Report
Governor’s Note
1. The Ethiopian economy registered 7.7 percent growth in 2017/18, slower than the 10.9 percent expansion recorded in the previous year. This growth was attributed to 12.2 percent rise in industrial output, 8.8 percent expansion in service sector and 3.5 percent growth in agriculture.
Consequently, the share of industry in GDP rose to 27 percent in 2017/18 from about 26 percent in 2016/17 while that of service increased slightly to 39.2 percent from 38.8 percent in 2016/17. In contrast, the share of agriculture fell to 34.9 percent in 2017/18 from 36.3 percent during the same period. This gradual but steady shift in the structure of the economy reflects the government’s policy direction of developing manufacturing sector and promoting export-led growth while continuing to give due attention to modernizing the agriculture sector which has dominated the country’s economic base for years.
2. The robust and sustained economic growth recorded over the last 15 years has led to improvements in income inequality and poverty reduction. Accordingly, per capita income has continuously increased and reached USD 883 in 2017/18. Poverty has declined to 22 percent from 38.7 percent in 2004/05. Investment to GDP ratio has increased to 34.1 percent while that of domestic savings rose to 22.4 percent.

Governor’s Note
1. The Ethiopian economy registered 7.7 percent growth in 2017/18, slower than the 10.9 percent expansion recorded in the previous year. This growth was attributed to 12.2 percent rise in industrial output, 8.8 percent expansion in service sector and 3.5 percent growth in agriculture.
Consequently, the share of industry in GDP rose to 27 percent in 2017/18 from about 26 percent in 2016/17 while that of service increased slightly to 39.2 percent from 38.8 percent in 2016/17. In contrast, the share of agriculture fell to 34.9 percent in 2017/18 from 36.3 percent during the same period. This gradual but steady shift in the structure of the economy reflects the government’s policy direction of developing manufacturing sector and promoting export-led growth while continuing to give due attention to modernizing the agriculture sector which has dominated the country’s economic base for years.
2. The robust and sustained economic growth recorded over the last 15 years has led to improvements in income inequality and poverty reduction. Accordingly, per capita income has continuously increased and reached USD 883 in 2017/18. Poverty has declined to 22 percent from 38.7 percent in 2004/05. Investment to GDP ratio has increased to 34.1 percent while that of domestic savings rose to 22.4 percent.

3. Despite the recent uptick, inflation has been kept within single digit level in 2017/18 largely aided by tight monetary and prudent fiscal policy stance. Yet, the annual average headline inflation rose to 13.1 percent in 2017/18 from 7.2 percent a year earlier due to the rise in both food and non-food inflation. Similarly, annual headline inflation went up to 14.7 percent from 8.8 percent owing to 6.7 percentage point and 4.9 percentage point increase in food inflation and non-food inflation respectively.
4. Fiscal policy continued to focus on increasing tax revenue by strengthening tax administration and enforcement, while covering a greater proportion of government expenditures from domestic resources. These government expenditures have largely been geared towards enhancing capital expenditure and pro-poor social spending programs and promoting safety nets. Thus, domestic revenue recorded a 5.1 percent annual growth while general government expenditure showed a 7.6 percent increment resulting in a budget deficit equivalent to 3 percent of GDP, higher than 2.8 percent of GDP target set in the GTP II plan.
5. The National Bank of Ethiopia (NBE) with a view of maintaining inflation at low and single digit level, has kept the growth of reserve money within the target by closely monitoring movements in domestic credit, including direct advance to the government. The Bank has also ensured the stability and predictability of the interest rate by setting the minimum deposit rate while allowing lending rate to be determined by market forces. This policy has resulted in increased saving mobilization and investment activities throughout the fiscal year.
6. Ethiopia has maintained managed float exchange regime to ensure the competitiveness of the local currency. Accordingly, the Birr was allowed to depreciate by 16.5 percent in nominal terms against the US Dollar by end 2017/18. In contrast, the real effective exchange rate appreciated by 5.9 percent largely due to 15 percent devaluation of the Birr against US dollar in October 2017.
7. The Ethiopian financial sector has remained safe, sound, well capitalized and profitable. As a result, commercial banks opened 500 new branches in 2017/18 alone which increased the total number of branches to 4,757 from 4,257 a year ago. The banks also increased their deposit mobilization by 23.6 percent, loan collection by 14.9 percent and loan disbursement by 5.9 percent. Their non-performing loan was within the required ceiling of 5 percent. Similarly, insurance companies and microfinance institutions have scaled up their services by expanding their network and product diversification. Capital goods finance companies have also stepped up
NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA

their operations showing visible signs of improvement.
8. Moreover, the implementation of financial inclusion strategy has resulted not only in terms of increased financial intermediation but also in enhancing the use of electronic money and new financial products. This strategy is expected to further improve access to finance and financial inclusion for a greater proportion of the society which is currently outside the reach modern financial services. To mitigate potential risks associated with this process of modernization, NBE has strengthened its monitoring and supervisory operation using international standard toolkits.
9. Fiscal year 2017/18 has been a challenging year for the Ethiopian external sector Particularly exports. Total merchandise exports revealed a 2.3 percent decline owing to lower earnings from export of coffe, pulses, live animals and chat. Total merchandize import also contracted by 3.5 percent due to slow down in imports of durable consumer goods and capital goods mainly transport and industrial goods. Ethiopia's external sector performance has also exhibited declines in both current account deficit (including offficial transfers ) and capital account surpluses, and recorded deficit in the overall balance of payments. Thus, the gross international reserves of the country stood at 2.1 months of imports coverage.
10. In a nut shell, despite headwinds, economic performance remained robust in2017/18. Most of the macroecnomic indicators were in line with the growth target set in GTP II fr the fiscal year. The ecnomic prospects for the 2018/19 are envisaged to be more postive despite some down side risks reated to export commodity price shocks and temporary inflation pressure.
11. Finally, it is worth to express my whole hearted appreciation to all members of NBE management team and staffs for their unwavering commitment in realizing the strategic objectives of the Bank and in contributing to the country's overall macroeconomic stability and growth . I am confident that they will continue their concerted efforts to achieve more postive outcomes and robust progress during FY 2018/19 and beyound.

THE OVERALL ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE

I. The overall Economic Performance1.1 Economic Growth1
The Ethiopian economy which had showed 9.3 percent average annual growth during 2013/14 - 2017/18 fiscal years, recorded 7.7 percent growth in 2017/18 fiscal year, slower than the growth rate registered in the previous year owing to growth deceleration in agriculture and industry sectors. The growth rate of real GDP was lower by 3.4 percentage point than the base case scenario of GTP II target set for the fiscal year. Yet, it was significantly higher than the 3.1 percent average growth estimated for Sub-Saharan Africa (World Economic Outlook Update, October 2018).
The growth in real GDP was mainly attributed to 8.8 percent growth in services, 3.5 percent in agriculture and 12.2 percent in industrial sectors (Table 1.1).
Nominal GDP per capita rose to USD 883, depicting marginal improvement over the previous year.
The Ethiopian economy is targeted to grow 11 percent in 2018/19 fiscal year compared to 3.7 and 3.8 percent growth forecast of the IMF for world economy and Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), respectively (WEO, October 2018).
_____________________________________1 The real values of the economic sectors in 2016/17and 2017/18 are computed based on the 2015/16 base year; while that of the earlier years are based on 2010/11 base year. As a result, there will be some adjustments when the rebasing of National Accounts Statistics is finalized.

The share of agriculture in GDP declined to 34.9 percent in 2017/18 from 36.3 percent of a year ago. This was marginally lower than the 35.4 percent GTP II target set for the fiscal year. Likewise, its contribution to GDP growth declined to 16.5 percent from 24.6 percent (Table 1.1). The major output of the agricultural sector was crop production, comprising 65.3 percent, followed by animal farming & hunting (25.6 percent) and forestry (8.8 percent). In terms of growth, crop production increased by 4.7 percent while that of animal farming & hunting and forestry rose by 0.6 and 3.5 percent, respectively (Table 1.3).
The industrial sector showed 12.2 percent output growth and registered 27 percent share in GDP. The sector contributed 40.7 percent to the overall economic growth during the fiscal year (Table1.1). Its performance was lower than GTP II target of 20.6 percent, while its share is higher than the 19.4 percent share targeted for the same period.
Manufacturing sector increased by 5.5 percent and constituted about 25.3 percent of the industrial output. Construction industry, on the other hand, accounted for 71.4 percent of the industrial output and expanded by 15.7 percent signifying the leading role of the
9
construction sector in terms of roads, railways, dams and residential houses expansion.
Electricity & water and mining & quarrying had 2.6 and 0.7 percent contribution to industrial production, respectively (Table 1.3).
Service sector continued to dominate the economy as its share in GDP rose to 39.2 percent while its contribution to the GDP growth increased to 43.9 percent (Table 1.1). The sector showed 8.8 percent growth largely owing to the expansion of wholesale & retail trade
(12.3 percent), public administration & defense (8.9 percent), hotels & restaurants (6.5 percent), transport & communication (6.4 percent) and real estate, renting & business activities (6.2 percent) (Table 1.3).

