AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.

ABOUT OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These are the financial statements for ANZ New Zealand for the year ended 30 September 2022. The Ultimate Parent Bank is incorporated in Australia
and is also registered in New Zealand (NZ Branch). The NZ Branch is domiciled in New Zealand, and the address of the NZ Branch’s registered office
and its principal place of business is Level 10, 171 Featherston Street, Wellington, New Zealand.
On 11 November 2022, the Directors resolved to authorise the issue of these financial statements.
Information in the financial statements is included only to the extent we consider it material and relevant to the understanding of the financial
statements. A disclosure is considered material and relevant if, for example:• the amount is significant in size (quantitative factor);• the information is significant by nature (qualitative factor);• the user cannot understand ANZ New Zealand’s results without the specific disclosure (qualitative factor);• the information is critical to a user’s understanding of the impact of significant changes in ANZ New Zealand’s business during the period – forexample: business acquisitions or disposals (qualitative factor);• the information relates to an aspect of ANZ New Zealand’s operations that is important to its future performance (qualitative factor); or• the information is required under legislative requirements of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 or by ANZ New Zealand’s principal
regulator, RBNZ.
This section of the financial statements:• outlines the basis upon which ANZ New Zealand’s financial statements have been prepared; and• discusses any new accounting standards or regulations that directly impact the financial statements.

BASIS OF PREPARATION
These financial statements are general purpose (Tier 1) financial statements prepared by a ‘for profit’ entity, in accordance with the requirements of
the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. These financial statements comply with:• New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP), as defined in the Financial Reporting Act 2013;• New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards, as
appropriate for publicly accountable for-profit entities; and• International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
We present the financial statements of ANZ New Zealand in New Zealand dollars, which is ANZ New Zealand’s functional and presentation currency.
We have rounded values to the nearest million dollars (NZ$m), unless otherwise stated.

BASIS OF MEASUREMENT
We have prepared the financial information in accordance with the historical cost basis - except for the following assets and liabilities which we havestated at their fair value:• derivative financial instruments;• financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI); and• financial instruments measured at fair value through profit and loss.

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATIONThe consolidated financial statements of ANZ New Zealand comprise the financial statements of the NZ Branch and all of the New Zealand businessesof all the subsidiaries of the Ultimate Parent Bank. An entity, including a structured entity, is considered a subsidiary of ANZ New Zealand when we
determine that ANZ New Zealand has control over the entity. Control exists when ANZ New Zealand is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns
from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. We assess power by examining
existing rights that give ANZ New Zealand the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the entity. We have eliminated, on consolidation, theeffect of all transactions between entities in ANZ New Zealand.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the relevant functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. At thereporting date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the relevant spot rate.
Any foreign currency translation gains or losses that arise are included in profit or loss in the period they arise.
We measure translation differences on non-monetary items at fair value through profit or loss and report them as part of the fair value gain or loss onthese items. For non-monetary items classified as investment securities measured at FVOCI, translation differences are included in othercomprehensive income.

FIDUCIARY ACTIVITIESANZ New Zealand provides fiduciary services to third parties including custody, nominee and trustee services. This involves ANZ New Zealand holding
assets on behalf of third parties and making decisions regarding the purchase and sale of financial instruments. If ANZ New Zealand is not thebeneficial owner or does not control the assets, then we do not recognise these transactions in these financial statements, except when required byaccounting standards or another legislative requirement.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.

ABOUT OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
In the process of applying ANZ New Zealand’s accounting policies, management has made a number of judgements and applied estimatesand assumptions about past and future events. Further information on the key judgements and estimates that we consider material to thefinancial statements are contained within each relevant note to the financial statements.
Whilst the course of the COVID-19 pandemic is moderating and the management of its impact on the populace, businesses and economic
activity is better understood, the responses of consumers, business and governments remain uncertain. Compounding the effects of thepandemic are mounting geopolitical tensions, global supply chain disruptions, the conflict in Ukraine, commodity price pressures, andincreasing inflation and interest rates impacting the economy. Thus, there remains an elevated level of estimation uncertainty involved in the
preparation of these financial statements.
ANZ New Zealand has made various accounting estimates in these financial statements based on forecasts of economic conditions whichreflect expectations and assumptions at 30 September 2022 about future events considered reasonable in the circumstances. There is aconsiderable degree of judgement involved in preparing these estimates. Actual economic conditions are likely to be different from those
forecast since anticipated events frequently do not occur as expected, and the effect of these differences may significantly impact
accounting estimates included in these financial statements. The significant accounting estimates impacted by these forecasts andassociated uncertainties are predominantly related to expected credit losses and recoverable amounts of non-financial assets.
The impact of these uncertainties on each of these accounting estimates is discussed further in the relevant notes of these financial
statements. Readers should consider these disclosures in light of the inherent uncertainties described above.

INTEREST RATE BENCHMARK REFORM
Interbank offered rates (IBORs) have played a critical role in global financial markets, serving as reference rates for derivatives, loans and securities, andin the valuation of financial instruments. The IBOR reforms have a wide-ranging impact for ANZ New Zealand and our customers given thefundamental differences between IBORs and risk-free rates (RFRs). The key difference between IBORs and RFRs is that IBOR rates include a term andbank credit risk premium, whereas RFRs do not. As a result of these differences, adjustments are required to an RFR to ensure contracts referencing an
IBOR rate transition on an economically comparable basis.
Update on ANZ New Zealand’s approach to interest rate benchmark reform
In line with the regulatory announcements made in 2021, the majority of IBOR rates, including Pound Sterling (GBP), Euro (EUR), Swiss Franc (CHF),
Japanese Yen (JPY), and the US Dollar (USD) 1-week and 2-month LIBOR rate settings ceased on 31 December 2021 and have been replaced byalternative RFRs. This transition had an immaterial impact to ANZ New Zealand’s profit and loss. Through its loan and derivative transactions withcustomers, issuance of debt and its asset and liability management activities ANZ New Zealand continues to have exposure to the remaining US dollar
LIBOR settings and other IBOR-related benchmarks that are due to largely cease by 30 June 2023.
ANZ New Zealand continues to manage the transition from the remaining US dollar LIBOR tenors and other remaining IBOR settings to RFRs through a
Benchmark Transition Programme (the programme). The programme is responsible for managing the risks associated with the transition including
operational, market, legal, conduct and financial reporting risks that may arise.
Exposures subject to benchmark reform as at 30 September 2022
The table below shows ANZ New Zealand’s exposures to interest rate benchmarks subject to IBOR reform. These are financial instruments that
contractually reference an IBOR benchmark planned to transition to an RFR, and have a contractual maturity date beyond the planned IBOR cessationdate.

For cross-currency swaps, where both the receive and pay legs are in currencies subject to reform, ANZ New Zealand discloses the New Zealand dollar-equivalent notional amounts for both. Where
one leg of a swap is subject to reform, ANZ New Zealand discloses the notional amount of the receive leg.
For multi-currency IBOR referenced facilities, the undrawn balance has been allocated to the pricing currency of the facility or where there are multiple pricing currencies impacted by cessation, themost likely currency of drawdown.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ADOPTED IN THE PERIOD
There were no new accounting standards or interpretations adopted in 2022 that had a significant effect on ANZ New Zealand. Accounting policies
have been consistently applied unless otherwise noted.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT EARLY ADOPTED
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been published but are not mandatory for the financial statements
for the year ended 30 September 2022, and have not been applied by ANZ New Zealand in preparing these financial statements. Further details ofthese are set out below.
GENERAL HEDGE ACCOUNTINGNZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (NZ IFRS 9) introduces new hedge accounting requirements which more closely align accounting with risk
management activities undertaken when hedging both financial and non-financial risks. NZ IFRS 9 provides ANZ New Zealand with an accounting
policy choice to continue to apply the NZ IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (NZ IAS 39) hedge accounting requirements until
the IASB’s ongoing project on macro hedge accounting is completed. ANZ New Zealand continues to apply the hedge accounting requirements of
NZ IAS 39.
DEFERRED TAX RELATED TO ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARISING FROM A SINGLE TRANSACTION
Amendments to New Zealand Accounting Standards – Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction amends NZ IAS 12
Income Taxes and clarifies that entities are required to recognise deferred tax on transactions for which there is both an asset and a liability and thatgive rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. This may include transactions such as leases and decommissioning or restoration
obligations. This amendment is effective for ANZ New Zealand from 1 October 2023 and is not expected to have a significant impact.

OPERATING INCOME (continued)
RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENTNET INTEREST INCOME
Interest income and expense
We recognise interest income and expense in net interest income for all financial instruments, including those classified as held for trading,assets measured at FVOCI and at fair value through profit or loss. We use the effective interest rate method to calculate the amortised cost ofassets held at amortised cost and to recognise interest income on financial assets measured at FVOCI. The effective interest rate is the rate that
discounts the stream of estimated future cash receipts or payments over the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, ashorter period, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. For assets subject to prepayment, we determine their expected lifeon the basis of historical behaviour of the particular asset portfolio - taking into account contractual obligations and prepayment experience.
We recognise fees and costs, which form an integral part of the financial instrument (for example loan origination fees and costs), using theeffective interest rate method. These are presented as part of interest income or expense depending on whether the underlying financial
instrument is a financial asset or financial liability.
OTHER OPERATING INCOME
Fee and commission income
We recognise fee and commission revenue arising from contracts with customers (a) over time when the performance obligation is satisfied acrossmore than one reporting period or (b) at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied immediately or is satisfied within one reporting
period.
• lending fees exclude fees treated as part of the effective yield calculation of interest income. Lending fees include certain guarantee andcommitment fees where the loan or guarantee is not likely to be drawn upon, and other fees charged for providing customers a distinct goodor service that are recognised separately from the underlying lending product.
• non-lending fees include fees associated with deposit and credit card accounts, interchange fees and fees charged for specific customertransactions such as international money transfers. Where ANZ New Zealand provides multiple goods or services to a customer under thesame contract, ANZ New Zealand allocates the transaction price of the contract to distinct performance obligations based on the relative
stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. Revenue is recognised as each performance obligation is satisfied.
• commissions represent fees from third parties where we act as an agent by arranging a third party (such as an insurance provider) to provide
goods and services to a customer. In such cases, we are not primarily responsible for providing the underlying good or service to thecustomer. If ANZ New Zealand collects funds on behalf of a third party when acting as an agent, we only recognise the net commission it
retains as revenue. When the commission is variable based on factors outside our control (such as a trail commission), revenue is only
recognised if it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the variable amount will not be required in future periods.
• funds management income represents fees earned from customers for providing financial advice and fees for asset management services andadvice provided to investment funds. Revenue is recognised either at the point the financial advice is provided or over the period in which theasset management services are delivered.
Net foreign exchange earnings and other financial instruments income
We recognise the following as net foreign exchange earnings and other financial instruments income:• exchange rate differences arising on the settlement of monetary items and translation differences on monetary items translated at rates
different to those at which they were initially recognised;• fair value movements (excluding realised and accrued interest) on derivatives that we use to manage interest rate and foreign exchange risk
on funding instruments not designated as accounting hedges;• the ineffective portions of fair value hedges and cash flow hedges;• immediately upon sale or repayment of a hedged item, the unamortised fair value adjustments to items designated as fair value hedges andamounts accumulated in equity related to designated cash flow hedges;• fair value movements on financial assets and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss or held for trading;• amounts released from the FVOCI reserve when a debt instrument classified as FVOCI is sold; and• the gain or loss on derecognition of financial assets or liabilities measured at amortised cost.
SHARE OF ASSOCIATES’ PROFIT / (LOSS)The equity method is applied to accounting for associates. Under the equity method, ANZ New Zealand’s share of the after tax results of associates is
included in the income statement and the statement of comprehensive income.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENTOPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses are recognised as services are provided to ANZ New Zealand, over the period in which an asset is consumed, or once a liability iscreated.
SALARIES AND RELATED COSTS – ANNUAL LEAVE, LONG SERVICE LEAVE AND OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Wages and salaries, annual leave, and other employee entitlements expected to be paid or settled within twelve months of employees rendering
service are measured at their nominal amounts using remuneration rates that ANZ New Zealand expects to pay when the liabilities are settled.
We accrue employee entitlements relating to long service leave using an actuarial calculation. It includes assumptions regarding staff departures,leave utilisation and future salary increases. The result is then discounted using market yields at the reporting date. The market yields are determinedfrom a blended rate of government bonds with terms to maturity that closely match the estimated future cash outflows.
If we expect to pay short term cash bonuses, then a liability is recognised when ANZ New Zealand has a present legal or constructive obligation to
pay this amount (as a result of past service provided by the employee) and the obligation can be reliably measured.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Income tax expense comprises both current and deferred taxes and is based on the accounting profit adjusted for differences in the accounting andtax treatments of income and expenses (that is, taxable income). We recognise tax expense in profit or loss except when the tax relates to items
recognised directly in equity and other comprehensive income, in which case we recognise the tax directly in equity or other comprehensive
income respectively.
CURRENT TAX EXPENSE
Current tax is the tax we expect to pay on taxable income for the year, based on tax rates (and tax laws) which are enacted at the reporting date. We
recognise current tax as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).
DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIESWe account for deferred tax using the balance sheet method. Deferred tax arises because the accounting income is not always the same as thetaxable income. This creates temporary differences, which usually reverse over time. Until they reverse, we recognise a deferred tax asset, or liability,
on the balance sheet. We measure deferred taxes at the tax rates that we expect will apply to the period(s) when the asset is realised, or the liability
settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
We offset current and deferred tax assets and liabilities only to the extent that:• they relate to income taxes imposed by the same taxation authority;• there is a legal right and intention to settle on a net basis; and• it is allowed under the tax law of the relevant jurisdiction.

Imputation credits available to the Bank are shown separately as this is relevant for holders of perpetual preference shares (PPS, refer to Note 21 shareholders’ equity) issued by the Bank.

A number of companies within ANZ New Zealand are members of the New Zealand resident imputation group. The imputation credit balance for
ANZ New Zealand includes the imputation credit balance in relation to both the New Zealand resident imputation group and other companies within
ANZ New Zealand that are not in the New Zealand resident imputation group. The imputation credit balance available includes imputation creditsthat will arise from the payment of the amount of provision for income tax as at the reporting date.
The Bank, including other entities in the same income tax consolidated group as the Bank (Bank consolidated imputation group) exited the New
Zealand resident imputation group from 1 October 2022. The imputation credit balance available to the Bank consolidated imputation group includes
imputation credits that will arise from the payment of the amount of provision for income tax as at the reporting date.

6. SEGMENT REPORTINGDESCRIPTION OF SEGMENTS
ANZ New Zealand is organised into three major business segments for segment reporting purposes - Personal, Business and Institutional. Centralised
back office and corporate functions support these segments. These segments are consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating
decision maker, being the Bank’s Chief Executive Officer.
During the year ended 30 September 2021, ANZ New Zealand reorganised into the following business segments: Personal (comprising the Personaland Funds Management business units), Business, and Institutional. These are intended to better align ANZ New Zealand’s internal business with theneeds of its primary customer groups, home owners and business owners. These changes were implemented from August 2021 and have beenaccounted for prospectively. During the year ended 30 September 2022, there were net movements of approximately NZ$2.1 billion of loans andadvances and NZ$1.6 billion of customer deposits from Business to Personal. Comparative amounts have not been restated because the overall
impact on the financial performance and financial position of the affected segments, Personal and Business, is not considered material.
Personal
Personal provides a full range of banking and wealth management services to consumer and private banking customers. We deliver our services via
our internet and app-based digital solutions and a network of branches, mortgage specialists, relationship managers and contact centres.
Business
Business provides a full range of banking services including small business banking, through our digital, branch and contact centre channels, andtraditional relationship banking and sophisticated financial solutions through dedicated managers. These cover privately owned small, medium andlarge enterprises, the agricultural business segment, government and government related entities.
Institutional
The Institutional division services governments, global institutional and corporate customers via the following business units:• Transaction Banking provides customers with working capital and liquidity solutions including documentary trade, supply chain financing,commodity financing as well as cash management solutions, deposits, payments and clearing.
• Corporate Finance provides customers with loan products, loan syndication, specialised loan structuring and execution, project and export
finance, debt structuring and acquisition finance and corporate advisory services.
• Markets provides customers with risk management services on foreign exchange, interest rates, credit, commodities and debt capital markets inaddition to managing ANZ New Zealand’s interest rate exposure and high quality liquid asset portfolio.
Other
Other includes treasury and back office support functions, none of which constitutes a separately reportable segment.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FINANCIAL ASSETS
Outlined below is a description of how we classify and measure financial assets as they apply to subsequent note disclosures.

