STATEMENT ON RESULTS OF THE
2011 EBA EU-WIDE STRESS TEST
 
 
HSBC Holdings plc welcomes the publication of the stress test outcomes on European banks by the European Banking Authority ('EBA') today. HSBC's Core Tier 1 ('CT1') ratio under the modelled adverse scenario, which is based on the EBA's published capital definitions and prescribed approach, is 8.5%. This exceeds the current post-stress minimum CT1 capital requirement of 5% used in this exercise.
 
The EBA stress test methodology uses the HSBC balance sheet as at 31 December 2010, applying a baseline scenario and adverse scenario over 24 months from 1 January 2011.
 
HSBC reported a CT1 capital ratio of 10.5% at 31 December 2010. This equates to 10.5% at the same date under the EBA's specific definition of capital. The cumulative impact on operating profit, impairment in the banking book and losses in the trading book for the modelled stresses under the adverse scenario over the two years to 31 December 2012 are shown in the table below. HSBC's resulting CT1 capital ratio is calculated to be 8.5%.

The EBA adverse scenario stress test includes charges on trading and banking books to reflect deterioration of the economic environment and specifically of conditions in residential and commercial property, sovereign bond and securitised asset markets. The stress test has been carried out using a static balance sheet assumption as at December 2010. The stress test does not take into account future business strategies and management actions, including mitigation, and is not a forecast of HSBC's profits. The full summary of EBA stress test results, attached in the appendices to this announcement, provides further details of the impact of these scenarios on HSBC.
 
The EBA noted in its summary report dated 15 July 2011 that this stress testing exercise does not provide forecasts of expected outcomes but rather a 'what-if' analysis aimed at supporting the supervisory assessment of the adequacy of capital of European banks.
 
Iain Mackay, Group Finance Director, HSBC Holdings plc, said: "We welcome the publication of the EBA EU-wide stress test exercise. HSBC has an active, long-standing internal stress testing programme as a key element of its risk and capital management framework and is also subject to rigorous ongoing stress testing by the UK Financial Services Authority as part of its supervision of the Group. In each stress test, whether internal or external, HSBC has demonstrated that its capital position and resources are sufficient to meet its regulatory capital requirements. HSBC has a strong track record of capital generation and we will continue to actively manage our risk-weighted assets as part of our rigorous capital allocation process."
 
HSBC will announce its interim results for the six months to the end of June 2011 on 1 August 2011.

Notes
 
  (1)
The stress test was carried using the EBA common methodology, which includes a static balance sheet assumption and incorporates regulatory transitional floors, where binding (see http://www.eba.europa.eu/EU-wide-stress-testing/2011.aspx  for the details on the EBA methodology).
 
  (2)
All capital elements and ratios are presented in accordance with the EBA definition of Core Tier 1 capital set up for the purposes of the EU-wide stress test, and therefore may differ from the definitions used by national supervisory authorities and/or reported by institutions in public disclosures.
 
  (3)
Neither baseline scenario nor the adverse scenario and results of the stress test should in any way be construed as a bank's forecast or directly compared to bank's other published information.
 
  (4)
Full static balance sheet assumption excluding any mitigating management actions, mandatory restructuring or capital raisings post 31 December 2010 (all government support measures and capital raisings fully paid in before 31 December 2010 are included).
 
  (5)
Effects of capital raisings, government support and mandatory restructuring plans publicly announced and fully committed in period from 31 December 2010 to 30 April 2011, which are incorporated in the Core Tier 1 capital ratio reported as the outcome of the stress test.
 
  (6)
The supervisory recognised capital ratio computed on the basis of additional mitigating measures  presented in this section. The ratio is based primarily on the EBA definition, but may include other mitigating measures not recognised by the EBA methodology as having impacts in the Core Tier 1 capital, but which are considered by the national supervisory authorities as appropriate mitigating measures for the stressed conditions. Where applicable, such measures are explained in the additional announcements issued by banks/national supervisory authorities.

Notes and definitions
 
  (1)
The stress test was carried using the EBA common methodology, which includes a static balance sheet assumption (see http://www.eba.europa.eu/EU-wide-stress-testing/2011.aspx for the details on the EBA methodology).
 
