Independent Auditors’ Review Report

Based on a report originally issued in Korean

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Shinhan Financial Group Co.,Ltd.:

Reviewed Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements of Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. (the “Company”), which comprise the condensed separate interim statement of financial position as of June 30, 2024, the condensed separate interim statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the condensed separate interim statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and notes, comprising a summary of material accounting policy information and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these condensed separate interim financial statements in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”) No.1034 Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Review Responsibility

Our responsibility is to issue a report on these condensed separate interim financial statements based on our reviews.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Review Standards for Quarterly and Semiannual Financial Statements established by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with K-IFRS No.1034 Interim Financial Reporting.

Other Matters

The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to review such condensed separate interim financial statements may differ from those generally accepted and applied in other countries.

The separate statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the related separate statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, which are not accompanying this report, were audited by us in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and our report thereon, dated March 4, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion. The accompanying separate statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, presented for comparative purposes, is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited separate statement of financial position from which it has been derived.

KPMG Samjong Accounting Corp.

    This report is effective as of August 14, 2024, the review report date. Certain subsequent events or circumstances, which may occur between the review report date and the time of reading this report, could have a material impact on the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the readers of the review report should understand that there is a possibility that the above review report may have to be revised to reflect the impact of such subsequent events or circumstances, if any.

SHINHAN FINANCIAL GROUP CO., LTD.

Notes to the Separate Interim Financial Statements

June 30, 2024 and 2023 (Unaudited), and December 31, 2023

1. Reporting entity

Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "the Company") was established on September 1, 2001 for the main business purposes such as control and management of companies operating in the financial industry, and financial support for subsidiaries. In addition, the stocks were listed on the Korea Exchange on September 10, 2001, and the Company was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 16, 2003, and on the same date, ADS (American Depositary Shares) was listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

2. Basis of preparation

(a)

Statement of compliance

The Company maintains its accounting records in Korean won and prepares statutory financial statements in the Korean language (Hangul) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the Republic of Korea (K-IFRS). The accompanying separate interim financial statements have been condensed, restructured and translated into English from the Korean language financial statements.

The separate interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards (“K-IFRS”), as prescribed in the Act on External Audit of Stock Companies of the Republic of Korea. These separate interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with K-IFRS No.1034, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ as part of the period covered by the Company’s K-IFRS annual financial statements and contain less information than required in the annual separate financial statements. Selective comments include a description of transactions or events that are significant in understanding the changes in the financial position and management performance of the Company that occurred after December 31, 2023.

The separate interim financial statements of the Company are separate financial statements prepared in accordance with K-IFRS No. 1027 ‘Separate Financial Statements’, in which the controlling company, investors in associates or joint ventures account for their investments on the basis of direct equity investments, not on the investee’s reported performance and net assets.

(b) Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of the separate interim financial statements in conformity with K-IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses. If the estimates and assumptions based on management's judgment as of the end of the interim reporting period differ from the actual circumstances, the related actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions about estimates are continually reviewed, and changes in accounting estimates are recognized for the period in which the estimates are changed and the period to be affected in the future. Income tax expense in the interim period is measured by applying the expected annual income tax rate, i.e. the estimated average annual effective income tax rate.

In preparing the separate interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the separate financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 except for the method of estimation used to determine the income tax expense for the interim period.

SHINHAN FINANCIAL GROUP CO., LTD.

Notes to the Separate Interim Financial Statements

June 30, 2024 and 2023 (Unaudited), and December 31, 2023

3. Significant accounting policies

(a) The Company applies the same accounting policies applied as when preparing the annual separate financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the following amendments that have been applied for the first time since January 1, 2024 and as described in Note 2(b).

i) Amendment to K-IFRS No. 1001 'Presentation of Financial Statements' - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current

The amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current should be based on the substantive rights existing at the end of the reporting period and that the classification is unaffected by management’s intentions or expectations about whether the company will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability. The amendments also introduce a definition of settlement to make clear that settlement includes the transfer to the counterparty of the company's own equity instruments, however, it would be excluded if an option to settle the liability by the transfer of the company’s own equity instruments is recognized separately from the liability in compound financial instruments. There is no significant impact on the separate financial statements from these amendments.

