Statement of Directors' responsibilities
The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the European Union, and that the half-year management report herein includes a fair review of the information required by Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules 4.2.7R and 4.2.8R, namely:
- | An indication of important events that have occurred during the six months ended 30 June 2019 and their impact on the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the financial year, and |
- | Material related party transactions in the six months ended 30 June 2019 and any material changes in the related party transactions described in the last Annual Report. |
Principal risks
As a financial services provider, managing risk is a core part of our day-to-day activities. To be able to manage our business effectively, it is critical that we understand and control risk in everything we do. We aim to use a prudent approach and advanced risk management techniques to help us deliver robust financial performance and build sustainable value for our stakeholders. We aim to keep a predictable medium-low risk profile, consistent with our business model. This is key to achieving our strategic objectives.
30 June 2019 compared to 31 December 2018
There were no significant changes in our risk governance, including how we define risk and our key risk types, as described in the 2018 Annual Report.
In H119, we also renamed 'Strategic risk' as 'Strategic and Business risk' to reflect that its scope includes the risk of underperformance against planned objectives.

H119 compared to H118
By income statement line item, the movements were:
- | Net interest income was down 8%, largely impacted by pressure from the mortgage back book and £2.1bn of SVR attrition (Q219: £0.5bn). |
- | Non-interest income was down 10%, largely due to £63m of ring-fencing perimeter changes in CIB, partially offset by £15m additional consideration received in connection with the 2017 Vocalink sale. Following a change in accounting treatment of operating leases consumer (auto) finance income also increased. |
- | Operating expenses before credit impairment losses, provisions and charges were down 2%, largely due to £41m of ring-fencing perimeter changes and £28m of Banking Reform costs from H118, as well as £13m of transformation costs this year. We also incurred higher depreciation costs related to prior year investment projects and the change in accounting treatment of operating leases in consumer (auto) finance. These increases were partially offset by lower employee costs. |
- | Credit impairment losses decreased 24%, with a release from a significant risk transfer (SRT) securitisation in June 2019 and single name charges in CIB which were not repeated this year. All portfolios continue to perform very well. |
- | Provisions for other liabilities and charges were up £173m to £206m, with £100m of transformation programme charges (predominantly restructuring costs) in Corporate Centre and £70m PPI provision charge in Retail Banking. |
- | Profit before tax was down 35% to £589m, for the reasons outlined above. |
- | Tax on profit decreased £63m to £170m, as a result of lower taxable profits in H119, with PPI charges not tax deductible. |
PPI provision charge
- | At 30 June 2019, the remaining provision for redress and related costs was £248m (2018: £246m). This includes a provision for PPI redress as well as our best estimate of liability for a specific portfolio which was disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report. |
- | We made an additional provision of £70m in Q219 reflecting an increase in PPI claims volumes, additional industry activities and having considered guidance provided by the FCA, in advance of the PPI claims deadline on 29 August 2019. |
- | We will continue to monitor our provision levels, and take account of the impact of any further change in claims received and FCA guidance. |
PROFIT BEFORE TAX BY SEGMENT
The segmental information in this Half Yearly Financial Report reflects the reporting structure in place at the reporting date. For more, see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
- | Retail Banking offers a wide range of products and financial services to individuals and small businesses through a network of branches and ATMs, as well as through telephony, digital and intermediary channels. Retail Banking includes business banking customers, small businesses with an annual turnover up to £6.5m, and Santander Consumer Finance, predominantly a vehicle finance business. |
- | Corporate & Commercial Banking covers businesses with an annual turnover of £6.5m to £500m. Corporate & Commercial Banking offers a wide range of products and financial services provided by relationship teams that are based in a network of regional CBCs and through telephony and digital channels. |
- | Corporate & Investment Banking services corporate clients with an annual turnover of £500m and above. CIB clients require specially tailored solutions and value-added services due to their size, complexity and sophistication. We provide these clients with products to manage currency fluctuations, protect against interest rate risk, and arrange capital markets finance and specialist trade finance solutions, as well as providing support to the rest of Santander UK's business segments. |
- | Corporate Centre mainly includes the treasury, non-core corporate and legacy portfolios, including Crown Dependencies. Corporate Centre is also responsible for managing capital and funding, balance sheet composition, structure, pension and strategic liquidity risk. To enable a more targeted and strategically aligned apportionment of capital and other resources, revenues and costs incurred in Corporate Centre are allocated to the three business segments. The non-core corporate and legacy portfolios are being run-down and/or managed for value. |

H119 compared to H118
For Retail Banking, profit before tax was lower, largely impacted by pressure from the mortgage back book and £2.1bn of SVR attrition. Following a change in accounting treatment of operating leases, higher non-interest income was partially offset by higher operating expenses.
