Response to SMBC Group’s Donations to the Center for iPS Cell Research and Application, Kyoto University (CiRA)
Pursuing a Safe and Quick End to the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to disrupt our lives, and we all pray that a vaccine or another 

effective treatment will be developed as soon as possible. However, such breakthroughs require time, 

and we therefore have to prepare for a drawn-out battle with this virus.

In the midst of this battle, SMBC Group graciously offered to donate equipment to CiRA. This 

most-generous action enabled us to quickly commence a number of research ventures together with 

prefectural governments and research institutions, and I am incredibly grateful for this kindness. We 

are encouraged by the dedicated efforts of SMBC Group and various other companies and individuals 

looking to do what they can today to help bring about a safe and quick end to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Understanding the behavior and characteristics of a virus is imperative to developing treatments. 

We are working together with other institutions to contribute to the development of treatments by 

means of research using iPS cells.

Let us all come together to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and our society.

ESG Highlights

Profit attributable to owners of parent exceeded the target of ¥700 billion in FY2019 despite 
the negative impact of COVID-19 pandemic. This was mainly due to the increase in gains on 
sales of bonds with the decline of overseas interest rates, low credit costs that continued 
until the third quarter of the fiscal year under review, and a reduction in tax burden.

We were able to reach our Medium-Term Management Plan target for ROE of 7-8% due to 
the steady progress of the plan, which led to higher-than-expected profit attributable to 
owners of parent.

Support for initiatives in Japan and overseas

OHR remained nearly flat compared with FY2016 after excluding the impacts of group 
reorganizations. This was mainly due to continued overseas expenditures including 
regulatory compliance costs, offsetting cost reduction through group-wide cost control 
initiatives.

CET1 ratio is still greatly exceeding the required level, while it decreased YoY by 0.82%. This 
decrease was mainly due to an increase in risk-weighted asset through allocating capital in 
overseas business and providing financial support to customers, as well as a decrease in net 
unrealized gains on other securities as a result of stock price decline caused by COVID-19 
pandemic.

As a global corporate citizen of the global society, SMBC Group is fully aware of the social impact of financial institutions, and 

it supports the following initiatives in Japan and overseas (the action guidelines for the corporate activities and principles).

MESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CEO

Building the Path 
to our Future

Jun Ohta

Director President and Group CEO

Overcoming the “Unexpected”

Our world is undergoing fundamental change. We have seen COVID-19 

spread to all corners of the globe in what seemed like the blink of an eye, 

and the virus continues to wreak havoc on an unprecedented scale. No one 

could have possibly foreseen the scale of disruption COVID-19 would have on 

our lives at the beginning of the year. “Unexpected” is a fitting description of 

COVID-19 and its global impact. However, I feel that circumstances described 

as “unexpected” have increased over the past few years. Natural disasters 

of a scale previously occurring only once in a 100 years are occurring on a 

seemingly annual basis. The results of the 2016 United States presidential 

election and the United Kingdom European membership referendum 

overturned prior expectations.

While it is easy to merely dismiss these events as unexpected, we need 

014    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

P 004

SMBC Group’s Response to 

COVID-19

To Our Stakeholdersto ask ourselves if they really were. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, humanity 

battled and defeated numerous new infectious diseases, such as cholera, 

smallpox, and SARS. Thus, the speed and scope at which COVID-19 has 

spread can be viewed as a negative aspect of globalization, an ideal that 

we have all benefited from, coming to rise. Similarly, global warming lies 

behind the intensification of natural disasters, and the rise of populism has 

its roots in the fact that frameworks, such as democracy, which served as the 

foundations of economic growth in the post-war era have become outdated in 

their current format. The point I am trying to illustrate is that the events which 

we have witnessed over the past few years would most likely have occurred in 

some form or format eventually. In order to realize sustainable growth, SMBC 

Group must strive to become a more sophisticated organization, capable of 

SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020    015

To Our StakeholdersAbout SMBC GroupBusiness Strategies for Creating ValueCorporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationMESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CEO

evolving our business model constantly so that we can continue to prosper 

even when the business environment undergoes rapid and extensive change 

due to a black swan event. 

Business leaders must be able to accurately 
identify medium- to long-term trends by keeping 
calm and viewing matters from a bird’s-eye view, 
even though the world may be in the midst of 
major upheaval.

However, we must keep in mind that overreacting to these risks or 

allowing our awareness of them to become distorted could cause us to 

misread how the world is changing or what our business vision should be. 

The COVID-19 pandemic is said to have sparked a fundamental change in 

peoples’ values, but I believe that it is during times such as these that we 

must take a long and careful look at what we change and what we keep 

untouched. The further acceleration of digitalization to realize “Society 

5.0” is the key example of how our world will change. For example, we are 

seeing an increasing number of customers using online transactions as part 

of their efforts to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. The number of 

SMBC’s customers engaging in online transactions increased by 36% year-

on-year and digital contracts concluded using services provided by SMBC 

CLOUDSIGN experienced a dramatic 10-fold month-on-month increase 

following the Government of Japan declaring a state of emergency in April 

2020. I expect for online transactions to continue gaining popularity even 

after COVID-19 is brought fully under control given its superiority in terms 

of convenience and cost-efficiency, not to mention that the benefits of 

those services will increase given the ripple effect of additional users. On 

the other hand, lifestyles, habits, and family and work-related values that 

have developed over hundreds, if not thousands, of years will not be so 

easily changed. For example, is it possible to provide optimal solutions that 

address customer needs without engaging in face-to-face communication? 

Is it possible to pass-on SMBC Group’s corporate culture to junior employees 

or ensure their proper professional development without person-to-person 

interaction? Such concerns require serious and in-depth consideration. 

Business leaders must be able to accurately identify medium- to long-term 

trends by keeping calm and viewing matters from a bird’s-eye view, even 

though the world may be in the midst of major upheaval.   

016    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

To Our StakeholdersSteering a Supertanker

Innovation is the key to successfully overcome changes in the current 

business environment, as innovation is what allows for the creation of a strong 

yet flexible organization that continuously evolves its business model. People 

often associate the term innovation with the image of a genius experiencing 

an epiphany and discovering a new concept or vision. However, this is not 

always the case. In order to pursue sustainable growth, it is crucial to develop 

a corporate culture which encourages all employees to be unafraid of failure 

and continue attempting to create new business opportunities so that small 

improvements are realized throughout SMBC Group. 

For this reason, ever since I was appointed Group CEO in April 2019, 

I have urged employees to “Break the Mold” and proactively pursue new 

challenges without being bound by precedent or fixed ideas. I have assigned 

management resources to employees who have stepped forward and 

established new companies for them to lead. So far, nine companies have 

been established in such a manner, and I will continue to encourage in-house 

business ventures as part of my CEO production project. The introduction 

of a free dress code policy which received considerable media attention 

was also aimed at changing the mindset of employees. I want to establish 

a transparent and encouraging corporate culture that allows employees to 

freely pursue their dreams and aspirations.  

Making this vision a reality however is by no means an easy task. There 

will be employees who hesitate, fearing their careers could still be negatively 

impacted even though the Group CEO’s message is to be unafraid of failure, 

and many people will view change as an inconvenience rather than as an 

opportunity. Therefore, I will continue to encourage employees who are 

pursuing new challenges by repeating my message and building a track 

record of successful inhouse business ventures. Even when employees are 

not successful in their efforts, I will not blame them. Rather, I will praise them 

for their bravery and determination.   

SMBC Group is made up of one hundred thousand employees who are 

located throughout the world. So, in terms of size, you could say that SMBC 

Group is like a supertanker. When you attempt to change the direction of such 

a large vessel, those changes may appear to be slow and gradual. However, 

once the correct direction has been set and we begin the journey towards our 

goals, I promise you that the momentum we witness will be phenomenal.

Becoming a Global Solutions Provider

So where should we direct our supertanker? In April 2020, we established 

SMBC Group’s new vision: “A trusted global solution provider committed to 

the growth of our customers and advancement of society.” 

P 028

Break the Mold

SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020    017

To Our StakeholdersAbout SMBC GroupBusiness Strategies for Creating ValueCorporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationMESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CEO

This new vision reflects our commitment to realizing the sustainable 

growth of SMBC Group by providing top tier solutions on a global basis, 

not only by further honing our capabilities in the financial sector, but also 

expanding into non-financial sectors so that we can better address the needs 

and issues of customers and of society. 

There are three key themes that we must adhere to in order to realize 

this vision. 

Data Oriented
The first theme is data oriented.

Information and data are very valuable assets which are not represented 

in a company’s balance sheet, and businesses around the world, not 

only those in the financial sector, are striving to monetize these assets. 

Going forward, how well a company can monetize information assets and 

incorporate them into its P/L will be the key to success. In addition to 

accumulating a vast volume of payment and credit information through our 

various business lines which include banking, securities, and consumer 

finance, SMBC Group also possesses top tier capabilities in personal data 

protection and online security, two issues which must be addressed before 

utilizing data. 

For example, Sumitomo Mitsui Card released “stera” a payment platform 

that provides all the necessary functions to facilitate cashless payment 

transactions. At the same time, it released “Custella” a service which supports 

clients in planning management strategies, developing new products, and 

creating new marketing strategies by using AI to analyze the payment data 

that is accumulated via the platform. If we can further develop such services, 

it will allow us to engage in a variety of new “data +α” businesses, for example 
personnel data trust banking, advertising, and personalized marketing that 

targets individual customers.  

Building Platforms
The second theme is to build platforms. 

Through bank deposits and payment services we have established 

relationships with corporate and individual customers both in and outside of 

Japan. By leveraging this robust customer base that is based on many years 

of mutual trust, SMBC Group can build platforms which provide a variety of 

services with its capabilities in the financial sector. 

I am not concerned about the principle of self-sufficiency in our efforts 

to enhance our platforms. In the unbundling of financial functions, I think 

that it is only natural that players from outside the financial sector take over 

some of those functions. I view companies from outside the financial sector, 

018    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

To Our Stakeholdersnot only as rivals with whom we engage in healthy competition, but also as 

partners whose capabilities complement ours and vice-versa. For example, 

SMBC Group recently established Plari Town, Inc., a digital platform that 

supports the digitalization of mid-tier companies and SMEs, and we are 

working to swiftly enhance the value of the platform by including various 

services provided by external partners. We will strive to create an ecosystem 

that creates business opportunities involving not only SMBC Group and our 

customers, but also between customers themselves, by collecting various 

information as a result of our platform securing an ever growing customer 

base.  

Solutions Provider 
The third theme is to become a solutions provider. 

Customer needs are becoming increasingly diverse and sophisticated, 

and SMBC Group must become our customers’ most trusted business partner 

who can provide solutions to a wide range of issues. Let us take Japan’s 

aging society as an example. When a financial institution considers potential 

measures to address the needs of an aging society, a common approach is 

to consider the types of financial products, with the focus being on existing 

products, that can be used to build customers’ post-retirement asset portfolios. 

We need to break-out of this outdated method of thinking. The concerns of 

elderly customers are not limited to building-up their post-retirement assets, 

they include a range of issues, such as nursing and health care, the passing on 

of assets to the next generation, and relations with family members. We cannot 

allow ourselves to view potential solutions based on the narrow perspective 

of wealth management products and loans. Rather, we must identify all the 

issues that our customers are facing and work with companies from outside 

the financial sector to provide solutions which add true value. 

Concepts Behind the New Medium-Term 
Management Plan

We launched a new Medium-Term Management Plan in FY2020 to take the 

first step to realize this vision and begin our journey to build the future of the 

financial sector. The preparation of the new Medium-Term Management Plan 

included more than one year of deliberations in an all team’s effort including 

mid- and junior-level employees. While the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic 

was certainly not part of the deliberation process, the new Medium-Term 

Management Plan was prepared based on the understanding that our 

business environment would be challenging with irreversible structural 

changes, such as climate change, our shrinking mother market, and the rise

To Our StakeholdersAbout SMBC GroupBusiness Strategies for Creating ValueCorporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationMESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CEO

of geopolitical risks as demonstrated by the US-China trade war. I am fully 

confident that the Plan contains well thought-out strategies which will allow 

us to overcome any adversities we may face and realize further growth. This 

is why we will proceed without any doubt or hesitation, even though we are 

facing many challenges, both foreseen and unforeseen. 

We established the following three core policies as part of the Medium-

Term Management Plan: Transformation, Growth, and Quality.

First, so that we may emerge victorious from this challenging business 

environment, we will devote our utmost efforts to continue restructuring 

our business model and cost structure. In the previous Medium-Term 

Management Plan, we concentrated on enhancing productivity by 

establishing Discipline and Focus as core policies. In the new Medium-Term 

Management Plan, we took these policies one step further to “Transformation”, 

and we will increase profit by engaging in the fundamental transformation 

and streamlining of our business model.

For example, for cost control our goal is to realize cost reductions of 

¥100 billion, double our target for the previous Medium-Term Management 

Plan, by reforming domestic businesses, reorganizing our domestic retail 

branches, and integrating group operations. In addition, we will continue to 

reduce unprofitable assets and strategic shareholdings as part of our efforts 

to optimize risk-weighted asset management. 

On the other hand, while we were still in the process of accumulating 

capital in the previous Medium-Term Management Plan, we have now 

reached our CET1 ratio target which will allow us to utilize capital and other 

management resources in the New Medium-Term Management Plan. As 

such, we will decisively allocate capital to business sectors for which medium-

to long-term growth can be expected. 

For example, in our inorganic strategy, while being disciplined we will 

use surplus capital to proactively pursue opportunities to acquire businesses 

and portfolios with high capital and asset efficiencies, in addition to business 

platforms to realize medium- to long-term growth. In addition, ¥100 billion 

has been allocated as “CEO Budget” for IT related investments. This 

framework will allow for agile investments to be made in businesses, such as 

digital-related enterprises and cashless payments, that are deemed to have 

potential for significant future growth.   

Quality is the core policy that applies to our management base. We 

will work tirelessly to strengthen our management base so that we may 

meet the expectations of our stakeholders as a global financial group, for 

example accelerating sustainability management, realizing human resource 

management that allows for personnel to realize their full potential, and 

further enhancing our Risk Appetite Framework to promote appropriate risk 

taking. 

Presently, on a core earnings basis our bottom-line is approximately 

¥640 billion. In the previous Medium-Term Management Plan, our bottom-

020    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

To Our Stakeholdersline exceeded ¥700 billion for all three years due to reversal of provisions from 

large borrowers and gains from the sale of strategic shareholdings. However, 

I am by no means satisfied with this profit level. In the new Medium-Term 

Management Plan, through our seven key strategies we will strive to increase 

consolidated net business profit by ¥100 billion and realize a core earnings 

bottom-line of more than ¥700 billion in the final year.

Seven Key Strategies

We will focus on our seven key strategies to realize our goal of raising our 

profit level on a core earnings basis. I will introduce two key strategies which 

I feel best characterize the core policies of Transformation and Growth as the 

heads of our respective business units will discuss the details of their specific 

strategies in the later sections of this report.  

Pursue Sustainable Growth of Wealth Management Business
Given Japan’s declining population, in order to realize sustainable growth 

of our retail business we need to focus management resources on growth 

areas while simultaneously enhancing efficiencies. In regard to enhancing 

efficiencies, we are reforming our cost structure while preserving, if not 

improving, the customer experience by further developing non-face-to-face 

channels, for example online services, and improving the productivity of 

face-to-face transactions by reorganizing our domestic retail branches. For 

high-net-worth customers possessing minimum assets of ¥2 billion, we have 

consolidated our banking, securities, and trust banking services under the 

new brand SMBC Private Wealth. In addition to wealth management products 

which reflect our unique strengths, SMBC Private Wealth offers customers a 

comprehensive line-up of solutions including business succession consulting, 

trust banking, and concierge services. For mass affluent customers we will 

engage in personalized marketing by analyzing their transaction data so that 

our proposals fit their preferences and lifestyles. Through these efforts we will 

grow our top line revenues while lowering the break-even point of our wealth 

management business. 

Expand our Franchise in Asia
Under our Multi-franchise strategy, we have devised and implemented 

initiatives based upon a time span of ten, twenty years in order to build a 

second and third SMBC Group in Asia’s developing economies. Indonesia, 

a key market in our Multi-franchise strategy, is expected to see its economy 

grow at a slower rate due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there are 

three commitments we made when we were formulating our strategy. First 

is to become a full-line financial services provider in the target market, 

second is that the franchise would have a strong home-market focus with

To Our StakeholdersAbout SMBC GroupBusiness Strategies for Creating ValueCorporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationMESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CEO

its foundations firmly embedded in the local economy, and third is that we 

would not retreat even when faced with changes in the business environment. 

When we experience a sudden downturn in the economy, such as our current 

situation, companies often consider the possibility of exiting foreign markets 

given that such circumstances lead to a renewed focus on their respective 

mother markets. However, it is not possible to grow together with developing 

markets if we take such an approach. As such, we will not retreat, even in 

times of economic downturn, and we will construct a robust business base by 

establishing firm relationship with markets, such as Indonesia, where GDP is 

expected to grow over the medium- to long-term. Going forward, in addition 

to expanding our Multi-franchise strategy to India and the Philippines, we 

will enhance the overseas presence of our securities, leasing, and consumer 

finance businesses so that we can reach the next stage of growth and 

development as a full-line financial services provider.  

To our Stakeholders

I will now share my commitment to our stakeholders, which extends beyond 

the term of the new Medium-Term Management Plan.  

Supporting our Customers’ Future
Our first and foremost focus is to support customers who are suffering from 

the adverse effects of COVID-19. As part of our efforts to provide undisrupted 

financial services that are indispensable to our customers’ everyday lives, 

we have kept open all SMBC branches by taking necessary safety measures. 

