It gives us great pleasure to introduce the 2019 Annual Report of
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is a regional financial institution
headquartered in Gifu Prefecture, approximately the center of Japan.
Our domestic network of 155 branches and offices is centered
in Gifu, Aichi, Mie, and Shiga Prefectures.
Since the Company was founded in March 1896, it has been
guided by its management vision of always being respected and
trusted by the local community. We have advanced in step with our
region, always aiming to earn and maintain the unshakable trust of
our customers, shareholders, financial markets, our employees and
members of regional community. This history has led to the solid
reputation we now enjoy from the people in our home region, and
to our being named an officially designated financial institution by
Gifu Prefecture in 2015.
Adopting the standpoint of our customers, all members
of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank and its 10 consolidated subsidiaries and
affiliates—collectively comprising the Ogaki Kyoritsu Group—will
work together to help revitalize the regional economy.
Toshiyuki Sakai President
Takashi Tsuchiya Chairman
Message from the Chairman and President
1
The policy that lies at the heart of the business activities of the
Company is to always view its products and services from the
customer’s perspective.
For many decades, Japanese banks had been protected by a
web of regulations often described as the convoy system. Under
this protection, the banks had cultivated no sense of competition,
let alone a willingness to approach the issue of improving customer
convenience.
In the 1990s, a wave of financial deregulation swept across
Japan, heralding a new era in which banks could leave the
confines of the convoy system and compete with each other by
implementing their own ideas. In that context, we that the most
urgent task for all directors and employees is to realize that a bank
is no longer a privileged institution but a company in the service
sector, which must compete by providing the most attractive and
convenient services.
Since adopting this policy, Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has consistently
maintained a customer-first approach and tackled the challenges
that followed the deregulation of the banking sector, so that it
could boost customer convenience. Some of our key initiatives are
shown below.

Achievements Thus Far
The number of people who have registered their biometric information required
when using the “Pipit” ATM, which permits transactions with just a scan of their palm
identification (ID), surpassed 570,000. The Company began offering the “Pipit” ATM in
September 2012.
“Pipit” enables transactions with just a scan of the palm without a cash card, because
it recognizes users when they hold up their palm to the machine and it matches their
pre-registered palm biometric data. The reason the Company developed ATM transactions with palm ID was due to the many
depositors who lost their ATM cards during the Great East Japan Earthquake.
Since customers do not need to walk around with their ATM cards, “Pipit” offers everyday convenience, and thus registration is
growing along with rising disaster awareness.
In May 2017, using this palm recognition technology, we made it possible to verify identity with the palm when making
transactions at teller windows. Then in September of the same year, the Company opened the Terrasse Nayabashi branch, where
customers can verify their identity at ATMs, teller windows, and safety deposit boxes just by scanning the palm.
Customers Registered to Use Biometric ATM “Pipit” with Palm Identification Surpass 570,000
We have pursued a number of initiatives for 26 years to transform
the Company into a service supplier with the customer’s perspective
as the starting point.
These initiatives are now finally beginning to show significant
results. Because Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is a regional financial
institution, the number of individuals with whom it does business
is a very important barometer of its overall performance. The “Pipit”
ATM, which allows customers to conduct transactions with a scan of
their palm, is helping to accelerate the rate of increase in individual
deposit accounts, as the number of its registered users has now
surpassed 570,000. The Company’s approach, focused on raising
customer convenience, appears to have gradually gained the
approval of individual customers.

During the fiscal year under review, deposits increased ¥120 billion
year on year to ¥5,084 billion (US$ 45,806 million) mainly due to
accounts held by individuals.
The year-end balance of loans and bills discounted increased
¥90 billion year on year to ¥4,113 billion (US$ 37,058 million) as
a result of proactive measures to meet financing demand from
corporate and individual customers.
In the fiscal year under review, total income (operating income
plus extraordinary income) amounted to ¥117,493 million
(US$ 1,058,590 thousand), a decrease of ¥2,204 million year on
year. The decrease was mainly due to the impact of retirement
benefits appropriated in the previous fiscal year on extraordinary
income. Total expenses (operating expenses plus extraordinary
expenses) came to ¥106,943 million (US$ 963,537 thousand), up
¥1,946 million over the previous fiscal year. This was primarily
due to an increase in other operating expenses resulting from
the disposal of a portion of unrealized debt in the United States.
As a result of these and other factors, income before income
taxes for the year totaled ¥10,550 million(US$ 95,053 thousand),
while net income attributable to owners of the parent amounted
to ¥6,861 million (US$ 61,816 thousand).

In June 2018, the Company received a regional revitalization minister’s prize at the second annual Nihon Service Awards, the first awards program in Japan that recognizes initiatives for providing outstanding services. The award recognized the Company’s contribution to regional revitalization through a variety of user-friendly services, including ATMs that operate 365 days a year, drive-through branches, and services integrating biometric palm vein identification.
The Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank was ranked as the No.1 bank in Japan by U.S. business magazine, Forbes, in its “World’s Best Banks 2019” issue, published in January 2019. The rankings are based on a customer satisfaction survey of more than 40,000 customers in 23 countries, covering items such as reliability and customer service.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank Chairman Takashi Tsuchiya received an Outstanding Leadership Award in Corporate Communications* from the Japan Institute for Social and Economic Affairs. He accepted the award at the 35th Corporate Communications Awards ceremony held in September 2019.
* Outstanding Leadership Awards in Corporate Communications are given to top managers who recognize the importance of public relations, demonstrate receptiveness to ideas from in and outside their company, and actively promote communication and dialogue with stakeholders on business and community development initiatives, management philosophy, future business goals, and other relevant issues.

