in other countries, we are also subject to the fluctuations of the global economy and financial markets. Factors that determine economic and business cycles in the Korean or global economy are for the most part beyond our control and inherently uncertain. In addition to discussions of recent developments regarding the global economic and market uncertainties and the risks relating to us as provided elsewhere in this section, factors that could have an adverse impact on Korea’s economy in the future include, among others:
continued volatility or deterioration in Korea’s credit and capital markets;
difficulties in the financial sectors in Europe, China and elsewhere and increased sovereign default risks in select countries and the resulting adverse effects on the global financial markets;
declines in consumer confidence and a slowdown in consumer spending and corporate investments;
adverse changes or volatility in foreign currency reserve levels, commodity prices (including oil prices), exchange rates (including fluctuation of the U.S. Dollar, the Euro or the Japanese Yen exchange rates or revaluation of the Chinese Renminbi and the overall impact of the referendum in the United Kingdom in June 2016, in which the majority of voters voted in favor of anKingdom’s exit from the European Union on January 31, 2020 (“Brexit”) on the value of the Korean Won), interest rates, inflation rates or stock markets;
increasing levels of household debt;
increasing delinquencies and credit defaults by retail and small- andmedium-sized enterprise borrowers;
continuing adverse conditions in the economies of countries and regions that are important export markets for Korea, such as the United States, Europe, Japan and China, or in emerging market economies in Asia or elsewhere, as well as increased uncertainty in the wake of Brexit;
the economic impact of any pending or future free trade agreements;
potential escalation of the ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China as each country introduces tariffs on goods traded with the other;
social and labor unrest;
decreases in the market prices of Korean real estate;
a decrease in tax revenue and a substantial increase in the Government’s expenditures for fiscal stimulus measures, unemployment compensation and other economic and social programs that, together, would lead to an increased government budget deficit;
financial problems or lack of progress in the restructuring of Korean business groups, other large troubled companies, their suppliers or the financial sector;
increases in social expenditures to support an aging population in Korea or decreases in economic productivity due to the declining population size in Korea;
geopolitical uncertainty and risk of further attacks by terrorist groups around the world, including the actions of theso-called “Islamic State”;
the occurrence of severe health epidemics in Korea and other parts of the world, including the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak, as well as the Ebola, Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Zika virus outbreaks;
deterioration in economic or diplomatic relations between Korea and its trading partners or allies, including deterioration resulting from territorial or trade disputes or disagreements in foreign policy andsuch as the recent diplomatic tension between Korea and China with respect to the deployment of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system in Korea;
political uncertainty, or increasing strife among or within political parties in Korea, and political gridlock within the government or in the legislature, which prevents or disrupts timely and effective policy making;
hostilities or political or social tensions involvingoil-producing countries in the Middle East and North Africa and any material disruption in the global supply of oil or sudden increase in the price of oil;
political or social tensions involving Russia and any resulting adverse effects on the global supply of oil or the global financial markets;
the occurrence of natural orman-made disasters in Korea (such as the sinking of the Sewol ferry in April 2014, which significantly dampened consumer sentiment in Korea for months) and other parts of the world, particularly in trading partners of Korea; and
an increase in the level of tensions or an outbreak of hostilities between North Korea and Korea or the United States.
Any future deterioration of the Korean economy could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Tensions with North Korea could have an adverse effect on us, the price of our common shares and our American depositary shares.
Relations between Korea and North Korea have been tense throughout Korea’s modern history. The level of tension between the two KoreasKorea and North Korea has fluctuated and may increase abruptly as a result of current and future events. In particular, since the death of Kim Jong-il in December 2011, there has been increased uncertainty with respect to the future of North Korea’s political leadership and concern regarding its implications for political and economic stability in the region. Although Kim Jong-il’s third son, Kim Jong-eun has assumed power as his father’s designated successor, the long-term outcome of such leadership transition remains uncertain.
In addition, there continues to be heightened security tension in the region stemming from North Korea’s hostile military and diplomatic actions, including in respect of its nuclear weapons and long-range missile programs. Some examples from recent years include the following:
North Korea renounced its obligations under the NuclearNon-Proliferation Treaty in January 2003 and conducted threesix rounds of nuclear tests betweensince October 2006, to February 2013,including claimed detonations of hydrogen bombs, which increased tensions inare more powerful than plutonium bombs, and warheads that can be mounted on ballistic missiles. Over the region and elicited strong objections worldwide. On January 6, 2016,years, North Korea announcedhas also conducted a series of ballistic missile tests, including missiles launched from submarines and intercontinental ballistic missiles that it had successfully conducted its first hydrogen bombclaims can reach the United States mainland. In response, the Government has repeatedly condemned the provocations and flagrant violations of relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions. Internationally, the United Nations Security Council has passed a series of resolutions condemning North Korea’s actions and significantly expanding the scope of sanctions applicable to North Korea, most recently in December 2017 in response to North Korea’s intercontinental ballistic missile test hours after international monitors detected a 5.1 magnitude earthquake near a known nuclear testing site in November 2017. Over the country. Theyears, the United States and the European Union have also expanded their sanctions applicable to North Korea.

In August 2015, two Korean soldiers were injured in a landmine explosion while on routine patrol of the southern side of the demilitarized zone. Claiming the landmines were set by North Koreans, the Korean armyre-initiated its propaganda program toward North Korea utilizing loudspeakers near the demilitarized zone. In retaliation, the North Korean army fired artillery rounds on the loudspeakers, resulting in the highest level of military readiness for both sides. High-ranking officials from North Korea and Korea subsequently met for discussions intending to diffuse military tensions and released a joint statement whereby, among other things, North Korea expressed regret over the landmine explosions that wounded the Korean soldiers.
In April 2013,February 2016, in retaliation of North Korea’s launch of a long-range rocket, Korea blocked Koreans from enteringannounced that it would halt its operations of the Kaesong Industrial Complex, an industrial complex in the border city of Kaesong.Kaesong, to impede North Korea’s utilization of funds from the industrial complex to finance its nuclear and missile programs. In the same month, the United States deployed nuclear-capable carriers in the Korean air and sea space. In September 2013, however, Korea andresponse, North Korea reached an agreement and resumedannounced that it would expel all Korean

In March 2013, North Korea stated that it had entered “a state of war” with Korea, declaring the 1953 armistice invalid, and put its artillery at the highest level of combat readiness to protest the Korea-United States allies’ military drills and additional sanctions imposed on North Korea for its missile and nuclear tests.
North Korea’s economy also faces severe challenges, including severe inflation and food shortages, which may further aggravate social and political tensions within North Korea. In addition, reunification of Korea and North Korea could occur in the future, which would entail significant economic commitment and expenditure by Korea that may outweigh any resulting economic benefits of reunification.
ThereIn April, May and September 2018, President MoonJae-in met KimJong-un in a series of summit meetings to discuss, among other matters, denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. In June 2018, U.S. President Donald Trump and KimJong-un in turn had an official summit in Singapore, the first ever meeting between leaders of the United States and North Korea. Subsequent to the Singapore summit, they signed a joint statement, which stated, among others, new peaceful relations and the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. A second official summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and KimJong-un was held in Vietnam in February 2019 but ended abruptly and without an agreement. In June 2019, U.S. President Donald Trump and KimJong-un had another summit at the Korean Demilitarized Zone, following which both sides announced a resumption of denuclearization talks. However, in December 2019, North Korea announced its intention to resume missile testing, heightening tensions.
In the aftermath of these developments, there remains significant uncertainty regarding peace talks and the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. As such, there can be no assurance that the level of tension on the Korean peninsula will not escalate in the future or that the political regime in North Korea may not suddenly collapse. Any further increase in tension or uncertainty relating to the military, political or economic stability in the Korean peninsula, including a breakdown of diplomatic negotiations over the North Korean nuclear program, occurrence of military hostilities, heightened concerns about the stability of North Korea’s political leadership or its actual collapse, a leadership crisis, a breakdown of high-level contacts or accelerated reunification could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the price of our common shares and our American depositary shares.
Risks Relating to Our American Depositary Shares
There are restrictions on withdrawal and deposit of common shares under the depositary facility.
Under the deposit agreement, holders of shares of our common stock may deposit those shares with the depositary bank’s custodian in Korea and obtain American depositary shares, and holders of American depositary shares may surrender American depositary shares to the depositary bank and receive shares of our common stock. However, under current Korean laws and regulations, the depositary bank is required to obtain our prior consent for the number of shares to be deposited in any given proposed deposit which exceeds the difference between (1) the aggregate number of shares deposited by us for the issuance of American depositary shares (including deposits in connection with the initial and all subsequent offerings of American depositary shares and stock dividends or other distributions related to these American depositary shares) and (2) the number of shares on deposit with the depositary bank at the time of such proposed deposit. We have consented to the deposit of outstanding shares of common stock as long as the number of American depositary shares outstanding at any time does not exceed 40,432,628. As a result, if you surrender American depositary shares and withdraw shares of common stock, you may not be able to deposit the shares again to obtain American depositary shares.
Ownership of our shares is restricted under Korean law.
Under the Financial Holding Companies Act, any single shareholder (together with certain persons in a special relationship with such shareholder) may acquire beneficial ownership of up to 10% of the total issued and outstanding shares with voting rights of a bank holding company controlling national banks such as us. In addition, any person, except for a “non-financial“non-financial business group company” (as defined below), may acquire in excess of 10% of the total voting shares issued and outstanding of a financial holding company which controls a
national bank, provided that a prior approval from the Financial Services Commission is obtained each time such person’s aggregate holdings exceed 10% (or 15% in the case of a financial holding company controlling regional banks only), 25% or 33% of the total voting shares issued and outstanding of such financial holding company. The Government and the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation are exempt from this limit. Furthermore, certainnon-financial business group companies (i.e., (i) any same shareholder group with aggregate net assets of allnon-financial business companies belonging to such group of not less than 25% of the aggregate net assets of all members of such group; (ii) any same shareholder group with aggregate assets of allnon-financial business companies belonging to such group of not less thanW2 trillion; or (iii) any mutual fund in which athe same shareholder group identified in (i) or (ii) above owns more than 4% of the total shares issued and outstanding of such mutual fund) may not acquire beneficial ownership in us in excess of 4% of our outstanding voting shares, provided that suchnon-financial business group companies may acquire beneficial ownership of up to 10% of our outstanding voting shares with the approval of the Financial Services Commission under the condition that suchnon-financial business group companies will not exercise voting rights in respect of such shares in excess of the 4% limit. See “Item 4.B. Business Overview — Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Restrictions on Financial Holding Company Ownership.” To the extent that the total number of shares of our common stock that you and your affiliates own together exceeds these limits, you will not be entitled to exercise the voting rights for the excess shares, and the Financial Services Commission may order you to dispose of the excess shares within a period of up to six months. Failure to comply with such an order would result in a fine of up toW50 million, plus an additional charge of up to 0.03% of the book value of such shares per day until the date of disposal.
Holders of our ADSs will not have preemptive rights in certain circumstances.
The Korean Commercial Code and our articles of incorporation require us, with some exceptions, to offer shareholders the right to subscribe for new shares in proportion to their existing ownership percentage whenever new shares are issued. If we offer any rights to subscribe for additional shares of our common stock or any rights of any other nature, the depositary bank, after consultation with us, may make the rights available to you or use reasonable efforts to dispose of the rights on your behalf and make the net proceeds available to you. The depositary bank, however, is not required to make available to you any rights to purchase any additional shares unless it deems that doing so is lawful and feasible and:
a registration statement filed by us under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is in effect with respect to those shares; or
the offering and sale of those shares is exempt from or is not subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act.
We are under no obligation to file any registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If a registration statement is required for you to exercise preemptive rights but is not filed by us, you will not be able to exercise your preemptive rights for additional shares and you will suffer dilution of your equity interest in us.
Holders of our ADSs will not be able to exercise dissent and appraisal rights unless they have withdrawn the underlying shares of our common stock and become our direct stockholders.
Under Korean law, in some limited circumstances, including the transfer of the whole or any significant part of our business and the merger or consolidation of us with another company, dissenting stockholders have the
right to require us to purchase their shares under Korean law. However, under our deposit agreement, holders of our American depositary shares do not have, and may not instruct the depositary as to the exercise of, any dissenter’s rights provided to the holders of our common shares under Korean law. Therefore, if holders of our American depositary shares wish to exercise dissenting rights, they must withdraw the underlying common stock from the American depositary shares facility (and incur charges relating to that withdrawal) and become our direct stockholders prior to the record date of the stockholders’shareholders’ meeting at which the relevant transaction is to be approved, in order to exercise dissent and appraisal rights.
The market value of your investment in our ADSs may fluctuate due to the volatility of the Korean securities market.
Our common stock is listed on the KRX KOSPI Division of the Korea Exchange, which has a smaller market capitalization and is more volatile than the securities markets in the United States and many European countries. The market value of ADSs may fluctuate in response to the fluctuation of the trading price of shares of our common stock on the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange. The Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange has experienced substantial fluctuations in the prices and volumes of sales of listed securities and the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange has prescribed a fixed range in which share prices are permitted to move on a daily basis. Like other securities markets, including those in developed markets, the Korean securities market has experienced problems including market manipulation, insider trading and settlement failures. The recurrence of these or similar problems could have a material adverse effect on the market price and liquidity of the securities of Korean companies, including our common stock and ADSs, in both the domestic and the international markets.
The Government has the potential ability to exert substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector business community, and in the past has exerted that influence from time to time. For example, the Government has promoted mergers to reduce what it considers excess capacity in a particular industry and has also encouraged private companies to publicly offer their securities. Similar actions in the future could have the effect of depressing or boosting the Korean securities market, whether or not intended to do so. Accordingly, actions by the government, or the perception that such actions are taking place, may take place or has ceased, may cause sudden movements in the market prices of the securities of Korean companies in the future, which may affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock and ADSs.
Your dividend payments and the amount you may realize upon a sale of your ADSs will be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. Dollar and the Won.
Investors who purchase the American depositary shares will be required to pay for them in U.S. Dollars. Our outstanding shares are listed on the Korea Exchange and are quoted and traded in Won. Cash dividends, if any, in respect of the shares represented by the American depositary shares will be paid to the depositary bank in Won and then converted by the depositary bank into U.S. Dollars, subject to certain conditions. Accordingly, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Won and the U.S. Dollar will affect, among other things, the amounts a registered holder or beneficial owner of the American depositary shares will receive from the depositary bank in respect of dividends, the U.S. Dollar value of the proceeds which a holder or owner would receive upon sale in Korea of the shares obtained upon surrender of American depositary shares and the secondary market price of the American depositary shares.
If the Government deems that certain emergency circumstances are likely to occur, it may restrict the depositary bank from converting and remitting dividends in Dollars.
If the Government deems that certain emergency circumstances are likely to occur, it may impose restrictions such as requiring foreign investors to obtain prior Government approval for the acquisition of Korean
securities or for the repatriation of interest or dividends arising from Korean securities or sales proceeds from disposition of such securities. These emergency circumstances include any or all of the following:
sudden fluctuations in interest rates or exchange rates;
extreme difficulty in stabilizing the balance of payments; and
a substantial disturbance in the Korean financial and capital markets.
The depositary bank may not be able to secure such prior approval from the government for the payment of dividends to foreign investors when the Government deems that there are emergency circumstances in the Korean financial markets.
Other Risks
We are generally subject to Korean corporate governance and disclosure standards, which differ in significant respects from those in other countries.
Companies in Korea, including us, are subject to corporate governance standards applicable to Korean public companies which differ in many respects from standards applicable in other countries, including the United States. As a reporting company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and listed on the New York Stock Exchange, we are, and in the future will be, subject to certain corporate governance standards as mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. However, foreign private issuers, including us, are exempt from certain corporate governance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. For significant differences, see “Item 16G. Corporate Governance.” There may also be less publicly available information about Korean companies, such as us, than is regularly made available by public ornon-public companies in other countries. Such differences in corporate governance standards and less public information could result in less than satisfactory corporate governance practices or disclosure to investors in certain countries.
You may not be able to enforce a judgment of a foreign court against us.
We are a corporation with limited liability organized under the laws of Korea. All or substantially all of our directors and officers and other persons named in this annual report reside in Korea, and all or a substantial portion of the assets of our directors and officers and other persons named in this annual report and substantially all of our assets are located in Korea. As a result, it may not be possible for holders of the American depository shares to effect service of process within the United States, or to enforce against them or us in the United States judgments obtained in United States courts based on the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Korea, either in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgments of United States courts, of civil liabilities predicated on the United States federal securities laws.
We may become a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”), which could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to U.S. investors.
Based upon the past and projected composition of our income and assets and valuation of our assets, including goodwill, we do not believe that we were a PFIC for 2016,2019, and we do not expect to be a PFIC in 20172020 or to become one in the foreseeable future, although there can be no assurance in this regard. If, however, we become a PFIC, such characterization could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to you if you are a U.S. investor. For example, if we become a PFIC, our U.S. investors willmay become subject to increased tax liabilities under U.S. tax laws and regulations and will become subject to burdensome reporting requirements. Our PFIC status is determined on an annual basis and depends on the composition of our income and assets. Specifically, we will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. tax purposes if either: (i) 75% or more of our gross income in a taxable year is passive income, or (ii) the average percentage of our assets by value in a taxable year which
produce or are held for the production of passive income (which generally includes cash) is at least 50%. Special rules treat certain income earned by anon-U.S. corporation engaged in the active conduct of a banking business asnon-passive income. See “Item 10.E. Taxation — Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.” We cannot assure you that we will not be a PFIC for 20172020 or any future taxable year.

| ITEM 4.A. | History and Development of the Company |
Introduction
We are one of the leading financial institutions in Korea in terms of total assets, revenues, profitability and capital adequacy, among others. Incorporated on September 1, 2001, we are the first privately-held financial
holding company to be established in Korea. Since inception, we have developed and introduced a wide range of financial products and services in Korea and aimed to deliver comprehensive financial solutions to clients through a convenientone-portal network. According to reports by the Financial Supervisory Service, we are the largest financial services provider in Korea (as measured by consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2016)September 30, 2019) and operate the fourthsecond largest banking business (as measured by consolidated total bank assets as of December 31, 2016)September 30, 2019) and the largest credit card business (as measured by the total credit purchase volume in 2016)2019) in Korea.
We have experienced substantial growth through several mergers and acquisitions. Most notably, our acquisition of Chohung Bank in 2003 has enabled us to have the fourthsecond largest banking operations in Korea. In addition, our acquisition in March 2007 of LG Card, the then largest credit card company in Korea, has enabled us to have the largest credit card operations in Korea and significantly expand ournon-banking business capacity so as to achieve a balanced business portfolio. In September 2018, we announced the acquisition of a 59.15% interest in Orange Life Insurance, the former Korean unit of ING Life Insurance, as part of our efforts to diversify and enhance ournon-banking businesses and closed on February 1, 2019. On January 28, 2020, we acquired the remaining interests in Orange Life Insurance by effecting a comprehensive stock exchange under Articles360-2 of the Korean Commercial Code whereby holders (other than us) of Orange Life Insurance’s common stock transferred all of their shares to us and in return receive shares of our common stock, and hence Orange Life Insurance has become our wholly owned subsidiary as of such date.
We currentlyAs of March 31, 2020, we have 1317 direct subsidiaries and 2427 indirect subsidiaries offering a wide range of financial products and services, including commercial banking, corporate banking, private banking, credit card, asset management, brokerage and insurance services.

Our Strategy
‘2020 Smart Project’ through 2020
Since our inception in 2001 we have pursuedstrived to become Asia’s leading financial group by establishing a foundation for sustainable growth. In furtherance of this goal, we implemented the “2020 SMART Project” in
2017, consisting of four strategic pillars — (1) balanced growth, (2) glocalization, (3) digital transformation and (4) upholding the Shinhan culture — to ensure a high level of consistency in the strategic directions the Group announces each year, to continuously upgrade the strategic tasks in furtherance of these directives and to maintain and improve upon the speed upon we undertake such initiatives.
We have also adopted the “One Shinhan (creating synergies within the Group)” strategy as an additional initiative on top of the 2020 SMART Project in order to efficiently utilize the entire range of the Group’s resources and provide comprehensive financial solutions for our customers. Pursuant to the “One Shinhan” strategy, we continue to strengthen our matrix organizational structure, diversifying business lines and enhancing synergies with our existing businesses. Through the tireless execution of these initiatives, we continue to pursue our ultimate goal of implementing sustainable financial management and cultivating areas of continuous growth and earning potential, thereby maintaining and building upon a consistent strategic direction toward becoming Korea’s leading brand and a world class financial group.
We have specifically focused on the following objectives asfour strategic areas and have made significant progress through 2019.
| A. | Maximizing our value through balanced growth |
We recorded total net income ofW3,403 billion, the corehighest since our inception, through robust organic growth of our long-term strategy: (i)existing subsidiaries and inorganic growth, including through establishing new entities such as Shinhan REITs Management and acquiring businesses such as Orange Life Insurance and Asia Trust Co., Ltd. in an attempt to strengthen ournon-banking business lines. We have tried to maintain a balanced growthbusiness across our business portfolio without disproportionately focusing on certain companies, geographical regions or areas of business.
| B. | Accelerating glocalization |
We aim for the simultaneous pursuit of both expansion of our global presence and localization based on tailored strategies for our global businesses, thereby strengthening the synergies from our matrix organizational structure. As part of our efforts, we acquired ANZ Bank (Vietnam) Limited’s retail division in 2017 and Prudential Vietnam Finance Company Limited and PT Archipelago Asset Management, an Indonesian asset management firm, in 2018. We have also created a Global Business Group and adopted a country head system, enabling us to effectively coordinate the decision process across multiple subsidiaries within a country and allowing us to maximize synergy between our bankingglobal businesses. In addition, we have focused on strengthening our local business capabilities through the development of products and non-banking businesses, (ii) continued creationservices better tailored to meet the needs of local customers as well as through increasing the hiring of local personnel who are familiar with the local business environment. In part due to such efforts, we recorded the highest net profit from our overseas operations since our inception in 2019.
| C. | Upgrading to ‘Digital Shinhan’ |
We have upgraded our digital platforms such as SOL and Shinhan PayFAN as part of a group-wide initiative to streamline our operations and create a digital-friendly business platform. Particularly in response to the changing competitive landscape, including virtual payment services and new mobile based payment methods introduced by competitors such as online service providers, technology companies and Internet-only banks, we have focused our efforts on creating a platform featuring new technology that is more customer oriented and user friendly. As a result of our consistent digital transformation efforts, the number of users of SOL and PayFAN have increased from approximately 8.3 million and 10.5 million respectively, as of December 31, 2018, to 10.8 million and 11.6 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2019. In order to effectively adapt to the new business environment and foster the digital ecosystem, we have also launched a program called Shinhan Future’s Lab, which is dedicated to the “fintech” business by actively pursuing technology development, and formed
strategic alliances with key partners as well as additional teams focusing on innovation and creating new sources of value for our clients through the development of promising future technologies such as artificial intelligence, block chain, open application programming interfaces and innovative digital platforms.
| D. | Promoting our corporate culture |
We believe our culture emphasizing flexibility, productivity and creativity has allowed us to continue our growth as an organization. In addition to streamlining our internal decision making and approval processes and systems, we have emphasized a group-wide “S.A.Q. (speed, agility and quickness) transformation” in order to enhance our ability to swiftly adapt to the rapidly changing business environment. We have also continued our efforts for social sustainability, for example, through our “Society of Hope Project” carrying out social initiatives such as support for financially underprivileged families, career-discontinued women and households in crisis, our “ECO Transformation 2020” initiative emphasizing environment friendly business practices andco-implementing the Principles for Responsible Banking as promulgated by identifyingthe UN Environment Finance Initiative with 28 other banks around the world.
‘Excellent Shinhan’ for 2020 and beyond
Beginning in 2020, we have set ourselves new business opportunitiesaspirations and gaining a competitive edge through differentiatingstrategic priorities to achieve ‘Excellent Shinhan,’ our business model from that of our competitors,newmid- and (iii) becominglong-term goal upgrading and in succession to the market leader in Korea2020 SMART Project and designed to address internal and external instability we may face and continue growing as a world-class financial holding company through enhancementgroup. We have developed a business philosophy, namely the ‘Three Principles’ that define our vision for the future, a unique growth directive known as ‘F.R.E.S.H.’ and seven strategic directions for ‘Excellent Shihan.’
The Three Principles are trust, openness and progress. We value trust, since we believe our presence as a financial group can only exist because of our customers’ trust in us. We believe the future growth of financial services lies beyond the current boundaries. Finally, we believe that innovation and progress are the foundation for achieving our mission to contribute to a better world through finance. By following the Three Principles, we strive to be recognized by our customers and the society as a world-class financial group and to achieve our goal of Excellent Shinhan.
Under the Three Principles, we aim to successfully complete the 2020 SMART Project and implement our unique business development approach summarized as ‘F.R.E.S.H.’ ‘F.R.E.S.H.’ stands for ‘Fundamental’ (stable fundamentals), ‘Resilience’ (ability to overcome crisis situations), ‘Ecosystem’ (online and offline platforms and digital ecosystem), ‘Sustainability’ (consistent group-wide effort to achieve sustainable growth) and ‘Human-talent’ (talented human resources leading the Fourth Industrial Revolution). Given continuously uncertain and unstable market conditions, we place particular importance on ‘Resilience’, i.e., our strength to strengthen andre-create our core capabilities amidst an uncertain and unstable market environment.
Seven Strategic Directions for ‘Excellent Shinhan’
| A. | Pursuit of Efficient Growth |
We plan to pursue quality focused growth by improving our return on assets through efficient capital management and strategic cost reduction, and we are aiming to invest in high added-value areas by utilizing the capital accrued from our existing business lines, accelerating our growth both organically and inorganically.
| B. | Global Connection and Expansion |
Although our global business have mostly been limited to local channels, we plan to expand to cover global wealth management and asset management. We intend to increase our overseas investment and foreign asset management capabilities and provide further advanced global financial services for our clients, including export-import financing, global direct investment and structured product sourcing. Furthermore, we plan to establish a unique and competitive business model by strategically rebuilding our global business portfolio.
| C. | Conversion to Innovative and Open Digital Platforms |
As part of our proactive preparation for the future, we aim toscale-up our group-wide digital capabilities, organization system, culture, and human resources by partnering and cooperating with major technology and fintech companies. Specifically, our future projects would include providing innovative customer experiences with diverse platforms, ramping up AI capabilities, establishing integrated big data and algorithm platforms, fostering a digital ecosystem and using digital means to enhance efficient task management and IT infrastructure.
| D. | High Performance in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Management |
We have received various distinctions from environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) rating agencies, both domestic and abroad, for example inclusion in the DSJI World for seven consecutive years (ranked sixth worldwide and first in the Korean market) published by RobecoSAM and in the Global 100 (ranked within top 43 for eight consecutive years and ranked sixth among financial companies), for our market-leading ESG management, such as the establishment of the innovative finance committee and implementation of the “ECO Transformation 2020” initiative emphasizing environment-friendly business practices. We aim to further strengthen our ESG management capabilities to foster an environmentally friendly, inclusive and trust-based business management system. Furthermore, we plan to develop a business evaluation model to measure the value of a sustainable management and establish a system that can lead to tangible results.
| E. | Development of a Dynamic Organization System |
To further efficient management on a group-wide basis, we plan to develop a dynamic group-wide portfolio system based on (i) creativity and balance and (ii) cooperation and promotion. In particular, we plan to strengthen the Group’s role where efficient use of capital and human resources across various Group subsidiaries is required, there are overlapping customers or markets among Group subsidiaries and where we believe a synergy effect within the Group is possible.

Deposit-Taking Activities
Principally through Shinhan Bank, we offer many deposit products that target different customer segments with features tailored to each segment’s financial and other profiles. Our deposit products consist principally of the following:
| • | Demand deposits. Demand deposits do not accrue interest or accrue interest at a lower rate than time or savings deposits and allow the customer to deposit and withdraw funds at any time. If interest-bearing, demand deposits have interest accruing at a fixed or variable rate depending on the period and the amount of deposit. Demand deposits constituted |

|
|
| • | Other deposits. Other deposits consist mainly of certificates of deposit. Certificates of deposit typically have maturities from 30 days to two years. Interest rates on certificates of deposit are determined based on the length of the deposit and prevailing market interest rates. Certificates of deposit are sold at a discount to their face value, reflecting the interest payable on the certificates of deposit. Certificates of deposit constituted |
We also offer deposits which provide the customer with preferential rights to housing subscriptions under the Housing Law and Rules on Housing Supply (the “Housing Law”), and eligibility for mortgage and home
equity loans. As a result of an amendment to the Housing Law in June 2015, new subscriptions to housing subscription savings accounts, housing subscription time deposits accounts and housing subscription installment savings accounts became no longer available after September 1, 2015. Instead, general housing subscription savings accounts (which combine all of the functions of the aforementioned three accounts) presently remain available to all. The contribution period is from the subscription date to the date on which the account holder is selected as the purchaser of a house, and the required monthly contribution amount is from a minimum ofW20,000 to a maximum ofW500,000. The interests accrued on general housing subscription savings accounts are paid in lump sum upon termination of the account, and such interests shall be calculated at the interest rate determined and announced by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. Those who have a general housing subscription savings account and meet certain other criteria are granted a preferential subscription right for the purchase of a house. In the case of privately funded houses, the aggregate amount of contributions made to the account must be at least the applicable deposit threshold amount for the location and area of the relevant house (fromW2 million up toW15 million). It is impossible to change the account holder name of a general housing subscription savings account except in the case of inheritance by the death of the original account holder. For information on our deposits in Korean Won based on the principal types of deposit products we offer, see “— Description of Assets and Liabilities — Funding — Deposits.”
The rate of interest payable on our deposit products may vary significantly, depending on average funding costs, the rate of return on our interest-earning assets, prevailing market interest rates among financial institutions and other major financial indicators.
We also offer court deposit services for litigants in Korean courts, which involve providing effectively an escrow service for litigants involved in certain types of legal or other proceedings. Chohung Bank historically was a dominant provider of such services since 1958, and following the acquisition of Chohung Bank, we continue to hold a dominant market share in these services. Such deposits typically carry interest rates lower than the market rates (by approximately 0.5% per annum) and amounted toW6,4435,639 billion,W6,4805,645 billion andW5,6566,015 billion as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, respectively.
The Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of Korea imposes a reserve requirement on Won currency deposits at commercial banks at rates ranging from 0% to 7%, based generally on maturity and the type of deposit instrument. See “— Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Banks — Liquidity.”
The Depositor Protection Act provides for a deposit insurance system under which the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation guarantees repayment of eligible bank deposits to depositors up toW50 million per depositor andW50 million per insured under the defined contribution retirement pension per bank. See “— Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Banks — Deposit Insurance System.”
Retail Banking Services
Overview
We provide retail banking services primarily through Shinhan Bank, and, to a significantly lesser extent, through Jeju Bank, a regional commercial bank. Our retail loans, before allowance for loancredit losses on loans and deferred loan origination costs and fees and excluding credit card receivables, amounted toW104,184134,424 billion as of December 31, 2016.2019.
Retail banking services include mortgage and home equity lending and retail lending as well as demand, savings and fixed deposit-taking, checking account services, electronic banking and automatic teller machines (“ATM”) services, bill paying services, payroll and check-cashing services, currency exchange and wire fund transfer. We believe that providing modern and efficient retail banking services is important to maintaining our public profile and as a source offee-based income. Accordingly, we believe that our retail banking services and products will become increasingly important in the coming years as the domestic banking sector further develops and becomes more complex.
Retail banking has been and will continue to remain one of our core businesses. Our strategy in retail banking is to provide prompt and comprehensive services to retail customers through increased automation and improved customer service, as well as a streamlined branch network focused on sales. The retail segment places an emphasis on targeting high net worthnet-worth individuals.
Retail Lending Activities
We offer various retail loan products, consisting principally of loans to individuals and households. Our retail loan products target different segments of the population with features tailored to each segment’s financial profile and other characteristics, including customer’s occupation, age, loan purpose, collateral requirements and the duration of the customer’s relationship with Shinhan Bank. Our retail loans consist principally of the following:
| • | Mortgage and home equity loans,which |
| • | Other retail loans,which are loans made to customers for any purpose other than mortgage and home equity loans and the terms of which vary based primarily upon the characteristics of the borrower and which are either unsecured or secured, or guaranteed by deposits or by a third party. Other retail loans also include advance loans extended on an unsecured basis to retail borrowers the use of proceeds for which is restricted to financing of home purchases prior to the completion of the construction. |
As of December 31, 2016,2019, our mortgage and home equity loans and other retail loans accounted for 54.0%50.6% and 46.0%49.4% of our total Won-denominated retail loans, (excluding credit card loans), respectively.
For secured loans, including mortgage and home equity loans, our policy is to lend up to 70%40% to 100% of the appraisal value of the collateral, after taking into account the value of any lien or other security interest that has priority over our security interest (other than petty claims). For mortgage and home equity loans, our general policy is to lend up to 45% to 82% of the appraisal value of the collateral, but subject to the maximumloan-to-value ratio,debt-to-income ratio and debt service ratio requirements for mortgage loans implemented by the Government. Theloan-to-value ratio of secured loans, including mortgage and home equity loans, is updated on a monthly basis using the most recent appraisal value of the collateral.collateral, and maximumloan-to-value ratios are further adjusted based on factors such as the location of the secured property, nature and purpose of the loans and level of competition in the market. Since January 11, 2019, maximumloan-to-value ratios are determined and may be adjusted in increments of 1% (as opposed to increments of 5%, which was the case prior to January 11, 2019), allowing us to set more precise and tailored maximumloan-to-value ratios for our secured loans. As of December 31, 2016,2019, theloan-to-value ratio of mortgage and home equity loans of Shinhan Bank was approximately 52.29%49.6%. As of December 31, 2016,2019, substantially all of ourits mortgage and home equity loans were secured by residential property.
Under the administrative instructions of the Financial Supervisory Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service effective August 1, 2014 (which have been extended and amended several times, but have been replaced by the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business and are effective until July 31, 2017)the Detailed Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business reflecting the tightened measures as discussed below), our banking subsidiaries (i) arewere subject to, a limit on when extending mortgage and home equity loans, to the maximumloan-to-value ratio of 70% when extending home mortgage loans; (ii) are required(irrespective of the location of the property, subject to comply with a limit on certain exceptions) and the maximumdebt-to-income ratio of 60% (only in extending home mortgage loans (amounting to more thanW100 million) for the purchaserespect of apartments that are secured by such apartments if they areapartment units located in the greater Seoul metropolitan area, excluding somesubject to certain exceptions).
On January 31, 2018, the existingdebt-to-income requirement was replaced by the newdebt-to-income ratio requirement, which reflects (i) both principal and interest payments on the applicable mortgage and home equity loan and existing mortgage and home equity loans and (ii) interest payments on other loans. The previousdebt-to-income requirement had only reflected (i) both principal and interest payments on the applicable mortgage and home equity loan and (ii) interest payments on existing mortgage and home equity loans.
Since June 2017, the Government led by President MoonJae-in has announced and implemented a series of robust polices aimed at taming speculation and deterring the rise of housing prices including, among others, the designation of “speculative districts” (comprised of fifteen districts in Seoul and Sejong Special Self-Governing City as of February 21, 2020), “overheated speculative districts” (comprised of Seoul, Gwacheon City, Bundang District in Seongnam City, Gwangmyeong City, Hanam City respectively in Gyeonggi Province, Suseong District in Daegu Metropolitan City and Sejong Special Self-Governing City as of February 21, 2020) and “adjustment targeted areas” (comprised of Seoul, 25 cities, districts or other areas in Gyeonggi Province and Sejong Special Self-Governing City as of February 21, 2020) (the “speculative districts”, “overheated speculative districts” and “adjustment targeted areas” are hereinafter referred to as the “regulated areas”), and the application of reducedloan-to-value ratios anddebt-to-income ratios to those buying homes in the regulated areas.
For example, recently, on December 16, 2019, the Government unveiled a tighter set of measures aimed at the housing market. According to these new measures, which became effective from December 17, 2019, no mortgage or home equity loans can be provided to purchase a new home located in any of the regulated areas to a household that already owns two or more housing units. For a household that already owns one housing unit, such as island areas;loans can only be provided under very limited circumstances. Furthermore, the “speculative districts” and (iii)“overheated speculative districts” are further restricted by tighterloan-to-value ratios. If the market value of a home located in any of the “speculative districts” or “overheated speculative districts” being acquired is greater thanW1.5 billion, no mortgage or home equity loans may be provided. For homes located in any of the “speculative districts” or “overheated speculative districts” with a market value equal or less thanW1.5 billion but greater thanW900 million, the loans can only cover 40% of the market value up toW900 million and 20% of any remaining value betweenW1.5 billion andW900 million. In addition to the foregoing restrictions, no mortgage loan applicant buying a home in any of the “speculative districts” or “overheated speculative districts” may incur a loan that will exceed 40% of his/her debt service ratio for homes with market values exceedingW900 million. Furthermore, on February 20, 2020, the Government announced additional countermeasures to curb housing prices in the “adjustment targeted areas”, under which if the market value of a home located in any of the “adjustment targeted areas” being acquired is greater thanW900 million, the loans can only cover 50% of the market value up toW900 million and 30% of any remaining value exceedingW900 million. These renewed measures are expected to lead to a decline in the overall volume of home mortgage loans but may result in an increase in long-term deposit loans required for house rentals and lending to apply greater flexibility in determining the debt-to-income ratio by considering the expected earnings potential. borrowers with high credit profiles.
In addition, the supervising authorities in Korea from time to time issue administrative instructions to Korean banks, which have the effect of regulating the access of borrowers to housing loans and, as such, demand for real estate properties. For example, the Financial Supervisory Service issued administrative instructions to financial institutions to (except in limited circumstances) verify the borrower’s ability to repay based on proof of income prior to making a mortgage and home equity loan regardless of the type or value of the collateral or the location of the property, which has had the effect of practically barring the grant of any new mortgage and home equity loans to borrowers without verifiable income.
Our banking subsidiaries extend mortgage and home equity loans in compliance with the applicable regulations and administrative instructions by the relevant supervising authorities.
The following table sets forth a breakdown of our retail loans.

The total mortgage and home equity loans amounted toW56,23568,074 billion as of December 31, 2016,2019, and as of such date, consisted of amortizing loans (whose principal is repaid by part of the installment payments) in the amount ofW49,26947,676 billion andnon-amortizing loans in the amount ofW6,96620,398 billion. In addition, as of December 31, 2016,2019, we also provided lines of credit in the aggregate outstanding amount ofW1,812915 billion fornon-amortizing loans.
Pricing
The interest rates payable on Shinhan Bank’s retail loans are either periodically adjusted floating rates (based on a base rate determined for three-month,six-month or twelve-month periods derived using an internal transfer price system, which reflects the market cost of funding, as adjusted to account for expenses related to lending and the profit margin of the relevant loan products) or fixed rates that reflect the market cost of funding, as adjusted to account for expenses related to lending and the profit margin. Fixed rate loans, which have maturities of up to 30 years for retail loans and 15 years for corporate loans are offered only on a limited basis and at a premium to floating rate loans. For unsecured loans, which Shinhan Bank provides on a floating or fixed rate basis, interest rates thereon reflect a margin based on, among other things, the borrower’s credit score as determined during its loan approval process. For secured loans, the credit limit is based on the type of collateral, priority with respect to the collateral and theloan-to-value ratio. Shinhan Bank may adjust the pricing of these loans to reflect the borrower’s current and/or expected future contribution to Shinhan Bank’s profitability. The interest rate on Shinhan Bank’s loan products may become adjusted at the time the loan is extended. If a loan is terminatedrepaid within three years following the date of the loan, the borrower is required to pay an early termination
repayment fee, which is typically 0.8%0.7% to 1.4%, depending on types of loans and applicable interest rates, of the outstanding principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest on the loan, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of the remaining days on the loan until maturity and the denominator of which is the number of days comprising the term of the loan or three years, whichever is greater.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank’s three-month,six-month and twelve-month base rates were approximately1.53%, 1.52%, 1.56% and 1.66%1.51%, respectively. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank’s fixed rates for mortgage and home equity loans with a maturity of five years was approximately 4.385%2.85%. Shinhan Bank’s fixed rates for other retail loans with a maturity of one year ranged from 4.29%2.41% to 14.00%, depending on the credit scores of its customers.
As of December 31, 2016, 73.5%2019, 92.4% of Shinhan Bank’s total retail loans were floating rate loans and 26.5%7.6% were fixed rate loans. As of the same date, 64.3%92.9% of Shinhan Bank’s retail loans with maturity of more than one year were floating rate loans and 35.7%7.1% were fixed rate loans.
The interest rate charged to customers by our banking subsidiaries is based, in part, on the “cost of funds index,”index”, or COFIX, which is published by the Korean Federation of Banks. COFIX is computed based on the weighted average interest of select funding products (including time deposits, housing and other installment savings deposits, repos, discounted bills and seniornon-convertible financial debentures) of eight major Korean banks (comprised of Shinhan Bank, Kookmin Bank, Woori Bank, KEB Hana Bank, Nonghyup Bank, Industrial Bank of Korea, Citibank Korea Inc. and Standard Chartered Bank Korea Limited). Each bank then independently determines the interest rate applicable to its respective customers by adding a spread to the COFIX based on the difference between the COFIX and such bank’s general funding costs, administration fees, the customer’s credit score, the maturity of the loan and other customer-specific premiums and discounts based on the customer relationship with such bank. These interest rates are typically adjusted on a monthly basis. In January 2019, the Financial Services Commission announced plans to reflect rates for short term deposits such as demand deposits
when computing the “cost of funds index,” or COFIX, which is expected to result in lower interest rates for household loans compared to the previous COFIX rate.

Small- andMedium-sized Enterprises Banking
Under the Basic Act on Small- andMedium-sized Enterprises (the “SME Basic Act”) and the related Presidential Decree, as amended and effective from February 3, 2015,January 27, 2016, in order to qualify as a small- andmedium-sized enterprise, (i) the enterprise’s total assets at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal year must be less thanW500 billion, (ii) the enterprise must meet the standards prescribed by the Presidential Decree in relation to the average and total annual sales revenues applicable to the type of its main business, and (iii) the enterprise must meet the standards of management independence from ownership as prescribed by the Presidential Decree, includingnon-membership in a conglomerate as defined in the Monopoly Regulations and Fair Trade Act. However, if any entity which was a small- and medium-sized enterprise as defined inPursuant to an amendment to the SME Basic Act, prior to the latest amendment no longer meets such definition following such amendment, such entitywhich will be deemedbecome effective in June 2020, an enterprise shall not qualify as a small- andmedium-sized enterprise for purposes ofif it is incorporated into, or is deemed to be incorporated into a business group subject to disclosure under the SME Basic Act until March 31, 2018. Monopoly Regulations and Fair Trade Act.Non-profit enterprises that satisfy certain requirements prescribed in the SME Basic Act on Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises and its Presidential Decree may qualify as a small- andmedium-sized enterprise. Furthermore, cooperatives and federations of cooperatives as prescribed by the Presidential Decree are deemed as small- andmedium-sized enterprises, effective from April 15, 2014. As of December 31, 2016,2019, we made loans to 254,458307,705 small- andmedium-sized enterprises for an aggregate amount ofW71,75791,162 billion (before allowance for loancredit losses on loans and deferred loan origination costs and fees).
We believe that Shinhan Bank, whose traditional focus has been on small- andmedium-sized enterprises lending, is well-positioned to succeed in the small- andmedium-sized enterprises market in light of its marketing capabilities (which we believe have provided Shinhan Bank with significant customer loyalty) and its prudent risk management practices, including conservative credit rating systems for credit approval. To maintain or increase its market share of small- andmedium-sized enterprises lending, Shinhan Bank:
| • | has accumulated a market-leading expertise and familiarity |
| • | operates a relationship management system to provide customer service that is tailored to |
| • | continues to focus on cross-selling loan products with otherproducts. For example, when Shinhan Bank lends to small- andmedium-sized enterprises, it also explores opportunities to cross-sell retail loans or deposit products to the employees of these enterprises or to provide financial advisory services. |
Large Corporate Banking
Large corporate customers consist primarily of member companies ofchaebolsand financial institutions. Our large corporate loans amounted toW34,13134,466 billion (before allowance for loancredit losses on loans and deferred loan origination costs and fees) as of December 31, 2016.2019. Large corporate customers tend to have better credit profiles than small- andmedium-sized enterprises, and accordingly, Shinhan Bank has expanded its focus on these customers as part of its risk management policy.
Shinhan Bank aims to be aone-stop financial solution provider that also partners with its corporate clients in their corporate expansion and growth endeavors. To that end, Shinhan Bank provides a wide range of corporate
banking services, including investment banking, real estate financing, overseas real estate project financing, large development project financing, infrastructure financing, structured financing, equity investments/venture investments, mergers and acquisitions consulting, securitization and derivatives services, including securities and derivative products and foreign exchange trading. Shinhan Bank, through Shinhan Asia Limited, a subsidiary in Hong Kong, also arranges financing for, and offers consulting services to, Korean companies expanding their business overseas, particularly in Asia.
Electronic Corporate Banking
Shinhan Bank offers to corporate customers aweb-based total cash management service known as “Shinhan Bizbank.” Shinhan Bizbank supports substantially all types of banking transactions ranging from basic transaction history inquiries and fund transfers to opening letters of credit, trade finance, payment management, collection management, sales settlement service, acquisition settlement service,business-to-business settlement service, sweeping, pooling, ERP interface service,host-to-host banking solutions, SWIFT SCORE service and global cash and liquidity management service. In addition, Shinhan Bank provides customers with integrated and advanced access to its financial services through its “Inside Bank” program, which combines Internet banking, capital management services and enterprise resource planning to better serve corporate customers. The Inside Bank program also seeks to provide customized financial services to meet the comprehensive needs of target corporate customers ranging from conglomerates to small enterprises in various industries, with the goal of enhancing convenience to our corporate customers in accessing our financial services as well as assisting them to strategically manage their funds. In line with Shinhan Bank’s efforts to facilitatenon-face-to-face online transactions for corporate transactions, in 2018, Shinhan Bank upgraded its virtual account-based corporate fund management service, known as “Shinhan Damoa Service”, making it available on mobile channels. In addition, Shinhan Bank has made the fund transfers via phone number service (allowing customers to make fund transfers without the recipients’ account number), which was previously only available for personal banking customers, available for corporate banking customers as well. As part of Shinhan Bank’s effort to lower settlement fees for small business owners, in May 2019, Shinhan Bank launched “ZeroPay Biz Shinhan”, an account-based mobile payment service enabling vendors to easily receive payments from customers’ accounts by scanning the vendor’s QR code with a smartphone.
Corporate Lending Activities
Our principal loan products for corporate customers are working capital loans and facilities loans. Working capital loans, which include discounted notes and trade financing, are generally loans used for general working capital purposes. Facilities loans are provided to finance the purchase of equipment and construction of manufacturing plants. As of December 31, 2016,2019, working capital loans and facilities loans amounted toW56,52256,074 billion andW44,07756,534 billion, respectively, representing 56.2%48.2% and 43.8%48.6% of our totalWon-denominated corporate loans. Working capital loans generally have a maturity of one year, but may be extended on an annual basis for an aggregate term of three years in the case of unsecured loans and five years in the case of secured
loans. Facilities loans have a maximum maturity of 1015 years, are typically repaid in semiannual installments per annum and may be entitled to a grace period not exceedingone-third of the loan term with respect to the first repayment; facilities loans with a term of three years or less may be paid in full at maturity.
Loans to corporations may be unsecured or secured by real estate, deposits or guaranty certificates. As of December 31, 2016,2019, secured loans and guaranteed loans (including loans secured by guaranty certificates issued by credit guarantee insurance funds) accounted for 59.2%62.6% and 11.0%12.7%, respectively, of ourWon-denominated loans to small- andmedium-sized enterprises. As of December 31, 2016, 49.0%2019, 54.9% of the corporate loans were secured by real estate.
When evaluating whether to extend loans to corporate customers, Shinhan Bank reviews their creditworthiness, credit score, value of any collateral and/or third party guarantee. The value of collateral is
computed using a formula that takes into account the appraised value of the collateral, any prior liens or other claims against the collateral and an adjustment factor based on a number of considerations including, with respect to property, the average value of any nearby property sold in a court-supervised auction during the previous year. Shinhan Bank revalues collateral when a secured loan is renewed or if a trigger event occurs with respect to the loan in question.
Pricing
Shinhan Bank determines the price for its corporate loan products based principally on their respective cost of funding and the expected loss rate based on the borrower’s credit risk. As of December 31, 2016, 42.2%2019, 54.4% of Shinhan Bank’s corporate loans with outstanding maturities of one year or more had variable interest rates as determined by the applicable market rates.
More specifically, interest rates on Shinhan Bank’s corporate loans are generally determined as follows:
Interest rate = (Shinhan Bank’s periodic market floating rateor reference rate)plus transaction costplus credit spreadplus risk premiumplus or minus discretionary adjustment.
Depending on the market condition and the agreement with the borrower, Shinhan Bank may use either its periodic market floating rate or the reference rate as the base rate in determining the interest rate for the borrower. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank’s periodic market floating rates (which are based on a base rate determined for a three-month,six-month,one-year,two-year, three-year or five-year period, as applicable, as derived using Shinhan Bank’s market rate system) were 1.53%1.52% for three months, 1.57%1.51% for six months, 1.67%1.51% for one year, 1.76%1.52% for two years, 1.85%1.58% for three years and 2.04%1.67% for five years. As of the same date, Shinhan Bank’s reference rate was 5.00%4.75%. The reference rate refers to the base lending rate used by Shinhan Bank and is determined annually by Shinhan Bank’s Asset & Liability Management Committee based on, among others, Shinhan Bank’s funding costs, cost efficiency ratio and discretionary margin.
Transaction cost reflects the standardized transaction cost assigned to each loan product and other miscellaneous costs, including contributions to the Credit Guarantee Fund, and education taxes. The Credit Guarantee Fund is a statutorily created entity that provides credit guarantees to loans made by commercial banks and is funded by mandatory contributions from commercial banks in the amount of approximately 0.36%0.23% of all loans (excluding certain loans such as facility loans) made by them.
The credit spread is added to the periodic floating rate to reflect the expected loss based on the borrower’s credit rating and the value of any collateral or payment guarantee. In addition, Shinhan Bank adds a risk premium which takes into account the potential of unexpected loss that may exceed the expected loss from the credit rating assigned to a particular borrower.
A discretionary adjustment rate is added or subtracted to reflect the borrower’s current and/or future contribution to Shinhan Bank’s profitability. If additional credit is provided by way of a guarantee, the
adjustment rate is subtracted to reflect such change in the credit spread. In addition, depending on the price and other terms set by competing banks for similar borrowers, Shinhan Bank may reduce the interest rate to compete more effectively with other banks.
International Business
Shinhan Bank also engages in treasury and investment activities in international capital markets, principally including foreign currency-denominated securities trading, foreign exchange trading and services, trade-related financial services, international factoring services and foreign banking operations through its overseas branches and subsidiaries. Shinhansubsidiaries.Shinhan Bank aims to become a leading bank in Asia and expand its international business by focusing on further bolstering its overseas network, localizing its overseas operations and diversifying its product offerings, particularly in terms of asset management, in order to meet the various financing needs of its current and potential customers overseas.

To secure stable long-term funds, Shinhan Bank uses fixed and floating rate notes, debentures, structured financing and other advanced funding methods. As for overseas funding, Shinhan Bank closely monitors the feasibility of raising funds in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, such as the Japanese Yen and the Euro. In addition, Shinhan Bank makes call loans and borrows call money in the short-term money market. Call loans are short-term lending among banks and financial institutions in either Korean Won or foreign currencies with a minimum transaction amount ofW100 million and maturities of typically one day.

Such derivative operations generally focus on addressing the needs of Shinhan Bank’s corporate clients to enter into derivatives contracts to hedge their risk exposure and entering intoback-to-back derivatives to hedge Shinhan Bank’s risk exposure that results from such client contracts.
Shinhan Bank also enters into derivative contracts to hedge the interest rate and foreign currency risk exposures that arise from its own assets and liabilities. In addition, to a limited extent, Shinhan Bank engages in the proprietary trading of derivatives within its regulated open position limits. See “— Description of Assets and Liabilities — Derivatives.”
Trust Account Management Services
Overview
Shinhan Bank’s trust account management services involve management of trust accounts, primarily in the form of money trusts. Trust account customers are typically individuals seeking higher rates of return than those offered by bank account deposits. Because deposit reserve requirements do not apply to deposits held in trust accounts as opposed to deposits held in bank accounts, and regulations governing trust accounts tend to be less strict, Shinhan Bank is generally able to offer higher rates of return on trust account products than on bank deposit products. However, in recent years, due to the ongoing low interest environment, Shinhan Bank has not been able to offer attractive rates of return on its trust account products.
Trust account products generally require higher minimum deposit amounts than those required by comparable bank account deposit products. Unlike bank deposit products, deposits in trust accounts are invested primarily in securities (consistingsecurities(consisting principally of debt securities and beneficiary certificate for real estate financing)and, to a lesser extent, in loans, as the relative shortage of funding sources require that trust accounts be invested in a higher percentage of liquid assets.
Under the Banking Act, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and the Trust Act, assets in trust accounts are required to be segregated from other assets of the trustee bank and are unavailable to satisfy the claims of the depositors or other creditors of such bank. Accordingly, trust accounts that are not guaranteed as to principal (or as to both principal and interest) are accounted for and reported separately from the bank accounts. See “— Supervision and Regulation.” Trust accounts are regulated by the Trust Act and the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, and most national commercial banks offer similar trust account products. Shinhan Bank earns income from trust account management services, which is recorded as net trust management fees.
As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank had total trust assets ofW30,98658,536 billion,W37,30476,161 billion andW45,05893,127 billion, respectively, comprised principally of securities investments ofW6,23916,870 billion,W7,68822,479 billion andW10,88523,902 billion respectively; real property investments ofW5,91312,053 billion,W7,57614,154 billion andW8,91413,493 billion, respectively; and loans with an aggregate principal amount ofW434469 billion,W454528 billion andW472415 billion, respectively. Securities investments consisted of corporate bonds, government-related bonds and other securities, primarily commercial paper. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, debt securities accounted for 18.9%27.3%, 19.2%28.5% and 22.9%24.9%, respectively, and equity securities constituted 1.3%1.5%, 1.4%1.1% and 1.3%0.8%, respectively, of Shinhan Bank’s total trust assets. Loans made by trust accounts are similar in type to those made by bank accounts, except that they are made only in Korean Won. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016, approximately 57.9%2019, 57.1%, 53.3%57.8% and 52.1%62.7%, respectively, of the amount of loans from the trust accounts were collateralized or guaranteed. In making investment from funds received for each trust account, each trust product maintains investment guidelines applicable to each such product which set forth, among other things, company-, industry- and security-specific limitations.
Trust Products
In Korea, trust products typically take the form of money trusts, which are discretionary trusts over which (except in the case of a specified money trust) the trustees have investment discretion subject to applicable law and is commingled and managed jointly for each type of trust account. The specified money trusts are established on behalf of customers who give specific directions as to how their trust assets should be invested.
Money trusts managed by Shinhan Bank’s trust account business amounted toW19,59137,700 billion,W24,09344,290 billion andW29,47649,695 billion as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, respectively.
Shinhan Bank offers variable rate trust products through its retail branch network. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank’s variable rate trust accounts amounted toW16,12133,720 billion,W20,44340,270 billion
andW25,63445,627 billion, respectively, of which principal guaranteed variable rate trust accounts amounted toW3,4693,979 billion,W3,6494,019 billion andW3,8414,067 billion, respectively. Variable rate trust accounts offer their holders variable rates of return on the principal amount of the deposits in the trust accounts and do not offer a guaranteed return on the principal of deposits, except in the limited cases of principal guaranteed variable rate trust accounts, for which payment of the principal amount is guaranteed. Shinhan Bank charges a lump sum or a fixed percentage of the assets held in such trusts as a management fee, and, depending on the trust products, is also entitled to additional fees in the event of early termination of the trusts by the customer. Korean banks, including Shinhan Bank, are currently allowed to guarantee the principal of the following types of variable rate trust account products: (i) existing individual pension trusts, (ii) new individual pension trusts, (iii) existing retirement pension trusts, (iv) new retirement pension trusts, (v) pension trusts and (vi) employee retirement benefit trusts. Shinhantrusts.Shinhan Bank also offers an insignificant amount of guaranteed fixed rate trust products (amounting toW1.0 billion,W1.0 billion andW1.0 billion as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, respectively), which provide to its holders a guaranteed return of the principal as well as a guaranteed fixed rate of return. These products are carry-overs from past offerings, and Shinhan Bank no longer offers guaranteed fixed rate trust products.
Credit Card Services
Products and Services
We currently provide our credit card services principally through our credit card subsidiary, Shinhan Card, and to a limited extent, Jeju Bank.
Shinhan Card offers a wide range of credit card and other services, principally consisting of the following:
| • | credit card services, which involve providing cardholders with credit up to a preset limit to purchase products and services. Repayment for credit card purchases may be made either (i) on alump-sum basis, namely, in full at the end of a monthly billing cycle or (ii) on a revolving basis subject to a minimum monthly payment. The minimum monthly payment for holders of credit cards issued before December 30, 2014 is the |
| • | cash advances, which enable the cardholders to withdraw cash subject to a preset limit from an ATM |
| • | installment purchases, which provide customers with an option to purchase products and services from select merchants on an installment basis for which repayments must be made in equal amounts over a |
fixed term generally ranging from two |
| • | card loans, which enable cardholders to receive, up to a preset limit, a loan which is generally unsecured. Repayment of card loans is made generally by (i) repaying principal and interest in equal amounts on an installment basis over a fixed term of two to 36 months, (ii) repaying the principal and interest amounts in full at maturity, or (iii) making interest-only payments during the initial grace period of either three months or six months and repaying the principal and interest amounts on a |
monthly installment basis over the remaining period of typically two to 36 months. Currently, the outstanding card loan balances generally accrue interest at the effective annual rates of approximately 6.16% to |
Shinhan Card derives revenues from annual membership fees paid by credit cardholders, interest charged on credit card balances, fees and interest charged on cash advances and card loans, interest charged on late and deferred payments and merchant fees paid by retail and service establishments. Merchant fees and interest on cash advances constitute the largest source of revenue.
The annual membership fees for credit cards vary depending on the type of credit card and the benefits offered thereunder. For standard credit cards and most of the affinity andco-branded cards, Shinhan Card charges an annual membership fee ranging fromW2,000 toW1,000,000 per credit card, depending on the type of the card and the cardholder profile. Certain government affinity cards have no annual membership fee. If Shinhan Card’s customers make cash advances using ATMs of a financial institution other than Shinhan Card, Shinhan Card also charges a usage fee for such cash advances in an amount equivalent to the fees charged by such financial institution for the use of its ATM plus costs to cover Shinhan Card’s related administration expenses.
Any accounts that are unpaid when due are deemed to be delinquent accounts, for which Shinhan Card levies a late charge in lieu of the interest rates applicable prior to default. The late charge rate currently ranges from 23.0%8.4% to 27.9%24.0% per annum. Since the first half of 2018, instead of levying a late charge in lieu of interest rates prior to default, Shinhan Card maintained the interest rates prior to default but added a late charge rate of 3% in addition to the interest rates prior to default.
Merchant discount fees, which are processing fees Shinhan Card charges to merchants, can be up to the regulatory limit of 2.5%2.3% of the purchased amount depending on the merchant used, with the average charge for credit cards being 1.71%1.54% in 2016.2019. For small- andmedium-sized merchants, the applicable regulations impose reduced fee rates of 0.8% (in the case of merchants with annual sales ofW200300 million or less) and 1.3% (in the case of merchants with annual sales of more thanW200300 million and up toW300500 million), respectively, of the purchased amount.
Although making payments on a revolving basis is more common in many other countries, this payment method is still in its early stages of development in Korea. Cardholders in Korea are generally required to repay their purchases within approximately 14 to 44 days of purchase depending on their payment cycle, except in the case of installment purchases where the repayment term is typically three to six months.sixmonths. Accounts that remain unpaid after this period are deemed to be delinquent, and Shinhan Card levies late charges on and closely monitors such accounts. For purchases made on an installment basis, Shinhan Card charges interest on unpaid amounts at rates that vary according to the terms of repayment.
Cardholders are required to settle their outstanding balances in accordance with the terms of the credit cards they hold. Cardholders are required to select the monthly settlement date when they open the credit card account and may subsequently change the settlement date but no more than once every two months.60 days. Settlement dates at or around the end of each month are the most popular since salaries are typically paid at the end of the month.
In addition to credit card services, Shinhan Card also offers check cards, which are similar to debit cards in the United States and many other countries, to retail and corporate customers. A check card can be used at any of
the merchants that accept credit cards issued by Shinhan Card and the amount charged to a check card is directly debited from the cardholder’s designated bank account. Check cards have a low risk of default and involve minimal funding costs. Although Shinhan Card does not charge annual membership fees on check cards, merchants are charged fees on the amount purchased using check cards at a rate between 0.50% and 2.50%, depending on the type of business, which is lower than the corresponding fee charged for credit card use.
Recently, the Financial Services Commission has allowed certain financial institutions, including Shinhan Card, to test innovative financial services. Shinhan Card obtained approval from the Financial Services Commission to test five business:(i) peer-to-peer credit card payment services whereby individuals can make credit card payments to others directly, without a third-party platform, (ii) a credit scoring system that evaluates individual business owners’ credit standing based on their revenue records and history of credit card use, (iii) small-scale investment using credit cards, (iv) face recognition system for payments and (v) monthly rent payments using credit cards. We expect to test the feasibility and potential of these businesses beginning in 2020.

Initial financing fees charged in connection with installment finance products for new cars, however, were abolished effective March 2, 2013 pursuant to the Financial Consumer Report (Automobile Financings) issued by the Financial Supervisory Service on January 29, 2013. Shinhan Card has installment financing arrangements with over 10,000 merchants in Korea, including major car dealers, manufacturers and large retailers with nationwide networks, such as electronics goods stores.
Shinhan Card promptly processes installment financing applications and, based on the extensive credit information it possesses or can access, it is able to offer flexible installment payment terms tailored to individual needs of the customers. Shinhan Card also devotes significant efforts to developing and maintaining its relationships with merchants, which are the most important source of referrals for installment finance customers. Shinhan Card makes prompt payments to merchants for goods purchased by the installment finance customers.

With respect to brokerage services, in the face of intense competition in the domestic brokerage industry, Shinhan Investment primarily focuses on strengthening profitability through service differentiation and efficient management of its distribution network rather than enlarging its market share indiscriminately through lowering fees and commissions. Shinhan Investment’s service differentiation efforts include offering its customers opportunities to purchase stocks in a wide range of countries (currently more than 28 countries), leveraging synergy opportunities afforded by affiliation with other Shinhan entities such as offering brokerage accounts maintained at Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Capital.

To a limited extent, Shinhan Investment also engages in private equity investments through formation of private equity funds by soliciting investors on a private placement basis.

stake in Nam An Securities (subsequently launched as Shinhan Securities Vietnam Co., Ltd.), a Vietnamese securities services firm that provides investment banking and asset management services. In addition, in order to seizecapitalize on the rapid growth opportunity and as part of its expansion efforts in Indonesia, Shinhan Investment acquired a 99% stake in PT Makinta Securities, an Indonesian investment banking firm in December 2015July 2016 and subsequently launched it as an overseas subsidiary offering investment banking and brokerage services under the name PT Shinhan Sekuritas Indonesia in December 2016. To further expand and stabilize our global businesses, we made further capital investments totaling US$62 million in December 2017 in our subsidiaries located in Hong Kong, New York, Vietnam and Indonesia.In 2018, we acquired PT Archipelago Asset Management, the first acquisition of an Indonesian asset management firm by a Korean financial group, which we believe will strengthen our business portfolio in Indonesia and enhance our competitiveness in the Asian financial markets.
Life Insurance Services
We provide life insurance products and services primarily through Shinhan Life Insurance and Orange Life Insurance. Shinhan Life Insurance provides itsand Orange Life Insurance provide services through diversified distribution channels consisting of financial planners, telemarketers, agency marketers and bancassurance specialists.

In 2017, we expect the life insurance industry to continue to be adversely affected by recent unfavorable changes in applicable regulations, such as the lowering of the cap on deferral of expenses incurred in connection with new insurance contracts, which regulations were implemented in 2013, and to the extent the low interest rate environment persists, we expect ShinhanOrange Life Insurance to experience limited growth, if any, inhad total assets ofW31,455 billion,W32,744 billion andW32,841 billion as of December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, and net profit.

Banking Service Channels
Our banking services are primarily provided through an extensive branch network, specializing in retail and corporate banking services, as complemented by self-service terminals and electronic banking, as well as an overseas services network.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank’s branch network in Korea comprised of 871876 service centers, consisting of our headquarters, 675673 retail banking service centers, nine13 large corporate banking service centers, primarily designed to serve large51 corporate customersbanking services centers and 187139 hybrid banking branches designed to serve retail as well as small-businesssmall-
business corporate customers. Shinhan Bank’s banking branches are designed to provideone-stop banking services tailored to their respective target customers. Recently, Shinhan Bank has been actively adopting digital technology to improve operational efficiency of its banking service channels. For example, Shinhan Bank introduced digital kiosks to banking branches, established ‘Paperless Banking’ by replacing paper applications with electronic documents, implemented a “robotic process automation system” for the automation of certain tasks and processes and increased the volume of client communications throughnon-face-to-face platforms.
Retail Banking Channels
In Korea, many retail transactions are conducted in cash or with credit cards, and conventional checking accounts are generally not offered or used as widely as in other countries such as the United States. An extensive retail branch network has traditionally played an important role as the main platform for a wide range of banking transactions. However, a growing number of customers are turning to other service channels to meet their banking needs, such as Internet banking, mobile banking and other forms ofnon-face-to-face platforms. In response to such changes, Shinhan Bank has recently been focused on reorganizing its retail branch network, including shifting, merger or closure of certain branches that are considered redundant.
Recently, one of the key initiatives at Shinhan Bank has been to target high net worthnet-worth individuals through private banking. Our private banking services are provided principally through private banking relationship managers who, within target customer groups, assist clients in developing individual investment strategies. We believe that such relationship managers help us foster enduring relationships with our clients. Private banking customers also have access to Shinhan Bank’s retail branch network and other general banking products Shinhan Bank offers through its retail banking operations.
Corporate Banking Channels
Shinhan Bank currently provides corporate banking services through corporate banking service centers primarily designed to serve large corporate customers and hybrid banking branches designed to serve retail as well as small-business corporate customers. Small- andmedium-sized enterprises have traditionally been Shinhan Bank’s core corporate customers and we plan to continue to maintain Shinhan Bank’s strengthvis-à-vis these customers.
Self-Service Terminals
In order to complement its banking branch network, Shinhan Bank maintains an extensive network of automated banking machines, which are located in branches and in unmanned outlets. These automated banking machines consist of ATMs, cash dispensers and passbook printers. In December 2015, Shinhan Bank introduced digital kiosks, a new generation of automated self-service machines called “digital kiosks,” which are currently being test-run at 17 branches in the Seoul metropolitan area. These digital kiosks featurearea featuring biometric authentication technology and canthe ability to perform a wide range of services that are unavailablewere not available through traditional ATMs, such as opening new accounts, issuance of debit and check cards, foreign currency exchange and overseas remittance of foreign currency. These digital kiosks are currently being operated at 44 branches in the Seoul metropolitan area. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank had 6,7275,773 ATMs, seven13 cash dispensers and 2448 digital kiosks. Shinhan Bank has actively promoted the use of these distribution outlets in order to provide convenient service to customers, as well as to maximize the marketing and sales functions at the branch level, reduce employee costs and improve profitability. In 2016,2019, automated banking machine transactions accounted for a substantial portion of total deposit and withdrawal transactions of Shinhan Bank in terms of the number of transactions and fee revenue generated, respectively.
Electronic Banking
Shinhan Bank’s Internet banking services are more comprehensive than those available at the counter, including such services as 24 hour account balance posting, real-time account transfer, overseas remittance and
loan requests. Shinhan Bank also offers mobile banking services in order to enable customers to make speedy, convenient and secure banking transactions using mobile phones. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank had approximately 16,178,00020,173,251 subscribers to its Internet banking services and approximately 11,637,00015,222,356 users of its smart banking apps, representing an increase of 5.6%9.8% and 13.8%8.8%, respectively, compared to December 31, 2015.2018. Shinhan Bank continues to experience a rise in the number of online and mobile banking users. Shinhan Bank began offering online and mobile banking initially with a view to saving costs rather than increasing revenues, but is currently exploring ways to leverage the possibility of increase revenues through online and mobile banking given that these services offer customers with easier and more convenient access to banking services without limitations of time and space as well as offer tailored and customized service to each customer. In December 2015,September 2017, Shinhan Bank launched “Sunny Bank,“Shinhan Tong,” a new mobile and web based platform that is more user friendly and easier to access than the previous platform. Sunny Bankplatforms and does not require additional applications or certifications. Shinhan Tong utilizes mobile identification andnon-face-to-face identity authentication technology, which allows users to open new bank accounts, apply for loansexchange currencies and use other services such as currency exchange and remittancecredit card application services through the Sunny Bank mobile application without having to visit a physical bank branch. In February 2018, Shinhan Bank launched “SOL”, a new mobile banking application integrating Shinhan Bank’s six previously existing mobile applications such as the Shinhan S Bank and Sunny Bank applications. SOL is the cumulation of Shinhan Bank’s efforts to provide a customer oriented and user friendly mobile banking platform and features, among others,easy-to-use biometric andnon-face-to-face identity authentication technology. In addition to innovative features allowing customers to withdraw from their accounts at other banks using Shinhan Bank’s ATMs and transfer funds with minimal time and effort (for example, with no need to log in or insert account numbers), Shinhan Bank began offering open banking service in October 2019, allowing customers to access accounts, products and services across multiple banks using only SOL. In November 2019, Shinhan Bank also launched “SOL Global”, a mobile banking application for foreigners, allowing foreign customers to use open banking and various other financial services. Shinhan Bank continues to expand the scope of its mobile banking services by providing innovative offerings, including “SOL Land”, a mobile application providing information on real estate prices and loan limits and “SOL Trip”, a mobile application providing travel-related services such as foreign currency exchange and travel insurance services.

Currently, our overseas subsidiaries and branches are primarily engaged in trade financing and local currency funding for Korean companies and Korean nationals in the overseas markets, as well as providing foreign exchange services in conjunction with Shinhan Bank’s headquarters.

Inissuers.In the future, as part of our globalization efforts, we plan to expand our coverage of local customers in the overseas markets by providing a wider range of services in retail and corporate banking, and to that end, we have increasingly established subsidiaries in lieu of branches in select markets and in 2011 merged two of our Vietnam banking subsidiaries in order to enhance our presence and enable greater flexibility in its service offerings in these markets. We plan to maintain our focus on organic growth, while we may selectively pursue acquisitions in markets where it is difficult to obtain local banking licenses through greenfield entry. In furtherance of this objective, Shinhan Bank acquired a 98.01% stake in Bank Metro Express and a 100% stake in Centratama Nasional Bank, two banks in Indonesia, in November 2015 and December 2016, respectively. The Bank completed the merger of the two banks in December 2016. The Bank also opened additional branches in Australia, Myanmar and India in the second half of 2016.

In 2017, Shinhan Bank became the first Korean Bank to obtain a license to set up a local subsidiary in Mexico and started local business in Mexico in March 2018. We plan to continue our efforts to expand our overseas banking service network and global operations.
Credit Card Distribution Channels
Shinhan Card primarily uses threefour distribution channels to attract new credit card customers: (i) the banking and credit card branch network, (ii) sales agents, and (iii) business partnerships and affiliations with vendors.vendors and (iv) digital platforms such as Shinhan PayFAN.
The branch network for our credit card operations consisted of 871 branches876branches as of December 31, 2016 of2019of Shinhan Bank and 2223 card sales branches of Shinhan Card. The use of the established distribution network of Shinhan Bank is part of the group-wide cross-selling efforts of selling credit card products to existing banking customers. In 2016,2019, the number of new cardholders acquired through our banking distribution network accounted for approximately 22.4%29.0% of the total number of new cardholders. We believe that the banking distribution network will continue to provide a stable andlow-cost venue for acquiring high-quality credit cardholders.
The sales agents represented the most significant source of Shinhan Card’s new cardholders in 2016,2019, and the number of new cardholders acquired through sales agents accounted for approximately 51.3%37.7% of the total number of Shinhan Card’s new cardholders in 2016.2019.

These sales agents assist prospective customers with the application process and customer service. Compensation of these sales agents is generally tied to the transaction volume of the customers introduced by them, and we believe this system helps to enhance profitability.
As a way of acquiring new cardholders, Shinhan Card also has business partnership and affiliation arrangements with a number of vendors, including gas stations, major retailers, airlines and telecommunication and Internet service providers.

