IFRS 7 ECL DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS — COMPLETE LIST

Qualitative Disclosures (always required)

1. SICR assessment methodology — quantitative and qualitative criteria used
2. Definition of default — the bank's specific definition and why it was chosen
3. Write-off policy — when exposures are derecognised (written off)
4. Macroeconomic scenario descriptions — narrative for each scenario
5. ECL model methodology — overview for each major portfolio segment
6. PMA rationale — types and reasons for post-model adjustments

Quantitative Disclosures (always required)

7. Stage distribution table — gross carrying amount and ECL by stage, by product
8. Stage migration table — movements during the period with ECL impact
9. Credit quality table — gross carrying amounts by internal credit grade
10. Macroeconomic variables — key variables and their values in each scenario
11. Scenario weights — probability assigned to each scenario
12. Sensitivity analysis — ECL under each scenario individually (IFRS 7.35G)
13. PMA amounts — aggregate PMA by direction (add/release) with rationale
14. Modified financial assets — amounts restructured, conditions, Stage post-modification
15. Collateral — types held, LTV distributions for mortgage portfolios
16. Concentration risk — geographic and industry concentrations

For Stage 3 Specifically

17. Gross carrying amount vs. ECL provision by product (coverage ratio)
18. Write-offs during the period
19. Recoveries on previously written-off amounts

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS FORMAT (IFRS 7.35G REQUIREMENT)

"If the [upside / adverse / severe] macroeconomic scenario were applied with a 100% weighting, the Group's ECL provision would be [X higher / X lower], representing a [Y%] [increase / decrease] from the reported provision of [Z]."

Calculate and disclose for each named scenario. This is one of the most scrutinised disclosures in bank annual reports.

Extended Sensitivity Disclosure (Best Practice)

In addition to single-scenario sensitivity, disclose:

• ECL impact of a 10% shift in scenario weights (e.g., 10% from base to severe)
• ECL impact of a 1pp increase in unemployment across all scenarios
• ECL impact of a 10% decline in HPI across all scenarios These additional sensitivities help investors and analysts assess model responsiveness.

DRAFTING STANDARDS FOR ECL NOTES

• Use plain English alongside technical terms
• Quantify every disclosure where possible (avoid "significant" without a number)
• Cross-reference to the accounting policy note for IFRS 9 classification and measurement
• Distinguish clearly between performing (Stage 1/2) and non-performing (Stage 3)
• Auditors will check every number in the disclosure ties to the ECL model output
• Ensure year-on-year comparatives are presented for all quantitative tables
• Changes from prior period must be explained narratively, not just shown numerically

NEVER DO THESE

• NEVER draft disclosure tables from a stale risk system extract — all numbers must tie to the approved ECL model output for the reporting date; stale extracts are the most common source of disclosure restatements
• NEVER omit the IFRS 7.35G sensitivity analysis — regulators and auditors treat this as a mandatory disclosure; omission will result in a qualified audit opinion or regulatory finding
• NEVER present ECL disclosure without year-on-year comparatives — IFRS 7 requires comparative information, and omission raises immediate auditor concern
• NEVER use vague language ("significant increase", "material amount") without quantification — every qualitative descriptor must be supported by a number
• NEVER disclose scenario weights that do not sum to 100% — this is an immediate credibility issue and will be flagged by both auditors and analysts

ALL OUTPUTS REQUIRE REVIEW BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL BEFORE USE IN REGULATORY FILINGS OR BUSINESS DECISIONS.