CLASSIFICATION AND MEASUREMENT
Financial assets - general
There are three measurement classifications for financial assets under NZ IFRS 9: amortised cost, fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and fair value
through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Financial assets are classified into these measurement classifications on the basis of two criteria:• the business model within which the financial asset is managed; and• the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset (specifically whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments ofprincipal and interest).
The resultant financial asset classifications are as follows:• Amortised cost: financial assets with contractual cash flows that comprise solely payments of principal and interest and which are held in abusiness model whose objective is to collect their cash flows;• FVOCI: financial assets with contractual cash flows that comprise solely payments of principal and interest and which are held in a businessmodel whose objective is to collect their cash flows or to sell the assets; and• FVTPL: any other financial assets not falling into the categories above are measured at FVTPL.
Fair value option for financial assets
A financial asset may be irrevocably designated on initial recognition:• at FVTPL when the designation eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise; or• at FVOCI for investments in equity securities, where that instrument is neither held for trading nor contingent consideration recognised by an
acquirer in a business combination.

7.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and other balances, as outlined below, that are convertible into cash with an insignificant risk ofchanges in value and with remaining maturities of three months or less, including reverse repurchase agreements.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
Trading securities are financial instruments we either:• acquire principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term; or• hold as part of a portfolio we manage for short-term profit making.
We recognise purchases and sales of trading securities on trade date:• initially, we measure them at fair value; and• subsequently, we measure them in the balance sheet at their fair value with any change in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Judgement is required when applying the valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of trading securities not valued using
quoted market prices. Refer to Note 16 fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities for further details.

(6,954)(726)(7,680)FEATURES
Derivative financial instruments are contracts:• whose value is derived from an underlying price index (or other variable) defined in the contract – sometimes the value is derived from morethan one variable;• that require little or no initial net investment; and• that are settled at a future date.
Movements in the price of the underlying variables, which cause the value of the contract to fluctuate, are reflected in the fair value of the derivative.

PURPOSEANZ New Zealand’s derivative financial instruments have been categorised as follows:
Trading

Derivatives held in order to:• meet customer needs for managing their own risks.
• manage risks in ANZ New Zealand that are not in a designated hedge accounting relationship (some elementsof balance sheet management).
• undertake market making and positioning activities to generate profits from short-term fluctuations in prices or
margins.

Designated in hedging
relationships

Derivatives designated into hedge accounting relationships in order to minimise profit or loss volatility by matching
movements in underlying positions relating to:• hedges of ANZ New Zealand’s exposures to interest rate risk and currency risk.
• hedges of other exposures relating to non-trading positions.

TYPES
ANZ New Zealand offers or uses four different types of derivative financial instruments:
Forwards

A contract documenting the rate of interest, or the currency exchange rate, to be paid or received on a notional
principal amount at a future date.

Futures

An exchange traded contract in which the parties agree to buy or sell an asset in the future for a price agreed on thetransaction date, with a net settlement in cash paid on the future date without physical delivery of the asset.

Swaps

A contract in which two parties exchange one series of cash flows for another.

Options

A contract in which the buyer of the contract has the right - but not the obligation - to buy (known as a ‘call option’)or to sell (known as a ‘put option’) an asset or instrument at a set price on a future date. The seller has thecorresponding obligation to fulfil the transaction to sell or buy the asset or instrument if the buyer exercises theoption.

RISKS MANAGED
ANZ New Zealand offers and uses the instruments described above to manage fluctuations in the following market factors:
Foreign exchange

Currencies at current or determined rates of exchange.

Interest rate

Fixed or variable interest rates applying to money lent, deposited or borrowed.

Commodity

Soft commodities (that is, agricultural products such as wheat, coffee, cocoa, and sugar) and hard commodities (thatis, mined products such as gold, oil and gas).

CreditRisk of default by customers or third parties.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)

ANZ New Zealand uses central clearing counterparties and exchanges to settle derivative transactions. Different arrangements for posting of collateralexist with these exchanges:••

some transactions are subject to clearing arrangements which result in separate recognition of collateral assets and liabilities, with the carrying
values of the associated derivative assets and liabilities held at their fair value.
other transactions are legally settled by the payment or receipt of collateral which reduces the carrying values of the related derivative
instruments by the amount paid or received.

Fair value hedge

Cash flow hedge

Objective of thishedgingarrangement

To hedge our exposure to changes to the fair value of arecognised asset or liability or unrecognised firm
commitment caused by interest rate or foreign currency
movements.

To hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows of arecognised asset or liability, a firm commitment or ahighly probable forecast transaction caused by interest
rate, foreign currency and other price movements.

Recognition ofeffective hedge
portionThe following are recognised in profit or loss at the sametime:
• all changes in the fair value of the underlying item
relating to the hedged risk; and• the change in the fair value of the derivatives.

We recognise the effective portion of changes in the fairvalue of derivatives designated as a cash flow hedge inthe cash flow hedge reserve.

Recognition of ineffective
hedge portion

Recognised immediately in other operating income.

If a hedging instrument
expires, or is sold,terminated, or exercised;or no longer qualifies forhedge accounting

When we recognise the hedged item in profit or loss, werecognise the related unamortised fair value adjustmentin profit or loss. This may occur over time if the hedged
item is amortised to profit or loss as part of the effective
yield over the period to maturity.

Only when we recognise the hedged item in profit orloss is the amount previously deferred in the cash flow
hedge reserve transferred to profit or loss.

Hedged item sold or
repaidWe recognise the unamortised fair value adjustment
immediately in profit or loss.

Amounts accumulated in equity are transferred
immediately to profit or loss.

Under the policy choice provided by NZ IFRS 9, ANZ New Zealand has continued to apply the hedge accounting requirements of NZ IAS 39.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
Recognition

Initially and at each reporting date, we recognise all derivatives at fair value. If the fair value of a derivative ispositive, then we carry it as an asset, but if its value is negative, then we carry it as a liability.
Valuation adjustments are integral in determining the fair value of derivatives. This includes:• a credit valuation adjustment (CVA) to reflect the counterparty risk and/or event of default; and• a funding valuation adjustment (FVA) to account for funding costs and benefits in the derivatives portfolio.

Derecognition ofassets and liabilities

We remove derivative assets from our balance sheet when the contracts expire or we have transferred
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. We remove derivative liabilities from our balance sheet
when ANZ New Zealand’s contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired.
With respect to derivatives cleared through a central clearing counterparty or exchange, derivative assets or
liabilities may be derecognised in accordance with the principle above when collateral is settled, dependingon the legal arrangements in place for each instrument.

Impact on theincome statement

The recognition of gains or losses on derivative financial instruments depends on whether the derivative isheld for trading or is designated into a hedging relationship. For derivative financial instruments held for
trading, gains or losses from changes in the fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
For an instrument designated in a hedging relationship, the recognition of gains or losses depends on thenature of the item being hedged. Refer to the table on page 20 for details of the recognition approach applied
for each type of hedge accounting relationship.
Sources of hedge ineffectiveness may arise from differences in the interest rate reference rate, margins, or rate
set differences and differences in discounting between the hedged items and the hedging instruments.

Hedge effectivenessTo qualify for hedge accounting under NZ IAS 39, a hedge relationship is expected to be highly effective. A
hedge relationship is highly effective only if the following conditions are met:
• the hedge is expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows
attributable to the hedged risk during the period for which the hedge is designated (prospective
effectiveness); and• the actual results of the hedge are within the range of 80-125% (retrospective effectiveness).
ANZ New Zealand monitors hedge effectiveness on a regular basis but at a minimum at least at each reportingdate.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Judgement is required when we select the valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of derivatives, particularly the selectionof valuation inputs that are not readily observable, and the application of valuation adjustments to certain derivatives. Refer to Note 16
fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities for further details.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
Investment securities are those financial assets in security form (that is, transferable debt or equity instruments) that are not held for trading
purposes. By way of exception, bills of exchange (a form of security/transferable instrument) which are used to facilitate ANZ New Zealand’s
customer lending activities are classified as loans and advances (rather than investment securities) to better reflect the substance of thearrangement.
Equity investments not held for trading purposes may be designated at FVOCI on an instrument by instrument basis. If this election is made, gains orlosses are not reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss on disposal of the investment. However, gains or losses may bereclassified within equity.
Assets disclosed as investment securities are subject to the general classification and measurement policy for financial assets outlined on page 17.
Additionally, expected credit losses associated with ‘Investment securities - debt securities at fair value through other comprehensive income’ arerecognised and measured in accordance with the accounting policy outlined in Note 12 allowance for expected credit losses, and the allowance for
expected credit loss is recognised in the FVOCI reserve in equity with a corresponding charge to profit or loss.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Judgement is required when we select valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of assets not valued using quoted market
prices, particularly the selection of valuation inputs that are not readily observable. Refer to Note 16 fair value of financial assets andfinancial liabilities for further details.

ANZ New Zealand has reviewed the historic accounting treatment of a transaction product arrangement comprised of both overdraft and deposit
balances and concluded that, under NZ IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation, the deposit amounts cannot be netted against the overdraft
balances drawn under the arrangement. The application of netting reduced the amounts presented for overdrafts (above) and customer deposits(Note 13 deposits and other borrowings) by NZ$178 million as at 30 September 2021. Comparative amounts have not been restated as the impact is
not considered material.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
Loans and advances are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are facilities
ANZ New Zealand provides directly to customers or through third party channels.
Loans and advances are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of the loan or advance, which areprimarily brokerage and other origination costs which we amortise over the estimated life of the loan. Subsequently, we then measure loans andadvances at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, net of any allowance for expected credit losses.
ANZ New Zealand enters into transactions in which it transfers financial assets that are recognised on its balance sheet. When ANZ New Zealandretains substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets remain on ANZ New Zealand’s balance sheet, however
if substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred, ANZ New Zealand derecognises the asset. If the risks and rewards are partially retained andcontrol over the asset is lost, then ANZ New Zealand derecognises the asset. If control over the asset is not lost, then ANZ New Zealand continues torecognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement.
We separately recognise the rights and obligations retained, or created, in the transfer of assets as appropriate.
Assets disclosed as net loans and advances are subject to the general classification and measurement policy for financial assets outlined on page 17.
Additionally, expected credit losses associated with loans and advances at amortised cost are recognised and measured in accordance with theaccounting policy outlined in Note 12 allowance for expected credit losses.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

12. ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES (continued)
RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENTEXPECTED CREDIT LOSS MODEL
The measurement of expected credit losses reflects an unbiased, probability weighted prediction which evaluates a range of scenarios and takes
into account the time value of money, past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.
Expected credit losses are either measured over 12 months or the expected lifetime of the financial asset, depending on credit deterioration sinceorigination, according to the following three-stage approach:•••Stage 1: At the origination of a financial asset, and where there has not been a Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR) since origination, an
allowance equivalent to 12 months ECL is recognised reflecting the expected credit losses resulting from default events that are possible
within the next 12 months from the reporting date. For instruments with a remaining maturity of less than 12 months, expected credit
losses are estimated based on default events that are possible over the remaining time to maturity.
Stage 2: Where there has been a SICR since origination, an allowance equivalent to lifetime ECL is recognised reflecting expected credit
losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. If credit risk were to improve in a subsequent
period such that the increase in credit risk since origination is no longer considered significant, the exposure returns to a Stage 1classification with ECL measured accordingly.
Stage 3: Where there is objective evidence of impairment, an allowance equivalent to lifetime ECL is recognised.

Expected credit losses are estimated on a collective basis for exposures in Stage 1 and Stage 2, and on either a collective or individual basis whentransferred to Stage 3.
MEASUREMENT OF EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSECL is calculated as the product of the following credit risk factors at a facility level, discounted to incorporate the time value of money:•••

Probability of default (PD) – the estimate of the likelihood that a borrower will default over a given period;
Exposure at default (EAD) – the expected balance sheet exposure at default taking into account repayments of principal and interest,
expected additional drawdowns and accrued interest; andLoss given default (LGD) – the expected loss in the event of the borrower defaulting, expressed as a percentage of the facility’s EAD, taking
into account direct and indirect recovery costs.

These credit risk factors are adjusted for current and forward-looking information through the use of macroeconomic variables.
EXPECTED LIFE
When estimating ECL for exposures in Stage 2 and 3, ANZ New Zealand considers the expected lifetime over which it is exposed to credit risk.
For non-retail portfolios, ANZ New Zealand uses the maximum contractual period as the expected lifetime for non-revolving credit facilities. For
non-retail revolving credit facilities, such as corporate lines of credit, the expected life reflects ANZ New Zealand’s contractual right to withdraw afacility as part of a contractually agreed annual review, after taking into account the applicable notice period.
For retail portfolios, the expected lifetime is determined using a behavioural term, taking into account expected prepayment behaviour andevents that give rise to substantial modifications.
DEFINITION OF DEFAULT, CREDIT IMPAIRED AND WRITE-OFFS
The definition of default used in measuring ECL is aligned to the definition used for internal credit risk management purposes across all portfolios.
This definition is also in line with the regulatory definition of default. Default occurs when there are indicators that a debtor is unlikely to fully
satisfy contractual credit obligations to ANZ New Zealand, or the exposure is 90 days past due.
Financial assets, including those that are well secured, are considered credit impaired for financial reporting purposes when they default.
When there is no realistic probability of recovery, loans are written off against the related impairment allowance on completion of ANZ New
Zealand’s internal processes and when all reasonably expected recoveries have been collected. In subsequent periods, any recoveries of amounts
previously written-off are recorded as a release to the credit impairment charge in the income statement.
MODIFIED FINANCIAL ASSETS
If the contractual terms of a financial asset are modified or an existing financial asset is replaced with a new one for either credit or commercial
reasons, an assessment is made to determine if the changes to the terms of the existing financial asset are considered substantial. This assessment
considers both changes in cash flows arising from the modified terms as well as changes in the overall instrument risk profile; for example,
changes in the principal (credit limit), term, or type of underlying collateral. Where a modification is considered non-substantial, the existing
financial asset is not derecognised and its date of origination continues to be used to determine SICR. Where a modification is considered
substantial, the existing financial asset is derecognised and a new financial asset is recognised at its fair value on the modification date, which also
becomes the date of origination used to determine SICR for this new asset.

12. ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES (continued)
RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENTSIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN CREDIT RISK (SICR)
Stage 2 assets are those that have experienced a SICR since origination. In determining what constitutes a SICR, ANZ New Zealand considers
both qualitative and quantitative information:i.

Internal credit rating grade
For the majority of portfolios, the primary indicator of a SICR is a significant deterioration in the internal credit rating grade of a facility
since origination and is measured by application of thresholds.
For non-retail portfolios, a SICR is determined by comparing the Customer Credit Rating (CCR) applicable to a facility at reporting date to
the CCR at origination of that facility. A CCR is assigned to each borrower which reflects the PD of the borrower and incorporates bothborrower and non-borrower specific information, including forward-looking information. CCRs are subject to review at least annually or
more frequently when an event occurs which could affect the credit risk of the customer.
For retail portfolios, a SICR is determined, depending on the type of facility, by either comparing the scenario weighted lifetime PD at thereporting date to that at origination, or by reference to customer behavioural score thresholds. The scenario weighted lifetime probabilityof default may increase significantly if:
•
•

ii.

there has been a deterioration in the economic outlook, or an increase in economic uncertainty; orthere has been a deterioration in the customer’s overall credit position, or ability to manage their credit obligations.

Backstop criteria
ANZ New Zealand uses 30 days past due arrears as a backstop criterion for both non-retail and retail portfolios. For retail portfolios only,
facilities are required to demonstrate three to six months of good payment behaviour prior to being allocated back to Stage 1.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Forward-looking information is incorporated into both our assessment of whether a financial asset has experienced a SICR since originationand in our estimate of ECL. In applying forward-looking information for estimating ECL, ANZ New Zealand considers four probability-weighted
forecast economic scenarios as follows:i.

Base case scenario
The base case scenario is our view of future macroeconomic conditions. It reflects management’s assumptions used for strategicplanning and budgeting, and also informs the Banking Group’s Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) which is theprocess ANZ New Zealand applies in strategic and capital planning over a 3-year time horizon;

ii.

