Results for the second quarter of 2024 were affected by the following items of note aggregating to a positive impact of $0.04 per share:
 
$13 million ($10 million
after-tax)
charge related to the special assessment imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on U.S. depository institutions, which impacted CIBC Bank USA (U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management);
 
$51 million recovery to income tax that will be eliminated by the substantive enactment of a Federal tax proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks
(6)
($71 million tax equivalent basis (TEB) revenue and tax expense in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services with offsets in Corporate and Other; $51 million tax recovery in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services); and
 
$14 million ($10 million
after-tax)
amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.
Our CET1 ratio
(5)
was 13.1% at April 30, 2024, compared with 13.0% at the end of the prior quarter. CIBC’s leverage ratio
(5)
and liquidity coverage ratio
(5)
at April 30, 2024 were 4.3% and 129%, respectively.
In the second quarter, the steady execution of our client-focused strategy across our well-diversified North American platform continued to deliver solid results and create value for our stakeholders. Our team’s ability to attract and deepen client relationships across our bank, including in high growth segments and markets is supporting our momentum. Combined with expense discipline, our robust capital position and disciplined risk management, as well as our ongoing strategic investments, we remain well positioned to navigate the current operating environment and position our bank for the future.
Core business performance
Canadian Personal and Business Banking
reported net income of $649 million for the second quarter, up $11 million or 2% from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue driven by higher net interest margin, volume growth and the impact of an additional day in the current quarter, partially offset by a higher provision for credit losses and higher expenses. Adjusted
pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings
(2)
were $1,163 million, up $149 million from the second quarter a year ago, as higher revenue was partially offset by higher adjusted
(2)
non-interest
expenses mainly due to higher spending on strategic initiatives, and higher employee-related and performance-based compensation.
 
 
(1)
Certain comparative amounts have been restated to reflect the adoption of IFRS 17 in the first quarter of 2024. See Note 1 to the interim consolidated financial statements for additional details.
(2)
This measure is a
non-GAAP
measure. For additional information, see the
“Non-GAAP
measures” section, including the quantitative reconciliations of reported GAAP measures to: adjusted
non-interest
expenses and adjusted net income on pages 9 to 13; and adjusted
pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings on page 14.
(3)
For additional information on the composition, see the “Glossary” section.
(4)
Average balances are calculated as a weighted average of daily closing balances.
(5)
Our capital ratios are calculated pursuant to the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institution’s (OSFI’s) Capital Adequacy Requirements (CAR) Guideline and the leverage ratio is calculated pursuant to OSFI’s Leverage Requirements Guideline, all of which are based on the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) standards. The Basel III reforms related to market risk and credit valuation adjustments were implemented as of November 1, 2023. For additional information, see the “Capital management” and “Liquidity risk” sections.
(6)
This item of note reports the impact on consolidated income tax expense that will be subject to an adjustment to our reported results in the third quarter of 2024 because the Federal tax proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks was substantively enacted on May 28, 2024. The corresponding impact on TEB in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services and Corporate and Other is also included in this item of note with no impact on the consolidated item of note.

Table of Contents
Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management
reported net income of $456 million for the second quarter, up $4 million or 1% from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher expenses. The increase in revenue was due to higher fee-based revenue from market appreciation and higher commission revenue from increased client activity in wealth management. Commercial banking revenue was lower compared to the prior year due to lower deposit margins, partially offset by the impact of an additional day in the current quarter. The lower non-interest income experienced in commercial banking was a result of the reduction in the issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances ahead of the expected cessation of Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (CDOR) and was largely offset by higher net interest income from a corresponding increase in loans. Expenses increased primarily due to higher performance-based compensation. Adjusted pre-provision, pre-tax earnings
(1)
were $664 million, up $1 million from the second quarter a year ago, as higher revenue in wealth management was largely offset by lower revenue in commercial banking.
U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management
reported net income of $93 million (US$69 million) for the second quarter, up $38 million (US$29 million or 73%) from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to a lower provision for credit losses and higher revenue, partially offset by higher expenses. Adjusted
pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings
(1)
were $291 million (US$215 million), down $21 million (US$14 million) from the second quarter a year ago, as higher revenue was more than offset by higher expenses. Higher non-interest income was primarily due to market appreciation. Non-interest expenses increased mainly due to higher spending on strategic initiatives and higher performance-based and employee-related compensation.
Capital Market
s and Direct Financial Services
reported net income of $560 million for the second quarter, up $63 million or 13% from the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher revenue from our global markets, investment banking and direct financial services businesses, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses. Expenses were up due to higher spending on strategic initiatives and higher performance-based and employee-related compensation. Adjusted
pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings
(1)
were up $13 million or 2% from the second quarter a year ago due to higher revenue, largely offset by higher expenses.

This measure is a
non-GAAP
measure. For additional information and a reconciliation of reported results to adjusted results, where applicable, see the
“Non-GAAP
measures” section.
Making a difference in our communities
At CIBC, we believe there should be no limits to ambition. We invest our time and resources to remove barriers to ambitions and demonstrate that when we come together, positive change happens that helps our communities thrive. This quarter:
 
CIBC and the University of Waterloo announced that CIBC has committed $500,000 to improve access to education for Black undergraduate students. The CIBC Inclusion Award for Black Students is open to students entering their first year of a full-time degree program, with preference being given to students enrolled in a Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) program.
 
CIBC invested $300,000 to continue proudly sponsoring HackerGal as their Lead Partner for Inclusion and Community Engagement in support of their mission to inspire Canadian girls and gender-diverse learners to code, create and become the technology leaders of tomorrow by ensuring they have the education, community and confidence to succeed in STEM.
 
CIBC Foundation and AlloProf announced the CIBC Foundation’s donation of $100,000 to support the development and dissemination of professional services and digital academic support resources, making them available free of charge to all Quebec students and their parents.

A NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:
From time to time, we make written or oral forward-looking statements within the meaning of certain securities laws, including in this report, in other filings with Canadian securities regulators or the SEC and in other communications. All such statements are made pursuant to the “safe harbour” provisions of, and are intended to be forward-looking statements under applicable Canadian and U.S. securities legislation, including the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements made in the “Financial performance overview – Economic outlook”, “Financial performance overview – Significant events”, “Financial performance overview – Financial results review”, “Financial performance overview – Review of quarterly financial information”, “Financial condition – Capital management”, “Management of risk – Risk overview”, “Management of risk – Top and emerging risks”, “Management of risk – Credit risk”, “Management of risk – Market risk”, “Management of risk – Liquidity risk”, “Accounting and control matters – Critical accounting policies and estimates”, and “Accounting and control matters – Other regulatory developments” sections of this report and other statements about our operations, business lines, financial condition, risk management, priorities, targets and sustainability commitments (including with respect to
net-zero
emissions and our environmental, social and governance (ESG) related activities), ongoing objectives, strategies, the regulatory environment in which we operate and outlook for calendar year 2024 and subsequent periods. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “target”, “predict”, “commit”, “ambition”, “goal”, “strive”, “project”, “objective” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will”, “may”, “should”, “would” and “could”. By their nature, these statements require us to make assumptions, including the economic assumptions set out in the “Financial performance overview – Economic outlook” section of this report, and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific. Given the continuing impact of high inflation, rising interest rates, ongoing adverse developments in the U.S. banking sector which adds pressure on liquidity and funding conditions for the financial industry, the impact of hybrid work arrangements and higher interest rates on the U.S. real estate sector, potential recession and the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East on the global economy, financial markets, and our business, results of operations, reputation and financial condition, there is inherently more uncertainty associated with our assumptions as compared to prior periods. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, affect our operations, performance and results, and could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. These factors include: inflationary pressures; global supply-chain disruptions; geopolitical risk, including from the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, the occurrence, continuance or intensification of public health emergencies, such as the impact of post-pandemic hybrid work arrangements, and any related government policies and actions; credit, market, liquidity, strategic, insurance, operational, reputation, conduct and legal, regulatory and environmental risk; currency value and interest rate fluctuations, including as a result of market and oil price volatility; the effectiveness and adequacy of our risk management and valuation models and processes; legislative or regulatory developments in the jurisdictions where we operate, including the Organisation for Economic
Co-operation
and Development Common Reporting Standard, and regulatory reforms in the United Kingdom and Europe, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s global standards for capital and liquidity reform, and those relating to bank recapitalization legislation and the payments system in Canada; amendments to, and interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions, and interest rate and liquidity regulatory guidance; exposure to, and the resolution of, significant litigation or regulatory matters, our ability to successfully appeal adverse outcomes of such matters and the timing, determination and recovery of amounts related to such matters; the effect of changes to accounting standards, rules and interpretations; changes in our estimates of reserves and allowances; changes in tax laws; changes to our credit ratings; political conditions and developments, including changes relating to economic or trade matters; the possible effect on our business of international conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East, and terrorism; natural disasters, disruptions to public infrastructure and other catastrophic events; reliance on third parties to provide components of our business infrastructure; potential disruptions to our information technology systems and services; increasing cyber security risks which may include theft or disclosure of assets, unauthorized access to sensitive information, or operational disruption; social media risk; losses incurred as a result of internal or external fraud; anti-money laundering; the accuracy and completeness of information provided to us concerning clients and counterparties; the failure of third parties to comply with their obligations to us and our affiliates or associates; intensifying competition from established competitors and new entrants in the financial services industry including through internet and mobile banking; technological change including the use of data and artificial intelligence in our business; global capital market activity; changes in monetary and economic policy; general business and economic conditions worldwide, as well as in Canada, the U.S. and other countries where we have operations, including increasing Canadian household debt levels and global credit risks; climate change and other ESG related risks including our ability to implement various sustainability-related initiatives internally and with our clients under expected time frames and our ability to scale our sustainable finance products and services; our success in developing and introducing new products and services, expanding existing distribution channels, developing new distribution channels and realizing increased revenue from these channels; changes in client spending and saving habits; our ability to attract and retain key employees and executives; our ability to successfully execute our strategies and complete and integrate acquisitions and joint ventures; the risk that expected benefits of an acquisition, merger or divestiture will not be realized within the expected time frame or at all; and our ability to anticipate and manage the risks associated with these factors. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of our forward-looking statements. These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements contained in this report represent the views of management only as of the date hereof and are presented for the purpose of assisting our shareholders and financial analysts in understanding our financial position, objectives and priorities and anticipated financial performance as at and for the periods ended on the dates presented, and may not be appropriate for other purposes. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that is contained in this report or in other communications except as required by law.

External reporting changes
The following external reporting changes were made in the first quarter of 2024. Prior period amounts were restated accordingly.
Adoption of IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” (IFRS 17)
We adopted IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” (IFRS 17), commencing November 1, 2023, which replaced IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts” (IFRS 4). The adoption of IFRS 17 required us to restate the comparative year ended October 31, 2023. Insurance results are now presented in Income from insurance activities, net under
Non-interest
income, which replaced Insurance fees, net of claims in the income statement. For further details on the adoption of IFRS 17, see Note 1 to the interim consolidated financial statements. Regulatory capital measures for prior periods have not been restated.
Financial performance overview
Economic outlook
Tight monetary policy is expected to result in a continuation of below-normal global growth for the remainder of 2024. The United Kingdom (U.K.) and some eurozone countries will struggle to emerge from recessions that commenced in the second half of 2023 after high interest rates hit a region already vulnerable due to the spillover from the war in Ukraine. China’s economy has benefitted from a pick-up in exports, but continues to see soft domestic demand. The global slowdown will result in many commodity prices at lower average levels in 2024 than what persisted earlier in this expansion, although geopolitical risks to supply could bring upward pressure in some commodities. Despite military disruptions to traffic in the Suez Canal, supply chains should continue to see further improvement from the recovery in global inventories after earlier
COVID-19
shutdowns, and from the expected easing in global demand pressures.
In Canada, the Bank of Canada is expected to maintain its 5% overnight rate until roughly
mid-year
as it awaits for more evidence that sluggish growth is leading to a further easing in inflation. Although early 2024 saw growth improve from the slow pace experienced since mid-2022, we expect a return to a slower pace through the spring and summer as high interest rates constrain spending by indebted households. Such an economic slowdown should, however, allow inflation to end this year close to the 2% target. For 2024 as a whole, we forecast growth of roughly 1%, and expect the unemployment rate to edge a bit further above 6%. However, if as we expect, overnight interest rates end the year 100 basis points lower, growth should be stronger in the final quarter of 2024 and the unemployment rate should have started to move down again from that peak.
The U.S. has been much more resilient in the face of higher interest rates so far, but diminished household savings and weak business loan demand point to a deceleration in growth over the remainder of 2024. While growth for 2024 as a whole could still be near 2.5%, a deceleration in quarterly growth is expected to see the unemployment rate climb modestly over 4% in the latter half of the year, allowing wage inflation to ease. There are still downside risks to the U.S. growth outlook tied to sluggish business lending activity. However, we expect that reduced inflation will allow the Federal Reserve to cut its target rate by 50 basis points in the latter half of the year, with room to cut more aggressively if downside risks emerge.
The soft pace of Canadian economic growth, and high interest rates in the first half of the year, will likely have broad implications across our strategic business units (SBUs) for the remainder of the year. Higher levels of unemployment and higher interest rates have resulted in a moderate deterioration in business and household credit quality. Deterioration in the credit quality of select sectors, including the U.S. office real estate market, could continue in response to worsening economic or market conditions. Deposit growth will be slow, as quantitative tightening will require bonds currently held by the central bank to be financed in the public markets, with high rates resulting in greater growth in term deposits relative to short-term deposits. While the increase in interest rates appears to have leveled off with an expectation of declines, we expect the impact on our net interest margins to be relatively stable for 2024.
For Canadian Personal Banking, mortgage growth is expected to remain soft before picking up later this year, in line with sluggish home sale volumes and little change in average house prices due to the high level of interest rates in the first half of 2024. Although year-over-year
non-mortgage
consumer credit demand will be supported by population growth, lower inflation and weaker discretionary spending will contribute to slower growth in dollar terms.
Canadian commercial, and corporate banking loan growth is expected to continue to decelerate through to
mid-2024
with softer economic growth and lower levels of residential construction, before improving in the second half of the year. In our U.S. commercial banking and wealth businesses, loan growth has slowed, consistent with industry trends, but is expected to improve later in the year in conjunction with expected interest rate reductions.
Financial markets have benefitted from expectations for central bank interest rate reductions later in the year. While we expect that softer economic conditions will impact corporate earnings, Canadian and U.S. wealth management businesses should benefit as 2024 progresses and markets look ahead to better growth in 2025.
Corporate and investment banking is expected to continue to benefit from merger and acquisition activity that continues to recover from the low levels in early 2023, while corporate bond issuance could pick up later in 2024, given that long-term rates are off their peak.
The economic outlook described above reflects numerous assumptions regarding the economic impact of high interest rates, the easing of inflationary pressures, the impact from events in the U.S. banking sector, as well as the global economic risks emanating from the war in Ukraine, conflict in the Middle East and trade frictions between China and other countries. As a result, actual experience may differ materially from expectations. The impact of geopolitical events on our risk environment, are discussed in the “Top and emerging risks” section. Changes in the level of economic uncertainty continue to impact key accounting estimates and assumptions, particularly the estimation of expected credit losses (ECL). See the “Accounting and control matters” section and Note 6 to our interim consolidated financial statements for further details.
Significant events
Sale of certain banking assets in the Caribbean
On October 31, 2023, FirstCaribbean International Bank Limited (CIBC FirstCaribbean) announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its banking assets in Curaçao and Sint Maarten. The sale of banking assets in Curaçao was completed on May 24, 2024 upon the satisfaction of the closing conditions, and was not material. The Sint Maarten transaction is subject to closing conditions, and is expected to be finalized in the first quarter of 2025. The impact upon closing is not expected to be material.

