It gives us great pleasure to introduce the 2020 Annual Report of
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is a regional financial institution
headquartered in Gifu Prefecture, approximately the center of Japan.
Our domestic network of 155 branches and offices is centered
in Gifu, Aichi, Mie, and Shiga Prefectures.
Since the Company was founded in March 1896, it has been
guided by its management vision of always being respected and
trusted by the local community. We have advanced in step with our
region, always aiming to earn and maintain the unshakable trust of
our customers, shareholders, financial markets, our employees and
members of regional community. This history has led to the solid
reputation we now enjoy from the people in our home region, and
to our being named an officially designated financial institution by
Gifu Prefecture in 2015.
Adopting the standpoint of our customers, all members
of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank and its 10 consolidated subsidiaries and
affiliates—in addition to deliver more convenient products and
services, collectively comprising the Ogaki Kyoritsu Group—will
work together to help revitalize the regional economy.

The policy that lies at the heart of the business activities of the
Company is to always view its products and services from the
customer’s perspective.
For many decades, Japanese banks had been protected by a
web of regulations often described as the convoy system. Under
this protection, the banks had cultivated no sense of competition,
let alone a willingness to approach the issue of improving customer
convenience.
In the 1990s, a wave of financial deregulation swept across
Japan, heralding a new era in which banks could leave the
confines of the convoy system and compete with each other by
implementing their own ideas. In that context, we that the most
urgent task for all directors and employees is to realize that a bank
is no longer a privileged institution but a company in the service
sector, which must compete by providing the most attractive and
convenient services.
Since adopting this policy, Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has consistently
maintained a customer-first approach and tackled the challenges
that followed the deregulation of the banking sector, so that it
could boost customer convenience. Some of our key initiatives are
shown below.

During the fiscal year under review, deposits increased ¥97 billion
year on year to ¥5,182 billion (US$ 47,615 million) mainly due to
accounts held by individuals.
The year-end balance of loans and bills discounted increased
¥65 billion year on year to ¥4,178 billion (US$ 38,396 million) as a
result of strong sales of personal housing loans, etc.
In the fiscal year under review, total income (operating income
plus extraordinary income) amounted to ¥115,303 million (US$
1,059,478 thousand), a decrease of ¥2,190 million year on year.
This was mainly due to a decrease in interest income, etc.
Total expenses (operating expenses plus extraordinary expenses)
came to ¥105,510 million (US$ 969,493 thousand), a decrease of
¥1,432 million year on year. This was primarily due to a decrease
in other operating expenses.
As a result of these and other factors, income before income
taxes for the year totaled ¥9,792 million(US$ 89,975 thousand),
while net income attributable to owners of the parent amounted
to ¥5,498 million (US$ 50,519 thousand).

In June 2018, the Company received a regional revitalization minister’s prize at the second annual Nihon Service Awards, the first awards program in Japan that recognizes initiatives for providing outstanding services. The award recognized the Company’s contribution to regional revitalization through a variety of user-friendly services, including ATMs that operate 365 days a year, drive-through branches, and services integrating biometric palm vein identification.
The Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank was ranked as the No. 3 bank nationally and top regional financial institution in Japan by the U.S. business magazine Forbes in its “The World’s Best Banks 2020” list published this year. The rankings are based on a customer satisfaction survey of more than 65,000 customers in 23 countries, covering items such as reliability and customer service.

The balance of nonperforming loans subject to mandatory disclosure under the Financial Revitalization Law decreased by ¥6.3 billion from the previous reporting term, to ¥56.1 billion.
The ratio of such loans to total loans declined by 0.18 of a percentage point from the previous reporting term, to 1.31%, as a result of growth in the volume of the loan balance.
The majority of these nonperforming loans are covered by reserves for possible loan losses or by collateral or guarantees. Consequently, the coverage ratio (coverage of total bad debt) was 78.63% (¥44.1 billion).
Risk-managed loans under the stipulations of the Banking Law amounted to ¥55.4 billion.
Hitherto, in addition to accumulating profits as retained earnings, the Company has endeavored to build up its regulatory capital through financing for capital expansion, in order to create the sort of sound financial position required of a regional financial institution.
Regulatory capital as of the reporting term-end increased from the previous reporting term-end to ¥246.3 billion. However, risk assets increased reflecting a major increase in the loan balance. As a result, the capital adequacy ratio according to the BIS-based domestic standards decreased by 0.10 of a percentage point, to 8.16%.