In addition, we have taken a flexible approach in order to support the cash 

flow needs of individual and corporate customers, for example introducing 

loans with special interest rates and extending repayment schedules. SMBC 

Group will fulfill its responsibility as part of society’s infrastructure so that our 

customers and society itself can return to normal at the earliest possible date.  

“Data oriented” “Build Platforms” and “Solutions Provider” have been 

established as the key themes which SMBC Group will pursue. These themes 

were decided following a careful analysis of what the future role of financial 

institutions will be based on the future direction we envisioned our customers 

pursuing. I want SMBC Group to become a proactive solutions provider that 

is consistently prepared to extend optimal support to customers once they 

decide upon a course of action.

Customer-Oriented Initiatives

Human Resources Strategy

Creating a Work Environment Where Employees can Pursue 
Their Dreams with Confidence and Ambition
First, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all of our employees 

who are working tirelessly to ensure that SMBC Group is able to continue 

offering undisrupted financial services which are indispensable to our 

customers’ lives amidst the havoc caused by COVID-19. I have a responsibility 

to protect the health and wellbeing of all of our one hundred thousand 

SMBC Group employees, and failing this responsibility will have serious 

repercussions, including the possibility that we may no longer be able to 

provide a full range of financial services. Management will continue to 

extend the maximum level of support to employees, such as the thorough 

implementation of infection preventive measures at branch offices and 

carrying out initiatives aimed at ensuring employees’ physical and mental 

wellbeing, so that they are able to carry-out their responsibilities with 

confidence and peace of mind.  

In addition to the above, I want to create a work environment where 

employees can pursue their dreams with confidence and ambition. When 

establishing HR frameworks, for example to enhance employee engagement 

or to support employees in challenging themselves, we cannot forget that 

establishing frameworks is not the goal. Frameworks are merely tools to 

help us achieve our true objectives. In order to transform SMBC Group into 

a vibrant and energetic organization, in addition to building the corporate 

culture which I have just shared with you, we are also developing an 

internal SNS system. The goal is for SMBC Group employees, irrespective 

of their assigned country or department, to communicate daily and offer 

encouragement when a colleague puts forth a new idea. The focus must be 

on what we can do rather than what we cannot. I want to create a workplace 

in which innovation is a natural result of employees carrying out their duties 

with a sense of fun and purpose, even under the challenging business 

environment we are currently facing.

Building a Sustainable Society with our Customers 
SMBC Group defines sustainability as: “Creating a society in which today’s 

P 078

generation can enjoy economic prosperity and well-being and pass it on to 

Sustainability Management

future generations.” In recent years, we are seeing environmental and social 

issues, for example climate change due to global warming and human rights 

violations resulting from the establishment of international supply chains, 

on a global scale. Given this backdrop, the expectations placed on financial 

institutions to address such developments are extremely high given our 

business allows us to act as a hub connecting various industries.  

In April 2020, we launched the SMBC Group Statement on Sustainability 

(“the Statement”) and established SMBC Group GREEN×GLOBE 2030, a ten 

year plan that extends to 2030 through which we will realize the objectives 

of the Statement, so that we may remedy social issues through our business 

and further enhance our SDG-related initiatives. Specifically speaking, for 

SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020    023

To Our StakeholdersAbout SMBC GroupBusiness Strategies for Creating ValueCorporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationMESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CEO

environmental goals a target of �10 trillion has been set for Green Finance 

and a 30% reduction in SMBC’s CO2 emissions, while for social goals we will 

hold financial literacy education sessions for 1.5 million participants aimed 

at realizing financial inclusion and expand retail financial services in Asia’s 

emerging market economies. Furthermore, for governance goals, we will 

tirelessly pursue the enhancement of our corporate governance and risk 

governance capabilities as they are the foundations upon which sustainability 

management is built.  

However, there is a limit on what we at SMBC Group can accomplish 

by ourselves. What is important is that we create a sizeable, cohesive 

movement by involving retail and corporate customers. SMBC Group recently 

launched GREEN×GLOBE Partners, a community platform that aims to solve 

environmental and social issues. Through the platform, SMBC Group will 

work with customers to realize a sustainable society by hosting seminars and 

facilitating the exchange of information concerning the environment and 

society, assisting participants in connecting with each other, and initiating 

projects that contribute to solving social issues.

Maximizing Shareholder Value from both Financial and non-
Financial Perspectives 

Under the previous Medium-Term Management Plan, we launched 

initiatives aimed at enhancing shareholder returns. We realized a dividend 

increase of ¥40 over the three years covered under the previous Medium-

Term Management Plan and increased our dividend payout ratio from 30% 

to 37%. We also completed share buybacks totaling ¥170 billion. There 

is no change to our commitment to enhancing shareholder returns in the 

new Medium-Term Management Plan. Dividends will remain our principal 

approach to shareholder returns, and we will also continue our flexible 

approach to share buybacks. While we are currently facing a challenging 

business environment due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we will steadily 

carry-out the business strategies established under the new Medium-Term 

Management Plan and over the next three years we will strive to grow our 

bottom line and realize a dividend payout ratio of 40%.  

In addition to enhancing the quantitative and financial returns which 

I have just shared, I am fully aware that enhancing the long-term non-

financial value of SMBC Group is equally as important to our shareholders. 

We will enhance the non-financial corporate value of SMBC Group by 

focusing on adding value to customers via the three key themes and ESG-

related initiatives aimed at realizing a sustainable society. We will continue to 

proactively disclose both financial and non-financial information so that we 

can minimize any differences in the information available to our shareholders 

and SMBC Group, and decrease the cost of shareholder’s equity in order to 

realize the sustainable growth of shareholder value.

To Our StakeholdersBuilding the Path to our Future

The Daoist text Liezi from China’s Warring States era contains the fable “The Foolish 

Old Man Removes the Mountains,” and its message is one of my favorite mottos. 

Once upon a time in China there was an old man called Yu Gong who lived at the foot 

of two very high mountains. As the two mountains were a hindrance to Yu Gong and 

travelers passing by his house, Yu Gong one day decided to level the mountains. Yu 

Gong’s neighbors mocked him, saying that he was a fool and that he would never 

accomplish the task during his lifetime. Yu Gong, however, replied that upon his death 

his son would carry on the task, who then would be succeeded by his grandson, and 

that the mountains would eventually be leveled if Yu Gong’s family never gave-up. 

Upon hearing this, the heavens approved of Yu Gong’s determination and moved 

the two mountains. The fable illustrates that perseverance will eventually allow us to 

accomplish any task, regardless of its size.  

We are witnessing the contraction of the global economy and irreversible 

structural changes. Although we must operate under a very challenging business 

environment, I have no doubt that by tirelessly working towards the realization of 

our vision, we too can move mountains and build the path to a bright future for the 

financial sector. I would like to ask for the continued support and understanding of 

all our stakeholders as I will stand at the forefront of our efforts to lead SMBC Group 

to new levels of growth and prosperity, with each and every one of our employees 

devoting their utmost efforts to accomplish this goal.

Ever since I was appointed Group CEO in April 
2019, I have urged employees to “Break the Mold.” 
The message behind the slogan is that I want our 
employees to proactively pursue new challenges 
in this rapidly changing business environment 
without being bound by precedent, fixed ideas, 
or organizational boundaries. I would like to take 
this opportunity to share a few examples of how 
employees responded to this message.

Break the Mold

Selecting a Free Workstyle
A free dress code policy was introduced in FY2019 as 

part of efforts to develop a corporate culture in which 

employees could pursue new challenges without being 

bound by precedent or convention. We received generally 

favorable feedback, such as “I felt that our corporate 

culture is changing” and “I was able to carry-out my 

responsibilities with a positive attitude” in our employee 

surveys. The policy also received positive feedback from 

the media, saying that it softened our conservative image. 

We also introduced frameworks allowing employees to 

telecommute or adopt flexible work schedules. I hope 

that providing employees with the flexibility to shape their 

working lives based on their lifestyle and professional 

responsibilities, without being bound by strict rules 

governing where or when they work, will allow them to 

produce a steady stream of new ideas that are unrestricted 

by fixed ideas. 

Our

 Challenge

028    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

To Our StakeholdersSelf-Development of RPA Tools
SMBC Group has been promoting the use of Robotic 

Process Automation (“RPA”) since FY2017. The purpose of 

introducing RPA is to free employees from routine tasks so 

that they can focus on high-value added tasks. While many 

companies have also introduced RPA, what makes our 

RPA efforts stand out is that we provide our employees with 

the training necessary to develop RPA tools themselves. 

Specifically, we established a comprehensive training 

program that not only includes classroom learning, but 

also provides one-on-one support to employees interested 

in developing RPA tools. Employees now play a critical role 

in pushing forward work style reform as they are further 
automating tasks and operations after experiencing 

firsthand the benefits of using self-developed RPA tools to 

enhance efficiency.

Producing new CEOs  
I am producing new CEOs from our employees in order to 

support them in breaking through the confinements placed 

upon them by the expected norms and precedents of the 

financial sector so that they could pursue new challenges. 

Through this project I have proactively allocated funds 

and human resources to employees who have come up 

with interesting new ideas that I feel could develop into 

new growth areas for SMBC Group, with the said individual 
assigned to lead the new in-house business venture. 

Nine companies have been established so far, with the 

establishment of SMBC CLOUDSIGN drawing particular 

attention given its CEO is still in his 30s. Mr. Hideki 

Mishima, the CEO of SMBC CLOUDSIGN, was a mid-

career hire who joined SMBC in 2018 and was originally 

responsible for overseeing our digital innovation center, 

“hoops link tokyo”. The initial vision for SMBC CLOUDSIGN 

was born from discussions between Mr. Mishima and 

representatives from bengo4.com at a hoops link tokyo 

event, and Mr. Mishima was named the CEO of SMBC 

CLOUDSIGN after successfully pitching the vision to SMBC 

Group’s top management team. I will continue to extend 

the maximum level of support to motivated, proactive 

employees, such as Mr. Mishima. 

Feedback from RPA Training Participants: 
Members of my department are often required to travel for work, 
and the calculation of monthly travel expenses had become a 
time-consuming burden. Thus, I developed an RPA tool which 
automatically calculates employees’ travel expenses. As of today, 
I have developed ten RPA tools, and I feel that I have been able 
to contribute to the streamlining of my department’s operations. 
My experience with RPA led me to develop an interest in 
programming, and I earned a certificate in JAVA through self-
study. Going forward, I want 
to challenge myself by taking 
on new responsibilities where 
I can leverage my programing 
skills.

Becoming a Role Model as CEO of 
the new in-house business venture: 
Discussions with my General Manager was the first step in my 
journey to becoming the CEO of SMBC CLOUDSIGN. I strongly 
believed that the project should be led by someone who was the 
most passionate about the new business, and I conveyed this 
to him. An employee directly approaching his or her superior 
as I did is unthinkable in the conservative culture of Japanese 
banks, and I feel that the company taking the time to listen to 
me and actually appointing me as CEO shows how seriously 
SMBC Group views the topic of self-reformation. Furthermore, 
the establishment of SMBC CLOUDSIGN was made possible 
due to the generous support I received from various internal 
departments. SMBC Group is an organization where employees 
who are pursuing new challenges or are thinking about pursuing 
new challenges can count on receiving the full support of their 
colleagues and supervisors. The importance of telecommuting is 
rapidly increasing given the current environment, and our digital 
contract services are receiving much interest as the last piece 
of digital technology that makes telecommuting a truly viable 
workstyle. I take great pride in leading a business that has the 
potential to make a positive impact on society, and I will do my 
best so that I can become a role model as the CEO of the new in-
house business venture.

In last year’s message, I shared my belief that in the context of management, financial and business strategies are two sides

• Review of the Previous Plan
In the previous Medium-Term Management Plan (“the 

Previous Plan”), SMBC Group categorized its business 

portfolio into four quadrants based on our competitive 

advantage and future potential. Through this categorization 

we swiftly reorganized our Group’s businesses in order to 

efficiencies.  

For the “Transform” and “Enhance” quadrants we 

deconsolidated the Kansai regional banks and SMFL 

in order to enhance capital and asset efficiencies by 

reducing our risk weighted assets. On the other hand, for 

our asset management business, which is positioned in 

the “Build” quadrant given its potential for future growth 

combined with our current lack of competitive advantage, 

we started proactively allocating management resources 

to build up our overseas presence, as illustrated by our 

acquisition of TT International and our investment in Ares 

Management.

ROCET1 is calculated using CET1 as the denominator with 

figure that is double the Previous Plan’s achievement, through 

CET1 being a valuable metric that we use in determining 

the three key initiatives: reform of domestic businesses, retail

branch reorganization, and integration of Group operations.

the Previous Plan is currently equivalent to an ROCET1 of 

8-9%. As such, our new target reflects practically raising the 

minimum level by 0.5%. 

Change in base expenses for coming three years

As for efficiency, we introduced a new concept, “base

expenses,” in order to achieve a balanced approach to cost 

control and investment for growth. Our goal is to realize base 

expenses that are lower than FY2019 levels. I will explain the 

definition of base expenses further below.

As for financial soundness, consistent with the Previous 

Plan, we aim to secure a CET1 ratio of c.10% on a post-Basel

• Further Enhancing Shareholder Returns
In the Previous Plan, we increased dividends throughout 

all three years (a total of �40 per share) while carrying out 

share buybacks totaling �170 billion. In the New Plan there 

is no change to our shareholder return policy of dividends 

being our principal approach while conducting flexible share 

buybacks. We will continue to pursue a progressive dividend 

policy, meaning that we will at least maintain, if not increase, 

dividend payments, and aim to achieve a dividend payout 

ratio of 40% by FY2022.

COVID-19

As stated in the Group CEO Message, the New 
Medium-Term Management Plan’s (“the New 
Plan”) goal is to realize sustainable growth in a 
challenging business environment, and we have not 
made any changes to the New Plan’s framework in 
response to COVID-19. However, I will touch upon 
some key points given that COVID-19 will have a 
big impact on our FY2020 financial results.

Credit Cost

Our FY2020 forecast for credit cost is ¥450 billion on a 

consolidated basis, of which ¥290 billion is for SMBC, 60% 

for Japanese corporations and 40% for non-Japanese 

corporations. As for Japanese corporations, half is for large 

corporates and the other half is for medium-sized corporations 

and SMEs. As for non-Japanese corporations, we expect 

increased costs in the leisure industry such as hotels and 

casinos, oil and gas, and LBOs. As for Group companies other 
than SMBC, we expect credit cost of ¥160 billion, a ¥40 billion 
increase from FY2019, centering on retail Group companies 
(SMBC Consumer Finance, Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company).  
While this represents a substantial increase in credit

W e are witnessing significant opportunities for 

expanding markets in the domestic retail banking 

field, including the overarching trend of shifting from 

savings to asset holding, the upcoming era in which 

people consistently live to be 100, the spread of cashless 

payments, and increasing digitalization.

Against this backdrop, we are striving to become 

the most trusted and No. 1 Japanese retail finance 

business. To this end, the Retail Business Unit was swift 

to begin reforming its business models through means 

such as transitioning to a customer-oriented wealth 

management business and embracing cashless payments

Sustainable Growth in Wealth Management Business
In the Retail Business Unit, we revise resource allocations based on 

the growth potential of specific market segments. In regard to high-

net-worth customers, we are strengthening sales capabilities through 

the consolidation of Group banking, trust, and securities services 

and appointing dedicated staff to increase our share of transactions 

from business owners and other wealthy large-scale clients. These 

efforts are part of our drive to promote the new SMBC Private Wealth 

service brand. Meanwhile, our approach toward the mass affluent 

segment, which is seeing growth in demand for asset building 

services, entails transitioning to highly productive sales approaches 

and models through digital and remote services promising significant 

convenience to customers, in order to efficiently capture a share of 

this vast, unexplored market. By expanding our balance of stock-

Online Merges with Offline Strategy
Points of contact with customers are rapidly shifting toward the 

Internet. In light of this trend, the Retail Business Unit is transitioning 

away from its prior business processes focused on face-to-face 

interactions to adopt business models oriented toward online 

interactions.

Part of this undertaking is streamlining work processes 

through extensive application of digital and remote technologies, 

which includes bolstering our artificial intelligence targeting and 

digital tools. We are also augmenting digital and remote channels 

in businesses that provide services to customers and coordinating 

these channels with face-to-face consulting in order to improve 

customer convenience in both online and offline settings.

F aced with Japan’s negative interest rate policy and a 

continuously challenging operating environment, the 

Wholesale Business Unit mustered the collective strength 

of SMBC to deliver sophisticated solutions and carry out 

operations with an extensive focus on profitability. It was 

thereby able to maintain high levels of return on equity.

During the period of the previous Medium-Term 

Management Plan, we achieved gains on loans for the first 

time in 10 years due to our allocation of funds to financing 

corporate acquisitions and other high-value-added 

applications. In addition, we were No. 1 in terms of the 

number of M&A advisory deals for the third consecutive 

year, and steady growth was seen in the number of initial 

public offerings in which we were the lead underwriter. 

These successes indicate that we have effectively 

established group-wide systems for delivering solutions 

for improving the corporate value of our customers.

The new Medium-Term Management Plan calls 

on the Wholesale Business Unit to fully leverage the 

strength that is its group-based comprehensive solutions 

capability to furnish solutions to the social issues and 

difficult management issues of customers seen as social 

structures and customers’ businesses transform during 

and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Capitalizing on this 

strength, we will pursue an unprecedented degree of 

coordination between domestic and overseas bases 

and Group companies and boldly allocate management 

resources to growth fields. 

The Wholesale Business Unit has also been 

promoting digitalization through collaboration with 

customers. Together with Toyota Motor Corporation, we 

launched TOYOTA Wallet. We engaged in co-creation 

with Komatsu Ltd. and other major companies. Moreover, 

we launched the Biz-Create online business matching 

service in addition to establishing the SMBC CLOUDSIGN 

cloud-based electronic contract service. These are just 

some of our unique initiatives in the digitalization field. 

