Financial Review (Consolidated) Message from the President

I would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation to all of our stakeholders. Since our establishment in 1873 as Dai-yon Kokuritsu Ginko (“the Fourth National Bank of Japan”), Daishi Bank has grown in partnership with the people of Niigata Prefecture, the regional community in which the main business of Daishi Bank is located. We are grateful for the constant support and encouragement we receive from our customers, shareholders, and the regional community.  The difficult operating conditions in FY 2008 in international financial markets improved in FY 2009 for the Japanese economy. Exports picked up at the beginning of the fiscal year and stimulus measures began to see results. By the end of the fiscal year, clear signs of recovery were on the horizon. Unfortunately, the ability of the Japanese economy to rebound on its own was limited, and so the business environment remains challenging.  Clear signs of recovery were no more forthcoming in Niigata Prefecture, Daishi Bank’s main operating base. As with the national economy, gradual improvement in production activity was seen, however business appetite for capital investment and consumers’ desire to invest in residential housing remained low, while employment stayed unfavorable.  Daishi Bank’s reaction to these difficult prospects is

contained in the “Daishi AAAA (Four-A) Plan”, our current middle-term plan launched in FY 2009 and covering the period April, 2009 to March, 2012. The “Four-A” designation conveys our commitment to visit our customers frequently (Ashi), work diligently (Ase), use our heads to devise high-quality solutions (Atama), and convey to customers our deep and sincere gratitude (Arigato) for their support. This Four-A commitment forms the basis for four core strategies for strengthening relationships of trust with our customers: innovation in retail branches, boosting profitability, restructuring of personnel, and pursuit of customer satisfaction.  These strategies manifest themselves in a number of specific programs. To serve individual customers better, we supplemented yen-denominated deposits with mutual funds, foreign-currency accounts, and insurance products. In individual loans, Daishi Bank offered reduced interest rates on loans taken out to purchase environmentally friendly homes or vehicles. To supplement Tokimeki Niigata Teiki Yokin, a term deposit launched in 2009 to support the National Athletic Meet at Niigata, we launched the Tenchijin campaign in cooperation with Yamagata Bank and Toho Bank, which are also located in Sengoku Period warlord Naoe Kanetsugu country.

54 THE DAISHI BANK THE DAISHI BANK 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 2010 ANNUAL REPORT

 For corporate customers, Daishi Bank has made efforts in support for businesses throughout the prefecture, providing a wide variety of syndicated loans and “emer-gency economic response loan-guarantee systems” through National Federation of Credit Guarantee Corpora-tions. We are also actively working in business-matching activities for assisting customers starting new businesses or expanding business dealings. To the existing Daishi

Food Seminar, Daishi Bank added the “Niigata Food and Ecology Exhibition and Seminar”, which is geared to spur business discussions related to the environment and new energy sources, two areas expected to yield high growth. We also strengthened our support for agriculture, one of the economic mainstays of Niigata Prefecture, with Agri-Frontier, a loan product for farmers provided in partner-ship with the Credit Guarantee Agriculture Fund Associa-tion.

 Daishi Bank has responded quickly and appropriately to provide small business with advisory services, making ever stronger efforts to maintain smooth financing. These advisory services include consultation to SMEs on new loans and changes to the terms of loans including home loans. Daishi Bank even offered seminars to business-people with tips on improving management. By strength-ening our functions as a guide and advisor, Daishi Bank continued to fulfill our mission as a regional financial institution. In FY 2009, Daishi Bank enhanced our branch office network and systems in preparation for the rollout of comprehensive financial services and greater conve-nience. Takada Main ofice and Nagaoka Main office were opened, boasting innovations such as Consulting Plaza, a total support system for individuals’ financial lifestyles. Branches of the group company Niigata Securities were also established within. These large branches offered customers the convenience of one-stop financial shopping. Daishi Bank also opened two new locations: Nagaoka-nishi Branch, which was moved from a previous location, and Takada Sales Office, Honcho local office. To acceler-ate improvements to services and product development as well as IT related cost reduction, Daishi Bank joined with Chiba Bank, Hokkoku Bank, Chugoku Bank, and Iyo Bank for the Tsubasa Project. In this project, the banks conferred to standardize a wide range of systems. As a result, a common call center was established in November 2009 while preparing the introduction of a new sales office system which will be linked to a newly introduced CRM system. By the end of FY 2010, Daishi Bank expects to move to this system at all branches. In addition to strengthening our environmental stance, in February 2010 Daishi Bank launched Daishi Eco Action, which we followed in April by proclaiming an official Environmental Policy. Under this policy, we are enlightening all directors and employees on environmen-tal issues, providing support to businesses in environment-friendly operations through financial services, as well as actively implementing our own efforts

to preserve the environment.  Through all these and other measures to meet custom-ers’ financial needs with high quality service, Daishi Bank desires to be a bank continually chosen by stakeholders such as shareholders and customers in the region. To this end, we believe it is vital to gain their trust as a financial organization that fulfills its corporate social responsibility and is firmly rooted in society through contribution to regional communities, environmental conservation activi-ties, and thorough implementation of the core of bank management, compliance.  On behalf of the directors and employees of the Daishi Bank Group, I thank you for your continuing support, encouragement, and patronage.

『AAAA(Four-A)』Four-A stands for ashi (feet), ase (sweat), atama (head), and arigato (thank you). It also reflects our desire to earn the highest credit rating—higher even than the highest possible rating of AAA.

『Strengthening bonds of trust with customers』We achieve our mission by cultivating strong relationships of mutual trust with our customers.