In March 2016, to accelerate our global business expansion, we established Shinhan Microfinance, a local subsidiary in Myanmar. Shinhan Microfinance obtained its microfinance business license in July 2016 and launched operations in September 2016. Since then, it has expanded its business operations by diversifying the range of microfinance product offerings and expanding its sales network. In 2017, it is expected2020, Shinhan Microfinance looks to increase efficiency through new branch operational strategies and continue to seek long term growth opportunities.
In January 2018, Shinhan Card acquired Prudential Vietnam Finance Company Limited in order to gain a stronger presence in Vietnam and increase synergy with Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Investment’s Vietnam operations. In July 2019, Shinhan Card changed its legal name into Shinhan Vietnam Finance Company Ltd. (“Shinhan Vietnam Finance”). Utilizing its relatively lower funding cost resulting from cooperation with other affiliates in Vietnam such as Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Investment, Shinhan Vietnam Finance was able to expand its asset base, reaching total assets of US$336 million as of December 31, 2019. The State Bank of Vietnam recently introduced Circular 18, which amends the regulation on consumer lending activities in Circular 43 and is aimed at improving soundness of Vietnam’s consumer finance industry and facilitating a transition towards a cashless society by regulating the proportion of direct disbursements (for example, cash loans) to the total outstanding loans. According to the amendment, the rate of total consumer loans with direct disbursements to total consumer credit balance should gradually be decreased to 30% by 2024. In order to efficiently cope with the new regulatory changes, in 2020, Shinhan Vietnam Finance plans to diversify its business operations from Yangonofferings to nearby Bagoinclude, among others, car loans and installment financing and also leverage Shinhan Card’s digitalization capabilities to increase efficiency and provide customers with a continued focus on microfinancing.innovative services.
Securities Brokerage Distribution Channels
Our securities brokerage services are conducted principally through Shinhan Investment. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Investment had 109126 service centers nationwide, and four overseas subsidiaries based in Hong Kong, New York, ,VietnamVietnam and Indonesia to service our corporate customers.
Approximately 50%63% of our brokerage branches are located in the Seoul metropolitan area with a focus on attracting high net worthnet-worth individual customers as well as enhancing synergy with our retail and corporate banking branch network. We plan to continue to explore new business opportunities, particularly in the corporate customer segment, through further cooperation between Shinhan Investment and Shinhan Bank.
Insurance Sales and Distribution Channels
We sell and provide our insurance services primarily through Shinhan Life Insurance and Orange Life Insurance. Both Shinhan Life Insurance and Orange Life Insurance, in addition to distributing bancassurance products through our bank branches, also distributesdistribute a wide range of life insurance products through itstheir own branch network, an agency network of financial planners and telemarketers, as well as through the Internet. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Life Insurance and Orange Life Insurance had 186123 and 106 branches and 107 and 3 customer support centers.centers, respectively. These branches are staffed by financial planners, telemarketers, agent
marketers and bancassurance to meet the various needs of our insurance and lending customers.lendingcustomers. Our group-wide customer support centers arrange for policy loans (namely loans secured by the cash surrender value of the underlying insurance policy) for our insurance customers and, to a limited extent, other loans to other customers, and also handle insurance payments.
Information Technology
We dedicate substantial resources to maintaining a sophisticated information technology system to support our operations management and provide high quality customer service. Our information and technology system is operated at a group-wide level based on comprehensive group-wide information collection and processing. We also operate a single group-wide enterprise information technology system known as “enterprise data warehouse” for customer relations management capabilities, risk management systems and data processing. We continually upgrade our group-wide information technology system in order to apply thebest-in-class technology to our risk management systems to reflect the changes in our business environment as well as enhance differentiation from our competitors.
In 2013, we completed the construction of the IntegratedShinhan Data Center, which is responsible for comprehensive management of information technology systems for our subsidiaries on a group-wide basis. This center ensures a stable use of a central information processing facilities for at least 15 years and is designed to maximize operational and cost efficiency as well as enhance information security by combining the various data centers previously used by our subsidiaries. All of our subsidiaries have completed relocation ofrelocated their information management capabilities to this center by the first half ofin 2014.
In order to enhance security and trustworthiness of the financial services provided by us, we continually seek to enhance a group-wide set of standards for information security and upgradingupgrade the related systems. In 2008, we established group-wide information systems and policies, which have since been continually updated and upgraded. In 2014,2017, we further upgraded the group-wide information security control tower to abest-in-class level and replaced most of our internal information security staff with highly qualified outside experts in order to reinforce our security defense capabilities in the event of cyber breaches. In addition, we have newly established a team within our group to provide specialized data protection and related support services to our smaller operating subsidiaries, and we take active measures to preemptively forestall any security breaches through mock trials.
At the subsidiary level, we also continue to upgrade the information technology systemsinfrastructure and services for each of our subsidiaries to enhance the quality of our customer service specific to such subsidiary and thereby bolster their respective competitiveness, including with respect to electronic and mobile banking, (including by means of smartphones), online consultation, expanded sales services and customized informational services. In addition, we have recently strengthened our indirect service channels through a major upgrade of the corporate online banking services and expansion of mobile phone-based product offerings and sales and service networks, such as the launch of Shinhan Bank’s banking application SOL and upgrades to Shinhan Investment’s Shinhan iAlpha application system, in light of the growing base of customers who increasingly access financial services through their mobile phones. We also established in April 2015 a new credit evaluation system with enhanced precision in assessing the creditworthiness of our corporate customers, which has enabled us to manage our credit risk more effectively. On a group-wide level, we are enhancing the efficiency of the information technology operations of our subsidiaries through cloud computing. Furthermore, we have expanded, and will continue to expand, our information technology systems to support the sales and operational capabilities of our overseas subsidiaries and branches through a global customer management system as well as provide country-specific financial services.
The information technology system for each of our subsidiaries is currently backed up on a real-time basis. In 2014, we converted thepre-existing data center to aback-up and disaster recovery center for all our subsidiaries’ operations in order to provide customer services in a continued seamless manner even in the case of an interruption at Shinhan Data Center. We believe that our centralizedback-up systems, including our databack-up centers and disaster recovery centers, enable more efficientback-up at a higher level of security.
Competition
Competition in the Korean financial services industry is, and is likely to remain, intense, including as a result of the sustained low interest rate environment (which narrows opportunities to make profit based on the
spread between lending rates and funding rates), the continuing sluggishness in the general economy, the growing maturation and saturation of the industry as a whole, the entry of new market participants and deregulation, among others.
In the banking sector, Shinhan Bank competes principally with other national commercial banks in Korea, but also faces competition from a number of additional banking institutions, including branches and subsidiaries of foreign banks operating in Korea, regional banks, Internet-only banks, government-owned development banks and Korea’s specialized banks, such as Korea Development Bank, the Industrial Bank of Korea and the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives, as well as various other types of financial service providers, including savings institutions (such as mutual savings and finance companies, credit unions and credit cooperatives), investment companies (such as securities brokerage firms, merchant banking corporations and asset management companies) and life insurance companies. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Korea had six major nationwide domestic commercial banks (including Citibank Korea Inc. and Standard Chartered Bank Korea Limited, both of which are domestic commercial banks acquired by global financial institutions), six regional commercial banks, two Internet-only banks and branches and subsidiaries of 4236 foreign banks. Foreign financial institutions, many of which have greater experiences and resources than we do, may continue to enter the Korean market and compete with us in providing financial products and services either by themselves or in partnership with existing Korean financial institutions.
In the small- andmedium-sized enterprise and retail banking segments, which have been Shinhan Bank’s traditional core businesses, competition is expected to increase further. In recent years, Korean banks, including Shinhan Bank, have increasingly focused on stable asset growth based on quality credit, such as corporate borrowers with high credit ratings, loans to SOHO with high levels of collateralization, and mortgage and home equity loans within the limits of the prescribedloan-to-value ratios anddebt-to-income ratios. This common shift in focus toward stable growth based on less risky assets has intensified competition as banks compete for the same limited pool of quality credit by engaging in price competition or by other means although Shinhan Bank has traditionally focused, and will continue to focus, on enhancing profitability rather than increasing asset size or market share, and has avoided, to the extent practicable, engaging in price competition by way of lowering lending rates. In addition, such competition may result in lower net interest margin and reduced overall profitability, especially if the low interest rate environment were to continue for a significant period of time. Therefore,Shinhan Bank’s net interest margin (on a separate basis) declined slightly to 1.54% in 2019 from 1.62% in 2018 due to, at least partly, decreases in base interest rate by the Bank of Korea from 1.75% to 1.50% in July 2019 and from 1.50% to 1.25% in October 2019 and may decline further as the Bank of Korea has reduced the base interest rate from 1.25% to 0.75% in March 2020 and if the base interest rate is decreased again during 2020. Even if interest rates were to increase, the effect on Shinhan Bank’s results of operations may not be as beneficial as expected, or at all, due to factors such as increased volatility of market interest rates and tighter regulations regarding SOHO loans, including the implementation of additional credit review guidelines for individual businesses. Further, if competing financial institutions seek to expand market share by lowering their lending rates, Shinhan Bank may suffer customer loss, especially among customers who select their lenders principally on the basis of lending rates. In response thereto or for other strategic reasons, Shinhan Bank may subsequently lower its lending rates to stay competitive, which could lead to a further decrease in its net interest margins and outweigh any potential positive impact on the net interest margin from a general rise in market interest rates. Any future decline in Shinhan Bank’s customer base or its net interest margins could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
In the credit card sector, Shinhan Card competes principally with existing “monoline” credit card companies, credit card divisions of commercial banks, consumer finance companies, other financial institutions and, recently, credit card service providers allied with mobile telecommunications service providers in Korea. Competition has been historically intense in this sector and the market has shown signs of saturation as existing and new credit card service providers make significant investments and engage in aggressive marketing campaigns and promotions to acquire new customers and target customers with high credit quality. While competition has subsided somewhat recently due to stricter government regulations, such as curbs on excessive
marketing expenses, competition remains intense and credit card issuers may continue to compete with Shinhan Card for customers by offering lower interest rates and fees, higher credit limits, more attractive promotions and incentives and alternative products such as phone cards,credit card reward points, gift cards andlow-interest consumer loan products. As a result, Shinhan Card may lose customers or service opportunities to competing credit card issuers and/or incur
higher marketing expenses. In addition,Also, over the years, the Government has implemented regulations lowering certain merchant fees chargeable by credit card companies. In 2012, the Government adopted in 2012regulations mandating lower merchant fees chargeable to small- andmedium-sized enterprises, (which are subject to revision every three years) and the Government guidelines issued in 2013 suggesting lower standard interest rates for cash advances and card loans have reduced, and are likely to continue to limit, the revenues of credit card companies, including Shinhan Card. Beginningbeginning January 31, 2016, a further reduction in the merchant fees chargeable to small- andmedium-sized enterprises went into effect, placingeffect. The Enforcement Decree of the Specialized Credit Finance Business Act was amended in July 2017 and January 2019 to further expand the range of small- andmedium-sized enterprises subject to lower merchant fees, and additional amendments to regulations requiring further downward pressureadjustments to merchant fees may come into force in the future. For further details on Shinhan Card’s resultsthe Government’s regulations on merchant fees chargeable by credit card companies, See “Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Credit Card Business — Future changes in market conditions as well as other factors, such as stricter regulation, may lead to reduced revenues and deterioration in the asset quality of operations for 2016 and beyond.credit card receivables.” In addition, due tosince the implementation of the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act onin September 28, 2016, revenue growth for corporate cards and service related industries such as dining, floral and entertainment have shown signs of decline.decline, and additional regulations on loans reducing maximum interest rates chargeable from 27.9% to 24% came into effect in February 2018. These developments have put further downward pressure on the results of operations for credit card companies, including Shinhan Card. Furthermore, the Government’s recent guidelines to bolster consumer protection and protect customers’ personal data in the aftermath of data leaks at certain credit companies (not including Shinhan Card) may result in additional compliance costs for Shinhan Card. Customer attrition, together with any further lowering of fees or reduction in base and market interest rates and/or additional expenses from more extensive marketing and promotional campaigns that Shinhan Card might implement to acquire and retain customers, could reduce its revenues and earnings. Furthermore, the average credit quality of Shinhan Card’s customers may deteriorate if customers with higher credit quality borrow from our competitors rather than Shinhan Card and it may become more difficult for Shinhan Card to attract and maintain quality customers. In general, the growth, market share and profitability of Shinhan Card’s operations may decline or become negative as a result of market saturation in this sector, interest rate competition, pressure to lower fee rates and incur higher marketing expenses, as well as Government regulation and social and economic developments in Korea that are beyond our control, such as changes in consumer confidence levels, spending patterns or public perception of credit card usage and consumer debt. If Shinhan Card fails to maintain or attract new cardholders or increase the card usage by existing customers or experiences deterioration in its asset quality and a rise in delinquency, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
In other financial services sectors, our other subsidiaries also compete in a highly fragmented market. Some of our competitors, particularly the major global financial institutions, have greater experience and resources than we do.
Consolidation among our rival institutions and the Government’s privatization efforts may also add competition in the markets in which we and our subsidiaries conduct business. A number of significant mergers and acquisitions in the industry have taken place in Korea over the past decade,recently, including the acquisition of Hanmi Bank by an affiliate of Citibank in 2004, Standard Chartered Bank’s acquisition of Korea First Bank in 2005, Chohung Bank’s merger with Shinhan Bank in 2006 and Hana Financial Group’s acquisition of Korea Exchange Bank in 2012 and the resulting merger of Hana Bank and Korea Exchange Bank in September 2015. Moreover, in 2014, pursuant to the implementation of the Government’s privatization plan with respect to Woori Finance Holdings (now merged into Woori Bank) and its former subsidiaries, Woori Financial, Woori Asset Management and Woori F&I were acquired by KB Financial Group, Kiwoom Securities and Daishin Securities, respectively, and Woori Investment & Securities, Woori Aviva Life Insurance and Woori FG Savings Bank were acquired by NongHyup Financial Group. In addition, in October 2014, the Government’s ownership interestinterests in the holding companies of Kwangju Bank and Kyongnam Bank were acquired by JB Financial Group and BS Financial Group (now BNK Financial Group), respectively. In 2015, the Government decided to sell a 30% to 40% interest in Woori Bank to multiple investors in separate blocks ranging from 4% to 10% each. Since December 2016, Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation has consummated sales transactions with
seven institutional investors including Kiwoom Securities, Korea Investment and Securities, Hanwha Life Insurance, Tongyang Life Insurance, Eugene Asset Management, Mirae Asset Global Investments and IMM Private Equity for the sale of an aggregate 29.7% interest in Woori Bank in separate blocks. In the securities brokerage sector,Mirae Asset acquired KDB Daewoo Securities in 2016, creating the largest brokerage company in Korea byassets. Onby assets, and on June 1, 2016, KB Financial Group completed its acquisition of Hyundai Securities and merged it withitswith its existing brokerage unit, KB Investment & Securities Co, creating the fifth largest brokerage company in Korea by assetsassets. In the asset management business sector, Woori Financial Group acquired two asset management companies, Tongyang Asset Management and ABL Global Asset Management (former Allianz Global Investors).Any of these developments may place us at a competitive disadvantage and outweigh any potential benefit to us in the form of opportunities to acquire new customers who are displeased with the level of services at the newly reorganized entities or to provide credit facilities to corporate customers who wish to
maintain relationships with a wide range of banks in order to diversify their sources of funding. In September 2018, we announced the acquisition of a 59.15% interest in Orange Life Insurance, the former Korean unit of ING Life Insurance, as part of our efforts to diversify and enhance ournon-banking businesses and closed on February 1, 2019. On January 28, 2020, we acquired the remaining interests in Orange Life Insurance by effecting a comprehensive stock exchange under Articles360-2 of the Korean Commercial Code whereby holders (other than us) of Orange Life Insurance’s common stock transferred all of their shares to us and in return receive shares of our common stock, and hence Orange Life Insurance has become our wholly owned subsidiary as of such date. We expect that such consolidation and other structural changes in the financial industry will continue. Other financial institutions may seek to acquire or merge with other entities, and the financial institutions resulting from such consolidation may, by virtue of their increased size and business scope, provide greater competition for us. Increased competition and continuing consolidation may lead to decreased margins, resulting in a material adverse impact on our future profitability.
Regulatory reforms and the general modernization of business practices in Korea have also led to increased competition among financial institutions in Korea. Since July 2015, the Financial Services Commission has provided, through the Korea Financial Telecommunications and Clearings Institute, the integrated automatic payment transfer management service, which allows account holders to search for, terminate or modify automatic payments they have set up with financial institutions participating in such service (currently including banks, securities companies and other financial institutions such as The Post Office, Korean Federation of Community Credit Cooperatives, National Credit Union Federation of Korea, Mutual Savings Bank and National Forestry Cooperative Federation). In addition, the Financial Services Commission began providing the integrated account management service from December 2016, which allows account holders to search for detailed information of their bank accounts opened in banks participating in such service, closesmall-sum inactive accounts (i.e., accounts with no transaction activity during the previous one year period)period and with a balance of less thanW500,000) and transfer the balance in such accounts to other accounts. Moreover, in December 2017, the Financial Services Commission introduced the “my account at a glance” system, which enables consumers to view their key financial account information online, including information on banks, insurances, mutual finance, loan and card issuances on one page. The “my account at a glance” system became available on mobile channels in February 2016 and expanded its scope of services to include savings banks and securities companies. Since their introduction, the integrated automatic payment transfer management andservice, integrated account management servicesservice and “my account at a glance” system have gained widespread acceptance, evidenced by the fact that, as of December 31, 2016, approximately 25% of the adult population are using either of these services.
Furthermore, effective March 2016, the Financial Services Commission introduced the individual savings account (“ISA”) system, as part of its efforts to lower the regulatory barrier between the banking and securities sectors. The ISA is an integrated account that enables account holders to manage a number of different financial products, including cash deposits, funds and securities investment accounts, from a single account, the income from which will be eligible for tax benefits. Since this new system does not allow an individual to hold multiple ISA accounts, competition among banks and securities firms to retain existing customers and attract new customers is expected to intensify.acceptance. As the reform of the financial sector continues, competition may become more intense among existing banks, insurance companies, securities companies and other financial organizations, and may lead to significant changes in the current Korean financial market. AsMoreover, the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business was amended on July 12, 2018 to provide that, beginning on January 1, 2020, in calculating loan to deposit ratio, retail loans and corporate loans are weighed differently, with retail loans subject to a multiple of 115% and corporate loans (excluding loans to SOHOs) subject to a multiple of 85%, thereby increasing the impact of retail loans and reducing the impact of corporate loans in calculating such ratio. This may further intensify competition for corporate loans and deposits among commercial banks and, as a result, Shinhan Bank may face difficulties in increasing or retaining its corporate loans and deposits, which in turn may result in an increase in its cost of funding and a decrease in its settlement and remittance service fee revenue.funding.
Furthermore, as the Korean economy further develops and new business opportunities arise, more competitors may enter the financial services industry. For example, as online service providers and technology companies with large-scale user networks, such as Kakao Corp., NAVER and Samsung Electronics, recently make significant inroads in providing virtual payment services through a system based on a growing convergence of financial services and technology commonly referred to as “fintech,” competition for online customers is growing not just among commercial banks, but also from online and mobile payment service providers. Also, widespread consumer acceptance of mobile phone payment services in lieu of credit card services could add to the competitive threat faced by existing credit card service providers, including our credit card subsidiary. In 2015, the Government announced its plans to allow Internet-only banks to operate in Korea. On December 14, 2016, the Financial Services Commission granted KT consortium’sK-Bank with its banking services license and stated that its review of a banking services license for Kakao consortium’s Kakao Bank would be finished by March 2017. K-Bank begancommenced operations in April 2017 and KakaoJuly 2017, respectively, and Viva Republica consortium’s Toss Bank is expected to launch duringhas recently obtained preliminary business authorization from the first half of 2017.Financial Services Commission on December 16, 2019. Internet-only banks may have advantages over traditional banks as the former can pass savings in labor and overhead costs to their customers by offering higher interest rates on deposit accounts, lower loan costs and reduced service fees. Accordingly, commercial banks will likely face increasing pressure to upgrade their service platforms to attract and maintain online users, which represents a growing customer base compared to traditional customers who have primarily conducted bankingin-person at physical banking branches.
As part of the Government’s financial policies to promote innovative digital finance, 10 commercial banks, including Shinhan Bank, began offering a preliminary open banking service in October 2019. More local banks and fintech companies joined in December 2019, when the open banking service was fully and officially launched. Open banking service allows each fintech company and bank to provide banking services, such as checking balances and making withdrawals and transfers, with regards to customers’ accounts at other banks. Using open banking service, customers can easily access accounts, products and services across multiple banks, instead of being limited to the accounts, products and services available at the particular bank that they deal with. In addition, on January 9, 2020, the Korean National Assembly passed amendments to three major data privacy laws (the Personal Information Protection Act, the Act on the Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection and the Act on the Use and Protection of Credit Information). These amendments introduced the MyData service, allowing and requiring (upon the customer’s request and subject to compliance requirements) financial institutions that have been approved by the Financial Service Commission as a MyData service provider access and sharing of customers’ personal information, credit information and transaction data. If and when fintech companies receive authorization as MyData service providers, we expect competition for customers among banks and fintech firms such as Kakao Pay, Toss and Bank Salad to intensify.
Recently, following the global financial crisis, the Government has subjected Korean financial institutions to stricter regulatory requirements and guidelines in areas of asset quality, capital adequacy, liquidity and residential and other lending practices (including a requirement to maintain a certain ratio of core capital to total risk exposure, which was introduced in January 2018 in order to control excessive leverage), which has had a dampening effect on competition. The Financial Services Commission implemented the capital requirements of Basel III, whose minimum requirements were phased in sequentially from December 1, 2013 through full implementation by January 1, 2015, based on the guidelines set forth in the amended Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business and the Detailed Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business. In addition, the Financial Services Commission is currently implementinghas implemented the Basel III requirements relating to liquidity coverage ratio and capital conservation buffer, each of which will behave been fully phased in byas of January 1, 2019. As of January 1, 2016, the Financial Services Commission implemented Basel III requirements relating to accumulation of additional capital for systemically important banks and bank holding companies and countercyclical capital buffer requirements. Each year, the Financial Services Commission may designate banks with significant influence (based on size and connectivity with other financial institutions) on the domestic financial system as a domestic systemically important bank and require the accumulation of additional capital in accordance with the highest of: (i) ratio of common equity capital to risk-weighted assets, ranging from 0.0% to 2.0%, depending on the systematic importance evaluation score, (ii) if the bank’s holding company is a domestic
systemically important bank holding company, the capital ratio corresponding to the additional capital required for the bank holding company under the Financial Holding Company Supervision Regulations, or (iii) if the bank is also a global systemically important bank, as defined by the Basel Committee, on Banking Supervision (the “Basel Committee”), the capital ratio as required by the Basel Committee. According to the instructions of the Financial Services Commission, domestic systematically important banks including Shinhan Bank arehave been required to maintain an additional capital buffer of 0.25% starting onsince January 1, 2016, with such buffer to increaseincreased by 0.25% annually to reach 1.00% byas of January 1, 2019. The Financial Services Commission may also, upon quarterly review, determine and require banks to accumulate a required level of countercyclical capital buffer within the range of 0% to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, taking into account factors such as the degree of increase in credit relative to the gross domestic product. However, there is no assurance that these measures will have the effect of curbing competition or that the Government will not reverse or reduce such measures or introduce other deregulatory measures, which may further intensify competition in the Korean financial services industry. For further details on the capital requirements applicable to us, see “— Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Capital Adequacy.”
If, despite our efforts to adapt to the changing macroeconomic environment and comply with new regulations, we are unable to compete effectively in the changing business and regulatory environment, our profit margin and market share may erode and our future growth opportunities may become limited, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Overall Business — Competition in the Korean financial services industry is intense, and may further intensify” and “Item 4.B. Business Overview —“— Supervision and Regulation — Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act.Regulation.”

Nonaccrual Loans and Past Due Accruing Loans
Except in the case of repurchased loans, we generally recognize interest income on nonaccrual loans using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows of such loans for the purpose of measuring impairment loss. Generally, we discontinue accruing of interest on loans (other than repurchased loans) when payment of interest and/or principal becomes past due by 90 days. Loans (other than repurchased loans) are not reclassified as accruing until interest and principal payments are brought current.
We generally do not request borrowers to make immediate repayment of the whole outstanding principal balances and related accrued interest on loans whose interest payments are past due for one to 14 days in the case of commercial loans and one to 30 days in the case of retail loans.
Interest foregone is interest due on nonaccrual loans that has not been accrued in our books of account. In 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 20162019, we would have recorded gross interest income ofW16379 billion,W11991 billion,W11396 billion,W7966 billion andW9164 billion, respectively, on loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis throughout the respective years, or since origination for loans held for part of the year, had the loans been current with respect to their original contractual terms. The amount of interest income on those loans that was included in our net income in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 20162019 wereW7039 billion,W5838 billion,W5342 billion,W3936 billion andW38 billion, respectively.
The following table shows, at the dates indicated, the amount of loans that are placed on a nonaccrual basis and accruing loans which are past due one day or more. The term “accruing but past due one day” includes loans which are still accruing interest but on which principal or interest payments are contractually past due one day or more. We continue to accrue interest on loans where the total amount of loan outstanding, including accrued interest, is fully secured by cash on deposits.

The following table presents, at the dates indicated, our loans which are “troubled debt restructurings.” These loans mainly consist of corporate loans that have been restructured through the process of workout and recovery proceedings. See “—“ — Credit Exposures to Companies in Workout and Recovery Proceedings.” These loans accrue interest at rates lower than the original contractual terms, or involve the extension of the original contractual maturity as a result of a variation of terms upon restructuring.

Credit Exposures to Companies in Workout and Recovery Proceedings
Our credit exposures to restructuring are monitored and managed by our Corporate Credit CollectionSupport Department. As of December 31, 2016, 0.2%2019, 0.13% of our total loans, orW526425 billion (of whichW393336 billion was classified as nonaccrual andW13389 billion was classified as accruing), was under restructuring. Restructuring of our credit exposures generally takes the form of workout and recovery proceedings.
Workout
Under the oldThe original Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act which(Act No. 6504) was enacted on August 14, 2001 in order to facilitate theout-of-court restructuring of insolvent companies. This law expired on December 31, 2015, all creditors that are financial institutions were required to participate in a creditors’ committee. The old Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act was mandatorily applicable to a wide range of financial institutions in Korea, including commercial banks, insurance companies, asset management companies, securities companies, merchant banks, the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation2005, and the Korea Asset Management Corporation. Under this act, the approval of financial institution creditors holding not less than 75% of the total debt outstanding of a borrower was required for such borrower’s restructuring plan, including debt restructuring and provision of additional funds, which plan would be binding on all the financial institution creditors of the borrower, provided that any financial institution creditor that disagrees with the final restructuring plan approved by the creditors’ committee has the right to request the creditors’ committee to purchase its claims at a mutually agreed price. In
the event that the creditors’ committee and the dissenting financial institution creditor fail to come to an agreement, the act provided that a mediation committee consisting of seven experts be formed to resolve the matter.
The above-mentioned old Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act expired on December 31, 2015, and a new Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act, which modifiedActs were enacted on August 3, 2007 (expired on December 31, 2010), May 19, 2011 (expired on December 31, 2013), January 1, 2014 (expired on December 31, 2015),
March 18, 2016 (expired on June 30, 2018) and expandedOctober 16, 2018 (to be expired on October 15, 2023, the old act in several respects, was passed innew CRPA enacted and implemented on October 16, 2018 is hereinafter referred to as the National Assembly“CRPA”).
If the ‘main Creditor Financial Institution’ of Koreaa Failing Company provided notice of convening a Creditor Committee (defined below) on March 3, 2016. The new Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act has extended the definition of “borrower”or before October 15, 2023, any proceedings commenced by such Creditor Committee will remain subject to the act from any enterprise whose total amount of credit granted from financial institution creditors is at leastW50 billion to any enterprise thatCRPA even after October 15, 2023 unless and until such proceedings are completed or discontinued.
The following is a corporationsummary of the key provisions of the CRPA. The CRPA applies to a financial creditor (the “Financial Creditor”) who has financial claims against a debtor company by ‘providing credit’ to such debtor company or other third parties. “Provision of Credit” is defined in the CRPA as any transaction determined by the Financial Supervisory Commission to fall under any of the following:
loans;
purchase of promissory notes and debentures or bonds;
equipment leasing;
payment guarantees;
providing advance payments on acceptances and guarantees under a payment guarantee;
any direct or indirect financial transaction which may cause a loss to a counterparty as a consequence of a payment failure by a debtor company; or
any transaction other than the transactions set out above which may have in substance the same effect as the transactions set out above.
The “debtor company” is defined under the CRPA as a company established under the Korean Commercial Code or any other entityperson performing commercialprofit-making activities. The new Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act has also extendedFailing Company means a debtor company deemed, through a credit evaluation carried out in the manner set out in the CRPA, by its ‘main Creditor Financial Institution’ as having difficulty to repay debts to its financial creditor without external financial support or an additional loan (excluding loans obtained in the course of conducting normal financial transactions).
Once the debtor company is notified by the main Creditor Financial Institution to fall under the definition of “creditor” whoFailing Company, such company may participate insubmit its business restructuring plan and the list of its Financial Creditors, and apply to such main Creditor Financial Institution for commencement of the management procedure to be assumed by a creditors’ committee from financial institution creditors to all creditors who have claims to the borrower through granting of credit.Financial Creditors (the “Creditor Committee”) or such main Creditor Financial Institution.
Under the CRPA, the main Creditor Financial Institution of a Failing Company is required to take or arrange one of the following actions if it determines that there is a possibility that the financial condition of the Failing Company may be rehabilitated or brought back to normal in accordance with its business restructuring plan:
convocation of the first meeting of the Creditor Committee to decide whether to commence the management of the Failing Company by the Creditor Committee; or
assumption of management of the Failing Company by the main Creditor Financial Institution.
Under the CRPA, in order to call for the first meeting of the Creditor Committee, the main Creditor Financial Institution is required to notify the Financial Creditors, the Failing Company and the Financial Supervisory Service. However, the main Creditor Financial Institution may omit the notification to some extent of the Financial Creditors who are set out in the CRPA such as a Financial Creditor who does not perform the financial business or a Financial Creditor who has only small claims against the Failing Company. The Financial Creditors who do not receive the notification from the main Creditor Financial Institution will be excluded from
the Creditor Committee; provided that if they nevertheless want to attend the meeting, the main Creditor Financial Institution may not exclude such Financial Creditors. When the main Creditor Financial Institution calls for the first meeting of the Creditor Committee, it may require the Financial Creditors to grant a moratorium on the enforcement of claims (including the enforcement of security interests) until the end of the first meeting of the Creditor Committee. In addition, at the first meeting of the Creditor Committee, the Financial Creditors may resolve to declare a moratorium for up to one month (or three months if an investigation of the Failing Company’s financial status is necessary) from the commencement date of the management procedure (which may be extended by one additional month by resolutions of the Creditor Committee).
The Financial Creditors who attend the first meeting of the Creditor Committee may resolve, among other things: (i) commencement of the management procedure, (ii) composition of the Financial Creditors who will participate in such management procedure and (iii) declaration of moratorium mentioned above.
Once the management procedure commences, the main Creditor Financial Institution is required to prepare the corporate restructuring plan of the Failing Company considering the investigation results of the Failing Company’s financial status and submit such plan to the Creditor Committee for approval thereof. The corporate restructuring plan may include, among other things, the matters regarding rescheduling of debt owed by the Failing Company, provision of new act,credit and the creditors thatbusiness restructuring plan of the Failing Company. If the corporate restructuring plan is not approved by the date the moratorium period ends, the Creditor Committee’s management of the Failing Company shall be deemed to have terminated.
The resolution at the Creditor Committee is generally passed by an approval of the Financial Creditors representing at least 75 per cent. of the outstanding credit to the Failing Company of the Financial Creditors who constitute the creditors’ committee shall be determined at the committee’s initial assembly based on the approval of creditorsCreditor Committee; provided that hold 75% or more of the total debt outstanding held by creditors notified of such initial assembly. Although creditors that are not financial institutions or possess less than 1% of the total amount of claims to the borrower are not required to be notified of the assembly of the creditors’ committee, such creditors shall not be excluded from the committee if they wish to participate. Resolutions of the creditors’ committee shall be adopted by the approval of creditors holding 75% or more of the total debt outstanding to the creditors of the committee. However, if a single creditorFinancial Creditor holds 75% or moreat least 75 per cent. of the total debt outstanding tocredit, the creditors of the committee, resolutionsresolution shall be adoptedpassed by a votean approval of 40% or morenot less than 40 per cent. of the total number of creditors of the committee,Financial Creditors who constitute the Creditor Committee, including such single creditor. In addition, a resolutionFinancial Creditor. An additional approval of the creditors’ committee on debt restructuring shall be effective only with the consent of creditorsFinancial Creditors holding at least 75%interests in 75 per cent. or more of the total amount of the secured claims owned by the Financial Creditors constituting the Creditor Committee against the Failing Company is required with respect to the debt rescheduling of the creditorsFailing Company.
A Financial Creditor which has opposed the resolutions of the committee.Creditor Committee in respect of the commencement of management of the Failing Company by the Creditor Committee, establishment of or amendment to the corporate restructuring plan, extension of management procedure, the rescheduling of claims or provision of new credit (the “Opposing Financial Creditor”) may, within seven days of such resolutions, request the main Creditor Financial Institutions to purchase its outstanding claims against the Failing Company, stating the type and number of claims. The new Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act is set to expire on June 30, 2018.Financial Creditors that have approved such resolutions (the “Approving Financial Creditors”) shall jointly purchase such claims within six months of such request.
The total loan amount currently undergoing workout aspurchase price and terms of December 31, 2016 wasW410 billion.such purchase shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Approving Financial Creditors and the Opposing Financial Creditor. Pending the agreement of such matters, the payments shall be made at a provisional price, and adjusting payments made once an agreement has been reached. If no such agreement is reached, then such matters shall be determined by the coordination committee established under the CRPA.
Recovery Proceedings
Under the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act, which took effect on April 1, 2006, court receiverships have been replaced with recovery proceedings. In a recovery proceeding, unlike court receivership proceedings where the management of the debtor company was vested in a court appointed receiver, the existing chief executive officer of the debtor company may continue to manage the debtor company, provided, that (i) neither fraudulent conveyance nor concealment of assets existed, (ii) the financial failure of the debtor company was not due to gross negligence of such chief executive officer, and (iii) no creditors’ meeting was
convened to request, based on reasonable cause, a court-appointed receiver to replace such chief executive officer. Recovery proceeding may be commenced by any insolvent debtor. Furthermore, in an effort to meet the global standards, international bankruptcy procedures have been introduced in Korea under which a receiver of a foreign bankruptcy proceeding may, upon receiving Korean court approval of the ongoing foreign bankruptcy proceeding, apply for or participate in a Korean bankruptcy proceeding. Similarly, a receiver in a domestic recovery proceeding or a bankruptcy trustee is allowed to perform its duties in a foreign country where an asset of the debtor is located to the extent the applicable foreign law permits.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, the total loan amount subject to recovery proceedings wasW113121 billion. No loan amount was subject to court receivership or composition proceedings.
Loans in the process of workout and recovery proceedings areproceedingsare reported as nonaccrual loans on our statements of financial position as described in “— Nonaccrual Loans and Past Due Accruing Loans” above since generally, they are past due by more than 90 days and interest does not accrue on such loans. Restructured loans that meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring are reported as troubled debt restructurings as
described above in “— Troubled Debt Restructurings.” Such restructured loans are reported as either loans or securities on our statements of financial position depending on the type of instrument we receive as a result of the restructuring.
Credit Rehabilitation Programs for Delinquent Consumer and Small- andMedium-sized Enterprise Borrowers
In light of the gradual increase in delinquencies in credit card and other consumer credit, the Korean governmentGovernment has implemented a number of measures intended to support the rehabilitation of the credit of delinquent consumer borrowers. These measures may affect the amount and timing of our collections and recoveries on our delinquent consumer credits.
The Credit Counseling and Recovery Service offers two programs for individual debtors, thepre-workout program and the individual workout program, both of which are available to individuals with total debt amounts ofW1.5 billion or less (secured debt amount ofW1 billion or less and unsecured debt amount ofW500 million or less). Thepre-workout program is offered to individuals whose delinquency period is between 31 days and 89 days (including those whose delinquency period is between one day and 30 days but with annual income ofW40 million or less and cumulative delinquency period of 30 days or more within the year immediately preceding the application date), and the individual workout program is offered to individuals whose delinquency period is three months or more. When an individual debtor applies for thepre-workout or individual workout program, the Credit Counseling and Recovery Service will deliberate and resolve on a debt restructuring plan, and once the creditor financial institution that is in a credit recovery support agreement with the Credit Counseling and Recovery Service and holding the majority of each of the unsecured claims and secured claims to the relevant individual debtor agrees to such debt restructuring plan, the plan will be finalized and debt restructuring measures, such as extension of maturity, adjustment of interest rates or reduction of debt, will be taken according to thepre-workout program or individual workout program applied for.
Under the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act, a qualified individual debtor with outstanding debts in an aggregate amount not exceeding threshold amounts ofW500 million of unsecured debt and/orW1 billion of secured debt may restructure his or her debts through a court-supervised debt restructuring that is binding on creditors.
Once a borrower is deemed to be eligible to participate in thepre-workout program, we promptly sell the collateral underlying such borrower’s secured loans to mitigate our losses, and we may restructure such borrower’s unsecured loans (regardless of their type) as follows:
| • | Extension of maturity: Based on considerations of the type of loan, the total loan amount, the repayment amount and the probability of repayment, the maturity of unsecured loans may be extended by up to 10 years and maturity of secured loans may be extended by up to 20 years with a grace period not exceeding three years. |
| • | Interest rate adjustment: The interest rate of the loan may be adjusted to 70% of the original interest rate or 5% per annum, whichever is higher; provided that if the original interest rate is less than 5% per annum, no adjustment applies. The adjusted interest rate applies to the principal amount following any adjustment thereto as part of thepre-workout program, and no interest accrues on the interest already accrued or fees payable. |
| • | Debt forgiveness: Debt forgiveness under thepre-workout program is limited to (i) the default interest accrued prior to the application for thepre-workout program and (ii) the regular and default interest accrued following such application but before the approval of the program. |
| • | Deferral: If the foregoing three measures are deemed to be insufficient in terms of providing meaningful assistance to a qualifying borrower due to layoff, unemployment, business closure, disaster or earnings loss, loan repayment may be deferred for a maximum of one year, provided that thepre-workout committee may extend such deferral period every six months, for a period not to exceed six months, upon the borrower’s application. The deferral period is not counted toward the repayment period, and interest accrues at 3% per annum during the deferral period. |
In 2019, the aggregate amount of our retail credit (including credit card receivables) which became subject to thepre-workout program wasW126 billion. We believe that our participation in suchpre-workout program has not had a material impact on the overall asset quality of our retail loans and credit card portfolio or on our results of operations and financial condition to date.
Under the guidelines of the Financial Supervisory Commission, Korean banks, including Shinhan Bank, operated since 2008 a fast track program which was a liquidity support program for small- andmedium-sized companies. As the fast track program ended as of December 31, 2016, the Financial Supervisory Service implemented a swift financial assistance program for small- andmedium-sized companies for a period of five years beginning on January 1, 2017. Banks and other financial institutions participating in the program will, based on an evaluation of credit risks, provide financial assistance (including extension of maturity on existing obligations and lower interest rates) to small- andmedium-sized companies that are experiencing temporary liquidity crises but have a credit rating exceeding a certain threshold. In principle, the application of the swift financial assistance program to companies will be limited to three years, but such application may be extended, in consultation with the creditor financial institutions concerned, one time for an additional period of up to one year.
Once a borrower is deemed to be eligible to participate in the pre-workout program, we promptly sell the collateral underlying such borrower’s secured loans to mitigate our losses, and we may restructure such borrower’s unsecured loans (regardless of their type) as follows:
|
|
In 2016, the aggregate amount of our retail credit (including credit card receivables) provided by Shinhan Bank which became subject to the pre-workout program wasW84 billion. We believe that our participation in such pre-workout program has not had a material impact on the overall asset quality of our retail loans and credit card portfolio or on our results of operations and financial condition to date.
Loan Modification Programs for Loans under Troubled Debt Restructuring
We generally offer the following types of concessions in relation to restructured loans: reduction of interest rate, forgiveness of overdue interest, extension of the term for repayment of principal, conversion of debt into equity or thea combination of the foregoing. The nature and degree of such concessions vary depending on, among other things, the creditworthiness of the borrower, the size of loans being restructured, the existing terms of the loans and other factors deemed relevant by the relevant creditors’ committee. Wecommittee.We generally do not restructure an existing loan into multiple new loans.
The following table presents a breakdown of the gross amount of loans under restructuring as of December 31, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 20162019 by our loan modification programs, as further categorized according to the loan category and performing versusnon-performing status at each fiscal year end.

| (2) | Principally consists of restructured loans whose restructuring terms were not determined as of the date indicated. A loan is deemed to be subject to restructuring upon the commencement of the recovery proceedings or when the relevant creditors’ committee or our credit officer determines that the borrower will be subject to workout, and in many cases the restructuring terms for such loans are not determined at the time such loans are deemed to be subject to restructuring. |
Debt-to-equity Conversion
We distinguish between loans that we consider to be collectible under modified terms and loans that we consider to be uncollectible regardless of any modification of terms. With respect to loans that are in the latter category, we convert a portion of such loans into equity securities following negotiation with the borrowers and charge off the remainder of such loans as further described below. The equity securities so converted are recorded at fair value, based on the market value of such securities if available or the appraisal value of such securities by an outside appraiser if a market value is unavailable. In 2016,2019, our loans restructured into equity securities amounted toW22112 billion, which was subsequently charged off.
Debt-to-equity conversion generally has two primary benefits. One, thedebt-to-equity conversion reduces the amount of loans and related interest expenses of the borrower, resulting in lesser debt burden and greater liquidity for the borrower, a greater likelihood of its exit from restructuring and the repayment of its obligations to us. Two, in the case of a successful turnaround of the borrower, we are entitled to the upside gains from the increase in the value of the equity securities so converted. Notwithstanding these benefits, however, the resulting impact from thedebt-to-equity conversion on our interest income is generally not material as the loans being converted as part of restructuring are generally deemed to be uncollectible regardless any modification of terms. As for the impact on our asset classification, we generally apply the same asset classification standards to bothnon-restructured and restructured loans. As for restructured loans, we also consider additional factors such as the borrower’s adherence to its business plans and execution of the self-help measures, among others, to the extent applicable. In consideration of such criteria, we generally classify loans subject to workout as “precautionary.” For a general discussion of our loan classifications, see “— Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Capital Adequacy.”
Evaluation of Loan Modification Programs
We currently do not conduct a systematic or quantitative evaluation of the success of any particular concession by type, whether historically, relative to each other or relative to other financial institutions in Korea, although we do monitor on an individual basis the compliance by the borrower with the modified terms of the restructured loans. This is principally due to the following reasons.
One, in the case of large corporations subject to or about to be subject to restructuring, which represents the most significant restructuring cases in Korea, the restructuring process is generally not driven by us, but by a creditors’ committee involving several large creditor financial institutions, and in the case of very large corporations or corporations that are members of large business conglomerates, the process frequently involves the guidance of the Government in light of the potential ripple effects of the restructuring on the general economy. Hence, it is difficult for us to collect data that would help us to evaluate the success of a particular concession based on the credit profile of the borrower and the type of concessions offered.
Two, the unavailability of systematic analysis notwithstanding, our general sense is that the restructuring cases in Korea have, to a large part, been successful as measured in terms of the ability of the borrowers to exit restructuring programs relatively quickly and further that the failed cases have not been particularly material. As a result, to date, we have not found it particularly necessary or helpful to expend the time and resources required to conduct a systematic analysis for purposes of evaluating the success of concessions by the type of a particular concession offered.
We do, however, measure the success of concessions in limited ways, that is, principally in terms of how well the borrower complies with the terms and conditions of the restructuring plan as agreed between the borrower and its creditor institutions. A restructuring plan typically includes a business plan and self-help measures to be undertaken by the borrower. We monitor the borrower’s compliance with the restructuring plan on a periodic basis (namely, annual, semiannual or quarterly in accordance with the terms of the restructuring plan) and evaluate the success thereof principally in terms of three attributes: (i) the progress in the execution of the business plan, (ii) the progress in the execution of the self-help measures and (iii) other qualitative factors such as major developments in the general economy, the regulatory environment, the competitive landscape, the quality of senior management and personnel, and transparency in management. We also closely monitor the cash inflows and outflows of the borrower, and the creditors’ committee typically has the right to participate in decision-making related to major spending and borrowings by the borrower.
Accrual Policy for Restructured Loans
For purposes of our accrual policy, we classify restructured loans principally into (i) loans subject to workout pursuant to the Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act and (ii) loans subject to recovery proceedings
pursuant to the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act, which is the comprehensive bankruptcy-related law in Korea. See “— Credit Exposures to Companies in Workout and Recovery Proceedings.” As for loans subject to workout, our general policy is to discontinue accruing interest on a loan when payment of principal and/or interest thereon becomes past due by 90 days or more, as described above in “— Nonaccrual Loans and Past Due Accruing Loans”. Interest is recognized on these loans on a cash basis (i.e., when collected) from the date such loan is reclassified asnon-accruing, and such loans are not reclassified as accruing until the overdue principal and/or interest amounts are paid in full. This general policy also applies to loans subject to workout even if such loans are restructured loans. In the case of loans subject to recovery proceedings, we discontinue accruing interest immediately upon the borrowers becoming subject to recovery proceedings (even if such loans are not yet delinquent) in light of the heightened uncertainty regarding the borrower’s ability to repay. Interest on such loans areis recognized on a cash basis and such loans are not reclassified as accruing until the borrower exits recovery proceedings. Accordingly, under our accrual policy, the number of payments made on a nonaccrual restructured loan is not a relevant factor in determining whether to reinstate such loan to the accrual status.
Determination of Performance of Restructured Loans
In determining whether a borrower has satisfactorily performed its obligations under the existing loan terms, we principally review the payment history of the borrower, namely whether the borrower has been delinquent by one day or more pursuant to our general interest accrual policy. In determining whether a borrower has shown the capacity to continue to perform under the restructured terms, we primarily rely upon the assessment of our credit officers (or the creditors’ committee in the case of large corporate borrowers with significant outstanding loans)
of the likelihood of the borrower’s ability to repay under the restructured terms, which assessment takes into account the size of the loans in question, the credit profile of the borrower, the original terms of the loans and other factors deemed relevant by the relevant credit officers. Depending on various factors such as the size of the loans in question and the credit profile of the borrower, we or the relevant creditors’ committee, as the case may be, sometimes engage an outside advisory firm to perform further due diligence in order to supplement the aforementioned assessment. In certain cases, the borrowers also submit self-help proposals to facilitate obtaining the approval for restructuring, which measures are then also taken into consideration by our credit officers or the relevant creditors’ committees, as the case may be, in determining their future capacity to continue to perform under the restructured terms.
Charge-off of Restructured Loans
As for loans that we consider to be collectible under modified terms (for example, by extending the due date for the payment of principal and/or interest or reducing the interest rate below the applicable interest rate to a rate below the prevailing market rate, or a combination of the foregoing), we generally restructure such loans under the modified terms and do not charge off any portion of such loans.
As for loans that we consider to be uncollectible regardless of any modification of terms, we negotiate with the borrower to have a portion of such loans converted into equity securities (usually common stock) of the borrower in consideration, among others, of (i) the degree to which such conversion will alleviate the debt burdens and liquidity concerns of the borrower, (ii) our potential upside from the gain in the value of the equity securities compared to the likelihood of collection if the loans were not converted into equity securities, and (iii) the borrower’s concerns regarding its shareholding structure subsequent to such conversion. We then charge off the remainder of the loans not converted into equity securities. The value of the equity securities so converted is recorded at fair value, based on the market value of such securities if available or the appraisal value of such securities by an outside appraiser if a market value is unavailable.
Since we generally do not accrue interest on loans subject to recovery proceedings while we generally accrue interest on loans subject to workout unless past due by 90 days or more,charge-off is not a relevant factor we consider when determining the accrual status of a particular restructured loan.
We continue to accrue interest on restructured loans if we conclude that repayment of interest and principal contractually due on the entire debt is reasonably assured. Such conclusion is reached only after we have carefully reviewed the borrower’s ability to repay based on an assessment, among others, of various factors such as the size of the loans in question and the credit quality of the borrower by our credit officer or the relevant creditors’ committee as supplemented by the due diligence by outside advisory firms, as the case may be.
Potential Problem Loans
In 2012,We operate an “early warning system” in order to enable a more systematic and real-time monitoring of loans with a significant potential of non-repayment, we have upgraded our “early warning system.”default. This system enablesassists our management to determine potential problemin making decisions by identifying loans to include all loans which have caused our management to have serious doubt as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with their respective loan repayment terms.terms as well as loans with significant potential ofnon-repayment.
We classify potential problem loans as loans that are designated as “early warning loans” and reported to the Financial Supervisory Service. The “early warning loans” designation applies to borrowers that have been (i) identified by our early warning system as exhibiting signs of credit risk based on the relevant borrower’s financial data, credit information and/or transactions with banks and, following such identification and (ii) designated by our loan officers as potential problem loans on their evaluation of known information about such borrowers’ possible credit problems. Such loans are required to be reported on a quarterly basis to the Financial Supervisory Service. If a borrower’s loans are designated as “early warning loans” pursuant to the process described above and included in our quarterly report to the Financial Supervisory Service, we consider
this to be an indication of serious doubt as to such borrower’s ability to comply with repayment terms in the near future. As of December 31, 2016,2019, we hadW1,006657 billion of potential problem loans.
Provisioning Policy
Loans
We conduct periodic and systematic detailed reviews of our loan portfolios to identify credit risks and to establish the overall allowance for loan losses.credit losses on loans. Our management believes the allowance for loancredit losses on loans reflects the best estimate of the probable loanexpected credit losses incurred as of the date of each statement of financial position.
We firstAt each reporting date, we assess whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for loans and receivables that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If we determine that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, we include the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assess them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If there is objective evidence thaton a financial asset, such asinstrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When making the assessment, we use the change in the risk of a loan or receivable, has suffered impairment loss,default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. Upon assessment, each asset is classified as in one of the impairment lossfollowing three stages, which is measuredused as the difference betweenbasis of calculating the asset’s carrying amountloss allowances at the12-month expected credit losses (“ECL”) or the lifetime ECL, depending on the stage.
Category | Provision for credit loss allowance | |||
Stage 1 | When credit risk has not increased significantly since the initial recognition | 12-months ECL: The ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring within the next 12 months | ||
Stage 2 | When credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition | Lifetime ECL: A lifetime ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring over the remaining lifetime | ||
Stage 3 | When assets are impaired | |||
To make that assessment, we compare the risk of default of the financial instrument as at the reporting date with such risk of default as at the date of initial recognition, taking into account reasonable supporting information that is available without undue cost or effort and is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition. Supporting information also includes historical default data held by us and analysis conducted by internal credit risk rating specialists.
We assign an internal credit risk rating to each individual exposure based on observable data and historical experiences that have been found to have a reasonable correlation with the risk of default. The internal credit risk rating is determined by considering both qualitative and quantitative factors that indicate the risk of default, which may vary depending on the nature of the exposure and the present valuetype of estimated future cash flow (excluding anticipated future credit losses) discounted atborrower.
We accumulate information after analyzing the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition).
If the financial asset in question is a loan or receivable with a floating rate, the discount rate usedinformation regarding exposure to evaluate impairment loss is the current effective interest rate defined in the relevant transaction agreement. The present value of estimated future cash flows of secured financial assets is calculated by including cash flows from collateral after deducting costs to acquire and sell the collateral, regardless of the probability of realization of such collateral.
In assessing collective impairment, we rate and classify financial assets based on credit risk assessment orand default information by the type of product and borrower as well as results of internal credit risk assessment. For some portfolios, we use information obtained from external credit rating assessment process that takes into account asset type, industry, regional location, collateral type, delinquency and other relevant factors.
Future cash flow of financial assets applicableWe apply statistical techniques to collective impairment assessment is estimated by using statistical modeling of historical trends ofestimate (i) the probability of default timingfor the remaining life of recoveriesthe exposure from the accumulated data and (ii) the changes in the estimated probability of default over time.
We use the indicators defined as per portfolio to determine the significant increase in credit risk. Such indicators generally consist of changes in the risk of default estimated from changes in the internal credit risk rating, qualitative factors, days of delinquency and others.
We consider a financial asset to be in default if it meets one or more of the following conditions:
if a borrower is overdue 90 days or more from the contractual payment date, or
if we determine that it is not possible to recover principal and interest without enforcing the collateral on a financial asset.
We use the following indicators when determining whether a borrower is in default:
qualitative factors (e.g., breach of contract terms),
quantitative factors (e.g., if the same borrower does not perform more than one payment obligations to us, the number of days past due per payment obligation. However, in the case of a specific portfolio, we use the number of days past due for each financial instrument), and
internal and external data.
The definition of default applied by us generally conforms to the definition of default defined for regulatory capital management purposes. However, depending on the situation, the information used to determine whether default has incurred and the amountextent thereof may vary.
We measure expected credit losses on a forward-looking basis, and expected credit losses reflects information presented by internal experts based on a variety of sources. For purposes of estimating such forward-looking information, we utilize economic outlook and projections published by domestic and overseas research institutes or government and public agencies.
We reflect future macroeconomic conditions anticipated from a bias-free, neutral standpoint in measuring expected credit losses. Expected credit losses in this respect reflect conditions that are most likely to occur and are based on the same assumptions that we use in our business plan and management strategy.
Key variables used in measuring expected credit losses are as follows:
Probability of default (PD)
Loss given default (LGD)
Exposure at default (EAD)
These variables have been estimated from historical experience data by using statistical techniques developed internally by Shinhan Bank and have been adjusted to reflect forward-looking information. When measuring expected credit losses on financial assets, Shinhan Bank reflects a period of expected credit loss incurred,measurement based on a contractual maturity. The Bank takes into consideration the extension rights held by a borrower when deciding the contractual maturity.
Risk factors such as adjusted for management’s judgment asPD, LGD and EAD are collectively estimated according to whether current economic andthe following criteria:
Type of products,
Internal credit conditions are suchrisk rating,
Type of collateral,
Loan-to-value ratio,
Industry that the impairment lossesborrower belongs to,
Location of the borrower or collateral, and
Days of delinquency.
The criteria for classification of groups are likelyperiodically reviewed to be greater or less than suggested by historical modeling. When adjusting future cash flow based on historical modeling, we ensuremaintain homogeneity of the group and are adjusted if necessary. We use external benchmark information to supplement internal information for a
particular portfolio that such adjustments are in line with changes and trends of observable data. Methodologies and assumptions used to estimate future cash flow are evaluated on a regular basis in order to reduce any discrepancy between impairment loss estimation and actual loss.does not have sufficient internal data accumulated from the past experience. See “Item 5.A. Operating Results — Critical Accounting Policies — Impairment of Financial Assets — Allowance for Loan Losses.Credit Losses on Loans.”
Corporate Loans
We review corporate loans annually for potential impairment through a formal credit review. In addition, our loan officers consider the credits for impairment throughout the year if there is an indication that an impairment event has occurred.
Under IFRS, a loan is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and if the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset and can be estimated reliably. We consider, among others, the following loans to be impaired:
Loan loss allowances for corporate loans are established based on whether a particular loan is impaired. Corporate loans with relatively small balances are evaluated collectively for impairment as they are managed collectively.
— Loans individually identified for review and considered impaired
Consistent with the internal credit risk monitoring policies, we evaluate impaired loans with relatively large balances (typically more thanW3 billion) individually for impairment. Loan loss allowances for these loans are generally established by discounting the estimated future cash flows (both principal and interest) we expect to receive using the loan’s effective interest rate. We consider the likelihood of all possible outcomes in determining our best estimate of expected future cash flows. Management consults closely with individual loan officers and reviews the cash flow assumptions used to ensure these estimates are valid.
We establish allowances for impaired corporate loans when the discounted cash flow of the loan is lower than its carrying amount. The allowance is equal to the difference between the discounted cash flow amount of the loan and its carrying amount.
We may also measure impairment by reference to the loan’s observable market price; however this information is not commonly available in Korea.
— Loans collectively evaluated for impairment
We also establish allowances for impaired corporate loans with relatively small balances (typicallyW3 billion or less). We manage these loans on a portfolio basis and therefore collectively evaluate them for
impairment since it is impractical to analyze each such loan on an individual basis. The allowance for such loans is determined based on loss factors taking into consideration past performance of the portfolio, previous loan loss history and charge-off information.
We identify loss factors based on the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model using a statistical tool with look-back periods longer than a year. For impaired corporate loans whose amounts are relatively small, we use the collective DCF model, under which cash flow projections for the relevant loans are not individually computed for each borrower, but are collectively computed for a group of loans sharing similar characteristics (for example, retail versus corporate, secured versus unsecured, and so forth), except that, when we discount the projected cash flow at the present value, we apply the interest rate effective prior to impairment specific to each borrower.
— Loans not specifically identified as impaired
We establish allowances collectively for non-impaired corporate loans to reflect losses incurred within the portfolio which have not yet been specifically identified as impaired. We use the probability of default / loss given default method, also known as the Advanced Internal Rating-Based (“AIRB”) approach under Basel II, to calculate the historical loss rate on migration analysis based on measurable long-term risk factors such as probability of default from risk grading and loss given default based on the Basel II framework.
As for the probability of default-based loan grouping, corporate loans are grouped into different risk classes based on the credit rating assigned by the relevant credit evaluation model, and retail loans are grouped into different risk classes based on the type of the loan, maturity structure and the duration of delinquency.
As for the loss given default-based loan grouping, secured loans are grouped into different risk classes based on the type of collateral, the location of the collateral and the loan-to-value ratio to which they are subject, and unsecured loans are grouped into different risk classes based on the type of the loan.
Retail Loans
We consider the following retail loans to be impaired for an individual assessment of impairment:
The provisioning policy for retail loans is similar to that for corporate loans, except that different groupings are used for retail loans for purposes of determining probability of default and loss given default in that all retail loans, regardless of their size, are collectively (rather than individually) assessed due to difficulties in obtaining personal information, such as personal income and assets.
For loan losses for retail loans, we also establish allowances based on loss factors taking into consideration the historical performance of the portfolio, previous loan loss history and charge-off information over a nine-year look-back period for loans secured by real estate and a four-year look-back period for unsecured loans and other secured loans.
We further adjust the loss factors based on factors that may impact loss recognition which have not been adequately captured by our historical analysis. These factors include:
Credit Cards
We establishPrior to 2017, we established an allowance for the credit card portfolio using a roll-rate model. A roll-rate model is a statistical tool used to monitor the progression of loans based on aging of the balance and established loss rates. The actual loss rates derived from this model are used to project the percentage of losses within each aging category based on performance over a five-year look-back period. Basel II requires a minimum of nine years of data collection (consisting of a minimum five-year observation period for defaults and a minimum four-year observation period for post-default recoveries) as a necessary condition to using the internal model approach. After its merger with LG Card in 2007, Shinhan Card has worked to establish a risk management system and met the Basel II nine-year data collection requirement in October 2016. Through the operation of a credit review system and risk management system based on Basel II requirements, we have gained the necessary data to create internal models that can calculate PD/LGD and credit conversion factors for different groups of borrowers of financial assets.
At the end of December 2016, the Financial Supervisory Service granted Shinhan Card final approval to use the internal model approach. During the first quarter of 2017, Shinhan Card completed the establishment of the IFRS loan loss calculation system, for example, by replacing Basel II risk components with risk components for financial reporting in accordance with IAS 39, and Shinhan Card revised the calculation methodology of loan losses from a roll-rate model to an internal model approach.
The expected percentageinternal model approach calculates separate default rates and loss given default for different groups of loss reflects estimatescustomers, differentiated based on the characteristics of both the default probability within each loan aging categorycustomers and the magnitudeproducts that they use. The internal model approach disaggregates customers into more than twice the number of loss. Generally, loans that are seven months orgroups than does the roll-rate model. Whereas the roll-rate model does not distinguish between customers with high and low risks of default when calculating roll rates, the internal model approach allows for a more past due are charged off. We consider adjusting oursophisticated calculation of loan loss rate forthat reflects the magnitude of loss after accounting for the historical recovery of charged off credits when establishing the allowance.customers’ credit ratings.
We segment our credit card portfolio into several product types and perform separate roll-rate analysis for such product types to reflect the different risks and characteristics of each such product type.
We further consider adjusting the results from the roll-rate analysis based on factors that may impact loss recognition which have not been adequately captured by our historical analysis. These factors include:
The actual amount of incurred loan losses may vary from the estimate of incurred losses due to changes in economic conditions or industry or geographic concentrations. We also monitor differences between estimated and actual incurred loan losses through procedures including detailed periodic assessments by senior management of both individual loans and credit portfolios and the models used to estimate incurred loan losses in those portfolios.
We determine whether credit card loans are impaired using criteria similar to those used for corporate loans, except that upon the closure of business by merchants using our credit card services, the related credit card loans are deemed impaired.
We consider a credit card or card loan to be delinquent if payment on such account is not received when first due and the amount outstanding is greater thanW10,000. Our general policy is to be proactive in itsour collection procedures. We believe that card accounts which are in early stages of delinquency are easier to collect than those accounts which have been delinquent for a longer period of timeprocedures, and we therefore we emphasize collections at an early stage of delinquency, although we increase the level of collection efforts as the delinquency period increases with respect to the relevant account. Efforts to collect from cardholders whose account balances are up to 30 days past due include the use of non-face-to-face channels such as texting and calling and are generally made by our credit support centers at Shinhan Card. Our credit support centers classify delinquent customers based upon three criteria: the expected level of difficulty in collection, the nature of the customer and the customer’s contribution to Shinhan Card’s profitability. By implementing collection activities tailored to each such category of customers, we seek to maximize efficiency in our collection efforts.
For credit card accounts with balances that are more than 30 days past due, we generally assign collection to our collection branches. During the first two monthscompanies such as Shinhan Credit Information, a subsidiary of their appointment, these collection branches rely on postal or telephone noticeours, and take measures to locate and provisionally attach accounts receivables or other properties of
the delinquent cardholders. After the initial two-month period, the collection branches commence compulsory execution procedures against the delinquent cardholders’ accounts receivables or other properties to secure the amount of outstanding balances. During the entire period managed by branches, we offer restructured card loan and reduction programs.Mirae Credit Information. For credit card accounts that are charged off, we outsource collection to external collection centerscompanies such as Shinhan Credit Information, which is our subsidiary, and Mirae Credit Information Services Corp. and Koryo Credit Information.

Non-Performing Loan Strategy
One of our primary objectives is to prevent our loans from becomingnon-performing. Through our corporate credit rating system, which is designed to prevent our loan officers from extending new loans to borrowers with high credit risks based on the borrower’s credit rating, we seek to reduce credit risk related to futurenon-performing loans. Our early warning system is designed to bring any sudden increase in a borrower’s credit risk to the attention of our loan officers, who then closely monitor such loans.
If a loan becomesnon-performing notwithstanding such preventive mechanism, an officer at the branch level responsible for monitoringnon-performing loans will commence due diligence on the borrower’s assets, send a notice demanding payment or a notice that we will take or prepare for legal action.
At the same time, we also initiate ournon-performing loan management process, which includes:
identifying loans subject to a proposed sale by assessing the estimated losses from such sale based on the estimated recovery value of collateral, if any, for suchnon-performing loans;
identifying loans subject tocharge-off based on the estimated recovery value of collateral, if any, for suchnon-performing loans and the estimated rate of recovery of unsecured loans; and
to a limited extent, identifying commercial loans subject to normalization efforts based on the cash-flow situation of the borrower.
Once the details of anon-performing loan are identified, we pursue early solutions for recovery. Actual recovery efforts fornon-performing loans are handled by the relevant department, depending on the nature of such loans and the borrower, among others. The officers or agents of the responsible departments and units use a variety of methods to resolvenon-performing loans, including:
making phone calls and paying visits to the borrower to request payment;
continuing to assess and evaluate assets of our borrowers; and
if necessary, initiating legal action such as foreclosures, attachment and litigation.
In order to promote speedy recovery on loans subject to foreclosures and litigation, the branch responsible for handling these loans may transfer them to the relevant unit at headquarters.
Our policy is to commence legal action within one month after default on promissory notes and four months after delinquency of payment on other types of loans. For loans to insolvent or bankrupt borrowers or when we conclude that it is not possible to recover through normal procedures, we take prompt legal actions regardless of the grace period.
In addition to making efforts to collect on thesenon-performing loans, we take other measures to reduce the level of ournon-performing loans, including:
sellingnon-performing loans to third parties including the Korea Asset Management Corporation;
entering into asset-backed securitization transactions with respect tonon-performing loans;
managing retail loans that are three months or more past due through Shinhan Credit Information under an agency agreement; and
using third-party collection agencies including credit information companies.
In 2016,2019, we soldnon-performing loans in the amount ofW8841 billion to third parties, includingW3128 billion transferred to Aon Real Estate LLC, a real estate project financingJB Woori Capital Co., Ltd, an investment management company. Loans transferred to third parties generally meet the criteria of true sale and are derecognized accordingly.

Our total allowance for loancredit losses increasedon loans decreased byW4340 billion, or 1.9%1.5%, toW2,3612,685 billion as of December 31, 20162019 fromW2,3182,725 billion as of December 31, 2015,2018, primarily due to an increase in exposure to retail customers during 2016the sale and transfer of debt securities as well as a decrease in charge-off for non-performing loans compared to 2015.
Our total allowance for loan losses decreased byW183 billion, or 7.32%, toW2,318 billion as of December 31, 2015 fromW2,501 billion as of December 31, 2014, primarily due to improvement in asset quality of our corporate loans largely resulting from an increase in the sale, transfer and charge-offs ofnon-performing loans.
Our total allowance for credit losses on loans increased byW414 billion, or 17.9%, toW2,725 billion as of December 31, 2018 fromW2,311 billion as of December 31, 2017, primarily due to the replacement of the model for impairment loss from the “incurred loss” model under the previous guidance to the “expected credit loss” model under IFRS 9 adopted from January 1, 2018, which requires us to recognize impairment loss earlier and on a more forward-looking basis.

Loan Charge-offs
Our gross charge-offs increased by 0.4% fromW933 billion in 2018 toW937 billion in 2019, primarily due to an increase in the amount of charge-offs for credit cards in 2019 compared to 2018. Our gross charge-offs decreased by 3.3%12.0% fromW1,4411,060 billion in 20152017 toW1,393933 billion in 2016,2018, primarily due to a decrease in the amount of charge-offs for credit card loanscards in 2018 compared to 2015.2017. Our gross charge-offs increaseddecreased by 23.9% fromW1,1871,393 billion in 20142016 toW1,4411,060 billion in 2015,2017, primarily due to our ongoing effortsa decrease in the amount of charge-offs for corporate loans in 2017 compared to improve asset quality.2016.
In 2016,2019, thecharge-off on restructured loans amounted toW118138 billion, of whichW22230 billion was related to loans converted into equity securities as part of restructuring. With respect to a loan that we consider to be uncollectible regardless of any modification of terms, we convert a portion of such loan into equity securities following negotiation with the borrower and charge off the remainder of such loan as previously discussed in “— Troubled Debt Restructurings —Charge-off of Loans Subject to Restructuring.” The equity securities so converted are recorded at fair value, based on the market value of such securities if available or the appraisal value of such securities by an outside appraiser if a market value is unavailable.
We attempt to minimize loans to be charged off by practicing a sound credit approval process based on credit risk analysis prior to extending loans and a systematic management of outstanding loans. Forcharge-off of restructured loans, see “— Loan Modification Programs for Loans under Restructuring —Charge-off of Restructured Loans” above.
Loans to beCharged-off
Loans are charged off if they are deemed to be uncollectible by falling under any of the following categories:
loans for which collection is not foreseeable due to insolvency or bankruptcy, dissolution or the termination of the debtor’s business;
loans for which collection is not foreseeable due to the death or disappearance of debtors;
loans for which collection expenses exceed the collectablecollectible amount;
loans for which collection is not possible through legal or any other means;
payments in arrears in respect of credit cards that are overdue for more than six months;
payments outstanding on unsecured retail loans that are overdue for more than 12 months;
payments in arrears in respect of leases that are overdue for more than 12 months;
the portion of loans classified as “estimated loss,” net of any recovery from collateral, which is deemed to be uncollectible.; uncollectible;or
domestic loans that are required by the Financial Supervisory Service to becharged-off, or loans held by our foreign subsidiaries or branches for which acharge-off or special provisioning is required by the relevant regulatory authority.
Timeline forCharge-off
Shinhan Bank’s loans to becharged-off must becharged-off within one year of the month they are deemed to be uncollectible. If such loans are notcharged-off within one year, the reason for the delay must be reported to Shinhan Bank’s Audit Department.
Procedure forCharge-off Approval
An application for Shinhan Bank’s loans to becharged-off is submitted by the relevant branch or department to the Credit Collection Department. The Credit Collection Department refers the application to the Audit Department for their review to ensure compliance with theShinhan Bank’s internal procedures for charge-offs. The Credit Collection Department, after reviewing the application to confirm that it meets relevant requirements, seeks approval from the Financial Supervisory Service for the charge-offs, which is typically granted. Once the Financial Supervisory Service approves (except for household loans with estimated losses ofW510 million or less, whosecharge-off is considered automatically approved by the Financial Supervisory Service), loans arecharged-off upon approval by the President of Shinhan Bank. As for Shinhan Card, it generally charges off receivables that are 180 days past due following internal review.
Treatment of LoansCharged-off
Once loans are charged off, they are derecognized from our statements of financial position and are classified ascharged-off loans. We continue collection efforts in respect of these loans through third-party collection agencies, including the Korea Asset Management Corporation, and Shinhan Credit Information, which is our subsidiary. The General Manager of the Credit Collection Department must report to the Financial Supervisory Service the amounts of loans permanently written off or recovered during each reporting period.
Treatment of Collateral
When wedetermine that a loan collateralized by real estate cannot be recovered through normal collection channels, we generally petition a court to foreclose and sell the collateral through a court-supervised auction within one month after default and insolvency and within four months after delinquency. However, this procedure does not apply to companies under restructuring, recovery proceedings, workout or other court proceedings where there are restrictions on such auction procedures. Filing of such petition with the court generally encourages the debtor to repay the overdue loan. If a debtor ultimately fails to repay and the court grants its approval for foreclosure, we sell the collateral and recover the principal amount and interest accrued up to the sales price, net of expenses incurred from the auction. Foreclosure proceedings under the laws and regulations of Korea typically take seven months to one year from initiation to collection depending on the nature of the collateral.
Financial Statement Presentation
Our financial statements generally report as charges-offscharge-offs all unsecured retail loans whichthat are overdue for more than 12 months. Leases are charged off when past due for more than twelve months. For collateral dependent loans, we charge off the excess of the book value of the subject loan over the amount received or to be received from the sale of the underlying collateral when the collateral is sold as part of a foreclosure proceeding and its sale price becomes known through court publication as part of such proceeding.
Investment Portfolio
Investment Policy
We invest in and tradeWon-denominated and, to a lesser extent, foreign currency-denominated securities for our own account in order to:
maintain the stability and diversification of our assets;
maintain adequate sources ofback-up liquidity to match our funding requirements; and
supplement income from our core lending activities.
When making an investment decision with respect to particular securities, we consider macroeconomic trends, industry analysis and credit evaluation, among others.
Our securities investment activities are subject to a number of regulatory guidelines, including limitations prescribed under the Financial Holding Companies Act and the Banking Act. Generally, a financial holding company is prohibited from acquiring more than 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of another finance-related company (other than its direct and indirect subsidiaries). Furthermore, under these regulations, Shinhan Bank must limit its investments in shares and securities with a maturity in excess of three years (other than monetary stabilization bonds issued by the Bank of Korea and national government bonds) to 100.0% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any deductions) of Shinhan Bank. Generally, Shinhan Bank is also prohibited from acquiring more than 15.0% of the shares with voting rights issued by any other corporation (other than for the purpose of establishing or acquiring a subsidiary). Further information on the regulatory environment governing our investment activities is set out in “— Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Banks — Restrictions on Investments in Property,” “— Principal Regulations Applicable to Banks — Restrictions on Shareholdings in Other Companies,” “— Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Liquidity” and “— Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Restrictions on Shareholdings in Other Companies.”

Credit-Related Commitments and Guarantees
In the normal course of our operations, we make various commitments and guarantees to meet the financing and other business needs of our customers. Commitments and guarantees are usually in the form of, among others, commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, standby letters of credit and performance guarantees. The contractual amount of these financial instruments represents the maximum possible loss amount if the account party draws down the commitment or we should fulfill our obligation under the guarantee and the account party fails to perform under the contract.
The following table sets forth our credit-related commitments and guarantees as of the dates indicated.

We have credit-related commitments that are not reflected onin our statements of financial position, which primarily consist of commitments to extend credit and commercial letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit, including credit lines, represent unfunded portions of authorizations to extend credit in the form of loans. These commitments expire on fixed dates and a customer is required to comply with predetermined conditions to draw funds under the commitments. Commercial letters of credit are undertakings on behalf of customers authorizing third parties to make drawdowns up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions. They are generally short-term and collateralized by the underlying shipments of goods to which they relate.
We also have guarantees that are recorded on our statements of financial position at their fair value at inception which are amortized over the life of the guarantees. Such guarantees generally include standby letters of credit, other financial and performance guarantees and liquidity facilities to special purpose entities. Standby
letters of credit are irrevocable obligations to pay third-party beneficiaries when our customers fail to repay loans or debt instruments, which are generally in foreign currencies. A substantial portion of these standby letters of credit areis secured by collateral, including trade-related documents. Other financial and performance guarantees are irrevocable assurances that we will pay beneficiaries if our customers fail to perform their obligations under certain contracts. Liquidity facilities to special purpose entities are irrevocable commitments to provide contingent liquidity credit lines to special purpose entities established by our customers in the event that a triggering event such as shortage of cash occurs.
The commitments and guarantees do not necessarily represent our exposure since they often expire unused.
Derivatives
As discussed under “— Business Overview“ — Our Principal Activities — Other Banking Services — Derivatives Trading” above, we engage in derivatives trading activities primarily on behalf of our customers so that they may hedge their risks and also enter intoback-to-back derivatives with other financial institutions to cover exposures arising from such transactions. In addition, we enter into derivatives transactions to hedge against risk exposures arising from our own assets and liabilities, some of which arenon-trading derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.
The following table shows, as of December 31, 2016,2019, the gross notional or contractual amounts of derivatives held or issued for (i) trading and(ii) non-trading that qualify for hedge accounting.

Funding
We obtain funding from a variety of sources, both domestic and foreign. Our principal source of funding is customer deposits obtained from our banking operations, and we from time to time issue equity and debt securities, including preferred shares. In addition, our subsidiaries acquire funding through call money, borrowings from the Bank of Korea, other short-term borrowings, corporate debentures and other long-term debt, including debt and equity securities issuances, asset-backed securitizations and repurchase transactions, to complement, or if necessary, replace funding through customer deposits. For further details relating to funding by us and our subsidiaries, see “Item 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
Deposits
Although the majority of our bank deposits are short-term, the majority of our depositors have historically rolled over their deposits at maturity, providing our banking operation with a stable source of funding.

Risk Management
Overview
As a financial services provider, we are exposed to various risks relating to our lending, credit card, insurance, securities investment, trading and leasing businesses, our deposit taking and borrowing activities and our operating environment. The principal risks to which we are exposed are credit risk, market risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and operational risk. These risks are recognized, measured and reported in accordance with risk management guidelines established at our holding company level and implemented at the subsidiary level through a carefully stratifiedchecks-and-balances system.
We believe that our risk management system has been instrumental to building our reputation as a well-managed and prudent financial service provider and withstanding various external shocks. In particular, during the global financial crisis of 2008 and 2009, we believe our risk management provided effective early warning signals which helped us to proactively reconfigure our asset portfolio and substantially reduce our exposure to troubled debtors and thereby avoid what could have been a substantially greater credit loss during such crisis, and we are carefully upgrading and refining our risk management system in the face of current and potential economic difficulties at global, regional and domestic levels.
Our group-wide risk management philosophy is to instill a culture of effective risk management and awareness at all levels of our organization and pursue a proper balance between risk and return in our business activities in order to achieve a sustainable growth. In particular, our group-wide risk management is guided by the following core principles:
carrying out all business activities within prescribed risk tolerance levels and prudently balancing profitability and risk management;
standardizing the risk management process and monitoring compliance at a group-wide level;
operating a prudent risk management decision making system backed by active participation by management;
creating and operating a risk management organization independent of business activities;
operating a performance management system that enhances clear and prompt identification of risks when making business decisions;
aiming to achieve preemptive and practical risk management; and
prudent preparation for known and unknown contingencies.
We take the following steps to implement the foregoing risk management principles:
| • | risk capital management — Risk capital refers to capital necessary to compensate for losses in case of a potential risk being realized, and risk capital management refers to the process of asset management based on considerations of risk exposure and risk appetite for our total assets so that we can maintain an appropriate level of risk capital. As part of our risk capital management, we and our subsidiaries have adopted and maintain various risk planning processes and reflect such risk planning in our business and financial planning. We also maintain a risk limit management system to ensure that risks in our business do not exceed prescribed limits. |
| • | risk monitoring — We proactively, preemptively and periodically review risks that may impact our overall operations, including through a multidimensional risk monitoring system. Currently, each of our subsidiaries is required to report to the holding company any factors that could have a material impact on group-wide risk management, and the holding company reports to our chief risk officer and other members of our senior management the results of risk monitoring weekly, monthly and on anad hoc basis as needed. In addition, we perform preemptive risk management through a “risk dashboard |
system” under which we closely monitor any increase in asset size, risk levels and sensitivity to |
external factors with respect to the major asset portfolios of each of our subsidiaries, and to the extent such monitoring yields any warning signals, we promptly analyze the causes and, if necessary, formulate and implement actions in response thereto. |
| • | risk review — Prior to entering any new business, offering any new products or changing any major policies, we review any relevant risk factors based on a prescribed risk management checklist and, in the case of changes for which assessment of risk factors is difficult, perform reasonable decision-making in order to avoid taking any unduly risky action. The risk management departments of all our subsidiaries are required to review all new businesses, products and services prior to their launch and closely monitor the development of any related risks following their launch, and in the case of any action that involves more than one subsidiary, the relevant risk management departments are required to consult with the risk management team at the holding company level prior to making any independent risk reviews. |
| • | crisis management — We maintain a group-wide risk management system to detect the early |

Our risk management system is organized along the following hierarchy (from top to bottom): at the holding company level, the Group Risk Management Committee, the Group Risk Management Council, the Group Chief Risk Officer and the Group Risk Management Team, and at the subsidiary level, the Risk Management Committee, the Chief Risk Officer and the Risk Management Team of the relevant subsidiary. The Group Risk Management Committee, which is under the supervision of our holding company’s board of directors, sets the basic group-wide risk management policies and strategies. Our Group Chief Risk Officer reports to the Group Risk Management Committee, and the Group Risk Management Council coordinates the risk management policies and strategies at the group level as well as at the subsidiary level among each of our subsidiaries. Each of our subsidiaries also has a separate Risk Management Committee, Risk Management Working Committee and Risk Management Team, whose tasks are to implement the group-wide risk management policies and strategies at the subsidiary level as well as to set risk management policies and strategies specific to such subsidiary in line with the group-wide guidelines. We also have the Group Risk Management Team, which supports our Chief Risk Officer in his or her risk management and supervisory role.
In order to maintain the group-wide risk at an appropriate level, we use a hierarchical risk limit system under which the Group Risk Management Committee assigns reasonable risk limits for the entire group and each of our subsidiaries, and the Risk Management Committee and the Risk Management Working Committee of each of our subsidiaries manage the subsidiary-specific risks by establishing and managing risk limits in more detail by type of risk and type of product for each department and division within such subsidiary. Further details follow.

