• OTC derivatives • South Africa should carefully assess the cost and benefits of mandating central clearing for its OTC derivatives markets: • Size of SA derivatives market and breakdown by asset class • High concentration by five dealers • Allocation of SA derivatives market as between dealer-to-dealer and dealer-to-customer transaction • Incremental benefit of a multilateral netting benefits achieved as to existing bi-lateral “ISDA” • Existing efficiency and market infrastructure of foreign exchange markets • Liquidity of individual products in specific asset classes • Existence of a domestic or foreign CCP to clear such products • If no domestic CCP exists, the cost, risk and benefit if a foreign CCP exists Regulatory reforms (cont.)

• Central counterparty clearing • CCP should a robust risk management program (stringent membership, level of initial and additional margin, calculation of daily MTM exposure, payment and receipt of variation margin • Adequate financial resources (guarantee fund deposits, standby funding, high level of surplus capital sufficient to withstand the default of one or two), the concentration in CCP could result in a greater potential for systemic risk • Trade repositories • Key recommendation that arose of 2009 G20 Pittsburgh Summit • Financial Markets Bill appropriately establishes the function and responsibilities of trade repositories and provides a framework for their supervision • There is a need for flexibility in implementing requirements as systems, technology and data formats will evolve over time • Volker rule - no decision have been made in terms of these principles across the markets we operate, except for the market Regulatory reforms (cont.)

Source: National Treasury – Gateway to Africa and other reforms. IMF Article IV: “A strong banking system but increasing risk”

“South Africa remains at the forefront of financial sector regulatory reform globally The adoption of Basel III earlier this year, the envisaged implementation of the Twin Peaks system from 2014, and several financial sector initiatives will further reinforce South Africa’s already strong financial architecture. Including the National Credit Regulator within the Twin Peaks System, as recommended by the 2012 FSB peer review, would consolidate regulation and supervision and market conduct for all financial institutions. The SARB last year introduced a committed liquidity facility that enables banks to meet the liquidity coverage ratio, and very limited new style Basel III type of bail-in capital instruments have been issued by local banks to strengthen banks’ loss absorption capacity and enhance long-term stable funding sources, though banks would still find it difficult to meet the net stable funding ratio (NSFR) in the form currently envisaged. A deposit insurance scheme is being developed and the crisis management framework is being improved.”

Capital level (Basel III estimates) CET1 challenges given Basel III approach to minorities

• The reality • Subsidiaries’ in-country minimum higher than SARB minimum capital requirement • Local shareholding requirement • Basel III rule and consequence • Limited inclusion of minorities where a bank-regulated subsidiary carries capital in excess of SARB minimum requirement (example FNB Limited) • No inclusion of minorities held in an entity other than a bank (example FNB Holdings Limited, even though consolidated supervision applied to bank controlling company) • FirstRand’s response • All entities within the Group – continue to apply core principles • Appropriate capitalisation on a stand-alone basis • Ensure treatment of majority and minority interests prudently sound • Ongoing education of investors around anomalies in Basel III consolidated CET1 ratio Agenda

• FirstRand Bank • Balance sheet strength • Funding and liquidity • Capital position • International funding and capital plans FirstRand’s philosophy on foreign currency external debt

• Framework for the management of external debt takes into account sources of sovereign risk: • Unsustainable debt path (solvency) crisis • Liquidity crisis • Exchange rate and macroeconomic crisis • We consider the external debt of all South African entities… • Private and public sector • Financial institutions • …as all these entities utilise the South African system’s capacity • Confidence and export receipt

• Therefore FirstRand places internal constraints that are more stringent than the macro prudential limit Conceptual liquidity in FX market

• Reduced credit costs in funding • A currency swap is a net transaction, subject to ISDA • Offset results in reduced credit risk • Usually under CSA, zero threshold becoming more common • You do not have to pay sovereign credit spread • By giving funders the opportunity to frequently reassess and reprice you – the cost charged is much less • Results in increased liquidity risk

• Swap market is more liquid than term funding market

• Interbank funded not capital market based • Less lead times • No programs and extensive documentation International funding activities
