Presentation of information

The assets of disposal groups are presented as a single line in the consolidated balance sheet as required by IFRS. The risk and balance sheet management disclosures include the balances and exposures of disposal groups.

General overview*

RBS's main risks are described in 'Risk and balance sheet management - Risk coverage' in the 2013 Annual Report and Accounts. The following table presents a summary of the key developments for each risk during 2014.

Risk type

2014 developments and summary

Capital adequacy risk

The capital position continued to improve with CET 1 ratio at 10.1 %, up from 8.6% at the year end reflecting continuing reductions in risk-weighted assets primarily in CIB and RCR, lower regulatory capital deductions relating to deferred tax assets and expected loss, and attributable profit.

Liquidity and funding risk

Liquidity metrics remained strong: the liquid portfolio of 138 billion covering short-term wholesale funding more than four times, LCR improving to 104%, NSFR at 111% and the stressed coverage ratio improved significantly to over 170%.

Credit risk

Balance sheet credit exposures after credit mitigation and enhancement, decreased by 7% to 333 billion and credit risk RWAs fell by 35 billion, 10%, reflecting risk reduction. Impairment provisions of 22 billion covered risk elements in lending of 34 billion by 66%. Favourable credit conditions resulted in impairment charges for the half year being significantly lower than in recent periods with net recoveries in RCR and CIB.

Market risk

Average trading VaR for the first half of 2014 was about a third of that in the first half of 2013, reflecting risk reduction and the effect of incorporating credit valuation and funding valuation adjustments into VaR models.

Country risk

Net balance sheet exposure to eurozone periphery countries was reduced by 1.5 billion, 4%, to 40.3 billion in the first half of the year. Total exposure to Russia was 2.1 billion: limits have been cut and credit restrictions introduced.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

General overview* (continued)

Risk type

2014 developments and summary

Conduct risk

Business models, strategies and products continued to be reviewed to ensure better customer outcomes. Synergies with other risk disciplines were also developed to enable the consistent identification, assessment and mitigation of conduct risks.

Pension risk

RBS concluded discussions with the Trustee of the RBS Group Pension Fund, agreeing the technical provisions basis and a schedule of contributions for the 2013 funding valuation. Additionally, stress tests were carried out under scenarios designed to meet PRA and European Banking Authority (EBA) requirements.

Operational risk

RBS's operational risk framework was further enhanced. The main focus remained on supporting improvements in risk management, specifically strengthened risk assessments through defining and implementing an end-to-end approach for the most material operational risks.

Regulatory risk

Regulatory risk remained a high priority and RBS continued to work through a number of legacy issues. RBS also implemented an increasing number of regulatory changes such as Basel III and Dodd Frank.

Reputational risk

A Reputational Risk Forum was created to identify issues involving material reputational risk. On 1 July 2014, a new Head of Reputational Risk was appointed whose responsibilities include building a new framework to manage reputational risk.

Business risk

RBS moved towards simplifying and functionalising its organisation and management structure to help reduce risk. There was also a focus on strengthening its stress testing capability. In particular, it is anticipated that finalisation of the stress testing programmes of the Bank of England and the EBA will enhance management and measurement of business risk.

Strategic risk

RBS continued to develop its framework for the identification and management of the most material risks to its strategic plan. A new "Top Risk" approach assesses both the likelihood and impact of significant threats, and develops agreed mitigations. These are reviewed by the Board at least on a quarterly basis.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Capital and leverage ratios* (continued)

Key points

CET1 ratio improved by 150 basis points in the first half of the year, of which 70 basis points was in the second quarter reflecting attributable profit after charging the initial DAS dividend (320 million), reduction in RWAs and lower regulatory deductions for deferred tax assets and expected loss.



RWAs declined by 37 billion with 22 billion in the second quarter mainly in CIB reflecting continued risk reduction and in RCR due to run-off and disposals.



Attributable profit as well as lower leverage exposure in CIB resulted in a 30 basis point improvement in the estimated BCBS leverage ratio in the first half of the year.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Capital resources (continued)

Notes:*

General:

In accordance with the PRA's Policy Statement PS7/2013 issued in December 2013 on the implementation of CRD IV, all regulatory adjustments and deductions to CET1 have been applied in full (without transition relief) with the exception of unrealised gains on AFS securities which will be included from 2015.


CRD IV and Basel III impose a minimum CET1 ratio of 4.5%. Further, CET1 requirements will be imposed through buffers in the CRD. There are three buffers that will affect the Group: the capital conservation buffer set at 2.5% of RWAs; the counter-cyclical capital buffer (up to 2.5% of RWAs), which will be calculated as the weighted average of the countercyclical capital buffer rates applied in the countries where the Group has relevant credit exposures; and the highest of Global-Systemically Important Institution (G-SII), Other-Systemically Important Institution (O-SII) or Systemic Risk Buffers set by the supervisory authorities. The Group has been provisionally allocated a G-SII buffer of 1.5%. The regulatory target capital requirements will be phased in through CRR, and are expected to apply in full from 1 January 2019. Until then, using national discretion the PRA can apply a top-up. As set out in the PRA's Supervisory Statement SS3/13, the Group and other major UK banks and building societies are required to maintain a CET1 ratio of 7%, after taking into account certain adjustments set by the PRA.


From 1 January 2015, the Group must meet at least 56% of its Pillar 2A capital requirement with CET1 capital and the balance with Additional Tier 1 and/or Tier 2 capital. The Pillar 2A capital requirement is the additional capital that the Group must hold, in addition to meeting its Pillar 1 requirements in order to comply with the PRA's overall financial adequacy rule.


Measures in relation to CRR end-point basis, including RWAs, are based on the current interpretation, expectations, and understanding, of the CRR requirements, as well as further regulatory clarity and implementation guidance from the UK and EU authorities. The actual CRR end-point impact may differ when the final technical standards are interpreted and adopted.

Capital base:

(1)

Own funds are based on shareholders' equity.

(2)

Includes the nominal value of B shares (0.5 billion) on the assumption that RBS will be privatised in the future and that they will count as permanent equity in some form by the end of 2017.

(3)

The prudential valuation adjustment (PVA), arising from the application of the prudent valuation requirements to all assets measured at fair value, has been included in full. The PVA has been included in impairment provisions in the determination of the deduction from expected losses.

(4)

Where the deductions from AT1 capital exceed AT1 capital, the excess is deducted from CET1 capital. The excess of AT1 deductions over AT1 capital in year one of transition is due to the application of the current rules to the transitional amounts.

(5)

Insignificant investments in equities of other financial entities (net): long cash equity positions are considered to have matched maturity with synthetic short positions if the long position is held for hedging purposes and sufficient liquidity exists in the relevant market. All the trades are managed and monitored together within the equities business.

(6)

Based on our current interpretations of the Commission Delegated Regulation issued in December 2013 on credit risk adjustments, the Group's standardised latent provision has been reclassified to specific provision and is not included in Tier 2 capital.

