069Annual Report 2008


BaD anD DouBtFul DeBts, anD FinancinGBefore the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and financing and the making of allowance for doubtful debts and financing, and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts and financing had been written off and that adequate allowance had been made for doubtful debts and financing.

At the date of this Report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances which would render the amounts written off for bad debts and financing, or the amount of the allowance for doubtful debts and financing in the Financial Statements of the Group and the Bank, inadequate to any substantial extent.

current assetsBefore the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ascertain that any current assets, other than debts, which were unlikely to realise in the ordinary course of business, their values as shown in the accounting records of the Group and the Bank had been written down to an amount which they might be expected so to realise.

At the date of this Report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances which would render the values attributed to current assets in the Financial Statements of the Group and the Bank misleading.

valuation MethoDsAt the date of this Report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or liabilities of the Group and the Bank misleading or inappropriate. continGent anD other liaBilitiesAt the date of this Report, there does not exist:

(a) any charge on the assets of the Group or the Bank which has arisen since the end of the financial year which secures the liability of any other person; or

(b) any contingent liability of the Group or the Bank which has arisen since the end of the financial year other than in the ordinary course of banking business.

No contingent or other liability of any company in the Group has become enforceable or is likely to become enforceable within the period of twelve months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the Directors, will or may substantially affect the ability of the Bank and its subsidiaries to meet their obligations when they fall due.

chanGe oF circuMstancesAt the date of this Report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances not otherwise dealt with in this Report or the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank, that would render any amount stated in the Financial Statements misleading.

iteMs oF an unusual natureIn opinion of the Directors:

(a) the results of the Group’s and the Bank’s operations for the financial year have not been substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature other than those disclosed in Notes 4, 50 and 56 to the Financial Statements; and

(b) except as disclosed in Note 51 to the Financial Statements, there has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this Report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely to affect substantially the results of the operations of the Group or the Bank for the financial year in which this Report is made.

Directors’ BeneFitsSince the end of the previous financial year, no Director of the Bank has received or become entitled to receive any benefit (other than the benefit included in the aggregate amount of emoluments received or due and receivable by Directors shown in Note 43 to the Financial Statements or the fixed salary as a full time employee of the Bank) by reason of a contract made by the Bank or a related corporation with the Director or with a firm of which the Director is a member or with a company in which the Director has a substantial financial interest.

Neither at the end of the financial year, nor at any time during the financial year, did there subsist any other arrangements to which the Bank is a party with the object or objects of enabling Directors of the Bank to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares in, or debentures of, the Bank or any other body corporate other than share options of the ultimate holding company.

2008 Business Plan anD strateGyThe financial year ended 31 December 2008 was a challenging year both locally and globally. During the year, the Bank continued on its transformation journey by putting in place our strategic priorities to drive higher productivity and efficiency which would brace the Bank for the challenges of an increasingly competitive environment. The Bank continued to drive the current growth direction and strengthen itself as a domestic core player and internationalise the CIMB franchise as a regional financial services group. In terms of regional capacity building, the Bank made 2 significant acquisitions in 2008. The first was the acquisition of a 19.99% stake in the Bank of Yingkou, giving the Bank a toehold into mainland China and access to its north eastern growth corridor. The second acquisition was of a 42.13% stake in BankThai Public Company Limited (“BankThai”), completing our universal banking footprint in Thailand.

outlook For 2009Uncertainty and volatility in global credit markets will continue to place upward pressure on funding costs. While the domestic economy remains resilient, credit growth is expected to moderate to slightly below the average of the past decade as the slowing in the economy impacts both consumers and businesses. The Bank will focus on growing its market share in consumer and commercial banking businesses by offering innovative financial products and services to meet our customers’ needs. We will also continue to invest in our branches network and alternative sales channels to expand reach and also improve on our quality of service. There will be further upgrading of our systems to enhance our analytical capabilities and to create a positive experience for our customers across all touch points. The underlying performance of our business and our strategic focus however provide the foundation for us to manage through these uncertain times and deliver acceptable returns for shareholders over the longer term. In this environment, the Bank recognises the need to be prudent and the importance of maintaining a strong capital base and high levels of liquidity. We expect a difficult operating environment as the impact of the global financial crisis and economic slowdown is felt in the regional and domestic markets. We nevertheless expect the Bank to continue to be a key earnings driver while we defend our strong share of regional capital market activities. A significant portion of our resources will be spent on the transformation of BankThai, as well as capturing synergies from our regional universal banking platform.

In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Bank’s preparation and fair presentation of the Financial Statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Bank’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Financial Statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

oPinionIn our opinion, the Financial Statements have been properly drawn up in accordance with the Companies Act, 1965, the MASB Approved Accounting Standards in Malaysia for Entities Other Than Private Entities and the Bank Negara Malaysia Guidelines so as to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Bank as of 31 December 2008 and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended.

Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesFor the financial year ended 31 December 2008

The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items that are considered material in relation to the Financial Statements.

a Basis oF PreParation The Financial Statements of the Group and the Bank are prepared under the historical cost convention, modified by the

revaluation of available-for-sale securities, securities held for trading, all derivative contracts, investment properties and non-current assets/disposal groups held for sale.

The Financial Statements of the Group and the Bank have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards, MASB Approved Accounting Standards in Malaysia for Entities Other Than Private Entities, Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”) Guidelines, Shariah requirements and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965.

The Financial Statements incorporate those activities relating to Islamic banking which have been undertaken by the Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad (“CIMB Islamic”) and CIMB Bank (L) Limited. Islamic banking refers generally to the acceptance of deposits, granting of financing and dealing in Islamic Securities under the Shariah principles.

BNM has granted indulgence to the Group and the Bank and other local banks in Malaysia from complying with the requirements on the impairment of loans under the revised ‘Guideline on Financial Reporting for Licensed Institutions’ (“BNM/GP8”). Paragraph 4, Appendix A of the revised BNM/GP8 requires the impaired loans to be measured at their estimated recoverable amount. This requirement is principally similar to the requirement under FRS 139 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. During the financial year, BNM issued a revised circular on BNM/GP3 which requires impaired credit facilities to be measured at their recoverable amount. This requirement supersedes paragraph 4, Appendix A of the revised BNM/GP8. In view of the deferment of the implementation of FRS 139 in Malaysia, the Group and the Bank and other local banks in Malaysia will be deemed to be in compliance with the requirement on the impairment of loans under the revised BNM/GP8 if the allowance for non-performing loans, advances and financing is computed based on BNM’s guidelines on the ‘Classification of Non-Performing Loans and Provision for Substandard, Bad and Doubtful Debts’ (“BNM/GP3”) requirements.

The preparation of Financial Statements in conformity with the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965, Financial Reporting

Standards and Bank Negara Malaysia Guidelines requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. It also requires the Directors to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the Group’s and the Bank’s accounting policies. Although these estimates and judgement are based on the Directors’ best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ from those estimates.

The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Financial Statements, are disclosed in Note 52.

(a) standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are applicable to the Group and Bank and are effective

The new accounting standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that are effective for the Group and the Bank for the financial year ended 31 December 2008 are as follows:

• Amendment to FRS 121 - The Effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates - Net Investment in a Foreign Operations

• IC Interpretation 8 - Scope of FRS 2 - Share based Payment



a Basis oF PreParation (continueD) (a) standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations that are applicable to the Group and Bank

and are effective (continued) All changes in accounting policies have been made in accordance with the transitional provisions in the respective standards,

amendments to published standards and interpretations. All standards, amendments and interpretations adopted by the Group and the Bank require retrospective application except for IC Interpretation 8 which requires retrospective application subject to the transition/provision of FRS 2. FRS 2 requires retrospective application for all equity instruments granted after 31 December 2004 and not vested at 1 January 2006.

The adoption of the new accounting standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations did not have a material impact on the Financial Statements of the Group and Bank.

(b) standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that are applicable to the Group but not yet effective

The new standards and IC Interpretations that are applicable to the Group but which the Group and the Bank have not early adopted, are as follows:

• FRS 8 Operating Segments (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009). This new standard requires a ‘management approach’, under which segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. The Group and the Bank will apply this standard when effective.

