Exhibit 2
Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors
Japan Finance Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Japan Finance Corporation as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the years then ended, all expressed in yen. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Japan Finance Corporation at March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan.
Supplemental Information
As described in Note 25, The Japan Bank for International Cooperation Act was passed on April 28, 2011. Based on this Act, on April 1, 2012, the Company’s Japan Bank for International Cooperation Operations and Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan will be separated from the Company.
The U.S. dollar amounts in the accompanying financial statements with respect to the year ended March 31, 2011 are presented solely for convenience. Our audit also included the translation of yen amounts into U.S. dollar amounts and, in our opinion, such translation has been made on the basis described in Note 1.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JAPAN FINANCE CORPORATION
1. Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared from the accounting records maintained by Japan Finance Corporation (“JFC”) in accordance with the accounting principles and practices generally accepted in Japan, which are different in certain aspects from the application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards.
Consolidated financial statements are not prepared since JFC has no subsidiaries.
The amounts indicated in millions of yen are rounded down by omitting figures less than one million. Totals may therefore not add up exactly because of this rounding.
Amounts in U.S. dollars are presented solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan. The rate of ¥83.15=$1.00, the exchange rate as of March 31, 2011 has been used in translation. The presentation of such amounts is not intended to imply that Japanese yen have been or could be readily converted, realized or settled into U.S. dollars at that rate or any other rate.
According to the Article 41 of the JFC Act, JFC shall separate the accounting for each category of operations listed below.
| (a) | Operations described in the item of (1), Article 41 (hereinafter referred to as “Micro Business and Individual Operations”) |
| (b) | Operations described in the item of (2), Article 41 (hereinafter referred to as “Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations”) |
| (c) | Operations described in the item of (3), Article 41(hereinafter referred to as “SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)”) |
| (d) | Operations described in the item of (4), Article 41(hereinafter referred to as “Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)”) |
| (e) | Operations described in the item of (5), Article 41 (hereinafter referred to as “Credit Insurance Programs”) |
| (f) | Operations described in the item of (6), Article 41 (hereinafter referred to as “JBIC Operations”) |
| (g) | Operations described in Article 16 of the Act on Special Measures Concerning Smooth Implementation of Realignment of United States Forces in Japan (hereinafter referred to as “Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan”) |
| (h) | Operations described in the item of (7), Article 41 (hereinafter referred to as “Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses(*)”) |
| (i) | Operations described in Article 6 of the Bill on the Promotion of Businesses to Develop and Manufacture Energy and Environmentally Friendly Products (hereinafter referred to as “Operations to Facilitate Specific Businesses Promotions”) |
2. Significant accounting policies
(a) Securities
Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost based on the moving average method. Investments in affiliates are carried at cost based on the moving average method. Available-for-sale securities, which have a readily determinable fair value are stated at fair value with changes in net unrealized gains or losses included directly in Net assets. Available-for-sale securities whose fair value is extremely difficult to be determined are carried at cost based on the moving average method.
(b) Valuation method for derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value. However, certain credit default swap transactions, for which neither a quoted market price nor a reliably estimated value is available and the fair value is undeterminable, are accounted for as guarantee of obligation.
(c) Depreciation basis for fixed assets
(i) Property, plant and equipment (except for lease assets)
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated under the declining balance method over their useful economic lives except for buildings (excluding installed facilities) which are depreciated under the straight-line method.
Depreciation is based on the following range of estimated useful lives:
Buildings: 2 years to 50 years
Other: 2 years to 20 years
* | Please note that “Operations to Facilitate Crisis Response” is previously described as “Crisis Response Operations”. |
- 9 -
(ii) Intangible assets (except for lease assets)
Depreciation of intangible fixed assets is computed by the straight-line method. Software used by JFC is depreciated over its useful life (5 years).
(iii) Lease Assets
Lease assets in “property, plant and equipment” or “intangible assets,” under finance leases that do not involve transfer of ownership to the lessee are depreciated under the straight-line method over the lease term. Depreciation for lease assets is calculated with zero residual value being assigned to the asset.
(d) Method of amortization for deferred charges
Bond issuance costs
Bond issuance costs are expensed as incurred.
(e) Foreign currency translation and revaluation method
JFC maintains its accounting records in Japanese yen. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are mostly translated into Japanese yen at the market exchange rate prevailing at the fiscal year end.
(f) Allowance for Loan losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained in accordance with internally established standards. The allowance for claims on debtors who are legally bankrupt (“Bankrupt borrowers”) or substantially bankrupt (“Substantially bankrupt borrowers”) is provided based on the outstanding balance after the write-offs described in Note 5(e) and the deductions of the amount expected to be collected through the disposal of collateral and execution of guarantees.
The allowance for claims on debtors who are not legally bankrupt but are likely to become bankrupt (“Potentially bankrupt borrowers”) is provided based on an assessment of the overall solvency of the debtors after deducting the amount expected to be collected through the disposal of collateral and the execution of guarantees.
The allowance for claims on debtors other than Bankrupt borrowers, Substantially bankrupt borrowers and Potentially bankrupt borrowers is provided primarily based on the default rate, which is calculated based on the actual defaults during a certain period in the past.
The allowance for possible losses on specific overseas loans is provided based on the expected loss amount taking into consideration the political and economic situations of these countries.
All claims are assessed initially by the operational departments and subsequently by risk evaluation departments based on internal rules for self-assessment of asset quality. The risk evaluation department, which is independent from the operational departments, reviews these self-assessments, and the allowance is provided based on the results of the assessments.
Write-offs of the Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations, the Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations, and the Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation) are recognized by offsetting the current allowance for loan losses for the amount of the claim deemed uncollectable against the year end claim amount balance; the previous allowance for loan losses and claim balances are reversed at the start of the fiscal year, upon approval received from the competent minister based on Article 4 of the “Ministerial Ordinance Concerning Accounting for the Japan Finance Corporation”.
The Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations and the Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Programs (Guarantee-type Operation) have debtors whose condition could not be determined through the self-assessment as of the base date due to the temporary difficulties in the reassessment and physical inspection of guarantees and collateral as well as ascertaining the accurate status of debtors resulting from the impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake. In order to consider credit risk from the earthquake disaster, an allowance for loan losses is calculated by reasonably estimating future losses and making appropriate adjustments, such as to future outlooks, for the loan loss ratio of borrower classifications given as of the base date.
- 10 -
(g) Reserve for compensation losses
The “reserve for compensation losses” provides for losses based on the estimated amounts of future losses attributed to compensation security contracts.
(h) Provision for bonuses
The “provision for bonuses” is calculated and provided for based on the estimated amounts of future payments attributable to the services that have been rendered by employees to the date of the balance sheet.
(i) Provision for directors’ bonuses
The “provision for directors’ bonuses” is calculated and provided for based on the estimated amounts of future payments attributable to the services that have been rendered by directors to the date of the balance sheet.
(j) Provision for retirement benefits
The “provision for retirement benefits” represents the future payment for pension and retirement benefits to employees, and is accrued based on the projected benefit obligations and the estimated pension plan assets at the fiscal period end.
Unrecognized prior service costs are recognized as income or expense by the straight-line method over a certain number of years; 10 years within the average remaining work period of employees at the year of occurrence.
Unrecognized actuarial differences are recognized as income or expense from the following fiscal year by the straight-line method over a period up to a maximum of 10 years within the average remaining service period of employees of the respective fiscal year.
(k) Provision for directors’ retirement benefits
The “provision for directors’ retirement benefits”, which provides for future retirement pension payment to directors, corporate auditors and executive officers, is recognized at the amount accrued at the end of the respective fiscal year.
(l) Accounting for hedges of interest rate risk
(i) Hedge accounting
JFC uses derivatives for interest rate risk hedging purposes under the deferral method.
(ii) Hedging instruments and hedged items
Hedging instruments: interest rate swaps
Hedged items: loans, borrowings, bonds and notes
(iii) Hedging policy
JFC enters into hedging transactions up to the amount of the underlying hedged assets and liabilities.
(iv) Assessment of hedge effectiveness
JFC assesses the effectiveness of designated hedges by measuring and comparing the change of fair value or cumulative change of cash flows of both hedging instruments and corresponding hedged items from the date of inception of the hedges to the assessment date.
- 11 -
(m) Accounting for hedges of foreign exchange risks
Hedge instruments used to hedge foreign exchange risks associated with various foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are accounted for using the deferral method, in accordance with the standard treatment of The Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants (JICPA) Industry Audit Committee Report No. 25.
The effectiveness of the hedging instruments described above, such as currency swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and similar transactions, used for hedging the foreign exchange risks of loans and bills discounted, borrowings, and bonds payable denominated in foreign currencies, is assessed by comparing the foreign currency position of the hedged loans and bills discounted, borrowings, and bonds payable with that of the hedging instruments. Some assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency for which currency swaps are used to hedge the foreign currency fluctuations are translated at the contracted rate if the currency swaps qualify for hedge accounting. However, assessment of effectiveness is omitted for those currency swaps.
(n) Accounting Policies for Reserve for Insurance Policy liabilities
The “reserve for insurance policy liabilities” consists of the following two items, pursuant to Article 9, Paragraph 1 of the Ministerial Ordinance Concerning Accounting for JFC. Furthermore, in accordance with Article 9, Paragraph 2 of the Ministerial Ordinance Concerning Accounting for JFC, an additional amount shall be provided for insurance policy liabilities in the event that an impediment to the fulfillment of future obligations has been confirmed.
(i) Policy reserve
The policy reserve which provides for future obligations under insurance policies has been calculated based on actuarial and statistical method.
(ii) Outstanding Claims reserve
The outstanding claims reserve represents the accumulation of the estimates for reported losses and includes provision for losses incurred but not reported, after the deduction of collectable amounts based on insurance policies.
(o) Consumption and Other Taxes
Consumption taxes and local consumption taxes (“consumption taxes”) are excluded from transaction amounts. Amounts of non-deductible consumption taxes related to property, plant and equipment are expensed as incurred.
(p) Scope of cash and cash equivalents in the statements of cash flow
Cash and cash equivalents as stated in the Statements of Cash Flow consists of cash on hand and Current deposit in “Cash and due from banks” in the Balance Sheets.

(a) | “Bankrupt loans” are loans, defined in Article 96, Paragraph 1, Item 3 and 4 of the corporate Tax Law Enforcement Ordinance (Government Ordinance No. 97), on which accrued interest income is not recognized as there is substantial uncertainty over the ultimate collectability of either principal or interest because they have been in arrears for a considerable period of time or for other reasons. |

11. Impairment losses
JFC does not have any operating assets that are subject to impairment. For idle assets, an impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the recoverable amount and the carrying value at the end of the fiscal year.
