(1)       In the normal course of its financing activities, the Bank pledges assets as collateral in accordance with
standard terms. Encumbered assets include assets used to cover short sales, obligations related to securities sold under
repurchase agreements and securities loaned, guarantees related to security-backed loans and borrowings, collateral related
to derivative financial instrument transactions, asset-backed securities, residential mortgage loans securitized and
transferred under the Canada Mortgage Bond program, assets held in consolidated trusts supporting the Bank's funding
activities and mortgage loans transferred under covered bond programs. 
 
(2)       Other encumbered assets include assets for which there are restrictions and therefore cannot be used for
collateral or funding purposes as well as assets used to cover short sales. 
 
(3)       Other unencumbered assets are assets that cannot be used for collateral or funding purposes in their current
form. This category includes assets that are potentially eligible as funding program collateral (for example, Canada
Mortgage and Housing Corporation insured mortgages that can be securitized into mortgage-backed securities under the
National Housing Act (Canada)). 
 
(4)       Certain amounts have been adjusted to reflect changes in accounting standards. See Note 2 to the unaudited
interim condensed consolidated financial statements. 
 
Funding Risk 
 
Funding risk is defined as the risk to the Bank's ongoing ability to raise sufficient funds to finance actual or proposed
business activities on an unsecured or secured basis at an acceptable price. The Bank maintains a good balance of its
funding through appropriate diversification of its unsecured funding vehicles, securitization programs and secured funding.
The Bank also diversifies its funding by currency, geography and maturity. The funding management priority is to achieve an
optimal balance between the deposit liabilities of the Bank's retail networks, commercial and corporate deposits, secured
funding and unsecured funding. This brings optimal stability to its funding and reduces vulnerability to unpredictable
events. 
 
Funding and liquidity levels remained sound and robust over the period and the Bank does not anticipate any event,
commitment or demand that will have a significant impact on its liquidity risk position. 
 
The Bank's balance sheet is well diversified and aligned with its funding strategy. The core banking activities are funded
entirely through personal and commercial deposits and through securitization programs. Wholesale funding is invested in
cash and securities. The table below presents the remaining contractual maturities of the Bank's wholesale funding. The
information has been presented in accordance with the categories recommended by the EDTF for comparison purposes with other
banks.

As part of a comprehensive liquidity management framework, the Bank regularly reviews its contracts that stipulate that
additional collateral could be required in the event of a downgrade of the Bank's credit rating. The Bank's liquidity
position management already incorporates additional collateral requirements in the event of a one-notch to three-notch
downgrade. The table below presents the additional collateral requirements in the event of a one-, two- or three-notch
credit rating downgrade.

Residual Contractual Maturities of Balance Sheet Items and Off-Balance-Sheet Commitments 
 
The following tables present balance sheet items and off-balance-sheet commitments by residual contractual maturity as at
July 31, 2014 with comparative figures as at October 31, 2013. The information gathered from this maturity analysis is a
component of liquidity and funding management. However, this maturity profile does not represent how the Bank manages its
interest rate risk nor its liquidity risk and funding needs. The Bank considers factors other than contractual maturity in
the assessment of liquid assets or in determining expected future cash flows. 
 
In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into various off-balance-sheet commitments. The credit instruments used
to meet the funding needs of its clients represent the maximum amount of additional credit the Bank could be obligated to
extend if the commitments were fully drawn. 
 
The Bank also has minimum future commitments under leases for premises as well as for other contracts, mainly contracts for
outsourced IT services. Most of the lease commitments are related to operating leases.