For Corporate & Commercial Banking, profit before tax was lower, largely due to the interest expense related to the 2018 SRT securitisations. Credit impairment losses decreased £13m, as a result of a release from the completion of the June 2019 SRT securitisation.
For Corporate & Investment Banking, profit before tax was lower largely reflecting the changes in the statutory perimeter, following the transfers of activities to Banco Santander London Branch as part of ring-fence implementation.
For Corporate Centre, loss before tax was largely due to transformation programme investment of £113m, as well as the impact of holding higher liquidity and lower yields on non-core assets. Following ring-fence implementation, some short-term markets activity is now accounted for in net interest income, rather than non-interest income.

30 June 2019 compared to 31 December 2018
Assets
Cash and balances at central banks
Cash and balances at central banks increased by 11% to £21,936m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £19,747m) due to higher balances with the Bank of England, partially offset by lower cash balances in the retail branches.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss:
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss decreased by 43% to £6,190m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £10,876m), mainly due to:
- | £2.1bn of senior tranches of credit linked notes, which were previously classified as other financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, are now presented on a net basis. For more information see Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. |
- | The maturity of non-trading reverse repurchase agreements held at FVTPL, which totalled £2.3bn at 31 December 2018. |
Financial assets at amortised cost:
Financial assets at amortised cost increased by 1% to £234,127m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £232,444m), mainly due to:
- | Customer loans increased £0.7bn, with higher mortgage and consumer (auto) finance lending partially offset by a reduction in Corporate & Investment Banking and CRE exposures. |
- | Reverse repurchase agreements - non trading increasing by £1.3bn, reflecting the classification of all non-trading reverse repurchase agreements at amortised cost in line with our ring-fenced model and as part of normal liquidity risk management. |
These increases were partially offset by a decrease of £0.7bn in loans and advances to banks.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment increased by 13% to £2,069m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £1,832m) mainly due to the application of IFRS 16 with effect from 1 January 2019.
Retirement benefit assets
Retirement benefit assets decreased by 7% to £779m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £842m). This was mainly due to actuarial losses in the period driven by a fall in gilt yields and a narrowing of credit spreads, partially offset by asset growth mainly driven by the increase in gilt values.
Tax, intangibles and other assets
Tax, intangibles and other assets increased by 39% to £5,892m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £4,241m), mainly due to the settlement timings of financial transactions with payment agents in the normal course of business.