The balance of nonperforming loans subject to mandatory disclosure under the Financial Revitalization Law decreased by ¥8.6 billion from the previous reporting term, to ¥62.4 billion.
The ratio of such loans to total loans declined by 0.24 of a percentage point from the previous reporting term, to 1.49%, as a result of growth in the volume of the loan balance.
The majority of these nonperforming loans are covered by reserves for possible loan losses or by collateral or guarantees. Consequently, the coverage ratio (coverage of total bad debt) was 79.97% (¥49.9 billion).
Risk-managed loans under the stipulations of the Banking Law amounted to ¥61.6 billion.
Hitherto, in addition to accumulating profits as retained earnings, the Company has endeavored to build up its regulatory capital through financing for capital expansion, in order to create the sort of sound financial position required of a regional financial institution.
Regulatory capital as of the reporting term-end decreased from the previous reporting term-end to ¥243.9 billion, and risk assets increased reflecting a major increase in the loan balance. As a result, the capital adequacy ratio according to the BIS-based domestic standards decreased by 1.10 of a percentage point, to 8.26%.

The Company has drawn up a set of basic policies regarding the
creation of an internal control system, and the management
is working to enhance the effective functioning of the system,
particularly with respect to compliance and risk management.
We are also working to construct a system that will ensure the
adequacy of the Group’s internal controls on financial reporting
under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.
The Board of Directors of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank meets once
a month in principle to make decisions on important
matters and operational execution regarding the Company’s
management. In addition, directors periodically report on the
execution of operations and the risk status to the Board.
The Company ensures that operations are audited by its
management by requiring its corporate auditors to attend meetings
of the Board of Directors. To prevent complacency and to clarify
its management responsibilities, the Company limits the term of
office for directors to one year. With these initiatives, the Company is
committed to strengthening the functions of the Board of Directors.
The corporate auditors of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank hold meetings,
in principle every month, to discuss, determine and report on
important matters relating to audits, based on audit policies and
audit plans resolved by the Board of Corporate Auditors.
The Executive Committee consists of the chairman, president
and managing director of the Company. The committee discusses
important management matters, and controls and manages
the Company’s operations in general. In addition to Executive
Committee members, full-time corporate auditors attend
committee meetings.
As an advisory body to the Board of Directors, the Management
Advisory Committee submits proposals concerning the nomination
and remuneration of directors. The committee is comprised of the
full-time directors, external directors, and external auditors.
The Compliance Committee, chaired by the president of the
Company, holds regular meetings twice a year in addition to ad hoc
meetings as deemed necessary, and sets out the Company’s policies
on legal compliance. A Compliance Manual—detailing the procedures
to be followed to ensure compliance—is distributed to all executives
and regular employees of the Company, and compliance study
sessions are held for each separate employee rank. In this and other
ways, the management of the Company is actively working to foster a
corporate culture grounded in the spirit of compliance and a thorough
understanding of the laws applicable to the banking business.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank and its Group companies are pursuing the following as a means toward the ultimate objective: To always be respected
and trusted by the local community.
• Seeking to achieve swift decision-making at the management level, as well as overall management efficiency
• Realizing transparent management through substantial disclosure of corporate information
• Demonstrating the sincerity of the Group by practicing compliance and making contributions to the communities in our home region
These are the basic policies that we plan to follow in enhancing our corporate governance.

The management of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank recognizes the importance
of the public role played by banks, and the necessity of fulfilling
corporate social responsibilities. The establishment of an effective
compliance system is the vital first step that a bank must take to earn
the trust of its customers and shareholders, and for this reason we are
working to strengthen legal compliance within Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank.
The organizational structure of the Company’s compliance
system consists, first of all, of a Compliance Office within the
Management Administration Division, which serves as the central
supervisory unit for compliance-related matters. In addition, an
officer responsible for compliance is designated within each
division of the Company and at each branch office. By means of
constant liaison and collaboration between these officers and the
Compliance Office, we are able to operate a unified system for the
monitoring of compliance, covering both the Company’s head
office and all branch offices.
Additionally, the Compliance Committee (chaired by the president)
works to enhance the Company’s practice of compliance, and is
responsible for drawing up and revising the Company’s Compliance
Manual and Compliance Program, and for raising awareness of
compliance issues among the Company’s directors and employees.
The Compliance Manual, which is distributed to all directors
and employees, specifies the procedures to be followed to ensure
the practice of legal compliance. By overseeing the day-to-day
practice of compliance, the management of the Company is
working to build a compliance-focused corporate culture. Staff
education in the principles of compliance and specific banking-
related laws is also provided by means of separate study courses for
the different ranks in the Company’s hierarchy, as part of the
Company’s rigorous approach to ensuring legal compliance.
Inter-industry Training SystemIn 1998, we started an inter-industry training system that allows
young bankers to experience working in other industries and to
look beyond the boundaries of banking.
Participants train in a variety of industries, including hotels,
manufacturing and mass media. Entry into the training program
is by open application, and many young bankers enthusiastically
apply. Those who are chosen spend about a year in their second
workplace, where they consider the real meaning of service and
how banks should act as companies within the service sector. Later,
they provide feedback to the Company.
Convenience Plaza Handa is our representative branch
designed from the customer’s point of view. The idea came
from a banker who took inter-industry training as the manager
of a convenience store and then modeled a bank branch on a
convenience store. Also, a banker who did inter-industry training at
a TV station used his experience to plan, shoot, and edit a currently
airing TV commercial for Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank as well as promotional
videos shown in our branches.
Our inter-industry training system promotes flexible thinking
that is not limited by bank boundaries and that drives us to provide
services from the customer’s point of view.

The basic mission of a regional financial institution is to contribute to the
growth and healthy development of its regional community.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank launched its Social Contributions Committee in 1996.
This panel, comprised of members from all Group companies, revised its
name to the OKB Social Contribution Club in April 2016. This club leads
initiatives by the Group to make a real contribution to the development of
the region in which we operate.

