Cross-border exposure The country risk exposures in the tables below are prepared in accordance withthe HKMA Return of External Positions Part II: Cross-Border Claims (MA(BS)9)guidelines. Cross-border claims are on-balance sheet exposures to counterparties based onthe location of the counterparties after taking into account the transfer ofrisk. The tables show claims on individual countries and territories or areas, afterrisk transfer, amounting to 10 per cent or more of the aggregate cross-borderclaims. Cross-border risk is controlled centrally through a well-developed system ofcountry limits and is frequently reviewed to avoid concentration of transfer,economic or political risk.

The credit equivalent amounts are calculated for the purposes ofderiving the risk-weighted amounts. These are assessed in accordance with theThird Schedule of the Hong Kong Banking Ordinance on capital adequacy and dependon the status of the counterparty and maturity characteristics. The risk-weightsused range from 0 per cent to 100 per cent. Contingent liabilities and commitments are credit-related instruments. Thecontract amounts represent the amounts at risk should the contracts be fullydrawn upon and the customers default. Since a significant portion of guaranteesand commitments is expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total of thecontract amounts is not representative of future liquidity requirements. Derivatives arise from futures, forward, swap and option transactions undertakenby the group in the foreign exchange, interest rate, equity, credit andcommodity markets. The contract amounts of these instruments indicate the volumeof transactions outstanding at the balance sheet date; they do not representamounts at risk. Fair value of derivative assets Figures in HK$m At 31Dec06 At 31Dec05 Exchange rate contracts 42,862 31,074Interest rate contracts 46,809 38,319Other derivative contracts 9,496 2,646 99,167 72,039Less: netting adjustments (40,339) (32,038) 58,828 40,001 The fair value of derivative assets represents the mark-to-market amounts of allderivative contracts with a positive value. These assets arise from contractswith third parties and fellow subsidiaries and are included in the balance sheetas 'Derivatives'. Fair value is a close approximation of the credit risk for these contracts atthe balance sheet date. The actual credit risk is measured internally as the sumof positive mark-to-market values and an estimate for the future fluctuationrisk, using a future risk factor. The netting adjustments represent amounts where the group has in place legallyenforceable rights of offset with individual counterparties to offset the grossamount of positive mark-to-market assets with any negative mark-to-marketliabilities with the same customer. These offsets are recognised by the HKMA inthe calculation of risk assets for the capital adequacy ratio. 25. Foreign exchange exposure Foreign exchange exposures may be divided broadly into two categories:structural and non-structural. Structural exposures are normally long-term innature and include those arising from investments in overseas subsidiaries,branches, associates and strategic investments as well as capital instrumentsdenominated in currencies other than Hong Kong dollars. Non-structural exposuresarise primarily from trading positions and balance sheet management activities.Non-structural exposures can arise and change rapidly. Foreign currencyexposures are managed in accordance with the group's risk management policiesand procedures. The group had the following structural foreign currency exposures which exceeded10 per cent of the total net structural exposure in all foreign currencies: Figures in HK$m Net structural position At 31Dec06 Chinese renminbi 54,960United States dollars 15,886 At 31Dec05 Chinese renminbi 32,510Indian rupees 7,979United States dollars 11,780 The increase in the Chinese renminbi structural position during 2006 was largelyattributable to the rise in the market value of the group's shareholding in PingAn Insurance. The Indian rupee exposure fell to below 10 per cent of the group'stotal foreign currency structural exposure following the disposal of shares inUTI Bank. The group had the following non-structural foreign currency positions whichexceeded 10 per cent of the group's net non-structural positions in all foreigncurrencies: United States Singapore BruneiFigures in HK$m dollars dollars dollars At 31Dec06 Spot assets 1,205,314 118,964 27,665Spot liabilities (1,222,334) (140,566) (107)Forward purchases 2,222,005 168,534 24,949Forward sales (2,210,290) (141,505) (57,857)Net options position (132) - - (5,437) 5,427 (5,350) At 31Dec05 Spot assets 1,229,340 107,578 5,523Spot liabilities (1,188,737) (90,549) (18,062)Forward purchases 1,507,086 157,007 43Forward sales (1,558,902) (161,647) -Net options position 3,361 - - (7,852) 12,389 (12,496) 26.

The group's capital adequacy ratios adjusted for market risks calculated inaccordance with the HKMA Guideline on 'Maintenance of Adequate Capital AgainstMarket Risks' are as follows: At 31Dec06 At 31Dec05 Total capital 13.5% 12.4% Tier 1 capital 12.3% 11.7% The group's capital adequacy ratios calculated in accordance with the provisionsof the Third Schedule of the Banking Ordinance, which does not take into accountmarket risks, are as follows: Total capital 13.0% 12.0% Tier 1 capital 11.8% 11.2% With effect from 1 January 2007, the group has adopted the 'standardisedapproach' of capital calculation under the HKMA 'Banking (Capital) Rules'. The increase in the group's total capital ratio at 31 December 2006 reflectsadditional capital raised in anticipation of different capital requirementsunder the new rules. 28. Liquidity ratio The Hong Kong Banking Ordinance requires banks operating in Hong Kong tomaintain a minimum liquidity ratio of 25 per cent, calculated in accordance withthe provisions of the Fourth Schedule of the Banking Ordinance. This requirementapplies separately to the Hong Kong branches of the bank and to those subsidiarycompanies which are Authorised Institutions under the Banking Ordinance in HongKong. 2006 2005 The average liquidity ratio for the year was as follows: Hong Kong branches of the bank 49.3% 48.2% 29. Property revaluation The group's premises and investment properties were revalued as at 30 September2006 and updated for any material changes as at 31 December 2006. The basis ofvaluation was open market value or depreciated replacement cost. Premises and investment properties in the Hong Kong SAR, the Macau SAR andmainland China, which represent 95 per cent by value of the group's propertiessubject to valuation, were valued by DTZ Debenham Tie Leung Limited. Thevaluations were carried out by qualified valuers who are members of the HongKong Institute of Surveyors. Properties in 11 other countries, which representfive per cent by value of the group's properties, were valued by differentindependent professionally qualified valuers. The September property revaluation, together with the revaluation of Hong Kongproperties undertaken in June 2006, has resulted in an increase in the group'srevaluation reserves of HK$1,356 million, net of deferred taxation of HK$383million, and a credit to the income statement of HK$389 million. Of the HK$389million credit to the income statement, HK$319 million represents the surplus onthe revaluation of investment properties and HK$70 million relates to thereversal of previous revaluation deficits that had arisen when the value ofcertain premises fell below depreciated historical cost. 30.