1.4. Access to Water Supply
During the review period, the proportion of people having access to potable water supply improved by 5.1 percentage point to 71 percent (74 percent rural and 60 percent urban population); relative to 66 percent (68 percent rural and 55 percent urban people) coverage a year earlier (Table 1.7). In other words, rural areas had relatively better access than the urban areas due to difference in newly depicted standards by the ministry of water, Irrigation and Energy.
Against GTP II annual target for the year 2017/18, urban and rural potable water supply coverage showed 5 and 1 percentage point shortfall respectively. GTP II has set potable water supply coverage at national level for the fiscal year at 73 percent which is 2 percentage point higher than actual.
In terms of percentage of people with access to potable water, Afar region had 54 percent accessibility to potable water registered the lowest percentage while that of Amhara performed better with (82 percent) followed by Somali (77 percent), Harari (67 percent), Gambella (66 percent) and Oromia (64 percent each). Except for Addis Ababa and Tigiray access to potable water shows improvements in all regions.
17
In Addis Ababa accesses for potable water drops from 92 percent to 61 percent owing to the standards for computation shifts from 100 litter/capita/day to 110 litter/capita/day. In the same way, in Tigray it shows downward movements by 6.1 percent the reason for annually decline is the size of population increases; while additional access for potable water is not show improvement accordingly.
In terms of access to potable water in urban areas, SNNPR had the leading share of 80 percent followed by Amhara & Somali (74 percent each), Harari (65 percent), Oromia (62 percent). On the
other hand, the least performers are Ben-gumuz (42 percent) followed by Gambella (43 percent) and Afar and Tigray (54 percent each).
Despite some improvements in access to potable water in rural areas, Afar and SNNPR registered the lowest performance 54 and 55 percent respectively.
On the other hand, Dire Dawa and Amhara saw the highest performance of 84 percent each followed by Somali (77 percent), and Gambella (75 percent).

1.7. Telecommunication
Telecommunication is one of the prime support services needed for rapid growth and modernization of various sectors of the economy. Expansion of infrastructure development such as telecommunication would have significant impact on attracting investment, creating market opportunities, enhance competitiveness and boost regional economic integration.
Cognizant of this fact, the Ethiopian government has made major investment for improving service quality, expansion of service coverage and enhancing institutional capacity in the telecom
sector. As a result, Ethio Telecom has set ambitious targets to enhance customer acquisition, customer satisfaction and provision of quality services to customers.
During 2017/18 fiscal year, the number of mobile subscribers declined by 30.4 percent to 40.4 million from 58 million a year ago; the reason for the decline is the decision to clear inactive1 customers for the long time; thus only active customers of specified service are included.
The lion share of mobile subscribers is from pre-paid subscribers comprising 99.5 percent; while the remaining 0.5 percent is post-paid mobile subscribers.
25
Similarly, the numbers of fixed line subscribers marginally declined by 1 percent due to inactive customers are not included.
On the other hand, the number of internet subscribers surged by 8.4 percent and reached 17.8 million from 16.5 million recorded in 2016/17 (Table 1.13).

ENERGY PRODUCTION
29
II. Energy Production2.1. Electric Power Generation
Ethiopia is estimated to have hydro-power potential of 45,000 MW, a geothermal potential of 10,000 MW and 1.3 million MW potential from wind farm. The country’s generating capacity is largely based on hydropower reservoirs as nine of its major rivers are suitable for hydroelectric power generation.
Considering the increasing power demand and capacity shortfall in the system and to have a better power generation mix, the country has been venturing to diversify its production of renewable energy to wind and geothermal sources.
Adama II wind farm has a generating capacity of 153 MW and combined with Adama I (51MW) and Ashegoda (120 MW), the total energy production from wind has reached 324 MW. In addition, the construction of Aysha 300 MW wind power project was under way.
Ethiopia is also identified as having a huge solar energy potential due to its geographical location near the equator. In its bid to become a major power exporter in East Africa and green economy, the country is also building several geothermal power plants.
The amount of electric power generated in 2017/18 was about 13.9 billion KWH, showing 11 percent annual expansion. About 95.2 percent of the electric power was generated through hydropower, 3.7 percent from wind and 1 percent from thermal sources.
The production of hydro power energy got momentum as the total electric energy generated increased to 13.2 billion KWH from 11.7 billion KWH a year earlier showing 12.8 percent annual increase while energy production from wind sources showed a down ward movement by 33.7 percent (Table 2.1).

IV. MONETARY AND FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENTS4.1 Monetary Developments and Policy
Notwithstanding, tighter monetary policy stance inflation has remained off-
target for the past eleven consecutive-months during 2017/18 fiscal year.
4.1.1 Developments in Monetary Aggregates
At the end of 2017/18, domestic liquidity, as measured by broad money supply (M2), reached Birr 740.6 billion depicting 29.2 percent annual expansion. This is mainly due to the surge in domestic credit by 24.3 percent. The high growth of domestic credit is attributed to 19.4 and 25.1 percent increase in both credit to the central government and credit to the non-central government, respectively (Table 4.2).
In 2017/18, all components of broad money has witnessed a surge. Narrow money rose by 29.7 percent due to the rise in demand deposits and currency outside banks, reflecting the growth in economic activities and improvements in money demand for transaction purposes. Similarly, quasi-money that
comprises savings and time deposits rose by 28.8 percent and reached Birr 459.5 billion by the close of the fiscal year. This is attributed to the increased capacity of banks in deposit mobilization driven by the opening of additional new branches (Table 4.1).