Each asset in the grouping of Idle assets that have suffered impairment is treated as an individual unit.
The recoverable value in principle is calculated using net realizable value. The net realizable value is determined by the appraisal value based on the Real Estate Appraisal Standard. For certain immaterial real estate, the net realizable value is calculated based on the index that incorporates market value.
Impairment loss is recognized for the following assets:
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010
| | | | | | | | | | |
Region | | Purpose of use | | Type | | Impairment loss (In millions of yen) | | | |

16. Financial instruments and related disclosure
Previous Fiscal Year (April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010)
1. Status of financial instruments
(1) Initiatives for financial instruments
Based on the JFC Act, we are a governmental financial institution founded for the purpose of supplementing the financing conducted by general financial institutions and contributing to the development of the Japanese and global economic society and the improvement of the lifestyle of citizens.
The budget required for governmental financial operations is decided on by the Diet of Japan, and business plans and financial plans (funds for fiscal investment and loans, bonds, general accounting investment, equity participation, etc.) are appended to the budget and submitted to the Diet of Japan.
These operations are classified into Micro Business and Individual Operations; Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations; SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation); Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation); Credit Insurance Programs; JBIC Operations and Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses. Accounts are made for each classification (“operation account”) for accounting treatment.
The funds procured by JFC for fiscal investment and loans, bonds, general accounting investment are managed separately by each operation account. In principle, it is assumed that funds intended for one operation account will not be used for another operation account. Accordingly, asset and liability management is conducted for the risks associated with financial assets and liabilities for each operation account. Note that financial instruments that can be used for the management of surplus funds are limited to extremely safe instruments such as Japanese government bonds, etc., as stipulated by The JFC Act.
The Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations is for operations, such as business fund financing and educational loans, etc., aimed at micro businesses and individuals. To conduct these operations funds are raised through the borrowing of fiscal investment funds and loans and the issuing of bonds. ALM (asset and liability management) is conducted for financial assets and liabilities in this account to ensure that interest rate fluctuations do not have an adverse effect on these operations.
In the Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations, the main operations consist of supplementing the financing provided by general financial institutions and supplying long-term funds at a low interest rate aimed at businesses engaged in agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food manufacturing, etc., in order to contribute to the sustainable and robust development of the agriculture, forestry, fisheries business and ensure the stable supply of food. To conduct these operations funds are raised through borrowing from fiscal investment funds and loans and the issuing of bonds. Asset and liability management is conducted for the risks inherent in the financial assets and liabilities in this account.
In the Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation), a stable supply of long-term funds is provided to supplement private sector financial institutions in order to support the growth and development of SMEs. To conduct these operations, funds are raised primarily through indirect financing by borrowing from the government and direct financing through the issuing of bonds. Also, derivative transactions are conducted for the purpose of mitigating risk inherent in foreign currency denominated transactions.
Operations in the Account for Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation) are conducted for the purpose of promoting the supply of unsecured funds to SMEs from private sector financial institutions, etc., utilizing securitization and fostering the securitization market for SME loan claims. To conduct these operations funds are raised through direct financing through the issuing of bonds.
In the Account for Credit Insurance Programs, insurance is provided for the guarantees related to the liabilities on SME loans. To conduct these operations funds are raised through capital investment from the government.
The purpose of the Account for JBIC Operations is to conduct the financing required for “Promoting overseas development and acquisition of strategically important natural resources to Japan”, “Maintaining and improving the international competitiveness of Japanese industries”, “Promoting overseas projects for conserving global environment, such as mitigating global warming”, and “Taking appropriate measures with respect to disruptions to international financial order”. Principal operations consist of export loans, import loans, investment financing, financing for business development and capital investment (including guarantees except for “capital investment”). To conduct these operations funds are raised through borrowing from fiscal investment funds and loans and the issuing of bonds. ALM (asset and liability management) is conducted for financial assets and liabilities in this account that are subject to interest-rate and currency fluctuations to ensure that interest-rate and currency fluctuations do not have an adverse effect on these operations. Also, derivative transactions are conducted for the purpose of mitigating risk inherent in foreign currency denominated transactions.
- 15 -
In the Account for Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses, financing operations including 1) loans, 2) credit insurance underwriting (a certain portion of compensation paid by JFC to cover losses incurred by specified financial institutions on loans, including equity participation), and 3) interest subsidies (interest subsidies provided by JFC to a specified financial institutions for loans, etc., conducted by specified financial institutions that received a credit facility from JFC ) are conducted for financial institutions specified by the competent minister for domestic and global financial disturbance recognized by the competent minister when a crisis such as a large-scale disaster occurs. To conduct these operations, the financing required for 1) loans is procured through the borrowing from Fiscal Investment and Loan Program (“FILP”), and the issuing of government guaranteed bonds. The loan period and borrowing period are equal, and the financing cost is covered by the interest on the loans. The financing required for 2) credit insurance underwriting, and 3) interest subsidies is procured through equity participation and grants from the government.
(2) Types of financial instruments and risks
The financial assets and liabilities owned by JFC are managed in separate operation accounts, and the risks associated with the financial assets and liabilities contained within each account are described below.
a. Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans to micro business and individuals in Japan, and the financial liabilities mainly include borrowings and bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims on business and educational loans from deterioration in creditworthiness or fluctuation in the value of the real estate-collateral of the entity to which credit is granted.
For this operation account, JFC strives to make a proper financing decision in the financial screening process, conducts detailed claims management based on the condition of the borrower after financing is provided, uses statistical management methods, and increases the sophistication of management methods employed. In addition, risks are distributed as the credit portfolio is comprised of small business and educational loans that do not concentrate credit on a specified region or industry. However, based on future economic trends and changes in the business climate of borrowers, the number of borrowers with deteriorated creditworthiness could increase, bringing about requests for financial support including loan restructuring, causing an increase in uncollectable claims and credits costs for this account.
(b) Market risk
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities. However, not all cash flows can be matched, so some gaps arise between assets and liabilities. This account could incur losses from the interest rate risk caused by this gap.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and the FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. To maintain daily cash flows, proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with several private sector financial institutions have been taken, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
b. Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans to agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food businesses, and financial liabilities mainly include borrowings, bonds, and entrusted funds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims on credit to agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food businesses from deterioration in creditworthiness or fluctuation in the value of the real estate-collateral of the entity to which credit is granted. For this reason, efforts are made to maintain and improve the soundness of assets through proper financial screening and account management throughout the year.
However, among the majority of borrowers that make up this account, there are many small businesses in the agriculture, forestry, fisheries sector. These businesses are especially susceptible to natural conditions such as weather, etc., so depending on future conditions, uncollectable claims and credits costs for this account could increase.
- 16 -
(b) Market risk
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the duration of assets and liabilities. However, due to characteristics such as long redemption periods and fixed interest rates that are required by agriculture, forestry, and fisheries policy, duration gaps do arise. This account could incur losses from the interest rate risk caused by this gap.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and the FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Cash flows are assessed and proper measures are taken, including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions, to maintain daily cash flows, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
c. Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans and securities for SMEs, and financial liabilities mainly include borrowings and bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The following operations are conducted in this account: (1) Loans to SMEs, (2) Acquisition of bonds issued by SMEs, (3) Securitization of loan claims and bonds of SMEs, (4) Partial guarantee of loan claims for private sector financial institutions and partial guarantee of securitized financial products. Because credit is provided to SMEs, this account could incur uncollectable claims and losses caused by deterioration in creditworthiness or fluctuation in the value of the real estate-collateral of the SMEs to which credit is granted.
(b) Market risk
The main types of market risk associated with this account are interest rate risk and exchange rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities. However, not all cash flows can be matched, so some gaps arise between assets and liabilities. This account could suffer losses from the interest rate risk caused by this gap.
The exchange rate risk associated with the issue of foreign currency-denominated bonds also applies to this account. However this risk is fully hedged through currency swaps.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions are taken to maintain daily cash flows, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
d. Account for Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)
The financial assets in this account mainly include securities for SMEs, and financial liabilities mainly include bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The following operations are conducted in this account: (1) Receipt and securitization of loan claims for private sector financial institutions (2) Partial purchase of securitized instruments. Since credit is provided to SMEs in this account, the account risks losses arising from uncollectable claims caused by deterioration in creditworthiness of the SMEs to which credit is granted and the resulting drop in value of securitized instruments owned.
(b) Market risk
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Proper measures, including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions, are taken to maintain daily cash flows, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
- 17 -
e. Account for Credit Insurance Programs
The financial assets in this account mainly include Due from bank. Long-term and stable funds such as investments from the Japanese government are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted.
f. Account for JBIC Operations
The assets in this account mainly include loans to borrowers in Japan and overseas, and securities, and liabilities mainly include borrowings and bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that the account will suffer losses if the financial condition of the borrower deteriorates and the value of assets (including off-balance sheet assets) decrease or disappear.
The credit risks associated with this account include sovereign risk, country risk, and corporate risk. Characteristic of support for overseas economic transactions conducted in this account, much financing is conducted for overseas governments, governmental institutions, and overseas corporations. Much of the credit risk associated with the credit provided typically consists of sovereign or country risk.
As a result, if the financial condition of the individual borrower significantly deteriorates due to political and economic trends in the borrower’s country or region, the performance and financial condition of these operations can be adversely affected.
(Note) Sovereign risk refers to risk associated with credit supplied to foreign governments, country risk refers to risk associated with the country in which the corporation is located, and corporate risk refers to the risk associated with credit supplied to corporations.
(b) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the value of assets and liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets) will fluctuate and losses will be incurred, or profits derived from assets and liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets) will fluctuate and losses will be incurred due to the fluctuation of various market risk factors such as interest rates, exchange rates, etc.
The market risk associated with this account mainly consists of exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, and losses could be suffered from these risks from market fluctuations. However, in principle, these risks are mitigated through interest rate swaps, currency swaps, and forward exchange transactions.
In this account hedge accounting is used for interest rate hedges, where the hedging instrument is interest rate swaps to hedge the market fluctuation risk associated with loans, borrowed money and bonds. The effectiveness of the hedges is assessed by measuring and comparing the change in fair value or cumulative change in cash flows of both hedging instruments and corresponding hedged items from the date of inception of the hedges to the assessment date.