Going forward, we will continue to implement initiatives 

for creating new businesses from the perspectives of 

customers.

Also in the future, we will further improve our 

strengths, including our keen ability to make proposals, 

speed, and pioneering spirit, to provide high-value-added 

solutions to customers and thereby contribute to the 

growth of customers and of the Japanese economy.

in addressing customers’ various issues and needs, the Wholesale 

Business Unit will provide group-based comprehensive solutions.

In addition, we are developing systems for delivering swift

global stage. As part of this process, we are enhancing our group-

based competitive edge in response to increasingly complex and 

sophisticated management issues pertaining to such matters as 

business portfolio revision and global M&A activities.

In Japan, corporate bankruptcies are on the rise, stimulating an 

increase in corporate restructuring needs. SMBC Group was a step 

ahead of the competition in developing a corporate restructuring 

business foundation to cater to these needs. On this front, we 

established SMBC Capital Partners Co., Ltd., a dedicated corporate 

restructuring support company, in February 2020, and this company 

is planning equity investments to the tune of ¥60.0 billion during the 

period of the new Medium-Term Management Plan. The Wholesale

customers and ensuring their business continuity as part of its value 

chain, and we will advance our corporate restructuring business on a

T he Global Business Unit faced a difficult business 

environment over the course of the previous

as US-China trade friction and the United Kingdom’s 

decision to leave the European Union. Amidst such 

adversity, we carried out various measures which 

produced steady results, permitting us to maintain upward 

trends in gross profit and net business profit. Specifically, 

we further enhanced collaborations between SMBC and 

SMBC Nikko Securities, advanced asset-turnover-based 

businesses, and expanded our product line-up in areas 

where we possess top-tier capabilities, such as aircraft 

leasing and project finance. 

Addressing customer needs will remain at the 

heart of our operations under the new Medium-Term

strengths to provide optimal solutions so that we can grow 

together with customers as a global financial group.

To this end, we will expand our overseas securities

with the unique strengths SMBC Group has developed 

over the years to deliver solutions that are tailor made to 

address customers’ business issues and the issues facing 

society. This will allow us to shift toward a business model 

that is not overly dependent on expanding our balance 

sheet by deepening customers’ trust in SMBC Group, 

accelerating efforts to promote cross-selling and enhance 

our standing as customers’ trusted business partner, and 

improving our profitability and efficiency. 

At the same time, we will focus on augmenting our 

earnings capacity through the expansion of operations in 

Asia and other growth markets. By deploying our Multi-

Franchise Strategy, we aim to incorporate the growth 

of the Asian market while aggressively pursuing new 

growth opportunities, such as acquisitions geared toward 

obtaining new business platforms for the future.

Through such initiatives, we will boost the earnings 

capacity of both Group companies and investees, generate 

synergies, and heighten the Group’s overall strength. 

In addition, we will take measures to reinforce business 

platforms for supporting sustainable growth through 

means such as reinforcing corporate governance systems, 

diligently streamlining operational structures, and ensuring 

the stable procurement of foreign currencies.

Discussions between Outside Directors and Investors and 
Analysts

In formulating the Medium-Term Management Plan that 

began in FY2020, we arranged discussions between outside 

directors and investors and analysts to enable these directors 

to receive direct input from the market. At the meetings, in-

depth discussions were carried out centered on such high-

interest topics as capital measures and the reduction of 

strategic holdings. This input was used in developing the 

Medium-Term Management Plan as well as capital measures 

and strategic holdings reduction plans.

Corporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationEvaluation of the Board of Directors’ Effectiveness

The “SMFG Corporate Governance Guideline” contains provisions on evaluating the 

effectiveness of the Board of Directors. In accordance with these provisions, annual 

analyses and evaluations are conducted by the Board of Directors to determine whether or 

not it is executing its duties in line with the guideline, and the results of these analyses and 

evaluations are disclosed.

In FY2019, the evaluation focused on the three areas described below, which are 

areas for which provisions exist in Japan’s Corporate Governance Code and the “SMFG 

Corporate Governance Guideline.” All seven outside directors were asked for their opinions 

regarding these areas at meetings of the Board of Directors held in April and May 2020, 

and interviews of internal directors were conducted thereafter. The primary subject of 

interviews with internal directors was their expectations of outside directors. Discussions 

based on the findings took place at Board of Directors’ meetings in June, after which 

analyses and evaluations were carried out to determine whether or not the Board of 

Directors was executing its duties in line with the “SMFG Corporate Governance Guideline.” 

Moreover, reviews by external specialists with expertise from developed nations are 

received at each stage of the evaluation process.

Role of the Board of Directors

· Steps are taken to invigorate discussions while taking advantage 

of the highly specialized expertise of the outside directors. 
These discussions were geared toward medium- to long-term 
improvements in corporate value based on the interests of 
various stakeholders while incorporating important matters 
related to business strategies to contribute to the fulfillment 
of “Our Mission.” In FY2019, the Board of Directors took part 
in discussions that carefully incorporated the input of outside 
directors on important themes pertaining to the Medium-Term 
Management Plan at an early stage in its development.

· Based on the executive-side discussions of the Management 

Committee, matters related to business plans and other basic 
management policies as well as the status of the business 
execution were presented and reported on several occasions. 
As a result, effective deliberations on these matters were able 
to take place and oversight functions were exercised properly.

· It is important for the Board of Directors to fulfill its role based 

on the changes in the operating environment to occur during 
and after the COVID-19 pandemic and supported by mutual 
understanding among inside and outside directors.

Proceedings of the Board of Directors and Support Systems for 
Outside Directors

· The number and content of agenda items as well as the amount 

of time dedicated to discussion of agenda items were more 
or less around the appropriate level. Discussions were livelier 
than those in the previous fiscal year due to clear identification 
of priority proposals and swift conclusion of discussions by 
the chairman of the Board as well as other improvements to 
proceedings.

· The Company continued to provide systems for effectively 

supporting the Board of Directors in making management 
decisions through venues such as study sessions for outside 
directors and forums for discussions between outside 
directors and internal directors, executive officers, and the 
accounting auditor. In FY2019, the newly introduced informal 
exchanges of opinion with internal officers helped foster mutual 
understanding between outside directors and internal officers 
and thereby contributed to livelier discussions at meetings of 
the Board of Directors.

· It is desirable for the Company to continue arranging informal 

exchanges of opinion between outside directors and internal 
officers to better utilize the insight of outside directors and 
contribute to more frank discussions.

Composition of the Board of Directors

· As of March 31, 2020, the Board of Directors consisted of 15 

directors, seven of which were outside directors. Accordingly, 
outside directors represented over 40% of all 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 Sumitomo Mitsui 

Financial Group with other members including executive 

officers and other officers designated by the President. The 

President of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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.

 Group-Wide Business Units and CxO System

In April 2017, the Company introduced group-wide business 

units and the CxO system with the aim of enhancing Group 

management. The group-wide business unit structure 

entailed the creation of the Retail Business Unit, the 

Wholesale Business Unit, the Global Business Unit, and the 

Global Markets Business Unit. The goal of this structure 

is to heighten our ability to address the various needs of 

customers on a group-wide basis by enabling the business 

units to formulate and implement business strategies based 

on their respective customer segments. The CxO system 

entails the appointment of nine Group chief officers in charge 

of specific areas in addition to the Group CEO (President of 

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group). This system is meant to 

improve Group management capabilities centered on the 

holding company. The heads of business units as well as the 

chief officer positions will, in principle, be filled with executive 

officers of the Company, with the one exception being the 

Group Chief Audit Executive (CAE). Individuals appointed to 

these positions are expected to exercise their duties as the 

person responsible for overseeing their business unit or head 

office division and report on the execution of their duties to 

the Board of Directors.

Realizing a Sustainable Society
SMBC Group revised Our Mission to include the statement 

“We contribute to a sustainable society by addressing 

environmental and social issues.” This change was made to 

clearly indicate the Group’s stance toward making even larger 

contributions to the healthy development of society.

In conjunction with the revision of Our Mission, we 

established the SMBC Group Statement on Sustainability 

to indicate our basic stance toward contributing to the 

realization of a sustainable society along with “SMBC 

Group GREEN×GLOBE 2030,” a 10-year plan that extends 

to 2030. This statement and plan will guide us in pursuing 

sustainability.

Environmental Initiatives

The global environment is an important asset that is shared by all of humanity, regardless of region or age, and a healthy environment is 
prerequisite to the realization of a sustainable society. SMBC Group is earnestly engaging with climate change and various other environmental 
issues. By helping resolve such issues through our business, we aim to ensure that we can pass on a healthy environment to future generations.

Target: Green Finance Amount

10trillion (by FY2029)

Sustainable Finance
SMBC Group is committed to the resolution of environmental and social issues through 

its business. One initiative for addressing financial issues is the provision of green 

finance specifically designed for environment-related initiatives. We have set the target 

of investing ¥10 trillion through green finance over the decade leading up to FY2029.

For example, we are helping promote renewable energy projects that use natural 

forces, such as solar and wind, to generate power. As a comprehensive financial group, 

we are uniting all Group companies and capitalizing on their unique characteristics in 

this undertaking. Accordingly, support for such projects is provided by SMBC through 

financing, SMBC Nikko Securities through investment, SMBC Trust Bank through 

contracting related to generation equipment and sites, and Sumitomo Mitsui Finance 

and Leasing through leasing of generation equipment.

In addition, the new Sustainable Business Promotion Department established 

within the Wholesale Business Unit and the SDGs Finance Department inside of SMBC 

Nikko Securities’ Capital Markets Division are working to address environmental and 

social issues through finance together with customers.

ESG-Minded Financing Policies
SMBC Group has disclosed financing policies for businesses and sectors with a high 

risk of significantly impacting the environment or society. Major subsidiaries (SMBC, 

SMBC Trust Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing, and SMBC Nikko Securities) 

are introducing these policies according to their business.

Going forward, we will continue to engage with customers and various other 

stakeholders while constantly considering the need to revise our financing policies as 

necessitated by the operating environment.

Businesses and Sectors for Which Policies Have Been Disclosed
• Coal-fired power generation   • Hydroelectric generation   • Oil and gas   • Coal mining
• Tobacco manufacturing   • Natural conservation areas   • Palm oil plantation development   • Deforestation
• Manufacturing of cluster bombs and other weapons of destruction

Social

Community

As people live and the economy advances, communities to form connections between proponents in these areas and thereby encourage mutual 
support and enable each other to act in peace of mind are needed. SMBC Group continues to contribute to communities and society and to fulfill 
our social responsibility as an entity that acts as a member of these communities.

GREEN×GLOBE Partners
The various environmental and social issues we face on a global scale are so massive 

that it is impossible for them to be resolved by one individual person or company. 

However, if people, companies, government agencies, and academic institutions can 

team up, united under a shared sense of conviction, we can take effective steps toward 

the resolution of these issues.

Based on this ambition, SMBC Group established GREEN×GLOBE Partners, a 

community for encouraging a wider range of people and companies to actively work 

together to resolve environmental and social issues. 

SMBC Group aims to help contribute to resolve social and environmental 

issues together with customers through initiatives such as broadcasting a variety of 

meaningful information arising out of its collective insight.

Contributions to Communities and Societies Impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic
SMBC Group has declared it intent to donate ¥1.5 billion to various organizations to 

help realize its desire for every customer, community, and society impacted by the 

COVID-19 pandemic to be able to go back to living healthily and with peace of mind as 

quickly as possible. In addition, we instated a matching gift scheme in which donations 

from Group officers and employees for supporting NPOs combating the pandemic are 

matched by the Company.

Recipients of these donations will include medical institutions and related 

organizations fighting to combat the spread of the virus and working to create an

effective treatment and organizations helping develop medical systems in emerging 

nations. In addition, we are conducting donations to support culture and the arts given 

the difficulty of maintaining operations as groups in this field are forced to refrain from 

holding events. These donations to culture and the arts are founded on our belief that 

mental health is important in these uncertain times.

By supporting communities and society as a whole, we aim to help shape an 

empowered world in which everyone can live with peace of mind.

Corporate Infrastructure Supporting Value CreationNext Generation

Ensuring the sustainability of our society and economy amid the changing social environment will require the cultivation of human resources who 
can support society with the necessary knowledge and technologies. SMBC Group is promoting sustainability by fostering the next-generation 
human resources and industries that will shape the society of the future together with us.

Financial Literacy Education
Capitalizing on its insight and expertise as a comprehensive financial group to 

contribute to society, SMBC Group is providing financial literacy education. We aim to 

supply such education to 1.5 million people by FY2029.

SMBC Consumer Finance has been holding PROMISE Financial and Economic 

Educational Seminars at its 17 Customer Service Plazas nationwide since FY2011. The 

aggregate number of participants in these seminars surpassed 1 million in FY2019. 

SMBC Consumer Finance is also expanding the educational programs it provides 

in response to the diversifying needs of participants. For example, it is coordinating 

with other Group companies to offer education on cashless payments and wealth 

management.

By providing financial literacy education to a wide range of age groups, from 

children to adults, SMBC Group will help build a society in which people can live with 

peace of mind by acquiring accurate knowledge pertaining to finances.

New Business Support Programs
To support next-generation businesses, SMBC Group is advancing the “Mirai” program. 

Through this program, we solicit business plans from people aspiring to commercialize 

some new idea or technology. A wide range of opportunities are provided to individuals 

whose plans passed the judging process, including business development support from 

advisors, networking assistance, and financial aid.

By offering such support to start-ups and people looking to launch enterprises, we 

aim to form ties between companies and investors and thereby stimulate their growth 

and innovation and contribute to the development of next-generation industries.

By supporting communities and society as a whole, we aim to help shape an

Overview of the Group’s Internal Audit Framework
The Department has been established under the Audit Committee and is independent 

from business units, compliance unit and risk management units. Internal audits within our 

Group companies are structured broadly in line with SMFG. The Group Chief Audit Executive 

oversees group-wide internal audit activities.

The Department verifies the appropriateness and the effectiveness of internal control 

which aims to assure the appropriateness of Group operations and the soundness of assets 

by conducting internal audits on each department and Group entity as well as conducting 

on continuous monitoring of Group companies’ internal auditing and other activities. The 

activities are based on the “Group Internal Audit Charter” and the “Basic Audit Policy and 

Plan” formulated by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors.

Major audit findings and relevant information are regularly reported to the Audit 

Committee, the Board of Directors, and the Group Management Committee. Whilst the 

Department strives to strengthen cooperation to conduct proper audit practices through 

frequent information exchange with external auditors.

Our Approach
As a part of SMBC Group’s internal 
control framework, the audit 
department (the Department) verifies 
the effectiveness of the internal control 
of business units, risk management 
units and other units from an 
independent standpoint and pursues 
the quality of internal audits in order 
to contribute to development and the 
highest trust across the entire SMBC 
Group.

Note: The Audit Committee holds the right to consent personal affairs of Chief Audit Executive.

Enhancement and Effectiveness of Internal Audit
The Department has adopted auditing methods in accordance with the Institute of 
Internal Auditors (IIA) standards,* conducts risk-based audits, and expands the same 
approach to Group companies. To implement effective and efficient internal audits, the 

Department conducts monitoring by attending important meetings and by obtaining internal 

management documents of SMFG and Group companies.

In addition, the Department seeks to enhance group-wide internal auditors’ expertise 

by gathering up-to-date internal audit practices, providing the practices to Group companies, 

holding training programs, and encouraging auditors to obtain internal auditors’ international 

certification.

Furthermore, the Department enhances its quality assurance on a group-wide basis by 

both fully satisfying the IIA standards and referring to G-SIFIs practices.

* The Institute of Internal Auditors, Inc. (IIA), was founded in 1941 in the United States as an organization dedicated to raise the level of 

specialization and the status of professionalism of internal auditing staff. Its main activity is to study the theory and practice of internal audit 

and to provide an internationally recognized qualification (Certified Internal Auditor (CIA)).

Risk
Management

Our Approach
Strengthening of compliance and risk management is 
positioned as a key issue in SMBC Group’s Principles of 
Action on Compliance and Risk. SMBC Group is therefore 
devoted to improving its systems in these areas in order 
to become a truly outstanding global group.

088    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

Risk Culture
In order for SMBC Group to realize and maintain a sustainable 

growth in corporate value as a “Top Tier Global Financial 

Group,” each one of our colleagues should think and judge 

on their own if their actions meet the expectations and 

requirements of customers, markets, and other stakeholders, 

not just if they are compliant with laws and regulations. 

SMBC Group has established “Principles of Action on 

Compliance and Risk” in order for every colleague to hold 

onto as a “keystone” of their daily business. The principle 

includes “Business based on the Risk Appetite Framework” 

and “Business operations which give a high priority to the 

management of risks such as credit risk, market risk, liquidity 

risk and operational risk.” Concrete measures include internal 

surveys for monitoring the compliance awareness and risk 

sensitivity of our colleagues as well as internal training for 

fostering a sound risk culture.

Risk Appetite Framework
SMBC Group has introduced a Risk Appetite Framework for 

controlling group-wide risks that clarifies the types and levels 

of risk that we are willing to take on or are prepared to tolerate 

in order to grow profits (risk appetite).

The Risk Appetite Framework is one of two pivots of 

our business management alongside business strategies. 

It functions as a management framework for sharing 

information on the operating environment and risks facing 

SMBC Group among management and for facilitating 

appropriate risk taking based thereon.

*1 Conduct Risk: Conduct risk is the risk that our conduct negatively affects 
customers, market integrity, effective competition, public interest, and SMBC 
Group’s stakeholders, through acts that violate laws and regulations or social 
norms.