Upside and iii. Downside scenarios
The upside and downside scenarios are fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions (that is, they are not based on theeconomic conditions prevailing at balance date) and are based on a combination of more optimistic (in the case of the upside) andpessimistic (in the case of the downside) economic events and uncertainty over long term horizons; andiv. Severe downside scenario
To better reflect the current economic conditions and geopolitical environment, ANZ New Zealand has altered the severe downside
scenario in 2022 from a scenario fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions to one which aligns with the scenario used forstress testing.
The four scenarios are described in terms of macroeconomic variables used in the PD, LGD and EAD models (collectively the ECL models)depending on the lending portfolio and country of the borrower. Examples of the macroeconomic variables include unemployment rates, GDP
growth rates, house price indices, commercial property price indices and consumer price indices.
Probability weighting of each scenario is determined by management considering the risks and uncertainties surrounding the base caseeconomic scenario, as well as specific portfolio considerations where required.
Where applicable, temporary adjustments may be made to account for situations where known or expected risks have not been adequately
addressed in the modelling process.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Collectively assessed allowance for expected credit losses
In estimating collectively assessed ECL, ANZ New Zealand makes judgements and assumptions in relation to:• the selection of an estimation technique or modelling methodology; and• the selection of inputs for those models, and the interdependencies between those inputs.
The following table summarises the key judgements and assumptions in relation to the model inputs and the interdependencies between those
inputs, and highlights significant changes during the current period.
The judgements and associated assumptions have been made within the context of the uncertainty of how various factors might impact the
global economy, and reflect historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant, including expectations of future events thatare believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. ANZ New Zealand’s ECL estimates are inherently uncertain and, as a result, actual results
may differ from these estimates.
Judgement /assumption

Description

Considerations for the year ended
30 September 2022

Determining
when a SICR
has occurred

In the measurement of ECL, judgement is involved insetting the rules and trigger points to determine
whether there has been a SICR since initialrecognition of a loan, which would result in thefinancial asset moving from Stage 1 to Stage 2. This isa key area of judgement since transition from Stage 1
to Stage 2 increases the ECL from an allowance basedon the probability of default in the next 12 months, toan allowance for lifetime expected credit losses.
Subsequent decreases in credit risk resulting intransition from Stage 2 to Stage 1 may similarly resultin significant changes in the ECL allowance.
The setting of precise trigger points requires
judgement which may have a material impact upon
the size of the ECL allowance. ANZ New Zealandmonitors the effectiveness of SICR criteria on an
ongoing basis.

ANZ New Zealand has adjusted the ECL this period toaccount for expected deterioration in creditworthiness of certain customer segments which areconsidered particularly vulnerable to economic
pressures such as higher interest rates, increasing
inflation and low wage growth.

Measuringboth 12-monthand lifetime
credit losses

The probability of default (PD), loss given default(LGD) and exposure at default (EAD) credit risk
parameters used in determining ECL are point-in-timemeasures reflecting the relevant forward-looking
information determined by management. Judgement
is involved in determining which forward-looking
information variables are relevant for particularlending portfolios and for determining eachportfolio’s point-in-time sensitivity.

The modelled outcome as at 30 September 2021
included a model adjustment to recognise increasedmodel uncertainties as a result of COVID-19. With
these uncertainties largely being appropriatelyreflected in the underlying models, the COVID-19
adjustments have been removed.

In addition, judgement is required where behaviouralcharacteristics are applied in estimating the lifetime ofa facility to be used in measuring ECL.

There were no material changes to the policies during
the year ended 30 September 2022.

ANZ New Zealand derives a forward-looking “basecase” economic scenario which reflects our view ofthe most likely future macroeconomic conditions.

There have been no changes to the types of forwardlooking variables (key economic drivers) used asmodel inputs in the current year.
As at 30 September 2022, the base case assumptions
have been updated to reflect the relaxation of COVID19 related restrictions, continuing supply chain andlabour market pressures, and rapidly increasing global
inflation and interest rate rises globally, as well as
lower growth in key economies.
The expected outcomes of key economic drivers forthe base case scenario as at 30 September 2022 aredescribed below under the heading “Base caseeconomic forecast assumptions”.

Probability
weighting ofeach economic
scenario (basecase, upside,
downside andseveredownsidescenarios)1

Probability weighting of each economic scenario is
determined by management considering the risks
and uncertainties surrounding the base caseeconomic scenario at each measurement date.
The assigned probability weightings are subject to ahigh degree of inherent uncertainty and therefore theactual outcomes may be significantly different tothose projected.

To better reflect the current economic conditions andgeopolitical environment, ANZ New Zealand hasaltered the severe downside scenario from a scenario
fixed by reference to average economic cycle
conditions to one which aligns with the scenario used
for stress testing.
The key considerations for probability weightings in
the current period include the emergence fromCOVID-19 restrictions, how customers will respond tointerest rate rises and higher inflation, and potential
impacts of lower growth prospects globally.
Weightings for current and prior periods are as
detailed in the section on ‘Probability weightings’
below.

Management
temporaryadjustments

Management temporary adjustments to the ECL
allowance are used in circumstances where it isjudged that our existing inputs, assumptions andmodel techniques do not capture all the risk factors
relevant to our lending portfolios. Emerging local or
global macroeconomic, microeconomic or politicalevents, and natural disasters that are not incorporated
into our current parameters, risk ratings, or forwardlooking information are examples of suchcircumstances. The use of management temporary
adjustments may impact the amount of ECL
recognised.

As at 30 September 2022, Management no longer
consider that a separate management temporary
adjustment is necessary for the uncertainty associatedwith COVID-19. Management have however included
adjustments to accommodate uncertainty associatedwith rising inflation, rapidly increasing interest rates,and ongoing supply chain and labour market
pressures.
In addition, management overlays have been madefor risks particular to personal and business banking.
Management temporary adjustments total NZ$169
million (2021: NZ$177 million).

The upside and downside scenarios are fixed by reference to average economic cycle conditions (that is, they are not based on the economic conditions prevailing at balance date) and are basedon a combination of more optimistic (in the case of the upside) and pessimistic (in the case of the downside) economic conditions.

Base case economic forecast assumptions
Continuing uncertainties described above increase the risk of the economic forecast resulting in an understatement or overstatement of the ECL
balance.
The economic drivers of the base case economic forecasts, reflective of our view of future macroeconomic conditions, used at 30 September 2022
are set out below. For the years following the near term forecasts below, the ECL models project future year economic conditions which include
an assumption of eventual reversion to mid-cycle economic conditions.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Probability weightings
Probability weightings for each scenario are determined by management considering the risks and uncertainties surrounding the base caseeconomic scenario including the uncertainties described above.
The base case scenario represents an overall deterioration in the forecasts since September 2021. Given the uncertainties associated with how theeconomy may respond to rapidly moving factors including inflation and lower economic growth globally, the base case weighting has been
reduced to 45.0% (2021: 50.0%), the upside scenario reduced to 0.0% (2021: 4.5%), the downside scenario reduced to 40.0% (2021:40.5%), and thesevere downside scenario increased to 15.0% (2021: 5.0%).
The assigned probability weightings are subject to a high degree of inherent uncertainty and therefore the actual outcomes may be significantly
different to those projected. ANZ New Zealand considers these weightings to provide estimates of the possible loss outcomes and taking into
account short and long term inter-relationships within ANZ New Zealand’s credit portfolios. The weightings applied are set out below:

ECL - Sensitivity analysis
Given current economic uncertainties and the judgement applied to factors used in determining the expected default of borrowers in future
periods, expected credit losses reported by ANZ New Zealand should be considered as a best estimate within a range of possible estimates.

Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost, or fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) when they are held for trading. Additionally, financial
liabilities can be designated at FVTPL where:• the designation eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch which would otherwise arise;• a group of financial liabilities are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk
management strategy; or• the financial liability contains one or more embedded derivatives unless:a) the embedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows that otherwise would be required by the contract; orb) the embedded derivative is closely related to the host financial liability.
Where financial liabilities are designated as measured at fair value, gains or losses relating to changes in the entity’s own credit risk are included inother comprehensive income, except where doing so would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
For deposits and other borrowings that:• are not designated at FVTPL on initial recognition, we measure them at amortised cost and recognise their interest expense using the effective
interest rate method; and• are managed on a fair value basis, reduce or eliminate an accounting mismatch or contain an embedded derivative, we designate them asmeasured at fair value through profit or loss.
Refer to Note 16 fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities for further details.
For deposits and other borrowings designated at fair value we recognise the amount of fair value gain or loss attributable to changes in ANZ New
Zealand’s own credit risk in other comprehensive income in retained earnings. Any remaining amount of fair value gain or loss we recognise directlyin profit or loss. Once we have recognised an amount in other comprehensive income, we do not later reclassify it to profit or loss.
Securities sold under repurchase agreements represent a liability to repurchase the financial assets that remain on our balance sheet since the risks
and rewards of ownership remain with ANZ New Zealand. Over the life of the repurchase agreement, we recognise the difference between the saleprice and the repurchase price and charge it to interest expense in the income statement.

14. DEBT ISSUANCESANZ New Zealand uses a variety of funding programmes to issue unsubordinated debt (including senior debt and covered bonds) and subordinateddebt. The difference between unsubordinated debt and subordinated debt is that holders of unsubordinated debt take priority over holders ofsubordinated debt owed by the relevant issuer and subordinated debt will be repaid by the relevant issuer only after the repayment of claims ofdepositors, other creditors and the senior debt holders.

Covered bonds are guaranteed by ANZNZ Covered Bond Trust Limited (the Covered Bond Guarantor), solely in its capacity as trustee of ANZNZ
Covered Bond Trust (the Covered Bond Trust). The Covered Bond Trust is a member of ANZ New Zealand, whereas the Covered Bond Guarantor is nota member of ANZ New Zealand.

SUBORDINATED DEBT
Other subordinated debt instruments rank ahead of ANZ Capital Notes in any liquidation event impacting the issuer of the instruments. ANZ Capital
Notes 3 (ANZ CN3) rank equally with other additional tier 1 capital instruments issued by the Ultimate Parent Bank.
ANZ CAPITAL NOTESANZ Capital Notes are fully paid mandatorily convertible non-cumulative perpetual subordinated notes. Holders of ANZ Capital Notes do not have any
right to vote in general meetings of the Ultimate Parent Bank or the Bank.
ANZ Capital Notes are classified as debt given there are circumstances beyond ANZ New Zealand’s control where the principal is converted into avariable number of ordinary shares of the Ultimate Parent Bank.
Distributions on ANZ CN3 are non-cumulative and subject to the issuer’s absolute discretion and certain payment conditions (including regulatory
requirements). Distributions on ANZ CN3 are franked in line with the franking applied to the Ultimate Parent Bank’s ordinary shares.
ANZ CN3 provides the issuer with an early redemption or conversion option on a specified date and in certain other circumstances (such as a tax orregulatory event). This option is subject to APRA’s prior written approval.

ANZ CN3 will immediately convert into a variable number of ordinary shares of the Ultimate Parent Bank (based on the average market price of the
Ultimate Parent Bank’s ordinary shares immediately prior to conversion less a 1% discount, subject to a maximum conversion number of Ultimate
Parent Bank ordinary shares) if:• the Overseas Banking Group’s Level 1 or Level 2 common equity tier 1 capital ratio is equal to or less than 5.125% - known as a Common Equity
Capital Trigger Event; or• APRA notifies the Ultimate Parent Bank that, without the conversion or write-off of certain securities or a public injection of capital (or equivalent
support), it considers that the Ultimate Parent Bank would become non-viable – known as a Non-Viability Trigger Event.
ANZ CN3 mandatorily convert into a variable number of ordinary shares of the Ultimate Parent Bank (based on the average market price of the shares
immediately prior to conversion less a 1% discount):• on a specified mandatory conversion date; or• on an earlier date under certain circumstances as set out in the terms.
However, the mandatory conversion is deferred for a specified period if certain conversion tests are not met.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
Debt issuances are initially recognised at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, except where designated at fair value throughprofit or loss. Interest expense on debt issuances is recognised using the effective interest rate method. Where ANZ New Zealand enters into a fairvalue hedge accounting relationship, the fair value attributable to the hedge risk is reflected in adjustments to the carrying value of the debt.
Subordinated debt with capital-based conversion features (i.e. Common Equity Capital Trigger Events or Non-Viability Trigger Events) are considered
to contain embedded derivatives that we account for separately at fair value through profit or loss. The embedded derivatives arise because theamount of shares issued on conversion following any of those trigger events is subject to the maximum conversion number, however they have nosignificant value as of the reporting date given the remote nature of those trigger events.

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENTRISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK AND MODELINTRODUCTION
The use of financial instruments is fundamental to ANZ New Zealand’s businesses of providing banking and other financial services to our customers.
The associated financial risks (primarily credit, market, and liquidity risks) are a significant portion of ANZ New Zealand’s key material risks.
This note details ANZ New Zealand’s financial risk management policies, processes and quantitative disclosures in relation to the key financial risks:

liabilities

The risk of financial loss resulting from:• a counterparty failing to fulfil its obligations; or• a decrease in credit quality of a counterparty resulting in a financial loss.
Credit risk incorporates the risks associated with us lending to customers
who could be impacted by climate change or by changes to laws,
regulations, or other policies adopted by governments or regulatory
authorities, including carbon pricing and climate change adaptation or
mitigation policies.
Market risk
The risk to ANZ New Zealand’s earnings arising from:• changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, credit spreads, volatility
and correlations; or• fluctuations in bond, commodity or equity prices.
Liquidity and funding risk
The risk that ANZ New Zealand is unable to meet its payment obligations as
they fall due, including:• repaying depositors or maturing wholesale debt; or• ANZ New Zealand having insufficient capacity to fund increases in assets.

OVERVIEWAN OVERVIEW OF OUR RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORKThis overview is provided to aid the users of the financial statements in understanding the context of the financial disclosures required under NZ IFRS
7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures.
The Board is responsible for establishing and overseeing ANZ New Zealand’s Risk Management Framework (RMF). The Board has delegated authority
to the Bank’s Board Risk Committee (BRC) to develop and monitor compliance with ANZ New Zealand’s risk management policies. The BRC reports
regularly to the Board on its activities.
The Board approves the strategic objectives of ANZ New Zealand including:• the Risk Appetite Statement (RAS), which sets out the Board’s expectations regarding the degree of risk that ANZ New Zealand is prepared toaccept in pursuit of its strategic objectives and business plan; and• the Risk Management Strategy (RMS), which describes ANZ New Zealand’s strategy for managing risks and the key elements of the RMF thatgive effect to this strategy. This includes a description of each material risk, and an overview of how the RMF addresses each risk, with reference
to the relevant policies, standards and procedures. It also includes information on how ANZ New Zealand identifies, measures, evaluates,
monitors, reports and controls or mitigates material risks.
ANZ New Zealand, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and robust control environment inwhich all employees understand their roles and obligations. At ANZ New Zealand, risk is everyone’s responsibility.
ANZ New Zealand has an independent risk management function, headed by the Chief Risk Officer who:
• is responsible for overseeing the risk profile and the risk management framework;• can effectively challenge activities and decisions that materially affect ANZ New Zealand’s risk profile; and• has an independent reporting line to the BRC to enable the appropriate escalation of issues of concern.
Internal Audit Function
Internal Audit is a function independent of management whose role is to provide the Board and management with an effective and independent
appraisal of the internal controls established by management. Operating under a Board approved Charter, the reporting line for the outcomes of work
conducted by Internal Audit is direct to the Chair of the Audit Committee, with a direct communication line to the Chief Executive Officer and theexternal auditor. The Internal Audit Plan is developed using a risk based approach and is reviewed quarterly. The Audit Committee approves the plan.
All audit activities are conducted in accordance with international internal auditing standards, and the results of the activities are reported to the Audit
Committee and management. These results influence the performance assessment of business heads. Furthermore, Internal Audit monitors theremediation of audit issues and reports the current status of any outstanding audits.

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
CREDIT RISKCREDIT RISK OVERVIEW, MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL RESPONSIBILITIES
Granting credit facilities to customers is one of ANZ New Zealand’s major sources of income. As this activity is also a key material risk, ANZ New
Zealand dedicates considerable resources to its management. ANZ New Zealand assumes credit risk in a wide range of lending and other activities indiverse markets and in many jurisdictions. Credit risks arise from traditional lending to customers as well as from interbank, treasury, trade finance andcapital markets activities.
Our credit risk management framework ensures we apply a consistent approach across ANZ New Zealand when we measure, monitor and manage
the credit risk appetite set by the Board. The Board is assisted and advised by the BRC in discharging its duty to oversee credit risk. The BRC:
• sets the credit risk appetite and credit strategies; and• approves policies and control frameworks for the management of ANZ New Zealand’s credit risk.
The BRC delegates responsibility for day-to-day management of credit risk and compliance with credit risk policies to the Bank’s Credit Risk
Management Committee (CRMC).
We quantify credit risk through an internal credit rating system (Master Scale) to ensure consistency across exposure types and to provide a consistentframework for reporting and analysis. The system uses models and other tools to measure the following for customer exposures:
Probability of Default (PD)Expressed by a Customer Credit Rating (CCR), reflecting ANZ New Zealand’s assessment of a customer’sability to service and repay debt.

Exposure at Default (EAD)

The expected balance sheet exposure at default taking into account repayments of principal andinterest, expected additional drawdowns and accrued interest at the time of default.

Loss Given Default (LGD)

Expressed by a Security Indicator (SI) ranging from A to G. The SI is calculated by reference to thepercentage of loan covered by security which ANZ New Zealand can realise if a customer defaults. The
A-G scale is supplemented by a range of other SIs which cover such factors as cash cover and sovereign
backing. For retail and some small business lending, we group exposures into large homogeneous
pools – and the LGD is assigned at the pool level.

