Consolidated Exposures – Immediate Risk Basis – International Claims by Country

In March 2003, banks and selected Registered Financial Corporations (RFCs) began reporting their international assets, liabilities and country exposures to APRA in ARF/RRF 231 International Exposures. This return is the basis of the data provided by Australia to the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) for its International Banking Statistics (IBS) data collection. APRA ceased the RFC data collection after September 2010.\r\n\r\nThe IBS data are based on the methodology described in the BIS Guide on International Financial Statistics (see http://www.bis.org/statistics/intfinstatsguide.pdf; Part II International banking statistics). Data reported for Australia, and other countries, on the BIS website are expressed in United States dollars (USD).\r\n\r\nData are recorded on an end-quarter basis.\r\n\r\nThere are two sets of IBS data: locational data, which are used to gauge the role of banks and financial centres in the intermediation of international capital flows; and consolidated data, which can be used to monitor the country risk exposure of national banking systems. Only consolidated data are reported in this statistical table.\r\n\r\nData are shown for a range of countries and regions. Similar data for a selected group of countries are also available in statistical table B13.1.\r\n\r\nCountry and regional groupings are based on the classification used in the IBS.\r\n\r\nData presented in this statistical table are immediate risk claims (expressed by the BIS as claims on an immediate borrower basis), which cover exposures on an immediate counterparty location basis. Ultimate risk claims are presented in complementary statistical tables B13.2 and B13.2.1, which cover immediate exposures adjusted (via guarantees and other risk transfers) to reflect the location of the ultimate counterparty/risk.\r\n\r\nInternational claims represent cross-border claims in all currencies and foreign offices’ local claims in non-local currencies (which would include, for example, USD claims on New Zealand residents by the New Zealand subsidiary of an Australian-owned bank).\r\n\r\nThis statistical table contains seven data worksheets. Six present data for countries within each specified region, while the 'Summary' worksheet shows total international claims of the globally consolidated operations of Australian-owned banks for each region, international organisations and unallocated. In each of these worksheets, the data in the last column measures total international claims for the region. Total international claims for each country add to total international claims for the region. However, in some quarters, this cannot be directly verified because data for individual countries and regions have blank entries in order to avoid disclosing confidential bank exposures.\r\n\r\nIn the 'Summary' worksheet, the positions by region and international organisation, and unallocated are summed to produce a ‘Total’ figure that represents reporting entities’ total international exposures.\r\n

2003年3月起，银行及指定注册金融公司（Registered Financial Corporations, RFCs）需通过ARF/RRF 231《国际敞口报表》向澳大利亚审慎监管局（Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, APRA）报送其国际资产、负债及国别敞口信息。该报表是澳大利亚向国际清算银行（Bank for International Settlements, BIS）报送国际银行统计（International Banking Statistics, IBS）数据的基础。APRA已于2010年9月停止收集RFC相关数据。

国际银行统计数据采用国际清算银行《国际金融统计指南》中载明的方法论编制（详见http://www.bis.org/statistics/intfinstatsguide.pdf；第二部分：国际银行统计）。澳大利亚及其他国家报送至BIS官网的数据均以美元（United States Dollars, USD）计价。

数据按季度末时点记录。

国际银行统计数据集包含两类：定位型数据，用于衡量银行及金融中心在国际资本流动中介中的作用；合并型数据，可用于监测一国银行体系的国别风险敞口。本统计表仅披露合并型数据。

本表涵盖多国及地区数据。特定国家分组的同类数据亦可在统计表B13.1中获取。

国别及地区分组遵循国际银行统计的分类标准。

本表披露的为即期风险债权（国际清算银行定义为以即期借款人口径统计的债权），对应以即期交易对手所在地为基准的敞口。终极风险债权披露于补充统计表B13.2及B13.2.1中，此类数据通过担保及其他风险转移方式调整，以反映终极交易对手/风险的所在地。

国际债权涵盖所有币种的跨境债权，以及海外分支机构以非本地币种持有的本地债权（例如，澳资银行新西兰子公司对新西兰居民持有的美元债权）。

本统计表包含7个数据工作表：其中6个工作表分别披露各指定区域内国家的数据，「汇总」工作表则展示各区域、国际组织及未分配项中澳资银行全球合并业务的总国际债权。各工作表的末列均标注对应区域的总国际债权，各国的总国际债权汇总后即为区域总国际债权。但在部分季度中，该汇总关系无法直接验证，因部分国家及地区存在数据空白项，以避免泄露银行保密敞口信息。

在「汇总」工作表中，按区域、国际组织及未分配项分列的项目将被加总，得到「总计」数值，代表报送机构的总国际敞口。
