- This Reporting Standard is made under section 13 of the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001.
Purpose
2. Data collected in Reporting Form ARF 330.2 Other Operating Income (ARF 330.2) is used by APRA for the purpose of prudential supervision. It may also be used by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
Application and commencement

4. This Reporting Standard commences on 1 April 2018.
Information required
5. An ADI to which this Reporting Standard applies must provide APRA with the information required by the version of ARF 330.2 designated for a ‘Licensed ADI’ for each reporting period.
6. An ADI to which this Reporting Standard applies that is a highest parent entity in relation to a consolidated ADI group must also provide APRA the information required by the version of ARF 330.2 designated for a ‘Consolidated Group’ for each reporting period.
Form and method of submission

Note: the Direct to APRA application software (also known as D2A) may be obtained from APRA.
Reporting periods and due dates
8. Subject to paragraph 9, an ADI to which this Reporting Standard applies must provide the information required by this Reporting Standard for each quarter based on the financial year (within the meaning of the Corporations Act 2001) of the ADI.
9. APRA may, by notice in writing, change the reporting periods, or specified reporting periods, for a particular ADI, to require it to provide the information required by this Reporting Standard more frequently, or less frequently, having regard to:
(a) the particular circumstances of the ADI;

13. All information provided by an ADI under this Reporting Standard must be subject to processes and controls developed by the ADI for the internal review and authorisation of that information. These systems, processes and controls are to assure the completeness and reliability of the information provided.
Authorisation

Reporting Form ARF 330.2
Other Operating Income
Instruction Guide
Reporting entity
This form is to be completed by all authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs) on both a licensed ADI and consolidated ADI group basis (where applicable).
Branches of foreign banks are required to complete this form for the Australian branch only.
Licensed ADI
This refers to the operations of the reporting ADI on a stand-alone basis.
Securitisation deconsolidation principle
Except as otherwise specified in these instructions, the following applies:
- Where an ADI (or a member of its Level 2 consolidated group) participates in a securitisation that meets APRA’s operational requirements for regulatory capital relief under Prudential Standard APS 120 Securitisation (APS 120):
(a) special purpose vehicles (SPVs) holding securitised assets may be treated as non-consolidated independent third parties for regulatory reporting purposes, irrespective of whether the SPVs (or their assets) are consolidated for accounting purposes;
(b) the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the relevant SPVs may be excluded from the ADI’s reported amounts in APRA’s regulatory reporting returns; and
(c) the underlying exposures (i.e. the pool) under such a securitisation may be excluded from the calculation of the ADI’s regulatory capital (refer to APS 120). However, the ADI must still hold regulatory capital for the securitisation exposures that it retains or acquires and such exposures are to be reported in Reporting Form ARF 120.1 Securitisation – Regulatory Capital. The risk-weighted assets (RWA) relating to such securitisation exposures must also be reported in Reporting Form ARF 110.0.1 Capital Adequacy (Level 1) and Reporting Form ARF 110.0.2 Capital Adequacy (Level 2).
2. Where an ADI (or a member of its Level 2 consolidated group) participates in a securitisation that does not meet APRA’s operational requirements for regulatory capital relief under APS 120, or the ADI undertakes a funding-only securitisation or synthetic securitisation, such exposures are to be reported as on-balance sheet assets in APRA’s regulatory reporting returns. In addition, these exposures must also be reported as a part of the ADI’s total securitised assets within Reporting Form ARF 120.2 Securitisation – Supplementary Items.
Consolidated ADI group
The basis of consolidation required in this form is in accordance with the accounting consolidated group. The accounting consolidated group is to be determined in accordance with the requirements of the Australian accounting standards, notably AASB 127 and AASB 3.
Exclude from the accounting consolidated group SPVs whose assets have satisfied the clean sale requirements set down in APS 120 (refer to Securitisation deconsolidation principle).
Reporting period
The form is to be completed as at the last day of the stated reporting quarter on a financial year-to-date basis of the ADI. Australian-owned banks, foreign subsidiary banks, branches of foreign banks and other ADIs should submit the completed form to APRA within 25 business days after the end of the relevant reporting quarter. Credit Unions, Cairns Penny Savings & Loans Limited and Building Societies should submit the completed form to APRA within 15 business days after the end of the relevant reporting quarter.
Amounts denominated in foreign currency are to be converted to AUD in accordance with AASB 121 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates (AASB 121).
The general requirements of AASB 121 for translation are:
- foreign currency monetary items outstanding at the reporting date must be translated at the spot rate at the reporting date;
- foreign currency non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency must be translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction;
- foreign currency non-monetary items that are measured at fair value will be translated at the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined.
Transactions arising under foreign currency derivative contracts at the reporting date must be prepared in accordance with AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (AASB 139). However, those foreign currency derivatives that are not within the scope of AASB 139 (e.g. some foreign currency derivatives that are embedded in other contracts) remain within the scope of AASB 121.
For APRA purposes equity items must be translated using the foreign currency exchange rate at the date of investment or acquisition. Post-acquisition changes in equity are required to be translated on the date of the movement.
As foreign currency derivatives are measured at fair value, the currency derivative contracts are translated at the spot rate at the reporting date.
Exchange differences should be recognised in profit and loss in the period which they arise. For foreign currency derivatives, the exchange differences would be recognised immediately in profit and loss if the hedging instrument is a fair value hedge. For derivatives used in a cash flow hedge, the exchange differences should be recognised directly in equity.
The ineffective portion of the exchange differences in all hedges would be recognised in profit and loss; and
Basis of preparation
In completing this form, unless otherwise specifically stated, institutions are recommended to follow the Australian accounting standards regarding the:
