end 
of the fiscal year. The fair values of subordinated trust 
beneficiary interests related to securitized housing loans 
are based on the assessed value of underlying assets minus 
the assessed value of senior beneficial interests, etc. The 
fair values of other transactions are, in principle, based on 
prices calculated using methods similar to the methods 
applied to 9) Loans and bills discounted.
6) Trading assets:
The fair values of bonds and other securities held for trad-
ing purposes are, in principle, based on their market price 
at the final date of the fiscal year.
7) Money held in trust:
The fair values of money held in trust are, in principle, 
based on the market prices of securities held in trust 
calculated using methods similar to the methods applied to 
8) Securities.
8) Securities:
In principle, the fair values of stocks (including foreign 
stocks) are based on the average market price during 1 
month before the end of the fiscal year. The fair values of 
bonds and securities with market prices other than stocks 
are prices calculated based on their market prices on the 
final date of the fiscal year.

In light of the “Practical Solution on Measurement of 

Fair Value for Financial Assets” (ASBJ Practical Issues 
Task Force No. 25), the fair values of floating-rate Japanese 
government bonds are based on the present value of future 
cash flows (the government bond yield is used to discount 
and estimate future cash flows). Bond yield and yield 
volatility are the main price parameters. The fair values 
of those without market prices, such as private placement 
bonds, are based on the present value of future cash flows 
calculated by discounting estimated future cash flows tak-
ing into account the borrower’s internal rating and pledged 
collateral by a rate comprising a risk-free interest rate and 
an overhead ratio. However, the fair values of bonds issued 
by bankrupt borrowers, effectively bankrupt borrowers and 
potentially bankrupt borrowers are based on the bond’s 
face value after the deduction of the expected amount of a 
loss on the bond computed using the same method applied 
to the estimation of a loan loss. The fair values of publicly 
offered investment trusts are calculated based on the 
published net asset value (NAV) per share, while those of 
private placement investment trusts are calculated based on 
the NAV published by securities firms and other financial 
institutions.

Liabilities
1) Deposits, 2) Negotiable certificates of deposit and 
12) Due to trust account:
The fair values of demand deposits and deposits without 
maturity are based on their book values as at the end of the 
fiscal year. The fair values of short-term transactions with 
remaining life as of the end of the fiscal year not exceeding 
6 months are also based on their book values, as their book 
values are regarded to approximate their fair values. The 
fair values of transactions with a remaining life of more 
than 6 months are, in principle, based on the present value 
of future cash flows calculated using the rate applied to the 
same type of deposits that are newly accepted until the end 
of the remaining life.
3) Call money and bills sold, 4) Payables under repurchase 
agreements, 5) Payables under securities lending transac-
tions, 6) Commercial paper, 8) Borrowed money, 
10) Short-term bonds and 11) Bonds:
The fair values of short-term transactions with remaining 
life as of the end of the fiscal year not exceeding 6 months 
are based on their book values, as their book values are 
regarded to approximate their fair values. For transactions 
with a remaining life of more than 6 months, their fair 
values are, in principle, based on the present value of future 
cash flows calculated using the refinancing rate applied to 
the same type of instruments for the remaining life. The 
fair values of bonds are based on the present value of future 
cash flows calculated using the rate derived from the data 
on the yields of benchmark bonds and publicly offered 
subordinated bonds published by securities firms.
7) Trading liabilities:
The fair values of bonds sold for short sales and other 
securities for trading purposes are, in principle, based on 
their market prices on the final date of the fiscal year.
9) Foreign exchanges:
The fair values of foreign currency-denominated deposits 
without maturity received from other banks are based on 
their book values as at the end of the fiscal year.
  The fair values of foreign exchange related short-term 
borrowings are based on their book values, as their book 
values are regarded to approximate their fair values.
Derivatives transactions
The fair values of exchange-traded derivatives are based on 
their closing prices. With regard to OTC transactions, the 
fair values of interest rate, currency, stock, bond and credit 
derivatives are based on their settlement prices as at the 
end of the fiscal year calculated based on the present value 
of the expected future cash flows or using valuation tech-
niques such as the option pricing model. The fair values 
of commodity derivatives transactions are based on their 
settlement prices as at the end of the fiscal year, calculated 
based on the derivative instrument’s components, includ-
ing price and contract term.

(f)  Change of classification of securities

There are no corresponding transactions.

(g) Write-down of securities

Securities (excluding stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates) with fair value are considered as impaired if the fair value declines materi-
ally below the acquisition cost and such decline is not considered as recoverable. In such a case, the fair value is recognized as the 
balance sheet amount and the amount of write-down is accounted for as valuation loss for the fiscal year. Valuation losses for the 
fiscal years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were ¥109,921 million ($1,322 million) and ¥19,519 million, respectively. The rule for 
determining “material decline” is as follows and is based on the classification of issuers under self-assessment of assets.

Bankrupt/Effectively bankrupt/Potentially bankrupt issuers: 
Issuers requiring caution: 
Normal issuers: 
Bankrupt issuers: Issuers that are legally bankrupt or formally declared bankrupt.
Effectively bankrupt issuers: Issuers that are not legally bankrupt but regarded as substantially bankrupt.
Potentially bankrupt issuers: Issuers that are not bankrupt now, but are perceived to have a high risk of falling into bankruptcy.
Issuers requiring caution: Issuers that are identified for close monitoring.
Normal issuers: Issuers other than the above 4 categories of issuers.

Fair value is lower than acquisition cost.
Fair value is 30% or more lower than acquisition cost.
Fair value is 50% or more lower than acquisition cost.

Notes: 1.  SMFG applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in “Treatment for Accounting and Auditing of Application of Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments in 

Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24).

2.  Fair value of transactions listed on exchange is calculated using the closing prices on the Tokyo Financial Exchange and others. 

Fair value of OTC transactions is calculated using discounted present value and option pricing models.

3.  Interest rate swap amounts measured by the special treatment for interest rate swaps are treated with the borrowed money or other transaction that is subject to the 

hedge. Therefore such fair value is included in the fair value of the relevant transaction subject to the hedge in “30. Financial Instruments.”

(c)  Valuation technique used for valuating fair value of stock options 

Stock options granted in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the 
principal parameters were as follows:

Date of resolution
Expected volatility *1  ........................................................................
Average expected life *2 .....................................................................
Expected dividends *3 ........................................................................
Risk-free interest rate *4 ....................................................................
*1  Expected volatility is calculated based on the closing price of common shares of SMFG on each trading day in the 4 years between August 14, 2006 and August 13, 2010.
*2  The average expected life could not be estimated rationally due to insufficient amount of data.

