Message from Top Management

Dear Fellow Stakeholders, 

We sincerely thank you for your continued support and patronage. We would like to present the 
initiatives we implemented in fiscal 2014 (fiscal year ended March 2015) and our management 
policies going forward. 

Principal Initiatives in Fiscal 2014

In  fiscal  2014,  the  Japanese  economy  continued  to 

recover moderately after a temporary dip in economic 

activity due to a slump in consumer demand after the 

rush of purchasing ahead of the consumption tax rate 

hike  in  April  2014.  Outside  Japan,  although  emerg-

ing  countries  lacked  growth  momentum,  economies 

continued to recover led by developed countries. The 

U.S. economy continued to improve driven by domes-

tic demand, and the European economies moderately 

recovered despite sovereign debt issues. 

Against this backdrop, we implemented the follow-

ing initiatives to achieve the management goals of our 

medium-term management plan for the three years from 

fiscal 2014 to fiscal 2016, which we announced in May 

2014.

First, we fully revised the domestic business structure 

of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) in April 

2014 for the first time since its establishment, with the 

aim of enhancing our capability to address our clients’ 

needs, which are becoming more diverse and sophisti-

cated, and to deliver higher value-added services. 

Specifically, for large corporate clients, we enhanced 

our business structure with the aim of quickly making 

proposals tailored to their needs, responding to their 

businesses becoming global and more cross-border. 

Measures we implemented at SMBC include increasing 

the number of Corporate Banking Departments, intensify-

ing the collaboration with SMBC Nikko Securities, further 

promoting a seamless operation between its domestic 

and international offices, and leveraging our extensive 

knowledge of various industries on a global basis.

For medium and small-sized corporate clients, we 

actively  extended  loans  and  tailored  our  services  to 

meet the financial needs of each individual company. In 

addition, with the aim of quickly and comprehensively 

addressing the needs of business owners both as a cor-

porate manager and as an individual, we established a 

new area marketing structure, Area Main Offices, within 

SMBC.  Furthermore,  we  launched  a  “Japan  Growth 

Strategy Cross-Functional Team” as an organization-wide 

body, in order to contribute to the economic growth of 

Japan by supporting clients in sectors, such as agricul-

ture, healthcare, energy and infrastructure, that will under-

pin the Japanese economy five and ten years from now. 

  Regarding  individual  clients,  we  endeavored  to 

increase the number of accounts and assets under man-

agement through initiatives such as expanding the busi-

ness model, where SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities

and strengthen our client base.

capability to meet their needs. We also accelerated the 

seamless operation between the domestic and inter-

national offices and responded quickly to the needs of 

Japanese corporate clients; expanded our global office 

network into markets where future growth is expected; 

and strengthened our relationship with leading finan-

cial institutions in each country, including investing in

Vision for the next decade

We will become a global financial group that, by earning the highest trust of  
our customers, leads the growth of Japan and the Asian region

We will become 
a truly Asia-centric institution

We will develop 
the best-in-class earnings base in Japan

We will realize true globalization and continue to evolve our business model

In addition, for institutional investors, we established

Three-year management goals

❶ Develop and evolve client-centric business models for main domestic and international businesses
❷ Build a platform for realizing Asia-centric operations and capture growth opportunities
❸ Realize sustainable growth of top-line profit while maintaining soundness and profitability
❹ Upgrade corporate infrastructure to support next stage of growth

distribute financial products through measures such as 

SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities creating a structure 

for regional banks to jointly finance overseas project 

financing led by SMBC. We also promoted the “SMBC” 

brand  by  SMBC  becoming  a  special  sponsor  of  the 

Nippon Series professional baseball championship.

As  a  result  of  these  initiatives,  we  made  a  good 

start in the first year of our medium-term management 

plan. Regarding the financial results of Sumitomo Mitsui 

Financial  Group  (SMFG),  the  consolidated  ordinary 

profit was ¥1,321.2 billion and consolidated net income 

was ¥753.6 billion, exceeding the targets announced 

in November 2014 by ¥121.2 billion and ¥53.6 billion 

respectively. Moreover, we are on track to achieving all 

the financial targets of the plan.

Management Policies for Fiscal 2015

Our basic policy for fiscal 2015, the second year of the 

medium-term management plan, is as follows: “acceler-

ate key initiatives in accordance with management goals, 

produce results, and move reform forward vigorously” 

and “anticipate changes and be proactive, make a dif-

ference with SMFG/SMBC’s on-the-ground capabilities, 

and create business opportunities.” We will continue to 

firmly contribute to the Japanese economy as a lead-

ing financial institution in Japan, as various measures 

for economic revitalization are progressed by public and 

private sectors. At the same time, we will move initiatives 

forward for our sustainable growth, including corporate 

governance. There is a movement toward strengthen-

ing and improving corporate governance in Japan, as 

demonstrated by the implementation of the Corporate 

Governance Code for listed companies in June 2015. 

We will increase our corporate value over the mid to 

long term by further strengthening and improving the 

management structure for transparent, fair, timely and 

decisive decision-making through initiatives including 

increasing the number of SMFG’s outside directors in 

line with our policy that one-third or more of the board 

comprise of independent outside directors with diverse 

knowledge and experience.

◎  Initiatives to achieve the management goals
(1)  Develop and evolve client-centric business models 

for main domestic and international businesses

We will enhance our capability to address the increas-

ingly diverse and sophisticated needs of our clients by 

creating  a  stronger  franchise  both  domestically  and 

internationally. We will achieve this by fine tuning our 

domestic business which was developed through the 

restructuring last fiscal year and fully implementing the 

transformation of our international business model.

For  large  corporate  clients,  we  will  continue  to 

strengthen the collaboration between SMBC and SMBC 

Nikko Securities and accelerate the seamless operation 

of domestic and international offices, in an aim to deliver 

higher quality services to a wider range of clients.

For medium and small-sized corporate clients, we 

aim to enhance our capability to meet the financial needs 

of each individual company by reinforcing our on-the-

ground capabilities through the development of talented 

professionals capable of supporting their wide-ranging 

needs. As for business owners, we strive to provide 

added value by accelerating initiatives to comprehen-

sively address their needs, both as a corporate man-

ager and as an individual, through one-stop-services. 

Moreover, we will proactively contribute to the growth of 

the Japanese economy by providing financial services 

leveraging our extensive knowledge and information on 

agriculture, healthcare, energy, infrastructure, and other 

growth industries led by the Japan Growth Strategy 

Cross-Functional Team. We will also sponsor the Tokyo 

Olympic  and  Paralympic  Games  in  2020  as  a  Gold 

Partner in the “Banking” category as one of our initiatives 

to contribute to the growth of the Japanese economy.

For individual clients, we aim to fully meet their diver-

sifying asset management needs by further promoting 

the  collaboration  between  SMBC  and  SMBC  Nikko 

Securities. We will also strengthen our capability to meet 

the needs of affluent individuals through the retail banking 

business of Citibank Japan, scheduled to be acquired by 

SMBC Trust Bank in November 2015 subject to regula-

tory approvals. Further, we aim to enhance our presence 

and services targeting mass-affluent clients with SMBC 

advertising products and services and disseminating 

information  through  social  networking  services,  and 

enhancing services utilizing smartphones. In the con-

sumer finance business, we will further strengthen the 

collaboration  between  SMBC  and  SMBC  Consumer 

Finance, and develop the business on a group basis.

For globally operating non-Japanese corporate cli-

ents, we will enhance our products providing capability 

and promoting collaboration among offices in western 

countries and Asia in order to strengthen relationships 

and promote cross-selling.

In addition to the above, for institutional investors, 

we will continue to build and strengthen the group-wide 

framework for originating and distributing financial prod-

ucts. Regarding information and communication technol-

ogy (ICT) and transaction banking business, important

Business Overview

 ■ Consumer Banking

the SMFG Group, will continue to provide high-value services to 

clients.

SMFG group companies work cooperatively to provide better 

and highly appreciated services for individual clients. SMBC 

strives to advance its business model daily in order to develop 

the leading comprehensive financial service business most 

trusted by clients by appropriately accommodating individual 

clients’ diversifying financial needs reflected with the accelerated 

trend of “Saving to Investment,” the times of major inheritance 

and changes in clients’ lifestyles.

Asset Management
SMBC  has  implemented  the  invest-

ment  trusts  portfolio  of  “SMBC  Fund 

Selection”  by  classifying 

into 

four 

categories for enabling clients to select 

appropriate investment trusts according 

to  their  needs.  Furthermore,  we  offer 

publicly-offered  investment  trusts  in 

Japan which appropriately accommodate 

clients’ diverse asset management needs by selecting the funds 

invested in preferred securities issued by financial institutions of 

advanced countries. We have also started to offer an automatic 

deposit service for foreign currency in order to appropriately 

accommodate the needs for such deposits. We accommodate 

clients’ needs by implementing measures to offer preferential 

interest rates. Working with SMBC Nikko Securities, SMBC 

continues to offer its wide-ranging clients intermediary services 

for financial products in areas such as foreign-currency bonds.

Further  as  for  “SMBC  Fund  Wrap”  (the  discretionary 

management through investment trust taking into account the 

clients’ particular needs for their asset management), we are 

proactively promoting as a product appropriate for asset man-

agement by implementing measures to offer preferential inter-

est rates for clients purchasing the product. As for the Nippon 

Individual Savings Account program (“NISA”), the tax exemption 

system for small sum of investments and “Junior NISA,” the 

tax exemption system for minors which is planned to be newly 

established after fiscal 2015, we provide information on NISA 

to clients who would request receiving such information. SMBC 

and SMBC Nikko Securities strive to provide products and ser-

vices able to accommodate individual clients’ diverse needs by 

taking advantage of both companies’ knowhow for the consult-

ing business accumulated over the years and through integra-

tion of their clients base and office networks. In July 2014, we 
began implementing at all branches a new business promotion 

model (“bank-securities integration model”) which makes maxi-

mum utilization of the respective characteristics of SMBC and 

SMBC Nikko Securities. In February 2015, we began offering 

the “bank-securities integrated asset formation package.” We, 

Life Insurance and Estate
SMBC  offers  life  insurance  policies  over  the  counter  at  its 

branches throughout Japan. We additionally provide services 

enabling our clients to request information materials without 

visiting our branches, as long as they make such requests by 

using ATMs, the internet or the telephone by consulting with 

experienced operators. We offer permanent life insurance which 

ensures the security for death and disability for a lifetime and 

enables savings for the future, and also individual variable annu-

ity insurance denominated in foreign currency to accommodate 

clients’ needs for asset growth while protecting their valuable 

assets from inflation due to economic recovery and growth in 

the future. Further, as a response to the tax exemption measure 

of the capital transfer tax applicable to a lump sum transfer of 

educational funds, we began offering ordinary savings accounts 

(tax exempt account for educational fund transfer) by enhancing 

our product portfolio for further accommodating clients’ needs 

for leaving and accumulating assets to their family. In addition, 

we meet the inheritance-related needs of clients by offering 

testamentary trust services for drafting, storage and execution 

of wills, including “inheritance disposition” services by assisting 

with complicated procedures required for inheritance or “Relay 

of Trust to Family” services enabling clients and family to regu-

larly receive funds. Furthermore, since March 2015, we began 

offering  the  “SMBC 

Reverse  Mortgage” 

service  in  order  to 

flexibly  support  the 

“life after retirement” 

of elderly clients.

Consumer Loans and 
Settlement
SMBC began offering the “Housing Loan 

with Joint Life Insurance (Cross Support)” 

since April 2015. 

As dual-income couples of younger 

generations are increasing, this is a prod-

uct to exempt the balance of housing loan 

repayments in the event of death of either 

spouse of such couples.

In addition, in the event that the borrower of our housing 

loan is diagnosed by a medical doctor with the predefined 

6

SMFG 2015 
 
 
conditions of eight major illnesses (three potentially fatal and 

five serious and chronic illnesses) or that the client’s house was 

damaged by a natural disaster; we offer to provide the “Housing 

Loan with Eight Major Illnesses Security Insurance” which fully 

exempts repayments for the loan or the “Housing Loan with 

Special Provision for Partial Exemption for Payments” which 

partially  exempts  repayments  depending  on  the  degree  of 

damage, respectively. Further, we offer the “Life Event Support 

Package” which is the card loan offering special interest rates 

especially made for clients who plan to take housing loans, in 

order to accommodate such clients’ diverse financial needs for 

such as childbirth, education or renovation after the home pur-

chase. We are working to develop products and enhance our 

services in order to accommodate the diverse needs of clients.

  We also substantially improved the convenience for clients 

requesting housing loans by enabling them to complete their 

applications for making either full or partial prepayments, or 

changing the interest rate to floating or fixed, by utilizing SMBC 

Direct,  the  online  banking  service.  In  other  improvements, 

SMBC has assigned “Financing Facilitation Consultant Experts” 

at all branches and eight other locations throughout Japan 

where a special department is established for loan support ser-

vices to provide consultations for clients. For housing finance for 

clients affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, we offer 

housing loans with special rates, and we also offer our existing 

clients consultation services on more flexible loan repayments 

for those who have already taken out SMBC housing loans. 

We continue to provide meticulous support for, and promptly 

and  appropriately  respond  to,  clients  who  have  difficulties 

making housing loan repayments. As for SMBC unsecured 

consumer loans (card loans), guaranteed by SMBC Consumer 

Finance Co., Ltd., the total loan balance as of March 2015 

has exceeded ¥520 billion due to the steady increase of loans. 

Further, in April 2015, a new series of television commercials 

started to be on air. These television commercials were made 

for increasing awareness of SMBC’s card loans by simply focus-

ing the telephone number, 0120-923-923.

Topics

◆ Enhancement of the SMBC brand 
SMBC  launched  a  new  promotional  campaign  for  fiscal 
2014 for enhancing the “SMBC” brand by targeting clients 
primarily in younger generations by putting up the campaign 
key words of “For Our Future.” These television commercials 
depict  images  of  young  people  who  just  graduated  and 
started their job, aspiring for their bright future with great 
expectations but also feeling uneasy. In September 2014, 
SMBC opened its official accounts with Facebook and LINE, 
as a branding means taking advantage of the social media 
which is increasingly utilized by mostly younger generations, 
for creating new contacts with clients and fostering a feeling 
of friendliness for clients to further develop transactions with 
SMBC. Concurrently, SMBC developed 
its  original  image  character,  called,  
“Midosuke”;  and  as  of  March  31,  
2015, the number of fans for Facebook 
has reached 150,000 and the number 
of  friends  for  LINE  has  exceeded 
5,680,000, having the most number of 
registered followers among Japanese 
banks.

◆ Implementation of the Opening-Account 

Application

SMBC implemented the “Opening-Account Application” for 
smartphones in February 2015 for improving convenience 
when opening an account by enabling clients to apply to 
open an ordinary savings account without having to visit a 
branch and to receive a cash card at home. We will further 
enhance our response to transactions made by smartphones 
while providing meticulous services appropriate to clients’ 
needs.

◆ Revision of ATM Services
In April 2015, SMBC made changes to its ATM services to 
improve convenience by charging no fees all day even for 
deposits made at ATMs located at SMBC branches after 
business  hours,  and  increasing  the  number  of  ATMs  in 
operation for 24 hours a day, changing the standard business 
hours to from 7 a.m. to 12 midnight.
  We continue to improve and enhance our ATM services 
according to lifestyles of clients.

◆ SMBC received “COPC® CSP Standards” in 

March 2015 for call center operations.

SMBC was the first Japanese bank to be certified with the 
“COPC® CSP Standards” which is the international quality 
assurance standard for center operations for improving cli-
ents’ satisfaction and realizing efficiency of call center opera-
tions. The COPC standards measure and certify promptness 
and accuracy of services provided to clients and efficiency of 
center operations for achieving and maintaining at excellent 
level for clients’ satisfaction.

SMFG 2015 ■ Services for Corporate Clients

Providing funding to medium-sized  
corporations and SMEs
SMBC established its “Area” system in April 2014 in order to 
enhance its response to the needs for comprehensive corporate 
and consumer banking transactions of medium-sized and SME 
clients, including increasing business succession needs. The 
“Area” system enables to us to provide specialized services 
taking advantage of the respective networks of SMFG/SMBC 
group companies, in addition to providing consultation services 
to corporate and individual clients. In addition to providing loans 
for business, SMFG/SMBC group companies provide meticu-
lous support for clients’ diverse needs, including consultations 
on overseas business development or business-matching, busi-
ness succession, corporate system reform; and consultations 
for the individual client’s asset management, loans, inheritance, 
and asset succession.

SMBC continues to work to accommodate diverse needs of 
medium-sized corporations and SMEs clients and their owners 
who continue to support the Japanese economy.

Support for the establishment of new industry, 
new businesses and growing company
At SMBC, a department specializing in supporting clients of 
growing companies has been established at its head office. By 
cooperating with group companies including SMBC Venture 
Capital Co., Ltd. and SMBC Nikko Securities, we provide solu-
tions appropriate to the specific growth stage, such as providing 
loans especially made for growing companies, supporting the 
initial public offering of shares, or supporting the alliance with 
the major company. We provided loans to companies engaged 
in cloud computing and life science businesses through the 
“Growth Potential Evaluation Loan” which was launched for the 
purpose of strengthening lending to clients of growing compa-
nies. SMBC and the NEC group jointly established a venture 
fund in April 2012 for the purpose of supporting technology 
venture companies since their establishment; and in July 2013, 
we invested in the SMBC Agricultural Fund investing in agricul-
tural companies.