• IC Interpretation 9 Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010). IC Interpretation 9 requires an entity to assess whether an embedded derivative is required to be separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative when the entity first becomes a party to the contract. Subsequent reassessment is disallowed unless there is a change in the terms of contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that otherwise would be required under the contract, in which case reassessment is required. The Group and the Bank will apply this standard when effective.

• IC Interpretation 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment (effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010). IC Interpretation 10 prohibits the impairment losses recognised in an interim period on goodwill and investments in equity instruments and in financial assets carried at cost to be reversed at a subsequent balance sheet date. The Group and the Bank will apply this standard when effective.

• The following standards will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010. The Group will apply these standards from financial periods beginning on 1 January 2010. The Group has applied transitional provisions in the respective standards which exempts entities from disclosing the possible impact arising from the initial application of the standard in the financial statements of the Group and the Bank.

(i) FRS 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. This new standard establishes principles for recognising and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy and sell non-financial items. Hedge accounting is permitted only under strict circumstances. However, with effect from 1 January 2005, the revised BNM/GP8 has adopted certain FRS 139 principles in recognising and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities, derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting. The relevant accounting policies are set out in Notes G, M and U to the Financial Statements.

(ii) FRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures




a Basis oF PreParation (continueD)(b) standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that are applicable

to the Group but not yet effective (continued) The adoption of the above new standards and IC Interpretations is expected not to have a material impact on the Group’s

and the Bank’s Financial Statements for the financial year ending 31 December 2009.

B econoMic entities in the GrouP(a) subsidiaries The Bank treats as subsidiaries, those corporations, partnerships or other entities (including special purpose entities) in

which the Bank has the power to exercise control over the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Bank controls another entity.

Investment in subsidiaries is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Where there is an indication of impairment, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed. A write down is made if the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

External costs directly attributable to an acquisition, other than the costs of issuing shares and other capital instruments, are included as part of the cost of acquisition.

The consolidated Financial Statements include the Financial Statements of the Bank and all its subsidiaries made up to the end of the financial year.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Subsidiaries are consolidated using the purchase method of accounting, except for business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control with agreement dates on or after 1 January 2006, which are accounted for using the pooling-of-interests method.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included from the date of acquisition up to the date of disposal. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition is reflected as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.

Minority interest represents that portion of the profit or loss and net assets of a subsidiary attributable to equity interests

that are not owned, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, by the parent. It is measured at the minorities’ share of the fair value of the subsidiaries’ identifiable assets and liabilities at the acquisition date and the minorities’ share of changes in the subsidiaries’ equity since that date.




B econoMic entities in the GrouP (continueD) (a) subsidiaries (continued)

The Directors note that business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control are outside the scope of FRS 3 - Business Combinations and that there is no guidance elsewhere in FRS covering such transactions. FRS contain specific guidance to be followed where a transaction falls outside the scope of FRS. This guidance is included in paragraphs 10 to 12 of FRS 108 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. This requires, inter alia, that where FRS does not include guidance for a particular issue, the Directors may also consider the most recent pronouncements of other standard-setting bodies that use a similar conceptual framework to develop accounting standards. In this regard, it is noted that the United States Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued an accounting standard covering business combinations (“FAS 141”) that is similar in a number of respects to FRS 3.

In contrast to FRS 3, FAS 141 does include, as an Appendix, limited accounting guidance for transactions under common control which, as with FRS 3, are outside the scope of that accounting standard. The guidance contained in FAS 141 indicates that a form of accounting that is similar to pooling-of-interests method may be used when accounting for transactions under common control.

Having considered the requirements of FRS 108 and the guidance included within FAS 141, the Directors consider appropriate to use a form of accounting which is similar to pooling-of-interests when dealing with business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control.

Under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting, the results of entities or businesses under common control are presented as if the merger had been effected throughout the current and previous years. The assets and liabilities combined are accounted for based on the carrying amounts from the perspective of the common control shareholder at the date of transfer. On consolidation, the cost of the merger is cancelled with the values of the shares received. Any resulting credit difference is classified as equity and regarded as a non-distributable reserve. Any resulting debit difference is adjusted against any suitable reserve. Any share premium, capital redemption reserve and any other reserves which are attributable to share capital of the merged enterprises, to the extent that they have not been reduced by a debit difference, are reclassified and presented as movement in other capital reserve.

All material transactions and balances between group companies are eliminated and the consolidated Financial Statements

reflect external transactions only. Where necessary, the accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Where more than one exchange transaction is involved, any adjustment to the fair values of the subsidiary’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities relating to previously held interests of the Group is accounted for as a revaluation.

The gain or loss on disposal of a subsidiary is the difference between net disposal proceeds and the Group’s share of its net assets as of the date of disposal including the cumulative amount of any exchange differences that relate to the subsidiary, and is recognised in the consolidated income statement.

(b) investment in jointly controlled entity The Group treats as a jointly controlled entity, corporations, partnerships or other entities over which there is contractually

agreed sharing of control by the Group with one or more parties where the strategic financial and operating decisions relating to the entities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.




B econoMic entities in the GrouP (continueD) (b) investment in jointly controlled entity (continued)

Investment in a jointly controlled entity is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Where there is an indication of impairment, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed. A write down is made if the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

The Group’s interest in jointly controlled entities is accounted for in the consolidated Financial Statements by the equity method of accounting.

Equity accounting involves recognising the Group’s share of the post acquisition results of the joint venture in the income statement and its share of post acquisition movements within reserves in reserves. The cumulative post acquisition movements are adjusted against the cost of the investment and include goodwill on acquisition, net of accumulated impairment loss (if any).

(c) investment in associates The Group treats as associates, corporations, partnerships or other entities in which the Group exercises significant

influence, but which it does not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the associates but not the power to exercise control over those policies. The Group’s investment in associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment loss.

Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognised at cost. The Group’s investment in associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment loss.

The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

c recoGnition oF ProFit incoMe anD interest incoMe Interest income on financial assets is recognised on an accrual basis. Interest earned on hire purchase, leasing and

block discounting agreements is spread over the terms of the loans, using the “Sum-of-Digit” method so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest. Accretion of discount and amortisation of premium for securities are recognised on an effective yield basis.

Where an account is classified as non-performing, interest accrued and recognised as income prior to the date the loans are classified as non-performing are reversed out of income and set off against the accrued interest receivable amount in the balance sheet. Subsequently, the interest earned on non-performing loans is recognised as income on a cash basis instead of being accrued and suspended at the same time as prescribed previously. Customers’ accounts are classified as non-performing where repayments are in arrears for 3 months or more from the first day of default for loans and overdrafts, and after 3 months from maturity date for trade bills, bankers’ acceptances and trust receipts.




c recoGnition oF ProFit incoMe anD interest incoMe (continueD) The Bank’s policy on recognition of interest income on loans and advances is in conformity with BNM/GP3 and the revised

BNM/GP8.

Income from Islamic banking business is recognised on an accrual basis in accordance with the principles of Shariah.

D recoGnition oF Fees anD other incoMe Loans, advances and financing arrangement fees and commissions are recognised as income when all conditions precedent

are fulfilled.

Commitment fees, guarantee fees, portfolio management fees and income from asset management and securities services which are material are recognised as income based on a time apportionment method.

Brokerage fees are recognised as income based on inception of such transactions.

Dividends are recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

e allowances For BaD anD DouBtFul DeBts anD FinancinG Specific allowances are made for doubtful debts and financing which have been individually reviewed and specifically identified

as bad or doubtful.

A general allowance based on a percentage of the loans portfolio is also made to cover possible losses which are not specifically identified.

An uncollectible loan or portion of a loan classified as bad is written off after taking into consideration the realisable value of collateral, if any, when in the judgement of the management, there is no prospect of recovery.

The Bank’s allowance for non-performing debts and financing is in conformity with the minimum requirements of BNM/GP3.

F sale anD rePurchase aGreeMents Securities purchased under resale agreements are securities which the Group and the Bank had purchased with a commitment

to re-sell at future dates. The commitment to re-sell the securities is reflected as an asset on the balance sheet.