The following is a flowchart of our risk management system at the holding company level and the subsidiary level.
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk, which is the risk of loss from default by borrowers, other obligors or other counterparties to the transactions that we have entered into, is the greatest risk we face. Our credit risk management encompasses all areas of credit that may result in potential economic loss, including not just transactions that are recorded on our balance sheets, but alsooff-balance-sheet transactions such as guarantees, loan commitments and derivatives transactions. A substantial majority of our credit risk relates to the operations of Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Card.
Credit Risk Management of Shinhan Bank
Shinhan Bank’s credit risk management is guided by the following principles:
achieve a profit level corresponding to the level of risks involved;
improve asset quality and achieve an optimal mix of asset portfolios;
avoid excessive loan concentration in a particular borrower or sector;
closely monitor the borrower’s ability to repay the debt; and
provide financial support to advance the growth of select customers.
Major policies for Shinhan Bank’s credit risk management, including Shinhan Bank’s overall credit risk management plan and credit policy guidelines, are determined by the Risk Policy Committee of Shinhan Bank, the executive decision-making body for management of credit risk. The Risk Policy Committee is headed by the Chief Risk Officer, and also comprises of the Chief Credit Officer and the heads of each business unit. In order to separate the loan approval functions from credit policy decision-making, Shinhan Bank has a Credit Review Committee that performs credit review evaluations with a focus on improving the asset quality of and profitability from the loans being made and operates separately from the Risk Policy Committee. Both the Risk Policy Committee and the Credit Review Committee make decisions by a vote oftwo-thirds or more of the attending members of the respective committees, which must constitute at leasttwo-thirds of the respective committee members to satisfy the respective quorum.
Shinhan Bank complies with credit risk management procedures pursuant to internal guidelines and regulations and continually monitors and improves these guidelines and regulations. Its credit risk management procedures include:
credit evaluation and approval;
credit review and monitoring; and
credit risk assessment and control.
Credit Evaluation and Approval
All loan applicants and guarantors are subject to credit evaluation before approval of any loans. Credit evaluation of loan applicants areis carried out by senior officers of Shinhan Bank specifically charged with granting loan approvals. Loan evaluation is carried out by a group rather than by an individual reviewer through an objective and deliberative process. Credit ratings of loan applicants and guarantors influence loan interest rates, the level of internal approval required, credit exposure limits, calculation of potential losses and estimated cost of capital, and therefore are determined objectively and independently by the relevant business unit. Shinhan Bank uses a credit scoring system for retail loans and a credit-risk rating system for corporate loans.
Each of Shinhan Bank’s borrowers is assigned a credit rating, which is based on a comprehensive internal credit evaluation system that considers a variety of criteria. For retail borrowers, the credit rating takes into
account the borrower’s biographic details, past dealings with Shinhan Bank and external credit rating information, among other things. For corporate borrowers, the credit rating takes into account financial indicators as well asnon-financial indicators such as industry risk, operational risk and management risk, among other things. The credit rating, once assigned, serves as the fundamental instrument for Shinhan Bank’s credit risk management, and is applied to a wide range of credit risk management processes, including credit approval, credit limit management, loan pricing and computation of allowance for loan losses.credit losses on loans. Shinhan Bank has separate credit evaluation systems for retail customers, SOHO customers and corporate customers, which are further segmented and refined to meet Basel II requirements, which requirements have not changed under Basel III. See “Item 5.A. Operating Results — Critical Accounting Policies — Impairment of Financial Assets — Allowance for Loan Losses.Credit Losses on Loans.”
Retail Loans
Loan applications for retail loans are reviewed in accordance with Shinhan Bank’s credit scoring system and the objective statistics models for secured and unsecured loans maintained and operated by Shinhan Bank’s Retail Banking Division. Shinhan Bank’s credit scoring system is an automated credit approval system used to evaluate loan applications and determine the appropriate pricing for the loan, and takes into account factors such as a borrower’s personal information, transaction history with Shinhan Bank and other financial institutions and other relevant credit information. The applicant is assigned a score, which is used to determine (i) whether to approve the applicant’s loan, (ii) the amount of loan to be granted, and (iii) the interest rates thereon. The applicant’s score also determines whether the applicant is approved for credit, conditionally approved, subject to further assessment, or denied. If the applicant becomes subject to further assessment, the appropriate discretionary body, either at the branch level or at the headquarter level, makes a reassessment based on qualitative as well as quantitative factors, such as credit history, occupation and past relationship with Shinhan Bank.
For mortgage and home equity loans and loans secured by real estate, Shinhan Bank evaluates the value of the real estate offered as collateral using a proprietary database, which contains information about real estate values throughout Korea. In addition, Shinhan Bank usesup-to-date information provided by third parties regarding the real estate market and property values in Korea. While Shinhan Bank uses internal staff from the processing centers to appraise the value of the real estate collateral, Shinhan Bank also hires certified appraisers
to review andco-sign the appraisal value of real estate collateral that have an appraisal value exceedingW3 billion, as initially determined by the processing centers. Shinhan Bank also reevaluates internally, on a summary basis, the appraisal value of collateral at least every year.
For loans secured by securities, deposits or other assets other than real estate, Shinhan Bank requires borrowers to observe specified collateral ratios in respect of secured obligations.
Corporate Loans
Shinhan Bank rates all of its corporate borrowers using internally developed credit evaluation systems. These systems consider a variety of criteria (quantitative, qualitative, financial andnon-financial) in order to standardize credit decisions and focus on the quality of borrowers rather than the size of loans. The quantitative considerations include the borrower’s financial and other data, while the qualitative considerations are based on the judgment of Shinhan Bank’s credit officers as to the borrower’s ability to repay. Financial considerations include financial variables and ratios based on customer’s financial statements, such as return on assets and cash flow to total debt ratios, andnon-financial considerations include, among other things, the industry to which the borrower’s businesses belong, the borrower’s competitive position in its industry, its operating and funding capabilities, the quality of its management and controlling stockholders (based in part on interviews with its officers and employees), technological capabilities and labor relations.
In addition, in order to enhance the accuracy of its internal credit reviews, Shinhan Bank also considers reports prepared by external credit rating services, such as Nice Information Service and Korea Enterprise Data, and monitors and improves the effectiveness of the credit risk-rating systems using a database that it updates continually with actual default records.
Based on the scores calculated under the credit rating system, which takes into account the evaluation criteria described above and the probability of default, Shinhan Bank assigns the borrower one of 23 grades (from the highest of AAA to the lowest ofD3). Grades AA through B are further broken down into “+”,” “0” or“-.” Grades AAA throughB- are classified as normal, grade CCC precautionary, and grades CC through D3non-performing. The credit risk-rating model is further differentiated by the size of the corporate borrower and the type of credit facilities.
Loan Approval Process
Loans are generally approved after evaluations and approvals by the relationship manager at the branch level as well as the committee of the applicable business unit at Shinhan Bank. The approval limit for retail loans is made based on Shinhan Bank’s automated credit scoring system. In the case of large corporate loans, approval limits are also reviewed and approved by a Credit Officer at the headquarter level. Depending on the size and the importance of the loan, the approval process is further reviewed by the Credit Officer Committee or the Master Credit Officer Committee. If the loan is considered significant or the amount exceeds the discretion limit of the Master Credit Officer Committee, further evaluation is made by the Credit Review Committee, which is Shinhan Bank’s highest decision-making body in relation to credit approval. The Credit Review Committee’s evaluation and approval of loan limits vary depending on the credit ratings of the borrowers as determined by Shinhan Bank’s internal credit rating system. For example, for borrowers with a credit rating ofB-, the Credit Review Committee evaluates and approves unsecured loans in excess ofW10 billion and secured loans in excess ofW15 billion, whereas for borrowers with a credit rating of AAA, the Credit Review Committee evaluates and approves unsecured loans in excess ofW40 billion and secured loans in excess ofW90 billion. The Credit Review Committee holds at least two meetings a week to approve applications forlarge-sized loans whose principal amounts exceed prescribed levels set by it.
The chart below summarizes the credit approval process of our banking operation. The Master Credit Officer and the Head of Business Division do not make individual decisions on loan approval, but are part of the decision-making process at the group level.
The reviewer at each level of the review process may in its discretion approve loans up to a maximum amount per loan assigned to such level. The discretionary loan approval limit for each level of the loan approval process takes into account the total amount of loans extended to the borrower, the credit level of the applicant based on credit review, the existence and value of collateral and the level of credit risk established by the credit rating system. The discretionary loan amount approval limit ranges fromW15 million for unsecured retail loans with a credit rating ofB-,which are subject to approvals by the retail branch manager, toW90 billion for secured
loanssecuredloans with a credit rating of AAA, which are subject to approvals by the Master Credit Officer Committee. Any loans exceeding the maximum discretionary loan amount approval limit must be approved by the Credit Review Committee.
Credit Review and Monitoring
Shinhan Bank continually reviews and monitors existing credit risks primarily with respect to borrowers. In particular, Shinhan Bank’s automated early warning system conducts daily examination for borrowers using over 206 financial andnon-financial factors, and the relationshipbranch manager and the credit officer must conduct periodic loan review and report to an independent loan review teamCredit Review Department which analyzes in detail the results and adjusts credit ratings accordingly. Based on these reviews, Shinhan Bank adjusts a borrower’s credit rating, credit limit applied interest rates and credit policies. In addition, the group credit rating of the borrower’s group, if applicable, may be adjusted following a periodic review of the main debtor groups, mostly comprised ofchaebols, as identified by the Governor of the Financial Supervisory Service based on their outstanding credit exposures, of which 64 were identified as such as of December 31, 2016.exposures. Shinhan Bank also continually reviews other factors, such as industry-specific conditions for the borrower’s business and its domestic and overseas asset base and operations, in order to ensure that the assigned ratings are appropriate. The Credit Review Department provides credit review reports, independent of underwriting, to the Chief Risk Officer on a monthly basis.
The early warning system performs automatic daily checks for borrowers to whom Shinhan Bank has more thanW1 billion of total exposure (which represents the total outstanding amount due from a borrower, net of collateral for deposit, installment savings, guarantees and import guarantee money) orW500 million of netexception for credit exposure (which represents total exposure net of effective collateral). When the early warning systems detectsdetect a warning signal, such signal and other findings from the monitoring are reviewed by the Credit Review Department in the case of a borrower to whom Shinhan Bank has more thanW2 billion of exposure, and by the relationshipbranch manager and the Credit Officer in the case of a borrower to whom Shinhan Bank hasW2 billion or less of exposure. In addition, Shinhan Bank carries out a preemptivetimeless credit review of each borrower in accordance with changes in credit risk factors based on changes in the economic environment. The results of such preemptivecredit review are continually reported to the Chief Risk Officer of Shinhan Bank.
Depending on the nature of the signals detected by the early warning system, a borrower may be classified as “deteriorating“worsening credit” and become subject to evaluation for a possible downgrade in credit rating, or may be
initially classified as “showing early warning signs” or become reinstated to the “normal borrower” status. For borrowers classified as “showing early warning signs,” the relevant relationshipbranch manager gathers information and conducts a review of the borrower to determine whether the borrower should be classified as a deterioratingworsening credit or whether to impose management improvement warnings or implement joint creditors’ management. If the borrower becomesnon-performing, Shinhan Bank’s collection department directly manages such borrower’s account in order to maximize recovery rate, and conducts auctions, court proceedings, sale of assets or corporate restructuring as needed.
Pursuant to the foregoing credit review and monitoring procedures and in order to promptly prevent deterioration of loan qualities, Shinhan Bank classifies potentially problematic borrowers into (i) borrowers that show early warning signals, (ii) borrowers that require precaution, (iii) borrowers that require observation and (iv) normal borrowers, and treats them differentially accordingly.
In order to curtail delinquency among its corporate customers, Shinhan Bank takes primarily the following measures: (i) systematic monitoring of borrowers with sizable outstanding loans, (ii) heightened monitoring of borrowers with bad credit history and/or belonging to troubled industries and (iii) assignment of industry-specific lending caps, as adjusted for whether specific industries are particularly sensitive to general business cycles and/or are troubled at a given time.
Systematic monitoring of borrowers with sizable outstanding loans. Shinhan Bank currently applies a heightened monitoring system to corporate borrowers with outstanding loans (other than guaranteed loans and loans secured by specified types of collaterals such as deposits with us or letters of credit) in the aggregate
amount ofW1 billion or more and borrowers with net outstanding loans (i.e., the outstanding loan amount minus the fair value of collaterals (other than as aforesaid) securing such loans) in the aggregate amount ofW500 million or more. Under this monitoring system, each such borrower is assigned one of the following ratings:
“Normal borrower” — a borrower who is determined to have a low probability of insolvency with a credit rating of B- or above that are deemed to carry a low risk of default;CCC(sub-borrower rating applicable);
“Borrower that requires observation” — a borrower that carries some risk of potential defaultaffecting the corporate insolvency in the future and therefore requires periodic monitoringis subject to consistent observation to detect any elevationchange of such risk;
“Borrower that requires precaution” — a borrower with a possibility of insolvency due to an elevatedincrease in risk of default and therefore requires detailed reassessmentinspection of the credit quality of such borrower and precaution in extending any further loans;
“Borrower with early warning signs” — a borrower with a high levelpossibility of default risk;insolvency; and
“Problematic or reorganized borrower” — a borrower currently in default and either subject toundergoing rehabilitation procedures, such as management improvement plans, workout or restructuringcorporate recovery or showing no signs of recovery.
Shinhan Bank conducts systematic monitoring of the foregoing borrowers at intervals depending on the borrower’s credit rating (for example, every 12 months for “normal” borrowers with a credit rating of AAA to A, every nine months for “normal” borrowers with a credit rating ofA- to BBB+, every six months for a credit rating of BBB toB- and every three months for borrowers with a credit rating of CCC or below and borrowers not deemed to be “normal”). In addition, the loan reviewer may request more frequent monitoring if the borrower is showing signs of deteriorating credit quality. For borrowers with outstanding loan amounts ofW2 billion or more, Shinhan Bank also monitors the revenues and earnings of such borrower on a quarterly basis within 10seven weeks following the end of each quarter.
Heightened monitoring of borrowers with bad credit history and/or belonging to troubled industries. In addition to the systematic monitoring discussed above, Shinhan Bank also carries out additional monitoring for
borrowers that, among others, (i) are rated as “requiring observation,” “requiring precaution” or “with early warning signs” as noted above, (ii) have prior history of delinquency or restructuring or (iii) have borrowings that are classified as substandard or below. Based on the heightened monitoring of these borrowers, Shinhan Bank adjusts contingency planning as to how the overall asset quality of a specific industry should change for each phase of the business cycle, how Shinhan Bank should limit or reduce its exposure to such borrowers, and how our group-wide delinquency andnon-performing ratio would change, among other things.
Assignment of industry-specific lending caps. Shinhan Bank currently classifies loans to corporate borrowers by industry, and caps the aggregate amount of loans to each industry, which amount varies depending on the respective industry forecasts and industry-specific loan default rates, among other factors. By doing so, Shinhan Bank seeks to avoid concentration of loans in risky industries and subject loans to risky industries to heightened monitoring and risk management.
Shinhan Bank currently places the following industries with relatively high risk profiles on the “intensive management” watch list for heightened monitoring and management: real estate supply, leasing and service; restaurants; accommodations; construction; shipbuilding; shipping; non-metallic minerals; iron, steel and non-ferrous metals; oil/chemicals (excluding petroleum refining and cosmetics); and golf course operations. For each of these industries, Shinhan Bank enforces a conservative cap on the aggregate amount of loans to such industry, and the business units responsible for exceeding such limits are penalized in their performance evaluations, which would have a negative impact on the pay and promotion of the employees belonging to such units.
Credit Risk Assessment and Control
In order to assess credit risk in a systematic manner, Shinhan Bank has developed and upgraded systems designed to quantify credit risk based on selection and monitoring of various statistics, including delinquency rate,non-performing loan ratio, expected loan losscredit losses on loans and weighted average risk rating.
Shinhan Bank controls loan concentration by monitoring and managing loans at two levels: portfolio level and individual loan account level. In order to maintain portfolio-level credit risk at an appropriate level, Shinhan Bank manages its loans usingvalue-at-risk (“VaR”) limits for the entire bank as well as for each of its business units. In order to prevent concentration of risk in a particular borrower or borrower class, Shinhan Bank also manages credit risk by borrower, industry, country and other detailed categories.
Shinhan Bank measures credit risk using internally accumulated data. Shinhan Bank measures expected and unexpected losses with respect to total assets monthly, which Shinhan Bank refers to when setting risk limits for, and allocating capital to, its business groups. Expected loss is calculated based on the probability of default, the loss given default, the exposure at default and the past bankruptcy rate and recovery rate, and Shinhan Bank provides allowance for loancredit losses on loans accordingly. Shinhan Bank makes provisioning at a level which is the higher of the Financial Supervisory Service requirement or Shinhan Bank’s internal calculation. Unexpected loss is predicted based on VaR, which is used to determine compliance with the aggregate credit risk limit for Shinhan Bank as well as the credit risk limit for the relevant department within Shinhan Bank. Shinhan Bank uses the AIRB method as proposed by the Basel Committee to compute VaR at the account-specific level as well as to measure risk adjusted performance.
Credit Risk Management of Shinhan Card
Major policies for Shinhan Card’s credit risk management are determined by Shinhan Card’s Risk Management Council, and Shinhan Card’s Risk Management Committee is responsible for approving them. Shinhan Card’s Risk Management Council is headed by the Chief Risk Officer, and also comprises of the heads of each business unit, supporting unit and relevant department at Shinhan Card. Shinhan Card’s Risk Management Council convenes at least once every month and may also convene on anad hocbasis as needed. Shinhan Card’s Risk Management Committee is comprised of threeNon-Standing Directors. Shinhan Card’s Risk Management Committee convenes at least once every quarter and may also convene on anad hocbasis as needed.
The risk of loss from default by the cardholders or credit card loan borrowers is Shinhan Card’s greatest credit risk. Shinhan Card manages its credit risk based on the following principles:
achieve profit at a level corresponding to the level of risks involved;
improve asset quality and achieve an optimal mix of asset portfolios; and
closely monitor borrower’s ability to repay the debt.
Credit Card Approval Process
Shinhan Card uses an automated credit scoring system to approve credit card applications or credit card authorizations. The credit scoring system is divided into twosub-systems: the behavior scoring system and the
application scoring system. The behavior scoring system is based largely on the credit history of the cardholder or borrower, and the application scoring system is based largely on personal information of the applicant. For credit card applicants with whom we have an existing relationship, Shinhan Card’s credit scoring system considers internally gathered information such as the ability to repay, total assets, the length of the existing relationship and the applicant’s contribution to Shinhan Card’s profitability. The credit scoring system also automatically conducts credit checks on all credit card applicants. Shinhan Card gathers information about the applicant’s transaction history with financial institutions, including banks and credit card companies, from a number of third party credit reporting agencies including, among others, National Information & Credit Evaluation Inc. and Korea Credit Bureau. These credit checks reveal a list of the delinquent customers of all credit card issuers in Korea.
If a credit score assigned to an applicant is above the minimum threshold, the application is approved unless overridden based on other considerations such as delinquencies with other credit card companies. For a credit card application by a long-standing customer with a good credit history, Shinhan Card may, on a discretionary
basis, approve the application notwithstanding the assigned credit score unless overridden by other considerations. All of these factors also serve as the basis for setting a credit limit for approved applications.
The following describes the process of how Shinhan Card sets credit limits for credit cards, cash advances and card loans:
| • | Credit purchase and cash advance limits — These limits are set based on the applicant’s limit request and Shinhan Card’s credit screening criteria. Unless a cardholder requests a reduction in the credit purchase and/or cash advance limit, Shinhan Card is required to provide prior notice to the cardholder for any reduction in such cardholder’s limit. However, if the |
| • | Card loan limit — This limit is set monthly by Shinhan Card based on the cardholder’s credit rating and transaction history. The card loan limit can be adjusted monthly based on the cardholder’s credit standing without prior notification. |
Monitoring
Shinhan Card continually monitors all cardholders and accounts using a behavior scoring system. The behavior scoring system predicts a cardholder’s payment pattern by evaluating the cardholder’s credit history, card usage and amounts, payment status and other relevant data. The behavior score is recalculated each month and is used to manage the accounts and approval of additional loans and other products to the cardholder. Shinhan Card also uses the scoring system to monitor its overall risk exposure and to modify its credit risk management strategy.
Loan Application Review andOn-going Credit Review
When reviewing new applications and conducting an ongoing credit review for retail loans, installment purchase loans and personal leases, Shinhan Card uses criteria substantially similar to those used in the credit underwriting system and the credit review system for cardholders. For retail loans, installment purchase loans and personal leases to existing cardholders, Shinhan Card reviews their card usage history in addition to other factors such as their income, occupation and assets.
Fraud Loss Prevention
Shinhan Card seeks to minimize losses from the fraudulent use of credit cards issued by it. Shinhan Card focuses on preventing fraudulent uses and, following the occurrence of a fraudulent use, makes investigations in order to make the responsible party bear the losses. Misuses of lost credit cards account for a substantial majority of Shinhan Card’s fraud-related losses. Through its fraud loss prevention system, Shinhan Card seeks to detect,
on a real-time basis, transactions that are unusual or inconsistent with prior usage history and calls are made to the relevant cardholders to confirm their purchases. A team at Shinhan Card dedicated to investigating fraud losses also examines whether the cardholder was at fault by, for example, not reporting a lost card or failing to endorse the card, or whether the relevant merchant was negligent in checking the identity of the user. Fault may also lie with delivery companies that fail to deliver credit cards to the relevant applicant. In such instances, Shinhan Card attempts to recover fraud losses from the responsible party. To prevent misuse of a card as well as to manage credit risk, Shinhan Card’s information technology system will automatically suspend the use of a card (i) when, as a result of ongoing monitoring, fraudulent use or loss of the card is suspected based on the accountholder’saccount holder’s credit score, or (ii) at the request of the accountholder.account holder.
Approximately 94%of Shinhan Card’s cardholders consent to Shinhan Card’s accessing their travel records to detect any misuse of credit cards while they are traveling abroad. Shinhan Card also offers cardholders additional fraud protection through afee-based texting service. At the cardholder’s option, Shinhan Card notifies
the cardholder of any credit card activity in his or her account by sending a text message to his or her mobile phone. This notification service allows customers to quickly and easily identify any fraudulent use of their credit cards.
Credit Risk Management of Shinhan Investment
In accordance with the guidelines of the Financial Supervisory Service, Shinhan Investment assesses its credit risks (including through VaR analyses) and allocates the maximum limit for the credit amount at risk by department. Shinhan Investment also assesses the counterparty risks in all credit-related transactions, such as loans, acquisition financings and derivative transactions and takes corresponding risk management measures. In assessing the credit risk of a corporate counterparty, Shinhan Investment considers such counterparty’s corporate credit rating obtained from Shinhan Group Corporate Credit Rating System. Through its risk management system, Shinhan Investment also closely monitors credit risk exposures by counterparty, industry, conglomerates, credit ratings and country. Shinhan Investment conducts credit risk stress tests on a daily basis based on probability of default and also conducts more advanced stress tests from time to time, the results of which are then reported to its management as well as the Group Chief Risk Officer to support group-wide credit risk management.
Credit Risk Management of Shinhan Life Insurance
Shinhan Life Insurance also assesses credit risks for all of its credit-related transactions, including provision of loans and acquisitions of financial instruments. Shinhan Life Insurance conducts additional risk reviews for new types of investments and financial instruments, such as those denominated in currencies it previously did not deal with. In assessing the credit risk of corporate customers, Shinhan Life Insurance considers such corporation’s credit rating obtained from Shinhan Group Corporate Credit Rating System. Through its risk management system Shinhan Life Insurance conducts credit risk monitoring based on the credit history of debtors. To closely monitor credit risk, Shinhan Life Insurance’s loan review department performs periodic loan review of its loan assets and planson-site inspections where necessary. Furthermore, in the retail business, Shinhan Life Insurance operates its own credit-scoring system to assess credit risk and update customers’ behavior scores.
Credit Risk Management of Orange Life Insurance
Orange Life Insurance evaluates and manages risk for all credit-related transactions, including transactions related to deposits, bonds, loans andover-the-counter derivatives. In addition, in order to manage counterparty credit risk, Orange Life Insurance sets limits on credit ratings of counterparties and also sets transaction limits per counterparty in order to prevent risk concentration on any particular counterparty. In addition, different measurement criteria for asset quality are used depending on the creditworthiness of the lender, and asset quality is continuously monitored and managed accordingly. In order to preemptively manage and prevent significant
credit risks, Orange Life Insurance establishes loan loss reserves when appropriate based on its assessment of asset quality and recognizes impairment loss on assets that are likely to incur significant loss or become difficult to collect.
Market Risk Management
Market risk is the risk of loss generated by fluctuations in market prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. The principal market risks to which we are exposed are interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, foreign exchange and equity price risk. These risks stem from our trading andnon-trading activities relating to financial instruments such as loans, deposits, securities and financial derivatives. We divide market risk into risks arising from trading activities and risks arising fromnon-trading activities.
Our market risks arise primarily from Shinhan Bank, and to a lesser extent, Shinhan Investment, our securities trading and brokerage subsidiary, which faces market risk relating to its trading activities.
Shinhan Bank’s Risk Management Committee establishes overall market risk management principles for both the trading andnon-trading activities of Shinhan Bank. Based on these principles, the Risk Policy Committee acts as the executive decision-making body in relation to Shinhan Bank’s market risks in terms of setting its risk management policies and risk limits in relation to market risks and assets and controlling market risks arising from trading andnon-trading activities of Shinhan Bank. The Risk Policy Committee consists of deputy presidents in charge of Shinhan Bank’s seven business groups and Shinhan Bank’s Chief Risk Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. At least on a monthly basis, the Risk Policy Committee reviews and approves reports relating to, among others, the position and VaR with respect to Shinhan Bank’s trading activities and the position, VaR, duration gap and market value analysis and net interest income simulation with respect to itsnon-trading activities. In addition, Shinhan Bank’s Risk ManagementEngineering Department comprehensively manages market risks on an independent basis from Shinhan Bank’s operating departments, and functions as the middle office of Shinhan Bank. Shinhan Bank measures market risk with respect to all assets and liabilities in bank accounts and trust accounts in accordance with the regulations promulgated by the Financial Services Commission.
Shinhan Investment manages its market risk based on its overall risk limit established by its risk management committee as well as the risk limits and detailed risk management guidelines for each product and department established by its Risk Management Working Committee. Shinhan Investment’s Risk Management Working Committee is the executive decision-making body for managing market risks related to Shinhan Investment, and determines, among other things, Shinhan Investment’s overall market risk management policies and strategies, and assesses and approves trading activities and limits. In addition, Shinhan Investment’s Risk Management Department manages various market risk limits and monitors operating conditions on an independent basis from Shinhan Investment’s operating departments. Shinhan Investment assesses the adequacy of these limits at least annually. In addition, Shinhan Investment assesses the market risks of its trading assets.
The assessment procedure is based on the standard procedures set by the Financial Supervisory Service as well as an internally developed model. Shinhan Investment assesses the risk amount and VaR, and manages the risk by setting a risk limit per sector as well as a VaR limit.
Shinhan Life Insurance manages its market risk based on its overall risk limit established by its risk management committee. Shinhan Life Insurance manages market risk in regard to assets that are subject to trading activities and foreign exchange positions. Shinhan Life Insurance assesses the market risk amount and the10-day VaR, a procedure based on the delta-normal method, and manages market risk by setting a10-day VaR limit. Shinhan Life Insurance assessed the adequacy of these limits at least annually and implements back tests on market risk determinations by comparing daily profit and loss againstone-day VaR in 2017.
Orange Life Insurance manages its foreign exchange risk resulting from the difference in its foreign currency assets and liabilities risk by setting risk limits on the amounts of foreign currency assets and monitoring
compliance with such limits on a daily basis, with such monitoring results submitted to the Bank of Korea. Orange Life Insurance does not face significant market risk from trading activities.
Shinhan Card does not have any assets with significant exposure to market risks and therefore does not maintain a risk management policy with respect to market risks.
We use financial information prepared on a separate basis according to IFRS for the market risk management of our subsidiaries and, unless otherwise specified herein, financial information in this annual report presented for quantitative market risk disclosure relating to our subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with IFRS on a separate basis.
Market Risk Exposure from Trading Activities
Shinhan Bank’s trading activities principally consist of:
trading activities to realize short-term profits from trading in the equity and debt securities markets and the foreign currency exchange markets based on Shinhan Bank’s short-term forecast of changes in market situation and customer demand, for its own account as well as for the trust accounts of Shinhan Bank’s customers; and
trading activities primarily to realize profits from arbitrage transactions involving derivatives such as swaps, forwards, futures and options, and, to a lesser extent, to sell derivative products to Shinhan Bank’s customers and to cover market risk associated with those trading activities.
Shinhan Investment’s trading activities principally consist of trading for customers and for proprietary accounts equity and debt securities and derivatives based on stock prices, stock indexes, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices.
As a result of these trading activities, Shinhan Bank is exposed principally to interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk and equity risk, and Shinhan Investment is exposed principally to equity risk and interest rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Shinhan Bank’s exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily fromWon-denominated debt securities, directly held or indirectly held through beneficiary certificates, and, to a lesser extent, from interest rate derivatives. Shinhan Bank’s exposure to interest rate risk arising from foreign currency-denominated trading debt securities is minimal since its net position in those securities is not significant. As Shinhan Bank’s trading accounts aremarked-to-market daily, it manages the interest rate risk related to its trading accounts using VaR, a market value-based tool.
Shinhan Investment’s interest rate risk arises primarily from management of its interest rate-sensitive asset portfolio, which mainly consists of debt securities, interest rate swaps and government bond futures, and the level of such risk exposure depends largely on the variance between the interest rate movement assumptions built into the asset portfolio and the actual interest rate movements and the spread between a derivative product and its underlying assets. Shinhan Investment quantifies and manages the interest rate-related exposure by daily conducting VaR and stress tests on amarked-to-market basis.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Shinhan Bank’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk mainly relates to its assets and liabilities, including derivatives such as foreign currency forwards and futures and currency swaps, which are denominated in currencies other than the Won. Shinhan Bank manages foreign currency exchange rate risk, including the corresponding risks faced by its overseas branches, on a consolidated basis by covering all of its foreign exchange spot and forward positions in both trading andnon-trading accounts.
Shinhan Bank’s net foreign currency open position represents the difference between its foreign currency assets and liabilities as offset against forward foreign currency positions, and is Shinhan Bank’s principal exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Risk Policy Committee oversees Shinhan Bank’s foreign currency exposure for both trading andnon-trading activities by establishing limits for the net foreign currency open position, loss limits and VaR limits. Shinhan Bank centrally monitors and manages its foreign exchange positions through its FX & Derivatives Department.Financial Engineering Center. Dealers in the FX & Derivatives DepartmentFinancial Engineering Center manage Shinhan Bank’s consolidated position within preset limits through spot trading, forward contracts, currency options, futures and swaps and foreign currency swaps. Shinhan Bank sets a limit for net open positions by currency. The limits for currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro and Chinese Yuan are set in a conservative manner in order to minimize trading in such currencies.
Shinhan Investment faces foreign currency exchange rate risk in relation to the following product offerings: currency forwards, currency swaps and currency futures. Shinhan Investment centrally monitors and manages transactions involving such products through its Fixed Income, Currency & Commodities Departments. Shinhan Investment’s Risk Management Working Committee, which is delegated with the authority to approve foreign currency-related transactions and limits on the related open positions, manages the related foreign exchange risk by setting nominal limits on the amounts of foreign exchange-related products and monitoring compliance with such limits on a daily basis. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Investment’s net open position related to foreign currency-related products was US$149.541,213 million, and its open positions related to the sale ofWon-U.S. Dollar forwards andWon-U.S. Dollar futures were US$(828.75)1,356 million and US$389.30695 million, respectively.
Shinhan Capital faces considerablemanages its foreign exchange risk resulting from the difference in its foreign currency exchange rate exposure in respect of its leasing business, butassets and liabilities through derivative transactions such as forwards or swaps and maintains its net exposure belowat US$6 million by hedging its foreign exchange positions using forwards and currency swaps.12.4 million.
The net open foreign currency positions held by our other subsidiaries are insignificant.
The following table shows Shinhan Bank’s net foreign currency open positions as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016.2019. Positive amounts represent long exposures and negative amounts represent short exposures.

Equity Risk
Shinhan Bank’s equity risk related to trading activities mainly involves trading equity portfolios of Korean companies and Korea Stock Price Index futures and options. The trading equity portfolio consists of stocks listed on the KRX KOSPI Market or the KRX KOSDAQ Market of the Korea Exchange and nearest-month or second nearest-month futures contracts under strict limits on diversification as well as limits on positions. Shinhan Bank maintains strict scrutiny of these activities in light of the volatility in the Korean stock market and closely
monitors the loss limits and the observance thereof. Although Shinhan Bank holds a substantially smaller amount of equity securities than debt securities in its trading accounts, the VaR of trading account equity risk is generally higher than that of trading account interest rate risk due to high volatility in the value of equity securities. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank heldW60.7219.0 billion,W76.8184.2 billion andW192.9126.3 billion, respectively, of equity securities in its trading accounts (including the trust accounts).
Shinhan Investment’s equity risk related to trading activities also mainly involves the trading of equity portfolio of Korean companies and Korea Stock Price Index futures and options. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, the total amount of equity securities at risk held by Shinhan Investment wasW49.122.8 billion,W30.131.3 billion andW36.727.8 billion, respectively.
Equity positions held by our other subsidiaries are insignificant.

Shinhan Bank generally manages its market risk from the trading activities of its portfolios on an aggregated basis. To control its trading portfolio market risk, Shinhan Bank uses position limits, VaR limits, stop loss limits, Greek limits and stressed loss limits. In addition, it establishes separate limits for investment securities. Shinhan Bank maintains risk control and management guidelines for derivative trading based on the regulations and
guidelines promulgated by the Financial Services Commission, and measures market risk from trading activities to monitor and control the risk of its operating divisions and teams that perform trading activities. Shinhan Bank manages VaR measurements and limits on a daily basis based on automatic interfacing of its trading positions into its market risk measurement system. In addition, Shinhan Bank presets limits on loss, sensitivity, investment and stress for its trading departments and desks and monitors such limits and observance thereof on a daily basis.
Value-at-risk analysis. Shinhan Bank uses ten-day10-day andone-day VaRs to measure its market risk. Shinhan Bank calculates (i) ten-day10-day VaRs on a daily basis based on data for the previous 12 months for the holding periods of ten10 days and(ii) one-day VaRs on a daily basis based on data for the previous 12 months for the holding periods of one day. A ten-day10-day VaR andone-day VaR are statistically estimated maximum amounts of loss that can occur for ten10 days and one day, respectively, under normal market conditions. If a VaR is measured using a 99% confidence level, the actual amount of loss may exceed the expected VaR, on average, once out of every 100 business days, while if a VaR is measured using a 99.9% confidence level, the actual amount of loss may exceed the expected VaR, on average, once out of 1,000 business days.
Shinhan Bank currently uses the ten-day10-day 99% confidence level-based VaR and stressed VaR for purposes of calculating the regulatory capital used in reporting to the Financial Supervisory Service. Stressed VaR reflects the potential significant loss in the current trading portfolio based on scenarios derived from a crisis simulation during the preceding 12 months. Shinhan Bank also uses the more conservative ten-day10-day 99.9% confidence level-based VaR for purposes of calculating its “economic” capital used for internal management purposes, which is a concept used in determining the amount of Shinhan Bank’s requisite capital in light of the market risk. In addition, Shinhan Bank uses theone-day 99% confidence level-based VaR on a supplemental basis for purposes of setting and managing risk limits specific to each desk or team in its operating units as well as for back-testing purposes. For Shinhan Bank, the amount of losses (either actual or virtual) exceeded theone-day 99% confidence level-based VaR amount once in 2014, fourthree times in 20152017, zero times in 2018 and oncefive times in 2016.2019. The most recentincreased frequency of instances in which the amount of losses exceeded the one-day 99% confidence level-based VaR amount by 1% on September 22, 2016.in 2019 was primarily because the foreign currency exchange market experienced unusually high volatility. The VaR exceptions referred to above were all due to the amount of virtual losses exceeding the VaR amount. Virtual losses represent the potential changes in the value of a portfolio when simulating the same portfolio with market variables of the next trading day.
Shinhan Investment currently uses the same ten-day10-day 99.9% confidence level-based historical VaR for purposes of calculating its “economic” capital used for internal management purposes, although such model is not subject to regulatory review or reporting requirements. In addition, Shinhan Investment applies this VaR as a risk limit for the entire company as well as individual departments and products, and the adequacy of such VaR is reviewed by way of daily back-testing. When computing VaR,Shinhan Investment does not assume any particular probability distribution and calculates it through a simulation of the “full valuation” method basedmethodbased on changes of market variables such as stock prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates in the past one year. For Shinhan Investment, the amount of losses (either actual or virtual) did not exceedexceeded theone-day 99% confidence level-based VaR amount in 2013, but exceeded such amount threetwo times in 2014, six times in 20152017, and once in 2016. The most recent losses exceeded the one-day 99% confidence level-based VaR amount by 37% on November 10, 2016. The increased frequency ofthere were no such instances in which the amount of losses exceeded the VaR amount in 2015 was primarily because the stock market experienced unusually high volatility when such instances occurred.2018 and 2019. The VaR exceptions referred to above were all due to the amount of virtual losses exceeding the VaR amount.
Value-at-risk is a commonly used market risk management technique. However, VaR models have the following shortcomings:
VaR estimates possible losses over a certain period at a particular confidence level using past market movement data. Past market movement, however, is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future events, particularly those that are extreme in nature;
VaR may underestimate the probability of extreme market movements;
Shinhan Bank’s VaR models assume that a holding period of generally one to ten10 days is sufficient prior to liquidating the underlying positions, but such assumption regarding the length of the holding period may actually prove to be inadequate;
The 99.9% confidence level does not take into account or provide indication of any losses that might occur beyond this confidence level; and
VaR does not capture all complex effects of various risk factors on the value of positions and portfolios and could underestimate potential losses.
Currently, Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Investment conduct back-testing of VaR results against actual outcomes on a daily basis.
Shinhan Bank operates an integrated market risk management system which manages Shinhan Bank’sWon-denominated and foreign-denominated accounts. This system uses historical simulation to measure both linear risks arising from products such as equity and debt securities and nonlinear risks arising from other products including options. We believe that this system enables Shinhan Bank to generate elaborate and consistent VaR information and to perform sensitivity analysis and back testing in order to check the validity of the models on a daily basis. Shinhan Life Insurance also measures market risks based on a VaR analysis.
Stress test. In addition to VaR, Shinhan Bank performs stress tests to measure market risk. As VaR assumes normal market situations, Shinhan Bank assesses its market risk exposure to unlikely abnormal market fluctuations through the stress test. Stress test is a valuable supplement to VaR since VaR does not cover potential loss if the market moves in a manner which is outside Shinhan Bank’s normal expectations. Stress test projects the anticipated change in value of holding positions under certain scenarios assuming that no action is taken during a stress event to change the risk profile of a portfolio.
Shinhan Bank uses seven relatively simple but fundamental scenarios for stress test by taking into account four market risk components: foreign currency exchange rates, stock prices, andWon-denominated interest rates and foreign currency-denominated interest rates. For the worst case scenario, Shinhan Bank assumes instantaneous and simultaneous movements in four market risk components: appreciation of Won by 20%, a decrease in Korea Exchange Composite Index by 30% and increases inWon-denominated and U.S. Dollar-denominated interest rates by 200 basis points each, respectively. Under this worst-case scenario, the market value of Shinhan Bank’s trading portfolio would have declined byW361456 billion as of December 31, 2016.2019. Shinhan Bank performs stress test on a daily basis and reports the results to its Risk Policy Committee on a monthly basis and its Risk Management Committee on a quarterly basis.
Shinhan Investment uses nine scenarios for stress tests by taking into account four market risk components: stock prices (both in terms of stock market indices and ß-based individual stock prices), interest rates forWon-denominated loans, foreign currency exchange rates and impliedhistorical volatility. As of December 31, 2016,2019, under the worst case scenario assuming a 1% point increase in the three-year government bond yield, the market value of Shinhan Investment’s trading portfolio would have fluctuated byW70.074.2 billion for one day.
Shinhan Bank sets limits on stress testing for its overall operations. Shinhan Investment sets limits on stress testing for its overall operations as well as at its department level. Although Shinhan Life Insurance does not set
any limits on stress testing, it monitors the impact of market turmoil or other abnormalities. In the case of Shinhan Bank, Shinhan Investment and Shinhan Life Insurance, if the potential impact is large, their respective Chiefhead of Risk OfficerManagement will notify such impact and may request a portfolio restructuring or other proper action.
Hedging and Derivative Market Risk
The principal objective of our group-wide hedging strategy is to manage market risk within established limits. We use derivative instruments to hedge our market risk as well as to make profits by trading derivative products within preset risk limits. Our derivative trading includes interest rate and cross-currency swaps, foreign currency forwards and futures, stock index and interest rate futures, and stock index and currency options.
While we use derivatives for hedging purposes, derivative transactions by nature involve market risk since we take trading positions for the purpose of making profits. These activities consist primarily of the following:
arbitrage transactions to make profits from short-term discrepancies between the spot and derivative markets or within the derivative markets;
sales of tailor-made derivative products that meet various needs of our corporate customers, principally of Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Investment, and related transactions to reduce their exposure resulting from those sales;
taking positions in limited cases when we expect short-swing profits based on our market forecasts; and
trading to hedge our interest rate and foreign currency risk exposure as described above.
In relation to our adoption ofaccordance with accounting requirements under IFRS 9, “Financial instruments”, which has replaced IAS 39, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement,” since January 1, 2018, we have implemented internal processes which include a number of key controls designed to ensure that fair value is measured appropriately, particularly where a fair value model is internally developed and used to price a significant product.
Shinhan Bank assesses the adequacy of the fair market value of a new product derived from its internal model prior to the launch of such product. The assessment process involves the following:
computation of an internal dealing system market value (based on assessment by the quantitative analysis team of the adequacy of the formula and the model used to compute the market value as derived from the dealing system);
computation of the market value as obtained from an outside credit evaluation company; and
following comparison of the market value derived from an internal dealing system to that obtained from outside credit evaluation companies, determination as to whether to use the internally developed market value based on inter-departmental consensus.
The dealing system market value, which is used officially by Shinhan Bank after undergoing the assessment process above, does not undergo a sampling process that confirms the value based on review of individual transactions, but is subject to an additional assessment procedure of comparing such value against the profits derived from the dealing systems based on the deal portfolio sensitivity.
Shinhan Investment follows an internal policy as set by its Fair Value Evaluation Committee for computing and assessing the adequacy of fair value of all of itsover-the-counter derivative products. Shinhan Investment computes the fair value based on an internal model and internal risk management systems and assesses the adequacy of the fair value through cross-departmental checks as well as comparison against fair values obtained from outside credit evaluation companies.
See “Item 5.A. Operating Results — Critical Accounting Policies” and Note 3 of3of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.
Market risk from derivatives is not significant since derivative trading activities of Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Investment are primarily driven by arbitrage and customer deals with highly limited open trading positions. Market risk from derivatives is also not significant for Shinhan Life Insurance as its derivative trading activities are limited to those within preset risk limits and are subject to heavy regulations imposed on the insurance industry. Market risk from derivatives is not significant for our other subsidiaries since the amount of such positions by our other subsidiaries is insignificant.
Market Risk Management forNon-trading Activities
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk represents Shinhan Bank’s principal market risk fromnon-trading activities. Interest rate risk is the risk of loss resulting from interest rate fluctuations that adversely affect the financial condition and results of operations of Shinhan Bank. Shinhan Bank’s interest rate risk primarily relates to the differences between the timing of rate changes for interest-earning assets and that for interest-bearing liabilities.
Interest rate risk affects Shinhan Bank’s earnings and the economic value of Shinhan Bank’s net assets as follows:
| • | Earnings: interest rate fluctuations have an effect on Shinhan Bank’s net interest income by affecting its interest-sensitive operating income and expenses. |
| • | Economic value of net assets: interest rate fluctuations influence Shinhan Bank’s net worth by affecting the present value of cash flows from the assets, liabilities and other transactions of Shinhan Bank. |
Accordingly, Shinhan Bank measures and manages interest rate risk fornon-trading activities by taking into account the effects of interest rate changes on both its income and net asset value. Shinhan Bank measures and manages interest rate risk on a daily and monthly basis with respect to all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in Shinhan Bank’s bank accounts (including derivatives denominated in Won which are principally interest rate swaps entered into for the purpose of hedging) and in trust accounts, except that Shinhan Bank measures VaRs on a monthly basis. Most of Shinhan Bank’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are denominated in Won.
Interest Rate Risk Management
The principal objectives of Shinhan Bank’s interest rate risk management are to generate stable net interest income and to protect Shinhan Bank’s net asset value against interest rate fluctuations. Through its asset and liability management system, Shinhan Bank monitors and manages its interest rate risk based on various analytical measures such as interest rate gap, duration gap and net present value and net interest income simulations, and monitors on a monthly basis its interest rate VaR limits, interest rate earnings at risk (“EaR”) limits and interest rate gap ratio limits. Shinhan Bank measures its interest rate VaR and interest rate EaR based on simulated estimationinterest rate risk in the banking book standardized approach presented by the Bank for International Settlements (the “IRRBB standardized approach”). IRRBB, which is part of the maximum decreaseBasel capital framework’s Pillar 2 and subject to the Committee’s guidance set out in net asset valuethe 2004 revised principles for the management and netsupervision of interest incomerate risk, refers to current or prospective risk to a bank’s capital and earnings arising from adverse movements in a one-year periodinterest rates that affect the bank’s banking book position. Interest rate risk is managed by reflecting possible future interest rate environments and customer behavior based on various scenario analysesthe IRRBB standardized approach. Interest rate VaR is measured by the change in economic value of historicalequity under six types of scenarios (parallel up, parallel down, stiffener, flattener, short-term interest rates.rate-up and short-term interest rate-down). Interest rate EaR is measured by the largest loss amount based on two types of scenarios (parallel up and parallel down). The Risk Policy Committee sets the interest rate risk limits for Shinhan Bank’sWon-denominated and foreign currency-denominatednon-trading accounts and trust accounts, and the Risk Management Committee sets Shinhan Bank’s overall interest rate risk limit, in both cases, at least annually. The Risk Management Department monitors Shinhan Bank’s compliance with these limits and reports the monitoring results to the Risk Policy Committee on a monthly basis and the Risk Management Committee on a quarterly basis. Shinhan Bank uses interest rate swaps to control its interest rate exposure limits.
Interest rate VaR represents the maximum anticipated loss in a net present value calculation (computed as the present value of interest-earning assets minus the present value of interest-bearing liabilities), whereas interest rate EaR represents the maximum anticipated loss in a net earnings calculation (computed as interest
income minus interest expenses) for the immediately followingone-year period, in each case, as a result of
negative movements in interest rates. Therefore, interest rate VaR is a more expansive concept than interest rate EaR in that the former covers all interest-earning assets and all interest-bearing liabilities, whereas the latter covers only those interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that are exposed to interest rate volatility for aone-year period.
Hence, for interest rate VaRs, the duration gap (namely, the weighted average duration of all interest-earning assets minus the weighted average duration of all interest-bearing liabilities) can be a more critical factor than the relative sizes of the relevant assets and liabilities in influencing interest rate VaRs. In comparison, for interest rate EaRs, the relative sizes of the relevant assets and liabilities in the form of the “one year or less interest rate” gap (namely, the volume of interest-earning assets with maturities of less than one year minus the volume of interest-bearing liabilities with maturities of less than one year) isare the most critical factor in influencing the interest rate EaRs.
The interest rate VaR limits are set as the sum of (i) the average of the monthly non-trading interest rate VaRs as a percentage of interest-bearing assets over a period of one year and (ii) the standard deviation at the 99% confidence level (namely, 2.33 times the standard deviation of the monthly non-trading interest rate VaRs as a percentage of interest-bearing assets).
The interest rate EaR limits are set at the maximum decrease in net interest income by (i) assuming that the estimated interest rate gap will expand to the maximum level of manageable (tolerable) situations and (ii) applying the interest rate shock scenario to the annual volatility of interest rates using past 10-year market interest rates.
On a monthly basis, we monitor whether thenon-trading positions for interest rate VaR and EaR exceed their respective limits as described above.
Interest rate VaR cannot be meaningfully compared to the ten-day10-day 99% confidence level based VaR (“market risk VaR”) for managing trading risk principally because (i) the underlying assets are different (namely,non-trading interest-bearing assets as well as liabilities in the case of the interest rate VaR, compared to trading assets only in the case of the market risk VaR), and (ii) interest rate VaR is sensitive to interest rate movements only while the market risk VaR is sensitive to interest rate movements as well as other factors such as foreign currency exchange rates, stock market prices and option volatility.
Even if comparison were to be made between the interest rate VaR and the interest rate portion only of the market risk VaR, we do not believe such comparison would be meaningful since the interest rate VaR examines the impact of interest rate movements on both assets and liabilities (which will likely have offsetting effects), whereas the interest rate portion of the market VaR examines the impact of interest rate movements on assets only.
Shinhan Bank uses various analytical methodologies to measure and manage its interest rate risk fornon-trading activities on a daily and monthly basis, including the following analyses:
Interest rate gap analysis;
Duration gap analysis;
Market value analysis; and
Net interest income simulation analysis.
Interest Rate Gap Analysis
Shinhan Bank performs an interest gap analysis to measure the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets and that of interest-bearing liabilities at each maturity andre-pricing date for specific time
intervals by preparing interest rate gap tables in which Shinhan Bank’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are allocated to the applicable time intervals based on the expected cash flows andre-pricing dates.
On a daily basis, Shinhan Bank performs interest rate gap analysis forWon- and foreigncurrency-denominated assets and liabilities in its bank and trust accounts. Shinhan Bank’s gap analysis includesWon-denominated derivatives (which are interest rate swaps for the purpose of hedging) and foreigncurrency-denominated derivatives (which are currency swaps for the purpose of hedging), which are managed centrally at the FX & Derivatives Department.Financial Engineering Center. Through the interest rate gap analysis that measures interest rate sensitivity gaps, cumulative gaps and gap ratios, Shinhan Bank assesses its exposure to future interest risk fluctuations. For
interest rate gap analysis, Shinhan Bank assumes and uses the following maturities for different types of assets and liabilities:
With respect to the maturities andre-pricing dates of Shinhan Bank’s assets, Shinhan Bank assumes that the maturity of Shinhan Bank’s prime rate-linked loans is the same as that of its fixed-rate loans. Shinhan Bank excludes equity securities from interest-earning assets.
With respect to the maturities andre-pricing of Shinhan Bank’s liabilities, Shinhan Bank assumes that money market deposit accounts and “non-core”“non-core” demand deposits under the Financial Services Commission guidelines have a maturity of one month or less for bothWon-denominated accounts and foreign currency-denominated accounts.
With respect to “core” demand deposits under the Financial Services Commission guidelines, Shinhan Bank assumes that they have maturities of eight different intervals ranging from one month to five years.
The following tables show Shinhan Bank’s interest rate gaps as of December 31, 20162019 for(i) Won-denominatedWon-denominatednon-trading non-trading bank accounts, including derivatives entered into for the purpose of hedging and (ii) foreign currency-denominatednon-trading bank accounts, including derivatives entered into for the purpose of hedging.

Duration Gap Analysis
Shinhan Bank performs a duration gap analysis to measure the differential effects of interest rate risk on the market value of its assets and liabilities by examining the difference between the durations of Shinhan Bank’s interest-earning assets and those of its interest-bearing liabilities, which durations represent their respective weighted average maturities calculated based on their respective discounted cash flows using applicable yield curves. These measurements are done on a daily basis and for each operating department, account, product and currency, the respective durations of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
The following tables show duration gaps and market values of Shinhan Bank’sWon-denominated interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in itsnon-trading accounts as of December 31, 20162019 and changes in these market values when interest rate increases by one percentage point.

Net Interest Income Simulation
Shinhan Bank performs net interest income simulation to measure the effects of the change in interest rate on its results of operations. Such simulation uses the deterministic analysis methodology to measure the estimated changes in Shinhan Bank’s annual net interest income (interest income less interest expenses) under the current maturity structure, using different scenarios for interest rates (assuming parallel shifts) and funding requirements. For simulations involving interest rate changes, based on the assumption that there is no change in funding requirements, Shinhan Bank applies three scenarios of parallel shifts in interest rate: (1) no change, (2) a 1% point increase in interest rates and (3) a 1% point decrease in interest rates.
The following table illustrates by way of an example the simulated changes in Shinhan Bank’s annual net interest income for 20162019 with respect toWon-denominated interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, using Shinhan Bank’s net interest income simulation model, assuming (a) the maturity structure and funding requirement of Shinhan Bank as of December 31, 20162019 and (b) the same interest rates as of December 31, 20162019 and a 1% point increase or decrease in the interest rates.

Shinhan Bank’sWon-denominated interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities innon-trading accounts have a maturity structure that benefits from an increase in interest rates, because there-pricing periods for interest-earning assets in Shinhan Bank’snon-trading accounts are, on average, shorter than those of the interest-bearing liabilities in these accounts. This is primarily due to a sustained low interest rate environment in the recent years in Korea, which resulted in a significant increase in demand for floating rate loans (which tend to have shorter maturities orre-pricing periods than fixed rate loans) as a portion of Shinhan Bank’s overall loans, which in turn led to the shortening, on average, of the maturities orre-pricing periods of Shinhan Bank’s loans on an aggregate basis. As a result, Shinhan Bank’s net interest income tends to decrease during times of a decrease in the market interest rates while the opposite is generally true during times of an increase in the market interest rates.
Interest Rate VaRs forNon-trading Assets and Liabilities
Shinhan Bank measures VaRs for interest rate risk fromnon-trading activities on a monthly basis. The following table shows, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016,2019, the VaRs of interest rate mismatch risk for other assets and liabilities, which arises from mismatches between there-pricing dates for Shinhan Bank’snon-trading interest-earning assets (includingavailable-for-sale investment securities) and those for its interest-bearing liabilities. Under the regulations of the Financial Services Commission, Shinhan Bank includes in calculation of these VaRs interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in its bank accounts and its merchant banking accounts.

Interest Rate Risk for Other Subsidiaries
Shinhan Card monitors and manages its interest rate risk for all its interest-bearing assets and liabilities (includingoff-balance sheet items) in terms of the impact on its earnings and net asset value from changes in interest rates. Shinhan Card primarily uses interest rate VaR and EaR analyses to measure its interest rate risk.
The interest rate VaR analysis used by Shinhan Card principally focuses on the maximum impact on its net asset value from adverse movements in interest rates and consists of (i) historical interest rate VaR analysis and (ii) interest rate gap analysis. The historical interest rate VaR analysis is made through simulation of net asset value based on the interest rate volatility over a fixed past period to produce expected future interest rate scenarios and computes the maximum value at risk at a 99.9% confidence level by analyzing the net present value distribution under each such scenario. As for interest rate gap analysis, Shinhan Card computes the value at risk based on the duration proxies and interest rate shocks for each time interval as recommended under the Basel Accord.
The interest rate EaR analysis used by Shinhan Card computes the maximum loss in net interest income for aone-year period following adverse movements in interest rates, based on an interest rate gap analysis using the time intervals and the “middle of time band” as recommended under the Basel Accord.
Shinhan Investment uses historical interest rate VaR analysis based on its internal model to monitor and manage its interest rate risk. The historical interest rate VaR analysis is made through simulation of net asset value based on the interest rate volatility over the past three years to compute the maximum value at risk at a 99.9% confidence level. Shinhan Investment also measures its level of IRRBB exposure.
Shinhan Life Insurance monitors and manages its interest rate risk for its investment assets and liabilities based on simulations of its asset-liability management system. These simulations typically involve subjecting Shinhan Life Insurance’s current and future assets and liabilities to more than 2,000 market scenarios based on varying assumptions, such as new debt purchases and current investment portfolios, so as to derive its net asset value forecast for the next one year at a 99.9% confidence level.
Orange Life Insurance monitors and manages its interest rate risk based on net asset value and net interest income using a stochastic cash flow model. In addition, Orange Life Insurance also has a strategic asset allocation system reflecting the interest rates of insurance liabilities and maturities of its assets and liabilities, upon which its asset management guidelines are based.
Interest rate risk for our other subsidiaries is insignificant.
Equity Risk
Substantially all of Shinhan Bank’s equity risk relates to its portfolio of common stock in Korean companies. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank held an aggregate amount ofW60.7230.5 billion of equity interest in unlisted foreign companies (includingW50.5221.0 billion invested in unlisted private equity funds).
The equity securities in Won held in Shinhan Bank’s investment portfolio consist of stocks listed on the KRX KOSPI Market or the KRX KOSDAQ Market of the Korea Exchange and certainnon-listed stocks.
Shinhan Bank sets exposure limits for most of these equity securities to manage their related risk. As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank held equity securities in an aggregate amount ofW1,417.5723.4 billion in itsnon-trading accounts, including equity securities in the amount ofW238.4187.9 billion that it held, among other reasons, for management control purposes and as a result ofdebt-to-equity conversion as a part of reorganization proceedings of the companies to which it had extended loans.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank heldWon-denominated convertible bonds in an aggregate amount ofW60.8182.5 billion and did not hold anyWon-denominated exchangeable bonds in an aggregate amount ofW1.2 billion and orWon-denominated bonds with
warrants, in an aggregate amount ofW1.0 billion, in each case, in itsnon-trading accounts. Shinhan Bank does not measure equity risk with respect to convertible bonds, exchangeable bonds or bonds with warrants, and the interest rate risk of these equity-linked securities are measured together with the other debt securities. As such, Shinhan Bank measures interest rate risk VaRs but not equity risk VaRs for these equity-linked securities.
Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity risk is the risk of insolvency, default or loss due to disparity between inflow and outflow of funds, including the risk of having to obtain funds at a high price or to dispose of securities at an unfavorable price due to lack of available funds. Each of our subsidiaries seeks to minimize liquidity risk through early detection of risk factors related to the sourcing and managing of funds that may cause volatility in liquidity and by ensuring that it maintains an appropriate level of liquidity through systematic management. At the group-wide level, we manage our liquidity risk by conducting monthly stress tests that compare liquidity requirements under normal situations against those under three types of stress situations, namely, our group-specific internal crisis, crisis in the external market and a combination of internal and external crisis. In addition, in order to preemptively and comprehensively manage liquidity risk, we measure and monitor liquidity risk management using various indices, including the “limit management index,” “early warning index” and “monitoring index.”
Shinhan Bank applies the following basic principles for liquidity risk management:
raise funds in sufficient amounts, at the optimal time at reasonable costs;
maintain liquidity risk at appropriate levels and preemptively manage them through a prescribed risk limit system and an early warning signal detection system;
secure stable sources of revenue and minimize actual losses by implementing an effective asset-liability management system based on diversified sources of funding with varying maturities;
monitor and manage daily and intra-daily liquidity positions and risk exposures for timely payment and settlement of financial obligations due under both normal and crisis situations;
conduct periodic contingency analysisliquidity stress test in anticipation of any potential liquidity crisis and establish and implement emergencycontingency funding plans in case of an actual crisis; and
consider liquidity-related costs, benefits of and risks in determining the pricing of our products and services, employee performance evaluations and approval of launching of new products and services.
Each of our subsidiaries manages liquidity risk in accordance with the risk limits and guidelines established internally and by the relevant regulatory authorities. Pursuant to principal regulations applicable to financial holding companies and banks as promulgated by the Financial Services Commission, we, at the holding company level, are required to maintain a specific liquidity coverage ratio and a foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio. These ratios require us to maintain the relevant ratios above certain minimum levels.
Shinhan Bank manages its liquidity risk within the limits set on Won and foreign currency accounts in accordance with the regulations of the Financial Services Commission. The Financial Services Commission requiresimplemented a minimum liquidity coverage ratio requirement for Korean banks, including Shinhan Bank, to maintain a liquidity coverage ratio of at least 80.0% as of January 1, 2015, 85.0% as of January 1, 2016, 90.0% as of January 1, 2017, 95.0% as of January 1, 2018 and
100.0% as ofstarting January 1, 2019. The Financial Services Commission defines liquidity coverage ratio as high quality liquid assets that can be easilyimmediately converted tointo cash with little or no loss in value, as divided by the net amount of cash outflow for the next 30 day period, under the stress level established according to the liquidity coverage ratio, pursuant to the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business, which was amended as of June 28, 2016 to implement the liquidity coverage ratio requirements under Basel III. In addition to the liquidity coverage ratio, the Financial Supervisory Commission introduced the net stable funding ratio into the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business that came in effect in January 2018. Whereas liquidity coverage ratio is aimed at measuring liquidity for the next30-day period, net stable funding ratio, calculated as the ratio of available stable funding to
required stable funding, is aimed at measuring liquidity for the nextone-year period. A bank’s available stable funding is the portion of its capital and liabilities that are safely expected to remain with the bank for more than one year. A bank’s required stable funding is the amount of stable funding that it is required to hold given the liquidity characteristics and residual maturities of its assets and the contingent liquidity risk arising from itsoff-balance sheet exposures. Shinhan Bank is required by the Financial Services Commission to maintain a net stable funding ratio of at least 100%.
With respect to foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio, the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business requires that financial institutions dealing with foreign exchange affairs (i.e., banks) whose foreign-currency denominated liabilities are equal to or greater than US$500 million or 5% of its total liabilities, as of the end of the immediately preceding half-year period, maintain a foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio of 60% or higher beginning January 1, 2017, 70% or higher beginning January 1, 2018 and 80% or higher beginning January 1, 2019. The term “foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio” means the ratio of high-liquidity assets to the net cash outflow in respect of foreign-currency denominated assets and liabilities for the next 30 days. In the case of financial institutions dealing with foreign exchange affairs whose foreign-currency denominated liabilities are less than US$500 million and less than 5% of its total liabilities, as of the end of the immediately preceding half-year period, the following ratios shall be maintained and foreign-currency denominated assets and liabilities shall be categorized and managed according to such different remaining maturities: (i) the ratio of assets for which remaining maturities are less than three months to liabilities for which remaining maturities are less than three months shall be at least 85%, and (ii) the assets for which remaining maturities are less than one month shall not exceeded liabilities for which the remaining maturities are less than one month by more than 10%.
Shinhan Bank’s Treasury Department is in charge of liquidity risk management with respect to Shinhan Bank’s Won and foreign currency funds. The Treasury Department submits Shinhan Bank’s monthly funding and asset management plans to Shinhan Bank’s Asset and Liability Committee for approval, based on the analysis of various factors, including macroeconomic indices, interest rate and foreign exchange movements and maturity structures of Shinhan Bank’s assets and liabilities. Shinhan Bank’s Risk ManagementEngineering Department measures Shinhan Bank’s liquidity ratio and liquidity gapcoverage ratio on a daily basis and net stable funding ratio on a monthly basis and reports whether they are in compliance with the respective limits to Shinhan Bank’s Risk Policy Committee, which sets and monitors Shinhan Bank’s liquidity coverage ratio and liquidity gapnet stable funding ratio on a monthly basis.

Shinhan Bank maintains diverse sources of liquidity to facilitate flexibility in meeting its funding requirements. Shinhan Bank funds its operations principally by accepting deposits from retail and corporate depositors, accessing the call loan market (a short-term market for loans with maturities of less than one month), issuing debentures and borrowing from the Bank of Korea. Shinhan Bank uses the funds primarily to extend loans or purchase securities. Generally, deposits are of shorter average maturity than loans or investments.
Shinhan Card manages its liquidity risk according to the following principles: (i) provide a sufficient volume of necessary funding in a timely manner at a reasonable cost, (ii) establish an overall liquidity risk management strategy, including in respect of liquidity management targets, policy and internal control systems, and (iii) manage its liquidity risk in conjunction with other risks based on a comprehensive understanding of the interaction among the various risks. As for any potential liquidity shortage at or near the end of each month, Shinhan Card maintains liquidity at a level sufficient to withstand credit shortage for three months.
In addition, Shinhan Card manages liquidity risk by setting and complying with specific guidelines for various measures of liquidity, including the breakdown of contractual payment obligations by maturity, overseas funding, the ratio of asset-backed securitized borrowings to the total borrowing, the ratio of requisite liquidity to reserve liquidity, and the ratio of fixed interest rate borrowings to floating interest rate borrowings. Furthermore, Shinhan Card closely monitors various indicators of a potential liquidity crisis, such as the actual liquidity gap ratio (in relation to the different maturities for assets as compared to liabilities), the liquidity buffer ratio. Shinhan Card also has contingency plans in place in case of any emergency or crisis. In managing its liquidity risk, Shinhan Card focuses on a prompt response system based on periodic monitoring of the relevant early signals, stress testing and contingency plan formulations. Shinhan Card identifies its funding needs on a daily, monthly, quarterly and annual basis based on the maturity schedule of its liabilities as well as short-term liquidity needs, based upon which it formulates its funding plans using diverse sources such as corporate debentures, commercial papers, asset-backed securitizations and credit line facilities. When entering into asset-backed securitizations, Shinhan Card provides sufficient credit enhancements to avoid triggering early amortization events. In addition, prior to entering into any funding transaction and related derivative transaction, Shinhan Card conductspre-transaction risk analyses, including in respect of counterparty credit risk and its total exposure limit by country and by financial institution.
Shinhan Card also manages its liquidity risk within the limits set on Won accounts in accordance with the regulations of the Financial Services Commission. Under the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act and the regulations thereunder, credit card companies in Korea are required to maintain a Won liquidity ratio of at least 100.0%.
The following tables show Shinhan Card’s liquidity status and limits forWon-denominated accounts as of December 31, 20162019 in accordance with the regulations of the Financial Services Commission.

Shinhan Investment manages its liquidity risk for itsWon-denominated accounts by setting a limit ofW300 billion on each of itsseven-day andone-month liquidity gap, a limit of 110% on itsone-month and three-months liquidity ratioratios and a limit ofW69 billion on its liquidity VaR. As for its foreign currency-denominated accounts, Shinhan Investment manages the liquidity risk on a quarterly basis in compliance with the guidelines of the Financial Supervisory Service, which requires theone-week andone-month maturity mismatch ratios to be 0% and-10% or less, respectively, and the three months liquidity ratio to be 80%85% or higher.
Our other subsidiaries fund their operations primarily through call money, bank loans, commercial paper, corporate debentures and asset-backed securities. Our holding company acts as a funding vehicle for long-term financing of our subsidiaries whose credit ratings are lower than the holding company, including Shinhan Card and Shinhan Capital, to lower the overall funding costs within regulatory limitations. Under the Monopoly RegulationRegulations and Fair Trade Act, of Korea, however, a financial holding company is prohibited from borrowing funds in excess of 200% of its total stockholders’ equity.
In addition to liquidity risk management under the normal market situations, we have contingency plans to effectively cope with possible liquidity crisis. Liquidity crisis arises when we would not be able to effectively manage the situations with our normal liquidity management measures due to, among other reasons, inability to access our normal sources of funds or epidemic withdrawals of deposits as a result of various external or internal factors, including a collapse in the financial markets or abrupt deterioration of our credit. We have contingency plans corresponding to different stages of liquidity crisis: namely, “alert stage,” “imminent-crisis stage” and “crisis stage,” based on the following liquidity indices:
indices that reflect the market movements such as interest rates and stock prices;
indices that reflect financial market sentiments, an example being the size of money market funds; and
indices that reflect our internal liquidity condition.
Operational Risk Management
Operational risk is difficult to quantify and subject to different definitions. The Basel Committee defines operational risk as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from other external events. Similarly, we define operational risk as the risks related to our overall management other than credit risk, market risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These include risks arising from system failure, human error,non-adherence to policy and procedures, fraud, inadequate internal controls and procedures or environmental changes and resulting in financial andnon-financial loss. We monitor and assess operational risks related to our business operations, including administrative risk, information technology risk (including cyber security risk), managerial risk and legal risk, with a view to minimizing such losses.
Our holding company’s Audit Committee, which consists of three outside directors, one of whom is an accounting or financial expert as required by internal control regulations under the Act on Corporate Governance
of Financial Holding Company Act,Companies, oversees and monitors our operational compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee also oversees management’s operations and may, at any time it deems appropriate, demand additional operations-related reporting from management and inspects our asset condition. At the holding company level, we define each subsidiary’s operational process and establish an internal review system applicable to each subsidiary. Each subsidiary’s operational risk is internally monitored and managed at the subsidiary level and the Group Internal Audit Department at our holding company, which reports to our Audit Committee, continuously monitors the integrity of our subsidiaries’ operational risk management system. Our holding company’s board of directors and the Group Risk Management Committee establish our basic policies for operational risk management at the group level. The Group Internal Audit Department at our holding company is directly responsible for overseeing our operational risk management with a focus on legal, regulatory, operational and reputational risks. The Group Internal Audit Department audits both our and our subsidiaries’ operations and asset condition in accordance to our annual audit plan, which is approved by the Audit Committee, and submits regular reports to the Audit Committee pursuant to our internal reporting system. If the Group Internal Audit Department discovers anynon-compliance with operational risk procedures or areas of weaknesses, it promptly alerts the business department in respect of which suchnon-compliance was discovered and demands implementation of corrective measures. Implementation of such corrective measures is subsequently reviewed by the Group Internal Audit Department.
To monitor and manage operational risks,risk, Shinhan Bank maintains a system of comprehensive policies and has in place a control framework designed to provide a stable and well-managed operational environment throughout the organization. Currently, the primary responsibility for ensuring compliance with our banking operational risk procedures remains with each of the business units and operational teams. In addition, the Audit Department, the Risk Management Department and the Compliance Department of Shinhan Bank also play important roles in reviewing and maintaining the integrity of Shinhan Bank’s internal control environment.
The operational risk management system of Shinhan Bank is managed by the operational risk team under the Risk Management Department. The current system principally consists of risk control self-assessment, risk quantification using key risk indicators, loss data collection, scenario managementanalysis and operational risk capital measurement. Shinhan Bank operates several educational and awareness programs designed to have all of its employees to be familiar with this system. In addition, Shinhan Bank has a designated operational risk manager at each of its departments and branch offices, who serves as a coordinator between the operational risk team at the headquarters and the employees in the front office and seeking to provide centralized feedback to further improve the operational risk management system.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank has conducted risk control self-assessments on its departments as well as domestic and overseas branch offices, from which it collects systematized data on all of its branch offices, and uses the findings from such self-assessments to improve the procedures and processes for the relevant departments or branch offices. In addition, Shinhan Bank has accumulated risk-related data since 2003, improved the procedures for monitoring operational losses and is developing risk simulation models. In addition, Shinhan Bank selects and monitors, at the department level, approximately 209186 key risk indicators.
The Audit Committee of Shinhan Bank, which consists of one standing auditordirector and two outside directors, is an independent inspection authority that supervises Shinhan Bank’s internal controls and compliance with established ethical and legal principles. The Audit Committee performs internal audits of, among other matters, Shinhan Bank’s overall management and accounting, and supervises its Audit Department, which assists Shinhan Bank’s Audit Committee. Shinhan Bank’s Audit Committee also reviews and evaluates Shinhan Bank’s accounting policies and their changes, financial and accounting matters and fairness of financial reporting.

As for Shinhan Investment, its audit department conducts an annual inspection as to whether the internal policy and procedures of Shinhan Investment relating to its overall operational risk management are being effectively complied. The inspection has a particular focus on the appropriateness of the scope of operational risks and the collection, maintenance and processing of relevant operating data. Shinhan Investment, through its operational risk management system, also conducts self-assessments of risks, collects loss data and manages key risk indicators. The operational risk management system is supervised by its audit department, compliance department and risk management department, as well as a risk management officer in each of Shinhan Investment’s departments.
Shinhan Card’s audit committee reviews whether the internal policy and procedures of Shinhan Card are effective and implements measures to improve such policies as needed. Shinhan Card’s audit committee also contributes to work efficiency, financial risk minimization and management rationalization. Shinhan Card is expected to develop an operational risk management system once the Financial Supervisory Service announces its oversight guidelines regarding operational risk measurement.

Orange Life Insurance also has firm-wide control systems to maintain business continuity and for financial reporting, which are performed by our examiners, and self-audits are performed byoperated in coordination with the self-auditors of the relevant operational departments.risk management system.
In addition to internal audits and inspections, the Financial Supervisory Service conducts general annual audits of our and our subsidiaries’ operations. The Financial Supervisory Service also performs special audits as the need arises on particular aspects of our and our subsidiaries’ operations such as risk management, credit monitoring and liquidity. In the ordinary course of these audits, the Financial Supervisory Service routinely issues warning notices where it determines that a regulated financial institution or such institution’s employees
have failed to comply with the applicable laws or rules, regulations and guidelines of the Financial Supervisory Service. We and our subsidiaries have in the past received, and expect in the future to receive, such notices and we have taken and will continue to take appropriate actions in response to such notices. For example, in October 2018, the Financial Supervisory Service conducted a comprehensive audit ofrequested Shinhan Bank fromto submit supporting documents in connection with allegations of inadequate compliance controls. In November to December 2012, and in July 20132018, the Financial Supervisory Service notified Shinhan Bank of an institutional caution (which does not give rise to significant
sanctions unlikefor alleged deficiencies in the case of repeated institutional warnings), imposed disciplinary actions against 65 Shinhan Bank employees and assessed a fine ofW87.5 million after finding that Shinhan Bank had illegally monitoredits customer accounts, breached confidentiality with respect to certain financial transactions and violated its obligation to disclose and report to the Financial Supervisory Service an investment in an affiliated company of Shinhan Bank. Furthermore, in March 2013 the Financial Supervisory Service conducted a special audit of Shinhan Bank as to incidents of alleged malfunctioning of its financial computer network and in December 2013, notified Shinhan Bank of an institutional caution and imposed disciplinary actions against five Shinhan Bank employees after finding that Shinhan Bank did not properly maintain its information technology administrator account and vaccine server.