July 28, 2010
51.44% 
4 years 
¥100 per share 
0.23% 

Therefore, it was estimated based on average assumption periods of directors of SMFG and SMBC.

*3 Expected dividends are based on the actual dividends on common stock for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.
*4 Japanese government bond yield corresponding to the average expected life.

(d)  Method of estimating number of stock options vested 

Only the actual number of forfeited stock options is reflected because it is difficult to rationally estimate the actual number of stock 
options that will be forfeited in the future.

34. Segment Information
Fiscal years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
1. Outline of reportable segments

 SMFG Group’s reportable segment is defined as an operating segment for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by 
the Board of Directors regularly in order to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance.
   Besides banking business, SMFG Group companies conduct businesses such as securities, leasing, credit card, invest banking, consumer 
finance, and venture capital. The primary businesses, “Banking business,” “Securities services,” “Leasing,” and “Credit card services,” are 
separate, reportable segments, and other businesses are aggregated as “Other business.”
   “Banking business” includes deposit taking, lending, securities trading, securities investment, domestic and foreign exchange transactions, 
brokerage, etc. of financial futures transactions, etc., corporate bond trust services, trust business, sale of securities investment trusts, sale of 
insurance products, and securities intermediary services. SMBC assesses business performance by classifying businesses into 5 business units 
based on client segment: Consumer banking unit, Middle market banking unit, Corporate banking unit, International banking unit and 
Treasury unit.

2. Method of calculating profit and loss amount by reportable segment

 Accounting method applied to the reported business segment is the same as described in “Significant Accounting Policies.” However, profit or 
loss of the equity method affiliates is recorded in “Other profit or loss” in the amount of ordinary profit multiplied by the ownership ratio.
   SMFG does not assess assets by business segment.

(2)  Basis for calculation of the merger ratio

(a) Common stock

In order to ensure the fairness of the merger ratio, KUBC 
and Biwako Bank appointed Daiwa Securities Capital 
Markets Co. Ltd. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., 
respectively, as their financial advisors and requested 
them to calculate the merger ratio of common stock. 
After conducting negotiations and discussions taking into 
account factors such as their financial conditions, asset 
quality and future prospects, the analysis of the merger 
ratio provided by each financial advisor and results of due 
diligence they carried out on each other, the 2 banks agreed 
and decided on the above merger ratio of common stock as 
being appropriate.

(b) Preferred stocks (Type 1 and Type 2)

Market prices of preferred stocks (Type 1 and Type 2) issued 
by Biwako Bank were not available (in contrast to common 
stock which market price was available). KUBC therefore 
decided to set the same conditions as those of Biwako Bank’s 
preferred stocks on KUBC’s newly-issued preferred stocks, 
taking the merger ratio of common stock into account.

A merger of credit card companies
A consolidated subsidiary, QUOQ Inc. (“QUOQ”) and equity 
method affiliates, Central Finance Co., Ltd. (“CF”) and OMC Card, 
Inc. (“OMC Card”) merged on April 1, 2009. The new company was 
named Cedyna Financial Corporation and became an equity method 
affiliate of SMFG. The outline of the merger is as follows:
1. Outline of the business combination

(1)  Company profiles

Surviving company: OMC Card (Credit card business)
Merged company: CF (Shopping credit business
  and general credit business)
Merged company: QUOQ (Shopping credit business 
  and general credit business)

(2)  Reasons for the business combination

The credit card market is growing steadily, propelled by the 
expansion into new areas of settlement, such as for small 
purchases, the growing popularity of reward point programs, 
and other developments. Further substantial growth of the 
industry is anticipated with the greater use of credit cards to 
pay for public services charges and in other fields. At the same 
time, the business environment surrounding the industry is 
changing dramatically — development of new technologies 
and new services, such as electronic money; investment 
in systems that can respond to customers’ needs for more 
in-depth, sophisticated and diverse services; enactment of 

132

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

SMFG

laws on money lending business; etc. — and the industry is 
at a major turning point. In the shopping credit business, 
the Installment Sales Act is being revised amid the trend to 
strengthen consumer protection. Under these circumstances,

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (“SMFG”) 
and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in net 
assets and cash flows for the years then ended, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year 
ended March 31, 2011 expressed in Japanese yen. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of 
SMFG’s management. Our responsibility is to independently express an opinion on these consolidated financial state-
ments based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan. Those standards require 
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures 
in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates 
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the 
consolidated financial position of SMFG and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated 
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles 
generally accepted in Japan.

Additional Information:
As discussed in Note 37 to the consolidated financial statements, SMFG acquired and cancelled its 1st series Type 6 
preferred stock on April 1, 2011, based on a resolution at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on February 28, 
2011.

The consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2011 have been translated into United 
States dollars solely for convenience of the readers. We have recomputed the translation, and, in our opinion, the 
consolidated financial statements expressed in Japanese yen have been translated into United States dollars on the 
basis set forth in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.

Notes:  1.  Domestic operations comprise the operations of SMFG, its domestic consolidated banking subsidiaries (excluding overseas branches) and other domestic 

consolidated subsidiaries.

2.  In principle, average balances are calculated by using daily balances. However, some consolidated subsidiaries use weekly, monthly or quarterly balances 

instead.

3.  “Interest-earning assets” are shown after deduction of the average balance of noninterest-earning deposits (2011, ¥1,188,255 million; 2010, ¥965,438 

million).

4.  Income and expenses resulting from money held in trust are included in “Other income” and “Other expenses.” Therefore, “Interest-earning assets” are 

shown after deduction of the average balance of money held in trust (2011, ¥21,928 million; 2010, ¥12,392 million). “Interest-bearing liabilities” are shown 
after deduction of amounts equivalent to the average balance of money held in trust (2011, ¥21,928 million; 2010, ¥12,392 million) and corresponding 
interest (2011, ¥16 million; 2010, ¥20 million).

Notes:  1.  “Interest-earning assets” are shown after deduction of the average balance of noninterest-earning deposits (2011, ¥1,070,110 million; 2010, ¥1,013,420 

million).

2.  Income and expenses resulting from money held in trust are included in “Other income” and “Other expenses.” Therefore, “Interest-earning assets” are 

shown after deduction of the average balance of money held in trust (2011, ¥10,640 million; 2010, ¥10,191 million). “Interest-bearing liabilities” are shown 
after deduction of amounts equivalent to the average balance of money held in trust (2011, ¥10,640 million; 2010, ¥10,191 million) and corresponding 
interest (2011, ¥16 million; 2010, ¥20 million).

3.  Figures in the table above indicate the net average balances of amounts adjusted for interdepartmental lending and borrowing activities between domestic 

and international operations and related interest expenses.

