Liquidity coverage ratio disclosure

The objective of the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) is to promote the short-term resilience of the liquidity risk profile of banks by ensuring 
that they have sufficient high quality liquid assets to survive a significant stress scenario lasting 30 calendar days.

In accordance with the provisions of section 6(6) of the South African Banks Act 1990 (Act No. 94 of 1990), banks are directed to comply with 
the relevant LCR disclosure requirements. This disclosure Template LIQ1 is in accordance with Pillar 3 of the Basel III liquidity accord, as 
specified by BCBS d400 (2017) and Directive 01/2018.

The following table sets out the LCR for the group and bank:

Commentary

These reviewed interim condensed consolidated financial results are published to provide information to holders of Investec Bank Limited's 
listed non-redeemable, non-cumulative, non-participating preference shares.

Overview of results

Investec Bank Limited, a subsidiary of Investec Limited, posted a decrease in headline earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders of 
7.2% to R2 038 million (2017: R2 196 million). An increase in profit before tax of 3.7%, was offset by a higher tax charge off a low base in 
the prior period.

The balance sheet remains sound with a capital adequacy ratio of 15.2% (1 April 2018: 15.4%). For full information on the Investec Group results, 
refer to the combined results of Investec plc and Investec Limited on the group's website https://www.investec.com.

Financial review

Unless the context indicates otherwise, all comparatives referred to in the financial review relate to the six months ended 30 September 2017.

Salient operational features for the period under review include:

Total operating income before expected credit loss impairment charges increased by 3.1% to R6 149 million (2017: R5 965 million). The components 
of operating income are analysed further below:

- Net interest income increased by 9.7% to R4 019 million (2017: R3 663 million) supported by higher net margins and continued activity from our 
  private client base
- Net fee and commission income decreased 0.7% to R1 076 million (2017: R1 084 million) as a result of lower investment banking and corporate 
  client activity levels
- Investment income amounted to R253 million (2017: R597 million) impacted by a weaker performance from the listed and unlisted investment portfolios
- Share of post taxation profit of associates of R369 million (2017: R382 million) primarily reflects earnings in relation to the group's investment 
  in the IEP Group
- Total trading income increased significantly amounting to R431 million (2017: R238 million), reflecting translation gains on foreign currency equity 
  investments (partially offsetting the related weaker investment income performance).

Expected credit loss (ECL) impairment charges amounted to R376 million (2017: R373 million under the IAS 39 incurred loss model), however, the 
credit loss ratio remained at the lower end of its long term average trend at 0.29% (2017: 0.31%). Stage 3 assets (net of ECL impairment charges) 
as a percentage of net core loans subject to ECL was 0.8% (1 April 2018: 0.7%).

The ratio of total operating costs to total operating income remained at 52.3%, reflecting cost containment with operating costs up 3.1% to 
R3 217 million (2017: R3 121 million).

As a result of the foregoing factors profit before taxation and acquired intangibles increased by 3.4% to R2 556 million (2017: R2 471 million). 
Profit after taxation decreased by 7.7% to R2 132 million (2017: R2 309 million) impacted by a higher tax charge off a low base in the prior period.

Basis of preparation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard, (IAS) 34 Interim 
Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Pronouncements as issued by 
Financial Reporting Standards Council and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the results for the six months ended 30 September 2018 are consistent with those adopted in the 
financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2018 except as noted below.

On 1 April 2018 the group adopted IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' which replaced IAS 39 and sets out the new requirements for the recognition and 
measurement of financial instruments. These requirements focus primarily on the classification and measurement of financial instruments and measurement 
of impairment losses based on an expected credit loss (ECL) model as opposed to an incurred loss methodology under IAS 39. Disclosure related to the 
initial application and the impact of the transition from IAS 39 to IFRS 9 were included in the group's transition disclosures published on 15 June 2018 
which can be accessed via the Investec website at www.investec.com.

Additionally, on 1 April 2018 the group adopted IFRS 15 'Revenue from contracts with customers' which replaced IAS 18 'Revenue'. IFRS 15 provides a 
principles-based approach for revenue recognition and introduces the concept of recognising revenue for obligations as they are satisfied. It applies 
to all contracts with customers except leases, financial instruments and insurance contracts. The group's measurement and recognition principles were 
aligned to the new standard and hence there has been no material impact on measurement and recognition principles or on disclosure requirements from 
the adoption of IFRS 15.

The financial results have been prepared under the supervision of Nishlan Samujh, the Group Chief Financial Officer. The interim financial statements 
for the six months ended 30 September 2018 will be posted to stakeholders on 30 November 2018. These interim financial statements will be available 
on the group's website at the same date.

Review conclusion
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended 30 September 2018 have been reviewed by KPMG Inc. and Ernst & Young Inc., 
who expressed an unmodified review conclusion. A copy of the auditors' review report is available for inspection at the company's registered office 
together with the financial statements identified in the auditors' report.

The auditors' report does not necessarily report on all of the information contained in these financial results. Shareholders are therefore advised 
that in order to obtain a full understanding of the nature of the auditors' engagement, they should obtain a copy of the auditors' report together 
with the accompanying financial information from the issuer's registered office.

Financial instruments carried at fair value

The table below analyses recurring fair value measurements for financial
assets and financial liabilities.

These fair value measurements are categorised into different levels in the fair
value hierarchy based on the inputs to the valuation technique used. The
different levels are identified as follows:

Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or
          liabilities

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are
          observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or
          indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)

Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable
          market data (unobservable inputs).
                                                                                                          Fair value category

* The EBITDA has been stressed on an investment-by-investment basis in order to obtain favourable and unfavourable valuations.
** The valuation sensitivity for certain equity investments and fair value loans have been assessed by adjusting various inputs such as expected 
   cash flows, discount rates, earnings multiples rather than a single input. It is deemed appropriate to reflect the outcome on a portfolio basis 
  for the purpose of this analysis as the sensitivity of the investment cannot be determined through the adjustment of a single input.

In determining the value of level 3 financial instruments, the following are principal inputs that can require judgement:

Price earnings multiple
The price earnings ratio is an equity valuation multiple. It is a key driver in the valuation of unlisted investments.

EBITDA
The company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation. This is the main input into a price earnings multiple valuation method.

Precious and industrial metals
The price of property and precious and industrial metals is a key driver of future cash flows on these investments.

Cash flows
Cash flows relate to the future cash flows which can be expected from the instrument and requires judgement.
