Takeshi Kunibe
Director President and Group CEO

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc.

SMFG’s on-the-ground capabilities, spirit of innovation,  
and speed are the key characteristics of our corporate DNA.  
By further evolving these characteristics, we will  
become a top tier global financial group.

8

2017 Annual ReportWe extend our sincerest appreciation to our stakeholders for the continued support and patronage.
  In April 2017, SMFG launched “SMFG Next Stage,” its new three-year Medium-Term  
Management Plan under a new group-wide operational structure. As Group CEO,  
I would like to take this opportunity to share with you my thoughts and expectations  
in regards to the plan.

Introduction
The challenging business environment for financial institutions is expected to continue with the Bank of 
Japan’s negative interest rate policy and the implementation of tighter international financial regulations. 
From a political perspective, protectionism tendencies in some countries and geopolitical risks are also  
likely to add to the climate of uncertainty. 
  When we turn our eyes to Japan, we expect to see retail customers shifting from cash savings to asset 
building and adopting digital/cashless solutions, and corporate customers accelerating their overseas  
expansion. Globally, we anticipate the comprehensive reorganization of industries along with a rise in  
infrastructure investment in Asia.

It was against this backdrop that we launched “SMFG Next Stage,” our new Medium-Term Management 
Plan, in April 2017. It was also at this time that we undertook a comprehensive overhaul of SMFG’s corporate 
governance system coupled with structural reforms. SMFG was transformed into a Company with Three  
Committees, and introduced Group-wide business units and the CxO system. With these changes, we 
entered into the next stage of realizing our mid- to long-term vision: “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.”

I have had the privilege of being appointed Group CEO under this new structure, and I view my new 
responsibilities with both great dedication and pride. I stand firmly committed to meeting the expectations  
of our stakeholders by uniting the collective strengths of the Group, and forging ahead with structural reforms 
so that we may realize sustainable growth and further increase corporate value.

Review of the Previous Medium-Term Management Plan (Fiscal 2014–2016)
Before discussing “SMFG Next Stage,” I would like to go over the previous three-year Medium-Term  
Management Plan, which represented the first stage of our efforts to realize our mid- to long-term vision.
  Under the previous Medium-Term Management Plan, we sought to develop and evolve client-centric busi-
ness models for our main domestic and international businesses, and build a platform for realizing Asia-centric 
operations and capture growth opportunities. We were able to achieve solid success in these efforts. We also 
steadily accumulated profits, and were thus able to meet our target Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio.
  On the other hand, in terms of profit, the business environment proved to be more difficult than anticipated 
three years ago, due to factors such as the Bank of Japan’s negative interest rate policy and the slowdown of 
the Asian economy. As a result, growth in top-line profit proved to be sluggish. In response to changes in  
the business environment, we revised our strategy to focus on bottom-line profit partway through fiscal 2015, 
a move that entailed implementing stronger controls on expenses/costs. However, we were still unable to 
achieve our targets for (a) growth rate of consolidated gross profit and (b) consolidated overhead ratio,  
due in part to upfront investments in business model reform.

New Medium-Term Management Plan (Fiscal 2017–2019) 
“SMFG Next Stage”
The new Medium-Term Management Plan, “SMFG Next Stage,” represents the second 
stage of our efforts to realize our mid-long term vision 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 combining the Group’s strengths with a more focused business management, 
we aim to be the financial institution of choice for our customers, to achieve sustainable 
growth and to enhance corporate value by providing value-added products and services.

2017 Annual ReportMessage from the Group CEO

  Based on the aforementioned uncertainties in the business environment, and the emer-
gence of new global and domestic trends, “SMFG Next Stage” puts forth three core 
policies: Discipline, Focus, and Integration. The plan also calls for us to promote digitaliza-
tion in all areas. I will now explain each of these core policies in depth.

Disciplined Business Management
Transformation of Business/Asset Portfolios and the Quality of our Earnings Base
In order to realize sustainable growth in bottom-line profit and improve return on equity,  
we will bolster profitability by placing even greater emphasis on capital, asset, and cost  
efficiencies. At the same time, we will promote healthy risk taking and sound credit cost 
control. We will maximize returns through the optimized allocation of limited management 
resources by adopting a disciplined approach to management, investments, expenses/
costs, and business operations.
  When formulating the Medium-Term Management Plan, we first established two axes,  
the first being our competitive advantage in the respective business and the second being 
the business growth potential for us. We then divided this grid into four quadrants and 
reviewed the businesses in our portfolio based on the quadrants. The Seven Core Business 
Areas to which we would prioritize the allocation of resources were selected through this 
process. The upper-right “Grow” quadrant represents businesses with growth potential and 
in which SMFG has a competitive advantage. These businesses will be allocated resources 
as growth drivers. The upper-left “Enhance” quadrant houses businesses in which SMFG 
has a competitive advantage, but has limited growth potential. Resources will be allocated 
to these businesses in a suitable manner, and we will increase profitability by maximizing 
intra-Group synergies and enhancing efficiency on a group-wide basis. The “Build” quad-
rant on the lower-right indicates businesses to which SMFG was a late comer. We will be 
allocating resources to these businesses with the aim of realizing future growth by establish-
ing highly distinctive business models. The lower-left “Transform” quadrant contains our 
domestic retail and wholesale businesses, in which our competitors are domestic regional 
banks and so are subject to domestic capital adequacy standards only. We will be revising 
the business models of the operations in this quadrant.

2017 Annual Report 
 
In regards to our asset portfolio, we will maintain the present volume of risk-weighted 
assets as calculated per current regulatory standards given the increase of such assets due 
to the application of more stringent international financial regulations. At the same time,  
we will improve profitability by rebalancing our asset portfolio to enhance the quality of our 
earnings base. We will keep risk-weighted assets at the same level on an organic basis. We 
will allocate resources to the Seven Core Business Areas, while at the same time reduce 
low-margin assets so that we may improve the overall quality of our portfolio. Furthermore, 
we will engage in the inorganic reduction of risk-weighted assets.

Improving Productivity and Efficiency
Meanwhile, we will boost productivity and the efficiency of operations by promoting digitali-
zation, practicing the Group-based administration of operations, and reorganizing retail 
branches and Group businesses. Measures to curtail expenses such as the consolidation  
of Group companies’ infrastructure will be implemented. We will also move ahead with  
the reorganization of retail branches to improve the productivity of our retail business.  
Furthermore, we aim to enhance efficiency by centralizing shared functions through the 
reorganization of Group businesses, including the integration of SMBC Nikko Securities  
and SMBC Friend Securities. We are targeting annual cost savings of ¥50 billion from these 
measures and ¥100 billion in the medium-term, along with the reduction effect of 4,000 
positions. We will redeploy effected personnel to strategically important business areas in 
order to improve profitability while keeping labor costs under control.

Focus on Our Strengths to Generate Growth
Focus on Seven Core Business Areas
You can see in the diagram below our Seven Core Business Areas. We are already strong in 
the businesses in 1 through 5. We will further reinforce our domestic retail and wholesale 
businesses, where we have a competitive advantage and generate stable earnings. We will 
also selectively implement growth strategies that focus on SMFG’s strengths in our overseas 
operations and global product lines. Businesses 6 and 7 are still small, but have significant 
growth potential. We will therefore seek to determine specific fields within these businesses 
in which we will step up activities to cultivate new strengths  
to drive future growth.

Integration across the Group and Globally to Achieve Sustainable Growth
Management that Maximizes Business Potential
Under the newly introduced group-wide business units and CxO system, we will work to 
maximize the potential of our businesses on both a Group and global basis. Specifically, 
group-wide business units will facilitate the sharing of strategies among Group companies 
and enable us to improve our ability to provide products and services on a group-wide basis 
so that we may accurately respond to the diverse needs of our broad customer base. The 
CxO system, which established positions such as the Chief Strategy Officer, Chief Financial 
Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer, and Chief Information Officer, will allow for the 
sharing of management resources among Group companies, such as the active exchange 
of personnel, and will enable the optimal allocation of resources on a group-wide basis.  
At the same time, we will enhance Group-based planning and management functions  
to control investments in Human Resources (HR) and IT, in addition to carrying-out a  
digitalization strategy. As management controls, we implemented return on equity and risk 
appetite management on a business unit basis. We will also develop more sophisticated 
business management information systems.

adopting new technologies and promoting digitalization in various areas of its business so 
that we may enhance the customer experience, generate new businesses, improve produc-
tivity and efficiency, and upgrade management infrastructure.
  Examples of our efforts on this front include the provision of cutting-edge services for 
retail and corporate customers that utilize digital technologies to enhance the customer 
experience, such as the introduction of paperless transactions. Furthermore, we will gener-
ate new businesses, for example by offering biometric authentication platforms as a 
“Platformer.” We will also introduce public cloud services and advance work style reform in 
order to boost productivity and efficiency. In addition, we will introduce state-of-the-art IT 
infrastructure so that we may accurately track business management data, based on which 
we will work to enhance management practices.

Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG)
In June 2017, SMFG transitioned from a Company with a Board of Corporate Auditors to  
a Company with Three Committees. The purpose of this move was to establish a corporate 
governance system that is aligned with the standards required of a Global Systemically  
Important Financial Institution and to strengthen the supervisory function of the Board  
of Directors.

In addition, we revised the executive compensation systems of SMFG and Sumitomo  
Mitsui Banking Corporation to ensure that management is well aligned with the shareholder 
perspective. As part of this change, we introduced a stock-based compensation system that 
utilizes restricted stock. This new system will strengthen linkage of executive compensation 
with short-term and mid- to long-term performance, and thereby provide proper incentives to 
pursue heightened performance while encouraging executives to hold stock in the Company.

2017 Annual Report 
  Furthermore, SMFG has identified the “Environment,” Next Generation,” and “Community” 
as priority issues to be addressed over the mid- to long-term from a Corporate Social Respon-
sibility (CSR) perspective. Through ongoing initiatives revolving around these issues, we are 
contributing to the development of society. The promotion of diversity and inclusion is also  
a priority for management. We have been actively introducing initiatives to promote female  
participation in the workplace and stepped up hiring of local employees outside of Japan  
in line with the globalization of our business. Through such efforts we seek to develop an 
organization that provides ample opportunities for a diverse work force.

In Closing
The considerable changes we are seeing on a global scale are giving rise to an unparalleled 
paradigm shift. The new Medium-Term Management Plan, “SMFG Next Stage”, was forged 
in the midst of this upheaval. The timing of the plan’s establishment and our decision to 
tackle new challenges are symbolic of our commitment to responding to changing customer 
needs, by further uniting the strengths of the Group. It also represents our recognition of the 
fact that structural reforms are necessary to address the implementation of more stringent 
international financial regulations and transition to an earnings base with higher capital effi-
ciency. I am confident that, when each individual member of the Group comes together and 
combines their respective strengths, we will be able to overcome any obstacle we may face.
  We will, of course, continue to proactively adjust our internal systems and strategies in 
response to external changes. At the same time, however, we will always remain true to the 
transcendental values of the Company. Never losing sight of our core value - Customer 
First, we will exercise the on-the-ground capabilities, spirit of innovation, and speed that 
characterize SMFG’s corporate DNA while further evolving these key characteristics to 
become the financial institution of our customers’ choice. This approach will remain 
unchanged. My mission as Group CEO is to lead SMFG so that we may exceed the goals 
put forth in the new Medium-Term Management Plan and achieve sustainable growth in 
corporate value. We will accomplish this by becoming a top tier global financial group that 
pursues quality in every aspect of our business, is trusted by our customers and society, 
and has an unrivaled footprint in Asia.

I would like to ask for the continued understanding and support of all our stakeholders.

2017 Annual Report 
Message from the Group CFO

Jun Ohta
Group CFO

Director Deputy President and Executive Officer

Review of Fiscal 2016
In fiscal 2016, consolidated gross profit increased by ¥16.8 billion year-on-year, to ¥2,920.7 billion. Although we felt the 
adverse effects of the Bank of Japan’s negative interest rate policy, we were able to offset this downward pressure on revenue 
with higher profits from SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., which benefited from an upturn in the markets.
  General and administrative expenses were up by ¥87.6 billion year-on-year, to ¥1,812.4 billion, and total credit cost rose by 
¥61.6 billion, to ¥164.4 billion. However, the absence of an one-off cost recorded in the previous fiscal year resulted in ordinary 
profit increasing by ¥20.6 billion, to ¥1,005.9 billion.
  Profit attributable to owners of parent increased by ¥59.8 billion year-on-year, to ¥706.5 billion, due in part to the tax benefits 
associated with the implementation of the consolidated corporate-tax system in fiscal 2017.

  For a detailed review of our business results and financials, please refer to page 66.