Our specialist credit risk teams develop and validate ANZ New Zealand’s PD and LGD rating models. The outputs from these models drive our day-today credit risk management decisions including origination, pricing, approval levels, regulatory capital adequacy, internal capital allocation, and credit
provisioning.
All customers with whom ANZ New Zealand has a credit relationship are assigned a CCR at origination via either of the following assessment
approaches:
Large and more complex lending

Retail and some small business lending

Rating models provide a consistent and structured assessment, withjudgement required around the use of out-of-model factors. We
handle credit approval on a dual approval basis, jointly with thebusiness writer and an independent credit officer.

Automated assessment of credit applications using a combination ofscoring (application and behavioural), policy rules and external credit
reporting information. If the application does not meet the automatedassessment criteria, then it is subject to manual assessment.

We use ANZ New Zealand’s internal CCR to manage the credit quality of financial assets. To enable wider comparisons, ANZ New Zealand’s CCRs are
mapped to external rating agency scales as follows:
Credit quality
description

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
MAXIMUM EXPOSURE TO CREDIT RISKFor financial assets recognised on the balance sheet, the maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount. In certain circumstances there may
be differences between the carrying amounts reported on the balance sheet and the amounts reported in the tables below. Principally, thesedifferences arise in respect of financial assets that are subject to risks other than credit risk, such as equity instruments which are primarily subject tomarket risk, or bank notes and coins.
For undrawn facilities, this maximum exposure to credit risk is the full amount of the committed facilities. For contingent exposures, the maximum
exposure to credit risk is the maximum amount ANZ New Zealand would have to pay if the instrument is called upon.
The table below shows our maximum exposure to credit risk of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet positions before taking account of any
collateral held or other credit enhancements.

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Credit risk becomes concentrated when a number of customers are engaged in similar activities, have similar economic characteristics, or have similar
activities within the same geographic region – therefore, they may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. ANZ New
Zealand monitors its credit portfolio to manage risk concentration and rebalance the portfolio. ANZ New Zealand also applies single customer
counterparty limits to protect against unacceptably large exposures to one single customer.
Analysis of financial assets by industry sector is based on Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) codes. The significant
categories shown are the level one New Zealand Standard Industry Output Categories (NZSIOC), except that Agriculture is shown separately as
required by the Order.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
COLLATERAL MANAGEMENT
We use collateral for on and off-balance sheet exposures to mitigate credit risk if a counterparty cannot meet its repayment obligations. Where there issufficient collateral, an expected credit loss is not recognised. This is largely the case for certain lending products, such as margin loans and reverse
repurchase agreements that are secured by the securities purchased using the lending. For some products, the collateral provided by customers isfundamental to the product’s structuring, so it is not strictly the secondary source of repayment - for example, lending secured by trade receivables istypically repaid by the collection of those receivables. During the period there was no change in our collateral policies.
The nature of collateral or security held for the relevant classes of financial assets is as follows:
Net loans and advances
Loans – housing and personal

Housing loans are secured by mortgage(s) over property and additional security may take the form ofguarantees and deposits.
Personal lending (including credit cards and overdrafts) is predominantly unsecured. If we takesecurity, then it is restricted to eligible vehicles, motor homes and other assets.

Loans – businessBusiness loans may be secured, partially secured or unsecured. Typically, we take security by way of amortgage over property and/or a charge over the business or other assets.
If appropriate, we may take other security to mitigate the credit risk, such as guarantees, standby lettersof credit or derivative protection.

Other financial assets
Trading securities, investment
securities, derivatives and otherfinancial assets

For trading securities, we do not seek collateral directly from the issuer or counterparty. However, thecollateral may be implicit in the terms of the instrument (for example, with an asset-backed security).
The terms of debt securities may include collateralisation.
For derivatives, we typically terminate all contracts with the counterparty and settle on a net basis atmarket levels current at the time of a counterparty default under International Swaps and Derivatives
Association (ISDA) Master Agreements.
Our preferred practice is to use a Credit Support Annex (CSA) to the ISDA so that open derivative
positions with the counterparty are aggregated and cash collateral (or other forms of eligible collateral)is exchanged daily. The collateral is provided by the counterparty when their position is out of themoney (or provided to the counterparty by ANZ New Zealand when our position is out of the money).

Off-balance sheet positions
Undrawn and contingent facilities

Collateral for off-balance sheet positions is mainly held against undrawn facilities, and they are typically
performance bonds or guarantees. Undrawn facilities that are secured include housing loans securedby mortgages over residential property and business lending secured by commercial real estate and/or
charges over business assets.

The table below shows the estimated value of collateral we hold and the net unsecured portion of credit exposures:

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
MARKET RISKMARKET RISK OVERVIEW, MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL RESPONSIBILITIESMarket risk stems from ANZ New Zealand’s trading and balance sheet management activities and the impact of changes and correlations between
interest rates, foreign exchange rates, credit spreads and volatility in bond, commodity or equity prices.
The BRC delegates responsibility for day-to-day management of both market risk and compliance with market risk policies to the Bank’s Asset &Liability Committee (ALCO).
Within overall strategies and policies established by the BRC, business units and risk management have joint responsibility for the control of market
risk at the ANZ New Zealand level. The Market Risk team (a specialist risk management unit independent of the business) allocates market risk limits at
various levels and monitors and reports on them daily. This detailed framework allocates individual limits to manage and control exposures using risk
factors and profit and loss limits.
Management, measurement and reporting of market risk is undertaken in two broad categories:
Traded market risk

Non-traded market risk

Risk of loss from changes in the value of financial instruments due
to movements in price factors for both physical and derivative
trading positions. Principal risk categories monitored are:• Currency risk – potential loss arising from changes in foreignexchange rates or their implied volatilities.
• Interest rate risk – potential loss from changes in market
interest rates or their implied volatilities.
• Credit spread risk – potential loss arising from a movement
in margin or spread relative to a benchmark.
• Commodity risk – potential loss arising from changes incommodity prices or their implied volatilities.
• Equity risk – potential loss arising from changes in equity
prices.

Risk of loss associated with the management of non-traded interest rate risk,
liquidity risk and foreign exchange exposures. This includes interest rate riskin the banking book. This risk of loss arises from adverse changes in theoverall and relative level of interest rates for different tenors, differences in
the actual versus expected net interest margin, and the potential valuation
risk associated with embedded options in financial instruments and bankproducts.

MEASUREMENT OF MARKET RISKWe primarily manage and control market risk using Value at Risk (VaR), sensitivity analysis and stress testing.
VaR measures ANZ New Zealand’s possible daily loss based on historical market movements.
ANZ New Zealand’s VaR approach for both traded and non-traded risk is historical simulation. We use historical changes in market rates, prices andvolatilities over:• the previous 500 business days, to calculate standard VaR; and• a 1-year stressed period, to calculate stressed VaR.
We calculate traded and non-traded VaR using a one-day holding period. For stressed VaR we use a ten-day period. Back testing is used to ensure ourVaR models remain accurate.
ANZ New Zealand measures VaR at a 99% confidence interval which means there is a 99% chance that a loss will not exceed the VaR for the relevant
holding period.

The diversification benefit reflects risks that offset across categories. The high and low VaR figures reported for each factor did not necessarily occur on the same day as the high and low VaR reported for
ANZ New Zealand as a whole. Consequently, a diversification benefit for high and low would not be meaningful and is therefore omitted from the table.

Non-traded market risk
Balance sheet risk management
The principal objectives of balance sheet risk management are to maintain acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk to mitigate the negative
impact of movements in interest rates on the earnings and market value of ANZ New Zealand’s banking book, while ensuring ANZ New Zealandmaintains sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations as they fall due.
Interest rate risk management
Non-traded interest rate risk relates to the potential adverse impact of changes in market interest rates on ANZ New Zealand’s future net interest
income. This risk arises from two principal sources, namely mismatches between the repricing dates of interest bearing assets and liabilities; and theinvestment of capital and other non-interest bearing liabilities and assets. Interest rate risk is reported using VaR and scenario analysis (based on theimpact of a 1% rate shock). The table below shows VaR figures for non-traded interest rate risk for ANZ New Zealand.

We undertake scenario analysis to stress test the impact of extreme events on ANZ New Zealand’s market risk exposures. We model a 1% overnight
parallel positive shift in the yield curve to determine the potential impact on our net interest income over the next 12 months. This is a standard risk
measure which assumes the parallel shift is reflected in all wholesale and customer rates.
The table below shows the outcome of this risk measure for the current and previous financial years, expressed as a percentage of reported net
interest income.

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK – STRUCTURAL EXPOSURES
Where it is considered appropriate, ANZ New Zealand takes out economic hedges against larger foreign exchange denominated revenue streams(primarily Australian Dollar, US Dollar and US Dollar correlated). The primary objective of hedging is to ensure that, if practical, the effect of changes inforeign exchange rates on the consolidated capital ratios are minimised.

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
15. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
LIQUIDITY AND FUNDING RISKLIQUIDITY RISK OVERVIEW, MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL RESPONSIBILITIES
Liquidity risk is the risk that ANZ New Zealand is either:• unable to meet its payment obligations (including repaying depositors or maturing wholesale debt) when they fall due; or• does not have the appropriate amount, tenor and composition of funding and liquidity to fund increases in its assets.
Management of liquidity and funding is overseen by ALCO following delegation from the BRC. Within an overall framework established by the BRC,
Treasury and Market Risk have responsibility for the control of funding and liquidity risk at ANZ New Zealand level. Liquidity and funding risks aregoverned by a set of principles approved by the Risk Committees of the Bank’s and Ultimate Parent Bank’s Boards and include:• maintaining the ability to meet all payment obligations in the immediate term;• ensuring that ANZ New Zealand has the ability to meet ‘survival horizons’ under ANZ New Zealand specific and general market liquidity stressscenarios to meet cash flow obligations over the short to medium term;• maintaining strength in ANZ New Zealand’s balance sheet structure to ensure long term resilience in the liquidity and funding risk profile;• ensuring the liquidity management framework is compatible with local regulatory requirements;• preparing daily liquidity reports and scenario analysis to quantify ANZ New Zealand’s positions;• targeting a diversified funding base to avoid undue concentrations by investor type, maturity, market source and currency;• holding a portfolio of high quality liquid assets to protect against adverse funding conditions and to support day-to-day operations; and• establishing a detailed contingency plan to cover different liquidity crisis events.
KEY AREAS OF MEASUREMENT FOR LIQUIDITY AND FUNDING RISKSupervision and regulation
RBNZ requires the Bank to have a comprehensive Board approved liquidity strategy defining: policy, systems and procedures for measuring, assessing,reporting and managing liquidity. This also includes a formal contingency plan for dealing with a liquidity crisis. The Banking Group is required to meet
one week and one month liquidity mismatch ratios and a one year core funding ratio each day.
Scenario modelling
A key component of ANZ New Zealand’s liquidity management framework is scenario modelling of a range of regulatory and internal liquidity metrics.
Potential severe liquidity crisis scenarios which model the behaviour of cash flows where there is a problem (real or perceived) may include, but are
not limited to, operational issues, doubts about the solvency of ANZ New Zealand, or adverse rating changes. Under these scenarios ANZ New
Zealand may have significant difficulty rolling over or replacing funding. ANZ New Zealand’s liquidity policy requires sufficient high quality liquid
assets to be held to meet its liquidity needs for the following one month under the modelled scenarios.
As of 30 September 2022 ANZ New Zealand was operating above the required minimums with the above scenarios.
Structural balance sheet metrics
ANZ New Zealand’s liquidity management framework also encompasses structural balance sheet metrics such as the RBNZ core funding ratio. The
core funding ratio is designed to limit the amount of wholesale funding required to be rolled over within a one year timeframe and so interact withthe liquidity scenarios to maintain ANZ New Zealand‘s liquidity position.
Wholesale funding
ANZ New Zealand’s wholesale funding strategy is designed to deliver a sustainable portfolio of wholesale funds that balances cost efficiency withtargeting diversification by markets, investors, currencies, maturities and funding structures. Short-term and long-term wholesale funding is managed
and executed by Treasury.
ANZ New Zealand also uses maturity concentration limits under the wholesale funding and liquidity management framework. Maturity concentration
limits ensure that ANZ New Zealand is not required to issue large volumes of new wholesale funding within a short time period to replace maturingwholesale funding. Funding instruments used to meet the wholesale borrowing requirement must be on a pre-established list of approved products.
Funding capacity and debt issuance planning
ANZ New Zealand adopts a conservative approach to determine its funding capacity. Annually, a funding plan is approved by the Bank’s Board. The
plan is supplemented by regular updates and is linked to ANZ New Zealand’s three-year strategic planning cycle.

Assets held in ANZ New Zealand’s liquidity portfolio include short term cash held with RBNZ, New Zealand Government securities, securities issued bysupranational agencies, securities issued by highly rated banks and securities issued by State Owned Enterprises, Local Authorities and highly rated
New Zealand domestic corporates.
The Bank also held unencumbered internal residential mortgage backed securities (RMBS) which would be accepted as collateral by RBNZ in
repurchase transactions. These holdings would entitle the Bank to enter into repurchase transactions with RBNZ with a value of NZ$10,800 million at
30 September 2022 (2021: NZ$9,647 million).
RBNZ Term Lending Facility (TLF) and Funding for Lending Programme (FLP)• Between May 2020 and July 2021, RBNZ made funds available under the TLF to promote lending to businesses. The TLF is a five-year secured
funding facility for New Zealand banks at a fixed rate of 0.25%.
•

In November 2020, RBNZ announced the FLP which aimed to lower the cost of borrowing for New Zealand businesses and households. The FLP
is a three-year secured funding facility for New Zealand banks at a floating rate of the New Zealand Official Cash Rate (OCR). New Zealand banks
were able to obtain initial funding of up to 4% of their lending to New Zealand resident households, non-financial businesses and non-profit
institutions serving households as at 31 October 2020 (eligible loans). The initial allocation closed on 6 June 2022. An additional allocation of up
to 2% of eligible loans is available, subject to certain conditions until 6 December 2022.

As at 30 September 2022, the Bank had drawn NZ$300 million (2021: NZ$300 million) under the TLF and NZ$2,500 million (2021: NZ$1,000 million)
under the FLP. These amounts are included in securities sold under repurchase agreements in Note 13 deposits and other borrowings.
Liquidity crisis contingency planning
ANZ New Zealand maintains a liquidity crisis contingency plan to define an approach for analysing and responding to a liquidity-threatening event.
The framework includes:• the establishment of crisis severity/stress levels;• clearly assigned crisis roles and responsibilities;• early warning signals indicative of an approaching crisis, and mechanisms to monitor and report these signals;• action plans, and courses of action for altering asset and liability behaviour;• procedures for crisis management reporting, and covering cash-flow shortfalls; and• assigned responsibilities for internal and external communications.
FUNDING POSITIONANZ New Zealand actively uses balance sheet disciplines to prudently manage the funding mix. ANZ New Zealand employs funding metrics to ensurethat an appropriate proportion of its assets are funded from stable sources, including customer liabilities, longer-dated wholesale debt (withremaining term exceeding one year) and equity.

FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE
The fair valuation of financial assets and financial liabilities is generally determined at the individual instrument level.
If ANZ New Zealand holds offsetting risk positions, then we use the portfolio exemption in NZ IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement (NZ IFRS 13) to measure
the fair value of such groups of financial assets and financial liabilities. We measure the portfolio based on the price that would be received to sell a net
long position (an asset) for a particular risk exposure, or to transfer a net short position (a liability) for a particular risk exposure.
Fair value designation
We designate commercial paper (included in deposits and other borrowings) as fair value through profit or loss where they are managed on a fairvalue basis to align the measurement with how the instruments are managed.
FAIR VALUE APPROACH AND VALUATION TECHNIQUESWe use valuation techniques to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities for recognition, measurement and disclosure purposes where no quoted
price in an active market exists for that asset or liability. This includes the following:
Asset or liability

Fair value approach

Financial instruments classified as:- Trading securities- Derivative financial assets and financial liabilities- Investment securities

Valuation techniques are used that incorporate observable market inputs for financial
instruments with similar credit risk, maturity and yield characteristics.

Financial instruments classified as:- Net loans and advances- Deposits and other borrowings- Debt issuances

Discounted cash flow techniques are used whereby contractual future cash flows of the
instrument are discounted using wholesale market interest rates, or market borrowing rates
for debt with similar maturities or with a yield curve appropriate for the remaining term tomaturity.

16. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES (continued)
FAIR VALUE HIERARCHYANZ New Zealand categorises assets and liabilities carried at fair value into a fair value hierarchy as required by NZ IFRS 13 based on the observabilityof inputs used to measure the fair value:• Level 1 – valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;• Level 2 – valuations using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for a similar asset or liability, either directly
or indirectly; and• Level 3 – valuations where significant unobservable inputs are used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability.
The following table presents assets and liabilities carried at fair value in accordance with the fair value hierarchy:

16. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES (continued)
The following table sets out ANZ New Zealand’s basis of estimating the fair values of financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost where thecarrying value is not typically a reasonable approximation of fair value.
The carrying values of certain on-balance sheet financial instruments approximate fair values. These financial instruments are short term in nature or
are floating rate instruments that are re-priced to market interest rates on or near the end of the reporting period.
Financial asset and liability

Fair value approach

Net loans and advances to banks

Discounted cash flows using prevailing market rates for loans with similar credit quality.

Net loans and advances to customers

Present value of future cash flows, discounted using a curve that incorporates changes inwholesale market rates, ANZ New Zealand’s cost of wholesale funding and the customer margin,
as appropriate.

Deposit liability without a specified maturity or
at call

The amount payable on demand at the reporting date. We do not adjust the fair value for any
value we expect ANZ New Zealand to derive from retaining the deposit for a future period.

Interest bearing fixed maturity deposits andother borrowings and acceptances withquoted market rates

Market borrowing rates of interest for debt with a similar maturity are used to discount contractual
cash flows to derive the fair value.

Debt issuances

Calculated based on quoted market prices or observable inputs as applicable. If quoted market
prices are not available, we use a discounted cash flow model using a yield curve appropriate forthe remaining term to maturity of the debt instrument. The fair value reflects adjustments to credit
spreads applicable to ANZ New Zealand for that instrument.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
A significant portion of financial instruments are carried on ANZ New Zealand’s balance sheet at fair value. ANZ New Zealand therefore regularly
evaluates the key valuation assumptions used in the determination of the fair valuation of financial instruments incorporated within thefinancial statements, as this can involve a high degree of judgement and estimation in determining the carrying values at the balance sheet
date.
In determining the fair valuation of financial instruments, ANZ New Zealand has considered the impact of related economic and market
conditions on fair value measurement assumptions and the appropriateness of valuation inputs in these estimates, notably valuation adjustments, aswell as the impact of these matters on the classification of financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy.
Most of the valuation models ANZ New Zealand uses employ only observable market data as inputs. For certain financial instruments, we may
use data that is not readily observable in current markets. If we use unobservable market data, then we need to exercise more judgement todetermine fair value depending on the significance of the unobservable input to the overall valuation. Generally, we derive unobservable
inputs from other relevant market data and compare them to observed transaction prices where available. When establishing the fair value ofa financial instrument using a valuation technique, ANZ New Zealand also considers any required valuation adjustments in determining thefair value. We may apply adjustments (such as credit valuation adjustments and funding valuation adjustments – refer Note 9 derivative
financial instruments) to reflect ANZ New Zealand’s assessment of factors that market participants would consider in determining fair value ofa particular financial instrument.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS ALLOCATED TO CASH-GENERATING UNITS (CGUs)
Goodwill arose on the acquisition of the NBNZ Holdings Limited group on 1 December 2003, and the carrying amount reflects amortisation
recognised before the application of NZ IFRS from 1 October 2004 and subsequent business disposals. Funds management rights, assessed as having
indefinite useful lives, arose on the acquisition of the ING Holdings (NZ) Limited (now ANZ New Zealand Investments Holdings Limited) group on 30
November 2009.

Goodwill was assessed for indicators of impairment as at 30 September 2022, taking into account the results of the February 2022 impairment test andassociated sensitivity and scenario analysis performed and the forecast impact of recent economic events. There were no indicators of impairment
therefore, in accordance with NZ IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, no further impairment test was required. The following information is for the annual
goodwill impairment test.
Annual goodwill impairment test
The annual impairment test is performed as at the end of February each year. Goodwill is considered to be impaired if the carrying amount of therelevant CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal (FVLCOD) and its
value-in use (VIU). We use a value-in-use approach to estimate the recoverable amount of the CGU to which each goodwill component is allocated.
Based on this assessment no impairment was identified for any CGU, and therefore a FVLCOD calculation was not required.

19. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)
VALUE-IN-USE
These calculations use cash flow projections based on a number of financial budgets within each CGU covering an initial forecast period. These
projections also incorporate economic assumptions including GDP, inflation, unemployment, residential and commercial property prices, the impactof the restriction imposed by RBNZ on the payment of ordinary dividends by all New Zealand incorporated registered banks, and the implementationof RBNZ’s increased capital requirements. Cash flows beyond the forecast period are extrapolated using the terminal growth rate. These cash flow
projections are discounted using a discount rate derived using a capital asset pricing model.
Future changes in the assumptions upon which the calculation is based may materially impact this assessment, resulting in the potential impairmentof part or all of the goodwill balances.
Input / assumption

Values applied in 28 February 2022 impairment test

Forecast period and projections

To 30 September 2028 - an extended forecast period was used to cover the implementation of RBNZ’s
increased capital requirements over the transition period ending on 1 July 2028.

Revenue growth over forecast
periodComprises impacts of net interest margin and volume growth, arising from planned responses to known
regulatory and economic forecasts. Average annual forecast revenue growth rates are shown below.

Credit impairment over forecast
periodVaries by CGU, based on ECL modelling for 2022 to 2024, before returning to long run experience levels for2025 to 2028. Long run experience levels are based on ANZ New Zealand’s bad debts written off, net ofrecoveries, since 2004 of 0.15% of gross loans and advances. Credit impairment for each CGU as apercentage of forecast gross loans and advances for 2025 to 2028 is shown below.

Terminal growth rate

2.0% - based on 2025 forecast inflation from RBNZ’s February 2022 Monetary Policy Statement.

Discount rate

Post tax: 10.7% (February 2021: 9.4%).
The main variables in the calculation of the discount rate used are the risk free rate, beta and the market risk
premium. The risk free rate was the traded 10 year New Zealand government bond yield as at 28 February
2022 of 2.7%. The market risk premium was estimated using a range of methods incorporating historicaland forward-looking market data. Beta was consistent with observable measures applied in the regionalbanking sector.

The values of the average revenue growth, credit impairment as a percentage of forecast gross loans and advances, and pre-tax discount rates
assumptions by CGU are shown in the table below. The implied pre-tax discount rates are significantly higher than the post-tax discount rate above
because regulatory capital retention over the forecast period is not tax effected.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATESManagement judgement is used to assess the recoverable value of goodwill and other intangible assets, and the useful economic life ofan asset, or whether an asset has an indefinite life. We reassess the recoverability of the carrying value at each reporting date.
Goodwill
A number of key judgements are required in the determination of whether or not a goodwill balance is impaired including:• the level at which goodwill is allocated – consistent with prior periods the CGUs to which goodwill is allocated are ANZ New Zealand’s
revenue generating segments that benefit from relevant historical business combinations generating goodwill.
• determination of the carrying amount of each CGU which includes an allocation, on a reasonable and consistent basis of corporate
assets and liabilities that are not directly attributable to the CGUs to which goodwill is allocated.
• assessment of the recoverable amount of each CGU used to determine whether the carrying amount of goodwill is supported isbased on judgements including the selection of the model and key assumptions used to calculate the recoverable amount.
The assessment of the recoverable amount of each CGU has been made within the context of the inherent uncertainty described in the
key judgements and estimates section on page 9.

Customer remediation
Customer remediation includes provisions for expected refunds to customers and other counterparties, remediation project costs and related
customer, counterparty and regulatory claims, penalties and litigation costs and outcomes.
Restructuring costs
Provisions for restructuring costs arise from activities related to material changes in the scope of business undertaken by ANZ New Zealand or themanner in which that business is undertaken and include employee termination benefits. Costs relating to on-going activities are not provided for andare expensed as incurred.
Leasehold make good
Provisions associated with leased premises where, at the end of a lease, ANZ New Zealand is required to remove any fixtures and fittings installed in
the leased property. This obligation arises immediately upon installation. Estimated make good costs are added to the leasehold improvement asset(within premises and equipment) upon installation and amortised over the lease term.
Other
Other provisions comprise various other provisions including losses arising from other legal action, operational issues, and warranties and indemnities
provided in connection with various disposals of businesses and assets.

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENTANZ New Zealand recognises provisions when there is a present obligation arising from a past event, an outflow of economic resources isprobable, and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably.
The amount recognised is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into
account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the timing and amount of the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the estimated cash
flows required to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATESANZ New Zealand holds provisions for various obligations including customer remediation, restructuring costs, leasehold make good andlitigation related claims. These provisions involve judgements regarding the timing and outcome of future events, including estimates of
expenditure required to satisfy such obligations. Where relevant, expert legal advice has been obtained and, in light of such advice,provisions and/or disclosures as deemed appropriate have been made.
In relation to customer remediation, determining the amount of the provisions, which represent management’s best estimate of the costof settling the identified matters, requires the exercise of significant judgement. It will often be necessary to form a view on a number ofdifferent assumptions, including the number of impacted customers, the average refund per customer, the associated remediation project
costs, and the implications of regulatory exposures and customer claims having regard to their specific facts and circumstances. There is aheightened level of estimation uncertainty where the customer remediation provision relates to a legal proceeding or matter. The
appropriateness of the underlying assumptions is reviewed on a regular basis against actual experience and other relevant evidence
including expert legal advice and adjustments are made to the provisions where appropriate.

PPS dividends are payable at the discretion of the Directors of the Bank and are non-cumulative. The Bank must not resolve to pay any dividend or
make any other distribution on its ordinary shares until the next PPS dividend payment date if a PPS dividend is not paid.
Should the Bank elect to pay a PPS dividend, the PPS dividend is 6.95% per annum up until 18 July 2028 and thereafter a floating rate equal to theaggregate of the New Zealand 3 month bank bill rate plus 3.25%, multiplied by one minus the New Zealand company tax rate (where the PPS
dividend is fully imputed), with PPS dividend payments due on 18 January, 18 April, 18 July and 18 October each year.
Redemption features
Holders of PPS have no right to require that the PPS be redeemed. The Bank may at its option redeem all of the PPS on an optional redemption date(each PPS dividend date from 18 July 2028); or at any time following the occurrence of a tax event or regulatory event, subject to prior written
approval of RBNZ and meeting of other conditions.

21. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)
RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT
Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares have no par value. They entitle holders to receive dividends, or proceeds available on winding
up of ANZ Holdings (New Zealand) Limited, in proportion to the number of fully paid ordinary shares held.
They are recognised at the amount paid per ordinary share net of directly attributable costs. Every holder offully paid ordinary shares present at a meeting in person, or by proxy, is entitled to:• on a show of hands, one vote; and• on a poll, one vote, for each share held.

Redeemablepreference shares

Redeemable preference shares do not carry any voting rights. They are wholly classified as equity instruments
as there is no contractual obligation for the Bank to either deliver cash or another financial instrument or toexchange financial instruments on a potentially unfavourable basis.
In the event of liquidation, holders of redeemable preference shares are entitled to available subscribed capitalper share, pari passu with all holders of existing redeemable preference shares but in priority to all holders ofordinary shares. They have no entitlement to participate in further distribution of profits or assets.

Reserves:

Cash flow hedge
reserve

Includes fair value gains and losses associated with the effective portion of designated cash flow hedging
instruments together with any tax effect.

FVOCI reserve

Includes the changes in fair value of investment securities together with any tax effect.
In respect of debt securities classified as measured at FVOCI, the FVOCI reserve records accumulated changes
in fair value arising subsequent to initial recognition, except for those relating to allowance for ECL, interest
income and foreign currency exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit or loss. As debt
securities at FVOCI are recorded at fair value, the balance of the FVOCI reserve is net of the ECL allowanceassociated with such assets. When a debt security measured at FVOCI is derecognised, the cumulative gain orloss recognised in the FVOCI reserve in respect of that security is reclassified to profit or loss and presented inother operating income.
In respect of the equity securities classified as measured at FVOCI, the FVOCI reserve records accumulatedchanges in fair value arising subsequent to initial recognition (including any related foreign exchange gains orlosses). When an equity security measured at FVOCI is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss recognised in
the FVOCI reserve in respect of that security is not recycled to profit or loss.

Non-controllinginterests:

Share in the net assets of controlled entities attributable to equity interests which ANZ New Zealand does not
own directly or indirectly. The equity interest comprises PPS issued by the Bank.
PPS do not carry any voting rights. They are wholly classified as equity instruments as there is no contractual
obligation for the Bank to either deliver cash or another financial instrument or to exchange financial
instruments on a potentially unfavourable basis.
In the event of liquidation, holders of PPS are entitled to available subscribed capital per share, pari passu withall holders of existing preference shares and ANZ Capital Notes issued by the Bank but in priority to all holdersof ordinary shares issued by the Bank. They have no entitlement to participate in further distribution of profits
or assets.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

22. CAPITAL MANAGEMENTCAPITAL MANAGEMENT STRATEGYANZ New Zealand’s core capital objectives are to:• protect the interests of depositors, creditors and shareholders;• ensure the safety and soundness of ANZ New Zealand’s capital position; and• ensure that the capital base supports ANZ New Zealand’s risk appetite, and strategic business objectives, in an efficient and effective manner.
Most of ANZ New Zealand’s capital is held in, and managed by, the Banking Group. The Bank’s Board holds ultimate responsibility for ensuring that
capital adequacy of the Banking Group is maintained. This includes: setting, monitoring and obtaining assurance for the Banking Group’s Internal
Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) policy and framework; standardised risk definitions for all material risks; materiality thresholds; capital
adequacy targets; internal risk capital principles; and risk appetite.
The Banking Group has minimum and trigger levels for capital that ensure sufficient capital is maintained to:• meet minimum prudential requirements imposed by the Bank’s regulators;• ensure consistency with the Banking Group’s overall risk profile and financial positions, taking into account its strategic focus and business plan;and• support the internal risk capital requirements of the business.
ALCO is responsible for developing, implementing and maintaining the Banking Group's ICAAP framework, including ongoing monitoring, reportingand compliance. The Banking Group’s ICAAP is subject to independent and periodic review.

REGULATORY ENVIRONMENTThe Ultimate Parent Bank is a registered bank in New Zealand, and conducts business in New Zealand through the NZ Branch. While RBNZ requires
the Ultimate Parent Bank to comply with the minimum capital adequacy requirements as administered by APRA, there are no regulatory capitalrequirements that apply specifically to the NZ Branch or ANZ New Zealand.

MANAGED CAPITALThe Banking Group is subject to its own regulatory capital requirements as administered by RBNZ. The following table provides details of the capital of
ANZ New Zealand which is managed outside the Banking Group.

Changes in controlled entities

RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENTANZ New Zealand subsidiaries are those entities it controls through:• being exposed to, or having rights to, variable returns from the entity; and• being able to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
ANZ New Zealand assesses whether it has power over those entities by examining ANZ New Zealand’s existing rights to direct the relevant activitiesof the entity.

60

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

24. STRUCTURED ENTITIESA Structured Entity (SE) is an entity that has been designed such that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in determining who controls
the entity. SEs are generally established with restrictions on their ongoing activities in order to achieve narrow and well defined objectives.
SEs are classified as subsidiaries and consolidated when control exists. If ANZ New Zealand does not control a SE, then it is not consolidated. This note
provides information on both consolidated and unconsolidated SEs.
ANZ New Zealand’s involvement with SEs is as follows:Type

Details

Securitisation

ANZ New Zealand uses the Kingfisher NZ Trust 2008-1 (the Kingfisher Trust) to securitise residential mortgages thatit has originated, in order to diversify sources of funding for liquidity management. The Kingfisher Trust is aninternal securitisation (bankruptcy remote) vehicle we created for the purpose of structuring assets that are eligible
for repurchase under agreements with RBNZ (these are known as ‘Repo eligible’).
ANZ New Zealand is exposed to variable returns from its involvement with the Kingfisher Trust and has the ability
to affect those returns through its power over the Kingfisher Trust’s activities. The Kingfisher Trust is therefore
consolidated.
As at 30 September 2022 and 30 September 2021, ANZ New Zealand had entered into repurchase agreementswith RBNZ in relation to the TLF and FLP.
Additionally, ANZ New Zealand may acquire interests in securitisation vehicles set up by third parties throughproviding lending facilities to, or holding securities issued by, such entities.

ANZNZ Covered Bond Trust(the Covered Bond Trust)

Substantially all of the assets of the Covered Bond Trust are made up of certain housing loans and related
securities originated by the Bank which are security for the guarantee by ANZNZ Covered Bond Trust Limited astrustee of the Covered Bond Trust of issuances of covered bonds by the Bank, or its wholly owned subsidiary ANZ
New Zealand (Int’l) Limited, from time to time. The assets of the Covered Bond Trust are not available to creditorsof the Bank, although the Bank (or its liquidator or statutory manager) may have a claim against the residual assetsof the Covered Bond Trust (if any) after all prior ranking creditors of the Covered Bond Trust have been satisfied.
ANZ New Zealand is exposed to variable returns from its involvement with the Covered Bond Trust and has theability to affect those returns through its power over the Covered Bond Trust’s activities. The Covered Bond Trust istherefore consolidated.