In this account hedge accounting is used for foreign exchange hedges, where currency swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts are used to hedge items such as loans, borrowings, and bonds for exchange rate fluctuation risk. The effectiveness of the hedging currency-swaps and forward contracts, hedging the foreign exchange risks of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, is assessed by comparing the foreign currency position of the hedged monetary assets and liabilities with that of the hedging instruments.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds, such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds, are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted, with the result that JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to market disturbances and unexpected events.
g. Account for Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans and financial liabilities against designated financial institutions, and the financial liabilities include borrowings. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The main financial assets in this account are loans of funds to designated financial institutions that are required to conduct Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses. The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims due to deterioration in creditworthiness of the designated financial institution.
JFC is liable for compensation to cover losses incurred by designated financial institution on loans to third parties. This account could incur losses if the payment of compensation fluctuates from the projected compensation payments caused by significant changes in the creditworthiness or economic condition of the third party business.
(b) Market risk
The operations of this account consist of loans to designated financial institutions, and fiscal investment and loans and issues of government-backed bonds are used for financing. Interest rate risk is believed to be limited because the loan period and borrowing period are equal, and the financing cost is covered by the interest on the loans.
- 18 -
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal investment and loans and government-backed bonds are used to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Sufficient short-term liquidity is secured for compensation payment funds towards designated financial institutions, and liquidity risk is believed to be limited. However borrowings are exposed to liquidity risk if an unexpected event occurs and payment cannot be made on the payment date.
(3) Risk management structure for financial instruments
JFC has a Corporate Governance Committee established to properly conduct management in order to comprehensively handle risks faced, including risks associated with financial instruments, to ensure the sustained and stable realization of the financing policies of the function.
For each type of risk, management policies and procedures have been created to handle the specific types of credit risks, market risks, and liquidity risks for financing associated with each operation, and a structure has been established to smoothly handle these tasks in each operation. The risk management structure for each type of operation is described below.
a. Micro Business and Individual Operations
The risk management structure of these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations, JFC has a structure to manage the credit risk of loans through (i) individual credit management, (ii) asset self assessment, and (iii) quantification of credit risk in accordance with regulations concerning financing operations and claims management operations, and management regulations concerning credit risk. This credit risk management is conducted by the credit department and risk management department as well as each branch office, and business operations meetings are regularly held with the General Manager acting as chairman to conduct discussions and reporting.
The specific risk management method is described below.
(i) Individual credit management
The financial screening process associated with these operations to support appropriate financing decisions is based on consideration of the borrower’s financial condition in terms of eligibility for financing, validity of the use of funds, profitability and sustainability of the business, as well as the business’s qualitative aspects such as technical capabilities, selling power, and the future potential of the business.
Efforts are made to carefully manage claims after financing has been conducted through assessment of the future business outlook and repayment capacity.
(ii) Asset self assessment
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct self assessment. In this process, first stage assessments are conducted by the branch offices, second stage assessments by the credit department, and internal inspections by the auditing department. The results of this self assessment are used to properly estimate write-off and allowance, and are used internally for the constant assessment of the credit conditions of the operations. They are also actively used for the disclosure of the quality of assets to enhance the transparency of financial position for the operations.
(iii) Quantification of credit risk
A credit scoring model for borrowers based on analysis of transaction data collected over a number of years has been developed for these operations. Starting in Fiscal Year 2007, credit scores have been assigned to borrowers, and these scores have been used for screening procedures and to monitor credit portfolios since Fiscal Year 2008. The reliability of this scoring model is ensured through continual recalibration based on annual inspections of the model’s accuracy.
In addition, to assess the overall risk of the portfolio, efforts are made to quantify credit risk through methods that take into consideration the extremely diversified nature of the portfolios for these operations.
(b) Market risk management
These operations are subject to the interest rate risk caused by the cash flow gap between assets and liabilities, and the operations could incur losses caused by this risk. Efforts are made to assess interest rate risk in these operations through methods such as maturity ladder analysis and duration analysis, and appropriate risk management is carried out to reduce interest rate risk by diversifying the year of issue for bonds.
- 19 -
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
To conduct proper risk management in these operations, long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Cash flows are assessed and overdraft facility accounts are established with multiple private sector financial institutions to maintain daily cash flows.
b. Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations, credit risk is properly managed through (i) individual credit management, (ii) credit rating, (iii) asset self assessment, and (iv) quantification of credit risk.
(i) Individual credit management
The screening process for these operations includes screening of the probability of repayment based on eligibility for financing, validity of the financing conditions, and the future potential of the business. Particularly, screening for the certainty of repayment is conducted with a screening standard that gives sufficient consideration to the specific industry (agriculture, forestry, and fisheries) risks. This consists of close examination of the creditworthiness, investment risk, and investment effect of the borrower, and comprehensive verification and confirmation of repayment ability that takes into account feasibility of the payment and repayment plan, and suitability of financing conditions.
Efforts are also made to continuously assess the customer’s economic condition, and maintain and improve the soundness of loan assets through active and detailed support activities.
(ii) Credit rating
These operations strive to maintain and improve the quality of loan assets by using ratings for early discovery of customers with business conditions that could be cause for concern in order to enact business support. Ratings are assigned based on a model built using internal data. The reliability of this scoring model is ensured through continual recalibration based on annual inspection of the model’s discrimination accuracy.
The credit ratings are also used for individual credit management, asset self assessment, and quantification of credit risk as the basis for credit risk management. For this reason reassessment of the credit ratings system is conducted as required.
(iii) Asset self assessment
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct self assessment.
In this process, first stage assessments are conducted by the branch offices, second stage assessments by the credit department, and internal inspections by the auditing department.
The results of this self assessment are used to appropriately estimate write-off and allowance, and are used internally for the constant assessment of the credit conditions of the operations. They are also actively used for the disclosure of the quality of assets to enhance the transparency of financial position for the operations.
(iv) Quantification of credit risk
To assess the overall risk of the portfolio, credit risks are quantified for internal management in these operations.
(b) Market risk management
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk. It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the duration of assets and liabilities. However, due to characteristics such as long redemption periods and fixed interest rates that are required by agriculture, forestry, fisheries policy, duration gaps arise. Efforts are made to assess interest rate risk in these operations through methods such as maturity ladder analysis and duration analysis, and to conduct proper risk management by attempting to reduce interest rate risk through the provision of long-term financing.
(c) Liquidity risk management related with fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal investment and loans and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted.
Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions have been taken to maintain daily cash flows for proper risk management.
- 20 -
c. SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
(i) Individual credit management
For financing operations, the financing decision is conducted upon assessment of the situation of company applying for funds from a fair and neutral position and verification of the certainty of repayment and validity of use of funds.
Since these financing operations specialize in long-term funding for businesses, in the screening process, verification assessment is made of the likelihood of long-term repayment focusing on business profits as well as on overall judgment being made on the certainty of repayment.
An overall judgment of the company’s enterprise power is made, not limited to a quantitative analysis focusing on the financial statements, but taking into consideration various management activities including the combination of people, money, and other factors that makes up the company and the future prospects of the company that has applied for funds.
We strive to continuously assess the situation after financing has been granted through review of financial reports and regular company visits. Based on the classification of the borrower or otherwise as required, and after consideration of the results of management improvement plans, follow ups will be conducted as required to define transaction policy.
In addition, in order to support the growth and development of the borrower, we will strive to give as much feedback as possible on the screening results and provide consultation support to help resolve management issues. In particular, we will support companies struggling to respond to changes in the business environment by formulating business improvement plans through methods such as preparing and submitting management improvement proposals.
(ii) Credit rating
A credit scoring model based on analysis of transaction data collected over the years for borrowers has been developed for these operations and has been used in the screening process. In Fiscal Year 2002 this tool was developed for credit rating, and a credit rating system based on a new scoring model was introduced in Fiscal Year 2007 to improve default determination accuracy. In this manner, credit risk is being adequately evaluated.
(iii) Asset self assessment
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct self assessment. Classification of borrowers is being conducted based on the new credit rating system introduced in Fiscal Year 2007.
First stage assessments of borrower classification and asset type are conducted by the front offices and second stage assessments by a separate credit department. An auditing department independent from the other sections then conducts an internal inspection to verify the accuracy of assessments.
(iv) Quantification of credit risk
In addition to the individual credit management described above, from 2005 we started monitoring and quantifying credit risks to assess the overall risk of the credit portfolio to further improve the efficiency of financing operations and the quantification and management of credit risk.
(v) Credit risk management for securitization support operations
In the securitization support operations since July, 2004, we have used scoring models such as our proprietary creditworthiness measurement tool which was developed based on the analysis of transaction data collected over the years for SMEs, and a Credit Risk Database (CRD) to conduct screening. In addition, statistical methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are used to accurately assess the overall credit risk for pools of claims to establish a proper guarantee rate based on credit risk.
After guarantees have been conducted, accurate assessment of credit risk is conducted through confirmation of the repayment status, submission of financial reports, and regular reassessment of the pool of claims.
(b) Market risk management
(i) Interest rate risk
The main type of market risk associated with these operations is interest rate risk. It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities. However, not all cash flows can be matched, so some gaps do arise between assets and liabilities. Efforts are made to assess interest rate risk in these operations through methods such as maturity ladder analysis and duration analysis, and conduct proper risk management by attempting to reduce interest rate risk by diversifying the year of issue for bonds.
- 21 -
(ii) Exchange rate risk
It is JFC policy to fully hedge through use of currency swaps, the exchange rate risk of issues of foreign-currency denominated debt securities. The counterparty risk associated with swaps is managed through regular assessment of the fair value and risk exposure of the swap transaction for counterparties, and the creditworthiness of counterparties.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted.
Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions, have been taken to maintain daily cash flows for proper risk management.
d. Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
In the securitization support operations, we use scoring models such as our proprietary creditworthiness measurement tool developed based on analysis of transaction data collected over a number of years for SMEs, and a CRD (Credit Risk Database) to conduct screening. In addition, statistical methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are used to accurately assess the overall credit risk for pools of claims to establish a proper return based on credit risk.
(b) Market risk management
The main type of market risk associated with these operations is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities, and we believe that interest rate risk is limited.
(c) Liquidity risk management related with fund procurement
It is believed that liquidity risk is limited because a system has been adopted to minimize liquidity risk and sufficient funding support can be expected from the government.
e. Credit Insurance Programs
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
Financing is provided from government funds. Efforts are made for proper risk management through the assessment of cash flows.
f. JBIC Operations
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
The basis of credit risk management is centered on individual credit management based on the creditworthiness of the borrower during the credit approval process.
When a new credit application is processed, the relevant finance departments (sales promotion department) and credit departments collect and analyze information on the borrower. The overseas representative offices also play a part in collecting information on foreign governments and corporations. Credit appraisal takes place based on the information that has been gathered and analyzed, with the different departments ensuring appropriate check throughout the process, leading to the final decision by the management.