Financial Targets
Taking into consideration the current business environment, SMFG is working to improve capital, asset, and cost efficiencies in order 
to become a top tier financial group. We have thus established financial targets for return on equity (ROE), overhead ratio, and 
Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio (CET1 ratio), to guide us in our efforts to improve profitability and secure financial soundness.

7–8%

Maintain at least 7% notwithstanding accumulation of capital

18

2017 Annual ReportReturn on Equity
Our target ROE under the Medium-Term Management Plan 
is 7% to 8%, with 7% set as the minimum acceptable level. 
We were able to achieve an ROE in fiscal 2016 of 9.1%, or 
7.8% after the exclusion of one-off increases to profit such 
as the implementation of the consolidated corporate-tax  
system. However, given the increase in risk-weighted assets 
resulting from the implementation of tighter international 
financial regulations, we recognize the necessity of accumu-
lating capital. Furthermore, we estimate SMFG’s bottom-line 
profit to be roughly ¥600 billion when extraordinary factors 
are excluded. Over the next three years, we expect further 
downward pressure to be placed on earnings. Factors  
generating this pressure include the reduced profitability  
of domestic loans due to the Bank of Japan continuing its 
negative interest rate policy, intensifying competition, and 
higher foreign currency funding costs. Nevertheless, we 
remain committed to overcoming such challenges and  
growing bottom-line profit by focusing on our core business 
areas and reforming cost structures.
  We will not allow ourselves to be satisfied by merely  
reaching the target ROE of 7% to 8% given our pursuit of 
improvements in profitability and efficiency. Rather, we will 
ready ourselves to actively pursue upsides when business 
environment turns favorable, perhaps due to the exit of the 
Bank of Japan’s negative interest rate policy or the relaxing 
of international financial regulations, to realize even higher 
levels of ROE.

Overhead Ratio
In fiscal 2019, SMFG aims to have decreased its overhead 
ratio by approximately 1% from the fiscal 2016 figure of 
62.1%. Our overhead ratio rose during the previous 
Medium-Term Management Plan as we made upfront 
investments to pursue growth in top-line profit, while growth 
proved to be sluggish due to the slowdown of emerging  
market economies and the Bank of Japan’s negative interest 
rate policy. We sought to remedy this situation by imple-
menting stricter controls on expenses/costs midway through 
fiscal 2015, and we are seeing the benefits of these efforts. 
In fiscal 2017, our overhead ratio is expected to rise slightly 
due to an increase in revenue-linked variable costs  
stemming from growth in our securities and credit card  
businesses, as well as the amortization of past IT system 
investments. Nonetheless, we will work to reverse this 
upward trend at the earliest possible stage and establish its 
downward trend during the next three years by selectively 
making strategic investments in initiatives that develop  
businesses and improve productivity, for example the  
digitization of operations, while at the same time engaging  
in group-wide efforts to reduce costs by increasing the  
efficiency of our operations, and reorganizing retail branches 
and Group businesses. Following the implementation of 
such initiatives, the next step will be to reduce our overhead 
ratio to approximately 60% at the earliest possible date, in or 
after fiscal 2020.

2017 Annual ReportMessage from the Group CFO

Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio
The target CET1 ratio has been set at 10% based on the 
assumption that Basel III regulation will be finalized in fiscal 
2020. This ratio is calculated by dividing Common Equity 
Tier 1 capital, less net unrealized gains on other securities, 
by risk-weighted assets, less risk-weighted assets associated 
with unrealized gains on stocks.
  The finalization of Basel III reforms is expected to result in 
approximately a 25% increase in SMFG’s risk-weighted 
assets from its current levels. Accordingly, we aim to secure 
a sufficient level of financial soundness one year prior to the 

enactment of finalized Basel III reforms, or, in other words, 
by the final year of the Medium-Term Management Plan. The 
CET1 ratio target of 10% was derived based on the results of 
internal stress tests so that we will still be able to maintain the 
required CET1 ratio of 8% even in a once in a decade stress 
event. Our CET1 ratio calculated as of March 31, 2017 based 
on Post-Basel III reforms basis was 8.3%. Going forward,  
we will seek to secure financial soundness by controlling 
risk-weighted assets, including the inorganic reduction of 
such assets, and by steadily accumulating profits.

2017 Annual ReportSecuring Financial Soundness
As I mentioned earlier, we are targeting a CET1 ratio of 
approximately 10% based on the anticipated final impact of 
tightened international financial regulations. We expect to 
achieve the targeted figure through the disciplined reform of 
our business and asset portfolios by which we will maintain 
the present amount of risk-weighted assets as calculated  
per current regulatory standards, while at the same time  
we will rebalance our assets to a high margin portfolio and 
accumulate profits.
  We will continue to reduce our strategic shareholdings  
to comply with Japan’s Corporate Governance Code, in  
addition to mitigating the negative impact of stock price  
fluctuations on our capital and the application of tighter 
international financial regulations.

Enhancing Shareholder Returns
In order to enhance shareholder returns we have adopted a 
progressive dividend policy, by which I mean that there will 
be no reduction in dividends and will either maintain or 
increase dividends and will target a payout ratio of 40%. To 
date, we have continued to increase the dividend per share 

in a stable manner. Based on our understanding that we 
have established a business foundation that will allow us to 
consistently secure bottom-line profit of ¥600 billion; we 
have decided to further increase the distribution of profits to 
shareholders through dividends. Our first step will be to 
increase dividends for fiscal 2017 with a forecast of ¥160 
per share, a ¥10 increase year-on-year.
  Our policy for share buybacks will be determined after the 
finalization of Basel III reforms.

Investing for Growth
We have set our investment criteria in line with the Core  
Policies of Discipline and Focus set out in the Medium-Term 
Management Plan. Specifically, (a) investments must be 
consistent with SMFG’s strategies, (b) with an ROE of over 
8% (after synergies and excluding amortization of goodwill), 
and (c) risk manageable.

  We look forward to receiving your continued support as we 
will devote our utmost efforts to realize sustainable growth in 
shareholder value.

Priority Strategies

Enhance Wealth Management Business through  
Bank-Securities Integration
We will further evolve the bank-securities retail integration strategy 

implemented through coordination between SMBC and SMBC Nikko 

Securities by leveraging the unique strengths of both companies. In 

order to address our customers’ wealth management needs, we will 

promote medium-to-long term diversified investment opportunities  

to our customers as our basic approach through the bank- securities 

integration.

Transform Business Model through Digitalization  
and Group Integration
We will promote the digitalization in the services we provide to  

our customers and our business operation to become the most 

advanced digital bank in Japan while also being regarded as  

an innovative bank on a global basis. At the same time, Group  

integration will be pursued in various fields, such as in the settle-

ment service field through collaboration leveraging the strengths  

of SMBC, Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company, and Cedyna.

Reform of Cost Structures
At SMBC branches, we are promoting three reforms at once, 

“changing the way we offer services to our customers,” “changing 

the administration process,” and “changing the concept of 

branches.” The scope of these reforms will be expanded to all 

branches over the next three years to enable us to reduce costs 

while providing customers with 

convenient and high-quality 

services.

SMFG has appointed a Chief Digital Innovation Officer (CDIO) to implement an IT strategy that incorporates  

various technologies with four focuses: “enhancing the customer experience,” “generating new businesses,”  

“improving productivity and efficiency,” and “upgrading management infrastructure.”

By utilizing the latest digital technologies, SMFG will supply customers with convenient and easy-to-use services  
while also creating unparalleled experiences for customers and new business opportunities through the provision  
of advanced services and platforms.

Support Provision of Funds to Mid-Sized  
Corporations and SMEs
In April 2014, SMBC established its Area Main Offices to 
more fully address the wholesale-retail integral needs of 
mid-sized corporations and SME clients, including the 
aspect of business succession. Area Main Offices enable us 
to offer integrated corporate and personal consulting and 
draw on SMFG company networks to provide specialist  
services. In addition to providing business loans, SMFG 
companies offer tailored support, including consultation  
on overseas business development, business matching, 
business succession, and internal company reforms,  
alongside consultation on personal asset management, 
loans, inheritance, and asset succession.

Collaboration with Local Credit Guarantee 
Corporations
SMBC offers Business Select Loans, a loan service that 
offers unsecured and unguaranteed financing, and also  
provides jointly guaranteed loans through collaboration with 
local credit guarantee corporations, enabling it to meet a 
diverse range of funding needs.
  Going forward, we will continue offering services to fund 
and support the management of the mid-sized corporations 
and SMEs that form the backbone of the Japanese economy.

Involvement in Regional Stimulus
Regional stimulus is a key theme for the Japanese govern-
ment. Related “regional comprehensive strategy” plans 
drawn up by local government entities are moving to their 
implementation stage.

It is becoming important for regions to exercise their  
comprehensive strength in advancing stimulus measures. 
There are thus high expectations for the contributions that 
financial institutions can make by leveraging their wide-
reaching information networks.
  SMFG has entered into cooperation agreements with local 
government entities as part of its efforts to assist in local 
industrial development. Based on these agreements, we are 
making contributions to regional stimulus from various angles 
based on the specific issues and needs of individual local  
government entities across Japan.
  We will continue to work with 
local government entities and 
regional financial institutions 
across Japan, drawing on  
the SMFG network to contribute 
to local economies through  
regional stimulus.

Corporate Governance

Our Basic Position on Corporate Governance
We are working to improve the effectiveness of corporate 
governance as we consider the strengthening and enhance-
ment of corporate governance to be one of our top priorities 
in realizing “Our mission.” Further, SMFG has established  
its “SMFG Corporate Governance Guideline” as its action 
guidelines to be referred to for corporate governance by 
Group officers and employees.

  Please follow the link below for the SMFG Corporate  

Governance Guideline.

http://www.smfg.co.jp/english/aboutus/pdf/cg_guideline_e.pdf

SMFG’s Corporate Governance System
SMFG transitioned to a company with three statutory  
committees from a company with a board of corporate  
auditors, following approval at our ordinary general meeting 
of shareholders held on June 29, 2017. The following  
corporate governance system was adopted as a result.

Board of Directors
The Board of Directors delegates a large portion of decisions 
on the execution of the operations to corporate executive 
officers, excluding those issues legally required to be 
decided by the Board of Directors, thereby enabling it to 
better focus on supervising the exercise of duties by execu-
tive officers and directors. The chairman of SMFG, who does 

Transition to a Company with Three Statutory Committees

SMFG had previously employed a board of corporate auditors governance system. In order to further enhance our  
solid corporate governance system, we transitioned to a company with three statutory committees, which is globally  
recognized and is aligned with international banking regulations and supervision, following approval at our ordinary  
general meeting of shareholders held on June 29, 2017.

chairman of the Board of Directors, and ten of the 17 direc-
tors also do not have business execution responsibilities at 
SMFG or its subsidiaries, with seven of these 10 directors 
being outside directors (as of June 29, 2017). This member-
ship ensures an objective stance toward supervising the 
exercise of duties by executive officers and directors.

Management Committee
The Management Committee is set up under the Board to 
serve as the top decision-making body. The Management 
Committee is chaired by the President of SMFG with other 
members including executive officers and other officers des-
ignated by the president. The President of SMFG considers 
important matters relating to the execution of business in 
accordance with the basic policies set by the board of directors 
and based on discussions held by the committee members.

Internal Committee Composition

Internal Committees
The Board of Directors has established four internal  
committees; the Nominating Committee, the Compensation 
Committee, and the Audit Committee are required by the 
Companies Act of Japan whereas the Risk Committee has 
been established voluntarily. All internal committees consist 
of a majority of outside directors, except the Risk Committee 
in which the majority comprises outside directors and  
outside experts, and are thus able to engage in objective 
discussions from a perspective that is divorced from  
business execution.
  The Nominating Committee, the Compensation  
Committee, and the Audit Committee are also chaired by 
outside directors, adding an extra degree of transparency  
in discussions.

Q

What kinds of discussions were held for the new 
Medium-Term Management Plan? Also, what are 
your expectations for the plan?

In SMFG’s history of roughly 15 years, the new Medium-
Term Management Plan will come to represent an important 
turning point because it will be the first Medium-Term  
Management Plan for the “new SMFG” after introducing  
the group-wide business units.
  When discussing about the group-wide business units,  
we started from very fundamental questions such as “why 
we need to establish the new system now?” and each direc-
tor actively exchanged opinions. Even before SMFG 
implemented the system, companies within the Group had 
been actively cooperating with each other including the bank 
and securities companies. The introduction of group-wide 
business units will strengthen the ties between the Group 
companies and allow us to make proposals to our customers 
more quickly and broadly to meet their diverse needs. This 
means that SMFG can take advantage of more business 
opportunities, so I have expectations of growth for SMFG.
  We also discussed in detail about the transformation of 
business portfolio by visualizing where our strengths lie and 

in what areas we want to grow. As an executive of a U.S. 
based company, I feel that holding a diverse portfolio while 
carefully selecting the focus of initiatives is a powerful asset 
to meet very wide range of customers’ needs.
  A challenge SMFG faces under the new Medium-Term 
Management Plan is to generate group-wide synergies.  
I am convinced that these synergies are vital to the success 
of SMFG in the next stage and would like to support this 
development. 