Capital Ratio Information

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

The consolidated capital ratio is calculated using the method stipulated in “Standards for Bank Holding Company to Examine the Adequacy of 
Its Capital Based on Assets, Etc. Held by It and Its Subsidiaries Pursuant to Article 52-25 of the Banking Act” (Notification No. 20 issued by 
the Japanese Financial Services Agency in 2006; hereinafter referred to as “the Notification”).

In addition to the method stipulated in the Notification to calculate the consolidated capital ratio (referred to as “First Standard” in the 

Notification), SMFG has adopted the advanced internal ratings-based (IRB) approach for calculating credit risk-weighted asset amounts. 
Further, SMFG has implemented market risk controls, and, in calculating the amount corresponding to operational risk, the Advanced 
Measurement Approach (AMA).

“Capital Ratio Information” was prepared based on the Notification, and the terms and details in the section may differ from the terms and 

details in other sections of this report.

Capital Ratio Information

■ Capital Structure Information (Consolidated Capital Ratio (First Standard))

Regarding the calculation of the capital ratio, certain procedures were performed by KPMG AZSA LLC pursuant to “Treatment of Inspection 
of the Capital Ratio Calculation Framework Based on Agreed-Upon Procedures” (JICPA Industry Committee Report No. 30). The certain 
procedures performed by the external auditor are not part of the audit of consolidated financial statements. The certain procedures performed 
on our internal control framework for calculating the capital ratio are based on procedures agreed upon by SMFG and the external auditor and 
are not a validation of appropriateness of the capital ratio itself or opinion on the internal controls related to the capital ratio calculation.

Notes: 1.  Capital requirements for credit risk are capital equivalents to “credit risk-weighted assets ✕ 8%” under the standardized approach and “credit risk-weighted assets ✕ 8% + 

expected loss amount” under the IRB approach. Regarding exposures to be deducted from capital, the deduction amount is added to the amount of required capital.

2. Portfolio classification is after CRM.
3. “Securitization exposures” includes such exposures based on the standardized approach.
4.  “Other exposures” includes estimated lease residual values, purchased receivables (including exposures to qualified corporate enterprises and others), long settlement 

transactions and other assets.

2. Exposures by Asset Class
(1) Corporate Exposures

A. Corporate, Sovereign and Bank Exposures

(A) Rating Procedures

(cid:129)  “Corporate, sovereign and bank exposures” includes credits to domestic and overseas commercial/industrial (C&I) companies, 
individuals for business purposes (domestic only), sovereigns, public sector entities, and financial institutions. Business loans 
such as apartment construction loans, and small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) loans with standardized screening process 
(hereinafter referred to as “standardized SME loans”) are, in principle, included in “retail exposures.” However, credits of more 
than ¥100 million are treated as corporate exposures in accordance with the Notification.

(cid:129)  An obligor is assigned an obligor grade by first assigning a financial grade using a financial strength grading model and data 

obtained from the obligor’s financial statements. The financial grade is then adjusted taking into account the actual state of the 
obligor’s balance sheet and qualitative factors to derive the obligor grade (for details, please refer to “Credit Risk Assessment 
and Quantification” on page 35). Different rating series are used for domestic and overseas obligors — J1 ~ J10 for domestic 
obligors and G1 ~ G10 for overseas obligors — as shown below due to differences in actual default rate levels and portfolios’ grade 
distribution. Different Probability of Default (PD) values are applied also.

(cid:129)  In addition to the above basic rating procedure which builds on the financial grade assigned at the beginning, in some cases, the 

obligor grade is assigned based on the parent company’s credit quality or credit ratings published by external rating agencies. The 
Japanese government, local authorities and other public sector entities with special basis for existence and unconventional financial 
statements are assigned obligor grades based on their attributes (for example, “local municipal corporations”), as the data on these 
obligors are not suitable for conventional grading models. Further, credits to individuals for business purposes, business loans and 
standardized SME loans are assigned obligor grades using grading models developed specifically for these exposures.

(cid:129)  PDs used for calculating credit risk-weighted assets are estimated based on the default experience for each grade and taking into 
account the possibility of estimation errors. In addition to internal data, external data are used to estimate and validate PDs. The 
definition of default is the definition stipulated in the Notification (an event that would lead to an exposure being classified as 
“substandard loans,” “doubtful assets” or “bankrupt and quasi-bankrupt assets” occurring to the obligor).

(cid:129)  Loss given defaults (LGDs) used in the calculation of credit risk-weighted assets are estimated based on historical loss experience 

of credits in default, taking into account the possibility of estimation errors.

B. Specialized Lending (SL)
(A) Rating Procedures

(cid:129)  “Specialized lending” is sub-classified into “project finance,” “object finance,” “commodity finance,” “income-producing real 
estate” (IPRE) and “high-volatility commercial real estate” (HVCRE) in accordance with the Notification. Project finance is 
financing of a single project, such as a power plant or transportation infrastructure, and cash flows generated by the project are the 
primary source of repayment. Object finance includes aircraft finance and ship finance, and IPRE and HVCRE include real estate 
finance (a primary example is non-recourse real estate finance). There were no commodity finance exposures as of March 31, 2011.
(cid:129)  Each SL product is classified as either a facility assigned a PD grade and LGD grade or a facility assigned a grade based primarily 
on the expected loss ratio, both using grading models and qualitative assessment. The former has the same grading structure as 
that of corporate, and the latter has ten grade levels as with obligor grades but the definition of each grade differs from that of the 
obligor grade which is focused on PD.

For the credit risk-weighted asset amount for the SL category, the former facility is calculated in a manner similar to corporate 

exposures, while the latter facility is calculated by mapping the expected loss-based facility grades to the below five categories 
(hereinafter the “slotting criteria”) of the Notification because it does not satisfy the requirements for PD application specified in 
the Notification.

(2) Retail Exposures

A. Residential Mortgage Exposures

(A) Rating Procedures

(cid:129)  “Residential mortgage exposures” includes mortgage loans to individuals and some real estate loans in which the property consists 
of both residential and commercial facilities such as a store or rental apartment units, but excludes apartment construction loans.

(cid:129)  Mortgage loans are rated as follows.

Mortgage loans are allocated to a portfolio segment with similar risk characteristics in terms of (a) default risk determined using 
loan contract information, results of an exclusive grading model and a borrower category under self-assessment executed in 
accordance with the financial inspection manual of the Japanese FSA, and (b) recovery risk at the time of default determined using 
Loan To Value (LTV) calculated based on the assessment value of collateral real estate. PDs and LGDs are estimated based on the 
default experience for each segment and taking into account the possibility of estimation errors.