Securing revenues and a sound financial constitution

Four management strategies

Daishi Bank will strengthen relationship-banking operations by reinventing our branches as consultation and sales bases.

Strategy II: Bolstering profitability

Da ish i Bank w i l l f ocus on customer needs, fostering close teamwork between branches and the head office to advance a comprehensive menu of finan-cial services.

Strategy III: Personnel restructuring

Bank personnel are the corner-stone of our operations. We will train our personnel in a planned and systematic manner.

Strategy I: Reforming branch operations

We will strengthen our relationship of trust with customers by accurately responding to their needs from customers’ perspec-tives.

Strategy IV: Pursuit of customer satisfaction

Financial services with roots in the regional community

Basis of operations Improving the quality of compliance

The AAAA (Four-A) Plan logoRecalling the motif of the lucky four-leaf clover, the Four-A Plan logo combines the four themes of ashi (feet; going to where the customer is), ase (sweat: working hard for the customer), atama (head: using our brains to find solutions), and arigato (thank you: a spirit of gratitude). The gradations in the leaves express the nurturing and growth of new shoots.  Beginning in April 2010, all directors and employees wear badges with the Four-A logo to enhance awareness of the plan.

76 THE DAISHI BANK THE DAISHI BANK 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 2010 ANNUAL REPORT

Defined-contribution pension plans are corporate pensions offered in addition to public pensions. The key feature of these pension plans is that contributors (employees) decide how their pension assets are invested in consideration of their own expected needs in old age.  Daishi Bank helps customers prepare for retirement. We design pension plans for companies to implement, offering

employee seminars and other forms of support. After they retire, customers can take advantage of our system for detailed consultation at branches. Daishi Bank is proud to support sound capital formation for private-sector employ-ees and employee-benefit schemes throughout Niigata Prefecture.

To add might to its efforts to grapple with environmental issues, in April 2010, Daishi Bank proclaimed the Daishi Bank Group Environmental Policy. Guided by this policy, Daishi Bank and our affiliates will strive to raise all directors’

and employees’ awareness of environmental issues, support customers’ environmental efforts through opera-tions, and lead efforts to preserve the precious environment.

In March 2010, Daishi Bank established a rating system for the environmental activities of each enterprise. Called Daishi Environmental Ratings, the rating system provides the basis for Daishi Environmentally Rated Finance, a system

for reduced interest rates according to each company’s environmental ranking. We offer a wide selection of service plans compliant with the interest subsidy system of the Ministry of the Environment.

Daishi Bank provides Niigata Prefecture’s agricultural producers, fisheries, and food processors with vital sales promotion support through the Daishi Food Seminars, a series of trade exhibition and seminar events. To date these events have produced over 500 business negotiations, contributing to the food businesses that are a vital mainstay of the Niigata economy.  At the “Niigata Food and Ecology Exhibition and Semi-nar” in March 2010, a wide range of exhibitions and discus-

sions were held not only on the food industry but also on the environmental and new-energy industries, which are expected to enjoy solid growth in the near future. Daishi Bank is an active supporter of environ-mentally friendly businesses.

Daishi Bank dispatches employees to three cities in China: Shanghai, Dalian, and Hong Kong. These employees con-duct overseas support activities for Niigata-owned over-seas businesses, providing the latest local information and business know-how.  In FY 2009, Daishi Bank launched a service catering to the consulting needs of customers currently doing business

with or seeking to do business with Chinese companies. Part-nering with the JETRO Niigata Trade Information Center, Daishi Bank offers a China Business Seminar twice a year.

Fundamental Policies Toward Compliance Basic Approach

Governance Framework

Compliance System

Corporate Governance

Four basic principles

Compliance

■Divisions

1

Customer trust is a bank’s greatest asset. To ensure that we continue to earn and maintain the trust of our customers, we at Daishi Bank must improve the soundness of management and win the confidence of the community based on our corporate ethics. The cornerstone of this effort is compli-ance.

 At Daishi Bank, compliance is our top priority. Adhering to four basic principles, all directors and employees are work-ing every day to establish a management constitution that is firmly grounded in the spirit of compliance.

Daishi Bank aims to be a bank that satisfies all of its stake-holders, from customers to shareholders. On the financial front, we are bolstering the soundness of our asset portfolio and the profitability of our operations. We realize that strengthening and fulfilling our corporate governance

regime is vital for our management. At the same time, we are enhancing audition and monitoring of management, enforcing thorough and consistent compliance, and improv-ing transparency.

As of the end of March 2010, the Board of Directors consists of 10 directors. In addition to basic affairs relating to management and implementing important business decisions, the Board of Directors monitors the status of business management by each director (nine directors as of June 24, 2010, with the approval of the 199th general meeting of shareholders). For important affairs of business management based on basic policies decided by the Board of Directors management, conferences established under the Board of Directors are held in principle once a week.  Furthermore, to accelerate management decision-making and strengthen execution capability, Daishi Bank adopts a system of “operating directors.” Under this system, the Board of Directors elects a group of operating directors, each of whom is responsible for operations in their sector. In addition, a number of specialized commit-tees are established, including the Risk Management Com-mittee, the Asset Liability Management (ALM) Committee, and the Compliance Committee.  Daishi Bank also adopts a system of auditors. The Board of Corporate Auditors consists of two statutory auditors and three external auditors; the latter are chosen for their ability to offer advice and suggestions from a broad perspective, based on extensive knowledge and experience in profes-sional fields. The corporate auditors monitor and supervise the performance of the directors by attending board meet-ings and other important meetings as well as reviewing important documents.  The statutory auditors constantly monitor the status of Daishi Bank’s management, reporting and deliberating on their findings at the Board of Corporate Auditors, which