Net interest income was up $94 million or 3% from the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher net interest margin in our non-trading businesses, volume growth across most of our businesses and the impact of an additional day in the current quarter, partially offset by lower trading net interest income.
Net interest income was up $32 million or 1% from the prior quarter, primarily due to higher trading net interest income and volume growth across most of our businesses, partially offset by the impact of fewer days in the current quarter and lower net interest margin in our non-trading businesses.
Net interest income for the six months ended April 30, 2024 was up $138 million or 2% from the same period in 2023, primarily due to higher net interest margin in our non-trading businesses and volume growth across most of our businesses, partially offset by lower trading net interest income.
Non-interest
income
(3)
Non-interest
income was up $366 million or 15% from the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher trading
non-interest
income, higher underwriting and advisory fees, higher
fee-based
revenue, higher gains from foreign exchange other than trading, and higher commissions on securities transactions.
Non-interest
income was down $89 million or 3% from the prior quarter, primarily due to lower trading non-interest income and lower credit fees, partially offset by higher investment management and custodial fees, higher underwriting and advisory fees, and higher commissions on securities transactions.
Non-interest income for the six months ended April 30, 2024 was up $614 million or 12% from the same period in 2023, primarily due to higher trading
non-interest
income, higher underwriting and advisory fees, higher investment management and custodial fees, and higher credit fees.

Adjusted measures are

measures. For additional information and a reconciliation of reported results to adjusted results, where applicable, see the
“Non-GAAP

(2)
This item of note reports the impact on consolidated income tax expense that will be subject to an adjustment to our reported results in the third quarter of 2024 because the Federal tax proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks was substantively enacted on May 28, 2024. The corresponding impact on TEB in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services and Corporate and Other is also included in this item of note with no impact on the consolidated item of note.
(3)
Trading activities include those that meet the risk definition of trading for regulatory capital and trading market risk management purposes as defined in accordance with OSFI’s CAR Guideline. Starting in the first quarter of 2024, a revised risk definition for trading was implemented resulting in a change in the classification of certain fixed income financing activities that were previously considered
non-trading
that are now classified as trading, which included the fixed income financing activities that were already included in trading activities starting in the first quarter of 2023. The revised definition was adopted as part of our implementation of the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) rules under the Basel III reforms for market risk that became effective on November 1, 2023. Trading activities and related risk management strategies can periodically shift trading income between net interest income and
non-interest
income. Therefore, we view total trading income as the most appropriate measure of trading performance.
(4)
Does not include a TEB adjustment of $71 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2024 (January 31, 2024: $68 million; April 30, 2023: $64 million) and $139 million for the six months ended April 30, 2024 (April 30, 2023: $126 million).

Provision for credit losses was $514 million, up $76 million from the same quarter last year. Provision for credit losses on performing loans was up mainly due to a provision reversal in Canadian Personal and Business Banking in the prior year quarter, partially offset by lower provisions in U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management in the current quarter. Provision for credit losses on impaired loans was up mainly due to higher provisions in U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, and Canadian Personal and Business Banking, partially offset by lower provisions in Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management.
Provision for credit losses was down $71 million from the prior quarter. Provision for credit losses on performing loans was down mainly due to lower provisions in Canadian Personal and Business Banking and U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, partially offset by higher provisions in Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management and Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services. Provision for credit losses on impaired loans was down due to lower impairments in Canadian Personal and Business Banking, Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management and U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management.
Provision for credit losses for the six months ended April 30, 2024 was up $366 million from the same period in 2023. Provision for credit losses on performing loans was up mainly due to a provision reversal in Canadian Personal and Business Banking in the prior year period, partially offset by lower provisions in U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management in the current period. Provision for credit losses on impaired loans was up due to higher impairments in Canadian Personal and Business Banking, and U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management. 
Non-interest
expenses
Non-interest
expenses were up $361 million or 11% from the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher performance-based and employee-related compensation, higher computer, software and office equipment expenses, and a decrease in legal provisions, shown as an item of note in the same quarter last year.
Non-interest
expenses were up $36 million or 1% from the prior quarter, primarily due to higher employee-related and performance-based compensation, higher computer, software and office equipment expenses, and higher professional fees, partially offset by a higher charge related to the special assessment imposed by the FDIC in the prior quarter, shown as an item of note.
Non-interest
expenses for the six months ended April 30, 2024 were down $636 million or 8% from the same period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in legal provisions in the first quarter of 2023, shown as an item of note, partially offset by higher performance-based and employee-related compensation, higher computer, software and office equipment expenses, and a charge related to the special assessment imposed by the FDIC in the current period, as noted above.
Taxes
Income tax expense was down $37 million or 8% from the same quarter last year, despite higher income, due to changes in earnings mix.
Income tax expense was down $43 million or 10% from the prior quarter, due to lower income and earnings mix.
Income tax expense for the six months ended April 30, 2024 was down $333 million or 28% from the same period in 2023, as the first quarter of 2023 included an income tax charge taken to recognize the Canada Recovery Dividend (CRD) tax and the retroactive impact of the 1.5% tax rate increase, which was shown as an item of note.
On November 28, 2023, the Canadian federal government tabled Bill
C-59
in Parliament, which includes certain tax measures from the 2023 fall economic statement and 2023 federal budget. Bill
C-59
includes the denial of the dividends received deduction in respect of Canadian shares held as
mark-to-market
property, as well as a 2% tax on certain share buy backs. The application date for these measures is January 1, 2024. Bill
C-59
was not substantively enacted as at April 30, 2024, and is therefore not reflected in the reported income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended April 30, 2024.
On May 28, 2024, Parliament completed third reading of Bill C-59. As a result, the proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks was substantively enacted as of that date and will be reflected in the reported income tax expense for the third quarter ended July 31, 2024.
On May 2, 2024, the Canadian federal government tabled Bill C-69 for first reading in Parliament. Bill C-69 includes certain provisions of the Canadian federal budget tabled on April 16, 2024, as well as a revised Global Minimum Tax Act (GMTA), which differs in part from the GMTA released by the Canadian federal government on August 4, 2023. The GMTA will implement rules in Canada for a 15% global minimum tax regime as part of Canada’s agreement to adopt the Organisation for Economic
Co-operation
and Development (OECD) Pillar Two regime for a global minimum tax. More than 135 OECD member countries have agreed to adopt the regime. Pillar Two rules are in different stages of adoption globally. Certain countries in which CIBC operates have enacted Pillar Two legislation, however, the legislation is not yet in effect in those countries. The GMTA is expected to be enacted in 2024 and with application as of CIBC’s 2025 fiscal year. CIBC is currently reviewing the latest draft of the GMTA in Bill C-69 and evaluating its impact on our global operations, which impact is not reasonably estimable at this time.
The IASB issued “International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules”, which amended IAS 12 “Income Taxes” (IAS 12), to provide temporary relief from the accounting and disclosure for deferred taxes arising from the implementation of Pillar Two Model Rules. CIBC has applied this exception to recognizing and disclosing deferred taxes related to Pillar Two income taxes. Further amendments to IAS 12 require additional disclosures during the periods where the Pillar Two legislation has been enacted or substantively enacted but is not yet in effect.

Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services revenue and income taxes are reported on a TEB with an equivalent offset in the revenue and income taxes of Corporate and Other.
Our quarterly results are modestly affected by seasonal factors. The second quarter has fewer days as compared with the other quarters, generally leading to lower earnings. The summer months (July – third quarter and August – fourth quarter) typically experience lower levels of market activity, which affects our brokerage, investment management, and capital markets activities.
Revenue
Revenue in our lending and deposit-taking businesses is generally driven by volume growth, fees related to client transaction activity and the interest rate environment. Our wealth management businesses are driven by net sales activity impacting AUA and AUM, the level of client investment activity and market conditions. Capital markets revenue is also influenced, to a large extent, by market conditions affecting client trading, underwriting and advisory activity.
Canadian Personal and Business Banking has benefitted from loan and deposit growth through the periods presented above, driven by organic client growth, and deepening relationships across our client base. The rising rate environment has contributed to slower growth in loans and deposits and improved net interest margin, through wider deposit margins, partially offset by compressed loan margins.
Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management revenue has benefitted from commercial banking volume growth, offset by market-related headwinds in wealth management. In commercial banking, revenue growth has been driven by client demand that has tempered in recent quarters and from an increase in interest rates. In wealth management, AUA and AUM growth and associated fee income have been impacted by volatility in equity markets along with the impact of macro environmental factors, which have shown signs of recovery over the first and second quarters of 2024.
U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management continues to benefit from organic client acquisition. Deposit balances decreased in the second and third quarters of 2023 which was accompanied by a shift in deposit mix due to the interest rate environment, but average balances increased in the most recent three quarters. Loans declined in the fourth quarter of 2023 and first quarter of 2024, while revolver usage and demand remains low, with a return to growth in the second quarter of 2024. Wealth Management AUA and AUM experienced market-related headwinds and market volatility in the first half of 2023, recent growth has been positively impacted by market appreciation.
Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services had lower trading revenue in the third and fourth quarters of 2022 and 2023. The first quarters of 2023 and 2024 had higher trading revenue driven by robust market conditions and strong client activity.
Corporate and Other included the impact of higher net interest margins in International banking from rising interest rates. Starting in the second quarter of 2023, funding costs increased due to interest rate volatility, which negatively impacted Corporate and Other. The negative impact lessened as the increased funding costs were passed on to the SBUs over time.

Provision for credit losses
Provision for credit losses is dependent upon the credit cycle, on the credit performance of the loan portfolios, and changes in our economic outlook. We continue to operate in an uncertain macroeconomic environment due to concerns related to higher levels of interest rates and inflation, geopolitical events and slower economic growth. There is considerable judgment involved in the estimation of expected credit losses in the current environment.
The faster than expected pace of interest rate increases, along with rising inflation, continued supply chain disruption and the increase in global geopolitical concerns, impacted our provision for credit losses on performing loans in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2022, and the third and fourth quarters of 2023. Unfavourable credit migration also impacted our provision for credit losses in all quarters in 2023 and the first and second quarters of 2024. An unfavourable change in our outlook for the U.S. real estate and construction sector contributed to an increase in provision for credit losses on performing loans in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024.
In Canadian Personal and Business Banking, provisions on impaired loans continue to trend higher as expected, due to the unfavourable macro environments for the retail portfolios and write-offs from the seasoning of the acquired Canadian Costco credit card portfolio.
In Canadian Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, fiscal 2023 and the first quarter of 2024 included higher provisions on impaired loans.
In U.S. Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, the fourth quarter of 2022, all quarters of 2023 and the first and second quarters of 2024 included higher provisions on impaired loans. The increased provision in the third and fourth quarters of 2023 and the first and second quarters of 2024 was mainly attributable to the real estate and construction sector.
In Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services, impaired loan losses have continued to remain low.
In Corporate and Other, provisions for impaired loans in International banking have remained relatively stable. The fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024 included provision reversals.
Non-interest
expenses
Non-interest
expenses have fluctuated over the period largely due to changes in employee compensation expenses, investments in strategic initiatives and movement in foreign exchange rates. The first and second quarters of 2024 included a charge related to the special assessment imposed by the FDIC, shown as an item of note. The fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 included increases in legal provisions, while the second quarter of 2023 included a decrease in legal provisions in Corporate and Other, all shown as items of note. The fourth quarter of 2022 included charges related to the consolidation of our real estate portfolio as a result of our move to our new global headquarters, shown as an item of note.
Income taxes
Income taxes vary with changes in taxable income in the jurisdictions in which the income is earned. The first quarter of 2023 included an income tax charge taken to recognize the CRD tax and the retroactive impact of the 1.5% tax rate increase, which was shown as an item of note.