Structured financearrangements

ANZ New Zealand is involved with SEs established:• in connection with structured lending transactions to facilitate debt syndication and/or to ring-fencecollateral; and• to own assets that are leased to customers in structured leasing transactions.
ANZ New Zealand may provide risk management products (derivatives) to the SE.
In all instances, ANZ New Zealand does not control these SEs. Further, ANZ New Zealand’s involvement does notestablish more than a passive interest in decisions about the relevant activities of the SE, and accordingly we do
not consider that interest disclosable.

Funds management activities ANZ New Zealand is the scheme manager for a number of Managed Investment Schemes (MIS). These MIS include
the ANZ and OneAnswer branded KiwiSaver, retail and wholesale schemes and the Bonus Bonds Scheme. TheseMIS are financed through the issue of units to investors and ANZ New Zealand considers them to be SEs. ANZ New
Zealand’s interests in these MIS are limited to receiving fees for services or providing risk management products(derivatives). These interests do not create significant exposures to the MIS that would allow ANZ New Zealand tocontrol the funds. Therefore, these MIS are not consolidated.

61

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
24. STRUCTURED ENTITIES (continued)
CONSOLIDATED STRUCTURED ENTITIESFinancial or other support provided to Consolidated Structured Entities
The Bank provides lending facilities, derivatives and commitments to the Kingfisher Trust and the Covered Bond Trust and/or holds debt instrumentsthat they have issued. The Bank did not provide any non-contractual support to consolidated SEs during the year (2021: nil).
UNCONSOLIDATED STRUCTURED ENTITIESANZ New Zealand’s interest in Unconsolidated Structured Entities
An ‘interest’ in an unconsolidated SE is any form of contractual or non-contractual involvement with a SE that exposes ANZ New Zealand to variabilityof returns from the performance of that SE. These interests include, but are not limited to: holdings of debt or equity securities; derivatives that pass onrisks specific to the performance of the SE; lending; loan commitments; financial guarantees; and fees from funds management activities.
For the purpose of disclosing interests in unconsolidated SEs:
• no disclosure is made if ANZ New Zealand’s involvement is not more than a passive interest - for example: when ANZ New Zealand’s
involvement constitutes a typical customer-supplier relationship. On this basis, exposures to unconsolidated SEs that arise from lending, trading
and investing activities are not considered disclosable interests - unless the design of the structured entity allows ANZ New Zealand toparticipate in decisions about the relevant activities (being those that significantly affect the entity’s returns).
• ‘interests’ do not include derivatives intended to expose ANZ New Zealand to market risk (rather than performance risk specific to the SE) or
derivatives through which ANZ New Zealand creates, rather than absorbs, variability of the unconsolidated SE (such as purchase of credit
protection under a credit default swap).
ANZ New Zealand earned funds management fees from its MIS of NZ$196 million (2021: NZ$204 million) during the year. As at 30 September 2022,
ANZ New Zealand had total funds under management of NZ$34.3 billion (2021: NZ$39.0 billion) of which NZ$24.6 billion (2021: NZ$28.5 billion)
related to its MIS, with the largest individual fund being approximately NZ$3.8 billion (2021: NZ$4.3 billion).
ANZ New Zealand did not provide any non-contractual support to unconsolidated SEs during the year (2021: nil): nor does it have any current
intention to provide financial or other support to unconsolidated SEs.
SPONSORED UNCONSOLIDATED STRUCTURED ENTITIESANZ New Zealand may also sponsor unconsolidated SEs in which it has no disclosable interest.
For the purposes of this disclosure, ANZ New Zealand considers itself the ‘sponsor’ of an unconsolidated SE if it is the primary party involved in thedesign and establishment of that SE and:• ANZ New Zealand is the major user of that SE; or• ANZ New Zealand’s name appears in the name of that SE, or on its products; or• ANZ New Zealand provides implicit or explicit guarantees of that SE’s performance.
The Bank has sponsored the ANZ PIE Fund, which invests only in deposits with the Bank. ANZ New Zealand does not provide any implicit or explicit
guarantees of the capital value or performance of investments in the ANZ PIE Fund. There was no income received from, nor assets transferred to, thisentity during the year.

KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
Significant judgement is required in assessing whether ANZ New Zealand has control over Structured Entities. Judgement is required todetermine the existence of:• power over the relevant activities (being those that significantly affect the entity’s returns); and• exposure to variable returns of the entity.

62

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

25. TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETSIn the normal course of business ANZ New Zealand enters into transactions where it transfers financial assets directly to third parties. These transfers
may give rise to ANZ New Zealand fully, or partially, derecognising those financial assets - depending on ANZ New Zealand’s exposure to the risks andrewards or control over the transferred assets. If ANZ New Zealand retains substantially all of the risk and rewards of a transferred asset, the transfer
does not qualify for derecognition and the asset remains on ANZ New Zealand’s balance sheet in its entirety.
Covered bonds
ANZ New Zealand operates a covered bond programme to raise funding. Refer to Note 24 structured entities for further details. The covered bonds
issued externally are included within debt issuances.
Repurchase agreements
When ANZ New Zealand sells securities subject to repurchase agreements under which we retain substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership,then those assets do not qualify for derecognition. An associated liability is recognised for the consideration received from the counterparty.
The table below sets out the balance of assets transferred that do not qualify for derecognition, along with the associated liabilities:

Includes KMP, close family members of KMP and entities that are controlled or jointly controlled by KMP or their close family members, of ANZ New Zealand and its parent companies.
Includes holdings of units in the ANZ PIE Fund (a sponsored unconsolidated structured entity) which are invested solely in deposits of the Bank.

Loans made to KMP and their related parties are made in the ordinary course of business on normal commercial terms and conditions no morefavourable than those given to other employees or customers, including the term of the loan, security required and the interest rate. No amounts
have been written off or forgiven, or individually assessed allowances for expected credit losses raised in respect of these balances (2021: nil).
All other transactions with KMP and their related parties are made on terms and conditions no more favourable than those given to other employees
or customers. These transactions generally involve the provision of financial and investment services. In addition to the amounts above:• Aggregate amounts for each of unsecured loans and advances, interest expense, fee income, debt issuances and collectively assessed credit
impairment charge and allowance for expected credit losses were less than NZ$1 million for both years presented.
• KMP and their related parties also hold units in MIS managed by ANZ New Zealand. Transactions and balances in respect of these MIS holdings
are not disclosed because those MIS are unconsolidated structured entities and not included in the financial statements of ANZ New Zealand.
• Some KMP pay ANZ New Zealand for the use of carparks in premises owned or leased by ANZ New Zealand. These amounts were less than
NZ$0.1 million (2021: less than NZ$0.1 million).

UNDRAWN FACILITIESThe majority of undrawn facilities are subject to customers maintaining specific credit and other requirements or conditions. Many of these facilities
are expected to be only partially used, and others may never be used at all. As such, the total of the nominal principal amounts is not necessarily
representative of future liquidity risks or future cash requirements. Based on the earliest date on which ANZ New Zealand may be required to pay, thefull amount of undrawn facilities mature within 12 months.
GUARANTEES, LETTERS OF CREDIT AND PERFORMANCE RELATED CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees, letters of credit and performance related contingencies relate to transactions that ANZ New Zealand has entered into as principal –including: guarantees, standby letters of credit and documentary letters of credit.
Documentary letters of credit involve ANZ New Zealand issuing letters of credit guaranteeing payment in favour of an exporter. They are secured
against an underlying shipment of goods or backed by a confirmatory letter of credit from another bank.
Performance related contingencies are liabilities that oblige ANZ New Zealand to make payments to a third party if the customer fails to fulfil its nonmonetary obligations under the contract.
To reflect the risk associated with these transactions, we apply the same credit origination, portfolio management and collateral requirements that weapply to loans. The contract amount represents the maximum potential amount that we could lose if the counterparty fails to meet its financial
obligations. As the facilities may expire without being drawn upon, the notional amounts do not necessarily reflect future cash requirements. Basedon the earliest date on which ANZ New Zealand may be required to pay, the full amount of guarantees and letters of credit and performance related
contingencies mature within 12 months.

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
27. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (continued)
OTHER CONTINGENT LIABILITIESThere are outstanding court proceedings, claims and possible claims for and against ANZ New Zealand. Where relevant, expert legal advice has beenobtained and, in the light of such advice, provisions (refer to Note 20 other provisions) and/or disclosures as deemed appropriate have been made. In
some instances we have not disclosed the estimated financial impact of the individual items either because it is not practicable to do so or becausesuch disclosure may prejudice seriously the interests of ANZ New Zealand.
REGULATORY AND CUSTOMER EXPOSURESANZ New Zealand regularly engages with its regulators in relation to regulatory investigations, surveillance and reviews, reportable situations, civil
enforcement actions (whether by court action or otherwise), formal and informal inquiries and regulatory supervisory activities both in New Zealandand globally. ANZ New Zealand has received various notices and requests for information from its regulators as part of both industry-wide and ANZ
New Zealand-specific reviews, and has also made disclosures to its regulators at its own instigation. The nature of these interactions can be wide
ranging and, for example, may include a range of matters including responsible lending practices, regulated lending requirements, product suitability
and distribution, interest and fees and the entitlement to charge them, customer remediation, wealth advice, insurance distribution, pricing,competition, conduct in financial markets and financial transactions, capital market transactions, anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism
financing obligations, privacy obligations and information security, business continuity management, reporting and disclosure obligations andproduct disclosure documentation. There may be exposures to customers which are additional to any regulatory exposures. These could include classactions, individual claims or customer remediation or compensation activities. The outcomes and total costs associated with such reviews andpossible exposures remain uncertain.
The Bank self-identified three prescribed transaction reporting (PTR) matters to RBNZ, where transaction reports had not been filed within theprescribed timeframe. RBNZ has informed the Bank that it considers one of these matters (related to 6,409 transaction reports of a certain SWIFT
message type) to be a material breach, and the other two to be minor breaches, of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism(AML/CFT) Act 2009 relating to PTR. RBNZ’s enforcement team is considering this matter. The potential outcome of these matters remains uncertain at
this time.
LOAN INFORMATION LITIGATIONIn September 2021, representative proceedings were brought against the Bank, alleging breaches of disclosure requirements under consumer credit
legislation in respect of variation letters sent to certain loan customers. The Bank is defending the allegations. The proceedings are still at an earlystage. A hearing of the plaintiff’s application for leave to bring representative proceedings was heard before the High Court in May 2022. The Court
has ruled that the proceedings shall proceed as an opt-out representative action brought by one representative plaintiff on behalf of a class, being
customers who entered into a home loan or personal loan with the Bank between 6 June 2015 and 28 May 2016 and requested a variation to thatloan during that period.
WARRANTIES AND INDEMNITIESANZ New Zealand has provided warranties, indemnities and other commitments in favour of the purchaser in connection with various disposals of
businesses and assets and other transactions, covering a range of matters and risks. It is exposed to potential claims under those warranties,
indemnities and commitments, some of which are currently active. The outcomes and total costs associated with these exposures remain uncertain.
REVIEWS UNDER SECTION 95 OF THE RESERVE BANK OF NEW ZEALAND ACT 1989 (RBNZ ACT)
Following a RBNZ notice under section 95 of the RBNZ Act in July 2019, the Bank obtained two external reviews. The first review was on the Bank’s
compliance with certain aspects of the RBNZ Banking Supervision Handbook document Capital Adequacy Framework (Internal Models BasedApproach) (BS2B) (Capital Adequacy Review), and the second review was on the effectiveness of the Bank’s directors’ attestation and assurance
framework (Attestation Review).
A summary of the final Attestation Review was published in March 2022. The report found that the Bank has taken appropriate steps to address therecommendations from the 2019 Attestation Review report. The review noted that there has been a marked uplift in the overall capabilities within the
Bank in respect to the attestation process, with heightened focus and scrutiny from management, executives and the Bank’s board. The review also
noted while there are elements of the framework still in the process of being embedded, the key changes recommended in the 2019 Attestation
Review report have been appropriately addressed.
The final Capital Adequacy Review was completed in December 2021. The report found that the Bank had made significant progress to address noncompliance issues and improvement items identified by the 2019 Capital Adequacy Review report. In particular, as at 30 September 2022 all previously
non-compliant capital models have been approved by RBNZ.

Amounts relate to the ANZ PIE Fund, ANZ Investments Private Scheme and SIL Mutual Funds, and include fees for audits of annual financial statements, registry audits, supervisor reportingand other agreed upon procedures engagements.

ANZ New Zealand’s Policy allows KPMG New Zealand to provide assurance and other audit related services that, while outside the scope of thestatutory audit, are consistent with the role of an external auditor. These include regulatory and prudential reviews requested by regulators such as
RBNZ. Any other services that are not audit or audit-related services are non-audit services. The Policy allows certain non-audit services to be provided
where the service would not contravene auditor independence requirements. KPMG New Zealand may not provide services that are perceived to be
in conflict with the role of the external auditor or breach auditor independence. These include consulting advice and subcontracting of operational
activities normally undertaken by management, and engagements where the external auditor may ultimately be required to express an opinion on its
own work.

29. POTENTIAL NEW ULTIMATE HOLDING COMPANY
On 4 May 2022, the Ultimate Parent Bank announced its intention to lodge a formal application with APRA, the Australian Federal Treasurer and otherapplicable regulators to establish a non-operating holding company and create distinct banking and non-bank groups within the organisation toassist the Overseas Banking Group to better deliver its strategy to strengthen and grow its core business further.
Should the proposed restructure proceed, the Ultimate Parent Company will establish a non-operating holding company, ANZ Group Holdings
Limited, as the new listed parent holding company of the ANZ Group by a scheme of arrangement and to separate the Overseas Banking Group’sbanking and certain non-banking businesses into the ANZ Bank Group and ANZ Non-Bank Group. The ‘ANZ Bank Group’ would comprise the current
Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited and the majority of its present-day subsidiaries. The ‘ANZ Non-Banking Group’, would housebanking-adjacent businesses developed or acquired by the ANZ Group, as we continue to seek ways to bring the best new technology and bankingadjacent services to our customers.
The Explanatory Memorandum has been registered with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission and the Ultimate Parent Bank
shareholders will be asked to vote on the scheme on 15 December 2022. A copy of the Explanatory Memorandum is available on the website
anz.com/schememeeting.
This is not expected to have a material impact on ANZ New Zealand.