meets in principle once a month. Moreover, the Board of Corporate Auditors works closely with accounting auditors and Daishi Bank’s internal auditing organization, the Audit and Inspection Division, to monitor accounting auditors and ensure an efficient auditing process.  The Board of Corporate Auditors also submits a general audit report every year to the Board of Directors, who carefully deliberates on the opinions given before suggest-ing policies in response. In order to assist the professional duties of the auditors, a specialized staff member is assigned, supporting the auditing duties of the external auditors.  The Audit and Inspection Division is directly controlled by the Board of Directors with independence and neutrality from the target groups. They verify the appropriateness of compliance systems and various risk management systems. Every year, the Audit and Inspection Division conducts a comprehensive operational, system, and asset audit of all branches, head offices, centers, and Daishi Bank group companies, based on an audition policy and auditing plan approved by the Board of Directors.  The results of these audits are reported to the Board of Directors and are used to examine and follow up on improvements to matters indicated in internal audits. When a decision on legal matters is required, Daishi Bank calls on the third-party services of advisory legal attorneys. In addition, we have been accepting proposals related to the improvement of business operations through financial auditing from the accounting inspector KPMG Azusa & Co. at regular intervals.

Guided by our mission and adhering to our corporate ethics, we are establishing a thor-ough compliance framework through the development and execution of a practical com-pliance program.

2In operations, all directors and employees understand both the letter and spirit of the code of ethics regulated by the Japanese Bankers Association. The directors and employees of Daishi Bank work together to apply the code of this charter with common principles of con-duct.

3Through training and awareness-raising exercises, we build and instill a strong ethical consciousness and compliance-oriented mindset in our employees. We also work hard to produce a rigorous system for the verification of bank processes, strengthening measures to prevent violations of the law and other problems.

4We appropriately verify, evaluate, and report the status of compliance and of the imple-mentation of our compliance program. We make every effort to discover issues early and solve them promptly, with effective measures for correction of problems and prevention of their recurrence.

The Compliance Committee, whose activities are linked closely with everyday operations, meets in principle once a month to discuss important issues and the status of efforts on compliance. The Compliance Office, established within the Manage-ment Administration Division, plans compliance measures, provides valuable support to each division, and offers guidance on compliance issues to each branch.

■ Training and EducationThe Compliance Manual is a set of standards distributed to all directors and employees. This manual is used for joint training exercises and compliance seminars within each branch and office. Through development of an e-learning service and other training activities, we are broadening and deepening employee awareness of compliance issues.

■Main Divisions and BranchesEvery main branch manager and office manager serves as the compliance officer for that branch or office, and each assistant manager is responsible for checking on legal issues. Moreover, each branch has its own Compliance Committee, which examines conditions and implements measures to prevent compliance problems from arising, discover any problems at an early stage, and prevent any problems from recurring.

Risk Management

Systems for operational continuity

Risk Management Framework

■Market Risk Management

■Credit Risk Management

Risk Management

The advance of financial deregulation and globalization, coupled with rapid progress in the IT sphere, has signifi-cantly broadened the scope of products and services that banks can handle. Each time financial institutions widen their circle of operations, however, the risks they confront grow more varied and complex.

To support a sound management base for its operations, and to win the confidence of its customers, Daishi Bank is strengthening its risk-management framework. As ever, Daishi Bank recognizes the critical importance of assess-ing. Through auditing of this process, profits corresponding to the risk are stably guaranteed, and the planning of the appropriate distribution of management resources is accomplished as a basic policy of risk management.

Organizationally, under this basic policy, Daishi Bank assigns specific jurisdiction over responses to each type of risk to specific sectors, while establishing a Management Administration Division that understands and manages risk comprehensively, cutting across organizational boundaries.

The Audit and Inspection Division, which is separated from the sectors it audits, conducts rigorous audits of the general sweep of bank operations, testing the appropriateness and effectiveness of Daishi Bank’s internal-control provisions.

Daishi Bank has instituted a number of committees to oversee risk management. The Risk Management Commit-tee supervises risk management and advances organiza-tional restructuring for the entire bank. The ALM Committee measures and analyzes risk, with the aim of controlling risk and securing stable revenues, and the Compliance Com-mittee pursues business management that thoroughly complies with laws and regulations. These committees work in concert to address and resolve a wide range of risk-related issues.

Under the risk-management system described above, Daishi Bank maintains sound control of its assets and conducts effective risk allocation, ensuring that assets are invested prudently for the effective management of risk capital.

Credit risk is the risk that a company or individual to whom a bank has lent money and who may fail to repay some or all of the principal and interest owed, usually due to bank-ruptcy or other deterioration of financial circumstances, resulting in a loss incurred by the bank.

Daishi Bank implements effective operation/management of credit risks by adhering to our credit risk policy estab-lished based on credit risk management.

The Credit Supervision Division and Management Admin-istration Division, which have general control over credit risk management, implement regulations to manage credit risk and plan/execute activities to analyze, evaluate and improve them.

Completely autonomous from the business promotion section, the Loan Examination Division strictly inspects finances and properly deals with problem loans as well as ensures the assets in regards to business improvement

support activities relating to business deals for the entire bank.