Further, the portfolio is subdivided based on the lapse of years from the contract date, and the effectiveness of segmentation in 

terms of default risk and recovery risk is validated periodically.

Internal data are used to estimate and validate PDs and LGDs. The definition of default is the definition stipulated in the 

Notification.

Notes: 1. “Others” includes loans guaranteed by employers.

2.  “Delinquent” loans are past due loans and loans to obligors categorized as “Borrowers Requiring Caution” that do not satisfy the definition of default stipulated 

in the Notification.

B. Qualifying Revolving Retail Exposures (QRRE)

(A) Rating Procedures

(cid:129) “Qualifying revolving retail exposures” includes card loans and credit card balances.
(cid:129)  Card loans and credit card balances are rated as follows.

Card loans and credit card balances are allocated to a portfolio segment with similar risk characteristics determined based, for card 
loans, on the credit quality of the loan guarantee company, credit limit, settlement account balance and payment history, and, for 
credit card balances, on repayment history and frequency of use.

PDs and LGDs used to calculate credit risk-weighted asset amounts are estimated based on the default experience for each 

segment and taking into account the possibility of estimation errors.

Further, the effectiveness of segmentation in terms of default risk and recovery risk is validated periodically. 
Internal data are used to estimate and validate PDs and LGDs. The definition of default is the definition stipulated in the 

Notification.

Notes: 1.  The on-balance sheet exposure amount is estimated by estimating the amount of increase in each transaction balance and not by multiplying the undrawn 

amount by the CCF.

2.  “Weighted average CCF” is “On-balance sheet exposure amount ÷ Undrawn amount” and provided for reference only. It is not used for estimating 

on-balance sheet exposure amounts.

3. Past due loans of less than three months are recorded in “Delinquent.”

C. Other Retail Exposures
(A) Rating Procedures

(cid:129)  “Other retail exposures” includes business loans such as apartment construction loans, standardized SME loans, and consumer 

loans such as My Car Loan. 

(cid:129)  Business loans, standardized SME loans and consumer loans are rated as follows.

a.  Business loans and standardized SME loans are allocated to a portfolio segment with similar risk characteristics in terms of 

(a) default risk determined using loan contract information, results of exclusive grading model and borrower category under 
self-assessment executed in accordance with the financial inspection manual of the Japanese FSA, and (b) recovery risk 
determined based on, for standardized SME loans, obligor attributes and, for business loans, LTV. PDs and LGDs are estimated 
based on the default experience for each segment and taking into account the possibility of estimation errors. 

b.  Rating procedures for consumer loans depends on whether the loan is collateralized. Collateralized consumer loans are allocated 
to a portfolio segment using the same standards as for mortgage loans of “A. Residential Mortgage Exposures.” Uncollateralized 
consumer loans are allocated to a portfolio segment based on account history. PDs and LGDs are estimated based on the default 
experience for each segment and taking into account the possibility of estimation errors.

Further, the effectiveness of segmentation in terms of default risk and recovery risk is validated periodically. 
Internal data are used to estimate and validate PDs and LGDs. The definition of default is the definition stipulated in the 

Notification.

(3) Equity Exposures and Credit Risk-Weighted Assets under Article 145 of the Notification

A. Equity Exposures

(A) Rating Procedures

When acquiring equities subject to the PD/LGD approach, issuers are assigned obligor grades using the same rules as those of 
general credits to C&I companies, sovereigns and financial institutions. The obligors are monitored (for details, please refer to page 
37) and their grades are revised if necessary (credit risk-weighted asset amount is set to 1.5 times when they are not monitored 
individually). In the case there is no credit transaction with the issuer or it is difficult to obtain financial information, internal 
grades are assigned using ratings of external rating agencies if it is a qualifying investment. In the case it is difficult to obtain 
financial information and it is not a qualifying investment, the simple risk weight method under the market-based approach is 
applied.

B. Credit Risk-Weighted Assets under Article 145 of the Notification

(A) Outline of method for calculating credit risk assets

Exposures under Article 145 of the Notification include credits to funds. In the case of such exposures, in principle, each underlying 
asset of the fund is assigned an obligor grade to calculate the asset’s credit risk-weighted asset amount and the amounts are totaled 
to derive the credit risk-weighted asset amount of the fund. When equity exposures account for more than half of the underlying 
assets of the fund, or it is difficult to directly calculate the credit risk-weighted asset amount of individual underlying assets, 
the credit risk-weighted asset amount of the fund is calculated using the simple majority adjustment method, in which credit 
risk-weighted assets are calculated using a risk weight of 400% (when the risk-weighted average of individual assets underlying the 
portfolio is less than 400%) or a risk weight of 1250% (in other cases).

(4) Analysis of Actual Losses

A. Year-on-Year Comparison of Actual Losses

SMFG recorded total credit costs (the total of the general reserve, non-performing loan write-offs, and gains on collection of written-off 
claims) of ¥217.3 billion on a consolidated basis for fiscal year 2010, a decrease of ¥255.7 billion compared to the previous fiscal year.
SMBC recorded ¥94.3 billion in total credit costs on a non-consolidated basis in fiscal year 2010, a decrease of ¥160.4 billion com-
pared to the previous fiscal year. By exposure category, the credit cost for “corporate exposures” decreased by ¥144.7 billion compared 
to the previous year, to ¥71.9 billion. The credit cost for “bank exposures” decreased by ¥17.5 billion compared to the previous year, 
to ¥(14.0) billion. These results are primarily due to the measures taken by SMBC to improve the business and financial conditions of 
borrowers according to the circumstances of each borrower, and a partial reversal of the loan-loss reserve.

■ Standardized Approach
1. Scope

The following consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the standardized approach for exposures as of March 31, 2011 (i.e. consolidated 
subsidiaries not listed in the “Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach: 1. Scope” on page 181).

(1)  Consolidated Subsidiaries Planning to Adopt Phased Rollout of the IRB Approach

Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Co., Ltd., Kansai Urban Banking Corporation and Cedyna Financial Corporation

(2)  Other Consolidated Subsidiaries

These are consolidated subsidiaries judged not to be significant in terms of credit risk management based on the type of business, scale, 
and other factors. These subsidiaries will adopt the standardized approach on a permanent basis. 

2. Credit Risk-Weighted Asset Calculation Methodology

A 100% risk weight is applied to claims on corporates in accordance with Article 45 of the Notification, and risk weights corresponding to 
country risk scores published by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) are applied to claims on sovereigns 
and financial institutions.