Credit Risk ManagementCredit risk refers to the risk of a reduction or elimination of
asset value, and the resulting loss, owing to factors such as the
aggravation of the financial position of borrowers.
The Company carries out rigorous credit screening on an individual
loan basis prior to the extension of each loan, based on its Credit Risk
Management Regulations, and follows this up with close monitoring of
repayment. We also manage our loan portfolio as a whole to ensure
that loans are not overly concentrated on particular industries or
large-scale borrowers. Through this two-pronged approach, we are able
to maintain the soundness of the Company’s loan assets.
Maintaining its objective and independent status, the Loan
& Credit Supervision Division applies strict criteria to individual
loans in both the credit screening and post-loan management
phases to ensure that the loans contribute to the public good, have
reasonable prospects of repayment, the loans are profitable, and
borrowers have a sufficient degree of future growth potential.
In the management of the Company’s loan asset portfolio as a
whole, the Company conducts credit rating and self-assessments to
ensure that there is no undue concentration of loans in particular
industries, in particular corporate borrower sizes, or particular
geographic areas. The aim of these regular checks is to disperse risk
and create a well-balanced asset portfolio.
Market Risk ManagementMarket risk refers to the risk of a downward adjustment in the
value of the Bank’s assets (including off-balance-sheet assets)
as a result of fluctuations in market factors, including interest
rates, currency exchange rates and share prices, and the risk of a
downward adjustment in the value of the Bank’s assets as a result
of fluctuations in income generated by assets and liabilities. This
risk category is principally subdivided into interest rate risk, price
fluctuation risk, and exchange rate risk.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has drawn up a set of Market Risk
Management Regulations. The Company controls market risk
adequately through the administration of its credit limits. In
addition, the Company has established an organization that allows
controls to function by separating the market risk management
division (middle office) and the office work management division
(back office) from the market division (front office).
Liquidity Risk ManagementLiquidity risk refers to the possibility that the Company may not be
able to secure sufficient funds from its normal sources for necessary
operations, due to a mismatched term between fund procurement
and investment, or the occurrence of a contingent withdrawal of
deposits (known as funding risk). This may result in the Company
being forced to take funds at considerably higher interest rates
than normal, thus causing the Company to suffer a loss. Liquidity
risk also refers to the possibility that the Company may not be able
to engage in market transactions, due to factors such as market
turmoil (known as market liquidity risk). This may result in the
Company being forced to carry out transactions at much more
disadvantageous prices than normal, generating a loss.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has drawn up a set of Liquidity Risk
Management Regulations. The Company is applying the rules so
that it manages its funds in a conservative way. To prepare for any
contingency, the Company has also adopted measures to deal with
a liquidity crisis, and has established an organization that allows it to
make an immediate response.
The ALM CommitteeAt meetings of the ALM Committee held each month, policies on
securities management, funding and other matters are discussed
and adopted to improve profitability by keeping market risk,
liquidity risk and credit risk within their allowable ranges.
Operational Risk Management Operational risk refers to the risk of loss resulting from bank business
processes, the activities of executives and employees, or systems
being inappropriate, as well as from external events.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is committed to managing its risks properly, by keeping them in balance with income. The Company has developed and
adopted appropriate and effective risk management systems, based on risk details and scale. These systems comply with the Company’s Risk
Management Policies, which set out handling policies and organizational structures relating to risk management, and other risk management
regulations, management procedures and risk management regulations are stipulated for each risk category.
Specifically, the Company has established committees dedicated to risk management, including the ALM Committee. The Company has
also set up sections that manage risks in an integrated manner, as well as risk control and supervisory sections in each category. In doing so,
the Company has built a system through which the risk status is reported regularly and as required from the risk management sections to
the management directly. Operational audits are also carried out by the Audit Division, which is organizationally independent of the units of
the Company that it audits, to confirm the appropriateness and validity of risk management.

The Company classifies risks into the categories of (1) administrative
risk, (2) system risk, (3) legal risk, (4) human resource risk, (5) tangible
asset risk, and (6) reputational risk, and addresses risk management
in accordance with the Operational Risk Management Regulations.
Furthermore, at the Operational Risk Management Committee
that is held on a regular basis, efforts are made to improve the
effectiveness of risk management through discussions
aimed at understanding the status of operational risks and
possible countermeasures.
The management systems for the administrative risk and system
risk, which are key proponents of operational risk, are as follows.
Administrative Risk Management Administrative risk refers to the risk of losses, as a result of
negligence on the part of executives and regular employees in
the performance of clerical duties, accidents they cause, or acts
of dishonesty they commit.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is working to strengthen the
administrative risk management organization in compliance with
its Administrative Risk Management Regulations in order to
minimize the materialization of foreseeable categories of
administrative risk and thereby enable the Company to cope with
the diversification of the banking business and the trend toward
an increasing number of transactions.
Specifically, we are collecting and analyzing information on
administrative errors so that we can put in place measures to prevent
any recurrence and improve our administrative processes. We have
also set up administrative work support teams to help the branch
offices maintain an adequately high level of accuracy in
administrative work. Members of the team visit the branches to
supervise work procedures directly, and the team also conducts training
courses to raise the skill levels of branch staff. In addition, regular
training courses are conducted for different rankings of employees by
division to raise the administrative skill levels of the whole Bank.
System Risk ManagementSystem risk refers to the risk of the Company suffering monetary
loss as a result of the crashing or serious malfunctioning of one or
more of the Company’s computer systems, or the unauthorized
use of a computer system (such as the leakage of confidential
information to persons outside the Company).
In view of the vital importance to a bank of the information
in its possession and of the computer systems it employs,
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has taken appropriate steps to protect the
information in its safekeeping and to ensure the secure and
continued operation of its computer systems.
Specifically, the Company has instituted computer system risk
management, and has laid down the System Risk Management
Regulations, which set out policies regarding the management
of the computer systems themselves and the data (information)
contained within them. The Company is exerting its full efforts to
assure the confidentiality of information in its possession through
the application of the Regulations.
Information Asset ManagementThe term “information assets” as used here refers both to
information itself and to the computer systems used to store and
disseminate the said information. In the event that confidential
information is leaked to persons outside the Company, or
improper use is made of the Company’s information assets, the
Company could suffer considerable damage.
To ensure that Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank conducts its banking
business in an ethically correct manner, we have published our
Security Policy, which clarifies the principles that the Company
applies to the protection of information assets, in addition to the
Customer Information Management Regulations, which set out in
detail the procedures to be followed for the proper protection and
use of the Company’s customer information assets.