Risk-weighted assets:

(1)

Current securitisation positions are shown as risk-weighted at 1,250%.

(2)

RWA uplifts include the impact of credit valuation adjustments (CVA) and asset valuation correlation (AVC) on banks and central counterparties.

(3)

RWAs reflect implementation of the full internal model method suite, and include methodology changes that took effect immediately on CRR implementation.

(4)

Non-financial counterparties and sovereigns that meet the eligibility criteria under CRR are exempt from the credit valuation adjustments volatility charges.

(5)

The CRR final text includes a reduction in the risk-weight relating to small and medium-sized enterprises.

Notes:

(1)

The BCBS proposal permits some limited netting for margin received against the replacement cost of derivatives, an additional gross securities financing transaction (SFT) calculation with more restrictive netting, but possible future benefit for trades against qualifying central counterparties. The notional amounts relating to sold credit protection are included in the exposure measure, offset by longer dated bought protection on the same contracts.

(2)

Potential future exposure (PFE) on derivatives: the regulatory add-on which is calculated by assigning percentages based on the type and residual maturity of the derivatives to nominal amounts or underlying values of derivative contracts. The element of PFE relating to credit derivatives sold is removed under the BCBS 270 proposal and replaced with the credit derivative notionals on protection sold per note (1).

(3)

Regulatory deductions: to ensure consistency between the leverage ratio numerator and the denominator, regulatory items that are deducted from capital are also deducted from the leverage exposure measure.

(4)

Undrawn commitments represent regulatory add-ons relating to off-balance sheet undrawn commitments based on the credit conversion factors of 10%, 20%, 50% and 100% being applied as applicable to the commitments. Refer to the following page for further analysis.

Notes:

(1)

Changes in credit quality metrics of customers and counterparties such as probability of default and loss given default.

(2)

Technical adjustments and calibration of models.

(3)

Modelled refers to advanced internal ratings based (AIRB) for non-counterparty credit risk, internal model method (IMM) for counterparty credit risk, value-at-risk (VaR) and related models for market risk.

Key points

Business movements include exposure reductions in RCR and CIB.



Methodology changes include the transfer of 11.9 billion of RWAs from non-counterparty credit risk to market risk relating to trading book securitisations.



Operational risk is calculated on a three year average of income and the business and other movement reflects the annual recalculation.



Non-modelled or standardised (STD) credit risk RWAs principally comprised CFG (56 billion); Private Banking (10 billion); derivative and repo transactions undertaken by RBSSI, the broker-dealer; and certain securitisation exposures.



Increase in RWA density of bank exposures reflected the impact of CVA and AVC and those on structured entities related to RWA treatment, both relating to the implementation of CRD IV.

Credit risk: RWA density

Refer to the 2013 Pillar 3 Report for details on terminology. For the majority of credit risk, RBS used the internal ratings based (IRB) approach for calculating RWAs. The standardised approach (STD) is used for certain portfolios. RWAs at 30 June 2014 are under current rules and 31 December 2013 are on a Basel 2.5 basis.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Liquidity and funding risk

Liquidity and funding risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its financial obligations, including financing wholesale maturities or customer deposit withdrawals, as they fall due. The risk arises through the maturity transformation role that banks play and is dependent on company specific factors such as: maturity profile, composition of sources and uses of funding, the quality and size of the liquidity portfolio as well as broader factors, such as wholesale market conditions and depositor and investor behaviour. For a description of the liquidity and funding risk framework, governance and basis of preparation refer to the Risk and balance sheet management section of the 2013 Annual Report and Accounts.

Overview

The liquidity position remains strong: the liquidity portfolio of 138 billion at 30 June 2014 covered short-term wholesale funding (STWF) four times.



Liquid assets decreased by 8 billion mainly driven by a targeted decrease in financial institution deposits in Q1, partly offset by additional low-cost secondary liquidity. Average liquid asset balances were down in Q2 compared with Q1 reflecting proactive management of excess liquidity whilst retaining a prudent coverage of potential outflows.



The loan:deposit ratio increased by 200 basis points to 96% from 94% at 31 December 2013 reflecting continued focus on reducing excess funding.



STWF increased marginally to 33.6 billion mainly reflecting the upcoming redemption of trust preferred securities and large term debt deals falling into the less than 1 year to maturity bucket.

Notes:

(1)

RBS's liquidity risk appetite is based on the Individual Liquidity Adequacy Assessment (ILAA) which is measured by reference to the liquidity portfolio as a percentage of stressed liquidity outflows under the worst of three severe stress scenarios; a market-wide stress, an idiosyncratic stress and a combination of both. Liquidity risk adequacy is determined by the surplus of liquid assets over three month stressed outflows under the worst case stress. This assessment is performed in accordance with PRA guidance.

(2)

In January 2013, the BCBS published its final guidance for calculating LCR which is currently expected to come into effect from January 2015 on a phased basis. Pending the finalisation of the LCR rules within the EU, RBS monitors the LCR based on its own interpretations of current guidance available for EU LCR reporting. Therefore, the reported LCR will change over time with regulatory developments. Due to differences in interpretation of the rules RBS's ratio may not be comparable with those of other financial institutions.

(3)

The NSFR for all periods has been calculated using RBS's current interpretations of the existing rules relating to various BCBS guidance to date. Ratios for 31 March 2014 and 31 December 2013 have been revised accordingly. BCBS is expected to issue revised guidance on the NSFR towards the end of 2014 or early 2015.

Liquidity portfolio

The table below shows RBS's liquidity portfolio by product, liquidity value and carrying value. Liquidity value is lower than carrying value as it is stated after discounts applied by the Bank of England and other central banks to instruments, within the secondary liquidity portfolio, eligible for discounting.

Notes:

(1)

The PRA regulated UK Defined Liquidity Group (UK DLG) comprises the RBS's five licensed deposit taking UK banks: The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, National Westminster Bank Plc, Ulster Bank Limited, Coutts & Company and Adam & Company. In addition, certain of the Group's significant operating subsidiaries - RBS N.V., Citizens Financial Group Inc. and Ulster Bank Ireland Limited - hold liquidity portfolios of liquid assets that comply with local regulations that may differ from PRA rules.

(2)

Includes assets eligible for discounting at the Bank of England and other central banks.



Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Funding risk

The composition of RBS's balance sheet is a function of the broad array of product offerings and diverse markets served by its core divisions. The structural composition of the balance sheet is augmented as needed through active management of both asset and liability portfolios. The objective of these activities is to optimise the liquidity profile, while ensuring adequate coverage of all cash requirements under extreme stress conditions.

For the notes to this table refer to the following page.



Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Balance sheet encumbrance(continued)

Notes:

(1)

Includes cash, coin and nostro balance held with the Bank of England as collateral against notes in circulation.