To foster strict and accurate credit examination, autono-mous assessment of lending is carried out at two levels, with local branches and the Loan Examination Division each conducting separate investigations. In addition, auditing by the Audit and Inspection Division ensures the accuracy and appropriateness of credit examination and autonomous assessment.

Daishi Bank is currently working to strengthen and enhance its credit risk management functions by quantify-ing credit risk* and setting credit risk limits, etc. that suit our capital adequacy.

Market risk is the risk that assets held by a bank may fall in value due to fluctuations in market factors, causing a bank to incur a loss. Such market factors include domestic and foreign interest rates, valuations on securities and foreign exchange rates.

Each fiscal year Daishi Bank establishes an asset liability management (ALM) policy to determine the quanti-tative level of risk that we deem acceptable and ensure stable earnings. Based on this policy, we set risk-taking and loss limits in the market sector. In addition, an ALM Commit-tee meets once a month, in principle to discuss important issues in market risk management. If the market sections encounter a serious incident, this framework ensures that the details are reported to management immediately.

The handling of market transactions is separated

between market administration (the Treasury and Capital Markets Division), office administration (the Securities and International Division) and integrated risk administration (the Management Administration Division). Daishi Bank is also constructing a framework of checks and balances to ensure that the auditing section can operate with maximum efficacy.

Daishi Bank is constantly working to strengthen and enhance its management of market risks. For example, we conduct daily VaR* measurements to ensure accurate assessment and analysis of risks associated with financial market fluctuations.

* VaR: Value at RiskA risk-management technique in which statistical methods are used to calculate the maximum loss that can occur within a given period.

*Quantification of credit risk The expression of the degree of risk in quantitative form, based on statistical treatment of data from various rating services.

■Liquidity Risk ManagementLiquidity risk is the combination of two related types of risk: fundraising risk and market liquidity risk. Fundraising risk is the risk that the financial institution may be unable to secure the necessary funds, or may unavoidably be obliged to do so at unusually high rates of interest. Market liquidity risk is the risk that the only market transactions available may be those with disadvantageous terms and prices.

Daishi Bank stipulates its methods of risk management in the operation guidance for liquidity risk management, which are used to control risk according to circumstances. Fundraising risk in particular is a fundamental risk for finan-cial institutions. Daishi Bank recognizes that the essence of

effective liquidity risk management lies in supporting a sound management constitution and maintaining the confi-dence of customers and financial markets. The Securities and International Division handles cash flow issues by carefully managing cash positions, while the Management Administration Division, our liquidity risk management arm, conducts monitoring to maintain a smooth cash flow.

In addition, we stipulate a set of countermeasures, which spell out how to respond in the face of unexpected events, while taking steps to implement a framework to maintain a stable cash flow.

■Operational Risk Management SystemOperational risk is the risk that Daishi Bank’s internal admin-istrative procedures, actions of directors or employees, or systems operations may be inappropriate, or that loss may occur due to external factors. At Daishi Bank, this risk consists of 1) administrative risk, 2) systems risk, and 3) other operational risk. The other operational risk is divided into seven subcategories and managed: 1) information-security risk, 2) legal risk, 3) human-error risk, 4) tangible-asset risk, 5) outsourcing risk, 6) reputational risk, and 7) other risk

To manage operational risk appropriately, the sector with jurisdiction for each risk collects and analyzes data on

losses that represent the realization of the risks in question, and the sector conducts examination and evaluation of the status of controls designed to minimize said risks. This assessment of Daishi Bank’s own risk-control status is called control self-assessment (CSA). Key risk indicators (KRIs) are gathered and analyzed to assess latent risks.

Tasked with managing operational risk, the Management Administration Division oversees the status of management of these risks and reports regularly to senior management via the Risk Management Committee. Through this system, appropriate responses are framed to minimize risk.

In the event of disasters or other unforeseen events, Daishi Bank must be able to continue to function with minimal disruption to customers and to bank management. To prepare for such contingencies, Daishi Bank is building a robust system to maintain continuity of operations. One aspect of these preparations is the formation of the Basic Policy on Operational Continuity.

The Basic Policy on Operational Continuity stipulates a system of responses that vary according to the nature of the disruptive event. For example, a Disaster Response Division is established to implement prompt recovery and continuity of operations in the event of a major natural disas-ter or system interruption.

Risk Management Framework

■Market Risk Management

■Credit Risk Management

Risk Management

The advance of financial deregulation and globalization, coupled with rapid progress in the IT sphere, has signifi-cantly broadened the scope of products and services that banks can handle. Each time financial institutions widen their circle of operations, however, the risks they confront grow more varied and complex.

To support a sound management base for its operations, and to win the confidence of its customers, Daishi Bank is strengthening its risk-management framework. As ever, Daishi Bank recognizes the critical importance of assess-ing. Through auditing of this process, profits corresponding to the risk are stably guaranteed, and the planning of the appropriate distribution of management resources is accomplished as a basic policy of risk management.

Organizationally, under this basic policy, Daishi Bank assigns specific jurisdiction over responses to each type of risk to specific sectors, while establishing a Management Administration Division that understands and manages risk comprehensively, cutting across organizational boundaries.

The Audit and Inspection Division, which is separated from the sectors it audits, conducts rigorous audits of the general sweep of bank operations, testing the appropriateness and effectiveness of Daishi Bank’s internal-control provisions.

Daishi Bank has instituted a number of committees to oversee risk management. The Risk Management Commit-tee supervises risk management and advances organiza-tional restructuring for the entire bank. The ALM Committee measures and analyzes risk, with the aim of controlling risk and securing stable revenues, and the Compliance Com-mittee pursues business management that thoroughly complies with laws and regulations. These committees work in concert to address and resolve a wide range of risk-related issues.

