Financial review
Salient operational features of the year under review include:

Total operating income before impairment losses on loans and advances increased by 9.0% to R7,216 million
(2013: R6,620 million). The components of operating income are analysed further below:
- Net interest income was marginally ahead of the prior year at R4,916 million (2013: R4,883 million) with the bank
  benefiting from an increase in its loan portfolio, offset by a lower return earned on the credit investment portfolio.
- Net fee and commission income increased 47.9% to R1,393 million (2013: R942 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 decreased by 27.2% to R334 million (2013: R459 million) largely due to a lower return earned on
  the bank's fixed income portfolio. The bank's unlisted principal investments portfolio continued to perform well.
- Trading income arising from customer flow increased to R343 million (2013: R119 million) due to increased client
  activity, notably in forex transactions.
- Trading income arising from other trading activities increased 6.8% to R235 million (2013: R220 million) reflecting
  improved activity on the balance sheet.

Impairments on loans and advances decreased from R868 million to R638 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 0.44%. The
percentage of default loans (net of impairments but before taking collateral into account) to core loans and advances
amounts to 1.50% (2013: 1.93%). The ratio of collateral to default loans (net of impairments) remains satisfactory at
1.55 times (2013: 1.44 times).

The ratio of total operating costs to total operating income amounts to 57.0% (2013: 54.8%). Total operating expenses
at R4,113 million were 13.3% higher than the prior year (2013: R3,629 million) largely as a result of increased variable
remuneration given improved profitability.

As a result of the foregoing factors profit before taxation increased by 16.1% to R2,465 million (2013: R2,123 million).

Accounting policies and disclosures
These annual 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 Guides 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 year ended 31 March 2014 are consistent with

material impact on the Group. IFRS 13 has been applied prospectively from 1 April 2013. The standard defines fair value
as being an exit price based measurement and sets out in a single IFRS a framework for the measurement of fair value.

has resulted in additional disclosures.

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 that the entity can access at the
          measurement date.
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).

                                                                  Financial           Level within the

^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. For the year ended 31 March 2014, investments to the value of R239 million has been transferred into Level 3 due to inputs into the valuation
 model becoming unobservable. R126 million has been transferred out of Level 3 due to inputs becoming observable.

The group transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy when the observability of inputs change or if the valuation
methods change.
The following table quantifies the gains or (losses) included in the income statement recognised on Level 3 financial instruments:

R151.2 million of the total loss shown in investment income is an unrealised loss.

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:

-Other – The valuation sensitivity for the private equity and embedded derivates (profit share portfolios) has been assessed on an adjustment to various inputs such
 as expected cash flows, discount rates, PE ratios. It is deemed appropriate to reflect the outcome in totalility for the purposes of this analysis.