Furthermore, SMBC and the Group continue to support 
growing companies while cooperatively working with diverse 
external  entities  by  establishing  business  cooperation  with 
Japan Finance Corporation in July 2014 for the support of 
growing companies. 

Support for IPOs (IPO Navigator)
SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities jointly started providing 
free information service exclusively for the registered members 
of the “IPO Navigator” since July 2010, for consistently and 
comprehensively supporting clients who are considering going 
public. The IPO Navigator has become the one-stop platform 
for enabling clients to access any necessary information for 

IPO, enhanced by information provided by ten affiliated advisory 
companies and one sponsoring company. As of March 2015, 
the IPO Navigator is registered by clients of approximately 
1,000 companies. IPO Seminars, which have been regularly 
held since February 2011 by inviting business managers of IPO 
companies to speak at the seminars, have been received posi-
tively by participants who plan to make an initial public offering. 
In fiscal 2014, we held seminars in the three cities of Tokyo, 
Osaka, and Nagoya; and Mr. Yoshiyuki Sankai, the president 
of  CYBERDYNE  Inc.  (SMBC  Nikko  Securities  acted  as  the 
lead manager for its share offering) and Mr. Minoru Nishimura, 
the president of ENBIO HOLDINGS, INC. (listed on the Tokyo 
Stock Exchange Mothers market in 
March 2014) were guest speakers. 
The seminars were well received 
by participants. SMBC and SMBC 
Nikko Securities continue to sup-
port clients who wish to go public.

Development of solutions for clients dealing 
with environment, risk management and food 
safety issues
SMBC develops solutions for clients dealing with diverse social 
issues, such as of environmental problems for resource and 
energy conservation, or global warming; countermeasures for 
natural disasters; or ensuring food safety.

In 2006, SMBC started to offer the “SMBC-ECO Loan” for 
SMEs which obtained the certification for environment manage-
ment system; and Japan Research Institute subsequently devel-
oped the “SMBC Environmental Assessment Loans and Private 
Placement Bonds” to assess and rate the measures taken by 
clients for environment, and determine terms and conditions for 
loans according to the rating.

Subsequently, we derived from the similar arrangement to 
enhance the assessment-type loan products such as “SMBC 
Sustainable Building Assessment Loans and Private Placement 
Bonds,” “SMBC Food and Agriculture Assessment Loans and 
Private  Placement  Bonds,”  “SMBC  Business  Sustainability 
Assessment Loans and Private Placement Bonds” and “SMBC 
Sustainability  Assessment  Loans  and  Private  Placement 
Bonds,” for financially supporting clients of their initiatives for 
social issues.
  We will continue to support clients for their further advance-
ment through development of these solutions.

SMFG 2015Support for career education
As each university is required to enhance its “Career Education/ 
Guidance Program” in accordance with the policies set forth 
by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and 
Technology, SMBC puts its efforts into connecting the “needs of 
career education of universities” and “industrial affiliated needs 
of clients.” Specifically, SMBC cooperates with each university 
to support career education, and we also ask our clients to 
become instructors for the education programs to support the 
program. For instance, there is a problem-solving program that 
the client presents the business issue of “marketing of a new 
product development” and students and the person in charge 
of the company discuss in the program to jointly come up with 
a proposal for a resolution; or we offer lectures given by the 
client, including a founder of the venture company who speak 
on the trends in the industry and business from the perspective 
of developing entrepreneurs. Students commented that through 
practical learning with participating companies, they can work 
on to improve the competencies required in the society such 
as “problem solving,” “presentation skills” and “team work.” On 
the other hand, clients commented that innovative concepts 
and ideas of students may give them clues for new business 
opportunities, in addition to enhancing their CSR initiatives. We 
continue to contribute to our clients’ business development by 
providing assistance and support while cooperating beyond our 
business framework.

Support for overseas development
In the midst of clients’ increasing needs for overseas develop-
ment, SMBC’s Global Advisory Department provides detailed 
information  on  business  sectors  and  respective  laws  and 
regulations to clients who are actually considering the overseas 
development, in addition to holding seminars providing informa-
tion on such as global economic conditions or economic and 
financial developments of respective countries, and trends of 
overseas development made by Japanese companies. We pro-
vide clients with the up-to-date information of local conditions, 
relevant regulations and industrial trends. As for clients who 
have already developed their business overseas, we provide 
high-quality support and solutions for their business expan-
sion and business reorganizational needs. Further, the Global 
Business Promotion Department also supports clients’ general 
foreign exchange transactions by giving advice with respect to 
their trading transactions or holding practical seminars.

Support for management improvement, busi-
ness regeneration and business conversion
Even after the expiry of the SME Financing Facilitation Act, 
SMBC  continues  to  provide  efficient  financial  intermediary 
services and focus on management issues which clients are 
faced with, and to propose solutions appropriate to respective 
management issues or life phase in the client’s perspective. We 
strive to improve our consultation services by spending adequate 
time with the clients. Specifically, we provide numerous and 
diverse loan products in order to accommodate the needs of 
clients for financing and resolving management issues; and we 
also provide solutions for business referrals (as explained below), 
overseas business development, or support for business suc-
cession (please refer to p.12 for “Support for business and asset 
succession.”) Further, we also support clients for management 
improvement or business regeneration, while cooperating with 
external experts/professionals*1 or external organizations*2, by 
supporting measures for the plan of management improvement 
or giving advices for management improvement issues such as 
expense reduction or sale of assets.

*1  SMBC Consulting, certified tax accountants, certified public 

accountants, etc.

*2  Council supporting revitalization of SMEs, Regional Economy 

Vitalization Corporation of Japan, etc.

In particular, we continue to propose the most appropriate 
solutions and provide support for execution, while cooperat-
ing with the corporation supporting regeneration of businesses 
affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake or industrial res-
toration organizations, in order to provide solutions for clients 
affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake.

Measures for business referrals
SMBC  strives  to  refer  or  introduce  new  business  partners 
appropriate to the needs of clients by utilizing SMBC’s “business 
referral service” for individually referring and introducing clients 
individually, in addition to referring or introducing a group of 
clients to the purchasing department of major corporations, and 
holding the “Business Negotiation Session”* of specific subject 
matter to refer or introduce a group of clients.

*  In December 2014, the “Agribusiness-Matching” was held.

Under the current trend of globalization, the needs are even 
more diversified such as expanding distribution channels to 
a new overseas market or increasing suppliers mainly in the 
emerging countries.

In fiscal 2012, SMBC started to offer the “global business 
referral”  service  which  is  the  business-matching  with  non-
Japanese companies overseas to provide support and solutions 
for clients’ overseas business development through the process 
of business referral with non-Japanese companies overseas.

Currently, the business-referral is limited in certain areas of 
Asia; however, we are in the process of expanding the service 
by making an alliance with the Industrial Technology Research 
Institute in Taiwan, in order to appropriately accommodate the 
diverse needs of clients, through the global business-referral by 
taking advantage of SMFG’s domestic and overseas network.

local governments developed their “Regional Comprehensive 
Strategy” to work on initiatives for local revitalization. SMBC 
continues to support initiatives of the respective local govern-
ments, including the Hyogo Prefecture which executed the 
industrial development cooperation agreement with SMBC. We 
continue to work with clients on initiatives for local recreation 
by developing contacts between local governments and private 
companies which are proactive for local business development.

◆ Japan Growth Strategy Cross-Functional Team
SMBC  established  the  “Japan  Growth  Strategy  Cross-
Functional Team” (“CFT”) in April 2014, as a cross-departmental 
team to support, through financial businesses, the “indus-
tries” which continue to support Japan in 5 and 10 years 
through financial businesses and to contribute to the growth 
of the Japanese economy. The CFT collects information 
and knowledge related to growing sectors as considered by 
SMBC and the Group, and it specifically supports clients’ 
businesses in terms of finance and management by assist-
ing with origination through execution of the projects. In the 
foreseeable future, the CFT will support sectors which are 
subject to the Japanese Government’s Japan Revitalization 
Strategy, focusing on such as agriculture, healthcare, energy, 
and infrastructure. SMBC continues to contribute to the 
growth of clients and development of Japanese economy 
through these CFT’s activities, and it also accelerates creating 
the reputation that SMBC/SMFG is strong in growth areas.

◆ SMBC Nadeshiko Loan and Private Placement 

Bonds

SMBC began offering “SMBC Nadeshiko Loan and Private 
Placement Bonds” in January 2015 to support clients who 
promote initiatives for participation and advancement of 
women in business. When the loan is executed, the Japan 
Research Institute will measure in its own criteria and disclose 
conditions of the initiatives taken by the client for women’s 
participation  and  advancement  in  business,  and  it  also 
provides information on precedents resolving issues of such 
initiatives. SMBC continues to financially support clients’ 
initiatives for promoting participation and advancement of 
women in business. 

Measures for the Greater China region (People’s 
Republic of China, Hong Kong and Taiwan)
In order to provide attentive services for integrated domestic 
and overseas offices by taking advantage of knowhow accu-
mulated in Japan for the Greater China region where many 
Japanese  companies  have  expanded,  SMBC’s  domestic 
department  has  proceeded  to  plan  and  promote  transac-
tions with Japanese companies for Sumitomo Mitsui Banking 
Corporation  (China)  Limited,  and  Hong  Kong  and  Taipei 
branches since 2010 and 2011, respectively.

The Free Trade Experimental District was established in 
Shanghai in September 2013 to proceed with liberalization in 
the areas of finance and trading. SMBC (China) established a 
representative office in that district in February 2014, and we are 
accommodating clients’ new needs for such as cross-border 
fund management and support for new investments in deregu-
lated businesses. 

In February 2014, a representative office was also opened in 
Kunshan in Jiangsu Province. This brought our total number of 
offices in China to 16 offices, consisting of 9 branches, 6 repre-
sentative offices and the Dalian Representative Office of SMBC. 
Together with the Hong Kong and Taipei branches, we continue 
to develop a solid network in the Greater China region. As for 
additional internationalized renminbi business, the South China 
Department of Transaction Business Division established in 
Hong Kong mainly handles such business, the business results 
of which are steadily increasing. We will continue to provide 
up-to-date information and services in Japan and overseas, and 
focus to promote renminbi businesses.

SMBC strives to further improve its integrated services in 
Japan and overseas while cooperating with the SMFG Group 
companies that have expanded into the Greater China region 
such as SMBC Nikko Securities, Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and 
Leasing, and Sumitomo Mitsui Card.

Measures taken for vitalization of local 
regions in Japan

Measures taken jointly with local government entities 
and regional financial institutions
As the economy changes, the responsibilities and roles of local 
government entities and regional financial institutions are also 
diversifying. Consequently, the expectation for the support 
for local industrial development and overseas development of 
local companies continues to increase. The extensive network 
overseas and accurate and timely information collection will 
become  necessary  for  such  local  government  entities  and 
regional financial institutions. To serve such needs, we are form-
ing partnerships with local governments and regional financial 
institutions using SMFG networks within Japan and overseas to 
provide a wide range of services.

Furthermore, as of April 2015, SMBC has executed busi-
ness alliance agreements to support overseas businesses with 
THE MINATO BANK, LTD., Kansai Urban Banking Corporation, 
Mie Bank, Ltd. and seven other banks. As local recreation 
is being considered as an important policy issue, respective

seas projects increase in terms of diversifying portfolio and 
strengthening of earning capability, SMBC and local banks 
collaborated to develop a financeable scheme for several 
overseas project finance loans by utilizing our bank’s trust 
function. In November 2014, we executed a financing agree-
ment with The 77 Bank, Ltd. and The Iyo Bank, Ltd. With the 
increased number of investors utilizing this arrangement, we 
may possibly enhance project financing capability as a result 
of attracting domestic funds to finance overseas infrastruc-
ture projects.

SMBC  has  added  the  “Robot”  sector  to  its  existing 
growth sectors, consisting of “New Energy,” “Environment,” 
“Water,” “Resources,” “Healthcare,” and “Agriculture” in the 
Growth Industry Cluster, and it continues to work on generat-
ing new business models. SMBC will continue to provide 
support for clients for increasing new business opportunities 
in Japan and overseas by taking advantage of its wide range 
of knowledge and the network accumulated from alliances 
among industry-government-academia.

■ International Banking

SMFG strives to provide high value-added services tailored

of consistently providing up-to-date information and services 
by  closely  cooperating  with  other  SMFG  group  companies 
and overseas subsidiaries throughout the world, concentrating 
mainly on the three regional divisions of Asia-Pacific, Americas 
and EMEA.

Enhancing Initiatives for Asia
SMBC has been enhancing its initiatives in the Asian region for 
realizing the “Asia-Centric” operations.

Specifically, in April 2015, SMBC established the “Transaction 
Banking Solutions Dept., Asia Pacific Division” to enhance trans-
action banking operations in the said region, and also established 
the “Corporate Solutions Dept., Asia ” to improve its solution-
proposing capability. Further, we established the “Credit Dept., 
Asia Pacific Division” and “Credit Dept., East Asia” within Credit 
Management Dept., International Banking Unit, to develop the 
community-based and promptly-processed credit/settlement 
system, and also established the “Legal and Compliance Dept., 
Asia Pacific Division” to enhance the cross-regional compliance 
system. Furthermore, we established the “Treasury Dept., Asia 
Pacific Division” to integrally manage and advance ALM in Asia-
Pacific regions.

Through these initiatives, SMBC plans to develop global 
businesses by further increasing its presence in Asia and provid-
ing excellent services being provided in Asia even to clients in 
the Americas and Europe.

SMBC Aviation Capital Limited individually executed a pur-
chase agreement with SAS Airbus of France in July 2014 to 
purchase 115 aircraft and with The Boeing Company of U.S. in 
November 2014 to purchase 80 aircraft. Further, in the United

extensively accommodate the needs of clients by establishing 
the “Institutional Client Dept., Americas Division” and “Finance 
Strategy Dept., Americas Division.”

SMFG 2015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, 2015.

1. Operating Results
Operating results for fiscal 2014 include the results of 317 
consolidated subsidiaries and 50 subsidiaries and affiliates 
accounted for by the equity method. 

In fiscal 2014, consolidated net business profit declined 
by ¥28.1 billion year-on-year to ¥1,310.5 billion. Although 
consolidated gross profit increased largely due to increased 
profits from the Treasury Unit at SMBC resulting from ALM 
operations that quickly responded to market conditions 
and steady results of major subsidiaries such as Sumitomo 
Mitsui Finance and Leasing, SMBC Nikko Securities, 
Sumitomo Mitsui Card and SMBC Consumer Finance; 

general and administrative expenses were up as SMBC 
aimed at strengthening its overseas business, and SMBC 
Nikko Securities, Sumitomo Mitsui Card and other subsidiar-
ies aimed at enhancing the business structure to generate 
stronger top-line growth.

Ordinary profit after adjustment for total credit cost, 
net gains on stocks, and other items, declined by ¥111.2 
billion year-on-year to ¥1,321.2 billion. Net income after 
adjustment for extraordinary gains (losses) and income taxes 
declined by ¥81.7 billion to ¥753.6 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 consolidated balance sheet amounts. 
  Net unrealized gains (losses) on other securities, as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, included gains of ¥29,870 million and ¥17,031 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, 2015 and 2014, were reduced by ¥29,870 million and ¥17,031 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).

SMFG 2015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, 2015.

1. Operating Results
In fiscal 2014, gross banking profit increased by ¥76.1 billion 
year-on-year to ¥1,634.3 billion, and expenses (excluding 
nonrecurring losses) increased by ¥45.5 billion to ¥791.2 bil-
lion. As a result, banking profit (before provision for general 
reserve for possible loan losses) increased by ¥30.6 billion 
year-on-year to ¥843.1 billion. 

Ordinary profit, after the adjustment of banking profit 

(before provision for general reserve for possible loan losses) 
for non-recurring items such as credit costs and net gains 
on stocks, increased by ¥3.5 billion year-on-year to ¥956.0 
billion. 

Net income, after the adjustment of ordinary profit for 
extraordinary gains and losses, and income taxes and other 
taxes, increased by ¥37.8 billion year-on-year to ¥643.0 billion.

2. Income Analysis
Gross Banking Profit
Gross banking profit increased by ¥76.1 billion year-on-year 
to ¥1,634.3 billion. This mainly reflected an increase in gross 
international profit primarily due to an increase in interest on 
loans and bills discounted in line with asset growth mainly in 
Asia and the Americas, and an increase in gains on bonds. 
On the other hand, gross domestic profit declined mainly due 
to shrinking loan spreads resulting from intense competition.

Expenses
Expenses (excluding non-recurring losses) increased by ¥45.5 
billion year-on-year to ¥791.2 billion. This was mainly due to an 
increase in expenditures aimed at enhancing top-line growth 
such as to strengthen the overseas business, and also by the 
impact of an increase in the consumption tax rate.

Banking Profit
Banking profit (before provision for general reserve for pos-
sible loan losses) increased by ¥30.6 billion year-on-year to 
¥843.1 billion.

Extraordinary Gains (Losses)
Extraordinary losses increased by ¥2.3 billion year-on-year 
to ¥8.3 billion.

Net Income
Net income, after the adjustment of ordinary profit for 
extraordinary gains and losses and income taxes, increased 
by ¥37.8 billion year-on-year to ¥643.0 billion.

Nonrecurring Gains (Losses) (Credit Costs, etc.)
Nonrecurring gains were ¥112.9 billion, a deterioration of 
¥27.2 billion compared with the previous fiscal year. This 
was primarily due to declines in gains on reversal of reserve 
for possible loan losses and gains on stocks, although other 
non-recurring gains increased mainly due to decline in provi-
sion of reserve for possible losses on investments. 