Q

What do you keep in mind when you perform your 
duties as an outside director?

At first, I always voice my views at the board meetings from 
the perspectives of key stakeholders. Shareholder perspec-
tives are the important ones to represent, and in addition,  
I try to bring the perspectives from the individual users of 
financial services, and also from the corporate customers.  
I also try to bring the global perspectives, as the global  
business situations and standards keep raising the bar for 
the financial services.
  Being a CEO of the company, I know that internal discus-
sions can easily lose the broader perspectives no matter 

48

2017 Annual Report 
what we make efforts. That's why outside directors can  
bring the value to the discussion table, by asking the right 
questions – sometimes very simple and fundamental ques-
tions. Even though the end result could be the same, the 
important thing is that we have enough discussions from the 
broader perspectives, and confirm our visions and strategies 
make sense to our business and to our stakeholders. We 
never hesitated to ask, and we will never.
  Second is to continue learning. When I first assumed the 
position of outside director, my image towards SMFG was 
very limited. I had a strong image of SMFG being a “Bank” 
and being “domestic”. And with this limited view, I would not 
have been able to fulfill my duties as an outside director. By 
given the opportunity to talk to the top management of the 
Group companies and the heads of business units, I was 
able to learn that SMFG is operating in an incredibly broad 
range of fields on a global basis. I am thus very grateful that 
everyone at SMFG has been very open and providing infor-
mation to me. Furthermore, as an individual, I try to hold a 
customer’s perspective, by trying out SMFG’s services and 
smartphone applications.

In June 2017, SMFG transformed into a Company with 
Three Committees from a Company with a Board of Corpo-
rate Auditors. This move did not represent a significant 
change because SMFG was already managed under a gov-
ernance framework with discretionary internal committees 
and independent outside directors. However, as the new 
framework separates functions of “business execution” and 
“supervision” more clearly, outside directors are now 
expected to discuss decisions related to business execution 
from a broader and more overarching perspective. There-
fore, I feel a renewed commitment to my role, recognizing 
that I need to deepen my own insight.

Q

What do you think will be most important to increase 
the corporate value of SMFG going forward? 

I believe human resources are the origins of SMFG’s  
corporate value. Of course, human resources are also 
important in the manufacturing industry. However, the  
more I learn about the financial industry, including the very 
strict regulations it faces and the difficultly in developing 
prominent innovation, the more it became apparent that 
“cultivating human resources” is the key to differentiation.  
I believe it is crucial that our customers feel that they  

worked with highly competent people and would want to 
work with them again.

In my more than two years of experience as an outside 

director at SMFG, I have learned that the Group houses 
countless ambitious employees, who are sensible, intelligent 
and have the desire to contribute to society. At the same 
time, I have heard from global companies giving praise to 
SMFG for its speed and superior teamwork. Building upon 
these strengths to steadily create results from both financial 
and non-financial perspectives will, in the end, enable  
SMFG to grow profits and contribute to society. I believe  
this process will also improve SMFG’s corporate value  
and encourage shareholders to become long-term fans  
of the Group.
  Therefore, as an outside director, I would like to ensure 
SMFG provides a working environment that motivates its 
employees and an environment where they can fully exer-
cise their talents and generate various ideas, by offering 
advice when necessary. 

Support System for Outside Directors

SMFG views outside directors as representatives of 
various stakeholders including shareholders, and 
assign individuals that has a broad-ranging insight  
and plentiful experience from their endeavors in  
various fields.
  SMFG expects outside directors to offer advice based 
on their insight that contributes to the sustainable 
growth and the increase of corporate value of SMFG. 
Outside directors are regularly provided with opportuni-
ties to learn from external lecturers and share views 
with officers to ensure that they are able to fulfill their 
role and carry out their duties in an effective manner.
In addition, study sessions are held for new outside 
directors on subjects such as company profile, business 
plans and medium-term management plan, corporate 
governance, and overview of major business units.

Risk Management

Our Basic Position
Major changes in the business environment for financial 
institutions, including economic, financial, and regulatory 
conditions, have increased the importance of promoting 
appropriate risk-taking practices at SMFG—a diversified 
financial services company—as it develops its businesses 
and pursues its management and financial targets. We need 
to be accurate in our perception of the business environment 
and risk and rigorous in our risk analysis and management.
  SMFG conducts business operations based on its over-
arching Risk Appetite Framework (RAF).

SMFG Risk Appetite Framework
The SMFG Group introduced RAF to ensure that risk and 
return levels are appropriate. RAF clarifies the types and 
levels of risk that we are willing to take on or are prepared to 
tolerate in order to grow profits based on an accurate under-
standing of the operating environment and the inherent risks 
(risk appetite). RAF also contains provisions for controlling 
group-wide risk. Accordingly, RAF provides a central pillar of 
business management alongside business strategy.
  Our basic position and risk appetite specifics are set out in 
an internal document for group-wide use.

Risk Appetite
At SMFG, we have a Risk Appetite Statement that provides  
a qualitative explanation of our approach to risk taking  
and risk management for various risk categories. We also 
have quantitative Risk Appetite Measures that function as 
benchmarks for risks that we are considering taking and  
for risk/return.
  As an illustration, for the soundness category, our Risk 
Appetite Statement has “maintain a sufficient level of capital 
to support sustainable growth” as the overall policy. It also 
includes specific policies for the fiscal year in question 
based on our view of the environment and risk. The  
common equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio, the leverage ratio,  
and several other indicators have been established as  
Risk Appetite Measures.

Individual risk appetites have been established for specific 

business units or strategies as necessary based on the  
overall risk appetite of SMFG.

Risk Appetite Measures and understanding the current risk situation. 
Monitoring is conducted based on these measures.

*2 Conduct Risk Management

SMFG positions conduct risk as one category of risk appetite. Conduct 
risk is the risk that our conduct negatively affects customers, market 
integrity, or effective competition. This risk is managed by implementing 
preventive measures through RAF.

2017 Annual Report 
 
 
 
 
Operation of Risk Appetite Framework
The process of setting risk appetite for each fiscal year 
begins with discussions and the sharing of information on 
the current and future business environment and risks by 
the Management Committee and the Board of Directors. 
Risks that threaten to severely impact management are 
identified as Top Risks. Risk appetite is then decided on  
the basis of risk analyses (stress testing) that illustrate the 
impact if a risk should be realized. Business strategies and 
policies for the conduct of business are drawn up on the 
basis of risk appetite decisions.
  The outlooks for the operating environment and risks, 
including Top Risks, are continuously updated over the 
course of the fiscal year’s business and the risk appetite 
situation is monitored regularly through the medium of  
Risk Appetite Measures and other controls. Risk Appetite 
Measures and business strategies are revised as necessary.
  Three risk management levels are set for Risk Appetite 
Measures, which are monitored accordingly.

Comprehensive Risk Management
As shown in the table below, the risks needing to be man-
aged on a group-wide basis have been defined as (1) credit 
risk, (2) market risk, (3) liquidity risk, and (4) operational 
risk. Risks are managed based on their characteristics.

In addition, necessary guidance is provided to Group  
companies in identifying categories of risk they need to 
address in their particular businesses. These risk categories 
are continuously reviewed and new ones may be added in 
response to changes in the operating environment.
  Thorough assessments of the operating environment  
and risks, including Top Risks, are carried out to ensure 
effective operation of RAF, after which risks are managed 
systematically through frameworks for risk analysis via stress 
testing and risk capital management.

Top Risks
SMFG identifies those risks that threaten to significantly 
impact management as Top Risks.
  The selection of Top Risks involves comprehensive 
screening of risk factors, evaluation of each risk scenario’s 
possibility of occurrence and potential impact on manage-
ment, and discussion by the Risk Management Committee 
and the Management Committee. Top Risks are utilized to 
enhance risk management by being incorporated into dis-
cussions of RAF and the formulation of business strategies 
and into the creation of risk scenarios for stress testing.

  Please see page 77 for Top Risks of SMFG.

Risk Management Categories

Risk Management Framework

Risk Categories

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the possibility of a loss arising from a credit event, such as deterioration in the financial condition  
of a borrower, that causes an asset (including off-balance sheet transactions) to lose value or become worthless.

Risk Capital-Based Management

Market Risk

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.

Operational Risk

Operational risk is the possibility of losses arising from inadequate or failed internal processes, people,  
and systems or from external events.

ALM

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is defined as 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.

seeking to analyze and comprehend the impact on SMFG’s 
businesses of changes in economic or market conditions.

In our stress testing, we formulate multiple risk scenarios 

based on the aforementioned Top Risks, discussions with 
experts and related departments, and macroeconomic  
indicators such as GDP, stock prices, interest rates, and  
foreign exchange rates.
  When developing business strategies, we formulate  
scenarios assuming stressed business environments such  
as serious economic recessions and market disruption to 
assess risk-taking capabilities at SMFG and verify whether 
adequate soundness can be maintained under stress.

In addition, SMFG conducts detailed stress testing of 
credit risk, market risk, and liquidity risk, based on which  
it develops and revises strategies for risk taking.

Risk Capital Management
In managing credit risk, market risk, and operational risk 
affecting the entire Group, we apply a uniform standard,  
risk capital*1 based on value at risk (VaR),*2 for use in  
monitoring and managing risks. This standard is applied 
while taking into account the characteristics of each risk and 
of the businesses of Group companies. Specific risk capital 
measures include setting upper limits for risk exposure 
based on group-wide and business unit risk appetite and 
group-wide management constitution. Each business unit 
operates business operation within that limit. Through these 
precautions, we practice management that maintains an 
appropriate balance between risks and returns based on a 
comprehensive perspective and secure sufficient financial 
soundness.

*1 Risk capital: The amount of capital required to cover the theoretical maximum 

potential loss arising from risks of business operations.

*2 VaR: The maximum loss that can be expected to occur with a certain degree of 
probability when holding a financial asset portfolio for a given amount of time.

Stress Testing Process

(1) Scenario Design

compiling information on SMFG’s Top Risks and the views of related departments  

Scenarios are designed by the Corporate Risk Management Department after  

on such factors as future global trends.

(2) Scenario Finalization

Scenarios are revised as necessary based on the outcome of discussions between 

specialists and related departments.

(3) Calculation of Impact

The scenario’s impact on each financial item is estimated for analysis of the impact 

on such indicators as the CET1.

(4)  Confirmation by the  

Management Committee

At the Management Committee, business strategies are examined based on analyses 

of risk impact amounts and then verified from the perspective of capital adequacy.

SMFG’s Risk Management System
Top management plays an active role in the risk manage-
ment process out of recognition for the importance of risk 
management. The group-wide basic policies for risk man-
agement are determined by the Management Committee 
before being authorized by the Board of Directors.

In line with these basic policies for risk management, the 
functions for managing major risks are consolidated within 
the Risk Management Unit, which is independent from  
business units, and we seek to refine our risk management 
system through such means as enhancing comprehensive 
reviews of each risk category. In addition, the Internal Audit 
Unit conducts internal audits on the status of risk manage-
ment to verify that risk is appropriately managed.
  Risk management systems are in place at individual Group 
companies that have been established based on the charac-
teristics of their particular businesses and in accordance 
with the basic policies. Furthermore, SMFG is sharing infor-
mation on group-wide risk management and strengthening 
related systems through the Group CRO Committee, which 
consists of the Group CRO and risk management representa-
tives from strategically important Group companies.

SMFG’s Risk Management System

Risk Committee
The Risk Committee is an internal committee of the Board  
of Directors, composed of outside directors as well as 
experts from inside and outside of the Company who  
possess specialized insight.
  The Risk Committee meets regularly to discuss risk  
management topics, including Top Risks and RAF, from a 
specialist viewpoint. The results are reported to the Board  
of Directors as necessary.

Risk Management Committee
Chaired by the Group CRO and membered by representa-
tives from risk management divisions and business units, 
the Risk Management Committee is tasked with compiling 
and sharing information related to group-wide risk manage-
ment and discussing this information as necessary.

Compliance

Basic Compliance Policies
Management positions the strengthening of compliance as a 
key issue in enabling SMFG to fulfill its public mission and 
social responsibilities as a global financial group. We are 
increasing our efforts to ensure that compliance policies are 
followed properly as we aim to become a truly outstanding 
global group.