For lending to foreign governments and corporations, JFC makes most use of its position as a public institution and exchanges views and information with governments and other authorities in recipient countries, international institutions such as the IMF and the World Bank, other regional development banks and official export credit agencies as well as private financial institutions in the industrial countries. Using all these channels, JFC evaluates sovereign or country risk (risk in addition to corporate risk associated with the country in which the corporation is located) based on a broad range of information on government and government agency borrowers as well as political and economic conditions in their countries.
The relevant finance departments and credit departments conduct proper credit risk management based on the credit risk rating system for segmented risk categories and the asset self assessment system based on the Financial Inspection Manual. In addition, an Integrated Risk Management Committee is held regularly to report the status of credit management to the management. The credit management situation is also checked by an independent auditing department.
- 22 -
In addition, a claims protection mechanism exists based on an international framework unique to official creditors, that is not contained in private sector financial institutions, for official claims on foreign governments. This mechanism consists of international financial assistance upon international approval by the Paris Club, an international group focusing on debt, to allow the debtor country to continue debt repayment when the debtor country becomes temporarily unable to service its debt due to economic conditions. As part of this international financial assistance, the debtor country conducts an economic reform program upon agreement with the IMF in order to secure the ability to sustainably service its debt. In view of JFC’s position as a public financial institution, it will use the framework of the Paris Club to preserve its official claims on foreign governments.
Besides the individual credit management outlined above, credit risks are quantified to assess the overall risk of the portfolio in these operations. To quantify credit risks, it is important to take into account the characteristic of the loan portfolio, that there are a significant proportion of long-term loans and loans involving sovereign risk or country risk. Also to be taken into account is the mechanism of securing assets, such as the framework of international financial assistance to debtor countries through the Paris Club, which is unique to official creditors. This account uses a unique model to quantify the credit risk taking account of the above explained elements and measures amount of credit risk, which are utilized for credit risk management.
(b) Market risk management
ALM is used to manage exchange rate risk and interest rate risk for these operations. Market risk management protocols contain detailed stipulations of risk management methods and procedures, which are used by the ALM Committee to assess and confirm the execution of ALM, and for discussions concerning future responses. In addition, monitoring is conducted through gap analysis and interest rate sensitivity analysis to comprehensively assess the interest and terms of financial assets and liabilities. The results are regularly reported to the ALM Committee
The basic policy for managing exchange rate risk and interest rate risk in these operations is described below.
(i) Exchange rate risk
Foreign currency-denominated loans conducted in these operations involve risks related to exchange rate fluctuations. We have a consistent policy of managing this risk by fully hedging this risk exposure through the use of currency swaps and forward foreign exchange transactions.
(ii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from exposure to market interest rate fluctuations for yen-denominated loan and foreign currency-denominated loan operations and the policy for managing interest rate risk is described below.
Yen-denominated loan operations
For the most part, funding for yen-denominated loans is managed at fixed-rate interest. Currently, interest rate risk for yen-denominated loans is limited since maturity of loans and the related funding arrangements are generally matched. In addition, swaps are used to hedge interest rate risk for portions of loans that are thought to have high exposures to interest rate fluctuation risk.
‚ Foreign currency-denominated loan operations
For foreign currency-denominated loan operations, interest rate risk is hedged through the consistent policy of using interest rate swaps and managing funds with floating interest rates for both loans and related funding arrangements.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are used to finance these operations and deposits are not accepted.
Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions are taken to maintain daily cash flows for proper risk management.
(d) Derivatives transactions
A protocol of internal checks with separate divisions executing transactions, assessing the effectiveness of hedges, and conducting office management has been established for derivatives transactions, and these transactions are conducted according to derivatives-related regulations.
- 23 -
g. Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct asset self assessment. In the asset self assessment, an inspection is conducted by the auditing department.
(b) Market risk management
These operations consist of loans to designated financial institutions, and fiscal investment and loans and issues of government-backed bonds are used for financing. The loan period and borrowing period are equal.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal investment and loans and government-backed bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. In addition, the loan period and borrowing period are equal. Sufficient short-term liquidity is secured for compensation payment funds towards designated financial institutions, and liquidity risk is believed to be limited. In addition, continual efforts are being made to make financing plans more sophisticated and minimize liquidity risk.

(4) Supplementary explanation concerning fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of financial instruments includes amounts based on market value and amounts that have been reasonably estimated when no market value is available. Set valuation inputs are used for the calculation of this amount, and if different valuation inputs are used the resulting amount could vary.
2. Fair value of financial instruments
The amount in the balance sheets at March 31, 2010, and the related fair value, and difference is as follows. Note that unlisted securities whose fair value is extremely difficult to be determined are not included in the following chart (refer to Note 3).

(Note 1) | Valuation methodologies used for estimating fair values for financial instruments |
- 25 -
Assets
(1) Cash and due from banks
For Due from banks that do not mature or have a maturity under 3 months, the carrying amount is used as fair value because fair value resembles the carrying amount approximates to the fair value. For due from banks that have a maturity over 3 months, fair value is based on the present value calculated by discounting future cash flow by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the appropriate deposit term.
(2) Securities
Market value is used for securities. However for corporate bonds in the Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation), the carrying amount is used as fair value because fair value approximates the carrying amount.
Notes for securities by purpose of holding are found in “note 17. Market Value of Securities”.
(3) Loans and bills discounted
Loans, including loans with variable interest rates and loans with fixed interest rates, are calculated as follows.
a. Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest by the interest rate assumed to be used if a new loan were conducted based on the type and period of loan.
However for claims that are not performed or could default, allowance for loan losses is provided based on the expected collectable amount from the collateral or guarantee. Fair value approximates the amount on the balance sheet on the closing date net of the allowance for loan losses, and therefore, this amount is used for fair value.
- 26 -
b. Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the risk-reflected principal and interest that incorporates risk by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the type of borrower and period of loan.
c. Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated for borrowers in possibility of bankruptcy by discounting the risk-adjusted principal and interest by type of borrower using the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate). However for obligations on bankrupt borrowers or substantially bankrupt borrowers, allowance for loan losses is provided based on the expected collectable amount from the collateral or guarantee. Fair value resembles the amount on the balance sheet on the closing date net of allowance for loan losses, and therefore, this amount is used for fair value.
d. Account for Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)
Not applicable
e. Account for Credit Insurance Programs
Not applicable
f. Account for JBIC Operations
For loans with variable interest rates an amount calculated by the floating rate note method to reflect market interest rates over the short term is used for fair value.
For loans with fixed interest, the total principal and interest is discounted by a risk free rate that incorporates the default ratio and coverage ratio to calculate fair value. However for obligations on bankrupt borrowers, substantially bankrupt borrowers, and potentially bankrupt borrowers a provision for bad debt is calculated based on the expected collectable amount from the collateral or guarantee. Fair value approximates the amount on the balance sheet on the closing date after a deduction has been made for the provision for bad debt, so this amount is used for fair value.
g. Account for Crisis Response Operations
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest by type of borrower and period of loan using the interest rate estimated from the market yield of bonds issued by the borrower.
Liabilities
(1) Borrowings
Borrowings with variable interest rates indicates that short-term market interest rates and the credit conditions of JFC are not significantly altered by borrowings. Therefore, the carrying amount is used as fair value because it is believed that the carrying amount approximates the fair value. For borrowings with a fixed interest rate, in principle, fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest of the borrowings by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the set period of loan.
(2) Bonds payable
Market value is used for fair value of bonds. However, bonds that are subject to hedging with forward contracts are treated as yen-denominated bonds with fixed interest, and the fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest of the borrowings by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate).
(3) Entrusted funds
Fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest of the entrusted fund by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the set period.
Derivative transactions
Derivative transactions are discussed under note 18 “Derivative transactions”.
- 27 -
(Note 2) | For credit insurance underwriting, the credit decision is conducted by a specified financial institution, and it is the structure for JFC not to participate in the credit decision for the individual subject to compensation at the time of loan, and therefore JFC does not retain the financial data of the individuals subject to compensation. Accordingly, it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined. |
The amount of compensation underwritten for compensation security contract is as follows.
Balance of compensation underwritten: ¥1,242,750 million.
Compensation loss reserve: ¥87,310 million.
(Note 3) Financial instruments that are recognized to be extremely difficult to be determined fair value are as follows.
They are not included in “Assets, (2) Securities” or “Liabilities, (1) Borrowings”
| | | | |
| | (In millions of yen) | |
Classification | | Carrying amount on balance sheet | |
1) Unlisted stocks (*1) | | ¥ | 22,529 | |
2) Corporate bonds (specified asset-backed securities) (*2) | | | 2,131 | |
3) Other securities (trust beneficiary securities) (*2) | | | 3,242 | |
4) Partnership investments (*3) | | | 23,780 | |
5) Borrowings from general account of the national budget (*4) | | | 131,300 | |
6) Borrowings from the FILP special account (investment account) of the national budget (*5) | | | 770 | |
| | | | |
Total | | ¥ | 183,754 | |
| | | | |
(*1) | Since unlisted stocks do not have quoted market prices available and fair value is extremely difficult to be determined, fair values are not stated. |
(*2) | Corporate bonds (specified asset-backed securities) and other securities (trust beneficiary securities) do not have a market value. |
These are securities issues backed by loan claims on SMEs originating from multiple financial institutions. The following steps are followed when constructing the subordination structure for the securities:
(1) First, groups of loan claims from the financial institutions are put into sub-pools, and the most subordinated section is removed;
(2) The remainder of the sub-pool besides the most subordinated section is treated as an amalgamate and divided into levels of senior and subordinate
For this reason, to evaluate the fair value of other securities (trust beneficiary securities) owned by JFC that have been amalgamated , the individual financial data for the borrowers that back the securities issue is required. Because JFC is not structured to continuously acquire this data, fair value is extremely difficult to be determined and is not stated.
(*3) | For partnership investments composed of unlisted stocks that do not have quoted market prices available and for which fair value is extremely difficult to be determined fair values are not stated. |
(*4) | For borrowings from general account of the national budget, fair values are not stated because it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined because no redemption period is stipulated and it is not possible to reasonably estimate future cash flows. |
(*5) | For borrowings from the FILP special account (investment account) of the national budget, fair values are not stated because it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined for the following reason: an interest rate is not set at the time of borrowing, as this type of borrowing consists of a scheme in which a lump interest payment is made after the final installment payment redemption and it is not possible to reasonably estimate future cash flows. |

Current Fiscal Year (April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011)
1. Status of financial instruments
(1) Initiatives for financial instruments
Based on the JFC Act, we are a governmental financial institution founded for the purpose of supplementing the financing conducted by general financial institutions and contributing to the development of the Japanese and global economic society and the improvement of the lifestyle of citizens.