■ Credit Risk Mitigation (CRM) Techniques
1. Risk Management Policy and Procedures

In calculating credit risk-weighted asset amounts, SMFG takes into account credit risk mitigation (CRM) techniques. Specifically, amounts 
are adjusted for eligible financial or real estate collateral, guarantees, and credit derivatives or by netting loans against the obligors’ deposits 
with SMFG financial institutions. The methods and scope of these adjustments and methods of management are as follows.

(1) Scope and Management

A. Collateral (Eligible Financial or Real Estate Collateral)

SMBC designates deposits and securities as eligible financial collateral, and land and buildings as eligible real estate collateral. 
  Real estate collateral is evaluated by taking into account its fair value, appraisal value, and current condition, as well as our lien 
position. Real estate collateral must maintain sufficient collateral value in the event security rights must be exercised due to delinquency. 
However, during the period from acquiring the rights to exercising the rights, the property may deteriorate or suffer damage from 
earthquakes or other natural disasters, or there may be changes in the lien position due to, for example, attachment or establishment of 
liens by a third party. Therefore, the regular monitoring of collateral is implemented according to the type of property and the type of 
security interest.

B. Guarantees and Credit Derivatives

Guarantors are sovereigns, municipal corporations, credit guarantee corporations and other public entities, financial institutions, and 
C&I companies. Counterparties to credit derivative transactions are mostly domestic and overseas banks and securities companies.
  Credit risk-weighted asset amounts are calculated taking into account credit risk mitigation of guarantees and credit derivatives 
acquired from entities with sufficient ability to provide protection such as sovereigns, municipal corporations and other public sector 
entities of comparable credit quality, and financial institutions and C&I companies with sufficient credit ratings.

SMFG 2011

 
Capital Ratio Information

SMFG

C. Netting of Loans against Deposits

SMBC verifies the legal effectiveness of netting arrangements for loans and deposits for each transaction. Specifically, lending 
transactions subject to the netting of loans against deposits are stipulated in the “Agreement on Bank Transactions,” and fixed-term 
deposits that have fixed maturity dates and cannot be transferred to third-party entities are subject to netting. Regarding deposits with 
us submitted as collateral, their effect as credit risk mitigation is taken into account under the eligible financial collateral framework 
described in A. above.

Further, maturity dates and balances (including the post-netting situation) are monitored for subject loans and deposits in 
accordance with the Notification. When there is a maturity/currency mismatch, netting is executed after making adjustments as 
stipulated in the Notification, and the credit risk-weighted asset amount is calculated after netting. 

(2) Concentration of Credit Risk and Market Risk Accompanying Application of Credit Risk Mitigation Techniques

At SMBC, there is a framework in place for controlling concentration of risk in obligors with large exposures which includes credit limit 
guidelines, risk concentration monitoring, and reporting to the Credit Risk Committee (please refer to page 34). Further, exposures to 
these obligors are monitored on a group basis, taking into account risk concentration in their parent companies in cases of guaranteed 
exposures.
  When marketable financial products (for example, credit derivatives) are used as credit risk mitigants, market risk generated by these 
products is controlled by setting upper limits.

■ Derivative Transactions and Long Settlement Transactions
1. Risk Management Policy and Procedures

(1) Policy on Collateral Security and Impact of Deterioration of Our Credit Quality

Collateralized derivative is a CRM technique in which collateral is delivered or received regularly in accordance with replacement cost. 
The Group conducts collateralized derivative transactions as necessary, thereby reducing credit risk. In the event our credit quality 
deteriorates, however, the counterparty may demand additional collateral, but its impact is deemed to be insignificant.

(2) Netting

Netting is another CRM technique, and “close-out netting” is the main type of netting. In close-out netting, when a default event, such 
as bankruptcy, occurs to the counterparty, all claims against, and obligations to, the counterparty, regardless of maturity and currency, 
are netted out to create a single claim or obligation. 
  Close-out netting is applied to foreign exchange and swap transactions covered under a master agreement with a net-out clause or 
other means of securing legal effectiveness, and the effect of CRM is taken into account only for such claims and obligations.

■ Securitization Exposures
1. Risk Management Policy and Procedures

Definition of securitization exposure has been clarified in order to properly identify, measure, evaluate and report risks, and a risk management 
department, independent of business units, has been established to centrally manage risks from recognizing securitization exposures to 
measuring, evaluating and reporting credit risk-weighted assets.
  The Group takes one of the following positions in securitization transactions.
(cid:129)  Originator (a direct or indirect originator of underlying assets or a sponsor of an ABCP conduit or a similar program that acquires 

exposures from third-party entities)

(cid:129) Investor
(cid:129)  Others (for example, provider of swap for preventing a mismatch between the dividend on trust beneficiary rights and cash flows 

generated by underlying assets on which the rights are issued)

2. Credit Risk-Weighted Asset Calculation Methodology

 There are three methods of calculating the credit risk-weighted asset amount of securitization exposures subject to the IRB approach: 
the ratings-based approach, the supervisory formula, and the internal assessment approach. The methods are used as follows.
(cid:129)  First, securitization exposures are examined and the ratings-based approach is applied to qualifying exposures.
(cid:129)  The remaining exposures are examined and the supervisory formula is applied to qualifying exposures.
(cid:129)  The remaining exposures are deducted from capital.
   The credit risk-weighted asset amount for securitization exposures subject to the standardized approach is calculated mostly using ratings 
published by qualifying rating agencies or based on weighted average risk weights of underlying assets as stipulated in the Notification.

192

SMFG 2011

Capital Ratio Information

SMFG

3. Accounting Policy on Securitization Transactions

Accounting treatment of securitization of financial assets is as follows. Extinguishment of financial assets is recognized when the contractual 
rights over the financial assets are exercised, forfeited or control over the rights is transferred to a third-party, and the difference between the 
book value of the financial assets and the amount received/paid is recorded as the term’s gain/loss. When the control over the contractual 
rights is not deemed to have been transferred, the securitization transaction is treated as a financial transaction such as a mortgage loan.
  When a portion of financial assets satisfies the extinguishment condition, the extinguishment of the said portion is recognized and the 
difference between the book value of the extinguished portion and the amount received/paid is recorded as the term’s gain/loss. The book 
value of the extinguished portion is calculated by allocating the book value of the financial assets based on the proportion of the financial 
assets’ fair value that the extinguished portion represents. 

Further, the remaining portion whose fair value is available is measured at fair value, and the related valuation differences are reported as 

a component of “net assets.” The impairments are measured and recorded as necessary.

4. Qualifying External Ratings Agencies

When computing credit risk-weighted asset amounts for securitization exposures using the rating-based approach under the IRB approach 
or standardized approach, the risk weights are determined by mapping the ratings of qualifying rating agencies to the risk weights 
stipulated in the Notification. The qualifying rating agencies are Rating and Investment Information, Inc. (R&I), Japan Credit Rating 
Agency, Ltd. (JCR), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (Moody’s), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (S&P), and Fitch Ratings Ltd. (Fitch). 
When more than one rating is available for an exposure, the second smallest risk weight is used, in accordance with the Notification.