(2)

Encumbered assets are those that have been pledged to provide security for the liability shown above and are therefore not available to secure funding or to meet other collateral needs.

(3)

Unencumbered readily realisable assets are those assets on the balance sheet that can be readily used to meet funding or collateral requirements and comprise:


(a) Liquidity portfolio: cash balances at central banks, high quality debt securities and loans that have been pre-positioned with central banks. In addition, the liquidity portfolio includes securitisations of own assets which has reduced over the years and has been replaced by loans.


(b) Other readily realisable assets: including assets that have been enabled for use with central banks; and unencumbered debt securities.

(4)

Unencumbered other realisable assets are those assets on the balance sheet that are available for funding and collateral purposes but are not readily realisable in their current form. These assets include loans that could be prepositioned with central banks but have not been subject to internal and external documentation review and diligence work.

(5)

Assets that cannot be encumbered include:


(a) derivatives, reverse repurchase agreements and trading related settlement balances.


(b) non-financial assets such as intangibles, prepayments and deferred tax.


(c) assets in disposal groups.


(d) loans that cannot be pre-positioned with central banks based on criteria set by the central banks, primary US, including those relating to date of origination and level of documentation.


(e) non-recourse invoice financing balances and certain shipping loans whose terms and structure prohibit their use as collateral.

(6)

In accordance with market practice RBS employs securities recognised on the balance sheet, and securities received under reverse repo transactions as collateral for repos. Secured derivative liabilities now reflect net positions that are collateralised by balance sheet assets.


Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss due to the failure of a customer or counterparty to meet its obligation to settle outstanding amounts. For a description of the bank's credit risk framework, governance, policies and methodologies refer to the Risk and balance sheet management - Credit risk section - of the 2013 Annual Report and Accounts.

Notes:

(1)

Relates to offset arrangements that comply with IFRS criteria and transactions cleared through and novated to central clearing houses, primarily London Clearing House and US Government Securities Clearing Corporation.

(2)

The carrying value on the balance sheet represents the exposure to credit risk by class of financial instrument.

(3)

Balance sheet offset reflects the amounts by which the bank's credit risk is reduced through master netting and cash management pooling arrangements. Derivative master netting agreements include cash pledged with counterparties in respect of net derivative liability positions and are included in lending in the table above.

(4)

Includes cash collateral pledged by counterparties based on daily mark-to-market movements of net derivative positions with the counterparty.

(5)

Securities collateral represent the fair value of securities received from counterparties, mainly relating to reverse repo transactions as part of netting arrangements.

(6)

Property valuations are capped at the loan value and reflect the application of haircuts in line with regulatory rules to indexed valuations. Commercial collateral includes ships and plant and equipment collateral.

(7)

Credit enhancement comprises credit derivatives (bought protection) and guarantees and reflects notional amounts less fair value and notional amounts respectively.

Key points

The major components of net exposures are cash and balances at central banks, unsecured commercial, corporate and bank loans, debt securities and short-term settlement balances.

Of the 112 billion of debt securities, 34 billion are asset-backed but underlying collateral is not reflected above as the bank only has access to cashflows from the collateral.

Asset quality

The table below analyses the bank's financial assets excluding debt securities by internal asset quality (AQ) ratings. Debt securities are analysed by external ratings and are therefore excluded from the table below and are set out on page 33.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Financial assets: Asset quality (continued)

Key points

Overall asset quality improved slightly with AQ1-AQ4 (investment grade of BBB- or above) increasing from 75% at 31 December 2013 to 77% at 30 June 2014 reflecting improving credit conditions and disposals and run-down in RCR.



Cash and balances at central banks decreased 14.0 billion reflecting the management of surplus liquidity.



Asset quality trends improved with loans to banks and customers rated AQ1 (equivalent to AA or above) up by 3 billion. Recalibration of retail and business banking models using updated data trends from the last three years resulted in a significant upward shift between AQ5 and below to AQ4.



Gross derivatives decreased 5% to 274.9 billion with the proportion AQ1-AQ4 stable at 96%.



Past due loans decreased 1.1 billion or 11% driven mainly by CFG (1.0 billion) and a decrease in Ulster Bank (0.3 billion) reflecting increased work with customers in arrears.



Loan impairment provisions decreased 2.8 billion mainly in relation to RCR disposals and run-off (2.0 billion).

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Loans and related credit metrics (continued)

Key points

Gross loans and advances to customers decreased by 8.8 billion or 2% to 408.9 billion; excluding the impact of foreign exchange the movement was 6.3 billion mainly driven by disposals and run off in RCR. REIL fell by 13% to 34.1 billion. Provision coverage strengthened to 66% compared with 64% at the end of 2013 and REIL were 8.3% of gross customer loans compared with 9.4% as at 31 December 2013. Asset quality continued to improve across the board.



Impairment charge for the first half of 2014 was significantly lower at 271 million compared with the prior year including 180 million of latent provision releases primarily reflecting more favourable credit conditions.



30% of the 56.9 billion property loans were REIL, with a provision coverage of 66%. 20% of property loans carry a provision. Refer to page 41 for an analysis of commercial real estate in RCR.



Strong mortgage lending in UK PBB of 2.5 billion was offset by a fall in unsecured lending of 1.1 billion. Impairment charges and credit metrics continued to show improving trends with REIL as a percentage of gross loans falling to 3.3% from 3.6% at 31 December 2013 reflecting improved asset quality and lower default trends. Write-offs of 0.4 billion reflected the continued write-off of legacy balances.



Ulster Bank loans, excluding the impact of foreign exchange and transfers to RCR, were 0.5 billion lower than at the year end mainly as customers deleveraged. Impairment charges were significantly lower at 57 million in the first half of 2014 reflecting the transfer of underperforming assets to RCR and the ongoing reduction in mortgage arrears.



Lending in CPB remained broadly stable with REIL, excluding the impact of the transfers to RCR, decreasing by 0.7 billion with write-offs and repayments outpacing new provisions.



CFG loans showed growth of 1.2 billion excluding the impact of foreign exchange with impairment charges of 102 million, higher than the prior year due to the transfer in Q1 of serviced-by-others, home equity and other portfolios in Non-Core. Credit metrics remained broadly stable.

Key points

HFT: Holdings of UK and US government bonds, and ABS decreased, reflecting sales and continued focus on balance sheet reduction and capital management in CIB. The increase in other government bonds primarily reflected higher seasonal market activity in bond auctions compared with the year end, partially offset by disposals. The increase in short positions in UK and US government bonds was driven by market conditions and customer demand, while that in other government reflected hedging of higher long positions and customer demand.

AFS: Government securities decreased by 4.0 billion. The decreases in UK, US and other government bonds reflected net disposals as gains were realised, as well as transfers of UK government bonds to HTM in Treasury. Holdings in bank issuances fell by 0.5 billion due to maturities and disposals.