The budget required for governmental financial operations is decided on by the Diet of Japan, and business plans and financial plans (funds for the fiscal investment and loans, bonds, general accounting investment, equity participation, etc.) are appended to the budget and submitted to the Diet of Japan.
These operations are classified into Micro Business and Individual Operations; Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations; SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation); Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation); Credit Insurance Programs; JBIC Operations, Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan; Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses; and Operations to Facilitate Specific Businesses Promotion. Accounts are made for each classification (“operation account”) for accounting treatment.
The funds procured by JFC for the fiscal investment and loans, bonds, general accounting investment are managed separately by each operation account. In principle, it is assumed that funds intended for one operation account will not be used for another operation account. Accordingly, ALM is conducted for the risks associated with financial assets and liabilities for each operation account. Note that financial instruments that can be used for the management of surplus funds are limited to extremely safe instruments such as Japanese government bonds, etc., as stipulated by The JFC Act.
The Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations is for operations, such as business fund financing and educational loans, etc., aimed at micro businesses and individuals. To conduct these operations funds are raised through the borrowing of fiscal investment funds and loans and the issuing of bonds. ALM is conducted for financial assets and liabilities in this account to ensure that interest rate fluctuations do not have an adverse effect on these operations.
In the Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations, the main operations consist of supplementing the financing provided by general financial institutions and supplying long-term funds at a low interest rate aimed at businesses engaged in agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food manufacturing, etc., in order to contribute to the sustainable and robust development of the agriculture, forestry, and fisheries business and ensure the stable supply of food. To conduct these operations funds are raised through borrowing from fiscal investment funds and loans and the issuing of bonds. ALM is conducted for the risks inherent in the financial assets and liabilities in this account.
In the Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation), a stable supply of long-term funds is provided to supplement private sector financial institutions in order to support the growth and development of SMEs. To conduct these operations, funds are raised primarily through indirect financing by borrowing from the government and direct financing through the issuing of bonds. Also, derivative transactions are conducted for the purpose of mitigating risk inherent in foreign currency denominated transactions.
Operations in the Account for Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation) are conducted for the purpose of promoting the supply of unsecured funds to SMEs from private sector financial institutions, etc., utilizing securitization and fostering the securitization market for SME loan claims. To conduct these operations funds are raised through direct financing through the issuing of bonds.
In the Account for Credit Insurance Programs, insurance is provided for the guarantees related to the liabilities on SME loans. To conduct these operations funds are raised through capital investment from the government.
The purpose of the Account for JBIC Operations is to conduct the financing required for “Promoting overseas development and acquisition of strategically important natural resources to Japan”, “Maintaining and improving the international competitiveness of Japanese industries”, “Promoting overseas projects for conserving the global environment, such as mitigating global warming”, and “Taking appropriate measures with respect to disruptions to international financial order”. Principal operations consist of providing export loans, import loans, investment financing, financing for business development and capital investment (including guarantees except for “capital investment”). To conduct these operations funds are raised through borrowing from the fiscal investment funds and loans and the issuing of bonds. ALM is conducted for financial assets and liabilities in this account that are subject to interest-rate and currency fluctuations to ensure that interest-rate and currency fluctuations do not have an adverse effect on these operations. Also, derivative transactions are conducted for the purpose of mitigating risk inherent in foreign currency denominated transactions.
In the Financial Account Related to the Financing Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan, this account implements, in this fiscal year, necessary operations related to providing loans to necessary projects for promoting the relocation of U.S. forces stationed in Japan. However, this account has not yet executed loans nor procured funds in this fiscal year.
In the Account for Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses, financing operations including 1) loans, 2) credit insurance underwriting (a certain portion of compensation paid by JFC to cover losses incurred by specified financial institutions on loans, including equity participation), and 3) interest subsidies (interest subsidies provided by JFC to specified financial institutions for loans, etc., conducted by specified financial institutions that received a credit facility from JFC) are conducted for financial institutions specified by the competent minister for domestic and global financial disturbance recognized by the competent minister when a crisis such as a large-scale disaster occurs. To conduct these operations, the financing required for 1) loans is procured through the borrowing from Fiscal Investment and Loan Program (“FILP”), and the issuing of government guaranteed bonds. The loan period and borrowing period are equal, and the financing cost is covered by the interest on the loans. The financing required for 2) credit insurance underwriting, and 3) interest subsidies is procured through equity participation from the government.
The Account for Operations to Facilitate Specific Businesses Promotion provides loans to designated financial institutions appointed by the competent minister in order to assist in the smooth financing of required funds for the execution of business by companies that develop or manufacture energy and environmentally friendly products. The required funds for these lending operations are financed using fiscal investment and loans. The loan period and borrowing period are equal, and the financing cost is covered by the interest on the loans.
(2) Types of financial instruments and risks
The financial assets and liabilities owned by JFC are managed in separate operation accounts, and the risks associated with the financial assets and liabilities contained within each account are described below.
a. Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans to micro business and individuals in Japan, and the financial liabilities mainly include borrowings and bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims on business and educational loans from deterioration in creditworthiness or fluctuation in the value of the real estate-collateral of the entity to which credit is granted.
For this operation account, JFC strives to make a proper financing decision in the financial screening process, conducts detailed claims management based on the condition of the borrower after financing is provided, uses statistical management methods, and increases the sophistication of management methods employed. In addition, risks are dispersed as the credit portfolio is comprised of small business and educational loans that are not concentrated in a specified region or industry. However, based on future economic trends and changes in the business climate of borrowers, the number of borrowers with deteriorated creditworthiness could increase, bringing about requests for financial support including loan restructuring, causing an increase in uncollectable claims and credits costs for this account.
(b) Market risk
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities. However, not all cash flows can be matched, so some gaps arise between assets and liabilities. This account could incur losses from the interest rate risk caused by this gap.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and the FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. To maintain daily cash flows, proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with several private sector financial institutions have been taken, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
b. Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans to agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food businesses, and financial liabilities mainly include borrowings, bonds, and entrusted funds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims on credit to agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food businesses from deterioration in creditworthiness or fluctuation in the value of the real estate-collateral of the entity to which credit is granted. For this reason, efforts are made to maintain and improve the soundness of assets through proper financial screening and account management throughout the year.
However, among the majority of borrowers that make up this account, there are many small businesses in the agriculture, forestry, fisheries sector. These businesses are especially susceptible to natural conditions such as weather, etc., so depending on future conditions, uncollectable claims and credits costs for this account could increase.

(b) Market risk
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the duration of assets and liabilities. However, due to characteristics such as long redemption periods and fixed interest rates that are required by agriculture, forestry, and fisheries policy, duration gaps do arise. This account could incur losses from the interest rate risk caused by this gap.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and the FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Cash flows are assessed and proper measures are taken, including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions, to maintain daily cash flows, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
c. Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans and securities for SMEs, and financial liabilities mainly include borrowings and bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The following operations are conducted in this account: (1) Loans to SMEs, (2) Acquisition of bonds issued by SMEs, (3) Securitization of loan claims and bonds of SMEs, and (4) Partial guarantee of loan claims for private sector financial institutions and partial guarantee of securitized financial products. Because credit is provided to SMEs, this account could incur uncollectable claims and losses caused by deterioration in creditworthiness or fluctuation in the value of the real estate-collateral of the SMEs to which credit is granted.
(b) Market risk
The main types of market risk associated with this account are interest rate risk and exchange rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities. However, not all cash flows can be matched, so some gaps arise between assets and liabilities. This account could suffer losses from the interest rate risk caused by this gap.
The exchange rate risk associated with the issue of foreign currency-denominated bonds also applies to this account. However this risk is fully hedged through currency swaps.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions are taken to maintain daily cash flows, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.
d. Account for Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)
The financial assets in this account mainly include securities for SMEs, and financial liabilities mainly include bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The following operations are conducted in this account: (1) Receipt and securitization of loan claims for private sector financial institutions and (2) Partial purchase of securitized instruments. Since credit is provided to SMEs in this account, the account risks losses arising from uncollectable claims caused by deterioration in creditworthiness of the SMEs to which credit is granted and the resulting drop in value of securitized instruments owned.
(b) Market risk
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Proper measures, including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions, are taken to maintain daily cash flows, and JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to unexpected events.

e. Account for Credit Insurance Programs
The financial assets in this account mainly include deposits and securities. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Market risk
The market risk that this account is exposed to mainly comprises interest rate risk.
However, this account is exposed to limited interest rate risk because funds procured through government investments are managed using highly stable instruments including Japanese government bonds.
(b) Liquidity risk
This account does not accept deposits and since long-term stable funds such as investments from the Japanese government are secured to finance this account, and liquidity risk is considered to be limited.
f. Account for JBIC Operations
The assets in this account mainly include loans to borrowers in Japan and overseas, and securities, and liabilities mainly include borrowings and bonds. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that the account will suffer losses if the financial condition of the borrower deteriorates and the value of assets (including off-balance sheet assets) decrease or disappear.
The credit risks associated with this account include sovereign risk, country risk, corporate risk, and project risk. Characteristic of support for overseas economic transactions conducted in this account, much financing is conducted for overseas governments, governmental institutions, and overseas corporations. Much of the credit risk associated with the credit provided typically consists of sovereign or country risk.
As a result, if the financial condition of the individual borrower significantly deteriorates due to political and economic trends in the borrower’s country or region, the performance and financial condition of these operations can be adversely affected.
(Note) Sovereign risk refers to risk associated with credit supplied to foreign governments, country risk refers to risk associated with the country in which the corporation or project is located (risk, in addition to corporate risk or project risk, associated with the country in which the corporation or the project is located), and corporate risk refers to the risk associated with credit to corporations and project risk refers to the risk that the cash flow of an underlying project will not perform as planned, in the case of project finance, where the repayment of the borrowing is primarily secured by the cash flow of the project to which credit is supplied.
(b) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the value of assets and liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets) will fluctuate and losses will be incurred, or profits derived from assets and liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets) will fluctuate and losses will be incurred due to the fluctuation of various market risk factors such as interest rates, exchange rates, etc.
The market risk associated with this account mainly consists of exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, and losses could be suffered from these risks from market fluctuations. However, in principle, these risks are mitigated through interest rate swaps, currency swaps, and forward exchange transactions.
In this account hedge accounting is used for interest rate hedges, where the hedging instruments are interest rate swaps to hedge the market fluctuation risk associated with loans, borrowed money and bonds. The effectiveness of the hedges is assessed by measuring and comparing the change in fair value or cumulative change in cash flows of both hedging instruments and corresponding hedged items from the date of inception of the hedges to the assessment date.
