Economic Environment
Our results of operations and financial condition are significantly affected by developments in Japan as well as the global economy.
Since December 2019, COVID-19 has spread throughout the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted many countries and regions resulting in the implementation of numerous measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19, such as restrictions on movement and closures of schools, businesses, factories and other public and private facilities. These measures significantly have affected people’s lives and business activities and contributed to declines in consumer spending and stagnant business operations. Coupled with these measures, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a severe impact on both Japanese and global economic conditions.
In Japan, a state of emergency was declared in April 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and economic activity shrank as a result of requests for voluntary restraint on movement and business closure requests to commercial facilities. Under these circumstances, the Japanese government approved “Emergency Economic Measures in Response to COVID-19” to protect the lives and lifestyles of the public and move toward economic recovery. The state of emergency in Japan was lifted in May 2020, and business activities have been resumed gradually, paying extra attention to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
In many countries and regions other than Japan, including the United States and those in Europe and Asia, numerous measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 such as restrictions on business operations and movement continued to be implemented after April 2020, while China began resuming business activities in April 2020 and became the first major economy to return to growth after the COVID-19 pandemic. Subsequently, subject to regional variations in the spread of COVID-19, restrictive measures were eased, and economic activities began to resume gradually. However, in some countries where an upward trend in new cases of COVID-19 has been observed, restrictive measures have been reintroduced.
Due in part to the measures and restrictions on business activities described above, the COVID-19 pandemic had a severe impact on both Japanese and global economic conditions for the six months ended September 30, 2020.
The Japanese economy deteriorated due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the former half of the six months ended September 30, 2020. However, it showed signs of pick-up in the latter half of the period, reflecting the gradual resumption of business activities in Japan and overseas.

Table of Contents
The following table presents the quarter-on-quarter growth rates of Japanese gross domestic product (“GDP”) from the third quarter ended December 31, 2018 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 through the second quarter ended September 30, 2020 for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, based on data published in December 2020 by the Cabinet Office of the Government of Japan.
For the fiscal year ended/ending March 31, | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2019 | 2020 | 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3Q | 4Q | 1Q | 2Q | 3Q | 4Q | 1Q | 2Q | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Japanese GDP | 0.5% | 0.6% | 0.1% | 0.2% | (1.9%) | (0.5%) | (8.3%) | 5.3% |
Japanese GDP decreased by 8.3% on a quarter-on-quarter basis for the first quarter ended June 30, 2020. This was primarily due to decreases in private consumption resulting from the voluntary restraint on social and business activities and exports of goods and services caused by the downturn in overseas economies and a sharp decline in foreign tourist spending, affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, following a sharp decline in the previous quarter, Japanese GDP increased by 5.3% for the second quarter ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to increases in private consumption and exports of goods and services resulting from the resumption of business activities in Japan and overseas.
The employment situation weakened due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The active job openings-to-applicants ratio continued to decline gradually for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The unemployment rate in September 2020 was 3.0%, an increase of 0.6 percentage points from the same month of the previous year, based on the data published in October 2020 by the Statistics Bureau in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan. Compensation of employees decreased by 3.7% on a quarter-on-quarter basis for the first quarter ended June 30, 2020. Thereafter, for the second quarter ended September 30, 2020, it increased by 0.5% on a quarter-on-quarter basis.
According to Teikoku Databank, a research institution in Japan, there were approximately 4,000 corporate bankruptcies in Japan for the six months ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of 5.2% from the same period in the previous year, involving approximately ¥0.6 trillion in total liabilities, an increase of 6.5% from the same period in the previous year.
Interest rates in Japanese financial and capital markets are affected by the monetary policy measures of the Bank of Japan (“BOJ”). In February 2016, in addition to the existing provision of ample funds, the BOJ introduced “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with a negative interest rate.” Thereafter, the BOJ announced the introduction of a new policy framework, “quantitative and qualitative monetary easing with yield curve control” in September 2016. Under this policy framework, the BOJ would keep short-term interest rates down by maintaining its policy of applying a negative interest rate of minus 0.1% to certain excess reserves of financial institutions held at the BOJ. Moreover, the BOJ indicated it would purchase Japanese government bonds so that the yield of the 10-year Japanese government bonds would be close to around 0% to control long-term interest rates. In July 2018, the BOJ decided to introduce forward guidance for policy rates with a view to persistently continuing with powerful monetary easing. Further, on October 31, 2019, the BOJ amended its forward guidance to indicate that it expects short- and long-term interest rates to remain at or below their present levels so long as the BOJ believes it is necessary to pay close attention to the possibility of a loss in momentum toward achieving its 2% price stability target. Thereafter, on March 16, 2020, the BOJ announced “enhancement of monetary easing in light of the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19.” The BOJ stated in this announcement that it decided to enhance monetary easing with a view to doing its utmost to ensure smooth corporate financing and maintaining stability in financial markets, thereby preventing firms’ and households’ sentiment from deteriorating. Thereafter, on April 27, 2020 and May 22, 2020, the BOJ decided to further enhance monetary easing and introduce measures to support corporate financing taking into account the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Japanese economic conditions. Under such circumstances, the uncollateralized overnight call rate, which is the benchmark short-term interest rate, remained negative for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The yield on newly issued Japanese government bonds with a maturity of 10 years, which is the benchmark long-term interest rate, was at around 0% for the same period.

The yen appreciated against the U.S. dollar from ¥108.42 at March 31, 2020 to ¥105.62 at September 30, 2020, according to the statistical data published by the BOJ.
The Nikkei Stock Average, which is a price-weighted average of 225 stocks listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange First Section, rose from ¥18,917.01 at March 31, 2020 to ¥23,185.12 at September 30, 2020.
According to a report published by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of Japan, the average residential land price and the average commercial land price in Japan decreased by 0.7% and 0.3%, respectively, from July 1, 2019 to July 1, 2020.
The global economy deteriorated owing to the COVID-19 pandemic in the former half of the six months ended September 30, 2020. However, it showed signs of pick-up in the latter half of the period, reflecting the gradual resumption of business activities around the world. The U.S. economy deteriorated rapidly in the former half of the six months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to declines in private consumption, business fixed investment and exports of goods and services affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it was gradually picking up in the latter half of the period, primarily due to an increase in private consumption, reflecting the gradual recovery of business activities. Economic growth in Europe showed a sharp decline in the former half of the six months ended September 30, 2020. This was primarily due to decreases in private consumption resulting from the restraint on movement and exports of goods and services caused by a decline in foreign tourist spending, affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In the latter half of the period, European economy began to recover resulting from the gradual resumption of business activities, although the pace of its recovery was slow reflecting the upward trend in new cases of COVID-19. In Asia, the Chinese economy was picking up because of recovery of business activities in April 2020. Asian economies other than China continued to slow down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it showed signs of bottoming out in some countries and regions.
New cases of COVID-19 globally increased and remained high in October and November 2020 according to the “COVID-19 Weekly Epidemiological Update” issued by the World Health Organization. Following the rise in new cases of COVID-19, some countries slowed or stopped the process of easing coronavirus curbs and brought back tougher measures. For example, based on the rapid upward trend in new COVID-19 cases, many countries in Europe entered a second lockdown. Therefore, it is difficult to predict the evolution of COVID-19 and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Japanese and global economy, considering the effect of measures taken by governments and regulators around the world. The future direct and indirect impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance remains uncertain.
Regulatory Environment
In addition to economic factors and conditions, we expect that our results of operations and financial condition will be significantly affected by regulatory trends.
Capital Adequacy Requirements
Each year, the Financial Stability Board (“FSB”) publishes a list of global financial institutions that it has identified as Global Systemically Important Banks (“G-SIBs”) based on the methodology issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“BCBS”). G-SIBs included on the list are required to maintain an amount of Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital above the Basel III minimum requirement and applicable capital conservation buffer to discourage such financial institutions from becoming even more systemically important. This is commonly known as the G-SIB capital surcharge.
The G-SIB capital surcharge ranges from 1% to 2% of additional CET1 capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets based on the organization’s size, interconnectedness, substitutability, complexity and cross-jurisdictional activity as determined by the FSB.