The Company has drawn up a set of basic policies regarding the
creation of an internal control system, and the management
is working to enhance the effective functioning of the system,
particularly with respect to compliance and risk management.
We are also working to construct a system that will ensure the
adequacy of the Group’s internal controls on financial reporting
under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.
The Board of Directors of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank meets once
a month in principle to make decisions on important
matters and operational execution regarding the Company’s
management. In addition, they periodically report on the
execution of operations and the risk status to the Board.
The Company also adopted a delegation-based Corporate
Officer system in order to revitalize the Board of Directors, speed up
decision-making and enhance the business execution function by
separating management’s decision-making and supervision from
business execution.
The Company ensures that operations are audited by its
management by requiring its corporate auditors to attend meetings
of the Board of Directors. To prevent complacency and to clarify
its management responsibilities, the Company limits the term of
office for directors to one year. With these initiatives, the Company is
committed to strengthening the functions of the Board of Directors.
The corporate auditors of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank hold meetings,
in principle every month, to discuss, determine and report on
important matters relating to audits, based on audit policies and
audit plans resolved by the Board of Corporate Auditors.
The Executive Committee consists of the chairman, president
and managing director of the Company. The committee discusses
important management matters, and controls and manages
the Company’s operations in general. In addition to Executive
Committee members, full-time corporate auditors attend
committee meetings.
As an advisory body to the Board of Directors, the Management
Advisory Committee submits proposals concerning the nomination
and remuneration of directors. The committee is comprised of the
full-time directors, external directors, and external auditors.
The Compliance Committee, chaired by the president of the
Company, holds regular meetings twice a year in addition to ad hoc
meetings as deemed necessary, and sets out the Company’s policies
on legal compliance. A Compliance Manual—detailing the procedures
to be followed to ensure compliance—is distributed to all executives
and regular employees of the Company, and compliance study
sessions are held for each separate employee rank. In this and other
ways, the management of the Company is actively working to foster a
corporate culture grounded in the spirit of compliance and a thorough
understanding of the laws applicable to the banking business.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank and its Group companies are pursuing the following as a means toward the ultimate objective: To always be respected
and trusted by the local community.
• Seeking to achieve swift decision-making at the management level, as well as overall management efficiency
• Realizing transparent management through substantial disclosure of corporate information
• Demonstrating the sincerity of the Group by practicing compliance and making contributions to the communities in our home region
These are the basic policies that we plan to follow in enhancing our corporate governance.

OKB Friends activity for club activity support plan at Special Needs School
The basic mission of a regional financial institution is to contribute to the
growth and healthy development of its regional community.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank launched its Social Contributions Committee in 1996.
This panel revised its name to the OKB Social Contribution Club in April 2016.
While meeting the true needs of regions in cooperation with local
communities, the club actively carries out activities that contribute to society.

