BANKING STATISTICS (BANK PROFITABILITY - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF BANKS)
I. Introduction
This publication provides information on financial statements of banks in the 33 OECD Member countries for the period 1979-2009. The coverage of banks in this volume is not the same in each country, though the objective is to include all institutions which conduct ordinary banking business, namely institutions which primarily take deposits from the public at large and provide finance for a wide range of purposes. Some supplementary information on the number of reporting banks, their branches and staff is also included.
The standard framework used for presenting the statistics is according to the recommendations of the OECD Task Force on Bank Profitability. The preparation of this publication benefited from the work of Financial Statistics Section (of Financial Affairs Division) and could not have been accomplished without the assistance of the members of the OECD Group of Financial Statisticians and the national administrations which they represent. It is published on the responsibility of the Secretary-General of the OECD.
II. Statistical Coverage
A. Institutional coverage
The institutional coverage of the tables has been largely dictated by the availability of data on income and expenditure accounts of banks. As a result of the reporting methods which are being used in OECD countries, the tables are not integrated in the system of national accounts. International comparisons in the field of income and expenditure accounts
of banks are particularly difficult due to considerable differences in OECD countries as regards structural and regulatory features of national banking systems, accounting rules and practices, and reporting methods.
B. Geographical coverage
The statistics relate to 26 OECD Member countries: Austria, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Korea, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States.
C. Coverage of tables
Statistics are organised by country under three main categories of tables:
A Income statement and balance sheet by banking group B Structure of the financial system C Classification of bank assets and liabilities by resident/non-resident and domestic/foreign currency
D. Data components
National data are grouped and, where necessary, re-classified to fit as far as possible into the following standard frameworks of presentation.
Income statement
Interest income This item generally includes income on interest-bearing assets, fee income related to lending operations, and dividend income on shares and participations. In some cases it may also include income on bonds calculated as the difference between the book value and the redemption value of bonds.
Interest expenses This item generally includes interest paid on liabilities, fee expenses related to borrowing operations and may include in some cases the difference between the issue price on debt instruments and their par value.
Net interest income (item 1 minus item 2)
Non-interest income (net) a. Fees and commissions receivable b. Fees and commissions payable c. Net profit or loss on financial operations d. Other
This item is generally the net result of a number of different income and expense items (other than those included in items 1 and 2) such as the following: commissions received and paid in connection with payments services, securities transactions and related services (new issues, trading, portfolio management, safe-custody) and foreign exchange transactions in the banks' own name and on behalf of clients. Other income and expenses resulting from special transactions which do not represent ordinary and regular banking business may also be included. Realised losses and gains on foreign-exchange operations and securities transactions are generally included as well.
Gross income (item 3 plus item 4)
Operating expenses a. Staff costs b. Property costs c. Other
This item includes all expenses relating to the ordinary and regular banking business other than those included in items 2 and 4, particularly salaries and other employee benefits, including transfers to pension reserves (staff costs), and expenses for property and equipment and related depreciation expenses. Taxes other than income or corporate taxes are also included.
Net income (item 5 minus item 6)
Provisions (net) a. Provisions on loans b. Provisions on securities c. Other
This item includes, in part or in full, charges for value adjustments in respect of loans, credits and securities, book gains from such adjustments, losses on loans and transfers to and from reserves for possible losses on such assets. Realised gains or losses from foreign exchange transactions and securities transactions are, however, generally included under Non-interest income (net) (item 4).