Compliance Management
SMFG seeks to maintain a compliance system that provides 
appropriate instructions, guidance, and monitoring for  
compliance to ensure sound and proper business operations 
across the Group. Measures have been put in place to pre-
vent misconduct and quickly detect inappropriate activities 
that have occurred to implement corrective measures.
  As the holding company, SMFG has established the  
Compliance Committee, which is chaired by the Group Chief 
Compliance Officer (Group CCO) responsible for overseeing 
matters related to compliance. This committee comprehen-
sively examines and discusses SMFG’s various work 
processes from the perspective of compliance.

In addition, SMFG formulated the Group Compliance  
Program to provide a concrete action plan for practicing 
compliance on a group-wide level. SMBC and other Group 
companies develop their own compliance programs based 
on the Group program and take other steps to effectively 
install compliance frameworks.

  SMFG discusses and receives reports on compliance-
related matters from Group companies, providing 
suggestions and guidance as necessary to ensure  
compliance throughout the Group.

Response to Anti-social Forces
SMFG has set down a basic policy stipulating that all Group 
companies must unite in establishing and maintaining a 
system that ensures that the Group allows no relationship 
whatsoever with anti-social forces or related individuals.
  Specifically, the Group strives to ensure that no business 
transactions are made with anti-social forces or individuals. 
All contractual documents or terms and conditions must 
include contracts and terms of transactions clauses regarding 
the exclusion of anti-social forces from any business relation-
ship, and in the event that it is discovered subsequent to  
the commencement of a deal or trading relationship that  
the opposite party belongs to or is affiliated with an anti-
social force, we undertake appropriate remedial action by 
contacting an outside institution specializing in such matters.

Basic Policy for Anti-Social Forces
1.  Completely sever any connections or relations with  

anti-social forces.

2.  Repudiate any unjustifiable claims, and do not engage  

in any “backroom” deals whatsoever.  
Further, promptly take legal actions as necessary.

3.  Appropriately respond to any antisocial forces  
as an organization by cooperating with outside  
professional agencies.

Internal Audit System

Overview of the Group’s Internal Audit System
At SMFG, the holding company, the Audit Department has 
been established as an internal auditing division that is  
positioned under the Audit Committee and is independent 
from business units and compliance and risk management 
divisions. In addition, the chief audit executive oversees 
SMFG’s group-wide auditing activities.
  Based on the Group Internal Audit Charter and the Basic 
Audit Policy and Plan formulated by the Audit Committee 
and the Board of Directors, the Audit Division verifies the 
appropriateness and effectiveness of internal control sys-
tems, including those elements related to compliance and 
risk management. This duty is accomplished through inter-
nal audits of Company divisions and Group companies 
aimed at ensuring the appropriateness of Group operations 
and the soundness of assets.

In addition, the appropriateness and effectiveness of inter-
nal control systems at Group companies are verified through 
oversight of internal audit functions at these companies and 
through ongoing monitoring of the status of internal audit 
implementation. Major audit findings are regularly reported 
to the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors, and the 
Group Management Committee. Also, the department is 
working to strengthen cooperation with accounting auditors 
through frequent exchanges information for appropriate 
audit practices

Internal Audit System

Enhancement of the Quality and Effectiveness of 
Internal Audit
The SMFG Audit Department has adopted auditing methods 
in accordance with the standards of the Institute of Internal 
Auditors (IIA)*. The department conducts risk-based audits 
and extends the same approach to Group companies as well.
It seeks to enhance the expertise of internal auditors in 
Group companies as it gathers up-to-date information on 
internal audit offers that information to Group companies, 
organizes training programs, and promotes the obtaining  
of international certification as an auditor.
  Moreover, the Audit Department seeks to enhance  
group-wide audit processes through quality assessments of 
internal audits based on the IIA standards and on exemplary 
initiatives by G-SIFIs.

*  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 the status of professionalism of internal auditing staff. Its main activity is to 
hold examinations and approve licenses for Certified Internal Auditor (CIA), 
which is an internationally recognized qualification in both theoretical and 
practical knowledge for internal auditor.

SMFG Group companies are united in their efforts for  
customer satisfaction (CS) and quality improvement in line 
with “Our Mission,” which states “We grow and prosper 
together with our customers, by providing services of

CS and Quality Improvement System
The Group CS Committee at holding company SMFG has 
been meeting periodically to verify and exchange information 
regarding feedback from customers and measures for pro-
moting CS from the perspective of facilitating cooperation 
across the entire Group.

In fiscal 2017, SMFG established the CS Improvement  
Subcommittee as well as the CS Improvement Committee  
to function alongside the aforementioned Group CS  
Committee from the perspective of advancing initiatives  
and reinforcing management systems related to customer-
oriented business conduct. External experts are invited  
to serve as advisors at meetings of the CS Improvement  
subcommittee, where information is exchanged on how  
to fully entrench a customer- oriented mind-set.

Customer-Oriented Business Initiative

Based on the Principles for Customer-Oriented Business 
Conduct released by the Financial Services Agency on 
March 30, 2017, SMFG has revised “Our Commitment to 
Fiduciary Duties” and formulated its Basic Policy for Cus-
tomer-Orientated Business Conduct.

in collaboration with a world-leading business school. We also  

support employees’ language trainings to encourage active  

communications across borders.

In addition, we promote cross-border transfers and secondment of 

employees around the world, for both business and training purposes. 

Through these initiatives, there are increasing number of overseas 

hired employees who have worked in Japan, contributing to globalize 

our domestic offices.

When we hire employees with diverse backgrounds, we cannot

the centerpiece of our efforts to promote diversity. Through these 

reforms, we will drastically revise operating processes, allow  

employees flexibility with regard to working locations and times,  

and take steps to prevent excessive overtime.

  As one initiative to promote working style reforms, SMBC began 

presenting working style reform awards to head office divisions in

When part-time employees are included, SMFG has around 

100,000 employees positioned in roughly 40 countries 

around the world. The SMFG Group comprises various  

companies, and each company is very unique. In the same 

manner, our employees are all unique, with differing genders, 

ages, nationalities, and values. These diverse human 

resources are our greatest asset.

  Creating new value is imperative to survival in the highly 

volatile operating environment. As we strive to create such 

value, we must begin by aligning our diverse employees,  

who come from various backgrounds, along the same vector 

and having them share fresh and innovative ideas that are 

unfettered by tradition.

It is not easy to respect diversity while also fostering a sense 

of team unity. SMFG works to accomplish this through its Five 

Values, which put forth a set of values and action guidelines 

shared by all employees. If every employee remains constantly 

aware of the fact that they are a member of SMFG and roots 

their individuality in the Five Values, this diversity will become 

a wellspring of power for the Group. By uniting our diverse 

team of employees in this manner, we aim to ensure that 

SMFG continues to be a strong company on into the future.

Three Pillars of the Group’s Activities
The three pillars of our environmental action plan are: 
“Reduction of impacts on environment,” “Management  
of environmental risks,” and “Promotion of environmental 
businesses.” We have set environmental objectives for each 
environmental activity and follow the procedures of Plan,  
Do, Check, and Act (PDCA) in conducting such activities.

Reducing Environmental Impact
SMFG sets objectives for reducing electricity and other 
energy consumption each year and seeks to be proactive in 
reaching its goals. In addition, we began receiving third-party 
verifications for our environmental data from fiscal 2016. 
Initiatives to reduce impacts on the environment are being 
advanced across the Group. For example, SMBC makes 
bank passbooks viewable online and provides electronic loan 
documents, while Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company offers 
billing statements in electronic format. Furthermore, SMBC’s 
Ginza Branch was reopened 
inside the GINZA SIX com-
mercial complex in April 2017 
as a new, next-generation 
branch allowing for all  
procedures to be performed 
in a paperless manner.

Management of Environmental Risks
SMBC’s Credit Policy, which sets out universal and basic 
philosophies, guidelines, and rules for credit operations, 
makes explicit reference to environmental risk in credit 
assessment. In addition, in its environmental and risk 
assessment, SMBC follows the Equator Principles, which 
provide private-sector financial institutions a framework  
for environmental and social 
risk in financing large-scale 
development projects.

Promoting Environmental Businesses
SMFG positions environmental businesses as a means to 
preserve and improve the global environment through its 
core business operations. Examples include support activi-
ties carried out through coordination between the different 
business models of each Group companies, such as support 
for environmental infrastructure improvement projects and 
renewable energy projects in emerging countries. In addi-
tion, SMFG promotes environmental financing through the 
issuance of green bonds and the sales of eco funds.  
We are also providing information to customers via various 
means, such as the SAFE 
environmental magazine 
and our participation in the 
Eco-Pro (International Exhi-
bition on Environment and 
Energy) exhibition.

Consolidated net business profit
Consolidated gross profit increased by ¥16.8 billion year-on-
year to ¥2,920.7 billion. The primary reasons were an 
increase in profit of SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. by regarding 
as rallies in the market conditions and profit contribution of 
SMFL Capital Company, Limited which has been included in 
the scope of consolidation from fiscal 2016, despite of an 
impact of negative interest rates. 
  General and administrative expenses increased by ¥87.6 
billion year-on-year to ¥1,812.4 billion, due to ongoing invest-
ments to enhance top-line profit growth and the effects from 
system investments in the past years, despite of strengthen-
ing of cost control in the entire group. Equity in gains (losses) 
of affiliates increased by ¥60.7 billion year-on-year to ¥24.6 
billion. This was mainly because an impairment loss on 
goodwill was recognized for BTPN in the previous fiscal  
year, which is not recognized in this fiscal year.
  As a result, consolidated net business profit decreased by 
¥10.1 billion year-on-year to ¥1,132.9 billion.

Credit cost
Total credit cost increased by ¥61.6 billion year-on-year to 
¥164.4 billion. This was mainly due to additional reserves for 
possible loan losses with worsened business results of 
SMBC’s obligor with large exposure.

Gains (losses) on stocks
Gains (losses) on stocks decreased by ¥14.0 billion year-on-
year to ¥55.0 billion.

Ordinary profit
In addition to the above items, Others increased by ¥106.2 
billion, resulting in losses of ¥17.6 billion. This was mainly 
due to provision for reserve for losses on interest repayment 
in the previous fiscal year, which is not recognized in this 
fiscal year and for other reasons. As a result, Ordinary profit 
increased by ¥20.6 billion year-on-year to ¥1,005.9 billion.

Profit attributable to owners of parent
Profit attributable to owners of parent increased by ¥59.8 
billion year-on-year to ¥706.5 billion due to an increase in 
deferred tax assets recoverable in the future with application 
of the consolidated corporate-tax system from fiscal year 
ending March 31, 2018 (fiscal 2017).

gated to maintain even higher capital ratios based on their bucket 

1. Comprehensive Risk Management
SMFG takes a comprehensive and systematic approach to risk 

management, with risk analysis by stress testing and risk capital 

management following the ascertainment of environment and risk 

(1.0% to 3.5% higher than the standard obligation). As of March 

31, 2017, SMFG was designated as a bucket 1 G-SIB and was 

obligated to achieve a phased increase in its capital ratio to raise 

it above the standard obligation by the lowest amount required of 

views, including Top Risks (see page 53).

G-SIBs (1.0%). 

Top Risks
The major Top Risks recognized by SMFG and examples of the 

scenarios that could potentially result from these risks are listed in 

the table below (see page 53 for information on methods of utilizing 

Top Risks).

2. Risk Management System
At SMFG, top management plays an active role in the risk manage-

ment process out of recognition for the importance of risk manage-

ment. The group-wide basic policies for risk management are to be 

determined by the Management Committee before being authorized 

by the Board of Directors. In addition, SMFG has appointed the 

Group CRO that is tasked with promoting appropriate risk manage-

ment by developing an understanding of and managing risks in an 

integrated manner on a group-wide basis.

Group companies have established risk management systems 

based on their business characteristics (see page 55).

In addition, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision is 

engaged in ongoing discussions regarding the revision of risk asset 

calculation  methods  as  well  as  the  revision  of  minimum  capital 

levels (so-called “capital floors”) and other capital ratio regulations. 

Furthermore, unique financial regulations are being introduced in major 

countries and regions. In light of these developments, SMFG has 

identified trends in international financial regulations as one of its Top 

Risks. We will thus monitor the direction of these discussions, mea-

sure the potential impact on our operations, and respond accordingly.

Appropriate revisions to regulations for financial institutions can 

contribute to stability in the financial system, but excessive regu-

lation can result in constraints on the intermediary function of the 

institutions, which in turn can adversely impact the real economy. 

SMFG is therefore pursuing a cooperative approach with the relevant 

authorities and other financial institutions, making its views known to 

contribute to the development of appropriate regulatory frameworks.