Conversely, obligations on securities sold under repurchase agreements are securities which the Group and the Bank had sold from their portfolio, with a commitment to repurchase at future dates. Such financing transactions and the obligation to repurchase the securities are reflected as a liability on the balance sheet.

The difference between sale and repurchase price as well as purchase and resale price is treated as interest and accrued over the life of the resale/repurchase agreement using the effective yield method.

G securities The Group and the Bank classify their securities portfolio into the following categories: securities held for trading, available-for-

sale securities and held-to-maturity securities. Management determines the classification of securities at initial recognition.

(a) securities held for trading This category comprises securities held for trading and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.

Securities are classified into this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by management. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges.




G securities (continueD)(a) securities held for trading (continued) Pursuant to the amendments to the Revised BNM/GP8 guidelines, the Bank and its banking subsidiaries are now permitted

by BNM for the period from 1 July 2008 to 31 December 2009 to reclassify non-derivatives held for trading securities into held-to-maturity securities or available-for-sale securities. In the 4th quarter of 2008, the Bank and its banking subsidiaries reclassified a portion of their securities in the held for trading category to held-to-maturity category based on current market prices at the relevant dates of the reclassification. Further details of the reclassification are set out in Note 4 to these Financial Statements.

Reclassifications are made at the fair value at the date of the reclassification. The fair values of the securities becomes the new cost or amortised cost as applicable, and no reversals of fair value gains or losses recorded before the reclassification date are subsequently made. The effective interest rates for the securities reclassified to held-to-maturity category is determined at the reclassification date. Further changes in estimates of future cash flows are recognised as an adjustment to the effective interest rates.

(b) available-for-sale securities Available-for-sale securities are those intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response

to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices.

(c) held-to-maturity securities Held-to-maturity securities are non-derivative instruments with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that

the Group’s and the Bank’s management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. If the Group or the Bank sell other than an insignificant amount of held-to-maturity securities, the entire category will be tainted and reclassified as available-for-sale securities.

Securities are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all securities not carried at fair value through profit or loss and securities not held for trading. Securities are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the securities have expired or where the Group or the Company have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

Securities held for trading and available-for-sale securities are subsequently carried at fair value, except for investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured in which case the investments are stated at cost. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the securities held for trading category are included in the income statement in the period which they arise. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value of available-for-sale securities are recognised directly in equity, until the securities are derecognised or impaired at which time the cumulative gains or loss previously recognised in equity are recognised in the income statement.

Held-to-maturity securities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Gains or losses arising from the de-recognition or impairment of the securities are recognised in the income statement.

Interest from securities held for trading, available-for-sale securities and held-to-maturity securities is calculated using the effective interest method and is recognised in the income statement. Dividends from available-for-sale equity instruments are recognised in the income statement when the entity’s right to receive payment is established.

The fair values of quoted securities are based on quoted prices in active markets. If the market for an instrument is not active and for unquoted securities, the Group and the Bank establish fair value by using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants.




h ProPerty, Plant anD equiPMent Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost

includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Freehold land is not depreciated as it has an infinite life. Other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight line basis to write off the cost of the assets to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, summarised as follows:

Building on freehold land 40 years Building on leasehold land 40 years or over the balance period of the lease, whichever is shorter Office equipment, furniture and fixtures: - office equipment 5 years - furniture and fixtures 10 years Computer equipment: - servers and hardware 3 years - ATM machine 5 years Computer equipment under lease 3 years or over the period of the lease, whichever is shorter Motor vehicles 5 years Renovations to rented premises 5 years or over the period of the tenancy, whichever is shorter Depreciation on assets under construction commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each balance sheet date and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable amount, it is written down to its recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amounts and are included in non-interest income.

i intanGiBle assets(a) Goodwill Goodwill arises on business combinations when the cost of acquisition exceeds the fair value of the Bank’s share of the

identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (“CGU”) for the purpose of impairment testing. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. Impairment testing is performed annually by comparing the present value of the CGU’s projected cash flows against the carrying amount of its net assets which include the allocated goodwill. The allocation is made to those CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination in which the goodwill arose. The Group and the Bank allocate goodwill to each business unit (Note 18).




i intanGiBle assets (continueD)(a) Goodwill (continued) Goodwill on acquisitions of associates and jointly controlled entities respectively are included in investments in associates

and jointly controlled entities. Such goodwill is tested for impairment as part of the overall balance.

Under the current applicable approved accounting standards for business combinations, FRS 3 - Business Combinations which apply to the accounting for business combinations for which the agreement date is on or after 1 January 2006, the provisions of the standard are applied prospectively and no retrospective changes in respect of accounting for business combinations prior to 1 January 2006 have been made. Under FRS 3, previously recognised negative goodwill (if any) has been derecognised with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balances of retained earnings.

(b) other intangible assets Other intangible assets include credit card customer relationships, core deposits and computer software. Other intangible

assets are initially recognised when they are separable or arise from contractual or other legal rights, the cost can be measured reliably and, in the case of intangible assets not acquired in a business combination, where it is probable that future economic benefits attributable to the assets will flow from their use. The value of intangible assets which are acquired in a business combination is generally determined using income approach methodologies. Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software.

Intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life, or are not yet ready for use, are tested for impairment annually. This impairment test may be performed at any time during the year, provided it is performed at the same time every year. An intangible asset recognised during the current period is tested before the end of the current year.

Intangible assets that have a finite useful life are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, and are amortised over their estimated useful lives.

Intangible assets are amortised over their finite useful lives as follows:

Credit card customer relationships 12 years Core deposits 8 years Computer software: - core and front-end systems 5 years - others 3 years

J assets PurchaseD unDer lease(a) Finance lease Assets purchased under lease which in substance transfers the risks and benefits of ownership of the assets to the

Group or the Bank are capitalised under property, plant and equipment. The assets and the corresponding lease obligations are recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased assets at the beginning of the lease term. Such leased assets are subject to depreciation on the same basis as other property, plant and equipment.

Leases which do not meet such criteria are classified as operating lease and the related rentals are charged to income statement as incurred.




J assets PurchaseD unDer lease (continueD)(b) operating lease Leasehold land Leasehold land that normally has an indefinite economic life and title is not expected to pass to the lessee by the end of the

lease term is treated as an operating lease. The payment made on entering into or acquiring a leasehold land is accounted as prepaid lease payments that are amortised over the lease term in accordance with the pattern of benefits provided.

Others Leases of assets under which all the risks and benefits of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating

leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the period in which termination takes place.

k assets solD unDer lease(a) Finance lease When assets are sold under a finance lease, the present value of the lease payments is recognised as a debtor. The

difference between the gross debtor and the present value of the debtor is recognised as unearned finance income. Lease income is recognised over the term of the lease using the net investment method, which reflects a constant periodic rate of return.

(b) operating lease Assets leased out under operating leases are included in property, plant and equipment in the balance sheet. They are

depreciated over their expected useful lives on a basis consistent with similar property, plant and equipment. Rental income is recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term.

l Bills anD accePtances PayaBle Bills and acceptances payable represent the Group’s or the Bank’s own bills and acceptances rediscounted and outstanding

in the market.

M Derivative Financial instruMents anD heDGe accountinG Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently

remeasured at their fair values. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active markets, including recent market transactions, and valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models and option pricing models, as appropriate. All derivatives are carried as assets when fair value is positive and as liabilities when fair value is negative. Changes in the fair value of any derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the income statement.

The best evidence of fair value of a derivative at initial recognition is the transaction price (i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or received) unless the fair value of the instrument is evidenced by comparison with other observable current market transactions in the same instrument (i.e. without modification or repackaging) or based on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from observable markets. When such evidence exists, the Group and the Bank recognise profits immediately.




M Derivative Financial instruMents anD heDGe accountinG (continueD) The method of recognising the resulting fair value gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging

instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. The Group and the Bank designate certain derivatives as either: (1) hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or firm commitments (fair value hedge) or (2) hedges of highly probable future cash flows attributable to a recognised asset or liability, or a forecasted transaction (cash flow hedge) or (3) hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation (net investment hedge). Hedge accounting is used for derivatives designated in this way provided certain criteria are met.

