Get a plain-English read of Non-financial corporations
Turn the raw legal text into a practical explanation grounded in Financial Sector (Collection of Data) (reporting standard) determination No. 26 of 2019.
Personal: individuals, or groups of individuals whose dealings with other sectors are for personal (i.e. non-business) purposes.
Commercial: transactions conducted with Private trading companies, Public trading enterprises, Private unincorporated businesses, and Community service organisations, for use in connection with businesses carried on by them.
‘Parent entity’, ‘controlled entity’ (subsidiary), ‘associated entity’: these terms are defined in accordance with AASB 127, AASB 3 and AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (AASB 128).
‘Related parties’: related parties of the reporting entity include the parent entity, controlled entities, associated entities, joint venture entities and other branches under the same parent entity.
Reporting entity
This is to be completed by all authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs) on a consolidated group basis (where applicable).
The basis of consolidation required in this form is in accordance with the accounting consolidated group. The accounting consolidated group is to be determined in accordance with the requirements of the Australian accounting standards, notably AASB 127 Separate Financial Statements (AASB 127) and AASB 3 Business Combinations (AASB 3).
ADIs that do not have any controlled entities are not required to submit forms for this reporting entity.
Branches of foreign banks are not required to complete this form.
Consolidated ADI group
This refers to the global operations of the ADI and all its controlled entities (where relevant), consolidated in accordance with Australian accounting standards (AASB 127 and AASB 3).
The terms ‘controlled entity’ and ‘parent entity’ are defined in accordance with AASB 127 and AASB 3.
Exclude from the accounting consolidated group special purpose vehicles (SPVs) whose assets have satisfied the clean sale requirements set out in Prudential Standard APS 120 Securitisation (APS 120) (refer to Securitisation Deconsolidation Principle below).
Securitisation deconsolidation principle
Where an ADI (or a member of its Level 2 consolidated group) participates in a securitisation that meets APRA’s operational requirements for regulatory capital relief under Prudential Standard APS 120 Securitisation (APS 120):
(a) special purpose vehicles (SPVs) holding securitised assets may be treated as non-consolidated independent third parties for regulatory reporting purposes, irrespective of whether the SPVs (or their assets) are consolidated for accounting purposes; and
(b) the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the relevant SPVs may be excluded from the ADI’s reported amounts in APRA’s regulatory reporting returns.
Where an ADI (or a member of its Level 2 consolidated group) participates in a securitisation that does not meet APRA’s operational requirements for regulatory capital relief under APS 120, or the ADI undertakes a funding-only securitisation or synthetic securitisation, such assets are to be reported as on-balance sheet in APRA’s regulatory reporting returns.
Reporting period and timeframe for lodgement
The form is to be completed as at the last day of each quarter based on the financial year (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001) of the ADI. ADIs must submit the completed form to APRA within 28 calendar days after the end of the relevant reporting quarter or by the date specified in a notice of extension granted by APRA.
Unit of measurement
ADIs are asked to complete the form in whole Australian dollars (no decimal place).
Amounts denominated in foreign currency are to be converted to AUD in accordance with AASB 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates (AASB 121).
The general requirements of AASB 121 for translation are:
foreign currency monetary items outstanding at the reporting date must be translated at the spot rate at the reporting date;[1]
foreign currency non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency must be translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction;[2]
foreign currency non-monetary items that are measured at fair value will be translated at the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined.
Transactions arising under foreign currency derivative contracts at the reporting date must be prepared in accordance with AASB 9 Financial Instruments (AASB 9), AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures (AASB 7) and AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation. However, those foreign currency derivatives that are not within the scope of AASB 9 (e.g. some foreign currency derivatives that are embedded in other contracts) remain within the scope of AASB 121.
For APRA purposes, equity items must be translated using the foreign currency exchange rate at the date of investment or acquisition. Post-acquisition changes in equity are required to be translated on the date of the movement.
As foreign currency derivatives are measured at fair value, the currency derivative contracts are translated at the spot rate at the reporting date.
Exchange differences should be recognised in profit and loss in the period which they arise. For foreign currency derivatives, the exchange differences would be recognised immediately in profit and loss if the hedging instrument is a fair value hedge. For derivatives used in a cash flow hedge, the exchange differences should be recognised directly in equity.
The ineffective portion of the exchange differences in all hedges would be recognised in profit and loss; and
in relation to financial reports of foreign operations:
A foreign operation is defined in AASB 121 to mean an entity that is a subsidiary, associate, joint venture or branch of a reporting entity, the activities of which are based or conducted in a country or currency other than those of the reporting entity.
Exchange differences relating to foreign currency monetary items that form part of the net investment of an entity in a foreign operation, must be recognised as a separate component of equity.
Translation of financial reports should otherwise follow the requirements in AASB 121.
Netting
Unless otherwise specifically stated, institutions are allowed to take advantage of netting agreements in relation to disclosure of data items in this form. Institutions are to comply with the prerequisite for netting outlined in Australian accounting standards AASB 7 and AASB 132 and any relevant prudential standards.
Term to maturity
Any references to ‘term to maturity’ in Reporting Form ARF 322.0 Statement of Financial Position (Consolidated) (ARF 322.0) refer to residual term to maturity.
Basis of preparation
The nature of the disclosure and format of this form may not be strictly consistent with the annual financial statements prepared by the institution. Notwithstanding this, in completing this form (unless otherwise specifically stated for individual items of assets, liabilities or equity), institutions are requested to follow the basis that is used for the preparation of its annual financial statements in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards, specifically in regard to the:
interpretation/definition of specific asset, liability and equity items;
appropriate measurement basis for asset, liability and equity items; and