In 2017/18, reserve money or base money witnessed an annual expansion of 19.1 percent. As a result, reserve money reached Birr 174.2 billion at the end of the fiscal year. This growth is attributed to 17.8 and 19.8 percent rise in deposits of banks at NBE and currency in circulation, respectively. In determinant wise, the increment in reserve money was the result of the rise in net domestic credit by 26.6 percent and net foreign assets 19.9 percent. Excess reserves of commercial banks reached Birr 26.7 billion at the end of June 2017/18.
The ratio of M2 to GDP3, an indicator of financial deepening, went up by 7.5 percent to reach 0.34 points in 2017/18, partly indicating the prudent monetary policy measures taken by the national bank. Compared to last year same period, the money multipliers defined

as narrow money to reserve money reached 1.61 from 1.48 registered last year same period whereas ratio of broad money to reserve money showed slight increments and reached 4.25 from 3.92 position registered last year at the same period, reflecting improvements in deposit mobilization by commercial banks (Table 4.3).

4.2. Developments in Interest Rate
Due to the policy measure taken by the national bank of Ethiopia in October 2017, minimum and maximum deposit interest rates raised to 7.0 and 9.0 percent in 2017/18 fiscal year from 5.0 and 5.75 percent registered last year same period, respectively. Consequently, average interest rate on savings deposit registered to be 8.0 percent at the end of the fiscal year. Similarly, simple average lending interest rate reached 13.5 percent from 12.75 percent registered in 2016/17 fiscal year. Whereas weighted annual average interest rates on time and demand deposits show a slight adjustment and reached 8.09 and 0.04 percent respectively.
However, all real interest rates were negative as head line inflation was higher than the interest rates. The annual headline inflation rose to 14.7 percent at the end of 2017/18 from 8.8 percent in 2016/17. Consequently, the average real interest rate were negative at 6.7 percent for saving deposit, 6.6 percent for time deposit and 1.2 percent for lending interest rate (Table 4.4).

4.3.1. Resource Mobilization
Total resources mobilized by the banking system in the form of deposit, borrowing and loan collection increased by 27.7 percent and reached Birr 298.2 billion at the end of 2017/18 (Table 4.8). Aided by remarkable branch expansion, deposit liabilities of the banking system topped Birr 730.3 billion, reflecting 28.4 percent annual growth rate. Saving deposits grew by 30.4 percent followed by demand deposits (27.6 percent) and time deposits (21.7 percent). Of the total deposits, saving deposits accounted for 52.4 percent, demand deposits 37.1 percent and time deposit (10.5 percent) (Table 4.9).
The share of private banks in deposit mobilization increased to 37.8 percent from 35.5 percent last year due to the opening of 435 new branches. CBE alone mobilized 62 percent of the total deposits due to its extensive branch
network.
Raising funds through borrowing by the banking industry was not an important source of resource mobilization in Ethiopia as most of the banks were sufficiently liquid due to increased deposit mobilization and collection of loans. However, total outstanding borrowing at the end of the fiscal year was Birr 65 billion up from Birr 39.8 billion a year earlier due to borrowing by Development Bank of Ethiopia. Of the total borrowing, domestic sources accounted for 89.5 percent and foreign sources 10.5 percent (Table 4.9).
On the other hand, banks’ loan collection reached Birr 111.6 billion, showing a 14.9 percent annual increment, of which 58.8 percent was collected by private banks (Table 4.8).

4.5 Developments in Financial Markets
Although there is no secondary market in Ethiopia, government bonds are occasionally issued to finance
government expenditures and/or to absorb excess liquidity in the banking system.
4.5.1. Treasury Bills Market
The amount offered and demanded in the Treasury-bill market showed a similar development. The amount of Treasury-bills offered registered 36.2 percent rise and reached Birr 286.5 billion in 2017/18. Similarly, the amount of T-bills demanded in the weekly auction market exhibited 43.8 percent growth and stood at Birr 324.0 billion. The amount of T-bills sold during the year stood at Birr 324.0 billion indicating the market was oversubscribed by Birr 37.5 billion (6.14 percent).
At the end of 2017/18, the total outstanding T-bills went up by 51.8 percent and stood at Birr 111.2 billion.
The dominance of non-bank institutions in the T-bill market continued in the review year. Accordingly, the Non-bank institution constituted the entire amount of the total outstanding T-bills (Table 4.15).
The average weighted yield of the four types of bills declined slightly to 1.416 from 1.424 percent, a mere 0.567 percent down from last year (Table 4.15).
The highest yield was recorded for the 364-day T-bill while the lowest yield was for 182-day T-bill with a corresponding rate of 3.000 and 0.622 percent, respectively.

4.5.4. Inter-bank Money Market
The interbank money market remained inactive in Ethiopia due to the existence of excess reserves in the banking system. Accordingly, there was no transaction in the inter-bank money market after April 2008. Since its introduction in September 1998, merely twenty three transactions worth
Birr 259.2 million were transacted with interest rates ranging between 7 to 11 percent per year. The maturity period of these loans widely spanned from overnight to 5 years (Table 4.17).

NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA5.2. Developments in Merchandise Trade
5.2.1 Balance of Trade
Merchandise trade deficit in 2017/18 amounted USD 12.4 billion, depicting 3.7 percent improvement over the preceding fiscal year. This was mainly attributed to the reduction of import
bills. As a result, merchandise trade deficit to GDP ratio declined by 2.4 percentage point and stood at 13.6 percent.
5.2.2 Merchandise Export
Total merchandise export earnings declined by 2.3 percent over last year due to lower earnings from export of coffee (5.0 percent), pulses (3.7 percent), gold (52.0 percent), live-animals (9.6 percent), chat (3.6 percent) and other export items (2.9 percent). Hence, the ratio of merchandise export to GDP declined to 3.1 percent from 3.6 percent a year ago.
Specifically, earnings from export of coffee dropped by 5.0 percent wholly due to 10.1 percent decline in its international price despite 5.7 percent increase in its export volume. As a result, the share of coffee in total merchandise export slightly contracted to 29.5 percent from 30.4 percent recorded last year.
Earnings from pulses export also decreased by 3.7 percent to USD 269.5 million solely due to 13.7 percent fall in international price despite 11.5 percent growth in export volume. Hence, the share of pulses in total merchandise export earnings stood at 9.5 percent compared to 9.6 percent share a year earlier.
Similarly, the revenue from export of gold showed 52 percent reduction and amounted USD 100.2 million, driven wholly by 52.8 percent contraction in volume of export despite a 1.6 percent rise in international price. Thus, the share of gold in total merchandise export shrunk to 3.5 percent from 7.2 percent. Chat export earnings declined by 3.6 percent and amounted USD 263.2 million. This was wholly due to 3.7 percent drop in volume of export. Yet, its share in total merchandise export stood 9.3 percent compared to 9.4 percent share recorded last year.
The proceeds from export of live-animals showed 9.6 percent reduction resulting from 11.4 percent contraction in export volume against 2.1 percent rise in world price. Hence, the revenue from live-animals accounted for 2.2 percent of the total merchandise export compared to 2.3 percent share a year ago.
On the other hand, export revenue from oilseeds increased by 20.6 percent and reached USD 423.5 million aided by 15.4 and 4.5 percent rise in international price and export volume,
69
respectively. Hence, the share of oilseeds in total merchandise export improved to 14.9 percent from 12.1 percent recorded last year.
Similarly, earning from export of leather & leather products registered 16.1 percent increment owing to 8.7 percent expansion in export volume and 6.9 percent rise in international price. Consequently, the share of leather & leather products in total merchandise export revenue marginally improved to 4.7 percent from 3.9 percent.
Likewise, earning from export of flower showed 4.6 percent increment over last year. This was attributed to improvements in both export volume (1.5 percent) and international price (3.1 percent). As a result, the share of flower in total export earnings marginally rose to 8.0 percent from 7.5 percent last year.
Receipts from meat & meat products grew by 3.1 percent on account of
1.0 percent increase in global price and 2.0 percent growth in volume of exports. As a result, export of meat & meat products constituted 3.6 percent of the total merchandise export earnings.
Export earnings from fruits and vegetables increased by 9.5 percent vis-à-vis last year driven by 5.8 percent expansion in export volume and 3.5 percent improvement in international price. Thus, the share of fruits and vegetables in total merchandise export earnings rose to 2.2 percent from 1.9 percent last year.
Finally, earnings from electricity export increased by 14.9 percent vis-à-vis last year owing to 16.1 percent growth in export volume despite a 1.1 percent fall in international price. As a result, export of electricity accounted for 3 percent of the total merchandise export earnings compared to 2.5 percent share last year.

NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA5.2.3. Import of Goods
Total merchandise import bills amounted USD 15.3 billion depicting 3.5 percent annual decline. This was mainly on account of lower import of capital, consumer and semi-finished goods. As a result, total import to GDP ratio shrunk to 16.7 percent from 19.6 percent last year.
Import bills of capital goods dropped by 12.7 percent driven by lower import of transport goods (20.9 percent), agricultural goods (32.1 percent) and industrial goods (9.7 percent). Thus, the share of capital goods in total merchandise import bills fell to 34.5 percent from 38.2 percent a year ago.
Import bills of consumer goods amounted USD 4.7 billion showing 3.9 percent deceleration over last year owing to lower import of durable consumer goods (20.9 percent) against the increase in non-durable consumer goods (5.2 percent). As a result, the share of consumer goods in total
merchandise import bills remained nearly at 31 percent.
Similarly, semi-finished goods import slowed down by 3.5 percent to USD 2.5 billion and its share in the total merchandize import remained unchanged at 16.6 percent. However, import of fertilizer, increased by 30.0 percent over last year.
On the other hand, import of raw materials increased by 9.8 percent relative to the preceding year and accounted for 0.9 percent of the total merchandise import.
Fuel import bills also surged by 27.1 percent and amounted to USD 2.3 billion. This was attributed to the increase in both international price (16.1 percent) and import volume (9.5 percent). As a result, fuel import accounted for 15.2 percent of the total merchandise import compared to 11.5 percent last year same period.