Total credit cost—the total of provision for general reserve 

for possible loan losses, credit costs, gains on reversal of 
reserve for possible loan losses and recoveries of written-
off claims—was a net reversal of ¥80.1 billion, ¥43.8 billion 
lower in terms of gains compared with the previous year.

Ordinary Profit
As a result, ordinary profit increased by ¥3.5 billion year-on-
year to ¥956.0 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 (excluding stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates) (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 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, 2015 and 2014, included gains of ¥29,870 million and ¥17,031 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, 2015 and 2014, were reduced by ¥29,870 million and ¥17,031 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).

Risk Management

Basic Approach
As risks in the financial services increase in diversity and complexity, 

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

providing guidance when necessary.

SMFG has established the basic principles of Groupwide risk 

management in the “Policies on Comprehensive Risk Management.”

In the policies, we identify the location and the type of risk to be 

managed in accordance with strategic goals and business struc-

tures. We have set forth the fundamental principles for compre-

hensive risk management and manage each risk appropriately 

according to its characteristics.

(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 (includ-

ing  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  categories 

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.

(2)  Basic Policies for Risk Management
SMFG  has  established  the  “Principal  Policy  for  Group  Risk 

Management” for the comprehensive risk and risks to be managed, 

and we set forth the specific operational policies for appropriately 

conducting the risk management of the Group companies. Further, 

the Principal Policy is being reviewed regularly and as necessary.

Under SMFG’s Groupwide basic policies for risk management, 

all Group companies periodically carry out reviews of the basic 

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.

Risk management systems are in place at the individual 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 cat-

egories listed above, in addition to risks associated 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 con-

solidating 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 com-

prising the Corporate Risk Management Department and Credit & 

Investment Planning Department. The Corporate Risk Management 

Department—the unit’s planning department—comprehensively 

and systematically manages all categories of risk in cooperation

Integrated Risk Management

(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 

In this framework, risk capital includes credit concentration 

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

account under the Pillar 2 of Basel Capital Accord. In addition, we 

conduct risk capital-based management activities on a consolidated 

basis, including each Group company.

Liquidity risk is managed based on a framework consisting of 

setting upper limit for funding gaps, etc. Other risk categories are 

managed with procedures closely attuned to the nature of the risk.

System  risk  is  the  possibility  of  a  loss  arising  from  the  failure,  malfunction,  or  unauthorized  use  of 
computer systems.

Liquidity risk is defined as the uncertainty around the ability of the firm to meet debt obligations without 
incurring unacceptably large losses. Examples of such risk include the possible inability to meet current 
and future cash flow/collateral needs, both expected and unexpected. In such cases, the firm may be 
required to raise funds at less than favorable rates or be unable to raise sufficient funds for settlement.

(1) Risk Appetite Structure
We have clearly categorized our stances on risk taking and risk 

management into financial soundness, profitability, liquidity and 

others. As a general rule, we strive to achieve a quantitative grasp 

of the risks using risk appetite indicators. 

(2) Setting Risk Appetite Indicators
The target levels and limits of risk appetite indicators are decided 

by the Management Committee and the Board of Directors at the 

beginning of each fiscal year to be consistent with management 

targets, financial objectives and business plans, based on the 

risk-taking policy and portfolio plan. We also set various risk capital 

limits and upper limits for credit, market and liquidity risks as to be 

consistent with business plans, and the target levels and limits of 

risk appetite indicators.

(3) Monitoring Risk Appetite Indicators
We monitor the risk appetite indicators during the period. If they 

deviate from target levels or breach limits and so forth, the frame-

work allows us to discuss reviewing the business plans or other 

measures as necessary. Moreover, for certain risk appetite indica-

tors we also conduct testing to ensure that they will retain a certain 

level even under stress conditions.

credit portfolios quantitatively and using consistent standards.

Credit  risk  is  the  most  significant  risk  to  which  SMFG  is 

exposed. Without effective credit risk management, the impact of 

the corresponding losses on operations can be overwhelming.

The purpose of credit risk management is to keep credit risk 

exposure to a permissible level relative to capital, to maintain the 

soundness of Groupwide assets, and to ensure returns commen-

surate with risk. This leads to a loan portfolio that achieves high 

returns on capital and assets.

the Risk Management Unit is responsible for the comprehensive 

management of credit risk. This department drafts and administers 

credit policies, the internal rating system, credit authority guidelines, 

and credit application guidelines, and manages non-performing 

loans (NPLs) and other aspects of credit portfolio management. The 

department also cooperates with the Corporate Risk Management

At SMBC, to effectively manage the risk involved in indi-

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.

(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 

quantitative measures, when combined with qualitative analyses of 

industrial trends, the enterprise’s R&D capabilities, the competitive-

ness 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 

  We also provide loans to individuals who rent out properties 

such as apartments. The loan applications are subjected to a precise 

credit risk assessment process utilizing a risk assessment model 

that factors in the projected revenue from the rental business. The 

process is also used to provide advice to such customers on how to 

revise their business plans.

(b) Credit Monitoring System

At SMBC, in addition to analyzing loans at the application stage, 

the Credit Monitoring System is utilized to reassess obligor grades 

and review self-assessment and credit policies so that problems

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

ing 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 a credit risk capital limit for internal control purposes. 

Under this limit, sub-limits are set for each business unit. Regular 

monitoring is conducted to make sure that these limits are being fol-

lowed, thus ensuring appropriate overall management of credit risk.

(b) Controlling Concentration Risk

its security and collectibility. Depending on the borrower’s current 

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 according 

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 subsidiar-

ies carry out self-assessment in substantially the same manner.

(d) Prevention and Reduction of Non-Performing Loans

(b) Asset Write-Offs and Provisions

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’ 

business 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.

In cases where claims have been determined to be uncollectible, 

or deemed to be uncollectible, write-offs signify the recognition of 

losses on the account books with respect to such claims. Write-

offs can be made either in the form of loss recognition by offsetting 

uncollectible amounts against corresponding balance sheet items, 

referred to as a direct write-off, or else by recognition of a loan 

loss provision on a contra-asset account in the amount deemed 

uncollectible, referred to as an indirect write-off. Recognition of 

indirect write-offs is generally known as provision for the reserve for

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.

Discounted Cash Flow Method

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 accor-

dance with the Banking Act (in which they are referred to as “risk-

monitored loans”) and the Financial Reconstruction Act (where they 

are referred to as “problem assets”). Problem assets are classified 

based on the borrower categories assigned during self-assessment.

4. Risk Management of Marketable Credit Transactions
Financial  products,  such  as  investments  in  funds,  securitized 

products, and credit derivatives, that bear indirect risk arising from 

underlying assets such as bonds and loan obligations, are consid-

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

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 analyzing 

and assessing the characteristics of the 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 defined as the uncertainty around the ability of 

the firm to meet debt obligations without incurring unacceptably 

large losses. Examples of such risk include the possible inability to 

meet current and future cash flow/collateral needs, both expected 

and unexpected. In such cases, the firm may be required to raise 

funds at less than favorable rates or be unable to raise sufficient 

funds for settlement.

(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. 

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

SMBC periodically performs comprehensive internal audits to verify 

that the risk management framework is functioning properly.

3. Market and Liquidity Risk Management Methods

(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-

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

SMFG  employs,  as  a  method  substitute  for  the  back-testing 

method, the VaR wherein presumption for the model such as obser-

vation period changes.

d. Changes in model from previous fiscal year

The model in use remains unchanged from that employed in the 

previous fiscal year.

(c) Stress Testing

The  market  occasionally  undergoes  extreme  fluctuations  that 

exceed projections. To manage market risk, therefore, it is important 

to run simulations of unforeseen situations that may occur in finan-

cial markets (stress testing). SMBC conducts stress tests regularly, 

assuming various scenarios, and has measures in place for irregular 

events.

(d) Outlier Framework

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

20% of total capital as a result of interest rate shocks, that bank 

would fall into the category of “outlier bank,” as stipulated under the 

Pillar 2 of Basel Framework.

This ratio, known as the outlier ratio, was around 1% at SMBC 

on a consolidated basis at March 31, 2015, substantially below the 

20% criterion.

(e) Management of Stocks Held for Strategic Purposes

SMBC establishes risk allowance limits on stocks held for strategic 

purposes and monitors the observance of these limits in order to 

control stock price fluctuation risk adequately. More specifically, VaR 

(1 year holding period) computed from profit and loss simulations 

based on historical market fluctuation data and aggregated fluctua-

tion in market price from the beginning of the fiscal year are subject 

to the risk capital limit management and monitored on a daily basis.

(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 consist-

ing of “setting upper limits for funding gaps,” “maintaining highly liq-

uid supplementary funding sources,” and “establishing contingency 

plans.”

A funding gap is defined as the maturity mismatch between 

source of funds and use of funds. SMBC actively manages this 

funding gap by setting limits on the size of the gap over a given 

time horizon and limiting reliance on short-term funding. These limits 

are set in place on both a bank-wide basis and individual branch 

basis, and take into account cash management planning, systemic 

factors, and funding status, among other factors. Additionally, fund-

ing gap limits are set for individual currencies if necessary. SMBC 

actively monitors the funding gap on a daily basis.

Further, stress tests are regularly carried out by simulating the 

impact triggered, for example, by the outflow of deposits or having 

difficulties in funding from money markets, in order to thoroughly 

comprehend the amount required to fund when the liquidity risk 

is realized. Additionally, funding liquidity is maintained by holding 

assets, such as U.S. government bonds, which can be immediately 

converted to cash, or establishing borrowing facilities to be used 

as supplementary funding sources in an emergency, in order to 

smoothly raise the required fund even during market disruption.

Furthermore, contingency plans are developed to respond to 

the liquidity risk when being realized, by creating detailed action 

plans such as lowering the upper limit for the funding gap, depend-

ing on the existing situation (i.e. normal, concerned, or critical) and 

the respective circumstances.

Furthermore, SMBC has been reducing its strategic equity

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 Capital Accord—which, in addition to process-

ing risk and system 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) busi-

ness disruption and system failures, and (7) execution, delivery, and 

process management.

(2)  Fundamental Principles for Operational Risk Management 
SMFG and SMBC have set forth 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 risks 

and a system for executing contingency and business continuity 

plans. Based on the framework of Basel Capital Accord, SMFG has 

been continuously pursuing sophisticated quantification of opera-

tional risks and advanced Groupwide management.

■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’s Board 

of Directors. In addition, SMBC has established the system to com-

prehensively manage operational risks by setting up the Corporate 

Risk Management Department to oversee overall management of 

operational risks together with other departments responsible for 

processing risks and system risks.

As the brief overview, this system operates by collecting and 

analyzing internal loss data occurred at each department or branch 

as well as comprehensively specifying scenarios involving opera-

tional risks based on the operational procedures of each branch on 

regular-basis and estimating the loss amount and frequency of the 

occurrence of such losses based on each scenario. Risk severities 

are quantified for each scenario and for those scenarios having high 

severities the risk mitigation plan will be developed by the relevant 

department and the status on the progress of such risk mitiga-

tion plan will be followed up by the Corporate Risk Management 

Department. Furthermore, operational risks are quantified, and 

quantitatively managed by utilizing the collected internal loss data 

and scenarios.

(2) External Loss Data
External loss data are defined as “the information for events which 

charge of the Corporate Risk Management Department. In addition, 

other banks, etc. incur losses due to operational risks.”

there is the Operational Risk Committee, comprising all relevant 

units of the bank, where operational risk information is reported and 

risk mitigation plans are discussed. In this way, we realize a highly 

effective operational risk management framework. The operational 

risk situation is also reported to the Management Committee and 

the Board of Directors on a regular basis, for review of the basic 

policies on operational risk management. Moreover, the bank’s 

independent Internal Audit Department conducts periodic audits to 

ensure that the operational risk management system is functioning 

properly.

3. Operational Risk Management Methodology
As previously defined, operational risks cover a wide-range of 

cases, including the risks of losses due to errors in operation, 

system failures, and natural disasters. Also, operational risk events 

can occur virtually anywhere and everywhere. Thus, it is essential 

to check whether material operational risks have been overlooked, 

monitor the overall status of risks, and manage/control them. To this 

end, it is necessary to be able to quantify risks using a measure-

ment methodology that can be applied to all types of operational 

risks, and to comprehensively and comparatively capture the status 

of and changes in potential operational risks of business processes. 

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 risks.

At  the  end  of  March  2008,  SMFG  and  SMBC  adopted  the 

Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) set forth by Basel Capital 

Accord for calculation of operational risk equivalent amount. The 

approach has been utilized for the management of operational risks 

since then.

The basic framework for quantifying operational risks consists 

of internal loss data, external loss data, Business Environment and 

Internal Control Factors (BEICFs) and scenario analysis. Out of the 

above-mentioned four factors, internal loss data and the results 

of scenario analysis (hereinafter, the “assumption data”) are input 

into the internal measurement system (hereinafter, the “quantifica-

tion model”) developed by SMBC; and operational risk equivalent 

amount and risk asset (operational risk equivalent amount is divided 

by 8%) is calculated. In addition, external loss data and BEICFs 

along with internal loss data are used for verifying the assessment 

of scenarios to increase objectivity, accuracy and completeness. 

SMFG,  including  the  Group  companies  to  which  the  AMA  is 

applied, collect the four elements.

This is outlined as follows.

(3)  Business Environment and Internal Control Factors 

(BEICFs)

BEICFs are defined as “factors affecting operational risks which are 

associated with conditions of business environment and internal 

control of SMFG.”

(4) Scenario Analysis
Scenario  analysis  is  defined  as  a  “methodology  which  identi-

fies assumed cases involving any material operational risks and 

describe them in terms of risk scenario, and estimate the frequency 

and severity of risk scenarios.” SMFG’s principal business opera-

tions are applicable for this methodology.

The purposes of scenario analysis are to identify any potential 

risks underlying in our business operations; to measure risks based 

on the possibility of occurrence of the said potential risks; and to 

review and execute any required measures. Furthermore, another 

purpose of the scenario analysis is 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).

(5) Measurement Using the Quantification Model
The quantification model produces the distribution of loss frequency 

and loss severity based on the internal loss data and scenario 

data; and it also produces the loss distribution based on the said 

distribution of loss frequency (distribution of losses in a year) and 

the distribution of loss severity (distribution of loss amount per case) 

by making scenarios of the various combination of frequencies 

and amount of losses according to the Monte Carlo simulations; 

and it calculates the maximum amount of loss expected, due to 

operational risks, based on the assumption of one-sided confidence 

interval of 99.9% and the holding period of one year. Regarding 

the Consumer finance of a certain subsidiary, expected losses are 

excluded in calculating the operational risk equivalent amount of the 

repayment of excess interest.

The measurement units are SMFG consolidated basis, SMBC 

consolidated basis and SMBC nonconsolidated basis; and it is

Settlement Risk

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

that cannot be settled as planned. As this risk crosses over numer-

ous risks, including credit, liquidity, processing and system risks, it 

is required to appropriately manage according to characteristics of 

such risks.

At SMBC, the Corporate Risk Management Department is in 

overall charge of settlement risk, while settlement risk included 

within the various other risk categories is managed by the respec-

tive  department  in  charge:  the  Credit  &  Investment  Planning 

Department  for  credit  risk,  the  Corporate  Risk  Management 

Department for liquidity risk, the Operations Planning Department 

for processing risk, and the IT Planning Department for system risk.

5. System Risk Management
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 regu-

lations 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). 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 sys-

tem consisting of computer centers in eastern and western Japan.

And to maintain the confidentiality of customer information and pre-

vent information leaks, sensitive information is encrypted, unauthor-

ized external access is blocked, and all known countermeasures to 

secure data are implemented. There are also contingency 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 patterns emerge.

Abbreviation for Asset Liability Management 
Method for comprehensive management of assets and liabilities, with 
appropriate controls on market risk (interest rates, exchange rates, etc.).

Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA)
Based on the operational risk measurement methods used in the inter-
nal management of financial institutions, this is a method for obtaining 
the operational risk equivalent amount by calculating the maximum 
amount of operational risk loss expected over a period of one year, with 
a one-sided confidence interval of 99.9%.

minimum regulatory capital requirements, and it is being used in the risk 
management framework voluntarily developed by financial institutions for 
the purpose of internal management.

Risk factor
Anything which may become a factor for risk. In the case of market risk, 
it would be the share price or interest rate; in the case of credit risk, it 
would be the default rate or economic environment.

Contributing to  
the Sustainable Development of Society
Today, modern society is faced with diverse issues such as global 
warming, rapid population growth, and a declining birthrate and 
aging of the population in advanced countries. The SMFG Group 
believes that it is our Group’s social responsibilities, our CSR, to 
remind us of and practice the roles as the global financial group for 
resolving issues for the sustainable development of the society. 

Basic CSR Policies
SMFG has set forth the definition and common principles for “busi-
ness ethics” for CSR in order to clearly describe and effectively 
promote CSR activities in 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.

SMFG’s Group-Wide 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 

respond promptly to directives from auditors and inspectors. Through 

these actions, we observe all laws and regulations, and uphold moral 

standards in our business practices.

Integral Development of CSR and  
Business Strategies
The SMFG Group believes that CSR is the foundation for SMFG 
Group’s business strategies which should be integrally incorporated 
with business strategies for achieving the management policies and 
goals. In another words, it is the concept that we consistently verify 
and confirm according to the basic policy of CSR whether the direction 
of our business strategies promoted by our Group corresponds with 
our vision in 10 years of “becoming the highly trusted global financial 
group which leads Japan and Asia, and grow along with clients”; and 
then, we reflect the needs of clients and society in our CSR activities.
  We believe that fulfilling CSR is truly “management itself,” and seri-
ously committing to the implementation of CSR would be the shortest 
and quickest way to achieve our management policies and goals. 

