Financial review
 
Unless the context indicates otherwise, all comparatives referred to in the financial review relate to the six months ended 
30 September 2012.

Salient operational features for the six months under review include:

Total operating income before impairment losses on loans and advances increased by 20.6% to R3,696 million (2012: 
R3,065 million). The components of operating income are analysed further below:
Net interest income was inline with the prior year at R2,388 million (2012:R2,394 million) with the bankbenefiting from an increase in its loan portfolio, offset by less interest earned on surplus cash portfolios given the decline in interest
rates.

- Net interest income was in line with the prior year at R2,388 million (2012: R2,394 million) with the bank benefiting from an increase in its loan portfolio, offset by less interest earned on surplus cash portfolios given the decline in interest rates. 
- Net fee and commission income increased 45.5% to R633 million (2012: R435 million) largely as a result of a good performance from the corporate business with strong growth in project finance renewable energy and structured finance fees. The professional finance business continued to perform well. 
- Investment income increased significantly to R308 million (2012: R15 million) largely due to a solid performance from the bank's unlisted principal investments portfolio. 
- Trading income arising from customer flow increased to R162 million (2012: R45 million) due to increased client activity, notably in forex transactions. 
- Trading income arising from other trading activities increased 20.0% to R210 million (2012: R175 million) reflecting improved activity on the balance sheet. 


Impairments on loans and advances decreased from R403 million to R299 million. The credit loss charge as a percentage 
of average gross core loans and advances has improved from 0.65% at 31 March 2013 to 0.42%. The percentage of 
default loans (net of impairments but before taking collateral into account) to core loans and advances amounts to 2.12% 
(31 March 2013: 1.93%). The ratio of collateral to default loans (net of impairments) remains satisfactory at 1.36 times 
(31 March 2013: 1.44 times).

Total operating expenses at R1,929 million were 16.2% higher than the prior year (2012: R1,660 million) largely as a 
result of increased personnel costs and variable remuneration given improved profitability. The ratio of total operating 
costs to total operating income amounts to 52.2% (2012: 54.2%). 

As a result of the foregoing factors, profit before taxation increased by 46.5% to R1,468 million (2012: R1,002 million).

Accounting policies and disclosures

These interim condensed consolidated financial results have been prepared in terms of the recognition and measurement 
criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards, the presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34, Interim 
Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guide as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and the 
Companies Act 71, of 2008.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the results for the six months ended 30 September 2013 are 
consistent with those adopted in the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2013 except as noted below.
The group has adopted the following new standards and amendments to standards, including any consequential 
amendments to other standards: IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, IFRS 13 
Fair Value Measurement, Presentation of other comprehensive income (Amendments to IAS 1), IAS19 Employee 
Benefits. Adoption of IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IAS 19 has had no material impact on the group. IFRS 13 has been applied 
prospectively from 1 April 2013. The standard defines fair value as being a market-based measurement and sets out in 
a single IFRS a framework for the measurement of fair value. Application of the standard has not had a material impact 
on the recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities of the group. 

The financial results have been prepared under the supervision of Glynn Burger, the Group Risk and Finance Director. 
The summary financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2013 will be posted to stakeholders on 
29 November 2013. These summary financial statements will be available on the group's website at the same date.

Financial instruments carried at fair value

The table below analyses recurring fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities. These fair value 
measurements are categorised into different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to the valuation 
technique used. The different levels are identified as follows:

Level 1  quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2  inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either 
          directly (ie as prices) or indirectly (ie derived from prices)
Level 3  inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)

                                                                       Total         Fair value measurement

*All reclassifications into Level 3 at 1 April 2013 occurred as a result of inputs to the valuation model being regarded as unobservable as a result of 
applying the principles in IFRS 13.

Observable inputs are defined as inputs that are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, 
and that reflect the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. All other inputs have been considered to be 
unobservable.

The following table quantifies the gains or losses included in the income statement recognised on level 3 financial 
instruments:

Sensitivity of fair values to reasonably possible alternative assumptions by Level 3 instrument type
The fair value of financial instruments in level 3 are measured using valuation techniques that incorporate assumptions 
that are not evidenced by prices from observable market data. The following table shows the sensitivity of these fair 
values to reasonably possible alternative assumptions, determined at a transactional level:

                                                                                  Reflected in the income
