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 14 to 32 and we have read the other information contained in the
press release and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or
material inconsistencies with the financial information.
Directors responsibilities
The press release, including the financial information contained therein, is
the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The Listing
Rules of the Financial Services Authority 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. 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 2001.