Notes: 1.  The above amounts include the amount of underlying assets securitized during the term without entailing “securitization exposures.”
2.  “Default amount” is the total of underlying assets which are past due three months or more and defaulted underlying assets.
3.  “Default amount” and “Loss amount” when acting as a sponsor of securitization of customer claims are estimated using the following methods and 

alternative data, as in some cases it can be difficult to obtain relevant data in a timely manner because the underlying assets have been recovered by the 
customer.

(1)  “Default amount” estimation method

(cid:129)   For securitization transactions subject to the ratings-based approach, the amount is estimated based on information on underlying assets obtainable from 

customers, etc.

(cid:129)  For securitization transactions subject to the supervisory formula, the amount is estimated based on obtainable information on, or default rate of, each 

obligor. Further, when it is difficult to estimate the amount using either method, it is conservatively estimated by assuming that the underlying asset is a 
default asset.

(2) “Loss amount” estimation method

(cid:129)  For securitization transactions subject to the ratings-based approach, the amount is the same amount as the “Default amount” estimated conservatively in (1) 

above.

(cid:129)  For securitization transactions subject to the supervisory formula, when expected loss ratios of defaulted underlying assets can be determined, the amount 

is estimated using the ratios. When it is difficult to determine the ratios, the amount is the same amount as the “Default amount” estimated conservatively 
in (1) above.

4.  “Other claims” includes lease fees.
5.  Following Articles 230 and 248 of the Notification, there are no amounts that represent “exposure to products subject to early amortization provisions” to 

investors.

Capital Ratio Information

■ Equity Exposures in Banking Book
1.  Risk Management Policy and Procedures

Securities in the banking book are properly managed, for example, by setting upper limits on the allowable amount of risk under the market 
or credit risk management framework selected according to their holding purpose and risk characteristics. 

For securities held as “available-for-sale securities,” the upper limits are also set in terms of price fluctuation risk.

  Regarding stocks of subsidiaries, assets and liabilities of subsidiaries are managed on a consolidated basis, and risks related to stocks of 
affiliates are recognized separately. Their risk as equity is not measured as upper limits on the allowable amount of risk are set for stocks 
of subsidiaries and affiliates, and the limits are established within the “risk capital limit” of SMFG, taking into account the financial and 
business situations of the subsidiaries and affiliates.

2. Valuation of Securities in Banking Book and Other Significant Accounting Policies

Stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates are carried at amortized cost using the moving-average method. Available-for-sale securities with market 
prices (including foreign stocks) are carried at their average market prices during the final month of the fiscal year. Securities other than 
these securities are carried at their fiscal year-end market prices (cost of securities sold is calculated using primarily the moving-average 
method) and those with no available market prices are carried at cost using the moving-average method.
  Net unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities and net of income taxes are reported as a component of “net assets.” Derivative 
transactions are carried at fair value.

All assets and liabilities held in the trading book — therefore, subject to calculation of the market risk equivalent amount — are transactions 
with high market liquidity. Securities and monetary claims are carried at the fiscal year-end market price, and derivatives such as swaps, 
futures and options are stated at amounts that would be settled if the transactions were terminated at the consolidated balance sheet date.

■ Interest Rate Risk in Banking Book

Interest rate risk in the banking book fluctuates significantly depending on the method of recognizing maturity of demand deposits (such 
as current accounts and ordinary deposits from which funds can be withdrawn on demand) and the method of predicting early withdrawal 
from fixed-term deposits and prepayment of consumer loans. Key assumptions made by SMBC in measuring interest rate risk in the banking 
book are as follows.

1. Method of Recognizing Maturity of Demand Deposits

The total amount of demand deposits expected to remain with the bank for the long term (with 50% of the lowest balance during the past 
5 years as the upper limit) is recognized as a core deposit amount and interest rate risk is measured for each maturity with 5 years as the 
maximum term (the average is 2.5 years).

2. Method of Estimating Early Withdrawal from Fixed-term Deposits and Prepayment of Consumer Loans

The rate of early withdrawal from fixed-term deposits and the rate of prepayment of consumer loans are estimated and the rates are used to 
calculate cash flows used for measuring interest rate risk.

A. Preparation of Data Input into the Quantification Model

In order to estimate the frequency of occurrence of “low-frequency and high-severity” events, which is the purpose of risk control 
assessment, we estimate the loss frequency in terms of four loss amounts (¥100 million, ¥1 billion, ¥5 billion, and ¥10 billion) for 
each scenario, then input the total amount by loss event type for each entity, namely, SMFG (consolidated), SMBC (consolidated), and 
SMBC (nonconsolidated), into the quantification model.
  At SMFG and SMBC, by using a different assessment method according to loss event type and organizational classification, we 
obtain a proper grasp of operational risk profile of the Group. The following section provides typical calculation examples for scenarios 
of SMBC domestic business offices.

(A) Deriving and Scoring Scenarios

a. Deriving Scenarios

In order to grasp all potential risks of a business/product, we first identify “business processes & /products” stipulated in the 
“Common Procedures of Operations.” Then, we derive all possible scenarios for the generation of a loss event of prescribed 
magnitude by breaking down the operation process of each “business processes & /products” into “processing types.”
  We evaluate each individual scenario on an operation process basis.

b. Scenario Assessment

In order to assess scenarios, it is necessary to quantify loss frequency and amount for each scenario. At SMBC, in order to quantify 
loss frequency for each scenario, we execute risk control assessments on each scenario.

In risk assessment, in order to measure the easiness of loss occurrence in each operation process before taking into account the 
risk management (control) situation, we set standards for various assessment items — transaction volume, volatility of transaction 
volume, time limits and so on — and the operation process is scored on how well the standards are met.

(B) Quantifying Loss Frequency of Each Scenario

a. Generation of “Average Frequency Table” for Domestic Business Offices

To quantify loss frequency for domestic branches, we assume future loss frequency is similar to historical loss frequency. And we 
generate an average frequency table, which is used to estimate future loss frequency. The average frequency table comprises rows 
of total risk score and columns of total control score and the number of loss occurrences in a one-year period for each combination 
of scores is given. 
  As risk and control assessment items are expected to have different loss occurrence contribution ratios, we analyze their loss 
occurrence contribution ratios for each assessment item by executing a regression analysis and weight each assessment item.

b. Quantifying Loss Frequency of Each Scenario

Total risk assessment score and total control assessment score are calculated for each scenario taking into account the weight of 
each assessment item described above. Then, the loss frequency of each scenario (the number of times the loss event described in 
the scenario occurs during a one-year period) is estimated using the average frequency table.