In this account hedge accounting is used for foreign exchange hedges, where currency swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts are used to hedge items such as loans, borrowings, and bonds for exchange rate fluctuation risk. The effectiveness of the hedging currency-swaps and forward contracts, hedging the foreign exchange risks of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, is assessed by comparing the foreign currency position of the hedged monetary assets and liabilities with that of the hedging instruments.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds, such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds, are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted, with the result that JFC considers liquidity risk to be limited. However, financing costs could increase due to market disturbances and unexpected events.
g. Financial Account Related to the Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan
As no lending was executed in this account which was launched in this fiscal year, the only financial assets held in this account are cash deposits. Accordingly there are no financial liabilities present, and the following risks are considered to be limited.
(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the value of assets and liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets) will fluctuate and losses will incurred, or profits derived from assets and liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets) will fluctuate and losses will incurred due to the fluctuation of various market risk factors such as interest rates, exchange rates, etc.
In this fiscal year, the only financial assets or liabilities held in this account are cash deposits, therefore market risk is considered to be limited.
(b) Liquidity risk
The liquidity risk of this account is considered to be limited since it does not accept deposits nor has executed a loan in this fiscal year. In addition to that, it secures stable funds from government grants only.
h. Account for Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans and financial liabilities against designated financial institutions, and the financial liabilities include borrowings. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The main financial assets in this account are loans of funds to designated financial institutions that are required to conduct Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses. The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims due to deterioration in creditworthiness of the designated financial institution.
JFC is liable for compensation to cover losses incurred by designated financial institution on loans to third parties. This account could incur losses if the payment of compensation fluctuates from the projected compensation payments caused by significant changes in the creditworthiness or economic condition of the third party business.
(b) Market risk
The operations of this account consist of loans to designated financial institutions, and fiscal investment and loans are used for financing. Interest rate risk is not present as a type of market risk because the terms and conditions of the loans and borrowings are equal and the financing cost is covered by the interest on the loans.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal investment and loans and government-backed bonds are used to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Sufficient short-term liquidity is secured for compensation payment funds towards designated financial institutions, and liquidity risk is considered to be limited. However borrowings are exposed to liquidity risk if an unexpected event occurs and payment cannot be made on the payment date.
i. Account for Operations to Facilitate Specific Businesses Promotion
The financial assets in this account mainly include loans and financial liabilities against financial institutions, and the financial liabilities include borrowings. The associated risks are described below.
(a) Credit risk
The main financial assets in this account are loans to designated financial institutions that are required to conduct specific businesses promotion operations. The associated credit risk consists of risk of losses arising from uncollectable claims due to deterioration in creditworthiness of the designated financial institution.
(b) Market risk
The operations of this account consist of loans to designated financial institutions, and fiscal investment and loans are used for financing. Interest rate risk is not present as a market risk because the terms and conditions of the loans and borrowings are equal, and the financing cost is covered by the interest on the loans.
(c) Liquidity risk
Long-term and stable fiscal investment and loans are used to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. As a result, liquidity risk is considered to be limited. However, borrowings are exposed to liquidity risk that payment cannot be made on the payment date due to unexpected events.
(3) Risk management structure for financial instruments
JFC has a Corporate Governance Committee established to properly conduct management in order to comprehensively handle risks faced, including risks associated with financial instruments, to ensure the sustained and stable realization of the financing policies of the function.
For each type of risk, management policies and procedures have been created to handle the specific types of credit risks, market risks, and liquidity risks for financing associated with each operation, and a structure has been established to smoothly handle these tasks in each operation. The risk management structure for each type of operation is described below.
a. Micro Business and Individual Operations
The risk management structure of these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations, JFC has a structure to manage the credit risk of loans through (i) individual credit management, (ii) asset self assessment, and (iii) quantification of credit risk in accordance with regulations concerning financing operations and claims management operations, and management regulations concerning credit risk. This credit risk management is conducted by the credit department and risk management department as well as each branch office, and business operations meetings are regularly held with the General Manager acting as chairman to conduct discussions and reporting.
The specific risk management method is described below.
(i) Individual credit management
The financial screening process associated with these operations to support appropriate financing decisions is based on consideration of the borrower’s financial condition in terms of eligibility for financing, validity of the use of funds, profitability and sustainability of the business, as well as the business’s qualitative aspects such as technical capabilities, selling power, and the future potential of the business.
Efforts are made to carefully manage claims after financing has been conducted through assessment of the future business outlook and repayment capacity.
(ii) Asset self assessment
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct self assessment. In this process, first stage assessments are conducted by the branch offices, second stage assessments by the credit department, and internal inspections by the auditing department. The results of this self assessment are used to properly estimate write-off and allowance, and are used internally for the constant assessment of the credit conditions of the operations. They are also actively used for the disclosure of the quality of assets to enhance the transparency of financial position for the operations.
(iii) Quantification of credit risk
A credit scoring model for borrowers based on analysis of transaction data collected over a number of years has been developed for these operations. Starting in Fiscal Year 2007, credit scores have been assigned to borrowers, and these scores have been used for screening procedures and to monitor credit portfolios since Fiscal Year 2008. The reliability of this scoring model is ensured through continual recalibration based on annual inspections of the model’s accuracy.
In addition, to assess the overall risk of the portfolio, efforts are made to quantify credit risk through methods that take into consideration the extremely diversified nature of the portfolios for these operations.
(b) Market risk management
These operations are subject to the interest rate risk caused by the cash flow gap between assets and liabilities, and the operations could incur losses caused by this risk. Efforts are made to assess interest rate risk in these operations through methods such as maturity ladder analysis and duration analysis, and appropriate risk management is carried out to reduce interest rate risk by diversifying the year of issue for bonds.
These operations do not use quantitative analysis of interest rate risk for risk management purposes.
The primary financial instruments that are subject to interest rate risk in these operations include loans and bills discounted, borrowed money and bonds payable.
When all other risk variables are fixed, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) decline in the current interest rate as of March 31, 2011 will cause the fair value after netting of the financial assets and financial liabilities held in this account to increase by ¥55,453 million ($667 million). Conversely, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) rise in the interest rate will cause the fair value to decrease by ¥27,249 million ($328 million). This impact presumes that risk variables excluding interest rate are fixed, and does not consider the correlation between interest rate and other risk variables. In addition, there is a possibility that these calculated amount may underestimate the impact when interest rate changes beyond the range of reasonably expected fluctuations.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
To conduct proper risk management in these operations, long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Cash flows are assessed and overdraft facility accounts are established with multiple private sector financial institutions to maintain daily cash flows.
b. Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations, credit risk is properly managed through (i) individual credit management, (ii) credit rating, (iii) asset self assessment, and (iv) quantification of credit risk.
(i) Individual credit management
The screening process for these operations includes screening of the probability of repayment based on eligibility for financing, validity of the financing conditions, and the future potential of the business. Particularly, screening for the certainty of repayment is conducted with a screening standard that gives sufficient consideration to the specific industry (agriculture, forestry, and fisheries) risks. This consists of close examination of the creditworthiness of the borrower, investment risk, investment effect, and comprehensive verification and confirmation of repayment ability that takes into account feasibility of the payment and repayment plan, and suitability of financing conditions.
Efforts are also made to continuously assess the customer’s economic condition, and maintain and improve the soundness of loan assets through active and detailed support activities.
(ii) Credit rating
These operations strive to maintain and improve the quality of loan assets by using ratings for early discovery of customers with business conditions that could be cause for concern in order to enact business support. Ratings are assigned based on a model built using internal data. The reliability of this scoring model is ensured through continual recalibration based on annual inspection of the accuracy of the model’s evaluation.
The credit ratings are also used for individual credit management, asset self assessment, and quantification of credit risk as the basis for credit risk management. For this reason reassessment of the credit ratings system is conducted as required.
(iii) Asset self assessment
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct self assessment.
In this process, first stage assessments are conducted by the branch offices, second stage assessments by the credit department, and internal inspections by the auditing department.
The results of this self assessment are used to appropriately estimate write-offs and allowances, and are used internally for the constant assessment of the credit conditions of the operations. They are also actively used for the disclosure of the quality of assets to enhance the transparency of the financial position of the operations.
(iv) Quantification of credit risk
To assess the overall risk of the portfolio, credit risks are quantified for internal management in these operations.
(b) Market risk management
The main type of market risk associated with this account is interest rate risk. It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the duration of assets and liabilities. However, due to characteristics such as long redemption periods and fixed interest rates that are required by agriculture, forestry, fisheries policy, duration gaps arise. Efforts are made to assess interest rate risk in these operations through methods such as maturity ladder analysis and duration analysis, and to conduct proper risk management by attempting to reduce interest rate risk through the provision of long-term financing.
These operations do not use quantitative analysis of interest rate risk for risk management purposes.
The primary financial instruments that are subject to interest rate risk in these operations include loans and bills discounted, borrowed money, bonds payable, and entrusted funds.
When all other risk variables are fixed, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) decline in the current interest rate as of March 31, 2011 will cause the fair value after netting of the financial assets and financial liabilities held in this account to increase by ¥7,829 million ($94 million). Conversely, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) rise in the interest rate will cause the fair value to decrease by ¥7,902 million ($95 million). This impact presumes that risk variables excluding interest rate are fixed, and does not consider the correlation between interest rate and other risk variables. In addition, there is a possibility that these calculated amount may underestimate the impact when interest rate changes beyond the range of reasonably expected fluctuations.
(c) Liquidity risk management related with fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal investment and loans and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted.
Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions have been taken to maintain daily cash flows for proper risk management.
c. SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
(i) Individual credit management
For financing operations, the financing decision is conducted upon assessment of the situation of company applying for funds from a fair and neutral position and verification of the certainty of repayment and validity of use of funds.
Since these financing operations specialize in long-term funding for businesses, in the screening process, verification assessment is made of the likelihood of long-term repayment focusing on business profits as well as on overall judgment being made on the certainty of repayment.
An overall judgment of the company’s enterprise power is made, not limited to a quantitative analysis focusing on the financial statements, but taking into consideration various management activities including the combination of people, money, and other factors that makes up the company and the future prospects of the company that has applied for funds.
We strive to continuously assess the situation after financing has been granted through review of financial reports and regular company visits. Based on the classification of the borrower or otherwise as required, and after consideration of the results of management improvement plans, follow ups will be conducted as required to determine the subsequent approach to the transaction.
In addition, in order to support the growth and development of the borrower, we will strive to give as much feedback as possible on the screening results and provide consultation support to help resolve management issues. In particular, we will support companies struggling to respond to changes in the business environment by formulating business improvement plans through methods such as preparing and submitting management improvement proposals.