Non-GAAP
measures
We use a number of financial measures to assess the performance of our business lines as described below. Some measures are calculated in accordance with GAAP (IFRS), while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP, and accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Investors may find these
non-GAAP
measures, which include
non-GAAP
financial measures and
non-GAAP
ratios as defined in National Instrument
52-112
“Non-GAAP
and Other Financial Measures Disclosure”, useful in understanding how management views underlying business performance.
Adjusted measures
Management assesses results on a reported and adjusted basis and considers both as useful measures of performance. Adjusted measures, which include adjusted total revenue, adjusted provision for credit losses, adjusted
non-interest
expenses, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted income taxes and adjusted net income, in addition to the adjusted measures noted below, remove items of note from reported results to calculate our adjusted results. Items of note include the amortization of intangible assets, and certain items of significance that arise from time to time which management believes are not reflective of underlying business performance. We believe that adjusted measures provide the reader with a better understanding of how management assesses underlying business performance and facilitates a more informed analysis of trends. While we believe that adjusted measures may facilitate comparisons between our results and those of some of our Canadian peer banks, which make similar adjustments in their public disclosure, it should be noted that there is no standardized meaning for adjusted measures under GAAP.
We also adjust our SBU results to gross up
tax-exempt
revenue on certain securities to a TEB, being the amount of fully taxable revenue, which, were it to have incurred tax at the statutory income tax rate, would yield the same
after-tax
revenue. See the “Strategic business units overview” section and Note 30 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report for further details.
Adjusted diluted EPS
We adjust our reported diluted EPS to remove the impact of items of note, net of income taxes, to calculate the adjusted EPS.
Adjusted efficiency ratio
We adjust our reported revenue and
non-interest
expenses to remove the impact of items of note. Commencing the first quarter of 2024, we no longer gross up
tax-exempt
revenue to bring it to a TEB for the application of this ratio to our consolidated results. Prior period amounts have been restated to conform with the change in presentation adopted in the first quarter of 2024.
Adjusted operating leverage
We adjust our reported revenue and
non-interest
expenses to remove the impact of items of note. Commencing the first quarter of 2024, we no longer gross up
tax-exempt
revenue to bring it to a TEB for the application of this ratio to our consolidated results. Prior period amounts have been restated to conform with the change in presentation adopted in the first quarter of 2024.
Adjusted dividend payout ratio
We adjust our reported net income attributable to common shareholders to remove the impact of items of note, net of income taxes, to calculate the adjusted dividend payout ratio.
Adjusted return on common shareholders’ equity
We adjust our reported net income attributable to common shareholders to remove the impact of items of note, net of income taxes, to calculate the adjusted return on common shareholders’ equity.
Adjusted effective tax rate
We adjust our reported income before income taxes and reported income taxes to remove the impact of items of note, to calculate the adjusted effective tax rate.
Pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings
Pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings is calculated as revenue net of
non-interest
expenses, and provides the reader with an assessment of our ability to generate earnings to cover credit losses through the credit cycle, as well as an additional basis for comparing underlying business performance between periods by excluding the impact of provision for credit losses, which involves the application of judgments and estimates related to matters that are uncertain and can vary significantly between periods. We adjust our
pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings to remove the impact of items of note to calculate the adjusted
pre-provision,
pre-tax
earnings. As discussed above, we believe that adjusted measures provide the reader with a better understanding of how management assesses underlying business performance and facilitates a more informed analysis of trends.
Allocated common equity
Common equity is allocated to the SBUs based on the estimated amount of regulatory capital required to support their businesses (as determined for the consolidated bank pursuant to OSFI’s regulatory capital requirements and internal targets). Unallocated common equity is reported in Corporate and Other. Allocating capital on this basis provides a consistent framework to evaluate the returns of each SBU commensurate with the risk assumed. In the first quarter of 2024, we increased the common equity allocated to our SBUs to 12% of common equity Tier 1 capital requirements for each SBU, reflecting an increase from 11% in 2023. As part of the adoption of the Basel III reforms, a revised approach for allocating operational risk RWA to each of the SBUs was introduced effective April 30, 2023. The new allocations are driven by the contributions of each SBU to the total 3 years of revenue and total 10 years of operational losses. This change in methodology impacted allocated common equity effective the third quarter of 2023. For additional information, see the “Risks arising from business activities” section.

Segmented return on equity
We use return on equity on a segmented basis as one of the measures for performance evaluation and resource allocation decisions. While return on equity for total CIBC provides a measure of return on common equity, return on equity on a segmented basis provides a similar metric based on allocated common equity to our SBUs. As a result, segmented return on equity is a
non-GAAP
ratio. Segmented return on equity is calculated as net income attributable to common shareholders for each SBU expressed as a percentage of average allocated common equity, which is the average of monthly allocated common equity during the period. In the first quarter of 2024, we increased the common equity allocated to our SBUs, as noted above.
The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP (reported) results to
non-GAAP
(adjusted) results on a segmented basis.

(1)
Items of note are removed from reported results to calculate adjusted results.
(2)
This item of note reports the impact on consolidated income tax expense that will be subject to an adjustment to our reported results in the third quarter of 2024 because the Federal tax proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks was substantively enacted on May 28, 2024. The corresponding impact on TEB in Capital Markets and Direct Financial Services and Corporate and Other is also included in this item of note with no impact on the consolidated item of note.
(3)
Includes the impact of rounding differences between diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS.
(4)
Adjusted to exclude the impact of items of note. Adjusted measures are
non-GAAP
measures.
(5)
CIBC total results excludes a TEB adjustment of $71 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2024 (January 31, 2024: $68 million; April 30, 2023: $64 million) and $139 million for the six months ended April 30, 2024 (April 30, 2023: $126 million).
(6)
Certain comparative amounts have been restated to reflect the adoption of IFRS 17 in the first quarter of 2024. See Note 1 to the interim consolidated financial statements for additional details.
(7)
Relates to the net legal provisions recognized in the first and second quarters of 2023.
(8)
The income tax charge is comprised of $510 million for the present value of the estimated amount of the Canada Recovery Dividend (CRD) tax of $555 million, and a charge of $35 million related to the fiscal 2022 impact of the 1.5% increase in the tax rate applied to taxable income of certain bank and insurance entities in excess of $100 million for periods after April 2022. The discount of $45 million on the CRD tax accretes over the four-year payment period from initial recognition.

Certain comparative amounts have been restated to reflect the adoption of IFRS 17 in the first quarter of 2024. See Note 1 to the interim consolidated financial statements for additional details.
Assets
As at April 30, 2024, total assets were up $26.1 billion or 3% from October 31, 2023, net of an approximate $3 billion decrease due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar.
Cash and deposits with banks decreased by $6.6 billion or 12%, primarily due to lower short-term placements in Treasury.
Securities increased by $24.2 billion or 11%, primarily due to increases in equity trading securities, debt security portfolios in our trading businesses, and mortgage-backed securities.
Securities borrowed and purchased under resale agreements increased by $5.0 billion or 5%, primarily due to client-driven activities.
Loans and acceptances, net of allowance for credit losses, increased by $3.7 billion or 1%, primarily due to increases in business and government loans, which was net of the impact of foreign exchange translation, and the credit card portfolio. Customers’ liability under acceptances decreased by $4.7 billion, in anticipation of the upcoming CDOR transition in June 2024.
Derivative instruments decreased by $1.8 billion or 6%, largely driven by decreases in foreign exchange and interest rate derivatives valuation, partially offset by an increase in equity derivatives valuation.
Other assets increased by $1.6 billion or 4%, primarily due to increases in collateral pledged for derivatives, accrued interest receivable, broker receivables, and accounts receivable.
Liabilities
As at April 30, 2024, total liabilities were up $23.6 billion or 3% from October 31, 2023, net of an approximate $2 billion decrease due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar.
Deposits increased by $8.6 billion or 1%, primarily due to increased retail volume growth, partially offset by a decrease in business and government deposits. Further details on the composition of deposits are provided in Note 7 to our interim consolidated financial statements.
Obligations related to securities lent, sold short and under repurchase agreements increased by $19.2 billion or 17%, primarily due to
client-driven
activities.
Derivative instruments decreased by $2.5 billion or 6%, largely driven by decreases in interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives valuation, partially offset by increases in commodity and equity derivatives valuation.
Other liabilities decreased by $3.1 billion or 8%, primarily due to a decrease in acceptances, partially offset by an increase in accrued interest payable. Acceptances decreased by $4.7 billion, in anticipation of the upcoming CDOR transition in June 2024.
Subordinated indebtedness increased by $1.3 billion or 20% due to the issuance of subordinated indebtedness in the first quarter. For further details see the “Capital management” section.
Equity
As at April 30, 2024, equity increased by $2.5 billion or 5% from October 31, 2023, primarily due to a net increase in retained earnings from net income that exceeded dividends and distributions and the negative retained earnings adjustment from the adoption of IFRS 17, and the issuance of common shares primarily related to our shareholder investment plan, net of a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI).

Capital management
Our overall capital management objective is to maintain a strong and efficient capital base. For additional details on capital management, see pages 35 to 45 of our 2023 Annual Report.
Regulatory capital and total loss absorbing capacity (TLAC) requirements
Our regulatory capital requirements are determined in accordance with guidelines issued by OSFI, which are based upon the capital standards developed by the BCBS.
Regulatory capital consists of CET1, Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital. Qualifying regulatory capital instruments must be capable of absorbing loss at the point of
non-viability
of the financial institution.
The tiers of regulatory capital indicate increasing quality/permanence and the ability to absorb losses. The major components of our regulatory capital are summarized as follows:
 
 
 
(1)
Excluding AOCI relating to cash flow hedges and changes to FVO liabilities attributable to changes in own credit risk.
OSFI requires all institutions to achieve target capital ratios which include buffers. Targets may be higher for certain institutions at OSFI’s discretion. CIBC has been designated by OSFI as a domestic systemically important bank
(D-SIB)
in Canada.
D-SIBs
are subject to a CET1 surcharge equal to 1.0% of RWA. In addition, OSFI expects
D-SIBs
to hold a Domestic Stability Buffer (DSB) requirement intended to address Pillar 2 risks that are not adequately captured in the Pillar 1 capital requirements. The DSB is currently at 3.5%, but can range from 0% to 4.0% of RWA. Additionally, banks need to hold an incremental countercyclical capital buffer equal to their weighted-average buffer requirement in Canada and across certain other jurisdictions where they have private sector credit exposures.
In addition, the Basel III capital standards include a
non-risk-based
capital metric, the leverage ratio, to supplement risk-based capital requirements. The leverage ratio is defined as Tier 1 capital divided by the leverage ratio exposure. The leverage ratio exposure is defined under the standards as the sum of:
(i)
On-balance
sheet assets less Tier 1 capital regulatory adjustments;
(ii)
Derivative exposures;
(iii)
Securities financing transaction exposures; and
(iv)
Off-balance
sheet exposures (such as commitments, direct credit substitutes, letters of credit, and securitization exposures).
Under OSFI’s TLAC guideline,
D-SIBs
are required to maintain a supervisory target TLAC ratio (which builds on the risk-based capital ratios) and a minimum TLAC leverage ratio (which builds on the leverage ratio). TLAC is defined as the aggregate of total capital and other TLAC instruments primarily comprised of
bail-in
eligible instruments with a residual maturity greater than 365 days. TLAC is required to ensure that a
non-viable
D-SIB
has sufficient loss absorbing capacity to support its recapitalization. This would, in turn, facilitate an orderly resolution of the
D-SIB
while minimizing adverse impacts on the financial sector stability and taxpayers.
OSFI’s current regulatory capital and TLAC targets are summarized below. Targets may be higher for certain institutions at OSFI’s discretion. We are in compliance with all current capital, leverage and TLAC requirements imposed by OSFI.

CET1 ratio
The CET1 ratio at April 30, 2024 increased 0.7% from October 31, 2023, driven by an increase in CET1 capital partially offset by an increase in RWA.
The increase in CET1 capital was mainly due to internal capital generation (net income less dividends and distributions), an increase in common shares primarily related to our shareholder investment plan, and the increase in AOCI related to debt securities measured at FVOCI, partially offset by the impact of foreign currency translation and the adoption of IFRS 17.
The increase in RWA was due to increases in market risk and operational risk RWA, partially offset by a decrease in credit risk RWA. The reduction in credit risk RWA was mainly due to converting the majority of CIBC Bank USA’s credit portfolios to the internal ratings-based (IRB) approach from the standardized approach, regulatory changes impacting the credit valuation adjustment (CVA) and foreign currency translation, partially offset by credit portfolio migration, regulatory changes related to certain residential mortgages in negative amortization and organic growth. The increase in market risk RWA was mainly due to the implementation of Basel III reforms related to market risk and an increase in risk levels. The increase in operational risk RWA was due to an increase in risk levels.
Tier 1 capital ratio
The Tier 1 capital ratio at April 30, 2024 increased 0.8% from October 31, 2023, primarily due to the factors affecting the CET1 ratio noted above, and the issuance of Series 57 shares, partially offset by the redemption of Series 49 shares, both in the current quarter. See the “Capital initiatives” section for further details.
Total capital ratio
The Total capital ratio at April 30, 2024 increased 1.0% from October 31, 2023, primarily due to a $1.25 billion issuance of subordinated debentures in the first quarter included in Tier 2 capital and the factors affecting the Tier 1 capital ratio noted above, partially offset by a decrease in eligible allowances included in Tier 2 capital. See the “Capital initiatives” section for further details.
Leverage ratio
The leverage ratio at April 30, 2024 increased 0.1% from October 31, 2023, primarily driven by the increase in Tier 1 capital discussed above, partially offset by the impact of an increase in leverage ratio exposure. The increase in leverage ratio exposure was primarily driven by an increase in
on-balance
sheet and securities financing transactions exposures.
TLAC ratio and TLAC leverage ratio
The TLAC ratio at April 30, 2024 decreased 1.3% from October 31, 2023, driven by a decrease in total TLAC instruments and the increase in RWA. The decrease in TLAC instruments was primarily a result of a lower level of
bail-in
eligible liabilities, partially offset by higher total capital due to the factors noted above.
The TLAC leverage ratio at April 30, 2024 decreased 0.7% from October 31, 2023, primarily due to the decrease in TLAC instruments as noted above and the increase in leverage ratio exposure as noted above.
Continuous enhancement to regulatory capital and TLAC requirements
The discussion below provides an update to Basel III reforms and revised Pillar 3 disclosure requirements and BCBS and OSFI publications that have been issued since our 2023 Annual Report.
Basel III reforms and revised Pillar 3 disclosure requirements
In 2023, we adopted revised CAR and LAR guidelines that came into effect in the second quarter of 2023 as part of OSFI’s implementation of the Basel III reforms, and implemented related revised Pillar 3 disclosure that became effective in the second and fourth quarters of 2023. In the first quarter of 2024, we implemented the Basel III reforms related to the revised market risk and CVA frameworks that became effective as of November 1, 2023. The related revised Pillar 3 disclosure for market risk and CVA will be implemented in the fourth quarter of 2024. The impact to the CET1 ratio from the Basel III reforms are noted above in the “Regulatory capital, leverage and TLAC ratios” section.

