Capitalisation Overview
• *Excluding D-SIB charge. The Group has been designated as a domestically systemic importantbank (“D-SIB”) with an additional Common Equity Tier 1 D-SIB surcharge of 0.5 per cent. requiredfrom 31 December 2016. As a result, the Group’s total minimum capital requirement from thatdate is 13.5 per cent., which includes a capital conservation buffer.
• The principal factor behind the Group’s falling capital ratios in 2015 was the significant increasein its risk weighted exposures, reflecting the increase in its portfolio of loans and advances in2015 and to a lesser extent a decrease in the available capital as a result of the Acquisition. 2018Capital ratio increase is driven by issuance of Additional Tier 1 capital securities of KD 91m