Support for Initiatives in Japan and Overseas
As a corporate citizen of the global society, SMFG is fully aware of 
the social impact of the financial institution, and it shall support the 
following initiatives in Japan and overseas (the action guidelines for

Guidelines Used for Reference
The Group refers to the following guidelines in its promotion devel-
opment, and information disclosure for CSR.

• ISO26000

   This is the “guidance document” with respect to social responsibilities, 

consisting of basic principles and seven core subjects (governance, human 

rights, labor practices, the environment, fair operating practices, consumer 

issues, and community involvement and development).

• GRI Guidelines

   “Sustainability Reporting Guidelines (G3.1 and G4.0)” of GRI (Global 

Reporting Initiative) is referred to for editing of CSR website and preparation 

of CSR.

  * GRI (Global Reporting Initiative): International organization established in 1997 

for the purpose of creating and promoting global guidelines for the “Sustainability 
Report.”

•  United Nations Global Compact, COP (Communication on Progress), 

Advanced Level Criteria

   21 evaluation criteria provided for reporting performance status of 10 

principles of the signed United Nations Global Compact.

SRI Indices
The Group’s CSR activities have been highly evaluated by the 
market and included in internationally-known, major SRI (“Socially 
Responsible Investment”) Indices. The SRI Index is a standard 
for  investment  decisions  that  are  based  not  only  on  financial 
perspectives, but also on important views including environmental 
considerations and social contributions. We believe that this is an 
endorsement by the market of the Group’s future corporate social 
responsibility activities.

Review of Priority Issues (Materiality) which 
SMFG Should Address
In fiscal 2013, the Group has reviewed the previously-raised priority 
issues according to changes in social trends, and newly identi-
fied three subject matters of “Environment,” “Next Generations” 
and  “Community”  as  the  medium-  to  long-term  priority  issues 
(Materiality).

Key Issues to be Addressed on a Solid Management Base

Interaction with 
stakeholders

Customer satisfaction

Pleasant workplace and 
work environment

Corporate governance

Risk management

Rigorous information management

Fair business practices and competition

Countermeasures for anti-social forces

As for identifying these priority issues, we broadly selected 
issues according to the above-mentioned guidelines and prioritized 
them based on the degree of importance from perspectives of each 
SMFG Group company and stakeholders. Concurrently, the final 
priority issues were determined taking into account the opinions of 
experts through discussions. In fiscal 2014, we promoted measures 
for resolving priority issues by reviewing through discussions with 
internal and external stakeholders and respective Group companies.
  We will continue to engage in specific activities for Group com-
panies upon further identifying the items which should be worked 
on according to priority issues.

SMFG 2015 
Initiatives for Enhancing Customer Satisfaction (CS) and Quality

The bank has set up the Quality Management Department 
which is responsible for developing plans and preparing systems 
for improvement of CS and Quality. Additionally, this department 
holds meetings for the “CS and Quality Improvement Committee,” 
which is chaired by the President, to discuss appropriate cross- 
departmental measures for the entire bank in order to achieve 
greater satisfaction by customers.

Clients always come first
SMBC sets forth detailed action principles under the “Clients 
always come first” of the “Compliance Manual,” along with the 
above-mentioned “Management Principles,” in order to enforce 
the attitude of “Clients always come first.” Furthermore, the 
bank raises awareness for the attitude of “Clients always come 
first” for all employees through group training seminars and 
study sessions conducted at branches. During such training 
seminars and study sessions, the bank specifically incorporates 
clients’ opinions and requests for the implementation of “Clients 
always come first” attitude into daily business activities.

SMFG strives to improve CS and Quality of the entire Group 
and to become the “highly-trusted” financial services group, through 
implementation of such measures.

SMFG’s Initiatives
SMFG shall implement measures to improve CS and Quality while 
cooperating among group companies by setting forth as one of 
our management principles: “To found our own prosperity on pro-
viding valuable services which help our customers to build their 
prosperity.”

SMFG regularly holds meetings for the “Group CS Committee” 
which is chaired by the senior management executive of the general 
affairs section of the Group for promoting cooperation among group 
companies. The committee discusses and exchanges opinions and 
ideas regarding opinions and suggestions received from our clients 
or CS promotion policies, and it strives to further improve CS and 
Quality of the entire Group.

Measures Taken by SMBC
The  head  office  of  SMBC  analyzes  opinions  and  suggestions 
received from our clients and incorporates such opinions and sug-
gestions received from our clients into our management and training 
seminars for employees for improvement of products and services 
based on such analysis.

Responding to customers’ opinions and requests
The  customers’  opinions  and  requests,  which  are  received  at 
branches or made through our toll-free telephone service, are 
collected  and  registered  into  the  database  for  “Voice  of  the 
Customers” (VOC), along with data received from CS surveys and 
questionnaires conducted by our bank. The registered data are 
widely shared among all departments of the Bank.

Based on such registered data for VOC, there may be cases 
in which the head office departments may advise branches, review 
individual products and services, or consider measures to be taken 
for the entire bank.

Corporate Governance

Our Position on Corporate Governance
SMFG and its Group companies follow the SMFG management 
philosophy set forth as the universal guide for the Group man-
agement and consider this philosophy as the foundation for any 
corporate activities. We are working to improve the effectiveness of 
corporate governance as we consider strengthening and enhance-
ment of corporate governance as one of the top prioritized issues 
in order to achieve the management philosophy. Further, SMFG 
establishes its “SMFG Corporate Governance Guideline” as its 
principles and guidelines to be referred to for corporate gover-
nance, in order to improve sustainable growth and medium- and 
long-term corporate values by preventing the occurrence of mis-
conduct and unsound corporate situations and through achieving 
effective corporate governance with these measures.

The SMFG Corporate Governance System 
As  a  company  with  a  board  of  corporate  auditors,  SMFG 
implements the system which enhances appropriateness and 
efficiency of audit for the board of directors to appropriately 
exercise its oversight function, and for corporate auditors to 
independently exercise the auditing function, and the board 
of corporate auditors to establish auditing policies by resolu-
tion. In terms of incorporating external views and opinions into 
management, on June 26, 2015, we have increased the number 
of outside directors and outside corporate auditors in total from 
six to eight; and five out of thirteen directors and three out of six 
corporate auditors are outside directors and corporate auditors.

As for corporate auditors, they attend important SMFG 
meetings including the Board of Directors meetings, in accor-
dance with the audit policy and allocation of audit procedures 
as set forth by the Board of Corporate Auditors, and receive 
reports from directors and others on the execution status of 
duties; and they audit such execution status of SMFG directors 
through reviewing material approval documents, communicating 
with internal audit department and subsidiaries, and hearing 
reports made by accounting auditors.

As for the Board, the chairman of SMFG serves as the 
chairman  of  the  Board  of  Directors  for  SMFG.  The  role  of 
the chairman is clearly separated from responsibilities of the 
president  who  oversees  the  overall  business  operations. 
Furthermore, the establishment of internal governance com-
mittees under the Board and appointment of outside directors 
enhance the effectiveness of the Board.

The  Board  set  up  four  internal  committees:  the  Auditing 
Committee, the Risk Management Committee, the Compensation 
Committee, and the Nominating Committee. All three outside 
directors have been appointed for these committees in order to 
objectively oversee corporate governance. As the objectivity is 
explicitly required for both Auditing Committee and Compensation 
Committee, the outside directors are appointed as the chairmen 
for these committees to further enhance such required objectivity.

The Group Management Committee is set up under the 
Board to serve as the top decision-making body. The Group 
Management Committee is chaired by the president of SMFG 
and the directors are appointed by the president. The commit-
tee 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 Group Strategy Committee is set up for matters related 
to business plans of each Group company and to exchange 
opinions, discuss and report on the management of SMFG and 
each of the Group companies.

Furthermore, seven directors out of thirteen directors (out of 
which five directors are outside directors) of SMFG also serve 
as the directors for SMBC to oversee its business execution. As 
for three companies of Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing 
Company, Limited, SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd., and 
The  Japan  Research  Institute,  Limited  of  SMFG’s  directly-
owned subsidiaries, the SMFG directors also serve as the direc-
tors for each of these subsidiaries to oversee their business.

Furthermore,  in  order  to  maintain  sound  management, 
SMFG sets forth a system which firmly maintains the appropri-
ateness of SMFG’s business operations, as the internal control 
regulations for SMFG and its Group companies pursuant to the 
Japanese Company Law. SMFG considers that the develop-
ment of a solid management system is an important manage-
ment issue by further improving the internal control system.

The SMBC Corporate Governance System
SMBC implements the corporate auditor system by appointing 
six corporate auditors, out of which three corporate auditors are 
outside auditors. SMBC implements the executive officer system 
by dividing functions of “business execution” and “overseeing 
function” in order to increase the transparency and soundness 
of management. The executive officers execute business opera-
tions and the Board serves mainly as the overseeing function.

The chairman of the bank also serves as the chairman of the 
Board; segregates his functions and duties from the president of 
the bank who controls the overall business operations; does not 
concurrently hold the position of executive officer; and mainly over-
sees the business execution. Furthermore, SMBC further strength-
ens the overseeing function by appointing three outside directors 
out of seventeen directors for the bank. The executive officers, who 
manage business operations, are appointed by the Board.

There are a total of eighty-one executive officers, including 
the president, as of June 30, 2015 (out of eighty-one executive 
officers, eleven executive officers concurrently serve as directors).
The Management Committee is set up under the Board 
to serve as the highest decision-making body for the bank. 
The Management Committee is chaired by the president of the 
bank, and the executive officers are appointed by the president. 
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.

Furthermore, pursuant to the decisions made by the Board, 
the president designates certain members of the Management 
Committee to be Authorized Management Committee members in 
charge of particular Head Office departments 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, the 
Internal Auditing Committee is set up as part of the Management 
Committee,  taking  into  consideration  its  critical  role  and 
responsibility for the internal audit for the management, in order 
to effectively facilitate the internal audits. The Internal Auditing 
Committee  meets  every  quarter,  and  its  members  discuss 
important internal auditing matters based on reports prepared 
by the departments responsible for conducting internal audits. 
Under such structure, the Audit Department is set up as the 
independently operated internal auditing unit of the Group.

The Audit Department conducts internal audits on the oper-
ations of all of the Group’s units and departments for proper 
operations of the Group and the soundness of their assets. 
These audits also have the functions of verifying whether the 
Group’s internal control systems, including compliance and 
risk management, are appropriately and effectively operated. 
Additionally the Audit Department is responsible for the overall 
supervision of the internal audit functions of the Group compa-
nies, for appropriateness and effectiveness by monitoring the 
progress and performance of each company’s internal auditing 
activities and conducting audits on the common subject among 
groups as deemed necessary. Based on these activities, the 
Audit Department provides recommendations and guidance 
to the business units and departments as well as to the Group 
companies.

At SMBC, we have established the Internal Audit Unit which 
is independently operated from other business activities. Under 
the Internal Audit Unit, the Internal Audit Department and the 
Credit  Review  Department  are  set  up.  Similarly  for  SMFG, 
SMBC also sets up an Internal Auditing Committee, which is 
responsible for discussing and reporting important matters 
proposed by the Internal Audit Unit, as the committee partially 
constituting its Management Committee.

The Internal Audit Unit is responsible for auditing compli-
ance and risk management at SMBC (head office departments, 
domestic and overseas branches) and SMBC Group compa-
nies. The audit of operations of the head office departments is 
conducted by assessing for appropriateness of overall internal 
control systems of each department, including the functional 

status  of  procedures  for  the  “Plan,  Do,  Check  and  Act” 
(PDCA) method. In addition to these individual audits for each 
department, we also focus on specific businesses or specified 
critical issues associated with risk management to conduct 
the “Theme audit” for verifying the bank’s overall or cross- 
departmental  conditions  of  the  internal  control  systems. 
Moreover, audits of branches and offices are not limited to 
simply inspecting for any inadequacies but also specifying and 
pointing out issues for the overall internal control systems, 
including any problem items associated with compliance and 
risk management; and making proposals for improvement mea-
sures or corrective actions.

For other Group companies, internal audit departments 
have been set up according to the respective business charac-
teristics of such Group companies.

Initiatives to Enhance the Sophistication and 
Efficiency of Internal Audit
The Audit Department has adopted methods in accordance 
with the standards of the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA)*, an 
international organization. The Audit Department conducts risk 
based audits and the Group companies also conduct the same.

The Audit Department, as the controlling department for 
the Group’s overall internal audit systems, strives to enhance 
the expertise of internal auditors such as collection of internal 
and external up-to-date information related to internal audit and 
forwarding such information to the Group companies; imple-
mentation of seminars conducted by outside professionals for 
the Group companies; and promoting the acquisition of interna-
tional qualification for internal audit. Also, the Audit Department 
organizes training programs taught by outside experts for the 
staff of the Group companies, encouraging them to learn inter-
national standards to enhance their professional knowledge and 
skills for internal audit.

To further improve the effectiveness of audit, we also proactively 
take measures on a group-wide basis to assess the quality of our 
internal audit while taking into account the IIA standards.

*  The Institute of Internal Auditors, Inc. (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 to 
be able to fulfill its public mission and corporate social responsi-
bilities as a financial services group offering diversified products 
and services for becoming 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 management.

Group Management in Compliance Perspective
As a financial holding company, SMFG strives to maintain a 
compliance  system  which  provides  the  appropriate  direc-
tions, guidance and monitoring for 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 meet-
ings with individual companies.

Reporting System for Inappropriate Accounting 
and Auditing Activities
SMFG  has  established  the  “SMFG  Group  Alarm  Line,”  the 
whistle-blowing system which can be used by all employees, 
including employees of group companies, for a self-control 
effect by promptly detecting and rectifying any actions which 
may violate laws and regulations.

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 
activities. This hotline quickly identifies and takes appropriate 
actions against any purported fraudulent activities or any mis-
conduct associated with accounting and auditing at SMFG and 
its consolidated subsidiaries.

SMFG Accounting and Auditing Hotline: Reports may be submitted by 
regular mail or e-mail to the following addresses.

Compliance Systems at SMBC

Strengthening the Compliance System
It is generally required for all corporations to be in compliance 
with laws, regulations and other social standards. It is essential 
for banks to be fully in compliance to fulfill their public missions 
and corporate social responsibilities as financial institutions. 

In  accordance  with  the  basic  policies  of  SMFG,  SMBC 
requires its management and staff to give utmost consideration to 
people’s trust in the Bank, abide by laws and regulations, main-
tain high ethical standards, and act fairly and sincerely. Therefore, 
SMBC considers that being fully compliant with laws and regula-
tions is one of the most critical issues for management to deal 
with such as issues related to the Banking Law, the Financial 
Instruments  and  Exchange  Act,  compliance  with  any  other 
related ordinances, and elimination of anti-social organizations.

Compliance System and its Management
The basic structure of SMBC’s compliance system is a dual 
structure whereby firstly, each department and office will be 
individually  responsible  for  making  preliminary  decisions 
to ensure that its conducts are in compliance with laws and 
regulations, and secondly, an independent Internal Audit Unit 
will conduct impartial audits of observance of the compliance 
system by individual departments and offices.

In order for the basic dual structure to be maintained and 
to effectively function, the Compliance Unit, consisting of the 
General Affairs Department and the Legal Department will, at 
the direction of management, plan and promote systems to 
ensure observance of the compliance system. The Compliance 
Unit will issue instructions to and monitor the conduct of each 
department and office in SMBC, and assist such department 
and offices to make appropriate judgments regarding their 
observance of the compliance system.

SMBC commits to the following operations for the said 

compliance structure to work effectively.

Preparation of a Compliance Manual
SMBC  has  prepared  its  Compliance  Manual  by  stating  its 
objectives, guiding rules and 60 rules of action in order to assist 
the management and staff in selecting optimal actions. This 
manual has been approved by the Board of Directors.

Development of Compliance Program
The  Board  of  Directors  develops  the  detailed  annual  plan 
for compliance-related activities for each fiscal year, including 
amendments to the rules and regulations, training, etc. for the 
effective operation of the compliance system for SMBC and its 
consolidated subsidiaries. Especially during fiscal 2015, SMBC 
is currently in the process of enhancing its overseas compliance 
system; strengthening its management system for anti-money 
laundering and combatting the financing of terrorism (“AML/
CFT”); improving its Group compliance system; and enhancing 
its compliance system for financial products.

54

Appointment of Compliance Officers
In addition to appointing compliance officers to each branch 
and department of the bank, the “Area Compliance Officers,” 
operating independently from areas of business promotion, are 
appointed for the Wholesale Banking Unit and Retail Banking 
Unit of branches and offices to directly supervise and manage 
compliance activities.

Set up of the Compliance Committee
The Compliance Committee, which consists of cross-departmental 
compliance members, chaired by the director in charge of com-
pliance, has been created in order to comprehensively 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 received 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 and the specified 
non-profit organization of “Financial Instruments Mediation 
Assistance Center,” one of “Designated Dispute Resolution 
Agencies” under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.

Environmental Preservation Initiatives

Basic Views for Environmental Preservation

The Group recognizes environmental preservation as one of its most important management issues. Based on our Group Environmental 
Policy, we are implementing initiatives to harmonize environmental preservation and corporate activities.