REGISTERED BANK DISCLOSURES

B1. GENERAL DISCLOSURES (UNAUDITED)
Details of registered bank, ultimate parent bank and ultimate holding company
The registered bank, which is also the ultimate parent bank and ultimate parent holding company, is Australia and New Zealand Banking Group
Limited (Ultimate Parent Bank). The principal office and place of business outside New Zealand, and address for service of the Ultimate Parent Bank, is
ANZ Centre, Melbourne, Level 9, 833 Collins Street, Docklands, Victoria 3008, Australia.
Subordination of claims of creditors
Certain creditors of the Ultimate Parent Bank are given a statutory priority under Australian law. Unsecured creditors of the NZ Branch could be
expected to rank behind such claims.
Specifically, pursuant to subsection 13A(3) of the Banking Act 1959 of the Commonwealth of Australia (the Banking Act), if an Authorised DepositTaking Institution (ADI) (which includes the Ultimate Parent Bank) becomes unable to meet its obligations or suspends payment, the assets of the ADI
in Australia are to be available to meet the ADI's liabilities in the following order:(a) first, the ADI's liabilities (if any) to APRA because of the rights APRA has against the ADI because of section 16AI or 16AIC of the Banking Act;(b) second, the ADI's debts (if any) to APRA under section 16AO of the Banking Act;(c) third, the ADI's liabilities (if any) in Australia in relation to protected accounts that account-holders keep with the ADI. (Broadly, this means
accounts (including deposit accounts) kept with the Ultimate Parent Bank that are situated in Australia and recorded in Australian dollars);(d) fourth, the ADI’s debts (if any) to the Reserve Bank of Australia;(e) fifth, the ADI’s liabilities (if any) under an industry support contract that is certified by APRA under section 11CB of the Banking Act; and(f) sixth, the ADI's other liabilities in the order of their priority (apart from subsection 13A(3)).
Unsecured creditors of the NZ Branch could be expected to rank as a creditor pursuant to the sixth paragraph, together with other unsecured
creditors of the Ultimate Parent Bank that do not otherwise have a priority claim under preceding paragraphs.
Subsections 16(1) and (2) of the Banking Act provide that, despite anything contained in any law relating to the winding-up of companies, but subject
to subsection 13A(3) of the Banking Act, the debts of an ADI to APRA in respect of APRA's costs (including costs in the nature of remuneration and
expenses) of being in control of the ADI's business, or of having an administrator in control of the ADI's business, are a debt due to APRA and havepriority in a winding-up of the ADI over all other unsecured debts.
Section 86 of the Reserve Bank Act 1959 of the Commonwealth of Australia provides that notwithstanding anything contained in any law relating to
the winding-up of companies, but subject to subsection 13A(3) of the Banking Act, debts due to the Reserve Bank of Australia by any ADI shall, in awinding-up, have priority over all other debts.
This description of the liabilities which are mandatorily preferred by law is not exhaustive.
These provisions affect all of the unsecured liabilities of the NZ Branch, which as at 30 September 2022, amounted to NZ$1,135m (2021: NZ$1,048m).
Requirement to maintain sufficient assets to cover ongoing obligation to pay deposit liabilities
Subsection 13A(4) of the Banking Act states that it is an offence if an ADI does not hold assets (excluding goodwill and any assets or other amountexcluded by the prudential standards for the purposes of that subsection) in Australia of a value that is equal to or greater than the total amount of its
deposit liabilities in Australia, and APRA has not authorised the ADI to hold assets of a lesser value. This requirement has the potential to impact on the
management of the liquidity of the NZ Branch.
APRA’s powers
The Ultimate Parent Bank is subject to extensive prudential regulation by APRA.
The Banking Act requires APRA to exercise its powers and functions for the protection of the depositors of Australian ADIs and for the promotion offinancial system stability in Australia.
Where APRA considers that an ADI may become unable to meet its obligations or suspends payment (among other circumstances), APRA can takecontrol of the ADI's business (including by appointment of an ADI statutory manager). APRA also has power to direct the ADI not to make payments in
respect of its indebtedness and to compulsorily transfer some or all of the ADI’s assets and liabilities to another ADI in certain circumstances and toincrease its capital in specified circumstances. A counterparty to a contract with an ADI cannot rely solely on the fact that an ADI statutory manager isin control of the ADI's business or on the making of a direction or compulsory transfer order as a basis for denying any obligations to the ADI or for
accelerating any debt under that contract or closing out any transaction relating to that contract.
The Financial Sector Legislation Amendment (Crisis Resolution Powers and Other Measures) Act 2018 (the Crisis Management Act) amended the
Banking Act (among other statutes applicable to financial institutions in Australia) and was intended to enhance APRA’s powers. Specifically, the Crisis
Management Act enhanced APRA’s powers to facilitate resolution of the entities it regulates (and their subsidiaries) in times of distress. Additional
powers which could impact the Overseas Banking Group include greater oversight, management and directions powers in relation to the Ultimate
Parent Bank and other Overseas Banking Group entities which were previously not regulated by APRA, increased statutory management powers overregulated entities within the Overseas Banking Group and changes which are designed to give statutory recognition to the conversion or write-off ofregulatory capital instruments.
The requirements of the Banking Act and the exercise by APRA of its powers have the potential to impact the management of the liquidity of ANZ
New Zealand.

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTREGISTERED BANK DISCLOSURES
B1. GENERAL DISCLOSURES (UNAUDITED) (continued)
Restrictions on the Ultimate Parent Bank’s ability to provide financial support
Effect of APRA’s Prudential Standards
APRA Prudential Standard APS 222 Associations with Related Entities (APS222) sets minimum requirements for ADIs in Australia, including the Ultimate
Parent Bank, in relation to the monitoring, management and control of risks which arise from associations with related entities and also includes
maximum limits on intra-group financial exposures.
Under APS222, the Ultimate Parent Bank’s ability to provide financial support to the Bank is subject to the following restrictions:• the Ultimate Parent Bank should not undertake any third party dealings with the prime purpose of supporting the business of the Bank;• the Ultimate Parent Bank must not hold unlimited exposures (i.e. should be limited as to specified time or amount) in the Bank (e.g. not provide
a general guarantee covering any of the Bank’s obligations);• the Ultimate Parent Bank must not enter into cross-default clauses whereby a default by the Bank on an obligation (whether financial orotherwise) triggers or is deemed to trigger a default by the Ultimate Parent Bank on its obligations; and• the level of exposure, net of exposures deducted from capital, of the Ultimate Parent Bank’s Level 1 Tier 1 capital base to the Bank should notexceed: (A) 25% on an individual exposure basis; or (B) 75% in aggregate (being exposures to all similar regulated ADI equivalent entities related
to the Ultimate Parent Bank).
In addition, since 1 January 2021, no more than 5% of the Ultimate Parent Bank’s Level 1 Tier 1 capital base can comprise non-equity exposures to its
New Zealand operations (including its subsidiaries incorporated in New Zealand, such as the Banking Group, and the New Zealand Branch) duringordinary times. This limit does not include holdings of capital instruments or eligible secured contingent funding support provided to the Bank during
times of financial stress.
APRA has also confirmed that contingent funding support by the Ultimate Parent Bank to the Bank during times of financial stress must be provided
on terms that are acceptable to APRA. At present, only covered bonds meet APRA’s criteria for contingent funding.
Effect of the Level 3 framework
In addition, certain requirements of APRA’s Level 3 framework relating to, among other things, group governance and risk exposures became effective
on 1 July 2017. This framework also requires that the Ultimate Parent Bank must limit its financial and operational exposures to subsidiaries (including
the Bank).
In determining the acceptable level of exposure to a subsidiary, the Board of the Ultimate Parent Bank should have regard to:• the exposures that would be approved for third parties of broadly equivalent credit status;• the potential impact on the Ultimate Parent Bank’s capital and liquidity positions; and• the Ultimate Parent Bank’s ability to continue operating in the event of a failure by the Bank.
These requirements are not expected to place additional restrictions on the Ultimate Parent Bank’s ability to provide financial or operational support
to the Bank.
Other APRA powers
The Ultimate Parent Bank may not provide financial support in breach of the Banking Act, as described under ‘APRA’s powers’ above.
Guarantees
No material obligations of the NZ Branch are guaranteed as at 11 November 2022.

ANZ New Zealand is actively preparing to produce CRD in accordancewith this timetable.
New RBNZ capital requirements
RBNZ has released new bank capital adequacy requirements applying to New Zealand locally incorporated registered banks, which are set out in
RBNZ’s Banking Prudential Requirements documents. The new capital adequacy requirements are being implemented in stages during a transition
period from October 2021 to July 2028. The key requirements are:
• The Banking Group’s total capital requirement will increase to 18% of RWA, including tier 1 capital of at least 16% of RWA. Up to 2.5% of the tier 1
capital requirement can be made up of additional tier 1 (AT1) capital, with the remainder of the tier 1 requirement made up of common equity
tier 1 (CET1) capital. The increased capital ratios requirement will be implemented progressively from 1 July 2022 to 1 July 2028. AT1 capital must
consist of perpetual preference shares, which may be redeemable. The total capital requirement can also include tier 2 capital of up to 2% of
RWA. Tier 2 capital must consist of long-term subordinated debt.
• The tier 1 capital requirement will include a CET1 prudential capital buffer of 9% of RWA. This will include: a 2% domestic, systemically importantbank capital buffer; a 1.5% 'early-set' counter-cyclical capital buffer, which can be temporarily reduced to 0% following a financial crisis, or
temporarily increased to prevent asset price bubbles from developing; and a 5.5% capital conservation buffer.
• Contingent capital instruments will no longer be treated as eligible regulatory capital. As at 30 September 2022, the Bank had NZ$2,241 million
of AT1 instruments that will progressively lose eligible regulatory capital treatment over the transition period to 1 July 2028.
• As an internal ratings based approach accredited bank, the Banking Group’s RWA outcomes will be increased to approximately 90% of what
would be calculated under the standardised approach. This will be achieved by applying an 85% output floor from 1 January 2022, andincreasing the credit RWA scalar from 1.06 to 1.20 from 1 October 2022.
RBNZ’s reforms will result in a material increase in the level of capital that the Banking Group is required to hold. The reforms could have a material
impact on the Banking Group and its business, including on its capital allocation and business planning.
Pending proceedings or arbitration
A description of any pending legal proceedings or arbitration concerning any member of ANZ New Zealand that may have a material adverse effecton the NZ Branch or ANZ New Zealand is included in Note 27 commitments and contingent liabilities.

Impacts of changes in gross financial assets on loss allowances

Explanation of how changes in the gross carrying amounts of gross loans and advances contributed to changes in loss allowance
Overall, loss allowances are 0.42% of gross balances as at 30 September 2022, up from 0.41% as at 30 September 2021. The NZ$44 million (6.2%)
increase in loss allowances was driven by an increase in the proportion of gross balances in Stage 2, and changes in the forward-looking economic
scenarios as described in Note 12 allowance for expected credit losses.

B6. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIESInformation about risk
The evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions have continued to challenge our operating environment. Our Risk Management Framework(RMF) has remained robust in the face of these challenges, enabling the sound management of our business.
The Board is ultimately responsible for establishing and overseeing ANZ New Zealand’s RMF, which is supported by ANZ New Zealand’s
underlying systems, structures, policies, procedures, processes and people. The Board has delegated authority to the Bank’s Board Risk
Committee (BRC) to develop and monitor compliance with ANZ New Zealand’s risk management policies. The Committee reports regularly
to the Board on its activities. The key pillars of ANZ New Zealand’s RMF include:• The Risk Management Strategy (RMS), which describes the approach for managing risks arising from ANZ New Zealand’s purpose
and strategy. The RMS includes: how the risk function is structured to support ANZ New Zealand’s purpose and strategy; the values,
attitudes and behaviours required of employees in delivering on strategic priorities; a description of each material risk; and an
overview of how the RMF addresses each risk, with reference to the relevant policies, standards and procedures. It also includes
information on how ANZ New Zealand identifies, measures, evaluates, monitors, reports and then either controls or mitigatesmaterial risks and the oversight mechanism and/or committees in place.
• The Risk Appetite Statement (RAS), which sets out the Board’s expectations regarding, for each material risk, the maximum level ofrisk ANZ New Zealand is willing to accept in pursuing its strategic objectives and its operating plans considering its stakeholders’,
depositors’ and customers’ interests.
• The Risk Culture principles, which are a subset of ANZ New Zealand’s organisational culture and an intrinsic part of ANZ New Zealand’s
RMF.
The material risks facing ANZ New Zealand per our RMS, and how these risks are managed, are summarised below.

Key material risks
Each key material risk has an associated RAS component, and where applicable, is measured by appropriate metric(s) and associated tolerance(s)representing the maximum level of risk appropriate to execute ANZ New Zealand’s strategic agenda. Metrics are prepared and reviewed at least
monthly. A risk appetite dashboard is prepared and reviewed by senior management monthly, and presented to the BRC at each meeting.
Risk type

Description

Managing the risk

Strategic
Risk

Risks that affect or are created by an organisation’s businessstrategy and strategic objectives. A possible source of loss
might arise from the pursuit of an unsuccessful businessplan. For example, Strategic risk might arise from making
poor strategic business decisions, from the sub-standard
execution of decisions, or from a failure to respond well tochanges in a business environment.

Strategic risks are discussed and managed through our annual
strategic planning process, managed by the Executive Committee
and approved by the Board. Where the strategy leads to an increasein other Key Material Risks (e.g. Credit Risk, Market Risk, Operational
Risk) the risk management strategies associated with these risks form
the primary controls.

CapitalAdequacy
Risk

The risk of loss arising from ANZ New Zealand failing tomaintain the level of capital required by prudential
regulators and other key stakeholders (shareholders, debt
investors, depositors, rating agencies, etc.) to support ANZ
New Zealand’s consolidated operations and risk appetite.

We pursue an active approach to Capital Management, which isdesigned to protect the interests of depositors, creditors andstakeholders through ongoing review, and Board approval, of thelevel and composition of our capital base against key policy
objectives. The ICAAP also operates as part of the management
framework for this risk.

CreditRisk

The risk of financial loss resulting from:• a counterparty failing to fulfil its obligations; or• a decrease in credit quality of a counterparty resulting
in a financial loss.
Credit Risk incorporates the risks associated with ourlending to business and retail customers who could be
impacted by climate change or by changes to laws,
regulations, or other policies adopted by governments or
regulatory authorities, including carbon pricing and climatechange adaptation or mitigation policies.
Includes:• concentrations of credit risk;• intra-day credit risk;• credit risk to bank counterparties; and• related party credit risk.

Our Credit Risk framework is top down, being defined by credit
principles and policies. Credit policies, requirements and procedures
cover all aspects of the credit life cycle from initial approval and risk
grading, through ongoing management and problem debt
management.

The risk that ANZ New Zealand is unable to meet its
payment obligations as they fall due, including:• repaying depositors or maturing wholesale debt; or• ANZ New Zealand having insufficient capacity to fundincreases in assets.

Key principles in managing our Liquidity and Funding Risk include:• ANZ New Zealand’s short term liquidity scenario modelling
stresses cash flow projections against multiple survival horizons’over which ANZ New Zealand is required to remain cash flow
positive; and• longer-term scenarios are in place that measure the structuralliquidity position of the balance sheet.

The effectiveness of the Credit Risk framework is assessed throughvarious compliance and monitoring processes. These, together withportfolio selection, define and guide the credit process, organisationand staff.

B6. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES (continued)
Risk type

Description

Managing the risk

MarketRisk

The risk stems from our trading and balance sheet activities
and is the risk to ANZ New Zealand’s earnings arising from:• changes in any interest rates, foreign exchange rates,
credit spreads, volatility, and correlations; or• fluctuations in bond, commodity or equity prices.

We have a detailed market risk management and control framework
to support our trading and balance sheet activities, which
incorporates an independent risk measurement approach toquantify the magnitude of market risk within the trading and balance
sheet portfolios. This approach, along with related analysis, identifies
the range of possible outcomes, that can be expected over a given
period of time, and establishes the likelihood of those outcomes andallocates an appropriate amount of capital to support these activities.
ANZ New Zealand’s key tools to measure and manage Market Risk ona daily basis include value at risk, earnings at risk, interest ratesensitivities, market value loss limits and stress testing.

Operational
Risk

The risk of loss and/or non-compliance with laws resulting
from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and/or
systems, or from external events. This definition includes
legal risk, and the risk of reputation loss, but excludes
strategic risk.

We manage Compliance and Operational Risk in the best interests ofour customers and the community and to meet expectations of theregulators. The Compliance and Operational Risk Principles (Level 1)
establish the fundamental requirements at ANZ New Zealand which
inform policies, processes, and procedure development of ANZ New
Zealand’s management of Compliance and Operational Risk,
through timely and appropriate identification, action andmonitoring. It is part of ANZ New Zealand’s RMF and ANZ New
Zealand’s I.AM (Identify, Act, Monitor) Framework (Level 2). We take arisk-based approach to the management of operational risk andobligations. This enables ANZ New Zealand to be consistent inproactively identifying, assessing, managing, reporting andescalating operational risk-related risk exposures.
Day-to-day management of operational risk is the responsibility ofbusiness unit line management and staff. Risk management,
supported by a strong Risk Culture, helps to seek to ensure all staff
are thinking about and managing risk on a daily basis – “Risk isEveryone’s Responsibility”.

Compliance Risk
The risk of failure to act in accordance with laws,
regulations, industry standards and codes, internal policies
and procedures and principles of good governance asapplicable to ANZ New Zealand’s businesses.

Key features of how we manage Compliance Risk as part of our
Operational Risk and Compliance Framework include:• centralised management of key obligations;• an emphasis on identification of changing regulations and thebusiness environment, to enable proactive assessment ofemerging compliance risk; and• recognition of incident management as a separate element toenhance ANZ New Zealand’s ability to identify, manage andreport on incidents/breaches in a timely manner.

Conduct Risk
The risk of loss or damage arising from the failure of ANZ
New Zealand, its employees or agents to appropriately
consider the interests of customers, the integrity of thefinancial markets and the expectations of the community inconducting its business activities. The risk may arise not
only from deliberate or negligent actions of individual
employees, but may also be inadvertent and caused byinadequacies in ANZ New Zealand’s systems, processes andprocedures.

Our approach to managing Conduct Risk is to seek to ensure thatrisks to customers, community and market integrity are identified,assessed, measured, evaluated, treated, monitored and reported withappropriate governance and oversight.

Technology Risk
The risk of loss and/or non-compliance with laws frominadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems
that deliver technology assets and services to customers
and staff. This risk includes technology assets and services
delivered or managed by third parties, and external events.

The articulation of Conduct Risk as a Level 1 Risk Theme under the
new Non-Financial Risk (NFR) model will help manage Conduct Risk
as a key material risk for ANZ New Zealand. To support the NFR
model, ANZ New Zealand has developed a Conduct Risk Framework
and Conduct Risk taxonomy which facilitate a clear and consistent
way of managing and monitoring the risk, and the risk is managed inconjunction with the Compliance and Operational Risk Framework(I.AM).
Our approach to managing Technology Risk is to manage ouroperational risks caused by the use of technology, including risks
associated with cyber security and third party providers, in a mannerthat seeks to ensure customer information is secure and service
disruption is within acceptable levels.