The management of Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank recognizes the importance
of the public role played by banks, and the necessity of fulfilling
corporate social responsibilities. The establishment of an effective
compliance system is the vital first step that a bank must take to earn
the trust of its customers and shareholders, and for this reason we are
working to strengthen legal compliance within Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank.
The organizational structure of the Company’s compliance
system consists, first of all, of a Compliance Office within the
Management Administration Division, which serves as the central
supervisory unit for compliance-related matters. In addition, an
officer responsible for compliance is designated within each
division of the Company and at each branch office. By means of
constant liaison and collaboration between these officers and the
Compliance Office, we are able to operate a unified system for the
monitoring of compliance, covering both the Company’s head
office and all branch offices.
Additionally, the Compliance Committee (chaired by the president)
works to enhance the Company’s practice of compliance, and is
responsible for drawing up and revising the Company’s Compliance
Manual and Compliance Program, and for raising awareness of
compliance issues among the Company’s directors and employees.
The Compliance Manual, which is distributed to all directors
and employees, specifies the procedures to be followed to ensure
the practice of legal compliance. By overseeing the day-to-day
practice of compliance, the management of the Company is
working to build a compliance-focused corporate culture. Staff
education in the principles of compliance and specific banking-
related laws is also provided by means of separate study courses for
the different ranks in the Company’s hierarchy, as part of the
Company’s rigorous approach to ensuring legal compliance.
Inter-industry Training SystemIn 1998, we started an inter-industry training system that allows
young bankers to experience working in other industries and to
look beyond the boundaries of banking.
Participants train in a variety of industries, including mass
media and manufacturing. Entry into the training program is
by open application, and many young bankers enthusiastically
apply. Those who are chosen spend about a year in their second
workplace, where they consider the real meaning of service and
how banks should act as companies within the service sector. Later,
they provide feedback to the Company.
Convenience Plaza Handa is our representative branch
designed from the customer’s point of view. The idea came
from a banker who took inter-industry training as the manager
of a convenience store and then modeled a bank branch on a
convenience store. Also, a banker who did inter-industry training at
a TV station used his experience to plan, shoot, and edit a currently
airing TV commercial for Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank as well as promotional
videos shown in our branches.
Our inter-industry training system promotes flexible thinking
that is not limited by bank boundaries and that drives us to provide
services from the customer’s point of view.

Credit Risk ManagementCredit risk refers to the risk of a reduction or elimination of
asset value, and the resulting loss, owing to factors such as the
aggravation of the financial position of borrowers.
The Company carries out rigorous credit screening on an individual
loan basis prior to the extension of each loan, based on its Credit Risk
Management Regulations, and follows this up with close monitoring of
repayment. We also manage our loan portfolio as a whole. Through this
two-pronged approach, we are able to maintain the soundness of the
Company’s loan assets.
Maintaining its objective and independent status, the Loan
& Credit Supervision Division applies strict criteria to individual
loans in both the credit screening and post-loan management
phases to ensure that the loans contribute to the public good, have
reasonable prospects of repayment, the loans are profitable, and
borrowers have a sufficient degree of future growth potential.
In the management of the Company’s loan asset portfolio as a
whole, the Company conducts credit rating and self-assessments to
ensure that there is no undue concentration of loans in particular
industries, in particular corporate borrower sizes, or particular
geographic areas. The aim of these regular checks is to disperse risk
and create a well-balanced asset portfolio.
Market Risk ManagementMarket risk refers to the risk of a downward adjustment in the
value of the Bank’s assets (including off-balance-sheet assets)
as a result of fluctuations in market factors, including interest
rates, currency exchange rates and share prices, and the risk of a
downward adjustment in the value of the Bank’s assets as a result
of fluctuations in income generated by assets and liabilities. This
risk category is principally subdivided into interest rate risk, price
fluctuation risk, and exchange rate risk.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has drawn up a set of Market Risk
Management Regulations. The Company controls market risk
adequately through the administration of its credit limits. In
addition, the Company has established an organization that allows
controls to function by separating the market risk management
division (middle office) and the office work management division
(back office) from the market division (front office).
Liquidity Risk ManagementLiquidity risk refers to the possibility that the Company may not be
able to secure sufficient funds from its normal sources for necessary
operations, due to a mismatched term between fund procurement
and investment, or the occurrence of a contingent withdrawal of
deposits (known as funding risk). This may result in the Company
being forced to take funds at considerably higher interest rates
than normal, thus causing the Company to suffer a loss. Liquidity
risk also refers to the possibility that the Company may not be able
to engage in market transactions, due to factors such as market
turmoil (known as market liquidity risk). This may result in the
Company being forced to carry out transactions at much more
disadvantageous prices than normal, generating a loss.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has drawn up a set of Liquidity Risk
Management Regulations. The Company is applying the rules so
that it manages its funds in a conservative way. To prepare for any
contingency, the Company has also adopted measures to deal with
a liquidity crisis, and has established an organization that allows it to
make an immediate response.
The ALM CommitteeAt meetings of the ALM Committee held each month, policies on
securities management, funding and other matters are discussed
and adopted to improve profitability by keeping market risk,
liquidity risk and credit risk within their allowable ranges.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is committed to managing its risks properly, by keeping them in balance with income. The Company has developed and
adopted appropriate and effective risk management systems, based on risk details and scale. These systems comply with the Company’s Risk
Management Policies, which set out handling policies and organizational structures relating to risk management, and other risk management
regulations, management procedures and risk management regulations are stipulated for each risk category.
Specifically, the Company has established committees dedicated to risk management, including the ALM Committee. The Company has
also set up sections that manage risks in an integrated manner, as well as risk control and supervisory sections in each category. In doing so,
the Company has built a system through which the risk status is reported regularly and as required from the risk management sections to
the management directly. Operational audits are also carried out by the Audit Division, which is organizationally independent of the units of
the Company that it audits, to confirm the appropriateness and validity of risk management.
Progress in Perfecting the Risk Management System
Risk Management