At the inception of the transaction, the Group and the Bank document the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as their risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group and the Bank also document their assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.

(a) Fair value hedge Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the income

statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable to the hedged risk.

If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used is amortised to the income statement over the period to maturity. The adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged equity security remains in retained earnings until the disposal of the equity security.

(b) cash flow hedge The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges

are recognised in equity. The gain and loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. Amounts accumulated in equity are recycled to the income statement in the periods in which the hedged item will affect the income statement.

When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the income statement. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the income statement.

(c) net investment hedge Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for similarly to cash flow hedges. Any gain or loss on the

hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement.

Gains and losses accumulated in the equity are included in the income statement when the foreign operation is partially disposed or sold.

(d) Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of any derivative instrument

that does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the income statement.




n BorrowinGs Borrowings are initially recognised based on the proceeds received, net of transaction costs incurred. In subsequent periods,

borrowings are stated at amortised cost using the effective yield method; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings.

Preference shares, which are mandatorily redeemable on a specific date, are classified as liabilities. The dividends on these preference shares are recognised in the income statement as interest expense.

o hire Purchase receivaBles securitisation ProGraMMe The Group through its Hire Purchase Receivables Securitisation Programme, sells undivided shares of hire purchase receivables

to a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”). The SPV will in turn issue bonds to raise funds for the purchase of assets.

The Group receives fee income for various services provided to the SPV. These fees are determined on an arms length basis and are recognised on an accrual basis. Deferred consideration/balance of hire purchase receivables obtained under this programme are held at cost and an allowance is made for any impairment loss based on the position of the SPV and its underlying assets.

P currency translations(a) Functional and presentation currency Items included in the Financial Statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary

economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated Financial Statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Group’s and the Bank’s functional and presentation currency.

(b) Foreign currency transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the

dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.

Changes in the fair value of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency classified as available-for-sale are analysed between translation differences resulting from changes in the amortised cost of the security and other changes in the carrying amount of the security. Translation differences related to changes in the amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss, and other changes in the carrying amount are recognised in equity.

Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets and liabilities, such as equity instruments held at fair value through profit or loss, are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets such as equities classified as available-for-sale are included in the available-for-sale reserve in equity.

On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operations and of borrowings and other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to shareholders’ equity. When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold, exchange differences that were recorded in equity are recognised in the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.




P currency translations (continueD)(c) Group companies The results and financial position of all the group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that

have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

• assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of the balance sheet;• income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is

not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and

• all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity.

q incoMe anD DeFerreD taxes Current tax expense is determined according to the tax laws of each jurisdiction in which the Group operates and includes all

taxes based upon the taxable profits.

Deferred income tax is recognised in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Financial Statements. However, deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax related to fair value re-measurement of available-for-sale securities, which are charged or credited directly to equity, is also credited or charged directly to equity and is subsequently recognised in the income statement together with the deferred gain or loss.

Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.

r share caPital(a) classification Ordinary shares and non-redeemable preference shares with discretionary dividends are classified as equity. Other shares

are classified as equity and/or liability according to the economic substance of the particular instrument. Distributions to holders of a financial instrument classified as an equity instrument are charged directly to equity.

(b) share issue costs Incremental external costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction,

net of tax, from the proceeds.

(c) Dividends Dividends on ordinary shares are recognised as a liability when the shareholders’ right to receive the dividend is established.




s eMPloyee BeneFits(a) short term employee benefits The Group and the Bank recognise a liability and an expense for bonuses. The Group and the Bank recognise a provision

where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits are accrued in the period in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and Bank.

(b) Post employment benefits The Group and the Bank have various post-employment benefit schemes. These benefit plans are either defined

contribution or defined benefit plans.

Defined contribution plans A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group and the Bank pay fixed contributions into a separate

entity (a fund) and will have no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

The Group’s and Bank’s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the income statement in the period to

which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group and the Bank have no further payment obligations. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.

Defined benefit plans A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines an amount of pension benefit to be provided, usually as a function of

one or more factors such as age, years of services or compensation.

The liability in respect of a defined benefit plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised actuarial gains/losses and past service cost.

The Group and the Bank determine the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of any plan assets with sufficient regularity such that the amounts recognised in the Financial Statements do not differ materially from the amounts that would be determined at the balance sheet date.

The defined benefit obligation, calculated using the projected unit credit method, is determined by independent actuaries, considering the estimated future cash outflows using market yields at balance sheet date of government securities which have currency and terms to maturity that approximate the terms of the related liability.

Plan assets in excess of the defined obligation are subject to the asset limitation specified in FRS 119 - Employee Benefits.

Actuarial gains and losses arise from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions. The amount of net actuarial gains and losses recognised in the income statement is determined by the corridor method in accordance with FRS 119 and is charged or credited to income over the average remaining service lives of the related employees participating in the defined benefit plan.

Past-service costs are recognised immediately in income, unless the changes to the plan are conditional on the employees remaining in service for a specified period of time (the vesting period). In this case, the past-service costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.




s eMPloyee BeneFits (continueD)(c) other long term employee benefits The cost of long term employee benefits (for example, long term service leave) is accrued to match the rendering of the

services by the employees concerned using an accounting methodology similar to that for defined benefit plans.

(d) termination benefits Termination benefits are payable whenever an employee’s employment is terminated before the normal retirement date or

whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group and the Bank recognise termination benefits when they are demonstrably committed to either terminate the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the balance sheet date are discounted to their present value.

(e) share-based compensation benefits The equity compensation benefits of the Group comprise the following:

(i) Share options granted by the ultimate holding company under the Modified Executive Employee Share Option Scheme (“EESOS”).

As allowed in the transition provisions of FRS 2 - Share-based Payment, the Group and the Bank have elected not to apply FRS 2 to these equity instruments which were granted:

(a) before 31 December 2004(b) after 31 December 2004 but had vested before 1 January 2006

(ii) Management Equity Scheme (‘MES’).

FRS 2 only applies to transactions involving a transfer of equity instruments between shareholders and option holders, hence entitlements based on ordinary shares of the ultimate company granted under the Management Equity Scheme (‘MES’) is out of the scope of FRS 2.

t iMPairMent oF assets Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are

subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non financial assets other than goodwill that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

The impairment loss is charged to the income statement unless it reverses a previous revaluation in which case it is charged to the revaluation surplus. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversed. In respect of other assets, any subsequent increase in recoverable amount is recognised in the income statement unless it reverses an impairment loss on a revalued asset in which case it is taken to revaluation surplus.




u iMPairMent oF securities PortFolio The Group and the Bank assess at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that the securities are

impaired. A security or a group of securities is impaired and impairment losses are incurred if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the securities (a “loss event”) and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the securities that can be reliably estimated.

(a) securities carried at amortised cost If there is an objective evidence that an impairment loss on held-to-maturity instruments held at amortised cost has been

incurred, the amount of loss is measured as the difference between the securities’ carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the securities’ original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the securities is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the income statement.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account. The amount of the reversal is recognised in the income statement.

(b) securities carried at fair value In the case of equity instruments classified as available-for-sale securities, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair

value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the securities are impaired. If there is an objective evidence that an impairment loss on available-for-sale securities has been incurred, the cumulative loss - measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on the securities previously recognised in income statement - is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale securities increases and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised in the income statement, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.

v ForecloseD ProPerties Foreclosed properties are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. When an indication of impairment exists, the

carrying amount of the asset is assessed and written-down to its recoverable amount.

w Provisions Provisions are recognised by the Group and the Bank when all of the following conditions have been met:

(i) the Group and the Bank have a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events:(ii) it is probable that an outflow of resources to settle the obligation will be required; and(iii) a reliable estimate of the amount of obligation can be made.

Where the Group and the Bank expect a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.




w Provisions (continueD) Provisions are measured at the present values of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-

tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

x Dealers’ hanDlinG charGes Handling charges paid to hire purchase dealers are expensed off to the income statement.

y Zakat This represents business zakat. It is a contribution amount payable by CIMB Islamic Bank berhad (“CIMB Islamic”)to comply with

the principles of Shariah. Zakat provision is calculated based on ‘Adjusted Growth’ method, at 2.5% for individual Bumiputra shareholders of Bumiputra-Commerce Holdings Berhad, the Bank’s ultimate holding company.