Table of Contents
We have been included in the list of G-SIBs each year since the initial list was published in November 2011 and were included on the list published in November 2020. Based on that list, the additional CET1 capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets we are currently required to maintain is 1%.
SMBC Group’s Response to COVID-19
Considering the significant impact on people’s lives and the economy caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we strive to ensure the health and safety of our customers and employees. Furthermore, the SMBC Group supports our customers through financial services and is committed to contributing to local communities and society including support of the medical industry.
Support for Customers through Financial Services
For our clients, the SMBC Group, as a financial institution which is a part of the social infrastructure, fulfills our responsibility by continuing to provide services such as financing and settlement. In Japan, we have kept all SMBC branches open and ATMs accessible. We have also offered flexible responses to urgent financial needs and requests for new loans and changes in loan terms and conditions. In addition to the above, we are planning to launch a new investment fund to support medical-related venture companies in Japan in order to contribute to solving social issues that have become apparent due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Prevention of the Spread of Infection and Initiatives for Continuous Business Operation
For our employees, in addition to maintaining employment and salary, we promote teleworking capabilities and conduct operations by separating staff into two or more teams on alternating shifts. By thoroughly implementing infection prevention and control measures in branches and offices, we are continuing our operations. We are also giving consideration to the physical and mental health of our employees by establishing a consultation counter to support our employees who are concerned about their physical and/or mental health.
Contributing to Local Communities and Society
In order to contribute to the soundness of the local community and society, we are providing donations to support medical institutions, education and welfare, and cultural & artistic activities. In addition to donations from us, SMBC is carrying out a campaign called “SMBC at HOME” through which SMBC aims to make donations to battle COVID-19 in response to the number of individual and corporate customers using certain of SMBC’s internet banking services.
Developments Related to Our Business
Issuance of a perpetual subordinated bond qualified as Additional Tier 1 capital
In September 2020, we issued a ¥100 billion perpetual subordinated bond. The bond is a Basel III-compliant Additional Tier 1 capital instrument and is classified as equity under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). For further information, see Note 12 “Equity Attributable to Other Equity Instruments Holders” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
See Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
The figures in our operating results and financial condition presented below are prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, except for the risk-weighted capital ratios, the segment results of operation and some other specifically identified information, which are prepared in accordance with Japanese banking regulations or accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), and expressed in Japanese yen, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.
Under the economic and financial circumstances described in “Recent Developments—Operating Environment,” we made a profit through our business activities including commercial banking and other financial services businesses. Our total operating income increased by ¥114,984 million from ¥1,446,644 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to ¥1,561,628 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to increases in net interest income and net income from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Our net profit increased by ¥57,911 million from ¥267,466 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to ¥325,377 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020, due to a decrease in operating expenses and the increase in total operating income described above, which were partially offset by an increase in impairment charges on financial assets.
Our total assets increased by ¥6,825,605 million from ¥212,158,463 million at March 31, 2020 to ¥218,984,068 million at September 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase in cash and deposits with banks.

Our total equity increased by ¥653,703 million from ¥10,934,878 million at March 31, 2020 to ¥11,588,581 million at September 30, 2020, primarily due to increases in retained earnings, other reserves and equity attributable to other equity instruments holders.

(1) | Taxable investment securities and non-taxable investment securities are not disclosed separately because the aggregate effect of these average balances and interest income would not be material. In addition, the yields on tax-exempt obligations have not been calculated on a tax equivalent basis because the effect of such calculation would not be material. |
(2) | Loans and advances include impaired loans and advances. The amortized portion of net loan origination fees (costs) is included in interest income on loans and advances. |
(3) | Average balances are generally based on a daily average. Weekly, month-end or quarter-end averages are used for certain average balances where it is not practical to obtain applicable daily averages. The allocations of amounts between domestic and foreign are based on the location of the office. |

Interest Income
Our interest income decreased by ¥296,122 million, or 24%, from ¥1,236,043 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to ¥939,921 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in interest income on loans and advances of ¥226,253 million, or 21%. Interest income on loans and advances decreased by ¥61,670 million, or 13% at domestic offices and by ¥164,583 million, or 28% at foreign offices. The decreases were primarily due to a decrease in the average rate of loans, which was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of loans to corporate customers as a result of our responses to their financing needs arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our business segment information is prepared based on the internal reporting system utilized by management to assess the performance of our business segments under Japanese GAAP.
We have four main business segments: the Wholesale Business Unit, the Retail Business Unit, the Global Business Unit, which was renamed from the International Business Unit on April 1, 2020, and the Global Markets Business Unit, with the remaining operations recorded in Head office account and others. Due to an internal reorganization of certain SMBC businesses, and changes in the revenue management system at SMBC Nikko Securities, both effective from April 1, 2020, the comparative information for the six months ended September 30, 2019 has been restated.
Since figures reported to management are prepared under Japanese GAAP, the segment information does not agree to the figures in the consolidated financial statements under IFRS. This difference is addressed in Note 4 “Segment Analysis—Reconciliation of Segmental Results of Operations to Consolidated Income Statements” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Wholesale Business Unit
Consolidated gross profit for the six months ended September 30, 2020 was ¥282.5 billion and decreased by ¥14.5 billion on an adjusted basis compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019. This was primarily due to a decrease in non-interest income affected by the restraint on economic activity because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was partially offset by increases in interest income on loans and loan-related fees of SMBC in responses to urgent financial needs caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2020 was ¥146.6 billion and decreased by ¥2.8 billion on an adjusted basis compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of restrictions on marketing activities affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and cost reduction efforts.
Others for the six months ended September 30, 2020 was ¥24.5 billion.
As a result, consolidated net business profit for the six months ended September 30, 2020 was ¥160.4 billion and decreased by ¥9.0 billion on an adjusted basis compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019.
Retail Business Unit
Consolidated gross profit for the six months ended September 30, 2020 was ¥548.7 billion and decreased by ¥23.4 billion on an adjusted basis compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019. This was primarily due to a decrease in income from the payment businesses and the consumer finance businesses reflecting a decline in private consumption affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, which was partially offset by an increase in income from the wealth management businesses.
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2020 was ¥443.3 billion and decreased by ¥15.8 billion on an adjusted basis compared to the six months ended September 30, 2019.

Loans and Advances
Our main operating activity is the lending business. We make loans and extend other types of credit principally to corporate and individual customers in Japan and to corporate and sovereign customers in foreign countries.
At September 30, 2020, our loans and advances were ¥95,958,431 million, or 44% of total assets, representing an increase of ¥1,286,613 million, or 1%, from ¥94,671,818 million at March 31, 2020. The increase in loans and advances was due to an increase in the balance of loans to domestic corporate customers as a result of our responses to their financing needs arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. On the other hand, the amount of outstanding loans and advances to foreign customers decreased due to a decrease in the amount outstanding to corporate customers in the United States and Asian countries. This was mainly because the amount of outstanding loans and advances to those customers at March 31, 2020 was higher due to a surge in drawdowns on loan commitments in March 2020 and the amount outstanding at September 30, 2020 was reduced due to repayments in the current period on the loan commitments previously drawn down.