Top Risks

Global political and economic trends

Geopolitical risks faced around the world 
(including terrorism)
Monetary policy and economic trends in Japan Deterioration of financial institutions’ earnings resulting from further application of negative interest rate policies by the Bank of 

Example Risk Scenarios
Slowdown in the global economy resulting from increased opaqueness in the U.S. or European political climates, stagnancy in 
the economies of China or emerging countries, sharp resource price movements, etc. 
Slowdown in the economies of specific countries resulting from the increased geopolitical risks associated with the Korean 
peninsula, domestic or overseas acts of terrorism, etc.

Trends in international financial regulations

Lack of reliability in relation to foreign currency 
procurement
Legal or compliance-related incidents

Japan; economic slowdown or increased financial instability in Japan resulting from yen appreciation, sluggish foreign 
demand, poor market conditions, etc.
Higher capital or liquidity requirements due to the institution of stricter international financial regulations; implementation and 
enforcement of unique or stricter regulations in principal countries
Lack of reliability or efficiency with regard to foreign currency procurement due to operating environment changes including 
rising foreign currency procurement costs or cash outflows at major institutions holding foreign currency deposits
Damage to reputation due to incurring government penalties, fines, other sanctions as a result of incidents stemming from 
misconduct, etc.

Difficulty in securing human resources to work in strategic or specialized fields or in maintaining a sufficient base of diverse 
employees

Deterioration of conditions at major borrowers Weakening of the Company’s financial base as a result of deterioration of conditions at major borrowers
Lack of human resources necessary for 
enacting strategies (lack of personnel numbers, 
individuals with specialized skills, etc.)
Ceased operation of information systems  
due to cyber attacks
Changes in competitive climate due to 
emergence of FinTech or other new 
technologies
Earthquakes and other natural disasters

Difficulty in maintaining business continuity due to ceased operation or destruction of information systems following cyber 
attacks, etc.
Decreased profitability due to significant erosion of the Company’s market share or necessity of incurring costs that place 
downward pressure on performance as a result of intensified competition following entry into the financial industry by 
companies from other industries
Halting of operations of business partners as a result of supply chain disruptions, system failures, etc.
Adverse impacts on the Company’s profits from store closures, system failures, etc.

Note: The above is only a portion of the risks recognized by SMFG. It is possible that the materialization of risks other than those listed above could have a significant impact on the Company’s management.

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

by SMFG to assess and manage credit risk on a group-wide basis 

and further raise the level of accuracy and comprehensiveness of 

group-wide credit risk management. Each Group company must 

comprehensively manage credit risk according to the nature of its 

business, and assess and manage credit risk of individual loans and 

credit portfolios quantitatively and using consistent standards.

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 purposes of credit risk management is to keep credit risk 

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

soundness of group-wide assets, and to ensure returns commen-

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

returns on capital and assets.

guidelines, and credit application guidelines, and also manages 

NPLs and performs other aspects of credit portfolio management. 

The  department  also  cooperates  with  the  Corporate  Risk 

Management Department in quantifying credit risk (risk capital and 

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

Further, the Credit Portfolio Management Department within the 

Credit & Investment Planning Department has been strengthening 

its active portfolio management function for stable credit portfolios 

mainly through credit derivatives and the sales of loans.

The credit departments within each business unit conduct credit 

risk management, along with the branches, for loans handled by 

their units and manage their units’ portfolios. The credit approval 

authority is determined based on the credit amount and internal 

grades, while credit departments focus on the analysis and manage-

ment of customers and transactions with relatively high credit risk.

The Credit Administration Department is responsible for han-

dling NPLs of borrowers classified as potentially bankrupt or lower, 

and draws up plans for their workouts, including write-offs. It works 

to efficiently reduce the amount of NPLs through Group company 

SMBC Servicer Co., Ltd., which engages in related services, and by 

such means as the sell-off of claims.

Through industrial and sector-specific surveys and studies of 

individual companies, the Corporate Research Department works to 

form an accurate idea of the circumstances of borrower companies 

and quickly identify those with potentially troubled credit positions 

as well as promising growth companies.

3. Credit Risk Management Methods

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

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

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

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

risk for control purposes.

(a) Internal Rating System

There is an internal rating system for each asset control category 

established according to portfolio characteristics. For example, 

credits to corporates are assigned an “obligor grade,” which indi-

cates the borrower’s creditworthiness, and/or “facility grade,” which 

indicates the collectibility of assets taking into account transaction 

conditions, such as guarantee/collateral, credit period, and tenor. 

An obligor grade is determined by first assigning a financial grade 

using a financial strength grading model and data obtained from the 

obligor’s financial statements. The financial grade is then adjusted 

taking into account the actual state of the obligor’s balance sheet 

■SMBC’s Obligor Grading System

are reviewed once a year, and whenever necessary, such as when 

there are changes in the credit situation. There are also grading 

systems for loans to individuals and project finance and other struc-

tured finance tailored according to the risk characteristics of these 

types of assets.

The Credit & Investment Planning Department centrally man-

ages the internal rating systems and properly designs, operates, 

supervises, and validates the grading models.

It validates the grading models of main assets following the proce-

dures manual (including those for statistical validation) once a year 

to ensure their effectiveness and suitability.

(b) Quantification of Credit Risk

Credit risk quantification refers to the process of estimating the 

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

account not just the obligor’s Probability of Default (PD) but also the 

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

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

and securities.

and to reply to the customers without delay. It also facilitates the 

effective management of credit risk as well as the flexible setting of 

credit assessments and monitoring conducted over credit periods. 

interest rates.

The following framework is used for managing individual loans at 

SMBC, the core bank of SMFG.

(a) Credit Assessment

At SMBC, credit assessment of corporate loans involves a variety 

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

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

titative measures, when combined with qualitative analyses of indus-

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

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

comprehensive credit assessment. The loan application is analyzed 

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

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

  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 busi-

ness. We also 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 maintain an understanding 

of the circumstances surrounding the obligor in order to reassess 

obligor grades and review self-assessment and credit policies so 

that problems can be detected at an early stage and quick and

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

ing basic policies to the management of the entire credit portfolio 

to maintain and improve its soundness and profitability over the 

medium to long term.

(a) Risk-Taking within the Scope of Capital

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

SMFG sets a credit risk capital limit for internal control purposes. 

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

quality  and  calculating  the  appropriate  level  of  write-offs  and 

provisions. Each asset is assessed individually for its security and 

collectibility. Depending on the borrower’s 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 borrower 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 

is based on the risk appetite of each business unit as well as its 

and guarantees. 

portfolio plans.

(b) Controlling Concentration Risk

As the equity capital of SMFG may be materially impaired in the 

event that the credit concentration risk becomes apparent, we 

implement measures to manage credit toward industrial sectors 

with excessive risk concentration and introduce large exposure 

limit lines and conduct intensive loan review for obligors with large 

exposure.

To manage country risk, we also have credit limit guidelines 

based on each country’s creditworthiness.

(c) Researching Borrowers More Rigorously and Balancing Risk 

and Returns

SMBC,  the  core  bank  of  SMFG,  conducts  rigorous  self- 

assessments of asset quality using criteria based on the Financial 

Inspection  Manual  of  the  Financial  Services  Agency  and  the 

Practical Guideline published by the Japanese Institute of Certified 

Public Accountants. Self-assessment is the latter stage of the obli-

gor grading process for determining the borrower’s ability to fulfill 

debt obligations, and the obligor grade criteria are consistent with 

the categories used in self-assessment. As part of our efforts to bol-

ster risk management throughout SMFG, consolidated subsidiaries 

carry out self-assessment in substantially the same manner.

81

2017 Annual Report 
 
(b) Asset Write-Offs and Provisions

In cases in which 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 

possible loan losses.

The write-off and provision standards and procedures for each 

self-assessment borrower category at SMBC, the core bank of 

SMFG, are shown below.

As  part  of  our  overall  measures  to  strengthen  credit  risk 

management  throughout  SMFG,  all  consolidated  subsidiaries 

use substantially the same standards as SMBC for write-offs and 

provisions.

The expected loss amount for the next 12 months is 
calculated for each grade based on the grade’s historical

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

Provisions made for claims that have been found uncollectible 
in part or in total (individually evaluated claims)

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 rea-
sonably 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 evaluation of each indi-
vidual 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 bank-
ruptcy, SMBC makes every effort to utilize up-to-date and correct 
data to realize the most accurate estimates possible.

(c) Disclosure of Problem Assets

Problem assets are loans and other claims of which recovery of either 

principal or interest appears doubtful and are disclosed in accordance 

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

loans”)  and  the  Financial  Reconstruction  Act  (in  which  they  are 

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

on the borrower categories assigned during self-assessment.

For detailed information on results of self-assessments, asset 

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

March 31, 2017, please refer to page 265.

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 by 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 risks and appropriately manage the risk 

of losses.

Market and Liquidity Risks

discuss ALM operation policies.

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 unex-

pected. 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; and clearly separating front-office, 

middle-office, and back-office operations to establish a highly effi-

cient system of mutual checks and balances.

Verification of the effectiveness of this risk management system 

is conducted through regular internal audits implemented by the 

independent Audit Department.

3. Market and Liquidity Risk Management Methods

(1) Market Risk Management
SMFG manages market risk by setting maximum limits for value at 

risk (VaR) and maximum loss based on business policies pertaining 

to market transactions. These limits are set within the risk capital 

limit, which is determined taking into account the Group’s share-

holders’ equity and other principal indicators of the Group’s financial 

position and management resources.

  Market risk can be divided into various factors: foreign exchange 

rates, interest rates, equity prices, and option risks. SMFG 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, the risk of interest rate fluctuation differs sub-

stantially by how to recognize the dates for the maturity of demand 

deposits (current accounts and ordinary deposit accounts that can 

be withdrawn at any time) and how to estimate the time of cancella-

tion prior to maturity of time deposits and consumer loans. 

2.  Market and Liquidity Risk Management System

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 Pillar 2 of the 

Basel Framework.

Decline in economic value as of March 31, 2017, was around 

1% of total capital, substantially below the 20% criterion.

Operational Risk

1. Basic Approach to Operational Risk Management

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

and tangible asset risk—consists of the following seven event types 

that may lead to the risk of loss defined in the Basel Capital Accord: 

(1) internal fraud, (2) external fraud, (3) employment practices and 

workplace safety, (4) clients, products, and business practices, (5) 

damage to physical assets, (6) business disruption and system

failures, and (7) execution, delivery, and process management.

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

tem risk, covers legal risk, human resources risk, reputational risk,

2. Operational Risk Management System
Based  on  the  group-wide  basic  policies  for  risk  management 

established by SMFG, Group companies construct operational risk 

management system. 

At  SMFG,  the  Management  Committee  makes  decisions 

on important matters such as basic policies for operational risk 

management, and these decisions are authorized by the Board of 

Directors. In addition, the Corporate Risk Management Department 

oversees the overall management of operational risks and works 

together with departments responsible for the subcategories such 

as processing risks and system risks to establish a system for com-

prehensively managing operational risks.

As a brief overview, this system operates by collecting and 

analyzing internal loss data from Group companies. In addition, 

the system entails comprehensively specifying scenarios involving 

operational risks based on the operational procedures of companies 

that have adopted the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) on 

a 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. For those scenarios having high 

severities, risk mitigation plans will be developed and the implemen-

tation status of such risk mitigation plans will be monitored by the 

Corporate Risk Management Department. Furthermore, operational 

risks are quantified and quantitatively managed by utilizing the col-

lected internal loss data and scenarios.

Regular reports are issued to the Group CRO on internal loss 

data, scenario risk severity information, and the status of risk 

mitigation. In addition, the Risk Management Committee, a cross- 

organizational committee established within SMFG, discusses 

measures for mitigating risks. Through these and other efforts, 

SMFG is striving to ensure effective risk management. Moreover, 

SMFG’s independent Internal Audit Department conducts periodic 

internal audits to verify that the Group’s operational risk manage-

ment system is functioning properly. 

ment methodology used to create risk mitigation measures must be 

such that the implementation of the measures quantitatively reduces 

operational risks.

At the end of March 2008, SMFG adopted the AMA set forth by 

the Basel Capital Accord for calculating the operational risk equiva-

lent amount. The approach has been utilized for the management of 

operational risks since then.

Specifically, a model to which internal loss data and scenario anal-

ysis results are input has been introduced to calculate the operational 

risk equivalent amount and risk asset amounts. In addition, steps are 

taken to ensure the objectivity, accuracy, and comprehensiveness 

of scenario evaluations by utilizing external loss data and Business 

Environment and Internal Control Factors in verification processes.

The  quantification  model  produces  the  distribution  of  loss 

frequency and loss severity based on the internal loss data and 

scenario analysis results, 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 various combinations of frequen-

cies and amounts of losses according to the Monte Carlo simulation 

method. In addition, the model 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 losses on repayment of excess interest of cer-

tain subsidiaries engaged in consumer finance operations, expected 

losses are deducted from the maximum amount of operational risk 

loss when calculating the operational risk equivalent amount.