  (2)
All capital elements and ratios are presented in accordance with the EBA definition of Core Tier 1 capital set up for the purposes of the EU-wide stress test, and therefore may differ from the definitions used by national supervisory authorities and/or reported by institutions in public disclosures.
 
  (3)
Neither baseline scenario nor the adverse scenario and results of the stress test should in any way be construed as a bank's forecast or directly compared to bank's other published information.
 
  (4)
Regulatory transitional floors are applied where binding. RWA for credit risk have been calculated in accordance with the EBA methodology assuming an additional floor imposed at a level of RWA, before regulatory transitional floors, for December 2010 for both IRB and STA portfolios.
 
  (5)
Banks are required to provide explanations of what "Other operating income" and "Other income" constitutes for.
 
Composition of "Other Operating Income":
 
Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss, net + Realised gains (losses) on fin. assets and l-iabilities not measured at fair value through profit and loss, net + Gains (losses) from hedge accounting, net +Gains (losses) on derecognition of assets other than held for sale +Net dividend income +Gains (losses) on non financial assets measured at fair value.
 
Composition of "Other income":
 
Income from Associates and Joint Ventures (excluding income from Insurance companies).
 
  (6)
If under the national legislation, the release of countercyclical provisions and/or other similar reserves is allowed, this figure for 2010 could be included either in rows "Impairments on financial assets in the banking book" or "Other income" for 2010, whereas under the EU-wide stress test methodology such release for 2011-2012 should be reported in Section D as other mitigating measures.
 
  (7)
Net profit after tax, the amount of retained earnings and amount distributed as dividends under the stress scenarios have been calculated using EBA assumptions. Net profit includes profit attributable to minority interests.
 
  (8)
Deferred tax assets as referred to in paragraph 69 of BCBS publication dated December 2010 : "Basel 3 - a global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems".
 
  (9)
Stock of provisions includes collective and specific provisions as well as countercyclical provisions, in the jurisdictions, where required by the national legislation.
 
  (10)
Provisions for non-defaulted exposures to sovereigns and financial institutions have been computed taking into account benchmark risk parameters (PDs and LGDs) provided by the EBA and referring to external credit ratings and assuming hypothetical scenario of rating agency downgrades of sovereigns.
 
  (11)
N/A.
 
  (12)
Coverage ratio = stock of provisions on defaulted assets / stock of defaulted assets expressed in EAD for the specific portfolio.
 
  (13)
Loss rate = total impairment flow (specific and collective impairment flow) for a year / total EAD for the specific portfolio (including defaulted and non-defaulted assets but excluding securitisation and counterparty credit risk exposures).
 
  (14)
All elements are be reported net of tax effects.
 
  (15)
The supervisory recognised capital ratio computed on the basis of additional mitigating measures presented in this section. The ratio is based primarily on the EBA definition, but may include other mitigating measures not recognised by the EBA methodology as having impacts in the Core Tier 1 capital, but which are considered by the national supervisory authorities as appropriate mitigating measures for the stressed conditions. Where applicable, such measures are explained in the additional announcements issued by banks/national supervisory authorities.

Notes and definitions
 
  (1)
EAD - Exposure at Default or exposure value in the meaning of the CRD.
 
  (2)
The EAD reported here are based on the methodologies and portfolio breakdowns used in the 2011 EU-wide stress test, and hence may differ from the EAD reported by banks in their Pillar 3 disclosures, which can vary based on national regulation. For example, this would affect breakdown of EAD for real estate exposures and SME exposures.
 
  (3)
Breakdown by country and macro area (e.g. Asia) when EAD >=5%. In any case coverage 100% of total EAD should be ensured (if exact mapping of some exposures to geographies is not possible, they should be allocated to the group "others").
 