VIII. International Developments8.1. International Economic Developments
8.1.1. Overview of the World Economy
Global growth strengthened and marked improvements in 2017 to 3.7 percent, due to recovery in investment in advanced economies and continued strong growth in emerging Asia and signs of recovery in several commodity exporters. Economic activity in both advanced economies and emerging & developing economies is forecast to accelerate in 2018, to 2.4 percent and 4.9 percent, respectively, with global growth projected to be 3.9 percent.
In the United States, growth is expected to rise from 2.3 percent in 2017 to 2.9 percent in 2018, before moderating slightly to 2.7 percent in 2019.
In Japan, economic growth is projected to moderate to 1.0 percent in 2018 (from a strong above trend outturn of 1.7 percent in 2017 before slowing further to 0.9 percent in 2019.
Growth in the United Kingdom is projected to slow from 1.7 percent in 2017 to 1.4 percent in 2018 and 1.5 percent in 2019, with business investment expected to remain weak in light of heightened uncertainty about post-Brexit arrangements. The medium-term growth forecast is also broadly unchanged at 1.6 percent, due to the likely effect of higher barriers to trade and lower foreign direct investment following Brexit.
In the euro area growth is projected
to slightly moderate to 2.2 percent in 2018 from 2.4 percent in 2017, before slowing further to 1.9 percent in 2019. Medium-term growth in the euro area is projected at 1.4 percent, held back by low productivity amid weak reform efforts and unfavorable demographics.
Growth in emerging market and developing economies is expected to increase further—from 4.7 percent in 2017 to 4.9 percent in 2018 and 5.1 percent in 2019. Although the high growth rate reflects primarily continued strong economic performance in emerging Asia, the projected pickup in growth reflects improved prospects for commodity exporters after three years of very weak economic activity. Beyond 2019, growth in emerging market and developing economies is projected to stabilize at about 5 percent over the medium term. China’s growth is projected to soften slightly from 6.9 percent in 2017 to 6.6 percent in 2018 and 6.4 percent in 2019. Over the medium term, the economy is projected to continue rebalancing away from investment toward private consumption and from industry to services.
Growth in the Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan, and Pakistan region is also expected to pick up 3.5 percent in 2018 and 3.9 percent in 2019. Stronger oil prices are expected to help recovery in domestic demand in oil exporters, including Saudi Arabia.
106 2017/18 Annual Report
NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIAGrowth in Sub-Saharan Africa is also projected to rise gradually during 2018–19 to 3.4 percent and 3.8 percent, respectively, as the challenging outlook in commodity exporters gradually improve. Growth in South Africa is expected to strengthen from 1.3 percent in 2017 to 1.5 percent in 2018 and 1.7 percent in 2019. Though the likely effects of improvement in business confidence due to the change in the political leadership
are expected to have positive effects, growth prospects however, remain weighed down by structural bottlenecks. In Nigeria, the economy is projected to grow 2.1 percent in 2018 and 2.3 percent in 2019 (up from 0.8 percent in 2017), reflecting improved oil prices, revenue, and production and recently introduced foreign exchange measures that contribute to better foreign exchange availability.