(ii) Credit rating
A credit scoring model based on analysis of transaction data collected over the years for borrowers has been developed for these operations and has been used in the screening process. In Fiscal Year 2002 this tool was developed for credit rating, and a credit rating system based on a new scoring model was introduced in Fiscal Year 2007 to improve default determination accuracy. In this manner, credit risk is being adequately evaluated.
(iii) Asset self assessment
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct self assessment. Classification of borrowers is being conducted based on the new credit rating system introduced in Fiscal Year 2007.
First stage assessments of borrower classification and asset type are conducted by the front offices and second stage assessments by a separate credit department. An auditing department independent from the other sections then conducts an internal inspection to verify the accuracy of assessments.
(iv) Quantification of credit risk
In addition to the individual credit management described above, from 2005 we started monitoring and quantifying credit risks to assess the overall risk of the credit portfolio to further improve the efficiency of financing operations and the quantification and management of credit risk.
(v) Credit risk management for securitization support operations
In the securitization support operations since July, 2004, we have used scoring models such as our proprietary creditworthiness measurement tool which was developed based on the analysis of transaction data collected over the years for SMEs, and a Credit Risk Database (CRD) to conduct screening. In addition, statistical methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are used to accurately assess the overall credit risk for pools of claims to establish a proper guarantee rate based on credit risk.
After guarantees have been conducted, accurate assessment of credit risk is conducted through confirmation of the repayment status, submission of financial reports, and regular reassessment of the pool of claims.
(b) Market risk management
(i) Interest rate risk
The main type of market risk associated with these operations is interest rate risk. It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities. However, not all cash flows can be matched, so some gaps do arise between assets and liabilities. Efforts are made to assess interest rate risk in these operations through methods such as maturity ladder analysis and duration analysis, and conduct proper risk management by attempting to reduce interest rate risk by diversifying the year of issue for bonds.
(ii) Exchange rate risk
It is JFC policy to fully hedge through use of currency swaps, the exchange rate risk of issues of foreign-currency denominated debt securities. The counterparty risk associated with swaps is managed through regular assessment of the fair value and risk exposure of the swap transaction for counterparties, and the creditworthiness of counterparties.

(iii) Quantitative information relating to market risk
These operations do not use quantitative analysis of interest rate risk for risk management purposes.
The primary financial instruments that are subject to interest rate risk, which is one of the main risk variables, are loans and bills discounted, borrowed money, and bonds payable.
When all other risk variables are fixed, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) decline in the current interest rate as of March 31, 2011 will cause the fair value after netting of the financial assets and financial liabilities held in this account to increase by ¥21,612 million ($260 million). Conversely, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) rise in the interest rate will cause the fair value to decrease by ¥19,865 million ($239 million). This impact presumes that risk variables excluding interest rate are fixed, and does not consider the correlation between interest rate and other risk variables. In addition, there is a possibility that these calculated amount may underestimate the impact when interest rate changes beyond the range of reasonably expected fluctuations.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted.
Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions, have been taken to maintain daily cash flows for proper risk management.
d. Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
In the securitization support operations, we use scoring models such as our proprietary creditworthiness measurement tool developed based on analysis of transaction data collected over a number of years for SMEs, and a CRD (Credit Risk Database) to conduct screening. In addition, statistical methods such as Monte Carlo simulations are used to accurately assess the overall credit risk for pools of claims to establish a proper return based on credit risk.
(b) Market risk management
The main type of market risk associated with these operations is interest rate risk.
It is JFC policy to minimize interest rate risk by matching the cash flows between assets and liabilities, and we consider that interest rate risk is limited.
These operations do not use quantitative analysis of interest rate risk for risk management purposes.
The primary financial instrument that is subject to interest rate risk in these operations is securities.
When all other risk variables are fixed, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) decline in the current interest rate as of March 31, 2011 will cause the market value after netting of the financial assets and financial liabilities held in this account to increase by ¥689 million ($8 million). Conversely, it is considered that a 50 basis point (0.5%) rise in the interest rate will cause this value to decrease by ¥674 million ($8 million). This impact presumes that risk variables excluding interest rate are fixed, and does not consider the correlation between interest rate and other risk variables. In addition, there is a possibility that these calculated amount may underestimate the impact when interest rate changes beyond the range of reasonably expected fluctuations.
(c) Liquidity risk management related with fund procurement
It is considered that liquidity risk is limited because a system has been adopted to minimize liquidity risk and sufficient funding support can be expected from the government.
e. Credit Insurance Programs
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Market risk management
The main type of market risk associated with these operations is interest rate risk.
These operations strive to undertake appropriate risk management practices by managing funds procured from government investments through using highly stable instruments such as Japanese government bonds.
The main financial instruments exposed to interest rate risk in these operations are due from banks and securities. These financial instruments do not have material sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations because they are funds raised from government investments primarily managed using short-term maturities.
(b) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Financing is provided from government funds. Efforts are made for proper risk management through the assessment of cash flows.
f. JBIC Operations
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
The basis of credit risk management is centered on individual credit management based on the creditworthiness of the borrower during the credit approval process.
When a new credit application is processed, the relevant finance departments (sales promotion department) and credit departments collect and analyze information on the borrower. The overseas representative offices also play a part in collecting information on foreign governments and corporations. Credit appraisal takes place based on the information that has been gathered and analyzed, with the different departments ensuring appropriate check throughout the process, leading to the final decision by the management.
For lending to foreign governments and corporations, JFC makes most use of its position as a public institution and exchanges views and information with governments and other authorities in recipient countries, international institutions such as the IMF and the World Bank, other regional development banks and official export credit agencies as well as private financial institutions in the industrial countries. Using all these channels, JFC evaluates sovereign or country risk (risk in addition to corporate risk and project risk associated with the country in which the corporation is located) based on a broad range of information on government and government agency borrowers as well as political and economic conditions in their countries.
The relevant finance departments and credit departments conduct proper credit risk management based on the credit risk rating system for segmented risk categories and the asset self assessment system based on the Financial Inspection Manual. In addition, an Integrated Risk Management Committee is held regularly to report the status of credit management to the management. The credit management situation is also checked by an independent auditing department.
In addition, a claims protection mechanism exists based on an international framework unique to official creditors, that is not contained in private sector financial institutions, for official claims on foreign governments. This mechanism consists of international financial assistance upon international approval by the Paris Club, an international group focusing on debt, to allow the debtor country to continue debt repayment when the debtor country becomes temporarily unable to service its debt due to economic conditions. As part of this international financial assistance, the debtor country conducts an economic reform program upon agreement with the IMF in order to secure the ability to sustainably service its debt. In view of JFC’s position as a public financial institution, it will use the framework of the Paris Club to preserve its official claims on foreign governments.
Besides the individual credit management outlined above, credit risks are quantified to assess the overall risk of the portfolio in these operations. To quantify credit risks, it is important to take into account the characteristic of the loan portfolio, namely, that there are a significant proportion of long-term loans and loans involving sovereign risk or country risk. Also to be taken into account is the mechanism of securing assets, such as the framework of international financial assistance to debtor countries through the Paris Club, which is unique to official creditors. This account uses a unique model to quantify the credit risk taking account of the above explained elements and measures amount of credit risk, which are utilized for credit risk management.
(b) Market risk management
ALM is used to manage exchange rate risk and interest rate risk for these operations. Market risk management protocols contain detailed stipulations of risk management methods and procedures, which are used by the ALM Committee to assess and confirm the execution of ALM, and for discussions concerning future responses. In addition, monitoring is conducted through gap analysis and interest rate sensitivity analysis as well as Value at Risk (“VaR”) to comprehensively assess the interest and terms of financial assets and liabilities. The results are regularly reported to the ALM Committee.
The basic policy for managing exchange rate risk and interest rate risk in these operations is described below.
(i) Exchange rate risk
Foreign currency-denominated loans conducted in these operations involve risks related to exchange rate fluctuations. We have a consistent policy of managing this risk by fully hedging this risk exposure through the use of currency swaps and forward foreign exchange transactions.
(ii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from exposure to market interest rate fluctuations for yen-denominated loan and foreign currency-denominated loan operations and the policy for managing interest rate risk is described below.
Yen-denominated loan operations
For the most part, funding for yen-denominated loans is managed at fixed-rate interest. Currently, interest rate risk for yen-denominated loans is limited since the maturity of loans and the related funding arrangements are generally matched. In addition, swaps are used to hedge interest rate risk for portions of loans that are thought to have high exposures to interest rate fluctuation risk.
‚ Foreign currency-denominated loan operations
For foreign currency-denominated loan operations, interest rate risk is hedged through the application of a consistent policy of using interest rate swaps and managing funds with floating interest rates for both loans and related funding arrangements.
(iii) Status of market risk
These operations only maintain a banking account and do not have financial instruments in a trading account. While these operations are managed by hedging operation in principle, as already stated previously, market risk is measured in order to assess fair value and potential risks. The following represents an overview of VaR in the current fiscal year.
(a) VaR (Fiscal year ended March 31, 2011)
(1) Interest rate VaR: 69.7 billion of yen ($1 billion)
(2) Exchange rate VaR: 45.9 billion of yen ($1 billion)
(b) VaR measurement model
(1) Interest rate VaR: Historical model
(2) Exchange rate VaR: Variance-covariance model
Quantitative standards: Confidence Interval: 99%; ‚ Holding period: 1 year; ƒ Observation period: 5 years
(c) Risk management using VaR
VaR is a market risk measure that assesses the maximum possible profits or losses that could be incurred based on historical market movements of interest rates or exchange rates, etc over a specific period in the past (or observation period) within a certain period of time (or holding period) under a certain probability (or confidence interval), that is derived statistically by employing the theory of possibility distribution.
This measurement assumes actual market trends and the theory of probability distribution. Based on the possibility that future market trends could deviate from these assumptions, a back-test is performed to cross-check the model-measured interest rate VaR with actual profits or losses, in order to confirm the effectiveness of market risk measurements using VaR. In addition, a stress test, which goes beyond the probability distribution of historical market movements is conducted in order to capture risks from multifaceted perspectives.
The following points should generally be noted for VaR model measurement.
| • | | VaR will differ depending on the confidence interval, holding period or observation period. |
| • | | VaR indicates the maximum amount of unrealized profits or losses at the time of measurement. However, calculated VaR may not always be realized in the future with the certain probability because the assumptions, such as market movements, could vary during holding period. |
| • | | VaR indicates the maximum value based on specific assumption. As such, it is imperative to keep in mind that VaR may underestimate the potential losses when utilizing VaR as a risk management measure. |
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds such as fiscal loan funds, government-backed bonds, and FILP agency bonds are used to finance these operations and deposits are not accepted.