AFS gross unrealised gains and losses: The UK and US government decreases in unrealised gains reflect exposure reductions. The increases in other government reflect market movements, and increases in banks and other financial institutions reflect maturities, disposals and market movements.

Notes:

(1)

Includes exchange traded contracts of 2,749 billion, (31 December 2013 - 2,298 billion) principally interest rate. Trades are margined daily hence carrying values were insignificant: assets - 72 million (31 December 2013 - 69 million) and liabilities - 265 million (31 December 2013 - 299 million).

(2)

Interest rate notional includes 17,606 billion (31 December 2013 - 22,563 billion) in respect of contracts with central clearing counterparties to the extent related assets and liabilities are offset.

Key points

Interest rate contracts: notionals balances were 6.5 trillion lower due to increased participation in trade compression cycles during the first half of 2014, following subdued activity by Tri Optima in 2013. This also resulted in reduced amounts of trades cleared through central clearing counterparties (5 trillion reduction). The fair value increased due to downward shifts in major yield curves due to volatility in emerging markets at the beginning of the year followed by the European Central Bank's decision to introduce measures to aid economic recovery in June 2014. This was partially offset by decrease due to the strengthening of GBP against the US Dollar and Euro and participation in tear ups.



Foreign exchange contracts: decrease in fair value reflects the strengthening of GBP against the US dollar and euro, and the strengthening of Japanese yen against the US dollar, as the portfolio is materially positioned long US dollar and short Japanese yen at 30 June 2014.



Credit derivatives fair values decreased reflecting tightening credit spreads and compression cycles.



Uncollateralised derivatives predominantly represent those with large corporates with whom RBS may have netting arrangements in place, but whose business models do not support collateral posting capacity and sovereigns and supranational entities with one way collateral agreements in their favour. In addition there are some uncollateralised derivative positions with banks in certain jurisdictions for example Russia, China, Malaysia which are either uncollateralised or the collateral agreements are not deemed legally enforceable and have therefore been reported as uncollateralised.

Notes:

(1)

The data reflected changes in methodology highlighted in the 2013 Report and Accounts, and also the removal in April of the reporting threshold for forbearance data capture.

(2)

Provision coverage reflects impairment provision as a percentage of non performing loan.

(3)

The total exceeds 100% as an individual case can involve more than one type of arrangement.

(4)

Principally formal standstill agreements and release of security.

Key points

Forbearance completed on loans decreased during the first half of 2014 compared with the second half of 2013. This was in line both with improving market conditions and the RCR disposal strategy.



Forbearance continued to be granted in sectors that have experienced financial stress in recent years. The property sector remained the greatest contributor to the forborne portfolio, while there was a marked fall in the transport sector during the period. Some 70% of completed forbearance in the half year related to RCR loans, of which 60% were originated by Ulster Bank. Of the forbearance granted on non-performing loans, 65% related to loans originated by Ulster Bank.



Appendix 1 Capital and risk management (continued)

Problem debt management (continued)

Key points (continued)

Provisions for the non-performing loans disclosed above are individually assessed and therefore not directly comparable across periods. Provision coverage remained stable in H1.



At 30 June 2014 loans totalling 5.9 billion (31 December 2013 - 9.4 billion) had been granted credit approval for forbearance but had not yet been formally documented and were not being managed in accordance with the approved forbearance strategy. These loans are referred to as "in process" and are not included in the tables above, but 86% were non-performing (31 December 2013 - 84%) with an associated provision coverage of 54% (31 December 2013 - 44%). The principal types of forbearance offered were consistent with the completed forbearance population. The amount of in-process forbearance fell materially in line with the completion of forbearance during H1 and with disposals in RCR, which were not offset by new in-process cases.

Retail forbearance

The table below shows the loans for which forbearance was agreed during H1 2014 split between performing and non-performing by segment.

Problem debt management: Retail forbearance (continued)

Key points

UK PBB

The flow of new forbearance, 341 million in the second quarter of 2014, continued on a downward trend compared with the average of 409 million per quarter in the preceding four quarters. The flow for H1 2014 was 728 million.



The 24 month rolling stock of forbearance (where it was provided in the previous 24 months) fell by 13% to 1.7 billion at 30 June 2014 from 2.0 billion at 31 December 2013.



5.2% of total mortgage assets (5.3 billion) were subject to a forbearance arrangement from January 2008. This represented a decrease of 1.9% from 31 December 2013 (5.4 billion).



Approximately 85% of forbearance loans (31 December 2013 - 84%) were up-to-date with payments compared with approximately 98% of assets not subject to forbearance activity.



The majority (96%) of UK PBB forbearance was permanent in nature (term extensions, capitalisation of arrears, historical conversions to interest only). Temporary forbearance comprises payment concessions, such as reduced or deferred payments, with arrangements typically agreed for a period between three and six months.



The most frequently occurring forbearance types were term extensions (44% of forbearance loans at 30 June 2014), interest only conversions (30%) and capitalisations of arrears (16%). Conversions to interest only have only been permitted on a very exceptional basis since the fourth quarter of 2012 and have not been permitted for customers in financial difficulty since 2009.



The impairment provision cover on forbearance mortgages remained significantly higher than that on assets not subject to forbearance.

Ulster Bank

At 30 June 2014, 19.3% (3.5 billion)of Ulster Bank's mortgage loans were subject to forbearance arrangements, an increase from 14.6% (2.8 billion) at 31 December 2013. This reflected Ulster Bank'sstrategy of seekingtohelp customersfacing financial difficulties.

The increase in forbearance stock from 31 December 2013 to 30 June 2014 is attributable to customers entering forbearance for the first time (48%), customers re-entering forbearance (33%) and methodology refinements primarily relating to exit criteria (19%). The number of customers approaching Ulster Bank for assistance for the first time fell in Q2 2014 compared with Q4 2013.

There was continued increase in the proportion of longer-term forbearance solutions granted by Ulster Bank. As a percentage of the total, 55% of forbearance loans were subject to a longer term arrangement at 30 June 2014 (31 December 2013 - 41%). Capitalisations represented 28% (December 2013 - 17%), term extensions 11% (31 December 2013 - 11%) and interest rate discounts 16% (31 December 2013 - 13%) of the total forbearance portfolio at 30 June 2014. Interest rate discounts are offered for periods of up to eight years and incorporate a payment concession based on the customer's ability to pay.

The remaining forbearance loans were temporary concessions accounting for45% of the total forborne population, (31 December 2013 -59%).Interest only arrangements decreased during 2014 to 11% of forbearance loans at 30 June 2014 (31 December 2013 - 18%). Payment concessions (excluding interest rate discounts) represented the remaining34% (31 December 2013 - 41%).

The proportion of forbearance arrangements that were less than 90 days in arrears increased from 72% (31 December 2013) to 75% (30 June 2014).

(2)

ROI: Republic of Ireland; NI: Northern Ireland; RoW: Rest of World.