Parental Stand-Alone (Solo) TLAC Framework
The final guideline for the Solo TLAC Framework became effective for
D-SIBs
as of November 1, 2023. The Solo TLAC ratio is built on the risk-based TLAC ratio set out in the TLAC Guideline and the risk-based capital ratios described in the CAR Guideline. The risk-based Solo TLAC ratio will be the primary basis used by OSFI to measure the sufficiency of loss capacity that is readily available to the parent bank on a stand-alone, legal entity basis.
We continue to monitor and prepare for developments impacting regulatory capital and TLAC requirements and disclosures.
Capital initiatives
The following were the main capital initiatives undertaken in 2024:
Employee share purchase plan
Pursuant to the employee share purchase plan, we issued 786,615 common shares for consideration of $51 million for the current quarter and 1,457,807 common shares for consideration of $90 million for the six months ended April 30, 2024.
Shareholder investment plan
Pursuant to the shareholder investment plan, we issued 4,693,884 common shares for consideration of $299 million for the current quarter and 9,811,613 common shares for consideration of $607 million for the six months ended April 30, 2024.
Dividends
Common and preferred share dividends are declared quarterly at the discretion of the CIBC Board of Directors. The declaration and payment of dividends is governed by Section 79 of the
Bank Act
(Canada) and the terms of the preferred shares, as explained in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report.
Preferred shares
On April 30, 2024, we redeemed all 13 million Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 49 (NVCC) (Series 49 shares), at a redemption price of $25.00 per Series 49 share, for a total redemption cost of $325 million.
Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 57 (NVCC) (Series 57 shares)
On March 12, 2024, we issued 500,000 Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 57 (NVCC) (Series 57 shares) with a par value of $1,000.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $500 million. For the initial five-year period to April 12, 2029, the Series 57 shares pay semi-annual cash dividends on the 12th day of April and October in each year, as declared, at a rate of 7.337%. The first dividend, if declared, will be payable on October 12, 2024. On April 12, 2029, and on April 12 every five years thereafter, the dividend rate will reset to be equal to the then current five-year Government of Canada bond yield plus 3.90%.
Subject to regulatory approval and certain provisions of the shares, we may redeem all or any part of the then outstanding Series 57 shares at par during the period from March 12, 2029 to and including April 12, 2029 and during the period from March 12 to and including April 12 every five years thereafter.
Subordinated indebtedness
On January 16, 2024, we issued $1.25 billion principal amount of 5.30% Debentures due January 16, 2034. The Debentures bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.30% per annum (paid semi-annually) until January 16, 2029, and at Daily Compounded Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA) plus 2.02% per annum (paid quarterly) thereafter until maturity on January 16, 2034. The debenture qualifies as Tier 2 capital.
Subsequent to quarter end, on May 14, 2024, we announced the redemption of $1.5 billion of our 2.95% Debentures due June 19, 2029. In accordance with their terms, the Debentures will be redeemed at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The debenture qualified as Tier 2 capital.

Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, each share is convertible into a number of common shares, determined by dividing the par value of $25.00 ($1,000 in the case of Series 56 and 57) plus declared and unpaid dividends by the average common share price (as defined in the relevant prospectus supplement) subject to a minimum price per share (subject to adjustment in certain events as defined in the relevant prospectus supplement, including a share split). Preferred shareholders do not have the right to convert their shares into common shares.

The maximum number of common shares issuable on conversion excludes the impact of declared but unpaid dividends and accrued interest.
(3)
Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, the Series 53, 54 and 55 Preferred Shares held in the Limited Recourse Trust in support of the limited recourse capital notes are convertible into a number of common shares, determined by dividing the par value of $1,000 by the average common share price (as defined in the relevant prospectus supplement) subject to a minimum price per common share (subject to adjustment in certain events as defined in the relevant prospectus supplement, including a share split).
(4)
Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, the Debentures are convertible into a number of common shares, determined by dividing 150% of the par value plus accrued and unpaid interest by the average common share price (as defined in the relevant prospectus supplement) subject to a minimum price per common share (subject to adjustment in certain events as defined in the relevant prospectus supplement, including a share split).
n/a
Not applicable.
The occurrence of a “Trigger Event” would result in conversion of all of the outstanding NVCC instruments described above, which would represent a dilution impact of 87% based on the number of CIBC common shares and NVCC instruments outstanding as at April 30, 2024. As described in the CAR Guideline, a Trigger Event occurs when OSFI determines the bank is or is about to become
non-viable
and, if after conversion of all contingent instruments and consideration of any other relevant factors or circumstances, it is reasonably likely that its viability will be restored or maintained; or if the bank has accepted or agreed to accept a capital injection or equivalent support from a federal or provincial government, without which OSFI would have determined the bank to be
non-viable.
In addition to the potential dilution impacts related to the NVCC instruments discussed above, as at April 30, 2024, $57.7 billion (October 31, 2023: $60.8 billion) of our outstanding liabilities were subject to conversion under the
bail-in
regime. Under the
bail-in
regime, there is no fixed and
pre-determined
contractual conversion ratio for the conversion of the specified eligible shares and liabilities of CIBC that are subject to a
bail-in
conversion into common shares, nor are there specific requirements regarding whether liabilities subject to a
bail-in
conversion are converted into common shares of CIBC or any of its affiliates. Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC) determines the timing of the
bail-in
conversion, the portion of the specified eligible shares and liabilities to be converted and the terms and conditions of the conversion, subject to parameters set out in the
bail-in
regime. See the “Regulatory capital and total loss absorbing capacity (TLAC) requirements” section for further details.

Management of risk
Our approach to management of risk has not changed significantly from that described on pages 47 to 87 of our 2023 Annual Report.
Risk overview
CIBC faces a wide variety of risks across all of its areas of business. Identifying and understanding risks and their impact allows CIBC to frame its risk appetite and risk management practices. Defining acceptable levels of risk, and establishing sound principles, policies and practices for managing risks, is fundamental to achieving consistent and sustainable long-term performance, while remaining within our risk appetite.
 
Our risk appetite defines tolerance levels for various risks. This is the foundation for our risk management culture and our risk management framework.
Our risk management framework includes:
 
CIBC, SBU, functional group-level and regional risk appetite statements;
 
Risk frameworks, policies, procedures and limits to align activities with our risk appetite;
 
Regular risk reports to identify and communicate risk levels;
 
An independent control framework to identify and test the design and operating effectiveness of our key controls;
 
Stress testing to consider the potential impact of changes in the business environment on capital, liquidity and earnings;
 
Proactive consideration of risk mitigation options in order to optimize results; and
 
Oversight through our risk-focused committees and governance structure.
Managing risk is a shared responsibility at CIBC. Business units and risk management professionals work in collaboration to ensure that business strategies and activities are consistent with our risk appetite. CIBC’s approach to enterprise-wide risk management aligns with the three lines of defence model:
(i)
As the first line of defence, CIBC’s Management, in SBUs and functional groups own the risks and are accountable and responsible for identifying and assessing risks inherent in its activities in accordance with the CIBC risk appetite. In addition, Management establishes and maintains controls to mitigate such risks. Management may include governance groups within the business to facilitate the Control Framework and other risk-related processes. A Governance Group refers to a group within Business Unit Management (first line of defence) whose focus is to manage governance, risk and control activities on behalf of that Business Unit Management. A Governance Group is considered first line of defence, in conjunction with Business Unit Management. Control Groups are enterprise groups with typically bank-wide accountability for managing particular risk types alongside Business Units. They provide subject matter expertise to Business Unit Management and/or implement/maintain enterprise-wide control programs and activities for their domain area (for example Information Security). While Control Groups collaborate with Business Unit Management in identifying and managing risk, accountabilities for managing risk remain with Business Unit Management. Control Groups also challenge risk decisions and risk mitigation strategies.
(ii)
The second line of defence is independent from the first line of defence and provides an enterprise-wide view of specific risk types, guidance and effective challenge to risk and control activities. Risk Management is the primary second line of defence. Risk Management may leverage subject matter expertise of other groups (e.g., third parties or Control Groups) to inform their independent assessments, as appropriate.
(iii)
As the third line of defence, CIBC’s Internal Audit is responsible for providing reasonable assurance to senior management and the Audit Committee of the Board on the effectiveness of CIBC’s governance practices, risk management processes, and Internal Control as a part of its risk-based audit plan and in accordance with its mandate as described in the Internal Audit Charter.
A strong risk culture and communication between the three lines of defence are important characteristics of effective risk management.
We continuously monitor our risk profile against our defined risk appetite and related limits, taking action as needed to maintain an appropriate balance of risk and return. Monitoring our risk profile includes forward-looking analysis of sensitivity to local and global market factors, economic conditions, and geopolitical and regulatory environments that influence our overall risk profile.
Regular and transparent risk reporting and discussion at senior management committees facilitates communication of risks and discussion of risk management strategies across the organization.
Top and emerging risks
We monitor and review top and emerging risks that may affect our future results, and take action to mitigate potential risks. We perform in-depth analyses, which may include stress testing our exposures relative to the risks, and we provide updates and related developments to the Board on a regular basis. Top and emerging risks are those that we consider to have potential negative implications that are material for CIBC. See pages 55 to 58 of our 2023 Annual Report for details regarding the following top and emerging risks:
 
Inflation, interest rates and economic growth
 
Technology, information and cyber security risk
 
Disintermediation risk
 
Third-party risk
 
U.S. banking regulation
 
Corporate transactions
The remainder of this section describes top and emerging risks that have been updated for developments that have occurred since the issuance of our 2023 Annual Report, as well as regulatory and accounting developments that are material for CIBC.

  CIBC SECOND QUARTER 2024

Table of Contents
Canadian consumer debt and the housing market
The latest household debt-to-income ratio data reflects a continued downward trend that started in the third quarter of 2023. It is below
pre-pandemic
levels due to growth in disposable income and slower debt growth. Mortgage debt continues to trend at historically high levels, while non-mortgage
debt-to-income
and service ratios remain at historically low levels as clients maintain low utilization and high payment rates. Mortgage service ratios could see further increases as mortgages continue to renew at higher rates, and income growth decelerates from a slowing labour market.
2023 and 2024 year-to-date property sale volumes have slowed to 2018–2019 levels. Sustained high interest rates will maintain pressure on sales and mortgage growth that will put denominator pressure on serious arrears rates, as delinquencies rise from fiscal 2021–2022 cohorts maturing. Unemployment rates at current levels could elevate non-mortgage debt levels, as well as unsecured delinquency and loss rates, typical of the credit cycle. Effective November 1, 2023, OSFI revised its Capital Adequacy Requirements and Mortgage Insurer Capital Adequacy Test guidelines, resulting in an increase to RWA for mortgages that have been in negative amortization for three consecutive months with loan-to-value (LTV) over 65%.
Geopolitical risk
The level of geopolitical risk escalates at certain points in time. While the specific impact on the global economy and on global credit and capital markets would depend on the nature of the event, in general, any major event could result in instability and volatility, leading to widening spreads, declining equity valuations, flight to safe-haven currencies and increased purchases of gold. In the short run, market disruption could hurt the net income of our trading and non-trading market risk positions. Geopolitical risk could reduce economic growth, and in combination with the potential impacts on commodity prices and the recent rise of protectionism, could have serious negative implications for general economic and banking activities. Current areas of concern include:
 
Conflict in the Middle East;
 
Relations between the U.S. and Iran;
 
The war in Ukraine;
 
Ongoing U.S., Canada and China relations and trade issues; and
 
Rising civil unrest and activism globally.
While it is impossible to predict where new geopolitical disruption will occur, we do pay particular attention to markets and regions with existing or recent historical instability to assess the impact of these environments on the markets and businesses in which we operate.
Climate risk
On March 13, 2024, the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board (CSSB) released proposed Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards (CSDS) 1 “General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information” and CSDS 2 “Climate-related Disclosures” for consultation, which align with the International Sustainability Standards Board’s (ISSB) inaugural standards IFRS S1 “General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information” (IFRS S1) and IFRS S2 “Climate-related Disclosures” (IFRS S2). The proposals include certain Canadian-specific modifications to the effective dates and transition relief of IFRS S1 and IFRS S2, including the deferral of the initial application by one year to our reporting period ending October 31, 2026, to the extent that the proposed CSDS become effective in Canada.
On March 20, 2024, OSFI published updates to Guideline B-15 on Climate Risk Management (Guideline B-15), to align its minimum mandatory climate-related financial disclosure expectations with IFRS S2. OSFI is expected to continue to review Guideline B-15 as practices and standards evolve. Guideline B-15 continues to be initially effective for us for our reporting period ended October 31, 2024 for certain disclosure elements.
Commodity prices
Commodity prices can experience significant volatility due to a variety of factors that affect supply and demand fundamentals. These include, but are not limited to, the current economic environment, geopolitical risk, market liquidity, financial speculators, seasonality and weather, and the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Current areas of focus for CIBC include the potential for the conflict in the Middle East and the war in Ukraine to disrupt the supply and transportation of oil, gas and agricultural products. The impact on inflation and central bank policy is also in focus. Although CIBC monitors its exposure to changes in commodity prices and has risk mitigants to control for this exposure, fluctuating commodity prices could have adverse impacts on banking activities.
Data and Artificial Intelligence risk
Throughout fiscal 2023, we observed growth in Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools and a steady increase in AI exploration at the bank. The commercialization of advanced language models, advances in access and availability, and an emphasis on responsible practices have opened up several use cases. There is increased public and regulatory attention to AI’s ethical implications, including concerns about accuracy, bias and fairness. To address this, AI governance is under development at the bank, as well as an enterprise-wide AI framework, incorporating trustworthy AI principles into AI development and deployment practices. From a model risk perspective, OSFI released an updated draft of Guideline E-23 on Model Risk Management which recognizes the surge in AI and Machine Learning (ML) analytics increasing the risk arising from the use of models. As such, the definition of “model” in the updated draft Guideline E-23 expressly includes AI/ML methods. As we navigate the increased adoption of solutions using AI, our approach will remain rooted in ensuring responsible use and ensuring operational risks are mitigated.
Anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing and sanctions
Money laundering, terrorist financing activities and other related crimes pose a threat to the stability and integrity of a country’s financial sector and its broader economy. In recognition of this threat, the international community has made the fight against these illegal activities a priority. We are committed to adhering to all regulatory requirements pertaining to anti-money laundering (AML), anti-terrorist financing (ATF) and sanctions in the jurisdictions where we operate and implementing best practices to minimize the impact of such activities. In Canada, to improve the effectiveness of the AML/ATF regime, amendments to the regulations under the
Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act
continue to be published, with some provisions coming into force in 2024. In accordance with these amendments, we have implemented procedures, processes and controls with respect to client due diligence, record keeping and reporting as well as mandatory annual AML/ATF and Sanctions training for all employees to ensure that relevant regulatory obligations are met in each jurisdiction where we operate. Canada, the U.S., the U.K. and the EU continue to expand and adjust economic sanctions related to the war in Ukraine, and with respect to the conflict in the Middle East, which continue to develop. While overall exposure is deemed limited, we continue to monitor and enhance controls, as required to respond to these evolving situations.