Allowance for Loan Losses
We calculate the allowance for loan losses under the expected credit losses (“ECL”) model. We use the latest obligor grades (our internal credit rating) and supplementary data such as the borrowers’ operating cash flows, realizable value of collateral and recent economic conditions. We incorporate forward-looking information into the ECL measurement by obligor grading, macroeconomic factors and additional adjustments if the current circumstances, events or conditions at the relevant portfolio level are not fully reflected in the ECL model.
The obligor grades were reviewed based on the most recent information available as appropriate. For the six months ended September 30, 2020, the obligor grades of many corporate borrowers affected by the COVID-19

pandemic were downgraded to the extent that the credit risk on loans and advances to such borrowers was determined to be significantly increased since initial recognition and the allowance for loan losses for them was measured at an amount equal to the lifetime ECL.
The estimates of the key macroeconomic drivers for measuring the ECL were updated reflecting the recent economic forecasts. Although we understand that there is significant uncertainty in predicting the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on world economies, we assumed that the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to remain throughout the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, and thereafter the Japanese and global economy will gradually pick up and recover from the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022. Based on the above forecasts of economic conditions, the growth rates of Japanese and global GDP, the key macroeconomic drivers impacting credit risks and losses, are expected to be around minus 5% and minus 4%, respectively for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, and around 3% and 5%, respectively for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022.
Furthermore, we considered whether there is an increased credit risk for some portfolios on which the COVID-19 pandemic would have a material adverse impact but where the impact was not fully incorporated in the ECL model. We evaluated the forward-looking impact on credit risks and losses of not only the portfolios significantly affected by declines in market prices such as oil prices, but also certain industry-related portfolios selected based on changes in factors such as the market conditions and bankruptcy trends as a result of the reduction in economic activity by the voluntary restraint of social and business activities. As a consequence, we decided to make an additional ECL adjustment.
For the six months ended September 30, 2020, the allowance for loan losses increased by ¥151,543 million, or 21%, from ¥706,405 million at the beginning of the period to ¥857,948 million at the end of the period. The balance of the allowance for loan losses increases when a provision for loan losses is recognized and decreases when charge-offs are recognized through the sales of loans and write-offs. As we recorded a provision for loan losses of ¥224,996 million and charge-offs of ¥80,694 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020, the provision for loan losses exceeded charge-offs and the overall allowance for loan losses increased.
Provision for loan losses increased by ¥167,000 million from ¥57,996 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to ¥224,996 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the provision for loan losses related to our corporate customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Charge-offs increased by ¥9,045 million from ¥71,649 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to ¥80,694 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase in charge-offs of foreign loans and advances.

Impaired Loans and Advances
A portion of the total domestic and foreign loans and advances consists of impaired loans and advances, which are comprised of “potentially bankrupt, effectively bankrupt and bankrupt (loans and advances),” “past due three months or more (loans),” “restructured (loans)” and “other impaired (loans and advances).” The loans and advances for which management has serious doubts about the ability of the borrowers to comply in the near future with the repayment terms are wholly included in impaired loans and advances.
“Potentially bankrupt, effectively bankrupt and bankrupt (loans and advances)” comprise loans and advances to borrowers that are perceived to have a high risk of falling into bankruptcy, may not have been legally or formally declared bankrupt but are essentially bankrupt, or have been legally or formally declared bankrupt.
Loans classified as “past due three months or more (loans)” represent those loans that are three months or more past due as to principal or interest, which are not included in “potentially bankrupt, effectively bankrupt and bankrupt (loans and advances).”
23
Table of Contents
The category “restructured (loans)” comprises loans not included above for which the terms of the loans have been modified to grant concessions because of problems with the borrower.
“Other impaired (loans and advances)” represent impaired loans and advances, which are not included in “potentially bankrupt, effectively bankrupt and bankrupt (loans and advances),” “past due three months or more (loans),” or “restructured (loans),” but for which information about credit problems causes management to classify them as impaired loans and advances.

The following table shows the distribution of impaired loans and advances by “potentially bankrupt, effectively bankrupt and bankrupt (loans and advances),” “past due three months or more (loans),” “restructured (loans)” and “other impaired (loans and advances)” at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020 by domicile and type of industry of the borrowers. At September 30, 2020, gross impaired loans and advances were ¥984,677 million, an increase of ¥139,348 million from ¥845,329 million at March 31, 2020.

Our investment securities, consisting of debt instruments at amortized cost, debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income and equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, totaled ¥24,353,970 million at September 30, 2020, an increase of ¥2,489,584 million, or 11%, from ¥21,864,386 million at March 31, 2020. The increase in our investment securities was primarily due to an increase in our holdings of Japanese government bonds, which were partially offset by decreases in our holdings of U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government agency bonds and mortgage-backed securities.
Our bond portfolio is principally held for asset and liability management purposes. It mostly consisted of Japanese government bonds, U.S. Treasury securities and bonds issued or guaranteed by foreign governments, government agencies or official institutions.
Our debt instruments at amortized cost amounted to ¥64,213 million at September 30, 2020, a decrease of ¥256,558 million, or 80%, from ¥320,771 million at March 31, 2020, primarily due to redemptions at maturity of Japanese government bonds.
Domestic debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income amounted to ¥11,443,653 million at September 30, 2020, an increase of ¥3,838,600 million, or 50%, from ¥7,605,053 million at March 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in our holdings of Japanese government bonds. As for our foreign debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, we had ¥8,869,520 million of foreign debt instruments at September 30, 2020, which was a decrease of ¥1,579,591 million, or 15%, from ¥10,449,111 million at March 31, 2020. Most of our foreign debt instruments, including mortgage-backed securities, are issued or guaranteed by foreign governments, government agencies or official institutions. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in our holdings of U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government agency bonds and mortgage-backed securities.
We had ¥3,433,111 million of domestic equity instruments and ¥543,473 million of foreign equity instruments at September 30, 2020, for which we made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income under IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments.” Our domestic equity instruments, which consisted principally of publicly traded Japanese stocks and included common and preferred stocks issued by our customers, increased by ¥408,380 million, or 14%, from ¥3,024,731 million at March 31, 2020. Net unrealized gains on our domestic equity instruments increased by ¥437,855 million, or 28%, from ¥1,564,351 million at March 31, 2020 to ¥2,002,206 million at September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the fair value of publicly traded Japanese stocks. Net unrealized gains on our foreign equity instruments increased by ¥80,195 million, or 24%, from ¥333,664 million at March 31, 2020 to ¥413,859 million at September 30, 2020, mainly reflecting favorable conditions in overseas stock markets.
We have no transactions pursuant to repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions or other transactions involving the transfer of financial assets with an obligation to repurchase such transferred assets that are treated as sales for accounting purposes.

Deposits
We offer a wide range of standard banking accounts through the offices of our banking subsidiaries in Japan, including non-interest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, deposits at notice, time deposits and negotiable certificates of deposit. Domestic deposits, approximately 78% of total deposits, are our principal source of funds for our domestic operations. The deposits in the domestic offices of our banking subsidiaries are principally from individuals and private corporations, governmental bodies (including municipal authorities) and financial institutions.
SMBC’s foreign offices accept deposits mainly in U.S. dollars, but also in yen and other currencies, and are active participants in the Euro-currency market as well as the United States domestic money market. Foreign deposits mainly consist of stable types of deposits, such as deposits at notice, time deposits and negotiable certificates of deposit.
Our deposit balances at September 30, 2020 were ¥148,886,755 million, an increase of ¥10,455,337 million from ¥138,431,418 million at March 31, 2020, primarily due to increases in demand deposits at domestic offices and deposits at notice at foreign offices. The demand deposits at domestic offices increased primarily due to an increase in deposits both from corporate customers proactively maintaining liquidity and from individual customers reflecting the provision of special cash payments to Japanese residents by the Japanese government as part of its economic measures to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic.
The following table shows a breakdown of our domestic and foreign offices’ deposits at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020.