Individual risk appetites have been established for 

specific business units or strategies as necessary based 

on the overall risk appetite of SMBC Group. Risk appetites 

are decided during the process of formulating business 

strategies and management policies. These risk appetites 

are set based on Top Risks that threaten to significantly 

impact management and on risk analyses (stress testing) that 

illustrate the impact if a risk should materialize. In addition, 

risk register and Key Risk Events (KRE) are utilized in verifying 

the adequacy of Top Risks, risk appetites, and business 

strategies.

The outlooks for the operating environment and risks 

and the risk appetite situation are monitored throughout 

the course of the fiscal year. Risk Appetite Measures and 

business strategies are revised as necessary. For example, 
overall risk capital*2 has been selected as an indicator for 
risk appetite, which displays the soundness of SMBC Group. 

Overall risk capital is the aggregate of the risk capital amounts 

for each risk category. Management standards have been set 

management, and discussion by the Risk Management 

Committee and the Management Committee. Top Risks are 

utilized to enhance risk management by being incorporated 

into discussions of the Risk Appetite Framework and the 

formulation of business strategies and into the creation of risk 

scenarios for stress testing.

Response to
the COVID-19
Pandemic

S MBC Group has considered pandemics as one of Top Risks. In response to the COVID-19 

pandemic, we quickly recognized the increase in liquidity risk with the framework which 

we were regularly utilizing to detect a sign of change.

Accordingly, we held Extraordinary ALM committee and closely shared the related 

information among the relevant divisions. After various verifications, we enacted a policy of 
meeting the customers funding needs as much as we can.

Furthermore, stress testing was used to quantitatively assess the adequacy of capital 

and liquidity levels based on the potential for the prolongation of the pandemic. It was thereby 
reaffirmed that the Group is able to guarantee financial soundness even under high-stress 
circumstances.

Meanwhile, the trend toward teleworking and other changes in workstyles prompted by 
the pandemic bring with them concern for cyber attack risks. We are combating these risks by 
strengthening security precautions and implementing measures that thoroughly enforce key 
information management considerations.

Various measures are carried out after such verifications and countermeasures are 

discussed by Executive Committee and Risk Committee.

and risk management as a key issue in enabling 
SMBC Group to fulfill its public mission and social 
responsibilities as a global financial group. We are 
therefore working to entrench such practices into our 
operations as we aim to become a truly outstanding

Compliance Management
SMBC Group seeks to maintain a compliance system that 

provides appropriate instructions, guidance, and monitoring 

for compliance to ensure sound and proper business 

operations on a group-wide and global basis. Measures have 

been put in place to prevent misconduct and quickly detect 

inappropriate activities that have occurred to implement 

corrective measures.

SMBC Group has established the Compliance 

Committee, which is chaired by the Group CCO responsible 

for overseeing matters related to compliance. This committee 

comprehensively examines and discusses SMBC Group’s 

various work processes from the perspective of compliance.

In addition, SMBC Group formulated the Group 

Compliance Program to provide a concrete action plan for 

practicing compliance from the perspective of group-based 

management. SMBC and other Group companies develop 

their own compliance programs based on the Group program 

and take necessary steps to effectively install compliance 

frameworks.

The Company receives consultations and reports 

on compliance-related matters from Group companies, 

providing suggestions and guidance as necessary to ensure 

compliance throughout the Group.

From the perspective of global-based management, 

compliance departments for major overseas offices have 

been reorganized within the Compliance Unit, which 

facilitated to develop an integrated group-based compliance 

management framework for overseas offices.

 Human Resource Medium-Term Management Plan

To establish a robust platform to realize SMBC Group’s medium- to 
long-term vision, we have established the Human Resource Medium-
Term Management Plan, with the following three pillars.

(1) Resource Management
Strategic Allotment of Human Resources across Group Companies 
and Divisions 

(2) Seamless Platform
Realization of True Diversity and Inclusion

(3) Employee Engagement
Measures to Enable All Employees to Fully Exercise Their Potential

(1) Resource Management
Strategic Allotment of Human Resources across Group Companies 
and Divisions 
SMBC Group promotes business transformation and the streamlining 
of its business processes through business model reforms, branch 
reorganizations, and group-wide integration of operations. At the 
same time, we will be more proactive in reallocating human resources 
on a group-wide basis to strategic fields and areas as designated in 
the seven key strategies of the new Medium-Term Management Plan. 
By realizing efficient operations and proactive human resource 

management across Group companies, we aim to reduce the 
quantity of work to enable natural attrition of domestic workforce by 
6,500 people over the new Medium-Term Management Plan period, 
an increase from the reduction of 4,900 people achieved in the 
previous Medium-Term Management Plan.

(2) Seamless Platform
Realization of True Diversity and Inclusion
We aim to alleviate the “seven disparities” to enhance optimal 
allotment of human resources across Group companies and divisions.

Our Approach
One overarching social trend is the change in relationship 
between companies and employees and there are more 
alterations and diversifications in employees’ attitudes toward 
work.
SMBC Group has approximately 100,000 employees around 
the world. We aim to improve both employee motivation and 
corporate productivity in order to effectively implement the 
Group’s management strategies.
We envisage to be a bank with the best talent pool by fostering 
talent capable of continuous growth and encouraging 
employees to tackle ambitious challenges.

Corporate Infrastructure Supporting Value Creation1. Entity Disparity
Group-Wide Human Resources Strategy Based on Business Necessities
SMBC Group is establishing frameworks to accelerate inter-
Group company secondments, enhance coordination in 
recruiting activities, and establish human resource systems 
to facilitate Group collaborations.

In addition, we intend to cater to business necessities 
across entities through the use of human resource systems. 
Such necessities include realization of better coordination 
between SMBC, SMBC Nikko Securities, and SMBC Trust 
Bank to promote “SMBC Private Wealth” business targeted 
for high-net-worth customers, and the integration of head 
office functions of Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company and 
SMBC Consumer Finance, both responsible for our payment 
service business.

2. Skill Set Disparity
Reeducation Opportunities to Support New Challenges
SMBC Group encourages employees to take part in 
spontaneous learning opportunities, such as voluntary 
applications and career planning programs, through 
proactive disclosure of information related to human resource 
measures.

Furthermore, we are expanding training prior to 

assuming new positions and enhancing follow-up frameworks 
to support employees pursuing new challenges across Group 
companies or divisions, regardless of their current position or 
employee category.

Revision of HR Management Framework
Amid rising demand for motivation, environments conducive 
to growth, and social meaningfulness for the Company, we 
revised our HR Management Framework in January 2020 
with the new slogan, “Be a Challenger”. The new framework is 
intended to enable and encourage our employees to work more 
energetically and maximize their performance.

    Integration of Employee Categories
Employee categories have been integrated to allow employees to 
assume higher responsibilities based on their ambitions and skills.

 Integration of Job Bands

Job bands have been integrated to enable fairer evaluations and 
compensation based on levels of contributions, and to realize 
early promotions by decoupling them from seniority.
     Extension of Retirement Age 
The retirement age has been extended to 65. Furthermore, 
the evaluation framework has been revised and the voluntary 
application system has been expanded to allow employees to 
tackle diverse challenges on a life-long basis.

3. Age Disparity
Create an Environment which Allows Employees to Tackle Challenges 
and Succeed, Regardless of Age or Seniority
We envisage to promote individuals to senior positions, such 
as executive positions at Group companies, regardless of age 
or length of career, as evidenced in SMBC CLOUDSIGN Inc.’s 
case where the president assumed the position in his 30s. At 
the same time, we encourage and support senior employees 
to contribute continuously, by offering recurrent training 
and establishing a dual career support system that provides 
flexible work options for employees older than 60.

4. Recruitment Disparity
Focus on Mid-Career Hiring
As our business domains change, we are enhancing mid-
career hiring to acquire talent with diverse skills and 
backgrounds. In this regard, we have substantially expanded 
the business areas and positions for mid-career individuals 
in order to recruit diverse talent including candidates for 
management positions. Furthermore, we are enhancing 
support provided to mid-career hires by both the Human 
Resources Department and the assigned departments, to 
ensure early settlement and active contributions.

5. Gender Disparity
Enhancement of Diversity at Decision-Making Levels
SMBC Group is devoting efforts to fostering female 
management candidates by increasing hiring of women and 
offering them strategic career development support shortly 
after they join the organization. To ensure appointments and 
promotions are determined based on individuals’ skills and 
competencies, unconscious bias training has been made 
compulsory for management and members of the Human 
Resources Department.

Furthermore, in support of the LGBT community and 

other sexual minorities, we are offering employee education 
and supporting the development of networks of sexual 
minority allies* through aid and donations for external events.

other sexual minorities, despite not belonging to such a group himself/herself, and who

6. Location of Hire Disparity
Establishment of Talent Development and Management Frameworks to 
Support Growing Overseas Businesses
SMBC Group advances its operations in more than 40 
countries and regions worldwide, and these overseas 
businesses are driving the growth of the Group. To support 
these businesses, we are developing talent management 
frameworks to enable optimal assignments and promotions, 
regardless of their location of hire. Based on the SMBC 
Global Management Competency model, we established 
standardized talent review framework. We are also developing 
a database to enable centralized management of talent 
information on overseas employees.

For talent development, we offer various training 

programs for employees from offices around the globe, 
including leadership training for management-level 
employees delivered in partnership with The Wharton School 
of the University of Pennsylvania in the United States. Another 
area of focus is personnel exchanges, promoted through 
programs such as the Global Japan Program, under which, 
employees from overseas offices are assigned to departments 
in Japan for up to one year. Approximately 1,700 employees 
have participated in these programs to date.

7. Workstyle and Lifestyle Disparity
Fostering of Workplaces That Allows Diverse Workstyles to Realize 
Maximum Performance
SMBC Group is enhancing training programs and support 
frameworks to foster corporate cultures supportive of all 
employees’ willingness to work, regardless of their physical 
or mental restrictions due to life events (marriage, childcare, 
nursing care, etc.) or illness or disability. 
• Workstyle Reforms
We are actively adopting systems that allow for flexibility in 
working hours and work locations, such as flextime, staggered 
working hours, and telework systems. Infrastructure to enable 
these systems, such as teleworking terminals and satellite 
offices, is also being put in place.

Furthermore, to prevent excessive working hours, we 
are introducing monitoring and interval systems to ensure 
due compliance with relevant laws and improve working 

096    SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020

environments. Working hour-related targets have been set for 
paid leave acquisition rates (target of 85% in FY2025) and for 
work efficiency through the implementation of robotic process 
automation.
• Health and Productivity Management
To ensure our employees’ physical and mental health, we are 
maintaining good work environments by offering stress checks, 
preventive measures for mental health, support for employees 
returning from long absence, and consultation desks. To 
enhance health awareness, we also offer reimbursement for 
expenses associated with quitting smoking and encourage the 
taking of regular health examinations.

In addition, Group companies have formulated a 

“Statement on Health Management” and are accelerating their 
initiatives under the leadership of the Chief Health Officer.

Diversity and Inclusion Initiatives
Workplace Environment Development Aimed at Encouraging Efforts of a 
Diverse Workforce
SMBC Group is promoting “Diversity and Inclusion” as a growth 
strategy itself. The Group has formulated its “Diversity and 
Inclusion Statement” as a core philosophy to promote initiatives 
to encourage active contributions of a diverse workforce, 
establishing a work environment that enables all employees 
to fully exercise their capabilities and skills. Under the new 
Medium-Term Management Plan, we aim to alleviate the 
aforementioned seven disparities in order to truly realize the 
spirit of diversity and inclusion.
To accelerate diversity and inclusion initiatives through a 
concerted group-wide effort, SMBC Group has established 
the SMFG Diversity and Inclusion Department, holding regular 
discussions at meetings of the Board of Directors and the 
Management Committee. Furthermore, we are regularly hosting 
the SMFG Diversity and Inclusion Committee, chaired by the 
Group CEO.

Corporate Infrastructure Supporting Value Creation(3) Employee Engagement
Measures to Enable All Employees to Fully Exercise Their Potential

1. Talent Development Strategy
SMBC Group has established the SMFG Learning and 
Development Institute to spearhead its group-wide talent 
development activities, in addition to developmental 
initiatives each Group company is advancing based on 
respective business environments. The Learning and 
Development Institute implements development programs 
for cultivating group-wide perspectives and fostering a 
sense of solidarity. Meanwhile, we are actively implementing 
joint programs with graduate schools and cross-Group job 
rotations to develop management candidates. Furthermore, 
we have established the “Digital University” and are 
expanding its range of courses to foster planning and 
development capabilities for transforming businesses with 
digital technologies.

SMBC, the core subsidiary of SMFG, is advancing the 

following initiatives.
• Human Resources Vision
SMBC has formulated its Human Resources Vision to serve as 
a long-term strategy for human resource development amid 
a volatile competitive climate. It is also shifting from Human 
Resources Department-driven development models to more 
business-oriented, self-controlled development models that 
support the growth of individuals based on self-disciplined 
tasks. SMBC supports the challenges of its employees, 
regardless of position or seniority.
• Enhancement of Experiential Learning 
SMBC is taking steps to enhance on-the-job training. Such 
steps include frameworks through which new employees 
receive guidance from more experienced employees 
(“anchor” system) along with one-on-one feedback. For 
management, we offer SMBC Management Review, a multi-
source feedback, to enable development through enhanced 
self-recognition.
• Self-Disciplined Career Support
Voluntary application systems for training, jobs, and posts 
are provided as frameworks for supporting self-driven career 
development and to enhance specialized skills. In addition, 
the annual SMBC Job Forum provides a platform to gain 
understanding of the business of each department, thereby 
enhancing the effectiveness of voluntary application systems.
Voluntary application systems are also available for 
dispatches to domestic and overseas graduate schools and 
other external educational institutions. Furthermore, SMBC 
has introduced a system that allows employees to take leave 

to attend graduate schools (career planning leave system) 
and a system that offers financial support for paying tuition 
fees for employees attending graduate schools or seeking 
to acquire qualifications while continuing to work normally 
(career planning support system),

2. Corporate Culture
SMBC Group seeks to foster a sense of emotional safety in 
its corporate culture that allows employees to be frank and 
genuine in communication. For this reason, we have a free 
dress code, enabling employees to wear what they please 
to work, and encourage employees to refer to each other 
without titles. In addition, we are examining the possibility of 
introducing an internal social media service as a digital tool 
for transmitting information about individuals, management, 
and organizations to better link people and organizations.

Meanwhile, engagement surveys are instituted to track 

levels of employee engagement and facilitate self-driven 
improvements by organizations. Employee awareness surveys 
are also conducted to develop an understanding of the levels of 
desire for coordination and solidarity among Group employees. 
These surveys have found that the average level of satisfaction 
among employees is at the high level of around 70%.

Engagement survey (wevox)

3. Concentration on Appealing Work
Drastic and continuous improvements to the efficiency of 
routine tasks are being pursued to heighten productivity 
and to create an environment that gives rise to appealing 
work and allows employees to concentrate on performing 
high-value-added work. In addition to promoting robotic 
process automation, instituting paperless work practices and 
drastically revising meeting procedures, we are soliciting and 
implementing work-streamlining ideas from the perspectives 
of employees.

Furthermore, competitions in which employees can 
volunteer to participate and present their ideas are being held 
at various companies as divisions investigate possible new 
business models.

IT Strategies

Our Approach
Currently, the operating environment is trending toward 
hybrid solutions, whether it comes to the maturing 
domestic market or growing overseas markets, the 
expansion of opportunities to utilize digital technologies, 
the reinforcement of security measures, the need for digital 
innovation and digital transformations, the importance of 
existing IT fields that now represent a majority of sales, 
or system ownership and use. In this environment, we 
will advance IT strategies with a focus on supporting both 
management and operations.

IT Investment Strategies
Under the new Medium-Term Management Plan, the budget 
for IT investments was increased to ¥500.0 billion, a rise 
from the ¥440.0 billion budget under the previous Medium-
Term Management Plan, with the aim of fueling future 
growth. By effectively controlling investments in existing IT 
areas via efficient management, we will secure a significantly 
larger budget for strategic investments in areas such as 
digitalization. Specifically, we have secured a CEO budget 
of ¥100.0 billion to be used for flexible investments in 
areas in which the Group CEO expects growth in the future. 
With this budget, SMBC Group will promote digitalization, 
reinforce management foundations, and implement business 
strategies.

customers through digitalization. In addition, the Digital 
Strategy Department and the Corporate Digital Solution 
Department have been set up within the Digital Solution 
Division. The Digital Strategy Department is responsible for 
the allocation of digital technology-related budget resources, 
the drafting and implementation of digitalization strategies, 
and the development of new businesses. Meanwhile, the 
Corporate Digital Solution Department is tasked with the 
co-creation of businesses with major companies and the 
planning and implementation of digital solutions.

Reformation and Reconstruction of Core Infrastructure 
Supporting Future Businesses
SMBC Group is developing core infrastructure with an eye 
toward the next decade based on the three perspectives 
of flexibility, sustainability, and efficiency with the aim 
of adapting to the medium- to long-term changes in the 
business environment and in customer needs.

1 Flexibility

Development of foundations for connectivity with external and internal 
systems to allow for the adjustment and augmentation of flexible functions

2 Sustainability

Taking of precautions for avoiding development of systems with overly 
complicated structures and excessive customization

3 Efficiency

Examination of measures for streamlining system structures and 
standardizing systems within the Group

Development of Human Resources for Supporting 
Sustainable Growth in a Digital Society
Accelerating digitalization at SMBC Group and contributing 
to customers and society require all employees, not just those 
in divisions dedicated to IT, to possess a digital-oriented 
mindset and basic IT knowledge. At SMBC Group, the Digital 
University has been established within core IT Group company 
The Japan Research Institute, Limited, as an internal training 
institution for promoting IT adoption and digitalization. The 
Digital University provides training for all employees on digital 
IT literacy and on IT adoption measures applicable to actual 
work.

We are also devoted to fostering human resources with 
specialized skills. For this purpose, we offer a unique menu of 
training programs including training based on the operations 
of specific Group companies, curricula employing the 
expertise gained from project case studies, and cutting-edge 
technology workshops.

