Lloyds Banking Group plc
 
2016 Half-Year
Pillar 3 disclosures
 
28 July 2016
 
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
This report presents the condensed half-year Pillar 3 disclosures of Lloyds Banking Group plc (‘the Group’) as at 30 June 2016, prepared in accordance with European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines on Pillar 3 disclosure frequency. The report should be read in conjunction with the 2016 Lloyds Banking Group Half-Year Results News Release.
 
The EBA guidelines on Pillar 3 disclosure frequency set out key information that institutions in the EU banking sector should consider disclosing on a more frequent than annual basis under Pillar 3. The Group’s assessment of these guidelines has resulted in the disclosure of specific capital and leverage information at the interim quarter ends, with further detailed analysis provided at half-year as covered by this report. These half-year disclosures remain in addition to the full annual disclosure of the Group’s Pillar 3 report. Risk-weighted assets by type of risk are included in the individual half-year Management Reports for the Group’s significant subsidiaries; ‘Lloyds Bank Group’ and ‘Bank of Scotland Group’.
 
A number of significant differences exist between accounting disclosures published in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Pillar 3 disclosures published in accordance with prudential requirements which prevent direct comparison in a number of areas. Of particular note are the differences surrounding scope of consolidation, the definition of credit risk exposure and the recognition, classification and valuation of capital securities.
 
Unless otherwise specified, credit risk exposures are defined as the exposure at default (EAD), prior to the application of credit risk mitigation (CRM). EAD is defined as the aggregate of drawn (on balance sheet) exposures, undrawn (off balance sheet) commitments and contingent liabilities, after application of credit conversion factors (CCF), and other relevant regulatory adjustments. Notable exceptions to this definition include securitisation positions and counterparty credit risk exposures. A summary, noting the definitions applied, is provided below.
 
Exposure type
Exposure type
Credit risk exposures (excluding securitisation positions)
EAD pre CRM 1
Counterparty credit risk exposures
EAD post CRM
Securitisation positions
The aggregate of the Group’s retained or purchased positions, excluding those positions rated below BB- or that are unrated and therefore deducted from capital.

For credit risk exposures risk-weighted under the Standardised Approach the EAD pre CRM value is stated net of specific credit risk adjustments (SCRAs). SCRAs relating to credit risk exposures risk-weighted under a relevant Internal Ratings Based (IRB) Approach methodology are netted against expected losses.

Threshold risk-weighted assets reflect the element of significant investments and deferred tax assets that are permitted to be risk-weighted instead of deducted from CET1 capital. Significant investments primarily arise from the investment in the Group’s Insurance business.
 
2
 
Differences may arise between transitional and fully loaded threshold risk-weighted assets where deferred tax assets reliant on future profitability and arising from temporary timing differences and significant investments exceed the fully loaded threshold limit, resulting in an increase in amounts deducted from CET1 capital rather than being risk-weighted.
3
 
Counterparty credit risk includes movements in contributions to the default fund of central counterparties and movements in credit valuation adjustment risk.
 
The risk-weighted assets movement table provides analysis of the reduction in risk-weighted assets in the period by risk type and an insight into the key drivers of the movements. The key driver analysis is compiled on a monthly basis through the identification and categorisation of risk-weighted asset movements and is subject to management judgment.
 
Movements in credit risk-weighted assets in the six months to 30 June 2016 were driven by the following:
Asset size movements include risk-weighted asset movements arising from new lending and asset run-off. During the six months to 30 June, credit risk-weighted assets assessed on both Standardised and Internal Ratings Based approaches decreased by £2.8 billion primarily due to repayments and exits, partly offset by growth in targeted customer segments.
Disposal of the Group’s interest in Visa Europe and further disposals within the run-off business reduced credit risk- weighted assets by £1.7 billion.
Model update increases of £3.2 billion were mainly driven by a change in approach for the Retail Buy-to-let mortgage portfolio and other small model refinements.
Methodology and policy movements include changes due to refinements in the application of regulatory policy.
Asset quality movements capture movements in the assessed quality of assets due to changes in borrower risk, including changes in the economic environment. Net reductions in credit risk-weighted assets of £1.8 billion primarily relate to model calibrations and a net change in credit quality, partially offset by increases in valuation of centrally held strategic equity investments.
Foreign exchange movements reflect the depreciation of Sterling which has contributed to a £2.9 billion increase in credit risk-weighted assets of which £2.3 billion arose in the final week of June following the outcome of the EU referendum.
 
 
Counterparty credit risk and CVA risk increases of £0.6 billion are principally driven by yield curve and foreign exchange movements of which £0.9 billion arose in the final week of June following the outcome of the EU referendum, partially offset by increased capital relief from CVA related hedges.
 
Market risk-weighted assets reduced by £0.9 billion due to a reduction in the Value-at-Risk multiplier and active portfolio management.
 
 
 
The risk-weighted assets and Pillar 1 capital requirements, by key regulatory risk type, of the Group as at 30 June 2016 are presented in the table below.

Credit risk exposures subject to other IRB approaches include specialised lending exposures risk-weighted in accordance with supervisory slotting criteria, equity exposures risk-weighted in accordance with the Simple Risk Weight Method and securitisation positions risk-weighted in accordance with the Internal Assessment Approach (IAA) and Ratings Based Approach (RBA).
 