Operational risk equivalent amount in respect of the tangible 

asset damages arising from earthquakes is measured using the 

probability data of earthquake occurrence in each part of Japan and 

the distribution of loss amount from those earthquake occurrences.

The measurement units are SMFG consolidated basis, SMBC 

consolidated basis, and SMBC non-consolidated basis. The opera-

tional risk equivalent amount based on the AMA is calculated as the 

simple aggregate of the amount of the seven event types set forth 

by the Basel Capital Accord and of tangible asset damages arising

mation system, and the risk of loss incurred due to the breakdown 

including those caused by cyber attack, malfunction, deficiency or 

unauthorized use (unauthorized alteration, destruction, duplication 

and leakage of the information).

SMBC operates its risk management system by conducting risk 

assessments based on the Financial Services Agency’s Financial 

Inspection Manual and the Security Guidelines published by the 

Center for Financial Industry Information Systems (FISC) and by 

SMFG has set the following as basic principles: recognizing 

enhancing safety measures based on the results of these assess-

information systems as an essential part of management strategy 

taking  into  account  advances  in  IT,  minimizing  system  risk  by 

drafting regulations and specific management standards, (including 

a security policy) and establishing contingency plans to minimize 

losses if a system risk materializes. A risk management system has 

thus been put in place to ensure adequate risk management.

Taking into account the growing sophistication and diversifica-

tion of cyber attacks seen on a global scale, the increasing social 

impact from the damage inflicted by such attacks, and the risk

and detection of attacks; and cyber attack response measures. 

ments. Systems troubles at banks have the potential to heavily 

impact society. In addition, system risks are diversifying due to 

advances in IT and the expansion of business fields. Recognizing 

these facts, we have numerous measures in place for system trou-

ble prevention, including constant maintenance to ensure stable 

and uninterrupted operation, duplication of various systems and 

infrastructure, and a disaster-prevention system placed in computer 

centers in eastern and western Japan. To maintain the confiden-

tiality of customer data and prevent leaks of information, sensitive 

information is encrypted, unauthorized external access is blocked, 

and all other possible measures are taken to secure data. We also 

have contingency plans for unforeseen circumstances and hold 

training sessions as necessary to ensure full preparedness in the

ALM
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%. 

Back-testing
Method of verifying the validity of models by comparing the model value 
and actual value. For instance, in the case of VaR, comparing and verify-
ing the value of VaR and the profit or loss amount.

Basel III
The Basel Capital Accord, an international agreement, was amended in 
December 2010 for ensuring the soundness of banks (minimum capital 
requirements) for the purpose of enhancing the capabilities of appropri-
ately responding to any financial and economic crisis and reducing risks 
which may have originated from financial sector to adversely affect the 
actual economy. It has been implemented incrementally since 2013.

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. 

BPV
Abbreviation for Basis Point Value 
Potential change in present value of financial product corresponding to 
0.01-percentage-point increase in interest rates.

Credit cost
Average losses expected to occur during the coming year.

Historical simulation method
Method of simulating future fluctuations without the use of random num-
bers, by using historical data for risk factors.

LGD
Abbreviation for Loss Given Default
Percentage of loss assumed in the event of default by obligor; ratio of 
uncollectible amount of the exposure owned in the event of default.

Monte Carlo simulation method
General  term  used  for  a  simulation  method  which  uses  random 
numbers.

Outlier framework
Monitoring standard for interest rate risk in the banking book, as set 
forth in the Pillar 2 of the Basel Capital Accord.

Operational risk equivalent amount
Operational risk capital requirements under the Basel Capital Accord.

PD
Abbreviation for Probability of Default 
Probability of becoming default by obligor during one year.

Present value
A future amount of money that has been discounted to reflect its current 
value taking into account the interest rate and the extent of credit risk.

Risk appetite
The types and levels of risk that SMFG is willing to take on or tolerate to 
drive earnings growth.

Risk capital
The  amount  of  capital  required  to  cover  the  theoretical  maximum 
potential loss arising from risks of business operations. It differs from the 
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.

Risk-weighted assets 
• Credit risk

Total assets (lending exposures, including credit equivalent amount of 
off-balance sheet transactions, etc.) which is reevaluated according to 
the level of credit risk.

• Operational risk

Amount derived by dividing the operational risk equivalent amount by 
8%.

Underlying assets
General term used for assets which serve as the source of payments for 
principal and interest for securitization exposures, etc.

VaR
Abbreviation for Value at Risk
The maximum loss that can be expected to occur with a certain degree 
of probability when holding a financial asset portfolio for a given amount 
of time.

(1)  Provision of Products and Services Suited to  

the Customer

When drawing up and underwriting financial products, we will act 

with an accurate understanding of customer needs, determining the 

ideal target customer group based on the risks and complexity of 

the products, in order properly develop and select products.

We will also help customers to find the ideal products and services. 

Our first step in this process will be to learn about our customers, 

inquiring into their needs and goals. We will next look at their level of 

knowledge, investment experience, and asset portfolios so that we 

can propose the best possible products and services for them.

If we think that a product may not be ideally suited to a customer’s 

needs based on its characteristics or risks, we will discuss this 

matter with the customer as necessary and refrain from proposing 

such products when doing so is inappropriate.

work. SMFG thus develops its performance evaluation systems 

from a long-term perspective with the aim of encouraging customer- 

oriented sales activities. At the same time, we are expanding our 

range of training programs for promoting earnest and just work 

practices and higher levels of business ethics.

SMFG and its Group companies aim to facilitate the shift from sav-

ings to asset holding seen in Japan through such initiatives.

Furthermore, we will periodically disclose information on initiatives 

by SMFG and its Group companies based on this policy with the 

aim of facilitating understanding regarding these initiatives among 

customers. In addition, the status of initiatives and their results will 

be verified so that initiatives can be revised as necessary to improve 

upon operating practices. Information regarding these verifications 

and revisions will be disclosed.

Information

The amount of information provided to customers on the charac-

teristics, risks, and fees of the products we handle as well as on 

the economic climate and market trends will be enhanced to help 

customers make informed decisions. Furthermore, we will strive to 

explain this information in an easy-to-understand manner.

(3) Clarification of Fees
SMFG receives fees from customers for the products and services 

it provides out of consideration for the need to develop and improve 

of information as well as for processing- and infrastructure-related 

expenses. We will seek to provide thorough explanations of these 

fees that are as easy to understand as possible.

(4) Management of Conflicts of Interests
Performing  duties  in  an  earnest  and  just  manner  based  on  a 

customer- oriented  perspective  entails  managing  any  potential  

conflicts of interests to ensure that our operations are truly customer 

oriented.

  Based  on  the  Management  Policy  Concerning  Conflicts  of 

Interest in SMFG, we have defined the types of conflicts of interest 

requiring management as well as the types of transactions that 

tend to present conflicts of interests and procedures for identifying 

these transactions, methods and systems for managing conflicts 

of interest, and the scope of Group companies at which conflicts of 

interest should be managed. In this manner, we take steps to ensure 

that conflicts of interest are properly managed and therefore do not 

impede the interests of customers.

SMFG2017 Annual Report 
 
 
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, 2017 which was ¥112.19 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.

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” on the consolidated statements of income.

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 (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.”

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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes 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 tangible fixed assets primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful 

7 to 50 years
2 to 20 years

2) 

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 (5 to 10 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 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 borrowers, 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 for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017 were ¥301,983 million and ¥288,145 million, 
respectively.

(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 executives, 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 our 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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements(10) Reserve for reimbursement of deposits 

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

(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, mainly the benefit formula basis is used to calculate 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 installment-sales-related 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, February 13, 2002) 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, July 29, 2002) 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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes 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 other consolidated subsidiaries apply the deferred hedge accounting, 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 to income directly 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)
In accordance with the revision to the Corporation Tax Act, some domestic consolidated subsidiaries apply the “Practical Solution on a change 
in depreciation method due to Tax Reform 2016” (ASBJ Practical Issues Task Force No.32, issued on June 17, 2016) and changed the 
depreciation method for accompanying facilities to buildings and structures acquired on or after April 1, 2016 from the declining-balance 
method to the straight-line method, starting from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. Effects of this change to Ordinary Profit and Income 
before income taxes during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 are immaterial.

(Additional information)
Recoverability of Deferred Tax Assets
SMFG applies the “Implementation Guidance on Recoverability of Deferred Tax Assets” (ASBJ Guidance No.26 issued on March 28, 2016) 
from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.

Adoption of the consolidated corporate-tax system
SMFG applies the “Practical Solution on Tentative Treatment of Tax Effect Accounting under Consolidated Taxation System (Part 1)” (ASBJ 
Practical Issues Task Force No.5, issued on January 16, 2015) and “Practical Solution on Tentative Treatment of Tax Effect Accounting under 
Consolidated Taxation System (Part 2)” (ASBJ Practical Issues Task Force No.7, issued on January 16, 2015) from fiscal year ended March 31, 
2017 on the premise that SMFG file a tax return as a consolidated entity, since the Commissioner of the National Tax Agency has approved the 
adoption of the consolidated corporate-tax system by SMFG and some consolidated subsidiaries starting from fiscal year ended March 31, 2018.

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, 2016 and 2017 were as follows:

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 other consolidated subsidiaries revalued their own land for business activities in accordance with “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 SMFG’s share of the net unrealized gains, net of deferred taxes, are reported as “Land revaluation excess” in 
“Net assets.” 

Certain equity method affiliates also revalued its own land for business activities in accordance with the Act. SMFG’s share of the net 

unrealized gains and 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 
Other consolidated subsidiaries and equity method affiliates: 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 Article 2-3, 2-4 or 2-5 of “Order for Enforcement of Act on Revaluation of Land” (Cabinet Order No. 119 effective 
March 31, 1998). 
Other consolidated subsidiaries and equity method affiliates: Fair values were determined based on the values stipulated in Article 2-3 
and 2-5 of “Order for Enforcement of Act on Revaluation of Land” (Cabinet Order No. 119 effective March 31, 1998).

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. 

The carrying amounts of idle assets at SMBC are reduced to their recoverable amounts, and the decreased amounts are included in 
“Extraordinary losses” as “Losses on impairment of fixed assets,” if there are indicators that the invested amounts may not be recoverable. 
And the carrying amounts of branches, corporate assets and idle assets at other consolidated subsidiaries are reduced in the same method as 
at SMBC. 

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. 

The unit of goodwill is mainly based on each consolidated subsidiary. All unamortized balance of goodwill for the fiscal year ended 
March 31, 2017 was included in “Extraordinary losses” as “Losses on impairment of fixed assets” since there are indicators that amount of 
goodwill relating to SMBC Friend may not be recoverable. The recoverable amount is calculated using net realizable value which is 
determined based on revalued corporate value.

(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, 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, SMFG’s major consolidated subsidiary, 
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 (in Asia and Oceania 
regions, the Asia and Oceania Treasury Dept. is responsible for derivative transactions for both ALM and trading purposes). 

(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 hedging method to assess the effectiveness of the hedge 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 Group are set forth in “Regulations on Risk Management.” SMFG’s 
Management Committee establishes the basic risk management policy for the entire Group, based on the Regulations, which is then 
approved by the Board of Directors. SMFG Group 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 monitors 
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 on a Group basis. 

1)  Management of credit risk 

SMFG has established fundamental principles on credit risk management to thoroughly manage the credit risk of the entire Group. 
Each group company conducts integrated management of credit risk according to its operational characteristics, and the credit risk 
inherent in the entire portfolio as well as the risk in individual credits are managed quantitatively and continuously.

At SMBC, SMFG’s major consolidated subsidiary, basic policies on credit risk management and other significant matters require 
the resolution of Management Committee and the approval of 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 

overall credit portfolio through selling credit derivatives and 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’s 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 of 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 keep credit risk exposure to a permissible level relative to capital, SMBC sets “credit risk capital limit” for internal control 
purposes. Under these limits, separate guidelines are issued for each business unit and marketing unit. SMBC regularly 
monitors compliance with these guidelines. 

•  Controlling concentration of risk 

Because concentration of credit risk in an industry or corporate group has the potential to impair a bank’s capital significantly, 
SMBC implements measures to prevent excessive concentration of loan in a single industry and to control large exposure to 
individual borrowers by setting maximum loan amounts and conducting loan reviews thoroughly. 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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements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 properly managed. When the counterparty is a financial institution with whom SMBC frequently conducts derivative 
transactions, measures such as a close-out netting provision, which provide that offsetting credit exposures between the two 
parties will be combined into a single net payment from one party to the other in case of bankruptcy or other default event, 
are implemented to reduce credit risk. 