Interbank Offered Rate transition
Interest rate benchmarks including the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other similar benchmark rates have been reformed and replaced by alternative benchmark rates (alternative rates) that meet regulatory definitions. Sterling, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, Euro and some USD LIBOR settings transitioned to alternative rates in 2022, and the remaining USD LIBOR settings transitioned in 2023. CDOR is expected to transition to CORRA in June 2024. See the “Other regulatory developments” section for further details.
Tax reform
On November 28, 2023, the Canadian federal government tabled Bill C-59 in Parliament, which includes certain tax measures from the 2023 fall economic statement and 2023 federal budget. Bill C-59 includes the denial of the dividends received deduction in respect of Canadian shares held as mark-to-market property, as well as a 2% tax on certain share buy backs. The application date for these measures is January 1, 2024. Bill C-59 was not substantively enacted as at April 30, 2024, and is therefore not reflected in the reported income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended April 30, 2024.
On May 28, 2024, Parliament completed third reading of Bill C-59. As a result, the proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks was substantively enacted as of that date and will be reflected in the reported income tax expense for the third quarter ended July 31, 2024.
On May 2, 2024, the Canadian federal government tabled Bill C-69 for first reading in Parliament. Bill C-69 includes certain provisions of the Canadian federal budget tabled on April 16, 2024, as well as a revised GMTA, which differs in part from the GMTA released by the Canadian federal government on August 4, 2023. The GMTA would implement rules in Canada for a 15% global minimum tax regime as part of Canada’s agreement to adopt the OECD Pillar Two regime for a global minimum tax. More than 135 OECD member countries have agreed to adopt the regime. Pillar Two rules are in different stages of adoption globally. Certain countries in which CIBC operates have enacted Pillar Two legislation, however, the legislation is not yet in effect in those countries. In order to meet OECD’s recommended timing, the GMTA is expected to be enacted in 2024 and with application as of CIBC’s 2025 fiscal year. CIBC is currently reviewing the latest draft of the GMTA in Bill C-69 and evaluating its impact on our global operations, which impact is not reasonably estimable at this time. See the “Financial results review – Taxes” section for further details.

Credit risk
 
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss due to a borrower or counterparty failing to meet its obligations in accordance with contractual terms.
Credit risk arises out of the lending businesses in each of our SBUs and in International banking, which is included in Corporate and Other. Other sources of credit risk consist of our trading activities, which include our OTC derivatives, debt securities, and our repo-style transaction activity. In addition to losses on the default of a borrower or counterparty, unrealized gains or losses may occur due to changes in the credit spread of the counterparty, which could impact the carrying or fair value of our assets.
Exposure to credit risk
The following table provides our exposure to credit risk by portfolios based upon how we manage the business and the associated risks. Gross credit exposure amounts presented in the table below represent our estimate of exposure at default (EAD), which is net of derivative master netting agreements and CVA but is before allowance for credit losses or credit risk mitigation for IRB approaches. Gross credit exposure amounts relating to our business and government portfolios are reduced for collateral held for repo-style transactions, which reflects the EAD value of such collateral.

Beginning the first quarter of 2024, the IRB approach was applied to the majority of our credit portfolios within CIBC Bank USA, which previously followed the standardized approach.
(2)
Includes exposures subject to the supervisory slotting approach.
(3)
OSFI guidelines define a hierarchy of approaches for treating securitization exposures in our banking book. Depending on the underlying characteristics, exposures are eligible for either the standardized approach or the IRB approach. The external ratings-based approach (SEC-ERBA), which is inclusive of the internal assessment approach (SEC-IAA), includes exposures that qualify for the IRB approach, as well as exposures under the standardized approach.
(4)
Excludes exposures arising from derivative and repo-style transactions which are cleared through qualified central counterparties (QCCPs) as well as credit risk exposures arising from other assets that are subject to the credit risk framework, including other balance sheet assets which are risk-weighted at 100%, significant investments in the capital of non-financial institutions which are risk-weighted at 1250%, settlement risk, and amounts below the thresholds for deduction which are risk-weighted at 250%. Non-trading equity exposures are also excluded and are subject to a range of risk-weightings dependent on the nature of the security.
Forbearance techniques
We employ forbearance techniques to manage client relationships and to minimize credit losses due to default, foreclosure or repossession. In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to modify a loan for reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, reducing the potential of default. Total debt restructurings are subject to our normal quarterly impairment review which considers, amongst other factors, covenants and/or payment delinquencies. Loan loss provisions are adjusted as appropriate.
In retail lending, forbearance techniques include interest capitalization, amortization amendments and debt consolidations. We have a set of eligibility criteria that allow our Client Account Management team to determine suitable remediation strategies and propose products based on each borrower’s situation.
The solutions available to corporate and commercial clients vary based on the individual nature of the client’s situation and are undertaken selectively where it has been determined that the client has or is likely to have repayment difficulties servicing its obligations. Covenants often reveal changes in the client’s financial situation before there is a change in payment behaviour and typically allow for a right to reprice or accelerate payments. Solutions may be temporary in nature or may involve other special management options.

Real estate secured personal lending
Real estate secured personal lending comprises residential mortgages, and personal loans and lines secured by residential property (HELOC). This portfolio is lower risk compared with other retail portfolios, as we have a first charge on the majority of the properties and a second lien on only a small portion of the portfolio. We use the same lending criteria in the adjudication of both first lien and second lien loans.
The following disclosures are required by OSFI pursuant to the Guideline B-20 “Residential Mortgage Underwriting Practices and Procedures” (Guideline B-20).

Includes variable rate mortgages of $53.7 billion (October 31, 2023: $59.9 billion), of which $35.9 billion (October 31, 2023: $42.9 billion) relates to mortgages in which all of the fixed contractual payments are currently being applied to interest based on the rates in effect at April 30, 2024 and October 31, 2023, respectively, and the terms of the mortgages, with the portion of the contractual interest requirement not met by the payments being added to the principal. Since the amortization profile reflected in this table is based on the current amount of existing contractual payments, it does not reflect that the contractual payment amount is required to be increased at the time of renewal by the amount necessary to reduce the amortization period down to the period in effect at the time the mortgage was originally provided.
The extended amortization profile is driven by the prime rate increases that commenced in early 2022, impacting clients with a variable rate mortgage. The increase in interest rates had no impact on the remaining amortization period for fixed rate mortgages which in the current interest rate environment are assumed to be renewed at the same or a shorter amortization period.
We have two types of condominium exposures in Canada: mortgages and developer loans. Both are primarily concentrated in the Toronto and Vancouver areas. As at April 30, 2024, our Canadian condominium mortgages were $40.6 billion (October 31, 2023: $40.2 billion) of which 17% (October 31, 2023: 18%) were insured. Our drawn developer loans were $2.2 billion (October 31, 2023: $2.2 billion) or 1.1% (October 31, 2023: 1.1%) of our business and government portfolio, and our related undrawn exposure was $6.1 billion (October 31, 2023: $6.3 billion). The condominium developer exposure is diversified across 119 projects.
We stress test our mortgage and HELOC portfolios to determine the potential impact of different economic events. Our stress tests can use variables such as unemployment rates, debt service ratios and housing price changes, to model potential outcomes for a given set of circumstances. The stress testing involves variables that could behave differently in certain situations. Our main tests use economic variables in a similar range or more conservative to historical events when Canada experienced economic downturns. Our results show that in an economic downturn, our capital position should be sufficient to absorb mortgage and HELOC losses.

Net impaired loans are gross impaired loans net of stage 3 allowance for credit losses.
Gross impaired loans
As at April 30, 2024, gross impaired loans were $2,849 million, up $521 million from the same quarter last year, primarily due to increases in the Canadian residential mortgages and personal lending portfolios, as well as the real estate and construction, the capital goods manufacturing and the hardware and software sectors, partially offset by a decrease in the retail and wholesale sector.
Gross impaired loans were down $148 million from the prior quarter, primarily due to a decrease in the real estate and construction sector, including from the sale of loans in the current quarter, partially offset by increases in the capital goods manufacturing and the hardware and software sectors.
47% of gross impaired loans related to Canada, of which the residential mortgages and personal lending portfolios, as well as the real estate and construction, and the education, health and social services sectors accounted for the majority.
41% of gross impaired loans related to the U.S., of which the real estate and construction, the capital goods manufacturing and the hardware and software sectors accounted for the majority.
The remaining gross impaired loans related to International banking, of which the residential mortgages and personal lending portfolios, as well as the business services, and the real estate and construction sectors accounted for the majority.
Allowance for credit losses – impaired loans
Allowance for credit losses on impaired loans was $885 million, up $8 million from the same quarter last year, primarily due to increases in the Canadian mortgages and personal lending portfolios, as well as the real estate and construction sector, partially offset by a decrease in the retail and wholesale sector.
Allowance for credit losses on impaired loans was down $188 million from the prior quarter, primarily due to a decrease in the real estate and construction sector.
 
Loans contractually past due but not impaired
The following table provides an aging analysis of loans that are not impaired, where repayment of principal or payment of interest is contractually in arrears. Loans less than 30 days past due are excluded as such loans are not generally indicative of the borrowers’ ability to meet their payment obligations.

U.S. office real estate exposure
As at April 30, 2024, our drawn loans in our real estate and construction portfolio in the U.S. was $22,209 million, net of impaired allowances (October 31, 2023: $23,468 million), including $3,925 million (US$2,851 million) (October 31, 2023: $4,723 million (US$3,405 million)) related to U.S. office real estate exposure. Our total drawn commercial loans outstanding related to U.S. office commercial real estate was $4,293 million (US$3,118 million) (October 31, 2023: $5,067 million (US$3,653 million)), including $368 million (US$267 million) (October 31, 2023: $344 million (US$248 million)) in sectors outside of real estate and construction, out of which $444 million (US$322 million) (October 31, 2023: $913 million (US$659 million)) was impaired. The decrease in impaired U.S. office commercial real estate loans was primarily due to the sale of a number of loans during the quarter ended April 30, 2024. The average LTV at origination of the portfolio was 60% (October 31, 2023: 60%), however values have dropped significantly due to sector headwinds. We are closely monitoring this portfolio as conditions evolve.

Trading activities
We hold positions in traded financial contracts to meet client investment and risk management needs. Trading revenue (net interest income and non-interest income) is generated from these transactions. Trading instruments are recorded at fair value and include debt and equity securities, as well as interest rate, foreign exchange, equity, commodity, and credit derivative products.
Value-at-Risk
Our Value-at-Risk (VaR) methodology is a statistical technique that measures the potential overnight loss at a 99% confidence level. We use a full revaluation historical simulation methodology to compute VaR and other risk measures.
The following table shows VaR for our trading activities based on risk type.

Average total VaR for the three months ended April 30, 2024 was up $3.7 million from the prior quarter, driven primarily by an increase in interest rate risk.
Trading revenue
Trading revenue (TEB) comprises both trading net interest income and non-interest income and excludes underwriting fees and commissions. Trading revenue (TEB) in the chart below excludes certain exited portfolios.
During the quarter, trading revenue (TEB) was positive for 100% of the days. Average daily trading revenue (TEB) was $9.0 million during the quarter. Average daily trading revenue (TEB) is calculated as the total trading revenue (TEB) divided by the number of business days in the period.

Non-trading activities
Structural interest rate risk (SIRR)
SIRR primarily consists of the risk arising due to mismatches in assets and liabilities, which do not arise from trading and trading-related businesses. The objective of SIRR management is to lock in product spreads and deliver stable and predictable net interest income over time, while managing the risk to the economic value of our assets arising from changes in interest rates.
SIRR results from differences in the maturities or repricing dates of assets and liabilities, both on- and off-balance sheet, as well as from embedded
optionality in retail products, and other product features that could affect the expected timing of cash flows, such as options to pre-pay loans or redeem term deposits prior to contractual maturity. A number of assumptions affecting cash flows, product repricing and the administration of rates underlie the models used to measure SIRR. The key assumptions pertain to the expected funding profile of mortgage rate commitments, fixed rate loan prepayment behaviour, term deposit redemption behaviour, the treatment of non-maturity deposits and equity. All assumptions are derived empirically based on historical client behaviour, balance sheet composition and product pricing with the consideration of possible forward-looking changes. All models and assumptions used to measure SIRR are subject to independent oversight by Risk Management. A variety of cash instruments and derivatives, primarily interest rate swaps, are used to manage these risks.
The following table shows the potential before-tax impact of an immediate and sustained 100 basis point increase and 100 basis point decrease in interest rates on projected 12-month net interest income and the economic value of equity (EVE) for our structural balance sheet, assuming no subsequent hedging.

Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk of having insufficient cash or its equivalent in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet financial obligations as they come due. Common sources of liquidity risk inherent in banking services include unanticipated withdrawals of deposits, the inability to replace maturing debt, credit and liquidity commitments, and additional pledging or other collateral requirements.
Our approach to liquidity risk management supports our business strategy, aligns with our risk appetite and adheres to regulatory expectations.
Our management strategies, objectives and practices are regularly reviewed to align with changes to the liquidity environment, including regulatory, business and/or market developments. Liquidity risk remains within CIBC’s risk appetite.
Governance and management
We manage liquidity risk in a manner that enables us to withstand a liquidity stress event without an adverse impact on the viability of our operations. Actual and anticipated cash flows generated from on- and off-balance sheet exposures are routinely measured and monitored to ensure compliance with established limits. We incorporate stress testing into the management and measurement of liquidity risk. Stress test results assist with the development of our liquidity assumptions, identification of potential constraints to funding planning, and contribute to the design of our contingency funding plan.
Liquidity risk is managed using the three lines of defence model, and the ongoing management of liquidity risk is the responsibility of the Treasurer, supported by guidance from the Global Asset Liability Committee (GALCO).
The Treasurer is responsible for managing the activities and processes required for measurement and the reporting and monitoring of CIBC’s liquidity risk position as the first line of defence.
The Liquidity and Non-Trading Market Risk group provides independent oversight of the measurement, monitoring and control of liquidity risk, as the second line of defence.
Internal audit is the third line of defence providing reasonable assurance to senior management and the Audit Committee of the Board on the effectiveness of CIBC’s governance practices, risk management processes, and internal control as part of its risk-based audit plan and in accordance with its mandate as described in the Internal Audit Charter.
The GALCO governs CIBC’s liquidity risk management, ensuring the liquidity risk management methodologies, assumptions, and key metrics are regularly reviewed and aligned with CIBC’s requirements. The Liquidity Risk Management Committee, a subcommittee of GALCO, monitors global liquidity risk and is responsible for ensuring that CIBC’s liquidity risk profile is comprehensively measured and managed in alignment with CIBC’s strategic direction, risk appetite and regulatory requirements.
The Risk Management Committee (RMC) provides governance through bi-annual review of CIBC’s liquidity risk management policy, and recommends liquidity risk tolerance to the Board through the risk appetite statement which is reviewed annually.
 
Liquid assets
Available liquid assets include unencumbered cash and marketable securities from on- and off-balance sheet sources that can be used to access funding in a timely fashion. Encumbered liquid assets, composed of assets pledged as collateral and those assets that are deemed restricted due to legal, operational, or other purposes, are not considered as sources of available liquidity when measuring liquidity risk.
Encumbered and unencumbered liquid assets from on- and off-balance sheet sources are summarized as follows:

Table of Contents
Asset haircuts and monetization depth assumptions under a liquidity stress scenario are applied to the unencumbered liquid asset values to determine estimated cash inflows from monetization. Haircuts take into consideration those margins applicable at central banks – such as the Bank of Canada and the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank – historical observations, and securities characteristics including asset type, issuer, credit ratings, currency and remaining term to maturity, as well as available regulatory guidance.
Our unencumbered liquid assets as at April 30, 2024 increased by $2.4 billion since October 31, 2023, primarily due to an increase in unencumbered liquid securities, partially offset by a reduction in cash balances.
Furthermore, we maintain access eligibility to the Bank of Canada’s Emergency Lending Assistance program and the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank’s Discount Window.
Asset encumbrance
 
In the course of our day-to-day operations, securities and other assets are pledged to secure obligations, participate in clearing and settlement systems and for other collateral management purposes.