(C) Quantifying Loss Amount for Each Scenario

In order to quantify the loss amount for each scenario, we generate loss distribution for each “business process & product” by using 
the historical transaction data of SMBC. Specifically, we assume that the historical transaction volume follows a log-normal 
distribution (distribution in which the logarithm of a variable follows the normal distribution) for each “business process & product” 
and generate the loss-severity distribution. 

(D) Estimating the Frequency of Occurrence of the “Low-Frequency and High-Severity” Events

In order to estimate the probability of occurrence in terms of four loss amounts (¥100 million, ¥1 billion, ¥5 billion, and ¥10 
billion) for each scenario, we use a log-normal distribution function for each scenario.
  Because we assume the log-normal distribution to each “business process & product,” in case one loss event occurs in a one-year 
period, potential loss can be regarded as likewise arising from log-normal distribution. Therefore, in this case, we estimate the 
probability of occurrence of four loss amounts by substituting each loss amount for the loss amount of log-normal distribution.
In case that one loss event occurs in a one-year period, the method described above is followed. However, in case that several 
numbers of loss events occur in a one-year period, it is conceivable that the events occurred independently of each other. Therefore, 
the probability of occurrence of several loss events can be calculated by the probability of one loss event raised to the power of its loss 
frequency.
  As we quantify the loss frequency for each scenario using the average frequency table for loss events over a one-year period, we 
are able to estimate the probability of four loss amounts by the probability arising from the above log-normal distribution function, 
raised to the power of loss frequency derived from the frequency table.
  After estimating the loss frequency in terms of the four loss amounts for each scenario, we sum results for each loss event type 
and input them into the quantification model for SMFG (consolidated), SMBC (consolidated), and SMBC (nonconsolidated).

B. Verification of Scenarios Using Three Data Elements 

At SMFG and SMBC, the verifications of the assessments of scenarios using internal loss data, external loss data, and BEICFs 
(hereinafter, “3 data elements”) are implemented periodically. Specifically, SMFG and SMBC use these data and information and use 
them to determine, periodically, whether there are any scenarios that have been omitted and whether the assessments of the scenarios 
are appropriate to ensure the completeness and appropriateness of the scenarios. 

(A) Reassessment of Scenarios Using Internal Loss Data

Both SMFG and SMBC, in principle, compile internal loss data on all gross loss amounts of at least one yen. From the data, internal 
loss data which fulfill the established criteria are drawn, and the content of the related loss events is considered; then, a judgment 
is made regarding whether or not to review the scenario in question. Specifically, we pose a number of issues to consider, such as 
whether the scenario exists at SMBC, and, if so, whether the deviation between the actual loss and the assessed value of the scenario 
is within the tolerance range. In considering these issues, we follow a set pattern of logical reasoning in making a decision on 
whether the scenario should be revised. 
  When we decide it is necessary to revise the scenario, we make a reassessment based on the internal loss data. In this process, we 
consider redeveloping and reassessing the scenario and other related matters to ensure that the internal loss data is properly reflected 
in the scenario.

(B) Reassessment of Scenarios Using External Loss Data

At SMFG and SMBC, we have a database containing more than 7,000 cases of external losses that have been taken from the mass 
media, including newspapers, and purchased from data vendors. A framework has been created to enable the sharing of this database 
across the Group.

From this database, we draw external loss data which fulfill the established criteria, and the content of the related loss events is 

considered; then, a judgment is made regarding whether or not to revise the scenario in question. Specifically, we pose a number 
of issues to consider, such as whether the scenarios in question exist at SMBC, and, if so, whether the deviation between the actual 
loss and the assessed value of the scenario is within the tolerance range. In considering these issues, we follow a set pattern of logical 
reasoning in making a decision on whether the scenario should be reviewed.
  When we decide it is necessary for the scenario to be reviewed, we make a reassessment based on the external loss data. In this 
process, we consider deriving and reassessing the scenario and other related matters to ensure that the external loss data is properly 
reflected in the scenario.

(C) Reassessment of Scenarios Using BEICFs

At SMFG and SMBC, we compile data related to changes in laws and regulations, changes in internal rules, policies and procedures, 
and new business, products and process, all of which are business environment and internal control factors (BEICFs). We use this 
information to consider periodically whether our scenarios should be reconsidered, and, even for events other than those listed 
previously, when major changes occur in the business environment, our systems provide, as necessary, for the consideration of 
whether scenarios should be revised.
  When we decide it is necessary for the scenario to be reviewed, we make a reassessment based on the information related to 
changes and other factors in BEICFs. In this process, we consider redeveloping and reassessing the scenario and other related matters 
to ensure that the changes in BEICFs are properly reflected in our scenarios.

(2) Measurement Using the Quantification Model

When calculating operational risk using the quantification model, firstly, we input seven-year historical internal loss data (realized 
risks) and the data on the frequency of “low-frequency and high-severity” events (potential risks) in terms of four loss amounts, which 
have been estimated through risk control assessments, and generate a loss distribution. Secondly, we use this distribution to estimate 
the maximum loss amount with a 99.0 percentile confidence interval (hereinafter referred to as 99.0% VaR).  Thirdly, we multiply this 
maximum loss by a number, which we call “the risk capital conversion factor,” to estimate 99.9% VaR. Finally, we calculate required 
capital by using a multiplier that has been determined based on the number of times in which actual losses have exceeded predicted 
losses through the use of back testing. In estimation of the aggregated loss distribution, we need to estimate the loss severity and 
frequency distribution.

In addition, we confirm whether the quantification model is functioning appropriately and conservatively in measuring operational 

risk by implementing various types of sensitivity analysis and verification tests.
  The following chart puts the main points of this quantification method in order and explains how the results of measurement are 
verified.

Capital Ratio Information

A. Measurement Using the Quantification Model
(A) Estimation of Loss Severity Distribution

a. Smoothed Bootstrap Method

We employ the “smoothed bootstrap” method for generating the loss distribution. The smoothed bootstrap method is one of the 
methods that connect the distribution, of the realized risk and the potential risk event, smoothly. Under this method, no 
assumptions are made about the shape of the distribution as a whole, but assumptions are made on the individual distribution 
related to realized individual losses. Therefore, this method takes advantage of the widely known parametric method (method 
assuming a distribution) as well as the non-parametric one (method not assuming a distribution).
  Under the non-parametric method, if we use historical internal loss data to generate the loss severity distribution, we are not 
able to create the samples outside the actual observation points, and also it is particularly difficult to create a distribution with 
a fat tail. However, through the use of the method that can combine such data (on actual observations) with data on potential 
risks, it becomes possible to create large losses that occur rarely (with a potential impact) and that have not actually been found 
in historical internal loss data. In generating the distribution, while “high-frequency low-severity” events are based on sufficient 
historical internal loss data volume, for “low-frequency high-severity” events in the tail of the distribution, the historical internal 
data volume is insufficient. This approach makes it possible to reflect the severity (frequency of occurrence) of potential risk that 
has been assessed in the risk control assessments. In this way, using this model, realized risks and potential risks can be combined 
with congruity.