Liabilities
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss decreased by 55% to £3,408m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £7,655m), mainly due to:
- | £2.1bn of senior cash deposits, which were previously classified as other financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, are now presented on a net basis. For more information see Note 16 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. |
- | The maturity of non-trading repurchase agreements held at FVTPL, which totalled £2.1bn at 31 December 2018. |
These decreases were partially offset by a small increase in the carrying value of derivative liabilities.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
Financial liabilities at amortised cost increased by 1% to £260,096m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £256,514m). This was mainly due to the following:
- | Repurchase agreements - non trading increased by £3.9bn reflecting the classification of all non-trading repurchase agreements at amortised cost in line with our ring-fenced model and as part of normal liquidity risk management. |
- | Customer deposits increased £2.4bn, driven by higher corporate deposits as well as increased savings and business banking deposits in Retail Banking. |
- | Deposits by banks decreased by £0.7bn due to a reduction in the deposits placed with Banco Santander and lower balances held as cash collateral. |
- | Debt securities in issue decreased by £2.1bn, reflecting maturities in the period, partially offset by covered bond issuances of £1bn in February 2019 and €1bn in May 2019, as well as a senior unsecured issuance of $1bn in June 2019. |
Retirement benefit obligations
Retirement benefit obligations increased by £138m to £252m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £114m). This was mainly due to actuarial losses in the period driven by a fall in gilt yields and a narrowing of credit spreads, partially offset by asset growth mainly driven by the increase in gilt values.
Tax, other liabilities and provisions
Tax, other liabilities and provisions increased by 48% to £4,707m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £3,180m) mainly due to the settlement timings of financial transactions with payment agents in the normal course of business.
Equity
Total shareholders' equity
Total shareholders' equity increased slightly by 1% to £15,905m at 30 June 2019 (2018: £15,758m). This net increase was principally due to retained profits for the period and increases in the fair value of effective cash flow hedges, partially offset by reductions in the defined benefit surplus and own credit adjustments.

Analysis of capital is included in the Capital risk section of the Risk review.
30 June 2019 compared to 31 December 2018
- | RWAs reduced largely as a result of the June 2019 SRT securitisation and lower lending in our corporate business as we continue to focus on risk-weighted returns. This was partially offset by increased RWAs in Retail Banking with lending growth in mortgages and consumer (auto) finance. |
- | We take a prudent approach to risk and our calculation of RWAs uses through-the-cycle modelling of unexpected losses. As a result we have a higher mortgage RWA translation ratio than other large UK banks. Following implementation of planned PRA changes by 1 January 2021, RWA calculation models will have to use a hybrid of through-the-cycle and point-in-time assumptions and as a result we expect a significant decrease in our RWAs. |

- | We continue to maintain high levels of liquidity to ensure we are well prepared for potential Brexit uncertainty later in the year. |
- | The RFB DoLSub LCR and LCR eligible liquidity pool both decreased following the transfer of our Isle of Man and Jersey businesses (Crown Dependencies) into ANTS as part of ring-fencing implementation. |
Proposed changes to our operating companies' structure
- | As part of ring-fencing implementation, Santander UK Group Holdings plc adopted a wide ring-fenced bank model with most of our operations within Santander UK plc, the ring-fenced bank. ANTS is outside the RFB and also holds wealth management businesses in the Crown Dependencies, which are not permitted within the ring-fence as they are located outside the UK. |
- | To optimise our overall funding structure, Santander UK Group Holdings plc is considering the transfer of some RFB assets to ANTS to enable more efficient use of Crown Dependencies deposits. |

This is an ongoing telephone based survey designed to monitor usage and attitude of UK businesses towards banks. 15,000 structured telephone interviews are conducted each year among businesses of all sizes from new start-ups to large corporates. The data is based upon 9,925 interviews made in twelve months ended 30 June 2019 with businesses turning over from £0 - £500m per annum and are weighted by region and turnover to be representative of businesses in Great Britain. NPS - recommendation score is based on an 11 point scale (%Top 2 - %Bottom 7). The competitor set included in this analysis is Barclays, RBS, HSBC, Lloyds Bank, TSB and NatWest. The Financial Research Survey (FRS) is a monthly personal finance survey of around 5,000 consumers prepared by the independent market research agency, IPSOS MORI. The NPS is based on a 11-point scale (%Top2 - %Bottom 7) across mortgages, savings, main current accounts, home insurance, UPLs and credit cards, based on a weighting of those products calculated to reflect the average product distribution across Santander UK and competitor brands. Data shown is for the twelve months ended 30 June 2019, based on 13,803 interviews and compared against twelve months ended data for the period as indicated. The competitor set used to calculate the product weights is Barclays, Halifax, HSBC, Lloyds Bank, Nationwide, NatWest, TSB and RBS. The competitor set included in this analysis for the ranking and highest performing peers is Barclays, Halifax, HSBC, Lloyds Bank, Nationwide, NatWest, TSB and RBS. |

1. Accounting policies
The financial information in these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the UK Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2018 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those accounts was unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain a statement under section 498(2) of the UK Companies Act 2006.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period. All such adjustments to the financial information are of a normal, recurring nature. Because the results from common banking activities are so closely related and responsive to changes in market conditions, the results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Union, and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules sourcebook of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). They do not include all the information and disclosures normally required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Santander UK plc (the Santander UK group) for the year ended 31 December 2018 which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union. Those Consolidated Financial Statements were also prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB including interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the IASB (together IFRS). The Santander UK group has also complied with its legal obligation to comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union as there are no applicable differences between the two frameworks for the periods presented.