Restrictions on the flow of funds
Our subsidiaries are not subject to significant restrictions that would prevent transfers of funds, dividends or capital distributions. However, certain subsidiaries have different capital and liquidity requirements, established by applicable banking and securities regulators.
We monitor and manage our capital and liquidity requirements across these entities to ensure that resources are used efficiently and entities are in compliance with local regulatory and policy requirements.
Liquidity coverage ratio
The objective of the LCR is to promote short-term resilience of a bank’s liquidity risk profile, ensuring that it has adequate unencumbered high quality liquid resources to meet its liquidity needs in a 30-day acute stress scenario. Canadian banks are required by OSFI to achieve a minimum LCR value of 100%. We are in compliance with this requirement.
In accordance with the calibration methodology contained in OSFI’s LAR Guideline, we report the LCR to OSFI on a monthly basis. The ratio is calculated as the total of unencumbered high quality liquid assets (HQLA) over the total net cash outflows in the next 30 calendar days.
The LCR’s numerator consists of unencumbered HQLA, which follow an OSFI-defined set of eligibility criteria that considers fundamental and market-related characteristics, and the relative ability to operationally monetize assets on a timely basis during a period of stress. Our centrally managed liquid asset portfolio includes those liquid assets reported in the HQLA, such as central government treasury bills and bonds, central bank deposits and high-rated sovereign, agency, provincial, and corporate securities. Asset eligibility limitations inherent in the LCR metric do not necessarily reflect our internal assessment of our ability to monetize its marketable assets under stress.
The ratio’s denominator reflects net cash outflows expected in the LCR’s stress scenario over the 30-calendar-day period. Expected cash outflows represent LCR-defined withdrawal or draw-down rates applied against outstanding liabilities and off-balance sheet commitments, respectively. Significant contributors to our LCR outflows include business and financial institution deposit run-off, draws on undrawn lines of credit and unsecured debt maturities. Cash outflows are partially offset by cash inflows, which are calculated at OSFI-prescribed LCR inflow rates, and include performing loan repayments and maturing non-HQLA marketable assets.
Furthermore, CIBC reports the LCR to OSFI in multiple currencies, and thus measures the extent of potential currency mismatch under the ratio. CIBC predominantly operates in major currencies with deep and fungible foreign exchange markets.
During a period of financial stress, institutions may use their stock of HQLA, thereby falling below 100%, as maintaining the LCR at 100% under such circumstances could produce undue negative effects on the institution and other market participants.

Unweighted inflow and outflow values are calculated as outstanding balances maturing or callable within 30 days of various categories or types of liabilities, off-balance sheet items or contractual receivables.
(2)
Weighted values are calculated after the application of haircuts (for HQLA) and inflow and outflow rates prescribed by OSFI.
n/a
Not applicable as per the LCR common disclosure template.
Our average LCR as at April 30, 2024 decreased to 129% from 137% in the prior quarter, due to an increase in net cash outflows, partially offset by an increase in HQLA. The increase in total net cash outflows compared to the prior quarter mainly reflects funding nearing maturity.
Net stable funding ratio
Derived from the BCBS’s Basel III framework and incorporated into OSFI’s LAR Guideline, the NSFR standard aims to promote long-term resilience of the financial sector by requiring banks to maintain a sustainable funding profile in relation to the composition of their assets and off-balance sheet activities. Canadian D-SIBs are required to maintain a minimum NSFR value of 100% on a consolidated bank basis. CIBC is in compliance with this requirement.
In accordance with the calibration methodology contained in OSFI’s LAR Guideline, we report the NSFR to OSFI on a quarterly basis. The ratio is calculated as total available stable funding (ASF) over the total required stable funding (RSF).
The numerator consists of the portion of capital and liabilities considered reliable over a one-year time horizon. The NSFR considers longer-term sources of funding to be more stable than short-term funding and deposits from retail and commercial customers to be behaviourally more stable than wholesale funding of the same maturity. In accordance with our funding strategy, key drivers of our ASF include client deposits supplemented by secured and unsecured wholesale funding, and capital instruments.
The denominator represents the amount of stable funding required based on the OSFI-defined liquidity characteristics and residual maturities of assets and off-balance sheet exposures. The NSFR ascribes varying degrees of RSF such that HQLA and short-term exposures are assumed to have a lower funding requirement than less liquid and longer-term exposures. Our RSF is largely driven by retail, commercial and corporate lending, investments in liquid assets, derivative exposures, and undrawn lines of credit and liquidity.
The ASF and RSF may be adjusted to zero for certain liabilities and assets that are determined to be interdependent if they meet the NSFR-defined criteria, which take into account the purpose, amount, cash flows, tenor and counterparties among other aspects to ensure the institution is acting solely as a pass-through unit for the underlying transactions. We report, where applicable, interdependent assets and liabilities arising from transactions OSFI has designated as eligible for such treatment in the LAR Guideline.

No assigned time period per disclosure template design.
Our NSFR was 115% at April 30, 2024, comparable with the prior quarter, mainly due to an increase in retail deposits, offset by a decrease in wholesale funding and an increase in the funding requirement for loans.
CIBC considers the impact of its business decisions on the LCR, NSFR and other liquidity risk metrics that it regularly monitors as part of a robust liquidity risk management function. Variables that can impact the metrics month-over-month include, but are not limited to, items such as wholesale funding activities and maturities, strategic balance sheet initiatives, and transactions and market conditions affecting collateral.
Reporting of the LCR and NSFR is calibrated centrally by Treasury, in conjunction with the SBUs and other functional groups.

Funding
 
We fund our operations with client-sourced deposits, supplemented with a wide range of wholesale funding.
Our principal approach aims to fund our consolidated balance sheet with deposits primarily raised from personal and commercial banking channels. We maintain a foundation of relationship-based core deposits, whose stability is regularly evaluated through internally developed statistical assessments.
We routinely access a range of short-term and long-term secured and unsecured funding sources diversified by geography, depositor type, instrument, currency and maturity. We raise long-term funding from existing programs including covered bonds, asset securitizations and unsecured debt.
We continuously evaluate opportunities to diversify into new funding products and investor segments in an effort to maximize funding flexibility and minimize concentration and financing costs. We regularly monitor wholesale funding levels and concentrations to internal limits consistent with our desired liquidity risk profile.
GALCO and RMC review and approve CIBC’s funding plan, which incorporates projected asset and liability growth, funding maturities, and output from our liquidity position forecasting.
The following table provides the contractual maturity profile of our wholesale funding sources at their carrying values:

We manage liquidity risk in a manner that enables us to withstand severe liquidity stress events. Wholesale funding may present a higher risk of run-off in stress situations, and we maintain significant portfolios of unencumbered liquid assets to mitigate this risk. See the “Liquid assets” section for additional details.
On October 31, 2023, OSFI announced its decision regarding the May 2023 public consultation on the LAR review for wholesale funding sources with retail-like characteristics, specifically high-interest savings account exchange-traded funds. These changes impacting our LCR and NSFR were implemented in the first quarter of 2024.
Credit ratings
Our access to and cost of wholesale funding are dependent on multiple factors, among them credit ratings provided by rating agencies. Rating agencies’ opinions are based upon internal methodologies, and are subject to change based on factors including, but not limited to, financial strength, competitive position, macroeconomic backdrop and liquidity positioning.
Our credit ratings are summarized in the following table:

Additional collateral requirements for rating downgrades
We are required to deliver collateral to certain derivative counterparties in the event of a downgrade to our current credit risk rating. The collateral requirement is based on MTM exposure, collateral valuations, and collateral arrangement thresholds, as applicable. The following table presents the additional cumulative collateral requirements for rating downgrades:

Contractual obligations
Contractual obligations give rise to commitments of future payments affecting our short- and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. These obligations include financial liabilities, credit and liquidity commitments, and other contractual obligations.
 
Assets and liabilities
The following table provides the contractual maturity profile of our on-balance sheet assets, liabilities and equity at their carrying values. Contractual analysis is not representative of our liquidity risk exposure, however, this information serves to inform our management of liquidity risk, and provide input when modelling a behavioural balance sheet.

Obligations that are legally binding agreements whereby we agree to purchase products or services with specific minimum or baseline quantities defined at fixed, minimum or variable prices over a specified period of time are defined as purchase obligations. Purchase obligations are included through to the termination date specified in the respective agreements, even if the contract is renewable. Many of the purchase agreements for goods and services include clauses that would allow us to cancel the agreement prior to expiration of the contract within a specific notice period. However, the amount above includes our obligations without regard to such termination clauses (unless actual notice of our intention to terminate the agreement has been communicated to the counterparty). The table excludes purchases of debt and equity instruments that settle within standard market time frames.
(2)
Excludes lease obligations that are accounted for under IFRS 16, which are typically recognized on the consolidated balance sheet, and operating and tax expenses relating to lease commitments. The table includes lease obligations that are not accounted for under IFRS 16, including those related to future starting lease commitments for which we have not yet recognized a lease liability and right-of-use asset.
(3)
Includes estimated minimum funding contributions for our funded defined benefit pension plans in Canada, the U.S., the U.K., and the Caribbean. Estimated minimum funding contributions are included only for the remaining annual period ending October 31, 2024 as the minimum contributions are affected by various factors, such as market performance and regulatory requirements, and therefore are subject to significant variability.
Other risks
We also have policies and processes to measure, monitor and control other risks, including strategic, reputation, environmental and social, and operational risks, such as insurance, technology, information and cyber security, and regulatory compliance. These risks and related policies and processes have not changed significantly from those described on pages 83 to 87 of our 2023 Annual Report.
Accounting and control matters
Critical accounting policies and estimates
The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” using IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). A summary of significant accounting policies is presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report. The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as CIBC’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended October 31, 2023, except for the adoption of IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” on a retrospective basis beginning on November 1, 2023, with a restatement of the comparative period, and the adoption of certain amendments to IAS 12 “Income Taxes” (IAS 12) related to the “International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules”, on a prospective basis beginning on November 1, 2023.
The adoption of IFRS 17 resulted in an after-tax reduction of $56 million to retained earnings as at November 1, 2022, the beginning of the comparative year and an increase in net income after-tax of $6 million for the year ended October 31, 2023. The financial impact of IFRS 17 is described in Note 1 to our interim consolidated financial statements.
The adoption of the IAS 12 amendments requires us to provide additional disclosure during the periods where Pillar Two legislation has been enacted or substantively enacted but is not yet in effect, as reflected in Note 11 to our interim consolidated financial statements.
Certain accounting policies require us to make judgments and estimates, some of which relate to matters that are uncertain. The current macroeconomic environment, including the impact of higher levels of interest rates, the easing of inflationary pressures, the impact from events in the U.S. banking sector and geopolitical events, gives rise to heightened uncertainty as it relates to our accounting estimates and assumptions and increases the need to apply judgment. In particular, changes in the judgments and estimates related to IFRS 9 can have a significant impact on the level of ECL allowance recognized and period-over-period volatility of the provision for credit losses. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Annual Report and Note 6 to our interim consolidated financial statements for more information concerning the high level of judgment inherent in the estimation of ECL allowance.

For details on future accounting policy changes, refer to Note 1 to our interim consolidated financial statements.

Other regulatory developments
Interest rate benchmark reform
Various interest rate and other indices deemed to be “benchmarks” continue to be the subject of international regulatory guidance and reforms. Consistent with announcements by various regulators, we previously transitioned our exposures from Sterling, Japanese yen, Swiss franc and Euro LIBOR settings to the new alternative benchmark rates. We also previously substantially completed the transition of our USD LIBOR referenced contracts to alternative rates as of June 30, 2023. As a result of the Financial Conduct Authority’s announcement that the LIBOR administrator will continue to publish certain USD LIBOR settings on a non-representative synthetic basis after June 30, 2023 for a limited period to allow market participants to use such rates in legacy contracts, we continue to have subordinated debenture liabilities amounting to US$48 million that continue to reference LIBOR.
In December 2021, the Canadian Alternative Reference Rate working group (CARR) recommended to Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited (RBSL), the CDOR administrator, to cease the calculation and publication of CDOR after June 30, 2024 and proposed a two-staged approach to the transition from CDOR to CORRA. Following public consultation, on May 16, 2022, RBSL announced that it will permanently cease the publication and calculation of all remaining tenors of CDOR after June 28, 2024. Following this announcement, OSFI published its expectations for CDOR transition, which were consistent with the two-stage transition approach proposed by CARR. OSFI expected that all new derivatives and securities to transition to the alternative rates by June 30, 2023, and expects that no new CDOR exposures to be originated after that date, with limited exceptions. OSFI also expects all loan agreements referencing CDOR to be transitioned by June 28, 2024, and federally regulated financial institutions to prioritize system and model updates to accommodate the use of CORRA prior to June 28, 2024. In 2023, CARR announced the development of 1-month and 3-month Term CORRA benchmarks, which were launched on September 5, 2023. In July 2023, CARR announced that no new CDOR or bankers’ acceptance (BA) loans are to be originated after November 1, 2023. In addition, the Canadian Fixed Income Forum (CFIF) published a white paper in January 2023 on the impact of CDOR cessation on the Bankers’ Acceptance market and the potential for alternative instruments, and the Bank of Canada announced in October 2023 that Bankers’ Acceptances (BAs) will no longer be issued by major Canadian banks after the cessation of CDOR publication in June 2024. In April 2024, RBSL reaffirmed that all three tenors of CDOR will cease to be published after June 28, 2024 and CARR further announced that no synthetic CDOR rate will be made available after RBSL ceases CDOR publication.
The transition from current reference rates such as CDOR to alternative rates such as CORRA may adversely affect the value of, return on, or trading market for contracts linked to existing benchmarks. A significant number of CIBC’s derivatives, securities, and lending and deposit contracts reference CDOR, including contracts with maturity dates that extend beyond the cessation dates announced by the regulators.
In response to the reforms to interest rate benchmarks, CIBC established an Enterprise IBOR Transition Program (Program), to manage and coordinate all aspects of the transition. The Program is supported by a formal governance structure and dedicated working groups that include stakeholders from frontline businesses as well as functional groups such as Treasury, Technology and Operations, Risk Management, Legal, and Finance, to facilitate the transition.
Following the transition of Sterling, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, Euro and USD LIBOR settings to the new alternative benchmark rates, the Program continues to progress on its CDOR transition plan to ensure an orderly transition in alignment with regulatory expectations. Consistent with this, no new derivatives or securities referenced to CDOR were originated after June 30, 2023, with limited permitted exceptions. We are in the process of transitioning our CDOR and BA based contracts to the alternative rates by incorporating appropriate fallback provisions or making amendments to contracts to reference alternative rates, and have developed business processes to support the transition. We have also reduced our BA issuances, ahead of the expected cessation of CDOR, and have made plans with clearing houses to transition our CDOR referencing derivatives to alternative rates in accordance with regulatory expectations. As part of the Program, we continue to engage with industry associations on ongoing developments, and continue to incorporate these into our project plan and make information available to our clients, advising them on recent developments. The Program provides regular updates to senior management, including the Executive Committee, and the Board.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special Assessment
On November 16, 2023, the FDIC Board of Directors approved the final ruling to implement a special assessment on certain insured U.S. depository institutions to recover the cost associated with protecting uninsured depositors following the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. The special assessment was set at an annual rate of approximately 13.4 basis points of an insured depository institution’s estimated uninsured deposits as of December 31, 2022, adjusted to exclude the first US$5 billion applicable to the insured depository institution, originally for an anticipated total of eight quarterly assessment periods. The special assessment is subject to adjustment by the FDIC based on the losses incurred from the receivership process. The special assessment will be collected beginning with the first quarterly assessment period of 2024 (i.e., January 1 through March 31, 2024, with an invoice payment date of June 28, 2024). Our U.S. depository institution, CIBC Bank USA, is subject to this special assessment and recognized a pre-tax charge of $91 million (US$67 million) in the first quarter of 2024, and an additional pre-tax charge of $13 million (US$10 million) in the second quarter of 2024 based on revised expectations of the total amount that will be payable.