Key points

In line with the bank's strategy, overall gross lending exposure to commercial real estate fell by 3.4 billion, or 6% during the first half of 2014. Most of the decrease occurred in RCR exposure originated by Ulster Bank and CIB and was due to repayments, asset sales and write-offs.



The RCR portfolio totalled 18.3 billion, representing 37% of the bank's portfolio at 30 June 2014. Geographically, 54% of the portfolio was held in Ireland, 31% in the UK, and 14% in Western Europe.



Following disposals in the RCR portfolio which were concentrated in Ireland and western Europe (mainly in Germany), the commercial real estate portfolio was more focused on the UK market which represented 61% of the CRE portfolio (31 December 2013 - 58%). Approximately 45% of the UK portfolio was held in London and the south east of England at 30 June 2014 (31 December 2013 - 47%). The overall mix of sub-sector and investments and development remained broadly unchanged.A significant increase in new business inUK residential development during the first half of 2014 to support new housing construction wasoffsetby repayments of maturing loans, in addition to timing issues with recently agreed loans expected to be drawn asconstruction progressed.

Notes:

(1)

Total portfolio average LTV is quoted net of loans with minimal security given that the anticipated recovery rate is less than 10%. Provisions are marked against these loans where required to reflect the relevant asset quality and recovery profile.

(2)

Other non-performing loans of 2.2 billion (31 December 2013 - 2.3 billion) were subject to standard provisioning policies. Other performing loans of 6.2 billion (31 December 2013 - 5.4 billion) included general corporate loans, typically unsecured, to commercial real estate companies, and major UK house builders in addition to facilities supported by guarantees. The credit quality of these exposures was consistent with that of the performing portfolio overall.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Key loan portfolios: Commercial real estate* (continued)

Key points

The average LTV for the performing book improved from 65% to 60% during the last six months. The performing book in the UK had a slightly better LTV at 56%. The reductions in the higher LTV buckets occurred mainly in the RCR book originated by Ulster Bank and CIB, reflecting reductions through repayments, asset sales and write-offs. The reductions were also reflected in the greater than 150% LTV bucket, occurring mainly in Ireland and Western Europe. RCR-Ulster Bank accounted for the growth in minimal security which was at the final stage of a reduction strategy - these are fully provided for.



Interest payable on outstanding performing investment property secured loans was covered 1.4x and 2.9x within RCR and RBS excluding RCR, respectively.



The proportion of the portfolio managed within the bank's standard credit processes increased from 47% at 31 December 2013 to 54% at 30 June 2014, while the proportion of the portfolio in AQ10 decreased from 22% to 18% during the period.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Key loan portfolios: Residential mortgages* (continued)

Key points

UK PBB

The UK PBB mortgage portfolio was 101.8 billion at 30 June 2014. This showed an increase of 2.5% from 31 December 2013. The portfolio included 10.0 billion (31 December 2013 - 9.1 billion) of residential buy-to-let lending.



At 30 June 2014, approximately 51% of the portfolio consisted of fixed rate mortgages. Mortgages featuring a combination of fixed and variable rates made up 4% of the portfolio. The remainder were variable rate mortgages (including those on managed rates). The interest only proportion of the total portfolio was 24%. A further 7% of mortgages were on a combination of interest only plus capital and interest repayments.



Based on the Halifax Price Index at March 2014, the portfolio average indexed LTV by volume was 53.4% (31 December 2013 - 54.1%) and 61.0% by weighted value of debt outstanding (31 December 2013 - 62.0%). The ratio of total outstanding balances to total indexed property valuations was 44.5% (31 December 2013 - 45.1%).



Gross new mortgage lending amounted to 9.8 billion in H1 2014 and included 873 million of lending with an LTV of greater than 90% under the government-guaranteed Help To Buy scheme. The new mortgage business average LTV by volume was 68.2% compared to 62.7% at 31 December 2013, including the effect of the Help-to-Buy scheme. The average LTV calculated by weighted value was 70.8% (31 December 2013 - 66.6%).



All new mortgage business was subject to a comprehensive assessment. This included: i) an affordability test which featured a stressed interest rate that is higher than the customer pay rate; ii) loan to income ratio caps; iii) credit scoring; iv) a maximum loan-to-value of 90% with the exception of the government-backed Help-To-Buy mortgages (from the fourth quarter of 2013), New Buy and My New Home products where lending of up to 95% is provided; and v) a range of policy rules that restricted the availability of credit to borrowers with higher risk characteristics, for example those exhibiting a high level of indebtedness or adverse payment behaviour on previous borrowings.



The arrears rate (defined as more than three payments in arrears, excluding repossessions and shortfalls post property sale), fell to 1.1% (31 December 2013 - 1.3%). The number of properties repossessed in H1 2014 was 657 compared with 796 in H2 2013. Arrears rates remained sensitive to economic developments and the interest rate environment.



The impairment charge for mortgage loans was 5 million in H1 2014 compared with 26 million in H1 2013 and 5 million in H2 2013. The decline reflected stable default rates and one-off reductions in loss rates as valuations improved on properties held as security on defaulted debt.

Ulster Bank

Ulster Bank's residential mortgage portfolio was 18.1 billion at 30 June 2014, with 88% held in the Republic of Ireland and 12% in Northern Ireland. At constant exchange rates, the portfolio decreased 1.4 % from 31 December 2013 (19.0 billion) as a result of amortisations exceeding the value of new business in the period. The portfolio included 2.1 billion (12%) of residential buy-to-let loans.



Approximately 66% of the portfolio consisted of tracker rate loans, 23% variable rate loans and 11% fixed rate loans. Interest only represented the remaining 8% of the portfolio.

Key points (continued)

Ulster Bank(continued)

The portfolio average indexed LTV fell 4% during H1 2014 to 104% (31 December 2013 - 108%) reflecting positive house price index trends over the previous 12 months.



The average individual LTV on new originations was 70% in 2014 (31 December 2013 - 73%).



The arrears rate (defined as more than three payments in arrears, excluding repossessions and shortfalls after property sale), fell to 15.9% (31 December 2013 - 17.0%). The number of properties repossessed in H1 2014 was 169 compared with 262 for the full year of 2013. Arrears rates remained sensitive to economic developments.



The impairment charge for mortgage loans for H1 was 36 million for H1 2014, compared with 91 million at H1 2013.

CFG

CFG'sreal estate portfolio consisted of 6.4 billion (31 December 2013 - 5.9 billion) of residential mortgages (1% in second lien position) and 12.5 billion (31 December 2013 - 13.5 billion) of home equity loans and lines (first and second liens). Home equityloans and lines included 44% in first lien position. CFG continued to focus on its 'footprint states' of New England, Mid Atlantic and Mid West regions. At 30June 2014, 82% of the portfoliowas within footprint (31 December 2013 -84%).