ii) Amendments to K-IFRS No. 1007, ‘Cash Flow Statement’ and K-IFRS No. 1107 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ - Supplier Finance Arrangements

The amendments add to the disclosure objectives in K-IFRS 1007, ‘Cash Flow Statement,’ that information about supplier finance arrangements should be disclosed to enable users of financial statements to assess the impact of those arrangements on the Company’s liabilities and cash flows. The amendments also amend K-IFRS 1107, ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures,’ to add supplier finance arrangements as an example of a requirement to disclose information about an entity’s exposure to concentrations of liquidity risk. There is no significant impact on the separate financial statements from these amendments.

iii) The following new and amended standards are not expected to have a significant impact on the separate financial statements.

- Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (the K-IFRS 1116 'lease')

- Disclosure of Virtual Assets (the K-IFRS 1001 'Financial statement presentation')

(b)

As of June 30, 2024, the newly enacted and disclosed but not yet effective new K-IFRS are as follows:

i) Amendment to K-IFRS No. 1021 'Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates' and No. 1101 ‘First-time adoption of K-IFRS’ – Lack of Exchangeability

These amendments define scenarios where exchanges with other currencies are considered possible for accounting purposes, clarify the assessment of exchangeability with other currencies, and specify requirements for estimating and disclosing the spot exchange rate in cases where no exchangeability exists. If exchange with other currencies is not possible, the spot exchange rate must be estimated on the measurement date using observable exchange rates without adjustment or employing alternative estimation techniques. These amendments are set for prospective application to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025, with early application permitted. The company is currently assessing the impacts of these amendments on the separate financial statements.

These risks are recognized, measured, controlled and reported in accordance with the basic risk management policies established by the controlling company and each subsidiary.

i) Risk management principles

The Group's risk management principles are as follows.

- All sales activities should be carried out in consideration of the balance between risk and profit within the preset risk propensity.

- The parent company presents best practices for group risk management, supervises compliance, and has responsibility and authority for monitoring at the group level.

ii) Risk management organization

The Group's basic policies and strategies for risk management are established by the Risk Management Committee (hereinafter referred to as the “Group Risk Management Committee”) within the Board of Directors of the controlling company. The Group's Chief Risk Management Officer (CRO) assists the Group Risk Management Committee and discusses risk policies and strategies of the group and each subsidiary through the Group Risk Council, which consists of each subsidiary's Chief Risk Management Officer.

(a) Overview (continued)

The members shall be chaired by the risk management officer of the group and shall be comprised of the risk management officer of the major subsidiaries.

iii) Risk management framework

iii-1) Risk Capital Management

Risk capital refers to capital required to compensate for losses in case of a potential risk being realized, and risk capital management refers to the process of asset management based on considerations of its risk appetite, which is a datum point on the level of risk burden compared to available capital. As part of the Group’s risk capital management, the Group has adopted and maintains various risk planning processes and reflects such risk planning in the Group’s business and financial planning. The Group also has adopted and maintains a risk limit management system control risk to an appropriate level.

iii-2) Risk monitoring

The Group proactively manages risks by periodically identifying risk factors that may affect the group’s business environment, through a multidimensional risk monitoring system. Each subsidiary is required to report to the Company any factors that could have a material impact on the group-level risk management, and the Company prepares weekly, monthly and occasional monitoring reports to report to Group management including the CRO.

In addition, the Group performs preemptive risk management through a “Risk Dashboard” under which the Group closely monitors any increase in asset size, risk levels and sensitivity to external factors with respect to the major asset portfolios of each subsidiary, and to the extent such monitoring yields any warning signals, the Group promptly analyze the causes and, if necessary, formulates and implements actions in response to these warning signals.

iii-3) Risk review

When promoting new products and new businesses and changing major policies, risk factors are reviewed by a pre-defined checklist to block reckless promotion of businesses that are not easy to judge risks and support rational decision-making.