Our total equity increased by ¥653,703 million from ¥10,934,878 million at March 31, 2020 to ¥11,588,581 million at September 30, 2020, primarily due to increases in retained earnings, which mainly reflected our net profit, other reserves and equity attributable to other equity instruments holders. The increase in other reserves was primarily due to the financial instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income reserve reflecting a rise in the fair value of domestic equity instruments. The increase in equity attributable to other equity instruments holders was primarily due to the issuance of a perpetual subordinated bond qualified as Additional Tier 1 capital and classified as equity under IFRS. For more information, see Note 12 “Equity Attributable to Other Equity Instruments Holders” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

We derive funding for our operations both from domestic and international sources. Our domestic funding is derived primarily from deposits placed with SMBC by its corporate and individual customers, and also from call money (inter-bank), bills sold (inter-bank promissory notes), repurchase agreements, borrowings, and negotiable certificates of deposit issued by SMBC to domestic and international customers. Our international sources of funds are principally from deposits from corporate customers and foreign central banks, negotiable certificates of deposit, bonds, commercial paper, and also from repurchase agreements and cash collateral on securities lent. We closely monitor maturity gaps and foreign exchange exposure in order to manage our liquidity profile.
As shown in the following table, total deposits increased by ¥10,455,337 million from ¥138,431,418 million at March 31, 2020 to ¥148,886,755 million at September 30, 2020. The balance of deposits at September 30, 2020 exceeded the balance of loans and advances by ¥52,928,324 million, primarily due to the stable deposit base in Japan. Our loan-to-deposit ratio (total loans and advances divided by total deposits) in the same period was 64%, which contributed greatly to the reduction of our liquidity risk. Our balances of large-denomination domestic yen time deposits are stable due to the historically high rollover rate of our corporate customers and individual depositors.

We have invested the excess balance of deposits against loans and advances primarily in marketable securities and other highly liquid assets, such as Japanese government bonds. SMBC’s Treasury Unit actively monitors the movement of interest rates and maturity profile of its bond portfolio as part of SMBC’s overall risk management. The bonds can be used to enhance liquidity. When needed, they can be used as collateral for call money or other money market funding or short-term borrowings from the BOJ.
Secondary sources of liquidity include short-term debts, such as call money, bills sold, and commercial paper issued at an inter-bank or other wholesale markets. We also issue long-term debts, including both senior and subordinated debts, as additional sources of liquidity. With short- and long-term debts, we can diversify our funding sources, effectively manage our funding costs and enhance our capital adequacy ratios when appropriate.
We source our funding in foreign currencies primarily from financial institutions, general corporations, and institutional investors, through short- and long-term financing. Even if we encounter declines in our credit quality or that of Japan in the future, we expect to be able to purchase foreign currencies in sufficient amounts using the yen funds raised through our domestic customer base. As further measures to support our foreign currency liquidity, we hold foreign debt securities, maintain credit lines and swap facilities denominated in foreign currencies, and pledge collateral to the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank.
We maintain management and control systems to support our ability to access liquidity on a stable and cost-effective basis.
We believe we are able to access such sources of liquidity on a stable and flexible basis by keeping credit ratings at a high level. The following table shows credit ratings assigned to the Company by Moody’s Japan K.K., (“Moody’s”), S&P Global Ratings Japan Inc. (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings Japan Limited (“Fitch”) at November 30, 2020.

We are assigned credit ratings by major domestic and international credit rating agencies. Credit ratings do not constitute recommendations to purchase, sell or hold a security, and rating agencies may review or indicate an intention to review ratings at any time. While the methodology and rating system vary among rating agencies, credit ratings are generally based on information provided by us or independent sources, and can be influenced by the credit ratings of Japanese government bonds and broader views of the Japanese financial system. Any downgrade in or withdrawal of these credit ratings, or any adverse change in these ratings relative to other financial institutions, could increase our borrowing costs, reduce our access to the capital markets and otherwise negatively affect our ability to raise funds, which in turn could have a negative impact on our liquidity position.
The guidelines published by the Financial Services Agency of Japan (“FSA”) for liquidity coverage ratio (“LCR”) applicable to banks and bank holding companies with international operations are based on the full text of the LCR standard issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“BCBS”) in January 2013. Under these guidelines, banks and bank holding companies with international operations must maintain LCR of at least 100% on both a consolidated basis and a nonconsolidated basis. The following table shows the LCRs of the Company and SMBC for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Each figure is calculated based on our financial statements prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP, as required by the FSA’s LCR guidelines.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020(1) | ||||
SMFG (consolidated) | 136.0 | % | ||
SMBC (consolidated) | 141.0 | % | ||
SMBC (nonconsolidated) | 146.7 | % |
(1) | Under the FSA’s LCR guidelines, LCR is set as the three-month average of the daily LCRs for the three months ended September 30, 2020, which is calculated by dividing the balance of high-quality liquid assets by the total net cash outflows on a daily basis for the same three months. |
For further information, see “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Regulations in Japan—Regulations Regarding Capital Adequacy and Liquidity—Liquidity Requirement” of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
With regard to capital management, we strictly abide by the capital adequacy guidelines set by the FSA. Japan’s capital adequacy guidelines are based on the Basel Capital Accord, which was proposed by the BCBS for uniform application to all banks which have international operations in industrialized countries. Japan’s capital adequacy guidelines may be different from those of central banks or supervisory bodies of other countries because they have been designed by the FSA to suit the Japanese banking environment. Our banking subsidiaries outside of Japan are also subject to the local capital ratio requirements.
Each figure for the FSA capital adequacy guidelines is calculated based on our financial statements prepared under Japanese GAAP.
The FSA capital adequacy guidelines permit Japanese banks to choose from the standardized approach, the foundation internal rating-based (“IRB”) approach and the advanced IRB approach for credit risk, and the basic indicator approach, the standardized approach (“TSA”) and the advanced measurement approach (“AMA”) for

operational risk. To be eligible to adopt the foundation IRB approach or the advanced IRB approach for credit risk, and the TSA or the AMA for operational risk, a Japanese bank must establish advanced risk management systems and receive prior approval from the FSA.
We and SMBC have adopted the advanced IRB approach since March 2009 and the AMA since March 2008.
In December 2010, the BCBS published the new Basel III rules text to implement the Basel III framework, which sets out higher and better-quality capital, better risk coverage, the introduction of a leverage ratio as a backstop to the risk-based requirement, measures to promote the build-up of capital that can be drawn down in periods of stress, and the introduction of two global liquidity standards. The main measures of the minimum capital requirements in the Basel III framework began in January 2013 and have been fully applied from January 2019. The minimum common equity requirement, the minimum Tier 1 capital requirement and the total minimum capital requirement have been 4.5%, 6% and 8%, respectively, since January 2015. Moreover, banks have been required to hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% to withstand future periods of stress since January 2019. As a result, taking the capital conservation buffer into account, the minimum common equity requirement, the minimum Tier 1 capital requirement and the total minimum capital requirement have been 7%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively, since January 2019. Furthermore, a countercyclical buffer within a range of 0% to 2.5% of common equity or other fully loss-absorbing capital has been implemented according to national circumstances.
In addition to the above-mentioned minimum capital requirements and capital buffer requirements under Basel III, organizations identified by the FSB as G-SIBs, which includes us, are required to maintain an additional 1% to 2% of Common Equity Tier 1 capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets based on the organization’s size, interconnectedness, substitutability, complexity and cross-jurisdictional activity as determined by the FSB. The amount of G-SIB capital surcharge that applies to us based on the FSB’s determination is 1%. The FSB updates its list of G-SIBs on an annual basis.
To reflect the Basel III framework, the FSA changed its capital adequacy guidelines. The minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital requirement, Tier 1 capital requirement, and total capital requirement have been 4.5%, 6% and 8%, respectively, since March 2015. The capital conservation buffer, countercyclical buffer and the G-SIB capital surcharge started to be phased in from March 2016 and have been fully applied from March 2019 under the FSA capital adequacy guidelines.
In December 2017, the Group of Central Bank Governors and Heads of Supervision endorsed the outstanding Basel III regulatory reforms. For further details regarding the finalized Basel III reforms, see “Item 4.B. Business Overview—Regulations in Japan—Regulations Regarding Capital Adequacy and Liquidity—Capital Adequacy Requirement” of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
In March 2015, the FSA published its leverage ratio guidelines, which have been applied from March 31, 2015, to help ensure broad and adequate capture of both on- and off-balance sheet sources of leverage for internationally active banks. The FSA’s leverage ratio guidelines are based on the text of the leverage ratio framework and disclosure requirements issued by the BCBS in January 2014.
In December 2017, the definition and requirements of the leverage ratio were revised as part of the finalized Basel III reforms, under which the leverage ratio is based on a Tier 1 definition of capital and with the minimum leverage ratio of 3%. Under the finalized Basel III reforms, G-SIBs are required to meet a leverage ratio buffer, which will take the form of a Tier 1 capital buffer set at 50% of the applicable G-SIB capital surcharge. Various refinements were also made to the definition of the leverage ratio exposure measure. The leverage ratio requirements under the definition based on the framework issued by the BCBS in January 2014 were implemented as a Pillar 1 measurement from January 2018, and those under the revised definition and the leverage ratio buffer requirement for G-SIBs will be implemented as a Pillar 1 measurement from January 1, 2023.