Allowance for credit losses
Under International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9, allowance for credit losses represents 12 months of expected credit losses (ECL) for instruments that have not been subject to a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, while allowance for credit losses represents lifetime ECL for instruments that have been subject to a significant increase in credit risk, including impaired instruments. ECL allowances for loans and acceptances are included in Allowance for credit losses on the consolidated balance sheet. ECL allowances for fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) debt securities are included as a component of the carrying value of the securities, which are measured at fair value. ECL allowances for other financial assets are included in the carrying value of the instrument. ECL allowances for guarantees and loan commitments are included in Other liabilities.
Allowance for credit losses are adjusted for provisions for (reversals of) credit losses and are reduced by write-offs, net of recoveries.
Amortized cost
The amount at which a financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition minus repayments, plus or minus any unamortized origination date premiums or discounts, plus or minus any basis adjustments resulting from a fair value hedge, and minus any reduction for impairment (directly or through the use of an allowance account). The amount of a financial asset or liability measured at initial recognition is the cost of the financial asset or liability including capitalized transaction costs and deferred fees.
Assets under administration (AUA)
Assets administered by CIBC that are beneficially owned by clients and are, therefore, not reported on the consolidated balance sheet. The services provided by CIBC are of an administrative nature, such as safekeeping of securities, client reporting and record keeping, collection of investment income, and the settlement of purchase and sale transactions. In addition, assets under management (AUM) amounts are included in the amounts reported under AUA.
Assets under management (AUM)

An entity that is licensed to operate as a CCP and is permitted by the appropriate regulator or oversight body to operate as such with respect to the products offered by that CCP.
Qualifying revolving retail
This exposure class includes credit cards, unsecured lines of credit and overdraft protection products extended to individuals. Under the standardized approach, these exposures would be included under “other retail”.
Real estate secured personal lending
This exposure class includes residential mortgages and home equity loans and lines of credit extended to individuals.
Regulatory capital
Regulatory capital, as defined by OSFI’s CAR Guideline, is comprised of CET1, Additional Tier 1 (AT1) and Tier 2 capital. CET1 capital includes common shares, retained earnings, AOCI (excluding AOCI relating to cash flow hedges and changes in fair value option liabilities attributable to changes in own credit risk) and qualifying instruments issued by a consolidated banking subsidiary to third parties, less regulatory adjustments for items such as goodwill and other intangible assets, certain deferred tax assets, net assets related to defined benefit pension plans, and certain investments. AT1 capital primarily includes NVCC preferred shares, Limited Recourse Capital Notes, and qualifying instruments issued by a consolidated subsidiary to third parties. Tier 1 capital is comprised of CET1 plus AT1. Tier 2 capital includes NVCC subordinated indebtedness, eligible general allowances, and qualifying instruments issued by a consolidated subsidiary to third parties. Total capital is comprised of Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital. Qualifying regulatory capital instruments must be capable of absorbing loss at the point of non-viability of the financial institution.
Repo-style transactions exposure
The amount of credit risk exposure resulting from our securities bought or sold under resale agreements, as well as securities borrowing and lending activities.
Reputation risk
The risk of negative publicity regarding CIBC’s business conduct or practices which, whether true or not, could significantly harm CIBC’s reputation as a leading financial institution, or could materially and adversely affect CIBC’s business, operations, or financial condition.
Resecuritization
A securitization exposure in which the risk associated with an underlying pool of exposures is tranched and at least one of the underlying exposures is a securitization exposure.
Retail portfolios
A category of exposures that primarily includes consumer but also small business lending, where the primary basis of adjudication relies on credit-scoring models.
Risk-weighted assets (RWA)
RWA consist of three components: (i) RWA for credit risk, which are calculated using the IRB and standardized approaches, (ii) RWA for market risk, and (iii) RWA for operational risk. The IRB RWA are calculated using PDs, LGDs, EADs, and in some cases maturity adjustments, while the standardized approach applies risk weighting factors specified in the OSFI guidelines to on- and off-balance sheet exposures. Beginning the first quarter of 2024, the RWA for market risk in the trading portfolio is based on standardized capital requirements defined by OSFI. Prior to the first quarter of 2024, the RWA for market risk in the trading portfolio were based on internal models approved by OSFI with the exception of the RWA for traded securitization assets where we were using the methodology defined by OSFI. The RWA for operational risk, which relate to the risk of losses resulting from people, inadequate or failed internal processes, and systems or from external events, are calculated under a standardized approach.
Since the introduction of Basel II in 2008, OSFI has prescribed a capital floor requirement for institutions that use the IRB approach for credit risk. The capital floor is determined by applying an adjustment factor specified by OSFI to the capital requirement calculated by reference to standardized approach. Any shortfall in the IRB capital requirement is added to RWA.
Securitization
The process of selling assets (normally financial assets such as loans, leases, trade receivables, credit card receivables or mortgages) to trusts or other SEs. A SE normally issues securities or other forms of interests to investors and/or the asset transferor, and the SE uses the proceeds from the issue of securities or other forms of interest to purchase the transferred assets. The SE will generally use the cash flows generated by the assets to meet the obligations under the securities or other interests issued by the SE, which may carry a number of different risk profiles.
Simple, transparent and comparable (STC) securitizations
Securitization exposures satisfying a set of regulatory STC criteria. Such exposures qualify for a preferential capital treatment under the securitization framework.

Standardized approach for credit risk
Applied to exposures when there is not sufficient information to allow for the use of the AIRB approach for credit risk. Credit risk capital requirements are calculated based on a standardized set of risk weights as prescribed in the CAR Guideline.

Notes to the interim consolidated financial statements
(Unaudited)
The interim consolidated financial statements of CIBC are prepared in accordance with Section 308(4) of the
Bank Act
(Canada), which states that, except as otherwise specified by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI), the financial statements are to be prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). There are no accounting requirements of OSFI that are exceptions to IFRS.
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and do not include all of the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements. Except as indicated below, these interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as CIBC’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended October 31, 2023.
All amounts in these interim consolidated financial statements are presented in millions of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated. These interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 29, 2024.
Note 1. Changes in accounting policies
a) Retrospective application of new standards
IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” (IFRS 17)
CIBC adopted IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” as at November 1, 2023, in place of IFRS 4 “Insurance Contracts” (IFRS 4). IFRS 17 provides comprehensive guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts we issue and reinsurance contracts we hold. We applied IFRS 17 on a retrospective basis beginning on November 1, 2023, with the restatement of the 2023 comparative periods. We recognized an after-tax reduction of $56 million to retained earnings at the beginning of the comparative year November 1, 2022, due to the adoption of IFRS 17.
IFRS 17 requires groups of insurance contracts to be established and measured on the basis of fulfilment cash flows using the measurement models outlined by the standard. Insurance contracts under the General Measurement Model (GMM) are measured based on the present value of fulfilment cash flows, a risk adjustment for non-financial risks, and a contractual service margin (CSM) representing our unearned profits on a portfolio basis, further disaggregated into profitability groups. We have applied GMM to our insurance contracts with contract boundaries exceeding a year. Contracts under the Premium Allocation Approach (PAA) are measured on the basis of premiums received and related cash flows, which has been applied to our insurance contracts with contract boundaries shorter than one year. Under both measurement models, we have measured the liability for incurred claims on the basis of fulfilment cash flows relating to claims incurred.
On transition, we applied the full retrospective approach to transition contracts with contract boundaries shorter than one year, which constitutes the majority of our insurance business. The full retrospective approach required us to measure the insurance contracts as if IFRS 17 had always been applied. We applied the fair value approach to transition contracts with contract boundaries exceeding a year and to which we were unable to apply the full retrospective approach. Under the fair value approach, we determined the CSM of the liability for remaining coverage as at the transition date, as the difference between the fair value of the group of insurance contracts and the fulfilment cash flows measured at that date. Upon adoption, no reclassifications were made to our financial assets under IFRS 9.
The impacted lines on the opening November 1, 2022 consolidated balance sheet as a result of the retrospective application of IFRS 17 were as follows:

As part of the adoption of IFRS 17, we present our insurance results as part of Income from insurance activities, net (formerly Insurance fees, net of claims). The adoption of IFRS 17 resulted in an increase in Net income before tax of $9 million and an increase in Income taxes of $3 million for the year ended October 31, 2023. There was an increase in Net income before taxes of $2 million and an increase in Income taxes of $1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2023, and an increase in Net income before taxes of $4 million and an increase in Income taxes of $2 million for the six months ended April 30, 2023.

b) Prospective application of new standards
International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules – Amendments to IAS 12 “Income Taxes” (IAS 12)
On May 23, 2023, the IASB issued “International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules”, which amended IAS 12 to provide temporary relief from the accounting and disclosure for deferred taxes arising from the implementation of Pillar Two Model Rules. CIBC has applied this exception to recognizing and disclosing deferred taxes related to Pillar Two income taxes. Further amendments to IAS 12 require additional disclosures as of CIBC’s fiscal year beginning November 1, 2023, for the periods where the Pillar Two legislation has been enacted or substantively enacted but is not yet in effect, as reflected in Note 11 to our interim consolidated financial statements.
c) Future accounting policy changes
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” (IFRS 18)
On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements”, which replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”. IFRS 18 is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, which for CIBC will be for the fiscal year beginning November 1, 2027, with the requirement to restate comparative financial periods. Early adoption is permitted. IFRS 18 is a result of the IASB’s Primary Financial Statements project, which aimed to improve the comparability and transparency of communication in financial statements. It introduces a number of new requirements including a more structured consolidated statement of income, new disclosure for certain management-defined performance measures and new guidance on how to aggregate and disaggregate information on the face of the consolidated financial statements and notes. We are currently evaluating the impact that adopting this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Significant estimates and assumptions
As disclosed in our 2023 Annual Report, the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recognized and measured amounts of assets, liabilities, net income, comprehensive income and related disclosures. Significant estimates and assumptions are made in the areas of the valuation of financial instruments, allowance for credit losses, the evaluation of whether to consolidate structured entities, leases, asset impairment, income taxes, provisions and contingent liabilities, post-employment and other long-term benefit plan assumptions and valuation of self-managed loyalty points programs. We continue to operate in an uncertain macroeconomic environment which gives rise to heightened uncertainty as it relates to accounting estimates and assumptions and increases the need to apply judgment in evaluating the economic and market environment and its impact on significant estimates.
The need to apply judgment particularly impacts estimates and assumptions relating to the allowance for credit losses, where significant judgment continued to be inherent in the forecasting of forward-looking information. Changes in the judgments and estimates related to IFRS 9 can have a significant impact on the level of expected credit loss (ECL) allowance recognized and the period-over-period volatility of the provision for credit losses. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Annual Report, and Note 6 to our interim consolidated financial statements for more information concerning the high level of judgment inherent in the estimation of ECL allowance.

Includes $121 million related to loans designated at FVTPL (October 31, 2023: $144 million).
(2)
Restated from amounts previously presented.
(3)
Comprises deposits designated at FVTPL of $38,335 million (October 31, 2023: $35,639 million), net bifurcated embedded derivative liabilities of $326 million (October 31, 2023: $139 million), other liabilities designated at FVTPL of $27 million (October 31, 2023: $16 million), and other
financial
liabilities measured at fair value of $167 million (October 31, 2023: $119 million).
Transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred. Transfers between levels can occur as a result of additional or new information regarding valuation inputs and changes in their observability. During the quarter ended April 30, 2024, we transferred $1,597 million of securities mandatorily measured at FVTPL from Level 1 to Level 2 and $759 million from Level 2 to Level 1, and $1,775 million of securities sold short from Level 1 to Level 2 and $2,535 million from Level 2 to Level 1, due to changes in observability in the inputs used to value these securities (for the quarter ended January 31, 2024, $394 million of securities mandatorily measured at FVTPL were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 and nil from Level 2 to Level 1, and $1,002 million of securities sold short from Level 1 to Level 2 and $551 million from Level 2 to Level 1; for the quarter ended April 30, 2023, $2,166 million of securities mandatorily measured at FVTPL were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 and $372 million from Level 2 to Level 1, $954 million of securities sold short from Level 1 to Level 2 and $22 million from Level 2 to Level 1). In addition, transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 were made during the quarters ended April 30, 2024, January 31, 2024, and April 30, 2023, primarily due to changes in the assessment of the observability of certain correlation and market volatility and probability inputs that were used in measuring the fair value of our FVO liabilities and derivatives.
The following table presents the changes in fair value of financial assets and liabilities in Level 3. These instruments are measured at fair value utilizing non-observable market inputs. We often hedge positions with offsetting positions that may be classified in a different level. As a result, the gains and losses for assets and liabilities in the Level 3 category presented in the table below do not reflect the effect of offsetting gains and losses on the related hedging instruments that are classified in Level 1 and Level 2.