Theserviced-by-others (SBO) book decreased from 1.4 billion at 31 December 2013 to 1.3 billion at 30June 2014. The arrears rate of the SBO portfolioremained stable at 1.5% during the period. Thereduction in the charge-off ratefrom 4.4% annualisedduring the fourth quarter of 2013to 2.3% during the second quarter of 2014 was driven by better than expected recoveries.



The weighted average LTV of the portfoliowas broadly stable during the period. The weighted average LTV of the portfolio, excluding theSBO portfolio, was59% (31 December 2013 - 64%).

Key points

The bank continued to reduce its exposure to interest only mortgages in H1. UK PBB ceased offering interest only mortgages to residential owner occupied customers with effect from 1 December 2012. Interest only repayment terms remain an option for buy-to-let mortgages.



Ulster Bank withdrew interest only as a standard mortgage offering for new lending in the Republic of Ireland in 2010 and in Northern Ireland in 2012.Interest only mortgages are now granted on a very limited basis to high net worth customers or those granted forbearance.



CFG offers its customers interest only mortgages and conventional HELOC which enter an amortising repayment period after the interest only period.



CPB offers interest only mortgages to its high net worth customers.

Based on its historical analyses of customers' behaviour, the bank recognises impairment provisions in respect of loans in its interest only portfolios (PBB - two years; CFG - one year) that are approaching their contractual maturity.These impairment provisions are reassessed as new trends and data become available.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Key loan portfolios: Interest only retail loans*(continued)

UK PBB

UK PBB's interest only mortgages require full principal repayment (a 'bullet' payment) at the time of maturity. Typically such loans have remaining terms of between 14 and 19 years. Customers are reminded of the need to have an adequate repayment vehicle in place during the mortgage term.



Of the bullet loans that matured in the six months to 31 December 2013, 63% had been fully repaid by 30 June 2014. The unpaid balance totalled 48 million, of which 96% of loans continued to meet agreed payment arrangements (including balances with a term extension agreed on either a capital and interest or interest only basis). Of the 48 million unpaid balance, 66% of the loans had an indexed LTV of 70% or less with 10% above 90%. Customers may be offered an extension to the term of an interest only mortgage or a conversion of such a mortgage to a capital and interest mortgage, subject to affordability and characteristics such as their income and ultimate repayment vehicle. The majority of term extensions in UK PBB are classified as forbearance and subject to the associated higher provision cover.

Ulster Bank

Ulster Bank's interest only mortgages require full principal repayment (a 'bullet' payment) at the time of maturity; or payment of both capital and interest from the end of the interest only period - typically seven years - so that customers meet their contractual repayment obligations. Contact strategies are in place for appropriate customers to remind them of the need to repay the principal at the end of the mortgage term.



Of the bullet mortgages that matured in the six months to 31 December 2013 (2.3 million), 36% had fully repaid by 30 June 2014 leaving residual balances of 1.5 million, 80% of which were meeting the terms of a revised repayment schedule. Of the amortising loans that matured in the six months to 31 December 2013 (109 million), 64% were either fully repaid or meeting the terms of a revised repayment schedule.

CFG

CFG had a closed book of interest only HELOC loans at 30 June 2014 of 0.3 billion at 30 June 2014, for which repayment of principal is due at maturity. It also had an interest only portfolio comprising loans that convert to amortising after an interest only period that is typically 10 years (10.0 billion at 30 June 2014 of which 9.1 billion were HELOCs). The majority of the bullet loans are due to mature between 2014 and 2015.



Of the bullet loans that matured in the six months to 31 December 2013, 74% had fully been refinanced or repaid by 30 June 2014 with residual balances of 22 million. 65% (of 22 million) of which were up-to-date with their payments. For those loans that convert to amortising, the typical uplift in payments was 169% (average uplift calculated at 139 per month).

RBS uses a range of measures for credit risk exposures. The internal measure used is credit risk assets. The balance sheet related credit risk analyses on pages 23 to 50 supplement this material. Credit risk assets (CRA) consist of lending, counterparty exposure and contingent obligations. Refer to page 230 of the 2013 Annual Report and Accounts for a full description.

Key points

There was an overall reduction of 4% in CRA. This was driven by falls in exposure to sovereigns (11.6 billion), property (5.2 billion) and other FIs (4 billion).



CIB CRAs fell 4%, driven by a reduction in exposure to the sovereigns and other FI sectors.



UK PBB CRA increased by 1.4 billion reflecting a 2.5 billion increase in mortgages offset by decreasing unsecured lending.



CFG CRAs increased by 6%. This was driven by the transfer of personal exposure previously managed by the Non-Core division and an increase in exposure to the sovereign sector.



The RCR portfolio included 21.4 billion of property-related CRAs, 4.3 billion in the transport sector, 2.6 billion to retail & leisure and 2.7 billion to other FIs. Geographically, 43% of the portfolio was located in Western Europe (excluding the UK), 40% in the UK, 10% in Central and Eastern Europe and the Middle East and Africa, and 7% in the rest of the world. Refer to the RCR section for further information.

Key points

Market conditions and the development of the bank's strategy had a significant impact on the composition of its portfolios during H1 2014, there was:


An 11.6 billion decrease in exposures to sovereign counterparties, driven by a decrease in RBS's deposits with central banks;


A 5.2 billion fall in exposures to the property sector; and


A 4.0 billion decline in exposures to other financial institutions.

The sovereign portfolio comprised exposures to central governments, central banks and sub-sovereigns such as local authorities, primarily in the bank's key markets in the UK, Western Europe and the US. Exposure predominantly comprised cash balances placed with central banks such as the Bank of England, the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank. Consequently, the asset quality of this portfolio remained high with 92% assigned an internal rating in the AQ1 asset quality band. Exposure to sovereigns fluctuates according to the bank's liquidity requirements and cash positions, which determine the level of cash placed with central banks.



Exposure to the property sector totalled 71.4 billion at 30 June 2014, the majority of which related to commercial real estate. The remainder comprised lending to housing associations (12%), construction companies (10%), and building material groups (3%), which remained stable during the period. See the commercial real estate section for further details.



The banking sector was one of the largest in the RBS portfolio with exposure totalling 44.6 billion. Exposures were well diversified geographically, largely collateralised, and tightly controlled through the combination of a single name concentration framework and a suite of credit policies specifically tailored to ensure compliance with sector and country limits. The increase in exposure during H1 2014 was primarily due to increased activity with counterparties located in Western Europe. This was offset by falls in exposure to counterparties in the Asia & Pacific region.

Exposure to other financial institutions was made up of exposures to a range of financial companies, the largest of which were funds (24%) securitisation vehicles (22%) and financial intermediaries (13%) including broker dealers and central counterparties (CCPs). The fall in exposure took place across a number of areas, and was caused by idiosyncratic factors and market developments.