The risk management departments of all subsidiaries are required to review all new businesses, products and services prior to their launch and closely monitor the development of any related risks following their launch, and in the case of any action that involves more than one subsidiary, the relevant risk management departments are required to consult with the risk management team at the controlling company level prior to making any independent risk reviews.

iii-4) Crisis management

The Group maintains a group wide risk management system to detect the signals of any risk crisis and, in the event of a crisis actually happening, to respond on a timely, efficient and flexible basis so as to maintain sustainable organization. Each subsidiary maintains crisis planning for four levels of contingencies, namely, “cautious’, “alert”, “imminent crisis” and “crisis”, determination of which is made based on quantitative and qualitative monitoring and consequence analysis, and upon the happening of any such contingency, is required to respond according to a prescribed contingency plan. At the controlling company level, the Company maintains and installs crisis detection and response system which is applied consistently group-wide, and if it is deemed necessary

(b) Credit risk

i) Credit risk management

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and investment securities. The Company’s credit risk management encompasses all areas of credit that may result in potential economic loss, including not just transactions that are recorded on balance sheets, but also off-balance-sheet transactions such as guarantees, loan commitments and derivative transactions.

< Techniques, assumptions and input variables used to measure impairment>

i-1) Determining significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When making the assessment, the Company uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable information that represents a significant increase in credit risk after initial recognition, under without excessive cost or effort. This information includes default experience data held by the Company and analysis by internal credit rating experts.

i-1-1) Measuring the risk of default

The Company assigns an internal credit risk rating to each individual exposure based on observable data and historical experiences that have been found to have a reasonable correlation with the risk of default. The internal credit risk rating is determined by considering both qualitative and quantitative factors that indicate the risk of default, which may vary depending on the nature of the exposure and the type of borrower.

i-1-2) Measuring term structure of probability of default

Internal credit rate is a key input variable for determining term structure of probability of default. The Company accumulates information after analyzing the information regarding exposure to credit risk and default information by the type of product and borrower and results of internal credit risk assessment. For some portfolios, the Company uses information obtained from external credit rating agencies when performing these analyses. The Company applies statistical techniques to estimate the probability of default for the remaining life of the exposure from the accumulated data and to predict the variation of the estimated default rate over time.

i-1-3) Significant increases in credit risk

The Company uses the indicators defined as per portfolio to determine the significant increase in credit risk, and such indicators generally consist of changes in the risk of default, qualitative factors, days of delinquency and others estimated from changes in the internal credit rating.

i) Credit risk management (continued)

i-2) Risk of default

The Company considers a financial asset to be in default if it meets one or more of the following conditions:

- if a borrower is overdue by 90 days or more from the contractual payment date

- if the Company judges that it is not possible to recover principal and interest without enforcing the collateral on a financial asset

The Company uses the following indicators when determining whether a borrower is in default:

- qualitative factors (e.g. breach of contract terms)

- quantitative factors (e.g. If the same borrower does not perform more than one payment obligations to the Company, the number of days past due per payment obligation. However, in the case of a specific portfolio, the Company uses the number of days past due for each financial instrument)

- internal data and external data

The definition of default applied by the Company generally conforms to the definition of default defined for regulatory capital management purposes; however, the information used to determine whether or not to default and the utilization of each information may vary depending on the situation.

i-3) Reflection of forward-looking information

The Company reflects forward-looking information presented by internal experts based on a variety of information when measuring expected credit losses. For the purpose of estimating this forward-looking information, the Company utilizes the economic outlook published by domestic and overseas research institutes or government and public agencies.

The Company identified the key macroeconomic variables needed to forecast credit risk and credit losses for each portfolio by analyzing data obtained from past experience and drew correlations across credit risk for each variable. After that, the Company reflected the forward-looking information through regression estimation.


Key macroeconomic variables		Correlation with credit risk
GDP growth rate		(-)
Private consumption index growth rate		(-)
Index of equipment investment growth rate		(-)
Consumer price index growth rate		(+)
Balance on current account		(-)

The predicted correlations between the macroeconomic variables and the risk of default used by the Company are derived based on the data from the past more than ten years.

i-4) Measurement of expected credit losses

Key variables used in measuring expected credit losses are as follows:

- Probability of default (“PD”)

- Loss given default (“LGD”)

- Exposure at default (“EAD”)

These variables have been estimated from historical experience data by using the statistical techniques developed internally by the Company and have been adjusted to reflect forward-looking information.