The risk specifically includes information security and cybersecurity and how information held by ANZ New Zealandneeds to be protected from inappropriate modification,
loss, disclosure and unavailability.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORTTO THE DIRECTORS OF AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITEDREPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE ANZ NEW ZEALAND DISCLOSURE STATEMENTOPINION
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements and registered bank disclosures of Australia and New Zealand Banking Group
Limited - ANZ Bank New Zealand and its related entities (ANZ New Zealand) in section B2, B3, B5 and B6 which comprise:••••the consolidated balance sheet as at 30 September 2022;
the consolidated income statement, statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended;
notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information; andthe information that is required to be disclosed in accordance with Schedules 4, 7, 11 and 13 of the Registered Bank Disclosure Statements(Overseas Incorporated Registered Banks) Order 2014 (as amended) (the Order).

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements on pages 4 to 67:••

give a true and fair view of ANZ New Zealand’s financial position as at 30 September 2022 and its financial performance and cash
flows for the year ended on that date; andcomply with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, which in this instance means New Zealand Equivalents to International
Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Standards.

In our opinion, the Registered Bank disclosures that are required to be disclosed in accordance with Schedules 4, 7, 11 and 13 of the Order are
included in section B2, B3, B5 and B6 of the Disclosure Statement:•••

have been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the guidelines issued pursuant to section 78(3) of the Banking (Prudential
Supervision) Act 1989 and any conditions of registration;
are in accordance with the books and records of ANZ New Zealand in all material respects; andfairly state the matters to which they relate in accordance with those Schedules.

In accordance with the requirements of clauses 2(1)(d) and 2(1)(e) of Schedule 1 of the Order, we report that:••

we have obtained all the information and explanations we have required; andin our opinion, proper accounting records have been kept by ANZ New Zealand, as far as appears from our examination of those records.

BASIS FOR OPINION
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs (NZ)). We believe that the audit evidence wehave obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
We are independent of ANZ New Zealand in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International Code of Ethics for Assurance
Practitioners (including International Independence Standards) (New Zealand) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Boardand the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International
Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA
Code.
Our responsibilities under ISA’s (NZ) are further described in the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements andregistered bank disclosures in section B2, B3, B5 and B6 section of our report.
Our firm has also provided other services to ANZ New Zealand in relation to review of regulatory returns, internal controls reports, prospectus
assurance or reviews and agreed upon procedures engagements. Subject to certain restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal
with ANZ New Zealand on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of ANZ New Zealand. These matters have not
impaired our independence as auditor of ANZ New Zealand. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, ANZ New Zealand.
KEY AUDIT MATTERS
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial
statements in the current period. We summarise below those matters and our key audit procedures to address those matters in order that the
Directors as a body may better understand the process by which we arrived at our audit opinion. Our procedures were undertaken in the context ofand solely for the purpose of our statutory audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole and we do not express discrete opinions
on separate elements of the consolidated financial statements.
ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES ($751 MILLION)
Refer to the critical accounting estimates and judgements disclosures in relation to the allowance for expected credit losses in Note 12 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.
The key audit matter
Allowance for expected credit losses is a key audit matter due to the significance of the loans and advances balance to the consolidated financial
statements and the inherent complexity of ANZ New Zealand’s Expected Credit Loss (ECL) models used to measure ECL allowances. These models are89

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTINDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
reliant on data and a number of estimates including impacts of multiple economic scenarios, and other assumptions such as defining a Significant
Increase in Credit Risk (SICR).
NZ IFRS 9 requires ANZ New Zealand to measure ECL on a forward-looking basis reflecting a range of future economic conditions. Post-model
adjustments to the ECL results are also made by ANZ New Zealand to address known ECL model limitations or emerging trends in the loan portfolios.
We exercise significant judgement in challenging both the economic scenarios used and the judgemental overlays that ANZ New Zealand applies tothe ECL results.
Additional subjectivity and judgement has been introduced into ANZ New Zealand’s measurement of ECL due to the heightened uncertainty
associated with the impact of the economic outlook on ANZ New Zealand’s customers, increasing our audit effort thereon.
ANZ New Zealand’s criteria selected to identify a SICR, such as a decrease in customer credit rating (CCR), are key areas of judgement within ANZ New
Zealand’s ECL methodology as these criteria determine if a forward-looking 12 month or lifetime allowance is recorded.
Additionally, the determination of an allowance for individually assessed impairment on Business and Institutional (wholesale) loans requires
significant judgement in estimating the expected future cash repayments and proceeds from the value of the collateral held in respect of the loans.
How the matter was addressed in our audit
Our audit procedures for the allowance for ECL and disclosures included assessing ANZ New Zealand’s significant accounting policies against therequirements of the accounting standard. KPMG Financial Risk Management and Economic specialists were used in ECL audit procedures as a core
part of our audit team.
We tested key controls in relation to:• ANZ New Zealand’s ECL model governance and validation processes which involved assessment of model performance;• ANZ New Zealand’s assessment and approval of the forward-looking macroeconomic assumptions and scenario weightings through challenge
applied by ANZ New Zealand’s internal governance processes;• Reconciliation of the data used in the ECL calculation process to gross balances recorded within the general ledger as well as source systems;• Counterparty risk grading for wholesale loans (larger customer exposures are monitored individually). We tested the approval of new lending
facilities against ANZ New Zealand’s lending policies, and controls over the monitoring of counterparty credit quality; and• ANZ New Zealand’s oversight of the portfolios, with a focus on controls over delinquency monitoring.
We also tested relevant General Information Technology Controls over the key IT applications used by ANZ New Zealand in measuring ECL
allowances, as detailed in the IT Systems and Controls key audit matter below.
In addition to controls testing, our procedures included:• Re-performing credit assessments of a sample of wholesale loans controlled by ANZ New Zealand’s specialist workout and recovery team, who
assessed these as higher risk or impaired, and a sample of other loans, focusing on larger exposures assessed by ANZ New Zealand as showing
signs of deterioration, or in areas of emerging risk. For each loan sampled, we challenged ANZ New Zealand’s CCR and Security Indicator,
assessment of loan recoverability, valuation of security and the impact on the credit allowance. To do this, we reviewed the information on ANZ
New Zealand’s loan file, understood the facts and circumstances of the case with the relationship manager, and performed our own assessmentof recoverability. Exercising our judgement, our procedures included using our understanding of relevant industries and the macroeconomic
environment, and comparing data and assumptions used by ANZ New Zealand in recoverability assessments to externally sourced evidence,such as external property sale information;• Obtaining an understanding of ANZ New Zealand’s processes to determine ECL allowances, evaluating ANZ New Zealand’s ECL model
methodologies against established market practices and criteria in the accounting standards;• Working with KPMG Financial Risk Management specialists, we assessed the accuracy of ANZ New Zealand’s ECL model estimates by reperforming, for a sample of loans, the ECL allowance using our independently derived calculation tools and comparing this to the amountrecorded by ANZ New Zealand;• Working with our KPMG Economic specialists, we challenged ANZ New Zealand’s forward-looking macroeconomic assumptions and scenarios
incorporated in ANZ New Zealand’s ECL models. We compared ANZ New Zealand’s forecast GDP and unemployment rates, to relevant publicly
available macro-economic information, and considered other known variables and information obtained through our other audit procedures to
identify contradictory indicators;• Testing ANZ New Zealand’s SICR methodology by re-performing the staging calculation for a sample of loans taking into consideration
movements in the CCR from loan origination CCR and comparing our expectation to actual staging applied on an individual account level in
ANZ New Zealand’s ECL model; and• Assessing the accuracy of the data used in the ECL models by confirming a sample of data fields such as account balance and CCR to relevant
source systems.
We also challenged key assumptions in the components of ANZ New Zealand’s post-model adjustments to the ECL allowance balance. This included:• Assessing post-model adjustments against ANZ New Zealand’s ECL model and data deficiencies identified by ANZ New Zealand’s ECL model
validation processes, particularly in light of the significant volatility in economic scenarios;• Evaluating underlying data used in concentration risk and economic cycle allowances by comparing underlying portfolio characteristics to loss
experience, current market conditions and specific risks inherent in ANZ New Zealand’s loan portfolios;• Assessing the impacts on the modelled ECL and the requirement for out of model adjustments. We also assessed assumptions used todetermine whether a SICR event has occurred; and• Assessing the completeness of post-model adjustments by checking the consistency of risks we identified in the portfolios against ANZ New
Zealand’s assessment.
We assessed the appropriateness of ANZ New Zealand’s disclosures in the consolidated financial statements using our understanding obtained fromour testing and against the requirements of NZ IFRS.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORTVALUATION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value of Level 2 financial instruments in asset positions $17,493 million
Fair value of Level 2 financial instruments in liability positions $16,506 million
Refer to the critical accounting estimates, judgements and disclosures of fair values in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The key audit matter
The fair value of ANZ New Zealand’s financial instruments is determined by ANZ New Zealand through the application of valuation techniques which
often involve the exercise of judgement and the use of assumption and estimates.
The valuation of Level 2 financial instruments held at fair value is a key audit matter due to the complexity associated with the valuation methodology
and models of certain more complex Level 2 financial instruments leading to an increase in subjectivity and estimation uncertainty. Level 2 financial
instruments represent 51% of ANZ New Zealand’s financial assets carried at fair value and 98% of ANZ New Zealand’s financial liabilities carried at fairvalue.
How the matter was addressed in our audit
Our audit procedures for the valuation of financial instruments held at fair value included:
Performing an assessment of the population of financial instruments held at fair value to identify portfolios that have a higher risk of misstatement
arising from significant judgment over valuation either due to unobservable inputs or complex models.
We tested the design and operating effectiveness of key controls relating specifically to these financial instruments, including:• Independent Price Verification (IPV), including completeness of portfolios and valuation inputs subject to IPV;
• Model validation at inception and periodically, including assessment of model limitation and assumptions;• Review and challenge of daily profit and loss by a control function;• Collateral management process, including review of margin reconciliations with clearing houses; and• Review and approval of fair value adjustments (FVAs), including exit price and portfolio level adjustments.
With the assistance of KPMG valuation specialists, we independently revalued a selection of financial instruments and FVAs on level 2 instruments. This
involved sourcing independent inputs from market data providers or external sources and using our own valuation models. We challenged ANZ New
Zealand where our revaluations significantly differed from ANZ New Zealand’s valuations.
We assessed ANZ New Zealand’s consolidated financial statement disclosures, including key judgements and assumptions using our understanding
obtained from our testing and against NZ IFRS.
IT SYSTEMS AND CONTROLSThe key audit matter
As a major New Zealand bank, ANZ New Zealand’s businesses utilise a large number of complex, interdependent Information Technology (IT) systems
to process and record a high volume of transactions. The controls over access, changes to and operations of IT systems are critical to the recording offinancial information and the preparation of financial statements which provide a true and fair view of ANZ New Zealand’s financial position andperformance. The IT systems and controls, as they impact the financial recording and reporting of transactions, is a key audit matter and our audit
approach could significantly differ depending on the effective operation of ANZ New Zealand’s IT controls.
How the matter was addressed in our audit
We tested the control environment for key IT applications used in processing significant transactions and recording balances in the general ledger. We
also tested automated controls embedded within these systems which support the effective operation of technology-enabled business processes.
KPMG IT specialists were used throughout the engagement as a core part of our audit team.
Our audit procedures included:• Assessing the governance and higher-level controls in place across the IT environment, including the approach to ANZ New Zealand policy
design, review and awareness, and IT risk and cyber security management practices;• Design and operating effectiveness testing of controls across the User Access Management Lifecycle, including how users are on-boarded,
reviewed, and removed on a timely basis from critical IT applications and supporting infrastructure. We also examined how privileged roles andfunctions are managed across each IT application and the supporting infrastructure;• Design and operating effectiveness testing of controls in place over change management, including how changes are initiated, documented,
approved, tested and authorised prior to migration into the production environment of critical IT applications. We also assessed theappropriateness of users with access to make changes to IT applications across ANZ New Zealand and whether access was commensurate with
their job responsibilities;• Design and operating effectiveness testing of controls used by ANZ New Zealand’s technology teams to schedule system jobs and monitor
system integrity;• Design and operating effectiveness testing of controls related to significant IT application programs per the ANZ Delivery Framework; and• Design and operating effectiveness testing of automated business process controls including those that enforce segregation of duties between
conflicting roles within IT applications, configurations in place to perform calculations, mappings, and flagging of financial transactions,
automated reconciliation controls (both between systems, and intra-system) and data integrity of critical system reporting used by us in our
audit to select samples and analysis data used by management to generate financial reporting.

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND BANKING GROUP LIMITED - ANZ NEW ZEALAND 2022 DISCLOSURE STATEMENTINDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORTCARRYING VALUE OF GOODWILL ($3,006 MILLION)
Refer to the critical accounting estimates, judgements and disclosures in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The key audit matter
The carrying value of goodwill is a key audit matter where there are a number of judgements required in the determination of the recoverable
amount of goodwill, and where the carrying value of goodwill is financially significant at the reporting date.
ANZ New Zealand uses a value-in-use (VIU) approach to estimate the recoverable amount of each Cash Generating Unit (CGU) to which goodwill isallocated. The reasonableness of the recoverable amounts was assessed using an implied market-multiples approach.
The uncertainties associated with the economic outlook increases the potential for impairment and our audit effort in this area remains elevated.
There is increased judgement in forecasting cash flows and assumptions used in the discounted cash flow models and market-multiples used in thereasonableness assessment.
We focused on the significant forward-looking assumptions ANZ New Zealand applied as part of its annual impairment test as at 28 February 2022,
including:• Revenue growth rates, and terminal growth rates in the VIU model. Available headroom for some CGUs is sensitive to small changes in theseassumptions, reducing available headroom or indicating possible impairment. This drives additional audit effort specific to their feasibility andconsistency of application to ANZ New Zealand’s strategy; and• Discount rates in the VIU model and the control premium in the market-multiples reasonableness assessment. These are complicated in natureand vary according to the conditions and environment the specific CGU is subject to from time to time.
How the matter was addressed in our audit
We involved valuation specialists to supplement our senior team members in assessing this key audit matter.
Working with our valuation specialists, our procedures included:• In accordance with accounting standards, assessing the reasonableness of the amounts allocated to the CGUs to which ANZ New Zealand
allocated goodwill;• Considering the appropriateness of the valuation method applied by ANZ New Zealand to perform their annual test for impairment against therequirements of the accounting standards;• Assessing the integrity of the VIU model used by ANZ New Zealand, including the accuracy of the underlying calculation formulae;• Assessing the accuracy of previous ANZ New Zealand forecasts to inform our evaluation of forecasts incorporated in the VIU model;• For each CGU, assessing ANZ New Zealand’s key assumptions used in the VIU model, including discount rates, revenue growth rates, andterminal growth rates by comparing to external observable metrics, historical experience, our knowledge of the markets and current market
practice;• Stress testing key VIU assumptions to consider reasonably possible alternatives;• Comparing the forecast cash flows contained in the model to the revised Operational forecast, reflecting the higher interest rate environment,
the increased regulatory minimum capital requirements and economic outlook;• Assessing key assumptions used in the market-multiples reasonableness assessment, which we assessed as being equivalent to a fair value lesscosts of disposal approach. These assumptions included future maintainable earnings, the control premium comparing the implied multiples
from comparable market transactions to the implied multiples used in the VIU model;• Determining whether there is sufficient appropriate evidence to support ANZ New Zealand’s conclusion that there is no impairment in goodwill
associated with any CGU;
• Assessing the reasonableness of ANZ New Zealand’s review for potential internal and external indicators of impairment. This review considered
the period from the annual impairment test as at 28 February 2022 up to financial year end; and• Assessing the disclosures in the financial statements against the requirements of the accounting standards.

REVIEW CONCLUSION ON THE REGISTERED BANK DISCLOSURES IN SECTION B4 RELATING TO CREDIT AND
MARKET RISK EXPOSURES AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY (SECTION B4)
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the registered bank disclosures relating to credit and market
risk exposures and capital adequacy as disclosed in section B4 of the Disclosure Statement, is not, in all material respects disclosed in accordancewith Schedule 9 of the Order.
We have reviewed the registered bank disclosures, as disclosed in section B4 of the Disclosure Statement for the year ended 30 September 2022,
which are required to be disclosed in accordance with Schedule 9 of the Order.

BASIS FOR CONCLUSION ON THE REGISTERED BANK DISCLOSURES IN SECTION B4
A review of the registered bank disclosures in section B4 in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity (NZ SRE 2410) is a limited assurance engagement. The auditor performs procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries,
primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. Our responsibilities underthat standard are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the registered bank disclosures in section B4 of our report.
As the auditor of ANZ New Zealand, NZ SRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial
statements.
