ANZ Financial Performance Overview
SECTION 3
We have rebalanced the bank's lending portfolio
Corporate versus Retail Lines of Business
ANZ has refocused the loan book towards lower risk retail
lines of business through:
1. Corporate to retail lines of businesses
In 2003, Gross Lending Assets are split approx.
66/34% across retail and corporate lines of business
(compared with an approx. 43/57% split in 1996)
• ANZ's retail lending franchise has been underpinned
by robust residential mortgage growth

Businesses
• Sustained market share gains in the SME segment
and a leadership position in asset finance have also
contributed to the re-weighting of the loan portfolio
towards retail lines of business

2. Non-core to core markets
• Further, ANZ has re-
orientated its loan book
towards domestic lending
opportunities and to
improving the quality of its
international diversification
• International exposure,
outside our core domestic
markets of Australia and
NZ, within the loan book
has been reduced from
approx. 15% of Gross
Lending Assets in 1996 to
approx. 6% in 2003.