2)  Management of market and liquidity risks 

SMFG manages market and liquidity risks across the entire Group 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 of the business units that directly handle 

business transactions and 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, its cross-departmental “ALM Committee” reports on the state of observance of SMBC’s market and liquidity risk 

capital limits, and deliberates on administration of ALM policies. It also has a system whereby front-office departments, middle-
office departments and back-office departments check each other’s work in order to prevent clerical errors, unauthorized 
transactions, etc. 

In addition, its Internal Audit Unit, which is independent of 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 such as loans and 
bonds in assets, deposits in liabilities) 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, equity risk, option prices and other market risk 
factors, SMBC manages such risks by setting a maximum limit on the indicator suited for each market risk factor such as BPV 
(basis point value: denotes the change in value of a financial instrument resulting from a 0.01 percentage-point change in the 
yield). 

•  Quantitative information on market risks 

As of March 31, 2017, total VaR of SMBC and its major consolidated subsidiaries was ¥47.4 billion for the banking activities, 
¥23.6 billion for the trading activities and ¥1,544.5 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, establishing 
contingency plans, and maintaining a system of highly liquid supplementary funding sources. 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, it holds assets such as U.S. treasuries that can be sold immediately and emergency committed lines as 
supplemental liquidity.

2017/08/07   14:04:34

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements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. 

2.  Fair value of financial instruments  

(1)  “Consolidated balance sheet amount,” “Fair value” and “Net unrealized gains (losses)” of financial instruments as of March 31, 2016 and 

2017 are as follows:

The amounts shown in the following tables do not include financial instruments (see (3) below) whose fair values are extremely 

difficult to determine, such as unlisted stocks classified as Other securities, and stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates.

*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,” “Receivables under securities borrowing transactions,” “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 in “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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes 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 regarded to 
approximate their market 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 of benchmark bonds and publicly-offered subordinated bonds published 
by securities firms. 
7) Trading liabilities: 
The fair values of bonds sold for short sales and other securities for trading purposes are, in principle, based on their market prices 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.

Fiscal year ended March 31, 2017
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, 2016 and 2017 were ¥4,838 million and ¥8,592 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 remaining term *2 ...................................................
Expected dividends *3 .........................................................................
Risk-free interest rate *4 ......................................................................

July 26, 2016
32.20%
4 years
¥150 per share
(0.17)%

*1. Calculated based on the actual stock prices during 4 years from August 16, 2012 to August 15, 2016.
*2. The average expected remaining term 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, 2017 of the date of grant. 
*4. Japanese government bond yield corresponding to the average expected remaining term.

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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes 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.

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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportNotes 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, 2017 and 2016, 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, 2017 and 2016, 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, 2017 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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III Information

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.
“Consolidated Capital Ratio Information” was prepared principally based on the Notification, and the terms and details in the section may 
differ from those in other sections of this report.

■ Scope of Consolidation
1. Consolidated Capital Ratio Calculation

• Number of consolidated subsidiaries: 354
  Please refer to “Principal Subsidiaries and Affiliates” on page 104 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., Cedyna Financial 
Corporation

(2) Overseas Operations

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (China) Limited, Banco Sumitomo 
Mitsui Brasileiro S.A., JSC 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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III Information2. Exposures by Asset Class
(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 81). 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, 2017.
• 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.

• “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” includes apartment construction loans. Following implementation of our domestic business structure revision started in April 2014, “Domestic 

Corporate Exposures” includes SME loans because their grading system is 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 pages 
80 to 81) 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.

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 ¥61.6 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 ¥164.4 billion on a consolidated basis for 
fiscal year 2016.

SMBC recorded an increase of ¥64.3 billion in total credit costs compared to the previous fiscal year, which resulted in an expense 
of ¥61.1 billion on a non-consolidated basis in fiscal year 2016, due to the recognition of costs derived from a downturn in the business 
of obligors with large exposure.

■ Standardized Approach
1. Scope

The following consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the standardized approach for exposures as of March 31, 2017 (i.e. consolidated
subsidiaries not listed in the “Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach: 1. Scope” on page 215).

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

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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III 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

There is a framework in place for controlling concentration of risk in obligors with large exposures which includes large exposure limit 
lines, risk concentration monitoring, and reporting to the Credit Risk Committee (please refer to pages 78 to 82). Further, exposures to 
these obligors are monitored on a group basis, taking into account risk concentration in their parent companies in cases that exposures to 
the obligors are guaranteed by the parent companies for risk mitigation.

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.

1. Risk Management Policy and Procedures

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

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

(2) Netting

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

■ Securitization Exposures 
1. Risk Management Policy

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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III 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
Excluding consolidated subsidiaries, subsidiaries or affiliated companies holding securitization exposures related to the security transactions 
conducted by the Holding Company Group are as follows:
• NEC Capital Solutions Limited

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), S&P Global Ratings (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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III 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.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III 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 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 86 to 88.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III InformationLiquidity Coverage Ratio Information (Consolidated)
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Since March 31, 2015, the “Liquidity Coverage Ratio” (hereinafter referred to as “LCR”), the liquidity regulation under the Basel III, has been 
introduced in Japan. In addition to the application of uniform international standards, SMFG calculates its consolidated LCR using the 
calculation formula stipulated in the “Criteria for Evaluating the Soundness of Liquidity Status Set Forth by a Bank Holding Company as a 
Benchmark for Judging the Soundness of Management of Itself and its Subsidiaries, etc., Based on the Provision of Article 52-25 of the 
Banking Act, and Which Are Also the Criteria to be Referred to for Judging the Soundness of Management in Banks” (Notification No. 62 
issued by the Japanese Financial Services Agency in 2014; hereinafter referred to as the “LCR Notification”). 

■ Disclosure of Qualitative Information about Liquidity Coverage Ratio
1. Intra-period Changes in Consolidated LCR
  As described in the following page, the LCR has remained stable with no significant fluctuation since the introduction of the liquidity 

regulation on March 31, 2015.

2. Assessment of Consolidated LCR
  The LCR Notification stipulates that the minimum requirement of LCR for 2017 is set at 80.0% and from 2018 onwards, the minimum 

requirement of LCR is raised in increments of 10.0% in stages, reaching 100.0% in and after 2019 (see table below).

The minimum requirement of LCR ..............................................

60.0%

70.0%

80.0%

90.0%

2015

2016

2017

2018

2019 onwards
100.0%

  LCR of consolidated SMFG exceeds the minimum requirements of LCR for 2017 (80.0%) and for 2019 onwards (100.0%), having no cause 
for concern. SMFG does not expect that the future LCR forecasts will differ significantly from the announced ratios. In addition, the actual 
LCR does not differ significantly from the initial forecast.

3. Composition of High-Quality Liquid Assets
  The high-quality liquid assets held by consolidated SMFG that are allowed to be included in the calculation of LCR include deposits with 
central banks, highly-rated bonds and cash. As described in the following page, the amount of such high-quality liquid assets exceed the 
amount of net cash outflows. Meanwhile, currency denominations, categories and location, etc. of the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be 
included in the calculation have not shown any significant changes. In addition, in respect of major currencies (those of which the aggregate 
amount of liabilities denominated in a certain currency accounts for 5.0 % or more of SMFG’s total liabilities on the consolidated basis), 
there is no significant mismatch in currency denomination between the total amount of the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be included 
in the calculation and the amount of net cash outflows.

4. Other Information Concerning Consolidated LCR
  SMFG has not applied “special provisions concerning qualifying operational deposits” prescribed in Article 28 of the LCR Notification and 
“increased liquidity needs related to market valuation changes on derivative or other transactions simulated through Scenario Approach” 
prescribed in Article 37 of the same Notification. Meanwhile, SMFG records “cash outflows related to small-sized consolidated subsidiaries,” 
etc. under “cash outflows based on other contracts” prescribed in Article 59 of the same Notification.

These assets are disclosed based on the provisions of Article 7 of the Financial Reconstruction Act (Act No. 132 of 1998) and classified into the 4  
categories based on financial position and business performance of obligors in accordance with Article 6 of the Act. Assets in question include private place-
ment bonds, loans and bills discounted, foreign exchanges, accrued interest, and suspense payment in “other assets,” customers’ liabilities for acceptances 
and guarantees, and securities lent under the loan for consumption or leasing agreements.

fiscal 2016. Amount of ¥23.6 billion in fiscal 2016, recognized as “new occurrences” in the first half of the term, was included in the amounts off-balanced 
in the second half.

SMBC2017 Annual ReportSMBCBasel III InformationLiquidity Coverage Ratio Information (Consolidated)
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and Subsidiaries

Since March 31, 2015, the “Liquidity Coverage Ratio” (hereinafter referred to as “LCR”), the liquidity regulation under the Basel III, has been 
introduced in Japan. In addition to the application of uniform international standards, SMBC calculates its consolidated LCR using the 
calculation formula stipulated in the “Criteria for Evaluating the Soundness of Liquidity Status Set Forth by a Bank as a Benchmark for Judging 
its Soundness of Management, Based on the Provision of Article 14-2 of the Banking Act” (Notification No. 60 issued by the Japanese Financial 
Services Agency in 2014; hereinafter referred to as the “LCR Notification”). 

■ Disclosure of Qualitative Information about Liquidity Coverage Ratio
1. Intra-period Changes in Consolidated LCR
  As described in the following page, the LCR has remained stable with no significant fluctuation since the introduction of the liquidity 

regulation on March 31, 2015.

2. Assessment of Consolidated LCR
  The LCR Notification stipulates that the minimum requirement of LCR for 2017 is set at 80.0% and from 2018 onwards, the minimum 

requirement of LCR is raised in increments of 10.0% in stages, reaching 100.0% in and after 2019 (see table below).

The minimum requirement of LCR ..............................................

60.0%

70.0%

80.0%

90.0%

2015

2016

2017

2018

2019 onwards
100.0%

  LCR of consolidated SMBC exceeds the minimum requirements of LCR for 2017 (80.0%) and for 2019 onwards (100.0%), having no cause 
for concern. SMBC does not expect that the future LCR forecasts will differ significantly from the announced ratios. In addition, the actual 
LCR does not differ significantly from the initial forecast.

3. Composition of High-Quality Liquid Assets
  The high-quality liquid assets held by consolidated SMBC that are allowed to be included in the calculation of LCR include deposits with 
central banks, highly-rated bonds and cash. As described in the following page, the amount of such high-quality liquid assets exceed the 
amount of net cash outflows. Meanwhile, currency denominations, categories and location, etc. of the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be 
included in the calculation have not shown any significant changes. In addition, in respect of major currencies (those of which the aggregate 
amount of liabilities denominated in a certain currency accounts for 5.0 % or more of SMBC’s total liabilities on the consolidated basis), 
there is no significant mismatch in currency denomination between the total amount of the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be included 
in the calculation and the amount of net cash outflows.

4. Other Information Concerning Consolidated LCR
  SMBC has not applied “special provisions concerning qualifying operational deposits” prescribed in Article 29 of the LCR Notification and 
“increased liquidity needs related to market valuation changes on derivative or other transactions simulated through Scenario Approach” 
prescribed in Article 38 of the same Notification. Meanwhile, SMBC records “cash outflows related to small-sized consolidated subsidiaries,” 
etc. under “cash outflows based on other contracts” prescribed in Article 60 of the same Notification.

SMBC2017 Annual ReportSMBCBasel III InformationLiquidity Coverage Ratio Information (Non-consolidated)
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation

Since March 31, 2015, the “Liquidity Coverage Ratio” (hereinafter referred to as “LCR”), the liquidity regulation under the Basel III, has been 
introduced in Japan. In addition to the application of uniform international standards, SMBC calculates its non-consolidated LCR using the 
calculation formula stipulated in the “Criteria for Evaluating the Soundness of Liquidity Status Set Forth by a Bank as a Benchmark for Judging 
its Soundness of Management, Based on the Provision of Article 14-2 of the Banking Act” (Notification No. 60 issued by the Japanese Financial 
Services Agency in 2014; hereinafter referred to as the “LCR Notification”). 

■ Disclosure of Qualitative Information about Liquidity Coverage Ratio
1. Intra-period Changes in Non-consolidated LCR
  As described in the following page, the LCR has remained stable with no significant fluctuation since the introduction of the liquidity 

regulation on March 31, 2015.

2. Assessment of Non-consolidated LCR
  The LCR Notification stipulates that the minimum requirement of LCR for 2017 is set at 80.0% and from 2018 onwards, the minimum 

requirement of LCR is raised in increments of 10.0% in stages, reaching 100.0% in and after 2019 (see table below).

The minimum requirement of LCR ..............................................

60.0%

70.0%

80.0%

90.0%

2015

2016

2017

2018

2019 onwards
100.0%

  LCR of non-consolidated SMBC exceeds the minimum requirements of LCR for 2017 (80.0%) and for 2019 onwards (100.0%), having no 
cause for concern. SMBC does not expect that the future LCR forecasts will differ significantly from the announced ratios. In addition, the 
actual LCR does not differ significantly from the initial forecast.