Except as noted below, the same accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation are followed in these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements as were applied in the presentation of the Santander UK group's 2018 Annual Report.
Recent accounting developments
IFRS 16
On 1 January 2019 the Santander UK group adopted IFRS 16 'Leases' (IFRS 16) and the revised accounting policies as lessee which have been applied from 1 January 2019 are set out below. Comparatives have not been restated. The impact of applying IFRS 16 is disclosed in section (ii).
i) Accounting policy change
The Santander UK group as lessee
The Santander UK group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease at the inception of the contract and recognises a right-of-use (ROU) asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments for all leases, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less which are expensed in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Lease payments exclude irrecoverable VAT which is expensed in the income statement as lease payments are made.
The lease liability, which is included within Other liabilities on the balance sheet, is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate appropriate to the lease term. The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Remeasurement of the lease liability occurs if there is a change in the lease payments (when a corresponding adjustment is made to the ROU asset), the lease term or in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
At inception, the ROU asset, which is included within Property, plant and equipment on the balance sheet, comprises the lease liability, initial direct costs and the obligations to restore the asset, less any incentives granted by the lessor. The ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset and is reviewed for indications of impairment as for owned assets. The obligation to restore the asset is included within Provisions on the balance sheet.
ii) Impact of adoption
IFRS 16 became effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. For lessee accounting, IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model which requires the recognition of a ROU asset representing the lessee's right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. For lessor accounting, IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the requirements from the previous leasing standard (IAS 17) and a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases and to account for those two types of leases differently.
The Santander UK group elected to apply the modified retrospective approach whereby the ROU asset at the date of initial application was measured at an amount equal to the lease liability. The ROU asset was adjusted for any prepaid lease payments and incentives relating to the relevant leases that were recognised on the balance sheet at 31 December 2018 and included an estimate of the costs of restoring the underlying assets to the condition required by the terms of the lease.
The application of IFRS 16 at 1 January 2019 increased property, plant and equipment by £211m (being the net increase in ROU assets referred to above), reduced other assets by £12m, increased other liabilities by £182m from recognising lease liabilities, and increased provisions by £17m (see Note 21). There was no impact on shareholders' equity. The amount of the lease liabilities above differed from the amount of operating lease commitments disclosed in Note 32 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report due to the effects of discounting the lease liabilities and excluding short-term leases that are outside the scope of IFRS 16.
In addition to the choice of transition approach, the determination of the discount rate is the most significant area of judgement. The Santander UK group applies an incremental borrowing rate (based on 3-month GBP LIBOR plus a credit spread to reflect the cost of raising unsecured funding in the wholesale markets) appropriate to the relevant remaining lease term.