The Group Environmental Policy
Basic concepts
Recognizing the importance of realizing a sustainable society, SMFG is continuously making efforts to harmonize environmental pres-
ervation and pollution control with 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 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: 1) “Reduction of impacts on environment,” 2) “Management of environmental 
risks,” and 3) “Promotion of environmental businesses.” We have set environmental objectives for each environmental activity and follow 
the procedures of Plan, Do, Check, and Act (PDCA) for such environmental activities. 

Environmental Management System (EMS) Based on ISO14001 Certification
The environmental management certification of ISO14001 has been obtained by SMFG and its major companies (SMBC, Sumitomo 
Mitsui Finance and Leasing (“SMFL,”) SMBC Nikko Securities, SMBC Friend Securities, Sumitomo Mitsui Card and JRI). In 1998, SMBC 
was the first bank in Japan to obtain this certification. The Group has developed the structure to promote EMS which is organized and 
managed mainly by the Corporate Planning Department and senior environmental officers.

Signing of the “Principles for Financial Actions 
(the principles for financial actions for the 21st 
Century) for Achieving the Sustainable Society”
“Principles for Financial Action towards a Sustainable Society,” 
which were adopted in October 2011, are signed by SMBC, 
SMBC Nikko Securities, SMBC Friend Securities, Minato Bank, 
Kansai Urban Banking Corporation (“KUBC”) and Japan Net 
Bank.

The principles have been set forth for the purposes of mak-
ing the environmental financing widely-known and improving the 
quality of environmental financing. SMBC has participated since 
2012 as a steering member for the Steering Committee which is 
made up of 193 financial institutions (as of March 31, 2015).

Based on these principles, the Group continues to expand 

its environmental financing activities in Japan.

Reducing Environmental Impact
•  Initiatives for Energy Consumption of Facilities

SMFG sets environmental objectives for reducing energy con-
sumption such as electricity for each fiscal year, and it assert-
ively strives to implement energy-saving measures to reach the 
targeted goal.
·  SMBC, SMBC Nikko Securities, SMBC Friend Securities, and 
SMBC Consumer Finance shall install energy-saving equip-
ment such as LED lighting for the relocation or renovation of a 
branch, taking into consideration the environment awareness.

·  For  the  SMBC  East  Tower 
which  will  be  completed  in 
the  summer  of  2015,  we 
have taken into consideration 
the  environmental  aware-
ness on the following issues:  
1) utilization and preservation 
of nature; 2) implementation 
of  highly  efficient  systems;  
3)  re d u c t i o n   o f   a d v e r s e 
environmental  effects;  and  
4)  creation  of  a  sustainable 
building. We are expected to 
incorporate  diverse  energy-
saving technologies to reduce approximately 35% of CO2 
emission*. (*Compared to average office buildings). 

SMBC East Tower in Tokyo

·  As the Osaka Head Office building was built over 80 years 
ago, the two-year renovation of the building was completed 
in  May  2015.  For  the  renovation,  we  have  installed  high- 
performing  exterior  wall  frames,  LED  lightings  and  solar 
panels while retaining the original charm of the facilities, by 
s u b s t a n t i a l l y 
improving  the 
environmental 
p e r f o r m a n c e 
in  addition  to 
appropriately 
a d a p t i n g  
t o 
modern  work 
styles. 

Osaka Head Office

In July 2012, SMBC and JRI, as part of their own energy-
saving  initiatives,  implemented  the  solar  power  generation 
equipment in the SMFG’s main computer center for providing 
energy during peak business hours.

56

Managing Environmental Risks
•  Environmental and social risks in loan (credit) activities

SMBC believes it is important to take into account the envi-
ronmental risks for conducting credit assessment. Factoring 
environmental risks in the credit assessment (environmental 
credit risks) is stipulated in SMBC’s Credit Policy, which sets 
forth the universal and basic philosophies, guidelines and rules 
for credit operations taking into consideration the management 
principle and the rules of conduct. For example, to deal with the 
risks of soil and asbestos contamination in real estate pledged 
as collateral, SMBC requires contamination risk assessment 
for such real estate collateral meeting certain criteria. If con-
tamination risks are found to be high, the assessed value of the 
potential risks will be deducted from its value. Furthermore, our 
Credit Policy clearly stipulates that credit which is used for the 
production of cluster bombs and mass-destructive weapons is 
prohibited.

•  Managing environmental and social risks in large-scale 

development projects

Large-scale development projects may have significant impacts 
on society and the environment; therefore, the international civil 
society requires financial institutions to fully consider social and 
environmental impacts of the projects when providing financial 
support. 

SMBC  has  adopted  the 
Equator  Principles,  a  set  of 
for  determining, 
principles 
assessing and managing envi-
ronmental and social risks in 
project financing and has established the Environment Analysis 
Department (EAD) to assess the environmental and social risks 
of large-scale development projects in accordance with the 
principles. In June 2013, for the Equator Principles, the scope 
was expanded and the assessment criteria were strengthened. 
SMBC  also  revised  its  internal  procedures  in  accordance 
with the revised Equator Principles to improve its system for 
assessing environmental and social risks. Furthermore, SMBC 
continues to improve its environmental and social risk assess-
ment systems which received a third-party guarantee made by 
Ernst & Young Sustainability Co., Ltd. in 2014 with respect to 
application status of the Equator Principles. 

•  Lawful disposal of properties at the expiration of leases

Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing is completely in compli-
ance with environment-related laws and regulations to prevent 
contamination of the environment due to illegal disposals of 
industrial waste materials triggered by the expiration of leases. 
In addition, multi-phased assessment mainly in terms of compli-
ance, local research and interviews are conducted annually in 
order to prudently select the most appropriate company that 
handles transportation and disposing of waste materials at the 
time of the expiration of a lease.

SMFG 2015 
 
Environmental Businesses
•  Environmental contributions through core businesses

The Group considers environmental businesses as a means 
to preserve and improve the global environment through its 
core business operations. As an example: SMBC Environmental 
Assessment Loan/Private Placement Bond is provided for cli-
ents for promoting their environmental management. Further, 
the Growth Industry Cluster Department work is not limited to 
the maintenance or improvement of the global environment 
but also includes the economic development of each coun-
try through providing support for environment infrastructure 
improvement projects in emerging countries mainly in Asia and 
renewable energy projects.

In addition, the Kansai Urban Banking Corporation jointly 
participated with an affiliated organization of Osaka Prefecture in 
the exhibit for “Biwako Kankyo (Environmental) Business Messe 
2014,” focusing on environmental issues to introduce technolo-
gies and services owned by companies in Osaka Prefecture to 
companies in Shiga Prefecture.

Description

Started in 1996, this magazine contains interviews with top management of environmentally advanced companies, analyses of business and 
regulatory trends, and other beneficial information for corporate environmental activities. Presently, more than 100 issues of the magazine have 
been published. It can be viewed online at SMFG’s website (in Japanese).
SMFG organized a three-day event at Eco-Products, one of Japan’s largest environmental exhibitions. More than 15 of our clients’ companies 
set up booths with “Environment,” “Water, Resources, New Energies” as themes, and each client presented or demonstrated respective 
environmental initiatives.
Terms and conditions for these loans and bonds are set forth according to the assessment conducted on the company’s environmental mea-
sures, pursuant to the environmental assessment standards originally created by SMBC and JRI, and SMBC determines terms and conditions 
for loans or private placement bonds according to the results of such assessment.
SMBC revised and improved evaluation methods for existing “SMBC Environment Friendliness Assessment Loans and Private Placement 
Bonds” especially made for medium-sized and small-to-medium-sized companies which have more assessment needs for the degree of 
environment friendliness. As for the fund raising, SMBC conducts quantitative assessment according to the assessment criteria created by 
SMBC and follows with the qualitative assessment based on interviews conducted by environment friendliness assessment agency, and the 
final and comprehensive assessment results will be provided to clients in the form of “Environmental Management Analysis Report.”
Terms and conditions for those loans and bonds are set forth according to the assessment conducted on the buildings owned or to be con-
structed by companies, pursuant to the assessment criteria created by SMBC and Woonerf Inc. (formerly known as CSR Design & Landscape 
Co., Ltd.), for environment friendliness for “energy” and “water,” etc., seismic adequacy required to maintain the sustainability, measures taken 
for “risk management” such as BCP; and “business manager’s policies and practices” promoting such assessment criteria.
Terms and conditions for those loans and bonds are set forth by SMBC, according to the assessment conducted on the measures taken by 
clients for the Environment, Society and Governance (“ESG”) and appropriateness of information disclosure, pursuant to the assessment criteria 
created by SMBC and JRI.
Terms and conditions for those loans are set forth according to the assessment conducted on the environmental measures taken by companies 
in Malaysia and Thailand utilizing the plan as set forth in the “SMBC Environmental Assessment Loans/Private Placement Bonds” since 2008. 
The assessment report is also provided to further enhance the company’s eco-management related activities.
This loan product offers reductions of interest rates up to 0.25% for SMEs certified with environmental management systems by more than 20 
organizations, including NPOs and local governments.
Under this program, companies may conditionally receive loans from financial institutions, with interest subsidized by the government, to 
finance capital investment which reduces CO2 emissions. SMBC supports companies taking environmental initiatives as one of the financial 
institutions authorized to provide loans under this program.
In the field of energy conservation, in which Japanese corporations especially excel, SMBC provides support and financial advisory services 
for “Joint Crediting Mechanism,” for the purpose of contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gasses due to technology exportation to 
underdeveloped countries. In Brazil, SMBC provides advisory services for a newly established environmentally innovative fund which was set up 
principally by the Brazilian Development Bank.
In March 2012, SMBC executed a Memorandum of Understanding with Development Bank of Mongolia for financial cooperation for environ-
ment and infrastructure projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. SMBC continues to develop a solid global network by MOUs similarly 
executed with local major corporations and financial institutions in Mexico and other countries for promoting financing for renewable energy 
projects and carbon credits trading businesses.
We have contributed to global environmental protection by: (1) trading the amount equivalent to 100kg of carbon credits; or (2) forestation in 
the area equivalent to 1m2 per each individual who purchased JGBs.
This fund invests mainly in shares of companies around the world with growth potential that conduct businesses associated with three most 
discussed issues of (1) local infrastructure; (2) food; and (3) clean energy, in order to accommodate the fluctuating and/or increasing global 
demand.
SMBC offers preferential interest rates to borrowers either for the purchase or construction of a residence entirely powered by electricity or 
ecologically-friendly residence.

SMBC and SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. offer the Nikko World Bank Bond Fund which is the first fund in the world to invest in green bonds* 
issued by the World Bank (data provided by Nikko Asset Management Co., Ltd.).
A portion of earnings from the fund is donated to the Japan Committee for UNICEF and the Japanese Red Cross Society to be used to resolve 
any social conflicts around the world. 
* This fund invests in green bond which is one of the bonds issued by the World Bank. The funds procured by the issue of these bonds will be utilized solely for loans 
provided for global warming prevention projects in emerging countries. 
It strengthens its advisory services by appropriately accommodating the Amended Energy Saving Act for proposing comprehensive energy-

Human Resources

SMFG and its Group companies strive to create the kind of 
work environment in which every employee feels proud and is

following pages, we describe some of the activities initiated by 
SMBC and other Group companies, including Sumitomo Mitsui 
Finance and Leasing (“SMFL”), SMBC Nikko Securities, SMBC 
Friend  Securities,  Sumitomo  Mitsui  Card,  Cedyna,  SMBC 
Consumer Finance, the Japan Research Institute (“JRI”), The 
Minato Bank, and Kansai Urban Banking Corporation.

Five Goals of SMBC’s Human Resources

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.

values of forward-looking, creative attitudes and mutual 

cooperation.

and cultivate the kind of corporate culture which contributes 

to the sound development of society.

Training Employees with Specialized 
Professional Skills
• Education and Training System

SMBC considers a month-long training seminar for newly-hired 
employees and any other human resources development as 
essential. The education programs for younger staff proceed to 
improve the educational system to be more practical by putting 
emphasis on the integration of OJT and group training seminars, 
educating basics of deposit and exchange operations on the 
job, and developing the system to support such training semi-
nars and the instructor system.

SMFL  strives  to  develop  professional  human  resources 
which can provide sophisticated services. In addition to its 
training programs for younger employees, SMFL improves its 
training programs according to the level of positions ranging 
from general manager to upcoming leader of next generations; 
and it supports the career advancement of women by conduct-
ing training seminars for the development of women leaders so 
as to proactively promote women. SMBC Nikko Securities, as a 
comprehensive securities and investment banking firm, is further 
strengthening its educational programs to develop employees 
with expert knowledge and to improve their professional 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.” SMBC Friend 
Securities is proactively working on the development of highly-
specialized  younger  employees  through  internally  certified 
corporate skill courses, training seminars and OJT at work as 

well as improving coaching and human resources develop-
ment capabilities and management capabilities of managers 
and supervisors in order to become the kind of securities firm 
which would be most appreciated by clients. For development 
of human resources with integrity, sophisticated knowledge and 
expertise, Sumitomo Mitsui Card proactively supports training 
seminars according to the level of positions, career develop-
ment training seminars and for becoming licensed Chiefs of 
Money Lending Operations. It is also enhancing its develop-
ment of professional human resources for credit card business 
by conducting workshops for improving card business and 
products knowledge. Cedyna strives to “take the initiative to 
develop the highly motivated professional human resources who 
produce results accordingly”; to strengthen business execution 
capabilities and provide the type of education by level, depart-
ment and subject for increasing earnings; and to work on the 
organizational human resources development (development of 
OJD system). SMBC Consumer Finance is implementing the 
competency-development training programs based on its per-
sonnel system for training human resources to have high market 
values and responsibilities. Furthermore, we assist employees in 
growing and advancing by promoting education which teaches 
those subject matters required to be in full compliance with 
the Money Lending Business Act and other legislation. SMBC 
Consumer Finance has been supporting the development of 
employees. JRI recognizes that the source for the added values 
of its solutions and proposals is human resources; therefore, it 
works on the well-planned development of human resources by 
establishing the Human Resources Development Department 
and Human Resources Planning Department under the Systems 
Development Unit and Research and Consulting Unit, respec-
tively. The Minato Bank develops the kind of training system 
which can increase the value of every employee of all levels 
ranging from the first year of employment to the management 
level. It improves the training seminars especially designed for

its management policy of “development of energetic group of 
employees.” As part of initiatives for striving to become the 
“bank which places importance on, co-exists and co-prospers 
with local areas,” it promotes certification tests on information 
related to respective local areas. We are further improving the 
training system in the respective Group companies.

•SMFG Joint Training Program

As Team SMFG, eight major group companies (SMBC, SMFL, 
SMBC Nikko Securities, SMBC Friend Securities, Sumitomo 
Mitsui Card, Cedyna, SMBC Consumer Finance, and JRI) jointly 
conducted  training  seminars  and  sports  events  for  newly-
hired employees of those group companies to enable them to 
understand the SMFG’s vision and management policy and to 
increase the sense of identity as “Team SMFG.”

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

The Group is committed to providing a workplace with diversity in 
gender, nationality, and other areas. SMBC in April 2008, SMBC 
Nikko Securities in July 2013, and The Minato Bank in October 
2013,  respectively  established  the  “Diversity  and  Inclusion 
Department” within the Human Resources Department in order 
to develop corporate culture having strength in diversity including 
the promotion of manifold roles and responsibilities for women.

SMBC  has  established  the  “Diversity  and  Inclusion 
Committee” headed by the bank President in order to enhance 
initiatives for the entire bank. It is currently reviewing the initiatives 
enabling women to actively participate in the workplace and their 
work-style by inviting outside expert professionals to participate in 
the committee. SMBC hopes 20% of its managerial positions to 
be held by women by the end of fiscal 2020.

•Personnel System

In order to motivate employees to take more challenges in per-
forming difficult tasks for promotion, SMBC has introduced a new 
workplace hierarchy system in which job rankings are more finely 
subdivided. This system will enable 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’ performances are evaluated not 
simply in terms of one fiscal year’s achievements but also on their 
overall contributions to the company.

•Developing Employees for Global Operations

SMBC  has  newly  estab-
lished the “Global Human 
Resources  Department” 
in  the  Human  Resources 
Department  and  “Global 
Diversity Training Group” 
at  the  Training  Institute, 

64

“SMBC’s Global Bankers Program”

respectively, for improving the human resources management 
framework from the bank’s overall perspective and for secur-
ing and developing excellent human resources in Japan and 
overseas. In order to enhance development of global human 
resources, SMFL and SMBC Nikko Securities improved the 
overseas trainee system mainly for younger employees, in addi-
tion to sending employees to attend language schools.

•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 
began  the  operations  of  its  Kobe  Branch,  followed  by  its 
Unagidani Office in Osaka, February 2009, and Chiba Office, 
March 2013. They created jobs not only for the physically chal-
lenged but also for the mentally challenged. As of March 2015, 
physically- and mentally-challenged employees accounted for 
2.07% of our total number of employees, above the legally man-
dated level of 2.0%.

•Providing Support for a Good Work-Life Balance

The Group is improving its “Employees Support Program” to 
support balancing of both work and childcare. We are preparing 
a guidebook which describes the system enabling employees to 
take advantage of the system according to their life stage.
■ Preparation of “Work-Life Balance Guidebook”

Card, JRI

■  Preparation  of  the  “Guide  to  the  Support  System  for 

Balancing Both Work and Childcare”
 The Minato Bank and Kansai Urban Banking Corporation

Group  companies  have  already  implemented  programs  for 
parental leave, nursing care leave, shorter working hours and 
other programs providing better benefits than those mandated 
by law. Further, these programs improve the support system for 
balancing both work and childcare by implementing the child-
care allowance system and rehiring former employees system. 
Additionally, these companies organize the “Visit the Workplace 
Day” event for their children to visit the workplace of parents 
for children to gain an understanding of the workplace. They 
also encourage their employees to take summer vacation and 
reduce their working hours.