Cyber Security
Cyber attacks are becoming ever-more serious and 
sophisticated. In order to respond to the risks of such attacks, 
SMBC Group has strengthened cyber security measures by 
defining cyber risks as one of its Top Risks and, establishing a 
Declaration of Cyber Security Management.

Seeking to facilitate management-led measures for 

fortifying response frameworks, the general manager of the 
System Security Planning Department has been appointed 
as the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). Positioned 
under the Group CIO and the Group Chief Risk Officer (CRO), 

SMBC Group’s Cyber Security Governance System

the CISO has professional expertise regarding measures 
in this area, and steps have been taken to clarify the roles 
and responsibilities of the CISO. Furthermore, we have 
established a computer security incident response team 
(CSIRT) and a security operation center (SOC), and analyses 
are performed on information regarding threats and observed 
cases collected from inside and outside of the Group. The 
results of these analyses, along with information on the status 
of security measures currently being implemented, are 
discussed regularly at meetings of the Board of Directors and 
the Management Committee to drive ongoing improvements 
to our cyber security measures.

The CSIRT is centered on the System Security Planning 

Department, which possesses dedicated cyber security 
functions. To ensure preparedness for cyber incidents, the 
CSIRT coordinates with national government agencies as well 
as with the U.S. Financial Services Information Sharing and 
Analysis Center (FS-ISAC),*1 Financials ISAC Japan (Financials 
ISAC),*2 and other external institutions to share information 
on pertinent topics such as cyber attack methods and 
vulnerabilities.

The SOC, which is centered around The Japan Research 
Institute, is dedicated to continuously fortifying cyber security 
monitoring systems to mitigate the ever-rising threat of cyber 
attacks. Measures taken by SOC include the integration 
of the monitoring systems of Group companies and the 
development of global systems for conducting monitoring on 
a 24-hours-a-day, 365-days-a-year basis.

As a result, consolidated net business profit 

decreased by ¥107.2 billion year-on-year to ¥1,085.0

the COVID-19 pandemic, it reached the same level as 

FY2018.

Profit Attributable to Owners of Parent
Total credit cost increased by ¥60.4 billion year-on-year 

to ¥170.6 billion, due to the absence of gains on reversal 

of reserves for large obligors recorded in FY2018 and the 

record of reserve for possible loan losses arising from the 

COVID-19 pandemic.

As a result, ordinary profit decreased by ¥203.2 

billion year-on-year to ¥932.1 billion.

In addition, profit attributable to owners of parent 

decreased by ¥22.8 billion year-on-year to ¥703.9 

billion, because impairment losses on goodwill of SMBC 

Trust Bank Ltd.’s business, PRESTIA, were recognized, 

whereas the absence of tax costs at Sumitomo Mitsui

Domestic Loan-to-Deposit Spread (SMBC non-consolidated)

In FY2019, domestic loan-to-deposit spread decreased by 

0.03% year-on-year to 0.91% primarily as a result of a decline 

of loan spreads. After the second quarter, the decrease in 

domestic loan-to-deposit spread has been limited to 0.01%, 

and this downward trend appears to be bottoming out.

has over the past 100 years been supported 
by many clients and we have grown together

  Since  October  2009,  when  we  joined

Risk Management

Risk Management Categories
SMBC Group defines the following risk management categories and conducts management of these risks accordingly.

Group companies manage risk in accordance with the characteristics of their particular businesses. These risk categories are continuously 

reviewed and new ones may be added in response to changes in the operating environment.

Credit risk

Market risk

Liquidity risk

Risk Category

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.

Department in Charge

Credit & Investment 
Planning Department

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.

Corporate Risk 
Management Department

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.

Corporate Risk 
Management Department

Operational risk

Conduct risk

Operational risk is the possibility of losses arising from inadequate or failed internal  
processes, people, and systems or from external events (see page 123 for information  
on risk categories and the departments in charge).

SMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020 
Stress Testing
SMBC Group conducts stress testing for each category of risks 

as well as stress testing used to verify the overall soundness of 

comprehensive risk management practices. The level of soundness 

used for verifications is determined based on risk appetite com-

bined with consideration for the severity of the scenario anticipated.

  When  evaluating  group-wide  soundness,  evaluations  are 

made using the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated 

statements of income, which include data from affiliates, with the 

goal of identifying major risks to our business and asset portfolio. 

Specifically, scenarios are selected based on the aforementioned 

severity level as well as background conditions that cover all areas 

In this manner, stress testing processes often require a variety 

of expertise. When selecting the background conditions for scenar-

ios, expertise regarding macroeconomic conditions and geopolitical 

risks is required. When selecting methodologies, insight into the 

statistical and other mathematical analysis techniques is crucial. 

When calculating impacts on SMBC Group as a whole, insight into 

SMBC Group and the businesses of its customers must be used. 

Stress testing processes will thus be based on discussions and 

opinions of directors, members of upper management, specialists, 

and representatives from relevant organizations and records will 

be created of these discussions and opinions in order to ensure 

objectivity, transparency, and reproducibility. In this way, measures 

in which we may face risks (e.g. an outlook encompassing the entire 

for practicing proper governance of stress testing will be applied.

world). We also employ methodology for ensuring scenarios can 

be accurately reflected and for incorporating business and portfolio 

characteristics.

Commonly used statistical methods are utilized in developing 

such methodologies. However, as it is necessary to estimate out-

liers, we may choose the methodology that best recreates outliers 

rather  than  the  methodology  that  offers  the  highest  statistical 

accuracy. When projecting scenarios for which there are no prior 

examples, human judgment may be given greater weight than the 

results of estimates.

■ Stress Testing Process

(1) Scenario Design

Scenarios are designed by the Corporate Risk Management Department after compil-
ing information on SMBC Group’s Top Risks and the views of related departments 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.

1. Basic Approach to Credit Risk Management

(1) Characteristics of Credit Risk
Credit risk is characterized by 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 transac-

tions) to lose value or become worthless.

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

by SMBC Group to assess and manage credit risk on a group-wide 

basis and further raise the level of accuracy and comprehensive-

ness 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 SMBC Group 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.

lations, including the Group credit policies, manages non-performing 

loans (NPLs), and performs other aspects of credit portfolio manage-

ment. We have also established the Credit Risk Committee to serve 

as a body for deliberating on matters related to group-wide credit 

portfolios.

At  SMBC,  the  core  bank  of  SMBC  Group,  the  Credit  & 

Investment Planning Department within the Risk Management Unit 

furnishes the credit risk management system and is thus responsible 

for the comprehensive management of credit risk. This department 

drafts and administers credit policies, the internal rating system, 

credit authority guidelines, and credit application guidelines, and 

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 department in charge, in cooperation with branches, 

conducts credit risk assessments and manages credit portfolios 

within each credit department’s jurisdiction. 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 handling 

NPLs of borrowers classified as potentially bankrupt or lower, and

3. Credit Risk Management Methods

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.

The Compliance Unit has in place a system of coordinating 

to establish systems for providing explanations to customers and 

develop information management practices for the purpose of cus-

tomer protection and to prevent transactions with antisocial forces, 

among other tasks.

The Internal Audit Unit, operating independently of the business 

units,  audits  asset  quality,  the  accuracy  of  gradings  and  self- 

assessment, and the state of credit risk management, and reports 

the results directly to the Audit and Supervisory Committee and the 

Management Committee.

SMBC has established the Credit Risk Committee as a con-

sultative body to round out its oversight system for undertaking 

flexible and efficient control of credit risks, and ensuring the overall 

soundness of the bank’s loan operations.

■SMBC’s Domestic Obligor Grading System

Obligor Grade

Definition

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

loans as well as the credit portfolio as a whole, we first acknowl-

edge 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 obli-

gor’s financial statements. The financial grade is then adjusted taking 

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

qualitative factors to derive the obligor grade. In the event that the 

borrower is domiciled overseas, internal ratings for credit are made 

after taking into consideration country rank, which represents an 

assessment of the credit quality of each country, based on its polit-

ical and economic situation as well as its current account balance 

and external debt. The borrower categories used in self-assessment 

are consistent with the obligor grade categories.

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 

SMBC Group, are shown below. As part of our overall measures 

to strengthen credit risk management throughout SMBC Group, all 

consolidated subsidiaries use substantially the same standards as 

SMBC for write-offs and provisions.

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.

Forward-Looking Provisions

SMBC records general reserves in amounts deemed necessary 
through comprehensive judgments to prepare for future losses 
in accordance with forecasts for specific portfolios with a high 
likelihood of occurrence and that cannot be reflected in past 
performance or in the borrower categories of specific companies 
based on recent operating environment and risk trends.

SMBC Group manages market risk by controlling amounts of value

at risk (VaR), losses, and risk capital based on consideration for 

Management

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

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

market value of financial products, leading to a loss.

Liquidity risk is defined as the uncertainty around the ability of the 

firm to meet debt obligations without incurring unacceptably large 

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

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

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

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

settlement.

(2)  Fundamental Principles for Market and Liquidity 

Risk Management

SMBC Group is working to further enhance the effectiveness of 

its quantitative management of market and liquidity risks across 

the  entire  Group  by  setting  allowable  risk  limits;  ensuring  the 

the Group’s shareholders’ equity and other principal indicators of 

the Group’s financial position and management resources and for 

business policies pertaining to market transactions.

  Market  risk  can  be  divided  into  various  factors:  foreign 

exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, and option risks. 

SMBC Group 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.

Trading activities are market operations that gain profits by 

taking advantage of fluctuations of market prices in the short term 

or price differences among markets. We assess and manage the 

market risk of trading activities on a daily basis by utilizing VaR and 

other tools. Banking activities are market operations which gain 

profits by controlling interest rates and term period for assets (loans, 

bonds, etc.) and liabilities (deposits, etc.). In the same way as in the

b. Validity verification process

i Outline of validity verification

SMBC Group uses back-testing as a method for verification of 

the validity of the internal model. VaR figures calculated by the 

internal model are compared with actual portfolio profit-and-loss 

figures on a given day to compute an appropriate VaR level and 

confirm the adequacy of risk capital management.

ii Back-testing results 

Information on back-testing of trading in fiscal 2019 can be found 

on page 307.

c. Indicators substitute for the back-testing method

SMBC Group employs, as a method substitute for the back-testing 

method, the VaR wherein presumptions for the model, such as 

observation periods, change.

d. Changes in model from fiscal 2018

There have been no changes in the model from fiscal 2018.

(c) Stress Testing

The  market  occasionally  undergoes  extreme  fluctuations  that 

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

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

cial markets (stress testing). SMBC Group conducts stress tests 

regularly, assuming various scenarios, and has measures in place 

for irregular events.

a new five-year reduction plan was launched on March 31, 2020, 

to promote ongoing reductions. Under this new plan, we will seek 

to reduce the balance of stocks held for strategic purposes* by 

¥300.0 billion.

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

The Group’s liquidity risk management is based on a framework 

consisting of setting Risk Appetite Measures and establishing con-

tingency plans.

The Risk Appetite Measures are measures for selecting the types 

and levels of risk that we are willing to take on or tolerate. As the level 

of liquidity risk is evaluated based on cash flow and balance sheet 

conditions, Risk Appetite Measures have been set for both of these 

areas. These measures include Liquidity Coverage Ratio, a liquid-

ity regulation; periods set for which it will be possible to maintain

Furthermore, contingency plans are established in preparation 

for emergency situations. These plans contain information on chains 

of command and lines of reporting as well as detailed action plans 

depending on the existing situation (i.e., normal, concerned, or criti-

cal). Meanwhile, SMBC carries out quantitative management of alert

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

established by Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Group companies 

have developed an operational risk management system.

At  Sumitomo  Mitsui  Financial  Group,  the  Management 

Committee makes decisions on basic policies for operational risk 

management, and these decisions are authorized by the Board of 

Directors. In addition, the Corporate Risk Management Department

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

internal processes, people, and systems or from external events. 

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

system risk, covers legal risk, human resources risk, reputational 

risk, and tangible asset risk, and third party 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 pro-

cess management.

together with departments responsible for the subcategories such 

as processing risks and system risks to establish a system for 

comprehensively managing operational risks.

As a brief overview, this system operates by collecting and 

analyzing internal loss data and Key Risk Indicators (KRI) from 

Group companies. In addition, the system entails comprehen-

sively 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

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

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

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

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

to check whether material operational risks have been overlooked, 

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

To this end, it is necessary to be able to quantify risks using a 

measurement methodology that can be applied to all types of oper-

ational risks and to comprehensively and comparatively capture the 

status of and changes in potential operational risks in business pro-

cesses. Also, from the viewpoint of internal control, the measure-

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, SMBC Group adopted the AMA set 

forth by the Basel Capital Accord for calculating the operational risk 

equivalent amount. The approach has been utilized for the manage-

ment of operational risks since then.

■ Basic Framework of Operational Risk Measurement

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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 

consolidated basis, SMBC consolidated basis, and SMBC non- 

consolidated basis. The operational 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 from earthquakes. However, in

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

by directors and employees, and from accidents or misconducts.

SMBC Group has clarified the divisions responsible for the over-

sight functions for processing risk management, and we are working 

to raise the level of sophistication of our management of processing 

risk across the whole Group on a risk basis by establishing systems 

for managing the processing risks faced by Group companies, 

ensuring in-office inspection, minimizing losses in the event of 

processing risk materialization by drafting exhaustive contingency 

plans, and carrying out thorough quantification of the risk under 

management as basic principles.

Basic policies for processing risk management are decided by 

the Management Committee and then approved by the Board of 

Directors. The status of processing risk management is reported to 

the Management Committee and the Board of Directors regularly 

and when necessary. These and other steps are taken to ensure 

that we can provide customers with high-quality services.

Based on the group-wide basic policies for risk management, 

Group companies promote appropriate operating practices by 

establishing operating rules and regulations, systematizing trans-

action processing, receiving guidance from business divisions, and 

inspecting conditions related to transaction processing.

5. System Risk Management
System risk is the risk arising from nonconformity to the business 

strategies, inappropriate technologies applied, changes to the 

development plan and delay in development when building an 

information system, and the risk of loss incurred due to system 

breakdown including those caused by cyber attack, malfunction, 

deficiency or unauthorized use (unauthorized alteration, destruction, 

duplication and leakage of information).

SMBC Group has set the following as basic principles: rec-

ognizing information systems as an essential part of management 

strategy taking into account advances in IT, minimizing system risk 

by updating policies and procedures, including a security policy and 

more sophisticated practical-application drills, which incorporate the 

fundamental elements* for cyber risk management by the financial 

sector released by the G7 Cyber Expert Group in October 2018. 

We will continue to reinforce response measures to cyber risks 

going forward, with specific plans including drills to prepare for 

instances of multiple simultaneous attacks.

In addition, we actively and openly incorporate various tech-

nological progress to improve convenience for customers, create 

new businesses, boost productivity and efficiency, and otherwise 

promote digitalization in a wide range of fields. The systems for 

managing the risks projected to arise from such activities are being 

strengthened on an ongoing basis in response to operating environ-

ment changes. As SMBC Group adopts artificial intelligence, cloud, 

robotic process automation, and application programing interface 

technologies, shared group-wide manuals have been prepared with 

regard to items requiring compliance at the time of introduction, 

technology-specific risks, and items for periodic monitoring. By 

entrenching an emphasis on security throughout the organization, 

we are working to reinforce group-wide IT governance.

SMBC operates its risk management system by conducting 

risk assessments based on the Security Guidelines published 

by the Center for Financial Industry Information Systems (FISC) 

and by enhancing safety measures based on the results of these 

assessments. System 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 trouble prevention, including maintenance to ensure 

stable and uninterrupted operation, duplication of various systems 

and infrastructure, and a disaster- prevention system consisting of 

data centers in eastern and western Japan. In addition, we are 

preparing for unforeseeable circumstances through the creation of 

contingency plans and the implementation of system failure drills. 

To maintain the confidentiality 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.

evaluates the conduct risk management system.

(2)  Fundamental Principles of Conduct Risk Management
SMBC Group’s fundamental stance is that its business is not  

to negatively affect customers, market integrity, effective compe-

tition, public interests, and stakeholders. Efforts are being made 

to improve group-wide conduct risk management. Focuses of 

these efforts include preemptively identifying phenomena with the 

potential to cause significant deterioration in the trust of the Group 

and preventing the materialization of serious management risks by 

being keenly responsive to environmental changes.

3. Conduct Risk Management Methodology
SMBC  Group  mitigates  and  controls  conduct  risk  by  having 

business units identify and assess the major risks present in 

their business and establish measures for controlling these risks 

using the risk register framework. Meanwhile, risk management 

departments verify the appropriateness of the risks identified and 

assessed by business units and their control measures based 

on the KRE and KRI. Through this process of verification, these 

departments maintain close communication with business units

conduct into its activities.

(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 to properly develop and select products.

  We will also help customers to find the ideal products and ser-

vices. Our first step in this process will be to learn about our custom-

ers, 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 custom-

er’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.

(2)  Easy-to-Understand Explanation of Important 

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
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group receives fees from customers for 

the products and services it provides out of consideration for the 

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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.

  SMBC Group aims to facilitate the shift from savings to asset 

holding seen in Japan through such initiatives.

Furthermore, we will periodically disclose information on initiatives 

by SMBC Group based on this policy with the aim of facilitating 

understanding regarding these initiatives among customers. In addi-

tion, 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.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc� and Subsidiaries

(Basis of presentation)

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (“the Company”) was established on December 2, 2002 as a holding company for the SMBC Group 

(“the Group”) through a statutory share transfer (kabushiki iten) of all of the outstanding equity securities of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking 

Corporation (“SMBC”) in exchange for the Company’s newly issued securities. The Company is a joint stock corporation with limited liability 

(Kabushiki Kaisha) incorporated under the Companies Act of Japan. Upon formation of the Company and completion of the statutory share 

transfer, SMBC became a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company 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 the Company’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, 2020 which was ¥108.81 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.

as of March 31. Other subsidiaries are consolidated using the financial statements as of their respective balance sheet dates.