Estimates of PD over a specified period are estimated by reflecting characteristics of counterparties and their exposure, based on a statistical model at a specific point of time. The Company uses its own information to develop a statistical credit assessment model used for the estimation, and additional information observed in the market is considered for some portfolios such as a group of large corporates. When a counterparty or exposure is concentrated in specific grades, the method of measuring PD for those grades would be adjusted, and the PD by grade is estimated by considering contract expiration of the exposure.

LGD refers to the expected loss if a borrower defaults. The Company calculates LGD based on the experience recovery rate measured from past default exposures. The model for measuring LGD is developed to reflect type of collateral, seniority of collateral, type of borrower, and cost of recovery. In particular, LGD for retail loan products uses loan to value (LTV) as a key variable. The recovery rate reflected in the LGD calculation is based on the present value of recovery amount, discounted at the effective interest rate.

EAD refers to the expected exposure at the time of default. The Company derives EAD reflecting a rate at which the current exposure is expected to be used additionally up to the point of default within the contractual limit. EAD of financial assets is equal to the total carrying amount of the asset, and EAD of loan commitments or financial guarantee contracts is calculated as the sum of the amount expected to be used in the future.

In measuring expected credit losses on financial assets, the Company uses the contractual maturity as the period subject to expected credit loss measurement. The contractual maturity is computed taking into account the extension right held by the borrower.

Risk factors of PD, LGD and EAD are collectively estimated according to the following criteria:

- Type of products

- Internal credit risk rating

- Type of collateral

- Loan to value (“LTV”)

- Industry that the borrower belongs to

- Location of the borrower or collateral

- Days of delinquency

The criteria for classifying groups is periodically reviewed to maintain the homogeneity of the group and adjusted if necessary. The Company uses external benchmark information to supplement internal information for a particular portfolio that did not have sufficient internal data accumulated from past experience.

i-5) Write-off of financial assets

The Company writes off a portion of or entire loan or debt security for which the Company does not expect to receive its principal and interest. In general, the Company writes off the balance when it is deemed that the borrower has no sufficient resources or income to repay the principal and interest. Such determination on write-off is carried out in accordance with the internal rules of the Company and is carried out with the approval of the Financial Supervisory Service, if necessary. The Company may continue to exercise its right of collection under its own recovery policy even after the write-off of financial assets.

(d) Measurement for the fair value of financial instruments

The fair values of financial instruments being traded in an active market are determined by the published market prices of each period end. The published market prices of financial instruments being held by the Company are based on the published price of the trading agencies. If the market for a financial instrument is not active, such as OTC (Over The Counter market) derivatives, fair value is determined either by using a valuation technique or independent third-party valuation service. The Company uses a variety of evaluation methods and makes rational assumptions based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period.

The fair value of financial instruments is determined using valuation techniques; such as, a method of using recent transactions between independent parties with reasonable judgement and willingness to trade, a method of referring to the current fair value of other financial instruments that are substantially identical, discounted cash flow model and option pricing models.

The Company classifies and discloses fair value of financial instruments into the following three-level hierarchy:

 Level 1: Financial instruments measured at quoted prices from active markets are classified as fair value level 1.

 Level 2: Financial instruments measured using valuation techniques where all significant inputs are observable market data are classified as level 2.

 Level 3: Financial instruments measured using valuation techniques where one or more significant inputs are not based on observable market data are classified as level 3.

ii) The financial instruments measured at amortized cost

ii-1) The methods of measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost are as follows:


Type		Measurement methods of fair value
Due from banks		The carrying amount and the fair value for cash are identical and most of deposits are floating interest rate deposit or the next day deposit of a short-term instrument. For this reason, the carrying value approximates fair value.
Loans		The fair value of the loans is measured by discounting the expected cash flow at the market interest rate and credit risk of the borrower, etc.
Borrowings and debt securities issued		The fair value of borrowings and debt securities issued is based on the published price quotations in an active market. In case there is no data for an active market price, it is measured by discounting the contractual cash flow at the market interest rate that takes into account the residual risk.
