Detailed information in relation to the Bank’s financial performance, including information on provisioning, is published semi-annually in the Bank’s interim report and annual report and accounts. The Bank’s 2011 Annual Report, pages 169-173, provides detailed disclosure on the Bank’s residential mortgage portfolio. More recent information can be found in the Bank’s Interim Report 2012, page 72. It is Bank policy not to publish any additional confidential commercially sensitive financial information which could potentially have a detrimental impact on asset recovery.
