The Group acquired Standard Chartered Nakornthon Bank (SCNB) (formerly
Nakornthon Bank) in September 1999. Under the terms of the acquisition,
non-performing loans (NPLs) of THB 35.24 billion ($849 million) are subject to a
Loan Management Agreement (LMA) with the Financial Institutions Development Fund
(FIDF), a Thai Government agency. Under the LMA, the FIDF has guaranteed the
recovery of a principal amount of the NPLs of THB 23 billion ($554 million). The
LMA also provides, inter alia, for loss sharing arrangements whereby the FIDF
will bear up to 85 per cent of losses in excess of the guaranteed amount. The
carrying cost of the NPLs is reimbursable by the FIDF to SCNB, every half year,
for a period of five years from the date of acquisition.
Excluding the SCNB non-performing loan portfolio, specific provisions and
interest in suspense together cover 48 per cent (30 June 2001: 50 per cent; 31
December 2001: 45 per cent) of total non-performing lending to customers. If
lending and provisions are adjusted for the cumulative amounts written off of
$1,645 million (30 June 2001: $1,362 million; 31 December 2001: $1,574 million),
the effective cover is 69 per cent (30 June 2001: 68 per cent; 31 December 2001:
67 per cent).

15. Change in accounting policies.
Financial Reporting Standard 19 - Deferred Tax ('FRS 19') is effective for
accounting periods ending on or after 23 January 2002, and the Group adopted
FRS19 in the current period.
It specifies the provisions that are required for deferred tax, which are on a
different basis to its predecessor, Statement of Standard Accounting Practice
15.
The adjustments have no effect on current or prior periods tax charge but affect
the Deferred Tax balances, and Reserves. The brought forward balances at 1
January 2001 have been restated as follows: the Deferred Tax Asset balance is
increased by $156 million, the Profit and Loss Reserves balance is increased by
$140 million and the Premises Revaluation Reserve is increased by $16 million.
In February 2002, the Urgent Issues Task Force issued Abstract 33 (UITF 33) -
'Obligations in Capital Instruments'. This reviewed the classification of
instruments that have the characteristics of both liabilities and shareholders'
funds and provided further guidance on the accounting treatment of these issues.
In 2001, the £300 million 8.103 per cent Step-up Callable Perpetual Trust
Preferred Securities and the Eur500 million 8.16 per cent non-cumulative Trust
Preferred Securities were treated as minority interests (non-equity) in the
consolidated accounts of Standard Chartered PLC, in accordance with Financial
Reporting Standard 4 - Capital Instruments.
As a result of complying with UITF 33 the instruments have been reclassified
from minority interests (non-equity) to liabilities. The restatement of
principal balances for the six months ended 30 June 2002, 30 June 2001 and 31
December 2001 are $951 million, $845 million and $878 million respectively. The
associated minority interest payable reclassified to interest payable are $36
million, $23 million and $36 million for the six months ended 30 June 2002, 30
June 2001 and 31 December 2001 respectively.
Comparative figures for the six months ended 30 June 2001 and 31 December 2001
are restated to reflect these changes to accounting policy.
Independent review report by KPMG Audit Plc to Standard Chartered PLC
Introduction
We have been instructed by the company to review the financial information set
out on pages 30 to 45 and we have read the other information contained in the
interim report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or
material inconsistencies with the financial information.
Directors' responsibilities
The interim report, including the financial information contained therein, is
the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors
are responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the Listing
Rules of the Financial Services Authority which require that the accounting
policies and presentation applied to the interim figures should be consistent
with those applied in preparing the preceding annual accounts except where they
are to be changed in the next annual accounts, in which case any changes and the
reasons for them are to be disclosed.
Review work performed
We conducted our review in accordance with guidance contained in Bulletin 1999/
4: Review of interim financial information issued by the Auditing Practices
Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review consists principally of making
enquiries of Group management and applying analytical procedures to the
financial information and underlying financial data and, based thereon,
assessing whether the accounting policies and presentation have been
consistently applied unless otherwise disclosed. A review is substantially less
in scope than an audit performed in accordance with Auditing Standards and
therefore provides a lower level of assurance than an audit. Accordingly, we do
not express an audit opinion on the financial information.
Review conclusion
On the basis of our review we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the financial information as presented for the six months
ended 30 June 2002.
KPMG Audit Plc
Chartered Accountants 7 August 2002