We consider legal risk as a part of operational risk. The uncertainty of the enforceability of obligations of our customers and counterparties, including foreclosure on collateral, creates legal risk. Changes in laws and regulations could also adversely affect us. Legal risk is higher in new areas of business where the law is often untested in the courts although legal risk can also increase in our traditional business to the extent that the legal and regulatory landscape in Korea changes and many new laws and regulations governing the banking industry remain untested. We seek to minimize legal risk by using stringent legal documentation, employing procedures designed to ensure that transactions are properly authorized and consulting legal advisers. The Compliance Department operates Shinhan Financial Group’s compliance system. This system is designed to ensure that all employees of Shinhan Financial Group and its subsidiaries comply with the relevant laws and regulations. The compliance system’s main function is to monitor the degree of improvement in compliance with the relevant laws and regulations, maintain internal controls (including ensuring that each department has established proper internal policies and that it complies with those policies) and educate employees about observance of the relevant laws and regulations. The Compliance Department also supervises the management, execution and performance of self-audits.
Upgrades ofto Risk Management SystemSystems
Our recent material upgrades in relation to risk management systems are as follows.
Shinhan Financial Group
In May 2015, we developed and implemented a credit review system to unify our corporate credit review and risk measurements, allowing us and our subsidiaries to utilize a uniform and consistent credit review system
with respect to each borrower. In addition, in preparation of thefull implementation of Basel III requirements relating to liquidity coverage ratio regulationsratios for bank holding companies and to enhance our liquidity risk management capabilities, we are currently developinghave implemented a Basel III liquidity coverage ratio risk management system in order to enhanceby which we calculate our liquidity risk management capabilities.coverage ratio each month.
Shinhan Bank
In order to strengthen risk management of its overseas subsidiaries and effectively comply with local and domestic regulations, Shinhan Bank is in the process of laying out a global risk management system network, which records the risk data of its overseas subsidiaries. Shinhan Bank seeks to leverage the development of this system for further overseas expansion and stable growth of existing overseas subsidiaries. To date, Shinhan Bank has completed the development of such system for its subsidiaries in China, Japan, Vietnam, the United States, Canada, India, Europe and Mexico. Shinhan Bank also plans to expand the application of this system to its other overseas subsidiaries.
Shinhan Bank has also completed development of a system to calculate stressed VaR based on Basel II standards in order to prepare for stress situations such as the global financial crisis in 2008. Shinhan Bank has received approval for such system from the Financial Supervisory Service and has been implemented since 2012.
In 2012, Shinhan Bank developed a system for improving collection and recovery of bad assets through enhanced loss given default data processing. In addition, in 2012, Shinhan Bank received approvals from the Financial Supervisory Service for upgrades to its credit evaluation modeling for risk assessment of small- tomedium-sized enterprises that are not required to be audited by outside accounting firms and for SOHOs, which upgrades related to factoring in the credit profile of the head of such enterprises and SOHOs. In 2014, Shinhan Bank further upgraded the credit evaluation modeling for risk assessment of small- andmedium-size enterprises that are not required to be audited by outside accounting firms by entirely revamping the modeling for enterprises subject to outside audits, enterprises that are not subject to outside auditors and enterprise heads. Such upgraded modeling was approved by the Financial Supervisory Service, and Shinhan Bank began implementation of the upgraded system since 2014. In 2014, Shinhan Bank reclassified its credit evaluation models for risk assessment of enterprises into the following four categories: (i) IFRS (enterprises subject to external audits under Korean IFRS), (ii) GAAP (enterprises subject to external audits under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), (iii) small- andmedium-size enterprises and (iv) SOHO. Such reclassification was approved by the Financial Supervisory Service, and Shinhan Bank began to implement the system in 2015.
In addition, in 2013, Shinhan Bank obtained approval from the Financial Supervisory Service to use an internal evaluation model with respect to Basel II credit risks related to Shinhan Bank’s retail SOHO exposures. In 2016, Shinhan Bank developed a new internal evaluation model and obtained approval from the Financial Supervisory Service to use the new model with respect to Basel II credit risks related to Shinhan Bank’s retail exposures. In addition, Shinhan Bank received another approval in 2016 for loss given default data processing using the AIRB approach in order to reflect changes in economic conditions such as prolonged recovery periods and low interest rates, and the newly approved loss given default data processing will replace existing loss given default data processing for both retail and SOHO exposures.
Shinhan Bank also upgraded the asset and liability management system in 2012 in order to timely comply with Basel III, IFRS and other regulatory requirements as well as to upgrade the quality of risk-related data. In 2014, Shinhan Bank upgraded the liquidity coverage ratio and net stable funding ratio systems under Basel III in order to facilitate daily measurement and efficient management.
Following the approval by the Financial Supervisory Service of the advanced measurement approach for risk management, Shinhan Bank hasre-established the operational risk management system in order to further enhance its operational risk management capabilities.
Shinhan Card
In 2012, Shinhan Card completed further upgrades to its credit risk measurement system in satisfaction of the Basel II standards, as well as other regulatory requirements and internal needs in order to address the ongoing volatility in the economic and regulatory environment. In December 2016, Shinhan Card obtained approval from the Financial Supervisory Service to use a new internal evaluation model with respect to Basel III credit risks related to its retail and SOHO exposures.
Shinhan Investment
In 2016, Shinhan Investment established a Risk Engineering Team and updated its market risk management system to increase its value assessment capabilities for OTCover-the-counter derivatives, strengthen its VaR risk analysis capabilities and improve various simulation functions.
Shinhan Life Insurance
In 2017, Shinhan Life Insurance updated its interest rate risk measurement system, called the ALM system, in anticipation ofKorea-ICS, a new insurance liability market valuation system designed to replace the existing risk based capital system, and IFRS 17. In 2018, the new asset liability management system implemented an interest rate risk management system based on the Europe Solvency II standard. The asset liability management system can measure both asset and liability based on marking to market valuation. Shinhan Life Insurance also updated its interest rate risk management system to control net income margin volatility resulting from market interest rate changes and has tailored its business scheme to this system in order to better manage risk and profits and match the duration of its assets and liabilities.In 2019, Shinhan Life Insurance further upgraded its insurance risk measurement system in anticipation ofKorea-ICS, which is expected to become effective beginning 2022. However, on March 17, 2020, the IASB announced deferral of the effective date for IFRS 17 from 2022 to 2023, and it is likely thatKorea-ICS will correspondingly also become effective beginning 2023. The upgraded system can more elaborately measure insurance risk associated with mortality, longevity, morbidity, disability, lapse and expenses. Shinhan Life Insurance measures its insurance risk using shock scenarios and parameters calibration based on internal statistical estimates.
Orange Life Insurance
Orange Life Insurance operates a risk management system based on the Europe Solvency II standard. In 2014, Orange Life Insurance transitioned from an available financial resources at risk (AFRaR) model to the economic value at risk (EVaR) model, assessing risk through changes in net asset value resulting from shock scenarios reflecting volatility of cash flow due to from changes in insurance and interest rates. In 2019, Orange Life Insurance further upgraded its risk management system and established a new solvency system to calculate economic capital based on Monte Carlo experiments, a broad class of computational algorithms relying on repeated random sampling to obtain numerical results. This new solvency system has enabled automation of the economic capital calculation process and the establishment of an auditable governance framework, and also supports various tasks such as capital projection, budgeting and calculation of regulatory capital in anticipation ofKorea-ICS, which is expected to become effective beginning 2022. In addition, this system is designed to provide flexibility and insight for management by providing analysis on the overall distribution of Orange Life Insurance’s net assets.
Supervision and Regulation
Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies

The Korean financial holding companies and their subsidiaries are regulated by the Financial Holding Companies Act (last amended on JulyDecember 31, 2015,2018, Law No. 13453)16182). In addition, Korean financial holding companies and their subsidiaries are subject to the regulations and supervision of the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service.
Pursuant to the Financial Holding Companies Act, the Financial Services Commission regulates various activities of financial holding companies. For instance, it approves the application for setting up a new financial holding company and promulgates regulations on the capital adequacy of financial holding companies and their subsidiaries and other regulations relating to the supervision of financial holding companies.
The Financial Supervisory Service is subject to the instructions and directives of the Financial Services Commission and carries out supervision and examination of financial holding companies and their subsidiaries. In particular, the Financial Supervisory Service sets forth liquidity and capital adequacy requirements for financial holding companies and reporting requirements pursuant to the authority delegated to the Financial Supervisory Service under the Financial Services Commission regulations, pursuant to which financial holding companies are required to submit quarterly reports on business performance, financial status and other matters prescribed in the Presidential Decree of the Financial Holding Companies Act.
Under the Financial Holding Companies Act, the establishment of a financial holding company must be approved by the Financial Services Commission.

All financial holding companies, however, are required to maintain a specified level of solvency. In addition, in its allocation of the net profit earned in a fiscal term, a financial holding company is required to set aside in its legal reserve an amount equal to at least 10% of the net income after tax each time it pays dividends on its net profits earned until its legal reserve reaches at least the aggregate amount of itspaid-in capital.

For regulatory reporting purposes, we maintain allowances for credit losses on the following loan classifications that classify corporate and retail loans as required by the Financial Services Commission. In making these classifications, we take into account a number of factors, including the financial position, profitability and transaction history of the borrower, the value of any collateral or guarantee taken as security for the extension of credit, probability of default and loss amount in the event of default. This classification method, and our related provisioning policy, is intended to reflect the borrower’s capacity to repay. To the extent there is any conflict between the Financial Services Commission guidelines and our internal analysis in such classifications, we adopt whichever is more conservative.
The following table sets forth loan classifications according to the guidelines of the Financial Services Commission.
Loan Classification | Loan Characteristics | |
| Normal | Loans extended to customers that, based on our consideration of their business, financial position and future cash flows, do not raise concerns regarding their ability to repay the loans. | |
Precautionary | Loans extended to customers that (i) based on our consideration of their business, financial position and future cash flows, show potential risks with respect to their ability to repay the loans, although showing no immediate default risk or (ii) are in arrears for one month or more but less than three months. | |
Substandard | (i) Loans extended to customers that, based on our consideration of their business, financial position and future cash flows, are judged to have incurred considerable default risks as their ability to repay has deteriorated; or
(ii) the portion that we expect to collect of total loans (a) extended to customers that have been in arrears for three months or more, (b) extended to customers that have incurred serious default risks due to the occurrence of, among other things, final refusal to pay their debt instruments, entry into liquidation or bankruptcy proceedings or closure of their businesses, or (c) extended to customers who have outstanding loans that are classified as “doubtful” or “estimated loss.” | |
Doubtful | Loans exceeding the amount that we expect to collect of total loans to customers that:
(i) based on our consideration of their business, financial position and future cash flows, have incurred serious default risks due to noticeable deterioration in their ability to repay; or
(ii) have been in arrears for three months or more but less than twelve months. | |
Estimated loss | Loans exceeding the amount that we expect to collect of total loans to customers that:
(i) based on our consideration of their business, financial position and future cash flows, are judged to be accounted as a loss because the inability to repay became certain due to serious deterioration in their ability to repay;
(ii) have been in arrears for twelve months or more; or
(iii) have incurred serious risks of default in repayment due to the occurrence of, among other things, final refusal to pay their debt instruments, liquidation or bankruptcy proceedings or closure of their business. | |
In accordance with the Regulations for the Supervision of Financial Institutions, we establish regulatory reserve for loan loss in the amount of the difference between allowance for credit losses as calculated pursuant to our provisioning policy in accordance with IFRS and allowance for credit losses based on the loan classifications set forth above as required by the Financial Services Commission. In determining consolidated equity capital ratio, we deduct regulatory reserve for loan loss from equity capital.

(b) a shareholder holding (together with persons who have a special relationship with such shareholder as defined in the Presidential Decree of the Financial Holding Companies Act) more than 4% in the aggregate of the total issued and outstanding voting shares of the financial holding company controlling national banks (other than a financial holding company controlling regional banks only), excluding shares related to the shareholding restrictions onnon-financial business group companies as described below, where such shareholder is the largest shareholder or has actual control over the major business affairs of the financial holding company through, for example, appointment and dismissal of the officers pursuant to the Presidential Decree of the Financial Holding Companies Act.
In addition, the total sum of the Bank Holding Company Total Credit extended to all of a bank holding company’s Major Shareholder may not exceed 25% of the Net Total Equity Capital. Furthermore, the bank holding company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries that intend to extend the Bank Holding Company Total Credit to the bank holding company’s Major Shareholder not less than the lesser of (i) the amount equivalent to 0.1% of the Net Total Equity Capital or (ii) W5 billion, with respect to a single transaction, must obtain prior unanimous board resolutions and then, immediately after the completion of the transaction, must file a report with the Financial Services Commission and publicly disclose the filing of such report (for example, through a website).
Restrictions on Transactions among Direct and Indirect Subsidiaries and Financial Holding Company
Generally, a direct or indirect subsidiary of a financial holding company may not extend credit to the financial holding company which directly or indirectly controls such subsidiary. In addition, a direct or indirect
subsidiary of a financial holding company may not extend credit to any other single direct or indirect subsidiary of the financial holding company in excess of 10% of its stockholders’ equity and to any other direct and indirect subsidiaries of the financial holding company in excess of 20% of its stockholders’ equity in the aggregate. The direct or indirect subsidiaries of a financial holding company must obtain an appropriate level of collateral for the credits extended to the other direct and indirect subsidiaries unless otherwise approved by the Financial Services Commission. The appropriate level of collateral for each type of such collateral is as follows:
| (i) | For deposits and installment savings, obligations of the |
| (ii) | (a) For obligations of local governments under the Local Autonomy Act, local public enterprises under the Local Public Enterprises Act, and investment institutions and other quasi-investment institutions under the Basic Act on the Management of Government-Invested Institution (hereinafter, the “public institutions and others”); (b) obligations guaranteed by the public institutions and others; and (c) obligations secured by the securities issued or guaranteed by public institutions and others: 110% of the amount of the credit extended; and |
| (iii) | For any property other than those set forth in the above (i) and (ii): 130% of the amount of the credit extended. |
Subject to certain exceptions, a direct or indirect subsidiary of a financial holding company is prohibited from owning the shares of any other direct or indirect subsidiaries (other than those directly controlled by the direct and indirect subsidiaries in question) in common control by the financial holding company. However, a direct or indirect subsidiary of a financial holding company may invest as a limited partner in a private equity fund that is a direct or indirect subsidiary of the same financial holding company. The transfer of certain assets subject to or below the precautionary criteria between the financial holding company and its direct or indirect subsidiary or between the direct and indirect subsidiaries of a financial holding company is prohibited except for (i) the transfer to an asset-backed securitization company, typically a special purpose entity, or the entrustment with a trust company, under the Asset-Backed Securitization Act, (ii) the transfer to a mortgage-backed securitization company under the Mortgage-Backed Securitization Company Act, (iii) the transfer orin-kind contribution to a corporate restructuring vehicle under the Corporate Restructuring Investment Company Act or (iv) the acquisition by a corporate restructuring company under the Industrial Development Act.
Disclosure of Management Performance
For the purpose of protecting the depositors and investors in the subsidiaries of the financial holding companies, the Financial Services Commission requires financial holding companies to disclose certain material matters including (i) financial condition and profit and loss of the financial holding company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, (ii) how capital was raised by the financial holding company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and how such capital was used, (iii) any sanctions levied on the financial holding company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries under the Financial Holding Companies Act or any corrective measures or sanctions under the Law on Improvement of Structure of Financial Industry or (iv) occurrence of anynon-performing assets or financial incident which may have a material adverse effect.
Restrictions on Shareholdings in Other Companies
Subject to certain exceptions, a bank holding company may not own more than 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of another company (other than its direct and indirect subsidiaries). If the financial holding company owns shares of another company (other than its direct and indirect subsidiaries) which is not a finance-related company, the financial holding company is required to exercise its voting rights in the same manner and same proportion as the other shareholders of the company exercise their voting rights in favor of or against any resolutions under consideration at the shareholders’ meeting of the company.
Restrictions on Shareholdings by Direct and Indirect Subsidiaries
Generally, a direct subsidiary of a financial holding company is prohibited from controlling any other company;providedthat a direct subsidiary of a financial holding company may control (as an indirect subsidiary of the financial holding company): (i) subsidiaries in foreign jurisdiction which are engaged in a financial business, (ii) certain financial institutions which are engaged in the business that the direct subsidiary may conduct without any licenses or permits, (iii) certain financial institutions whose business is related to the business of the direct subsidiary as prescribed under the Presidential Decree of the Financial Holding Companies Act (for example, the companies which a bank subsidiary may control are limited to credit information companies, credit card companies, trust business companies, securities investment management companies, investment advisory companies, futures business companies, and asset management companies), (iv) certain financial institutions whose business is related to financial business as prescribed by the regulations of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, and (v) certain companies which are not financial institutions but whose business is related to the financial business of the financial holding company as prescribed by the Presidential Decree of the Financial Holding Companies Act (e.g. finance-related research company, finance-related information technology company, etc.). Acquisition by the direct subsidiaries of such indirect subsidiaries requires a prior permission from the Financial Services Commission or a report to be submitted to the Financial Services Commission, depending on the types of the indirect subsidiaries and the amount of total assets of the indirect subsidiaries.
An indirect subsidiary of a financial holding company is prohibited from controlling any other company, provided, however, that in the case where a company held control over another company at the time such company initially became an indirect subsidiary of a financial holding company, such indirect subsidiary shall be required to dispose of its interest in such other company within two years after becoming an indirect subsidiary of a financial holding company.
A subsidiary of a financial holding company may invest in a special purpose company as its largest shareholder for purposes of making investments under the Act on Private Investment in Social Infrastructure without being deemed as controlling such special purpose company.
In addition, a private equity fund established in accordance with the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act is not considered to be a subsidiary of a financial holding company even if the financial holding company is the largest investor in the private equity fund unless the financial holding company is the asset management company for the private equity fund.
Restrictions on Transactions Between a Financial Holding Company and its Major Shareholder
A bank holding company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are prohibited from acquiring (including acquisition by a trust account of its subsidiary bank) shares issued by such bank holding company’s Major Shareholder in excess of 1% of the Net Total Equity Capital. In addition, the financial holding company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries which intend to acquire shares issued by such Major Shareholder not less than the lesser of (i) the amount equivalent to 0.1% of the Net Total Equity Capital or (ii) W5 billion, with respect to a single transaction, must obtain prior unanimous board resolutions and then, immediately after the acquisition, must file a report with the Financial Services Commission and publicly disclose the filing of such report (for example, through a website).
Restrictions on Financial Holding Company Ownership
Under the Financial Holding Companies Act, foreign financial institutions are permitted to establish financial holding companies in Korea. Pursuant to the Presidential Decree of the Financial Holding Companies Act, a foreign financial institution can control a financial holding company if, subject to satisfying certain other conditions, it, together with its specially-related persons, holds 100% of the total shares in the financial holding company.
In addition, any single shareholder and persons who stand in a special relationship with such shareholder (as defined under the Presidential Decree to the Financial Holding Companies Act) may acquire beneficial ownership of up to 10% of the total issued and outstanding shares with voting rights of a financial holding company controlling national banks (or 15% in the case of a financial holding company controlling regional banks only). The Government and the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation are not subject to such a ceiling.
However, “non-financial“non-financial business group companies” (as defined below) may not acquire beneficial ownership of shares of a bank holding company in excess of 4% of such financial holding company’s outstanding voting shares, provided that suchnon-financial business group companies may acquire beneficial ownership of up to 10% of such financial holding company’s outstanding voting shares with the approval of the Financial Services Commission under the condition that suchnon-financial business group companies will not exercise voting rights in respect of such shares in excess of the 4% limit. In addition, any person (whether a Korean national or a foreigner), with the exception ofnon-financial business group companies described above, may also acquire in excess of 10% of total voting shares issued and outstanding of a financial holding company which controls national bank, provided that an approval from the Financial Services Commission is obtained in instances where the total holding exceeds 10% (or 15% in the case of a financial holding company controlling regional banks only), 25% or 33% of the total voting shares issued and outstanding of such bank holding company.
“Non-financial business group companies”are defined under the Financial Holding Companies Act as companies, which include:
| (i) | any same shareholder group with aggregate net assets of allnon-financial business companies belonging to such group of not less than 25% of the aggregate net assets of all members of such group; |
| (ii) | any same shareholder group with aggregate assets of allnon-financial business companies belonging to such group of not less than |
| (iii) | any mutual fund in which |
| (iv) | any private equity fund (x) which has a partner with limited liability that falls under item (i), (ii) or (iii) above and holds equity equivalent to 10% or greater of the total amount invested by the private equity fund, (y) which has a partner with unlimited liability that falls under item (i), (ii) or (iii) above or (z) whose affiliates belonging to an enterprise group subject to limitation on mutual investment hold in aggregate equity equivalent to 30% or greater of the total amount invested by such private equity fund; or |
| (v) | any investment purpose company in which a private equity fund that falls under item (iv) above acquires and holds no less than 4% of such company’s shares or equity or exercisesde-facto influence on such company’s significant managerial matters. |
The Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies
The Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies came into effect as of August 1, 2016. The Act was enacted to address calls for strengthened regulations on corporate governance of financial companies and to serve as a uniform regulation on corporate governance matters applicable to all financial companies in place of the separate regulations for each sector that existed. The Act contains several key measures, including, but not limited, to (i) condition of eligibility of officers of financial companies and standards for determining whether financial companies’ officers may hold concurrent positions in other companies, (ii) standards for composition and operation of board of directors, (iii) standards for establishment, composition and operation of committees of the board of directors, (iv) internal control and risk management, (v) requirements and procedures for the approval of a change of major shareholders and (vi) special regulations for rights of minority shareholders of financial companies.
Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act
General
The Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act categorizes capital markets-related business into six different functions, as follows:
dealing (trading and underwriting of “financial investment products” (as defined below));
brokerage (brokerage of financial investment products);
collective investment (establishment of collective investment schemes and the management thereof);
investment advice;
discretionary investment management; and
trusts (together with the five businessbusinesses set forth above, the “Financial Investment Businesses”).
Accordingly, all financial businessbusinesses relating to financial investment products are reclassified as one or more of the Financial Investment Businesses described above, and financial institutions are subject to the regulations applicable to their relevant Financial Investment Businesses, irrespective of the type of the financial institution it is. For example, under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, derivative businesses conducted by securities companies and future companies will be subject to the same regulations under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, at least in principle.
The banking business and insurance business are not subject to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and will continue to be regulated under separate laws; provided, however, that they may become subject to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act if their activities involve any financial investment businesses requiring a license based on the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act.
Comprehensive Definition of Financial Investment Products
In an effort to encompass the various types of securities and derivative products available in the capital markets, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act sets forth a comprehensive term “financial investment products,” defined to mean all financial products with a risk of loss in the invested amount (in contrast to “deposits,” which are not financial investment products for which the invested amount is protected or preserved). Financial investment products are classified into two major categories: (i) “securities” (relating to financial investment products where the risk of loss is limited to the invested amount) and (ii) “derivatives” (relating to financial investment products where the risk of loss may exceed the invested amount). As a result of the general and open-ended manner in which financial investment products are defined, any future financial product could potentially fall under the definition of financial investment products, which would enable Financial Investment Companies (as defined below) to handle a broader range of financial products. Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, securities companies, asset management companies, futures companies and other entities engaging in any Financial Investment Business are classified as “Financial Investment Companies.”
License System
Financial Investment Companies are able to choose what Financial Investment Business to engage in (through the “check the box” method set forth in the relevant license application), by specifying the desired (i) Financial Investment Business, (ii) financial investment product and (iii) target customers to which financial investment products may be sold (namely, general investors or professional investors). Licenses will be issued under the specific businesssub-categories described above. For example, it would be possible for a Financial Investment Company to obtain a license to engage in the Financial Investment Business of (i) dealing(ii) over the counterover-the-counter derivatives products (iii) only with professional investors.
Expanded Business Scope of Financial Investment Companies
Under the previous regulatory regime in Korea, it was difficult for a financial institution to explore a new line of business or expand upon its existing line of business. For example, a financial institution licensed as a securities company generally could not engage in the asset management business. In contrast, under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, pursuant to the integration of its current business involving financial investment products into a single Financial Investment Business, a licensed Financial Investment Company is permitted to engage in all types of Financial Investment Businesses, subject to compliance with the relevant regulations, for example, maintaining an adequate “Chinese Wall,” to the extent required. As to incidental businesses (i.e., a financial related business which is not a Financial Investment Business), the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act generally allows a Financial Investment Company to freely engage in such incidental businesses by shifting away from the previous system of permitting only the listed activities towards a more comprehensive system. In addition, a Financial Investment Company is permitted (i) to outsource marketing activities by contracting with “introducing brokers” that are individuals but not employees of the Financial Investment Company, (ii) to engage in foreign exchange business related to their Financial Investment Business and (iii) to participate in the settlement network, pursuant to an agreement among the settlement network participants.
Improvement in Investor Protection Mechanism
While the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act broadens the scope of financial businesses in which financial institutions are permitted to engage, a more rigorous investor-protection mechanism is imposed upon Financial Investment Companies dealing in financial investment products. The Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act makes a distinction between general investors and sophisticated investors and provides new or enhanced protections to general investors. For instance, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act expressly provides for strict know-your-customer rules for general investors and imposes an obligation on Financial Investment Companies that they should market financial investment products suitable to each general investor considering his or her personal attributes, including investment objective, net worth, and investment experience. Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, a Financial Investment Company can be held liable if a general investor proves (i) damages or losses relating to such general investor’s investment in financial investment products solicited by such Financial Investment Company and (ii) absence of explanation, false explanation, or omission of material fact (without having to prove fault or causation). In case there are any conflicts of interest between the Financial Investment Companies and investors, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act expressly requires (i) disclosure of any conflict of interest to investors and (ii) mitigation of conflicts of interest to a comfortable level or abstention from the relevant transaction.
Other Regulatory Changes Related to Securities and Investments
The Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act brought changes to various rules in securities regulations including those relating to public disclosure, insider trading and proxy contests, which had previously been governed by the Securities and Exchange Act. For example, the 5% and 10% reporting obligations under the Securities and Exchange Act have become more stringent under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. For instance, the numbersnumber of events requiring an investor to update its 5% report have increased under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. Previously, only a change in the shareholding of 1% or more or in the purpose of shareholding (such as an intention to influence management) could trigger the obligation to update the 5% report. The Government has issued detailed regulations stipulating additional events requiring updates to 5% reports, such as the change in the type of holding and change in any major aspect of the relevant contract. As for the 10% report filing obligation, the initial filing is expected to be required to be made within five business days of the date of the event triggering the 10% reporting obligation, compared to 10 calendar days under the previous law. The due date for reporting a subsequent change after the initial 10% report filing has been reduced from the 10th day of the first month immediately following the month
in which such change took place to five business days of the date of such change. Under the previous law, there had been a limitation on the type of investment vehicles that could be used in a collective investment scheme (namely, to trusts and corporations), the type of funds that could be used for collective investments, and the types of assets and investment securities a fund could invest in. However, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act significantly liberalizes these restrictions, permitting all legal entities, including limited liability companies or partnerships, to be used for the purpose of collective investments, allowing the formation of fund complexes and permitting investment funds to invest in a wide variety of different assets and investment instruments.
Principal Regulations Applicable to Banks
General
The banking system in Korea is governed by the Banking Act and the Bank of Korea Act of 1950, as amended (the “Bank of Korea Act”). In addition, Korean banks are subject to the regulations and supervision of the Bank of Korea, the Bank of Korea’s Monetary Policy Committee, the Financial Services Commission and its executive body, the Financial Supervisory Service.
The Bank of Korea, established in June 1950 under the Bank of Korea Act, performs the customary functions of a central bank. It seeks to contribute to the sound development of the national economy by price stabilization through establishing and implementing efficient monetary and credit policies. The Bank of Korea acts under instructions of the Monetary Policy Committee, the supreme policy-making body of the Bank of Korea.
Under the Bank of Korea Act, the Monetary Policy Committee’s primary responsibilities are to formulate monetary and credit policies and to determine the operations, management and administration of the Bank of Korea. The Financial Services Commission, established on April 1, 1998 as the Financial Supervisory Commission and later changed its name to the Financial Services Commission on March 3, 2008, regulates commercial banks pursuant to the Banking Act, including establishing guidelines on capital adequacy of commercial banks, and promulgates regulations relating to supervision of banks. Furthermore, pursuant to the Amendment to the Government Organization Act and the Banking Act on May 24, 1999, the Financial Services Commission, instead of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, now regulates market entry into the banking business.
The Financial Supervisory Service is subject to the instructions and directives of the Financial Services Commission and carries out supervision and examination of commercial banks. In particular, the Financial Supervisory Service sets requirements both for the prudent control of liquidity and for capital adequacy and establishes reporting requirements pursuant to the authority delegated to it under the Financial Services Commission regulations, pursuant to which banks are required to submit annual reports on financial performance and shareholdings, regular reports on management strategy andnon-performing loans, including write-offs, and management of problem companies and plans for the settlement of bad loans.
Under the Banking Act, approval to commence a commercial banking business or a long-term financing business must be obtained from the Financial Services Commission. Commercial banking business is defined as the lending of funds acquired predominantly from the acceptance of deposits for a period not exceeding one year or, subject to the limitation established by the Financial Services Commission, for a period between one year and three years. Long-term financing business is defined as the lending, for periods in excess of one year, of funds acquired predominantly frompaid-in capital, reserves or other retained earnings, the acceptance of deposits with maturities of at least one year, or the issuance of bonds or other securities. A bank wishing to enter any business other than commercial banking and long-term financing businesses, such as the trust business, must obtain approval from the Financial Services Commission. Approval to merge with any other banking institution, to liquidate, to close a banking business or to transfer all or a part of a business must also be obtained from the Financial Services Commission.
If the Financial Services Commission deems a bank’s financial condition to be unsound or if a bank fails to meet the applicable capital adequacy ratio set forth under Korean law, the Financial Services Commission may order, among others,:
capital increases or reductions;
suspension of officers’ performance of their duties and appointment of custodians;
stock cancellations or consolidations;
transfers of a part or all of business;
sale of assets and bar on acquisition of high-risk assets;
closures or downsizing of branch offices or workforce;
mergers or becoming a subsidiary under the Financial Holding Companies Act of a financial holding company;
acquisition of a bank by a third party;
suspensions of a part or all of business operation; or
assignments of contractual rights and obligations relating to financial transactions.
Capital Adequacy
The Banking Act requires nationwide banks to maintain a minimumpaid-in capital ofW100 billion and regional banks to maintain a minimumpaid-in capital ofW25 billion.
In addition to minimum capital requirements, all banks including foreign bank branches in Korea are required to maintain a prescribed solvency position. A bank must also set aside as its legal reserve an amount equal to at least 10% of its net profits after tax each time it pays dividends on net profits earned until such time when the reserve equals the amount of its totalpaid-in capital.
Under the Banking Act, the capital of a bank is divided into two categories: Tier I and Tier II capital. Tier I capital (typically referred to as “Core Capital”) consists of (i) the capital that can absorb losses incurred by a bank such as capital, capital surplus and earned surplus generated from the issuance of common shares (collectively, “Common Stock Capital”), and (ii) the capital that can absorb the losses of a bank after depletion of the Common Stock Capital such as capital and capital surplus generated from the issuance of Tier I capital instruments satisfying the requirements designated by the Financial Supervisory Service (collectively, “Other Core Capital”). Tier II capital (typically referred to as “Supplementary Capital”) represents the capital which is equivalent to, but not included in, the Core Capital and can absorb losses incurred upon the liquidation of a bank such as capital and capital surplus generated from the issuance of Tier II capital instruments satisfying the requirements designated by the Financial Supervisory Service and allowance for bad debts set aside for loans classified as “normal” or “precautionary.”
Under the Detailed Regulations on the Supervision of the Banking Business, Tier I capital instruments must satisfy, among others, the following requirements in order to be recognized as Other Core Capital:
| (i) | the price for such instruments shall have been fully paid through the procedure for issuance, and the instruments shall be in a perpetual form with no cause triggering astep-up or redemption; |
| (ii) | such instruments shall be bound by a special agreement on being subordinate to depositors, general creditors and subordinated debt of the bank (referring to a special agreement under which subordinated creditors’ right to claim payment shall take effect only after unsubordinated creditors’ claims are fully paid, when bankruptcy or any similar incident occurs; hereinafter the same shall apply) but shall not fall within liabilities exceeding assets at the time when bankruptcy is declared under the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act; |
| (iii) | the payment of dividends or interests shall be suspended from the date when the bank is designated as a “insolvent financial institution” under the Act on Structural Improvement of the Financial Industry of Korea or under the Depositor Protection act of Korea as applicable, or the Financial Supervisory Service takes measures under the Regulations on the Supervision of the Banking Business such as the managerial improvement recommendation, the managerial improvement request, the managerial improvement order and the emergency measures against the bank to the date when the above-mentioned event is removed; |
| (iv) | the payment of dividends or interests shall not be determined in connection with the credit rating of the bank; |
| (v) | the dividends may only be paid out of distributable income; |
| (vi) | the bank shall be able to revoke in its sole discretion the payment of dividends or interests at any time; |
| (vii) | the cancellation of paying dividends must not impose restrictions on the bank except in relation to dividends to common stockholders; |
| (viii) | the revocation of the payment of dividends or interests shall not be deemed as the event of defaults, and the bank shall be able to use in its sole discretion the amount which was revoked to pay as dividends or interests to redeem any other debts of the bank then due and payable; |
| (ix) | such instruments shall not be redeemed within five years from the issuance date and the bank shall be able to determine in its sole discretion whether it redeems such instruments even after five years from the issuance date, and the instruments shall not be subject to any condition that arouse investors’ expectation to have the instruments redeemed or any condition that imposes a burden of redemption upon the issuing bank in fact; |
| (x) | the requirements prescribed in Appendix3-5 (Trigger Events for Contingent Capital Securities) of the Detailed Enforcement Rules of Regulation on Supervision of Banking Business shall be satisfied; |
| (xi) | the bank or the person who has de facto control over the bank shall not purchase capital instruments or provide a purchaser of such securities with funds for the purchase by providing a collateral or guarantee for payment or by lending a loan, shall not raise the priority of its claims, legally or economically, for the price paid for the securities, and shall not provide a collateral or guarantee to the purchasers of the securities directly or via a related company; and |
| (xii) | such capital instruments shall have no condition that hinders the issuing bank’s procurement or expansion of capital in the future. |
Under the Detailed Regulations on the Supervision of the Banking Business, Tier II capital instruments must satisfy, among others, the following requirements in order to be recognized as Supplementary Capital:
| (i) | the procedure for issuance shall have been completed, the price for such capital instruments shall have been fully paid, and the capital instruments shall be bound by a special agreement of subordination to deposits and ordinary debts; |
| (ii) | the maturity shall not be less than five years from the issuance date, and Tier II capital instruments shall not be redeemed within five years from the issuance date; |
| (iii) | there is no condition to promote the bank to redeem such capital instruments such as astep-up provision, and the bank shall be able to determine in its sole discretion whether to redeem such instruments prior to the maturity date, and the instruments shall not be subject to any condition that arouse investors’ expectation to have the instruments redeemed or any condition that imposes a burden of redemption upon the issuing bank in fact; |
| (iv) | other than the case where the bank is subject to the bankruptcy or liquidation, the holder of Tier II capital instruments shall not have the right to require bank to pay the principal or interests of such instruments earlier than the original due date thereof; |
| (v) | the payment of dividends or interests shall not be determined in connection with the credit rating of the bank; |
| (vi) | the requirements prescribed in Appendix3-5 (Trigger Events for Contingent Capital Securities) of the Detailed Enforcement Rules of Regulation on Supervision of Banking Business shall be satisfied; |
| (vii) | the bank or any person or entity over which the bank exercises substantial control shall not purchase the capital instruments issued by such bank nor provide, directly or indirectly, the funds to acquire the capital instruments by providing any collateral or guaranty or loan in favor of the person or entity which tries to acquire such instruments; and |
| (viii) | the bank shall not enhance, legally or economically, the payment priority of the capital instruments, nor provide, directly or indirectly through its affiliated company, any collateral or guaranty in favor of the person or entity which acquires such instruments. |
All banks must meet standards regarding minimum ratios of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) to risk-weighted assets, determined in accordance with the Financial Services Commission requirements that have been formulated based on the BIS Standards. These standards were adopted and became effective in 1996. Under these regulations, all domestic banks and foreign bank branches are required to meet the minimum ratio of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) to risk-weighted assets of 8%.
Furthermore, as Basel III was adopted and is being implemented in stages in Korea startingsince December 1, 2013, all banks in Korea are required to meet minimum ratios of common stock capital (less any capital deductions) and core capital (less any capital deductions) to risk-weighted assets as set out in the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business. The required minimum ratio of common stock capital (less any capital deductions) to risk-weighted assets is 4.5%, and the required minimum ratio of core capital (less any capital deductions) to risk-weighted assets is 6.0%. In addition, additional capital conservation buffer requirements are beinghave been implemented in stages from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2019. Under such requirements, all banks in Korea are required to maintain a capital conservation buffer of 0.625% from January 1, 2016, which will bewas gradually increased to 1.25% on January 1, 2017, 1.875% on January 1, 2018 and 2.5% on January 1, 2019.
Under the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business and the Detailed Regulations promulgated thereunder, Korean banks apply the following risk-weight ratios in respect of their home mortgage loans:
(1) for those banks adopting a standardized approach for calculating credit risk-weighted assets, the risk-weight ratio of 35% (only in the case where the loan is fully secured by a first ranking mortgage); and
| (i) | for those banks adopting a standardized approach for calculating credit risk-weighted assets, the risk-weight ratio of 35% (only in the case where the loan is fully secured by a first ranking mortgage); and |
(2)
| (ii) | for those banks adopting an internal ratings-based approach for calculating credit risk-weighted assets, a risk-weight ratio calculated with reference to the probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default, each as defined in the Detailed Regulations on the Supervision of the Banking Business. |
In Korea, Basel II, a convention entered into by the Basel committee in June 2004 for the purpose of improving risk management and increasing capital adequacy of banks, was implemented in January 2008. Pursuant to Basel II, operational risk, such as inadequate procedure, loss risk by employees, internal system, occurrence of unexpected event, as well as credit risk and market risk, is taken into account in calculating the risk-weighted assets, in addition to maintaining the capital adequacy ratio of 8% for banks. Under Basel II, the capital requirements for credit risk can be calculated by the internal rating based (IRB) approach or the standardized approach.
Under the standardized approach, a home mortgage loan fully secured by a first ranking mortgage over the residential property is risk-weighted at 35%., but certain home mortgage loans withloan-to-value ratio exceeding 60% are risk weighted at 50% pursuant to an amendment of the Detailed Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business on December 31, 2018.
Under the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business, banks shall set aside allowances for bad debts for each class of soundness in accordance with the K-IFRS.IFRS as adopted by Korea. If the amount for each class of soundness calculated in accordance with the following criteria exceeds the allowances for bad debts set aside, the excess amount shall, at the time of each settlement of accounts, be set aside as regulatory reserve for credit losses.
0.85% of normal credits (or 0.9% in the case of normal credits comprising loans to certain industries including construction, retail and wholesale sales, accommodations, restaurant, real estate and lease, 1.0% in the case of normal credits comprising loans to individuals and households, 2.5% in the case of normal credits comprising credit card loans and 1.1% in the case of normal credits comprising other credit card receivables);
7% of precautionary credits (or 10% in the case of precautionary credits comprising loans to individuals and households, 50% in the case of precautionary credits comprising credit card loans and 40% in the case of precautionary credits comprising other credit card receivables);
20% of substandard credits (or 10% in the case of substandard credits comprising assets for which the bank has the right to receive payment in priority pursuant to the Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act of Korea or Paragraph 180, Subparagraph 2 of the Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act of Korea (the “Priority Assets”), 65% in the case of substandard credits comprising credit card loans and 60% in the case of substandard credits comprising other credit card receivables);
50% of doubtful credits (or 25% in the case of doubtful credits comprising Priority Assets, 55% in the case of doubtful credits comprising loans to individuals and households and 75% in the case of doubtful credits comprising credit card loans and other credit card receivables); and
100% of estimated loss credits (or 50% in the case of estimated loss credits comprising of Priority Assets).
Furthermore, under the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business, banks must maintain allowances for bad debts and regulatory reserve for credit losses in respect of their confirmed guarantees (including confirmed acceptances) and outstandingnon-used credit lines in an aggregate amount calculated at the same rates applicable to normal, precautionary, substandard, doubtful and estimated loss credits comprising their outstanding loans and other credits as set forth above.
As of January 1, 2016, the Financial Services Commission implemented Basel III requirements relating to accumulation of additional capital for systemically important banks and countercyclical capital buffer requirements. Each year, the Financial Services Commission may designate banks with significant influence (based on size and connectivity with other financial institutions) on the domestic financial system as a domestic systemically important bank and require the accumulation of additional capital in accordance with the highest of: (i) ratio of common equity capital to risk-weighted assets, ranging from 0.0% to 2.0%, depending on the systematic importance evaluation score, (ii) if the bank’s holding company is a domestic systemically important bank holding company, the capital ratio corresponding to the additional capital required for the bank holding company under the Financial Holding Company Supervision Regulations, or (iii) if the bank is also a global systemically important bank, as defined by the Basel Committee, the capital ratio as required by the Basel Committee. Shinhan Financial Group and Shinhan Bank were selected as a domestic systemically important bank holding company and domestic systemically important bank, respectively, for 2017.from 2016 through 2020. According to the instructions of the Financial Services Commission, domestic systematically important banks including Shinhan Bank arehave been required to maintain an additional capital buffer of 0.25% starting onsince January 1, 2016, with such buffer to increaseincreased by 0.25% annually to reach 1.00% byas of January 1, 2019. The Financial Services Commission may also, upon quarterly review, determine and require banks to accumulate a required level of countercyclical capital buffer within the range of 0% to 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, taking into account factors such as the degree of increase in credit relative to the gross domestic product. Since March 2016, the Financial Services Commission has maintained countercyclical capital buffer requirements at 0%, and the Financial Services Commission is expected to maintain
Supervisory Service has maintained the countercyclical capital buffer requirement at 0% for the first quarter of 2017.2020. In addition, the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business is expected to be amended during 2020 to introduce an additional countercyclical capital buffer requirement that specifically addresses the increase of credit in the retail sector. This is in addition to and separate from the existing general countercyclical capital buffer requirements that take into account the degree of increase in credit generally relative to the gross domestic product. The Detailed Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business was also amended on June 30, 2018 to add “concentration of risk in the retail sector” as an additional criterion when the Financial Supervisory Service evaluates the risk management systems of Korean banks.
Liquidity
All banks are required to match the maturities of their assets and liabilities in accordance with the Banking Act in order to ensure adequate liquidity. Banks may not invest in excess of an amount exceeding 100% of their Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) in stocks and other securities with a period remaining to maturity of over three years. However, this restriction does not apply to government bonds or to Monetary Stabilization Bonds issued by the Bank of Korea.
The Financial Services Commission requires Korean banks to maintain a liquidity coverage ratio of at least 80.0% as of January 1, 2015, 85.0% as of January 1, 2016, 90.0% as of January 1, 2017, 95.0% as of January 1, 2018 and 100.0% as of January 1, 2019. The Financial Services Commission defines liquidity coverage ratio as high quality liquid assets that can be easilyimmediately converted tointo cash with little or no loss in value, as divided by the net amount of cash outflow for the next 30 day period, under the stress level established according to the liquidity coverage ratio, pursuant to the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business, which was amended as of June 28, 2016 to implement the liquidity coverage ratio requirements under Basel III.
With respect to foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio, the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business requires that financial institutions dealing with foreign exchange affairs (i.e., banks) whose foreign-currency denominated liabilities are equal to or greater than US$500 million or 5% of its total liabilities, as of the end of the immediately preceding half-year period, maintain a foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio of 60% or higher beginning January 1, 2017, 70% or higher beginning January 1, 2018 and 80% or higher beginning January 1, 2019. The term “foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio” means the ratio of high-liquidity assets to the net cash outflow in respect of foreign-currency denominated assets and liabilities for the next 30 days. In the case of financial institutions dealing with foreign exchange affairs whose foreign-currency denominated liabilities are less than US$500 million and less than 5% of its total liabilities, as of the end of the immediately preceding half-year period, the following ratios shall be maintained and foreign-currency denominated assets and liabilities shall be categorized and managed according to such different remaining maturities: (i) the ratio of assets for which remaining maturities are less than three months to liabilities for which remaining maturities are less than three months shall be at least 85%, and (ii) the assets for which remaining maturities are less than one month shall not exceededexceed liabilities for which the remaining maturities are less than one month by more than 10%.
The Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of Korea is authorized to fix and alter minimum reserve requirements that banks must maintain against their deposit liabilities. The current minimum reserve ratio is 7.0% of average balances for Won-denominated demand deposits outstanding, 0.0% of average balances forWon-denominated employee asset establishment savings deposits, employee long-term savings deposits, employee house purchase savings deposits, long-term house purchase savings deposits, household long-term savings deposits and employee preferential savings deposits outstanding and 2.0% of average balances forWon-denominated time and savings deposits, mutual installments, housing installments and certificates of deposit outstanding. For foreign currency deposit liabilities, a 2.0% minimum reserve ratio is applied to savings deposits outstanding and a 7.0% minimum reserve ratio is applied to demand deposits, while a 1.0% minimum reserve ratio is applied for offshore accounts, immigrant accounts and resident accounts opened by foreign exchange banks.
Loan-to-Deposit Ratio
In December 2009, the Financial Supervisory Service announced that it would introduce a new set of regulations on theloan-to-deposit ratio by amending the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business upon its determination that the overall liquidity of banks in Korea had become unstable due to the ongoing increase in theloan-to-deposit ratio resulting from banks expanding their asset size too competitively by granting mortgages on houses and loans to small- andmedium-sized enterprises over the last couple of years. The Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business, which was amended as of August 19, 2010 and December 26, 2014 and took effect on January 1, 2014 and January 1, 2015, respectively, requires banks with
Won-denominated loans of not less thanW2 trillion in value as of the last month of the immediately preceding quarter to maintain a ratio ofWon-denominated loans (excluding certain types of loans using funds borrowed from Korea Development Bank or the Korean governmentGovernment or loans made under certain operational rules of Korea Federation of Banks) toWon-denominated deposits (excluding certificates of deposit) and the balance of the covered bonds under the Act on Issuance of Covered Bonds, the maturity of which is not less than five years (only in case when such financing from the issuance of covered bonds is used in Won currency and up to 1% ofWon-denominated deposits) not more than 1:1. Shinhan Bank’sloan-to-deposit ratio as of December 31, 20162019 was 97.51%95.4%, based on monthly average balances.
Currently, in calculating the loan to deposit ratio, there is no differentiation between retail loans and corporate loans. However, the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business was amended on July 12, 2018 to provide that, beginning on January 1, 2020, in calculating such loan to deposit ratio, retail loans and corporate loans are weighed differently, with retail loans subject to a multiple of 115% and corporate loans (excluding loans to SOHOs) subject to a multiple of 85%, thereby increasing the impact of retail loans and reducing the impact of corporate loans in calculating such ratio.
Financial Exposure to Any Single Customer and Major Shareholders
Under the Banking Act, the sum of material credit exposures by a bank, namely, the total sum of its credits to single individuals, legal entities or persons sharing credit risk with such individuals or legal entities such as companies belonging to the same enterprise groups as defined under the Monopoly RegulationRegulations and Fair Trade Act that exceed 10% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions), must not exceed five times the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions), subject to certain exceptions. Subject to certain exceptions, no bank is permitted to extend credit (including loans, guarantees, purchases of securities (only in the nature of a credit) and such other transactions which directly or indirectly create credit risk) in excess of 20% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) to an individual or a legal entity, and no bank may grant credit in excess of 25% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) to individuals, legal entities and companies that belong to the same enterprise group as defined in the Monopoly Regulations and Fair Trade Act.
Under the Banking Act, certain restrictions apply to extending credits to a major shareholder. The definition of a “major shareholder” is as follows:
a shareholder holding (together with persons who have a special relationship with such shareholder as defined in the Presidential Decree of the Banking Act) in excess of 10% (or in the case of regional banks, 15%) in the aggregate of the bank’s total issued and outstanding voting shares; or
a shareholder holding (together with persons who have a special relationship with such shareholder as defined in the Presidential Decree of the Banking Act) more than 4% in the aggregate of the total issued and outstanding voting shares of a bank (other than a regional bank), where such shareholder is the largest shareholder or is able to actually control the major business affairs of the bank, for example, through appointment and dismissal of the chief executive officer or of the majority of the executives.
Under the Banking Act, banks are prohibited from extending credits in the amount greater than the lesser of (1) 25% of the sum of such bank’s Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) and (2) the relevant
major shareholder’s shareholding ratio multiplied by the sum of the bank’s Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) to a major shareholder (together with persons who have special relationship with such major shareholder as defined in the Presidential Decree of the Banking Act). Also, no bank is allowed to grant credit to its major shareholders in the aggregate in excess of 25% of its Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions).
When managing the credit risk of banks, among the methods for providing credit support by banks, a loan agreement, a purchase agreement for asset-backed commercial papers, purchase of subordinate beneficiary certificates, and assumption of liability by providing warranty against default under asset-backed securitization are examples of creating financial exposure to banks.
Interest Rates
Korean banks remain dependent on the acceptance of deposits as their primary source of funds. Currently, there are no legal controls on interest rates on bank loans in Korea, except for the cap of 27.9%24.0% per annum on interest rates under the Act on Lending Business.
Lending to Small- andMedium-sized Enterprises
When commercial banks (including Shinhan Bank) makeWon-denominated loans to certain start-up,startup, venture, innovative and other strategic small- andmedium-sized enterprises specially designated by the Bank of Korea as “priority borrowers,” the Bank of Korea generally provides the underlying funding to these banks at concessionary rates for up to 50% of all such loans made to the priority borrowers subject to a monthly-adjusted limit prescribed by the Bank of Korea (currentlyW5.9 trillion)5.9trillion) provided that if such loans to priority borrowers made by all commercial banks exceed the prescribed limit for a given month, the concessionary funding for the following month will be allocated to each commercial bank in proportion to such bank’s lending to priority borrowers two months prior to the time of such allocation, which has the effect that, if a particular bank lags other banks in making loans to priority borrowers, the amount of funding such bank can receive from the Bank of Korea at concessionary rates will be proportionately reduced.
Disclosure of Management Performance
For the purpose of enforcing mandatory disclosure of management performance so that the general public, especially depositors and stockholders, will be in a better position to monitor banks, the Financial Services Commission requires commercial banks to disclose certain matters as follows:
| • | loans bearing no profit made to a single business group in an amount exceeding 10% of the sum of the bank’s Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) as of the end of the previous month (where the loan exposure to such borrower is calculated pursuant to the criteria under the Detailed Regulations promulgated under the Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business), except where the loan exposure to a single business group is not more than |
| • | any loss due to court judgments or similar decisions in civil proceedings in an amount exceeding 1% of the sum of the bank’s Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) as of the end of the previous month, except where the loss is not more than |
Restrictions on Lending
According to the Banking Act, commercial banks are prohibited from making any of the following categories of loans:
loans made directly or indirectly on the pledge of a bank’s own shares;
loans made directly or indirectly to enable a natural or a legal person to buy the bank’s own shares; and
| • | loans made to any of the bank’s officers or employees other than de minimis loans of up to (1) |
credit (including loans) secured by a pledge of shares of a subsidiary corporation of the bank or to enable a natural or juridical person to buy shares of a subsidiary corporation of the bank; and
| • | loans to any officers or employees of a subsidiary corporation of the bank, other than general loans of up to |
Recent Regulations Relating to Retail Household Loans
The Financial Services Commission implemented a number of changes in recent years to the mechanisms by which a bank evaluates and reportreports its retail household loan balances and has proposed implementing further changes. DueIn order to rationalize the regulations on the housing loans, the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service provided administrative instructions in July 2014 with effect from August 1, 2014, which have been extended and amended several times, that all financial institutions including banks under the Banking Act were subject to the maximumloan-to-value ratio of 70% (irrespective of the location of the property, subject to certain exceptions) and the maximumdebt-to-income ratio of 60% (only in respect of apartment units located in the greater Seoul metropolitan area, subject to certain exceptions). However, due to a rapid increase in the volume of loans secured by homes and other forms of housing, the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service implemented the following regulations designed to curtail extension of new or refinanced loans secured by housing includingby respectively amending the following:Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business and the Detailed Regulation on the Supervision of the Banking Business to replace the above administrative instructions in August 2017:
as to loans secured by collateral of housing (including apartments) located nationwide, theloan-to-value ratio (the aggregate principal amount of loans secured by such collateral over the appraised value of the collateral) shall not exceed 60%70%;
as to loans secured by collateral of housing located in “overheated speculative districts” or “speculative districts”, as designated by the government, theloan-to-value ratio for loans with a maturity of more than three years shallshould not exceed 60%40%;

as to loans secured by collateral of housing (limited to an apartment) located in the case of a borrower (i) whose spouse already has a loan secured by housing or (ii) who is single and under 30 years old,greater Seoul metropolitan area, the borrower’sdebt-to-income ratio (calculated as (i) the aggregate annual total payment amount of (x) the principal of and interest on loans secured by such apartment(s)housing and existing mortgage and home equity loans and (y) the interest on other debtsloans of the borrower over (ii) the borrower’s annual income) of the borrower in respect ofshall not exceed 60%;
as to loans secured by apartment(s)collateral of housing (limited to an apartment) located in areas of high speculation“adjustment targeted areas”, as designated by the government, the borrower’sdebt-to-income ratio shall not exceed 50%;
as to loans secured by collateral of housing located in “overheated speculative districts” or “speculative districts”, as designated by the government, the borrower’sdebt-to-income ratio shall not exceed 40%;
as to loans secured by collateral of housing to be extended to a low income household, the maximumdebt-to-income ratio is 10% higher than the applicabledebt-to-income ratios of 50% in “adjustment targeted areas” and 40% in “overheated speculative districts” or “speculative districts” described above;
as to loans secured by collateral of housing to be extended to a household which has already received one or more loans secured by collateral of housing, the maximumdebt-to-income ratio is 10% lower than the applicabledebt-to-income ratios of 50% in “adjustment targeted areas” and 40% in “overheated speculative districts” or “speculative districts” described above;
as to apartments located in areas of high speculation“speculative districts”, as designated by the government, a borrowerhousehold is permitted to have only one new loan secured by such apartment; and
where a borrowerhousehold has two or more loans secured by apartments located in areas of high speculation“speculative districts”, as designated by the government, the loan with the earliest maturity date in the event of the extension of maturity must be repaid first and the number of loans must be eventually reduced to one.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to rationalize the regulations on theAs housing loans, the Financial Supervisory Service provided administrative instructions in July 2014 that all financial institutions including banks under the Banking Act are subject to the maximum loan-to-value ratio of 70% (irrespective of the location of the property, subject to certain exceptions) and the maximum debt-to-income ratio of 60% (only in respect of apartment units locatedprices in the greater Seoul metropolitan area subjectcontinued to certain exceptions)rise despite the above measures, on December 16, 2019, the Government unveiled a tighter set of measures aimed at the housing market. According to these new measures, which became effective from December 17, 2019, no mortgage or home equity loans can be provided to purchase a new home located in any of the regulated areas to a household that already owns two or more housing units. For a household that already owns one housing unit, such loans can only be provided under very limited circumstances. Furthermore, the “speculative districts” and “overheated speculative districts” are further restricted by tighterloan-to-value ratios. If the market value of a home located in any of the “speculative districts” or “overheated speculative districts” being acquired is greater thanW1.5 billion, no mortgage or home equity loans may be provided. For homes located in any of the “speculative districts” or “overheated speculative districts” with a market value equal or less thanW1.5 billion but greater thanW900 million, the loans can only cover 40% of the market value up toW900 million and 20% of any remaining value betweenW1.5 billion andW900 million. In addition to the foregoing restrictions, no mortgage loan applicant buying a home in any of the “speculative districts” or “overheated speculative districts” may incur a loan that will exceed 40% of his/her debt service ratio for homes with market values exceedingW900 million. Furthermore, on February 20, 2020, the Government announced additional countermeasures to curb housing prices in the “adjustment targeted areas”, from August 1, 2014. The administrative instructions have been extended several timesunder which if the market value of a home located in any of the “adjustment targeted areas” being acquired is greater thanW900 million, the loans can only cover 50% of the market value up toW900 million and are effective until July 31, 2017.30% of any remaining value exceedingW900 million.
Restrictions on Investments in Property
A bank may possess real estate property only to the extent necessary for conducting its business; provided that the aggregate value of such real estate property must not exceed 60% of the sum of its Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions). Any property acquired by a bank (1) through the exercise of its rights as a secured party or (2) the acquisition of which is prohibited by the Banking Act must be disposed of within three years, unless otherwise provided by the regulations thereunder.
Restrictions on Shareholdings in Other Companies
Under the Banking Act, a bank may not own more than 15% of shares outstanding with voting rights of another company, except where, among other reasons:

the acquisition of shares by the bank is necessary for corporate restructuring of such company and is approved by the Financial Services Commission.
In the above cases, a bank must satisfy either of the following requirements:
the total investment in companies in which the bank owns more than 15% of the outstanding shares with voting rights does not exceed 20% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions); or
the total investment in companies in which the bank owns more than 15% of the outstanding shares with voting rights does not exceed 30% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions) where the acquisition satisfies the requirements determined by the Financial Services Commission.
The Banking Act provides that a bank using its bank accounts and its trust accounts is not permitted to acquire the shares issued by the Major Shareholder of such bank in excess of an amount equal to 1% of the sum of Tier I and Tier II capital (less any capital deductions).
Restrictions on Bank Ownership
Under the Banking Act, subject to certain exceptions, a single shareholder and persons who stand in a special relationship with such shareholder (as described in the Presidential Decree to the Banking Act) may acquire beneficial ownership of up to 10% of a national bank’s total issued and outstanding shares with voting rights and up to 15% of a regional bank’s total issued and outstanding shares with voting rights.

Deposit Insurance System
The Depositor Protection Act provides, through a deposit insurance system, insurance for certain deposits of banks in Korea. Under the Depositor Protection Act, all banks governed by the Banking Act, including Shinhan Bank and Jeju Bank, are required to pay to the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation an insurance premium on a quarterly basis at such rate as determined by the Presidential Decree to the Depositor Protection Act, which shall not exceed 0.5% of the bank’s insurable deposits in any given year. The current insurance premium is 0.02% of insurable deposits for each quarter.

Principal Regulations Applicable to Credit Card Companies
General
Any person, including a bank, wishing to engage in the credit card business must obtain a license from the Financial Services Commission. In addition, in order to enter the credit card business, a bank must obtain a license from the Financial Services Commission (hereinafter, a bank which obtains such license is defined as “licensed bank engaged in the credit card business”). The credit card business is regulated and governed by the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act. Under the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act and regulations thereunder, a company in the same conglomerate group (as defined in the Monopoly RegulationRegulations and Fair Trade Act) may engage in the credit card business even though another company in the same conglomerate group is already engaged in such business, which was previously not permitted.
The Specialized Credit Financial Business Act establishes guidelines on capital adequacy and provides for other regulations relating to the supervision of credit card companies. The Specialized Credit Financial Business Act delegates regulatory authority over credit card companies to the Financial Services Commission and its executive body, the Financial Supervisory Service.
A licensed bank engaging in the credit card business is regulated by the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service.
The Financial Services Commission regulates credit card companies and licensed banks engaged in the credit card business by establishing guidelines or regulations on management of such companies. Moreover if the Financial Services Commission deems the financial condition of a credit card company or a licensed bank
engaged in the credit card business to be unsound or such companies fail to satisfy the guidelines or regulations, the Financial Services Commission may take certain measures to improve the financial condition of such companies.
Restrictions on Scope of Business
Under the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act, a credit card company may conduct only the following types of business: (i) credit card business as licensed or other specialized credit finance businesses as registered pursuant to the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act; (ii) the businesses ancillary to the credit card business, (for example, providing cash advance loans to existing credit card holders, issuing and settling of debit cards and issuing, selling and settling ofpre-paid cards); (iii) provision of unsecured or secured loans; (iv) provision of discount on notes; (v) purchase, management and collection of account receivables originated by companies in the course of providing goods and services; (vi) provision of payment guarantee; (vii) asset management business under the Asset Backed Securitization Act; (viii) credit investigation; and (ix) other incidental businesses related to the foregoing. Under the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act, a credit card company’s scope of business includes “businesses that utilize existing manpower, assets or facilities in a credit card company, as designated by the Financial Services Commission.” Under the current regulation established by the Financial Services Commission, a credit card company may engage in various types of business including, but not limited to,e-commerce, operation of insurance agency, delegation of card issuance, supply of payment settlement system, loan brokerage and brokerage of collective investment securities.
A credit card company’s average balance of claim amounts arising from the advance of loans to credit card holders (excluding such claims arising from there-advance of loans to credit card holders following a change in the maturity or interest rate of such loans as part of a debt restructuring) as of the end of each quarter may not exceed the sum of the following amounts:
Average balance of claims during a quarter arising from the purchase of goods or services by credit card holders with credit cards; and
Amount of debit card usage during a quarter by debit card members.
Capital Adequacy
The Specialized Credit Financial Business Act provides for a minimumpaid-in capital amount of: (i) W20 billion in the case of a specialized credit financial business company which wishes to engage in no more than two kinds of core businesses (i.e. credit card, installment finance, leasing and new technology business) and (ii) W40 billion in the case of an specialized credit financial business company, which wishes to engage in three or more kinds of core businesses.

For these purposes, disclosure of a customer’s password that is made intentionally or through gross negligence, or the transfer of or giving as collateral of the credit card or debit card, is considered willful misconduct or gross negligence.
In addition, the Specialized Credit Financial Business Act prohibits a credit card company from transferring to merchants the risk of loss arising from lost, stolen, forged or altered credit cards, debit cards orpre-paid cards; provided, however, that a credit card company may enter into an agreement with a merchant under which the merchant agrees to be responsible for such loss if caused by the merchant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Investment Companies
General
The securities business is regulated and governed by the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. Financial investment companies are under the regulation and supervision of the Financial Services Commission, the Financial Supervisory Service and the Securities and Futures Commission.
Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, a financial investment company may engage in dealing, brokerage, collective investment, investment advice, discretionary investment management or trust businesses if it has obtained relevant licenses from the Financial Services Commission.
A financial investment company may also engage in certain businesses ancillary to the primary business or certain other additional businesses by submitting a report to the Financial Services Commission at least seven days prior to the commencement of the business without obtaining any separate license. Approval to merge with any other entity or to transfer all or substantially all of a business must also be obtained from the Financial Services Commission.
Under the Act on the Structural Improvement of the Financial Industry, if the Korean governmentGovernment deems a financial investment company’s financial condition to be unsound or if a financial investment company fails to meet the applicable Net Operating Equity Ratio (as defined below), the government may order certain sanctions, including among others, sanctions against a financial investment company or its officers or employees, capital increase or reduction and a suspension or assignment of a part or all of business operation.
Regulations on Financial Soundness — Capital Adequacy
The Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act sets forth various types of brokerage and/or dealing business licenses based on (i) the scope of products and services that may be provided by each type of the brokerage and/or dealing licensee and (ii) the type of customers to which such products and services may be provided. For example, a financial investment company engaged in the brokerage, dealing and underwriting businesses with retail investors as well as professional investors in connection with all types of securities is required to have a minimumpaid-in capital ofW53 billion in order to obtain a license for such brokerage, dealing and underwriting businesses.
Under the Financial Investment Service Regulations, as amended and effective as of December 12, 2014,January 31, 2019, the soundness requirement of financial investment companies changed from the previous net operating equity ratio requirement to a net equity ratio requirement. The net equity ratio is calculated according to the following formula:
Net Equity Ratio = (Net Operating Equity —– Total Risk) / Equity Capital Maintenance Requirement for Each Service Unit
The terms “Net Operating Equity” and “Total Risk” for the purpose of the above-stated formula are defined and elaborated in the regulations of the Financial Services Commission. Generally, the Net Operating Equity, the Total Risk and the Equity Capital Maintenance Requirement for Each Service Unit are to be calculated according to the following formula:
Net Operating Equity = Net assets (total assets —- total liabilities) —- the total of items that may be deducted + the total of items that may be added;
Total Risk = market risk + counterparty risk + management risk; and
Equity Capital Maintenance Requirement for Each Service Unit = Mandatory Equity Capital to be Required for Each Licensed Service Unit × 70%
The regulations of the Financial Services Commission requires,require, among other things, financial investment companies to maintain the net equity ratio at a level equal to or higher than 100% at the end of the each quarter of the fiscal year.
In addition, all Korean companies, including financial investment companies, are required to set aside, as a legal reserve, 10% of the cash portion of the annual dividend or interim dividend in each fiscal year until the reserve reaches 50% of the stated capital.
Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and regulations thereunder, the minimum ratio of allowances for losses on loans and suspense receivables specified under such regulations is 0.5% of normal assets, 2% of precautionary assets, 20% of substandard assets, 75% of doubtful assets and 100% of estimated loss assets.
Other Provisions on Financial Soundness
The Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, the Presidential Decree of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and the regulations of the Financial Services Commission also include certain provisions which are designed to regulate certain types of activities relating to the management of the assets of a securities company, subject to certain exceptions. Such provisions include:
restrictions on the holdings by a securities company of securities issued by another company which is the largest shareholder or the major shareholder (each as defined under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act) of such securities company; and
restrictions on providing money or credit to the largest shareholder (including specially-related persons of such shareholder), major shareholders, officers and specially-related persons of the securities company.
Principal Regulations Applicable to Insurance Companies
General
Insurance companies are regulated and governed by the Insurance Business Act (the “Insurance Business Act”). In addition, insurance companies in Korea are under the regulation and supervision of the Financial Services Commission and its governing entity, the Financial Supervisory Service.
Under the Insurance Business Act, approval to commence an insurance business must be obtained from the Financial Services Commission based on the type of insurance businesses, which are classified as life insurance business,non-life insurance business and third type insurance business. Life insurance business means an insurance business which deals with life insurance policies or pension insurance policies (including retirement insurance policies).Non-life insurance business means an insurance business which deals with fire insurance policies, marine insurance policies, car insurance policies, guaranty insurance policies, reinsurance policies, liability insurance policies or other insurance policies prescribed under the Presidential Decree of the Insurance Business Act. Third type insurance business means an insurance business which deals with injury insurance policies, health insurance policies or nursing care insurance policies. Under the Insurance Business Act, insurance companies are not allowed to engage in both a life insurance business and anon-life insurance business, subject to certain exceptions.
If the Korean governmentGovernment deems an insurance company’s financial condition to be unsound or if an insurance company fails to properly manage the business as set forth under relevant Korean law, the government may order certain sanctions including, among others, sanctions against an insurance company or its officers or employees, capital increase or reduction and a suspension or assignment of a part or all of business operation.
Capital Adequacy
The Insurance Business Act requires a minimumpaid-in capital ofW30 billion for an insurance company; provided, that, the insurance company which intends to engage in only certain types of insurance policies may have a lowerpaid-in capital pursuant to the Presidential Decree of the Insurance Business Act.
In addition to the minimum capital requirement, an insurance company is required to maintain a Solvency Margin Ratio of 100% or more. “Solvency Margin Ratio” is the ratio of the Solvency Margin to the Standard Amount of the Solvency Margin. Solvency Margin is the aggregate amount ofpaid-in capital, reserve for
dividends to policyholders, allowance for bad debt and subordinated debt amount and others similar thereto as set out in the regulation of the Financial Services Commission, lessnon-amortized acquisition costs, goodwill and others similar thereto as appearing in the regulation of the Financial Services Commission. The Standard Amount of Solvency Margin for life insurance companies is defined under the regulation of the Financial Services Commission and is required to comply with the risk based capital regime.
Under the Insurance Business Act, the Presidential Decree and other regulations thereunder, for each accounting period, insurance companies are required to appropriate policy reserve that is earmarked for future payments of insurance money, refund and dividends to policyholders (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Insurance Money”) for each insurance contract. However, if an insurance company has reinsured a portion of its insurance contracts with a creditworthy reinsurance company in order to lower its overall risk, in principle, the insurance company is not required to appropriate policy reserve for the reinsured contracts. Instead, the reinsurance company is required to appropriate such policy reserve for the reinsured contracts. However, if an insurance company transfers more than 50% of its risk to a reinsurance company, the amount of risk transferred in excess of 50% will be disalloweddisregarded for purposes of calculating the solvency margin ratio. In particular, if the ratio of the risks transferred to the reinsurance company to the total risks insured by an insurance company exceeds 50%, such insurance company will be required to have net assets in relation to such risks transferred in excess of the 50% threshold for purposes of the solvency margin requirement. The Insurance Business Act was amended on January 24, 2011 to classify the insurance products into two categories: (i) reportable insurance products and (ii) voluntary insurance products. Under this amendment, only the changes to the terms and conditions of the reportable insurance products require a prior report and approval from the Financial Supervisory Service and the voluntary insurance products can be sold without prior approval from the Financial Supervisory Service. The policy reserve needs to be appropriated in accordance with the policy reserve calculation method for each insurance product as stipulated in amended Insurance Business Act.
The policy reserve amount consists of the following: (i) premium reserves and prepaid insurance premiums which are calculated under the methods determined by the written calculation methods for insurance premiums and policy reserves by insurance types or by lapses of insurance period, with regard to the contracts for which the causes for payment of the Insurance Money have yet to occur as of the end of each accounting period; (ii) amounts for which a lawsuit is pending on the Insurance Money or amounts for which a payment has been fixed with regard to the contracts for which the causes for payment of Insurance Money have occurred as of the end of each accounting period, and amounts which have not been paid yet due to an unsettled amount for paying the Insurance Money, even if the causes for payment of the Insurance Money have already occurred; and (iii) amounts reserved by an insurance company for allocation to policyholders.
Pursuant to the regulations established by the Financial Services Commission, insurance companies are required to maintain allowances for outstanding loans, accounts receivables and other credits (including accrued income, payment on account, and bills receivables or dishonored) in an aggregate amount covering not less than
0.5% of normal credits, 2% of precautionary credits, 20% of substandard credits, 50% of doubtful credits and 100% of estimated loss credits, provided that the minimum ratio of allowances for certain type of outstanding loans by insurance companies to individuals and households (including, retail loans, housing loans, and other forms of retail loans extended to individuals not registered for business), is increased to 1% of normal credits, 10% of precautionary credits and 55% of doubtful credits. Furthermore, the regulations on insurance companies became more stringent in September 2010 by adding a requirement that insurance companies maintain allowance for bad debts in connection with real estate project financing loans in excess of 0.9% of normal credits and 7% of precautionary credits.
Variable Insurance and Bancassurance Agents
Variable insurance is regulated pursuant to the Insurance Business Act and the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. In order for an insurance company to sell variable insurance to a policyholder
and operate such variable insurance, the insurance company must obtain a license with respect to collective investment business from the Financial Services Commission and register as a selling company with the Financial Services Commission. In this case, according to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, an insurance company will be regulated as an investment trust and assets acquired in connection with variable insurance must be held by a trust company that is registered with the Financial Services Commission pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act.
According to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, insurance companies may operate variable insurance through (i) mandating all of the management and the management instruction business to another asset management company, (ii) operating by way of discretionary investment all of the assets constituting the investment advisory assets out of the investment trust assets, or (iii) operating all of the investment trust assets into other collective investment securities, thereby allowing all of the particular variable insurance assets to be outsourced.
The Insurance Business Act permits banks, securities companies, credit card companies and other financial institutions to register as insurance agents or insurance brokers and engage in the insurance business (the “Bancassurance Agents”), who are currently permitted to sell all types of life andnon-life insurance products, except for protection type insurance products, such as whole life insurance, critical illness insurance and automobile insurance.
Restrictions on Investment of Assets
According to the Insurance Business Act, insurance companies are prohibited from making any of the following investment of assets:
owning any real estate (excluding any real estate owned as a result of enforcing their own security interest) other than real estate for conducting its business as designated by the Presidential Decree. In any case, the total amount of real estate owned by an insurance company must not exceed 15%25% of its Total Assets, provided that investment in real estate for a separate account is limited to 15% of the assets of such separate account;
loans made for the purpose of speculation in commodities or securities;
loans made directly or indirectly to enable a natural or legal person to buy their own shares;
loans made directly or indirectly to finance political campaigns and other similar activities; and