Enhancing Awareness for Human Rights
SMBC has implemented in its corporate principles of action the 
statements that “we will respect the individual human dignity of 
our clients and employees” and “we will not allow any discrimi-
nation.” The Human Rights Committee is principally in charge 
of implementing initiatives to raise awareness for human rights 
for all employees. Specifically, we are holding training seminars 
for persons in charge of human rights promotion of respective 
departments by inviting outside professional experts as instruc-
tors and also holding group training seminars for general man-
agers, employees of newly appointed to management positions 
and newly-hired employees. 

Further, each department of SMBC conducts human rights 
awareness seminars and gives employees a test on human 
rights awareness, and during the human rights promotion week, 
we invite employees to come up with human rights promotion 
statement. Kansai Urban Banking implements initiatives to raise 
awareness for human rights by conducting human rights aware-
ness seminars and inviting employees to come up with human 
rights promotion statement on regional group basis. Our Group 
participates in the “United Nations Global Compact” to indicate 
its endorsement for 10 principles with respect to human rights, 
labor, environment and anti-corruption.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

(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 outstanding 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 generally 

accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), which are different in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements from International 

Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

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 principles and standards as required under U.S. GAAP or IFRS, in which case 

a certain limited number of items are adjusted based on their materiality. 

These consolidated financial statements are translated from the consolidated financial statements contained in the annual securities report 

filed under the Financial Instrument and Exchange Act of Japan (“FIEA based financial statements”) except for the addition of the non-

consolidated financial statements and US dollar figures.

Amounts less than 1 million yen have been rounded down. 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 

prevailing exchange rate at March 31, 2015 which was ¥120.15 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.

The consolidated financial statements released in previous fiscal years were restructured from the FIEA based financial statements by 

making several adjustments and reclassifications that are no longer made in these consolidated financial statements.

(Notes to significant accounting policies for preparing consolidated financial statements)
1.  Scope of consolidation

(1)  Consolidated subsidiaries

other reasons.

(2)  Unconsolidated subsidiaries 
  Principal company: 

SBCS Co., Ltd.

belong to them substantially. Therefore, they have been excluded from the scope of consolidation pursuant to Article 5, Paragraph 1 
Item 2 of Ordinance on Terminology, Forms and Preparation Methods of Consolidated Financial Statements.

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, 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.

2.  Application of the equity method

(1)  Unconsolidated subsidiaries accounted for by the equity method    

  The number of unconsolidated subsidiaries accounted for by the equity method at March 31, 2015 is 5.

on Terminology, Forms and Preparation Methods of Consolidated Financial Statements.

(4)  Affiliates that are not accounted for by the equity method

Principal company: 
Affiliates that are not accounted for by the equity method are also excluded from the scope of equity method because their total

as of March 31. The subsidiaries with balance sheets dated October 31 are consolidated using the financial statements as of January 31. 
Certain subsidiaries with balance sheets dated December 31 and January 31 are consolidated using the financial statements as of March 
31. Other subsidiaries are consolidated using the financial statements as of their respective balance sheet dates.

Appropriate adjustments were made to material transactions during the periods between their respective balance sheet dates and the 

consolidated closing date. 

4.  Accounting policies

(1)  Standards for recognition and measurement of 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 sheets on a trade date basis. Profits 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 market value, and financial 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.

“Trading income” and “Trading losses” include 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. 

(2)  Standards for recognition and measurement of securities

1)  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 (based on 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 are carried at their average market prices during the final month of the fiscal year, and bonds and others are carried at their 
fiscal year-end market prices (cost of securities sold is calculated using primarily the moving-average method). Other securities which 
are extremely difficult to determine fair value 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.

2)  Securities included in money held in trust are carried in the same method as in (1) and (2) 1) above.

(3)  Standards for recognition and measurement of derivative transactions

Derivative transactions, excluding those classified as trading derivatives, are carried at fair value.

SMFGSMFG 2015Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(4)  Depreciation 

1)  Tangible fixed assets (excluding assets for rent and lease assets)

Buildings owned by SMFG and SMBC are depreciated using the straight-line method. Others are depreciated using the declining-
balance method. The estimated useful lives of major items are as follows:

Buildings: 
Others: 
Other consolidated subsidiaries depreciate their tangible fixed assets primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated 

7 to 50 years
2 to 20 years

2) 

useful lives of the respective assets.
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).

3)  Assets for rent

Assets for rent are depreciated using the straight-line method, assuming that lease terms are, in principle, their depreciation period 
and the salvage is the estimated disposal value when the lease period expires.

4)  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 terms are their expected lifetime and salvage values are zero.

(5)  Reserve for possible loan losses 

The reserve for possible loan losses of major consolidated subsidiaries is provided as detailed 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 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 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.

Discounted Cash Flows (“DCF”) method is used for claims on borrowers whose cash flows from collection of principals 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 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 based on the historical loan-loss ratio. For claims originated in specific overseas countries, an 

additional reserve is provided 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 from these operating sections, audits their assessment.

The reserve for possible loan losses of SMFG and other consolidated subsidiaries for general claims is provided 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 borrowers 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 as of ended March 31, 2014 and 2015 were ¥511,043 million and ¥363,585 million.

(6)  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 fiscal year. 
(7)  Reserve for executive bonuses 

The reserve for executive bonuses is provided for payment of bonuses to directors, corporate auditors and other executive officers, in the 
amount of estimated bonuses, which are attributable to the fiscal year. 

(8)  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. 

(9)  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.

SMFGNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements(10) Reserve for reimbursement of deposits 

The reserve for reimbursement of deposits which were derecognized from liabilities under certain conditions is provided for the possible 
losses on the future claims of withdrawal based on historical reimbursements. 

(11) Reserve for losses on interest repayment 

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

(12) Reserve under the special laws 

The reserve under the special laws is a reserve for contingent liabilities and provided for compensation for losses from securities related 
transactions or derivative transactions, pursuant to Article 46-5 of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. 

(13) Employee retirement benefits

In calculating the projected benefit obligation, the benefit formula basis is used to attribute the expected benefit attributable to the 
respective fiscal year.

Unrecognized prior service cost is amortized on a straight-line basis, primarily over 9 years within the employees’ average remaining 

service period at incurrence.

Unrecognized net actuarial gain (loss) is amortized on a straight-line basis, primarily over 9 years within the employees’ average 

remaining service period, commencing from the next fiscal year of incurrence. 

(14) 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 rate 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 rate prevailing at their respective balance sheet dates.

(15) Lease transactions 

1)  Recognition of income on finance leases 

Interest income is allocated to each period. 
2)  Recognition of income on operating leases 

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

3)  Recognition of income and expenses on installment sales 

Primarily, installment-sales-related income and expenses are recognized on a due-date basis over the full period of the installment 
sales. 
(16) Hedge accounting 

1)  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” (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 classifying 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. 

As for the individual hedges, SMBC also assesses the effectiveness of such individual hedges. 

2)  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 transactions 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 sufficient on-balance (actual) or off-balance (forward) 
liability exposure exists to cover the cost of the hedged securities denominated in the same foreign currencies. 

3)  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 accordingly evaluates the effectiveness of such individual hedges.

SMFGSMFG 2015Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements4)  Transactions between consolidated subsidiaries 

As for derivative transactions between consolidated subsidiaries or internal transactions between trading accounts 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 transactions 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 consolidated subsidiaries apply the deferred hedge accounting, the fair value hedge accounting or the special treatment 

for interest rate swaps. 
(17) Amortization of goodwill 

Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method over a period in which its benefit is expected to be realized, not to exceed 20 
years. Immaterial goodwill is charged or credited when incurred.

(18) Scope of “Cash and cash equivalents” on consolidated statements of cash flows

For the purposes of presenting the consolidated statements of cash flows, “Cash and cash equivalents” are cash on hand, non-interest 
earning deposits with banks and deposits with the Bank of Japan.

(19) Consumption taxes 

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

(Changes in accounting policies due to application of new or revised accounting standards)
1.  Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits and related guidance
SMFG has adopted Paragraph 35 of “Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits” (ASBJ Statement No. 26 issued on May 17, 2012, 
“Accounting Standard”) and Paragraph 67 of “Guidance on Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits” (ASBJ Guidance No. 25 issued on 
March 26, 2015, “Guidance”) from the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Accordingly, SMFG has reviewed its calculation 
methods for the projected benefit obligation and service cost, and changed the method for attributing the expected benefit to periods of service 
from a straight-line basis to a benefit formula basis.

The Accounting Standard and Guidance are applied in accordance with the transitional treatment stipulated in Paragraph 37 of the 

Accounting Standard. The effect, arising from the change in calculation method for the projected benefit obligation and service cost, is reflected 
in retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.

As a result, net defined benefit asset increased by ¥49,052 million, net defined benefit liability decreased by ¥3,646 million and retained 
earnings increased by ¥35,459 million as of the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. The effect of these changes on profit and 
loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 is considered to be immaterial.

The effect of this change on net assets per share is disclosed in “(Per Share Data).”

2.  Revision of Accounting Standard for Business Combinations and related rules
“Accounting Standard for Business Combinations” (ASBJ Statement No. 21), “Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial Statements” 
(ASBJ Statement No. 22), “Accounting Standard for Business Divestitures” (ASBJ Statement No. 7) and other related standards and 
implementation guidance were revised on September 13, 2013, and became effective from fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2014. 
SMFG has prospectively adopted these revised accounting standards and implementation guidance from the beginning of the fiscal year ended 
March 31, 2015 (excluding the provisions defined in Paragraph 39 of Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial Statements), in 
accordance with the transitional treatment set forth in Paragraph 58-2 (4) of Accounting Standard for Business Combinations, Paragraph 44-5 
(4) of Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial Statements, and Paragraph 57-4 (4) of Accounting Standard for Business Divestitures.

In accordance with these revisions, SMFG’s accounting policies have been changed as follows:
-  the difference arising from a change in SMFG’s ownership interest in a subsidiary over which SMFG continues to have control is 

recognized in capital surplus, and acquisition costs are expensed in the period incurred, and

-  for a business combination occurring on or after April 1, 2014, an adjustment to the provisional amount arising from the finalization of 
the tentative accounting treatment relating to the purchase price allocation is retrospectively recognized in the consolidated financial 
statements for the accounting period in which the combination occurs.

The effect of these changes on profit and loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 is considered to be immaterial.

(Additional information)
Effect of a change in the corporate income tax rule
In accordance with the “Act for Partial Amendment of the Income Tax Act, etc.” (Act No. 9, 2015) and the “Act to Amend the Local Taxation 
Act, etc.” (Act No. 2, 2015) promulgated on March 31, 2015, the corporate income tax rate will be lowered from fiscal years beginning on or 
after April 1, 2015. Additionally, beginning from fiscal years starting on or after April 1, 2015, the use of tax loss carryforwards will be limited 
to the equivalent of 65% of taxable income before deducting tax loss carryforwards, and beginning from fiscal years starting on or after April 1, 
2017, the use of tax loss carryforwards will be limited to the equivalent of 50% of taxable income before deducting tax loss carryforwards.
As a result of these changes, net income decreased by ¥30,248 million and total accumulated other comprehensive income increased by 

¥77,813 million.

*9  Commitment line contracts on overdrafts and loans

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, 2014 and 2015 were as follows:

2015

¥53,473,427

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.

*10  Land revaluation excess

SMBC and another consolidated subsidiary revaluated their own land for business activities in accordance with the “Act on Revaluation of 
Land” (the “Act”) (Act No. 34, effective March 31, 1998) and “Act for Partial Revision of Act on Revaluation of Land” (Act No. 19, 
effective March 31, 2001). The income taxes corresponding to the net unrealized gains are reported in “Liabilities” as “Deferred tax 
liabilities for land revaluation excess,” and the net unrealized gains, net of deferred taxes, are reported as “Land revaluation excess” in “Net 
assets.” 

A certain affiliate also revaluated its own land for business activities in accordance with the Act. The net unrealized gains, net of 

deferred taxes, are reported as “Land revaluation excess” in “Net assets.” 

Date of the revaluation 

SMBC: March 31, 1998 and March 31, 2002 
Another consolidated subsidiary and an affiliate: March 31, 1999 and March 31, 2002 

Method of revaluation (stipulated in Article 3-3 of the Act) 

SMBC: Fair values were determined by applying appropriate adjustments for land shape and timing of appraisal to the values 
stipulated in Articles 2-3, 2-4 or 2-5 of “Order for Enforcement of Act on Revaluation of Land” (Cabinet Order No. 119 of March 31, 
1998). 
Another consolidated subsidiary and an affiliate: Fair values were determined based on the values stipulated in Articles 2-3 and 2-5 of

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 SMFG and other consolidated subsidiaries, a branch or 
other group is the smallest asset grouping unit as well. 

SMBC and other consolidated 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 
“Extraordinary losses.” SMBC reduced the carrying amounts of idle assets, and other consolidated subsidiaries reduced the carrying 
amounts of their branches and idle assets. 

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.

(Notes to financial instruments) 
1.  Status of financial instruments

(1)  Policies on financial instruments 

SMFG Group conducts banking and other financial services such as leasing, securities, consumer finance, and system development and 
information processing. Its banking business includes deposit taking, lending, securities trading and investment, remittance and 
transfer, foreign exchange, bond subscription agent, trust business, and over-the-counter sales of securities investment trusts and 
insurance products. 

These services entail holding of financial assets such as loans and bills discounted, bonds, and stocks. Meanwhile, SMFG Group 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”). At SMBC, derivative transactions for ALM purposes are 
undertaken by the Treasury Dept. and the International Treasury Dept. of the Treasury Unit, while derivative transactions for trading 
purposes are undertaken by the Trading Dept. of the Treasury Unit. 

(2)  Details of financial instruments and associated risks 

1)  Financial assets 

The main financial assets held by SMFG Group 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 nonperformance 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 “(3) Risk management framework for financial instruments” below. 

2)  Financial liabilities 

Financial liabilities of SMFG Group 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 “(3) Risk management framework for financial instruments” 
below. 

3)  Derivative transactions 

Derivatives handled by SMFG Group include foreign exchange futures; futures, forwards, swaps and options related to interest rates, 
currencies, equities, bonds and commodities; 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 “(3) Risk management framework for financial instruments” below. 

Hedge accounting is applied to derivative transactions executed for ALM purposes, as necessary. Hedging instruments, hedged 

items, hedging policy and the method to assess the effectiveness of hedging are described in “(Notes to significant accounting 
policies for preparing consolidated financial statements), 4. Accounting policies, (16) Hedge accounting.” 

(3)  Risk management framework for financial instruments 

The fundamental matters on risk management for the entire SMFG Group are set forth in “Regulations on Risk Management.” 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 Dept., which, together 
with the Corporate Planning Dept., controls risk management across SMFG Group by monitoring the development and implementation 
of SMFG Group’s risk management system, and gives appropriate guidance as needed. Under this framework, SMFG comprehensively 
and systematically manages risks. 

1)  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. 

(a)  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 Dept. of the Risk Management Unit is responsible for the comprehensive management of 

credit risk. This department 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. calculating risk capital and risk-weighted 
assets) in cooperation with the Corporate Risk Management Dept. The department also monitors risk situations and regularly 
reports to the Management Committee and the Board of Directors. 

Moreover, the Credit Portfolio Management Dept. within the Credit & Investment Planning Dept. works to stabilize SMBC’s 

98

2015/08/03   11:37:35

SMFGSMFG 2015Notes to Consolidated Financial Statementsoverall credit portfolio through using credit derivatives and selling loan claims. 

The Credit Departments of Wholesale Banking Unit, Retail Banking Unit and other business units play a central role in 
credit screening and managing their units’ credit portfolios. In the Wholesale Banking Unit, the Credit Administration Dept. is 
responsible for formulating and implementing measures to reduce SMBC’s exposures mainly to borrowers classified as potentially 
bankrupt or lower. Each business unit establishes its credit limits based on the baseline amounts for each borrower grading 
category. Borrowers or loans perceived to have high credit risk undergo intensive evaluation and administration by the unit’s 
Credit Department. The Corporate Research Dept. analyzes industries as well as investigates individual borrowers’ business 
situations to detect early signs of problems.

Moreover, the Credit Risk Management 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, operating independently from the business units, audits asset quality, grading 
accuracy, self-assessment, and appropriateness of the credit risk management system, and reports the results directly to the Board 
of Directors and the Management Committee.

(b)  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 
screening 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. Based on this limit, guidelines are set for each business unit. Regular monitoring is conducted to ensure that these 
guidelines are being followed. 
•  Controlling concentration of 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 maximum loan amounts and conducting thorough loan reviews. To manage country risk, 
SMBC also has credit limit guidelines based on each country’s creditworthiness. 
•  Greater understanding of actual corporate conditions 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 

For non-performing loans and potential non-performing loans, SMBC carries out loan reviews to clarify credit policies and 
action plans, enabling it to swiftly implement measures to prevent deterioration of borrowers’ business situations, support 
business recoveries, collect on loans, and enhance loan security. 

In regards to financial instruments such as investments 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 evaluation 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 to appropriately manage risks of incurring losses.

In regards to credit risk of derivative transactions, the potential exposure based on the market price is regularly calculated 

and property 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 1 party to the other in case of bankruptcy or other default event, are 
implemented to reduce credit risk. 
2)  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. 