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

consolidated closing date.

4.  Accounting policies

(1)  Standards for recognition and measurement of trading assets/liabilities and trading income/losses

Transactions for trading purposes (seeking gains arising from short-term changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, or market 
prices of securities and other market related indices or from variation among markets) are included in “Trading assets” or “Trading 
liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheets on a trade date basis. Profits and losses on trading-purpose transactions are recognized on a 
trade date basis, and recorded as “Trading income” and “Trading losses” 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 (based on straight-line method) using the moving-average method. Investments 
in 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” except for the amount reflected 

on the gains or losses by applying fair value hedge accounting.

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

(3)  Standards for recognition and measurement of derivative transactions

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

(4)  Depreciation

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

Buildings owned by the Company and SMBC, which is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, 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 the Company 
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.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(5)  Reserve for possible loan losses

The reserve for possible loan losses of major consolidated subsidiaries is provided as detailed below in accordance with the internal 
standards for write-offs and provisions.

For claims on borrowers that have entered into bankruptcy, special liquidation proceedings or similar legal proceedings (“Bankrupt 
borrowers”) or borrowers that are not legally or formally insolvent but are regarded as substantially in the same situation (“Effectively 
bankrupt borrowers”), a reserve is provided based on the amount of claims, after the write-off stated below, net of the expected amount 
of recoveries from collateral and guarantees. For claims on borrowers that are not currently bankrupt but are perceived to have a high 
risk of falling into bankruptcy (“Potentially bankrupt borrowers”), a reserve is provided in the amount deemed necessary based on an 
overall solvency assessment of the claims, net of the expected amount of recoveries from collateral and guarantees.

Discounted Cash Flows (“DCF”) method is used for claims on borrowers whose cash flows from collection of principals and interest 

can be rationally estimated, and SMBC, which is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, 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 primarily provided by setting the potential losses in the next one year or three years. The potential 
losses are calculated by determining the loss ratio based on the historical loan-loss ratio derived from actual loan losses or bankruptcies 
in the past one year or three years, or average (of a certain period) probability of bankruptcies, and by making necessary adjustments 
including future estimations.

In addition, in light of the latest economic situation and risk factors, for potential losses for specific portfolios that are based on the 

future prospects with high probability, but cannot be reflected in actual loan losses in the past and in any individual borrower’s 
classification, a reserve is provided in the amount deemed necessary based on an overall assessment. 

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 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, 2019 and 2020 were ¥139,981 million and ¥142,834 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 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.

(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.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(13) Employee retirement benefits

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

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

service period at incurrence.

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

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

(14) Translation of foreign currency assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities of the Company and SMBC, which is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company,  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, which is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, 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, which is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, 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, which is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, 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.

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.

(COVID-19)

The estimates of reserve for possible loan losses related to the increased impact of COVID-19 are reflected in the consolidated financial 
statements using the following method.

For potential losses related to individual borrowers due to deterioration in business performance and funding, a reserve for possible loan 

losses is provided by reviewing, as necessary, the borrower’s classification based on the most recent available information.

In addition, for potential losses for specific portfolios that are based on the future prospects with high probability, which cannot be reflected 

in any of individual borrower’s classification, a reserve is provided in the amount deemed necessary based on an overall assessment in light of 
impacts such as fluctuations in market indices including crude oil price due to factors such as COVID-19.

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.

As for land and building, etc., at SMBC, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, 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 land and 
buildings, etc. Assets such as corporate headquarters facilities, training facilities, data and system centers, and health and recreational 
facilities which do not produce cash flows that can be attributed to individual assets are treated as corporate assets. As for idle assets, 
impairment loss is measured individually. At other consolidated subsidiaries, a branch or other group is the smallest asset grouping unit as 
well.

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. 

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.

Assets for rent are grouped by type of freight cars. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of some of the 
freight cars were reduced to their recoverable amounts, and the decreased amounts were included in “Extraordinary losses” as “Losses on 
impairment of fixed assets,” as the invested amounts were considered not to be recoverable. The recoverable amount is measured by value 
in use, which is calculated by discounting future cash flows by 6%. 

 For goodwill and other intangible fixed assets, a consolidated subsidiary is the main unit of asset group. For the fiscal year ended March 

31, 2020, SMBC Trust Bank Ltd. reviewed its future cash flows in view of the current market environment. As a result, all of the 
unamortized balance of goodwill and other intangible fixed assets at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 were included in 
“Extraordinary losses” as “Losses on impairment of intangible fixed assets,” as the carrying amounts of the aforementioned assets associated 
with its PRESTIA business were considered not to be recoverable. The recoverable amount is measured by value in use, which is calculated 
by discounting future cash flows by 6%.

receivables and investment assets.”

Moreover, interest on such non-transfer ownership finance leases during the remaining term of the leases is allocated over the lease 

term using the straight-line method.

As a result of this accounting treatment, “Income before income taxes” for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 was ¥1,332

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
 
 
 
(Notes to financial instruments) 
1.  Status of financial instruments

(1)  Policies on financial instruments

The 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, the 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, the Company’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 (derivative 
transactions for both ALM and trading purposes are undertaken by the Asia and Oceania Treasury Dept. in Asia and Oceania region, and 
are undertaken by the East Asia Treasury Dept. in East Asia region).

(2)  Details of financial instruments and associated risks

1)  Financial assets

The main financial assets held by the 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 the Group 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 the 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 with special clause specifying that the repayment order of borrowing or bond subordinates to other borrowings 
or bonds. Also, financial liabilities, like financial assets, expose the Group to not only market risk but also funding liquidity risk: the 
risk of the Group not being able to raise funds due to market turmoil, deterioration in the Group’s 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 the 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 Comprehensive Risk Management.” 
The Company’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. Each Group company has a risk management system based on the characteristics of 
its particular businesses and in accordance with the basic policy. Furthermore, the Group CRO is established to assess risk management 
across the Group unitarily and implement appropriate risk management. The Company is sharing information on group-wide risk 
management and strengthening related systems through the Group CRO Committee, which consists of the Group CRO and risk 
management representatives from strategically important Group companies.

1)  Management of credit risk

The Company 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.

(a)  Credit risk management system

The Group CRO formulates credit risk management policies each year based on the group-wide basic policies for risk 
management. Meanwhile, the Credit & Investment Planning Dept. is responsible for the comprehensive management of credit 
risk. This department drafts and administers credit risk regulations, including the Group’s credit policies, and performs credit 
portfolio management including non-performing loans. The Company has also established the Credit Risk Committee to serve as 
a body for deliberating on matters related to group-wide credit portfolios.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsAt SMBC, the Company’s major consolidated subsidiary, 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. 
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 each business unit conduct credit risk management for loans handled by their units and manage 
their units’ portfolios. Credit approval authority is generally determined based on the credit amounts and internal grades, and the 
credit departments focus on analysis and management of customers and transactions with relatively high credit risk. The Credit 
Administration Dept. is mainly responsible for formulating and implementing measures to reduce the exposure of non-
performing loans. Through industrial and sector-specific surveys and studies of individual companies, the Corporate Research 
Dept. works to form an accurate idea of the circumstances of borrower companies and identify those with potentially troubled 
credit positions at early stage.

Moreover, the Credit Risk Committee, a cross-departmental consultative body, rounds out SMBC’s oversight systems for 

undertaking flexible and efficient control of credit risk and ensuring the overall soundness of SMBC’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 
Management Committee and the Audit Committee. 

(b)  Method of credit risk management

The Company 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 capital

To keep credit risk exposure to a permissible level relative to capital, the Company sets credit risk capital limit for internal 
control purposes. Under these limits, separate guidelines are issued for each business unit and marketing unit. The Company 
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 the Company’s capital 
significantly, the Company 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, the Company also has credit limit guidelines based on each country’s creditworthiness.

•  Greater understanding of actual corporate conditions and balancing returns and risks

The Company 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 cost) level.

•  Reduction and prevention of non-performing loans

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

In regard 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 regard 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 which the Company frequently conducts 
derivative transactions, measures such as a close-out netting provision, which provide offsetting credit exposures between two 
parties in 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

The Company 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.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(a)  Market and liquidity risk management systems

In accordance with the group-wide basic policies for risk management decided upon by the Management Committee, the 
Company determines important matters relating to the management of market and liquidity risks, such as basic policies and risk 
limits, in order to manage these risks. The ALM Committee meets four times a year, in principle, to report on the state of market 
and liquidity risk management and to discuss ALM operation policies. The Corporate Risk Management Dept., which is 
independent from the business units that directly handle market transactions, manages market and liquidity risks in an integrated 
manner. This department not only monitors the current risk situations but also reports regularly to the Management Committee 
and the Audit Committee. Furthermore, the ALM Committee at SMBC, the core bank of the Company, meets on a monthly basis 
to examine reports on the state of observance of limits on market and liquidity risks and to discuss ALM operation policies.
In addition, the Internal Audit Dept., 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 Audit Committee and other concerned committees and departments.

(b)  Market and liquidity risk management methodology

•  Market risk management

The Company 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.

The Company 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 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), the Company 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, the Company 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, the Company 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, 2020, total VaR of SMBC and its major consolidated subsidiaries was ¥50.5 billion for the banking activities, 
¥16.2 billion for the trading activities and ¥942.4 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

The Company manages liquidity risk based on the framework of “setting management levels of risk appetite indicators” and 
“developing contingency plans.” Risk appetite indicators are quantitative benchmarks that select the types and indicate the 
levels of risk that the Company is willing to take on or tolerate. As an example, the Company sets a lower limit on the number 
of days over which cash flows could be maintained under the stress conditions such as deposit outflow, so as to secure funding 
sources that do not fall below the benchmark to avoid excessive reliance on short term funding. In addition, the Company 
develops contingency plans consisting of instructions, reporting lines and action plans in case of emergency.

Moreover, to manage the liquidity risk of marketable instruments, derivative transactions, etc., the Company has trading 
limits for each business office classified by currency, instrument, transaction period, etc. As for financial futures, etc., risks are 
managed by restricting positions to within a certain percentage of open interest in the entire market.

(4)  Supplementary explanations about matters concerning fair value of financial instruments

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

*1 The amounts do not include general reserve for possible loan losses and specific reserve for possible loan losses. The reserves for possible losses on “Cash and due from banks,” 
“Call loans and bills bought,” “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 the Company 
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.

2020/08/21   16:48:11

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes 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. The fair values of borrowings from the trust account related to covered bond issued by the trust account are based 
on the amount calculated in accordance with the price quoted by industry associations, etc.
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. For certain type of instruments, however, fair values are based on either the 
amount calculated in accordance with the price quoted by industry associations, etc., or the present value of future cash flows 
calculated by using the rate derived from the published yield data, etc.
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.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements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, 2020
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, 2019 and 2020 were ¥9,013 million and ¥23,000 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
The Company’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.

The Group’s reportable segment is defined as an operating segment for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed by the

segment and assess its performance.

The businesses operated by each business unit are as follows;
Wholesale Business Unit:

International Business Unit: 
Global Markets Business Unit:  Business to deal with financial market
Head office account: 

Business other than businesses above

Business to deal with domestic medium-to-large-sized enterprise

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).” In case several business units cooperate for transactions, profit and loss, and expenses related to 
the transactions are recognized in the business units cooperating for the transactions and those amounts are calculated in accordance with 
internal managerial accounting policy.

The Company does not assess assets by business segments.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsIndependent Auditor’s Report

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

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (“the 
Company”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “the Group”), which comprise the consolidated 
balance sheets as at March 31, 2020 and 2019, the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, 
changes in net assets and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes, comprising a summary of significant 
accounting policies, other explanatory information. 

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the 

consolidated financial position of the Group as at March 31, 2020 and 2019, and its consolidated financial 
performance and cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in 
Japan.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan. Our responsibilities 
under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial 
Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that 
are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Japan, and we have fulfilled our other ethical 
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is 
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the 
consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of 
the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a 
separate opinion on these matters. 

Measurement of the reserve for possible loan losses

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

In the consolidated balance sheet of the Group as of 
March 31, 2020, reserve for possible loan losses (the 
“Reserve”) amounted to ¥301,752 million provided on 
loans and bills discounted (the “Loans”) of 
¥82,517,609 million (or approximately 37.5% of the 
total assets). Included in such balances were mainly 
corporate loans of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking 
Corporation (“SMBC”), a commercial banking 
subsidiary. 

The primary procedures we performed to assess the 
reasonableness of measurement of the Reserve for 
SMBC’s corporate loans included the following:

(1)  Internal control testing

We evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of 
certain internal controls over the provisioning process 
by focusing on controls that:
∙   approve the internal rules for accounting for the 

Reserve, including the criteria for self-assessment 
and the policy for write-offs and provisions;

∙   validate the obligor grading models;

010_0800801372008.indd   229

229

2020/08/21   16:48:13

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020SMBC assesses all claims including the Loans in 
accordance with the internal criteria for self-assessment 
of asset quality, and classifies borrowers into credit 
categories through examining individual credit risk 
profiles. On the basis of each borrower category, 
reserves and direct write-offs are recorded in 
accordance with its internal policy for write-offs and 
provisions. The methodologies used include an 
expected credit loss (ECL) model based on the 
historical loan-loss ratios or the probability of default, 
and a discounted cash flow (DCF) method. 
Additionally, considering recent economic 
environment and risk factors, an ECL amount deemed 
necessary for specific portfolios is reflected in the 
Reserve based on an overall assessment of a probable 
future outlook for those portfolios that has not been 
fully captured in the historical data or individual 
borrower classification. 

The evaluation of the Reserve for SMBC’s corporate 

loans involves significant measurement uncertainty, 
and therefore requires complex management judgment 
primarily in the following aspects:
∙   classifying borrowers into appropriate credit 

categories through performing obligor-specific 
qualitative assessment, including the use of forward-
looking information;

∙   deciding on whether changes to the borrower 

classification as well as additional provisions for 
specific portfolios are deemed necessary, and 
determining appropriate methodologies to measure 
such provisions, in light of recent economic 
environment and risk factors, specifically the 
potential impact of the spread of the COVID-19 and 
the coinciding fluctuations of market indices such as 
crude oil prices; and

∙   projecting future cash flow scenarios as an input to 
the DCF method for borrowers with large claims 
classified mainly as substandard or potentially 
bankrupt.

We, therefore, determined that the measurement of 
the Reserve for SMBC corporate loans; specifically, 
classifying borrowers into credit categories through 
qualitative assessment, reflecting recent economic 
environment and risk factors into the Reserve, and 
projection of cash flow scenarios used in the DCF 
method, was one of the most significant in our audit 
of the consolidated financial statements for this fiscal 
year, and accordingly, a key audit matter.

∙   relate to classification of individual borrowers into 
credit categories through qualitative assessment;
∙   reflect recent economic environment and risk factors 

into the Reserve; and

∙   relate to the projection of future cash flow scenarios 

used in the DCF method.

(2)   Evaluation of the appropriateness of the policy 
for provisions and the borrower classification 
model

We evaluated the policy for provisions for compliance 
with the accounting principles generally accepted in 
Japan. Additionally, we involved credit risk specialists 
with industry-specific knowledge and expertise who 
assisted us in evaluating the obligor grading models 
through analyzing the consistency of obligor grades 
with external ratings, and evaluating the default 
prediction capability of the models.

(3)   Evaluation of the appropriateness of borrower 
classification taking into account qualitative 
factors

For SMBC’s corporate borrowers that we selected based 
on certain criteria, we evaluated the appropriateness of 
borrower classification taking into account qualitative 
factors through analyzing the feasibility of their 
business plan and assessing their liquidity position.

(4)   Evaluation of the reasonableness of a provision 
that reflects the effect of recent economic 
environment and risk factors

In light of the recent economic environment and risk 
factors, specifically the potential impact of the spread 
of COVID-19 and the coinciding fluctuations of 
market indices such as crude oil price, we evaluated 
the reasonableness of changes to the borrower 
classification and of an additional provision for specific 
portfolios through:
∙   analyzing the liquidity position of borrowers affected 
by the COVID-19 and the related circumstances 
including their recent operating performance and 
request for loan modifications, and assessing the 
borrower classification on the basis of such analysis; 
and

∙   analyzing the scope of potential effects and assessing 
assumptions by inspecting available external reports 
on market indices including crude oil prices, and 
evaluating the methodologies used to measure an 
ECL for specific portfolios.

cash flow scenarios used in the DCF method

For borrowers that we selected based on certain criteria 
from those in scope of DCF method, we evaluated the 
reasonableness of future cash flow scenarios through 
analyzing their restructuring plans and related 
progress.

Measurement of the value-in-use of goodwill and other intangible assets related to the retail banking business of 
SMBC Trust Bank, Ltd.

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

In the consolidated balance sheet of the Group as of 
March 31, 2020, goodwill and other intangible fixed 
assets amounted to ¥194,289 million and ¥117,896 
million, respectively. The goodwill and other 
intangible fixed assets consisting of assets related to 
customers and core deposits (collectively, the 
“Intangible Assets”) recognized in connection with the 
acquisition of the retail banking business of Citibank 
Japan Ltd. (the “PRESTIA business”) by SMBC Trust 
bank Ltd, (“SMBC Trust Bank”) were impaired, and 
an impairment loss of ¥39,958 million for the entire 
amount of the Intangible Assets was recorded for the 
fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. 

While the Intangible Assets are amortized in a 
systematic manner, whenever there is an indicator that 
the carrying amounts of the Intangible Assets may not 
be recoverable, the Group needs to determine whether 
an impairment shall be recognized by comparing the 
undiscounted future cash flows to be generated from 
the business to which the Intangible Assets relate and 
its carrying amount. If it is determined that the 
recognition of an impairment loss is required, the 
carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount, 
with such reduction being recognized as an 
impairment loss. The recoverable amount of an asset 
group is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell 
and its value in use. 