Exposure to the transport sector included asset-backed exposure to ocean-going vessels. A 1.3 billion fall in exposure was achieved during the period due to disposals, run-off and foreign exchange movements. Defaulted assets (AQ10) in the shipping sector represented 9% of the total exposure to this sector (31 December 2013 - 9%).

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Credit risk assets*: Asset quality(continued)

Key points

Changes in asset quality of credit risk exposures in H1 2014 reflected the changes in composition of the portfolio, market conditions and the run-off of RCR assets.



The decrease in the AQ1 band reflected the decrease in exposure to sovereigns. The increase in the AQ4 band was caused by the recalibration of models for UK personal mortgages to reflect continued improvements in observed default rates.



The proportion of exposure in the AQ10 band fell to 6.8% of the total portfolio. This was driven by RCR's accelerated disposal strategy and the economic climate. The proportion of exposure in AQ10 fell in all sectors that have experienced difficult market conditions in the past few years, including the shipping portfolio.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Market risk

Market risk is the risk of losses arising from fluctuations in interest rates, credit spreads, foreign currency rates, equity prices, commodity prices and other factors, such as market volatilities, that may lead to a reduction in earnings, economic value or both. For a description of market risk framework, governance, policies and methodologies, refer to the Risk and balance sheet management - Market risk section in the 2013 Annual Report and Accounts. There were no material changes to market risk methodologies or models during H1 2014.

Notes:

(1)

The Group benefits from diversification as it reduces risk by allocating positions across various financial instrument types, currencies and markets. The extent of the diversification benefit depends on the correlation between the assets and risk factors in the portfolio at a particular time. The diversification factor is the sum of the VaR on individual risk types less the total portfolio VaR.

(2)

The detailed RCR perimeter was not finalised at the start of the year. As average, maximum and minimum VaR are measures that require daily data, they have been prepared on a best efforts basis.

Key points

Theperiod end and averagetotal VaRwere lower in H1 2014 than in H2 2013, driven bycontinued reductions in credit spread and interest rate VaR, notably during Q12014.



The reduction in credit spread VaRwasprimarily driven by credit valuation adjustments (CVA) and funding valuation adjustments being included in the internal VaR measure in February 2014. Previously, only associated hedges were included. This approach reflects a more comprehensive economic view of the risk. Continued risk reduction also contributed to the decline in VaR.



The reduction in interest rate VaRwas driven by de-risking and repositioning in CIB, primarily in the Rates business.


Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Market risk: Trading portfolios (continued)

Capital charges*

The total market risk minimum capital requirement calculated in accordance with CRD IV, 2,669 million at 30 June 2014, represents 8% of the corresponding RWA amount, 33.4 billion. It comprises a number of regulatory capital requirements split into two categories: (i) the Pillar 1 model-based position risk requirement (PRR) of 1,717 million, which in turn comprises several modelled charges and (ii) the standardised PRR of 952 million, which also has several components.

The contributors to the Pillar 1 model-based PRR are presented in the table below.

Following the implementation of CRD IV on 1 January 2014, credit hedges eligible for CVA are no longer included in the modelled market risk capital charges, namely VaR, stressed VaR and the incremental risk charge. Such hedges are now included in the CVA capital charge, which forms part of the capital calculation for counterparty credit risk.

Key points

Overall, the Pillar 1 model-based PRR declined 18% to 1.7 billion in H1 2014, driven by reductions in the VaR and Stressed VaR charges, offset somewhat by an increase in the RNIV charge.



The decrease in the VaR charge in H1 was primarily driven by the removal of the CVA eligible hedges (as noted above) and ongoing risk reduction.



The decreases in the VaR and Stressed VaR charges in Q2 were driven primarily by a reduction of the asset backed product portfolio in line with risk reduction strategy.



Given the reduction in the size of the correlation trading portfolio, RBS ceased using an internal model for all price risk during Q2. With the PRA's approval, all remaining open risk is now capitalised under standardised rules.



The RNIV charge increased in H1 as, following an agreement with the PRA, the materiality threshold previously in place was removed and all RNIVs are now capitalised.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Market risk: Non-trading portfolios (continued)

Non-trading portfolios

Non-trading VaR

The average VaR for the Group's non-trading book, predominantly comprising available-for-sale portfolios, was 4.8 million during H1 2014 compared with 7.8 million during H2 2013. This was largely driven by a decline in the credit spread VaR in Q1, which partly reflected a decision to switch some of the securities that RBS holds as collateral from floating-rate notes issued by financial institutions to government bonds during March as part of efforts to reduce RWAs. The period end VaR decreased from 5.0 million at 31 December 2013 to 3.3 million at 31 March 2014, forthe reasonexplained above.It increased to 5.8 million at 30 June 2014,largely due to data quality improvements that expanded the scope of positionscapturedinRBS's non-traded VaR metrics.

Structured credit portfolio

The structured credit portfolio is measured on a notional and fair value basis because of its illiquid nature. Notional and fair value decreased to 0.5 billion and 0.4 billion respectively (31 December 2013 - 0.7 billion and 0.5 billion), reflecting the sale of underlying assets, primarily consumer ABS (student loans), RMBS and a small amount of CLOs, in line withRCRstrategy.

Non-trading interest rate risk

Non-traded interest rate risk impacts earnings arising from the Group's banking activities. This excludes positions in financial instruments which are classified as held-for-trading.

The methodology relating to interest rate risk is detailed in the 2013 Annual Report and Accounts.

Non-traded interest rate risk VaR metrics are based on interest rate repricing gap reports as at the reporting date. These incorporate customer products and associated funding and hedging transactions as well as non-financial assets and liabilities such as property, plant and equipment, capital and reserves. Behavioural assumptions are applied as appropriate.

VaR does not provide a dynamic measurement of interest rate risk since static underlying repricing gap positions are assumed. Changes in customer behaviour under varying interest rate scenarios are captured by way of earnings at risk measures. VaR relating to non-traded interest rate risk for RBS's retail and commercial banking activities at a 99% confidence level and a currency analysis at the period end were as follows:

Key points

The increase in period end VaR mainly reflects an increase in the duration of the Group's balance sheet, largely due to action taken by CFG to reduce earnings sensitivity to movements in short-term dollar interest rates.



The decline in sterling VaRover the period did not reflect a reduction in RBS's underlying exposure to sterling fixed rate assets, whichwas broadly unchanged.Instead, it reflected reduced volatility in sterling interest rates over the period and a smoother maturity profile of the underlying exposures.



These movements remained well within the Group's approved market risk appetite.

Sensitivity of net interest income*

Earnings sensitivity to rate movements is derived from a central forecast over a twelve month period. Market implied forward rates and new business volume, mix and pricing consistent with business assumptions are used to generate a base case earnings forecast.

The following table shows the sensitivity of net interest income, over the next twelve months, to an immediate upward or downward change of 100 basis points to all interest rates. In addition, the table includes the impact of a gradual 400 basis point steepening (bear steepener) and a gradual 300 basis point flattening (bull flattener) of the yield curve at tenors greater than a year.