In March 2019, the FSA published its guidelines for the leverage ratio applicable to banks with international operations, which have been applied from March 2019. Under the FSA’s guidelines for the leverage ratio, banks with international operations must maintain a leverage ratio of at least 3% on both a consolidated basis and a nonconsolidated basis from March 2019. On June 30, 2020, in light of the increasing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the FSA published amendments to its guidelines for the leverage ratio, which mainly exclude deposits with the BOJ from the denominator for the calculation of the leverage ratio in order to maintain harmonization with the monetary policy implemented by the BOJ and the prudential regulations for banks and other financial institutions. These amendments have been applied from June 30, 2020 and will extend to March 31, 2021.
The table below presents our risk-weighted capital ratios, total capital, risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio under Japanese GAAP at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, based on the Basel III rules.

Common Equity Tier 1 capital consists primarily of capital stock, capital surplus and retained earnings relating to common shares, and non-controlling interests that meet the criteria set forth in the FSA capital adequacy guidelines for inclusion in Common Equity Tier 1 capital.
Non-controlling interests arising from the issue of common shares by a fully consolidated subsidiary of a bank may receive recognition in Common Equity Tier 1 capital only if: (1) the instrument giving rise to the non-controlling interest would, if issued by the bank, meet all of the criteria set forth in the FSA capital adequacy guidelines for classification as common shares for regulatory capital purposes; and (2) the subsidiary that issued the instrument is itself a bank or other financial institution subject to similar capital adequacy guidelines.
Regulatory adjustments such as goodwill and other intangibles, deferred tax assets, investment in the common equity capital of banking, financial and insurance entities and defined benefit pension fund assets and liabilities are applied mainly to the calculation of Common Equity Tier 1 capital in the form of a deduction.
Additional Tier 1 capital consists primarily of perpetual subordinated bonds.
Tier 2 capital consists primarily of subordinated debt securities.
Capital instruments such as subordinated debt issued on or after March 31, 2013 must meet the new requirements to be included in regulatory capital. Capital instruments issued prior to March 31, 2013 that do not meet the requirements set forth in the FSA capital adequacy guidelines no longer qualify as Additional Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital. However, if those capital instruments meet the requirements for transitional arrangements set forth in such guidelines, they can qualify as Additional Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital during the phase-out period beginning

March 31, 2013. The remaining balance of those non-qualifying capital instruments recognized as Additional Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital are being reduced in annual 10% increments and will be fully phased out by March 31, 2022.
Our capital position and SMBC’s capital position depend in part on the fair market value of our investment securities portfolio, since unrealized gains and losses are included in the amount of regulatory capital. At March 31, 2013, unrealized gains and losses were counted as Tier 2 capital and Additional Tier 1 capital, respectively, but started to be counted as Common Equity Tier 1 capital from March 31, 2014 by increments of 20% and have been fully counted as Common Equity Tier 1 capital since March 31, 2018. Since our other securities (including money held in trust) with a readily ascertainable market value included unrealized gains and losses, substantial fluctuations in the Japanese stock markets may affect our capital position and the capital position of SMBC.
Set forth below is a table of risk-weighted capital ratios, total capital, risk-weighted assets and leverage ratio of SMBC at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020 on a consolidated and nonconsolidated basis.

Our securities subsidiary in Japan, SMBC Nikko Securities is also subject to capital adequacy requirements under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan. At September 30, 2020, the capital adequacy ratio was 322.4% for SMBC Nikko Securities, and sufficiently above 140%, below which level it would be required to file daily reports with the Commissioner of the FSA.

Our credit risk management system is described in the “Credit Risk” section within Item 11 of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. There were no material changes in our credit risk management system for the six months ended September 30, 2020.
Our market risk management system is described in the “Market Risk and Liquidity Risk” section within Item 11 of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
Our market risk can be divided into various factors: interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices and option risks. We manage each of these risks by employing the value at risk (“VaR”) method as well as supplemental indicators suitable for managing each risk, such as the basis point value (“BPV”).
VaR is the largest predicted loss that is possible given a fixed confidence interval. For example, our VaR indicates the largest loss that is possible for a holding period of one day and a confidence interval of 99.0%. BPV is the amount of change in assessed value as a result of a one-basis-point (0.01%) movement in interest rates.
The principal SMBC Group companies’ internal VaR model makes use of historical data to prepare scenarios for market fluctuations and, by conducting simulations of gains and losses on a net position basis, the model estimates the maximum losses that may occur. The VaR calculation method we employ for both trading and non-trading activities is based mainly on the following:
• | the historical simulation method; |
• | a one-sided confidence interval of 99.0%; |
• | a one-day holding period (a one-year holding period for the strategic shareholding investment portfolio); and |
• | an observation period of four years (ten years for the strategic shareholding investment portfolio). |
This method is reviewed periodically and refined, if necessary.

Back-testing
The relationship between the VaR calculated with the model and the profit and loss data is back-tested periodically. There were no significant excess losses in the back-testing results including the trading accounts.
Stress Tests
To prepare for unexpected market swings, we perform stress tests on a monthly basis based on various scenarios.
Interest Rate Risk
To supplement the above limitations of VaR methodologies, the SMBC Group adopts various indices to measure and monitor the sensitivity of interest rates, including delta, gamma and vega risks. The SMBC Group considers BPV as one of the most significant indices to manage interest rate risk. BPV is the amount of change in the value to the banking and trading book as a result of a one-basis-point (0.01%) movement in interest rates. The principal SMBC Group companies use BPV to monitor interest rate risk, not only on a net basis, but also by term to prevent the concentration of interest rate risk in a specific period. In addition, as previously addressed, the SMBC Group enhances the risk management methods of VaR and BPV by using them in combination with back-testing and stress tests.
Interest rate risk substantially changes depending on the method used for recognizing the expected maturity dates of demand deposits that can be withdrawn at any time or the method used for estimating the timing of cancellation prior to maturity of time deposits and consumer housing loans. At SMBC, the maturity of demand deposits that are expected to be left with SMBC for a prolonged period is regarded to be at the longest five years (2.5 years on average), and the cancellation prior to maturity of time deposits and consumer housing loans is estimated based on historical data.
Based on the standards for interest rate risk in the banking book issued by the BCBS in April 2016, the FSA revised the related regulatory guidelines pertaining to monitoring of interest rate risks in the banking book in December 2017. The revised disclosure requirements with respect to the changes in economic value of equity (“DEVE”) and changes in net interest income (“DNII”) in the banking book as a result of interest rate shocks have been applied from March 31, 2018. The tables below present DEVE and DNII of SMBC and SMFG on a consolidated basis at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively.