The primary procedures we performed to evaluate the 
reasonableness of the measurement of the value in use 
related to the PRESTIA business of SMBC Trust Bank 
included the following. 

(1)  Internal control testing

We evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of 
certain internal controls over the process of calculating 
the value in use related to the PRESTIA business of 
SMBC Trust Bank by focusing controls that:
∙   evaluate the reasonableness of estimated future cash 

flows; and 

∙   evaluate the reasonableness of the discount rate. 

(2)   Evaluation of the appropriateness of valuation 
methodology used to calculate the value in use 

We involved valuation specialists with industry-
specific knowledge and expertise who assisted us in 
evaluating the reasonableness of valuation 
methodology used to calculate the value in use by 
comparing it to the standard methods commonly used 
for the valuation of retail banks. 

(3)   Evaluation of the reasonableness of future 

cash flows used to calculate the value in use

We assessed the level of precision of the prior year 
estimate of future cash flows by comparing it to the 
actual result. In addition, we evaluated the 
reasonableness of estimated future cash flows, 
considering the historical operating performance, the 
current market environment and economic trends 
including future prospect of the PRESTIA business of 
SMBC Trust Bank, and the regulatory environment.

discount rate used to calculate the value in use

We involved valuation specialists with industry-
specific knowledge and expertise who assisted us in 
evaluating the reasonableness of the valuation 
methodology used to calculate a discount rate and the 
calculation result, considering historical market data 
and current market conditions.

There was an indicator of impairment for the 
PRESTIA business of SMBC Trust Bank during the 
year ended March 31, 2020 due to the deterioration in 
its market environment. As a result of an impairment 
test, the recognition of an impairment loss was 
required. The value in use was used as the recoverable 
amount to measure an impairment loss on the 
Intangible Assets related to the PRESTIA business of 
SMBC Trust Bank. The value in use was calculated 
using the future cash flows based on the business plan 
approved by management and a discount rate.

The estimate of future cash flows inherently requires 

complex management judgments, and the discount 
rate may be significantly affected by market interest 
rates and other market conditions. Also, as SMBC 
Trust Bank has revised the estimated future cash flows 
considering the recent market environment, there was 
a higher degree of uncertainty in the estimates used 
for calculating the value in use.

We, therefore, determined that the measurement of 

the value in use related to the PRESTIA business of 
SMBC Trust Bank was one of the most significant in 
our audit of the consolidated financial statements for 
this fiscal year, and accordingly, a key audit matter.

Responsibilities of Management and the Audit Committee for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern in accordance with accounting 
principles generally accepted in Japan. 

The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the directors and the corporate executive officers’ performance 

of their duties including the design, implementation and maintenance of the Group’s financial reporting process. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are 
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our 
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in 
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan will always detect a material misstatement when it 
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, 
they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated 
financial statements. 

As part of our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan, we exercise professional 

judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

2020/08/21   16:48:13

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupIndependent Auditor’s Report∙   Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud 
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient 
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from 
fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, 
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

∙   Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are 

appropriate in the circumstances, while the objective of the audit is not to express an opinion on the effectiveness of 
the Group’s internal control. 

∙   Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related 

disclosures made by management. 

∙   Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the 

audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast 
significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty 
exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated 
financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the 
audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the 
Group to cease to continue as a going concern. 

∙   Evaluate whether the presentation and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements are in accordance with 

accounting standards generally accepted in Japan, the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated 
financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the 
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

∙   Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities 

within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the 
direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. 

We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the 
audit, significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our 
audit. 

We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements 

regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be 
thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. 

From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most 

significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit 
matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about 
the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our 
report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest 
benefits of such communication. 

Convenience Translation

The U.S. dollar amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements with respect to the year ended March 
31, 2020 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.

Interest required to be disclosed by the Certified Public Accountants Act of Japan 

We do not have any interest in the Group which is required to be disclosed pursuant to the provisions of the Certified 
Public Accountants Act of Japan.

Capital Ratio and Leverage Ratio Information (Consolidated)
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Regarding the calculation of the capital ratio and leverage ratio of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, an external audit was performed by 
KPMG AZSA LLC pursuant to the Technical Practical Guidelines 4465 “Practical Guidelines on Agreed-Upon Procedures for the Capital 
Ratio and Leverage Ratio Calculation Framework.” The aforementioned external audit was not meant to provide a statement of opinions or 
conclusions on the capital ratio and leverage ratio themselves, or our internal control framework for calculating these ratios, but to present us a 
report on the results of the procedure performed within the scope agreed upon between the external auditor and us. It constitutes neither part 
of the audit of consolidated financial statements nor part of the audit of our internal control over financial reporting.
“Consolidated Capital Ratio and Leverage 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: 174
  Please refer to “Principal Subsidiaries and Affiliates” on page 144 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 us 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 Ratio Information (Consolidated)
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), we have 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.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Basel III Information 
■ Credit Quality of Assets
1. Overview of Criteria for Accounting Provisions and Write-Offs

(1) Policies and Methods of Provisions and Write-Offs

For “Policies and Methods of Provisions and Write-Offs,” please refer to pages 116 to 120 (Risk Management - 3. Credit Risk Management 
Methods - (1) Credit Risk Assessment and Quantification, (4) Self-Assessment, Write-Offs and Provisions, Non-Performing Loans 
Disclosure).

(2)  Extent of the Number of Delinquency Days of “Past Due Loans of Three Months or More” that are Allowed Not to Classify Their Loan 
Category as “Doubtful Assets” or Below (or Not to Judge as Loans to Parties Classified as Potentially Bankrupt Borrowers or Below) and 
Reasons Thereof
At SMBC, as a core bank of SMBC Group, the delinquency period of past due loans of three months or more that are allowed not to 
classify loans as doubtful assets or below (or not to judge as loans to parties classified as potentially bankrupt borrowers or below) is 
generally less than six months, and they are loans to parties that are expected to improve business conditions. If there are any past due 
loans of six months or more, they shall be in principle classified as loans to potentially bankrupt borrowers or below.

(3) Definition of Loans Whose Loan Terms and Conditions were Restructured 

At SMBC, as a core bank of SMBC Group, loans whose loan terms and conditions were restructured are defined as loans with interest rate 
reduction, deferred payment of interest, deferred repayment of principal amount, abandonment of loans, or other arrangements that are 
advantageous for the obligors, for the purpose of business rehabilitation or support for the obligors. Obligors with loans whose loan 
terms  and  conditions  were  restructured  may  not  be  classified  as  doubtful  assets  or  below  depending  on  the  outlook  for  business 
conditions, financial statements and loan terms and conditions. If the borrower category deteriorates due to restructuring of loan terms 
and conditions, provisions will increase.

(4) Key Differences in Parameters of Credit Risks Used to Calculate Provisions and Capital Ratio, Respectively

SMBC, as a core bank of SMBC Group, uses Probability of Default and loan-loss ratio as parameters for calculation of provisions.
Probability of Default is calculated based on the actual performance in the past of the deterioration rate for one year from each borrower 
category  to  potentially  bankrupt  borrowers  or  below  (regarding  the  deterioration  rate  to  potentially  bankrupt  borrowers,  the 
deterioration transition rates equivalent to three accumulated years from potentially bankrupt borrowers to virtually bankrupt borrowers 
or below are included). For the PD used to calculate the capital ratio, deterioration to substandard borrowers or below is defined as 
default, and assuming a long-term average value of the default rate, conservative estimation for some portfolios is conducted, which is 
the major difference from the Probability of Default used to calculate provisions.
Loan-loss ratio is calculated using the loan-loss amount including direct write-offs and indirect write-offs incurred during the year for 
each borrower category to the amount of initial existing exposure by borrower category.
For details of parameters used to calculate the capital ratio, please refer to pages 261 to 262 “3. Overview of Internal Rating System (2) 
Parameter Estimation and Its Validation System.”

■ Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach
1. Background on Determining the Scope of Application of Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach

When the criteria of materiality defined by us according to business characteristics and business conditions, etc. are met, in principle, the 
IRB approach is adopted by the unit of our asset class or by the unit of the affiliated group companies. In addition, for the asset class or 
group companies that meet the quantitative criteria specified by the authorities, the IRB approach is in principle adopted regardless of 
whether the criteria of materiality are met.

For adopting the IRB approach, the Advanced Internal Ratings-Based (AIRB) approach is in principle adopted. However, for group 
companies which were judged unnecessary or inappropriate to adopt the AIRB approach in light of the scale, business contents, etc., the 
Foundation Internal Ratings-Based (FIRB) approach is adopted.

2. Scope

We 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, SMBC Trust Bank Ltd.

(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, SMBC Bank EU AG and PT Bank BTPN Tbk.

SMBC Finance Service Co., Ltd. has 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 standardised approach.

3. Overview of Internal Rating System

(1) Rating Procedures

(A) Corporate Exposures

• “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 pages 116 to 117). 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 following page 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.

• “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, 2020.
• 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 five categories 
(hereinafter the “slotting criteria”) of the Notification because it does not satisfy the requirements for PD application specified in 
the Notification.

(B) Retail Exposures

• “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 default risk determined using loan 
contract information, a borrower category under self-assessment in accordance with an exclusive grading model, and 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.

• “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.

• “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 default risk determined using 
loan contract information, a borrower category under self-assessment in accordance with an exclusive grading model, and 
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 “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.

(C) Equity Exposures

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

In the case it is difficult to obtain financial information and it is not a qualifying investment, the simple risk weight method 

under the market-based approach is applied.

(2) Parameter Estimation and Its Validation System

A. PD

This is defined as the probability that obligors could default over one year. PD is estimated as the expected value in the long term 
regardless of the business cycle using the default rate for each fiscal year based on the historical data for five consecutive fiscal years or 
more. In principle, the default rate for each fiscal year is measured by the initial number of target obligors as the numerator and the 
number of defaults occurred during the fiscal year as the denominator. 
For assets, ratings, and portfolios applicable to LDP (LDP: Low Default Portfolio),  conservative PD is estimated by creating virtual 
rating transition data based on Monte Carlo simulation and by using the floor value proposed under Basel Capital Accord.

The actual default rates in the past three periods are lower than PD estimate values applied for the respective periods for the most 

portfolios, because the long-term average value including the recession period is estimated, and also because the possibility of 
estimation errors is taken into account. 

Validation consists of two systems: “backtesting” to retrospectively compare and validate the parameter estimated value and the 

actual value for the respective applicable period, and “pretesting” to validate before applying the parameter for the purpose of 
complementing the “backtesting.” The overview for each is as follows.

(a) Backtesting

This is to compare the parameter estimated value with the actual value at least once a year, and to validate that the degree of 
divergence is within the statistically assumed range.

In case of hitting the predetermined excess criteria as a result of validation, reviews shall be taken including revising the 

estimation method or rating system.

(b) Pretesting

This is to compare and validate the estimated value to be applied and the historical value. In the case of hitting the predetermined 
excess criteria, the estimated value shall be conservatively corrected.

The purpose is to prevent underestimation by making adjustments, if necessary.

B. LGD

This is defined as the ratio of loss amounts after default to the amount of receivable at the time of default. LGD is estimated as a long-
term average value calculated based on historical data over seven consecutive fiscal years (for retail, five fiscal years) or more. However, 
in the case where a high positive correlation with the default rate is observed, LGD shall be in principle the value taking into account 
the possibility that the loss rate of the recession period will exceed the long-term average value, and it is estimated mainly by one of 
the following methods.
•  By taking into account the influence of the recession period on the interest rate to customers constituting the discount rate for 

calculating the economic loss to be used for estimation

•  By taking into account the influence of the recession period by modeling the relationship between the loss ratio and economic and 

financial indicators, etc. 

For the purpose of estimating LGD using economic loss based on requirement of Basel Capital Accord, discount rate is estimated 
with using recovery cost. The averaged period from the time of default and the termination of recovery is used as discount period.
As for validation, backtesting and pretesting are conducted as in the A. PD.

C. EAD

This is defined as the amount of exposure at the time of default. EAD is estimated as a long-term average value calculated based on 
the historical data over seven consecutive fiscal years (for retail, five fiscal years) or more. For estimation, the possibility that the 
default balance may exceed the latest balance is assumed and taken into account, and EAD is estimated by one of the following 
methods.
•  By estimating the conversion factor that is the ratio of actually drawn amount to the amount associated with undrawn commitments 

one year before the time of default

•  By estimating the conversion factor that is the ratio of the average outstandings of the default borrowers to the average outstandings 

of the non-default borrowers of the whole limit-type credit subject to the estimation

•  By estimating an increased amount by comparing the initial outstandings with ones at the time of default and taking the average 

for each segment

As for validation, backtesting and pretesting are conducted as in the A. PD.

Notes: 1.

IRB model presented in this table covers all models used within the scope of regulatory consolidation.

2. Applicable portfolios of each IRB model take into account the portfolio classification under Basel Capital Accord. “Corporates” include “Sovereign,” “Financial entities,” 

“Specialized lending,” “Equity (PD/LGD method)” and “Purchased receivables (corporates),” and “Residential mortgage” and “Other retail” include “Purchased receivables 
(retail).” Therefore, the same classifications are used in this table.

3. A maximum of ten categories of obligor rating in the internal rating system are consolidated into five categories as PD categories.
4. For the external ratings associated with, external ratings equivalent to the PD of non-Japanese companies mainly are listed in the columns of S&P, Moody’s, and Fitch, and 

external ratings equivalent to the PD of Japanese companies mainly are listed in the columns of R&I and JCR.

5. The number of obligors of “Qualifying revolving retail,” “Residential mortgage” and “Other retail” states the number of receivables.
6. The proportion of credit risk-weighted assets subject to the IRB approach is that “Corporates” accounts for 84.92 percent, “Qualifying revolving retail” accounts for 4.36 

percent, “Residential mortgage” accounts for 5.59 percent, and “Other retail” accounts for 3.47 percent.

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

Exposures under Article 145 of the Notification include investments 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 it is difficult to calculate the credit risk-weighted asset amount of individual 
underlying assets, the weighted average of the risk weight of individual underlying assets is calculated, where risk weight of 250%/ 400% is 
applied if the result of such calculation proved to be 250%/400% or less, while 1,250% is applied otherwise.

■ Standardised Approach
1. Scope

The following consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the standardised approach for exposures as of March 31, 2020 (i.e. consolidated
subsidiaries not listed in the “Internal Ratings-Based (IRB) Approach: 1. Scope” on page 259).

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

SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd. and SMBC Nikko Securities Inc.

(2) Consolidated Subsidiaries Planning to Adopt Phased Rollout of the FIRB Approach

Currently, there are no subsidiaries applicable.

(3) 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 standardised 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.

Note:  As the sum of the respective risk weight of the original obligor and the original obligee are applied for the risk weight for loan participation transactions by a bank adopting the 

SA, the credit RWA amount calculated by summing up the exposure amount multiplied by the corresponding risk weights in the above table does not match with the credit 
RWA amount shown in column e of CR4 (SA-CR exposure and CRM effects).

■ Credit Risk Mitigation (CRM) Techniques
1. Overview of Risk Characteristics, Risk Management Policy, Risk Management Procedures and Risk Management System 

In calculating credit risk-weighted asset amounts, We take 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 under 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 115 to 120). 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.

In addition, 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.

As credit risk mitigation techniques, eligible real estate collateral and guarantees have shown a certain effect.

■ Counterparty Credit Risk
1. Overview of Risk Characteristics

Counterparty credit risk is actualized when counterparties become default in a condition where derivative transactions, etc. have a positive 
value, and risks fluctuate according to the credit quality of counterparties and related market indicators.

2. Risk Management Policy and Procedures

(1) Risk Management Policy

For counterparty credit risks, credit limits are set according to the frameworks of credit management in each SMBC Group company. For 
transactions with CCP, credit risks are managed after validating the financial base and the default management process, etc.

(2) 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.

(3) 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.

■ Securitisation Transactions
1. Overview of Risk Characteristics

Securitisation 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 securitisa-
tion exposure due to a timing mismatch between the securitisation conduit’s receipt of the cash flows related to the underlying assets and 
payment of the securitisation 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.

2. Overview of Risk Management Policy and Procedures

Definition of securitisation 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 securitisation exposures to 
measuring, evaluating and reporting risks.

Securitisation 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 securitisation 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 resecuritisation transactions. 
Its policy is to conduct securitisation transactions by verifying effectiveness in mitigating credit risk through the use of the asset transfer 

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

The Group takes one of the following positions for securitisation 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)

as well as Names of Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies of us Which Hold Securitisation Exposures Related to Securitisation 
Transactions Conducted by us and we Engage in the Management of the Company or Provides Advice
In order to undertake securitisation transactions related to third-party assets, the Group mainly uses a special purpose company (SPC) as a 
securitisation conduit.
• Manhattan Asset Funding Company LLC
• Chelsea Capital Corporation
• Forest Corporation
• Spur Funding Corporation
• Deccan Funding GK
• Taeguk Funding Designated Activity Company

Excluding consolidated subsidiaries, subsidiaries or affiliated companies holding securitisation exposures related to the security transactions 
conducted by the Holding Company Group are as follows:
• THE MINATO BANK, LTD.
• The Japan Net Bank, Limited

4.  Name of Securitisation Conduit that Provides Non-Contractual Credit Enhancement, etc. and Impacts on Capital by Such Non-

Contractual Credit Enhancement, etc. for Each Securitisation Conduit
Not applicable.

