Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (SMFG) is offering U.S. dollar-denominated perpetual subordinated Additional Tier 1 (AT1) notes under its existing shelf registration. The notes pay fixed interest to December 5, 2036, then reset every five years to the U.S. Treasury Rate plus a margin, and are deeply subordinated obligations.

SMFG may redeem them only on specified reset dates or upon certain tax or regulatory events, and any redemption is subject to prior Japanese regulatory confirmation. Principal is exposed to three loss-absorption mechanisms: (i) a Non‑Viability Event or (ii) a Bankruptcy Event, in each case triggering a full, permanent write‑down and cancellation; and (iii) a Capital Ratio Event, if SMFG’s consolidated CET1 ratio falls below 5.125%, causing a going‑concern write‑down that can reduce principal to as low as US$0.01 per US$1,000.
SMFG can cancel interest at its sole discretion at any time, and must cancel interest when Japanese corporate law distributable amounts are insufficient. Cancelled interest is non‑cumulative.

The securities carry extensive selling, tax and retail‑distribution restrictions in Japan, the EEA, the U.K. and Singapore.