Table of Contents
DEVE is defined as a decline in economic value as a result of an interest rate shock. It is calculated by multiplying the interest rate sensitivity (excluding credit spread) and interest rate change. The FSA implements a “materiality test” to identify banks taking excessive interest rate risks. Under the materiality test, the FSA monitors the ratio of DEVE to Tier 1 capital based on a set of prescribed interest rate shock scenarios. The threshold applied by the FSA is 15%, and the ratios for SMBC on a consolidated basis at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020 were 10.2% and 11.1%, respectively and those for SMFG on a consolidated basis at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020 were 8.6% and 9.6%, respectively.
DNII is defined as a decline in interest income over a 12-month period as a result of an interest rate shock. It is calculated assuming a constant balance sheet over a forward-looking 12-month period.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1 | GENERAL INFORMATION |
Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “SMFG”) was established on December 2, 2002, as a holding company for Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (“SMBC”) and its subsidiaries through a statutory share transfer (kabushiki-iten) of all of the outstanding equity securities of 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 (“Companies Act”). Upon the formation of the Company and the completion of the statutory share transfer, SMBC became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company has a primary listing on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (First Section), with further listing on the Nagoya Stock Exchange (First Section). The Company’s American Depositary Shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) offer a diverse range of financial services, including commercial banking, leasing, securities, consumer finance and other services together with its associates and joint ventures.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been authorized for issue by the Management Committee on December 23, 2020.
2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of Preparation
The interim consolidated financial statements, including selected explanatory notes, of the Group have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB.
Significant Accounting Policies
From April 1, 2020, the Group adopted a fair value option for certain financial liabilities which were issued by the Group’s securities subsidiary. As part of risk management, the Group enters into derivative transactions to offset the profit or loss of financial liabilities containing embedded derivatives, designated at fair value through profit or loss (“FVPL”) under the fair value option. The Group can make an irrevocable election for each individual financial liability at initial recognition to designate it as measured at fair value through profit or loss, if it meets one of the following criteria:
• | The designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as “an accounting mismatch”) that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognizing the gains and losses on them on different bases; |
• | A group of financial liabilities or financial assets and financial liabilities is managed, and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the group is provided internally on that basis to the board of directors; or |
• | The financial liability contains one or more embedded derivatives which significantly modify the cash flows and it is not clear with no analysis that separation is prohibited. |
The financial liabilities designated at FVPL are included in “Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss” in the consolidated statements of financial position. The changes in their fair values that are attributable to changes in own credit risk of the liabilities are recognized in “Other comprehensive income” and subsequently not transferred to profit or loss. The amount of changes in their fair values except for the effects
F-7
Table of Contents
of changes in their own credit risk, gains or losses on derecognition and interest expense are included in “Net income from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” in the consolidated income statements.
Additionally, the Group has changed the presentation from “Net income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” to “Net income from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” in the consolidated income statements in order to reflect gains or losses arising from the financial liabilities designated at FVPL on the consolidated income statements.
Other than the above, the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
For the six months ended September 30, 2020, a number of amendments to standards have become effective; however, they have not resulted in any material impact on the Group’s interim consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Group is currently assessing the impact of the following standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted:
Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28)
In September 2014, the IASB issued the narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures” to address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The effective date of applying the amendments was January 1, 2016 when they were originally issued, however, in December 2015, the IASB issued Effective Date of Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 to remove the effective date and indicated that a new effective date will be determined at a future date when it has finalized revisions, if any, that result from its research project on the equity accounting. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the amendments will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions (Amendment to IFRS 16)
In May 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 16 “Leases” to make it easier for lessees to account for COVID-19-related rent concessions such as rent holidays and temporary rent reductions. The amendment exempts lessees to assess whether rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic are lease modifications and allows lessees to account for such rent concessions as if they were not lease modifications. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Interest Rate Benchmark Reform—Phase 2 (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16)
In August 2020, the IASB issued “Interest Rate Benchmark Reform—Phase 2: Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16” in response to the reform of interest rate benchmarks such as interbank offered rates (“IBORs”). The amendments supplement the amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments,” IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” issued in 2019 and focus on the effects on entities’ financial statements when entities replace the previous interest rate benchmark with an alternative interest rate benchmark as a result of the reform. The amendments support entities in applying the standards when changes are made to contractual cash flows or hedging relationships because of the reform and providing useful information to users of financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Group is currently assessing the effects and timing of the adoption of the amendments.

Table of Contents
Reference to the Conceptual Framework (Amendments to IFRS 3)
In May 2020, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” to update a reference in IFRS 3 to the “Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting” without changing the accounting requirements for business combinations. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January l, 2022. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the amendments will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to IAS 16)
In May 2020, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment.” The amendments prohibit an entity from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the entity is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, an entity will recognize such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January l, 2022. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the amendments will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Onerous Contracts: Cost of Fulfilling a Contract (Amendments to IAS 37)
In May 2020, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 37 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets” to specify which costs an entity includes when assessing whether a contract will be loss-making. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January l, 2022. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the amendments will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2018–2020
In May 2020, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2018-2020, which is amendments to IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards,” IFRS 9, IAS 41 “Agriculture” and the “Illustrative Examples” accompanying IFRS 16. These are minor amendments that clarify, simplify or remove redundant wordings in the standards. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January l, 2022. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the amendments will have on its consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts”
In May 2017, the IASB published IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts,” which establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts, replacing IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts.” IFRS 4 provided entities dispensation to carry on accounting for insurance contracts using national accounting standards, resulting in a multitude of different approaches. IFRS 17 requires all insurance contracts to be accounted for in a consistent manner. Insurance obligations will be accounted for by using present values instead of historical cost.
In June 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 17 to help entities implement the standard and make it easier for them to explain their financial performance. The fundamental principles introduced when the IASB first issued IFRS 17 in May 2017 remain unaffected. The mandatory effective date of applying IFRS 17 was January 1, 2021 when it was originally issued but deferred to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1)
In January 2020, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” to clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments make it easier for entities to determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an
F-9
Table of Contents
uncertain settlement date should be classified as current or non-current. The effective date of applying the amendments was January l, 2022 when they were originally issued, however, in July 2020, the IASB issued an amendment which defers the effective date to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Group is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
3 | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS |
The consolidated financial statements are influenced by estimates and management judgments, which necessarily have to be made in the course of preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and which are continually evaluated. For information on the estimation of the allowance for loan losses which reflects the current and forward-looking impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Note 7 “Loans and Advances.” The critical accounting estimates and judgments are described in Note 3 “Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
4 | SEGMENT ANALYSIS |
Business Segments
The Group’s business segment information is prepared based on the internal reporting system utilized by management to assess the performance of its business segments.
The Group has four main business segments: the Wholesale Business Unit, the Retail Business Unit, the Global Business Unit, which was renamed from the International Business Unit on April 1, 2020, and the Global Markets Business Unit, with the remaining operations recorded in Head office account and others. Due to an internal reorganization of certain SMBC businesses and changes in the revenue management system at SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. (“SMBC Nikko Securities”), both effective from April 1, 2020, the comparative information for the six months ended September 30, 2019 has been restated.
Wholesale Business Unit
The Wholesale Business Unit provides financing, investment management, risk hedging, and settlement services as well as financial solutions that respond to wide-ranging client needs in relation to M&A and other advisory services and leasing, primarily for corporate clients in Japan. This business unit mainly consists of the wholesale businesses of SMBC, SMBC Trust Bank Ltd. (“SMBC Trust Bank”), Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company, Limited (“SMFL”) and SMBC Nikko Securities.
Retail Business Unit
The Retail Business Unit provides financial services to consumers residing in Japan and mainly consists of the retail business of SMBC, SMBC Trust Bank and SMBC Nikko Securities together with three consumer finance companies, Sumitomo Mitsui Card Company, Limited, SMBC Finance Service Co., Ltd., which changed its corporate name from Cedyna Financial Corporation upon merger with former SMBC Finance Service Co., Ltd. in July 2020, and SMBC Consumer Finance Co., Ltd. This business unit offers a wide range of products and services for consumers, including wealth management, settlement services, consumer finance and housing loans, in order to address the financial needs of all individual customers.
Global Business Unit
The Global Business Unit supports the global businesses of a diverse range of clients, such as Japanese companies operating overseas, non-Japanese companies, financial institutions, and government agencies and
F-10
Table of Contents
public corporations of various countries. This business unit provides a variety of tailored products and services to meet customer and market requirements, including loans, deposits, clearing services, trade finance, project finance, loan syndication, derivatives, global cash management services, leasing and securities business such as underwriting activities. This business unit mainly consists of the global businesses of SMBC, SMBC Trust Bank, SMFL, SMBC Nikko Securities and their foreign subsidiaries.
Global Markets Business Unit
The Global Markets Business Unit offers solutions through foreign exchange products, derivatives, bonds, stocks, and other marketable financial products and also undertakes asset liability management operations, which help comprehensively control balance sheet liquidity risks and interest rate risks. This business unit consists of the Treasury Unit of SMBC and the global markets businesses of SMBC Nikko Securities.
Head office account and others
The Head office account and others represent the difference between the aggregate of the Wholesale Business Unit, the Retail Business Unit, the Global Business Unit and the Global Markets Business Unit, and the Group as a whole. It mainly consists of administrative expenses related to headquarters operations and profit or loss from other subsidiaries including The Japan Research Institute, Limited and Sumitomo Mitsui DS Asset Management Company, Limited, which was formed through the merger of Sumitomo Mitsui Asset Management Company, Limited and Daiwa SB Investments Ltd., on April 1, 2019. It also includes internal transactions between the Group companies, which are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Measurement of Segment Profit or Loss
The business segment information is prepared under the management approach. Consolidated net business profit is used as a profit indicator of banks in Japan. Consolidated net business profit of each segment is calculated by deducting general and administrative expenses (i.e., the total of personnel expense, non-personnel expense and tax), and by adding or deducting others (i.e., share of profit or loss of equity-method associates and joint ventures and cooperated profit and loss based on internal managerial accounting) to or from consolidated gross profits (i.e., the total of net interest income, trust fees, net fee and commission income, net trading income and net other operating income). The consolidated gross profits and general and administrative expenses of each segment are prepared for management accounting purposes and not generated solely by aggregating figures prepared under financial accounting. While the Group’s disclosure complies with the requirements on segment information in accordance with IFRS, the figures reported to management and disclosed herein are prepared under accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”). Consequently, the business segment information does not agree with the figures in the consolidated financial statements under IFRS. These differences are addressed in the “Reconciliation of Segmental Results of Operations to Consolidated Income Statements.”
Information regarding the total assets of each segment is not used by management in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Accordingly, total assets are not included in the business segment information.