In estimating the loss distribution under this method, the Kernell function (partially assumed function) is applied to the loss 

data by the pile-up of functions. In particular, the log-normal distribution is applied as the Kernell function.

b. Supplementing Results of Risk Control Assessments with Extreme Value Theory

In order to capture potential risks, a statistical method known as Extreme Value Theory is used in addition to the results of risk 
control assessments. Extreme Value Theory is the statistical assessment method by which risks that may occur in the future 
accompanying larger losses than the actually observed ones in the internal loss data can be quantified, and fulfills the role of 
supplementing the risk control assessments.

(B) Estimation of Loss Frequency Distribution

The Poisson distribution (probability distribution often used in estimating the number of occurrences of rare events) is used for 
generating the loss frequency distribution. To estimate the Poisson distribution, it is necessary to estimate the average number of 
annual losses, but in this model, we do not simply take the annual average of all cases of losses for the entire period (several fiscal 
years) but instead, estimate the annual average number of loss cases for each fiscal year individually. Through this approach, we are 
able to take account of the deviations in the historical incidence of losses for different periods and are able to estimate loss cases that 
may occur in the future more appropriately.

(C) Risk Capital Conversion Factor γ

We calculate 99.0% VaR from the estimated aggregated loss distribution, and then multiply the risk capital conversion factor  
γ (gamma) in order to compute 99.9% VaR. By introducing γ it is unnecessary to estimate 99.9% VaR directly which can be 
estimated with lower accuracy, and it provides with stable estimation results by estimating 99.0% VaR which can be estimated with 
higher accuracy.
  The factor γ means the ratio between 99.9% VaR and 99.0% VaR. In other words, it is the risk profile of the loss distribution 
and an indicator for the characteristics of the tail part of the distribution. The risk profile of the loss distribution is different for each 
loss event type, by which the calculation is performed. In addition, we have verified statistically that it could differ among SMFG 
(consolidated), SMBC (consolidated), and SMBC (nonconsolidated). To reflect their characteristics, we set a different value of γ for 
each entity. There is a tendency for γ to become smaller, etc., when there is a distribution of large expected losses or when the tail of 
the distribution is highly dense.
  When setting γ initially, we conduct an analysis, taking into account the possibility of changes in the risk profiles of many types 
of loss distributions, and set values that maintain the stability and the conservativeness of capital. In addition, we assess changes 
in the risk profiles of the most recent loss distributions, including the present one, and, when changes are above a certain level, 
we conduct a review of the γ values. This makes it possible to keep values of γ appropriate to changes in the risk profile of the loss 
distribution and calculate stable values of required capital.

(D) Calculation of Required Capital

We calculate required capital by multiplying the 99.9% VaR calculated in the previous section by the multiplier for each loss 
event type that has been determined based on the number of breaches in back testing. As will be mentioned later, back testing 
is conducted periodically, and, when realized risk is found to be greater than the risks estimated with the quantification model (back 
testing excess), we take necessary steps, such as multiplying by the multiplier determined through prior analysis, to maintain the 
conservativeness of required capital estimates.
  We then add the required capital amounts calculated for each loss event type to compute the required capital for SMFG 
(consolidated), SMBC (consolidated), and SMBC (nonconsolidated).
  Please note that in calculating required capital, we do not subtract expected losses.

B. Verification of the Quantification Model

We conduct a range of sensitivity and verification tests to ensure that the measurement results of the quantification model are 
appropriate (quantification accuracy) and to confirm that our model is capable of measuring the amounts corresponding to the 
maximum losses from operational risk that may be incurred for a one year holding period, with a one-sided 99.9 percentile confidence 
interval. In the following paragraphs, we would like to explain the methods for assessing the quantification accuracy of our 
measurements and the framework we have in place for regular verifications.

(A) Verification of Quantification Accuracy

We have confirmed the reliability of the quantification model through a verification process from various perspectives. Specifically, 
we obtain a quantitative grasp of the possibilities for variation in measurement results that may arise from preconditions or 
assumptions made at the time the models were designed. In particular, we assess the possibilities for underestimating required 
capital and the possible magnitude of such underestimates. Then, in our periodic verification framework, which is described below, 
we make analyses of how to compensate for such underestimates. We apply our understanding of the possibilities for 
underestimation to the multiplier derived from back testing, and, if the accuracy of the quantification model deteriorates, we 
introduce a framework for making adjustments in the multiplier to avoid underestimating the amount of required capital.

(B) Implementation of Regular Verification Process

To confirm the appropriateness of the quantification model on a continuing basis, we conduct a regular verification process. 
Specifically, there are two types of verifications. One is back testing, which enables us to make a comprehensive judgment on the 
appropriateness of measurement results, and the other is pre-testing, in which we verify the accuracy of the quantification model 
prior to conducting actual measurements. In the following paragraphs, we present an explanation of these two test types. 

a. Back Testing

In conducting back tests, we compare the estimates made by the quantification model with the maximum loss arising from 
business activities to verify on an ex post facto basis whether the measurement results obtained from the model are conservative 
enough and appropriate. When actual losses become greater than the losses estimated by the model (actual losses exceed the 
estimate when back tests are conducted), we apply the multiplier factor in accordance with the number of excesses in order to 
ensure conservativeness of quantification results.
  Back testing is a well-known method for verifying comprehensively the appropriateness of VaR (statistical) models. We 
employ the test to obtain the maximum loss amount with the given confidence interval which the tests work effectively. By 
comparing the test results with the losses that actually occur, we increase the effectiveness of back testing.

b. Pre-testing

Pre-testing is conducted periodically, prior to use of the model for actual measurements, to verify whether the possibility of 
underestimation is increasing (model risk is rising), since it is possible that the multiplier used in back testing may lead to 
underestimation. As a result of pre-test verifications, we are able to confirm, on a continuing basis, whether the multiplier used 
in back testing is conservative enough or model risk is emerging.

3. Usage of Insurance to Mitigate Risk

SMFG had not taken measures to mitigate operational risk through insurance coverage for exposures.
