Basel Infrastructure Survey 202 Introduction Financial services institutions are struggling to keep pace with evolving regulatory standards. In the past year alone, new proposals by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) and U.S. regulators have increased capital requirements and stated minimums for regulatory capital ratio levels. That rising bar comes on top of an already demanding set of compliance needs. In addition to Basel I and II, for instance, banks must address unfolding standards being developed for newer rules and guidance, such as Basel II. (Final Market Risk Capital Rule), Basel III and Notices for Proposed Rulemaking (NPRs). Those changes may hit U.S. institutions especially hard since they have been slower to implement Basel II+ standards than many European and global peers due to uncertainty over the final scope of the rules being crafted. That means conforming existing data management and reporting processes to existing regulations, while staying alert to the impact changing guidelines and a host of domestic regulatory activity might have on those systems. These factors add to an increasingly complex environment and make for tough management decisions. In choosing where to direct limited financial and human resources, leaders must weigh the need for immediate improvements in cost and process efficiency against the longer-term risk of investing in multiple upgrades as rules and reporting needs change. In anticipation of continuing efforts by U.S. financial institutions to implement and further develop their infrastructures, KPMG LLP (KPMG) conducted a Basel Infrastructure Survey to benchmark progress that the financial industry has made to date, and identify some of the key issues encountered. In particular, this survey highlights some of the practical challenges for key elements of infrastructure such as data sourcing and inputs, calculations, and reporting capabilities across various functional and technology groups. 202 KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership and the U.S. member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative ( KPMG International ), a Swiss entity.

2 Basel Infrastructure Survey 202 Scope survey and participants Respondent characteristics KPMG s Basel Infrastructure Survey, conducted between April and August 20, polled nearly 2 senior information technology (IT) executives from eight leading financial institutions. Participating banks ranged in size from approximately $00B to $2T in balance sheet assets and included a mix of retail, wholesale, and universal institutions. To be eligible for the benchmark, banks had to based in the United States or, if overseas, maintain significant U.S. banking operations. No attempt was made to use scientific sampling techniques, and as such, the findings may be viewed as directional. Assets size of participant banks Segmentation 2.% 2.% <$00bn $00bn $000bn >$000b 38% 2% Wholesale Retail Universal 7% 37% Total assets as of 09/30/20.

Basel Infrastructure Survey 202 3 Summary of key findings The survey examined the key Basel infrastructure challenges across four key areas throughout the survey. Key observations are noted as follows: Overall Basel reporting progress Data sourcing and input Calculation Reporting Majority of organizations surveyed have robust Basel II processes Ongoing efforts to improve data quality and automate calculations Projects to streamline end-user computing and optimize workflow and processes Basel II. and III estimates pro forma driven, automation projects underway Some banks must address new and multiple sets of rules and regulations. Inconsistent processes across business segments and products Data attributes required for capital calculations missing or insufficient granularity Upstream data integrity challenges introduces complexity into workflows Accountability and ownership of data sourcing across organizations key challenge. Multiple systems and tools used for performing calculations remain segregated Opportunities exist to revisit use of proxies and simplifying assumptions Capturing full netting benefits dependent on remediating some data quality issues. Many banks rely on time-consuming manual solutions for reporting purposes Appetite for more frequent reporting stresses infrastructure and staff capacity Filings to external regulators differs from internal reporting requirements Struggle between risk and finance functions for ownership of segment reporting. 202 KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership and the U.S. member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative ( KPMG International ), a Swiss entity.

4 Basel Infrastructure Survey 202 Survey results Survey results indicate that many U.S. banks are taking partial steps to address the anticipated changes rather than full-scale revision to processes, systems, and governance structures. Moreover, many infrastructure implementations continue to evolve in both scope and approach for implementing various regulatory requirements. Results suggest that banks are waiting for final U.S. rules before taking substantial action to apply a holistic automated solution for capital and governance processes promulgated through international regulatory guidance. Survey results revealed insights from 20 summary questions on the current state of Basel infrastructure implementations used for risk measurement management and the regulatory capital environment. The results are organized across four key implementation issues as follows throughout the survey: I. Overall Basel compliance process II. Data sourcing and input III. Calculation IV. Reporting I.

0 Basel Infrastructure Survey 202 Conclusion As banking legislation continues to transform, financial institutions should expect to see continued scope change and will continue to invest substantial resources into implementation projects for their Basel programs. This evolving regulatory landscape will present challenges and opportunities to Basel infrastructure programs. Some difficulties may include additional complexity and redundancy into some infrastructures as banks consolidate and streamline Basel infrastructures in to support multiple Basel calculations based on legacy flows and systems. Basel infrastructure projects could also face the increasing reliance and dependencies on data across groups and from upstream sources that may continue to challenge automation projects relying on quality and controlled input data. Advancements in Basel infrastructure can also lead to greater efficiencies and more accurate business reporting. Transparency into calculations and capturing adjustments, exceptions, and approval flows can be achieved as workflow and reporting capabilities continue to gain focus. Also, the incorporation of additional automation tools to support dayover-day analysis capabilities can be expected to realize time savings and mitigate calculation risk over traditional, manual reporting. In addition, further integration of Basel strategic capital architectures for regulatory reporting with other risk and financial reporting functions can lead to help management gain an enterprise view of data populations and elements. As financial services strive to manage risk and capital in a more accurate, effective, and efficient manner in a dynamic regulatory environment, banks can take steps now to evaluate and adjust the necessary investments in budget, resources, and time to make strategic decisions that will enhance their Basel infrastructure. 202 KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership and the U.S. member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative ( KPMG International ), a Swiss entity.