The allowance for loan losses is measured under the expected credit losses (“ECL”) model which requires the use of complex models and significant assumptions about future economic conditions and credit behavior. For the six months ended September 30, 2020, the obligor grading, macroeconomic factors and additional ECL adjustment used to determine the final ECL reflected the current and forward-looking impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The obligor grades were reviewed based on the most recent information available as appropriate. For the six months ended September 30, 2020, the obligor grades of many corporate borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic were downgraded to the extent that the credit risk on loans and advances to such borrowers was determined to be significantly increased since initial recognition and the allowance for loan losses for them was measured at an amount equal to the lifetime ECL.
The estimates of the key macroeconomic drivers for measuring the ECL were updated reflecting the recent economic forecasts. Although the Group understands there is significant uncertainty in predicting the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on world economies, it was assumed that the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to remain throughout the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, and thereafter the Japanese and global economy will gradually pick up and recover from the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022. Based on the above forecasts of economic conditions, the growth rates of Japanese and global
F-18
Table of Contents
GDP, the key macroeconomic drivers impacting credit risks and losses, are expected to be around minus 5% and minus 4%, respectively for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021, and around 3% and 5%, respectively for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022.
Furthermore, the Group considered whether there is an increased credit risk for some portfolios on which the COVID-19 pandemic would have a material adverse impact but where the impact was not fully incorporated in the ECL model. The Group evaluated the forward-looking impact on credit risks and losses of not only the portfolios significantly affected by declines in market prices such as oil prices, but also certain industry-related portfolios selected based on changes in factors such as the market conditions and bankruptcy trends as a result of the reduction in economic activity by the voluntary restraint of social and business activities. As a consequence, the Group decided to make an additional ECL adjustment.
As a result, for the six months ended September 30, 2020, the allowance for loan losses increased by ¥151,543 million from ¥706,405 million at the beginning of period to ¥857,948 million at the end of the period primarily due to an increase in allowance of lifetime ECL not credit-impaired. The increase was primarily due to downgrade of the obligor grades of many corporate borrowers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Provision for Interest Repayment
Japan has two laws restricting interest rates on loans. The Interest Rate Restriction Act sets the maximum interest rates on loans ranging from 15% to 20%. The Act Regulating the Receipt of Contributions, Receipt of Deposits and Interest Rates capped the interest rate on loans at 29.2% up to June 2010. Interest rates on loans greater than the range of 15-20% but below the maximum allowable of 29.2% were called “gray zone interest,” and many consumer lending and credit card companies were charging interest in this zone.
In January 2006, judicial decisions strictly interpreted the conditions under which consumer finance companies may retain gray zone interest. As a result, claims for refunds of gray zone interest have increased, and consumer lending and credit card companies have recorded a provision for claims for refunds of gray zone interest.
In December 2006, the Government of Japan made amendments to laws regulating money lenders to implement regulatory reforms affecting the consumer finance industry. As a result, in June 2010, the maximum legal interest rates on loans were reduced to the range of 15-20%, and gray zone interest was abolished.
The provision for interest repayment is calculated by estimating the future claims for the refund of gray zone interest, taking into account historical experience such as the number of customer claims for a refund, the amount of repayments and the characteristics of customers, and the length of the period during which claims are expected to be received in the future. The timing of the settlement of these claims is uncertain.
For the six months ended September 30, 2020, the provision for interest repayment decreased primarily due to the use of the provision.
Other Provisions
Other provisions include asset retirement obligations and provisions for loan commitments, reimbursement of deposits, point programs and litigation claims. Most of these provisions occurred in the normal course of business and none of them were individually significant at September 30, 2020 and April 1, 2020.

SMFG issued perpetual subordinated bonds, which are Basel III-compliant Additional Tier 1 capital instruments and are classified as equity under IFRS.
The bonds bear a fixed rate of interest until the first call date. After the first call date, they will bear floating rate of interest unless they are redeemed. SMFG may at any time and in its sole discretion, elect to cancel any interest payment. If cancelled, interest payments are non-cumulative and will not increase to compensate for any short-fall in interest payments in any previous year.
These bonds are undated, have no final maturity date and may be redeemed at SMFG’s option, in whole, but not in part, on the first call date or any interest payment dates thereafter subject to prior confirmation of the Financial Services Agency of Japan (“FSA”).
The principal amount of the bonds may be written down upon the occurrence of certain trigger events. For example, if the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio falls below 5.125% (“Capital Ratio Event”), the principal amount required to fully restore the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio above 5.125% will be written down.

Table of Contents
The principal amount of the bonds which has been written down due to a Capital Ratio Event may be reinstated at SMFG’s option, subject to prior confirmation of the FSA that the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio remains at a sufficiently high level after giving effect to such reinstatement.