Cash flows are assessed and proper measures including establishing overdraft facility accounts with multiple private sector financial institutions are taken to maintain daily cash flows for proper risk management.
(d) Derivatives transactions
A protocol of internal checks with separate divisions executing transactions, assessing the effectiveness of hedges, and conducting office management has been established for derivatives transactions, and these transactions are conducted according to derivatives-related regulations.
g. Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Market risk management
The main type of market risk associated with these operations is interest rate risk.
The operations strive to undertake appropriate risk management by managing funds raised through grants from the government using through current deposits.
In addition, there is no material sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations for this financial instrument since funds are managed using current deposits.
(b) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
These operations are financed using government grants only. In addition, JFC strives to undertake appropriate risk management by ascertaining the status of the cash position of these operations.
h. Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct asset self assessment. In the asset self assessment, an inspection is conducted by the auditing department.
(b) Market risk management
The primary financial instruments that are subject to interest rate risk, which is one of the main risk variables in these operations include loans and borrowings.
These operations provide loans to designated financial institutions and are funded through borrowings from fiscal investment and loans. Since the terms and conditions of lendings and borrowings are equal, cash inflows resulting from lendings and cash outflows resulting from borrowings are matched. Therefore, as a whole operations, interest rate risk does not exist as a market risk.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term and stable funds, such as fiscal investment and loans are secured to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. In addition, the loan period and borrowing period are equal. Sufficient short-term liquidity is secured for compensation payment funds towards designated financial institutions, and liquidity risk is considered to be limited. In addition, continual efforts are being made to make financing plans more sophisticated and minimize liquidity risk.
i. Operations to Facilitate Specific Businesses Promotion
The risk management structure for these operations is described below.
(a) Credit risk management
For these operations standards have been established in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual prepared by the Financial Services Agency to conduct asset self assessment. In the asset self assessment, an inspection is conducted by the auditing department.
(b) Market risk management
The primary financial instruments that are subject to interest rate risk, which is one of the main risk variables in these operations include loans and bills discounted and borrowed money.
These operations provide loans to designated financial institutions and are funded through borrowings from fiscal investment and loans. Since the terms and conditions of lendings and borrowings are equal, cash inflows resulting from lendings and cash outflows resulting from borrowings are matched. Therefore, as a whole operations, interest rate risk does not exist as a market risk.
(c) Liquidity risk management related to fund procurement
Long-term stable funds, such as fiscal investment and loans are used to finance this account and deposits are not accepted. Liquidity risk is believed to be limited because the loan period and borrowing period are equal.
(4) Supplementary explanation concerning fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of financial instruments includes amounts based on market value and amounts that have been reasonably estimated when no market value is available. Set valuation inputs are used for the calculation of this amount, and if different valuation inputs are used the resulting amount could vary.
2. Fair value of financial instruments
The amount in the balance sheet at March 31, 2011, and the related fair value, and difference is as follows. Note that unlisted securities whose fair value is extremely difficult to be determined are not included in the following chart (refer to Note 3).

- 33 -
Assets
(1) Cash and due from banks
For Due from banks that do not mature or have a maturity under 3 months, the carrying amount is used as fair value because fair value resembles the carrying amount approximates to the fair value. For due from banks that have a maturity over 3 months, fair value is based on the present value calculated by discounting future cash flow by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the appropriate deposit term.
(2) Securities
Market value is used for securities. However for corporate bonds in the Account for SME Loan Programs and the Account for Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation), the Account for Credit Insurance Programs, and the Account for Operations to Facilitate Crisis Response, the carrying amount is used as fair value because fair value approximates the carrying amount. The fair value of “Available-for-sale securities” is based on the price that is indicated from other financial institution.
Notes for securities by purpose of holding are found in Note 17 “Market Value of Securities”.
(3) Loans and bills discounted
Loans, including loans with variable interest rates and loans with fixed interest rates, are calculated as follows.
a. Account for Micro Business and Individual Operations
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest by the interest rate assumed to be used if a new loan were conducted based on the type and period of loan. However, the fair value mentioned above does not include allowance for loan losses which was additionally provided for the borrowers whose condition is not reflected on self-assessment as of the base date. (Please see “Significant accounting policies (f)”).
For claims that are not performed or could default, allowance for loan losses is provided based on the expected collectable amount from the collateral or guarantee. Fair value approximates the amount on the balance sheet on the closing date net of the allowance for loan losses, and, therefore, this amount is used for fair value.
b. Account for Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Food Business Operations
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the risk-reflected principal and interest that incorporates risk by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the type of borrower and period of loan.
c. Account for SME Loan Programs and Securitization Support Programs (Guarantee-type Operation)
All loans, with the exception of subordinated capital loans, have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated for all loans other than Bankrupt loans and Substantially bankrupt loans by discounting the risk-adjusted principal and interest by type of borrower using the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate). However, the fair value mentioned above does not include allowance for loan losses which was additionally provided for the borrowers whose condition could not be determined through self-assessment as of the base date. (See “Significant accounting policies (f)”).
For obligations on bankrupt borrowers or substantially bankrupt borrowers, allowance for loan losses is provided based on the expected collectable amount from the collateral or guarantee. Fair value resembles the amount on the balance sheet on the closing date net of the allowance for loan losses, and therefore, this amount is used for fair value.
d. Account for Securitization Support Programs (Purchase-type Operation)
Not applicable
e. Account for Credit Insurance Programs
Not applicable
f. Account for JBIC Operations
For loans with variable interest rates an amount calculated by the floating rate note method to reflect market interest rates over the short term is used for fair value.
For loans with fixed interest, the total principal and interest is discounted by a risk free rate that incorporates the default ratio and coverage ratio to calculate fair value. However for obligations on bankrupt borrowers, substantially bankrupt borrowers, and potentially bankrupt borrowers a provision for bad debt is calculated based on the expected collectable amount from the collateral or guarantee. Fair value approximates the amount on the balance sheet on the closing date after a deduction has been made for the provision for bad debt, so this amount is used for fair value.
g. Financial Account Related to the Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan
Not applicable
h. Account for Operations to Facilitate Crisis Responses
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest by the interest rate estimated from the market yield of bonds issued by the borrower based on the type of borrower and period of loan.
i. Account for Operations to Facilitate Specific Businesses Promotion
All loans have a fixed interest rate and fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest by type of borrower and period of loan using the interest rate estimated from the market yield of bonds issued by the borrower.
Liabilities
(1) Borrowings
Borrowings with variable interest rates indicate that short-term market interest rates and the credit conditions of JFC are not significantly altered by borrowings. Therefore, the carrying amount is used as fair value because it is considered that the carrying amount approximates the fair value. For borrowings with a fixed interest rate, in principle, fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest of the borrowings by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate) based on the set period of loan.
(2) Bonds payable
Market value is used for fair value of bonds. However, bonds that are subject to hedging with forward contracts are treated as yen-denominated bonds with fixed interest, and the fair value is calculated by discounting the principal and interest of the borrowings by the risk free rate (the standard Japanese government bond rate).
Derivative transactions
| Derivative transactions are discussed under Note 18 “Derivative transactions”. |
(Note 2) | For credit insurance underwriting, the credit decision is conducted by a specified financial institution, and JFC does not participate in the credit decision for the individual subject to compensation at the time of loan, and therefore JFC does not retain the financial data of the individuals subject to compensation. Accordingly, it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined. |
| The amount of compensation underwritten for compensation security contract is as follows. |
| Balance of compensation underwritten: ¥1,869,023 million ($22,478 million). |
| Compensation loss reserve: ¥59,757 million ($719 million). |
(Note 3) | Financial instruments that are recognized to be extremely difficult to be determined fair value are as follows. |
They are not included in “Assets, (2) Securities” “Assets, (3) Loans and Bill Discounted” or “Liabilities, (1) Borrowings”

| | | | | | | | |
(*1) | Since unlisted stocks do not have quoted market prices available and fair value is extremely difficult to be determined, fair values are not stated. |
(*2) | Corporate bonds (specified asset-backed securities) and other securities (trust beneficiary securities) do not have a market value. |
These are securities issues backed by loan claims on SMEs originating from multiple financial institutions. The following steps are followed when constructing the subordination structure for the securities:
(1) First, groups of loan claims from the financial institutions are put into sub-pools, and the most subordinated section is removed;
(2) The remainder of the sub-pool besides the most subordinated section is treated as an amalgamate and divided into levels of senior and subordinate.
For this reason, to evaluate the fair value of corporate bonds (specified asset-backed securities) and other securities (trust beneficiary securities) owned by JFC that have been amalgamated , the individual financial data for the borrowers that back the securities issue is required. Because JFC is not structured to continuously acquire this data, fair value is extremely difficult to be determined and is not stated.
(*3) | For partnership investments composed of unlisted stocks that do not have quoted market prices available and for which fair value is extremely difficult to be determined, fair values are not stated. |
(*4) | For loans on deed (subordinated capital loans) under the Provision Scheme for Challenge Support and Capital Enhancement, fair values are not stated because it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined. This is because future cash flows cannot reasonably be estimated due to its particular scheme that applicable interest rates are annually determined by business performance of the debtor, instead of being determined at the time of loan executions. |
(*5) | For borrowings from general account of the national budget, fair values are not stated because it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined because no redemption period is stipulated and it is not possible to reasonably estimate future cash flows. |
(*6) | For borrowings from the FILP special account (investment account) of the national budget, fair values are not stated because it is recognized that fair value is extremely difficult to be determined for the following reason: an interest rate is not set at the time of borrowing, as this type of borrowing consists of a scheme in which a lump interest payment is made after the final installment payment redemption and it is not possible to reasonably estimate future cash flows. |

The Japan Bank for International Cooperation Act (hereafter, the “New JBIC Act”) was passed on April 28, 2011 at the 177th ordinary session of the Diet. Based on this Act, on April 1, 2012, JBIC will be separated from JFC to form Japan Bank for International Cooperation Co., Ltd. (hereafter “New JBIC”), and effective on the same date, JFC’s JBIC Operations and Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan will be transferred to the New JBIC.
JFC will underwrite the stock for the New JBIC, and will transfer this stock without compensation to the Japanese government at the time the New JBIC is established on April 1, 2012. Effective the same day, assets and liabilities relating to JFC’s JBIC operations and Financial Operations for Facilitating Realignment of United States Forces in Japan will be assumed by the New JBIC. The amount of assets and liabilities to be assumed will be the assessed amount as determined by an evaluation committee based on the New JBIC Act.