(a)  Market and liquidity risk management systems 

At SMBC, important matters such as basic policies for managing market and liquidity risks and risk management framework are 
determined by the Management Committee and then approved by the Board of Directors. 

The aforementioned Corporate Risk Management Dept., 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 

SMFG 2015

99

010_0800801372708.indd   99

SMFGNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements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 functioning and reports the audit results to the 
Management Committee, the Board of Directors and other concerned committees and departments. 

(b)  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 that may be incurred to 
a specific financial instrument for a given probability) within the market risk capital limit, which is set taking into account 
stockholders’ equity and other factors 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 fluctuations scenarios based on historical data) to measure VaR. Regarding banking 
activities (activities for generating profit through management of interest rates, terms, and other aspects of assets such as loans 
and bonds and liabilities such as deposits) and trading activities (activities for generating profit by taking advantage of short-
term fluctuations in market values and differences in value among markets), SMBC calculates the maximum loss that may 
occur as a result of market fluctuations in 1 day with a probability of 1% based on 4 years of historical observation. With 
regard to the holding of shares (such as listed shares) for the purpose of strategic investment, SMBC calculates the maximum 
loss that may occur as a result of market fluctuations in 1 year with a probability of 1% based on 10 years of historical 
observation. 

Regarding risks associated with foreign exchange rates, interest rates, share price, 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, 2015, total VaR of SMBC and its major consolidated subsidiaries was ¥39.0 billion for the banking activities, 
¥14.5 billion for the trading activities, and ¥1,447.7 billion for the holding of shares (such as 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 assumptions and 

calculation methods, and may not cover the risk of future market conditions fluctuating 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, maintaining a 
system of highly liquid supplementary funding sources, and establishing contingency plans. A funding gap is the amount of 
funds needed in the future to cover duration mismatch between required investments and funding resources. SMBC tries to 
avoid excessive reliance on short-term funds by managing funding gap limits and has established a contingency plan covering 
emergency action plans such as reducing funding gap limits. 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 to within a certain percentage of open interest in the entire market. 

(4)  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, on reasonably 
calculated prices. These prices have been calculated using certain assumptions, and may differ if calculated based on different 
assumptions.

*1 The amounts 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,” 
“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, with a net debt presented in square brackets.

(2)  Fair value calculation methodology for financial instruments 

Assets
1) Cash and due from 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, for dues from banks without maturity and overdrafts with no specified repayment dates, the book values are used 
as fair value as they are considered to approximate their fair value. 

For short-term transactions with remaining maturity not exceeding 6 months, in principle, the book values are used as fair value as 

they are considered to approximate their fair value. 

The fair value of those with a remaining maturity 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 of a risk-free interest rate and an adjustment). 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 rate and a credit risk premium.

SMFGSMFG 2015Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
Regarding claims on bankrupt borrowers, effectively bankrupt borrowers and potentially bankrupt borrowers, expected losses on 

such claims are calculated based on either the expected recoverable amount from disposal of collateral or guarantees, or the present 
value of expected future cash flows. Since the claims’ balance sheet amounts minus the expected amount of loan losses approximate 
their fair values, such amounts are considered to be their fair values. 
5) Monetary claims bought: 
The fair values of monetary claims bought, such as subordinated trust beneficiary interests related to securitized housing loans, are 
based on the assessed value of underlying housing loans securitized through the trust scheme 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 trading purposes are, in principle, based on their market price at the end 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 as of the end of the fiscal year. 

In light of the “Practical Solution on Measurement of Fair Value for Financial Assets” (ASBJ Practical Issue Task Force No. 25), the 
fair values of floating rate 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 taking into account the borrower’s internal rating and pledged collateral by a rate comprising a risk-free interest rate 
and an adjustment. However, the fair values of bonds, such as private placement bonds issued by bankrupt borrowers, effectively 
bankrupt borrowers and potentially bankrupt borrowers are based on the bond’s book value after the deduction of the expected amount 
of a loss on the bond computed by using the same method applied to the estimation of a loan loss. Meanwhile, 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. The fair values of short-term 
transactions with remaining maturity not exceeding 6 months are also based on their book values, as their book values are considered 
to approximate their fair values. The fair values of transactions with a remaining maturity of more than 6 months are, in principle, 
based on the present value of estimated future cash flows calculated using the rate applied to the same type of deposits that are newly 
accepted until the end of the remaining maturity. 
3) Call money and bills sold, 4) Payables under repurchase agreements, 5) Payables under securities lending transactions, 6) 
Commercial paper, 8) Borrowed money, 10) Short-term bonds and 11) Bonds: 
The fair values of short-term transactions with remaining maturity not exceeding 6 months are based on their book values, as their 
book values are considered to approximate their fair values. For transactions with a remaining maturity of more than 6 months, their 
fair values are, in principle, based on the present value of estimated future cash flows calculated using the refinancing rate applied to 
the same type of instruments for the remaining maturity. 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 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 as of 
the end 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. 
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 prices calculated based on the present value of the future 
cash flows, option valuation models, etc. The fair values of commodity derivatives transactions are based on their prices calculated 
based on the derivative instrument’s components, including price and contract term.

*1 They are beneficiary claims on loan trusts that (a) behave more like equity than debt, (b) do not have market prices, and (c) it is difficult to rationally estimate their fair 

values. 

*2 They are not included in the scope of fair value disclosure since there are no market prices and it is extremely difficult to determine their fair values. 
*3 They are capital contributions with no market prices. The above-stated amount includes the book value amount of investments in the partnership of which the SMFG 

records net changes in their balance sheets and statements of income. 

*4 Unlisted stocks and investments in partnership totaling ¥9,781 million and ¥12,762 million were written-off in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and 2015,

Fiscal year ended March 31, 2015
There are no significant corresponding transactions to be disclosed.

7.  Write-down of securities 
Bonds classified as held-to-maturity and other securities (excluding securities whose fair values are extremely difficult to determine) are 
considered as impaired if the fair value decreases materially below the acquisition cost and such decline is not considered as recoverable. The fair 
value is recognized as the consolidated 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, 2014 and 2015 were ¥7,250 million and ¥5,992 million, respectively. The rule for 
determining “material decline” is as follows and is based on the classification of issuers under the rules of self-assessment of assets. 

Bankrupt/Effectively bankrupt/Potentially bankrupt issuers:

Fair value is lower than acquisition cost.

Issuers requiring caution:

Normal issuers:

Fair value is 30% or lower than acquisition cost.

Fair value is 50% or lower than acquisition cost.

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.

(Notes to employee retirement benefits)
1.  Outline of employee retirement benefits 
SMFG’s consolidated subsidiaries have funded and unfunded contributory defined benefit pension plans and defined-contribution pension plans 
for benefit payments to their employees.

Funded contributory defined benefit pension plans mainly consist of contributory funded defined benefit pension plans and lump-sum 

severance indemnity plans which set up employee retirement benefit trusts.

Unfunded contributory defined benefit pension plans are lump-sum severance indemnity plans which do not use such trust scheme.
Some consolidated subsidiaries adopt the simplified method in calculating the projected benefit obligation. Additional benefits may also be 

granted when employees retire.

3)  Valuation technique used for valuating fair value of stock options

Stock options granted in the fiscal year were valuated using the following valuation technique.

•  Valuation technique: Black-Scholes option-pricing model
•  Principal parameters used in the option-pricing model

Date of resolution
Expected volatility *1 ..........................................................................
Average expected life *2 .......................................................................
Expected dividends *3 .........................................................................
Risk-free interest rate *4 ......................................................................

July 30, 2014
28.16%
4 years
¥120 per share
0.11%

*1. Calculated based on the actual stock prices during 4 years from August 16, 2010 to August 15, 2014.
*2. The average expected life could not be estimated rationally due to insufficient amount of data.

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

*3. Expected dividends are based on the expected dividends on common stock for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 of the date of grant.  
*4. Japanese government bond yield corresponding to the average expected  life.

4)  Method of estimating the 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.

*1 Calculated based on the actual stock prices during 2 years from July 19, 2012 to July 18, 2014.
*2 The average expected life could not be estimated rationally due to insufficient amount of data. Therefore, it was estimated based on average assumption periods of 

directors of MINATO.

*3 Expected dividends are based on the actual dividends on common stock for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.
*4 Japanese government bond yield corresponding to the average expected life.

4)  Method of estimating the 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.

3.  Adjustments to deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from a change in the income tax rate
In accordance with the Act for Partial Amendment of the Income Tax Act, etc. (Act No. 9, 2015) and the Act for Partial Amendment of the 
Local Tax Act, etc. (Act No. 2, 2015) on March 31, 2015, the corporate income tax rate is lowered from fiscal years beginning on or after April 
1, 2015. As a result of these changes, the effective statutory tax rate used by SMFG and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries for the calculation 
of deferred tax assets and liabilities was changed from the current rate of 35.64% to 33.06% for temporary differences and other items expected 
to be eliminated during the period beginning from the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2015, and to 32.26% for temporary differences and 
other items expected to be eliminated in the fiscal year beginning on or after April 1, 2016. As a result of these changes in tax rates, “Net 
deferred tax assets (liabilities)” increased by ¥49,304 million, “Net unrealized gains (losses) on other securities” increased by ¥75,867 million, 
“Net deferred gains (losses) on hedges” decreased by ¥1,318 million, “Remeasurements of defined benefit plans” increased by ¥2,285 million, 
and “Income tax deferred” increased by ¥27,529 million before considering about minority interests. “Deferred tax liabilities for land 
revaluation excess” decreased by ¥3,604 million, while “Land revaluation excess” increased by the same amount before considering about 
minority interests.

SMFGSMFG 2015Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(Notes to segment and other related information)
[Segment information]
1.  Summary of reportable segment 
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 and SMFG’s Management Committee regularly in order to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment 
and assess its performance.

Besides commercial banking, SMFG Group companies conduct businesses such as leasing, securities, consumer finance, system development 

and data processing. The primary businesses, “Commercial banking,” “Leasing,” “Securities” and “Consumer Finance,” are separate reportable 
segments, and other businesses are aggregated as “Other business.”

SMBC assesses business performance by classifying “Commercial banking” into the following 4 business units: “Wholesale banking unit,” 
“Retail banking unit” and “International banking unit” that are based on the client segment, and “Treasury unit” that is based on the financial 
markets.

SMBC reviewed its domestic business units with an aim to improve its ability to meet customers’ needs and provide more value-added 

products and services by reconstructing business model for each segment. “Customer banking unit,” “Middle market banking unit” and 
“Corporate banking unit,” which were 3 domestic business units, have changed into 2 business units; “Retail banking unit” and “Wholesale 
banking unit.”

From the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, the performance assessment method was changed by, for example, changing the definition of 

consolidated net business profit, in order to enhance the group business management.

Information for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 indicates profit and loss amount by reportable segment prepared based on the above-

mentioned revisions.

2.  Method of calculating profit and loss amount by reportable segment 
Accounting methods applied to the reported business segment are the same as those described in “(Notes to significant accounting policies for 
preparing consolidated financial statements).” 

SMFG does not assess assets by business segments.

SMFGNotes to Consolidated Financial StatementsIndependent Auditor’s Report

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

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. 
(“SMFG”) and subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at March 31, 2014 and 2015, and the 
consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in net assets and cash flows for the years then 
ended, and basis of presentation, significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in 
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan, and for such internal control as management 
determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material 
misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.  We 
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan.  Those standards require 
that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 
whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.  

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the 

consolidated financial statements.  The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of the 
risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.  In making 
those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the 
consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, while 
the objective of the financial statement audit is not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the 
entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the 
reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the 
consolidated financial statements.  

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit 

opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 
SMFG and subsidiaries as at March 31, 2014 and 2015, and their financial performance and cash flows for the years 
then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan.

Convenience Translation

The U.S. dollar amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements with respect to the year ended March 
31, 2015 are presented solely for convenience.  Our audit also included the translation of yen amounts into U.S. 
dollar amounts and, in our opinion, such translation has been made on the basis described in basis of presentation.

Notes: 1. Domestic operations include yen-denominated transactions by domestic branches, while international operations include foreign-currency-denominated 

transactions by domestic branches and operations by overseas branches. Yen-denominated nonresident transactions and Japan offshore banking 
accounts are included in international operations.

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

after deduction of expenses (2014, ¥1 million) related to the management of money held in trust.

3. Figures in brackets [ ] indicate interest payments between domestic and international operations. As net interest figures are shown for interest rate swaps 

and similar instruments, some figures for domestic and international operations do not add up to their sums.

4. The figures in the total column of “Other operating income” and “Other operating expenses” are less than the combined total for “Domestic operations” 

and “International operations” (2014, ¥355 million) due to the presentation of net amounts for gains (losses) from derivative transactions.

5. Gross banking profit rate = Gross banking profit / Average balance of interest-earning assets ✕ 100

Notes: 1. “Interest-earning assets” are shown after deduction of the average balance of noninterest-earning deposits (2015, ¥20,982,578 million; 2014, ¥11,857,804 

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 (2014, ¥2,269 million). “Interest-bearing liabilities” are shown after deduction of 
amounts equivalent to the average balance of money held in trust (2014, ¥2,269 million) and corresponding interest (2014, ¥1 million).

3. Figures in brackets [ ] indicate the average balances of interdepartmental lending and borrowing activities between domestic and international operations 

and related interest expenses. As net interest figures are shown for interest rate swaps and similar instruments, some figures for domestic and international 
operations do not add up to their sums.

Notes: 1. “Interest-earning assets” are shown after deduction of the average balance of noninterest-earning deposits (2015, ¥21,076,146 million; 2014, ¥11,918,319 

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 (2014, ¥2,269 million). “Interest-bearing liabilities” are shown after deduction of 
amounts equivalent to the average balance of money held in trust (2014, ¥2,269 million) and corresponding interest (2014, ¥1 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.

SMBC 
Capital Ratio Information (Consolidated)

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 “International Standard” in
the Notification), SMFG has adopted the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based (AIRB) approach for calculating credit risk-weighted asset amounts
and the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) for calculating the operational risk equivalent amount.

“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.

■ Scope of Consolidation
1. Consolidated Capital Ratio Calculation

• Number of consolidated subsidiaries: 317
  Please refer to “Principal Subsidiaries and Affiliates” on page 264 for their names and business outline.
• Scope of consolidated subsidiaries for calculation of the consolidated capital ratio is based on the scope of consolidated subsidiaries for
  preparing consolidated financial statements.
• There are no affiliates to which the proportionate consolidation method is applied.

2.  Restrictions on Movement of Funds and Capital within Holding Company Group
  There are no special restrictions on movement of funds and capital among SMFG and its group companies.

3.  Names of companies among subsidiaries of bank-holding companies (other financial institutions), with the Basel Capital Accord 

required amount, and total shortfall amount

  Not applicable.

■ Capital Structure Information (Consolidated Capital Ratio (International 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 Practical Guideline 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 Internal-Ratings Based (IRB) approach.

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.

■ Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach
1. Scope

SMFG and the following consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based (AIRB) approach for exposures as of 
March 31, 2009.

(1) Domestic Operations

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company, Limited and SMBC Guarantee Co., Ltd.

(2) Overseas Operations

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (China) Limited, Sumitomo Mitsui 
Banking Corporation of Canada, Banco Sumitomo Mitsui Brasileiro S.A., ZAO Sumitomo Mitsui Rus Bank, PT Bank Sumitomo Mitsui 
Indonesia, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Malaysia Berhad, SMBC Leasing and Finance, Inc., SMBC Capital Markets, Inc., 
SMBC Nikko Capital Markets Limited, SMBC Derivative Products Limited and SMBC Capital Markets (Asia) Limited

THE MINATO BANK, LTD., Kansai Urban Banking Corporation, SMBC Finance Service Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and 

Leasing Co., Ltd. have adopted the Foundation Internal Ratings-Based (FIRB) approach.

Note: Directly controlled SPCs and limited partnerships for investment of consolidated subsidiaries using the AIRB approach have also adopted the AIRB approach. Further, the

AIRB approach is applied to equity exposures on a group basis, including equity exposures of consolidated subsidiaries applying the standardized approach.

(1) Corporate Exposures

A. Corporate, Sovereign and Bank Exposures

(A) Rating Procedures

• “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 are, in principle, included in “retail exposures.” However, credits of more than ¥100 million are 
treated as corporate exposures in accordance with the Notification.

• 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 36). Different rating series are used for domestic and overseas obligors — J1 ~ J10 for domestic 
obligors and G1 ~ G10 for overseas obligors — as shown in the table below due to differences in actual default rate levels and 
portfolios’ grade distribution. Different Probability of Default (PD) values are applied also.

• 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 and business loans 
are assigned obligor grades using grading models developed specifically for these exposures.

• 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).

• Loss Given Defaults (LGDs) and exposure at default (EAD) 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

• “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, 2015.
• 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

• “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.

• 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.

B. Qualifying Revolving Retail Exposures (QRRE)

(A) Rating Procedures

• “Qualifying revolving retail exposures” includes card loans and credit card balances.
• 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

• “Other retail exposures” includes business loans such as apartment construction loans and consumer loans such as My Car Loan.
• Business loans and consumer loans are rated as follows.
  a.  Business 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 LTV for 
business loans.
   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.

Notes: 1. “Business loans” as of March 31, 2014 includes apartment construction loans and standardized SME loans. Following implementation of our domestic business 

structure revision started in April 2014, “Business loans” as of March 31, 2015 include apartment construction loans. Domestic Corporate Exposures include 
standardized SME loans because the grading system of them are integrated into that of Corporate loans.

2. “Others” includes loans guaranteed by employers.
3. “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.