Z cash anD cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand, bank balances and deposit placements maturing less than one month. aa coMPounD Financial instruMents Compound financial instruments contain both a liability and equity element. The Group’s and the Bank’s compound financial

instruments comprise Irredeemable Convertible Unsecured Loan Stocks (“ICULS”) which were issued in 2001. Pursuant to the transition provisions of FRS 132 - Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation, the classification of compound instruments into equity and liability components need to be applied only to financial instruments that are issued during reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2003. Accordingly, the ICULS continue to be classified according to their legal form i.e. as liability instruments.

On issue of a financial instrument that contains both a liability and an equity component, the fair value of the liability portion is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent financial instrument; this amount is carried as liability on the amortised cost basis until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the instrument. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option which is recognised and included in shareholders’ equity; the value of the conversion option is not changed in subsequent periods.

aB seGMent rePortinG Segment reporting is presented for enhanced assessment of the Group’s risks and returns. A business segment is a group

of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risk and returns that are different from those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment that are subject to risks and returns that are different from those components.

Segment revenue, expense, assets and liabilities are those amounts resulting from the operating activities of a segment that are directly attributable to the segment and the relevant portion that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to the segment. Segment revenue, expense, assets and segment liabilities are determined before intra-group balances and intra-group transactions are eliminated as part of the consolidation process, except to the extent that such intra-group balances and transactions are between group enterprises within a single segment.




ac non-current assets/DisPosal GrouPs helD For sale Non-current assets/disposal groups are classified as assets held for sale and stated at the lower of carrying amount and

fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount is recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use.

aD investMent ProPerties Investment properties, comprising principally land and office buildings, are held for long term rental yields or for capital

appreciation or both, and are not occupied by the Group, and the Bank.

Investment properties are stated at fair value, representing the open-market value determined annually by external valuers. Fair value is based on active market prices, adjusted, if necessary, for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. If this information is not available, the Group and the Bank use alternative valuation methods such as recent prices on less active markets or discounted cash flow projections. Changes in fair values are recorded in the income statement as part of other income.

On disposal of an investment property, or when it is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposal, it shall be derecognised (eliminated from the balance sheet). The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss in the period of the retirement or disposal.

Proton Commerce Sdn Bhd Financing of vehicles 50 50 On 22 October 2003, Bumiputra-Commerce Finance Berhad (“BCF”) entered into a joint venture agreement with Proton

Edar Sdn Bhd (“PESB”) for the purposes of building and operating a competitive vehicle financing business in Malaysia for vehicles distributed by PESB. Subsequently, a jointly controlled entity was incorporated under the name of Proton Commerce Sdn Bhd (“PCSB”) which is 50%:50% owned by BCF and PESB respectively. PCSB is primarily responsible for developing, managing and marketing hire purchase loans for vehicles sold to the customers of PESB. Pursuant to the joint venture, BCF issued RM200 million Perpetual Preference Shares (“PPS”) which were fully subscribed by PCSB. Pursuant to the vesting of the finance company business and the related assets and liabilities of BCF to the Bank and the subsequent capital reduction exercise undertaken by BCF in 2006, the BCF PPS were cancelled, and the Bank issued RM200 million PPS to PCSB.

Under the joint venture, the assets and liabilities of PCSB are recorded and accounted for by the Bank in a Special Project Account (“SPA”) for and on behalf of PCSB. The respective balances in this SPA as at balance sheet date are consolidated and reported as the assets and liabilities of the Bank.

All income and expenses arising from PCSB’s activities are recorded in the books of PCSB. At the Group, the 50% share of profit and loss from the operations of PCSB is shown as a line item in the income statement. For the 12 months period ended 2008, PCSB recorded a profit after taxation of RM6,506,098 (2007: profit after taxation of RM6,820,000) and the Group’s share of this profit is RM3,253,049 (2007: profit of RM3,410,000).

allocation of goodwill to cash-generating units Goodwill has been allocated to the following cash-generating units (“CGUs”). These CGUs do not carry any intangible assets

with indefinite useful lives.

impairment test for goodwill Value-in-use The recoverable amount of CGUs which are not classified as held for sale is determined based on value-in-use calculations.

These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on the 2009 financial budgets approved by Board of Directors, projected for 5 years based on the average to year historical Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) growth of the country covering a five year period, revised for current economic conditions. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using estimated growth rate of 5.00% (2007: 5.42%). The cash flow projections are derived based on a number of key factors including the past performance and management’s expectation of market developments. The discount rate used in determining the recoverable amount of the CGUs is 9.80% (2007: 8.43%). The discount rate is pre-tax and reflects the specific risks relating to the CGUs.

Management believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the key assumptions would cause the carrying value of any CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.




18 GooDwill (continueD) impairment test for goodwill (continued)

Fair value less costs to sell For the CGU which are associated with the proposed disposals as disclosed in Note 57, the recoverable amount is determined

based on the estimated disposal price less any costs to sell. The disposal price is determined based on the net tangible assets of the affected business as at 31 December 2008, plus a premium of RM20 million which has been agreed by both the Bank and the acquirer of the business.

impairment charge The impairment charge of RM195 million in the Bank in the previous financial year arises from the disposal of CIMB Wealth

Advisors Berhad and SBB Asset Management Sdn Bhd as disclosed in Note 56(c)(i) and has been written off. The “Others” CGU was affected by the impairment charge write-off.

The valuation of credit card customer relationships was determined through the sum of the discounted future excess earnings attributable to existing credit card customers over the remaining life span of the customer relationships. Income from existing credit card base was projected, adjusted for expected attrition and taking into account applicable costs to determine future excess earnings. The discount rate used in the valuation of credit card customer relationships was 11.7%, which is arrived at using the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the risk premium after taking into consideration the average market cost of equity.

The valuation of core deposits was derived by discounting the anticipated future benefits in the form of net interest savings from core deposits. The discount rate used was 9.6%, which was derived from the average of the weighted average cost of capital and the cost of equity, reflecting the lower risk premium for core deposit intangibles compared with equity returns.

The remaining amortisation period of credit card customer relationships and core deposits range from 5 to 9 years, respectively.

* The credit equivalent amount is arrived at using the credit conversion factors as per Bank Negara Malaysia guidelines. Effective 1 October 2008, the following approaches have been adopted for the computation of the credit equivalent and risk-weighted assets:- adoption of bilateral netting as provided under the Standardised Approach Framework which involves the

weighting of net claims rather than gross claims with the same counterparties arising out of the full range of forwards, swaps, options and similar derivative contracts.

- irrevocable commitments to extend credit (undrawn loans) have been revised to include only those undrawn loans whereby all conditions precedent have been met.

# Included in miscellaneous commitment and contingencies is a commitment by the Bank to place an additional RM1,507 million (2007: RM719 million) with CIMB Islamic in relation to the RPSIA arrangement (See Note 3).

The Bank has confirmed that it will provide continuing financial support to certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to meet their liabilities and financial obligations as and when they fall due and to carry on their businesses without significant restriction on their operations.

To develop the expected long-term rate of return on assets assumption, the Bank considered the current level of expected returns on risk free investments (primarily government bonds), the historical level of the risk premium associated with the other asset classes in which the portfolio is invested and the expectations for future returns of each asset class. The expected return for each asset class was then weighted based on the target asset allocation to develop the expected long-term rate of return on assets assumption for the portfolio.

offer under the laws of Thailand to acquire all the remaining BankThai shares not already owned by the Bank (“Tender Offer”). The Tender Offer was completed on 13 January 2009 with a total of approximately 3.33 billion BankThai shares representing approximately 49.91% of the total issued and paid-up share capital of BankThai accepting the Tender Offer and consequently, the Bank’s total equity holding in BankThai is 92.04%, making it a subsidiary of the Bank.