108 2017/18 Annual Report
NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA8.1. 2 World Trade
Global volume of world trade growth of goods and services in 2017 is estimated to have grown by 4.9 percent in volume terms. It is estimated to expand by 5.1 percent in 2018 and is projected to increase by 4.7 percent in 2019. Imports of goods and services by advanced economies rise by 5.1 percent in 2018 and by 4.5 percent in 2019. Similarly, imports by emerging market and developing economies forecasted to grow by 6.0 percent and 5.6 percent in 2018 and 2019, respectively. Likewise, export of goods and services from advanced economies and emerging and developing economies is forecasted to expand by 4.5 percent and 5.1 percent in 2018, respectively.
8.1.3 Inflation and Commodity Prices
Global headline inflation is picking up as a result of a strengthening global outlook, narrowing output gaps, supply effects together with stronger demand. As wage dynamics start reflecting tighter labor markets, core inflation is also expected to rise. In advanced economies, head line inflation rate is forecasted to be 2.0 percent in 2018 and 1.9 percent in 2019, up from 1.7 percent in 2017. Headline inflation in emerging market and developing economies is projected to rise to 4.6 percent in 2018 from 4.0 percent in 2017. In 2019, inflation is expected to moderate to about 4.3 percent.
In the United States, headline consumer price inflation is expected to increase from 2.1 percent in 2017 to 2.5 percent in 2018 before declining to 2.4 percent in 2019.
In Euro area headline inflation is expected to remain at about 1.5 percent in 2018 and it is expected to increase to 1.6 percent in 2019. In the United Kingdom, headline inflation in 2018 is projected at 2.7 percent, same as in 2017, before declining to 2.2 percent in 2019.
Headline inflation in Japan forecasted to be 1.1 percent in 2018 and 2019 from 0.5 percent in 2017. Higher energy and food prices and strong domestic demand are the main causes for the rise in inflation rate in Japan.
In emerging market economies, inflation development is diverse. In China inflation is expected to pick up to 2.5 percent in 2018 from 1.6 percent in 2017. Headline inflation rates in Brazil and Russia are expected to continue to remain subdued in a range of 3 percent to 4 percent in 2018 as output gaps gradually close, with growth continuing to recover from the recession between 2015 and 2017. In Mexico, the inflation rate is projected to decline to 4.4 percent in 2018 from 6.0 percent in 2017 as the effects of fuel price liberalization fade.
Inflation is expected to moderate in 2018 and 2019 in Sub-Saharan Africa, but is expected to remain double digits in key large economies reflecting the pass-through effects of currency depreciation and their impact on inflation expectations in Angola, supply factors, and assumed monetary policy accommodation to support fiscal policy (Nigeria).
Oil prices have continued to increase, due to supply outages, the extension of the production agreement of OPEC members, and stronger global economic
109
growth.
Metal prices increased by 8.3 percent between August 2017 and February 2018. The increase in price is attributed to the solid growth in global economy and a wider demand-supply gap for all base metals specially aluminum.The IMF agriculture price index, which consists of food, beverages, and agricultural raw materials prices, has increased by 4.1 percent from August 2017 to February 2018. The sub-indices of food and agricultural raw materials rose by 4.1 and 6.0 percent, respectively. The beverages index declined by 3.6 percent as results of a substantial decline in the price of coffee (by 12.7 percent) while the gain in the index of raw agricultural materials was due to the increase in the price of cotton.
8.1.4. Exchange Rate
Between August 2017 and March 2018, the U.S. dollar weakened modestly in real effective terms by about 1.5 percent. The euro has appreciated by 1 percent and becomes 4 percent stronger than its 2017 average. The Japanese yen has remained broadly stable, while the British pond appreciated by 5.5 percent. Among emerging market currencies, the Chinese renminbi appreciated by 3.5 percent in real effective terms. The South African rand rebounded by 10 percent on reduced political uncertainty and the Malaysian ringgit by over 8 percent in line with improved growth outlook and stronger commodity prices. The Turkish lira depreciated by more than 10 percent on account of the higher inflation.
8.2 Implications of International Economic Developments on the Ethiopia Economy
Global growth strengthened and marked improvements in 2017 due to recovery in investment in advanced economies and continued strong growth in emerging Asia and signs of recovery in several commodity exporters. Economic activity in both advanced economies and emerging & developing economies is forecast to accelerate in 2018.
Oil prices have continued to increase, due to supply outages, the extension of the production agreement of OPEC members, and stronger global economic growth. The increase in oil price during 2017/18 has increased the country’s import bills during the period.
On the other hand, the beverages index declined as results of a substantial decline in the price of coffee. The decrease in the price of coffee in the international market reduced Ethiopia’s export earnings from coffee which is the major export item of the country.

NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIAINDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORTTO THE SUPERVISING AUTHORITY OFNATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA (Continued)
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of National bank of Ethiopia (the Bank), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2018, and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Bank as at 30 June 2018 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Bank in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants )IESBA Code( together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Ethiopia, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with those requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIAINDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORTTO THE SUPERVISING AUTHORITY OFNATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA (Continued)
A. First time adoption of IFRS
As was required by Financial Reporting Proclamation No. 847/2014, the Bank has prepared financial statements in accordance with IFRS issued by IASB. This required a long process including restatements of the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2016 and of the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017. Not only was it necessary for the Bank to ensure that the restated financial statements complied with all applicable Standards, but it was also essential to discover information that was not previously needed when preparing previous financial reports. The possibilities for omissions and clerical errors were many. Therefore, we checked compliance with IFRS, as to measurement and disclosure requirements, in detail; we also checked how crucial information was obtained and we verified significant calculations exhaustively. Our audit procedures did not identify significant errors in compliance with IFRS or in related calculations.
B. Revenue and expenses
There are risks that interest income and expenses may not be properly calculated and recorded. We compared the current year’s income and expenditure with the prior to analyse the variations. We enquired and documented the reasons for variations. We selected samples of recorded interest income and expense and checked their computation and examined supporting documentation to verify the correctness of the amounts recorded. We also checked the system for recording exchange commission income and gain on foreign exchange and checked sample recorded balances. Based on our assessment we found no concerns regarding revenue and expense recognition. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Bank’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intendeds to liquidate the Banks or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Bank’s financial reporting process
114 2017/18 Annual Report
NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIAINDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORTTO THE SUPERVISING AUTHORITY OFNATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA (Continued)
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Bank’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Bank to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIAINDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORTTO THE SUPERVISING AUTHORITY OFNATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIA (Continued)
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued)
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Woizero Azeb Teklesilassie.