with respect to the sum of margins for a futures exchange designated by the Presidential Decree or a foreign futures exchange, and commitment amounts ofover-the-counter derivatives must not exceed 6% of its Total Assets, provided that theover-the-counter derivative trades are limited to 3%. The derivatives trades of a separate account are limited to 6% of the assets of separate account, provided that theover-the-counter derivatives trades are limited to 3%.
Regulations on Class Actions Regarding Securities
The Law on Class Actions Regarding Securities was enacted as of January 20, 2004 and last amended on May 28, 2013. The Law on Class Actions Regarding Securities governs class actions suits instituted by one or more representative plaintiff(s) on behalf of 50 or more persons who claim to have been damaged in a capital markets transaction involving securities issued by a listed company in Korea.
Applicable causes of action with respect to such suits include:
claims for damages caused by misleading information contained in a securities statement;
claims for damages caused by the filing of a misleading business report, semi-annual report, or quarterly report;
claims for damages caused by insider trading or market manipulation; and
claims instituted against auditors for damages caused by accounting irregularities.
Any such class action may be instituted upon approval from the presiding court and the outcome of such class action will have a binding effect on all potential plaintiffs who have not joined the action, with the exception of those who have filed an opt out notice with such court.
U.S. Regulations
As a substantial majority of our and our subsidiaries’, operations are in Korea, we are primarily subject to the regulations and supervision of the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service. Our subsidiaries, however, have limited operations in the United States, and we own a bank in the United States. Therefore, we and our U.S. operations are subject to U.S. supervision, regulation and enforcement by relevant authorities in the United States with regard to our U.S. operations.
U.S. Banking Regulations
Our operations in the United States are subject to a variety of regulatory regimes. Shinhan Bank maintains an uninsured branch in New York, which is licensed by the New York State Department of Financial Services (“Department”(the “Department”) and registered with the banking authority of Korea. ShinhanKorea.Shinhan Bank’s New York branch is subject to regulation and examination by the Department under its licensing authority. In addition, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”) exercises examination and regulatory authority over Shinhan Bank’s U.S. branch. We also own anon-member state chartered bank, Shinhan Bank America, which is regulated by the Department, as its chartering authority, and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), as its primary federal banking regulator and as the insurer of its deposits. Our U.S. branch and U.S. bank subsidiary are subject to restrictions on their respective activities, as well as prudential restrictions, such as limits on extensions of credit to a single borrower, and restrictions on transactions with affiliates, among other things. We are also a financial holding company and a bank holding company under U.S. banking laws and our U.S. operations are subject to regulation, supervision and enforcement by the Federal Reserve Board.
Shinhan Bank’s U.S. Branch
The Department, as the licensing authority of Shinhan Bank’s U.S. branch, has the authority, in certain circumstances, to take possession of the business and property of Shinhan Bank located in New York. Such circumstances generally include violations of law, unsafe business practices and insolvency. If the Department exercised this authority over the New York branch of Shinhan Bank, all assets of Shinhan Bank located in New York would generally be applied first to satisfy creditors of the New York branch. Any remaining assets would be applied to satisfy creditors of other U.S. offices of Shinhan Bank, after which any residual assets of the New York branch would be returned to the principal office of Shinhan Bank, and made available for application pursuant to any Korean insolvency proceeding.
Financial Holding Company
In addition to the direct regulation of Shinhan Bank’s U.S. branch by the Department and the Federal Reserve Board, because we operate a U.S. branch and have a subsidiary bank in the U.S., our nonbanking activities in the United States are subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board pursuant to the International Banking Act of 1978, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (the “BHC Act”), and other laws. We have elected to be a “financial holding company” under the BHC Act. Financial holding companies may engage in a broader spectrum of activities than bank holding companies or foreign banking organizations that are not financial holding companies, including underwriting and dealing in securities. To maintain our financial holding company status, (i) we and our U.S. subsidiary bank located in New York are required to be “well capitalized” and “well managed,” (ii) our U.S. branch and our U.S. subsidiary bank located in New York areis required to meet certain examination ratings, and (iii) our subsidiary bank in New York is required to maintain a rating of at least “satisfactory” under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (the “CRA”).
A major focus of U.S. governmental policy relating to financial institutions in recent years has been aimed at fighting money laundering and terrorist financing. Regulations applicable to us and our subsidiaries impose obligations to maintain effective policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to verify the identities of clients. Failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could have serious consequences for the firm, both in legal terms and in terms of our reputation.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which was enacted on July 21, 2010 in response to the financial crisis, impacts the financial services industry by addressing, among other issues, systemic risk oversight, bank capital standards, the liquidation of failing systemically important institutions, OTCover-the-counter and cleared derivatives, the ability of banking entities, includingnon-U.S. banks with branches in the U.S., like us, to engage in proprietary trading activities and invest in hedge funds and private equity (theso-called Volcker rule), consumer and investor protection, hedge fund registration, securitization, investment advisors, shareholder “say on pay,” the role of credit-rating agencies, and more. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal banking and financial regulatory authorities to adopt a broad range of implementing rules and regulations. Such authorities have significant discretion in drafting the implementing rules and regulations.
The Dodd-Frank Act provides regulators with tools to impose greater capital, leverage and liquidity requirements and other prudential standards, particularly for financial institutions that pose significant systemic risk and bank holding companies with greater than $50 billion in assets.risk. Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, the Federal Reserve Board has implemented rules that establish enhanced prudential standards for the U.S. operations of foreign banking organizations (“FBOs”) such as us. In imposing such heightened prudential standards onnon-U.S. banks such as us, the Federal Reserve Board is directed to take into account the principle of national treatment and equality of competitive opportunity, and the extent to which the foreign bank holding company is subject to comparable home country standards.
On May 24, 2018, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (the “Reform Act”) was signed into law. Among other regulatory changes, the Reform Act amends various sections of the
Dodd-Frank Act, including by raising the asset threshold for automatic application of enhanced prudential standards to FBOs under the Dodd-Frank Act from $50 billion in total global consolidated assets to $250 billion. The bill exempted FBOs with total global consolidated assets of less than $100 billion from these enhanced prudential standards effective immediately upon enactment of the bill. In February 2014,October 2019, the Federal Reserve Board issued a final rules applyingrule to implement the Reform Act’s changes to the application of enhanced prudential standards with respect to foreign banking organizations, orU.S. bank holding companies and FBOs like us(the “EPS Tailoring Rule”). The EPS Tailoring Rule delineates three categories of enhanced prudential standards (“EPS categories”) applicable to FBOs based on an FBO’s asset size and other factors such as the degree of the cross-jurisdictional activity, reliance on short-term wholesale funding, nonbank assets, andoff-balance sheet exposures of an FBO’s U.S. operations. The EPS Tailoring Rule generally determines the stringency of enhanced prudential standards applicable to FBOs based on the risk profile of the FBO’s U.S. operations, rather than its global footprint, with $50most enhanced prudential standards applying only to FBOs with combined U.S. assets of at least $100 billion. FBOs with global assets of $100 billion or more in total global consolidated assets. The final rules represent significant changesand a relatively limited U.S. presence, such as us, are subject to certain minimum standards under the way that the U.S. operations of FBOs are supervised byEPS Tailoring Rule, with the Federal Reserve Board within the United States.relying primarily on compliance with comparable home-country prudential standards with respect to such FBOs.
If our size or risk profile were to increase, our combined U.S. operations may be subject to certain further enhanced prudential standards. In particular, the final rules:
The final rules also include requirements relating to overall risk management and debt-to-equity limits for the U.S. operations of FBOs. Implementation ofan FBO whether or not the final rules began June 1, 2014 with the most significant requirements having taken effect on July 1, 2016.FBO is required to establish a U.S. IHC. Rules imposing single counterparty credit limits and early remediation requirements on FBOs have yet to be finalized. We continue to assess the full impact of these enhanced prudential requirements and the EPS Tailoring Rule on our business.
The current regulatory environmentIn addition, as an FBO with more than $100 billion in total consolidated assets, we are currently required to submit annually to the Federal Reserve Board and FDIC a resolution plan for the orderly resolution of our U.S. operations under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or other applicable insolvency laws in a rapid and orderly fashion in the United States may be impacted byevent of future legislative developments, such as amendments to key provisions ofmaterial financial distress or failure. If the Dodd-Frank Act. On January 20, 2017, Mr. Donald J. Trump became President ofFederal Reserve Board and the United States. The full scope of President Trump’s short-term legislative agendaFDIC jointly determine that the resolution plan is not yet fully known, but itcredible and the deficiencies are not cured in a timely manner, they may includejointly impose more stringent capital, leverage or liquidity requirements or restrictions on our growth, activities or operations. If we were to fail to address the deficiencies in the resolution plan when required, we could eventually be required to divest certain deregulatory measuresassets or operations.
In October 2019, the Federal Reserve Board and FDIC issued a final rule addressing the applicability of resolution planning requirements for the U.S. financial services industry, including changesFBOs (the “FBO Resolution Plan Rule”). The FBO Resolution Plan Rule applies reduced resolution plan filing requirements to key aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act. On February 3, 2017, President Trump signed an executive order calling for a review of U.S. financial lawsFBOs that have $250 billion or more in total global consolidated assets and regulations in order to determine their consistency with a set of core principlesthat do not otherwise meet certain category thresholds identified in the order.EPS Tailoring Rule, such as us, requiring such FBOs to submit a reduced content resolution plan every three years.
In July 2019, U.S. federal regulatory agencies adopted amendments to the Volcker Rule regulations to implement the Volcker Rule amendments included in the Reform Act, and also in 2019 such U.S. federal regulatory agencies adopted certain targeted amendments to the Volcker Rule regulations to simplify and tailor certain compliance requirements relating to the Volcker Rule. In January 2020, U.S. federal regulatory agencies proposed additional revisions to the Volcker Rule’s current restrictions on banking entities sponsoring and investing in certain covered hedge funds and private equity funds, including by proposing new exemptions allowing banking entities to sponsor and invest without limit in credit funds, venture capital funds, customer facilitation funds and family wealth management vehicles. The proposal would also loosen certain other restrictions on extraterritorial fund activities and direct parallel orco-investments made alongside covered funds.
If adopted, the proposal would expand the ability of banking entities to invest in and sponsor private funds. However, the proposed revisions have not yet been adopted and are subject to change. The ultimate consequences of these regulatory developments on our activities remain uncertain.
Shinhan Bank America
Shinhan Bank America, a state chartered bank that is located in New York and is not a member of the Federal Reserve Board, is subject to extensive regulation and examination by the Department, as its chartering authority, and by the FDIC, as the insurer of its deposits and as its primary federal banking regulator. The federal and state laws and regulations which are applicable to banks regulate, among other things, the activities in which they may engage and the locations at which they may engage in them, their investments, their reserves against deposits, the timing of the availability of deposited funds and transactions with affiliates, among other things. Shinhan Bank America must file reports with the Department and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition, in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain transactions, such as establishing branches and mergers with, or acquisitions of, other depository institutions. The Department and the FDIC periodically examine the bank to test Shinhan Bank America’s safety and soundness and its compliance with various regulatory requirements. This comprehensive regulatory and supervisory framework restricts the activities in which a bank can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC insurance fund and the bank’s depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves. Any change in such regulations, whether by the Department, the FDIC or as a result of the enactment of legislation, could have a material adverse impact on Shinhan Bank America and its operations.
Capital Requirements. The FDIC imposes capital adequacy standards on state-chartered banks like Shinhan Bank America. In order to be considered “adequately capitalized,” the FDIC’s current capital regulations require a minimum 3.0% Tier I leverage capital requirement for the most highly-rated state-chartered, non-member banks, with an additional cushion of at least 100 basis points required for all other state-chartered, non-member banks, which effectively will increase the minimum Tier I leverage ratio for such other banks to 4.0%. Under the FDIC’s regulation, the highest-rated banks are those that the FDIC determines are not anticipating or experiencing significant growth and have well diversified risk, including no undue interest rate risk exposure, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings and, in general, which are considered a strong banking organization and are rated composite 1 under the Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System. Tier I or core capital is defined as the sum of common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, and minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, minus all intangible assets other than certain qualifying supervisory goodwill and certain mortgage servicing rights.
The FDIC also requires that banks meet a risk-based capital standard. The current risk-based capital standard for banks requires, in order to be “adequately capitalized,” the maintenance of a ratio of total capital (which is defined as Tier I capital and supplementary capital) to risk-weighted assets of 8.0% and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets of 4%. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, plus certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight of 0% to 100%, based on the risks the FDIC believes are inherent in the type of asset or item. The components of Tier I capital are the same as for the leverage capital standard. The components of supplementary capital include certain perpetual preferred stock, certain mandatory convertible securities, certain subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock and general allowances for loan and lease losses. Allowance for loan and lease losses includable in supplementary capital is limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Overall, the amount of capital counted toward supplementary capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.
In order for our U.S. bank subsidiary to be classified as “well capitalized,” which is necessary in order for us to maintain our financial holding company status, it must have a Tier I leverage ratio of at least 5%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of at least 6% and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%. Furthermore, banks are generally encouraged to maintain even higher levels of capital during the current period of economic difficulty. In addition, the “prompt corrective action” framework under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”), provides, among other things, for expanded regulation of insured depository institutions, including banks, and their parent holding companies. As required by FDICIA, the federal banking agencies have established five capital tiers ranging from “well capitalized” to “critically undercapitalized” for insured depository institutions. OurIn order for our U.S. bank subsidiary to be classified as “well capitalized,” which is necessary in order for us to maintain our financial holding company status, it must maintain a minimum 5% Tier I leverage ratio, a 6.5% common equity Tier I capital ratio, a 8% Tier I risk-based capital ratio and a 10% total risk-based capital ratioratio.
In order for Shinhan Bank America to meet the definition of “wellbe classified as “adequately capitalized” under FDICIA’s prompt corrective action requirements.standards, which is necessary in order for Shinhan Bank America to avoid certain restrictions under FDICIA, it must maintain a minimum 4% Tier I leverage ratio, a 4.5% common equity Tier I capital ratio, a 6% Tier I risk-based capital ratio and a 8% total risk-based capital ratio.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, Shinhan Bank America exceeded all of the capital ratio standards for a well capitalizedwell-capitalized bank with a Tier I leverage ratio of 12.69%13.28%, a common equity Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 17.23%17.61%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 17.23%17.61% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 18.02%18.33%.
The current FDIC capital adequacy guidelines have been modified in accordance with “Basel III.” In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency issued final rules (the “Final Rules”) that substantially revise the federal banking agencies’ current capital rules and implement Basel III. The Final Rules, among other things, narrow the definition of capital, and increase capital requirements for specific exposures. They also include higher capital ratio requirements. In addition, consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act, they remove references to, or requirements of reliance on, credit ratings in the capital rules and replace them with alternative standards of creditworthiness. Shinhan Bank America’s current capital ratios satisfy the requirements set forth in the Final Rules.
Activities and Investments of New York-Chartered Banks. Shinhan Bank America derives its lending, investment and other authority primarily from the applicable provisions of New York State Banking Law and the regulations of the Department, as well as FDIC regulations and other federal laws and regulations. See “—“– Activities and Investments of FDIC-Insured State-Chartered Banks” below. These New York laws and regulations authorize Shinhan Bank America to invest in real estate mortgages, consumer and commercial loans, certain types of debt securities, including certain corporate debt securities and obligations of federal, State and local governments and agencies, and certain other assets. A bank’s aggregate lending powers are not subject to percentage of asset limitations, but, as discussed below, there are limits on the amount of credit exposure that a
bank may have to a single borrower or group of related borrowers. A New York-chartered bank may also exercise trust powers upon approval of the Department. Shinhan Bank America does not have trust powers.
With certain limited exceptions, Shinhan Bank America may not make loans or extend credit for commercial, corporate or business purposes (including lease financing) to a single borrower, the aggregate amount of which would be in excess of 15% of Shinhan Bank America’s net worth, on an unsecured basis, and
25% of the net worth if the excess is collateralized by readily marketable collateral or collateral otherwise having a value equal to the amount by which the loan exceeds 15% of Shinhan Bank America’s net worth. In calculating the amount of outstanding loans or credit to a particular borrower for this purpose, Shinhan Bank America must include its credit exposure arising from derivative transactions with the borrower.
Activities and Investments of FDIC-Insured State-Chartered Banks. The activities and equity investments of FDIC-insured, state-chartered banks are generally limited to those that are permissible for national banks. Under regulations dealing with equity investments, an insured state bank generally may not directly or indirectly acquire or retain any equity investment of a type, or in an amount, that is not permissible for a national bank. An insured state bank may, among other things, (i) acquire or retain a majority interest in a subsidiary that is engaged in activities that are permissible for the bank itself to engage in, (ii) invest as a limited partner in a partnership the sole purpose of which is direct or indirect investment in the acquisition, rehabilitation or new construction of a qualified housing project, provided that such limited partnership investments may not exceed 2% of the bank’s total assets, and (iii) acquire up to 10% of the voting stock of a company that solely provides or reinsures directors’, trustees’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or bankers’ blanket bond group insurance coverage for insured depository institutions. In addition, an FDIC-insured state-chartered bank may not directly, or indirectly through a subsidiary, engage as “principal” in any activity that is not permissible for a national bank unless the FDIC has determined that such activities would pose no risk to the insurance fund of which it is a member and the bank is in compliance with applicable regulatory capital requirements.
Regulatory Enforcement Authority. Applicable banking laws include substantial enforcement powers available to federal banking regulators. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issuecease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions against banking organizations and institution-affiliated parties, as defined. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with regulatory authorities. On June 12, 2017, Shinhan Bank America entered into a consent order with the FDIC with respect to certain weaknesses relating to its anti-money laundering compliance program. Shinhan Bank America has taken corrective measures and provides periodic reports to the FDIC with regard to such matters.
Under the New York State Banking Law, the Department may issue an order to a New York-chartered banking institution to appear and explain an apparent violation of law, to discontinue unauthorized or unsafe practices and to keep prescribed books and accounts. Upon a finding by the Department that any director, trustee or officer of any banking organization has violated any law, or has continued unauthorized or unsafe practices in conducting the business of the banking organization after having been notified by the Department to discontinue such practices, such director, trustee or officer may be removed from office by the Department after notice and an opportunity to be heard. The Department also may take possession of a banking organization under specified statutory criteria.
Prompt Corrective Action. Section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDIA”) provides the federal banking regulators with broad power to take “prompt corrective action” to resolve the problems of undercapitalized institutions. The extent of the regulators’ powers depends on whether the institution in question is “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized.” A bank is deemed to be (i) “well capitalized” if it has total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or greater, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or greater, has a common equity Tier I capital ratio of 6.5% or greater, has a Tier I leverage capital ratio of 5.0% or greater, and is not subject to specified requirements to
meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure, (ii) “adequately capitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or greater, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% or greater, has a common equity Tier I capital ratio of 4.5% or greater, has a Tier I leverage capital ratio of 4.0% or greater and does not meet the definition of “well capitalized,” (iii) “undercapitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, has a common equity Tier I capital ratio of less than 4.5%, or has a Tier I leverage capital ratio that is less than 4.0%, (iv) “significantly undercapitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is less than 4.0%, has a common equity Tier I capital ratio that is less than 3.0%, or has or a Tier I leverage capital ratio that
is less than 3.0%, and (v) “critically undercapitalized” if it has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%. The regulations also provide that a federal banking regulator may, after notice and an opportunity for a hearing, reclassify a “well capitalized” institution as “adequately capitalized” and may require an “adequately capitalized” institution or an “undercapitalized” institution to comply with supervisory actions as if it were in the next lower category if the institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition or engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice. The federal banking regulator may not, however, reclassify a “significantly undercapitalized” institution as “critically undercapitalized.”
An institution generally must file a written capital restoration plan which meets specified requirements, as well as a performance guaranty by each company that controls the institution, with an appropriate federal banking regulator within 45 days of the date that the institution receives notice or is deemed to have notice that it is “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized.” Immediately upon becoming undercapitalized, an institution becomes subject to statutory provisions, which, among other things, set forth various mandatory and discretionary restrictions on the operations of such an institution.
FDIC Insurance. Shinhan Bank America’s deposits are insured by the FDIC. As insurer, the FDIC is authorized to conduct examinations of, and to require reporting by, FDIC-insured institutions. It also may prohibit any FDIC-insured institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious threat to the FDIC.
InDuring the past several years,2008-2009 financial crisis, there have beenwere many failures and near-failures among financial institutions. The FDIC insurance fund reserve ratio, representing the ratio of the fund to the level of insured deposits, declined due to losses caused by bank failures and the FDIC then increased its deposit insurance premiums on remaining institutions in order to replenish the insurance fund. The FDIC insurance fund balance increased throughout 2010 and turned positive in 2011. The Dodd-Frank Act requires the FDIC to increase the ratio of the FDIC insurance fund to estimated total insured deposits (“Reserve Ratio”) to 1.35% by September 30, 2020. If bank failures in the future are more costly than the FDIC currently anticipates, then the FDIC willmay be required to continue to impose higher insurance premiums. Such anAny such increase would increase ournon-interest expense. Thus, despite the prudent steps Shinhan Bank America may take to avoid the mistakes made by other banks, its costs of operations may increase as a result of those mistakes by others.
As required by the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC revised its deposit insurance premium assessment rates in 2011. In general,2016, the rates are appliedFDIC adopted a rule in accordance with provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act that requires large institutions to a bank’s total assets less tangible capital,bear the burden of raising the Reserve Ratio from 1.15% to 1.35% through assessment surcharges for such large institutions. The Reserve Ratio exceeded 1.35% in contrast to the former rule which applied the assessment rate to a bank’s amount of deposits. The FDIC believes that while the largest banks will face higher assessments under the new system than they would under the former system, most banks, including Shinhan Bank America, will pay a lower total assessment under the new system than they would have paid under the former system.September 2018.
As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act, the increase in the standard FDIC insurance limit from $100,000US$100,000 to $250,000US$250,000 was made permanent. As theThe Dodd-Frank Act also removed the prohibition on banks paying interest on commercial demand deposits, commercial depositors currently must choose between earning interest on their demand deposits or having the benefit of unlimited deposit insurance coverage.deposits.
The FDIC may terminate the deposit insurance of any insured depository institution, including Shinhan Bank America, if it determines, after a hearing, that the institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed by an agreement with the FDIC. It also may suspend deposit
insurance temporarily during the hearing process for the permanent termination of insurance, if the institution has no tangible capital. If insurance of accounts is terminated, the accounts at the institution at the time of the termination, less subsequent withdrawals, shall continue to be insured for a period of six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. Management is aware of no existing circumstances that would result in termination of Shinhan Bank America’s deposit insurance.
Brokered Deposits. Under federal law and applicable regulations, (i) a well capitalized bank may solicit and accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit without restriction, (ii) an adequately capitalized bank may not accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit unless it has applied for and been granted a waiver of this prohibition by the FDIC and (iii) an undercapitalized bank may not (x) accept, renew or roll over any brokered deposit or (y) solicit deposits by offering an effective yield that exceeds by more than 75 basis points the prevailing effective yields on insured deposits of comparable maturity in such institution’s normal market area or in the market area in which such deposits are being solicited. The term “undercapitalized insured depository institution” is defined to mean any insured depository institution that fails to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirement prescribed by its appropriate federal banking agency. The FDIC may, on acase-by-case basis and upon application by an adequately capitalized insured depository institution, waive the restriction on brokered deposits upon a finding that the acceptance of brokered deposits does not constitute an unsafe or unsound practice with respect to such institution. In August 2019 and December 2019, the FDIC issued proposed rules on aspects of FDIC’s brokered deposit and interest rate regulations. The outcome of these proposed rules on the FDIC’s regulations in the future is uncertain. Shinhan Bank America had an aggregate amount of $76.9US$35.6 million of brokered deposits outstanding atas of December 31, 2016.2019.
Community Reinvestment and Consumer Protection Laws. In connection with its lending activities, Shinhan Bank America is subject to a variety of federal laws designed to protect borrowers and promote lending to various sectors of the economy and population. Included among these are the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act,Truth-in-Lending Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act and CRA.
The CRA requires FDIC insured banks to define the assessment areas that they serve, identify the credit needs of those assessment areas and take actions that respond to the credit needs of the community. The FDIC must conduct regular CRA examinations of Shinhan Bank America and assign it a CRA rating of “outstanding,” “satisfactory,” “needs improvement” or “unsatisfactory.” Shinhan Bank America is also subject to provisions of the New York State Banking Law which impose similar obligations to serve the credit needs of its assessment areas. The Department and the FDIC each periodically assess a bank’s compliance, and makes the assessment available to the public. Federal and New York State laws both require consideration of these ratings when reviewing a bank’s application to engage in certain transactions, including mergers, asset purchases and the establishment of branch offices. A negative assessment may serve as a basis for the denial of any such application. Shinhan Bank America has received “satisfactory” ratings from both the Department and the FDIC.FDIC in its most recent CRA performance evaluation.
In December 2019, the FDIC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) proposed comprehensive amendments to the CRA, which would significantly affect the manner in which banks seek to satisfy their CRA obligations (including by modifying incentives for banks to lend to, invest in, and provide services to their communities generally, and inlow- and moderate-income (“LMI”) areas, in particular) and modify the CRA examination process for all but the smallest banks by moving from the current subjective rating system to a “metric-based” rating system. It remains unclear whether the FDIC, OCC or other regulatory agencies will adopt final rules amending the CRA and, if such rules were to be adopted, we cannot predict at this time the extent to which the scope of such final rules would resemble the CRA amendments proposed in December 2019. It also remains unclear whether any other particular legislative or regulatory proposals will be enacted or adopted concerning CRA requirements applicable to us. To the extent any such final amendments to CRA requirements applicable to us are adopted, such regulatory developments may impact the ability of Shinhan Bank America to achieves “satisfactory” CRA performance ratings.
The Dodd-Frank Act created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“Bureau”(the “Bureau”) with broad authority to regulate and enforce consumer protection laws. The Bureau has the authority to adopt regulations under numerous existing federal consumer protection statutes. The Bureau may also decide that a particular consumer financial product or service, or the manner in which it is offered, is an unfair, deceptive, or abusive act or practice. If the Bureau so decides, it has the authority to outlaw such act or practice. The FDIC enforces the regulations of the Bureau with regard to Shinhan Bank America.
Limitations on Dividends. The payment of dividends by Shinhan Bank America is subject to various regulatory requirements. Under New York State Banking Law, a New York-chartered stock bank may declare and pay dividends out of its net profits, unless there is an impairment of capital, but approval of the Superintendent of Banks is required if the total of all dividends declared in a calendar year would exceed the total of its net profits for that year combined with its retained net profits of the preceding two years, subject to certain adjustments.
Assessments. Banking institutions are required to pay assessments to both the FDIC and the Department to fund the operations of those agencies. The assessments are based upon the amount of Shinhan Bank America’s total assets. Shinhan Bank America must also pay an examination fee to the Department when it conducts an examination.
Transactions with Related Parties. Shinhan Bank America’s authority to engage in transactions with related parties or “affiliates” (i.e., any entity that controls or is under common control with an institution) or to make loans to certain insiders is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. Section 23A limits the
aggregate amount of transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the institution and also limits the aggregate amount of transactions with all affiliates to 20% of the institution’s capital and surplus. The term “affiliate” includes, for this purpose, us and any company that we control other than Shinhan Bank America and its subsidiaries.
Loans to affiliates must be secured by collateral with a value that depends on the nature of the collateral. The purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Loans and asset purchases with affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies. In the absence of comparable transactions, such transactions may only occur under terms and circumstances, including credit standards that in good faith would be offered to or would apply to nonaffiliated companies. Shinhan Bank America’s authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders, as well as entities controlled by such persons, is currently governed by Regulation O of the Federal Reserve Board. Regulation O generally requires such loans to be made on terms substantially similar to those offered to unaffiliated individuals (except for preferential loans made in accordance with broad based employee benefit plans), places limits on the amount of loans Shinhan Bank America may make to such persons based, in part, on Shinhan Bank America’s capital position, and requires certain approval procedures to be followed.
Standards for Safety and Soundness. FDIC regulations require that Shinhan Bank America adopt procedures and systems designed to foster safe and sound operations in the areas of internal controls, information systems, internal and audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth, asset quality, earnings and compensation, fees and benefits. Among other things, these regulations prohibit compensation and benefits and arrangements that are excessive or that could lead to a material financial loss. If Shinhan Bank America fails to meet any of these standards, it will be required to submit to the FDIC a plan specifying the steps that will be taken to cure the deficiency. If it fails to submit an acceptable plan or fails to implement the plan, the FDIC will require it to correct the deficiency and until corrected, may impose restrictions on it.
The FDIC has also adopted regulations that require Shinhan Bank America to adopt written loan policies and procedures that are consistent with safe and sound operation, are appropriate for its size, and must be reviewed by its board of directors annually. Shinhan Bank America has adopted such policies and procedures, the material provisions of which are discussed above as part of the discussion of our lending operations.
U.S. Regulation of Other U.S. Operations
In the United States, Shinhan Investment America Inc., our U.S.-registered broker-dealer subsidiary, is subject to regulations that cover all aspects of the securities business, including, sales methods, trade practices among broker-dealers, use and safekeeping of clients’ funds and securities, capital structure; record-keeping, the financing of clients’ purchases, and the conduct of directors, officers and employees.
Shinhan Investment America Inc. is regulated by a number of different government agencies and self-regulatory organizations, including the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). Our U.S. subsidiaries are also regulated by some or all of the NYSE, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve Board and the Commodities Futures Trading Commission. In addition, the U.S. states, provinces and territories have local securities commissions that regulate and monitor activities in the interest of investor protection. These regulators have a variety of sanctions available, including the authority to conduct administrative proceedings that can result in censure, fines, the issuance ofcease-and-desist orders or the suspension or expulsion of the broker-dealer or its directors, officers or employees.
FINRA is dedicated to investor protection and market integrity through effective and efficient regulation and complementary compliance and technology-based services. FINRA covers a broad spectrum of securities businesses, including, registering and educating industry participants, examining securities firms, writing rules,
enforcing those rules and the federal securities laws, informing and educating the investing public, providing trade reporting and other industry utilities, and administering a dispute resolution forum for investors and registered firms. It also performs market regulation under contract for the NASDAQ Stock Market, the American Stock Exchange and the Chicago Climate Exchange.
Many of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act discussed above will affect the operation of Shinhan Investment America, as well as our U.S. banking operations. Again, the impact of this statute on our operations will depend on the final regulations ultimately adopted by various agencies and oversight boards in coming years.

| ITEM 5. | OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS |
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this annual report. The following discussion is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.
| ITEM 5.A. | Operating Results |
Overview
We are one of the leading financial institutions in Korea in terms of total assets, revenues, profitability and capital adequacy, among others. Incorporated on September 1, 2001, we are the first privately-held financial holding company to be established in Korea. Since inception, we have developed and introduced a wide range of financial products and services in Korea and aimed to deliver comprehensive financial solutions to clients through a convenientone-portal network. According to reports by the Financial Supervisory Service, we are the second largest financial services provider in Korea (as measured by consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2016)2019) and operate the fourthsecond largest banking business (as measured by consolidated total bank assets as of December 31, 2016)2019) and the largest credit card business (as measured by the total credit purchase volume in 2016)2019) in Korea.
Most of our assets are located in, and we generate most of our income from, Korea. Accordingly, our business and profitability are largely dependent on the general economic and social conditions in Korea, including interest rates, inflation, exports, personal expenditures and consumption, unemployment, demand for business products and services, debt service burden of households and businesses, the general availability of credit, the asset value of real estate and securities and other factors affecting the financial well-being of our corporate and retail customers. The Korean economy is closely integrated with, and is significantly affected by, developments in the global economy and financial markets. In recent years, the global economy and financial markets experienced adverse conditions and volatility, which also had an adverse impact on the Korean economy and in turn on our business and profitability. See “Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our BankingOur Overall Business — Difficult conditions and turbulence in the Korean and global economy and financial markets may adversely affect our business, asset quality, capital adequacy and earnings.”
We derive most of our income from interest earned on our corporate and retail loans, net of funding costs (which primarily consist of interest payable on customer deposits). Net interest income is largely a function of the average volume of loans and the net interest spread thereon.
In 2015,2018, the average volume of retail loans increased by 12.2%9.1% from 2014,2017, primarily as a result of the general decrease in market interest rates and continued increase in demand for housing loans following the implementation of government policies in the second half of 2014 designed to stimulate the real estate market, including the loosening of maximum debt-to-income and loan-to-value ratios. In addition, the volume of mortgage and home equity loans increased as more households chose to purchase homes due to a substantial increase in the amounts ofrental long-term deposits required for house rentals and a general decrease in the supply of homes rented on long-term deposit leases.loans. In 2015,2018, the average volume of corporate loans increased by 8.8%7.8% from 2014, principally2017, primarily as a result of the general decrease in market interest rates and increased loan demand from SOHOsloans to SOHO and small- and medium-sizedmedium sized enterprises onin the back of the Government’s policy initiatives to promote the growth of such enterprises.manufacturing, real estate and service industries.
In 2016,2019, the average volume of retail loans increased by 13.1%11.1% from 2015,2018, primarily as a result of continued increase in the demand ofhome rental long-term deposits loans required for house rentals and lending to borrowers with high credit profiles.deposit loans. In addition, the Bank of Korea maintained the base interest rate at historically low levels and further reduced such rate to the historic low of 1.25% in June 2016, and government policies to stimulate the real estate market continued during the first half of 2016. The increase in retail loans slowed during the second half of
2016 as the Government, amid concerns about increasing household debt, announced policies and measures designed to curb the rapid growth in the volume of mortgage and home equity loans in August and November of 2016. In 2016,2019, the average volume of corporate loans increased by 5.6%10.2% from 2015,2018, primarily as a result of low market interest rates throughout 2016 and increased demands from SOHO and small- and medium sized enterprises, particularly from thosean increase in the manufacturing industry.facilities loans.
From 20142017 to 2015, both2018, the average yield on interest-earning assetsboth retail loans and corporate loans and the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased further (with the former decreasing more than the latter due to the difference in relative maturity profiles),deposits increased primarily due to the additional cutsincrease in the base interest rate by the Bank of Korea in MarchNovember 2017 and June 2015, whileNovember 2018. Meanwhile, the average balance increased for both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Largely due to the greater decreaseincrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets compared to that for the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities,retail and corporate loans was higher than that of deposits since our deposits generally have longer maturity profiles than our retail and corporate loans and are therefore less sensitive to movements in the base and market interest rates. Shinhan Bank’s net interest income decreasedincreased by 4.6%11.9% fromW4,3674,992 billion in 20142017 toW4,1655,586 billion in 2015.2018. Net interest income after provision for loancredit losses on loans amounted toW3,9034,510 billion andW3,5725,340 billion in 20142017 and 2015,2018, respectively. Shinhan Bank’s operating income decreasedincreased by 3.5%43.5% fromW1,7972,206 billion in 20142017 toW1,7343,165 billion in 2015.2018.
From 20152018 to 2016, both2019, the average yield on interest-earning assetsretail loans and the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased further (withdeposits increased as the latter decreasing more thanbase interest rate set by the former dueBank of Korea was increased from 1.50% to the difference1.75% in relative maturity profiles), primarily dueNovember 2018, resulting in a higher average market interest rate for 2019 compared to the additional decrease2018, notwithstanding decreases in the base interest rate by the Bank of Korea from 1.75% to 1.50% in June 2016, while the average balance increased for both interest-earning assetsJuly 2019 and interest-bearing liabilities. Largely duefrom 1.50% to the greater decrease1.25% in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities compared to the decrease in theOctober 2019. The average yield on interest-earning assets,corporate loans remained stable despite a higher average market interest rate in 2019 due to an increase in loans to corporate borrowers with high credit ratings which have lower interest rates. Shinhan Bank’s net interest income increased by 8.1%5.1% fromW4,1655,586 billion in 20152018 toW4,5045,872 billion in 2016.2019. Net interest income after provision for loancredit losses on loans amounted toW3,5725,340 billion andW3,8485,501 billion in 20152018 and 2016,2019, respectively. Shinhan Bank’s operating income increased by 13.0%3.1% fromW1,7343,165 billion in 20152018 toW1,9593,263 billion in 2016.2019.
As for Shinhan Card, its operating revenue is largely dependent on the transaction volume and less sensitive to interest rate movements than our banking business, since merchant fees (representing a fixed percentage of a credit card purchase amount) provide a stable source of income and our credit card business enjoys more diversified sources of funding, including commercial paper, corporate debentures (which have maturities longer than most bank deposit products) and asset-backed securitizations. The credit card transaction volume is largely dependent on the overall trends of the general Korean economy, such as general consumer spending patterns in
Korea. Shinhan Card’s operating revenues decreased by 27.8% fromW5,197 billion in 2017 toW3,752 billion in 2018, largely due to a decrease in fees and commission income as a result of the application of IFRS 15. Shinhan Card’s operating revenues increased by 3.1%3.7% fromW4,5973,752 billion in 20142018 toW4,7403,892 billion in 2015,2019, largely due to an increase in merchant fees collected due tointerest income resulting from an increase in the volumeloans of credit purchases (especially through check cards),foreign subsidiaries to increase their operating assets, as well as anShinhan Card’s acquisition of Prudential Vietnam Finance Company Limited (which subsequently changed its legal name to Shinhan Vietnam Finance). Interest income on credit card receivables increased due to a 7.0% increase in the volumeaverage balance of credit card loans, which were substantially offset by a decreasereceivables fromW21,366 billion in the volume of cash advances. However, the operating revenues2018 toW22,869 billion in 2019. In addition, fees and commission income decreased by 1.4%3.6% fromW4,7401,486 billion in 20152018 toW4,6731,432 billion in 2016,2019, primarily due to the decrease in the applicable rate of merchant fees for small- and medium-sized enterprises mandated by the Korean government in early 2016 and a decrease in factoring receivables management fee income as Shinhan Card ceased such services during 2016. The volume of cash advances has been in a steady decline since 2013 after we ceased allowing installment repayments and a revolving facility for cash advances. Partly as a result of a substitution effect,the Government’s continued policies to lower credit card loans have increased instead.merchant fees.
The following provides a discussion of the major trends surrounding the general economy and the financial services sector in Korea in 20162019 and our current outlook for 20172020 as they relate to our core businesses. The following discussion represents the subjective view of our management and may significantly differ from the actual results for 2017.2020.
Trends in the Korean Economy
In 2016,2019, the global economy displayedshowed signs of sluggishdeepening slowdown with the manufacturing sector at the epicenter, as overseas trade decreased sharply due to the escalation of the U.S.-China trade conflicts. With the prices of electronic parts, chemicals and raw materials, including semiconductors, generally declining compared to 2018, trade volume also decreased, leading to a downward trend of the global economy and dampening the growth of export-oriented countries, such as Germany, China and Korea. According to the International Monetary Fund, the global economic growth duerate for 2019 is estimated to delayedfall below 3 percent, which would be the lowest growth rate since the 2008 global financial crisis. Global economic recoveryuncertainties are expected to continue in 2020, including the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak and potential escalation of ongoing trade wars between major economies including the U.S. and China, among others. There are also uncertainties stemming from political events in major countries, including political uncertainties following Korea’s general elections in April 2020 and the economic recession experienced by developing countries. U.S. presidential election in November 2020. Any of these events or uncertainties may have a material adverse effect on the global economy and also our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In the United
States, employment and inflation indexes showed mixed signals, but the United States economy was able to maintain moderate growth, aided by a recovery in consumer spending. As a result, in December 2016, the Federal Reserve Board increased its benchmark interest rate to 0.25% and announced its plans to gradually increase interest rates in 2017. Due to expansionary monetary policies and the resulting depreciation of the Euro, Europe experienced a rise in exports. However, Europe’s growth was limited by political risks such as Brexit and the refugee crisis. China continues to show sluggish economic growth compared to 2015, amid corporate debt and structural reform issues.
During the first half of 2016,2019, the Korean economy experienced moderate but steadyrecorded a growth rate of 2.0% compared to a growth rate of 2.7% in 2018, showing signs of slowdown as exports of Korea’s major export products, including semiconductors, decreased as a result of a decrease in global demand mainly due to escalated U.S.-China trade disputes. Investments in the construction industry also decreased due to decreases in facility investments amid slowing exports as well as the Government’s strengthened regulations in the real estate market and reduced investment in social overhead capital (“SOC”). Despite the general economic slowdown, domestic household purchasing power remained stable due to increased welfare spending by the Government forlow-income households. However, overall economic growth was further weakened by structural factors such as the aging and declining population. In 2020, the overall sluggishness in the Korean economy is expected to continue as persisting uncertainty in the global economic environment is expected to continue affecting the Korean economy. In particular, petrochemical and other export items with high demands from China are expected to continue to experience a negative impact due to the economic slowdown in China amidst the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak, and although the decline in price for semiconductors, Korea’s main export item, may slow, it remains uncertain whether semiconductor exports will increase amidst global economic uncertainties. Facility investment in Korea has declined sharply during the past two years, and the global political and economic uncertainties are expected to continue to discourage companies from actively investing in new facilities in Korea. Investment in the housing sector is similarly expected to remain low due to the Government’s active domestic consumption stimulation policiestightening regulations on the real estate market, and structural factors such as reductionsthe aging population will continue to individual consumption taxes and increased investmentspersist. Although it is expected that the Government will implement policies to mitigate downturn in the construction industry as a result of an active real estate market. However,economy, for example large-scale fiscal spending and welfare spending, Korea’s economy is expected to continue to experience low growth rates despite
any fiscal expansion policy adopted by the Korean economy showed signs of slowing growth in the fourth quarter of 2016 due toGovernment. In particular, it is expected that factors including a sluggish Chinese economy, the delayed recovery of major economies, slowing exports, declining consumer confidence and private consumption. Korea’s annual growth rate of gross domestic product was 2.8% in 2016, marking the second consecutive year in which the annual growth rate of gross domestic product was in the 2% range. During the first half of 2017, the Korean economy may be vulnerable to stagnation, despite Government monetary policies such as a decreasedecline in individualexports, consumption taxes, dueand tourism if the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak were to be prolonged, as well as increased volatility in the financial markets and the possibility of escalations of trade disputes between major economies will pose downside risks to the potential declinedomestic economy in consumer confidence as a result of corporate restructuring and other factors.2020.
In 2017,2020, we consider the following as potential risks to the Korean economy: (i) possibility of a global recession in major markets due to the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak and resulting decline in consumer confidence; (ii) the increased volatility of foreign currency exchange markets due to the varying monetary policies of the global economies including decreases in base interest rates, fiscal and monetary easing policies; (iii) a prolonged slump in the Korean economy resulting from slowing of job creation and exacerbation of unemployment issues, particularly a rise in youth unemployment; (iv) China’s slowing growth and the possibility of a hard landing for China; (ii) the increased volatility of foreign exchange markets(v) potential decline in productivity due to aging demographics and low birth rates; (vi) uncertainty and volatility regarding the varying monetarypolitical and economic policies, including growing protectionism, of the United States and other major economies; (vii) concerns within the financial sectors due to high levels of household debt; and (viii) political risks including political instability due to North Korea. In particular, the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, which was declared a “pandemic” by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has led to significant global economic and financial disruptions, including an adverse impact on international trade and business activities, sharp declines and significant volatility in the financial markets as well as decreases in interest rates worldwide. In light of the high level of interdependence of the global economies; (iii) politicaleconomy, unfavorable changes in the global financial markets, including as a result of any of the foregoing potential risks, including upcoming electionscould have a material adverse effect on the Korean economy and financial markets, and in turn on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Accordingly, the economic outlook for the financial services sector in Korea in 2020 and political instability infor the U.S. and Europe, (iv) restructuring of domestic corporations, (v) increasing levels of household debt, (vi) weakened consumer sentiment and (vii) an aging population.foreseeable future remains highly uncertain.
As for interest rate movements, since 2009, Korea, like many other countries, has experienced a low interest rate environment despite some marginal fluctuations, in part due to the Government’s policy to stimulate the economy through active rate-lowering measures. Between 2009 and 2014, the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea remained within the band between 2.00% and 3.25%. In an effort to support Korea’s economy in light of the recentamidst a slowdown in Korea’s growth and uncertain global economic prospects, the Bank of Korea reduced the base interest rate to 1.75% in March 2015, 1.50% in June 2015 and further reduced such rate to the historic low of 1.25% in June 2016, which has2016. In November 2017, the Bank of Korea raised the base interest rate to 1.50%, marking the first time it increased the base interest rate since remained unchanged. Although2011, and in November 2018 further raised the base interest rate from 1.50% to 1.75%, citing concerns over household debt in the aggregate exceedingW1,500 trillion and potential outflow of funds due to the widening interest rate differential between the base interest rate of the Bank of Korea and the benchmark interest rate of the Federal Reserve Board. After increasing its benchmark interest rate three times during 2017, the Federal Reserve Board recently increased its benchmark interest rate four times during 2018, to a range of 2.25% to 2.50% in December 2018 when it signaled that it expected to raise the benchmark interest rate another two times during 2019. However, the Federal Reserve Board actually reduced the benchmark interest rate three times during 2019 amidst signs of slowdown in the U.S. and major global economies and recently lowered the rate again to a range of 1.0% to 1.25% on March 3, 2020 and to a range of 0% to 0.25% on March 15, 2020 in response to the threat posed to the economy by the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak. Similarly, the Bank of Korea also lowered the base interest rate from 1.75% to 1.50% in July 2019 and from 1.50% to 1.25% in October 2019, and further reduced the base interest rate from 1.25% to 0.75% on March 16, 2020 in response to 1% in March 2017 and announced plans to further increase interest rates during 2017, the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak. The Bank of Korea’s policy path of interest rates in 20172020 and for the foreseeable future remains uncertain.uncertain and will be affected in part by the policy path of the Federal Reserve Board, which also remains uncertain for the foreseeable future. The recent decreases in base interest rate by the Bank of Korea are expected to put further downward pressure on the Bank’s net interest margin, particularly if the base interest rate is decreased again during 2020.
Recent Developments and Outlook for the Korean Financial Sector
Commercial Banking
In 2016, majorSince the financial crisis in 2008, the asset size of Korean commercial banks has consistently grown year over year, including in 2019. Asset quality of commercial banks in Korea generally experienced modestalso continued to improve in 2019, but as net interest margin declined and growth of loans has weakened, the overall growth of the banking business has slowed down. Although the increase in terms of assets, principallyhousehold loans has slowed in part due to the Government’s real estate policies aimed at curbing household debt, loans for small- andmedium-sized enterprises remained stable due to banks’ efforts to support high performing small- andmedium-sized enterprises.
In 2020, asset growth for commercial banks in Korea is expected to slow due to a reboundvariety of factors, including the Government’s strengthening of policies on the housing market and household debt, such as those relating to total household debt management, introduction of debt service ratios andloan-to-deposit ratios, an expected slowdown in the real estate market and financial regulators’ continued focus on curbing the growth of housing loans. In addition, as the demand for loans from retailconsumer protection in investment products increases, the banks’ organization and corporate customers. The asset quality also improvedkey performance indicators are expected to a limited extent in terms of delinquencybe readjusted, and non-performing loan ratio. However, net interest margin for commercialfees and commission income generally is expected to decrease. Competition between banks generally tightened, largelyand fintech firms is expected to further intensify due to the reduction in the Government-set base rateintroduction of open banking and increasingamendments to Korea’s major data privacy laws. The resulting competition among Korean banks, particularly in relation to certain qualified fixed rate and installment payment loans.
Currently, we are not aware of any major regulatory developments that may have a material adverse effect on the commercial banking industry in Korea. However, the prolonged low-interest rate environment has presented limited opportunities for commercial banks to generate profit by taking advantage of differences between deposits and loans, and fueled intense competition among major commercial banks for quality customers. Furthermore, with the growing popularity of online financial service platforms, online service providers and technology companies with large-scale user networks, such as Kakao Corp., NAVER and Samsung
Electronics have also intensified the competition by making significant inroads in providing virtual payment services through a system based on a growing convergence of financial services and technology commonly referred to as “fintech.” In addition, Internet-only banks, which have commenced or are expected to commence operations during the first half of 2017 (K-Bank began operations in April 2017, and Kakao Bank is expected to launch duringgo beyond traditional price-based competition, requiring banks to focus on offering customized products and services based on big data analysis and integrating financial services with customers’ daily life patterns in order to provide differentiated value. The Government’s policies focusing on protection of consumers and encouraging inclusive financial policies are also expected to lead to further competition among banks for relevant businesses, such as businesses to support the first halfmiddle class, socially disadvantaged classes, small businesses and startups. As there may be an increased risk of 2017), may introduce new services and offer promotions to attract customersa decline in asset quality, particularly as a result of the existing commercial banks. Accordingly,recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak, we believe that strengthening risk management capabilities will become increasingly important and have a more direct impact on the financial performance of commercial banks will likely face increasing pressure to upgrade their service platforms to attract and maintain online users, which represents a growing customer base compared to traditional customers who have primarily conducted banking in-person at physical banking branches.in Korea.
Credit Cards
In 2016,2019, despite concerns regarding the implementationcredit card industry in light of Government regulations, mandating an additional reduction insuch as those lowering the applicable rate of merchant fees, for small- and medium-sized enterprises,a slowdown in growth of credit card market, the credit card industry showed generally good profitability due to efficient cost reduction, stabilization of procurement costs and quality focused growth. Capital stability and adequacy also remained stable during 2019.
In 2020, it is expected that credit card companies in Korea generally experienced a limited decline in net profits duewill continue to lower procurementcut marketing costs resulting from low interest rates, a general reduction in operational costs, stable delinquency levels and an increase inby decreasing high-cost products as the usage of credit cards resulting from the rapid adoption of mobile payments, increased use of credit cards to pay taxes and a reduction in individual consumption taxes. According to the Financial Supervisory Service, the total amount of card usage during the first half of 2016 wasW407 trillion, an increase of 11.5% compared to 2015 with total default rates remaining stable at 1.43%. Also, competition in the mobile payments market has become fierce as adoption rates grew rapidly as growth in existing markets stalled while future markets to grow. Shinhan Card responded to the economic environment with an emergency management plan that prevented a decline in profitability and actively invested in future growth areas.
In 2017, despite extensions to income tax deductions and increased use of credit cards to pay tuition, rent, taxes and monthly fees, card usage growth is expected to be limited amid weakening consumer spending due to the implementation of the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act and the effects of corporate restructuring. While the overall asset quality of the Korean credit card industry has been improving and delinquency levels are among the lowest they have ever been largely as a result of the credit card companies’ improved portfolio management and credit risk practices over the past decade, we believe it will become increasingly important for credit card companies to take precautionary risk management measures in the face of continued economic uncertainties and risks such as high levels of household debt and rising unemployment rates.
The Korean credit card market, which has the world’s highest level of credit card usage as a percentage of gross domestic product accordingis expected to statistics released by the Bank of Korea, has moved on from periods of growth into a period of maturity characterized by slow growth.down due to weakening consumer sentiment. Profitability may also decrease due to Government regulations. As product differentiation is difficult given the nature of the industry,vulnerable borrowers are more likely to become insolvent or otherwise unable to service their debt during an economic downturn, credit card companies face intense competition. In addition, the Korean credit card industry is expected to experience more heated competitionare preparing for a market environment with the introduction of Internet-only banks and as mobile payment systems utilizing new technology become more prevalent among consumers, forcing credit card companies to accelerate and enhance the incorporation of technology into their products.increased uncertainty in 2020.
Securities
In 2016,2019, the financial investment industry’s overall revenue hit a record high based on the performance of large securities companies and investment banks, despite the fact that the stock market experienced only moderate growth due to market uncertainties and low interest rates.
In 2020, the efforts to diversify revenue sources other than brokerage services, such as investment banking and sales and trading, are expected to continue in an effort to minimize the impact of stock price fluctuations on securities companies. We expect main issues in the securities industry in Korea reported2020 to include: (i) a decrease in netdemand for wealth management services and increased legal disputes amid Lime Asset’s suspension of withdrawals and resulting financial and reputational damage to certain major securities companies in Korea, (ii) a slow-down in the real estate market, particularly if Government measures aimed at restricting the real estate
market are adopted or existing measures are strengthened, (iii) increased volatility in the stock market, decreased transactions, restrictions on business activities for investment banking and resulting volatility of profits from sales and trading, particularly if the recent coronavirus(COVID-19) outbreak were to persist, and (iv) increased need for risk management due to a decrease in commission fee revenuesincreased contingent liabilities such as guarantees resulting from a lower volume of equity transactions and a decrease in gains on bonds as a result of increased benchmark interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board. According to data from the Financial Supervisory Service, return on equity for the industry decreased to 4.6% in 2016 from 7.3% in 2015.
In 2017, we expect various groups of competition to emerge as the scope of businesses security firms are permitted to take on become different according to the amount of available capital. Investment companies, which are classifiedinvestment banking business expansion. As entry barriers into financial investment business entities and comprehensive financial investment business entities depending on the amount of available capital, are expected to differentiate their main business models according
to the scope of business they are licensed to conduct. Due to the prolonged low interest environment, increasing economic uncertainty and market volatility, it is expected that demand for asset management services will increase and, as such, wealth management capabilities will become increasingly important.
In order to enhance the competitiveness of Korea’s capital market, the Government is implementing changes such as the liberalization of lending by financial investment companies, deregulation of private equity funds and introduction of the individual savings account (ISA) system. The Government is also planning to strengthen the capital market’s international competitiveness through a restructuring of the Korea Exchange, including its transformation into a holding company. On the competitive side, we expect competition to remain intense as the securities brokerage industry is already overcrowded with relatively low barriers of entry, although the industry is showing some signs of consolidation (such as the sale of Woori Investment & Securities to NH Securities, the acquisition of IM Investment & Securities by Meritz Securities, the acquisition of KDB Daewoo Securities by Mirae Asset and the acquisition of Hyundai Securities by KB Financial Group). We expect that mergers and acquisitions will continue to play a significant role in shaping the competitive landscape for the securities industry in Korea.
Dueare lowered, competition against fintech firms is expected to low entry barriers, limited differentiation and standardized product offerings, competition in the securities industry is intense.intensify. The Government is working to implement measures to develop large scale financial investment companies in order to increase competitiveness and to expand the number of potential growth opportunities for securities companies, including promotion of the financial product advisory businesses and securities companies have been moving quickly to seize opportunitiestest operations of consolidation and expansion.robo-advisor services. In order to improve profitability, it is becomingexpected to become increasingly important for companies in the securities industrycompanies to develop new, differentiating profit models and diversify its product offerings that will allow differentiation and utilization of the company’s unique strengths.offerings.
Life Insurance
In 2016,2019, the life insurance industry’s overall revenue on insurance rates increased slightlydeclined primarily due to a persisting low interest rate environment, as well as slowing growth of the continuous expansion of termeconomy, an aging population and low birthrates.
In 2020, the life insurance industry’s overall profitability is expected to continue to decline as the factors mentioned above continue to persist, and it is expected that risk management and underwriting (risk takeover) capability will become an increasingly important factor in life insurance companies’ ability to strategically reduce business expenses. In addition, the demands for health insurance products and growth of the groupretirement pension insurance market, but profit growth was limited due to thehave increased exposure to negative net interest margins amid continued slow growthsteadily, and low interest rates.
In 2017, we may continue to experience difficulty in profit growth due to continued negative net interest margins. In addition, strengthened capital regulations may require capital expansion. In addition, under IFRS 17, whichas a result it is expected tothat sales channels, products, and digital-based competitiveness will become effective beginning 2021, insurance contract liabilities will be calculatedmore important in terms of market value instead of book value,the future. As the line between financial and we may have a significantly higher debt balance due to higher insurance liabilities, thereby resulting in a decrease in our risk-based capital. Competition is expected to remain intense asnon-financial sectors become blurry and the life insurance market matures, we expect overall growth potential for the industry in Korea is mature and saturated,to be limited and the abilityimportance of developing differentiated products and services tailored to offer differentiatedcustomers’ individualized needs and expanding digital-based customer services in order to attract the growing population of the elderly and the retirees’ products will continue to be an ever important competitive factor.become increasingly important.
Asset Management
The asset management service industry is highly volatile and sensitive to the general trends in the overall cycles in the general economy and financial markets. Competition for this industry is likely to remain intense given the relatively low barrierstotal amount of entry and the difficulty to differentiate services.
In 2016, the asset management industry experienced a meaningful growth in assets under management largelyby asset management companies, including fund assets under management and discretionary investment contracts, increased by 11.4% toW1,139 trillion as of December 31, 2019 fromW1,022 trillion as of December 31, 2018, primarily due to an increase in managedprivate funds such as real estate funds, special asset funds and mixed asset funds. The total amount of fund assets withunder management increased by 17.7% toW652 trillion as of December 31, 2019 fromW553.5 trillion as of December 31, 2018, and the total amount of manageddiscretionary investment contracts increased by 4.1% toW486.8 trillion as of December 31, 2019 fromW467.7 trillion as of December 31, 2018. Operating profit increased by 12.8% toW918.7 billion in 2019 fromW467.7 trillion in 2018, due primarily to higher commission gains driven by the rise in total amount of assets surpassingunder management. As a result, net profit increased by 31.2% toW900795 billion in 2019 fromW984.4 trillion for the first time. Operating profits increased duein 2018.
In 2020, institutional investors are expected to the increase in managed assets,continue to lead the growth of which was partly stalledthe asset management industry. Growth of the private funds market is expected to slow, in part due to continued decline in investments in publicredemption delays and losses from several private funds. Investments in private equity funds increased due to investors’ interest in high yield products,Investors’ risk appetite may increase if U.S.-China trade tension is eased and total investments in private equity funds surpassed total investments in public funds for the first time.
In 2017, we expect the sustained low interest rate environment to continue and market uncertainty to increase and, as a result, the expected rate of return to decline and the demand for indirect investment products to remain relatively stable. We plan to improve the competitiveness of our various products and offer differentiated service by addressing the various needs and risk appetites of individual investors. Despite changes to global monetary policies and uncertaintyif improvement is shown in major stock markets, selective demand for equity investments will continue in 2017. Demand for specialized assets offering stablefinancial indicators, as returns such as structured products and real estateon bonds are expected to be relatively strong, whereas demanddecrease in alow-interest rate environment and hence demands for traditional global and domestic assetshigher return investment products are expected to decline.increase. As estimated returns on investments in the Korean market are expected to remain low due to slowing growth of the Korean economy, demand for investments in overseas markets is expected to increase. Demand for long-term investment products in the public fund market, such as individual annuity funds and retirement pension funds, is expected to continue to rise. Demand from investors looking to invest in ESG products is expected to continue to be strong as new ESG products are introduced into the market and gradually attract interest from retail investors.
Specialized Credit
The specialized credit business was introduced in Korea in August 1997. The specialized credit business cannot accept customer deposits and generally involves providing a combination of four types of financing: equipment and facilities leasing, installment finance, new technology finance and credit card services, and sources funding primarily by issuing debentures and commercial papers. The specialized credit business generally targets customers with higher risk profile in return for higher return compared to customers of commercial banks, which makes risk management (including customer screening) a particularly key factor for commercial success of this business.
Due, in part, to the variety of services being offered and the broad range of potential customers, specialized credit providers often find it relatively easy to develop new customer segments and provide niche offerings. Due to the relatively low barriers of entry, however, competition is intense and is expected to further intensify as a result of the commencement of automobile loan offerings by commercial banks and the expanded entry into personal loan markets by micro lenders. In addition, on September 30, 2015, the National Assembly of Korea passed an amendment to the Credit Finance Business Act, which, among other things, aims at alleviating restrictions on entry into the credit finance industry by lowering the minimum capital requirements for new entrants. WeIn line with recent Government policies emphasizing productive finance, we expect that specialized credit providers will continue to focus their efforts on finding new business opportunities, including by expanding the new technology finance segment and selective overseas expansions.
Interest Rates
Interest rate movements, in terms of magnitude and timing as well as their relative impactsimpact on our assets and liabilities, have a significant impact on our net interest margins and profitability, particularly with respect to its financial products that are sensitive to such movements. For example, if the interest rates applicable to Shinhan Bank’s loans (which are recorded as our assets) decrease at a faster pace or by a wider margin, or increase at a slower pace or by a thinner margin, compared to the interest rates applicable to its deposits (which are recorded as our liabilities), Shinhan Bank’s net interest margin will shrink and its profitability will be negatively affected. In addition, the relative size and composition of Shinhan Bank’s variable rate loans and deposits (as compared to our fixed rate loans and deposits) may also impact Shinhan Bank’s net interest margin. Furthermore, the difference in the average termrepricing frequency of Shinhan Bank’s interest-earning assets (primarily loans) compared to its interest-bearing liabilities (primarily deposits) may also impact its net interest margin. For example, since Shinhan Bank’s deposits currently have a longer term, on average, than that of its loans, its deposits are on average less sensitive to movements in the base interest rates on which its deposits and loans tend to be pegged, and therefore, an increase in the base interest rates tends to increase its net interest margin while a decrease in the base interest rates tends to have the opposite effect. Since Shinhan Bank is one of our principal operating subsidiaries, its net interest margin and profitability have a substantial effect on our overall net interest margin and profitability. While we continually manage our assets and liabilities to minimize our exposure to the interest rate volatility, such efforts by us may not mitigate the impact of interest rate volatility in a timely or effective manner.
The interest rate charged to customers by our banking subsidiaries is based, in part, on the “cost of funds index,” or COFIX, which is published by the Korean Federation of Banks. COFIX is computed based on the
weighted average interest of select funding products (including time deposits, housing and other installment savings deposits, repos, discounted bills and seniornon-convertible financial debentures) of eight major Korean banks (comprised of Shinhan Bank, Kookmin Bank, Woori Bank, KEB Hana Bank, Nonghyup Bank, Industrial Bank of Korea, Citibank Korea and Standard Chartered Bank Korea). Each bank then independently determines the interest rate applicable to its respective customers by adding a spread to the COFIX based on the difference between the COFIX and such bank’s general funding costs, administration fees, the customer’s credit score, the maturity of the loan and other customer-specific premiums and discounts based on the customer relationship with such bank. These interest rates are typically adjusted on a monthly basis.

Critical Accounting Policies
The notes to our consolidated financial statements contain a summary of our significant accounting policies, including a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements. Certain of these policies are critical to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. We discuss these critical accounting policies below. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report, unless otherwise indicated.
Operating Segments
An operating segment is a component of our business that engages in business activities from which we may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the other segments. Discrete financial information is available for each operating segment, and all operating segments’ operating results are reviewed regularly by our chief executive officer to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance.
Segment results that are reported to our chief executive officer include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Currently, we have five reportable segments: banking, credit cards, securities, life insurance and others.
Basis of Consolidation
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities that we control. The financial statements of our subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of our subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies we have adopted.
Structured Entities
We have established or invested in various structure entities. A structured entity is an entity designed so that its activities are not governed by way of voting rights. When assessing control of a structured entity, we consider factors such as the purpose and the design of the investee; our practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee; the nature of our relationship with the investee; and the size of our exposure to the variability of returns of the investee. We do not recognize any non-controlling interests in the consolidated statements of financial position since our interests in these entities are recognized as liabilities of us.
Investments in Associates and Joint Arrangements (Collectively, “Associates”)
Associates are those entities in which we have significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when we hold between 20% and 50% of the voting power of another entity or in excess of 15% if the other entity is classified as a subsidiary under the Banking Act. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. Our investment includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment losses. The consolidated financial statements include our share of the income and expenses and equity movements of associates, after adjustments to align their accounting policies with ours, from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. When our share of losses exceeds our interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying amount of that interest, including any long-term investments, is reduced to nil, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that we have an obligation or are otherwise required to make payments on behalf of the investee.
Transactions Eliminated on Consolidation
Intra-group balances, transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with associates are eliminated against the investment to the extent of our interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
Foreign Currency
Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of us and our subsidiaries at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Foreign currency differences arising on translation are recognized in profit or loss, except for differences arising on the translation of available-for-sale equity instruments, a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation or in a qualifying cash flow hedge, which are recognized in other comprehensive income. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Foreign Operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated into Won at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations, excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated into Won at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income in the translation reserve.
When a foreign operation is disposed of, the relevant amount in the translation is transferred to profit or loss as part of the profit or loss on disposal. In any other partial disposal of a foreign operation, the relevant proportion is reclassified to profit or loss.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by us in the management of our short-term commitments.
Non-derivative Financial Assets
Classification, measurement and impairment ofnon-derivative financial assets have been amended due to the adoption of IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ which became effective from January 1, 2018. As this report exhibits comparative financial statements prior to and after the adoption of the new standard, the critical accounting policies presented herein include information with regard to both IAS 39 and IFRS 9.
Non-derivative financial Assets — classification and measurement policy applicable before January 1, 2018 under IAS 39
Financial assets are classified into financialfour categories. (i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss loans and receivables, available-for-sale(“FVTPL”) are financial assets and held-to-maturity financial assets. Financial assets are recognized in the consolidated financial statements when we become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
A financial asset is measured initially at its fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition of the financial asset.
Financial Assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss
A financial asset is classified as held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss upon
initial recognition. These financial assets are measured at fair value after initial recognition and the changes in the fair value are recognized through profit or loss of the period. Costs attributable to the acquisition are immediately expensed in the period.
(ii) Held-to-maturity Financial Assets
Held-to-maturity financial assets arenon-derivative assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that we have the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. They are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method after their initial recognition.
Loans and Receivables
(iii) Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.
For non-collateral dependent loans, impairment is measured using a discount cash flow analysis under which allowances are established when the discounted cash flow of the loan is lower than its carrying amount. The allowance is equal to the difference between the discounted cash flow amount of the loan and its carrying amount. With respect to collateral dependent loans, our discount cash flow analysis considers, among other things, the fair value of the collateral underlying the subject loan. When the carrying amount of the subject loan is higher than the fair value of the collateral, the carrying amount is written down to the fair value of the collateral. The fair value of the collateral is determined as the present value of the estimated realizable value of the collateral at the expected time of the sale of such collateral. Once the valuation report of the court-appointed appraiser becomes publicly available as part of a foreclosure proceeding, we use the appraisal value for the collateral indicated in such report as the estimated realizable value of the collateral. However, until such publication, we use the valuation amount for the collateral as determined by outside independent appraisers at the time that the subject loan was initially approved, with adjustments made for the change in value from the effect of time passage and current market circumstances that may impact the value of the collateral.
As a general rule, we obtain updated appraisal on an annual basis for all collateral dependent loans and therefore, adjust the appraisal value of loans every 12 months. We estimate the fair value of collateral with outdated appraisal value primarily on the basis of the publicly available standard reference prices as officially published by the government (or (x) in the case of collateral in the form of apartment units, the real estate market price database maintained by Kookmin Bank for apartment units, (y) in the case of collateral in the form of other communal housing units, the publicly available standard reference prices as officially published by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport or (z) in the case of commercial buildings, the publicly available standard reference prices as officially published by the National Tax Service), except that (i) if there are bid prices for such collateral, we use as the fair value the lowest bid price deemed to be credible as to the bidder’s intent to purchase based on the written bid submitted by such purchaser and (ii) in the circumstances where we deem that the aforesaid reference prices do not accurately reflect the true value of such land, for example, due to a downturn in the relevant real estate market, we hire an outside appraiser to obtain an independent valuation, which valuation is typically derived from 90% or lower of the lowest of two or more sale prices from recent sales of similar types of collateral in the vicinity, and we use such valuation as the fair value for such collateral. Other than in the case of a bid price which is higher than the original appraisal value, we design our fair value estimation system so that the adjusted fair value does not exceed the original appraisal value and hence, in the absence of a higher bid price, the adjustments made have the effect of assigning a fair value lower than the original appraisal value. Since the magnitude of adjustments is principally dependent on reference prices maintained by the Government or bid prices, which are in turn dependent on the market prices, it varies case by case and is therefore difficult to compute the average adjustments made to outdated appraisals. After making such adjustments, we also internally appraise each collateral at least annually in order to ensure that the adjusted value is fair and reasonable.
We implement the following procedures to minimize the potential for outdated appraisal values being reflected in allowance for loan losses: (i) the date of appraisal is assigned next to the appraisal value to facilitate
identification of an appraisal value as being outdated, (ii) our internal audit department constantly monitors the status of appraisal values, and (iii) the loan-to-value ratio, usually 60%, is strictly enforced when making the original loan so that the value of collateral typically stays above the outstanding loan amount during the life of the loan even in the case of an adjustment to the original appraisal value. If in the limited circumstances where the adjusted fair value of collateral falls below the outstanding loan amount, if the loan is impaired, we promptly set aside allowance for loan losses for such difference in amount.
(iv) Available-for-sale Financial Assets
Available-for-sale (“AFS”) financial assets are the non-derivative financial assets that are designated asavailable-for-sale or are not classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,held-to-maturity investments or loans and receivables. They are measured at fair value after their initial recognition.
Derecognition of FinancialNon-derivative financial Assets — classification and measurement policy applicable from January 1, 2018 under IFRS 9
We derecognize aUnder IFRS 9,non-derivative financial assets are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss with the changes in fair value recognized in profit and loss as they arise, unless restrictive criteria are met for classifying and measuring the asset at either amortized cost (“AC”) or fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”). A financial asset whenshall be measured at FVOCI or at AC if both of the contractual rightsfollowing conditions are met:
the objective of our business model is to thehold assets only to collect cash flows, from or to collect cash flows and to sell (“the asset expire, or we transfer the rights to receive Business Model test”); and
the contractual cash flows of an asset give rise to payments on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”) on the principal amount outstanding (“the SPPI test”).
Despite meeting both criteria of the Business Model test and the SPPI test, we may, at initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as measured at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency (sometimes referred to as an ‘accounting mismatch’). Hybrid financial instruments which do not meet the criteria of contractual cash flow characteristics such as convertible bonds, equity-linked securities and structured deposits were classified as FVTPL regardless of its business model because the accounting to bifurcate embedded derivatives from the host contract is not allowed under IFRS 9.
Also, a special designation for equity instruments is allowed at initial recognition that would otherwise be measured at fair value through profit or loss to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income. It becomes important to distinguish these equity investments from other financial assets. IFRS 9 defines an equity investment as one meeting the definition of an equity instrument in IAS 32,Financial Instruments: Presentation — i.e., any contract that evidences a transactionresidual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Under IFRS 9, puttable instruments, which were previously classified as equity instruments in accordance with the exemption of IAS 32, are no longer qualified to be classified as equity instruments from the investor’s perspective. Some equity stocks, equity investments and beneficiary certificates which had been included inavailable-for-sale equity instruments under IAS 39 werere-classified into FVTPL because of their puttable characteristics upon adoption of IFRS 9.
Valuation of Financial Assets and Liabilities
All financial assets are measured at fair value exceptheld-to-maturity financial assets and loans and receivables under IAS 39 and financial assets at amortized cost under IFRS 9. The fair value of financial instruments being traded in an active market is determined by the published market prices at the end of each period. The published market prices of financial instruments being held by us are based on notifications by
trading agencies. Where the market for a financial instrument is not active, such as in the case ofover-the-counter market derivatives, fair value is determined by using either a valuation technique or an independent third-party valuation service.
We use various valuation techniques and set rational assumptions based on the present market situations. Such valuation techniques may include using recent arm’s length market transactions between knowledgeable and willing parties, if available, reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially all the riskssame, discounted cash flow analysis or option pricing models. The main assumptions and rewardsestimates which our management considers when applying a model with valuation techniques are:
The likelihood and expected timing of ownershipfuture cash flows on the instrument. These cash flows are usually governed by the terms of the financial asset are transferred. Any interestinstrument, although judgment may be required when the ability of the counterparty to service the instrument in transferred financial assets that we create or retainaccordance with the contractual terms is recognizedin doubt. Future cash flows may be sensitive to changes in market rates.
Selecting an appropriate discount rate for the instrument. The determination of this rate is based on an assessment of what a market participant would regard as a separate asset or liability.the appropriate spread of the rate for the instrument over the appropriate risk-free rate.

Level 3: Financial instruments measured using valuation techniques where one or more significant inputs are not based on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.observable market data are classified as level 3.
Impairment of Financial Assets
We assess atUnder IAS 39, a financial asset (or in aggregate thereof) as of the end of eachthe reporting period whetherwas considered to be impaired only when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred if, and only if, there iswas objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence thatLosses expected as a result of future events, no matter how likely, were not recognized under IAS 39. However, after the adoption of IFRS 9, we changed our impairment policy to recognized loss allowance for expected credit loss, and therefore we have been recognizing impairment loss on a more forward-looking basis and in a more timely manner than we did previously.
As IFRS 9 is based on expected credit loss, we evaluate whether the credit risk on a financial assets are impaired includes significant financial difficultyasset has increased significantly since initial recognition at the end of each reporting period. When making such assessment, we use the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the borrower or issuer, default or delinquencyfinancial asset instead of the change in interest or principal payments, restructuringthe amount of expected credit losses. In order to make this assessment, we compare the risk of a loandefault occurring on the financial asset as at the end of the reporting period with the risk of a default occurring on the financial asset as at the date of initial recognition, considering reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or a concession granted by us, which we would not otherwiseeffort and that demonstrates significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition. We consider indications that a borrower or issuer will enter bankruptcy orchanges in the risk of default estimated from changes in internal credit rating, qualitative factors, days of delinquency, and others as part of the evaluation criteria for significant increases in credit risk. For details, see Note 4 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in
this annual report. Impairment losses under IAS 39 on the other financial reorganization, or observable data such as an increased numberhand were estimated on the basis of delayed payments indicating that there is a measurable decrease in thehistorical loss experience, and estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets.
Loans and Receivables
We first assess whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for loans and receivables that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets, that are not individually significant. If we determine that no objective evidenceassessed collectively, were calculated based on impairment history of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, we include the asset in a group ofother similar financial assets with similar credit risk characteristicscharacteristics.
As for measurement model, IAS 39 determined whether to use an individual or collective assessment basis depending on the individual significance and collectively assess themthe existence of objective evidence of impairment. However, IFRS 9 has three types of measurement models – general approach, impairment approach, or simplified approach, depending on whether the financial asset was already impaired at the date of initial recognition and the classification of financial asset. We apply the general approach to most of our loans at amortized cost. The general approach requires recognition of lifetime expected credit losses for impairment. Assetsall financial assets for which there have been significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition — whether assessed on an individual or collective basis — considering all reasonable and supportable information, including that which is forward-looking.
As for measurement items, impairment standards of IAS 39 were applied to loans and receivables,available-for-sale securities andheld-to-maturity securities, respectively. However, expected credit losses under IFRS 9 are recognized on debt instruments at FVOCI or at AC, loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts regardless of whether the type of financial instrument is securities or loans or whether it ison-balance oroff-balance. In addition, as all equity instruments under IFRS 9 are measured at FVTPL or at FVOCI and the amount recognized in other comprehensive income shall not be subsequently transferred to profit or loss, impairment standards of IFRS 9 are not applied to equity instruments. In contrast, under IAS 39, a significant or prolonged decline in fair value of anavailable-for-sale equity security below its cost was considered as objective evidence of impairment, and the cumulative other comprehensive gain or loss was realized to profit or loss.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans
Loans are classified as financial assets at amortized cost except for certain loans whose contractual cash flows do not consist solely of payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Under IAS 39, loans were only permitted to be classified as loans and receivables. Loans at amortized cost under IFRS 9 are and loans and receivables under IAS 39 were subject to the application of impairment standards. The allowance for credit losses on loans has increased due to the adoption of IFRS 9 and the subsequent application of the new impairment model — expected credit loss model (whereas IAS 39 previously applied the incurred loss model). The allowance for credit losses on loans for the comparative financial statements as at the end of the period prior to adoption of the new standard was not restated, and the transition impact upon the initial adoption of IFRS 9 was recognized in retained earnings as of January 1, 2018.
The methodology for determining allowance for credit losses on loans is as follows and is mainly focused on Shinhan Bank which holds the majority of our loan assets.
- Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans Assessed Individually
Allowance for credit losses on loans assessed individually is based on the management’s best estimate derived from present value of future cash flows that are expected to be collected from debt instruments subject to assessment. When forecasting these cash flows, we utilize all relevant information and financial circumstances available such as net realizable value of relevant collateral and operating cash flows of counterparties. Based on the individual significance, Shinhan Bank determines whether to apply individual or collective assessment — collective assessment is applied for loans that are not individually significant or loans that are individually assessedsignificant but do not have significant increases in credit risk. Individual assessment is applied for impairmentloans that have relatively large balances and for which an impairment loss ishave had significant increase in credit risk or continueshave become impaired. Under IAS 39, Shinhan Bank evaluated impaired loans with relatively large balances individually. Shinhan Bank classifies credit-impaired borrowers with loan amounts of overW3 billion as subject to be recognizedindividual assessment (quantitative criteria) and also considers certain other factors such as asset quality, financial ratios, audit opinions and signs of insolvency (qualitative criteria).
Meanwhile, retail loans are not includedsubject to individual assessment as they are not significant in a collective assessment of impairment.amount from Shinhan Bank’s overall credit risk management perspective.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment- Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans Assessed Collectively
Allowance for credit losses on loansassessed collectively uses estimation model based on experience loss on loans and receivables has been incurred, the amount of theratio in order to measure expected credit loss is measured(incurred loss under IAS 39) embedded in portfolios. This model considers various factors such as the difference betweentype of borrower, credit rating and maturity in order to apply Probability of Default (“PD”) of each financial asset (or in the asset’s carrying amountaggregate), recovery rate per loan and collateral, as well as Loss Given Default (“LGD”). Additionally, we modelize the present valuemeasurement of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted atinherent loss and apply consistent assumptions in order to determine the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition).
If the interest rate of loans and receivables is a floating rate, the discount rate used to evaluate impairment loss is the current effective interest rate defined in an agreement. The present value of estimated future cash flows of secured financial assets is calculated by including cash flows from collateral after deducting costs to acquire and sell the collateral, regardless of the probability of realization of such collateral.
In assessing collective impairment, we rate and classify financial assets,input variables based on current circumstances and historical and forward-looking information. For forward-looking information, we utilize economic outlooks published by domestic and overseas research institutes or government and public agencies. We also reflect estimates of future macroeconomic conditions that we believe have been prepared without bias from a neutral viewpoint in measuring expected credit risk assessment or credit rating assessment process that takes into account asset type, industry, regional location, collateral type, delinquency and other relative factors.
Future cash flow of financial assets applicable to collective impairment assessment is estimated by using statistical modeling of historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgment as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the impairment losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical modeling. In adjusting the future cash flow by historical modeling, the result has to be in line with changes and trends of observable data (e.g., impairment loss of collective assets and unemployment rate, asset price, commodity price, payment status and other variables representing the size of implement loss). Methodologieslosses. The methodology and assumptions used to estimate future cash flowin this model are reviewed on a regular basis in order to narrow down discrepancyminimize the difference between impairment loss estimationestimated allowance for credit losses on loans and actual loss.credit losses on loans.
Impairment lossesShinhan Bank uses a PD/LGD model for collective assessment using three risk components – Exposure At Default (“EAD”), PD and LGD. EAD refers to the expected exposure at the time of default. EAD of financial assets is equal to the total carrying amount of such asset, and EAD of loan commitments or financial guarantee contracts are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against loans and receivables. When a subsequent event causescalculated as the sum of the amount of impairment loss to decrease,already used and the decrease canamount expected to be related objectively to an event occurring afterused in the impairment was recognized, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or lossfuture.
As for measurement of the period.
AllowancePD by loan type, we estimate PD for Loan Losses
Our methodologycorporate credit exposure based on internal credit ratings and PD for determining allowance for loan losses has changed in 2011.
Under both the previous and current methodology, determining allowance for loan losses involves determination both at the individual level andretail credit exposure based on Behavior Scoring System (BSS) ratings (which are largely based on the aggregate basis. Whilecredit history of retail loan borrowers and predict such borrowers’ payment patterns) and product type. If there is no material difference between our previous and current methodologyhasn’t been a significant increase in determining allowance for loan losses at the individual level except for differences in itscredit risk since initial recognition, of loan losses as a result of subsequent events, there are certain differences when determining the allowance on the aggregate basis.
When determining allowance for loan losses, under the previous methodology, Shinhan Bank, which accounts for the substantial majority of loans held by Shinhan Financial Group, used a migration model, while under the current methodology, Shinhan Bank used awe use probability of default / loss given default (“PD/LGD”) model. Certain differences may ariseevents occurring within the next 12 months. However if there has been a significant increase in allowances for loan losses calculated under the previous migration model and the current PD/LGD model.
Under the previous migration model, when determining allowance for loan losses, Shinhan Bank, which accounts for the substantial majority of loans held by Shinhan Financial Group, applied a migration model based on loan classifications. Shinhan Bank identified thecredit risk, we use probability of default for corporate loans through a migration model, which uses a statistical tool to monitorevents occurring over the progression of loans through nine different classifications over recent one year, while retail loans uses five different classifications over recent one year and are segmented into the two product types for the purposes of credit risk evaluation, namely, mortgage and home equity loans, and other retail loans (consisting of unsecured and secured retail loans). Loss given default for corporate loans is derived by the loss rate of individually evaluated impaired loans, while retail loans is derived by the historical charge-off and recovery informationremaining lifetime of the portfolio.loan.
UnderLGD refers to the current PD/expected loss if a borrower defaults. We calculate LGD, model, Shinhan Bank calculates the aggregate allowance for loan losses by multiplying (x) the probability of default for each class of borrowers that have been assigned the same credit
rating by (y) the loss given default for such class of borrowers. A particular credit rating is assigned individually to each borrower based on (i) the borrower type (namely, household, corporate, SOHOs or high-risk borrowers) and (ii) its particular risk and credit profile within such type, using our proprietary credit evaluation model.
Our current PD/where LGD model determines the probability of default for each class of borrowers having the same credit rating as follows. First, we determine the projected probability of default for such class of borrowers using the longer look-back periods under IFRS. However, at least annually (and more frequently during times of heightened systemic risks)= (1 – RR), we test such projected probability of default against the actual rate of default among such class of borrowers in the 12-months period immediately preceding such testing date. If based on such test the actual rate of default exceeds the mean or the maximum value of projected probability of default, we reassess, on an individual basis and using more conservative metrics, the credit rating assigned to each borrower within such class. Such credit rating reassessment generally has the effect of lowering the credit rating for a substantial number of borrowers that initially belonged to such class, which in turn has the effect of increasing the allowance of losses on an aggregate basis since the pool of borrowers having high credit ratings will have shrunk (and the pool of borrowers having lower credit ratings will have expanded) as the result of the individualized credit rating reassessment. Hence, such recalibration has the effect of reflecting the effects of current conditions in our final determination of the probability of default.
The migration and PD/LGD methods described above also have other differences. Under the previous migration method, the historical loss rate on migration analysis is calculated from a transition matrix table based on asset quality classification and takes into consideration historical loss rates and recovery rates after charge-off, whereas the current PD/LGD method (sophisticated approach), also known as the AIRB approach under Basel II, is calculated via measurable long-term risk factors such as probability of default from risk grading and loss given default based on the Basel II framework.Recovery Rate (“RR”) measured from past default exposures. The model for measuring LGD is developed to reflect type of collateral, seniority of collateral, type of borrower and cost of recovery. In particular, LGD for retail loan products usesloan-to-value ratio as a key variable. The recovery rate reflected in the LGD calculation is based on the present value of recovery amount, discounted at the effective interest rate.
We believe that our current PD/LGD model has the following advantages comparedaccounting estimates related to the previous migration model:
Available-for-sale Financial Assets
We recognize impairment losses on available-for-sale equity investments when there is a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment. We consider the decline in the fair value of more than 30% against the original cost as a “significant decline.” Also, we determine that there was a “prolonged decline” if the market price of an equity investment remains below the carrying amount for six consecutive months.
Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets are recognized by transferring the cumulative loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the fair value reserve in equity, to profit or loss. The cumulative loss that is removed from other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and amortization, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss. Changes in impairment provisions attributable to time value are reflected as a component of interest income.
If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale debt security increases and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, then the impairment loss is reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognized in profit or loss. However, any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale equity security is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Held-to-maturity Financial Assets
An impairment loss in respect of held-to-maturity financial assets measuredloans at amortized cost is calculated as theand our allowance for credit losses on loans are “critical accounting policies” because: (1) they are highly susceptible to change from period to period since they require us to make assumptions about future default rates and losses relating to our loan portfolio; and (2) any significant difference between its carrying amountour estimated losses on loans (as reflected in our allowance for credit losses on loans) and actual losses on loans could require us to record additional provisions for credit losses on loans which, if significant, could have a material impact on our profit. Our assumptions about estimated losses require significant judgment because actual losses have fluctuated in the present valuepast and are expected to continue to do so, based on a variety of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate and is recognized in profit or loss. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognized through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.factors.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivatives are recognized initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.
Hedge Accounting
We hold derivative financial instruments to hedge our foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures. On initial designation of the hedge, we formally document the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and hedged item(s), including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. We make an assessment, both at the inception of the hedge relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, whether the hedging instruments are expected to be “highly effective” in offsetting the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the respective hedged items during the period for which the hedge is designated, and whether the actual results of each hedge are within a range of80-125%. For a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction, the transaction should be highly probable to occur and should present an exposure to variations in cash flows that could ultimately affect reported net income.
IFRS 9 maintains the mechanics of hedge accounting (three types of hedge accounting) as defined in IAS 39 but modifies it such that it becomes less complex and more aligned with the actual way risks are managed as compared to IAS 39. Previous hedging relationships which hedge accounting had been applied under IAS 39 therefore still remain effective after adoption of IFRS 9.
Fair Value Hedges
When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the change in fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a firm commitment that could affect profit or loss, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized immediately in profit or loss together with changes in the fair value of the hedged item that are attributable to the hedged risk (in the same line item in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as the hedged item).
If the hedging derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the hedge no longer meets the criteria for fair value hedge accounting, or the hedge designation is revoked, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. Any adjustment to aarising from gain or loss on the hedged item upattributable to the point for which the effective interest method is usedhedged risk is amortized to profit or loss as part offrom the recalculated effective interest rate ofdate the item over its remaining life.hedge accounting is discontinued.
Cash Flow Hedges
When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction that could affect profit or loss, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax, and presented in the hedging reserve in equity. The amount recognized in other comprehensive income is removed and included in profit or loss in the same period as the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss under the same line item in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as the hedged item. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss previouslyon the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income and presentedfrom the period when the hedge was effective remains separately in the hedging reserve in equity remains there until the forecast transaction occurs. When the transaction occurs, the related cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same
period that the hedged item affects profit or loss. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the balance in other comprehensive income is recognized immediately in profitcumulative gains or loss. In other cases the amountlosses that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is transferredare immediately reclassified to profit or loss in the same period that the hedged item affects profit or loss.
Net Investment in a Foreign Operation
If the settlementHedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, including a hedge of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operationthat is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, then foreign currency difference arising on the item which in substance is considered to formaccounted for as part of the net investment in the foreign operation, are recognized in the other comprehensive income and shall be reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investment.
Separable Embedded Derivatives
Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative, and the combined instrument is not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Changes in the fair value of separable embedded derivatives are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Other Non-trading Derivatives
When a derivative financial instrument is not held for trading, and is not designated in a qualifying hedge relationship, all changes in its fair value are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
Property and Equipment
Items of property and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. We elect to measure land and buildings at fair value at the date of transition and use those fair values as their deemed costs.
The cost of replacing a part of an item of property or equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probableextent that the future economic benefits embodied withinhedge is effective. To the part will flow to us and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount ofextent that the replaced costhedge is derecognized.

Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. In respect of associates, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment, and an impairment loss on such an investment is not allocated to any asset, including goodwill, that forms part of the carrying amount of the equity method accounted investee.
Research and Development
Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure is capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and we intend to and have sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalized includes the cost of materials, direct labor, overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, and borrowing costs on qualifying assets for which the commencement date for capitalization is on or after January 1, 2010. Other development expenditure is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Capitalized development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible Assets such as Club Memberships with Indefinite Useful Lives
There are no foreseeable limits to the periods over which club memberships are expected to be available for use. This intangible asset is determined as having indefinite useful lives and not amortized.
The useful lives of intangible assets that are not being amortized are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support indefinite useful life assessments for those assets. Changes are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.
Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets with finite useful lives that we acquire are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortization
Amortization is calculated over the cost of the asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.
Investment Property
Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes.
Investment property is measured initially at cost. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement. Subsequently, investment property is carried at depreciated cost less any accumulated impairment loss.
Leased Assets
Classification of a Lease
A finance lease is a lease that transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset from the lessor to the lessee; title to the asset may or may not transfer under such a lease. An operating lease is a lease other than a finance lease.
Lessee
Under a finance lease, the lessee recognizes the leased asset and a liability for future lease payments. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.
Under an operating lease, the lessee recognizes the lease payments as expense over the lease term and does not recognize the leased asset in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Lessor
Under a finance lease, the lessor recognizes a finance lease receivable. Over the lease term the lessor accrues interest income on the net investment. The receipts under the lease are allocated between reducing the net investment and recognizing finance income, so as to produce a constant rate of return on the net investment.
Under an operating lease, the lessor recognizes the lease payments as income over the lease term and the leased asset in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Assets Held for Sale
Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. Immediately before
classification as held for sale, the assets, or components of a disposal group, are remeasured in accordance with our accounting policies. Thereafter generally the assets, or disposal group, are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognized in profit or loss. Gains are not recognized in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.
Impairment ofNon-financial Assets
The carrying amounts of ournon-financial assets, other than investment property andassets arising from employee benefits, deferred tax assets and assets held for sale, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill, and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using apre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit,” or “CGU”).
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not recognized separately, and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate may be impaired.
Non-Derivative Financial Liabilities
Depending on commitments in a contract and definition of financial liabilities, the non-derivative financial liabilities are categorized as either at fair value through profit or loss or other financial liabilities.
Our equity-linked securities are hybrid financial products that combine features of debt securities and equity options. Their returns are based on the interest earned on the debt securities plus the gains or losses from the equity options. Equity-linked securities can be offered in Korea only by specially licensed brokers dealing in over-the-counter derivative products, and we offer these products through Shinhan Investment.
Under the accounting principle of fair value option, we measure the fair value of the equity-linked securities and reflect the changes in such fair value in net income. We compute the fair value of these securities primarily internally based on the Black and Scholes’ option pricing model, except that in the case of overseas stocks, overseas stock indexes or other underlying assets, we use the average of valuations by two outside valuation firms hired by us.
Financial Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss
The financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include a financial liability held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. These financial liabilities are measured at fair value after initial recognition and changes in the fair value are recognized through profit or loss of the period. Costs attributable to the issuance or acquisition are immediately expensed in the period.
Other Financial Liabilities
The financial liabilities not classified as at fair value through profit or loss are classified into other financial liabilities. The liabilities are measured at a fair value minus cost relating to issuance upon initial recognition. Then, they are carried at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Only when financial liabilities become extinct, or obligations in a contract are cancelled or terminated, are they derecognized from our consolidated statements of financial position.
Equity Instrument
Capital Stock
Capital stock is classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the transaction of stock are deducted, net of tax, from the equity.
Preference Share Capital
Preference share capital is classified as equity if it is non-redeemable, or redeemable only at our option, and any dividends are discretionary. Dividends thereon are recognized as distributions within equity upon approval by our shareholders.
Preference share capital is classified as a liability if it is redeemable on a specific date or at the option of the shareholders, or if dividend payments are not discretionary. Dividends thereon are recognized as interest expense in profit or loss as accrued.
Hybrid Bond
We classify issued financial instrument, or its component parts, on initial recognition as a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. Hybrid bonds, in which we have an unconditional right to avoid delivering cash or another financial asset to settle a contractual obligation, are classified as equity instruments and presented in equity.
Non-controlling Interest
Non-controlling interest, which means the equity is a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent, consists of the amount of those non-controlling interests at the date of the original combination calculated in accordance with IFRS 3(R) “Business Combination” and the non-controlling interests’ share of changes in equity since the date of the combination.
Employee Benefits
Short-term Employee Benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if we have a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Other Long-term Employee Benefits
Our net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits other than pension plans is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on AA credit-rated bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of our obligations. The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Defined Benefit Plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. Our net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of plan assets is deducted. The calculation is performed annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income. We determine the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to thethen-net defined benefit liability (asset), taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) during the period as a result of contributions and benefit payments. Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in personnel expenses in profit or loss.
The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on high-quality corporate bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of our obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. We recognize service cost and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) in profit or loss and remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability (asset) in other comprehensive income.
When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in profit or loss. We recognize gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
Defined Contribution Plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.
Termination Benefits
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense when we are committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.
Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognized as an expense if we have made an offer of voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value.
Share-based Payment Transactions
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service andnon-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet the related service andnon-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards withnon-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is notrue-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.
The fair value of the amount payable to employees in respect of share appreciation rights, which are settled in cash, is recognized as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to payment. The liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at settlement date. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are recognized as personnel expense in profit or loss.
Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, we have a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
Financial Guarantee Contract
Financial guarantees are contracts that require us to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee liabilities are recognized initially at their fair value, and the initial fair value is amortized over the life of the financial guarantee. The financial guarantee liability is subsequently carried at the higher of this amortized amount and the present value of any expected payment when a payment under the guarantee has become probable. Financial guarantees are included within other liabilities.
Financial Income and Expense
Interest
Interest income and expense are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments and receipts through the expected life of the financial asset or liability (or, where appropriate, a shorter period) to the carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, we estimate future cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument, but not future credit losses.
The calculation of the effective interest rate includes all fees and points paid or received that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of a financial asset or liability.
Recognition of Interest Income on Impairment Losses
Once an impairment loss has been recognized on a loan, although the accrual of interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the instrument is discontinued, interest income is recognized at the rate of interest that was used to discount estimated future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss.
Fees and Commission
Fees and commission income and expense that are integral to the effective interest rate on a financial asset or liability are included in the measurement of the effective interest rate.
Other fees and commission income, including account servicing fees, investment management fees, sales commission, placement fees and syndication fees, are recognized as the related services are performed. When a loan commitment is not expected to result in the draw-down of a loan, the related loan commitment fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the commitment period.
Other fees and commission expense relate mainly to transaction and service fees, which are expensed as the services are received.
Dividends
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive income is established. Usually this is the ex-dividend date for equity securities.
Customer Loyalty Program
For customer loyalty programs, the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of the initial sale is allocated between award credits (“points”) and other components of the fee and commission income. The Group provides awards, in the form of price discounts and by offering a variety of gifts. The fair value allocated to the points is estimated by reference to the fair value of the monetary and/or non-monetary benefits for which they could be redeemed. The fair value of the benefits is estimated taking into account the expected redemption rate and the timing of such expected redemptions. Such amount is deferred and recognized as unearned revenue. Unearned revenue is recognized only when the points are redeemed and the Group has fulfilled its obligations to provide the benefits. The amount of revenue recognized in those circumstances is based on the number of points that have been redeemed in exchange for benefits, relative to the total number of points that are expected to be redeemed.
Income Tax
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Taxable profit is different from accounting profit for the period since taxable profit excludes temporary differences (which will be taxable or deductible in determining taxable profit (tax loss) of future periods) andnon-taxable ornon-deductible items from accounting profit.
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. DeferredA deferred tax liability is recognized for all taxable temporary differences. A deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that there will be taxable profit against which such deductible temporary differences can be utilized. However, deferred tax is not
recognized for the following temporary differences: (i) taxable temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of goodwill, (ii) the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and (iii) differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates, and interests in joint ventures, to the extent that we are able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income
taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
We file our national income tax return with the Korean tax authorities under the consolidated corporate tax system, which allows us to make national income tax payments based on our and our wholly owned domestic subsidiaries’ consolidated profits or losses. Deferred taxes are measured based on the future tax benefits expected to be realized in consideration of the expected profits or losses of eligible companies in accordance with the consolidated corporate tax system. Consolidated corporate tax amounts, once determined, are allocated to each of our subsidiaries and are used as a basis for the income taxes to be recorded in their separate financial statements.
Accounting for Trust AccountsRecently Adopted Standards and Interpretations
We accountIFRS 16, ‘Leases’
IFRS 16, published on May 22, 2017, replaces existing standards including IAS 17, ‘Leases’, IFRIC 4, ‘Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease’,SIC-15, ‘Operating Leases — Incentives’ andSIC-27, ’Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease’. The Group has applied IFRS 16 from the year beginning on January 1, 2019, the date of initial application.
Previously, we classified our leases either as an operating lease or a finance lease based on whether the lease substantially transfers the risk and reward of owning the underlying assets. IFRS 16 introduced new or amended requirements with respect to lease accounting. It introduced significant changes to lessee accounting by removing the distinction between operating and finance leases and requiring the recognition of aright-of-use asset and a lease liability at commencement for trust accounts separatelyall leases, other than short-term leases and leases of low value assets. In contrast to lessee accounting, the requirements for lessor accounting have remained largely unchanged.
The accumulated effects on retained earnings due to the initial application of IFRS 16 on January 1,2019 was zero, and the comparative financial information presented has applied IAS 17 and the related Interpretations as previously reported have not been restated. The transition effects arising from our group accounts underchanges in accounting policies are described in Note 51 of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and thus the trust accounts are not included in thenotes to our consolidated financial statements except those which are guaranteed as to principal (or as to both principal and interest) controlled by us, based on an evaluation of the substance of its relationship with us and the special purpose entity’s risks and rewards. Funds transferred between a group account and a trust account are recognized as borrowings from trust accountsincluded in other liabilities with fees for managing the accounts recognized as non-interest income by us.
Earnings per Share
We present basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for our ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to an ordinary shareholder by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible notes and share options granted to employees.this annual report.
New Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted
IFRS 9, publishedThere are no new or amended standards or interpretations that have yet to been adopted but are expected to have a significant impact on September 25, 2015, is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with earlier adoption permitted. It replaces existing guidanceour consolidated financial statements. Details are described in IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. We plan to adopt IFRS 9 for the year beginning after January 1, 2018.
Key features of the new standard, IFRS 9, are (i) classification and measurement of financial assets that reflects the business model in which the assets are managed and their cash flow characteristics, (ii) impairment methodology that reflects the “expected credit loss” model for financial assets and (iii) expanded scope of hedged items and hedging instruments which qualify for hedge accounting and changes in assessment method for effect of hedging relationships.
IFRS 9 introduces additional requirements for a financial asset to be classified as measured at amortized costs or fair value through other comprehensive income compared to the existing guidance in IAS 39 and therefore would potentially increase the proportion of financial assets that are measured at fair value through profit or loss, thereby increasing volatility in our profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the “incurred loss” model in the existing standard with a forward-looking “expected credit loss” model for loans, debt instruments, lease receivables, contractual assets and financial guarantee contracts, and therefore impairment losses are likely to be recognized earlier than using the incurred loss model under the existing guidance. In addition, under IFRS 9, which provides principle-based and less complex guidance in determining the scope of hedged items and hedging instruments that quality for hedge accounting, more hedged items and hedging instruments would qualify for hedge accounting.
IFRS 9 will require us to assess the financial impact from application of IFRS 9 and revise our accounting processes and internal controls related to financial instruments. Actual impact of adopting IFRS 9 will be dependent on the financial instruments we hold and economic conditions at that time as well as accounting policy elections and judgment that it will make in the future. For further details, see Note 3 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

Interest income.The 1.0% increase Interest income increased by 15.7% fromW13,572 billion in interest income was2018 toW15,707 billion in 2019 primarily due primarily to an increase in interest on loans.loans at amortized cost and, to a lesser extent, an increase in interest on securities at amortized cost. Interest on loans at amortized cost increased by 2.3%11.4% fromW9,02511,159 billion in 20152018 toW9,23012,435 billion in 2016,2019 primarily as a result of a 8.9%increases in the average balances of both retail loans and corporate loans and an increase in the average lending rates on retail loans as further described below. Interest on securities at amortized cost increased by 45.3% fromW730 billion in 2018 toW1,061 billion in 2019 primarily due to an increase in the average balance of total loanssecurities resulting fromW234,125 billion in 2015 toW254,946 billion in 2016 due to increases in the average balances our acquisition of retail loans and corporate loans as further described below, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average lending rate from 3.85% in 2015 to 3.62% in 2016 as a result of a general decrease in market interest rates driven by the decrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea.Orange Life Insurance.
Interest income on retail loans increased by 3.5%16.0% fromW3,1264,029 billion in 20152018 toW3,2364,672 billion in 2016,2019, primarily due to a 13.1%11.1% increase in the in the average balance of retail loans fromW89,393115,622 billion in 20152018 toW101,092128,474 billion in 2016, which was partially offset by a decrease2019 as well as an increase in the average lending rate for retail loans from 3.50%3.48% in 20152018 to 3.20%3.64% in 2016.2019. The average balance of retail loans increased primarily as a result of increased demand in the general decrease inhousing market interest ratesdespite stricter regulations on maximumdebt-to-income and a continued increase in demand for housing loans followingloan-to-value ratios implemented by the implementation of government policies designed to stimulate the real estate market, including the loosening of maximum debt-to-income and loan-to-value ratios.Government on mortgage loans. In addition,particular, the volume of mortgage and home equity loans increased as more households chose to purchase homes due to a continued increase in the amounts of long-term deposits required for househousing rentals and a decrease in the supply of homes rented onavailable for long-term deposit leases. Such trends slightly slowed during the fourth quarter of 2016 due to the Korean government’s tightening of mortgage regulations to address concerns about the increasing volume of mortgage and home equity loans. The average lending rate for retail loans decreasedincreased primarily as a result of the general decreaseincrease in market interest rates largely driven by the decreaseincrease in the base interest rate from 1.50% to 1.75% by the Bank of Korea in November
2018, notwithstanding decreases in the base interest rate by the Bank of Korea from 1.75% to 1.50% in July 2019 and from 1.50% to 1.25% in October 2019. The base rate set by the Bank of Korea largely determines the market rates for certificates of deposit, which in turn largely determines the lending rates for a substantial majority of our retail loans.
Interest income from corporate loans increased by 10.3% fromW5,154 billion in 2018 toW5,686 billion in 2019, primarily due to a 10.2% increase in the average balance of such loans fromW144,063 billion in 2018 toW158,797 billion in 2019, despite the average lending rate for corporate loans remaining stable. The average balance of corporate loans increased principally as a result of an increase in facilities loans as Shinhan Bank increased its target loan growth in 2019 to match an expected increase in funding, for example, upon Shinhan Bank’s designation as the primary bank for Seoul Metropolitan Government and Incheon Metropolitan City. The average lending rate for corporate loans remained stable at 3.58% for 2018 and 2019 despite a higher average market interest rate in 2019 due to an increase in loans to corporate borrowers with high credit ratings which have lower interest rates.
Interest expense.Interest expense increased by 19.6% fromW4,992 billion in 2018 toW5,969 billion in 2019, due primarily to a 17.9% increase in interest expense on deposits fromW3,092 billion in 2018 toW3,645 billion in 2019, as well as a 24.6% increase in interest expense on debt securities issued fromW1,337 billion in 2018 toW1,666 billion in 2019.
The increase in interest expense on deposits was due to an increase in the average interest rate payable on deposits from 1.23% in 2018 to 1.33% in 2019 as well as a 9.2% increase in the average balance of deposits fromW251,552 billion in 2018 toW274,807 billion in 2019. The increase in the average interest rate payable on deposits resulted mainly from an increase in the average interest rate payable on time deposits from 1.81% in 2018 to 1.92% in 2019, as well as an increase in the average interest rate payable on savings deposits from 0.56% in 2018 to 0.58% in 2019. The average interest rate payable on time deposits increased largely as a result of higher average market interest rates for 2019 compared to 2018 as described above. The increase in the average balance of deposits was primarily due to a 12.7% increase in the average balance of time deposits, which was largely a result of customers’ preference forlow-risk investments in light of the continuing uncertainty in financial markets.
The increase in interest expense on debt securities issued was due primarily to a 25.3% increase in the average balance of debt securities issued from W55,931 billion in 2018 to W70,087 billion in 2019, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average interest rate payable on debt securities from by 1 basis points to 2.38% in 2019 from 2.39% in 2018. The average balance of debt securities increased principally as a result of an increased funding requirements resulting from an increase in the average balance of loans.
Net interest margin.Net interest margin represents the ratio of net interest income to the average balance of interest-earning assets. Our overall net interest margin decreased by 7 basis points from 2.14% in 2018 to 2.07% in 2019 largely due to the increase in average volume of interest-earning assets described above outpacing the increase in net interest income.
Net interest spread, which represents the difference between the average rate of interest earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate of interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, decreased by 14 basis points from 1.91% in 2018 to 1.77% in 2019 due to a 10 basis point increase in the average rate of interest on interest-bearing liabilities to 1.57% in 2019 from 1.47% in 2018 and a 4 basis point decrease in the average rate of interest on interest-earning assets to 3.34% in 2019 from 3.38% in 2018. The average rate of interest on interest-bearing liabilities increased primarily due to a 10 basis point increase in the average interest rate on deposits. The average rate of interest on interest-earning assets decreased primarily due to a 4 basis point decrease in the average interest rates on securities, which was mainly due to the reduced average interest rate on securities at amortized cost. The average volume of interest-earning assets increased by 17.3% fromW400,974 billion in 2018 toW470,309 billion in 2019 largely as a result of an increase in the volume of retail and corporate loans, as
well as an increase in the volume of securities resulting from our acquisition of Orange Life Insurance. The average volume of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 12.2% fromW340,060 billion in 2018 toW381,422 billion in 2019 largely due to an increase in deposits, which was primarily driven by customers’ preference forlow-risk investments in light of the continuing uncertainty in financial markets and our efforts to attract more low cost deposits.

Other fees and commission income increased by 34.3% fromW571 billion in 2018 toW767 billion in 2019 primarily due to our acquisition of Orange Life Insurance. Asset management fees income increased by 30.6% fromW235 billion in 2018 toW307 billion in 2019 primarily due to an increase in management fees received from specified money and real estate related trust accounts of Shinhan Bank.

Investment banking fees income increased by 65.9% fromW91 billion in 2018 toW151 billion in 2019 primarily due to increased brokerage and advisory fees for mergers and acquisitions and other corporate transactions.
Credit card fees income decreased by 9.3% fromW1,360 billion in 2018 toW1,234 billion in 2019, primarily as a result of the Government’s continued policies to lower credit card merchant fees.

Net other operating expenses increased by 13.5% toW6,833 billion in 2019 fromW6,020 billion in 2018, primarily due to an increase in net loss on financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss by 3,033.3% fromW27 billion in 2018 toW846 billion in 2019 and an increase in general and administrative expenses by 8.3% fromW4,742 billion in 2018 toW5,135 billion in 2019, as well as, to a lesser extent, as we recognized net loss on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) ofW247 billion in 2019 compared to net gain on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) ofW75 billion in 2018, which was partially offset by an increase in net gain on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss by 229.8% fromW420 billion in 2018 toW1,385 billion in 2019.
The increase in net loss on financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss was largely a result of an increase in disposal loss from financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss held by Shinhan Investment. The increase in general and administrative expenses was largely due to our acquisition of Orange LifeInsurance. We recognized net loss on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) in 2019 compared to net gain on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) in 2018 as gains on valuation of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss of Shinhan Life Insurance and Orange Life Insurance were reclassified in 2019 to other comprehensive income through the application of overlay approach. Net gain on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss increased largely due to a decrease in market interest rates towards the end of 2019, resulting in an increase in the fair value of financial instruments.

Provision for credit loss allowance increased by 31.1% fromW748 billion in 2018 toW981 billion in 2019 principally due to a 29.2% increase in credit loss allowance on loans fromW705 billion in 2018 toW911 billion in 2019. Our credit loss allowancefor loans increased primarily due to an increase in allowance for credit losses on corporate loans as well as credit card loans. Allowance for credit losses on corporate loans increased mainly due to an increase in delinquency ratio and credit deterioration in certain corporate borrowers, as well as an increase in the proportion of unsecured corporate loans which are subject to higher loss given default rates compared to secured corporate loans. Allowance for credit losses on credit card loans increased primarily as a result of an increase in the balance of credit card receivables.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense increased by 0.1% fromW1,268 billion in 2018 toW1,269 billion in 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in profit before income taxes by 10.0% toW4,911 billion in 2019 fromW4,466 billion in 2018. Our effective rate of income tax decreased to 25.8% in 2019 from 28.4% in 2018.
Net Income for the Period
As a result of the foregoing, our net income for the period increased by 13.9% fromW3,198 billion in 2018 toW3,642 billion in 2019.

Our other comprehensive income increased significantly fromW52 billion in 2018 toW566 billion in 2019, primarily due to an increase in gain on financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, as well as to a lesser extent because we recognized gain on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) in 2019 compared to loss on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) in 2018. Gain on financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income increased by 118.6% toW352 billion in 2019 fromW161 billion in 2018 primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates and stock prices. We recognized gain on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) ofW163 billion in 2019 compared to loss on financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (overlay approach) ofW54 billion in 2018, primarily as gain on valuation and disposal of financial instruments increased in 2019 due to a decrease in market interest rates towards the end of 2019, resulting in an increase in the fair value of financial instruments. Gain on foreign currency translation adjustments for foreign operations increased by 430.0% toW106 billion in 2019 fromW20 billion in 2018, primarily due to an increase in foreign currency exchange rates amid depreciation in the valuation of the Won.

Interest income. Interest income increased by 15.0% fromW11,799 billion in 2017 toW13,572 billion in 2018 primarily due to an increase in interest on loans and, to a lesser extent, an increase in interest on securities resulting from an increase in the average balance of government and public bonds. Interest on loans increased by 15.6% fromW9,674 billion in 2017 toW11,182 billion in 2018 primarily as a result of increases in the average balances of and average lending rates on both retail loans and corporate loans as further described below.
Interest on retail loans increased by 17.9% fromW3,416 billion in 2017 toW4,029 billion in 2018, primarily due to a 9.1% increase in the average balance of retail loans fromW105,998 billion in 2017 toW115,622 billion in 2018 as well as an increase in the average lending rate for retail loans from 3.22% in 2017 to
3.48% in 2018. The average balance of retail loans increased primarily as a result of the relatively low interest rate environment and increased demand in the housing market despite stricter regulations on maximumdebt-to-income andloan-to-value ratios implemented by the Government on mortgage loans. In particular, the volume of mortgage and home equity loans increased as more households chose to purchase homes due to a continued increase in the amounts of long-term deposits required for housing rentals and a decrease in the supply of homes available for long-term deposit leases. The average lending rate for retail loans increased primarily as a result of the general increase in market interest rates largely driven by the increases in base interest rate by the Bank of Korea from 1.25% to 1.50% in 2016November 2017 and from 1.50% to 1.75% in
2015. November 2018. The base rate set by the Bank of Korea largely determines the market rates for certificates of deposit, which in turn largely determines our lending rates for a substantial majority of our retail loans.
Interest income from corporate loans increased by 0.5%17.3% fromW4,0954,395 billion in 20152017 toW4,1175,154 billion in 2016,2018, primarily due to a 5.6%7.8% increase in the average balance of such loans fromW120,180133,602 billion in 20152017 toW126,891144,063 billion in 2016, which was partially offset by a decrease2018, as well as an increase in the average lending rate for corporate loans from 3.41%3.29% in 20152017 to 3.24%3.58% in 2016.2018. The average balance of corporate loans increased principally as a result of the general decrease in market interest rates and increased loan demand from SOHOs and small- andmedium-sized enterprises on the back ofamid the Government’s policy initiatives to promote the growth of such enterprises. The average lending rate for corporate loans decreasedincreased largely as a result of the general decreaseincrease in market interest rates as well as continued increasing competition among commercial banks for high-quality corporate loans in the midst of an increase in general market liquidity for corporate borrowers.described above.
Interest expense.Interest expense decreasedincreased by 9.2%26.2% fromW4,4373,956 billion in 20152017 toW4,0314,992 billion in 2016,2018, due primarily to a 9.6% decrease24.6% increase in interest expense on deposits fromW2,8612,482 billion in 20152017 toW2,5873,092 billion in 2016 and2018, as well as a 8.3% decrease23.2% increase in interest expense on debt securities issued fromW1,1841,085 billion in 20152017 toW1,0861,337 billion in 2016.2018.
The decreaseincrease in interest expense on deposits was due to a decreasean increase in the average interest rate payable on deposits from 1.43%1.06% in 20152017 to 1.16%1.23% in 2016, which was partially offset by an 11.2%2018 as well as a 7.1% increase in the average balance of deposits fromW199,935234,863 billion in 20152017 toW222,386251,552 billion in 2016.2018. The decreaseincrease in the average interest rate payable on deposits resulted mainly from a decreasean increase in the average interest rate payable on time deposits from 2.03%1.55% in 20152017 to 1.64%1.81% in 2016,2018, as well as an increase in the average interest rate payable on savings deposits from 0.51% in 2017 to 0.56% in 2018. The average interest rate payable on time and savings deposits increased largely reflectingas a result of a general decreaseincrease in market interest rates attributable toreflecting the decreaseincrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea as well as ample liquidity in the Korean financial sector.Korea. The increase in the average balance of deposits was primarily due to a 8.6%an 8.1% increase in the average balance of time deposits which represent the substantial majority of deposits, as well as and a 12.4%6.9% increase in the average balance of savingssaving deposits, fromW56,083 billion in 2015 toW63,061 billion in 2016. The increase in the average balance of time and savings depositswhich was largely due toa result of customers’ preference forlow-risk investments in light of the continuing uncertainty in financial markets.
The decreaseincrease in interest expense on debt securities issued was due primarily to a decrease18.6% increase in the average balance of debt securities issued from W47,151 billion in 2017 to W55,931 billion in 2018 as well as an increase in the average interest rate payable on debt securities from 3.01%by 9 basis points to 2.39% in 2015 to 2.55%2018 from 2.30% in 2016, which was partially offset by an 8.2% increase in the average balance of debt securities fromW39,335 billion in 2015 toW42,578 billion in 2016.2017. The average interest rate payable on debt securities issued decreasedincreased largely due to the general decreaseincrease in market interest rates in 2016 and our active efforts to refinance debt securities carrying high interest rates. The average balance of debt securities issued increased largely due to favorable market conditions which allowed us to raise capital at lower interest rates, as well as the issuance of subordinated debt securities by Shinhan Bank in order to increase our regulatory capital.2018.
Net interest margin.Net interest margin represents the ratio of net interest income to the average balance of interest-earning assets. Our overall net interest margin decreasedincreased by 31 basis points from 2.08%2.13% in 20152017 to 2.05%2.14% in 20162018 largely due to a decrease of the average rate ofincrease in net interest receivable on interest-earning assets by 25 basis points to 3.20%income described above outpacing the increase in 2016 from 3.45% in 2015 and an increase of the average volume of interest-bearing assets by 10.4% toW292,703 billion in 2016 fromW265,023 billion in 2015.
Net interest spread, which represents the difference between the average rate of interest earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate of interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, increased by 4 basis points from 2015 to 2016 primarily due to a 29 basis point decrease in the average rate of interest payable on interest-earning liabilities, principally consisting of deposits and debt securities issued, from 1.67% in 2015 to 1.38% in 2016, which was largely attributable to lower funding costs associated with Won-denominated debt securities issued and other Won-denominated funding sources due to the decrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea, which more than offset a decrease in the average interest rate receivable on interest-earning assets, which
primarily consist of Won-denominated loans and securities held by us, as explained above. In general, as was the case in 2015, a decrease in the base rates set by the Bank of Korea tends to decrease our net interest margin since our deposits (on which we pay interest) have, on average, a longer maturity profile than our loans (from which we receive interest) do and are therefore less sensitive to movements in base and market interest rates. See “— Overview — Interest Rates.”

Net fees and commission income decreased by 3.4% fromW1,621 billion in 2015 toW1,566 billion in 2016, primarily as a result of a 18.7% decrease in brokerage fees income fromW411 billion in 2015 toW334 billion in 2016 and a 2.7% increase in credit card fees expenses fromW1,849 billion in 2015 toW1,899 billion in 2016, which were partially offset by a 20.1% decrease in other expenses.
The decrease in brokerage fees income was primarily due to a decrease in the daily average stock trading volume as a result of unfavorable stock market performance in 2016. The increase in credit card fees expenses was principally attributable to an increase in the use of membership points by Shinhan Card’s credit card customers, as well as an increase in the fees paid to banks. The decrease in credit card fees income was principally attributable to a decrease in the rate of merchant fees we charge on small- and medium-sized enterprises and a resulting decrease in annual merchant fees, which was partially offset by an increase in average credit card balances.

Net other operating expenses increased by 6.0% toW5,662 billion in 2016 fromW5,341 billion in 2015, primarily as a result of a net loss on financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss ofW502 billion we recorded in 2016 compared to a net gain ofW460 billion in 2015 and a 79.7% increase in other expense fromW444 billion in 2015 toW798 billion in 2016, which were partially offset by a net trading income ofW370 billion in 2016 compared to net trading loss ofW344 billion in 2015 as well as a 492.3% increase in net foreign currency transaction gain fromW78 billion in 2015 toW462 billion in 2016.
We recorded a net loss on financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss largely as a result of an increase in valuation loss from financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss held by Shinhan Investment. Other expense increased primarily due to an increase in net loss related to risk hedging account derivatives in Shinhan bank and Shinhan Card.
The change in net trading income to a gain from a loss was largely due to valuation gains on certain derivative instruments. Foreign currency transaction gain increased primarily due to an increase in net valuation gain on foreign-currency denominated assets and liabilities as a result of volatile fluctuations in the relevant foreign currencies during 2016.

Note:
Impairment loss on financial assets decreased by 5.4% fromW1,264 billion in 2015 toW1,196 billion in 2016 principally due to a 63.6% decrease in impairment on securities fromW242 billion in 2015 toW88 billion in 2016, which was partially offset by a 7.9% increase in impairment loss on loans fromW1,022 billion in 2015 toW1,103 billion in 2016.
Substantially all of our impairment losses recorded on available-for-sale financial assets were related to the impairments of our available-for-sale equity investments primarily resulting from the decline in the market price or fair value of such investments. We recognized impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets ofW96,381 million in 2016, of whichW29,032 million, or approximately 30%, was due to a significant decline in our investment in Samsung C&T Corporation. We recognized impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets ofW254,883 million in 2015, of whichW98,583 million, or approximately 39%, was due to a prolonged decline in our investment in POSCO andW58,994 million, or approximately 23%, was due to a significant decline in our investment in Macquarie Korea Opportunities Management Ltd. To a limited extent, we have also recognized impairment losses due to liquidation, bankruptcy proceedings, de-listing and other qualitative factors.
Our impairment loss on loans increased primarily due to a 10.7% increase in impairment loss on retail loans fromW122 billion in 2015 toW135 billion in 2016 principally due to increased exposure as a result of an increase in the volume of retail loans; a 9% increase in impairment loss on corporate loans fromW602 billion in 2015 toW656 billion in 2016 principally due to an increase in allowance for corporate loan losses during the first half of 2016 as certain of our corporate borrowers in the construction, shipbuilding and shipping industries underwent restructuring; and a 4.3% increase in impairment loss on credit card loans fromW300 billion in 2015 toW313 billion in 2016 principally due to increased exposure as a result of an increase in the volume of credit card loans.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased by 50.2% fromW695 billion in 2015 toW346 billion in 2016 primarily as a result of the recognition of deferred tax assets, which amounted toW336 billion, based on loss carry-forward, partially offset by the increase in Shinhan Bank’s taxable income. Our effective rate of income tax decreased to 10.9% in 2016 from 22.1% in 2015. We had not previously recognized deferred tax assets relating to the expired unused tax losses as the utilization of the expired unused tax losses had been assessed remote. In 2016, however, based on the new tax interpretation issued by Korea National Tax Service which allows utilization of expired unused tax losses against extinguishment of deposit and insurance liabilities and the recent tax refund, Shinhan Bank recognized the deferred tax asset after factoring in future taxable profits and the expected future extinguishment of deposit and insurance liabilities.
Net Income for the Period
As a result of the foregoing, our net income for the period increased by 15.5% fromW2,446 billion in 2015 toW2,825 billion in 2016.

Other comprehensive loss increased by 21.4% fromW337 billion in 2015 toW409 billion in 2016, principally due to a 63.2% increase in net loss on net change in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets fromW266 billion in 2015 toW434 billion in 2016, which was partially offset by a change in remeasurement of defined benefit lability from a net loss ofW82 billion in 2015 to a net gain ofW15 billion in 2016. The increase in net loss on fair value of available-for-sale financial assets was largely due to fluctuations in interest rates and stock prices, as well as an increase of reclassification of changes in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets due to recognition of impairment losses and disposal. The change in remeasurement of defined benefit lability was largely due to changes in financial assumptions, including discount rates and wage growth.

Note:
Interest income. The 7.7% decrease in interest income was due primarily to a decrease in interest on loans. Interest on loans decreased by 7.1% fromW9,714 billion in 2014 toW9,025 billion in 2015, primarily as a result of a decrease in the average lending rate from 4.53% in 2014 to 3.85% in 2015 largely as a result of a general decrease in market interest rates driven by the decrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea and the ample liquidity in the Korean financial sector, which was partially offset by a 9.2% increase in the average balance of total loans fromW214,315 billion in 2014 toW234,125 billion in 2015 due to increases in the average balances of retail loans and corporate loans as further described below.
Interest on retail loans decreased by 6.4% fromW3,340 billion in 2014 toW3,126 billion in 2015, primarily due to a decrease in the average lending rate for retail loans from 4.19% in 2014 to 3.50% in 2015, which was partially offset by a 12.2% increase in the average balance of retail loans fromW79,642 billion in 2014 toW89,393 billion in 2015. The average lending rate for retail loans decreased largely as a result of the general decreaseincrease in market interest rates largely driven by the decreaseincrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea which was reduced from 2.00%1.25% to 1.50% in 2014November 2017 and 1.50% to 1.75% in March 2015 and further to 1.50% in June 2015. The base rate set by the Bank of Korea largely determines the market rates for certificates of deposit, which in turn largely determines our lending rates for a substantial majority of our retail loans. The average balance of retail loans increased principally as a result of the general decrease in market interest rates and a continued increase in demand for housing loans following the implementation of government policies in the second half of 2014 designed to stimulate the real estate market, including the loosening of maximum debt-to-income and loan-to-value ratios. In addition, the volume of mortgage and home equity loans increased as more households chose to purchase homes due to a substantial increase in the amounts of long-term deposits required for house rentals and a general decrease in the supply of homes rented on long-term deposit leases.
Interest income from corporate loans decreased by 8.3% fromW4,465 billion in 2014 toW4,095 billion in 2015, which was primarily due to a decrease in the average lending rate for corporate loans from 4.04% in 2014 to 3.41% in 2015, which was partially offset by a 8.8% increase in the average balance of such loans fromW110,460 billion in 2014 toW120,180 billion in 2015. The average lending rate for corporate loans decreased largely as a result of the general decrease in market interest rates, as well as continued increasing competition among commercial banks for high-quality corporate loans in the midst of an increase in general market liquidity for corporate borrowers. The average balance of corporate loans increased principally as a result of the general decrease in market interest rates and increased loan demand from SOHOs and small- and medium-sized enterprises on the back of the Government’s policy initiatives to promote the growth of such enterprises.
Interest expense.Interest expense decreased by 15.8% fromW5,271 billion in 2014 toW4,437 billion in 2015, due primarily to a 17.0% decrease in interest expense on deposits fromW3,449 billion in 2014 toW2,861 billion in 2015 and a 9.1% decrease in interest expense on debt securities issued fromW1,302 billion in 2014 toW1,184 billion in 2015.
The decrease on interest expense on deposits was due to a decrease in the average interest rate payable on deposits from 1.89% in 2014 to 1.43% in 2015, which was partially offset by a 9.8% increase in the average balance of deposits fromW182,113 billion in 2014 toW199,935 billion in 2015. The increase in the average balance of deposits was primarily due to a 20.6% increase in the average balance of demand deposits fromW21,871 billion in 2014 toW26,365 billion in 2015 and a 22.9% increase in the average balance of savings deposits fromW45,622 billion in 2014 toW56,083 billion in 2015, while the average balance of time deposits, which represents the substantial majority of deposits, increased only slightly fromW112,469 billion in 2014 toW113,932 billion in 2015. The decrease in the average interest rate payable on deposits resulted mainly from a decrease in the average interest rate payable on time deposits from 2.58% in 2014 to 2.03% in 2015, largely reflecting a general decrease in market interest rates attributable to the decrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea as well as ample liquidity in the Korean financial sector. The increase in the average balance of demand deposits was largely due to an increase in newly opened demand deposit accounts (including accounts for automatic deposit of salaries and credit card settlements) mainly as a result of our active marketing efforts, as well as the decreased use of check cards. The increase in the average balance of savings deposits was largely due to the customers’ preference for low-risk investments in light of the continuing uncertainty in financial markets.
The decrease in interest expense on debt securities issued was due to a decrease in the average interest rate payable on debt securities from 3.56% in 2014 to 3.01% in 2015, which partially offset by a 7.6% increase in the average balance of debt securities fromW36,544 billion in 2014 toW39,335 billion in 2015. The average interest rate payable on debt securities issued decreased largely due to the general decrease in market interest rates in 2015 and our active efforts to refinance debt securities carrying high interest rates. The average balance of debt securities issued increased largely due to favorable market conditions which allowed us to raise capital at lower interest rates, as well as the issuance of subordinated debt securities by Shinhan Bank in order to increase our regulatory capital.
Net interest margin.Net interest margin represents the ratio of net interest income to the average balance of interest-earning assets. Our overall net interest margin decreased by 23 basis points from 2.31% in 2014 to 2.08% in 2015, due to a decrease of 15 basis points in net interest spread from 1.93% in 2014 to 1.78% in 2015, which more than offset a 9.64% increase in the average volume of interest-earning assets fromW293,965 billion in 2014 toW322,308 billion in 2015.November 2018.
Net interest spread, which represents the difference between the average rate of interest earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate of interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, decreased by 3 basis points from 20141.94% in 2017 to 20151.91% in 2018 primarily due to a 6521 basis point decreaseincrease in the average rate of interest receivable on interest-earning assets, principally consisting of loans, from 4.10% in 2014 to 3.45% in 2015 primarily resulting from the decrease in base interest rates set by the Bank of Korea from 2.00% in 2014 to 1.50% in 2015, which more than offset a 50interest-bearing liabilities and an 18 basis point decreaseincrease in the average rate of interest paid on interest-earning assets.
Although our interest-bearing liabilities from 2.17% in 2014 to
1.67% in 2015 primarily due to a decrease in the average interest rate payable on deposits from 1.89% in 2014 to 1.43% in 2015 and a decrease in the average interest rate payable on debt securities issued from 3.56% in 2014 to 3.01% in 2015, in each case, for reasons discussed above. In general, as was the case in 2014, a decrease in the base rates set by the Bank of Korea tend to decrease our net interest margin since our deposits (on which we pay interest) have, on average, a longer maturity profileprofiles than our loans (from which we receive interest)interest-earning assets do and are therefore less sensitive to movements in base and market interest rates. See “— Overview — Interest Rates.”rates, the average rate of interest on interest-bearing liabilities outpaced that of interest-earning assets primarily due to an 11 basis point decrease in the average interest rate on credit card receivables resulting from the effect of promotion providing lower interest rates as part of revenue diversification strategy of Shinhan Card. The average volume of interest-earning assets increased by 8.7% toW400,974 billion in 2018 fromW369,040 billion in 2017 largely as a result of an increase in the volume of retail and corporate loans. The average volume of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 8.5% toW340,060 billion in 2018 fromW313,450 billion in 2017 largely as a result of an increase in deposits, primarily driven by customers’ preference forlow-risk investments in light of the continuing uncertainty in financial markets and our effort to attract more low cost deposits.

2018. The increase in credit card fees income was principally attributable to an increase in average credit card balances, which was partially offset by a decrease in the rate of fees we charge on merchants. The increase in brokerageasset management fees income was primarily due to an increase in the daily average stock trading volume as a resultmanagement fees received from specified money and real estate related trust accounts of the favorable stock market performanceShinhan Bank.
Credit card fees expense decreased by 52.5% fromW1,989 billion in the first half of 2015. The increase2017 toW945 billion in 2018, and credit card fees income decreased by 42.6% fromW2,370 billion in 2017 toW1,360 billion in 2018. Such decrease in credit card fees expensesincome and expense was principally attributabledue to an increase in the useapplication of membership points by Shinhan Card’sIFRS 15. Under IFRS 15, amounts allocated to credit card points are considered payables to the customers and recognized as wella reduction of fees and commission income, estimated as an increase in the fair value of the monetary benefits, taking into account the expected redemption rate. In addition, cardholder service fees paid to banks.customers, which had previously been recognized as fees and commission expense, are recognized as reductions of fees and commission income under IFRS 15. However, these changes do not have a material effect on net fees and commission income as any such decrease in
fees and commission income are offset by a corresponding decrease in fees and commission expense. For further details, see Note 51 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

Changes other than those mentioned are mainly due to changes in classification criteria of financial instruments as a result of the adoption of IFRS 9.
Others increased largely due to a decrease in loss allowances for unused credit limits of Shinhan Card. Dividend income decreased due to the change of classification criteria of debt instruments and equity instruments. IFRS 9 requires to classify puttable instruments such as beneficiary certificates as debt instruments which had been classified as equity instruments under previous IAS 39 and the income resulted from those financial instruments has been recognized as interest income accordingly, not dividend.
As a result of the adoption of IFRS 9, gains or losses on securities, which had previously recognized as (i) trading income or loss, (ii) gain or loss on financial instruments designated at fair value through profitFVTPL or (iii) gain or loss on sale ofW460 billion we recorded in 2015 compared to a net AFS securities, are now recognized as (i) valuation and disposal gain or loss ofW361 billion in 2014on financial instruments at FVTPL, (ii) valuation and a 75.0% increase in dividend income fromW176 billion in 2014 toW308 billion in 2015, which were partially offset by a net tradingdisposal gain or loss ofW344 billion in 2015 compared to net trading income ofW262 billion in 2014.
We recorded a net gain on financial instruments designated at fair value through profitFVTPL or (iii) valuation and disposal gain or loss largely as a resulton financial instruments at FVOCI. Following the adoption of an increase in valuation gain from financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss held by Shinhan Investment. Dividend income increased primarily due to a general increaseIFRS 9, measurement model and measurement items specified in the volumeimpairment standard were changed. Allowance for expected credit losses are required to be recognized for all debt instruments except those classified as financial assets at FVTPL, regardless of loans or securities. Equity instruments, on the other hand, are no longer subject to impairment assessment. As such, we recognized provision for credit loss allowance for loans at AC and debt securities held by us, as well as one-off dividends received from certain fundsat AC
or FVOCI measured based on the expected credit loss model whereas we had previously recognized impairment loss for loans and securities.
The changeequity instruments based on the incurred loss model. For further information, see Notes 2 and 51 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in net trading income (loss) was largely due to valuation losses on certain available-for-sale derivative instruments.this annual report.

We recognized provision for credit loss allowance ofW748 billion in 2018 compared to net provision for credit loss allowance ofW1,014 billion in 2017. For loans, we recognized provision for credit loss allowance for loans ofW705 billion in 2018 compared to net impairment loss on loans ofW800 billion in 2017. As of January 1, 2018, we increased our credit loss allowance for loans byW561 billion, fromW2,311 billion toW2,872 billion, which was a result of the measurement model being changed from the “incurred loss” model under the previous guidance to a more forward-looking “expected credit loss” model upon adopting IFRS 9. The effect of such increase in credit loss allowance for loans was recorded in our retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. While the provision for credit loss allowance for loans in 2018 decreased compared to the net impairment loss on loans in 2017, which was mainly due to the reversal of impairment loss on certain corporate borrowers
during 2018, credit loss allowance for loans increased toW2,725 billion as of December 31, 2018 under IFRS 9 fromW2,311 billion as of December 31, 2017 under the previous guidance of IAS 39. For further information on the financial impact of IFRS 9 on our credit loss allowance, see “Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Law, Regulation and Government Policy — The implementation of IFRS 9 has caused us to increase our allowance for impairment losses to cover expected credit loss on our loan portfolio and other financial instruments and may increase volatility in our profit or loss.” We also recognized provision for credit loss allowance for securities ofW14 billion in 2018 compared to net impairment loss on securities ofW198 billion in 2017, which was principally due to impairment loss onavailable-for-sale equity instruments, including, a significant decline in the fair value ofW131 billion in Shinhan Bank’s investments in Kookmin Cable Investment Inc. during 2017, which was the largest portion of impairment loss on securities, no longer being subject to impairment assessment upon the implementation of IFRS 9.

The items recognized in other comprehensive income were changed due to the adoption of IFRS 9, particularly related to classification and measurement of securities. We recognized valuation gain on financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income ofW136184 billion in 2014, which was partially offset by a 47.1% decrease in remeasurement2018 compared to loss related to defined benefit plan toonavailable-for-sale financial assets ofW82323 billion in 2015 from2017. We recognized gain on foreign currency translation adjustments for foreign operations ofW15520 billion in 2014. The change2018 compared to loss on foreign currency translation adjustments for foreign operations ofW194 billion in fair value
of available-for-sale financial assets was largely2017, primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates and stock prices, as well as an increase in the sale of financial assets during the first half of 2015.

The average volume of retail loans increased largely due to an increase in home rental long-term deposit loans and mortgage loans for new home purchases and increased lending to customers with high credit profiles. The narrowing of net interest margin was largely due to the decrease in the market interest rates reflecting the decrease in the base interest rate set by the Bank of Korea in 2016, which was reduced from 1.75% in March 2015 to 1.50% in June 2015 and further to 1.25% in June 2016.

Net other income for corporate banking decreased primarily due to an increase in exchange rate margins on Shinhan Bank’s foreign exchange services.

| ITEM 5.B. | Liquidity and Capital Resources |
We are exposed to liquidity risk arising from the funding of our lending, trading and investment activities and in the management of trading positions. The goal of liquidity management is for us to be able, even under adverse conditions, to meet all of our liability repayments on time and fund all investment opportunities. For an explanation of how we manage our liquidity risk, see “Item 4.B. Business Overview — Risk Management — Market Risk Management — Market Risk Management forNon-trading Activities — Liquidity Risk Management.” In our opinion, the working capital is sufficient for our present requirements.
The following table sets forth our capital resources as of December 31, 2016.2019.

We obtain funding from a variety of sources, both domestic and foreign. Our principal source of funding is customer deposits obtained from our banking operations, and we from time to time issue equity and debt securities. In addition, our subsidiaries acquire funding through call money, borrowings from the Bank of Korea, other short-term borrowings, corporate debentures, other long-term debt and asset-backed securitizations.
Our primary funding strategy has been to achievelow-cost funding by increasing the average balances oflow-cost retail customer deposits. Customer deposits accounted for 72.0%72.9% of our total funding as of December 31, 2014, 73.7%2017, 71.1% of our total funding as of December 31, 20152018 and 73.7%70.1% of our total funding as of December 31, 2016.2019. Historically, except in limited circumstances, largely due to the lack of alternative investment opportunities for individuals and households in Korea, especially in light of a low interest rate environment and volatile stock market conditions, a substantial portion of such customer deposits were rolled over upon maturity and accordingly provided a stable source of funding for our banking subsidiaries. However, in the face of attractive alternative investment opportunities such as during a bullish run of the stock market, customers may transfer a significant amount of bank deposits to alternative investment products in search of higher returns, which may result in temporary difficulties in finding sufficient funding on commercial terms favorable to us. In addition, in recent years, we have faced increasing pricing competition from our competitors with respect to our deposit products. If we do not continue to offer competitive interest rates to our deposit customers, we may lose their business, which has traditionally provided a stable andlow-cost source of funding. Even if we are able to match our competitors’ pricing, doing so may result in an increase in our funding costs, which may have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
While our banking subsidiaries generally have not faced, and currently are not facing, liquidity difficulties in any material respect, if we or our banking subsidiaries are unable to obtain the funding we need on terms commercially acceptable to us for an extended period of time for reasons of Won devaluation or otherwise, we may not be able to ensure our financial viability, meet regulatory requirements, implement our strategies or compete effectively. See “Item 3.D. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Overall Business — Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, bond and equity prices, and other market factors have affected and will continue to affect our business.business, results of operations and financial condition.”
As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019,W6,4435,639 billion,W6,4805,645 billion andW5,6566,015 billion, or 3.3%2.3%, 3.0%2.2% and 2.5%2.1%, respectively, of Shinhan Bank’s total deposits in Korean Won were deposits made by litigants in connection with legal proceedings in Korean courts. Court deposits carry interest rates which are generally lower than market rates.
In addition, we obtain funding through borrowings and the issuances of debt and equity securities, primarily through Shinhan Bank. Our borrowings consist mainly of borrowings from financial institutions, the Korean governmentGovernment and Korean government-affiliatedGovernment-affiliated funds. Call money, which is available in both Won and foreign currencies, is obtained from the domestic call loan market, a short-term loan market for loans with maturities of less than one month. As for our long-term debt, it is principally in the form of corporate debt securities issued by Shinhan Bank. Since 1999, Shinhan Bank has actively issued and continues to issue long-term debt securities with maturities of over one year in the Korean fixed-income market. Shinhan Bank and we have maintained one of the highest credit ratings in the domestic fixed-income market since their inception in 1999 and 2001, respectively. As Shinhan Bank maintains one of the highest debt ratings in the fixed-income market in Korea, we believe that Shinhan Bank will be able to obtain replacement funding through the issuance of long-term debt securities. Shinhan Bank’s interest rates on long-term debt securities are in general 20 to 30 basis points higher than the interest rates offered on their deposits. However, since long-term debt is not subject to premiums paid for deposit insurance and the Bank of Korea reserves, we estimate that our funding costs on long-term debt securities are generally on par with our funding costs on deposits. In addition, we,our company, as well as Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Card, may also issue long-term debt securities denominated in foreign currencies in overseas markets,markets. Our company and Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Cardeach have a global medium term notes programsprogram under which foreign currency-denominated notes may be issued with an aggregate program limit of US$8 billion.5 billion and US$6 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, our long-term debt amounted toW37,93653,140 billion,W43,83460,753 billion andW48,08473,299 billion, respectively.
We also have funding requirements for our credit card activities. We obtain funding for our credit card activities from a variety of sources, primarily in Korea. The principal sources of funding for Shinhan Card are debentures, commercial papers (including call money), borrowings from the holding company and third-parties,
which amounted toW12,98518,645 billion,W7101,560 billion,W4501,463 billion andW230292 billion, or 90.3%84.9%, 4.9%,3.1% 7.1%, 6.7%
and 1.6%1.3%, respectively, of the funding for our credit card activities, as of December 31, 2016.2019. Unlike other credit card companies, Shinhan Card has the benefit of obtaining funding at favorable rates through loans from Shinhan Financial Group, which currently maintains the highest credit rating assigned by local rating agencies. Shinhan Card aims to further diversify its funding sources and more actively tap the domestic and international capital markets to ensure access to liquidity as needed.
Credit ratings affect the cost and other terms upon which we and our subsidiaries are able to obtain funding. Domestic and international rating agencies regularly evaluate us, and our subsidiaries and their ratings of our and our subsidiaries’ long-term debt are based on a number of factors, including our financial strength as well as conditions affecting the financial services industry generally.
Our holding company does not receive credit ratings from international rating agencies since it has not engaged in debt financing from overseas sources to date.
There can be no assurance that we or our subsidiaries will maintain our current credit ratings if, among other reasons, the global or Korean economy were to face another downturn, there are any changes in our corporate governance or our businesses significantly deteriorate. Our failure to maintain current credit ratings and outlooks could increase the cost of our funding, limit our access to capital markets and other borrowings, and require us to post additional collateral in financial transactions, any of which could adversely affect our liquidity, net interest margins and profitability.
Secondary funding sources also include call money, borrowings from the Bank of Korea and other short-term borrowings which amounted toW16,92418,145 billion,W14,17925,639 billion andW14,94529,002 billion, as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, respectively, each representing 6.3%5.3%, 4.8%6.9% and 4.7%6.9%, respectively, of our total funding as of such dates.
We may also from time to time obtain funding through issuance of equity securities. For example, in the first quarter of 2009, we conducted a rights offering in the face of an expanding global credit crisis in order to enhance our capital position to prepare for potential contingencies, despite having fully met the required capital adequacy ratios required under applicable laws and regulations and not facing any significant liquidity constraints or financial distress. As a result of such offering, which was substantially fully subscribed and resulted in a capital increase of approximately 16.4%, we raised approximatelyW1,310 billion (before underwriting commissions and other offering expenses).
In limited situations, we may also issue convertible and/or preferred shares. For example, in August 2003, in order to partly fund our acquisition of Chohung Bank, we raised a total ofW2,552 billion through domestic private placements of redeemable preferred shares and redeemable convertible preferred shares to domestic financial institutions and governmental entities in Korea, all of which shares have since been redeemed or converted. In addition, in January 2007, partly to fund the acquisition of LG Card, we raised a total ofW3,750 billion through domestic private placements of redeemable preferred shares and redeemable convertible preferred shares, all of which have been redeemed as of the date hereof. In April 2011, we issued redeemable preferred shares to fund redemption of such securities, and in April 2016, we redeemed the redeemable preferred shares issued in April 2011. Since April 2016,In February 2019, we have not issued additionalraised a total ofW750 billion through domestic private placements of convertible preferred shares. For further details of our preferred shares, see “Item 10.B. Memorandum and Articles of Incorporation — Description of Preferred Stock.”
Pursuant to laws and regulations in Korea, we may redeem our preferred stock to the extent of our retained earnings of the previous fiscal year, net of certain reserves. At this time, we expect that cash from our future operations would be adequate to provide us with sufficient capital resources to enable us to redeem our preferred stock on or prior to their scheduled maturities. In the event there is a short-term shortage of liquidity to make the required cash payments for redemption as a result of, among other things, failure to receive dividend payments from our operating subsidiaries on time or as a result of significant expenditures resulting from future
acquisitions, we plan to raise cash liquidity through the issuance of long-term debt in the Korean fixed-income market in advance of the scheduled maturity on our preferred stock. To the extent we need to obtain additional liquidity, we plan to do so through the issuance of long-term corporate debentures or further preferred stock and/or the use of our other secondary funding sources.
We generally may not acquire our own shares except in certain limited circumstances such as a capital reduction. However, pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and regulations under the Financial Holding Companies Act, we may purchase our own shares on the KRX KOSPI Market of the Korea Exchange or through a tender offer, or retrieve our own shares from a trust company upon termination of a trust agreement subject to the restrictions that (1) the aggregate purchase price of such shares may not exceed the total amount available for distribution of dividends at the end of the preceding fiscal year less the amounts of dividends and reserves for such fiscal year, subtracted by the sum of (a) the purchase price of treasury stock acquired if any treasury stock has been purchased after the end of the preceding fiscal year pursuant to the Commercial Act or the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, (b) the amount subject to a trust contract, and (c) the amount of dividends approved at the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting after the end of the preceding fiscal year and the amount of retained earnings reserve required under the Commercial Act; plus if any treasury stock has been disposed of after the end of the preceding fiscal year, the acquisition cost of such treasury stock, and (2) the purchase of such shares shall meet the requisite ratio under the Financial Holding Companies Act and regulations thereunder. In addition, pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, in certain limited circumstances, dissenting holders of shares have the right to require us to purchase their shares.
Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Guarantees
In the ordinary course of our business, we have certain contractual cash obligations and commitments which extend for several years. As we are able to obtain liquidity and funding through various sources as described in “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” above, we do not believe that these contractual cash obligations and commitments will have a material effect on our liquidity or capital resources.

Commitments and Guarantees
In the normal course of business, our subsidiaries make various commitments and guarantees to meet the financing needs of our customers. Commitments and guarantees are usually in the form of, among others,
commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, standby letter of credit and performance guarantees. The contractual amount of these financial instruments represents the maximum possible loss amount if the
counterparty draws down the commitment or we should fulfill our obligation under the guarantee and the counterparty fails to perform under the contract. See “Item 4.B. Business Overview — Description of Assets and Liabilities — Credit-Related Commitments and Guarantees.”

Notes:
| (1) | Commitments to extend credit represent unfunded portions of authorizations to extend credit in the form of loans. The commitments expire on fixed dates and a customer is required to comply with predetermined conditions to draw funds under the commitments. Commitments to extend credit, including credit lines, are in general subject to provisions that allow us to withdraw such commitments in the event there are material adverse changes affecting an obligor. |
| (2) | Commercial letters of credit are undertakings on behalf of customers authorizing third parties to draw drafts on us up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions. These are generally short-term and collateralized by the underlying shipments of goods to which they relate. |
| (3) | Financial guarantees are contracts that require us to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee liabilities are recognized initially at their fair value, and the initial fair value is amortized over the life of the financial guarantee. The financial guarantee liability is subsequently carried at the higher of this amortized amount and the present value of any expected payment when a payment under the guarantee has become probable. Financial guarantees are included within other liabilities. |
| (4) | Performance guarantees are issued to guarantee customers’ tender bids on construction or similar projects or to guarantee completion of such projects in accordance with contractual terms. They are also issued to support a customer’s obligation to supply products, commodities, maintenance or other services to third |
| (5) | Liquidity facilities to SPEs represent irrevocable commitments to provide contingent credit lines including commercial paper purchase agreements to special purpose entities for which we serve as the administrator. |
| (6) | Acceptances represent guarantees by us to pay a bill of exchange drawn on a customer. We expect most acceptances to be presented, but reimbursement by the customer is normally immediate. |
| (7) | Endorsed bills represent notes transferred to third parties by us. We are obligated to fulfill the duty of payment if the person primarily liable does not honor the bill on the due date. |

| ITEM 6.B. | Compensation |
The aggregate remuneration andbenefits-in-kind paid by us to our chairman, our executive directors, ournon-executive directors and our executive officers for the year ended December 31, 20162019 wasW3.53.7 billion, consisting ofW2.22.8 billion in salaries and wages andW1.30.9 billion in bonus payments.
We do not have service contracts with any of our directors or executive officers providing for benefits upon termination of their employment with us. We do not pay any severance payment to our chairman or directors upon their retirement, but we pay fixed sums of severance payment to other members of senior management pursuant to internal guidelines on severance payments to members of senior management. In 2016,2019, we accruedW0.1 billion for retirement bonus.
Prior to April 1, 2010, we granted stock options to our chairman, our president and chief executive officer and other directors and executive officers. Effective April 1, 2010, we ceased granting stock options. On March 18, 2015, the exercise period for all outstanding stock options expired, except for a limited number of stock options for which exercise of such stock options (and hence the expiration of the exercise period has beenas well) were suspended by a resolution of the board of directors.directors in December 2010. In May 2017 and September 2017, by a resolution of the board of directors, we lifted such suspension for a portion of the stock options. As of December 31, 2019, we have no stock options that remain unexercisable. We did not record any accrued expense for stock options in 2016.2019.
During the period from March 20, 2007 to December 31, 2013, we granted “performance units” to certain high-ranking officers of select group companies. These performance units are performance-based cash compensation, theper-unit value of which is initially determined at the time of grant subject to adjustment after a fixed number of years based on the operating and financial performance of the relevant group company over the same or another fixed term, at the end of which a cash amount equal to the adjusted number of the performance units is paid out. For performance units granted prior to April 1, 2010, the performance review period was three years, and the payout was made at the end of the three-year term. For performance units granted on or after April 1, 2010 until December 31, 2013, the applicable performance review period is generally four years (and to a limited extent, five years), and the payment is made at the end of such four- or five-year term. We ceased granting performance units effectivesince January 1, 2014.
Since April 1, 2010, we have also granted “performance shares” to certain high-ranking officers of select group companies. The performance shares are conceptually similar to the performance units granted since April 1, 2010, in that the number of performance shares is based on the operating and financial performance of the relevant group company, except that the number of performance shares granted is adjusted on the basis of the movements in the market price of our shares. The aggregate amount of performance shares granted to a given grantee is generally equal to the expected incentive compensation payable to such grantee for three years (in the case of performance shares granted prior to January 1, 2014) and one year (in the case of performance shares granted since January 1, 2014) of service starting from the grant date, which initial amount is computed based on the expected performance of the grantee’s company and the expected price movements of our shares over the applicable adjustment period, which is generally four years (and to a limited extent, five years). The performance shares are paid out in cash at the end of the applicable adjustment period (even if employment is terminated prior to such date), and the grantee is contractually and in accordance with our internal regulations required to use the payout solely to purchase our shares in the market at the then-prevailing market price (in the case of performance shares granted prior to January 1, 2014).
Neither performance units nor performance shares have been granted to outside directors. In 2016,2019, we recognized no accrued expenses for performance units andW2.610 billion as accrued expenses for performance shares.
Under the Financial Supervisory Service’s standards for preparing corporate disclosure forms, which standards were amended in December 2016, we are required to disclose in our Korean annual report the individual annual compensation (including stock options) paid by us to our directors and statutory auditors if the individual annual compensation for such persons isW500 million or greater.
In 2016, Han Dongwoo,2019, Cho Yong-byoung, our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, receivedW1,5721,260 million, consisting ofW733 million in salaries salary and wages andW839 million in bonuses. Such bonuses includeW236 million in long-term performance compensation and an additional cash amount ofW204 million in respect of 4,996 performance shares, which were initially granted in 2011 as performance-based compensation for the three-year period from 2011 to 2013, subject to our business performance and share price movements from 2011 to 2015.wages. In addition, in 2014, 2015 and 2016,2019 Mr. HanCho was granted 19,500, 18,900 and 22,00022,178 performance shares, respectively.shares.

In addition, we had six, seven and five sevennon-regular employees at the holding company level as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, respectively, and 1,944, 1,8331,540, 1,490 and 1,693 2,190non-regular employees at the subsidiary level as of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, respectively.

Under Korean law, we may not terminate full time employees except under limited circumstances.
Since our acquisition of Chohung Bank in 2003, we have not experienced any general employee work stoppages and consider our employee relations to be good.
Under the Korean National Pension Law, we annually contribute an amount equal to 4.5% of employee wages, and each employee contributes 4.5% of his or her wages, to the National Pension Management Corporation. In addition, pursuant to the Employee Retirement Security Act, we operate a retirement pension
system under which we make annual contributions to pension funds managed by financial institutions (which replaced our former retirement pension system under which we managed the pension fundin-house) that provide employees both regular pension payments and a lump sum payment upon termination of employment. We believe that our retirement pension system confers the following benefits: (1) insulation of employees from the risk of default on their pension payments as the pension funds are deposited with large financial institutions; (2) offer of varied forms of payment, i.e., regular pension payments and a lump sum payment, upon termination of employment; (3) offer to employees the option to make investment decisions for his or her individual pension account and (4) elimination of the ability of employees to cash in his or her retirement fund prematurely, thereby guaranteeing such employee a lump sum payment upon termination of employment. Under this retirement pension system, we and our subsidiaries can opt for either a defined benefit plan or a defined contribution plan, or a combination of both. Under the defined benefit plan, the amount of pension payable upon an employee’s
retirement is fixed in advance, and the employer is responsible for making the requisite payments to the pension fund and making investment decisions in relation to the fund assets. Under the defined contribution plan, the employee sets aside a fixed percentage or amount of his salaries to the pension fund and exercises investment decisions for his or her individual pension account. As of December 31, 2014, 20152017, 2018 and 2016,2019, we recognized liabilities for defined benefit obligations ofW3097 billion,W226127 billion andW131119 billion, respectively. See Note 2625 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

From October 2013 to November 2014, the Financial Supervisory Service also conducted a series of special audits of Shinhan Bank as to incidents of alleged illegal monitoring of customer accounts, and in February 2014, the Prosecutors’ Office in Korea also commenced an investigation of Shinhan Bank with respect to same.due diligence. In December 2015,2019, the Financial Supervisory Service notified Shinhan Bank of an institutional caution and imposed disciplinary actions against two former Shinhan Bank officers after finding that Shinhan Bank had illegally monitored customer accounts, whereas in April 2016, the Prosecutors’ Office determined not to prosecute the former officers of Shinhan Bank because of insufficient evidence. In addition, the Financial Supervisory Service conducted a periodic audit of Shinhan Bank from April to May 2015 and notified Shinhan Bank of five items requiring management’s attention and three items for improvement in June 2016 in connection with such audit.
The Financial Supervisory Service also conducted a special audit of Shinhan Card, together with BC Card and KB Kookmin Card, from June to July 2013, in relation to alleged imperfect sales of insurance products, and
in March 2014, issued an institutional warning against each of the three credit card companies based on a finding that card customers were provided inadequate or misleading disclosures regarding the risks relating to such products at the time of sale.

It has been reported in the press that certain employees of Shinhan Bank have been indicted by the Prosecutors’ Office for allegedly illegally influencing the hiring process of new employees and manipulating hiring standards for certain candidates. As of the date hereof, six current and former employees of Shinhan Bank, each of whom had occupied positions within Shinhan Bank’s recruiting department between 2013 and 2016, have been indicted for alleged illegal hiring activities while they occupied such positions at Shinhan Bank. In addition to these employees, on September 17, 2018, the Prosecutors’ Office also indicted our current Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who previously served as Shinhan Bank’s president, chief executive officer and executive director from March 2015 through March 2017, for alleged illegal hiring activities while he occupied such position at Shinhan Bank.

No date has been set for the higher court proceedings. We believe that we have robust and fair internal procedures for hiring new employees.

In August 2019, the Financial Supervisory Service launched an investigation into Lime Asset Management Co., Ltd. (“Lime Asset”), Korea’s largest hedge fund managing approximatelyW4.1 trillion in assets as of December 31, 2019, including with regards to allegations that Lime Asset had concealed the fact that it had changed the multi-manager trade finance fund’s investment method and concealed losses in their trade finance funds. Beginning in October 2019, Lime Asset suspended withdrawals from certain of its funds, freezing approximatelyW1.7 trillion in total as of the end of 2019, according to the Financial Supervisory Service. According to Financial Supervisory Service investigations, Lime Asset’sW600 billion trade finance fund was found to have been associated with a debacle involving the International Investment Group LLC (“IIG”), a New York-based investment adviser charged with securities fraud and running a Ponzi scheme. On November 26, 2019, the SEC revoked the registration of IIG for allegedly overvaluing defaulted loans in the fund’s portfolio to conceal losses in its flagship hedge fund and selling at least $60 million in relationfake loan assets to clients. According to the Financial Supervisory Service, Lime Asset signed a contract with a Singaporean commodity trader, which took over Lime Asset’s ownership stake in an IIG fund at a discounted price in June 2019, with the Singaporean entity issuing promissory notes to Lime Asset, and Lime Asset did not properly disclose to its investors such change in the fund’s investment target from the IIG fund to promissory notes. Certain investors in funds of Lime Asset have filed dispute mediation claims to the Financial Supervisory Service and criminal and civil claims against Lime Asset, as well as against financial institutions that have sold such products, claiming they learned of the change in the trade finance fund’s investment method and losses only in October 2019 and that they were also misguided and not fully informed of the risks associated with these funds when investing in such products. The Financial Supervisory Service is continuing investigations into Lime Asset as well as financial institutions that have sold Lime Asset products, including Shinhan Bank and Shinhan Investment. According to the Financial Supervisory Service, as of December 31, 2019, the total amount of troubled funds sold through Korean financial institutions is approximatelyW1.67 trillion, of which Shinhan Bank sold 478 accounts in the amount of approximatelyW277 billion and Shinhan Investment sold 395 accounts in the amount of approximatelyW325 billion. In addition, in February 2020, the Prosecutors’ Office of Korea announced that they have launched an investigation into Lime Asset as well as Shinhan Investment Corp. in connection with this matter. In March 2020, the Prosecutors’ Office sought an arrest warrant for a former case.employee of Shinhan Investment Corp. for allegedly conspiring to conceal from investors Lime Asset’s losses and change in investment target. The former employee was arrested on April 10, 2020. We have cooperated with the Financial Supervisory Service’s investigations, including responding to Financial Supervisory Service requests during a comprehensive audit in November and December 2019.
OurAs of the date hereof, our management believes that these lawsuitsproceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, equity or results of operations. However, although we plan to rigorously defend our positions in the lawsuits or other regulatory proceedings against us, it is difficult to predict the final outcome of these proceedings and the potential impact these proceedings and related events may have on our financial
condition, equity or results of operations. The total amount in dispute may increase during the course of litigation, and other lawsuits may be brought against us based on similar allegations. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that these proceedings and related events will not have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For further details of these and other litigations, see Note 4446 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

The Korea Exchange
Pursuant to the Korea Stock and Futures Exchange Act, as of January 27, 2005, the Korea Stock Exchange, which began its operations in 1956, the KRX KOSDAQ, which began its operation inon July 1, 1996, and the Korea Futures Exchange (as an exchange operating futures market and options market), which began its operation inon February 1, 1999, were unified to form the Korea Exchange.
The Korea Exchange was established in a form of a limited liability stock company in accordance with the Korean Commercial Code with the minimumpaid-in capital ofW100 billion in accordance with the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. Historically, the Korea Exchange was the only exchange authorized under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. On May 28, 2013, however, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act was amended to implement a license system under which a license may be granted to an exchange upon satisfaction of certain requirements. In addition, the Financial Services Commission has authorized the establishment of alternative trading systems that engage in the trading of listed beneficial certificates, among other things, for a multiple number of parties through electronic means. Notwithstanding the foregoing regulatory developments, the Korea Exchange is presently the only duly licensed exchange in Korea and there have been no definitive developments regarding newly licensed exchanges or alternative trading systems in Korea. The Korea Exchange operates and supervises four market divisions, the KRX KOSPI Market Division, the KRX KOSDAQ Market Division, the KRX Futures Market Division and the KRX KONEX Market Division. It has its principal office in Busan.
As of December 31, 2016,2019, the aggregate market value of equity securities listed on the KOSPI was approximatelyW1,308.41,475.9 trillion. The average daily trading volume of equity securities for 20162019 was approximately 376.8470.7 million shares with an average transaction value ofW4,523.04,989.8 billion.
Even though the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act prescribed that the Korea Exchange be established in a form of a limited liability stock company, the Korea Exchange is expected to play a public role as a public organization. In order to safeguard against a possible conflict, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act has placed restrictions on the ownership and operation of the Korea Exchange and any newly established exchanges approved by the Financial Services Commission as follows:
Any person’s ownership of shares in the Korea Exchange is limited to 5% or less except for an investment trust company or investment company established under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, or the Korean government.Government. However, more than 5% ownership in Korea Exchange is permitted if necessary for forming a strategic alliance with a foreign stock or futures exchange and such amount of ownership is approved by the Financial Services Commission on grounds that such ownership may contribute to the efficiency and soundness of capital markets and the distribution of shares held by shareholders;
such amount of ownership is approved by the Financial Services Commission on grounds that such ownership may contribute to the efficiency and soundness of capital markets and the distribution of shares held by shareholders; |
The number of outside directors on the board of directors of the Korea Exchange shall be more than half of the total number of directors;
Any amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, transfer or consolidation of business, spin off, stock swap in its entirety or transfer of shares in its entirety of the Korea Exchange will receive prior approval from the Financial Services Commission; and
In the event the Financial Services Commission determines that the chief executive officer of the Korea Exchange is not appropriate for the position, the Financial Services Commission can request the Korea Exchange upon reasonable cause, within one month from the chief executive officer’s election, to dismiss the chief executive officer. Subsequently, the chief executive officer will be suspended from performing his duties and the Korea Exchange will elect a new chief executive officer within two months from the request.
The Korea Exchange has the power in some circumstances to suspend trading in the shares of a given company or tode-list a security. The Korea Exchange also restricts share price movements. All listed companies are required to file accounting reports annually, semiannually and quarterly and to release immediately all information that may affect trading in a security.
The Government has in the past exerted, and continues to exert, substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector of the Korean economy and its actions may depress or boost the stock market. In the past, the Government has informally both encouraged and restricted the declaration and payment of dividends, induced mergers to reduce what it considers excess capacity in a particular industry and induced private companies to offer publicly their securities.
The Korea Exchange publishes the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (“KOSPI”) every ten seconds, which is an index of all equity securities listed on the Korea Exchange. Historical movements in KOSPI are set out in the following.