  (4)
The allocation of countries and exposures to macro areas and emerging/non-emerging is according to the IMF WEO country groupings. See: http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2010/01/weodata/groups.htm
 
  (5)
Residential real estate property which is or will be occupied or let by the owner, or the beneficial owner in the case of personal investment companies, and commercial real estate property, that is, offices and other commercial premises, which are recognised as eligible collateral in the meaning of the CRD, with the following criteria, which need to be met:
 
 
(a)      the value of the property does not materially depend upon the credit quality of the obligor. This requirement does not preclude situations where purely macro economic factors affect both the value of the property and the performance of the borrower; and
 
 
(b)      the risk of the borrower does not materially depend upon the performance of the underlying property or project, but rather on the underlying capacity of the borrower to repay the debt from other sources. As such, repayment of the facility does not materially depend on any cash flow generated by the underlying property serving as collateral."

Notes and definitions
 
  (1)
The allocation of countries and exposures to macro areas and emerging/non-emerging is according to the IMF WEO country groupings.  
 
 
See: http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2010/01/weodata/groups.htm
 
  (2)
The exposures reported in this worksheet cover only exposures to central and local governments on immediate borrower basis, and do not include exposures to other counterparts with full or partial government guarantees.
 
  (3)
According to the EBA methodologies, for the trading book assets banks have been allowed to offset only cash short positions having the same maturities.

Notes
 
  (1)
The stress test was carried using the EBA common methodology, which includes a static balance sheet assumption and incorporates regulatory transitional floors, where binding (see http://www.eba.europa.eu/EU-wide-stress-testing/2011.aspx  for the details on the EBA methodology).
 
  (2)
All capital elements and ratios are presented in accordance with the EBA definition of Core Tier 1 capital set up for the purposes of the EU-wide stress test, and therefore may differ from the definitions used by national supervisory authorities and/or reported by institutions in public disclosures.
 
  (3)
Neither baseline scenario nor the adverse scenario and results of the stress test should in any way be construed as a bank's forecast or directly compared to bank's other published information.
 
 (4)
Full static balance sheet assumption excluding any mitigating management actions, mandatory restructuring or capital raisings post 31 December 2010 (all government support measures and capital raisings fully paid in before 31 December 2010 are included).
 
  (5)
Effects of capital raisings, government support and mandatory restructuring plans publicly announced and fully committed in period from 31 December 2010 to 30 April 2011, which are incorporated in the Core Tier 1 capital ratio reported as the outcome of the stress test.
 
  (6)
The supervisory recognised capital ratio computed on the basis of additional mitigating measures  presented in this section. The ratio is based primarily on the EBA definition, but may include other mitigating measures not recognised by the EBA methodology as having impacts in the Core Tier 1 capital, but which are considered by the national supervisory authorities as appropriate mitigating measures for the stressed conditions. Where applicable, such measures are explained in the additional announcements issued by banks/national supervisory authorities.

Notes and definitions
 
  (1)
The stress test was carried using the EBA common methodology, which includes a static balance sheet assumption (see http://www.eba.europa.eu/EU-wide-stress-testing/2011.aspx for the details on the EBA methodology).
 
  (2)
All capital elements and ratios are presented in accordance with the EBA definition of Core Tier 1 capital set up for the purposes of the EU-wide stress test, and therefore may differ from the definitions used by national supervisory authorities and/or reported by institutions in public disclosures.
 
  (3)
Neither baseline scenario nor the adverse scenario and results of the stress test should in any way be construed as a bank's forecast or directly compared to bank's other published information.
 
  (4)
Regulatory transitional floors are applied where binding. RWA for credit risk have been calculated in accordance with the EBA methodology assuming an additional floor imposed at a level of RWA, before regulatory transitional floors, for December 2010 for both IRB and STA portfolios.
 
  (5)
Banks are required to provide explanations of what "Other operating income" and "Other income" constitutes for.
 
Composition of "Other Operating Income":
 
Gains (losses) on financial assets and liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss, net + Realised gains (losses) on fin. assets and l-iabilities not measured at fair value through profit and loss, net + Gains (losses) from hedge accounting, net +Gains (losses) on derecognition of assets other than held for sale +Net dividend income +Gains (losses) on non financial assets measured at fair value.
 
Composition of "Other income":
 
Income from Associates and Joint Ventures (excluding income from Insurance companies).
 