Under the risk-management system described above, Daishi Bank maintains sound control of its assets and conducts effective risk allocation, ensuring that assets are invested prudently for the effective management of risk capital.

Credit risk is the risk that a company or individual to whom a bank has lent money and who may fail to repay some or all of the principal and interest owed, usually due to bank-ruptcy or other deterioration of financial circumstances, resulting in a loss incurred by the bank.

Daishi Bank implements effective operation/management of credit risks by adhering to our credit risk policy estab-lished based on credit risk management.

The Credit Supervision Division and Management Admin-istration Division, which have general control over credit risk management, implement regulations to manage credit risk and plan/execute activities to analyze, evaluate and improve them.

Completely autonomous from the business promotion section, the Loan Examination Division strictly inspects finances and properly deals with problem loans as well as ensures the assets in regards to business improvement

support activities relating to business deals for the entire bank.

To foster strict and accurate credit examination, autono-mous assessment of lending is carried out at two levels, with local branches and the Loan Examination Division each conducting separate investigations. In addition, auditing by the Audit and Inspection Division ensures the accuracy and appropriateness of credit examination and autonomous assessment.

Daishi Bank is currently working to strengthen and enhance its credit risk management functions by quantify-ing credit risk* and setting credit risk limits, etc. that suit our capital adequacy.

Market risk is the risk that assets held by a bank may fall in value due to fluctuations in market factors, causing a bank to incur a loss. Such market factors include domestic and foreign interest rates, valuations on securities and foreign exchange rates.

Each fiscal year Daishi Bank establishes an asset liability management (ALM) policy to determine the quanti-tative level of risk that we deem acceptable and ensure stable earnings. Based on this policy, we set risk-taking and loss limits in the market sector. In addition, an ALM Commit-tee meets once a month, in principle to discuss important issues in market risk management. If the market sections encounter a serious incident, this framework ensures that the details are reported to management immediately.

The handling of market transactions is separated

between market administration (the Treasury and Capital Markets Division), office administration (the Securities and International Division) and integrated risk administration (the Management Administration Division). Daishi Bank is also constructing a framework of checks and balances to ensure that the auditing section can operate with maximum efficacy.

Daishi Bank is constantly working to strengthen and enhance its management of market risks. For example, we conduct daily VaR* measurements to ensure accurate assessment and analysis of risks associated with financial market fluctuations.

* VaR: Value at RiskA risk-management technique in which statistical methods are used to calculate the maximum loss that can occur within a given period.

*Quantification of credit risk The expression of the degree of risk in quantitative form, based on statistical treatment of data from various rating services.

■Liquidity Risk ManagementLiquidity risk is the combination of two related types of risk: fundraising risk and market liquidity risk. Fundraising risk is the risk that the financial institution may be unable to secure the necessary funds, or may unavoidably be obliged to do so at unusually high rates of interest. Market liquidity risk is the risk that the only market transactions available may be those with disadvantageous terms and prices.

Daishi Bank stipulates its methods of risk management in the operation guidance for liquidity risk management, which are used to control risk according to circumstances. Fundraising risk in particular is a fundamental risk for finan-cial institutions. Daishi Bank recognizes that the essence of

effective liquidity risk management lies in supporting a sound management constitution and maintaining the confi-dence of customers and financial markets. The Securities and International Division handles cash flow issues by carefully managing cash positions, while the Management Administration Division, our liquidity risk management arm, conducts monitoring to maintain a smooth cash flow.

In addition, we stipulate a set of countermeasures, which spell out how to respond in the face of unexpected events, while taking steps to implement a framework to maintain a stable cash flow.

■Operational Risk Management SystemOperational risk is the risk that Daishi Bank’s internal admin-istrative procedures, actions of directors or employees, or systems operations may be inappropriate, or that loss may occur due to external factors. At Daishi Bank, this risk consists of 1) administrative risk, 2) systems risk, and 3) other operational risk. The other operational risk is divided into seven subcategories and managed: 1) information-security risk, 2) legal risk, 3) human-error risk, 4) tangible-asset risk, 5) outsourcing risk, 6) reputational risk, and 7) other risk

To manage operational risk appropriately, the sector with jurisdiction for each risk collects and analyzes data on

losses that represent the realization of the risks in question, and the sector conducts examination and evaluation of the status of controls designed to minimize said risks. This assessment of Daishi Bank’s own risk-control status is called control self-assessment (CSA). Key risk indicators (KRIs) are gathered and analyzed to assess latent risks.

Tasked with managing operational risk, the Management Administration Division oversees the status of management of these risks and reports regularly to senior management via the Risk Management Committee. Through this system, appropriate responses are framed to minimize risk.

In the event of disasters or other unforeseen events, Daishi Bank must be able to continue to function with minimal disruption to customers and to bank management. To prepare for such contingencies, Daishi Bank is building a robust system to maintain continuity of operations. One aspect of these preparations is the formation of the Basic Policy on Operational Continuity.

The Basic Policy on Operational Continuity stipulates a system of responses that vary according to the nature of the disruptive event. For example, a Disaster Response Division is established to implement prompt recovery and continuity of operations in the event of a major natural disas-ter or system interruption.