2
 
Securitisation positions exclude amounts allocated to the 1,250 per cent risk weight category. These amounts are deducted from capital after the application of specific credit risk adjustments (SCRA), rather than being risk-weighted.

Other items (Standardised Approach) and non-credit obligation assets (IRB Approach) predominantly relate to other balance sheet assets that have no associated credit risk. These comprise various non-financial assets, including fixed assets, cash, items in the course of collection, prepayments and sundry debtors.

1
Credit risk exposures subject to other IRB approaches include corporate specialised lending exposures risk-weighted in accordance with supervisory slotting criteria, equity exposures risk-weighted in accordance with the Simple Risk Weight Method and securitisation positions risk-weighted in accordance with the IAA and the RBA.
2
Securitisation positions exclude amounts allocated to the 1,250 per cent risk weight category. These amounts are deducted from capital, after the application of SCRAs, rather than being risk-weighted at 1,250 per cent.
3
Other items (Standardised Approach) and non−credit obligation assets (IRB approach) predominantly relate to other balance sheet assets that have no associated credit risk. These comprise various non−financial assets, including fixed assets, cash, items in the course of collection, prepayments and sundry debtors.
 
 
 
Exposures subject to the IRB approach – key movements
 
FIRB Corporate Main
Overall Corporate Main exposures have remained relatively flat, with underlying reductions driven by active portfolio management, offset by the impact of Sterling depreciation, particularly in the last week of June.
 
FIRB Corporate SME
The average risk-weight on FIRB Corporate SME lending has reduced to 66 per cent, driven by targeted new lending which has resulted in an overall improvement in credit quality. This has also led to a reduction in the average PD.
 
FIRB Central governments and central banks
FIRB Central governments and central banks exposures increased by £5.1 billion driven by an increase in deposits with the Federal Reserve. 
 
Retail IRB Residential mortgages
Retail IRB residential mortgage exposures decreased by £3.5 billion reflecting the Group’s focus on balancing margin and risk considerations with volume growth in the current competitive low growth market. The small increase in average risk weight was driven by model updates.
 
Retail Qualifying revolving
Retail IRB Qualifying revolving retail exposures increased by £0.4 billion largely due to targeted growth in credit cards. The average risk weight reduced from 34 per cent to 32 per cent largely due to improved asset quality.
 
Retail Other non-SME
Retail other (non-SME) exposures have increased by £1.0 billion and average risk weights have reduced from 79 per cent to 75 per cent primarily as a result of continued growth in UK Motor Finance
 
Equities
There was a minimal reduction in equities compared to December 2015 as the impact of disposals of certain strategic investments (including Visa Europe) was largely offset by increases in the valuation of centrally held investments.
 
Securitisation positions
Securitisation exposures decreased by £1.3 billion mainly due to net sales in the period.
 
Exposures subject to the Standardised Approach – key movements
 
Standardised Central governments and central banks
Standardised central governments and central banks’ exposures increased by £11.5 billion primarily due to management of the liquid asset portfolio, specifically placement of funds with European sovereigns, primarily Netherlands.
 
 
Internal Rating Scales
Within the Group, PD internal rating scales are used in assessing the credit quality of the Foundation IRB and Retail IRB portfolios. Two separate scales exist within the business – a Corporate Master Scale which covers all relevant corporate, central government and central bank and institution portfolios and a Retail Master Scale which covers all relevant retail portfolios.
 
PD master scales
 
Table 4: Corporate master scale
In commercial portfolios the PD models segment counterparties into a number of rating grades, with each grade representing a defined range of default probabilities and there are a number of different model rating scales. Counterparties/exposures migrate between rating grades if the assessment of the PD changes. The modelled PD ‘map’ through local scales to a single Corporate (non-retail) master scale comprising of 19 non-default ratings. Together with four default ratings the Corporate master scale forms the basis on which internal reporting is completed. These ratings scales can also be mapped to External Ratings as shown below.

Table 5: Retail master scale
In the principal retail portfolios, EAD and loss given default models are also in use. For reporting purposes, customers are segmented into a number of rating grades, each representing a defined range of default probabilities and exposures migrate between rating grades if the assessment of the counterparty PD changes. The Retail master scale comprises 13 non-default ratings and one default rating.

Undrawn commitments predominantly relate to pipeline mortgages, offered but not drawn down by the customer.

Corporate Specialised Lending Exposures Subject to Supervisory Slotting
The Group applies the Supervisory Slotting Approach to certain corporate specialised lending exposures (including the Group’s commercial real estate exposures).
 
As at 30 June 2016 corporate specialised lending exposures subject to supervisory slotting amounted to £19.8 billion (31 December 2015: £19.9 billion). Risk-weighted assets arising from this amounted to £14.3 billion (31 December 2015: £14.4 billion) as analysed in the table below.

The average risk weight percentage in the Strong slotting grade is below the specified regulatory value as a result of exposures to customers which are classed as Strong, typically in the shipping industry, having facilities which have been structured such that the Group also benefits from additional financial collateral from third parties which is not ordinarily part of the security package for Slotting transactions. As a result, recognition of the collateral is applied outside the standard Slotting risk weights, in line with the IRB approach, resulting in a risk weight that is below that ordinarily used in Slotting.
 
2
Exposures categorised as 'default' do not attract a risk weighting but are instead treated as expected loss deductions at a rate of 50 per cent of the exposure value.