IAS 12
The Santander UK group has also applied the amendment to IAS 12 'Income Taxes' (part of 'Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2015-2017 Cycle') in these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. The amendment clarifies that the income tax consequences of dividends on financial instruments classified as equity should be recognised according to where the past transactions or events that generated distributable profits were recognised. This means that, to the extent that profits from which dividends on equity instruments were recognised in the income statement, the income tax consequences would be similarly recognised in the same statement. The amendment, which has been applied retrospectively, reduces the effective tax rate where the tax relief on dividends in respect of other equity instruments is recognised in the income statement rather than in equity. There was no impact on shareholders' equity from applying the amendment to IAS 12 at 1 January 2019. The impact of the amendment to IAS 12 on the income statement for H119 was to reduce tax on profit by £21m (H118: £23m), increasing profit after tax by the same amount.
Going Concern
After making enquiries, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that Santander UK has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least twelve months from the date that the balance sheet is signed. Having reassessed the principal risks and uncertainties, the Directors consider it appropriate to adopt the 'going concern' basis of accounting in preparing the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements requires management to make judgements and accounting estimates that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and the reported amount of income and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates its judgements and accounting estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these accounting estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
In the course of preparing the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, no significant judgements have been made in the process of applying the accounting policies, other than those involving estimations about credit impairment losses, conduct remediation and pensions.
There have been no significant changes in the basis upon which judgements and accounting estimates have been determined compared to that applied in the 2018 Annual Report.
a) Credit impairment allowance
Sensitivity of ECL allowance
At 30 June 2019, the probability-weighted ECL allowance totalled £817m (2018: £807m), of which £801m (2018: £789m) related to exposures in Retail Banking, Corporate & Commercial Banking and Corporate Centre, and £16m (2018: £18m) related to exposures in Corporate & Investment Banking.
Probability weights
The amounts shown in the tables below illustrate the ECL allowances that would have arisen had management applied a 100% weighting to each economic scenario, and were calculated using the same methodology described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the Credit risk section of the Risk review, within the 2018 Annual Report.
ECL for Retail Banking, Corporate & Commercial Banking and Corporate Centre | Upside 2 £m | Upside 1 £m | Base case £m | Downside 1 £m | Downside 2 £m |
30 June 2019 | 601 | 629 | 667 | 861 | 1,726 |
31 December 2018 | 554 | 596 | 648 | 843 | 1,930 |
ECL for Corporate & Investment Banking(1) | Upside £m | Base case £m | Downside £m |
30 June 2019 | 7 | 14 | 23 |
31 December 2018 | 8 | 17 | 27 |
(1) | As described in more detail in the 'Santander UK Group Level - Credit Risk Management' section in the 2018 Annual Report, our Corporate & Investment Banking segment uses three forward-looking economic scenarios, whereas our other segments use five scenarios. The results of the 100% weighting ECL for the Corporate & Investment Banking segment are therefore presented separately. |
b) Provisions
Sensitivity of PPI conduct remediation provision
At 30 June 2019, the remaining provision for redress and related costs was £248m (2018: £246m). We made an additional provision of £70m in Q219 reflecting an increase in PPI claims volumes, additional industry activities and having considered guidance provided by the FCA, in advance of the PPI claims deadline on 29 August 2019.
Had management used different assumptions around future expected claims, a larger or smaller provision charge would have resulted that could have had a material impact on the Santander UK group's reported profit before tax. For more on the provision for PPI conduct remediation, including details on the future expected claims assumption, and the associated sensitivity, see Note 21.