The scenarios represent annualised interest rate stresses of a scale deemed sufficient to trigger a modification in customer behaviour. The asymmetry in the steepening and flattening scenarios reflects the difference in the expected behaviour of interest rates as they approach zero.

Key points

The Group's interest rate exposure remains asset sensitive, such that rising rates will have a positive impact on its net interest income.



The reduction in interest income sensitivity over the period largely reflects action taken by CFG to reduce earnings sensitivity to movements in short-term dollar interest rates.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Country risk

Country risk is the risk of losses occurring as a result of either a country event or unfavourable country operating conditions. As country events may simultaneously affect all or many individual exposures to a country, country event risk is a concentration risk. For other types of concentration risks such as product, sector or single-name concentration, refer to the Credit risk section. For a description of the governance, monitoring and management of RBS's country risk framework and definitions, refer to Risk and balance sheet management - Country risk of RBS's 2013 Annual Report and Accounts.

Overview*

The comments below relate to changes in the six months to 30 June 2014 unless indicated otherwise.

Net balance sheet and off-balance sheet exposure to most countries shown in the summary tables declined across most broad product categories. RBS maintained a cautious stance, many clients continued to reduce debt levels, and the US dollar and the euro depreciated against sterling by 3.3% and 3.9% respectively.



Total eurozone net balance sheet exposure decreased by 4.9 billion or 5% to 97.6 billion. This was caused largely by reductions in cash deposits held with central banks in Germany and the Netherlands, in corporate lending in Ireland and Germany, and in net held-for-trading (HFT) government bond positions in the Netherlands and Spain. CDS net bought protection on eurozone exposure increased by 1.1 billion. Net HFT debt securities in Germany, France, Belgium, Austria and Finland increased while exposure to the Netherlands, Italy and Spain decreased, driven by market opportunities. Net lending in RCR was 4.3 billion for the eurozone as a whole, including 1.4 billion in Germany, 0.8 billion in Spain and 0.6 billion in both France and Ireland. Commercial real estate sector accounted for broadly half of the total.



Eurozone periphery net balance sheet exposure decreased by 1.5 billion to 40.3 billion.


Ireland - Ulster Bank Ireland moved 2.0 billion of cash deposits with RBS to the Central Bank of Ireland in anticipation of the new CRD IV liquidity coverage ratio requirements, which will come into effect in 2015. Net lending to corporates and households decreased by 1.4 billion and 0.8 billion respectively, reflecting currency movements, repayments, sales and write-offs.


Spain - net balance sheet exposure decreased by 1.8 billion, largely as a result of reductions in net HFT and AFS debt securities and lower lending to the commercial real estate sector. The reduction in AFS securities reflected the sale of some of the covered bonds ('cedulas') in the RBS NV liquidity buffer.


Italy - net derivatives to banks increased by 1.2 billion, driven by the novation of a portfolio from a counterparty. The novated exposure is fully cash collateralised. Net HFT government bonds exposure declined by 0.8 billion.


Portugal - net HFT debt securities increased by nearly 0.2 billion reflecting greater appetite for Portuguese trading exposure.

Appendix 1 Capital and risk management

Country risk: Overview* (continued)

Germany - net balance sheet exposure fell by 3.8 billion, mainly due to a decrease of 2.7 billion in cash deposits with the Bundesbank. Other significant reductions were in commercial real estate lending (1.3 billion) and in derivatives, notably to banks, by 0.6 billion reflecting market movements. Off-balance exposure decreased by 1.0 billion, mostly owing to a reduction in the insurance sector.



France - net balance sheet exposure rose by 0.8 billion, reflecting business fluctuations. Off-balance exposure decreased by 0.4 billion, largely due to reductions in the oil and gas, industrials and insurance sectors.



Netherlands - net balance sheet exposure fell by 2.8 billion as a result of a drop in HFT government bonds, a decrease in cash deposits held with the central bank, and reductions in AFS debt securities. RBS NV's liquidity needs have decreased in line with balance sheet reductions, and sales are being executed dependent on market conditions, which were relatively benign in H1. Off-balance sheet exposure increased by 0.2 billion, primarily in the non-bank financial institutions sector.



Belgium - net balance sheet exposure increased by 1.0 billion, in HFT government bonds. Off balance exposure decreased by 0.3 billion, mostly in the electricity sector.



Other eurozone - net HFT government bonds increased by 0.6 billion reflecting increased long positions.



China - lending to banks increased by 0.2 billion, while off-balance sheet exposure to banks fell by a similar amount. The bank undertakes stress testing across both financial institutions and corporate portfolios, with early warning indicators and action plans for a possible economic downturn.



Japan - net balance sheet exposure decreased by 0.9 billion as a result of reductions in derivatives exposure to banks and other financial institutions and lower corporate lending.



India - net balance sheet exposure fell by 0.9 billion, with reductions in lending and AFS debt exposure to banks and in lending to corporate clients.These reductions in part reflected securities and loans sales to reduce risk-weighted assets in favourable market conditions.



Russia - net balance sheet exposure decreased by 0.1 billion to 1.8 billion, including 0.9 billion of corporate lending and 0.6 billion of lending to banks. Nearly half of the latter exposure was fully hedged. Following developments in Ukraine, ratings were reviewed, limits adjusted and additional credit restrictions placed on new business. Exposures are also reviewed against any international sanctions.



Turkey - lending to banks increased by 0.3 billion, partly reflecting drawings under committed limits.



Funding mismatches - material estimated funding mismatches at risk of redenomination at 30 June 2014 were: Ireland 7.5 billion (up from 6.5 billion at 31 December 2013 largely due to the 2.0 billion increase in cash held with the central bank and reduced central bank funding); Spain 5.0 billion (down from 6.5 billion); Italy 0.5 billion (broadly unchanged as assets fell and a central bank funding line was no longer used); and Portugal 0.5 billion (slightly up due to higher debt trading). The net positions for Greece and Cyprus were minimal. Risks of eurozone break-up (redenomination events) have materially fallen since 2011-2012 owing to major improvements in liquidity conditions, driven by the availability of substantial new tools for the ECB, the establishment of the European Stability Mechanism and member countries' progress on reducing imbalances.

These tables show RBS exposure, at 30 June 2014 and 31 December 2013 by country of operation of the counterparty, except exposures to governments and individuals which are shown by country of residence.Balance sheet exposures are now shown net of loan impairment provisions and prior period data are shown on the same basis. Countries shown are those where the balance sheet exposure exceeded 1 billion and which had ratings of A+ or below from Standard and Poor's, Moody's or Fitch at 30 June 2014, as well as selected eurozone countries. The exposures are stated before taking into account risk mitigants, such as guarantees, insurance or collateral (with the exception of reverse repos). Exposures relating to ocean-going vessels are not included as they cannot be meaningfully assigned to specific countries from a country risk perspective.