Consolidated Statements of Cash FlowsThe Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank, Ltd. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries
16
1. Basis of Presenting Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank, Ltd. (the “Bank”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (together the “Group”) have been prepared in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law and its related accounting regulations and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), which are different in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements from the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restructured and translated into English from the consolidated financial statements of the Group prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP and filed with the appropriate Local Finance Bureau of the Ministry of Finance as required by the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law. Certain supplementary information included in the statutory Japanese language consolidated financial statements, but not required for fair presentation, is not presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The translations of the Japanese yen amounts into U.S. dollar amounts are included solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan using the prevailing exchange rate at March 31, 2019, which was ¥110.99 to U.S. $1.00. The translations should not be construed as representations that the Japanese yen amounts have been, could have been or could in the future be converted into U.S. dollars at this or any other rate of exchange.
Amounts in yen are stated in millions of yen by discarding fractional amounts less than one million. Amounts in U.S. dollars are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars by discarding fractional amounts less than one thousand. Therefore, the total or subtotal amounts in both yen and U.S. dollars appearing in the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto do not necessarily match with the aggregation of account balances.
2. Significant Accounting Policies(a) ConsolidationThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and ten significant subsidiaries. In the elimination of investments in subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries, including the portion attributable to non-controlling shareholders, are evaluated using the fair value at the time the Company acquired control of the respective subsidiaries.
Certain subsidiaries may be excluded from consolidation due to their insignificance if their exclusion would not mislead one’s judgment as to the financial condition or result of operations of the Group considering the total assets, operating income, net income, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income, etc.
(b) Cash Flow StatementsIn preparing the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash on hand and deposits with the Bank of Japan are considered to be cash and cash equivalents.
(c) Trading Account SecuritiesTrading account securities of the Company are stated at fair market value. Gains and losses realized on disposal and unrealized gains and losses from market value fluctuations are recognized in earnings for the period in which the gains and losses arise.
(d) SecuritiesHeld-to-maturity debt securities are stated at amortized cost. Equity securities issued by subsidiaries that are not consolidated or accounted for using the equity method are stated at moving average cost. Available-for-sale securities with available fair market values are stated at fair market value. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are reported, net of applicable income taxes, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on the
sale of such securities are computed using moving average cost method. Other securities for which the fair market values are extremely difficult to calculate are stated at moving average cost or amortized cost.
Securities invested as trusted assets held by money held in trust whose primary objective is security investment are stated at fair market value.
(e) Tangible Fixed Assets (Except for Lease Assets)Tangible fixed assets are generally stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation of tangible fixed assets of the Company is computed primarily using the declining balance method. However, depreciation of facilities of buildings and structures acquired on or after April 1, 2016, is computed using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from 3 to 60 years for buildings and 3 to 20 years for equipment. Depreciation of tangible fixed assets of consolidated subsidiaries is computed mainly using the declining balance method.
(f) Intangible Fixed Assets (Except for Lease Assets)Depreciation of intangible fixed assets is computed using the straight-line method. Internally used software costs of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software (mainly five years).
For certain consolidated subsidiaries, software that is for sale is depreciated based on the estimated useful life of the software.
(g) Lease AssetsDepreciation of lease assets in “Tangible fixed assets” and “Intangible fixed assets” under finance leases, other than those that are deemed to transfer ownership of the leased property to the lessee, is computed using the straight-line method over the lease term with zero residual value, unless the residual value is guaranteed by the lease contract.
(h) Deferred ChargesAll costs incurred in connection with the issuance of corporate bonds are amortized over the redemption period using the straight-line method.
(i) Foreign Currency TranslationForeign currency denominated assets and liabilities of the Company are translated into yen primarily at the exchange rate prevailing on the consolidated balance sheet date.
Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities of consolidated subsidiaries are translated into yen at the exchange rate prevailing on their respective balance sheet dates.
(j) Reserve for Possible Investment LossesThe Group makes provisions for possible investment losses based on evaluations of its investments.
(k) Reserve for Possible Loan LossesA reserve for possible loan losses is provided according to write-off/reserve standards. For loans to normal borrowers and borrowers requiring special attention as stipulated in the “Practical Guidelines for Internal Regulations Governing Asset Self-Assessment by Banks and Other Financial Institutions and for Audits of Bad Loan Write-offs and Bad Loan Reserves” (Report No. 4 of the Special Committee for Audits of Banks and Other Financial Institutions by the Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“JICPA”), July 4, 2012), a reserve is provided based on the loan loss ratio, which is calculated for each category of loans using the actual loan losses during a specified period in the past. For loans to borrowers threatened with bankruptcy, a reserve is provided for the remainder of such loans in an amount deemed necessary after deducting the portion deemed recoverable through the disposal of collateral and/or the enforcement of guarantees. For loans to borrowers who are legally bankrupt or otherwise deemed insolvent, a reserve is provided to cover the losses remaining after deducting the portions deemed recoverable through the disposal of collateral and/or the enforcement of guarantees.
For claims originating in specific overseas countries, an additional reserve is provided for in an amount deemed necessary based on the assessment of such countries’ political and economic conditions.
Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsThe Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank, Ltd. and its Consolidated SubsidiariesFor the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018
17
Self-assessments of assets are conducted for all loans by the relevant business divisions in compliance with the Bank’s asset self-assessment standards, and the results of the assessments are verified and examined by the independent asset audit division. The reserves are provided based on the results of these assessments.
The consolidated subsidiaries write off loans and make provisions for possible loan losses based on their actual rate of loan losses in the past. However, unrecoverable portions of loans to customers who have a high probability of becoming bankrupt are estimated, and a reserve for possible loan losses is provided based on such estimation.
(l) Accrued Employees’ BonusesAccrued employees’ bonuses are provided for the payment of employees’ bonuses based on the estimated amount of future payments attributed to the current fiscal year.
(m) Reserve for Directors’ Retirement BenefitsA reserve for directors’ retirement benefits of the consolidated subsidiaries is provided to pay for future retirement benefits to directors and corporate auditors in the amount deemed accrued at the fiscal year-end.
(n) Reserve for Reimbursement of DepositsA reserve for reimbursement of deposits is provided for deposits derecognized from liabilities at the estimated amount of future claims for withdrawal based on historical reimbursement experience.
(o) Reserve for Customer Point ProgramA reserve for the Customer Point Program is provided mainly to meet the future use of points under the customer point system, entitled the “Thanks Point Present,” and the credit card point system provided by some consolidated subsidiaries at the amount deemed necessary based on the estimate of the future use of such points.
(p) Employees’ Severance and Retirement BenefitsIn calculating projected benefit obligation, the benefit formula method is used to attribute the expected benefit to the respective fiscal year.
Prior service cost is recognized as expense using the straight-line method over five years, which is a period within the estimated average remaining service years.
Actuarial differences are recognized as expenses using the straight-line method over 14 years, which is a period within the estimated average remaining service years, commencing from the year following the differences are recognized.
Consolidated subsidiaries use the simplified method for the calculation of net defined benefit liability and expense for severance and retirement benefits.
(q) Leasing TransactionsIncome and expenses related to finance lease transactions are recognized at the due date for lease payments.
(r) Derivatives and Hedge AccountingDerivative financial instruments are carried at market value.
(1) Hedging Interest RiskIn order to hedge the interest rate risk associated with various financial assets and liabilities, the Company applies the deferred hedge method stipulated in the “Accounting and Auditing Treatment of Accounting Standards for Financial Instruments in the Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24, February 13, 2002). In assessing the effectiveness of cash flow hedges, the interest sensitivities between the hedged items and the hedging instruments are examined. The hedging of certain assets and liabilities is accounted for by special treatment for interest rate swaps. Certain consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the special treatment for interest rate swaps.
(2) Hedging Foreign Currency RiskThe Company applies the deferred method of hedge accounting to hedge foreign exchange risks associated with various foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities as stipulated in the “Accounting and Auditing Concerning Accounting for Foreign Currency Transactions in the Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 25, July 29, 2002). The assessment of hedge effectiveness is conducted by confirming whether the notional amounts of hedging foreign exchange swaps or similar instruments correspond to the hedged
foreign currency denominated receivables or payables.
(s) Consumption TaxConsumption taxes of the Group are accounted for using the tax-excluded method.
(t) Amounts per ShareNet assets per share are calculated by dividing net assets attributable to the stockholders by the number of common stocks outstanding at the year-end (excluding “treasury stock”). Net income per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to owners of the parent by the average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year (excluding “treasury stock”). Dividends per share represent the actual amounts declared as applicable to the respective years.
(u) Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Effective“Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition” (Accounting Standards Board of Japan (“ASBJ”) Statement No. 29, March 30, 2018) and “Implementation Guidance on Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition” (ASBJ Guidance No. 30, March 30, 2018)
(1) OutlineThe International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the United States of America (“FASB”) jointly developed a comprehensive accounting standard for revenue recognition and issued “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (IFRS No. 15, issued by IASB and Topic 606, issued by FASB) in May 2014. Considering the situation that IFRS No. 15 has become applicable from the fiscal year beginning on and after January 1, 2018 and Topic 606 from the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2017, ASBJ developed a comprehensive accounting standard for revenue recognition and issued it together with implementation guidance.
ASBJ’s basic policy in developing the accounting standard for revenue recognition was to establish accounting standards as a starting point to adopt basic principles of IFRS No. 15 from the viewpoint of comparability of financial statements, which is one of the benefits of maintaining consistency with IFRS No. 15, and to add alternative treatments to the extent not to impair comparability in cases where previous practices and others in Japan should be considered.
(2) Date of ApplicationThe Company intends to adopt the standard and guidance from the beginning of the year ending March 31, 2022.
(3) Effect of Adopting the Revised Accounting StandardsThe impact of the adoption of the “Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition,” etc., on the consolidated financial statements is currently under assessment.