  (6)
If under the national legislation, the release of countercyclical provisions and/or other similar reserves is allowed, this figure for 2010 could be included either in rows "Impairments on financial assets in the banking book" or "Other income" for 2010, whereas under the EU-wide stress test methodology such release for 2011-2012 should be reported in Section D as other mitigating measures.
 
  (7)
Net profit includes profit attributable to minority interests.
 
  (8)
Deferred tax assets as referred to in paragraph 69 of BCBS publication dated December 2010 : "Basel 3 - a global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems".
 
  (9)
Stock of provisions includes collective and specific provisions as well as countercyclical provisions, in the jurisdictions, where required by the national legislation.
 
  (10)
Provisions for non-defaulted exposures to sovereigns and financial institutions have been computed taking into account benchmark risk parameters (PDs and LGDs) provided by the EBA and referring to external credit ratings and assuming hypothetical scenario of rating agency downgrades of sovereigns.
 
  (11)
N/A.
 
  (12)
Coverage ratio = stock of provisions on defaulted assets / stock of defaulted assets expressed in EAD for the specific portfolio.
 
  (13)
Loss rate = total impairment flow (specific and collective impairment flow) for a year / total EAD for the specific portfolio (including defaulted and non-defaulted assets but excluding securitisation and counterparty credit risk exposures).
 
  (14)
All elements are be reported net of tax effects.
 
  (15)
The supervisory recognised capital ratio computed on the basis of additional mitigating measures presented in this section. The ratio is based primarily on the EBA definition, but may include other mitigating measures not recognised by the EBA methodology as having impacts in the Core Tier 1 capital, but which are considered by the national supervisory authorities as appropriate mitigating measures for the stressed conditions. Where applicable, such measures are explained in the additional announcements issued by banks/national supervisory authorities.

According to the Basel 3 framework specific rules apply for the treatment of these items under the Basel 3 framework, no full deduction is required for the computation of common equity.
 
  (3)
This item represents the impact in original own funds of valuation differences arising from the application of fair value measurement to certain financial instruments (AFS/FVO) and property assets after the application of prudential filters.

Notes and definitions
 
  (1)
EAD - Exposure at Default or exposure value in the meaning of the CRD.
 
  (2)
The EAD reported here are based on the methodologies and portfolio breakdowns used in the 2011 EU-wide stress test, and hence may differ from the EAD reported by banks in their Pillar 3 disclosures, which can vary based on national regulation. For example, this would affect breakdown of EAD for real estate exposures and SME exposures.
 
  (3)
Breakdown by country and macro area (e.g. Asia) when EAD >=5%. In any case coverage 100% of total EAD should be ensured (if exact mapping of some exposures to geographies is not possible, they should be allocated to the group "others").
 
  (4)
The allocation of countries and exposures to macro areas and emerging/non-emerging is according to the IMF WEO country groupings. See: http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2010/01/weodata/groups.htm
 
  (5)
Residential real estate property which is or will be occupied or let by the owner, or the beneficial owner in the case of personal investment companies, and commercial real estate property, that is, offices and other commercial premises, which are recognised as eligible collateral in the meaning of the CRD, with the following criteria, which need to be met:
 
 
(a)      the value of the property does not materially depend upon the credit quality of the obligor. This requirement does not preclude situations where purely macro economic factors affect both the value of the property and the performance of the borrower; and
 
 
(b)      the risk of the borrower does not materially depend upon the performance of the underlying property or project, but rather on the underlying capacity of the borrower to repay the debt from other sources. As such, repayment of the facility does not materially depend on any cash flow generated by the underlying property serving as collateral."

Notes and definitions
 
  (1)
The allocation of countries and exposures to macro areas and emerging/non-emerging is according to the IMF WEO country groupings.  
 
 
See: http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2010/01/weodata/groups.htm
 
  (2)
The exposures reported in this worksheet cover only exposures to central and local governments on immediate borrower basis, and do not include exposures to other counterparts with full or partial government guarantees.
 
  (3)
According to the EBA methodologies, for the trading book assets banks have been allowed to offset only cash short positions having the same maturities.