2. SEGMENTS
The Santander UK group's business is managed and reported on the basis of the following segments: Retail Banking, Corporate & Commercial Banking, Corporate & Investment Banking and Corporate Centre. The segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business has different customers and requires different technology and marketing strategies. The segmental basis of presentation in these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements has been changed, and the prior period has been restated, for the following:
- | To report our short term markets business in Corporate Centre rather than in Corporate & Investment Banking. This reflects the run down or transfer to Banco Santander London Branch of the prohibited part of the business in 2018, as part of the transition to our ring-fenced model, with the remaining permitted business forming part of our liquidity risk management function. |
- | As reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report, to report our Jersey and Isle of Man branches in Corporate Centre rather than in Retail Banking, as a result of their transfer from Santander UK plc to ANTS in December 2018. |

Interim period corporation tax is accrued based on the estimated average annual effective corporation tax for the year of 28.9% (H118: 25.7%). The standard rate of UK corporation tax was 27% for banking entities and 19% for non-banking entities (2018: 27% for banking entities and 19% for non-banking entities) following the introduction of an 8% surcharge to be applied to banking companies from 1 January 2016. Taxation for other jurisdictions is calculated at the rates prevailing in the relevant jurisdictions. The Finance Act 2016, introduced a further reduction in the standard rate of corporation tax rate to 17% from 2020. The effects of this future change in tax rates is included in the deferred tax balances at both 30 June 2019 and 31 December 2018.

Conduct remediation
At 30 June 2019, the remaining provision for Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) redress and related costs was £248m. This includes a provision for PPI redress as well as our best estimate of liability for a specific portfolio which was disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report.
For every additional 25,000 inbound PPI complaints above the future expected claims of c.311k from June to the end of the industry deadline, we would expect an additional charge of £6.9m.
30 June 2019 compared to 31 December 2018
We made an additional provision of £70m in Q219 reflecting an increase in PPI claims volumes, additional industry activities and having considered guidance provided by the FCA, in advance of the PPI claims deadline on 29 August 2019.
We will continue to monitor our provision levels and take account of the impact of any further change in claims received and FCA guidance.
Property
Property provisions include vacant property provisions, as described in Note 30 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report, and property dilapidation provisions within the scope of IFRS 16.
Property provisions were impacted by £38m of transformation charges in H119. These relate to a multi-year project to deliver on our strategic priorities and enhance efficiency in order for us to better serve our customers and meet our medium term targets. Q119 charges largely related to restructuring of our branch network associated with the announcement made earlier in the year to reshape our branch network.
Regulatory and other
Regulatory and other provisions were impacted by £62m of transformation charges in H119, also relating to the multi-year project described above. In addition to the Q119 charges largely related to the restructuring of our branch network, further charges in Q219 were largely associated with the announced plans to reshape our Corporate & Commercial Banking business.
22. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
The amounts recognised in the balance sheet were as follows:
30 June 2019£m | 31 December 2018£m | |

Funded defined benefit pension scheme - deficit | (213) | (75) |
Unfunded defined benefit pension scheme | (39) | (39) |
Total net assets | 527 | 728 |
a) Defined contribution pension plans
An expense of £34m (H118: £23m) was recognised for defined contribution plans in the period and is included in staff costs classified within operating expenses (see Note 4). None of this amount was recognised in respect of key management personnel for H119 and H118.
b) Defined benefit pension schemes
The total amount charged to the income statement was £10m (H118: £22m).
Movements in the present value of defined benefit obligations and fair value of scheme assets in H119 and H118 were as follows:
Half year to 30 June 2019£m | Half year to 30 June 2018£m | |
Return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest expense) | (916) | 72 |
Actuarial (gains)/losses arising from experience adjustments | (5) | 39 |
Actuarial losses/(gains) arising from changes in financial assumptions | 1,201 | (640) |

Fair value of scheme assets | 12,507 | 11,532 |
Net defined benefit assets | 527 | 728 |
Actuarial assumptions
There have been no significant changes to the methods for setting the principal actuarial assumptions used as set out in Note 31 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report.
23. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS
30 June 2019£m | 31 December 2018 £m | |
Guarantees given to third parties | 1,055 | 1,610 |
Formal standby facilities, credit lines and other commitments | 41,851 | 40,111 |
42,906 | 41,721 |
Other legal actions and regulatory matters
Santander UK engages in discussion, and co-operates, with the FCA, PRA and other regulators and government agencies in various jurisdictions in their supervision and review of Santander UK including reviews exercised under statutory powers, regarding its interaction with past and present customers, both as part of general thematic work and in relation to specific products, services and activities. During the ordinary course of business, Santander UK is also subject to complaints and threatened legal proceedings brought by or on behalf of current or former employees, customers, investors or other third parties, in addition to legal and regulatory reviews, challenges and tax or enforcement investigations or proceedings in various jurisdictions. All such matters are assessed periodically to determine the likelihood of Santander UK incurring a liability.
In those instances where it is concluded that it is not yet probable that a quantifiable payment will be made, for example because the facts are unclear or further time is required to fully assess the merits of the case or to reasonably quantify the expected payment, no provision is made. In addition where it is not currently practicable to estimate the possible financial effect of these matters, no provision is made.
Payment Protection Insurance
Note 21 details our provisions including those in relation to PPI. In relation to a specific PPI portfolio of complaints, a legal dispute regarding allocation of liability is ongoing. There are factual issues to be resolved which may have legal consequences including in relation to liability. These issues create uncertainties which mean that it is difficult to reliably predict the resolution of the matter including timing or the significance of the possible impact. The PPI provision includes our best estimate of Santander UK's liability to the specific portfolio. Further information has not been provided on the basis that it would be seriously prejudicial.
German dividend tax arbitrage transactions
Santander UK plc, ANTS and Cater Allen International Limited (all subsidiaries of Santander UK Group Holdings plc) are currently under investigation by the Cologne Criminal Prosecution Office and the German Federal Tax Office in relation to historical involvement in German dividend tax arbitrage transactions (known as cum/ex transactions). We are cooperating with the German authorities and are conducting our own internal investigation into the matters in question. There are factual issues to be resolved which may have legal consequences including potentially material financial penalties. These issues create uncertainties which mean that it is difficult to predict with reasonable certainty the resolution of the matter including timing or the significance of the possible impact.
27. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES
The financial position and performance of the Santander UK group have not been materially affected in H119 by any related party transactions, or changes to related party transactions. These transactions were made in the ordinary course of business, on substantially the same terms as for comparable transactions with third party counterparties, and within limits acceptable to the PRA. Such transactions do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present any unfavourable features. In addition, transactions with pension schemes operated by the Santander UK group are described in Note 31 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report.
28. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
a) Measurement basis of financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured on an ongoing basis either at fair value or at amortised cost. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report describes how the classes of financial instruments are measured, and how income and expenses, including fair value gains and losses, are recognised.
At 30 June 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Santander UK group categorised assets and liabilities measured at fair value within the fair value hierarchy based on the fair value measurement and hierarchy, and valuation techniques, described in Note 41(b) and (c) to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report.
b) Fair values of financial instruments carried at amortised cost
The following table analyses the fair value of the financial instruments carried at amortised cost at 30 June 2019 and 31 December 2018. It does not include fair value information for financial assets and financial liabilities carried at amortised cost if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value. Details of the valuation methodology of the financial assets and financial liabilities carried at amortised cost can be found in Note 41(e) to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2018 Annual Report.

d) Fair value adjustments
The internal models incorporate assumptions that Santander UK believes would be made by a market participant to establish fair value. Fair value adjustments are adopted when Santander UK considers that there are additional factors that would be considered by a market participant that are not incorporated in the valuation model.
Santander UK classifies fair value adjustments as either 'risk-related' or 'model-related'. The fair value adjustments form part of the portfolio fair value and are included in the balance sheet values of the product types to which they have been applied. The magnitude and types of fair value adjustment are listed in the following table:
30 June 2019£m | 31 December 2018£m | |
Risk-related: | ||
- Bid-offer and trade specific adjustments | 17 | 13 |
- Uncertainty | 37 | 36 |
- Credit risk adjustment | 8 | 9 |
- Funding fair value adjustment | 5 | 4 |
67 | 62 | |
Model-related | 1 | 5 |