Financial instruments designated at FVTPL (FVO)
A net gain of $
7
million, net of hedges for the three months ended April 30, 2024 (a net loss of $
7 
million and a net loss of $
12 
million for the three months ended January 31, 2024 and April 30, 2023, respectively), which is included in the interim consolidated statement of income under Gains (losses) from financial instruments measured/designated at FVTPL, net was recognized for FVO assets and FVO liabilities. A net result of nil, net of hedges for the six months ended April 30, 2024 was recognized for FVO assets and FVO liabilities (a net loss of $
20 million for the six months ended April 30, 2023)
.
The fair value of a FVO liability reflects the credit risk relating to that liability. For those FVO liabilities for which we believe changes in our credit risk would impact the fair value from the note holders’ perspective, the related fair value changes were recognized in OCI.

  CIBC SECOND QUARTER 2024

Inputs, assumptions and model techniques
We continue to operate in an uncertain macroeconomic environment. There is inherent uncertainty in estimating the impact that higher levels of interest rates, the easing of inflationary pressures, events in the U.S. banking sector and geopolitical events will have on the macroeconomic environment. As a result, a heightened level of judgment in estimating ECLs in respect of all these elements, as discussed below, continued to be required. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Annual Report and Note 2 to our interim consolidated financial statements for additional information concerning the significant estimates and credit judgment inherent in the estimation of ECL allowances.
The following tables provide the base case, upside case and downside case scenario forecasts for select forward-looking information variables used to estimate our ECL.

The remaining forecast period is generally four years.

National-level forward-looking forecasts are presented in the tables above, which represent the aggregation of the provincial-level forecasts used to estimate our ECL. Housing Price Index growth rates are also forecasted at the municipal level in some cases. As a result, the forecasts for individual provinces or municipalities reflected in our ECL will differ from the national forecasts presented above.
As required, the forward-looking information used to estimate ECLs reflects our expectations as at April 30, 2024, January 31, 2024, and October 31, 2023, respectively, and does not reflect changes in expectation as a result of economic forecasts that may have subsequently emerged. The base case, upside case and downside case amounts shown represent the average value of the forecasts over the respective projection horizons.
Our underlying base case projection as at April 30, 2024 is characterized by relatively slow real GDP growth in Canada as households continue to refinance mortgages at higher interest rates and cut back on discretionary purchases, and moderate growth in the U.S. which has been much more resilient to higher interest rates. Our base case continues to assume that interest rates will decline in the second half of calendar 2024, but remain at higher than pre-pandemic levels.
The downside case forecast continues to assume a recession and higher unemployment rates in Canada driven by a correction in the housing market and lower consumer spending resulting from past interest rate hikes. The downside case forecast for the U.S. assumes slow growth until the third calendar quarter of 2024 followed by a mild recession. The downside forecasts also reflect slower recoveries thereafter to lower levels of sustained economic activity and unemployment rates persistently above where they stood pre-pandemic. The upside scenario continues to reflect a better economic environment than the base case forecast.
As indicated above, forecasting forward-looking information for multiple scenarios and determining the probability weighting of the scenarios involves a high degree of management judgment. Assumptions concerning measures used by governments to combat inflation, the economic impact from higher levels of interest rates, the events in the U.S. banking sector, and geopolitical events are material to these forecasts. To address the uncertainties inherent in the current environment, we continue to utilize management overlays with respect to the impact of certain forward-looking information and credit metrics that are not expected to be as indicative of the credit condition of the portfolios as the historical experience in our models would have otherwise suggested. The use of management overlays requires the application of significant judgment that impacts the amount of ECL allowances recognized.
 
CIBC SECOND QUARTER 2024
    71  

If we were to only use our base case scenario for the measurement of ECL for our performing loans, our ECL allowance would be $259 million lower than the recognized ECL as at April 30, 2024 (October 31, 2023: $284 million). If we were to only use our downside case scenario for the measurement of ECL for our performing loans, our ECL allowance would be $851 million higher than the recognized ECL as at April 30, 2024 (October 31, 2023: $926 million). This sensitivity is isolated to the measurement of ECL and therefore did not consider changes in the migration of exposures between stage 1 and stage 2 from the determination of the significant increase in credit risk that would have resulted in a 100% base case scenario or a 100% downside case scenario. As a result, our ECL allowance on performing loans could exceed the amount implied by the 100% downside case scenario from the migration of additional exposures from stage 1 to stage 2. Actual credit losses could differ materially from those reflected in our estimates.
The following tables provide the gross carrying amount of loans, and the contractual amounts of undrawn credit facilities and other off-balance sheet exposures based on our risk management probability of default (PD) bands for retail exposures, and based on our internal risk ratings for business and government exposures. Refer to the “Credit risk” section of our 2023 Annual Report for details on the CIBC risk categories.

The table excludes debt securities measured at FVOCI, for which ECL allowances of $20 million (October 31, 2023: $22 million) were recognized in AOCI. In addition, the table excludes debt securities classified at amortized cost, for which ECL allowances of $18 million were recognized as at April 30, 2024 (October 31, 2023: $20 million). Other financial assets classified at amortized cost were also excluded from the table above as their ECL allowances were immaterial as at April 30, 2024 and October 31, 2023. Financial assets other than loans that are classified at amortized cost are presented on our interim consolidated balance sheet net of ECL allowances.
(2)
Excludes foreclosed assets of $16 million (October 31, 2023: $13 million) which were included in Other assets on our interim consolidated balance sheet.
(3)
Includes $3 million (October 31, 2023: $3 million) of residential mortgages and $647 million (October 31, 2023: $270 million) of business and government loans that are measured and designated at FVTPL.
(4)
The internal risk rating grades presented for residential mortgages and certain personal loans do not take into account loan guarantees or insurance issued by the Canadian government (federal or provincial), Canadian government agencies, or private insurers, as the determination of whether a significant increase in credit risk has occurred for these loans is based on relative changes in the loans’ lifetime PD without considering collateral or other credit enhancements.
(5)
Includes customers’ liability under acceptances of $6,130 million (October 31, 2023: $10,816 million).

On January 16, 2024, we issued $1.25 billion principal amount of 5.30% Debentures due January 16, 2034. The Debentures bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.30per annum (paid semi-annually) until January 16, 2029, and at Daily Compounded Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA) plus 2.02per annum (paid quarterly) thereafter until maturity on January 16, 2034.
Subsequent to quarter end, on May 14, 2024, we announced the redemption of $1.5 billion of our 2.95% Debentures due June 19, 2029. In accordance with their terms, the Debentures will be redeemed at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

Preferred shares and other equity instruments
Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 57 (NVCC)
 
(Series 57 shares)
On March 12, 2024, we issued 500,000 Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 57 (NVCC) (Series 57 shares) with a par value of $1,000.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $500 million. For the initial five-year period to April 12, 2029, the Series 57 shares pay semi-annual cash dividends on the 12th day of April and October in each year, as declared, at a rate of 7.337%. The first dividend, if declared, will be payable on October 12, 2024. On April 12, 2029, and on April 12 every five years thereafter, the dividend rate will reset to be equal to the then current five-year Government of Canada bond yield plus 3.90%.
Subject to regulatory approval and certain provisions of the shares, we may redeem all or any part of the then outstanding Series 57 shares at par during the period from March 12, 2029 to and including April 12, 2029 and during the period from March 12 to and including April 12 every five years thereafter.
Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 49 (NVCC)
 
(Series 49 shares)
On April 30, 2024, we redeemed all 13 million Non-cumulative Rate Reset Class A Preferred Shares Series 49 (NVCC) (Series 49
shares
), at a redemption price of $25.00 per Series 49
share
, for a total redemption cost of $325 million.

Our regulatory capital ratios are determined in accordance with the Capital Adequacy Requirements Guideline issued by OSFI, which are based on the capital standards developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. CIBC has been designated by OSFI as a domestic systemically important bank (D-SIB) in Canada, and is subject to a CET1 surcharge equal to 1.0% of RWA. OSFI also expects D-SIBs to hold a Domestic Stability Buffer (DSB) of 3.5%, which was increased from 3.0% effective November 1, 2023. The resulting targets established by OSFI for D-SIBs, including all buffer requirements, for the CET1, Tier 1, and Total capital ratios are 11.5%, 13.0%, and 15.0%, respectively.
To supplement risk-based capital requirements, OSFI expects federally regulated deposit-taking institutions to have a leverage ratio, which is a non-risk-based capital metric, that meets or exceeds 3.5%, including a 0.5% D-SIB buffer.
Under the TLAC guideline, OSFI also requires D-SIBs to maintain a supervisory target TLAC ratio (which builds on the risk-based capital ratios) and a minimum TLAC leverage ratio (which builds on the leverage ratio). OSFI expects D-SIBs to have a minimum risk-based TLAC ratio of 21.5% plus the then applicable DSB requirement (3.5% as noted above), and a minimum TLAC leverage ratio of 7.25%.
These targets may be higher for certain institutions at OSFI’s discretion. During the quarter ended April 30, 2024, we have complied with OSFI’s regulatory capital, leverage ratio, and TLAC requirements.

Note 11. Income taxes
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has reassessed CIBC’s 2011–2018 taxation years for approximately $1,772 million of income taxes and proposed to reassess the 2019 taxation year for approximately $75
million related to the denial of deductions of certain dividends. Subsequent taxation years may also be similarly reassessed. CIBC filed a Notice of Appeal in respect of its 2011 taxation year to put the matter in litigation. CIBC is confident that its tax filing positions are appropriate and intends to defend itself vigorously. Accordingly, no amounts have been accrued in the interim consolidated financial statements.
In November 2021, the Tax Court of Canada decided against CIBC on its claim of a foreign exchange capital loss and CIBC appealed the decision to the Federal Court of Appeal. In May 2023, CIBC lost its appeal at the Federal Court of Appeal. The impact of the Federal Court of Appeal decision was recognized in the second quarter of 2023, as were offsets from other adjustments. In August 2023, CIBC filed a leave to appeal application with the Supreme Court of Canada. In February 2024, the Supreme Court of Canada dismissed our application, with no further impact to our reported results, and the matter is now considered closed. The potential aggregate exposure in respect of other similar matters is approximately $74 
million, and no amounts have been accrued in the interim consolidated financial statements.
In prior years, the CRA issued reassessments disallowing the deduction of Enron settlement payments and related legal expenses (the Enron expenses). The CRA later entered into a settlement agreement with CIBC in respect to the portion of the Enron expenses deductible in Canada. CIBC has been working with the Internal Revenue Service to settle the portion of the Enron expenses deductible in the U.S. It is possible that adjustments may be required to the amount of tax benefits recognized in the U.S.
On November 28, 2023, the Canadian federal government tabled Bill C-59 in Parliament, which includes certain tax measures from the 2023 fall economic statement and 2023 federal budget. Bill C-59 includes the denial of the dividends received deduction in respect of Canadian shares held as mark-to-market property, as well as a 2% tax on certain share buy backs. The application date for these measures is January 1, 2024. Bill C-59 was not substantively enacted as at April 30, 2024, and is therefore not reflected in the reported income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended April 30, 2024.

On May 28, 2024, Parliament completed third reading of Bill C-59. As a result, the proposal to deny the dividends received deduction for banks was substantively enacted as of that date and will be reflected in the reported income tax expense for the third quarter ended July 31, 2024.
On May 2, 2024, the Canadian federal government tabled Bill C-69 for first reading in Parliament. Bill C-69 includes certain provisions of the Canadian federal budget tabled on April 16, 2024, as well as a revised Global Minimum Tax Act (GMTA), which differs in part from the GMTA released by the Canadian federal government on August 4, 2023. The GMTA will implement rules in Canada for a 
15% global minimum tax regime as part of Canada’s agreement to adopt the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Pillar Two regime for a global minimum tax. Pillar Two rules are in different stages of adoption globally. Certain countries in which CIBC operates have enacted Pillar Two legislation, however, the legislation is not yet in effect in those countries. The GMTA is expected to be enacted in 2024 and with application as of CIBC’s 2025 fiscal year. CIBC is currently reviewing the latest draft of the GMTA in Bill C-69 and evaluating its impact on our global operations, which impact is not yet reasonably estimable at this time.

Note 13. Contingent liabilities and provisions
Legal proceedings and other contingencies
In the ordinary course of its business, CIBC is a party to a number of legal proceedings, including regulatory investigations, in which claims for substantial monetary damages are asserted against CIBC and its subsidiaries. Legal provisions are established if, in the opinion of management, it is both probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to resolve the matter, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the reliable estimate of probable loss involves a range of potential outcomes within which a specific amount appears to be a better estimate, that amount is accrued. If no specific amount within the range of potential outcomes appears to be a better estimate than any other amount, the mid-point in the range is accrued. In some instances, however, it is not possible either to determine whether an obligation is probable or to reliably estimate the amount of loss, in which case no accrual can be made.
While there is inherent difficulty in predicting the outcome of legal proceedings, based on current knowledge and in consultation with legal counsel, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, individually or in aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our interim consolidated financial statements. However, the outcome of these matters, individually or in aggregate, may be material to our operating results for a particular reporting period. We regularly assess the adequacy of CIBC’s litigation accruals and make the necessary adjustments to incorporate new information as it becomes available.
The provisions disclosed in Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report included all of CIBC’s accruals for legal matters as at that date, including amounts related to the significant legal proceedings described in that note and to other legal matters, except for income tax examinations and disputes, which are addressed in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report and Note 11 to our interim consolidated financial statements.
CIBC considers losses to be reasonably possible when they are neither probable nor remote. It is reasonably possible that CIBC may incur losses in addition to the amounts recorded when the loss accrued is the mid-point of a range of reasonably possible losses, or the potential loss pertains to a matter in which an unfavourable outcome is reasonably possible but not probable.
CIBC believes the estimate of the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses, in excess of the amounts accrued, for its significant legal proceedings, where it is possible to make such an estimate, is from nil to approximately $0.6 billion as at April 30, 2024. This estimated aggregate range of reasonably possible losses is based upon currently available information for those significant proceedings in which CIBC is involved, taking into account CIBC’s best estimate of such losses for those cases for which an estimate can be made. CIBC’s estimate involves significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings and the existence of multiple defendants in many of such proceedings whose share of the liability has yet to be determined. The range does not include potential punitive damages. The matters underlying the estimated range as at April 30, 2024, consist of the significant legal matters disclosed in Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report as updated below. The matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual losses may vary significantly from the current estimate. For certain matters, CIBC does not believe that an estimate can currently be made as many of them are in preliminary stages and certain matters have no specific amount claimed. Consequently, these matters are not included in the range.