(d) Securities reclassified by holding purposeThere were no corresponding items for either the year ended March 31, 2019 or 2018.
(e) Impairment of securitiesSecurities at fair value other than trading securities are written down if their respective fair values have declined significantly as of the fiscal year-end and such decline is not temporary. The valuation differences based on such decline are recognized as losses.
Loss for impairment of securities recognized for the year ended March 31, 2019 was ¥948 million ($8,541 thousand). There was no corresponding item for the year ended March 31, 2018.

At March 31, 2019, certain securities and trading account securities in the aggregate amount of ¥1,544 million ($13,911 thousand) and ¥104 million ($937
20
thousand), respectively, were pledged as collateral for settlement of exchange at the Bank of Japan as a substitute for margin payments and for other purposes. “Other Assets” included guaranty money deposited for futures trading in the amount of ¥197 million ($1,774 thousand), deposits with the central counterparty in the amount of ¥40,000 million ($360,392 thousand), guarantees in the amount of ¥657 million ($5,919 thousand) and lease deposits in the amount of ¥718 million ($6,469 thousand).

There were no rediscounted bills at March 31, 2019 and 2018.
8. Commitment LinesCommitment line agreements relating to loans oblige the Group to lend funds up to certain limits agreed to in advance. The Group lends funds upon the request of an obligor to draw down funds under such agreements as long as there is no breach of the terms and conditions stipulated in the relevant loan agreement. The unused commitment balances relating to these agreements at March 31, 2019 and 2018 amounted to ¥1,372,792 million ($12,368,609 thousand) and ¥1,366,511 million, respectively. Of these amounts, ¥1,317,309 million ($11,868,717 thousand) and ¥1,317,229 million, respectively, related to loans for which the term of the agreement was one year or less or unconditional cancellation of the agreement was allowed at any time.
In many cases, the terms of such agreements run their course without the loans ever being drawn down. Therefore, the unused loan commitments do not necessarily affect future cash flows. Conditions are included in certain loan agreements which allow the Group either to decline a request for a loan drawdown or to reduce the agreed limit when there is cause to do so, such as when there is a change in financial condition of the borrower or it is necessary to protect the Group’s credit. The Group takes various measures to protect its credit, including having the obligor pledge collateral such as real estate or securities, upon signing the loan agreement and confirming the obligor’s financial condition at regular intervals in accordance with the Group’s established internal procedures.
9. Land Revaluation ReserveLand for commercial use was revalued in accordance with the Land Revaluation Law in the year ended March 31, 1998. The Company recorded in the consolidated balance sheets the difference in value before and after revaluation, net of taxes, as “Land Revaluation Reserve” in Net Assets and the amount equivalent to accrued taxes in relation to the revaluation difference as “Deferred Tax Liability on Land Revaluation” in liabilities.
At March 31, 2019 and 2018 the total fair value of land for commercial use that was revalued in accordance with the law was below book value by ¥7,025 million ($63,293 thousand) and ¥7,449 million, respectively.