Note:
| (1) | The figures represent the daily closing price of the first trading day of the respective year. |
Shares are quoted “ex-dividend”“ex-dividend” on the first trading day of the relevant company’s accounting period. “Ex-dividend”“Ex-dividend” refers to a share no longer carrying the right to receive the following dividend payment because the settlement date occurs after the record date for determining which shareholders are entitled to receive dividends. “Ex-rights”“Ex-rights” refers to shares no longer carrying the right to participate in the following rights offering or bonus issuance because the settlement date occurs after the record date for determining which shareholders are entitled to new shares. The calendar year is the accounting period for the majority of listed companies, this may account for the drop in KOSPI between its closing level at the end of one calendar year and its opening level at the beginning of the following calendar year.
With certain exceptions, principally to take account of a share being quoted “ex-dividend”“ex-dividend” and “ex-rights,“ex-rights,” permitted upward and downward movements in share prices of any category of shares on any day are limited under the rules of the Korea Exchange to 30% of the previous day’s closing price of the shares, rounded down as set out below:
Previous Day’s Closing Price | Rounded Down to Won | |||
Less than 1,000 | 1 | |||
1,000 to less than 5,000 | 5 | |||
5,000 to less than 10,000 | 10 | |||
10,000 to less than 50,000 | 50 | |||
50,000 to less than 100,000 | 100 | |||
100,000 to less than 500,000 | 500 | |||
500,000 or more | 1,000 | |||
As a consequence, if a particular closing price is the same as the price set by the fluctuation limit, the closing price may not reflect the price at which persons would have been prepared, or would be prepared to continue, if so permitted, to buy and sell shares. Orders are executed on an auction system with priority rules to deal with competing bids and offers.
Due to deregulation of restrictions on brokerage commission rates, the brokerage commission rate on equity securities transactions may be determined by the parties, subject to commission schedules being filed with the Korea Exchange by the financial investment companies with brokerage licenses. In addition, a securities transaction tax of 0.15% of the sales price will generally be imposed on the transfer of shares or certain securities representing rights to subscribe for shares on the Korea Exchange. A special agricultural and fishery tax of 0.15% of the sales prices will also be imposed on transfer of these shares and securities on the Korea Exchange. See “Item 10.E. Taxation — Korean Taxation.”

The Korean securities markets are principally regulated by the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. The law imposes restrictions on insider trading and price manipulation, requires specified information to be made available by listed companies to investors and establishes rules regarding margin trading, proxy solicitation, takeover bids, acquisition of treasury shares and reporting requirements for shareholders holding substantial interests.
Protection of Customer’s Interest in Case of Insolvency of Financial Investment Companies
Under Korean law, the relationship between a customer and a financial investment company in connection with a securities sell or buy order is deemed to be consignment and the securities acquired by a consignment agent (i.e., the securities company) through such sell or buy order are regarded as belonging to the customer in so far as the customer and the consignment agent’s creditors are concerned. Therefore, in the event of a bankruptcy or reorganization procedure involving a financial investment company, the customer of the financial investment company is entitled to the proceeds of the securities sold by the financial investment company. In addition, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act recognizes the ownership of a customer in securities held by a financial investment company in such customer’s account.
When a customer places a sell order with a financial investment company which is not a member of the Korea Exchange and this financial investment company places a sell order with another financial investment company which is a member of the Korea Exchange, the customer is still entitled to the proceeds of the securities sold received by thenon-member company from the member company regardless of the bankruptcy or reorganization of thenon-member company. Likewise, when a customer places a buy order with anon-member company and thenon-member company places a buy order with a member company, the customer has the legal right to the securities received by thenon-member company from the member company because the purchased securities are regarded as belonging to the customer in so far as the customer and thenon-member company’s creditors are concerned.
In addition, under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, the Korea Exchange is obliged to indemnify any loss or damage incurred by a counterparty as a result of a breach by its members. If a financial investment company which is a member of the Korea Exchange breaches its obligation in connection with a buy order, the Korea Exchange is obliged to pay the purchase price on behalf of the breaching member. Therefore, the customer can acquire the securities that have been ordered to be purchased by the breaching member.
As the cash deposited with a financial investment company is regarded as belonging to the financial investment company, which is liable to return the same at the request of its customer, the customer cannot take back deposited cash from the financial investment company if a bankruptcy or reorganization procedure is instituted against the financial investment company and, therefore, can suffer from loss or damage as a result. However, the Depositor Protection Act provides that the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation will, upon the request of the investors, pay each investor up toW50 million per financial institution in case of the financial investment company’s bankruptcy, liquidation, cancellation of securities business license or other insolvency events. The premiums related to this insurance are paid by financial investment companies. Pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, a financial investment company with a dealing or brokerage license is required to deposit the cash received from its customers with the Korea Securities Finance Corporation, a special entity established pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act.Set-off or attachment of cash deposits by securities companies with the Korea Securities Finance Corporation is prohibited. In addition, in the event of bankruptcy or dissolution of the financial investment company, the cash so deposited shall be withdrawn and paid to the customer prior to payment to other creditors of the financial investment company.
Restrictions Applicable to ADSs
No Korean governmental approval is necessary for the sale and purchase of our ADSs in the secondary market outside Korea or for the withdrawal of shares of our common stock underlying the ADSs and the delivery inside Korea of shares in connection with the withdrawal, provided that a foreigner who intends to acquire the shares must obtain an investment registration card from the Financial Supervisory Service as described below. The acquisition of the shares by a foreigner must be immediately reported to the governor of the Financial Services Commission, either by the foreigner or by his standing proxy in Korea.
Persons who have acquired shares of our common stock as a result of the withdrawal of shares underlying our ADSs may exercise their preemptive rights for new shares, participate in free distributions and receive dividends on shares without any further Korean governmental approval.
Under current Korean laws and regulations, the depositary is required to obtain our prior consent for the number of shares of our common stock to be deposited in any given proposed deposit that exceeds the difference between:
| (1) | the aggregate number of shares of our common stock deposited by us for the issuance of our ADSs (including deposits in connection with the initial issuance and all subsequent offerings of our ADSs and stock dividends or other distributions related to these ADSs); and |
| (2) | the number of shares of our common stock on deposit with the depositary at the time of such proposed deposit. We have agreed to grant such consent to the extent that the total number of shares on deposit with the depositary would not exceed 40,432,628 at any time. |
Reporting Requirements for Holders of Substantial Interests
Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, any person whose direct or beneficial ownership of our common stock with voting rights, whether in the form of shares of common stock or ADSs, certificates representing the rights to subscribe for shares and equity-related debt securities including convertible bonds and bonds with warrants (which we refer to collectively as “Equity Securities”), together with the Equity Securities beneficially owned by certain related persons or by any person acting in concert with the person, accounts for 5% or more of the total outstanding shares (including Equity Securities of us held by such persons) is required to report the status of the holdings and the purpose of the holdings (for example, whether intending to seek management control) to the Financial Services Commission and the Korea Exchange within five business days after reaching the 5% ownership level. In addition, any change in the ownership interest subsequent to the report that equals or exceeds 1% of the total outstanding Equity Securities or change in the purpose of the
holdings is required to be reported to the Financial Services Commission and the Korea Exchange within five business days from the date of the change (within ten10 days of the end of the month in which the change occurred, in the case of a person with no intent to seek management control and within ten10 days of the end of the quarter in which the change occurred, in the case of an institutional investor prescribed by the Financial Services Commission).
Violation of these reporting requirements may subject a person to criminal sanctions such as administrative sanctions, fines, imprisonment and/or a loss of voting rights with respect to the portion of ownership of Equity Securities exceeding 5% of the total outstanding shares. In addition, the Financial Services Commission may order the disposal of the unreported Equity Securities. Any persons who reports management control as the purpose for its holdings is prohibited from acquiring additional shares or from exercising voting rights during the following five days following the reporting date.
In addition to the reporting requirements described above, any person whose direct or beneficial ownership of our stock accounts for 10% or more of the total issued and outstanding shares (which we refer to as a “major stockholder”) must report the status of his/her shareholding to the Korea Securities Futures Commission and the
Korea Exchange within five days after he/she becomes a major stockholder. In addition, any change in the ownership interest subsequent to the report must be reported to the Korea Securities Futures Commission and the Korea Exchange within five days after the change occurred, provided that the obligation to report such change shall be exempt if the number shares that changed in ownership is less than 1,000 shares and the aggregate amount of such shares that changed in ownership is less thanW10 million.

Any single stockholder or persons who have a special relationship with such stockholder that jointly acquire more than 10% (4% in case ofnon-financial business group companies) of the voting stock of a Korean financial holding company who controls national banks will be subject to reporting or approval requirements pursuant to the Financial Holding Company Act. See “Item 4.B. Business Overview — Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Restrictions on Financial Holding Company Ownership.”
Restrictions Applicable to Shares
Under the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws and Financial Services Commission regulations, as amended (collectively, the “Investment Rules”), foreigners may invest, with limited exceptions and subject to procedural requirements, in all shares of Korean companies, whether listed on the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or on the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, unless prohibited by specific laws. Foreign investors may trade shares listed on the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or on the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange only through the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, except in limited circumstances, including:
odd-lot trading of shares;
acquisition of shares (which we refer to as “Converted Shares”) by exercise of warrants, conversion rights or exchange rights under bonds with warrants, convertible bonds or exchangeable bonds or withdrawal rights under depositary receipts issued outside of Korea by a Korean company;
acquisition of shares as a result of inheritance, donation, bequest or exercise of stockholders’ rights, including preemptive rights or rights to participate in free distributions and receive dividends;
over-the-counter transactions between foreigners of a class of shares for which the ceiling on aggregate acquisition by foreigners, as explained below, has been reached or exceeded subject to certain exceptions; and
sale and purchase of shares at fair value between foreigners who are part of an investor group comprised of foreign companies investing under the control of a common investment manager pursuant to applicable laws or contract.
Forover-the-counter transactions of shares between foreigners outside the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange for shares with respect to which the limit on aggregate foreign ownership has been reached or exceeded, a securities company licensed in Korea must act as an intermediary.Odd-lot trading of shares outside the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange must involve a licensed securities company in Korea as the other party. Foreign investors are prohibited from engaging in margin transactions with respect to shares that are subject to a foreign ownership limit.
The Investment Rules require a foreign investor who wishes to invest in shares on the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange (including Converted Shares and shares being issued for initial listing on the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or on KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange) to register its identity with the Financial Supervisory Service prior to making any such investment. The registration requirement does not, however, apply to foreign investors who acquire Converted Shares with the intention of selling such Converted Shares within three months from the date of acquisition. Upon registration, the Financial Supervisory Service will issue to the foreign investor an
investment registration card, which must be presented each time the foreign investor opens a brokerage account with a securities company. Foreigners eligible to obtain an investment registration card include foreign nationals who have not been residing in Korea for a consecutive period of six months or more, foreign governments, foreign municipal authorities, foreign public institutions, international financial institutions or similar international organizations, corporations incorporated under foreign laws and any person in any additional category designated by decree of the Ministry of Strategy and Finance under the Korean Securities and Exchange Act. All Korean offices of a foreign corporation as a group are treated as a separate foreigner from the offices of the corporation outside Korea for the purpose of investment registration. However, a foreign corporation or depositary issuing depositary receipts may obtain one or more investment registration cards in its name in certain circumstances as described in the relevant regulations.
Upon a foreign investor’s purchase of shares through the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, no separate report by the investor is required because the investment registration card system is designed to control and oversee foreign investment through a computer system. However, a foreign investor’s acquisition or sale of shares outside the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange (as discussed above) must be reported by the foreign investor or his standing proxy to the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service at the time of each such acquisition or sale. A foreign investor must ensure that any acquisition or sale by it of shares outside the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange in the case of trades in connection with a tender offer,odd-lot trading of shares, trades of a class of shares for which the aggregate foreign ownership limit has been reached or exceeded, is reported to the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service by himself or his standing proxy, or, in the case of sale and purchase of shares at fair value between foreigners, who are part of an investor group comprised of foreign companies investing under the control of a common investment manager pursuant to applicable laws or contract. A foreign investor may appoint a standing proxy from among the Korea Securities Depository, foreign exchange banks (including domestic branches of foreign banks), securities companies (including domestic branches of foreign securities companies), asset management companies, futures trading companies and internationally recognized custodians which will act as a standing proxy to exercise stockholders’ rights or perform any matters related to the foregoing activities if the foreign investor does not perform these activities himself. Generally, a foreign investor may not permit any person, other than its standing proxy, to exercise rights relating to his shares or perform any tasks related thereto on his behalf. However, a foreign investor may be exempted from complying with these standing proxy rules with the approval of the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service in cases deemed inevitable by reason of conflict between laws of Korea and the home country of the foreign investor.
Certificates evidencing shares of Korean companies must be kept in custody with an eligible custodian in Korea. Only foreign exchange banks (including domestic branches of foreign banks), securities companies (including domestic branches of foreign securities companies), the Korea Securities Depository, asset
management companies, futures trading companies and internationally recognized custodians are eligible to act as a custodian of shares for anon-resident or foreign investor. A foreign investor must ensure that his custodian deposits his shares with the Korea Securities Depository. However, a foreign investor may be exempted from complying with this deposit requirement with the approval of the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service in circumstances where compliance with that requirement is made impracticable, including cases where compliance would contravene the laws of the home country of such foreign investor.
Under the Investment Rules, with certain exceptions, foreign investors may acquire shares of a Korean company without being subject to any foreign investment ceiling. As one such exception, designated public corporations are subject to a 40% ceiling on the acquisition of shares by foreigners in the aggregate. Designated public corporations may set a ceiling on the acquisition of shares by a single person in their articles of incorporation. Furthermore, an investment by a foreign investor in 10% or more of the issued and outstanding shares with voting rights of a Korean company is defined as a foreign direct investment under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act of Korea. Generally, a foreign direct investment must be reported to the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy of Korea. The acquisition of shares of a Korean company by a foreign investor
may also be subject to certain foreign or other shareholding restrictions in the event that the restrictions are prescribed in a specific law that regulates the business of the Korean company. For a description of such restrictions applicable to Korean banks, see “Item 4.B. Business Overview — Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Banks — Restrictions on Bank Ownership.”

See “— Description of Preferred Stock.” There are no preferred shares authorized, issued or outstanding as of the date hereof.
All of the issued and outstanding shares are fully-paid andnon-assessable, and are in registered form. As of the date hereof,March 31, 2020, our authorized but unissued share capital consists of 373,684,849was 347,969,943 shares. We may issue the unissued shares without further shareholder approval but subject to a board resolution as provided in the Articles of Incorporation. See “— Distribution of Free Shares.” Share certificates are issued in denominations of one, five, ten, 50, 100, 500, 1,000 and 10,000 shares. The par value of our common shares per share isW5,000.
Dividends
Dividends are distributed to shareholders in proportion to the number of shares of the relevant class of capital stock owned by each shareholder following approval by the shareholders at an annual general meeting of shareholders. We pay full annual dividends on newly issued shares (such as the common shares representing the American depositary shares (“ADSs”)) for the year in which the new shares are issued. We declare our dividend annually at the annual general meeting of shareholders which is held within three months after the end of the fiscal year. Once declared, the annual dividend must be paid to the stockholders of record as of the end of the preceding fiscal year within one month after the annual general meeting unless otherwise resolved thereby. Annual dividends may be distributed either in (i) cash or (ii) shares provided that shares must be distributed at par value and, if the market price of the shares is less than their par value, dividends in shares may not exceedone-half of the total annual dividends (including dividends in shares). In addition to the annual dividend, we may also distribute cash dividends to the stockholders of record as of the end of March, June and September of each year upon a resolution by the board of directors. Under the Korean Commercial Code we do not have an obligation to pay any annual dividend unclaimed for five years from the scheduled payment date.
In addition, under the Korean Commercial Code and our Articles of Incorporation, we may pay interim dividends once during each fiscal year (in addition to the annual dividends). Interim dividends may be paid upon the resolution of the board of directors and are not subject to shareholder approval. The interim dividends, if any, will be paid to the shareholders of record at 12:00 a.m. midnight, July 1 of the relevant fiscal year in cash. Under
the Korean Commercial Code, an interim dividend may not be more than the net assets on the balance sheet of the immediately preceding fiscal period, after deducting (i) the capital of the immediately preceding fiscal period, (ii) the sum of the capital reserve and legal reserve accumulated up to the immediately preceding fiscal period, (iii) the amount of earnings for dividend payment approved at the general shareholders’ meeting of the immediately preceding fiscal period, (iv) other special reserves accumulated up to the immediately preceding fiscal period, either pursuant to the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation or to the resolution of the general meeting of shareholders, and (v) amount of legal reserve that should be set aside for the current fiscal period following the interim dividend payment.
Under the Financial Holding Companies Act and the regulations thereunder, a financial holding company may not pay an annual dividend unless it has set aside as its legal reserve an amount equal to at leastone-tenth of its net income after tax and shall set aside such amount as its legal reserve until its legal reserve reaches at least the aggregate amount of its stated capital.
Other than as set forth above and the dividend rights granted to preferred shareholders as further described in “— Description of Preferred Stock,” our articles of incorporation do not provide special rights to our common or preferred shareholders to share in our profits. For information regarding Korean taxes on dividends, see “—“Item 10.E. Taxation — Korean Taxation.”
Distribution of Free Shares
In addition to permitting dividends in the form of shares to be paid out of retained or current earnings, the Korean Commercial Code permits a company to distribute to its shareholders, in the form of free shares, an amount transferred from the capital surplus or legal reserve to stated capital. These free shares must be distributed to all of the shareholders pro rata. Our Articles of Incorporation require the same types of preferred shares to be distributed to the holders of preferred shares in case of distribution of free shares. For information regarding the treatment under Korean tax laws of free share distributions, see “Item 10.E. Taxation — Korean Taxation — Taxation of Dividends on Shares of Common Stock or American Depositary Shares.”
Preemptive Rights and Issuance of Additional Shares
Unless otherwise provided in the Korean Commercial Code, a company may issue authorized but unissued shares at such times and upon such terms as the board of directors of the company may determine. The company must offer the new shares on uniform terms to all shareholders who have preemptive rights and who are listed on the shareholders’ register as of the record date. Our shareholders are entitled to subscribe for any newly issued shares in proportion to their existing shareholdings. However, as provided in the Articles of Incorporation, we may issue new shares by resolution of board of directors to persons other than existing shareholders if those shares are (1) publicly offered (where the number of such shares so offered may not exceed 50% of our total number of issued and outstanding shares); (2) preferentially allocated to the members of the ESOA pursuant to relevant provisions of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act; (3) issued for the purpose of issuing depositary receipts pursuant to relevant provisions of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act (where the number of such shares so issued may not exceed 50% of our total number of issued and outstanding shares); (4) issued to directors or employees as a result of exercise of stock options we granted to them pursuant to the Korean Commercial Code; (5) issued to a financial investment company, a private equity fund or a special purpose company under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act; or (6) issued to any specified foreign investors, foreign or domestic financial institutions or alliance companies for operational needs such as introduction of advanced financial technology, improvement of its or subsidiaries’ financial structure and funding or strategic alliance (where such number of shares so issued may not exceed 50% of our total number of issued and outstanding shares). Under the Korean Commercial Code, a company may vary, without stockholders’ approval, the terms of such preemptive rights for different classes of shares. Public notice of the preemptive rights to new shares and the transferability thereof must be given not less than two weeks (excluding the period during which the shareholders’ register is closed) prior to the record date. We will
notify the shareholders who are entitled to subscribe for newly issued shares of the deadline for subscription at least two weeks prior to the deadline. If a shareholder fails to subscribe on or before such deadline, the shareholder’s preemptive rights will lapse. Our board of directors may determine how to distribute shares in respect of which preemptive rights have not been exercised or where fractions of shares occur. Underoccur.Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, if a listed company intends to issue new shares by way of allotment to shareholders, it must issue a certificate of preemptive right to the newly issued shares. Furthermore, the company must list the newly issued shares on the Korea Exchange for a certain period of time or designate a securities company to broker and/or deal in such newly issued shares in order to ensure that they are properly distributed. In the event certain shareholder forfeit their right to subscribe to newly issued shares, the company may allot the forfeited shares to a third party under certain conditions, including in relation to the purchase price of such shares, although in principle, the company must withdraw the forfeited shares. Under the Korean Commercial Code, when a company issues new shares by way of allotment to a third party, such company must notify its stockholders or make public notice of the conditions and other details of such new shares not less than two weeks prior to the relevant subscription payment date. Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, however, a listed company may substitute such notification or public notice by disclosing the material fact in a report publicly filed with the listing authorities.
Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, members of a company’s employee stock ownership association, whether or not they are shareholders, have a preemptive right, subject to certain
exceptions, to subscribe for up to 20% of the shares publicly offered pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act. However, this right is exercisable only to the extent that the total number of shares so acquired and held by such members does not exceed 20% of the total number of shares to be newly issued and shares then outstanding. As of December 31, 2016,2019, the employee stock ownership association owned 22,399,08424,252,302 shares, or 4.72%5.11%, of our common stock.
General Meeting of Shareholders
There are two types of general meetings of shareholders: annual general meetings and extraordinary general meetings. We are required to convene our annual general meeting within three months after the end of each fiscal year. Subject to a board resolution or court approval, an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders may be held when necessary or at the request of our Audit Committee. In addition, under the Korean Commercial Code, an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders may be held at the request of the shareholders holding shares for at least 6six months of an aggregate of 1.5% or more of the outstanding shares with voting rights of the listed company, subject to a board resolution or court approval. Furthermore, under the Act on the Corporate Governance of Financial Holding Companies Act of Korea and itssub-regulations, an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders may be held at the request of the shareholders holding shares for at least 6six months of an aggregate of 1.5% (0.75% in the case of a financial holding company (i) whose total assets at the end of the latest fiscal year isW5 trillion or more and (ii) who is in control of two or more subsidiaries, each with total assets ofW2 trillion or more) or more of the outstanding shares of the company, subject to a board resolution or court approval. Meeting agendas are determined by the board of directors or proposed by holders of an aggregate of 3% or more of the outstanding shares with voting rights by way of a written proposal to the board of directors at least six weeks prior to the meeting. In addition, under the Korean Commercial Code, the meeting agenda may be proposed by the shareholders holding shares for at least 6six months of an aggregate of 1% (0.5% in the case of a listed company whose capital at the end of the latest operating year isW100 billion or more) or more of the outstanding shares of the listed company. Furthermore, under the Act on the Corporate Governance of Financial Holding Companies Act,and itssub-regulations, the meeting agenda may be proposed by the shareholders holding shares for at least 6six months of an aggregate of 0.5% (0.25% in the case of a financial holding company (i) whose total assets at the end of the latest fiscal year isW5 trillion or more and (ii) who is in control of two or more subsidiaries, each with total assets ofW2 trillion or more) or more of the outstanding shares of the company.0.1%. Written notices stating the date, place and agenda of the meeting must be given to the shareholders at least two weeks prior to the date of the general meeting of shareholders; provided, that, notice may be given to holders of 1% or less of the total number of issued and outstanding shares which are entitled to vote, by placing at least two public notices at least two weeks in advance of the meeting in at least two daily newspapers or by using an electronic method defined under the Korean Commercial Code and related regulations at least two weeks in advance of the meeting. Currently, we useThe Korea Economic Daily
andMaeil Business Newspaperfor the publication of such notices. Shareholders who are not on the shareholders’ register as of the record date are not entitled to receive notice of the general meeting of shareholders, and they are not entitled to attend or vote at such meeting.
The general meeting of shareholders is held at our executive office (which is our registered executive office) or, if necessary, may be held anywhere in the vicinity of our executive office.
Voting Rights
Holders of common shares are entitled to one vote for each share. However, voting rights with respect to common shares that we hold and common shares that are held by a corporate shareholder, more thanone-tenth of the outstanding capital stock of which is directly or indirectly owned by us,such shareholder, may not be exercised. Unless stated otherwise in a company’s Articles of Incorporation, the Korean Commercial Code permits holders of an aggregate of 3% (1%, in case of a company whose total assets as at the end of the latest fiscal year isW2 trillion or more) or more of the outstanding shares with voting rights to request cumulative voting when electing two or more directors. Our Articles of Incorporation currently do not prohibit cumulative voting. In addition, under the Korean Commercial Code, in case of appointment of an audit committee member who is an outside director, any
shareholder holding more than 3% of the outstanding shares with voting rights shall not exercise its voting rights with respect to any portion of its shares exceeding the 3% limit; and in case of appointment of an audit committee member who is anon-outside director, the largest shareholder (together with certain related persons) holding more than 3% of the outstanding shares with voting rights shall not exercise its voting rights with respect to any portion of its shares exceeding the 3% limit.
The Korean Commercial Code and our Articles of Incorporation provide that an ordinary resolution may be adopted if approval is obtained from the holders of at least a majority of those common shares present or represented at such meeting and such majority also represents at leastone-fourth of the total of our issued and outstanding common shares. Holders ofnon-voting shares (other than enfranchisednon-voting shares) are not entitled to vote on any resolution or to receive notice of any general meeting of shareholders unless the agenda of the meeting includes consideration of a resolution on which such holders are entitled to vote. The Korean Commercial Code provides that a company’s articles of incorporation may prescribe conditions for enfranchisement ofnon-voting shares. For example, if our general shareholders’ meeting resolves not to pay to holders of preferred shares the annual dividend as determined by the board of directors at the time of issuance of such shares, the holders of preferred shares will be entitled to exercise voting rights from the general shareholders’ meeting immediately following the meeting adopting such resolution until the end of the meeting to declare to pay such dividend with respect to the preferred shares. Holders of such enfranchised preferred shares have the same rights as holders of common shares to request, receive notice of, attend and vote at a general meeting of shareholders.
The Korean Commercial Code provides that to amend the Articles of Incorporation (which is also required for any change to the authorized share capital of the company) and in certain other instances, including removal of a director of a company, dissolution, merger or consolidation of a company, transfer of the whole or a significant part of the business of a company, acquisition of all of the business of any other company or issuance of new shares at a price lower than their par value, a special resolution must be adopted by the approval of the holders of at leasttwo-thirds of those shares present or represented at such meeting and such special majority must also represent at leastone-third of the total issued and outstanding shares with voting rights of the company.
In addition, in the case of amendments to the Articles of Incorporation or any merger or consolidation of a company or in certain other cases which affect the rights or interest of the shareholders of the preferred shares, a resolution must be adopted by a separate meeting of shareholders of the preferred shares. Such a resolution may be adopted if the approval is obtained from shareholders of at leasttwo-thirds of the preferred shares present or represented at such meeting and such preferred shares also represent at leastone-third of the total issued and outstanding preferred shares of the company.
A shareholder may exercise his voting rights by proxy given to another shareholder. If a particular shareholder intends to obtain proxy from another shareholder, a reference document specified by the Financial Supervisory Service must be sent to the shareholder giving proxy, with a copy furnished to the company’s executive office or the branch office, transfer agent and the Financial Services Commission. The proxy must present the power of attorney prior to the start of the general meeting of shareholders.
Rights of Dissenting Shareholders
Pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, in certain limited circumstances (including, without limitation, if we transfer all or any significant part of our business or if we merge or consolidate with another company), dissenting holders of shares have the right to require us to purchase their shares. Pursuant to the Financial Holding Companies Act, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and the Korean Commercial Code, if a financial holding company acquires a new direct or indirect subsidiary through the exchange or transfer of shares except in limited circumstances, the dissenting holders of such shares have the right to require us to purchase their shares. To exercise such a right, shareholders must submit to us a written notice of their intention to dissent prior to the general meeting of shareholders. Within
20 days (or 10 days under certain circumstances according to the Financial Holding Companies Act) after the date on which the relevant resolution is passed at such meeting, such dissenting shareholders must request in writing that we purchase their shares. We are obligated to purchase the shares of dissenting shareholders within one month after the end of such request period at a price to be determined by negotiation between the shareholder and us. If we cannot agree on a price with the shareholder through such negotiations, the purchase price will be the arithmetic mean of (1) the weighted average of the daily closing share prices on the KRX KOSPI Market of the Korea Exchange for two months prior to the date of the adoption of the relevant board of directors’ resolution, (2) the weighted average of the daily closing share prices on the KRX KOSPI Market of the Korea Exchange for one month prior to the date of the adoption of the relevant board of directors’ resolution and (3) the weighted average of the daily closing share prices on the KRX KOSPI Market of the Korea Exchange for one week prior to the date of the adoption of the relevant board of directors’ resolution. If we or the dissenting shareholder who requested purchase of their shares do not accept such purchase price, we or the shareholder may request to the court to adjust such purchase price.
Register of Shareholders and Record Dates
We maintain the register of our shareholders at our transfer agent’s office in Seoul, Korea. The Korea Securities Depository as our transfer agent, registers transfers of shares on the register of shareholders upon presentation of the share certificates.
The record date for annual dividends is December 31. For the purpose of determining the holders of shares entitled to annual dividends, the register of shareholders may be closed for the period from January 1 of each year up to January 15 of such year. Further, the Korean Commercial Code and the Articles of Incorporation permit us upon at least two weeks’ public notice to set a record date and/or close the register of shareholders for not more than three months for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to certain rights pertaining to the shares. The trading of shares and the delivery of certificates in respect thereof may continue while the register of shareholders is closed.
Other Shareholder Rights
Our articles of incorporation do not have sinking fund provisions or provisions creating liability to further capital calls. Other than to amend our articles of incorporation in accordance with the Korean Commercial Code, no particular action is necessary to change the rights of holders of our capital stock. In addition, our articles of incorporation do not have specific provisions for governing changes in capital or which would have an effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving us or any of our subsidiaries.

Annual Report
Under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, we must file with the Financial Services Commission and the Korea Exchange an annual business report (containing audit report and audited annual nonconsolidated and consolidated financial statements) within 90 days after the end of our fiscal year as well as a semiannual business report within 45 days after the end of the first six months of our fiscal year and quarterly business reports within 45 days after the end of the first three months and nine months of our fiscal year, respectively (in each case, containing review report and reviewed interim nonconsolidated and consolidated financial statements). Copies of such reports are available for public inspection at the websites of the Financial Services Commission and the Korea Exchange.
Transfer of Shares
Under the Korean Commercial Code, the transfer of shares is effected by the delivery of share certificates. In order to exercise shareholders’ rights, the transferee must have his name and address registered on the registerregistry of shareholders. For this purpose, shareholders are required to file with us their name, address and seal. Nonresident shareholders must notify us of the name of their proxy in Korea to which our notice can be sent. Under the Financial Services Commission regulations, nonresident shareholders may appoint a standing proxy and may not allow any person other than the standing proxy to exercise rights regarding the acquired share or perform any task related thereto on his behalf, subject to certain exceptions. Under current Korean regulations, the Korea Securities Depository, foreign exchange banks (including domestic branches of foreign banks), financial investment companies with a dealing, brokerage or collective investment license and internationally
recognized custodians are authorized to act as standing proxy and provide related services. Certain foreign exchange controls and securities regulations apply to the transfer of shares by nonresidents ornon-Koreans. See “Item 10.D. Exchange Controls.” As to the ceiling on the aggregate shareholdings of a single shareholder and persons who have a special relationship with such shareholder, please see “Item 4.B. Business Overview — Supervision and Regulation — Principal Regulations Applicable to Financial Holding Companies — Restrictions on Financial Holding Company Ownership.”
Acquisition of Treasury Shares
Under the Korean Commercial Code, we may acquire our own shares upon a resolution of the general meeting of the shareholders or resolution of the board of directors pursuant to Article165-3 of the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act by either (i) purchasing them on a stock exchange or (ii) purchasing a number of shares, other than the redeemable shares as set forth in Article 345, Paragraph (1) of the Korean Commercial Code, from each shareholder in proportion to its existing shareholding ratio through the methods set forth in the Presidential Decree, provided that the total purchase price does not exceed the amount of our profit that may be distributed as dividends in respect of the immediately preceding fiscal year.
In addition, pursuant to the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and regulations under the Financial Holding Companies Act, we may purchase our own shares on the KRX KOSPI Market of the Korea Exchange, through a tender offer, or through a trust agreement with a trust company, or retrieve our own shares
from a trust company upon termination of a trust agreement, subject to the restrictions that (1) the aggregate purchase price of such shares may not exceed the total amount available for distribution of dividends at the end of the preceding fiscal year less the amounts of dividends and reserves for such fiscal year, subtracted by the sum of (a) the purchase price of treasury stock acquired if any treasury stock has been purchased after the end of the preceding fiscal year pursuant to the Commercial Act or the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, (b) the amount subject to trust agreements, and (c) the amount of dividends approved at the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting after the end of the preceding fiscal year and the amount of retained earnings reserve required under the Commercial Act; plus if any treasury stock has been disposed of after the end of the preceding fiscal year, the acquisition cost of such treasury stock and (2) the purchase of such shares shall meet the requisite capital ratio under the Financial Holding Companies Act and the guidelines issued by the Financial Services Commission. In general, under the Financial Holding Companies Act, our subsidiaries are not permitted to acquire our shares.

General
The Foreign Exchange Transaction Act of Korea the related Presidential Decree and the regulations under such Act and Decree (collectively the “Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws”) herein, regulate investment in Korean securities by nonresidents and issuance of securities by Korean companies outside Korea. Under the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws, nonresidents may invest in Korean securities only to the extent specifically allowed by these laws or otherwise permitted by the Ministry of Strategy and Finance of Korea. The Financial Services Commission has also adopted, pursuant to its authority under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act, regulations that restrict investment by foreigners in Korean securities and regulate issuance of securities by Korean companies outside Korea.
Under the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws, (1) if the Korean governmentGovernment determines that it is inevitable due to the outbreak of natural calamities, wars, conflict of arms or grave and sudden changes in domestic or foreign economic circumstances or other situations equivalent thereto, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance may temporarily suspend payment, receipt or the whole or part of transactions to which the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws apply, or impose an obligation to safe keep, deposit or sell means of payment in or to certain Korean governmental agencies or financial institutions; and (2) if the Korean governmentGovernment determines that international balance of payments and international finance face or are likely to face serious difficulty or the movement of capital between Korea and abroad will cause or is likely to cause serious obstacles in carrying out its currency policies, exchange rate policies and other macroeconomic policies, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance may take measures to require any person who intends to perform capital transactions to obtain permission or to require any person who performs capital transactions to deposit part of the payments received in such transactions at certain Korean governmental agencies or financial institutions, in each case subject to certain limitations.
Restrictions Applicable to Shares
Under the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws, a foreign investor who intends to acquire shares must designate a foreign exchange bank at which he must open a foreign currency account and a Won account
exclusively for stock investments. No approval is required for remittance into Korea and deposit of foreign currency funds in the foreign currency account. Foreign currency funds may be transferred from the foreign currency account at the time required to make a deposit for, or settle the purchase price of, a stock purchase transaction to a Won account opened at a financial investment company with a securities dealing or brokerage license. Funds in the foreign currency account may be remitted abroad without any Korean governmental approval.
Dividends on shares of Korean companies are paid in Won. No Korean governmental approval is required for foreign investors to receive dividends on, or the Won proceeds of the sale of, any shares to be paid, received and retained in Korea. Dividends paid on, and the Won proceeds of the sale of, any shares held by a nonresident of Korea must be deposited either in a Won account with the investor’s financial investment company with a securities dealing or brokerage license or in his Won account. Funds in the investor’s Won account may be transferred to his foreign currency account or withdrawn for local living expenses, provided that any withdrawal of local living expenses by any one person exceeding US$10,000 per day needs to be reported to the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service by the foreign exchange bank at which the Won account is maintained. Funds in the Won account may also be used for future investment in shares or for payment of the subscription price of new shares obtained through the exercise of preemptive rights.
Financial investment companies with a securities dealing, brokerage or collective investment license are allowed to open foreign currency accounts with foreign exchange banks exclusively for accommodating foreign investors’ stock investments in Korea. Through these accounts, financial companies with a securities dealing, brokerage or collective investment license may enter into foreign exchange transactions on a limited basis, such as conversion of foreign currency funds and Won funds, either as a counterparty to or on behalf of foreign investors, without the investors having to open their own accounts with foreign exchange banks.
| ITEM 10.E. | Taxation |
The following summary is based upon tax laws, regulations, rulings, decrees, income tax conventions (treaties), administrative practice and judicial decisions of Korea and the United States as of the date of this annual report, and is subject to any change in Korean or United States law that may come into effect after such date. Investors in shares of common stock or American depositary shares are advised to consult their own tax advisers as to the Korean, United States or other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of such securities, including the effect of any national, state or local tax laws.
Korean Taxation
The following summary of Korean tax considerations applies to you so long as you are not:
a resident of Korea;
a corporation having its head office, principal place of business, or place of effective management in Korea (a Korean corporation); or
engaged in a trade or business in Korea through a permanent establishment or a fixed base to which the relevant income is attributable or with which the relevant income is effectively connected.
Taxation of Dividends on Shares of Common Stock or American Depositary Shares
We will deduct Korean withholding tax from dividends (whether in cash or in shares) paid to you at a rate of 22% (including local income surtax). If you are a qualified resident and a beneficial owner of the dividends in a country that has entered into a tax treaty with Korea, you may qualify for a reduced rate of Korean withholding tax. See “— Tax Treaties” below for a discussion of treaty benefits. If we distribute to you free shares representing a transfer of certain capital reserves or asset revaluation reserves intopaid-in capital, such distribution may be subject to a Korean withholding tax.
Taxation of Capital Gains from Transfer of Common Shares or American Depositary Shares
As a general rule, capital gains earned bynon-residents upon transfer of our common shares or American depositary shares (“ADSs”) are subject to a Korean withholding tax at the lower of (1) 11% (including local income surtax) of the gross proceeds realized or (2) 22% (including local income surtax) of the net realized gain, subject to the production of satisfactory evidence of acquisition costs and certain direct transaction costs associated with common shares or ADSs, unless exempt from Korean income taxation under an applicable tax treaty between Korea and the country of your tax residence. See “— Tax Treaties” below for a discussion on treaty benefits. Even if you do not qualify for the exemption under a tax treaty, you will not be subject to the foregoing withholding tax on capital gains if you meet certain requirements for the exemption under Korean domestic tax laws discussed in the following paragraphs.
You will not be subject to the Korean income taxation on capital gains realized upon a transfer of our common shares through the Korea Exchange if you (1) have no permanent establishment in Korea and (2) do not own and have never owned (together with any shares owned by any entity with which you have a special relationship and possibly including the shares represented by the ADSs) 25% or more of our total issued and outstanding shares at any time during the calendar year in which the sale occurs and during the five consecutive calendar years prior to the calendar year in which the sale occurs.
Under the tax law amendments effective for capital gains recognized or to be recognized from disposition of ADSs on or after January 1, 2008, ADSs are viewed as shares of stock for capital gains tax purposes. Accordingly, capital gains from sale or disposition of ADSs are taxed (if taxable) as if such gains are from sale or disposition of shares of our common stock. It should be noted that (i) capital gains earned by you (regardless of whether you have a permanent establishment in Korea) from a transfer of ADSs outside Korea will generally be
exempt from Korean income taxation by virtue of the Special Tax Treatment Control Law of Korea, or the STTCL, provided that the issuance of ADSs is deemed to be an overseas issuance under the STTCL, but (ii) in the case where an owner of the underlying shares of stock transfers ADSs after conversion of the underlying shares into ADSs, the exemption under the STTCL described in (i) will not apply. In the case where an owner of the underlying shares of stock transfers the ADSs after conversion of the underlying shares of stock into ADSs, such person is obligated to file corporate income tax returns and pay tax unless a purchaser or a financial investment company with a brokerage license, as applicable, withholds and pays the tax on capital gains derived from transfer of ADSs, as discussed below.
If you are subject to tax on capital gains with respect to a sale of common shares or ADSs, the purchaser or, in the case of a sale of common shares on the Korea Exchange or through a financial investment company with a brokerage license in Korea, the financial investment company is required to withhold Korean tax from the sales proceeds in an amount equal to 11% (including local income surtax) of the gross realization proceeds and to remit the withheld tax to the Korean tax authority, unless you establish your entitlement to an exemption under an applicable tax treaty or domestic tax law or produce satisfactory evidence of your acquisition costs and certain direct transaction costs associated with common shares or ADSs. See the discussion under “— Tax Treaties” below for an explanation of claiming treaty benefits.
Tax Treaties
Korea has entered into a number of income tax treaties with other countries, including the United States, which reduce or exempt Korean withholding tax on the income derived by residents of such treaty countries. For example, under theKorea-U.S. income tax treaty, reduced rates of Korean withholding tax on dividends of 16.5% or 11.0%, respectively (including local income surtax), depending on your shareholding ratio, and an exemption from Korean withholding tax on capital gains are generally available to residents of the United States that are beneficial owners of the relevant dividend income or capital gains. However, under Article 17 (Investment or Holding Companies) of theKorea-U.S. income tax treaty, such reduced rates and exemption do not apply if (1) you are a United States corporation, (2) by reason of any special measures the tax imposed on
you by the United States with respect to such dividends or capital gains is substantially less than the tax generally imposed by the United States on corporate profits, and (3) 25% or more of your capital is held of record or is otherwise determined, after consultation between competent authorities of the United States and Korea, to be owned directly or indirectly by one or more persons who are not individual residents of the United States. Also, under Article 16 (Capital Gains) of theKorea-U.S. income tax treaty, the exemption on capital gains does not apply if (a) you have a permanent establishment in Korea and any shares of common stock in which you hold an interest and which gives rise to capital gains are effectively connected with such permanent establishment, (b) you are an individual and you maintain a fixed base in Korea for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the taxable year and your common shares or ADSs giving rise to capital gains are effectively connected with such fixed base or (c) you are an individual and you are present in Korea for a period or periods of 183 days or more during the taxable year.
You should inquire for yourself whether you are entitled to the benefit of an income tax treaty with Korea. It is the responsibility of the party claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty in respect of dividend payments or capital gains to submit to us, the purchaser, the financial investment company, or other withholding agent, as the case may be, a certificate as to his tax residence. In the absence of sufficient proof, we, the purchaser, the financial investment company, or other withholding agent, as the case may be, must withhold tax at the normal rates. Furthermore, in order for you to claim the benefit of a tax rate reduction or tax exemption on certain Korean source income (e.g., dividends or capital gains) under an applicable tax treaty as the beneficial owner of such Korean source income, Korean tax law requires you (or your agent) to submit an application (in the case for reduced withholding tax rate, an “application for entitlement to reduced tax rate,” and in the case for exemption from withholding tax, an “application for tax exemption”) with a certificate of your tax residency issued by the competent authority of your country of tax residence, subject to certain exceptions (together, the “BO application”). For example, a U.S. resident would be required to provide a Form 6166 as a certificate of tax
residency with the application for entitlement to reduced tax rate or the application for tax exemption, as the case may be. Subject to certain exceptions, where the relevant income is paid to an overseas investment vehicle that is not the beneficial owner of such income (an “OIV”), a beneficial owner claiming the benefit of an applicable tax treaty with respect to such income must submit its BO application to such OIV, which in turn must submit an OIV report and a schedule of beneficial owners (and the BO applications collected from each beneficial owner, if such beneficial owner is applying for tax exemption) to the withholding agent prior to the payment date of such income. Effective from January 1, 2020, an OIV that was not established for the purpose of unjustifiably reducing income tax liabilities in Korea and bears tax liabilities in the country of its residence is deemed to be a beneficial owner of Korean source income for income tax purposes. The benefits under a tax treaty between Korea and the country of such OIV’s residence will apply with respect to the relevant income paid to such OIV, subject to certain application requirements as prescribed by the Corporate Income Tax or Individual Income Tax Law. In the case of a tax exemption application, the withholding agent is required to submit such application (together with the applicable OIV report in the event the income will be paid to an OIV) to the relevant district tax office by the ninth day of the month following the date of the payment of such income.
Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax
If you die while holding an ADS or donate an ADS, it is unclear whether, for Korean inheritance and gift tax purposes, you would be treated as the owner of the shares of common stock underlying the ADSs. If the tax authority interprets depositary receipts as the underlying share certificates, you may be treated as the owner of the shares of common stock and your heir or the donee (or in certain circumstances, you as the donor) will be subject to Korean inheritance or gift tax, which ranges from 10% to 50% recently, assessable based on the value of the ADSs or shares of common stock and the identity of the individual against whom the tax is assessed.
If you die while holding a common share or donate a subscription right or a common share, your heir or donee (or in certain circumstances, you as the donor) will be subject to Korean inheritance or gift tax at the same rate as indicated above.
At present, Korea has not entered into any tax treaty relating to inheritance or gift taxes.
Securities Transaction Tax
If you transfer common shares through the Korea Exchange, you will be subject to a securities transaction tax at the rate of 0.15%0.1% and an agriculture and fishery special surtax at the rate of 0.15% of the sales price of
common shares. If your transfer of common shares is not made through the Korea Exchange, subject to certain exceptions, you will be subject to a securities transaction tax at the rate of 0.5%0.45% but will not be subject to an agriculture and fishery special surtax.
Depositary receipts, which the ADSs constitute, are included in the scope of securities transfer subject to securities transaction tax effective starting with transfers occurring on or after January 1, 2011.tax. Nonetheless, transfer of depositary receipts listed on a foreign securities exchange similar to the Korea Exchange (e.g., the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ National Market) will not be subject to the securities transaction tax.
In principle, the securities transaction tax, if applicable, must be paid by a transferor of common shares. When a transfer is affectedeffected through a securities settlement company in Korea, such settlement company is generally required to withhold and remit the tax to the tax authorities. When such transfer is made through a financial investment company only, such financial investment company is required to withhold and remit the tax. Where a transfer is affected by anon-resident who has no permanent establishment in Korea by a method other than through a securities settlement company or a financial investment company, the transferee is required to withhold the securities transaction tax.
Non-reporting or underreporting of securities transaction tax will generally result in the imposition of penalties equal to 20% to 60% of thenon-reported or 10% to 60% of underreported tax amount and a failure to
timely pay securities transaction tax due will result in penalties of 10.95%9.125% per annum of the due but unpaid tax. The penalty is imposed on the party responsible for paying the securities transaction tax or, if the securities transaction tax is to be withheld, on the party that has the withholding obligation.
Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following summary describes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations for beneficial owners of our common shares or ADSs that hold the common shares or ADSs as capital assets and are “U.S. holders.” You are a “U.S. holder” if you are for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
| (i) | an individual citizen or resident of the United States; |
| (ii) | a corporation, or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or District of Columbia; |
| (iii) | an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; |
| (iv) | a trust that is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and has one or more U.S. persons with authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or |
| (v) | a trust that has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. |
In addition, this summary only applies to you if you are a U.S. holder that is a resident of the United States for purposes of the current income tax treaty between the United States and Korea (the “Treaty”), your common shares or ADSs are not, for purposes of the Treaty, effectively connected with a permanent establishment in Korea and you otherwise qualify for the full benefits of the Treaty.
This summary is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and regulations (including proposed regulations), rulings and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date hereof, as well as the Treaty, all of which are subject to change, perhaps retroactively. It is for general purposes only and you should not consider it to be tax advice. In addition, it is based in part on representations by the ADS depositary and assumes that each obligation under the deposit agreement will be performed in accordance with its terms. This summary does not represent a detailed description of all the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you in light of your particular circumstances, and does not address the Medicare tax on net investment income
or the effects of any state, local ornon-U.S. tax laws. In addition, it does not represent a detailed description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including if you are:
a bank;
a dealer in securities or currencies;
an insurance company or one of certain financial institutions;
a regulated investment company;
a real estate investment trust;
atax-exempt entity;
a trader in securities that has elected to use amark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings;
a person holding common shares or ADSs as part of a hedging, conversion, constructive sale or integrated transaction or a straddle;
a person liable for the alternative minimum tax;
a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
a person who owns or is deemed to own 10% or more of our voting stock;stock (by vote or value);
a person required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to our common shares or ADSs as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable financial statement; or
a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. Dollar.
If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds our common shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common shares or ADSs, you are urged to consult your tax advisor.
You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the particular U.S. federal tax consequences to you of the ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs, as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.
American Depositary Shares
If you hold ADSs, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you generally will be treated as the owner of the underlying common shares that are represented by such ADSs. Accordingly, deposits or withdrawals of common shares for ADSs will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.
Distributions on Common Shares or American Depositary Shares
Subject to the discussion below under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” the gross amount of distributions on our common shares or ADSs (including amounts withheld to reflect Korean withholding tax) will be taxable as dividends to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Such income (including withheld taxes) will be includable in your gross income as ordinary income on the day you actually or constructively receive it, in the case of our common shares, or the day actually or constructively received by the ADS depositary, in the case of ADSs. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.
With respect tonon-corporate U.S. holders, certain dividends received from a qualified foreign corporation may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. A qualified foreign corporation includes a foreign corporation that is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States which the U.S. Treasury Department determines to be satisfactory for these purposes and which includes an exchange of information
provision. The U.S. Treasury Department has determined that the Treaty meets these requirements, and we believe we are eligible for the benefits of the Treaty. A foreign corporation is also treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends paid by that corporation on shares (or ADSs backed by such shares) that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Our common shares will generally not be considered readily tradable for these purposes. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that securities such as our ADSs, which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, are treated as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States for these purposes. There can be no assurance that our ADSs will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in later years.Non-corporate U.S. holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from a risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of our status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. Furthermore,non-corporate U.S. holders will not be eligible for the rate reduction if we are a passive foreign investment company (as discussed below under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules”) in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or were a passive foreign investment company in the preceding taxable year. If you are anon-corporate U.S. holder, you should consult your own tax advisor regarding the application of these rules given your particular circumstances.
The amount of any dividend paid in Korean Won will equal the U.S. Dollar value of the Korean Won received calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date you receive the dividend, in the case of our common shares, or the date received by the ADS depositary, in the case of ADSs, regardless of whether the Korean Won are converted into U.S. Dollars. If the Korean Won received as a dividend are converted into U.S. Dollars on the date they are received, you generally will not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. If the Korean Won received are not converted into U.S. Dollars on the day of receipt, you will have a basis in the Korean Won equal to their U.S. Dollar value on the date of receipt. Any gain or loss realized on a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the Korean Won will be treated as United States source ordinary income or loss.
Subject to certain significant conditions and limitations, Korean taxes withheld from dividends (at a rate not exceeding the rate provided in the Treaty) will be treated as foreign income taxes eligible for credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability. See “— Korean Taxation — Taxation of Dividends on Shares of Common Stock or American Depositary Shares”Tax Treaties” for a discussion of the Treaty rate. Korean taxes withheld in excess of the rate provided in the Treaty will not be eligible for credit against your U.S. federal income tax until you exhaust all effective and practical remedies to recover such excess withholding, including the seeking of competent authority assistance from the Internal Revenue Service. For purposes of the foreign tax credit, dividends paid on our common shares or ADSs will be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. If you do not elect to claim a credit for any foreign taxes paid during a taxable year, you may instead elect, subject to certain limitations, to claim a deduction in respect of such foreign taxes, provided that you apply this election to all foreign taxes paid or accrued in the taxable year.
Further, in certain circumstances, if you have held our common shares or ADSs for less than a specified minimum period during which you are not protected from risk of loss, or are obligated to make payments related to the dividends, you will not be allowed a foreign tax credit for foreign taxes imposed on dividends paid on our common shares or ADSs. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under your particular circumstances.
To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will first be treated as atax-free return of capital, causing a reduction of your adjusted basis in our common shares or ADSs (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized by you on a subsequent disposition of our common shares or ADSs), and the balance in excess of adjusted basis will be taxed as capital
gain recognized on a sale or exchange. However, we do not expect to determine earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, you should expect that a distribution will be reported and generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above).
Distributions of our common shares or ADSs or rights to subscribe for our common shares or ADSs that are received as part of a pro rata distribution to all of our shareholders (including holders of ADSs) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to recipient common shareholders (including holders of ADSs). Consequently, such distributions will not give rise to foreign source income and you will not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Korean withholding tax unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against U.S. tax due on other income derived from foreign sources.
Disposition of Common Shares or American Depositary Shares
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, you will recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares or ADSs in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale, exchange or other disposition and your adjusted tax basis in our common shares or ADSs, as the case may be. Subject to the discussion below under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” upon the sale, exchangesuch gain or other disposition of our common shares or ADSs, suchloss will generally be capital gain or loss and will generally be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of sale, exchange or other disposition, our common shares or ADSs have been held for more than one year. CapitalLong-
term capital gains ofnon-corporate U.S. holders (including individuals) derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss you recognize on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares or ADSs will generally be treated as United States source gain or loss. Consequently, you may not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Korean tax imposed on the disposition of our common shares or ADSs unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against tax due on other income treated as derived from foreign sources.
You should note that any Korean securities transaction tax generally will not be treated as a creditable foreign tax for U.S. federal income tax purposes, although you may be entitled to deduct such taxes, subject to applicable limitations under the Code.
Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules
Based upon the past and projected composition of our income and assets and valuation of our assets, including goodwill, we do not believe that we were a PFIC for 2016,2019, and we do not expect to be a PFIC in 20172020 or to become one in the foreseeable future, although there can be no assurance in this regard. However, PFIC status is a factual determination that is made annually. Accordingly, it is possible that we may become a PFIC in the current or any future taxable year due to changes in valuation or composition of our income or assets or valuation of our assets. Because we have valued our goodwill based on the market value of our common shares and ADSs, a decrease in the price of our common shares and ADSs may also result in our becoming a PFICPFIC.
In general, we will be considered a PFIC for any taxable year in which:
at least 75% of our gross income is passive income; or
at least 50% of the value (determined based on a quarterly average) of our assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income.
The 50% of value test is based on the average of the value of our assets for each quarter during the taxable year. For this purpose, passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties and rents (other than royalties and rents derived in the active conduct of a trade or business and not derived from a related person). Certain proposed U.S. Treasury regulations and other administrative pronouncements from the Internal Revenue Service provide special rules for determining the character of income and assets derived in the active conduct of a banking business for purposes of the PFIC rules. Specifically, these rules treat certain income earned by a non-
U.S.non-U.S. corporation engaged in the active conduct of a banking business asnon-passive income. Although we believe we have adopted a reasonable interpretation of the proposed U.S. Treasury regulations and administrative pronouncements, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will follow the same interpretation. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the application of these rules.
If we own at least 25% by value of another corporation’s stock, we will be treated, for purposes of the PFIC rules, as owning our proportionate share of the assets and receiving our proportionate share of the income of that corporation.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares or ADSs (and you do not make a timelymark-to-market election, as described below), you will be subject to special tax rules with respect to any “excess distribution” that you receive and any gain you realize from the sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of our common shares or ADSs. These special tax rules generally will apply even if we cease to be a PFIC in future years. Distributions you receive in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions you received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or your holding period for our common shares or ADSs will be treated as excess distributions. Under these special tax rules:
the excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably over your holding period for our common shares or ADSs;
the amount allocated to the current taxable year, and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which we are a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary income; and
the amount allocated to each other year will be subject to tax at the highest tax rate in effect for that year, and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.
In certain circumstances, you could make amark-to-market election, under which in lieu of being subject to the special rules discussed above, you will include gain on our common shares or ADSs on amark-to-market basis as ordinary income, provided that our common shares or ADSs are regularly traded on a qualified exchange or other market. Our common shares are listed on the Korea Exchange, which must meet certain trading, listing, financial disclosure and other requirements to be treated as a qualified exchange under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations for purposes of themark-to-market election, and no assurance can be given that the common shares are or will continue to be “regularly traded” for purposes of themark-to-market election. Our ADSs are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange, which constitutes a qualified exchange, although there can be no assurance that the ADSs are or will be “regularly traded.” If you make a validmark-to-market election, for each year that we are a PFIC you will include in each year as ordinary income the excess of the fair market value of your common shares or ADSs at the end of the year over your adjusted tax basis in the common shares or ADSs. You will be entitled to deduct as an ordinary loss in each such year the excess of your adjusted tax basis in the common shares or ADSs over their fair market value at the end of the year, but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of themark-to-market election. If you make an effectivemark-to-market election, in each year that we are a PFIC any gain you recognize upon the sale or other disposition of your common shares or ADSs will be treated as ordinary income, and any loss will be treated as ordinary loss, but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of themark-to-market election.
A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in common shares or ADSs will be increased by the amount of any income inclusion and decreased by the amount of any deductions under themark-to-market rules. If a U.S. holder makes amark-to-market election, it will be effective for the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years unless the common shares or ADSs are no longer regularly traded on a qualified exchange or other market or the Internal Revenue Service consents to the revocation of the election. You should consult your tax advisor about the availability of themark-to-market election, and whether making the election would be advisable with respect to your particular circumstances.
In addition, a holder of common shares or ADSs in a PFIC can sometimes avoid the rules described above by electing to treat the company as a “qualified electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code. This option is not available to you because we do not intend to comply with the requirements necessary to permit holders to make this election.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares or ADSs and any of ournon-U.S. subsidiaries is also a PFIC, you will be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of the lower-tier PFIC for purposes of the application of the PFIC rules. You are urged to consult your tax advisors about the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.
If you hold our common shares or ADSs in any year in which we are classified as a PFIC, you wouldwill generally be required to file Internal Revenue Service Form 8621.
Non-corporate U.S. holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from us if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or were a PFIC in the preceding taxable year. You should consult your tax advisor concerning the determination of our PFIC status and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of holding our common shares or ADSs if we are considered a PFIC in any taxable year.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
In general, information reporting will apply to dividends in respect of our common shares or ADSs and the proceeds from the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares or ADSs that are paid to you within the United States (and in certain cases, outside the United States), unless you are an exempt recipient. A backup withholding tax may apply to such payments if you fail to provide a taxpayer identification number or certification of other exempt status or fail to report in full dividend and interest income.
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.
FATCA
Under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as “FATCA”), certain entities in a broadly defined class of foreign financial institutions (“FFIs”) may be subject to a 30% United States withholding tax on certain United States source payments made to the FFI, (and beginning in 2019, a 30% withholding tax on gross proceeds from the sale of United States stocks and securities), unless the FFI is a “participating FFI,” which is generally defined as an FFI that (i) enters into an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to which it agrees to comply with a complicated and expansive reporting regime or (ii) complies with the requirements of an intergovernmental agreement entered into by the United States and another jurisdiction regarding the implementation of FATCA (an “IGA”), or (iii)the FFI is otherwise deemed compliant with or exempt from FATCA.
The FATCA legislation also contains complex provisions requiring certain participating FFIs to withhold on certain “foreign passthru payments” made to FFIs that are not participating FFIs or otherwise exempt from FATCA withholding and to holders that fail to provide the information required by FATCA. Although the definition of a “foreign passthru payment” is still reserved under current regulations, the term generally refers to payments that are fromnon-United States sources but that are “attributable to” certain United States payments and gross proceeds described above. If applicable,Pursuant to proposed U.S. Treasury regulations (upon which taxpayers may rely until final regulations are issued), withholding on foreign passthru payments, if applicable, would not be required with respect to payments made before January 1, 2019.the date that is two years after the date of publication of final regulations defining the term foreign passthru payment. It is unclear whether or to what extent payments on our common shares or ADSs would be considered foreign passthru payments that are subject to withholding under FATCA.
On June 10, 2015, the United States and Korea entered into an IGA to implement the foregoing requirements. The IGA is intended to result in the automatic exchange of tax information through reporting by FFIs to the Internal Revenue Service. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the FATCA rules to an investment in our common shares.

Depositary Fees and Charges
Under the terms of the Deposit Agreement in respect of our American depositary shares (“ADSs”), the holder of ADSs may be required to pay the following fees and charges to Citibank, N.A., acting as depositary for our ADSs:
Item | Services | Fees | Paid by | |||
| 1 | Issuance of ADSs upon deposit of common shares (excluding issuances contemplated by items 3(b) and 5 below | Up to US$5.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) issued | Person depositing common shares or person receiving ADSs | |||
| 2 | Delivery of deposited securities against surrender of ADSs | Up to US$5.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) surrendered | Person surrendering ADSs for purpose of withdrawal of deposited securities or person to whom deposited securities are delivered | |||
| 3 | Distribution of (a) cash dividends or (b) ADSs pursuant to stock dividends | No fee, to the extent prohibited by the exchange on which the ADSs are listed. If the charging of such fee is not prohibited, the fees specified in item 4 below shall be payable | Person to whom distribution is made | |||
Item | Services | Fees | Paid by | |||
| 4 | Distribution of (a) cash proceeds (i.e., upon sale of rights and other entitlements) or (b) free shares in the form of ADSs (not constituting a stock dividend) | Up to US$2.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) held | Person to whom distribution is made | |||
| 5 | Distribution of securities other than ADSs or rights to purchase additional ADSs (i.e., spinoff shares) | Up to US$5.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) distributed | Person to whom distribution is made | |||
| 6 | Depositary Services | Unless prohibited by the exchange on which the ADSs are listed, up to US$2.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) held as of the last day of each calendar year, except to the extent of any cash dividend fee(s) charged under paragraph (3)(a) above during the applicable calendar year | Person holding ADSs on last day of calendar year | |||
| 7 | Distribution of ADSs pursuant to exercise of rights to purchase additional ADSs | Up to US$2.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) held | Person who exercises such rights | |||
Holders and beneficial owners of ADSs, persons depositing common shares for deposit and persons surrendering ADSs for cancellation and for the purpose of withdrawing deposited securities shall be responsible for the following charges:
| (i) | taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) and other governmental charges; |
| (ii) | such registration fees as may from time to time be in effect for the registration of common shares or other deposited securities on the share register and applicable to transfers of common shares or other deposited securities to or from the name of the custodian, the depositary or any nominees upon the making of deposits and withdrawals, respectively; |
| (iii) | such cable, telex and facsimile transmission and delivery expenses as are expressly provided in the Deposit Agreement to be at the expense of the person depositing or withdrawing common shares or holders and beneficial owners of ADSs; |
| (iv) | the expenses and charges incurred by the depositary in the conversion of foreign currency; |
| (v) | such fees and expenses as are incurred by the depositary in connection with compliance with exchange control regulations and other regulatory requirements applicable to common shares, deposited securities, ADSs and ADRs; and |
| (vi) | the fees and expenses incurred by the depositary, the custodian or any nominee in connection with the servicing or delivery of deposited securities. |
Depositary fees payable upon the issuance and cancellation of ADSs are typically paid to the depositary by the brokers (on behalf of their clients) receiving the newly-issued ADSs from the depositary and by the brokers (on behalf of their clients) delivering the ADSs to the depositary for cancellation. The brokers in turn charge these transaction fees to their clients.
Depositary fees payable in connection with distributions of cash or securities to ADS holders and the depositary services fee are charged by the depositary to the holders of record of ADSs as of the applicable ADS record date. The depositary fees payable for cash distributions are generally deducted from the cash being distributed. In the case of distributions other than cash (i.e., stock dividends, rights offerings), the depositary charges the applicable fee to the ADS record date holders concurrent with the distribution. In the case of ADSs registered in the name of the investor (whether certificated orun-certificated in direct registration), the depositary sends invoices to the applicable record date ADS holders. In the case of ADSs held in brokerage and custodian accounts via the central clearing and settlement system, The Depository Trust Company (DTC), the depositary generally collects its fees through the systems provided by DTC (whose nominee is the registered holder of the ADSs held in DTC) from the brokers and custodians holding ADSs in their DTC accounts. The brokers and custodians who hold their clients’ ADSs in DTC accounts in turn charge their clients’ accounts the amount of the fees paid to the depositary banks.
In the event of refusal to pay the depositary fees, the depositary may, under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, refuse the requested service until payment is received or may set-offset- off the amount of the depositary fees from any distribution to be made to the ADS holder.
The fees and charges the ADS holders may be required to pay may vary over time and may be changed by us and by the depositary. The ADS holders will receive prior notice of such changes.
Depositary Payments for the Fiscal Year 20162019

Disclosure Control
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2016.2019. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding
of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 20162019 were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules13a-15(f) and15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for our company. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20162019 based on the framework established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) suspended the original framework issued by COSO in 1992 on December 15, 2014. We adopted the 2013 Framework on December 15, 2014. Further details of the changes made are set out below. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of a company’s assets, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that a company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of a company’s management and directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to consolidated financial statement preparation and presentation and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Based on thisour evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016. 2019. Our management has excluded Orange Life Insurance from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019 in accordance with the SEC’s general guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of assessment in the year of acquisition. We acquired a 59.15% interest in Orange Life Insurance on February 1, 2019, upon which Orange Life Insurance became our consolidated subsidiary as of such date. Orange Life Insurance accounted for 5.95% of our consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2019, and its profit before income tax for the period subsequent to its consolidation in 2019 amounted to 7.84% of our consolidated total profit before income tax. On January 28, 2020, we acquired the remaining interests in Orange Life Insurance by effecting a comprehensive stock exchange under Articles360-2 of the Korean Commercial Code whereby holders (other than us) of Orange Life Insurance’s common stock transferred all of their shares to us and in return receive shares of our common stock, and hence Orange Life Insurance has become our wholly owned subsidiary as of such date.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting has been audited by KPMG Samjong, an independent registered public accounting firm, who has also audited our consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2016.2019. KPMG Samjong has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting under Auditing Standard No. 5 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which is included herein.

Note:
Our Audit Committee generallypre-approves all engagements of our principal accountants pursuant to policies and procedures adopted by it. Our Audit Committee has adopted the following policies and procedures for consideration and approval of requests to engage our principal accountants to perform audit andnon-audit services. Engagement requests for audit andnon-audit services for us or our subsidiaries must, in the first instance, be submitted as follows: (i) in the case of audit and non-audit services for our holding company, to our Planning & Financial Management subject to reporting to our Chief Financial Officer; and (ii) in the case of audit and non-audit services for our subsidiaries, to our Audit and Compliance Team subject to reporting to the Senior Executive Vice President of Audit & Compliance Team. If the request relates to services that would impair the independence of our principal accountants, the request must be rejected. If the engagement request relates to audit and permittednon-audit services, it must be forwarded to the Audit Committee for consideration. To facilitate the consideration of engagement requests between its meetings, the Audit Committee has delegated approval authority of the following: (i) permittednon-audit services to our holding company, (ii) audit services to our subsidiaries and (iii) permittednon-audit services to our subsidiaries, to one of its members who is “independent” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange. Such member in our case is Lee Manwoo,Yoon Jaewon, the chairman of our Audit Committee, and heshe is required to report any approvals made by them to the Audit Committee at its next meeting. Our Audit Committee meets regularly once every quarter.
Any other audit or permittednon-audit service must bepre-approved by the Audit Committee on acase-by-case basis. Our Audit Committee did notpre-approve anynon-audit services under the de minimis exception of Rule 2.01(c)(7)(i)(C) of RegulationS-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
| ITEM 16D. | EXEMPTIONS FROM THE LISTING STANDARDS FOR AUDIT COMMITTEES |
Not applicable.
| ITEM 16E. | PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS |
Neither we nor any “affiliated purchaser,” as defined in Rule10b-18(a)(3) of the Exchange Act, purchased any of our equity securities during the period covered by this annual report.
| ITEM 16F. | CHANGE IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT |
Not applicable.Pursuant to an amendment to Act on External Audit of Stock Companies effective November 1, 2018, where certain listed companies, such as us, have appointed at such company’s discretion the independent auditor (as defined under the Certified Public Accountant Act of Korea, for the audit of our financial statements in Korea prepared in conformity with IFRS as adopted by Korea) for a period of six consecutive fiscal years, the Securities and Futures Commission may request such company to appoint or substitute as independent auditor an accounting firm as designated by the Securities and Futures Commission. Absent extenuating circumstances, in which case the company may request the Securities and Futures Commission tore-designate an accounting firm, the company is required to comply with such request.
As we had appointed KPMG Samjong as our independent auditor for the previous six fiscal years, on October 14, 2019, the Securities and Futures Commission designated Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers (“PwC”) as our independent auditor for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022. Upon such request, our Audit Committee evaluated the suitability and independence of PwC, concluding there were no extenuating circumstances which would require us to requestre-designation. Accordingly, on December 12, 2019, our Audit Committee approved the appointment of PwC as our independent auditor for the audit of our financial statements in Korea prepared in conformity with IFRS as adopted by Korea for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, and our Audit Committee also approved the appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the audit of our financial statements in conformity with IFRS as issued by the IASB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. PwC’s appointment is effective from January 1, 2020. KPMG Samjong’s engagement as our independent auditor and independent registered public accounting firm expired upon the completion of the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2019, and no separate dismissal process was required for KPMG Samjong. However, resolutions by the audit committee are required for each of our subsidiaries, which our subsidiaries have obtained as necessary.
KPMG Samjong’s reports on our consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were: (i) no disagreements between us and KPMG Samjong on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG Samjong, would have caused KPMG Samjong to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the consolidated financial statements of Shinhan Financial Group; and (ii) no “reportable events” as defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form20-F.
In 2018, PwC consulted us on the application of IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ on our financial statements. The results of such consultations are reflected in Notes 2, 3 and 51 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in this annual report, which have been audited by KPMG Samjong. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, neither we nor anyone acting on our behalf consulted with PwC regarding any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of Form20-F (and the related instructions thereto), or a reportable event as described in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) ofForm 20-F.
We provided a copy of the disclosure in this Item to PwC and provided PwC the opportunity to furnish us with a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification of our expression of its views, or the respects in which it does not agree. PwC has not furnished us with such letter. We also provided a copy of the disclosure in this Item to KPMG Samjong and requested that KPMG Samjong furnish us with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with such disclosure, and if it does not agree, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of KPMG Samjong’s letter dated April 29, 2020 is filed as Exhibit 15.1 to this Form20-F.
| ITEM 16G. | CORPORATE GOVERNANCE |
We are committed to high standards of corporate governance. We are in compliance with the corporate governance provisions of the Korean Commercial Code, the Financial Holding Companies Act of Korea, the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies, the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act and the Listing Rules of the Korea Exchange. We, like all other companies in Korea, must comply with the corporate governance provisions of the Korean Commercial Code. In addition, as a financial holding company, we are also subject to the Financial Holding Companies Act and the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies. Also, our subsidiaries that are financial institutions must comply with the respective corporate governance provisions under the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies and relevant laws under which they were established.
The Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies came into effect as of August 1, 2016. The Act was enacted to address calls for strengthened regulations on corporate governance of financial companies and to serve as a uniform regulation on corporate governance matters applicable to all financial companies in place of the separate regulations for each sector that existed. The Act contains several key measures, including, but not limited, to (i) condition of eligibility of officers of financial companies and standards for determining whether financial companies’ officers may hold concurrent positions in other companies, (ii) standards for composition
and operation of board of directors, (iii) standards for establishment, composition and operation of committees of
the board of directors, (iv) internal control and risk management, (v) requirements and procedures for the approval of a change of major shareholders and (vi) special regulations for rights of minority shareholders of financial companies.
We are a “foreign private issuer” (as such term is defined inRule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act), and our ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE. Under Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, NYSE-listed companies that are foreign private issuers are permitted to follow home country practice in lieu of the corporate governance provisions specified by the NYSE with limited exceptions. Under the NYSE Listed Company Manual, we as a foreign private issuer are required to disclose significant differences between NYSE’s corporate governance standards and those we follow under Korean law. The following summarizes some significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those followed by U.S. companies listed on the NYSE under the listing rules of the NYSE:
Majority of Independent Directors on the Board
Under the NYSE listing rules, U.S. companies listed on the NYSE must have a board the majority of which is comprised of independent directors satisfying the requirements of “independence” as set forth in Rule10A-3 under the Exchange Act. While as a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from this requirement, but our board of directors is in compliance with this requirement as it currently consists of 1213 directors, of which ten directors satisfy the requirements of “independence” as set forth in Rule10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Ten of our directors are also “outside directors” as defined in the Financial Holding Companies Act of Korea. An “outside director” for purposes of the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies and the Korean Commercial Code means a director who does not engage in the regular affairs of the financial holding company, and who is elected at a shareholders’ meeting, after having been nominated by the outside director nominating committee, and none of the largest shareholder, those persons “specially related” to the largest shareholder of such company, persons who during the past two years have served as an officer or employee of such company, the spouses and immediate family members of an officer of such company, and certain other persons specified by law may qualify as an outside director of such company. Under the Korea Exchange listing rules and the Korean Commercial Code, at leastone-fourth of a listed company’s directors must be outside directors provided that there must be at least three outside directors. In the case of “large listed companies” as defined under the Korean Commercial Code, like us, a majority of the directors must be outside directors provided that there must be at least three outside directors.
Executive Session
Under the NYSE listing rules,non-management directors of U.S. companies listed on the NYSE are required to meet on a regular basis without management present and independent directors must meet separately at least once per year. There is no such requirement under Korean law or listing standards or our internal regulations.
Audit Committee
Under the NYSE listing rules, listed companies must have an audit committee that has a minimum of three members, and all audit committee members must satisfy the requirements of independence set forth in Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and Rule10A-3 under the Exchange Act. We are in compliance with this requirement as our Audit Committee is comprised of three outside directors meetingdirectorsmeeting the requirements of independence set forth in Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and Rule10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Under the Korea Exchange listing rules and the Korean Commercial Code, a large listed company must also establish an audit committee of which at leasttwo-thirds of its members must be outside directors and whose chairman must be an outside director. In addition, under the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies, at least one member of the audit committee who is an outside director must also be an accounting or financial expert. We are also in compliance with the foregoing requirements.
Nomination/Corporate Governance Committee
Under the NYSE listing rules, U.S. companies listed on the NYSE must have a nomination/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors. In addition to identifying individuals qualified to become board members, this committee must develop and recommend to the board a set of corporate governance principles. Under the Korean Commercial Code and other applicable laws, large listed companies, financial holding companies, commercial banks, and certain other financial institutions are required to have an outside director nominating committee of which at leastone-half of its members are required to be outside directors. However, there is no requirement to establish a corporate governance committee under applicable Korean law. Our outside director nominating committee is formed on an ad hoc basis prior to a general shareholders’ meeting if the agenda for such meeting includes appointment of an outside director. The composition of the committee is in compliance with the relevant provisions under the Korean Commercial Code and the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies, and the chairman of the committee must be an outside director pursuant to the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies. The board steering committee consists of five directors, including four outside directors.
Although a corporate governance committee is not required under Korean law, in March 2012, we established the Corporate Governance and Chief Executive Officer Recommendation Committee, which is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations in relation to the overall corporate governance of our group (including any aspects of corporate governance relating to code of ethics and other code of behavior, size of the board of directors and other matters necessary for improving our overall corporate governance structure), as well as recommendation of the nominees for the president and/or chief executive officer of our group and development, operation and review of our management succession plan, including setting the qualifications for the CEO, evaluating CEO candidate pool and recommending CEO candidates. The chairperson of the committee must be an outside director, and the incumbent CEO may be restricted from participating and voting on matters related to the CEO selection.
Compensation Committee
Under the NYSE listing rules, U.S. companies listed on the NYSE are required to have a compensation committee which is composed entirely of independent directors. In January 2013, the SEC approved amendments to the listing rules of NYSE and NASDAQ regarding the independence of compensation committee members and the appointment, payment and oversight of compensation consultants. The listing rules were adopted as required by Section 952 of the Dodd-Frank Act and rule10C-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which direct the national securities exchanges to prohibit the listing of any equity security of a company that is not in compliance with the rule’s compensation committee director and advisor independence requirements. Certain elements of the listing rules became effective on July 1, 2013 and companies listed on the NYSE must comply with such listing rules by the earlier of the company’s first annual meeting after January 15, 2014, or October 31, 2014.
Under the Act on Corporate Governance of Financial Companies, financial institutions including financial holding companies must establish a compensation committee of which at leastone-half of its members must be outside directors and whose chairman must be an outside director.
We currently have a remuneration committee, which is responsible for reviewing and approving the management’s evaluation and compensation programs. The committee consists of three members, all of whom are outside directors and satisfy the independent director requirements as set forth in Rule10A-3 under the Exchange Act.
Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Under the NYSE listing rules, U.S. companies listed on the NYSE are required to establish corporate governance guidelines and to adopt a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees,
and promptly disclose any waivers of the code for directors or executive officers. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from this requirement. In Korea, the Financial Services Commission implemented the Standard Corporate Governance Guidelines for Financial Service Companies in December 2014, and accordingly, we have adopted in February 2015 and are currently complying with international regulators on corporate governance modeled after the standard guidelines implemented by the Financial Services Commission,
Pursuant to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we have adopted a code of ethics applicable to all the officers and employees of our holding company and our subsidiaries, including all financial, accounting and other officers and employees that are involved in the preparation and disclosure of Shinhan Financial Group’s consolidated financial statements and internal control of financial reporting. As a further detailed guideline to the code of ethics, we have also established a supplemental code of behavior for all officers and employees of our holding company and our subsidiaries in order to provide additional guideline for the performance of their work-related duties as well as their daily behavior. We have also adopted an insider reporting system in compliance with Section 301 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The above-mentioned code of ethics and the code of behavior are available on our websitewww.shinhangroup.com.
On May 25, 2011, the SEC adopted final rules to implement whistleblower provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, which are applicable to foreign private issuers with securities registered under the U.S. securities laws. The final rules provide that any eligible whistleblower who voluntarily provides the SEC with original information that leads to the successful enforcement of an action brought by the SEC under U.S. securities laws must receive an award of between 10 and 30 percent of the total monetary sanctions collected if the sanctions exceed $1,000,000.US$1,000,000. An eligible whistleblower is defined as someone who provides information about a possible violation of the securities laws that he or she reasonably believes has occurred, is ongoing, or is about to occur. The possible violation does not need to be material, probably or even likely, but the information must have a “facially plausible relationship to some securities law violation”; frivolous submissions would not qualify. The final rules also prohibit retaliation against the whistleblower. While the final rules do not require employees to first report allegations of wrongdoing through a company’s corporate compliance system, they do seek to incentivize whistleblowers to utilize internal corporate compliance first by, among other things, (i) giving employees who first report information internally the benefit of the internal reporting date for purposes of the SEC program so long as the whistleblower submits the same information to the SEC within 120 days of the initial disclosure; (ii) clarifying that the SEC will consider, as part of the criteria for determining the amount of a whistleblower’s award, whether the whistleblower effectively utilized the company’s corporate compliance program or hindered the function of the program; and (iii) crediting a whistleblower who reports internally first and whose company passes the information along to the SEC, which would mean the whistleblower could receive a potentially higher award for information gathered in an internal investigation initiated as a result of the whistleblower’s internal report.
In addition, the final rules address concerns that the whistleblower rules incentivize officers, directors and those with legal, audit, compliance or similar responsibilities to abuse these positions by making whistleblower complaints to the SEC with respect to information they obtained in these roles by generally providing that information obtained through a communication subject to attorney-client privilege or as a result of legal representation would not be eligible for a whistleblower award unless disclosure would be permitted by attorney conduct rules. Accordingly, officers and directors, auditors and compliance personnel and other persons in similar roles would not be eligible to receive awards for information received in these positions unless (x) they have a reasonable basis to believe that (1) disclosure of the information is necessary to prevent the entity from engaging in conduct that is likely to cause substantial injury to the financial interests of the entity or investors; or (2) the entity is engaging in conduct that will impede an investigation of the misconduct, for example, destroying documents or improperly influencing witnesses; or (y) 120 days have passed since the whistleblower provided the information to senior responsible persons at the entity or 120 days have passed since the whistleblower received the information at a time when these people were already aware of the information.
In Korea, the Act on the Protection of Public Interest Whistleblowers (the “Act on Whistleblowers”) was enacted in March 29, 2011 and became effective on September 30, 2011, and was last amended on July 25, 2015.April 17, 2018. Under the Act on Whistleblowers, a “conduct detrimental to the public interest” means any conduct falling under the penalty provisions of certain acts or any conduct subject to administrative measures such as cancellation or suspension of an approval or a permit. As the Financial Holding Companies Act is included in the “certain acts” above, any conduct falling under the penalty provisions or subject to administrative measures for a violation of the Financial Holding Companies Act constitutes a “conduct detrimental to the public interest.” Any person deeming that a conduct detrimental to the public interest has been, or is likely to be, committed may make a public interest report to a representative of the organization involved or a relevant investigative agency. The personal information of a public interest whistleblower shall be kept in confidence, and the measures necessary for personal protection of a public interest whistleblower shall be taken. In addition, any disadvantageous measures against a public interest whistleblower, including discriminatory treatment and delayed payment of wage, are prohibited, and where a public interest report leads to a recovery of, or increase in, revenues of the Government, the public interest whistleblower may be entitled to compensation by the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission of Korea.
We established a group-wide whistleblower policy in July 2005 and maintain related policies and programs for most of our subsidiaries. For example, Shinhan Bank maintains a whistleblower program named “Shinhan Jikimi,” through which any employee, vendor or customer can raise concerns and report suspicious circumstances in confidence using a variety of channels including the Internet, email, postal mail, facsimile and mobile phones. In addition, Shinhan Bank distributes to its employees a quarterly email notice intended to raise awareness of the whistleblower program and posts relevant informative materials on the company bulletin board. At Shinhan Card and Shinhan Investment, we strive to maintain transparency in every aspect of business activities and provide secure and accessible channels for all related parties to raise concerns and report violations.
Shareholder Approval of Equity Compensation Plans
Under the NYSE listing rules, shareholders of U.S. companies listed on the NYSE are required to approve all equity compensation plans.
Under Korean law, if a company issues stock options amounting to 10% or more of its issued and outstanding shares, only a board of director resolution is required for such issuance if permitted by such company’s articles of incorporation. Underincorporation.Under our articles of incorporation, we may also grant stock options, but since April 1, 2010, we have not granted any stock options.
We currently have two equity compensation plans, consisting of a performance share plan for directors and key employees and an employee stock ownership plan for all employees under the Framework Act on Labor Welfare.
In accordance with our internal regulations, performance shares granted to directors are granted pursuant to a resolution by the board of director, subject to the limit amount set by a resolution at the shareholders’ meeting while performance shares granted to key employees are granted pursuant to a resolution by the board of director, without any requirement that the limit amount be approved at the shareholders’ meeting. There are no requirements relating to the granting of performance shares under applicable Korean laws and our articles of incorporation.
Under the Framework Act on Labor Welfare, a Korean company may issue stock options up to 20% of its issued and outstanding shares by a resolution at the shareholders’ meeting, if permitted by the articles of incorporation. Our articles of incorporation does not contain such provision. The equity compensation scheme for the employee stock ownership association is governed by its internal regulations, over which we have no control under Korean law.
Annual Certification of Compliance
Under the NYSE listing rules, a chief executive officer of a U.S. company listed on the NYSE must annually certify that he or she is not aware of any violation by the company of NYSE corporate governance standards. As a foreign private issuer, we are not subject to this requirement. However, in accordance with rules applicable to both U.S. companies and foreign private issuers, we are required to promptly notify the NYSE in writing if any executive officer becomes aware of any material noncompliance with the NYSE corporate governance standards applicable to us. In addition, foreign private issuers, including us, are required to submit to the NYSE an annual written affirmation relating to compliance with Sections 303A.06 and 303A.11 of the NYSE listed company manual, which are the NYSE corporate governance standards applicable to foreign private issuers. All written affirmations must be executed in the form provided by the NYSE, without modification. An annual written affirmation is required to be submitted to the NYSE within 30 days of filing with the SEC our annual report on Form20-F. We have been in compliance with this requirement in all material respects and plan to submit such affirmation within the prescribed time line.timeline.

Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd.:
Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 20152019 and 2016, and2018, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2016.2019, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016,2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control –— Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Commission.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Also in our opinion, the Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019 based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
The Group acquired a 59.15% interest in Orange Life Insurance Co., Ltd. during 2019, and the management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, Orange Life Insurance Co., Ltd.’s internal control over financial reporting associated with 5.95% of total assets and 7.84% of total profit before income tax included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Group also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Orange Life Insurance Co., Ltd.
Basis for Opinions
The Group’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying “Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on thesethe Group’s consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Group’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Group in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the auditaudits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence supportingregarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessingstatements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, andas well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statement presentation.statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
InThe critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
(i) Assessment of the allowance for credit loss
As discussed in Notes 4(b) and 12 to the consolidated financial statements, referredthe Group recognized an allowance for credit loss using the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) impairment model for the loans at amortized cost amounting to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the GroupKRW 2,684,835 million as of December 31, 2015 and 20162019. ECL allowances are measured at amounts equal to either (i)12-month ECL; or (ii) lifetime ECL for those loans that have experienced a Significant Increase in Credit Risk (SICR) since initial recognition or when the loans are impaired. The Group measures ECL allowance on an individual basis for individually significant corporate loans which have had significant increases in credit risk or have become impaired. The individual assessment involves judgment by the Group in estimating the future cash flows including the value of related collateral. The allowance for credit loss for all other loans is measured on a collective basis. For these loans, the Group measures ECL by estimating the Probability of Default (PD), the Loss Given Default (LGD) and the resultsExposure at Default (EAD) as well as the impact of its operationsForward-Looking Information (FLI). For corporate loans, one of the relevant inputs for determining PD is the internal credit risk rating of the borrower. The internal credit risk rating of the borrower is defined by the Group using quantitative and itsqualitative factors. The evaluation of the qualitative factors involves a high level of judgment by the Group.
We have identified the assessment of the allowance for credit loss as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate the Group’s estimates of future cash flows for eachthe corporate loans with ECL measured on an individual basis. In addition, subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate the Group’s estimates and judgments with respect to the measurement of collective ECL. These include the determination of when a loan’s credit risk has significantly increased since initial recognition (SICR), the analysis of the yearsqualitative factors in determining the internal credit risk ratings of corporate loans, the calculation of 12 month and lifetime PD, the calculation of LGD and the manner in which FLI is incorporated in the three-year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issuedECL calculation.
The primary procedures we performed to address the above critical audit matter included the following:
We tested certain internal controls over: (i) the estimated future cash flows for individually assessed corporate loans, including controls over the work of external valuation specialists’ engaged by the International Accounting Standards Board. AlsoGroup; (ii) the assessment of qualitative factors in our opinion,the process of determining the internal credit risk rating of the loans, including the review of internal credit risk ratings performed by an independent department with access to the same qualitative information; (iii) the validation of the models used to determine the inputs to the collective ECL calculation and the impact of FLI; (iv) the determination of SICR; and (v) the completeness and accuracy of data used in the models.
We assessed the estimates of future cash flows on a sample basis by (i) comparing assumptions made with information obtained from internal and external sources, and (ii) assessing the reliability of information used in the estimates, including the qualification of external valuation specialists engaged by the Group.
We involved credit risk and information technology professionals with specialized skills, industry knowledge and relevant experience who assisted in: (i) evaluating the methodology and key inputs used in determining the PD and LGD parameters and SICR; (ii) evaluating how FLI was incorporated in the collective ECL model; and (iii) recalculating a sample of ECL models and related inputs.
We checked, for a sample of corporate loans with ECL measured on a collective basis, that Group policy was applied in the internal credit risk rating process and assessed if the Group’s policy is aligned with international financial reporting standards.
(ii) Assessment of the measurement of fair value of level 3 financial instruments
As discussed in Note 4.(e) to the consolidated financial statements, the Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control overclassifies financial reportinginstruments measured at fair value using valuation techniques where one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data as level 3. As of December 31, 2016, based2019, the recorded fair values of the Group’s debt securities, equity securities, derivative assets, derivative liabilities, and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss classified as level 3 were KRW 8,951,398 million, KRW 511,831 million, KRW 464,826 million, KRW 308,970 million, and KRW 8,511,489 million, respectively. In order to measure these financial instruments, the Group uses discounted cash flow models, option models, or net asset value models and these models use various inputs and assumptions, depending on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issuedthe nature of the level 3 financial instruments.
We identified the assessment of the measurement of fair value for financial instruments classified as level 3 as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate the methodologies used by the CommitteeGroup to value the level 3 financial instruments. In addition, assessing the models’ significant inputs which were not directly observable in financial markets, such as volatility of Sponsoring Organizationsunderlying assets, correlations, regression coefficients, discount rates, and growth rates, and the related assumptions, required subjective auditor judgment.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following. We tested certain internal controls over the Group’s process to measure the fair value of level 3 financial instruments. This included controls related to (1) the development, validation and changes in the methodology of the Treadway Commission.models used to value the level 3 financial instruments, (2) the development and application of the significant unobservable inputs and assumptions used in the measurement of fair values, and (3) the monitoring of changes to the inputs and assumptions. We evaluated the characteristics of new products and the valuation techniques used by the
Group for these new products. For a sample of level 3 financial instruments, we compared the Group’s fair value measurement recorded at period end to the sales price of a subsequent transaction. We involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in:
Evaluating the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs on a sample basis; and
Developing models and significant unobservable inputs independently and comparing the resulting fair value estimate to the Group’s fair value measurement for a sample of level 3 financial instruments.

| (e) | Change in accounting policy |
Except for the following new standard, which has been applied from January 1, 2019, the accounting policies applied by the Group in these consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018. There are other new standards applied from January 1, 2019, which does not have a significant impact to the Group’s financial statements.
i) IFRS 16, ‘Leases’
IFRS 16, published on May 22, 2017, replaces existing standards including IAS 17,‘Leases’, IFRIC 4,‘Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease’, IFRIC 15,‘Operating Leases – Incentives’ and IFRIC 27,’Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease’.
The Group has applied IFRS 16 from the year beginning on January 1, 2019, the date of initial application.
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease, and assessed whether the contract was, or contained, a lease in accordance with IFRS 16 at the date of initial application. For a contract that is, or contains, a lease, a lessee or a lessor shall account for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately fromnon-lease components (hereinafter called‘non-lease components’) of the contract.
A lessee shall recognize a leaseright-of-use asset, which indicates an asset that represents a lessee’s right to use an underlying asset (leased asset) for the lease term, and a lease liability, which indicates obligation to make lease payments. However, a lessee may elect not to apply the requirements to short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. Also, the Group used the following practical expedients when applying IFRS 16 to leases previously classified as operating leases applying IAS 17.
Elects not to apply the requirements to recognize leaseright-of-use assets and lease liabilities to leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application.
Excludes initial direct costs from the measurements of the leaseright-of-use assets at the date of initial application.
If the contract contains an option to extend or terminate the lease, hindsight is used to determine the lease term
As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect, by class of underlying asset, not to separatenon-lease components from lease components, and instead account for each lease component and any associatednon-lease components as a single lease component.
The accounting treatment as a lessor did not change significantly from the one under IAS 17.
The accumulated effect on retained earnings from initial application of IFRS 16 was zero, and the comparative financial information presented has applied IAS 17 and the related Interpretations as previously reported and has not been retrospectively restated. The transition effects arising from changes in accounting policies are explained in Note 51.
On December 16, 2019, the IFRS Interpretations Committee published the agenda decision on ‘Lease term and useful life of leasehold improvements’ that the entity should consider all economic penalties for the termination of the lease in the determination of the enforceable period. The Group is analyzing the impact of changes in accounting policies of determination of the enforceable period on the consolidated financial

statements, and plans to reflect the impact on the consolidated financial statements when the analysis is completed.
ii) IFRS 9, ‘Financial Instruments’, IFRS 7, ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ Revision
The interest rate index reform has added an exception that allows hedge accounting to be applied while uncertainty exists. In a hedging relationship, the assume that the interest rate index that is the underlying variable of cash flows does not change to the interest rate index reform when reviewing the probability of occurrence and the prospective assessment of the effectiveness of the hedge. For hedges ofnon-contractually specified interest rate risk components, the requirement that the hedged risk should be separately identifiable applies only at the inception of the hedging relationship. Through the interest rate index reform, this application of exception is ended when the timing and amount of cash flows based on the interest rate index will no longer appear, or the hedging relationship is discontinued. These amendments take effect on 1 January 2020 but have been applied early as early entry is allowed. A significant interest rate indicator for hedging relationships is LIBOR and CD rates. The subject affected by this amendment is derivatives of Note 10.

Non-current assets held for sale are measured at fair value less costs to sell in accordance with IFRS 5,‘Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’
As of the acquisition date,non-controlling interests in the acquireeacquirer are measured as thenon-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the acquiree’sacquirer’s identifiable net assets.
The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the acquirer, the liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquireeacquirer and the equity interests issued by the acquirer.
However, any portion of the acquirer’s share-based payment awards exchanged for awards held by the acquiree’s employeesacquirer’s employee that areis included in consideration transferred in the business combination shall be measured in accordance with the method described above rather than at fair value.

ii) Goodwill

the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus
the recognized amount of anynon-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus
if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of thepre-existing equity interest in the acquiree; less
the net recognized amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
When the Group additionally acquiresnon-controlling interest, the Group does not recognize goodwill since the transaction is regarded as equity transaction.

An associate is an entity in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the entity’s financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Group holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting power of another entity or when another entity is classified as a subsidiary by the Banking Act since the Group holds more than 15% of the voting power of another entity.
A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
The investment in an associate and a joint venture is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss and changes in equity of the associate and the joint venture after the date of acquisition. Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Intra-group losses are recognized as expense if intra-group losses indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements.
If an associate or a joint venture uses accounting policies different from those of the Group for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to its financial statements in applying the equity method.
When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying amount of that interest, including any long-term investments, is reduced to nil and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has to make payments on behalf of the investee for further losses.

| (e) | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and demandcall deposits with original maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Group in the management of its short-term commitments. Equity instruments are excluded from cash equivalents unless they are, in substance, cash equivalents, for example in the case of preferred shares acquired within a short period of their maturity and with a specified redemption date. However, the Group’s account overdraft is included in borrowings.
| (f) | Non-derivative financial assets – policy applicable from January 1, 2018 |
Financial assets are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. In addition, a regular way purchase or sale (a purchase or sale of a financial asset under a contract whose terms require delivery of the asset within the time frame established generally by regulation or convention in the market concerned) is recognized on the trade date.
A financial asset is measured initially at its fair value plus, for an item not at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (“FVTPL”), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs on the financial assets at FVTPL that are directly attributable to the acquisition are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
i) Financial assets designated at FVTPL
Financial assets can be irrevocably designated as measured at FVTPL despite of classification standards stated below, if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognizing the gains or losses on them on different bases.
ii) Equity instruments
For the equity instruments that are not held for trading, at initial recognition, the Group may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income. Equity instruments that are not classified as financial assets at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (“FVOCI”) are classified as financial assets at FVTPL.
SHINHAN FINANCIAL GROUP CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
The Group subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Valuation gains or losses of the equity instruments that are classified as financial assets at FVOCI previously recognized as other comprehensive income is not reclassified as profit or loss on derecognition. The Group recognizes dividends in profit or loss when the Group’s right to receive payments of the dividend is established.
Valuation gains or losses due to changes in fair value of the financial assets at FVTPL are recognized as gains or losses on financial assets at FVTPL. Impairment loss (reversal) on equity instruments at FVOCI is not recognized separately.
iii) Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model in which the asset is managed and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the asset. Debt instruments are classified as financial assets at amortized cost, at FVOCI, or at FVTPL. Debt instruments are reclassified only when the Group’s business model changes.
| ① | Financial assets at amortized cost |
Assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. Impairment losses, and gains or losses on derecognition of the financial assets at amortized cost are recognized in profit or loss. Interest income on the effective interest method is included in the ‘Interest income’ in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
| ② | Financial assets at FVOCI |
Assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Other than impairment losses, interest income amortized using effective interest method and foreign exchange differences, gains or losses of the financial assets at FVOCI are recognized as other comprehensive income in equity. On derecognition, gains or losses accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. The interest income on the effective interest method is included in the ‘Interest income’ in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Foreign exchange differences and impairment losses are included in the ‘Net foreign currency transaction gain’ and ‘Provision for allowance for credit loss’ in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, respectively.
| ③ | Financial assets at FVTPL |
Debt securities other than financial assets at amortized costs or FVOCI are classified at FVTPL. Unless hedge accounting is applied, gains or losses from financial assets at FVTPL are recognized as profit or loss and are included in ‘Net gain on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
iv) Embedded derivatives
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are classified regarding the entire hybrid contract, and the embedded derivatives are not separately recognized. The entire hybrid contract is considered when it is determined whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.

| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
v) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognized as a separate asset or liability.
If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the transferred financial assets, the Group continues to recognize the transferred financial assets and recognizes financial liabilities for the consideration received.
vi) Offsetting
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the consolidated statement of financial position only when the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts, and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
| (g) | Non-derivative financial assets – policy applicable before January 1, 2018 |
The Group recognizes and measuresnon-derivative financial assets by the following four categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,held-to-maturity investments, loans and receivables andavailable-for-sale financial assets. The Groupgroup recognizes financial assets in the consolidatedseparate statement of financial position when the Groupgroup becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Upon initial recognition,non-derivative financial assets are measured at their fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the asset’s acquisition or issuance.
i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset is classified as at fair value through profit or loss if it is held for trading or is designated at fair value through profit or loss. Upon initial recognition, transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss when incurred. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss.
A financial asset other than a financial asset held for trading may be designated as at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”)FVTPL upon initial recognition if:
such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a recognition or measurement inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or
the financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Group’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or
it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives that would be required to be separated from the host contract.

ii)Held-to-maturity financial assetsassets(“HTM”)
Anon-derivative financial asset with a fixed or determinable payment and fixed maturity, for which the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity, are classified asheld-to-maturity investments. Subsequent to initial recognition,held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
iii) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Available-for-sale financial assets are thosenon-derivative financial assets that are designated asavailable-for-sale or are not classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss,held-to-maturity investments or loans and receivables. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value, which changes in fair value, net of any tax effect, recorded in other comprehensive income in equity. Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured and derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are measured at cost.
v)De-recognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognized as a separate asset or liability.
If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the transferred financial assets, the Group continues to recognize the transferred financial assets and recognizes financial liabilities for the consideration received.
vi) Offsetting between financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the consolidated statement of financial position only when the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, and there is the intention to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Derivative financial instruments – policy applicable from January 1, 2018 |
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
i) Hedge accounting
The Group holds forward exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other derivative contracts to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The Group designated derivatives as hedging instruments to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of assets, liabilities or firm commitments (a fair value hedge) and foreign currency risk of highly probable forecasted transactions or firm commitments (a cash flow hedge).
On initial designation of the hedge, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and hedged item(s), including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship.
①Fair value hedge
Changes in the fair value of a derivative hedging instrument designated as a fair value hedge are recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss from remeasuring the hedging instrument at fair value for a derivative hedging instrument and the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in profit or loss in the same line item of the separate statement of comprehensive income.
The Group discontinues fair value hedge accounting if the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or if the hedge no longer meets the criteria. Any adjustment arising from G/L on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk is amortized to profit or loss from the date the hedge accounting is discontinued.
②Cash flow hedge
When a derivative is designated to hedge the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecasted transaction that could affect profit or loss, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax, and presented in the hedging reserve in equity. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated, exercised, or the designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss in the periods during which the forecasted transaction occurs. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the balance in other comprehensive income is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
③Net investment hedge
The portion of the change in fair value of a financial instrument designated as a hedging instrument that meets the requirements for hedge accounting for a net investment in a foreign operation is recognized in other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion of the hedge is recognized in profit or loss Recognize. The portion recognized as other comprehensive income that is effective as a hedge is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income as a result of reclassification adjustments in accordance with IAS 21, “Effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates” at the time of disposing of its overseas operations or disposing of a portion of its overseas operations To profit or loss.

ii) Separable embedded derivatives
Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately only if the following criteria has been met: (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to those of the host contract; (b) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and (c) the hybrid instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. Changes in the fair value of separable embedded derivatives are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
iii) Other derivative financial instruments
Changes in the fair value of other derivative financial instrument not designated as a hedging instrument are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

| (j) | Impairment: Financial assets and contract assets – policy applicable from January 1, 2018 |
The Group recognizes allowance for credit loss for debt instruments measured at amortized cost and fair value through other comprehensive income, and lease receivable, loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts using the expected credit loss impairment model. Financial assets migrate through the following three stages based on the change in credit risk since initial recognition and allowance for credit loss for the financial assets are measured at the12-month expected credit losses (“ECL”) or the lifetime ECL, depending on the stage.
| Category | Allowance for credit loss | |||
| STAGE 1 | When credit risk has not increased significantly since the initial recognition | 12-months ECL: the ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring within the next 12 months | ||
| STAGE 2 | When credit risk has increased significantly since the initial recognition | Lifetime ECL: a lifetime ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring over the remaining lifetime | ||
| STAGE 3 | When assets are impaired | Same as above | ||
SHINHAN FINANCIAL GROUP CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
The Group, meanwhile, only recognizes the cumulative changes in lifetime expected credit losses since the initial recognition as an allowance for credit loss for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets. The total period refers to the expected life span of the financial instrument up to the contract expiration date.
i) Reflection of forward-looking information
The Group reflects forward-looking information presented by internal experts based on a variety of information when measuring expected credit losses. For the purpose of estimating these forward-looking information, the Group utilizes the economic outlook published by domestic and overseas research institutes or government and public agencies.
The Group reflects future macroeconomic conditions anticipated from a neutral standpoint that is free from bias in measuring expected credit losses. Expected credit losses in this respect reflect conditions that are most likely to occur and are based on the same assumptions that the Group used in its business plan and management strategy.
ii) Measurement of amortization cost regarding the expected credit loss of financial assets
The expected credit loss of an amortized financial asset is measured as the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be received and the cash flow expected to be received. For this purpose, we calculate expected cash flows for individually significant financial assets.
Fornon-individual significant financial assets, the financial assets collectively include expected credit losses as part of a set of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics.
Expected credit losses are deducted using the allowance for credit loss account and are written off if the financial assets were not recoverable. The allowance for credit loss is increased when thewritten-off loan receivables are subsequently collected and changes in the allowance for credit loss are recognized in profit or loss.
iii) Measurement of estimated credit loss of financial assets at FVOCI
The calculation of expected credit losses is the same as for financial assets measured at amortized cost, but changes in allowance for credit loss are recognized in other comprehensive income. In the case of disposal and redemption of other comprehensive income – fair value, the allowance for credit loss is reclassified from other comprehensive income to profit or loss and recognized in profit or loss.
Impairment: Financial assets and contract assets – policy applicable before January 1, 2018 |
A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably. However, losses expected as a result of future events, regardless of likelihood, are not recognized.
In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.
SHINHAN FINANCIAL GROUP CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
If financial assets have objective evidence that they are impaired, impairment losses should be measured and recognized.
Objective evidence that a financial asset or group of assets is impaired includes observable data that comes to the attention of the holder of the asset about the following loss events:
significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor
a breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
the lender, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granting to the borrower a concession that the lender would not otherwise consider
it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization
the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties
observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the group.
i) Loans and receivables
The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for loans and receivables that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment. At note 4, due from banks and loans are classified as impaired when objective evidence of impairment exists individually for loans and receivables.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate (i.e., the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition).
If the interest rate of a loan or receivable is a floating rate, the discount rate used to evaluate impairment loss is the current effective interest rate.rate defined in the loan agreement. The present value of estimated future cash flows of secured financial assets is calculated by including cash flows from collateral after deducting costs to acquire and sell the collateral.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
In assessing collective impairment, the Group rates and classifies financial assets, based on credit risk assessment or credit rating assessment process that takes into account asset type, industry, regional location, collateral type, delinquency and other relative factors.
Future cash flow of financial assets applicable to collective impairment assessment is estimated by using statistical modelingmodelling of historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgment as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the impairment losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical modeling.modelling. In adjusting the future cash flow by historical modeling,modelling, the result has to be in line with changes and trends of observable data. Methodologies and assumptions used to estimate future cash flow are evaluated on a regular basis in order to reduce any discrepancy between impairment loss estimation and actual loss.

| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against loans and receivables. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss of the year.
ii)Available-for-sale financial assets
When a decline in the fair value of anavailable-for-sale financial asset has been recognized in other comprehensive income and there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired, the cumulative loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment even though the financial asset has not been derecognized. Impairment losses recognized in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified asavailable-for-sale are not reversed through profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified asavailable-for-sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognized in profit or loss.
iii)Held-to-maturity financial assets
An impairment loss in respect ofheld-to-maturity financial assets measured at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate and is recognized in profit or loss. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognized through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.
Property and equipment |
Property and equipment are initially measured at cost and after initial recognition, are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.recognition. The cost of property and equipment includes expenditures arising directly from the construction or acquisition of the asset, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

Items of propertyProperty and equipment are measuredcarried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Certain land and buildings are measured at fair value at the date of transition to IFRS, which is deemed cost, in accordance with IFRS 1, ‘First-time Adoption of IFRS’.
The cost of replacing a partGroup recognizes in the carrying amount of an item of property orand equipment the cost of replacing part of property and equipment when that cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the itemincurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied withinassociated with the partitem will flow to the Group and itsthe cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of those partparts that are replaced is derecognized. The costcosts of the day to dayday-to-day servicing of property and equipment are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
PropertyLand is not depreciated. Other property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, which most closely reflect the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Leased assets under finance leaseleases are depreciated over the shorter

of the lease term and their useful lives.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative yearsperiods are as follows:
Descriptions |
| Useful lives | ||
Buildings | 40 years | |||
Other | 4~5 years |
The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property and equipment, which is included in profit or loss, is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual valuevalues are reassessed at each fiscalyear-end and any adjustment is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate.
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are measured initially at cost and, subsequently, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortization of intangible assets except for goodwill is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets as below from the date that they are available for use. The residual value of intangible assets is zero. However, as there are no foreseeable limits to the periods over which club memberships are expected to be available for use, this intangible asset is determined as having indefinite useful lives and not amortized.
Descriptions | Useful lives | |
Software and capitalized development cost | 5 years | |
Other intangible assets | 5 years or contract periods, whichever the shorter |
Amortization periods and the amortization methods for intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. The useful lives of intangible assets that are not being amortized are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support indefinite useful life assessments for those assets. Changes are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.
i) Research and development
Expenditures on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new technical knowledge and understanding, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. Other development expenditures are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
| (n) | Investment properties |
Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both. An investment property is initially recognized at cost including any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

All other expenditures, including expenditures on internally generated goodwill and brands, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Property held for the purpose of earning rentals or benefiting from capital appreciation is classified as investment property. Investment property is measured initially at its cost. Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement. Subsequently, investment property is carried at depreciated cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years areperiods were as follows:
Descriptions | Depreciation method | Useful lives | ||
Buildings | Straight-line | 40 years |
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate. The change is accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.
Leased assets – policy applicable from January 1, 2019 |
i) ClassificationAccounting treatment as the lessee
The Group leases various tangible assets, such as real estate and vehicles, and the each lease contract is negotiated individually and includes a variety of terms and conditions. There are no other restrictions imposed by the lease contracts, but the lease assets cannot be provided as collaterals for borrowings.
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes theright-of-use assets and the lease liabilities. Each lease payment is allocated to payment for the principal portion of the lease liability and financial costs. The Group recognizes in profit or loss the amount calculated to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the lease liability balance for each period as financial costs.Right-of-use assets are depreciated using a straight-line method from the commencement date over the lease term.
Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease, and the lease payments included in the measurement of the liabilities consist of the following payments:
Fixed payments (includingin-substance fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable)
Variable lease payments depending on the index or rate
Amounts expected to be paid by the lessee under the residual value guarantee

Lease payments related to short-term leases orlow-value assets are recognized as current expenses over the lease term using the straight-line method. A short-term lease is a lease that has a lease term of 12 months or less, and thelow-value assets lease is a lease of which the underlying asset value is not more thanW6 million.
Extension and termination options are included in a number of real estate lease contracts of the Group. In determining the lease term, management considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive not to exercise the options. The periods covered by, a) an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, or b) an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option, is included when determining the lease term. The Group reassesses whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise the extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, upon the occurrence of either a significant event or a significant change in circumstances that is within the control of the lessee, and affects whether the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option not previously included in its determination of the lease term, or not to exercise an option previously included in its determination of the lease term.
ii) Accounting treatment as the lessor
The Group leases out to lessees various tangible assets, including vehicles under operating and finance lease contracts, and the each lease contract is negotiated individually and includes a variety of terms and conditions. The risk management method for all rights held by the Group in the underlying assets includes repurchase agreements, residual value guarantees, etc.
For finance leases, the Group recognizes them as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease, and the difference from the carrying amount of the leasing asset as of the commencement date is recognized as profit or loss from disposal of the lease asset. In addition, interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest method for the amount of the Group’s net investment in finance leases. Lease-related direct costs are included in the initial recognition of financial lease receivables and are accounted for in a way that reduces the revenue for the lease term.
For operating leases, the Group recognizes the lease payments as income on straight-line basis, and adds the lease initial direct costs incurred during negotiation and contract phase of the operating lease to the carrying amount of the underlying asset. In addition, the depreciation policy of operating lease assets is consistent with the Group’s depreciation policy of other similar assets.
| (p) | Leased assets – policy applicable before January 1, 2019 |
The Group classifies and accounts for leases as either a finance or operating lease, depending on the terms. Leases where the lesseeGroup assumes substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
ii) Lesseei) Finance leases
Under aAt the commencement of the lease term, the Group recognizes as finance lease,assets and finance liabilities in its consolidated statements of financial position, the lessee recognizeslower amount of the fair value of the leased asset and a liability for future lease payments. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair valueproperty and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequentpayments, each determined at the inception of the lease. Any initial direct costs are added to initial recognition,the amount recognized as an asset.

Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Contingent rents are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
The depreciable amount of a leased asset is allocated to each accounting period during the period of expected use on a systematic basis consistent with the depreciation policy the lessee adopts for depreciable assets that are owned. If there is no reasonable certainty that the lessee will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is accounted for in accordance withfully depreciated over the accounting policy applicable to that asset.
Under an operating lease, the lessee recognizes the lease payments as expense overshorter of the lease term and does not recognizeits useful life. The Group reviews to determine whether the leased asset may be impaired.
ii) Operating leases
Payments made under operating leases are recognized in its statementprofit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of financial position.the lease.
iii) Lessor
Under a finance lease, the lessor recognizes a finance lease receivable. Over the lease term the lessor accrues interest income on the net investment. The receipts under the lease are allocated between reducing the net investment and recognizing finance income, so as to produce a constant rate of return on the net investment.
Under an operating lease, the lessor recognizes the lease payments as income over the lease term and the leased asset in its statement of financial position.
Assets held for sale |
Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. In order to be

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
classified as held for sale, the asset (or disposal group) must be available for immediate sale in its present condition and its sale must be highly probable. The assets or disposal group that are classified asnon-current assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell.
The Group recognizes an impairment loss for any initial or subsequent write-down of an asset (or disposal group) to fair value less costs to sell, and a gain for any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell, up to the cumulative impairment loss previously recognized.recognized in accordance with IAS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets’.
An asset that is classified as held for sale or part of a disposal group classified as held for sale is not depreciated (or amortized).
Impairment ofnon-financial assets |
The carrying amounts of the Group’snon-financial assets, other than assets arising from employee benefits, deferred tax assets andnon-current assets held for sale, are reviewed at the end of the reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, are tested for impairment annually by comparing their recoverable amount to their carrying amount.
The Group estimates the recoverable amount of an individual asset. Ifasset, if it is impossible to measure the individual recoverable amount of an asset, then the Group estimates the recoverable amount of cash-generating unit (“CGU”). A CGU is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groupsgroup of assets. The recoverable amount of an asset or a CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. The value in use is estimated by applying apre-tax discount rate that reflectreflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the CGU for which estimated future cash flows have not been adjusted, to the estimated future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or the CGU.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or a CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss.
Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each CGU that is expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the goodwill acquired. Any impairment identified at the CGU level will first reduce the carrying value of goodwill and then be used to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. Except for impairment losses in respect of goodwill which are never reversed, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

Employee benefits |
i) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are employee benefits that are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group recognizes the undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.
ii) Other long-term employee benefits
OtherThe Group’s net obligation in respect of other long-term employee benefits include employee benefits that are not expected to be settled beyondwholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service, and are calculated at the present value ofis the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods, less the fair value of any related assets.

If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for service before the end of the reporting period, the Group recognizes that excess as an asset (prepaid expense) to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.plans.
iv) Retirement benefits: defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Group’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of plan assets is deducted. The calculation is performed annually by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.
RemeasurementsDefined benefit liabilities are calculated annually by independent actuaries using the predicted unit credit method. If the net present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of the plan assets is an asset then the present value of the economic benefits available to the entity in the form of a refund from the plan or a reduction in future contributions to the plan.
The remeasurement component of net defined benefit liability which comprise actuarial gains and losses,is the return on plan assets (excluding interest) andchange in the effect of the asset ceiling (if any,except for the amount included in the net interest income of plan assets and net revenues of plan assets excluding interest), areactuarial gains and losses to the net of defined benefit liabilities. It is immediately recognized immediately in other comprehensive income. The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liabilityobligation (asset) forby multiplying the periodnet defined benefit obligation (asset) by applying the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligationdetermined at the beginning of the annual reporting period toand is thethen-net defined benefit liability (asset), taking into account any changes in net present value of the net defined benefit liability (asset) duringobligation. It is determined by taking into consideration the period as a result of contributions and benefit payments.fluctuations. Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognized in personnel expensesprofit or loss.
When an amendment or reduction of the system occurs, the gain or loss resulting from the change or decrease in the benefits to the past service is immediately recognized in profit or loss.
The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on high-quality corporate bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. The Group recognizes service cost and net interestgains or losses on settlement when the net defined benefit liability (asset) in profit or loss and remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability (asset) in other comprehensive income.plan is settled.

When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past service or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The Group recognizes gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
v) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense when the Group is committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognized as an expense if the Group has made an offer of voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value.
Share-based payment transactions |
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service andnon-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet the related service andnon-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards withnon-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is notrue-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.
The fair value of the amount payable to employees in respect of share appreciation rights, which are settled in cash, is recognized as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to payment. The liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at settlement date. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are recognized as personnel expense in profit or loss.
Provisions |
A provision isProvisions are recognized if, as a result of a past event,when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, andas a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The risks and uncertainties that inevitably surround many events and circumstances are taken into account in reaching the best estimate of a provision. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined at the present value of the expected future cash flows.
Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
ProvisionProvisions shall be used only for expenditures for which the provision wasprovisions are originally recognized.

The reserve loss for dividend insurance shall be preserved at the end of the reporting period and shall be used as the policyholder dividend source for the individual contractor.
ii) Contractor’s equity adjustment
The Group classifies the gains and losses onavailable-for-sale financial assets as of the end of the reporting period as contractor’s equity and shareholder’s equity based on the ratio of the average liability reserves of the dividend andnon-dividend policies for the fiscal year.
iii) Evaluation of debt appropriateness
At the end of each reporting period, the group assesses whether the recognized insurance liability is appropriate using the current estimates of future cash flows of the policy, and if the carrying amount of the insurance liability is deemed to be inappropriate in terms of the estimated future cash flows. The reserve for premiums is added to the profit or loss by the amount corresponding to the deficiency.
iv) Reinsurance assets
The group presents the recoverable amount of reinsurance assets. The group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a reinsurance asset is impaired. If there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts under the terms of the agreement as a result of

v) Deferred acquisition cost
The group recognizes unrealized gains and losses arising from long-term insurance contracts as assets and amortizes the premiums over the life of the insurance contracts equally. If the contribution period exceeds 7 years, the amortization period is 7 years if there is an unrecognized balance at the date of the cancellation, the entire amount of the cancellation is amortized in the fiscal year to which the cancellation date belongs. But, if the ratio of additional premiums is higher at the early stage of the insurance period for the purpose of recovering the excess of the unearned premiums and the early settlement costs, the new settlement expenses are treated as the period expense.
Recognition of revenues and expenses |
Other than revenues under the scope of IAS 17,‘Leases’, IAS 28,‘Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures’, IFRS 9,‘Financial Instruments’, IFRS 10,‘Consolidated Financial Statements’, and IFRS 11,‘Joint Arrangements’, the Group’s revenues are recognized using five-step revenue recognition model as follows: ① ‘Identifying the contract’g ② ‘Identifying performance obligations’g ③ ‘Determining the transaction price’g ④ ‘Allocating the transaction price to performance obligations’g ⑤ ‘Recognizing the revenue by satisfying performance obligations’.
i) Interest income and expense
i) Interest
Interest income and expense are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments and receipts through the expected life of the financial asset or liability (or,or, where appropriate, a shorter year)period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group estimates future cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument, but does not consider future credit losses.
The calculation of the effective interest rate includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are directly attributablerate, and all other premiums or discounts. When it is not possible to estimate reliably the acquisitioncash flows or issuethe expected life of a financial instrument, the Group uses the contractual cash flows over the full contractual term of the financial instrument.
Once a financial asset or liability.
Oncea group of similar financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, has been recognized on a loan, interest income is thereafter recognized atusing the rate of interest that was used to discount estimatedthe future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss.
ii) Fees and commission

Income tax |
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
i) Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable profit or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. The taxable profit is different from the accounting profit for the period since the taxable profit is calculated excluding the temporary differences, which will be taxable or deductible in determining taxable profit (tax loss) of future periods, andnon-taxable ornon-deductible items from the accounting profit.
ii) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized, using the asset-liability method, in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. A deferred tax liability is recognized for all taxable temporary differences. A deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which they can be utilized. However, deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill, or the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting profit or loss nor taxable income.
The Group files its national income tax return with the Korean tax authorities under the consolidated corporate tax system, which allows it to make national income tax payments based on the combined profits or losses of the Controlling Company and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. Deferred taxes are measured based on the future tax benefits expected to be realized in consideration of the expected combined profits or losses of eligible companies in accordance with the consolidated corporate tax system. Consolidated corporate tax amounts, once determined, are allocated to each of the subsidiaries and are used as a basis for the income taxes to be recorded in their separate financial statements.
The Group recognizes a deferred tax liabilityliabilities for all taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates, and interests in joint ventures, except to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The Group recognizes a deferred tax assetassets for all deductible temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries and associates, to the extent that it is probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduces the carrying amount to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

If any additional income tax expense exists by payment of dividends, the Group recognizes it when the liability relating to the payment is recognized.
Because of the tax polices taken by the Group, tax uncertainties arise from the complexity of transactions and differences in tax law analysis. Also, it arises from a tax refund suit, tax investigation, or to realizea refund suit against the tax authorities’ tax amount. The Group paid the tax amount by the tax authorities in accordance with IFRIC 23. However, it will be recognized as the corporate tax assets and settleif there is a high possibility of a refund in the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets arefuture. In addition, the amount expected to be settled or recovered.paid as a result of the tax investigation is recognized as the tax liability.

Borrowings from trust accounts are included in other liabilities. Trust fees and commissions in relation to the service provided to trust accounts by the Group based on an evaluation of the substance of its relationship with the Group and the SPE’s risks and rewards. Funds transferred between Group account and trust accounts are recognized as borrowings from trust accounts in other liabilities with fees for managing the accounts recognized asnon-interest income by the Group.and commission income.
Earnings per share |
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to the ordinary shareholdersshareholder of the Group by the weighted average number of ordinarycommon shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible notes and share options granted to employees.
Issued/Amended Accounting Standards that are not |
The following new standards and amendments to existingissued/amended standards have been published and are mandatory forbut have not yet been effective during the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2019. Hence, the Group did not apply the following issued/amended standards in preparing financial statements:
i) IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ and IAS 8 ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ amended
The definition of materiality has been clarified, and the feature of information users is taken into account when determining the information to adoptbe disclosed and the effects of immaterial information as well as omission or misstatement of material information when determining materiality. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017 or 2018, and the Group has not early adopted them.
i) IFRS 9, Financial Instruments
IFRS 9,Financial Instruments which was published on September 25, 2015, is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 9 will replace the current IAS 39,Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement.2020. The Group plans to adopt IFRS 9 forexpects that the year startingamendment will not have a material impact on January 1, 2018.its financial statements.

| 3. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
In principle, the new IFRS 9 should be applied retrospectively. However, there are clauses that exempt restating comparable information with respect to classification, measurement and impairment of financial instruments. For hedge accounting, the new standard will be applied prospectively except for certain cases such as accounting for the time value of options. IFRS 9 permits the use of either retrospective or cumulative effect transition method and the Group will use cumulative effect transition method.
The main characteristics of IFRS 9 are the followings; classification and measurement of financial instruments based on characteristics of contractual cash flows and business model for financial instrument management, impairment model based on expected credit losses, changes in qualification requirement of hedged items, expansion of the types of qualifying hedging instruments and changes in hedge effectiveness tests.
As there are additional requirements for a financial asset to be classified as measured at amortized costs or at fair value through other comprehensive income under IFRS 9 compared to the existing guidance in IAS 39, the adoption of IFRS 9 would potentially increase the proportion of financial assets that are measured at fair value through profit or loss, increasing volatility in the Group’s profit or loss.
The fair value change attributable to changes in the credit risk of the liability which was recognized in profit or loss under the existing standard, IAS 39, will be presented in other comprehensive income under IFRS 9.
Under IFRS 9, credit losses are likely to be recognized earlier than using the incurred loss model under the existing guidance in IAS 39 as loss allowances will be measured on either of the12-month or lifetime expected credit losses based on the extent of credit risks as shown in the below table.
The following table presents the measurement methods for credit losses according to IFRS 9.

| ||
When applying hedge accounting under IFRS 9, the hedge accounting can be applied to certain transactions that do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting under IAS 39 and volatility of the profit or loss can be decreased.
For smooth implementation of IFRS 9, financial impact analysis, accounting policy development, accounting system development and the system test are necessary. Starting from November 2015, the Group has performed financial impact analysis and established accounting policies, and is developing accounting systems as of December 31, 2016. The Group plans to test the system in 2017.
The actual impact of adopting IFRS 9 on the financial statements in 2018 is being assessed and can be subject to change because it will be dependent on the financial instruments that the Group will hold and economic conditions at the time as well as accounting policy election and judgments that it will be make in the future. The Group plans to analyze financial impact once the system development process is completed by no later than the end of 2017.

The amendments clarify that a cash-settled share-based payment is measured using the same approach as for equity-settled share-based payments. The amendments introduce an exception stating that, for classification purposes, a share-based payment transaction with employees is accounted for as equity-settled. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Group will adopt the amendment from January 1, 2017, retrospectively. The Group is in the process of evaluating the impact of the amendment on the Group’s consolidated financial statements, if any.
v) IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Group will adopt IFRS 15 from January 1, 2018.

The Group is in the process of evaluating the impact of IFRS 15 on the Group’s consolidated financial statements, if any.
vi) IFRS 16, Leases
IFRS 16 introduces a single,on-balance lease sheet accounting model for lessees. A lessee recognizes aright-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. There are optional exemptions for short-term leases and leases of low value items. Lessor accounting remains similar to the current standard – i.e. lessors continue to classify leases as finance or operating leases. IFRS 16 replaces existing leases guidance including IAS 7 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease, SIC 15 Operating Leases – Incentives and SIC 27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions Involving the Legal Form of a Lease. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for entities2020.

Each of Shinhan Bank’s borrowers is assigned a credit rating, which is based on a comprehensive internal credit evaluation system that considers a variety of criteria. For retail borrowers, the credit rating takes into account the borrower’s past dealings with Shinhan Bank and external credit rating information, among others. For corporate borrowers, the credit rating takes into account financial indicators as well asnon-financial indicators such as industry risk, operational risk and management risk, among others. The credit rating, once assigned, serves as the fundamental instrument in Shinhan Bank’s credit risk management, and is applied in a wide range of credit risk management processes, including credit approval, credit limit management, loan pricing and computation of allowance for loan losses.credit loss. Shinhan Bank has separate credit evaluation systems for retail customers, SOHO customers and corporate customers, which are further segmented and refined to meet Basel III requirements.
Loans are generally approved after evaluations and approvals by the manager at the branch level as well as the committee of the applicable business unit at Shinhan Bank. The approval limit for retail loans is made based on Shinhan Bank’s automated credit scoring system. In the case of large corporate loans, approval limits are also reviewed and approved by a Credit Officer at the headquarter level. Depending on the size and the importance of the loan, the approval process is further reviewed by the Credit Officer Committee or the Master Credit Officer Committee. If the loan is considered, further evaluation is made by the Credit Review Committee, which is Shinhan Bank’s highest decision-making body in relation to credit approval.

The credit scoring system is divided into twosub-systems: the application scoring system and the behaviorbehaviour scoring system. The behaviorbehaviour scoring system is based largely on the credit history, and the application scoring system is based largely on personal information of the applicant. For credit card applicants with whom the GroupShinhan Card has an existing relationship, Shinhan Card’s credit scoring system considers internally gathered information such as repayment ability, total assets, the length of the existing relationship and the applicant’s contribution to profitability. The credit scoring system also automatically conducts credit checks on all credit card applicants.

If a credit score awarded to an applicant is above a minimum threshold, the application is approved unless overridden based on other considerations such as delinquencies with other credit card companies.
Shinhan Card continually monitors all accountholders and accounts using a behaviorbehaviour scoring system. The behaviorbehaviour scoring system predicts a cardholder’s payment pattern by evaluating the cardholder’s credit history, card usage and amounts, payment status and other relevant data. The behaviorbehaviour score is recalculated each month and is used to manage the accounts and approval of additional loans and other products to the cardholder. Shinhan Card also uses the scoring system to monitor its overall risk exposure and to modify its credit risk management strategy.
i) Techniques, assumptions and input variables used to measure impairment
i-1) Determining significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When making the assessment, the Group uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and consider reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition.

i-1-1) Measuring the risk of default
The Group assigns an internal credit risk rating to each individual exposure based on observable data and historical experiences that have been found to have a reasonable correlation with the risk of default. The internal credit risk rating is determined by considering both qualitative and quantitative factors that indicate the risk of default, which may vary depending on the nature of the exposure and the type of borrower.
i-1-2) Measuring term structure of probability of default
The Group accumulates information after analyzing the information regarding exposure to credit risk and default information by the type of product and borrower and results of internal credit risk assessment. For some portfolios, the Group uses information obtained from external credit rating agencies when performing these analyses. The Group applies statistical techniques to estimate the probability of default for the remaining life of the exposure from the accumulated data and to estimate changes in the estimated probability of default over time.
i-1-3) Significant increases in credit risk
The Group uses the indicators defined as per portfolio to determine the significant increase in credit risk and such indicators generally consist of changes in the risk of default estimated from changes in the internal credit risk rating, qualitative factors, days of delinquency, and others. The method used to determine whether credit risk of financial instruments has significantly increased after the initial recognitions is summarized as follows:
Corporate exposures | Retail exposures | Card exposures | ||
| Significant change in credit ratings | Significant change in credit ratings | Significant change in credit ratings | ||
| Continued past due more than 30 days | Continued past due more than 30 days | Continued past due more than 7 days (personal card) | ||
| Loan classification of and below precautionary | Loan classification of and below precautionary | Loan classification of and below precautionary | ||
| Borrower with early warning signals | Borrower with early warning signals | Specific pool segment | ||
| Negative net assets | Specific pool segment | |||
| Adverse audit opinion or disclaimer of opinion | Loans relating to constructor whose collective loans are insolvent | |||
| Interest coverage ratios of below 1 for consecutive three years | ||||
| Negative cash flows from operating activities for consecutive two years | ||||
The Group considers the credit risk of financial instrument has been significantly increased since initial recognition if a specific exposure is past due more than 30 days (however, for a specific portfolio if it is past

| 4. | Financial risk management (continued) |
due more than 7 days). The Group counts the number of days past due from the earliest date on which the Group has not fully received the contractual payments from the borrower and does not consider the grace period granted to the borrower.
The Group regularly reviews the criteria for determining if there have been significant increases in credit risk from the following perspective.
A significant increase in credit risk shall be identified prior to the occurrence of default.
The criteria established to judge the significant increase in credit risk shall have a more predictive power than the criteria for days of delinquency.
As a result of applying the judgment criteria, financial instruments shall not be to move too frequently between the12-months expected credit losses measurement and the lifetime expected credit losses measurement.
i-2) Modified financial assets
If the contractual cash flows on a financial asset have been renegotiated or modified and the financial asset was not derecognized, the Group assesses whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk of the financial instrument by comparing the risk of a default occurring at initial recognition based on the original, unmodified contractual terms and the risk of a default occurring at the reporting date based on the modified contractual terms.
The Group may adjust the contractual cash flows of loans to customers who are in financial difficulties in order to manage the risk of default and enhance the collectability (hereinafter referred to as ‘debt restructuring’). These adjustments generally involve extension of maturity, changes in interest payment schedule, and changes in other contractual terms.
Debt restructuring is a qualitative indicator of a significant increase in credit risk and the Group recognizes lifetime expected credit losses for the exposure expected to be the subject of such adjustments. If a borrower faithfully makes payments of contractual cash flows that were modified in accordance with the debt restructuring or if the borrower’s internal credit rating has recovered to the level prior to the recognition of the lifetime expected credit losses, the Group recognizes the12-months expected credit losses for that exposure again.
i-3) Risk of default
The Group considers a financial asset to be in default if it meets one or more of the following conditions:
If a borrower is overdue 90 days or more from the contractual payment date,
If the Group judges that it is not possible to recover principal and interest without enforcing the collateral on a financial asset
The Group uses the following indicators when determining whether a borrower is in default:
Qualitative factors (e.g. breach of contract terms),
Quantitative factors (e.g. if the same borrower does not perform more than one payment obligations to the Group, the number of days past due per payment obligation. However, in the case of a specific portfolio, the Group uses the number of days past due for each financial instrument)
Internal data and external data
SHINHAN FINANCIAL GROUP CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions of won)
| 4. | Financial risk management (continued) |
The definition of default applied by the Group generally conforms to the definition of default defined for regulatory capital management purposes; however, depending on the situations, the information used to determine whether a default has incurred and the extent thereof may vary.
i-4) Reflection of forward-looking information
The Group reflects forward-looking information presented by internal experts based on a variety of information when measuring expected credit losses. For the purpose of estimating these forward-looking information, the Group utilizes the economic outlook published by domestic and overseas research institutes or government and public agencies.
The Group reflects future macroeconomic conditions anticipated from a neutral standpoint that is free from bias in measuring expected credit losses. Expected credit losses in this respect reflect conditions that are most likely to occur and are based on the same assumptions that the Group used in its business plan and management strategy.
The Group identified the key macroeconomic variables needed to forecast credit risk and credit losses for each portfolio as follows by analyzing past experience data and drew correlations across credit risk for each variable.
Key macroeconomic variables | Correlation with credit risk | |
Economic growth | Negative | |
Consumer price index | Positive | |
Benchmark rate | Positive | |
3-year Korea Treasury Bond | Positive | |
3-year Corporate Bond | Positive | |
KOSPI | Negative |
The predicted correlations between the macroeconomic variables and the risk of default, used by the Group, were derived based on data from the past nine years.
i-5) Measurement of expected credit losses
Key variables used in measuring expected credit losses are as follows:
Probability of default (“PD”)
Loss given default (“LGD”)
Exposure at default (“EAD”)
These variables have been estimated from historical experience data by using the statistical techniques developed internally by the Group and have been adjusted to reflect forward-looking information.
Estimates of PD over a specified period are estimated by reflecting characteristics of counterparties and their exposure, based on a statistical model at a specific point of time. The Group uses its own information to develop a statistical credit assessment model used for the estimation, and additional information observed in the market is considered for some portfolios such as a group of large corporates. When a counterparty or exposure is concentrated in specific grades, the method of measuring PD for that grades would be adjusted, and the PD by grade is estimated by considering contract expiration of the exposure.

| 4. | Financial risk management (continued) |
LGD refers to the expected loss if a borrower defaults. The Group calculates LGD based on the experience recovery rate measured from past default exposures. The model for measuring LGD is developed to reflect type of collateral, seniority of collateral, type of borrower, and cost of recovery. In particular, LGD for retail loan products uses loan to value (LTV) as a key variable. The recovery rate reflected in the LGD calculation is based on the present value of recovery amount, discounted at the effective interest rate.
EAD refers to the expected exposure at the time of default. The Group derives EAD reflecting a rate at which the current exposure is expected to be used additionally up to the point of default within the contractual limit. EAD of financial assets is equal to the total carrying amount of the asset, and EAD of loan commitments or financial guarantee contracts is calculated as the sum of the amount expected to be used in the future.
When measuring expected credit losses on financial assets, the Group reflects a period of expected credit loss measurement based on a contractual maturity. The Group takes into consideration of the extension rights held by a borrower when deciding the contractual maturity.
Risk factors of PD, LGD and EAD are collectively estimated according to the following criteria:
Type of products
Internal credit risk rating
Type of collateral
Loan to value (LTV)
Industry that the borrower belongs to
Location of the borrower or collateral
Days of delinquency
The criteria classifying groups is periodically reviewed to maintain homogeneity of the group and adjusted if necessary. The Group uses external benchmark information to supplement internal information for a particular portfolio that did not have sufficient internal data accumulated from the past experience.
i-6)Write-off of financial assets
The Group writes off a portion of or entire loan or debt security that is not expected to receive its principal and interest. In general, the Group conductswrite-off when it is deemed that the borrower has no sufficient resources or income to repay the principal and interest. Such determination onwrite-off is carried out in accordance with the internal rules of the Group and is carried out with the approval of an external institution, if necessary. Apart fromwrite-off, the Group may continue to exercise its right of collection under its own recovery policy even after thewrite-off of financial assets.
ii) Maximum exposure to credit risk
Exposure to credit risk is the exposure related to due from banks, loans, investments in debt securities, derivative transactions,off-balance sheet accounts such as loan commitment. The exposures of due from banks and loans were classified into government, bank, corporation, or retail based on the exposure classification criteria of BASEL III credit risk weights.

i) Market risk management from trading positions
i-1) Concept of Market risk
Market risk is defined as the risk of loss of trading account position of financial institutions due to fluctuations in market price, such as interest rates, exchange rates and stock prices, etc. and is divided into general market risks and individual risks. A general market risk refers to a loss from price variability caused by events affecting the market as a whole, such as interest rates, exchange rates and stock prices; and an individual risk refers to a loss from price variability related to individual events of securities issuer, such as bonds and stocks.
i-2) Market risk Management Method
The basic principle of market risk management in the trading sector is to maintain the maximum possible loss due to market risks within a certain level. To that end, the Group sets and operates the VaR limit, investment limit, position limit, sensitivity limit, and loss limit from portfolio to individual desks. These limits are managed daily by the Risk Management Department independent of Operation Department. Trading activities areposition refers to realizesecurities, foreign exchange position and derivative financial instruments held for the purpose of short-term trading profits in debtprofit. VaR is the representative method for measuring market risk and stock markets and foreign exchange markets based on short-term forecastis a statistical measure of maximum potential loss that can be caused by changes in market situationconditions. VaR calculates the market risk amount of the standard method by using TRMS, and profits from arbitrage transactions in derivatives such as swap, forward, futuresShinhan Bank and option transactions. Shinhan Investment Corp. use own internal model of market risk calculation system.
The Group manages marketconducts stress test to supplement risk relatedmeasurements by statistical method and to its trading positions using VaR, market value-based tool.manage losses that may arise from rapid changes in the economic environment.
Shinhan Bank currently usesmeasures the market risk of linear products, such as stocks and bonds, as well asten-daynon-linear products, such as options by applying historical simulation method of 99% confidence level-based VaR. Trading position data is automatically interfaced into measurement system, and the system conducts VaR for purposes of calculatingmeasurement and manages the regulatory capital used in reporting to the Financial Supervisory Service and uses the more conservativeten-day 99.9% confidence level-based VaR for purposes of calculating its “economic” capital used for internal management purposes, which is a concept used in determining the amount of Shinhan Bank’s requisite capital in light of the market risk.limit. In addition, Shinhanthe Bank also uses theone-day 99% confidence level-based VaR on a supplemental basissets loss limit, sensitivity limit, investment limit, stress limit, etc. for purposes of setting and managing risk limits specific to each desk or team in its operating units as well as for back-testing purposes. Shinhan Bank manages VaR measurements and limits on a daily basis based on an automatic interfacing of its trading positions into its market risk measurement system. In addition, Shinhan Bank establishespre-set loss, sensitivity, investment and stress limits for its trading departmentsTrading Department and desks, and monitors such limits daily.
Shinhan Investment currently uses theten-daymeasures daily market risk by applying historical simulation VaR method of 99.9% confidence level-based VaR. Historical simulation VaR method does not require assumption on a particular distribution since the method derives scenarios directly from historical VaR for purposes of calculating its “economic” capital used for internal management purposes. When computingmarket data, and measuresnon-linear products, such as options, in details. In addition to the VaR limit, the Shinhan Investment does not assume any particular probability distributionsets and calculates it through a simulation of the “full valuation” method based on changes of market variables such as stock prices, interest rates,manages issuance and foreign exchange rates in the past one year. In addition, Shinhan Investment applies this VaR as a risktransaction limit, stop-loss limit for the entire company as well as individual departments and products, and the adequacy of such VaR is reviewed by way of daily back-testing.each department.
Value-at-risk is a commonly used market risk management technique. However, VaR models have the following shortcomings:
For internal management purposes, the Group has adopted a unified market risk measurement methodology, which uses theten-day 99.9% confidence level for calculating the VaR for Shinhan Bank, Shinhan Investment Corp. and Shinhan Life Insurance.

ii) Interest rate risk management fromnon-trading positions
Principal marketii-1) Principle
Interest rate risk fromnon-trading activitiesrefers to the possibility of a decrease in net interest income or in net asset value that occurs when interest rates fluctuate unfavorably from the Group isGroup’s financial position. Through the interest rate risk which affectsmanagement, changes in net interest income or net asset value arising from interest rate fluctuations are anticipated by early forecasting changes in interest rate risks related to net interest income and net asset value.
ii-2) Managements
Shinhan Financial Group’s major financial subsidiaries manage interest rate risks independently by the Group’s earningsrisk management organization and the treasury department, and have internal regulations on interest rate risk management strategies, procedures, organization, measurement, and major assumptions.
One of the key indicators of managing interest rate risk is the Earnings at Risk (EaR) from an earning perspective and the Value at Risk (VaR) from an economic value of the Group’s net assets:
perspective. Interest rate VaR represents the maximum anticipated loss in a net present value calculation, whereas interest rate EaR represents the maximum anticipated loss in a net earnings calculation for the immediately followingone-year period, in each case, as a result of negative movements in interest rates.
Accordingly, the Group measures The precision of risk management system differs by each subsidiary. Interest rate VaR and managesinterest rate EaR are measured by internal method or IRRBB (Interest Rate Risk In The Banking Book), and interest rate risk fornon-trading activities by taking into account effects oflimits are set and monitored based on the interest rate changes on both its income and net asset value.VaR.
The principal objectives of Shinhan Bank’sBaselIII-based IRRBB measures the interest rate risk management are to generate stable netmore precisely than the existing BIS standard framework by segmenting maturities of interest incomerates, reflecting customer behaviour models, and to protect Shinhan Bank’s net asset value againstdiversifying interest rate fluctuations. Throughshocks. The interest rate VaR scenario based IRRBB measures ① parallel up shock ② parallel down shock ③ Steepener shock ④ flattener shock ⑤ short rate up shock ⑥ short rate down shock. By the parallel up shock and parallel down shock, the interest rate VaR scenario measures the scenario value with the largest loss as interest rate risk. Under the existing BIS standard framework, ± 200bp parallel shock scenario was applied to all currency. However, as the shock width is set differently by currency and period, interest rate risk is measured significantly by the IRRBB. ((KRW) Parallel ± 300bp, Short Term ± 400bp, Long Term ± 200bp, (USD) Parallel ± 200bp, Short Term ± 300bp, Long Term ± 150bp) In the IRRBB method, the existing interest rate VaR and the interest rate EaR are expressed asDEVE (Economic Value of Equity) andD NII (Net Interest Income), respectively.
Since impacts of each subsidiary on changes of interest rates are differentiate by portfolios, the Group is preparing to respond proactively while monitoring the financial market and regulatory environment, and

In particular, through its asset and liability management system, Shinhan Bank measures and manages its interest rate risk based on various analytical measures such as interest rate gap, duration gap and net present value and net interest income simulations, and monitors on a monthly basis its interest rate VaR limits, interest rate earnings at risk (“EaR”) limits and interest rate gap ratio limits. Shinhan Bank measures its interest rate VaR and interest rate EaR based on a simulated estimation of the maximum decrease in net asset value and net interest income in aone-year period based on various scenario analyses of historical interest rates.
Shinhan Card and Shinhan Life Insurance also monitors and manages its interest rate risk limits for all its interest-bearing assets and liabilities (includingoff-balance sheet items) in terms of impact on its earnings and net asset value from changes in interest rates. The interest rate VaR analysis used by Shinhan Card and Shinhan Life Insurance principally focuses on the maximum impact on its net asset value from adverse movement in interest rates.

| (d) | Liquidity risk |
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
Each subsidiary seeks to minimize liquidity risk through early detection of risk factors related to the sourcing and managing of funding that may cause volatility in liquidity and by ensuring that it maintains an appropriate level of liquidity through systematic management. At the group level, the Group manages liquidity risk by conducting monthly stress tests that compare liquidity requirements under normal situations against those under three types of stress situations, namely, the group-specific internal crisis, crisis in the external market and a combination of internal and external crisis.
Shinhan Bank applies the following basic principles for In addition, in order to preemptively and comprehensively manage liquidity risk, management:the Group measure and monitor liquidity risk management using various indices, including the “limit management index”, “early warning index” and “monitoring index”.

Shinhan Bank applies the following basic principles for liquidity risk management:
raise funding in sufficient amounts, at the optimal time at reasonable costs;
maintain risk at appropriate levels and preemptively manage them through a prescribed risk limit system and an early warning signal detection system;
secure stable sources of revenue and minimize actual losses by implementing an effective asset-liability management system based on diversified sources of funding with varying maturities;
monitor and manage daily and intra-daily liquidity positions and risk exposures for timely payment and settlement of financial obligations due under both normal and crisis situations;
conduct periodic contingency analysis in anticipation of any potential liquidity crisis and establish and implement emergency plans in case of a crisis actually happening; and
consider liquidity-related costs, benefits of and risks in determining the pricing of the Group’s products and services, employee performance evaluations and approval of launching of new products and services.
As for any potential liquidity shortage at or near the end of each month, Shinhan Card maintains liquidity at a level sufficient to withstand credit shortage for three months. In addition, Shinhan Card manages liquidity risk by defining and managing various indicators of liquidity risk, such as the actual liquidity gap ratio (in relation to the different maturities for assets as compared to liabilities), the liquidity buffer ratio, the maturity repayment ratio, the ratio of actual funding compared to budgeted funding and the ratio of asset-backed securities to total borrowings, at different risk levels of “caution”, “unstable” and “at risk”, and the Group also has contingency plans in place in case of any emergency or crisis.
Shinhan Investment Corp. manages liquidity risk by managing liquidity gap, distributing funding and investing schedule by products, setting contingency plan, minimizing mismatch of asset and liability maturities and diversifying funding sources; and Shinhan Life Insurance manages liquidity risk by managing liquidity gap, forecasting liquidity factoring in the market interest rates and other economic environment and setting contingency plans.

Group are based on the trading agencies’ notifications. If the market for a financial instrument is not active, such as OTC (Over The Counter market) derivatives, fair value is determined either by using a valuation technique or independent third-party valuation service.
The Group uses various valuation techniques and is setting rational assumptions based on the present market situations. Such valuation techniques may include using recent arm’s length market transactions between knowledgeable, willing parties, if available, reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models.

ii) Financial instruments measured at amortized cost
| ii-1) | The method of measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost is as follows: |
Type | Measurement methods of fair value | |
Cash and due from banks | The carrying amount and the fair value for cash are identical and most of deposits are floating interest rate deposits or next day deposits of a short-term instrument. For this reason, the carrying value approximates fair value. | |
Loans | The fair value of the loans is measured by discounting the expected cash flow at the market interest rate and credit risk. | |
| The minimum price between the Korea Asset Pricing’s valuation, and KIS Pricing’s is used as a fair | |
Deposits and borrowings | The carrying amount and the fair value for demand deposits, cash management account deposits, call money as short-term instrument are identical. The fair value of others is measured by discounting the contractual cash flow at the market interest rate that takes into account the residual risk. | |
Debt securities issued | Where available, the fair value of deposits and borrowings is based on the published price quotations in an active market. In case there is no data for an active market price, it is measured by discounting the contractual cash flow at the market interest rate that takes into account the residual risk. | |

Explanation on evaluation method
The income approach was applied when evaluating the recoverable amounts based on value in use, considering the characteristics of each unit or group of CGU.
Projection period
When evaluating the value in use, 5.0~5.5 years of cash flow estimates – July 1, 2016 through December 31, 2021 – waswere used in projection and the value thereafter was reflected as terminal value. In case of Shinhan Life Insurance, only the 30 years and 60 years of future cash flows were applied since the present value of the future cash flows thereafter is not significant.flow estimates for Shinhan

Discount rates and terminal growth rates
The required rates of return expected by shareholders were applied to the discount rates by calculating the cost of capital which comprises a risk-free interest rate, a market risk premium and systemic risk (beta factor). Expected terminal growth rate is on the basis of inflation rates.
Discount rates and terminal growth rates applied to each CGU are as follows:
| Discount rates | Terminal growth rate | |||
Banking | 6.8%~15.6% | 1.5%~3.2% | ||

Asset retirement obligation liabilities represent the estimated cost to restore the existing leased properties which is discounted to the present value using the appropriate discount rate at the end of the reporting period.

| (g) | Liability adequacy test, LAT – Shinhan Life Insurance Co., Ltd. |
i) Scope
Liability adequacy tests were performed on the premium reserve, unearned premium reserve and guarantee reserve for the contracts held at December 31, 2018 and 2019. The premium reserve considered the amount net level premium reserve less, where appropriate, deferred acquisition cost in accordance with thearticle 6-3 of Regulation on Supervision of Insurance Business Act.
ii) Output overview
In the debt appraisal system, the insurance premium surplus method is applied to calculate premium deficits.
Premium deficiency refers to deficiency when the amount of accumulated reserve is insufficient due to a decrease in the interest rate after the sale of the product or an increase in the risk rate compared with the expected basic rate at the time of product development.
The insurance premium standard inspection method is a method of calculating the reserve amount based on the present value of total income reflecting the interest rate, the risk rate, the business ratio, the cancellation rate, etc. and the present value of the total expenditure, that is, (discount rate), business ratio, risk rate, and cancellation rate calculated based on the Group’s own experience, which reflects company-specific characteristics, and does not reflect subjective factors such as management’s willingness to improve management.

In accordance with the Lime Fund’s directions in 2019, the Group invested IIG Fund in kind in LAM Enhanced Finance III L.P. (“LAM III Fund”) and acquired the LAM III Fund’s beneficiary certificates. The recoverable amount on the LAM III Fund beneficiary certificates is affected by the recoverable amounts of the IIG funds contributed in kind. The IIG Funds received cancellation of registration and asset freeze order from the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission in November 2019.
The Financial Supervisory Service (“FSS”) announced in February 2020 that the Group was suspected of being involved in misconduct and fraudulent activities while the Group made the TRS transactions with the Lime Asset Management. The related prosecutors’ investigations on Lime Asset Management are also underway. As of now whether the Group as the Prime Brokerage Service provider is legally responsible depends on the FSS’s additional inspections, prosecutors’ inspections and the future litigation; and the legal obligation of the Group relating to the suspected involvement in the fraudulent activities is not determined.

In addition, some of the private equity funds sold by the Group and managed by Lime Asset management are being inspected for whether anymis-selling has been involved by the supervisory authority. Depending on the results of the inspection, proceedings for dispute settlement and loss compensation on the miss-selling, if any, may take place. Whether amis-selling has happened or the amount of compensation cannot be estimated reliably, the Group did not recognized a provision.

| (v) | Hedge accounting |
IFRS 9 maintains the mechanics of hedge accounting (i.e. fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation) as defined in IAS 39, whereas a principle-based hedge accounting requirements that focuses on an entity’s risk replaced complex and rule-based hedge accounting requirements in IAS 39. Additionally, qualifying hedged items and qualifying hedging instruments have been expanded and hedge accounting requirements have been eased by eliminating a subsequent hedge effectiveness assessment and a quantitative test (80~125%). Hedge accounting can be applied to certain transactions that fail to qualify for hedge accounting requirements under IAS 39 when applying IFRS 9, and thus alleviates profit or loss volatility.
| (vi) | Financial impact with IFRS 15 |
As of December 31, 2018, the effect of applying IFRS 15 is as follows in the statement of comprehensive income of the Group as of December 31, 2018 (excluding trust fees reflected by the conversion effect). The effect on the terminated cash flow statement is not significant.

Credit card payment | (944,533 | ) | 1,135,515 | (2,080,048 | ) | |||||||
| (*1) | Before adopting IFRS 15, the Group defers and recognizes the amount allocated to the credit card points as unearned revenue and revenue is recognized only when the points are redeemed and the Group has fulfilled its obligation to provide the benefits. In addition, a provision for onerous contracts is recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the Group from customer loyalty program are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the programmes. However under IFRS 15, the amount allocated to the credit card points is regarded as consideration payable to the customers and recognized as a reduction of fee and commission income, estimated as fair value of the monetary benefits taking into account the expected redemption rate. |
| (*2) | The Group has changed the recognition of card holder service fee paid to a customer recognized as fee and commission expense before adopting IFRS 15, to reduction of fee and commission income under IFRS 15. |
| 52. | Subsequent events occurred after reporting period |
| (a) | Acquisition of residual interest in Orange Life Insurance Co. Ltd. |
The Group, pursuant to its Board of Directors’ resolution on November 14, 2019, reached a decision on exchanging of the common shares of Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and Orange Life Insurance Co. Ltd. (“Orange Life”) by means of a small-scale stock exchange, with the purpose to enable the Group to hold 100% of the stock of Orange Life. The stock exchange was consummated on January 28, 2020, at an exchange ratio of 0.6601483 shares of the Company for each share of Orange Life. As a result, the shares issued by Orange Life and owned by shareholders of Orange Life other than the Company were transferred to the Company on January 28, 2020 and such shareholders became shareholders of the Group by acquiring 8,232,906 newly issued shares in exchange for 13,882,062 treasury shares of the Group. Upon the share exchange, Orange Life became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Group.
| (b) | Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) |
The rapid spread of the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had far-reaching negative consequences on global economy, which could impact our ability to generate revenues and negatively impact specific portfolios through negative rating migrations, higher than expected credit losses and potential impairments of assets. The ECL at December 31, 2019 was estimated based on a range of forecast economic conditions as at that date. The impact on GDP and other key indicators will be considered when determining the severity and likelihood of downside economic scenarios that will be used to estimate ECL under IFRS 9 in 2020. Even though the Group is closely monitoring the situation, the impact on the Group resulting from the virus cannot be estimated as of the issuance date.