(b) Disposal by the Bank of certain assets, liabilities and the asset/fund management business of southern investment Bank Berhad (“siBB”) to hlG credit sdn Bhd (“hlGc”), a 75% indirect subsidiary of hong leong Financial Group Berhad (“siBB Disposal”)

The SIBB Disposal has been approved by the Minister of Finance II on 20 May 2008 and the vesting of certain assets and liabilities to HLGC was completed on 31 January 2009.

(c) Proposed sale and leaseback of Menara Bumiputra-commerce On 3 December 2007, the Bank and its ultimate holding company, Bumiputra Commerce Holdings Berhad (“BCHB”)

entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) and Lease Agreement (“LA”) with Pelaburan Hartanah Bumiputra Berhad (“PHBB”) for the proposed sale and leaseback of Menara Bumiputra-Commerce.

Pursuant to the SPA and LA, BCHB shall dispose Menara Bumiputra-Commerce to PHBB for a total cash consideration of RM460 million. The Bank will then lease Menara Bumiputra-Commerce for an initial lease tenure of ten years with renewal options for two additional periods of five years each. The proposed sale and leaseback of Menara Bumiputra-Commerce was completed on 16 February 2009.




52 critical accountinG estiMates anD JuDGeMents in aPPlyinG accountinG Policies The Group and the Bank make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by

definition, rarely equal the related actual results. To enhance the information content of the estimates, certain key variables that are anticipated to have material impact to the Group’s and the Bank’s results and financial position are tested for sensitivity to changes in the underlying parameters. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined below:

(a) Impairment of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities The Group and the Bank follow the guidance of the revised BNM/GP8 in determining when an investment is other than

temporarily impaired. This determination requires significant judgement. The Group and the Bank evaluate, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of the investment is less than cost; and the financial health and near-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financial cash flow.

(b) Allowance on loans, advances and financing The Group and the Bank make allowance for losses on loans, advances and financing based on assessment of

recoverability. Whilst management is guided by the relevant BNM guidelines, management makes judgement on the future and other key factors in respect of the recovery of loans, advances and financing. Among the factors considered are the Group’s aggregate exposure to the borrowers, the net realisable value of the underlying collateral value, the viability of the customer’s business model, the capacity to generate sufficient cash flow to service debt obligations and the aggregate amount and ranking of all other creditor claims.

(c) Goodwill impairment The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment in accordance with the accounting policy stated

in Note I of the Summary of Significant Group Accounting Policies.

The first step of the impairment review process requires the identification of independent operating units, dividing the Group’s business into the various business segments. The goodwill is then allocated to these various business segments. The first element of this allocation is based on the areas of the business expected to benefit from the synergies derived from the acquisition. The second element reflects the allocation of the net assets acquired and the difference between the consideration paid for those net assets and their fair value. This allocation is reviewed following business reorganisation. The carrying value of the business segment, including the allocated goodwill, is compared to its fair value to determine whether any impairment exists. Detailed calculations may need to be carried out taking into consideration changes in market in which a business operates. In the absence of readily available market data, this calculation is usually based upon discounting expected pre-tax cash flows at the Group’s and the Bank’s cost of capital, which requires exercise of judgement.

Changes to the assumptions used by management, particularly the discount rate and the terminal growth rate, may significantly affect the results of the impairment.

(d) Intangible assets The Group’s and the Bank’s intangible assets that derive their value from contractual customer relationships and core

deposits or that can be separated and sold and have a finite useful life are amortised over their estimated useful life.




52 critical accountinG estiMates anD JuDGeMents in aPPlyinG accountinG Policies (continueD)(d) Intangible assets (continued) Determining the estimated useful life of these intangible assets requires an analysis of circumstances and judgement

by the Bank’s management. At each balance sheet date, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances dictate, intangible assets are assessed for indications of impairment. If indications are present, these assets are subject to an impairment review. The impairment review comprises a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets with its recoverable amount: the higher of the assets’ selling price and its value in use. Net selling price is calculated based by reference to the amount at which the asset could be disposed in a binding agreement in an arms length transaction evidenced by an active market or recent transactions for similar assets.

Value in use is calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows obtainable as a result of the assets’ continued use, including those resulting from its ultimate disposal, at a market-based discount rate on pre-tax basis.

54 risk ManaGeMent anD use oF Financial instruMents(a) Financial risk management objectives and policies An effective risk management system is critical for the Bank to achieve continued profitability and sustainable growth in

shareholder’s value, more so in today’s globalised, yet inter-linked financial and economic environment.

Risk management is an integral part of the Bank’s activities and is an important feature in all its business, operations, delivery channels and decision-making processes. The extent to which the Bank is able to identify, assess, monitor, manage and report each of the various types of risk is critical to its safety, soundness and profitability. The Bank’s risk management function is independent of its operating units and reports to the Board on a regular basis. The Bank does not embark on new businesses, introduce new products, engage in new activities or enter into new markets, unless approved by the Group Risk Committee.




54 risk ManaGeMent anD use oF Financial instruMents (continueD)(a) Financial risk management objectives and policies (continued) Generally, the objectives of the Bank’s risk management framework are to:

• Identify the various risk exposures and risk capital requirements;• Establish the policies and procedures to measure, monitor, manage and report these exposures, and to ensure that

they are within the Bank’s risk profile as approved by the Board of the Bank; and• Set out the appropriate responsibilities, internal controls, as well as supporting structures required in the risk

management process.

(b) enterprise risk Management and control Framework CIMB Group employs an Enterprise Wide Risk Management (“EWRM”) framework to manage its risk and opportunity

effectively. The EWRM framework involves an on-going process of identifying, evaluating, monitoring, managing and reporting significant risks affecting the Group, implemented through a number of committees established by the Board of Directors. The framework provides the Board and its management with a tool to anticipate and manage both the existing and potential risk, taking into consideration the changing risk profiles, as dictated by changes in business strategies and regulatory environment and functional activities throughout the year.

The Bank employs a Capital-at-Risk (“CaR”) framework as the common measure of risk across CIMB Group. The CaR framework provides the basis of allocating economic capital within CIMB, to cushion against unexpected losses. CaR can be aggregated, thus allowing measurement of the Bank’s total risk. It also provides a yardstick for evaluating risk-return relationship in different lines of business. The CaR framework also enables measurement of return of risk-adjusted-capital, to compare profitability across different businesses and for performance measurement in the Bank.

A group wide stress test is performed on a biannual basis to evaluate the financial impact on the Group in the event of projected adverse economic and financial situations. This process enables the Group to assess the sufficiency of its liquidity surplus and reserves, and whether it could continue to meet its minimum capital requirement under such scenario. Such group wide stress test allows management to gain a better understanding of how portfolios and investments are likely to react to changing economic conditions and how the Group can best prepare for and react to them. In addition, the Group performs ad-hoc stress tests on selected portfolio to evaluate its performance under a given stress scenario.

(c) risk Management organisation At the apex of the Bank management structure is the Board Risk Committee (“BRC”), which comprises exclusively of non-

executive Directors of the Bank. In line with best practices, the BRC determines the risk policy objectives for the Bank, and assumes ultimate responsibility for risk management. The BRC also decides the yearly allocation of risk capital to support all risks taken by the Bank.

The day-to-day responsibility for risk management and control is delegated to the Group Risk Committee (“GRC”). The GRC, comprises of senior management of the Group, undertakes the oversight function for capital allocation and overall risk limits, in line with the risk appetite determined by the Board of Directors. The GRC is supported by four specialised sub-committees, namely the Market and International Risk Committee, the Credit Risk Committee, the Liquidity Risk Committee and the Operational Risk Committee, each addressing one of the following:

• Market risk, arising from changes in market prices from exposure to interest rates, currency exchange rate, credit spreads, equity and commodities prices;

• Credit risk, arising from losses due to obligor, counterparty or issuer failing to perform its contractual obligations to the Group;




54 risk ManaGeMent anD use oF Financial instruMents (continueD)(c) risk Management organisation (continued)

• Liquidity risk, arising from a bank’s inability to meet its present and future funding needs on a timely basis, from mismatches between the size of assets and liabilities or their maturities; and

• Operational risk, arising from internal processes which may result from inadequacies or failures in processes, controls or projects due to fraud, unauthorised activities, error, omission, inefficiency, systems failures or from external events.