3. Composition of High-Quality Liquid Assets
  The high-quality liquid assets held by non-consolidated SMBC that are allowed to be included in the calculation of LCR include deposits 
with central banks, highly-rated bonds and cash. As described in the following page, the amount of such high-quality liquid assets exceed 
the amount of net cash outflows. Meanwhile, currency denominations, categories and location, etc. of the high-quality liquid assets allowed 
to be included in the calculation have not shown any significant changes. In addition, in respect of major currencies (those of which the 
aggregate amount of liabilities denominated in a certain currency accounts for 5.0 % or more of SMBC’s total liabilities on the non-
consolidated basis), there is no significant mismatch in currency denomination between the total amount of the high-quality liquid assets 
allowed to be included in the calculation and the amount of net cash outflows.

4. Other Information Concerning Non-consolidated LCR
  SMBC has not applied “special provisions concerning qualifying operational deposits” prescribed in Article 29 of the LCR Notification and 
“increased liquidity needs related to market valuation changes on derivative or other transactions simulated through Scenario Approach” 
prescribed in Article 38 of the same Notification. Meanwhile, SMBC records “due to trust account,” etc. under “cash outflows based on other 
contracts” prescribed in Article 60 of the same Notification.

lateral such as accounts receivable and/or inventory.

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

as a whole by certain level (15%) is deemed to be the operational risk 
equivalent amount.

Calculation of credit risk-weighted assets under Article 145 of the 
Notification
Method used for calculating the credit risk-weighted assets for the fund 
exposure, etc. There is a method of making the total credit risk-weighted 
asset of individual underlying asset of funds, etc. as the relevant expo-
sure of the credit risk-weighted asset; or a method of applying the risk 
weight determined based on the formation of underlying assets to the 
relevant exposure.

Method  of  calculating  market  risk  using  formula  determined  by  the 
Financial Services Agency.

Underlying assets
General term used for assets which serve as the source of payments for 
principal and interest for securitization exposures, etc.

VaR
Abbreviation for Value at Risk
The maximum loss that can be expected to occur with a certain degree 
of probability when holding a financial asset portfolio for a given amount 
of time.

PD
Abbreviation for Probability of Default
Probability of becoming default by obligor during one year.

Phased rollout
Under the Basel Capital Accord (credit risk, operational risk), it is a tran-
sition made by certain group companies planning to apply the Internal 
Ratings-Based Approach or the Advanced Measurement Approach after 
the implementation of such methods on consolidated-basis.

Project finance
Out of credit provided for specified businesses such as electric power  
plants and transportation infrastructure, the only source of repayments  
is profits generated from the said businesses, and the collateral is tangi-
ble assets of the said businesses, and having an appreciable extent of  
control over the said tangible assets and profits generated from the said  
tangible assets.

Qualifying Revolving Retail Exposures (QRRE)
Exposure  which  may  fluctuate  up  to  the  upper  limit  set  forth  by  an 
agreement according to the individual’s voluntary decision, such as card 
loan and credit card, etc., and the upper limit of the exposure without 
any collateral is 10 million yen or less.

Resecuritization transaction
Out of securitization transactions, it is a transaction with securitiza-
tion  exposure  for  part  of  or  entire  underlying  assets.  However,  in  the 
case  that  all  of  underlying  assets  is  the  single  securitization  exposure 
and  the  transaction’s  risk  characteristics  are  substantively  unchanged 
prior to or after the securitization, the transaction is excluded from the  
resecuritization transactions.

Risk capital
The  amount  of  capital  required  to  cover  the  theoretical  maximum 
potential loss arising from risks of business operations. It differs from the 
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 weight
Indicator  which  indicates  the  extent  of  credit  risk  determined  by  the 
types of assets (claims) owned. Risk weight becomes higher for assets 
with high risk of default.

Securitization transaction
It is a transaction which stratifies the credit risk for the underlying assets 
into more than two exposures of senior/subordinated structure and has 
the quality of transferring part of or entire exposure to the third party.

Servicer risk
The  risk  of  becoming  unable  to  claim  for  the  collectives,  in  cases  of 
which  bankruptcy  of  the  supplier/servicer  occurs  prior  to  collecting 
receivables, in securitization and purchased claims transactions.

Simple risk weight method
One of market-based approaches for calculating the risk-weighted asset 
amount for the equity exposure, etc. by multiplying the listed shares and 
unlisted shares with the risk weights of 300% and 400%, respectively.

Slotting criteria
For  risk-weighted  asset  calculation  under  the  Internal  Ratings-Based 
(IRB)  Approach,  it  is  a  method  of  mapping  the  credit  rating  to  the  
risk-weight  in  5  levels  set  forth  by  the  Financial  Services  Agency  for 
Specialised Lending.

SMFG2017 Annual ReportBasel III InformationCompensation

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 during the fiscal year under review (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, Sumitomo Mitsui Finance 
and Leasing Company, SMBC Guarantee Co., Ltd., Limited 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

SMFG, as a Company with a Nomination Committee, has established a Compensation Committee to resolve the “policy to determine 
individual remuneration for directors and executive officers,” “executive compensation programme and relevant regulations,” 
and “individual remuneration for SMFG’s directors and corporate executive officers.” In addition, SMFG Compensation Committee 
reviews and discusses executive compensation programmes/practices of group companies of SMFG and the individual remuneration for 
SMFG’s other executive officers. Furthermore, group companies of SMFG respect the details of the deliberations at the Compensation 
Committee of SMFG and determine the compensation for directors and corporate auditors within the maximum total amount of 
compensation approved at an ordinary general meeting of shareholders.

(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 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.

SMFG2017 Annual Report■ Assessment of Design and Operation of Compensation Structure
Compensation Policy
(1) For Officers

SMFG hereby establishes the Executive Compensation Policy (the “Policy”) in order to provide guiding principles for its Compensation 
Committee to determine individual remuneration for its directors and executive officers (the “Executives”).
The Policy’s aim is that executive compensation pursuant to it shall provide the appropriate incentives for the Executives to pursue our 
Mission and our medium-/long-term vision of becoming “a global financial group that, by earning the highest trust of our customers, 
leads the growth of Japan and the Asian region”.
Group companies of SMFG shall determine their executive compensations in accordance with this Policy.


I. 
II. 

III. 
IV. 

SMFG’s executive compensation aims at providing appropriate incentives toward the realization of our mission and our vision.
 SMFG’s executive compensation shall reflect the changing business environment and the short-, medium- and long-term perfor-
mance of the group, and shall account for the contribution to shareholder value and customer satisfaction.
Individual remuneration shall reflect the assigned roles and responsibilities as well as the performance of the respective Executive.
 SMFG shall research and review market practices, including the use of third-party surveys, in order to provide its Executives with a 
competitive remuneration package.
 SMFG’s executive compensation shall discourage excessive risk-taking and foster a prudent risk culture expected of a financial institution.

V. 
VI.  Both external and internal regulations/guidelines on executive compensation shall be observed and respected.
VII.   SMFG shall establish appropriate governance and controls of the compensation process, and shall regularly review to update its ex-

ecutive compensation practices according to changing market practices and/or business environment.


I. 

 SMFG’s executive compensation programme (the “Programme”) shall have three components: base salary, cash bonus, and stock 
compensation.
 In order to hold the Executives accountable and provide them with appropriate incentives for the performance of the group, the 
Programme targets the variable compensation component of total remuneration at 40%, if paid at standard levels. Corresponding 
with performance and the business environment, the variable component could range from 0% to 150% of the standard levels, 
which shall be determined by corporate titles of the Executives.
 In order to enhance shareholding of the Executives and align their interests with shareholders, the Programme targets its stock-
based compensation components at 25% of total remuneration, if paid at standard levels.

II. 

III. 

IV.  The above target levels shall be appropriately set in accordance with the roles, responsibilities, etc. of each Executive.
V. 

 Base salary shall be paid in cash and shall be, in principle, determined by the corporate titles of each Executive, reflecting the roles, 
responsibilities, etc.
 Annual incentives shall be determined based on the annual performance of the group, the group company and the business unit 
each Executive is accountable for, as well as on the performance of the respective Executive reviewed both from short-term and me-
dium-/long-term perspectives. 70% of the determined amount shall be paid as a cash bonus and the remaining 30% shall be paid 
under Stock Compensation Plan II (annual performance share plan).

VI. 

VII.   Stock compensation plans consist of Stock Compensation Plan I (the “Plan I”), under which the remuneration of the Executives shall 
be determined based on SMFG’s medium-term performance, etc., Stock Compensation Plan II (the “Plan II”), determined based on 
SMFG’s annual performance, etc. and Stock Compensation Plan III (the “Plan III”), determined based on corporate titles, etc.
a.  Under the stock compensation plans, the Executives shall receive remuneration via shares of SMFG common stock. The   transfer 

of such stock shall be restricted for appropriately defined periods.

b.  Remuneration under Plan I shall be determined based on SMFG’s performance against the Medium-term Management Plan, 

performance of SMFG shares, and the results of customer satisfaction surveys, etc.

c.  Remunerations under Plan II shall be determined based on the annual performance of SMFG, the group company, and the busi-
ness unit each Executive is accountable for, as well as on the performance of each Executive reviewed both from a short-term and 
medium-/long-term perspectives. Remuneration paid by restricted shares, they shall effectively act as deferred compensation.

d. Remuneration under Plan III shall be determined based on corporate titles, roles, and responsibilities, etc.

VIII.  In the event of material amendments to the financial statements or material reputational damages caused by the Executives, remu-

IX. 

nerations under the Plans could be reduced or fully forfeit.
 Notwithstanding the above, executive compensation for the Executives domiciled outside Japan shall be individually designed and 
determined not only in accordance with this Policy, but also with consideration to local regulations, guidelines, and other local 
market practices, whilst ensuring the compensation should not incentivize for excessive risk-taking.


SMFG, as a Company with a Nomination Committee, has established a Compensation Committee to resolve the following:
    •  The Policy, executive compensation programme and relevant regulations.
    •  Individual remunerations for SMFG’s directors and corporate executive officers.
In addition to the above, SMFG Compensation Committee shall review and discuss the below:
    •  Executive compensation programmes/practices of group companies of SMFG.
    •  The individual remuneration for SMFG’s other executive officers.

(2) For Employees and Others

In order to link the business philosophy and strategy of the company to the roles and responsibilities of employees and others, SMFG and 
its major consolidated subsidiaries determine the domestic compensation taking into account their job responsibilities, business 
performance and other factors.

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

Performance
1. SMFG and SMBC

In determining the compensation for the officers of SMFG, the details of individual compensation for directors and executive officers 
are determined by the mandatory Compensation Committee, where the majority of the committee members are the outside 
directors. The compensation for the officers of SMBC are determined within the scope approved at a shareholders' meeting.

In order to hold the Executives accountable and provide them with appropriate incentives for the
performance of the group, the Programme targets the variable compensation component of total
remuneration at 40%, if paid at standard levels. The Programme shall have three components: base salary, cash bonus, and 
stock compensation. Cash bonus shall be determined based on the annual performance of the group, as well as on the 
performance of the respective Executive reviewed both from short-term and medium-/long-term perspectives. Stock 
compensation is determined based on the progress of the Medium-term Management plan, performance of SMFG shares, and 
the results of customer satisfaction surveys, etc. SMFG and SMBC allot restricted stocks via the Plans to Executives to 
effectively defer part of executive compensation.
In addition, SMFG and SMBC introduced the malus (forfeiture) of restricted stock and the claw-back of vested stock allocated 
to the Executives under the Plans in order to restrain excessive risk-taking and foster a prudent risk culture expected of a 
financial institution. Provisions on malus and clawbacks are included in the Allotment Agreement and they shall be exercised 
in the event of material amendments to the financial statements or material reputational damage caused by the Executives 
after thorough review at the Compensation Committee.
In addition, in determining the compensation for employees, their job responsibilities and business performance are taken 
into account. For variablecompensation, in order to avoid an excessive result-oriented approach, it is determined after 
comprehensive evaluation based on not only short-term performance results but also qualitative evaluation. Compensation is 
individually designed with consideration to local regulations, guidelines, and other market practices, whilst ensuring the 
compensation should not incentivize for excessive risk-taking.

2. Other Major Consolidated Subsidiaries

The compensation for officers and employees of other major subsidiaries of SMFG are determined by comprehensively taking 
into account the assessment of the subsidiaries’ medium- and long-term earnings, and in the case of an overseas subsidiary, lo-
cal laws, regulations and employment practices, and a compensation structure that could affect the risk management of the 
group has not been adopted. In addition, expenses for employee retention are recorded for employees of certain major consoli-
dated subsidiaries.