The accumulated capital gain directly offset against the acquisition costs of tangible fixed assets to obtain tax benefits at March 31, 2019 and 2018 in the amount of ¥1,500 million ($13,514 thousand) and ¥1,504 million, respectively. There was no such a capital gain offset for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
11. Deferred Tax Assets and LiabilitiesThe difference between the statutory income tax rates and the effective tax rates reflected in the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were less than 5% of the statutory income tax rates applied to the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and therefore, no reconciliation has been disclosed.

The carrying amounts of the asset groups have been written down to the recoverable amounts due to the continuous decline in land prices, decreased operating cash flows and decisions to relocate such assets. The amounts by which the assets were written down were recognized as impairment loss. Operating assets are grouped by branch and idle assets are grouped severally. Head offices, business center, training institutes and company residences are classified as shared assets.
Recoverable amounts of the assets are based on the higher of net selling prices or value in use. Net selling prices were calculated based primarily on appraisal valuations, net of estimated costs of disposal, and value in use was calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows at a rate of 7.6% and 5.8% for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

22. EquityJapanese banks are subject to the Banking Law and the Companies Act. The significant provisions in the Companies Act and the Banking Law that affect financial and accounting matters are summarized below:
(a) DividendsUnder the Companies Act, companies may pay dividends at any time during the fiscal year in addition to the year-end dividends upon resolution at the general meeting of stockholders. A company may declare dividends (except for dividends in kind) at any time during the fiscal year if prescribed in its articles of incorporation and certain criteria such as the following are met: (1) the company has a Board of Directors; (2) the company has independent auditors; (3) the company has a Board of Corporate Auditors; and (4) the company’s articles of incorporation provide for a one-year term of service for directors rather than the normal two-year term. The Company meets all of the above criteria.
The Companies Act permits companies to distribute dividends-in-kind (non-cash assets) to stockholders subject to certain limitations and additional requirements. Semi-annual interim dividends may also be paid once a year upon resolution by the Board of Directors if the articles of incorporation of the company so stipulate. The Company may do so as its articles of incorporation stipulate as such. The Companies Act provides certain limitations on the amounts available for dividends or the purchase of treasury stock. The limitation is defined as the amount available for distribution to the stockholders, but the amount of net assets after dividends must be maintained at no less than ¥3 million.
(b) Increases/Decreases and Transfer of Common Stock, Reserve and Surplus
The Banking Law requires that an amount equal to 20% of the dividends must be appropriated as legal reserve (a component of retained earnings) or additional paid-in capital (a component of capital surplus) depending on the equity account charged upon the payment of such dividends until the total of the aggregate amount of the
legal reserve and additional paid-in capital equals 100% of stated capital. Under the Companies Act and the Banking Law, the aggregate amount of additional paid-in capital and the legal reserve that exceeds 100% of the stated capital may be made available for dividends by resolution of the stockholders after transferring such excess to retained earnings in accordance with the Companies Act. Under the Companies Act, the total amount of additional paid-in capital and the legal reserve may be reversed without limitation. The Companies Act also provides that stated capital, legal reserve, additional paid-in capital, other capital surplus and retained earnings can be transferred between such accounts under certain conditions upon resolution of the stockholders.
(c) Treasury Stock and Treasury Stock Acquisition RightsThe Companies Act also provides for companies to purchase treasury stock and dispose of such treasury stock by resolution of the Board of Directors. The amount of treasury stock purchased cannot exceed the amount available for distribution to the stockholders which is determined by a specific formula. Under the Companies Act, stock acquisition rights are presented as a separate component of equity. In addition, the Companies Act provides that companies can purchase both treasury stock acquisition rights and treasury stock. Such treasury stock acquisition rights are presented as a separate component of equity or deducted directly from stock acquisition rights.

(3) Valuation technique used for valuating fair value of stock options
Stock options granted in the year ended March 31, 2019 were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the principal parameters applied were as follows:
Stock Options 2018Expected volatility (Note 1) 25.2%Average expected life (Note 2) 1 year and 6 monthsExpected dividends (Note 3) ¥70 per shareRisk-free interest rate (Note 4) (0.12) %
Notes: 1. Calculated based on actual weekly stock prices from January 16, 2015 to July 16, 2018.2. The average tenure of directors who had retired in the past.3. The actual dividends on common stock for the year ended March 31, 2018, after taking into account the consolidation of shares executed on October 1, 2017.4. Japanese government bond yield corresponding to the average expected life.
(4) Method of estimating number of stock options vested
Only the actual number of forfeited stock options is reflected because it is difficult to rationally estimate the actual number of stock options that will be forfeited in the future.

