Capital Base And Capital Management |
Information Whether Entity Complied with Any Externally Imposed Capital Requirement | Capital base and capital management Capital base As of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, equity is calculated in accordance with current regulation on minimum capital base requirements for Spanish credit institutions –both as individual entities and as consolidated group– and how to calculate them, as well as the various internal capital adequacy assessment processes they should have in place and the information they should disclose to the market. The mini mum capital base requirements established by the current regulation are calculated according to the Group’s exposure to credit and dilution risk, counterparty and liquidity risk relating to the trading portfolio, exchange-rate risk and operational risk. In addition, the Group must fulfill the risk concentration limits established in said regulation and the internal corporate governance obligations. As a result of the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP) carried out by the European Central Bank (ECB), BBVA has received a communication from the ECB requiring BBVA to maintain, effective from the 1st of January 2018, a (i) CET1 phased-in capital of 8.438% at a consolidated level and 7.875% at an individual level; and (ii) a phased-in total capital ra tio of 11.938% at the consolidated level and 11.375% at the individual level. This total consolidated capital ratio of 11.938% includes: i) the minimum CET1 capital ratio required under Pillar 1 (4.5%); ii) Pillar 1 Additional Tier 1 capital requirements (1.5%); iii) Pillar 1 Tier 2 capital requirements (2%); iv) Pillar 2 CET1 capital requirements (1.5%); v) the capital conservation buffer (CCB) (1.875% CET1 phased-in) and vi) the Other Systemic Important Institution buffer (OSII) (0.563% CET1 phased-in). S ince BBVA has been excluded from the list of global systemically important financial institutions in 2017 (which is updated every year by the Financial Stability Board (FSB)), as of January 1, 2018, the G-SIB buffer will not apply to BBVA in 2018, (notwith standing the possibility that the FSB or the supervisor may include BBVA on it in the future). However, the supervisor has informed BBVA that it is included on the list of other systemically important financial institutions, and a D-SIB buffer of 0.75% of the fully-loaded ratio applies at the consolidated level. It will be implemented gradually from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2019. The Group’s bank capital in accordance with the aforementioned applicable regulation, considering entities scope required by the above regulation, as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, is shown below

Regarding TIER2, BBVA, S.A. issued subordinated debts with a As of December 31, 2017, the phased-in Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) stood at 11.7%, accounting a decrease with respect to December 2016 of 4 9 basis points. The negative effect on the minority interests and deductions due to the regulatory phase-in calendar of 80% in 2017 compared to 60% in 2016 has an impact of -56 basis points which is compensated by the organic generation of capital leaning against the recurrence of the results, net of dividends paid and remunerations. It should be noted that CET1 ratio was a ffected by corporate transactions carried out during 2017, in particular the acquisition of an additional 9.95% stake in Garanti and the sale of 1.7% in CNCB. Both transactions had a combined negative impact on the ratio of -13 basis points (see Note 3). A dditionally, BBVA Group has registered a negative charge in the income statements of 2017 up to €1,123 million due to the unrealized losses from its shares in Telefonica. However, this impact does not affect the equity or the capital ratio since these unre alized losses were already accounted for (see Note 12.4). During 2017 BBVA Group continued to strengthen its capital position with the issuance of new perpetual securities eventually convertible into shares, classified as additional TIER1 equity instrument s (contingent convertible) amounting to €500 million and $1,000 million (the latter in the American market, with the prospectus registered at the Securities and Exchange Commission and not yet included in the Group’s TIER1 capital as of December 31, 2017). Regarding TIER2. BBVA. S.A. issued subordinated debts with a total amount of €1,500 million; and Garanti issued a subordinated debt of $750 million. Finally, the total phased-in capital ratio stood at 15.5% reflecting the effects discussed above. These levels are above the requirements established by the ECB in its SREP letter and the systemic buffers applicable to BBVA Group for the CET1 ratio in 2017 (11.125%). Risk-weighted assets decreased approximately by 7% compared to December 31, 2016, mainly exp lained by the impact of the general depreciation of certain local currencies and the efficient management and allocation of capital in line with the strategic objectives of the Group.

(2) C orrespond to intragroup adjustments and other consolidation adjustments Capital management Capital management in the BBVA Group has a t wofold aim: Maintain a level of capitalization according to the business objectives in all countries in which it operate s and, simultaneously, Maximize the return on shareholders’ funds through the efficient allocation of capital to the different units, a good management of the balance sheet and appropriate use of the various instruments forming the basis of the Group’s equ ity: shares, preferred securities and subordinate debt. This capital management is carried out determining the capital base and the solvency ratios established by the prudential and minimum capital requirements also have to be met for the entities subject to prudential supervision in each country. The current regulation allows each entity to apply its own internal ratings-based (IRB) approach to risk assessment and capital management, subject to Bank of Spain approval. The BBVA Group carries out an integrat ed management of these risks in accordance with its internal policies and its internal capital estimation model has received the Bank of Spain’s approval for certain portfolios (see Note 7)