18 | CONTINGENCY AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS |
Legal Proceedings
The Group is engaged in various legal proceedings in Japan and a number of overseas jurisdictions, involving claims by and against it, which arise in the normal course of business. The Group does not expect that the outcome of these proceedings will have a significant adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. The Group has recorded adequate provisions with respect to litigation arising out of normal business operations. The Group has not disclosed any contingent liability associated with these legal actions because it cannot reliably be estimated.
Capital Commitments
At September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the Group had ¥47,580 million and ¥48,707 million, respectively, of contractual commitments to acquire property, plant and equipment. The Group’s management is confident that future net revenues and funding will be sufficient to cover these commitments.
Loan Commitments and Financial Guarantees and Other Credit-related Contingent Liabilities
Loan commitment contracts on overdrafts and loans are agreements to lend up to a prescribed amount to customers, as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contracts. However, since many of these loan commitments are expected to expire without being drawn down, the total amount of unused commitments does not necessarily represent an actual future cash flow requirement. Many of these loan commitments include clauses under which the Group can reject an application from customers or reduce the contract amounts in cases where economic conditions change, the Group needs to secure claims, or some other significant event occurs.
Financial guarantees are contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with the terms of the debt instrument. Other credit-related contingent liabilities include performance bonds, which are contracts that provide compensation if another party fails to perform the contractual obligation.
The table below shows the nominal amounts of undrawn loan commitments, and financial guarantees and other credit-related contingent liabilities at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020.

19 | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES |
Accounting policies and the valuation process of fair value measurement for the six months ended September 30, 2020 are consistent with those described in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
Financial Assets and Liabilities Carried at Fair Value
Fair Value Hierarchy
The following tables present the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value based on the three levels of the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
• | quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date (Level 1); |
• | inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and |
• | significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability (Level 3). |

(1) | Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred at the beginning of the period. There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. |
(2) | Derivatives embedded in financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, are separately accounted for, but presented together with the host contract in the consolidated statements of financial position. In these tables, the separated embedded derivatives whose host contracts are carried at amortized cost are presented within others. Although the separated embedded derivatives may have a positive or a negative fair value, they have been presented in these tables as liabilities to be consistent with the host contract. The separated embedded derivatives are measured at fair value using the valuation techniques described in “Derivative financial instruments” in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. |
(3) | Contingent consideration liabilities arising from business combinations, which are measured at fair value using discounted cash flow models, are presented as others. |
The following tables present reconciliations from the beginning to the ending balances for financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

(1) | Settlements for equity instruments include redemption of preferred stocks and receipt of cash distributions which represent a return of investment. |
(2) | Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred at the beginning of the period. For the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, transfers out of Level 3 amounted to ¥(473) million and ¥623 million, respectively. These transfers out of Level 3 are primarily due to an increase in observability of inputs for certain derivative financial instruments, including embedded derivatives. |
(3) | Derivatives embedded in financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, are separately accounted for, but presented together with the host contract in the consolidated statements of financial position. In these tables, the separated embedded derivatives whose host contracts are carried at amortized cost are presented within others. Although the separated embedded derivatives may have a positive or a negative fair value, they have been presented in these tables as liabilities to be consistent with the host contract. |
(4) | Certain financial instruments including embedded derivatives were reclassified between levels of the fair value hierarchy, as described in the tables presenting the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities—Fair Value Hierarchy” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. As a result, the amounts of derivative financial instruments—net at April 1, 2019 decreased by ¥42,464 million, while those of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and others at April 1, 2019 increased by ¥15,944 million and ¥4,563 million, respectively. The amounts of derivative financial instruments—net at September 30, 2019 decreased by ¥36,571 million, while those of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and others at September 30, 2019 increased by ¥16,434 million and ¥9,834 million, respectively. |

The Group has entered into transactions where the fair value is determined using valuation techniques for which not all inputs are observable in the market. The difference between the transaction price and the fair value that would be determined at initial recognition using a valuation technique is referred to as “day one profit and loss,” which is not recognized immediately in the consolidated income statement. The table above shows the day one profit and loss balances, all of which are derived from derivative financial instruments, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss. The release to profit or loss results from the realization due to redemption or sales, and the amortization of the deferred day one profit and loss with the passage of time over the life of the instruments.
Valuation Techniques
Valuation techniques are consistent with those described in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, except as described below.
Financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss
Certain financial liabilities containing embedded derivatives are measured at fair value using valuation techniques. The host contracts of those liabilities are measured at fair value based on the present values of the contractual cash flows for expected remaining maturities, using the relevant credit-adjusted rates based on observable market data on the Group’s funding transactions. The embedded derivatives, which forms part of the contractual cash flows, are measured at fair value by using the same procedures as described in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities—Valuation Techniques—Derivative financial instruments (including embedded derivatives)” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Those financial liabilities are measured at fair value by combining the fair values of the host contracts and

embedded derivatives. The valuation techniques for most of those liabilities use inputs which are not directly observable in the market, including historical correlation coefficients and historical volatilities. If the impact of these unobservable inputs is significant to the fair value for those liabilities, the Group categorizes those liabilities within Level 3.
Significant Unobservable Inputs
The following tables present quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used in fair value measurement for Level 3 financial assets and liabilities at September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020. Qualitative information about significant unobservable inputs is consistent with those described in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.

(1) | Valuation techniques and unobservable inputs for insignificant Level 3 financial assets and liabilities are excluded. |
(2) | The Group has determined that the net asset value represents fair values of certain investment funds. |
(3) | Fair values of certain equity instruments such as unlisted stocks are estimated on the basis of an analysis of the investee’s financial position and results, risk profile, prospects and other factors. A range of key inputs is not provided in these tables as it is not practical to do so given the nature of such valuation techniques. |
(4) | Derivatives embedded in financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, are separately accounted for, but presented together with the host contract in the consolidated statements of financial position. In these tables, the separated embedded derivatives whose host contracts are carried at amortized cost are presented within others. Although the separated embedded derivatives may have a positive or a negative fair value, they have been presented in these tables as liabilities to be consistent with the host contract. |
Sensitivity Analysis
The fair values of certain financial assets and liabilities are measured using valuation techniques based on inputs such as prices and rates that are not observable in the market. The following tables present the impact of the valuation sensitivity, if these inputs fluctuate to the extent deemed reasonable and the volatility of such inputs has a significant impact on the fair value.

(1) | Sensitivity analysis of the financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss is calculated using the same procedures as described in Note 43 “Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities—Sensitivity Analysis—Derivative financial instruments (including embedded derivatives)” of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. |
(2) | As part of risk management, the Group enters into transactions to offset the profit or loss of certain financial instruments, including embedded derivatives. Sensitivity of embedded derivatives related to these transactions is presented as derivative financial instruments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, according to the presentation of the financial instruments arising from these transactions. |
(3) | Derivatives embedded in financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, are separately accounted for, but presented together with the host contract in the consolidated statements of financial position. In these tables, the separated embedded derivatives whose host contracts are carried at amortized cost are presented within others.

Notes:
a. | The fair values of debt instruments at amortized cost are determined using quoted prices in active markets or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets. | |||
b. | (i) | The carrying amounts of loans with no specified repayment dates represent a reasonable estimate of fair value, considering the nature of these financial instruments. | ||
(ii) | Short-term financial assets: The carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of fair value. | |||
(iii) | Long-term financial assets: Except for impaired loans and advances, the fair values are mostly determined using discounted cash flow models taking into account certain factors including counterparties’ credit ratings, pledged collateral, and market interest rates. The fair values of impaired loans and advances are generally determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows over the time period they are expected to be recovered, and may be based on the appraisal value of underlying collateral as appropriate. | |||
c. | Note that some of the financial liabilities in this category include embedded derivatives, which are separately accounted for, but presented together with the host contract. | |||
(i) | The carrying amounts of demand deposits and deposits without maturity represent a reasonable estimate of fair value, considering the nature of these financial instruments. | |||
(ii) | Short-term financial liabilities: The carrying amounts represent a reasonable estimate of fair value. | |||
(iii) | Long-term financial liabilities: The fair values are, in principle, based on the present values of future cash flows calculated using the refinancing rate applied to the same type of instruments for similar remaining maturities. The fair values of debt securities in issue are based on a price quoted by a third party, such as a pricing service or broker, or the present values of future cash flows calculated using the rate derived from yields of bonds issued by SMFG, SMBC and other subsidiaries and publicly offered subordinated bonds published by securities firms. | |||
(iv) | The carrying amounts and fair values of lease liabilities are not included in this table. |