The roles and responsibilities of the committees and sub-committees are set out in the chart below:

(d) Group risk Division (“GrD”) The primary oversight body is the Group Risk Division, comprising of Group Risk Management (“GRM”) and Group Credit

(“GC”), which are independent of business units and assist the Management and the various risk committees in monitoring and controlling the Group’s risk exposures.

The key responsibilities of GRD are to identify, analyse, monitor, review and report the principal risks to which the Bank is exposed. It also helps to create shareholder value through proper allocation of risk capital, development of risk-based pricing framework and facilitate development of new business and products.

54 risk ManaGeMent anD use oF Financial instruMents (continueD)(e) Group risk Management (“GrM”) GRM monitors risk-taking activities, initiates and proposes risk policies, risk measurement methodologies, risk limits

and risk capital allocation, performs independent review of loan assets quality and loan recovery plan, coordinates new products deployments and develops the risk-based product pricing framework for loan portfolios.

In propagating and ensuring compliance to the Market Risk framework, GRM reviews and analyses treasury trading strategy, positions and activities vis-à-vis changes in the financial market and performs mark-to-market as part of financial valuation. Further, GRM also conducts validation on the risk pricing parameters and models used.

GRM is also tasked with the co-ordination of the Group’s effort towards implementation of the Basel II framework in compliance with the International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards prescribed by the Bank of International Settlements and as adopted by BNM. In this regard, GRM develops, implements and validates all internal rating and scoring models and closely monitors the usage of the rating and scoring systems to ensure relevance to current market conditions and integrity of the ratings.

On an annual basis, GRM proposes the global CaR limit to the GRC and BRC for approval. This limit is allocated by the GRC to the various businesses of the Group through the MIRC and the CRC. The appropriate market and credit allocations are given by the various business units to execute their business plans each year. GRC also ensures that the aggregate risk exposure does not exceed the global CaR limit approved by the BRC.

(f) Group credit (“Gc”) GC is authorised to approve applications for credit facilities of up to RM10 million extended to small and medium

enterprises. Otherwise, GC carries out independent assessments of all credit risk related proposals originating from the various business units such as loans and advances, fixed income, derivatives, sales and trading, prior to submission to the CRC, the EXCO or Board for approval. GC also reviews the Bank’s holdings of all fixed income assets and recommends the internal ratings for CRC’s approval. GC is also responsible for tracking and analysing loans which turn non-performing within 1 year of approval.

(g) key areas of risk Management1. credit risk Credit and counterparty risk is defined as the possibility of losses due to an obligor or market counterparty or issuer

of securities failing to perform its contractual obligations to the Bank.

Credit risk arises primarily from lending activities through loans as well as commitments to support clients’ obligations to third parties, i.e. guarantees. In sales and trading activities, credit risk arises from the possibility that counterparties will not be able or willing to fulfil their obligation on transactions on or before settlement date. In derivatives activities, credit risk arises when counterparties to derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps, are not able to or willing to fulfil their obligation to pay the Bank the positive fair value or receivable resulting from the execution of contract terms. Credit risk may also arise where the downgrading of an entity’s rating causes the fair value of the Bank’s investment in that entity’s financial instruments to fall.

Credit risk remains the most significant risk to which the Bank is exposed. The purpose of credit risk management is to keep credit risk exposure to an acceptable level vis-à-vis the capital, and to ensure the returns commensurate with risk.




54 risk ManaGeMent anD use oF Financial instruMents (continueD)(g) key areas of risk Management (continued)

1. credit risk (continued) All credit exposures are subject to an internal rating, based on a combination of quantitative and qualitative criteria.

Adherence to set credit limits is monitored daily by GRM, which combines all exposures for each counterparty, including off-balance sheet items and potential exposure. Compliance to the Group-wide credit policy limits the exposure to any one counterparty or group, industry sector and rating classification.

Credit exposures are evaluated by the CRC and are monitored against approved limits on a regular basis. Adherence to and compliance with single customer limit as well as assessing the quality of collateral are approaches adopted to address concentration risk to any large sector/industry, or to a particular counterparty group or individual.

The result of severe disruption of the US sub-prime mortgage market was felt across the global financial markets in 2008, and were reflected in wider credit spread, higher volatility, tighter liquidity and ultimately, the collapse of several large global investment banks. At the onset of the financial crisis, GC has conducted numerous reviews to scale down the Group’s exposure in several industries/sectors, countries and counterparties that are affected by the sub-prime and global financial crisis.

2. Market risk Market risk is defined as any fluctuation in the value of the portfolio resulting from changes in market prices, such as

interest rates, currency exchange rates, credit spreads, equity prices and commodities prices.

Market risk results from trading activities that can arise from customer-related businesses or from proprietary positions. The Group hedges the exposures to market risk by employing varied strategies, including the use of derivative instruments.

The Group adopts various measures in its risk management process to manage market risk. An accurate and timely valuation of position is critical to provide the Group with its current market exposure. GRM values the exposure using market price or a pricing model where appropriate.

The Group also adopts a value-at-risk (“VAR”) approach in the measurement of market risk. Backtesting is performed to validate and reassess the accuracy of the existing VAR model. VAR is a statistical measure of the potential losses that could occur as a result of movements in market rates and prices over a specified time horizon within a given confidence level. Backtesting involves the comparison of the daily model-generated VAR forecast against the actual or hypothetical profit or loss data over the corresponding period.

Stress testing is conducted to capture the potential market risk exposures from an unexpected market movement. In formulating stress scenario, consideration is given to various aspects of the market; for example identification of areas where unexpected losses can occur and areas where historical correlation may no longer hold true.

Policies and procedures governing risk-taking translates limits and management triggers which complements the global CaR limit. Limits constitute the key mechanism to control allowable risk taking, and are regularly reviewed in the face of changing business needs, market condition and regulatory changes.

Risk Middle Office (“RMO”) within GRM undertakes monitoring and oversight process at Group Treasury and Equity Market & Derivatives trading floor, which includes reviewing and analysing treasury trading strategy, positions and activities vis-à-vis changes in the financial market, monitoring limit usage, assessing limit adequacy and verifying transaction prices.





2. Market risk (continued) Exposures to several of the Group’s global investment banking counterparties were reduced and further mitigated,

hence containing losses due to the global financial crisis.

3. liquidity risk Liquidity risk is defined as the risk to earnings or shareholders funds from the Group’s inability to meet its present and

future (both anticipated and unanticipated) funding needs on a timely basis, arising from mismatches between the size or maturities of assets and liabilities.

The Group’s liquidity risk management policy is to maintain hiqh quality and well diversified portfolios of liquid assets and sources of funds. Management action triggers have been established to alert management to potential and emerging liquidity pressures. The Group’s early warning system and contingency funding plans are in place to alert and enable Management to act effectively and efficiently during a liquidity crisis and under adverse market conditions.

The Group’s liquidity risk management organisation and its strong liquidity position helped the Group manage through the credit and liquidity turmoil that affected global financial markets in 2008. The Liquidity Risk Committee meets at least once a month to discuss the liquidity risk and funding profile and is chaired by the Head of Group Risk Division. The Asset Liability Management function, which is responsible for the independent monitoring of the Bank’s liquidity risk profile, worked closely with Group Treasury in intensifying its surveillance on market conditions and performed frequent stress testing on liquidity positions. Liquidity positions are monitored on a daily basis and complied with regulatory requirements for liquidity risk. The Group maintained large buffers of liquidity throughout 2008. As result, contingency funding plans were not required to be executed as there was sufficient liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations from a strategic, structural and tactical perspective.

4. operational risk Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems, or from

external events.

The existing Operational Risk Management Framework, which is revised periodically to cater for changing business conditions, is designed objectively to monitor and control operational risk effectively leading to a sound and stable operational environment within the Group. All operational risks, both inherent and anticipated, are properly identified, captured, mitigated, monitored and reported in a systematic and consistent manner. The Operational Risk Committee (“ORC”) has oversight responsibility for all Group operational activities conducted on a day-to-day basis.