(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.

2. “Others” includes exposures to overseas corporate entities.
3. Weighted average risk weight is calculated by including the amount derived by multiplication of the expected loss by a risk weight of 1250% in the credit

risk-weighted assets.

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 an increase of ¥56.9 billion in total credit costs (the total of the general reserve, non-performing loan write-offs and 
gains on collection of written-off claims) compared to the previous fiscal year, amounting to ¥7.8 billion on a consolidated basis for 
fiscal year 2014.

SMBC recorded an increase of ¥43.8 billion in total credit costs compared to the previous fiscal year, which resulted in a gain on re-
versal of allowance for loan losses of ¥80.1 billion on a non-consolidated basis in fiscal year 2014. This is due primarily to a decrease in 
the loan provision ratio, attributable to improved business conditions of obligors and a downward trend in loan losses, in a continuous-
ly favorable economic environment.

■ Standardized Approach
1. Scope

The following consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the standardized approach for exposures as of March 31, 2015 (i.e. consolidated
subsidiaries not listed in the “Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach: 1. Scope” on page 190).

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

Cedyna Financial Corporation, SMBC Aviation Capital Limited

(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.

SMFGCapital Ratio Information■ 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. 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.

(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 large expo-
sure limit lines, risk concentration monitoring, and reporting to the Credit Risk Committee (please refer to pages 34 to 39). Further, ex-
posures 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.

SMFGSMFG 2015Capital Ratio Information■ 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.

SMFGCapital Ratio Information■ Securitization Exposures 
1. Risk Management Policy

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 risks.

Securitization transactions are subject to the following policies.

• Undertake those which allow separate assessment of underlying short-term assets by making credit decisions on individual underlying 

assets.

• Undertake those which cover short-term receivables, etc., by creating a framework mainly to estimate the default rate of the underlying 

assets based on the historical loan-loss ratio and ensure that they have sufficient subordination.

• Undertake others such as those requiring special management by implementing additional management, such as an analysis of the market 
environment. Particularly, with respect to securitization transactions backed by retail loans whose creditworthiness is relatively inferior, 
such as subprime loans in the U.S., the Group deals only with transactions that are sufficiently structured by taking into account not only 
the above policies, but others such as the underlying asset selection criteria of the originator and the average life. 
The Group shall basically not conduct resecuritization transactions. 
Its policy is to conduct securitization transactions by verifying effectiveness in mitigating credit risk through the use of the asset transfer 

type or synthetic type securitization transactions covering domestic and foreign exposures and using them as underlying exposures if 
securitization transactions are used as an approach for credit risk mitigation. 

The Group takes one of the following positions for securitization transactions.

• 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)

• Investor
• 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. Overview of Risk Characteristics

Securitization exposures have, in addition to credit risk and market risk, the following intrinsic risks, which are properly managed based on 
the nature of each risk.
(1) Dilution Risk

Means the risk of a decrease in purchased receivables due to cancellation or termination of the original contract for the purchased receiv-
ables, or netting of debts between the original obligor and the original obligee.

(2) Servicer Risk

A. Commingling Risk

Means the risk of uncollectible funds, which should be collected from the underlying assets, due to the bankruptcy of the servicer 
before the delivery of the funds collected from the obligor of the receivables.

B. Performance Risk

Means the risk of difficulty in maintenance and collection due to the servicer’s failure to properly and accurately perform its clerical 
duties and procedures.

(3) Liquidity Risk

Means the risk that cash flows related to the underlying assets may be insufficient for paying the principal and interest of the securitiza-
tion exposure due to a timing mismatch between the securitization conduit’s receipt of the cash flows related to the underlying assets and 
payment of the securitization exposure of the principal and interest, etc.

(4) Fraud Risk

Means the risk of a decrease in or complete loss of the receivables subject to collection due to a fraud, prejudicial or other malicious act by 
a customer or a third-party obligor.

SMFGSMFG 2015Capital Ratio Information3. Calculation Methodology for Credit Risk-Weighted Assets and Market Risk Equivalent Amount

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.
• First, securitization exposures are examined and the ratings-based approach is applied to qualifying exposures.
• The remaining exposures are examined and the supervisory formula is applied to qualifying exposures.
• In cases where neither the ratings-based approach nor the supervisory formula can be applied, a risk weight of 1250% is applied.

Note that the application of the ratings-based approach is subject to monitoring in accordance with the “Regulations Concerning the 
Distribution, etc. of Securitized Products” and the “Standardized Information Reporting Package (SIRP)” published by the Japan Securities 
Dealers Association. The same applies to resecuritized products.

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.

In order to determine market risk equivalent amounts of “securitization exposures,” general market risk is subject to the standardized 
measurement method while specific risk is based on the risk weights corresponding to the ratings published by qualifying rating agencies 
pursuant to the regulations set forth in the Notification.

4. Type of Securitization Conduit Used in Securitization Transactions Associated with Third Party Assets and Status of Holdings of 

Securitization Exposures Related to Such Transactions
In order to undertake securitization transactions related to third-party assets, the Group mainly uses a special purpose company (SPC) as a 
securitization conduit.

If such transactions are undertaken, the following securitization exposures result.
• Backup line to the ABCP issued by the securitization conduit (off-balance sheet assets)
• ABL to the securitization conduit (on-balance sheet assets), etc.

5. Names of Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies Holding Securitization Exposures Related to Securitization Transactions 

Conducted by Holding Company Group
No securitization exposures related to the security transactions conducted by the Holding Company Group are held by the subsidiaries or 
affiliated companies excluding consolidated subsidiaries.

6. Accounting Policy on Securitization Transactions

The recognition of the generation and extinguishment of financial assets and financial liabilities associated with securitization transactions 
and the valuation and accounting treatment thereof are mainly governed by the “Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments” (ASBJ 
Statement No. 10).

7. Qualifying External Ratings Agencies

In order to apply the rating-based approach under the IRB approach or standardized approach or to calculate an amount of market risk asso-
ciated with specific risk, 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

• For securitization transactions subject to the ratings-based approach, the amount is estimated based on information on underlying assets obtainable from 

customers, etc.

• 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

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

above.

• 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. Asset type classification is based on the major items in the underlying assets for each transaction.
5. “Other claims” includes lease fees.
6. Following Articles 230 and 248 of the Notification, there are no amounts that represent “exposure to products subject to early amortization provisions” to 

investors.

7. There are no amounts that represent “assets held for securitization transactions.”

SMFGCapital 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 and default risk.
Regarding stocks of subsidiaries, assets and liabilities of subsidiaries are risk-managed on a consolidated basis. As for stocks of affiliates, 
risks related to gains and losses from investments are recognized separately. As in each case maximum allowable amount of risk is managed 
individually, risks as stocks are not measured.

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.

SMFGCapital Ratio Information■ Market Risk
1. Scope

The following approaches are used to calculate market risk equivalent amounts.
(1) Internal Models Method

General market risk of SMBC, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (China) 
Limited, SMBC Capital Markets, Inc., SMBC Nikko Capital Markets Limited, SMBC Derivative Products Limited, and SMBC Capital 
Markets (Asia) Limited

(2) Standardized Measurement Method

• Specific risk
• General market risk of consolidated subsidiaries other than SMBC, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited,  

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (China) Limited, SMBC Capital Markets, Inc., SMBC Nikko Capital Markets Limited,  
SMBC Derivative Products Limited, and SMBC Capital Markets (Asia) Limited

• A portion of general market risk of SMBC

2. Valuation Method Corresponding to Transaction Characteristics

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.

Notes: 1. The VaR results for a one-day holding period with a one-sided confidence interval of 99.0%, computed daily using the historical simulation method based on four years of

historical observations.

2. The stressed VaR is calculated on a daily basis by using the historical simulation method for the holding period of one day, one-sided confidence interval of 99.0%, and

measurement period of 12 months (including the stress period).

3. Specific risks for the trading book are excluded.
4. Principal consolidated subsidiaries are included.

■ 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.

1. Operational Risk Equivalent Amount Calculation Methodology

SMFG adopted the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) for exposures as of March 31, 2008. The following consolidated subsidiaries
have also adopted the AMA, and the remaining consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the Basic Indicator Approach (BIA).

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company, Limited, The Japan Research Institute, Limited, SMBC 
Friend Securities Co., Ltd., Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Co., Ltd., SMBC Finance Service Co., Ltd., Kansai Urban Banking 
Corporation, SMBC Guarantee Co., Ltd., THE MINATO BANK, LTD., SMBC Center Service Co., Ltd., SMBC Delivery Service Co., 
Ltd., SMBC Green Service Co., Ltd., SMBC International Business Co., Ltd., SMBC Loan Business Service Co., Ltd., SMBC Loan 
Administration and Operations Service Co., Ltd., Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking 
Corporation (China) Limited, SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., Cedyna Financial Corporation and SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd.

2. Outline of the AMA

For the “Outline of the AMA,” please refer to pages 43 to 45.

3. Usage of Insurance to Mitigate Risk

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

Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA)
Based on the operational risk measurement methods used in the internal 
management  of  financial  institutions,  this  is  a  method  for  obtaining  
the  operational  risk  equivalent  amount  by  calculating  the  maximum  
amount of operational risk loss expected over a period of one year, with  
a one-sided confidence interval of 99.9%.

Basic Indicator Approach (BIA)
A  calculation  approach  in which an  average  value for the most  recent 
three years derived by multiplying gross profit for the financial institution 
as a whole by certain level (15%) is deemed to be the operational risk 
equivalent amount.

CCF
Abbreviation for Credit Conversion Factor
Ratio required for converting off-balance sheet items such as guarantees
or derivatives into on-balance sheet credit exposure equivalents.

CCP-related exposure
Exposure to a central counterparty (CCP) that interposes itself between

becoming  the  buyer  to  every  seller  and  the  seller  to  every  buyer  and 
thereby ensuring the future performance of open contracts.

Internal models approach
Methods of measuring market risk equivalent amount as the value at risk
(VaR) calculated with models determined by each bank.

Internal models method
One  of  the  methods  of  market-based  approach  using  the  VaR  model  
to  calculate  the  loss  for  shares  held  by  the  bank  applying  the  Internal

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group (SMFG)

■ Compensation Framework of SMFG and Its Group Companies
1. Scope of Officers, Employees and Others

The scope of officers, employees and others whose compensation is subject to disclosure under the revised Cabinet Office on Disclosure of
Corporate Affairs, etc. and other ordinances are as described below.
(1) Scope of Officers

Officers subject to compensation disclosure are directors and corporate auditors of SMFG (excluding outside directors and corporate
auditors).

(2) Scope of Employees and Others

Employees and others subject to compensation disclosure are employees of SMFG and officers and employees of its major consolidated
subsidiaries who are highly compensated and have a material influence on the business management or the assets of SMFG and its major
consolidated subsidiaries.
a)  Scope of major consolidated subsidiaries

A major consolidated subsidiary is a consolidated subsidiary of SMFG with total assets accounting for more than 2% of the total
consolidated assets of SMFG and has a material influence on the management of SMFG and its group companies. Specifically, they are
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., Kansai Urban Banking Corporation, The Minato Bank Ltd.
and overseas subsidiaries such as Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation
(China) Limited.

b)  Scope of highly compensated persons

A highly compensated person is an individual whose compensation paid by SMFG or its major subsidiaries is equal to or more than
the base amount. The base amount of SMFG is set at ¥60 million which is based on the average amount of compensation paid to the
officers of SMFG and SMBC (excluding officers appointed or retired during the fiscal year in question) over the last three fiscal years
(hereinafter “executive compensation amount”) and is applied to all group companies. This is because many of the officers of SMFG
also serve as officers of SMBC, and their executive compensation amount is determined according to their contribution to the group
as a whole. With respect to lump-sum retirement payment, the executive compensation amount for the fiscal year in question is “(his/
her executive compensation amount – lump-sum retirement payment) + (lump-sum retirement payment/years of service)” and the
executive compensation amount calculated using this formula is compared to the base amount.

c)  Material influence on the business management or assets of SMFG and its major consolidated subsidiaries

A person has a material influence on the business management or assets of SMFG and its major consolidated subsidiaries if his/her
regular transactions or regular matters managed by him/her have a substantial impact on the business management of SMFG and its
group companies, or losses incurred through such actions have a significant impact on the financial situation of SMFG and its group
companies. Specifically, persons having such influence are directors, corporate auditors and corporate officers of SMFG and its major
consolidated subsidiaries, both domestic and overseas.

2. Determination of Compensation

(1) For Officers

The compensation committee of SMFG, a majority of which is comprised of outside directors, deliberates on the compensation structure
and the amount and type of compensation paid to directors and corporate officers of SMFG and SMBC, independent from the influence
of corporate, consumer and other business units of SMBC. The committee deliberates on the amount and type of compensation paid
to directors and corporate officers within the maximum total amount of compensation approved at an ordinary general meeting of
shareholders. The amount and type of compensation paid to corporate auditors is determined through discussions among the corporate
auditors, within the maximum total amount of compensation approved at an ordinary general meeting of shareholders, in accordance
with the provisions of Article 387 (2) of the Companies Act.

(2) For Employees and Others

The amount and type of compensation paid to the employees of SMFG and SMBC and the officers and employees of major consolidated
subsidiaries are determined and paid according to the compensation policies established by the boards of directors of SMFG and its
major consolidated subsidiaries. Compensation systems based on the compensation policies are designed and documented by the HR
departments of respective companies, independent from the influence of corporate, consumer and other business units. The compensation
policies of major consolidated subsidiaries are regularly reported to the HR department of SMFG for review. The amount and type of
compensation for overseas officers and employees is determined and paid under the compensation system established by the relevant
office or subsidiary in accordance with local laws, regulations and employment practices.

SMFG■ Assessment of Design and Operation of Compensation Structure
Compensation Policy
(1) For Officers

SMFG has designed its compensation system for officers in accordance with its management plan based on its vision for the next decade 
of becoming a global financial group that, by earning the highest trust of our customers, leads the growth of Japan and the Asian region 
by enhancing its corporate value over the medium to long term. Specifically, the compensation paid to officers consists of:

• base salary;
• bonuses; and
• stock options

The base salary is determined based on job responsibilities, business performance and other factors, and bonuses are determined based 
on the assessment of business results for the fiscal year and the performance status of job responsibilities in the short term as well as the 
medium to long term for individual officers. Stock options are granted to officers (excluding outside directors and corporate auditors) 
according to their positions, subject to an exercise period, to foster the creation of long-term corporate value.

The amount and type of compensation for each fiscal year, which is set within the maximum total amount of compensation approved 

at an ordinary general meeting of shareholders, are examined by a third party for appropriateness; deliberated by the compensation  
committee chaired by an outside director; and submitted to the board of directors for approval. In addition, the amount and type of  
compensation to corporate auditors are determined through discussions among the corporate auditors, including outside corporate audi-
tors, within the maximum total amount of compensation approved at an ordinary general meeting of shareholders.

(2) For Employees and Others

SMFG and its major consolidated subsidiaries pay compensation to domestic employees and others consisting of:

• base salary;
• bonuses and other benefits

In order to link the business philosophy and strategy of the company to the roles and responsibilities of the employees and others, SMFG
and its major consolidated subsidiaries determine the amount and type of compensation taking into account their job responsibilities,
business performance and other factors. In addition, the HR departments of respective companies determine the amount and type
of compensation based on the overall company situation, including the business environment, business trends, and past payments of
compensation. The compensation policies for overseas employees and others have been established based on the domestic compensation
policies and taking into account local laws, regulations, employment practices and other relevant factors.

■ Consistency between Compensation Structure and Risk Management and Link between Compensation and 

Performance

1. SMFG

SMFG determines the amount and type of compensation paid to officers within the maximum total amount of compensation approved at an
ordinary general meeting of shareholders. SMFG also sets a budget for paying compensation to employees taking into account the group’s
financial situation and other factors. Performance-based compensation accounts for a relatively small percentage of total compensation, and
SMFG has not adopted a compensation structure that could affect the risk management of the group.

2. Major Consolidated Subsidiaries

The amount and type of compensation for officers and employees of a major subsidiary are determined by comprehensively taking into  
account the assessment of the subsidiary’s medium- and long-term earnings, and in the case of an overseas subsidiary, local laws, regulations 
and employment practices, and a compensation structure that could affect the risk management of the group has not been adopted. In addi-
tion, expenses for employee retention are recorded for employees of certain major consolidated subsidiaries.

of compensation based on the overall company situation, including the business environment, business trends, and past payments of 
compensation. The compensation policies for overseas employees and others have been established based on the domestic compensation 
policies and taking into account local laws, regulations, employment practices and other relevant factors.

■ Consistency between Compensation Structure and Risk Management and Link between Compensation and 

Performance

1. SMBC

SMBC determines the amount and type of compensation paid to officers within the maximum total amount of compensation approved at an 
ordinary general meeting of shareholders. SMBC also sets a budget for paying compensation to employees taking into account the group’s 
financial situation and other factors. Performance-based compensation accounts for a relatively small percentage of total compensation, and 
SMBC has not adopted a compensation structure that could affect the risk management of the group. In addition, expenses for employee 
retention are recorded for certain employees.

2. Major Consolidated Subsidiaries

The amount and type of compensation for officers and employees of a major subsidiary are determined by comprehensively taking into  
account the assessment of the subsidiary’s medium- and long-term earnings, and in the case of an overseas subsidiary, local laws, regulations 
and employment practices, and a compensation structure that could affect the risk management of the group has not been adopted. In addi-
tion, expenses for employee retention are recorded for employees of certain major consolidated subsidiaries.