5. Accounting Policy on Securitisation Transactions

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

6. Names of Qualifying External Ratings Agencies

In order to calculate the amount of credit risk weighted asset for securitisation exposure with the external ratings-based approach or the stan-
dardised approach, or to calculate the amount of market risk associated 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 Invest-

■ Equity Exposures
1. Overview of 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 maximum amount of overall risk capital, taking into account the financial and business situations of 

SMBC Group.

2. Valuation of Securities and Other Significant Accounting Policies

Stocks of non-consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates not accounted for by the equity method 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 market prices at the end of the fiscal year under 
review (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.”

Note: The VaR and the stressed VaR are calculated using the historical simulation method. Specifically, they are calculated on a daily basis, assuming a one-sided confidence level of 

99.0% and a one-day holding period, based on profit and loss simulation on a scenario-specific basis generated from historical data (the full valuation method, in principle), and 
they are adjusted to a 10-day holding period using the square root of time method. Under this method, the VaR and the stressed VaR use observation periods of four years 
immediately preceding, and 12 months including the stress period, respectively.

5. Backtesting results by the internal models approach (MR4)

The status of backtesting of trading for Fiscal 2019 and 2018 is as follows. “Daily gain/loss” represents the actual gain/loss incurred, and 
“Daily VaR” represents the daily VaR calculated using the risk measurement model with a one-day holding period. In the past 250 business 
days, the number of times loss exceeded VaR was 1, and the VaR model (one-sided confidence level of 99.0%) is considered to have sufficient 
accuracy.

■ Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book
1. Overview of Risk Management Policy and Procedures

Interest rate risk in the banking book is the risk to the present value of a bank’s assets and liabilities and/or the future earnings (interest 
income) from the rate-sensitive instruments when interest rates change. SMBC Group recognizes interest rate risk as a significant risk and 
manages it in an integrated manner, together with other market risks (equity position risk, etc.) (For details, please refer to pages 120 to 
121).
Interest rate risk management is conducted using basis point value (BPV) as a measure of the risk, which denotes the change of present value 
given a basis point rise in the interest rate. Appropriate limits on BPVs are set for each significant subsidiary including SMBC according to 
its capital and business plan, and BPVs are monitored daily for risk management. BPVs are managed not only by changing the balance and 
term structures of assets and liabilities, but also by using hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps and futures.

2. Calculation Method of Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk in the banking book is measured based on the future cash flows of the bank’s assets and liabilities. Especially, the method of 
recognizing the dates for maturity of demand deposits (current accounts and ordinary deposit accounts that can be withdrawn at any time) 
and the method of estimating the time of cancellation prior to maturity of time deposits and mortgage loans affect the risk significantly. Key 
assumptions for measuring interest rate risk of such instruments are as follows.

Method of recognizing the maturity of demand deposits
The amount of the bank’s core deposits is identified as the amount of demand deposits expected to be left with the bank after 5 years (with 
50% of the lowest balance during the past 5 years as the upper limit). The maturity of the core deposits is regarded to be 5 years (2.5 years 
on average). The maturity of the bank’s demand deposits are recognized with 5 years as the maximum term (the average is 0.7 year).

Method of estimating the time of cancellation prior to maturity of time deposits and mortgage loans
Cash flows of mortgage loans tend to be different from the initial scheduled ones, as customers may exercise their prepayment options to 
redeem early in a bonus month or as time passes. Similarly, fixed-term deposits may be canceled prior to maturity. For such instruments, 
interest rate risk is managed by using statistical models to estimate cash flows for each instrument, considering the seasonality, elapsed years, 
interest rate levels at the effective time, etc. These models are validated and reviewed regularly.

Table IRRBB1 shows changes in economic value of equity (ΔEVE) and net interest income (ΔNII) in the banking book, simulated based on 
a set of prescribed interest rate shock scenarios. 
As stipulated under the Pillar 2 of Basel Framework (Supervisory Review Process), in order to identify banks that may have taken too large 
interest rate risk, the Japan FSA applies “materiality test” as comparing the bank’s ΔEVE with 15% of its Tier 1 capital, under a set of 
prescribed interest rate shock scenarios. The measurement result of SMBC Group’s ΔEVE shows that the economic value of equity declines 
when interest rates rise and the maximum change amount is under the prescribed parallel shock up scenario. SMBC Groups’ ΔEVE is not 
larger than 15% of our Tier 1 capital.
As for ΔNII, net interest income declines under the prescribed parallel shock down scenario and increased under the parallel shock up 
scenario. Due to the assumption of zero floor on the interest rate of customer’s deposits in JPY, which limits reduction of the funding cost 
when interest rate down, the change amount is larger under the parallel shock down scenario.
The measurement scope, the definition of each figure and the calculation assumption are as follows.

Scope
The consolidated subsidiaries of SMBC
•  ΔEVE is calculated by simple aggregation of the decrease in economic value for all currencies.  
•  ΔNII is calculated by simple aggregation of the change amount of interest income for each currency in which the total amount of interest 

rate-sensitive assets and liabilities is 5% or more of the total.

Definition of Each Figure and Calculation Assumption 
• ΔEVE

Decrease in economic value (EVE, Economic Value on Equity) against interest rate shock (excluding the credit spread). 

• ΔNII

Decrease in 1 year interest income (NII, Net Interest Income) under each the interest rate shock. It is calculated under the constant balance 
sheet, which means that the balance sheet does not change through a year. In each simulation, we do not allow negative interest rate for 
domestic yen deposits and loans in any scenario.

Notes: 1. Transactions in the trading book including derivative transactions extend over multiple risk categories, since they are subject to both market risks and counterparty credit 

risks.

2. Account titles including monetary claims boughts are subject to securitisation products if they have a characteristic of securitisation products, otherwise they are subject to 

CR, therefore, they extend over multiple risk categories.

3. Foreign exchange risk and commodities risk in the banking book are not included in column f “Market risk,” since it is difficult to link them with account titles.

transactions, etc.)

(3)  The amount of SFTs (amount of cash receivables in SFTs added by the amount of exposure at the counterparty of transaction 

calculated for each unit of SFTs (which shall be zero if such amount turned out to be a negative value)) 

(4)  The amount of off-balance sheet transactions (excluding derivative transactions, etc., and SFTs) (the amount of credit risk 

exposure at the counterparty of transaction, added by the amount of exposure arising from the underlying asset, as well as the

Reason for the significant difference from the leverage ratio in the previous fiscal year
Decrease in leverage ratio is attributable to an increase in total exposures, due to a decrease in capital mainly associated with a decrease in additional Tier 1 instruments and a decline in 
net unrealized gains or losses on other securities, along with an increase in on-balance sheet assets primarily comprising cash and due from banks and loans and bills discounted.

Preferred resolution strategy (1)
The SPE (Single Point of Entry) resolution strategy is considered to be the preferred resolution strategy for Sumitomo Mitsui Financial 
Group, Inc. (SMFG) and its subsidiaries.
More concretely, at the time of a stress, following the relevant authority’s determination that one or more of the material sub-groups, i.e. 
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., have reached the point of non-viability, losses incurred to them 
would be passed to SMFG, the ultimate holding company. While this could lead to a resolution of SMFG, the material sub-groups are 
expected to continue their business as usual under the Specified Bridge Financial Institution, etc. incorporated by the Deposit Insurance 
Corporation of Japan (DICJ) to which SMFG transfers its business.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Basel 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 ratio regulation under the Basel III, has 
been introduced in Japan. In addition to the application of uniform international standards, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 on the following page, the LCR has remained stable since the introduction of the liquidity ratio regulation on March 31, 2015.

2. Assessment of Consolidated LCR
  The LCR Notification stipulates the minimum requirement of the LCR at 100%. The LCR of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 

(consolidated) exceeds the minimum requirements of the LCR, having no cause for concern. In terms of the future LCR forecasts, Sumitomo 
Mitsui Financial Group does not expect significant deviations from the disclosed ratios. In addition, the actual LCR does not differ 
significantly from the initial forecast.

3. Composition of High-Quality Liquid Assets
  Regarding the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be included in the calculation, there are no significant changes in locations and 

properties of currency denominations, categories and so on. In addition, in respect of major currencies (those of which the aggregate amount 
of liabilities denominated in a certain currency accounts for 5% or more of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group’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
  Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 LCR Notification. Meanwhile, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group records “cash 
outflows related to small-sized consolidated subsidiaries,” etc. under “cash outflows based on other contracts” prescribed in Article 59 of the 
LCR Notification.

Reason for the significant difference from the leverage ratio on a consolidated basis in the previous fiscal year
Decrease in leverage ratio on a consolidated basis is attributable to an increase in total exposures, due to a decrease in capital associated with a decline in net unrealized gains or losses on 
other securities, and a decrease in additional Tier 1 instruments, along with an increase in on-balance sheet assets primarily comprising loans and bills discounted and cash and due from 
banks.

SMBCSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Basel 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 ratio 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 on the following page, the LCR has remained stable since the introduction of the liquidity ratio regulation on March 31, 2015.

2. Assessment of Consolidated LCR
  The LCR Notification stipulates the minimum requirement of the LCR at 100%. The LCR of SMBC (consolidated) exceeds the minimum 
requirements of the LCR, having no cause for concern. In terms of the future LCR forecasts, SMBC does not expect significant deviations 
from the disclosed ratios. In addition, the actual LCR does not differ significantly from the initial forecast.

3. Composition of High-Quality Liquid Assets
  Regarding the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be included in the calculation, there are no significant changes in locations and 

properties of currency denominations, categories and so on. In addition, in respect of major currencies (those of which the aggregate amount 
of liabilities denominated in a certain currency accounts for 5% 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 LCR Notification. Meanwhile, SMBC records “due to trust account,” etc. under “cash outflows based on other 
contracts” prescribed in Article 60 of the LCR Notification.

Reason for the significant difference from the leverage ratio on a non-consolidated basis in the previous fiscal year
Decrease in leverage ratio on a non-consolidated basis is attributable to an increase in total exposures, due to a decrease in capital associated with a decline in net unrealized gains or 
losses on other securities and a decrease in retained earnings due to dividend payments, along with an increase in on-balance sheet assets primarily comprising loans and bills discounted 
and cash and due from banks.

SMBCSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Basel 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 ratio 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 on the following page, the LCR has remained stable with no significant fluctuation since the introduction of the liquidity ratio 

regulation on March 31, 2015.

2. Assessment of Non-consolidated LCR
  The LCR Notification stipulates the minimum requirement of the LCR for 2018 at 90%, and 100% from 2019 onwards. The LCR of SMBC 
(non-consolidated) exceeds the minimum requirements of the LCR for 2018 and for 2019 onwards, having no cause for concern. In terms of 
the future LCR forecasts, SMBC does not expect significant deviations from the disclosed ratios. In addition, the actual LCR does not differ 
significantly from the initial forecast.

3. Composition of High-Quality Liquid Assets
  Regarding the high-quality liquid assets allowed to be included in the calculation, there are no significant changes in locations and 

properties of currency denominations, categories and so on. In addition, in respect of major currencies (those of which the aggregate amount 
of liabilities denominated in a certain currency accounts for 5% 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 LCR Notification. Meanwhile, SMBC records “due to trust account,” etc. under “cash outflows based on other 
contracts” prescribed in Article 60 of the LCR Notification.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020Basel III InformationCompensation

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group

■ Compensation Framework of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 executive officers of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group during the fiscal year 
under review (excluding outside directors).

(2) Scope of Employees and Others

Employees and others subject to compensation disclosure are employees of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its major consolidated subsidiaries.
a)  Scope of major consolidated subsidiaries

A major consolidated subsidiary is a consolidated subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group with total assets accounting for 
more than 2% of the total consolidated assets of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and has a material influence on the management 
of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its group companies. Specifically, they are Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, SMBC 
Nikko Securities Inc., 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group or its major 
subsidiaries is equal to or more than the base amount. The base amount of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group is set at ¥60 million 
which is based on the average amount of compensation paid to the officers of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 for officers serving in Japan, 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its major consolidated 

subsidiaries
A person has a material influence on the business management or assets of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its group companies, or losses incurred through such actions have a 
significant impact on the financial situation of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its group companies. Specifically, persons 
having such influence are directors, corporate auditors and corporate officers of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its major 
consolidated subsidiaries, both domestic and overseas.

2.  Names, Compositions, and Duties of the Main Bodies, Such as the Committee Responsible for Supervising Business Execution 

Concerning the Determination of Compensation, Its Payment and Other Related Matters
(1) Establishment and Maintenance of the Compensation Committee

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group’s directors and corporate executive officers.” The 
Compensation Committee is a body independent from the influence of business units, chaired by an outside director, with the majority 
of its members being also outside directors, and tasked to determine and deliberate matters related to executive compensation of 
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and its group companies. In addition, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Compensation Committee 
reviews and discusses executive compensation programmes/practices of group companies of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and the 
individual remuneration for Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group’s other executive officers. Furthermore, group companies of Sumitomo 
Mitsui Financial Group respect the details of the deliberations at the Compensation Committee of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 
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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo 
Mitsui Financial Group 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.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020■ Assessment of Design and Operation of Compensation Structure
Compensation Policies for Officers, Employees and Others

(1) For Officers

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 while materializing our medium-/long-term vision.
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, one of the Group’s main subsidiaries shall determine its executive compensations in accordance 
with this Policy.


Executive compensation at SMBC Group shall be determined based on the following concept.
I. 

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

II. 

III. 
IV. 

V. 

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

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


I. 

 SMBC Group’s executive compensation programme (the “Programme”) shall have three components: base salary, cash bonus, and 
stock compensation.
 However, compensation for outside directors and Audit Committee members shall comprise base salary alone, in consideration of 
the nature of their role of management supervision.
 In order to hold the Executives accountable and provide them with appropriate incentives for the performance of SMBC 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 
stockbased 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 single year performance of SMBC Group 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 medium-/ long-
term perspectives. Around 70% of the determined amount shall be paid in cash and the remaining 30% or so shall be paid under 
Stock Compensation Plan II (the “Plan II”).

VI. 

VII.   Stock compensation plans consist of three types, which are, Stock Compensation Plan I (the “Plan I”), under which the remuneration 
of the Executives shall be determined based on SMBC Group’s medium-term performance, etc., the Plan II, determined based on 
SMBC Group’s single year 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 

common stock. The transfer of such stock shall be restricted for appropriately defined periods.

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

performance of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group shares, and the results of customer satisfaction surveys, etc.

c.  Remunerations under Plan II shall be determined based on the single year performance of SMBC Group, the group company, and the 
business 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, 

IX. 

remunerations under the Plans could be reduced or fully forfeited.
 Notwithstanding the aforementioned “Compensation Programme,” executive compensation for the Executives locally appointed at 
overseas entities and those domiciled outside Japan shall be individually designed, not only in accordance with the basic concept 
above, but also with consideration to local regulations, tax regime, guidelines, and other local market practices, whilst ensuring the 
compensation should not incentivize for excessive risk-taking.


Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, as a Company with a Nomination Committee, establishes a “Compensation Committee” to resolve 
the following:

    •   The Policy, executive compensation programme including the aforementioned compensation programme and regulations 

concerning the Policy

    •  Individual remunerations for Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group’s directors and corporate executive officers
In addition to the above, the Compensation Committee shall review and discuss the below:
    •  The individual remuneration for Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group’s corporate officers and other officers.
    •  Executive compensation programmes/practices of group companies of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group.

(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, Sumitomo 
Mitsui Financial Group and its major consolidated subsidiaries determine the domestic compensation taking into account their job 
responsibilities, business performance and other factors. Compensation for employees and others are determined by the HR departments 
of respective SMBC Group companies by comprehensively taking into account the surrounding business environment, performance 
trends, pay history and other factors. Compensation policies for overseas employees are determined following the aforementioned 
compensation policy for employees and others in Japan as well as in accordance with local laws, regulations and employment practices.

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

Performance
1. Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and SMBC

In determining the compensation for the officers of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, 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 Sumitomo Mitsui 
Financial Group shares, and the results of customer satisfaction surveys, etc. Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and SMBC 
allot restricted stocks via the Plans to Executives to effectively defer part of executive compensation.
Stock Compensation Plan I involves removal of the restriction on transfer, after the expiry of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial 
Group’s Medium-term Management Plan. In the event that the finalized amount of compensation falls short of the initially 
allocated amount, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group will retrieve all or part of the allotted shares at nil cost in the case the 
final amount falls below the initial amount. 
Stock Compensation Plan II involves step-by-step removal of the restriction on transfer, one third in each year over the three 
years following the payment.
Stock Compensation Plan III involves removal of the restriction on transfer, either 30 years after payment or at the time of 
retirement from the position of officer.
In addition, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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, local laws, regulations and employment practices, and a compensation structure that could affect the 
risk management of SMBC Group has not been adopted. While terms of employment presented at the time of recruitment may 
include the minimum amount of compensation within a reasonable scope under local practice, the compensation structure is 
designed to avoid an excessive result-oriented approach. In addition, expenses for employee retention are recorded for 
employees of certain major consolidated subsidiaries.

Sumitomo Mitsui Financial GroupSMBC GROUP ANNUAL REPORT 2020CompensationCompensation

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) and Its Group Companies

■ Compensation Framework of SMBC Group
1. Scope of Officers and Employees

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 SMBC 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 SMBC 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 SMBC and its major
consolidated subsidiaries.
a)  Scope of major consolidated subsidiaries

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

b) Scope of highly compensated persons

A highly compensated person is an individual whose compensation paid by SMBC or its major subsidiaries is equal to or more than
the base amount. The base amount of SMBC is set at ¥60 million which is based on the average amount of compensation paid to the
officers of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group 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 for officers serving 
in Japan, 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 SMBC and its major consolidated subsidiaries

A person has a material influence on the business management or assets of SMBC 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 SMBC and its
group companies, or losses incurred through such actions have a significant impact on the financial situation of SMBC and its group
companies. Specifically, persons having such influence are directors, corporate auditors and corporate officers of SMBC and its major
consolidated subsidiaries, both domestic and overseas.