Operational Risk Management Operational risk refers to the risk of loss resulting from bank business
processes, the activities of executives and employees, or systems
being inappropriate, as well as from external events.
The Company classifies risks into the categories of (1) administrative
risk, (2) system risk, (3) legal risk, (4) human resource risk, (5) tangible
asset risk, and (6) reputational risk, and addresses risk management
in accordance with the Operational Risk Management Regulations.
Furthermore, at the Operational Risk Management Committee
that is held on a regular basis, efforts are made to improve the
effectiveness of risk management through discussions
aimed at understanding the status of operational risks and
possible countermeasures.
The management systems for the administrative risk and system
risk, which are key proponents of operational risk, are as follows.
Administrative Risk Management Administrative risk refers to the risk of losses, as a result of
negligence on the part of executives and regular employees in
the performance of clerical duties, accidents they cause, or acts
of dishonesty they commit.
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is working to strengthen the
administrative risk management organization in compliance with
its Administrative Risk Management Regulations in order to
minimize the materialization of foreseeable categories of
administrative risk and thereby enable the Company to cope with
the diversification of the banking business and the trend toward
an increasing number of transactions.
Specifically, we are collecting and analyzing information on
administrative errors so that we can put in place measures to prevent
any recurrence and improve our administrative processes. We have
also set up administrative work support teams to help the branch
offices maintain an adequately high level of accuracy in
administrative work. Members of the team visit the branches to
supervise work procedures directly, and the team also conducts training
courses to raise the skill levels of branch staff. In addition, regular
training courses are conducted for different rankings of employees by
division to raise the administrative skill levels of the whole Bank.
System Risk ManagementSystem risk refers to the risk of the Company suffering monetary
loss as a result of the crashing or serious malfunctioning of one or
more of the Company’s computer systems, or the unauthorized
use of a computer system.
In view of the vital importance to a bank of the information
in its possession and of the computer systems it employs,
Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank has taken appropriate steps to protect the
information in its safekeeping and to ensure the secure and
continued operation of its computer systems.
Specifically, the Company has instituted computer system risk
management, and has laid down the System Risk Management
Regulations, which set out policies regarding the management
of the computer systems themselves and the data (information)
contained within them. The Company is exerting its full efforts to
assure the confidentiality of information in its possession through
the application of the Regulations.
Information Asset ManagementThe term “information assets” as used here refers both to
information itself and to the computer systems.In the event that
confidential information is leaked to persons outside the
Company, or improper use is made of the Company’s information
assets, the Company could suffer considerable damage.
To ensure that Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank conducts its banking
business in an ethically correct manner, we have published our
Security Policy, which clarifies the principles that the Company
applies to the protection of information assets, in addition to the
Customer Information Management Regulations, which set out in
detail the procedures to be followed for the proper protection and
use of the Company’s customer information assets.
