[1] In addition to the changes discussed above, in conjunction with HSBC's adoption of the requirements of IFRS 9 we also adopted changes in presentation under the Group Reporting Basis related to affiliate loans and deposits as well as cash collateral posted and received. Beginning January 1, 2018, affiliate loans have been reclassified from other assets to loans, affiliate deposits have been reclassified from other liabilities to deposits, cash collateral posted has been reclassified from loans to other assets and cash collateral received has been reclassified from deposits to other liabilities. As a result of these changes, total loans, net and total deposits in the GB&M segment increased $0.2 billion and $8.6 billion, respectively, and total loans, net and total deposits in the CC segment decreased $2.0 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2018.