1716 THE DAISHI BANK THE DAISHI BANK 2010 ANNUAL REPORT 2010 ANNUAL REPORT

Notes To Consolidated Financial StatementsMarch 31, 2009 and 2010

1. Basis of presenting consolidated financial statements

The Daishi Bank, Ltd., (the “Bank”) and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries maintain their official accounting records in Japanese yen in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Japanese Corporation Law, the Bank Law of Japan, and the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law, and in conformity with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”). Certain accounting principles and practices generally accepted in Japan are different from International Accounting Standards and standards in other countries in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements are intended for use by those who are informed about Japanese accounting principles and practices.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restructured and translated into English with some expanded descriptions and the inclusion of consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity from the consolidated financial statements of the Bank which were 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. Some supple-mentary 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.

Amounts less than one million yen have been omitted. As a result, the totals in Japanese yen shown in the financial statements do not necessarily agree with the sum of the individual amounts.

The translations of the Japanese yen amounts into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of the readers, using the prevailing exchange rate on March 31, 2010, which was ¥93.04 to U.S. $1. These convenience 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.

2. Significant accounting policies ConsolidationThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Bank and all of its significant subsidiaries (together, the“Group”). The number of consolidated subsidiaries as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 was 10 and 11, respectively. The Daishi Jimu Shuchu Co.,Ltd. was liquidated. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Cash and cash equivalents In preparing the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and due from THE BANK OF JAPAN are considered to be cash and cash equivalents.

Trading account securities The Bank’s trading account securities are stated at fair market value, and unrealized gains or losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

Realized gains or losses on sale of such securities are primarily computed using the moving-average cost.

SecuritiesAccording to the Japanese Accounting Standards for Financial Instruments, securities are classified as follows based on their intention of holdings: (a) securities held for trading purposes (hereafter, "trading securities"), (b) debt securities intended to be held to maturity (hereafter, "held-to-maturity debt securi-ties"), (c) equity securities issued by subsidiaries and affiliated companies, and (d) for all other securities that are not classified in any of the above categories (hereafter, "available-for-sale securities")  

Trading securities are stated at fair market value. Gains and losses realized on disposal and unrealized gains and losses from market value fluctuations are recognized as gains or losses in the period of the change.

Held-to-maturity debt securities are stated at amortized cost.Equity securities issued by subsidiaries and affiliated

companies which are not consolidated or accounted for using the equity method are stated at moving-average cost.

Available-for-sale securities with available fair values are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and unrealized losses on these securities are reported, net of applicable income taxes, as a separate component of net assets. Realized gains and losses on sale of such securities are computed using moving-average cost.

Other securities whose fair value is judged to be difficult to determine are stated at moving-average cost.

If there is significant decline in the market value of held-to-maturity debt securities, equity securities issued by unconsoli-dated subsidiaries and affiliated companies, and available-for-sale securities, such securities are stated at fair value and the difference between fair value and the carrying amount is recognized as loss in the period of the decline. If the fair value of equity securities issued by unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliated companies not on the equity method is not readily available, such securities should be written down to net asset value with a corresponding charge in the income statement in the event that net asset value declines significantly. In these cases, such fair value or the net asset value will be the carrying amount of the securities at the beginning of the next year.

DerivativesDerivative financial instruments are stated at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized as gains or losses unless derivative financial instruments are used for hedging purposes.

Property, plant and equipment (excluding lease assets)Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumu-lated depreciation except for certain revalued land used for business operations as explained in Note 15.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed using the declining-balance method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of respective assets. The estimated useful lives of major items are as follows: Buildings; 10 – 50 years Others; 2 – 20 years

Intangible assets (excluding lease assets)Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line depreciation.

Software for internal use is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life (principally 5 years).

Lease assetsAmong “tangible fixed assets” and “intangible assets”, lease assets relating to finance leases which do not transfer ownership to lessees are amortized on the straight-line method over the lease term. For residual value, residual value guarantees decided upon based on lease contracts are shown at the aforementioned residual value guarantee amount, others are shown as zero.

Foreign currency translation Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date.

Allowance for loan losses For loans to insolvent customers who are undergoing bankruptcy or other collection proceeding or in a similar financial condition, allowance for loan losses is provided in the full amount of such loans, excluding the portion that is estimated to be recoverable due to available security interests or guarantees.

For the unsecured and unguaranteed portions of loans to customers not presently in the above circumstances but for which there is a high probability of so becoming, the allowance for loan losses is provided for estimated unrecoverable amounts determined after evaluating the customer’s overall financial conditions.

For loans to customers who are not yet legally and formally bankrupt but who are substantially bankrupt or customers whose credit terms are rescheduled or reconditioned and exceed the certain threshold, the Discounted Cash Flow Method is applied if cash flows on repayment of principals and collection of interest of the loan can be reasonably estimated.

The Discounted Cash Flow Method (the DCF Method) requires that the difference between the cash flows discounted by the original interest rate and the book value of the loan be provided as a reserve for possible loan losses. During the medium middle-term reform plan, the same method was used for reserves.

For other loans, allowance for loan losses are provided based on the rate of the Bank’s actual loan losses in the past.

All branches and other business related sections evaluate all loans in accordance with the self-assessment rule, and their evaluations are audited by the asset audit section, which is independent from branches and other business related sections, and the evaluations are revised as required based on the audits.

Also, consolidated subsidiaries provide for an allowance for loan losses. It consists of the estimated uncollectible amount with respect to identified doubtful accounts and an amount calculated mainly using the rate of actual loan losses in the past.

Loans to insolvent customers who are undergoing bankruptcy or other collection proceedings or in a similar

financial condition are stated net of estimated uncollectible amount equal to the full amount of such loans less the portion that is estimated to be recoverable due to available security interests or guarantees.