(2) Nature and Extent of Risks Arising from Financial Instruments
Financial assets held by the Company comprise mainly loans to domestic corporate entities and individuals. Loans are subject to credit risk which represents a loss due to the default of borrowers.
As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, most of the Company’s loans were those originating from the Company’s branches located in the three Tokai Prefectures (i.e., Aichi, Gifu and Mie Prefectures). A material change in the regional economic environment may potentially lead to the default of obligations and non-performance of the terms and conditions of the relevant loan agreements.
As one component of cash management strategy, the Company invests in national, regional and public bonds as well as marketable securities issued by publicly listed companies. These investments involve credit risk related to the issuing bodies, interest rate risk and market risk.
Cash management through loans and marketable securities as well as fund procurement through deposits involves liquidity risk. Such risk causes difficulties in securing necessary funds due to interest rates or term mismatches, unexpected cash outlays or being forced to secure funds at unusually high interest rates.
The Company owns assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which are subject to foreign exchange risk.
The Company holds positions of interest rate derivatives such as interest rate futures, interest rate swaps and interest rate options. The Company holds positions of foreign currency derivatives such as currency swaps, forward exchange contracts and currency options. The Company also holds positions in bond futures, bond futures options and stock futures transactions as securities derivatives.
In transactions with customers, the Company utilizes interest rate swaps, interest rate options, currency swaps, forward exchange contracts and/or currency options.
The Company utilizes bond futures, bond futures options and stock futures transactions to avoid market price fluctuation risk in investments of marketable securities.
The Company utilizes interest rate and currency swaps to avoid interest rate risk, foreign currencies risk and liquidity risk in investments of marketable securities denominated in foreign currencies.
Under ALM, the Company utilizes interest rate swaps to avoid interest rate risk. Certain interest rate swaps are entered into as individual or comprehensive hedges and accounted for using hedge accounting. The assessment of hedge effectiveness is conducted according to the “Accounting Standards and Auditing Treatment for Financial Instruments in Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No. 24, February 13, 2002). The hedge effectiveness tests are conducted at inception to meet the requirements of “interest rate swaps subject to special treatment.”
The Company utilizes interest rate futures, bond futures and bond futures options in trading transactions.
Derivative transactions involve market risk, credit risk and other risks.
(3) Risk Management System for Financial Instruments
The Company endeavors to balance risks and revenues by executing an optimal risk management program. Under the program, the Company establishes an appropriate and effective risk management system according to the nature and scale of the risk in question. The system strives to conform to the Company’s “Risk Management Policy,” which sets forth risk management rules and structures as well as risk management procedures according to each risk category.
Specifically, the Company has established an ALM Committee and other risk management committees. In addition, the Company has established departments that address different risks in a comprehensive manner as well as a general managing department and a supervisory department for each specific risk category. These risk management departments report risk conditions directly to the Company’s management regularly and/or on an as-needed basis.
An ALM Committee meeting is held monthly to determine policies with respect to marketable securities investments and cash management for the purpose of controlling market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk within allowable limits, focusing on improving the Company’s profitability.
The Company’s Audit Division, which is organizationally independent from the Company’s other departments, is responsible for verifying the appropriateness and effectiveness of risk management by the Company.
(a) Credit risk management
The Company exercises appropriate control over credit risk related to loans through credit assessment of individual loan proposals, credit management (managing compliance of credit terms granted, daily credit management, management of problem loans), credit ratings and credit portfolio management (measuring credit risk through statistical methods, analyzing and setting maximum limits to eliminate credit risk concentration), all based on its “Credit Risk Management Regulations” and credit risk rules established by the Company. A general managing department and a supervisory department have been established as credit risk management departments, providing a structure for risk management.
Credit assessments and credit management are conducted at each branch of the Company or at the Company’s Loan & Credit Supervision Division. The Board of Directors and the Executive Committee hold meetings to report and discuss major customers regularly and/or on an as-needed basis. Credit portfolio management is conducted by the Company’s Management Administration Division, which regularly reports the status of credit risks to the Board of Directors.
The Company’s Audit Division conducts audits on the state of this risk management structure.
(b) Market risk management
The Company exercises appropriate control of risk by setting limits according to its “Market Risk Management Regulations.” The Company has segregated the market risk management section (middle office) and administrative department (back office) from transaction departments (front office), establishing an organizational structure with proper control functions. (i) Management of interest rate risk
The Company’s Market Risk Management Section sets risk limits, loss limits, maximum transaction limits and other limits related to interest rate risk as deemed necessary. The Market Risk Management Section reports daily and monthly regarding positions, gains/losses and risk status to the relevant directors, and also reports the same to the Board of Directors regularly and/or on an as-needed basis.
The Company exercises proper control of interest rate risks by setting limits according to its “Market Risk Management Regulations.”
(ii) Management of foreign exchange rate riskThe Company’s Market Risk Management Section sets risk limits, loss limits, maximum transaction limits and other limits related to foreign exchange rate risk as deemed necessary. The Market Risk Management Section reports daily and monthly regarding positions, gains/losses and risk status to the relevant directors, and also reports the same to the Board of Directors regularly and/or on an as-needed basis.
The Company exercises proper control of foreign exchange rate risks by setting limits according to its “Market Risk Management Regulations.”
(iii) Management of price fluctuation riskThe Company’s Market Risk Management Section sets risk limits, loss limits, maximum transaction limits and other limits related to price fluctuation risk as deemed necessary. The Market Risk Management Section reports daily and monthly about position, gains/losses and risk status to the relevant directors, and also reports the same to the Board of Directors regularly and/or on as-needed basis.
The Company exercises proper control of price fluctuation risks by setting limits according to its “Market Risk Management Regulations.”
(iv) Management of derivative transaction riskDerivative transactions involve market risk and credit risk. However, most derivatives are entered into for the purpose of hedging, thus market risk is limited mainly to trading transactions.
The Company establishes limits for each customer, thus avoiding risk concentration and reducing credit risk.
The Company’s counterparties are all highly trusted financial institutions and corporations which represent low levels of risk.
The department executing derivative transactions monitors daily balances and unrealized gains/losses and reports them to the Company’s management through the Company’s Management Administration Division, which serves as the general risk management department.
The Company establishes certain limits on trading transactions entered into for the purpose of short-term revenues so as to prevent excessive risk.

Note 1. Method for calculating the fair value of financial instruments
Assets
(1) Cash and Due from BanksThe fair value of due from banks with no maturity is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value approximates fair the value.
The fair value of due from banks with maturity is calculated at the present value discounted at an interest rate that reflects an interest rate estimated for new deposits per each contractual term. The fair value of due from banks with short contractual terms (within one year) is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value approximates the fair value.
(2) SecuritiesThe fair value of stocks is based on market price and that of bonds is based on market price or prices quoted by the corresponding financial institutions. The fair value of investment trusts is based on base value publicly disclosed.
Due to guarantee fees received from the issuing body, the fair value of guaranteed private placement bonds is estimated based on future cash flows (including guarantee fees) discounted by a yield estimated for newly issued guaranteed private placement bonds.
For additional information concerning held-to-maturity debt securities with fair values and available-for-sale securities with fair values held by the Company, see page 19, factor 3, “Securities and Money Held in Trust.””

