Subject: Disclosure of Deposits (Public Disclosure Regulations)

Introduction

1. Changes have occurred over the years in the requirements for disclosure of deposits in the financial statements of financial institutions.
2. In order to align the Public Disclosure Regulations with accepted accounting standards in the US and Europe, a review was conducted of the financial statements of large banks in the US and Europe, and of the SEC's disclosure regulations and international standards.
3. After consulting with the Committee of the Israel Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Advisory Committee on Banking Matters, I have amended the Public Disclosure Regulations as detailed below.

Amendments to the Regulations

The Public Disclosure Regulations shall be amended as follows:

Explanatory Notes

4. The amendments to the Public Disclosure Regulations are intended to provide broader information on sources of activity and to adapt the disclosure requirements for deposits to the accepted requirements for financial statements of banking institutions in the US.

Main Changes in the Public Disclosure Regulations:

5.1. Additional definitions were added for the following terms: deposit, fixed-term deposit, institutional entity, interest-bearing deposit, and non-interest-bearing deposit.

5.2. Additional disclosure requirements were added within the Board of Directors' disclosure report:

5.2.1. An additional requirement to disclose segment activity was added. When relevant, the average balance of public loans and public deposits for each segment shall be disclosed.

5.2.2. An additional requirement to disclose quantitative information regarding the liquidity position was added, specifically the total balance of deposits of the three largest groups of depositors.

5.3. The Board of Directors' review shall be expanded to include disclosure of public deposits, separately disclosing interest-bearing fixed-term deposits and non-interest-bearing deposits.

5.4. Additional explanations regarding public deposits were added: deposits raised in Israel and deposits raised outside Israel shall be disclosed separately, subject to materiality.

5.5. Explanation regarding public deposits:

5.5.1. An additional requirement to disclose the balance of interest-bearing deposits and non-interest-bearing deposits separately was added.

5.5.2. The requirement to disclose deposits on savings and other deposit plans was cancelled. The disclosure of public deposits shall include fixed-term deposits and demand deposits according to the requirement.

5.5.3. An additional reporting requirement was added based on size tiers: 1-10, 10-100, 100-500, and over 500 million NIS.

5.5.4. An additional reporting requirement was added to distinguish between private individuals, institutional entities, other corporations, and others.

5.6. The requirement to disclose bank deposits separately from corporate deposits was cancelled.

5.7. Explanation 17 to "Assets and Liabilities by Basic Inflation Index and Maturity Periods":

5.7.1. An additional requirement to disclose the maturity dates of public loans and public deposits was added.

5.7.2. The lines referring to maturity dates of non-cash items were deleted.

5.8. The disclosure requirements for public deposits were also expanded to quarterly reports.

Thereafter, the provisions shall apply to the report as of March 31, 2013. A banking institution shall not provide comparative figures for any quarter of 2012 regarding disclosure of deposits of institutional entities, as stated above.

1. It is probable (Reasonably Possible) that the liability related to the off-balance sheet item will materialize (Section 47(b)(z) - see);
2. The liability related to the off-balance sheet item will result in the acquisition of claims that are not suitable for classification as better than impaired claims.

"Impaired Credit Risk" – "Impaired Credit Risk"

It is clarified for this purpose: If two of the following conditions are met, foreign currency credit risk shall be classified as impaired:

1. It is probable that the liability related to the off-balance sheet item will materialize (Section 47(b)(z) - see);

A forecasted transaction does not give the banking institution a present obligation for future concessions.

– "Deposit" - including any loan. – "Demand Deposit" - a non-fixed-term deposit. – "Fixed-term Deposit" - deposits in which the depositor has no right to withdraw, and for a period of 6 days, the depositor is not authorized to withdraw, and if early withdrawal is required, a penalty of at least 7 days' interest is imposed on the amount withdrawn. – "Call Deposits" - deposits whose repayment is conditional on the collection of credit from the depositor, and there is no risk to the institution.

– "Interest" - including differences in inflation indexation to the consumer price index, differences in interest rates, and differences in inflation indexation to the principal.

– "Fair Value" - the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

– "LIBOR Swap Rate" - the fixed interest rate in a contract for the exchange of interest rates in a single currency, with a constant notional amount, referencing the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). This is a constant-notional interest rate swap. The variable leg refers to LIBOR plus a spread without moving to LIBOR. This fixed interest rate is such that the fair value of the derivative is zero at the inception of the swap contract. The present value of the fixed cash flows is equal to the present value of the variable cash flows.