Such estimated uncollectible amounts directly deducted from receivables amounted to ¥26,571 million and ¥24,320 million ($261,400 thousand) at March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Provision for retirement benefitsThe Bank provides two types of post-employment benefit plans, funded lump-sum payment plans and funded non-contributory pension plans, under which all eligible employees are entitled to benefits based on the level of wages and salaries at the time of retirement or termination, length of service, and certain other factors.

Also, consolidated subsidiaries provide lump-sum payment plans and one of them provides cash balance plans.

The Bank contributed certain marketable equity securities to an employee retirement benefit trust.

Liabilities and expenses for employees’ retirement benefits are determined based on the amounts actuarially calculated using certain assumptions. The Bank and its consolidated subsidiaries provide reserve for employees’ severance and retirement benefits based on the estimated amounts of projected benefit obligation at the balance sheet date and the fair value of the plan assets at that date.

Prior service costs are recognized in profit and loss using the straight-line method over 10 years commencing with the year incurred.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in expenses using the straight-line method over 10 years commencing with the following period.

Allowance for investment lossAllowance for investment losses is provided for the estimated losses on investments based on the evaluation of the financial conditions of the investees.

Provision for directors’ retirement benefitsThe reserve for directors’ retirement benefits is appropriated in the amount of the portion of expected total retirement-benefit payment that is recognized as generated in the consolidated fiscal year under review, to provide for payment of retirement benefits to directors.

Provision for reimbursement of depositsReserves against refund of inactive bank accounts are prepared against repayment losses that may be incurred when the holders of inactive bank accounts with suspended liability appropriation demand repayment. These reserves are prepared in the amount of the estimated future repayment loss based on past repayment results.

Provision for directors’ bonuses Provision for directors’ bonuses is appropriated as the total amount of bonuses expected to be paid to directors within the current consolidated fiscal year.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed using the declining-balance method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of respective assets. The estimated useful lives of major items are as follows: Buildings; 10 – 50 years Others; 2 – 20 years

Intangible assets (excluding lease assets)Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line depreciation.

Software for internal use is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life (principally 5 years).

Lease assetsAmong “tangible fixed assets” and “intangible assets”, lease assets relating to finance leases which do not transfer ownership to lessees are amortized on the straight-line method over the lease term. For residual value, residual value guarantees decided upon based on lease contracts are shown at the aforementioned residual value guarantee amount, others are shown as zero.

Foreign currency translation Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date.

Allowance for loan losses For loans to insolvent customers who are undergoing bankruptcy or other collection proceeding or in a similar financial condition, allowance for loan losses is provided in the full amount of such loans, excluding the portion that is estimated to be recoverable due to available security interests or guarantees.

For the unsecured and unguaranteed portions of loans to customers not presently in the above circumstances but for which there is a high probability of so becoming, the allowance for loan losses is provided for estimated unrecoverable amounts determined after evaluating the customer’s overall financial conditions.

For loans to customers who are not yet legally and formally bankrupt but who are substantially bankrupt or customers whose credit terms are rescheduled or reconditioned and exceed the certain threshold, the Discounted Cash Flow Method is applied if cash flows on repayment of principals and collection of interest of the loan can be reasonably estimated.

The Discounted Cash Flow Method (the DCF Method) requires that the difference between the cash flows discounted by the original interest rate and the book value of the loan be provided as a reserve for possible loan losses. During the medium middle-term reform plan, the same method was used for reserves.

For other loans, allowance for loan losses are provided based on the rate of the Bank’s actual loan losses in the past.

All branches and other business related sections evaluate all loans in accordance with the self-assessment rule, and their evaluations are audited by the asset audit section, which is independent from branches and other business related sections, and the evaluations are revised as required based on the audits.

Also, consolidated subsidiaries provide for an allowance for loan losses. It consists of the estimated uncollectible amount with respect to identified doubtful accounts and an amount calculated mainly using the rate of actual loan losses in the past.

Loans to insolvent customers who are undergoing bankruptcy or other collection proceedings or in a similar

financial condition are stated net of estimated uncollectible amount equal to the full amount of such loans less the portion that is estimated to be recoverable due to available security interests or guarantees.

Such estimated uncollectible amounts directly deducted from receivables amounted to ¥26,571 million and ¥24,320 million ($261,400 thousand) at March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Provision for retirement benefitsThe Bank provides two types of post-employment benefit plans, funded lump-sum payment plans and funded non-contributory pension plans, under which all eligible employees are entitled to benefits based on the level of wages and salaries at the time of retirement or termination, length of service, and certain other factors.

Also, consolidated subsidiaries provide lump-sum payment plans and one of them provides cash balance plans.

The Bank contributed certain marketable equity securities to an employee retirement benefit trust.

Liabilities and expenses for employees’ retirement benefits are determined based on the amounts actuarially calculated using certain assumptions. The Bank and its consolidated subsidiaries provide reserve for employees’ severance and retirement benefits based on the estimated amounts of projected benefit obligation at the balance sheet date and the fair value of the plan assets at that date.

Prior service costs are recognized in profit and loss using the straight-line method over 10 years commencing with the year incurred.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in expenses using the straight-line method over 10 years commencing with the following period.

Allowance for investment lossAllowance for investment losses is provided for the estimated losses on investments based on the evaluation of the financial conditions of the investees.