The adoption of the Control Risk Self Assessment (“CRSA”) and the Self Assessment Review Project (“ShARP”) are part of the Bank’s initiatives to ensure that operational risks within the processes in each business unit are properly identified, analysed and mitigated on a periodic basis. Relevant Key Risk Indicators (“KRI”) are in use to track changes that may highlight new risk concerns and potential areas of weaknesses in operational control.

Each new or varied product and changes to the process flow are subjected to a rigorous risk review through sign-offs from the relevant support units where all critical risks are being identified and assessed independently from the risk takers or product owners.

The Bank continued to stress the importance of adhering to internal controls and established procedures to deter fraud and to minimize losses due to staff negligence. In order to demonstrate the seriousness of such offences, strict disciplinary actions are instituted against staff concerned.





5. Basel ii implementation BNM has announced a two-phase approach for implementing the standards recommended by the Bank of

International Settlement set out in “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework” (“Basel II”) in Malaysia. In the first phase, banking institutions will be required to adopt the Standardised Approach for credit risk by the end of 2008. In the second phase, qualified banking institutions will be allowed to migrate directly to the Internal Rating-Based approach (“IRB Approach”) by January 2010.

BNM has approved the Group’s application for direct migration to the IRB Approach. The approach for credit risk will be Advance IRB for retail exposure and Foundation IRB for corporate exposure. Operational risk will be based on Basic Indicator Approach and working towards Standarised Approach in 2010. Regular meetings are held with BNM to ensure implementation initiatives are in line with their expectations.

A Basel II Steering Committee chaired by the Group CEO has been set up to oversee the implementation initiatives across the Group with assistance of various sub-committees. Significant progress has been achieved in various workstreams, primarily, in rating models calibration and risk datamart.

The Group employs an economic capital allocation framework, whereby capital is allocated to all business units. All major categories of risk are measured. This is in line with the Second Pillar of Basel II framework-Supervisory Review Process and also BNM’s Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process, which requires banks adopting the IRB Approach to develop a robust risk management framework (methodologies and process) to assess the adequacy of its internal economic capital in relation to the risk profile.

Ongoing efforts are in place to enhance the operational risk loss event reporting and data collection for the enlarged Group. Initiatives are being made to promote a web based application to ensure loss event incidents are being reported and captured on a timely basis and in an accurate manner. The integrated loss event database is crucial to prepare the Group to adopt a more advanced operational measurement model.

55 Fair value oF Financial instruMents Financial instruments comprise financial assets, financial liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments. Fair value is

the amount at which a financial asset could be exchanged or a financial liability settled, between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. The information presented herein represents the estimates of fair values as at the balance sheet date.

Where available, quoted and observable market prices are used as the measure of fair values. Where such quoted and observable market prices are not available, fair values are estimated based on a range of methodologies and assumptions regarding risk characteristics of various financial instruments, discount rates, estimates of future cash flows and other factors. Changes in the uncertainties and assumptions could materially affect these estimates and the resulting fair value estimates.

In addition, fair value information for non-financial assets and liabilities are excluded as they do not fall within the scope of FRS 132 - Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation which requires the fair value information to be disclosed.

A range of methodologies and assumptions had been used in deriving the fair values of the Group’s and the Bank’s financial instruments at balance sheet date. The total fair value of each financial instrument approximates the total carrying value as at the balance sheet, except for the following:

The carrying amount of the financial assets at the balance sheet date were not reduced to their estimated fair values as the

Directors are of the opinion that the amounts will be recoverable in full on the maturity date.

The fair values are based on the following methodologies and assumptions:

short term funds and placements with financial institutions For short term funds and placements with financial institutions with maturities of less than six months, the carrying value is

a reasonable estimate of fair value. For deposits and placements with maturities of six months and above, the estimated fair value is based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money market interest rates at which similar deposits and placements would be made with financial institutions of similar credit risk and remaining period to maturity.

securities held for trading, available-for-sale securities and held-to-maturity securities The estimated fair value is generally based on quoted and observable market prices. Where there is no ready market in certain

securities, the Group and the Bank establish fair value by using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants.

loans, advances and financing For floating rate loans, the carrying value is generally a reasonable estimate of fair value.

For fixed rate loans with maturities of six months or more, the fair value is estimated by discounting the estimated future cash flows using the prevailing market rates of loans with similar credit risks and maturities.

The fair values of impaired floating and fixed rate loans are represented by their carrying value, net of specific allowance, being the expected recoverable amount.




55 Fair value oF Financial instruMents (continueD) amount due (to)/from subsidiaries and related companies The estimated fair values of the amount due from subsidiaries and related companies approximate the carrying values as the

balances are either recallable on demand or are based on the current rates for such similar loans.

amount due (to)/from holding company and ultimate holding company The estimated fair value of the amount due from holding company approximates the carrying value as the balances are

recallable on demand.

Deposits from customers For deposits from customers with maturities of less than six months, the carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of their

fair value. For deposit with maturities of six months or more, fair values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on prevailing market rates for similar deposits from customers.

Deposits and placements of banks and other financial institutions The estimated fair values of deposits and placements of banks and other financial institutions with maturities of less than six

months approximate the carrying values. For deposits and placements with maturities of six months or more, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money market interest rates for deposits and placements with similar remaining period to maturities.

obligations on securities sold under repurchase agreements The estimated fair values of obligations on securities sold under repurchase agreements with maturities of less than six months

approximate the carrying values. For obligations on securities sold under repurchase agreements with maturities of more than six months, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money market interest rates with similar remaining period to maturity.

Bills and acceptances payable The estimated fair values of bills and acceptances payable with maturities of less than six months approximate the carrying

values. For bills and acceptances payable with maturities of six months or more, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money market interest rates for bills and acceptance payable with similar remaining period to maturity.

amount due to cagamas Berhad The estimated fair values of the amount due to Cagamas Berhad with maturities of less than six months approximate the

carrying values. For amount due to Cagamas Berhad with maturities of six months or more, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using prevailing interest rates for loans sold to Cagamas Berhad with similar remaining period to maturity.

iculs The estimated fair value of ICULS approximates the carrying value as based on the Directors’ estimate, the effective interest

rate of the ICULS is a fair reflection of the current rates for such similar long term borrowings.

subordinated obligations The fair values for the quoted subordinated obligations are obtained from quoted market prices while the fair values for

unquoted subordinated obligations are estimated based on discounted cash flow models.




55 Fair value oF Financial instruMents (continueD) redeemable preference shares The estimated fair value of redeemable cumulative preference shares (“RCPS”) approximates the carrying value based on

Directors’ estimate as the effective interest rate of the RCPS is a fair reflection of the current rate for such similar instrument.

Derivative financial instruments The fair values of derivative financial instruments are obtained from quoted market prices in active markets, including

recent market transactions and valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models and option pricing models, as appropriate.

credit related commitment and contingencies The net fair value of these items was not calculated as estimated fair values are not readily ascertainable. These financial

instruments generally relate to credit risks and attract fees in line with market prices for similar arrangements. They are not presently sold nor traded. The fair value may be represented by the present value of fees expected to be received, less associated costs.

* The credit equivalent amount is arrived at using the credit conversion factors as per Bank Negara Malaysia guidelines. Effective 1 October 2008, the following approaches have been adopted for the computation of the credit equivalent and risk-weighted assets:- adoption of bilateral netting as provided under the Standardised Approach Framework which involves the

weighting of net claims rather than gross claims with the same counterparties arising out of the full range of forwards, swaps, options and similar derivative contracts.

- Irrevocable commitments to extend credit (undrawn loans) have been revised to include only those undrawn loans whereby all conditions precedent have been met.

Goodwill is wholly allocated to the retail banking cash-generating unit(‘CGU’). The CGU does not carry any intangible

assets with indefinite useful lives.

The recoverable amount of CGU which are not classified as held for sale is determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on the 2009 financial budgets approved by Board of Directors, projected for 5 years based on the average to year historical Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) growth of the country covering a five year period, revised for current economic conditions. Cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using an estimated growth rate of 5.00%. The cash flow projections are derived based on a number of key factors including the past performance and management’s expectation of market developments. The discount rate used in determining the recoverable amount of the CGUs is 9.80%. The discount rate is pre-tax and reflects the specific risks relating to the CGUs.
