NOTE—The New Zealand Government and local authority
securities and other investments are all redeemable at par at fixed
dates. Whilst in the ordinary course of business, some realisation of
the bank’s investment in these securities may prove advantageous
at prices less than book values shown, it is the opinion of the directors
that existing reserves would be more than adequate to cover any
contingency that may arise.

On behalf of the Board:
T. L. WEBB, Director.