Provision for directors’ retirement benefitsThe reserve for directors’ retirement benefits is appropriated in the amount of the portion of expected total retirement-benefit payment that is recognized as generated in the consolidated fiscal year under review, to provide for payment of retirement benefits to directors.

Provision for reimbursement of depositsReserves against refund of inactive bank accounts are prepared against repayment losses that may be incurred when the holders of inactive bank accounts with suspended liability appropriation demand repayment. These reserves are prepared in the amount of the estimated future repayment loss based on past repayment results.

Provision for directors’ bonuses Provision for directors’ bonuses is appropriated as the total amount of bonuses expected to be paid to directors within the current consolidated fiscal year.

Provision for contingent loss The reserve for contingent liabilities is a reserve for unexpected or incidental losses not covered by the other reserves. Losses expected to occur in the future are estimated, and the amount deemed necessary is appropriated.

Reserves under the special lawsReserves under the special laws are reserves for financial products transaction liabilities in securities business consoli-dated domestic subsidiaries, and in order to compensate for any losses incurred with respect to securities futures, etc., are appro-priated at an amount calculated based on the establishment of article 46, provision 5 of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law.

Accounting for certain lease transactions (Lessees)Among finance leases which do not transfer ownership to lessees for Daishi Bank and our subsidiaries as well as affiliates, etc., the standard accounting method is applied to those from consolidated fiscal year accounting beginning before April 1st, 2008 based on standard lease transactions.(Lessors)The standard accounting method is applied to finance leases which do not transfer ownership to lessees for lease business consolidated domestic subsidiaries, however finance leases which do not transfer ownership to lessees from consolidated fiscal year accounting beginning before April 1st, 2008 are appropriated at carrying values (after deducting accumulated depreciation) appropriate for fixed assets at the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year accounting for the first year of application for the following guidelines based on Item No.81 of Accounting Standards Implementation Guidelines for Lease Transactions (Corporate Accounting Standards Implementation Guidelines No.16, March 30, 2007) as the lease investment asset beginning-of-term carrying values, and equivalent interest amounts are distributed evenly according to the total amount for each term during the residual lease term.

Compared with the application of Item No.80 of the same implementation guidelines, the net income before tax and adjustments for the period was increased by ¥265 million.

Lease transaction revenue/expense appropriation standardsRevenue/expense appropriation standards concerning finance lease transactions depend on the appropriation method for proceeds and costs of sales at the time of lease charge acceptance.

Hedge accounting①Hedge accounting for interest rate riskAs for the hedge accounting method applied to hedging transactions for interest rate risk arising from financial assets and liabilities, the Bank applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in “the Treatment for Accounting and Auditing of Application of Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments in Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No.24). The Bank assesses the effectiveness of such hedge for offsetting changes in interest rate, by classifying the hedged items (such as deposits and loans) and the hedging instruments (such as interest rate swaps) by their maturity. The Bank assesses the effectiveness of such hedges for fixing cash flows

by verifying the correlation between the hedged items and the hedging instruments.

②Hedge accounting for exchange rate riskAs for the hedge accounting method applied to hedging transactions for exchange rate risk arising from foreign currency-denominated financial assets and liabilities, the Bank applies deferred hedge accounting stipulated in “the Treatment for Accounting and Auditing Concerning Accounting for Foreign Currency Transactions in Banking Industry” (JICPA Industry Audit Committee Report No.25).

The effectiveness of such hedge accounting is assessed by considering currency swap transactions, which are for the purpose of offsetting foreign exchange risks arising from foreign-currency-denominated financial assets and liabilities as hedge methods, and by verifying the existence of foreign currency-position of such hedging methods matching up to the foreign-currency-denominated assets and liabilities of the hedging objects.

Amounts per shareComputation of net income per share is based on the weighted-average number of capital shares outstanding during each year.

Cash dividends per share represent the actual amounts declared as applicable to the respective years.

Important item changes for standards for consolidated financial statements(Accounting standards relating to financial instruments)Beginning at the end of the current consolidated fiscal year, the “Accounting Standard for Financial Instruments” (ASBJ Statement No.10 2008.3.10) and “Implementation Guidance on Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (ASBJ Guidance No.19 2008.3.10) take effect.

Through this, in comparison with the previous methods securities increased by ¥18 million, deferred tax assets decreased by ¥7 million, the valuation difference on available-for-sale securities increased by ¥105 million, and the net income before tax and adjustments for the period increased by ¥154 million.

Effects on segment information are noted in the appropriate locations.Cash and cash equivalentsThe reconciliation of cash and due from banks in the consoli-dated balance sheets and cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statements of cash flows for 2009 and 2010 is as follows:

14. Long-lived AssetsThe Group recognized impairment losses for the years ended March 31, 2010 as follows:

The Bank policies for asset grouping are as follows. In principle, grouping is implemented at the smallest managerial accounting division level, individual branch offices. Grouping is also carried out at the asset level for assets scheduled for disposal and for inactive assets. The headquarters, operation centers, and welfare centers which are assets related to the entire Daishi Bank are treated as common assets.

The Bank also carries out grouping for consolidated subsid-iaries with impairment losses included using similar methods.

The recoverable value is calculated based on the higher amounts of the net selling price and the value in use. The net selling price is calculated, mainly, based on the real estate appraisal value. The value in use is calculated with 3.96% discounted from the future cash flow, with separate calculation methods for the above.

15. Accumulated depreciationAccumulated depreciation of Property, plant and equipment was ¥79,656 million as of March 31, 2009 and ¥79,131 million($850,515 thousand) as of March 31, 2010.