Risk management is conducted according to the Company’s “Market Risk Management Regulations” and “Credit Risk Management Regulations.” Market risk in particular is centrally determined and managed by the ALM Committee (the general managing body).
(v) Quantitative information related to market risksa. Financial instruments for trading The Company holds securities and a portion of its derivative transactions for the purpose of trading, establishes various limits, such as risk, loss and transaction limits as deemed necessary and monitors the status of positions, gains/losses and risk of such financial instruments on a daily and monthly basis. The value at risk (VaR) for such financial instruments is not calculated since risks related to such financial instruments are limited.b. Financial instruments for other than tradingThe principal financial instruments of the Company that are affected by major risk indicators, interest rate risk and price volatility risk are stocks, bonds and investment trusts included in securities, loans and bills discounted, deposits, negotiable certificates of deposit, borrowed money and corporate bonds and interest rate swaps included in derivative transactions.
When calculating the VaR of these financial assets and liabilities, the Company applies the variance-covariance method (with a holding period of 120 days, confidence interval of 99% and observation period of five years). For those instruments whose VaR is difficult to calculate using the variance-covariance method, such as capped floater bonds, the VaR is calculated conservatively based on price volatility and the basis point value observed in similar types of instruments in the past. The calculated VaR is used in quantitative analysis when managing interest rate volatility risk and/or price volatility risk. The VaRs for financial instruments other than for-trading were ¥44,281 million ($398,963 thousand) and ¥50,929 million at March 31, 2019 and 2018 respectively.
The Company has performed back testing to compare VaR calculated by its internal model against actual profit and loss. The Company believes that the measurement model used captures market risks with sufficient accuracy. However, VaR measures the amount of market risk by certain occurrence probabilities which are statistically calculated based on past market movements. Therefore, the VaR may not capture risk with sufficient accuracy if there are sudden and dramatic changes in the market beyond normal circumstances.
The principal financial instruments of the Company that are affected by the major risk indicators of foreign currency risk are foreign exchanges, foreign currency denominated bonds including securities, foreign currency deposits and currency related transactions included in derivative transactions. The Company controls its foreign currency risk by establishing various limits such as risk, loss and transaction limits as deemed necessary and monitors the status of positions, gains/losses and risk of such financial instruments on a daily and monthly basis. The VaR for such financial instruments are not calculated since foreign currency risk related to such financial instruments is limited.
(c) Management of liquidity risk
The Company engages in conservative cash management according to its “Liquidity Risk Management Regulations.” The Company has also established the “Liquidity Crisis Response Measures” which serve as guideline for quick response in dealing with unexpected circumstances.
(4) Supplemental explanation for fair value of financial instruments
The fair values of financial instruments include market prices as well as reasonably calculated values in cases in which no market prices are available. Since the calculations of reasonably calculated values are implemented under certain conditions and assumptions, the results of such calculations will differ if such calculations are made under different conditions and assumptions.
30
(3) Loans and Bills DiscountedThe fair value of loans and bills discounted with floating rates is considered to be equal to the book value since the floating rate reflects market rate in a short period, and the book value of such financial instrument approximates the fair value, unless the creditworthiness of the borrower changes significantly from the origination of the financial instrument. The fair value of loans and bills discounted with fixed rates is calculated at the present value, discounting principal and interest of loans (grouped by type of loans, internal rating and period) at an interest rate estimated for a new loan of the same type. The fair value of loans and bills discounted with short contractual terms (within one year) is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value of such financial instruments approximates the fair value.
In addition, the fair value of loans to borrowers who are legally bankrupt or otherwise deemed insolvent and borrowers threatened with bankruptcy approximates the corresponding consolidated balance sheet amounts at the year-end less the reserve for possible loan losses since such loans, considered to be bad debts, are calculated based on the present values of expected future cash flows or the estimated recoverable amounts from collateral and/or guarantees.
The fair value of loans and bills discounted with no maturities due to conditions such as limiting the loans to the value of pledged assets is deemed to be the book value since such book value is expected to approximate the fair value considering the estimated loan period, interest rate and other conditions.
The fair value of loans hedged by interest rate swaps subject to special treatment includes the fair value of the derivative transactions.
Liabilities
(1) Deposits (excluding Negotiable Certificates of Deposit)The fair value of demand deposits is deemed to be the amount payable (i.e., the book value) if demanded on the consolidated balance sheet date. The fair value of fixed-term deposits is calculated at the present value, discounting the future cash flow for each specified term at an interest rate used for a new deposit. The fair value of deposits with short contractual terms (within one year) is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value approximates fair value.
(2) Negotiable Certificates of DepositThe fair value of negotiable certificates of deposit is calculated at the present value, discounting future cash flows for each specified term at an interest rate used for a new certificate of deposit. The fair value of negotiable certificates of deposit with short contractual terms (within one year) is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value of such financial instrument approximates the fair value.
(3) Payables for Securities Lending TransactionsThe fair value of payables for securities lending transactions with short contractual terms (within one year) is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value approximates the fair value.
(4) Borrowed MoneyThe fair value of borrowed money with a floating rate is considered to be equal to the book value since the floating rate reflects the market rate in a short period, the creditworthiness of the Company and the subsidiaries would not have changed significantly since the inception date and the book value of borrowed money approximates the fair value. The fair value of borrowed money with a fixed rate is calculated at the present value, discounting principal and interest and/ or discounted at an interest rate estimated for a new borrowing of the same type. The fair value of fixed-rate loans with short contractual terms (within one year) is considered to be equal to the book value since the book value of such financial instruments approximates the fair value.
The fair value of borrowed money hedged by interest rate swaps subject to special treatment includes the fair value of the related derivative transaction.
