Liquidity disclosures
Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR)
The objective of the LCR is to promote the short-term resilience of the liquidity risk profile of banks by
ensuring that they have sufficient high quality liquid assets to survive a significant stress scenario lasting 30
calendar days.
The minimum LCR requirement in South Africa was 90% for 2018, increasing to 100% from 1 January 2019.
This applies to both Investec Bank Limited (IBL) (solo basis) and Investec Bank Limited (IBL) consolidated
group.
In accordance with the provisions of section 6(6) of the South African Banks Act 1990 (Act No. 94 of 1990),
banks are directed to comply with the relevant LCR disclosure requirements. This disclosure is in
accordance with Pillar 3 of the Basel III liquidity accord, as specified by BCBS d400 (2017) and Directive
D1/2018.
The following table sets out the LCR for IBL (solo basis) and IBL consolidated group as at 31 December
2018:
IBL (solo basis) – Total IBL consolidated group – Total
weighted value weighted value
High quality liquid assets (HQLA) (R’mn) 80,356 81,386
Net cash outflows (R’mn) 57,883 54,969
Actual LCR 139.2% 148.6%
Required LCR (from 1 January 2019) 100% 100%
The values in the table are calculated as the simple average of 92 calendar daily values over the period 1 October 2018 to 31
December 2018 for IBL (solo basis). IBL consolidated group values use daily values for IBL (solo basis), while those for other group
entities use the average of October, November and December 2018 month-end values.
Net stable funding ratio (NSFR)
The objective of the NSFR is to promote the resilience in the banking sector by requiring banks to maintain a
stable funding profile in relation to the composition of their assets and off-balance sheet activities on an
ongoing structural basis. By ensuring that banks do not embark on excessive maturity transformation that is
not sustainable, the NSFR is intended to reduce the likelihood that disruptions to a bank's funding sources
would erode its liquidity position, increasing its risk of failure and potentially lead to broader systemic risk.
The minimum NSFR requirement in South Africa is 100%. This applies to both IBL (solo basis) and IBL
consolidated group.
In accordance with the provisions of section 6(6) of the South African Banks Act 1990 (Act No. 94 of 1990),
banks are directed to comply with the relevant NSFR disclosure requirements. This disclosure is in
accordance with Pillar 3 of the Basel III liquidity accord, as specified by Directive 11/2015 and Directive
01/2018.
The following table sets out the NSFR for IBL (solo basis) and IBL consolidated group as at 31 December
2018:
IBL (solo basis) IBL consolidated group
Actual NSFR 110.9% 112.3%
Required NSFR 100% 100%