120 2017/18 Annual Report
NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIANOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(in Ethiopian Birr)
1. Reporting entity
National Bank of Ethiopia (“the Bank”) is the Central Bank of Ethiopia. It was established by Order No. 30/1963 as an autonomous institution. It is governed by the National Bank of Ethiopia Establishment (as Amended) Proclamation No. 591/2008 and is wholly owned by the Government of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia.
Its principal place of business is Addis Ababa.
It operates as the central bank of Ethiopia and acts as the banker, advisor and agent of the Government of Ethiopia and is predominantly in one geographical area.
2. Basis of preparation
(a) Statement of compliance
The accompanying financial statements of the Bank have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
These are the Bank’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS; therefore, IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards has been applied. For all periods up to and including the year ended 30 June 2018, the Bank previously prepared its financial statements in accordance with local generally accepted accounting practice (hereafter referred to as “Previously Local GAAP”).
An explanation of how the transition to IFRS has affected the previously reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Bank under Previous Local GAAP is provided in note 31.
On 15 May 2020, the Governor authorized the issuance of the accompanying financial statements.
(b) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the following significant items:
1. Equity instruments measured at fair value;2. Financial instruments measured at amortised cost; 3. Financial instruments measured at fair value;4. Monetary gold measured at fair value; 5. Property and equipment items measured at fair value as at transition date; and6. The liability for defined benefit obligations is recognized as the present value of the
defined obligation less the net total of the plan assets, plus unrecognized actuarial gains less unrecognized past service cost and unrecognized actuarial losses.

Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Bank operates (the “Functional currency”).
The financial statements are presented in Ethiopian Birr (ETB), which is the Bank’s functional currency and all values are rounded to the nearest Birr, except when otherwise indicated.
(c) Use of judgments and estimates
In preparing these financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Bank’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.
Judgments
Information about judgement made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is included in the following notes:
Note 3 (a (ii)) - Classification of financial assets: assessment of the business model within which the assets are held and assessment of whether the contractual terms of the financial assets are SPPI on the principal amount outstanding.
Note 3 (a (viii)) - Establishing the criteria for determining whether credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, determining methodology for incorporating forward-looking information into measurement of ECL and selection and approval of models used to measure ECL.
Note 3 (d) - Leases; whether an arrangement contains a lease.

Assumptions and estimation of uncertainties Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in the year ending 30 June 2018 are set out below:
Note 3 ((a (i; ii)) – identification and measurement of financial instruments;Note 3 (b) and Note (c) – useful lives and salvage value of tangible and intangible assets;Note 3 (j) – measurement of defined benefits obligations: key actuarial assumptions; andNote 3 (i) and Note 3 (s) – recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies.Note 3 (a) (viii) - impairment of financial instruments: key assumptions used in estimating recoverable cash flows.
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements.
(d) Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies on a day to day basis are recorded at the respective buying and selling rate. The closing balance on these foreign currency accounts at the close of business are translated using the mid-exchange rate.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the mid-exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between the amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortized cost in the foreign currency translated at the mid-exchange rate at the end of the year.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the spot exchange rate at the date on which the fair value is determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the spot exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency differences arising on translation are generally recognised in profit or loss.

(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities
(i) Recognition and initial measurement
The Bank initially recognizes cash, loans and advances, deposits and debt securities on the date on which they are originated. All other financial instruments (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss) are initially recognized on the trade date on which the Bank becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
(ii) Classification and measurement
a. Financial assets:
On initial recognition, financial assets are classified into one of the following measurement categories:
• Amortised cost;• Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI);• Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL);• Elected at fair value through other comprehensive income (equities only); or• Designated at FVTPL
Financial assets include both debt and equity instruments.
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:• the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect
contractual cash flows; and• the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows
that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A debt instrument is measured at FVOCI only if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:� the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and� the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Bank may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in fair value in OCI. This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.
All other financial assets are classified as measured at FVTPL.

In addition, on initial recognition, the Bank may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
Debt instruments, including loans and debt securities, are classified into one of the following measurement categories:
• Amortised cost;• Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI);• Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL); or• Designated at FVTPL
Classification of debt instruments is determined based on:(i) The business model under which the asset is held; and(ii) The contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument.
Business model assessment
Business model assessment involves determining how financial assets are managed in order to generate cash flows. The Bank’s business model assessment is based on the following categories:
• Held to collect: The objective of the business model is to hold assets and collect contractual cash flows. Any sales of the asset are incidental to the objective of the model.
• Held to collect and for sale: Both collecting contractual cash flows and sales are integral to achieving the objectives of the business model.
• Other business model: The business model is neither held-to-collect nor held-to-collect and for sale.
The Bank makes an assessment of the objective of a business model in which an asset is held at a portfolio level because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes:

Business model assessment (continued)
• the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice. In particular, whether management’s strategy focuses on earning contractual interest revenue, maintaining a particular interest rate profile, matching the duration of the financial assets to the duration of the liabilities that are funding those assets or realising cash flows through the sale of the assets;
• how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Bank’s management;
• the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and how those risks are managed;
• how managers of the business are compensated – e.g. whether compensation is based on the fair value of the assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected; and
• the frequency, volume and timing of sales in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and its expectations about future sales activity. However, information about sales activity is not considered in isolation, but as part of an overall assessment of how the Bank’s stated objective for managing the financial assets is achieved and how cash flows are realised.
Financial assets that are held for trading or managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL because they are neither held to collect contractual cash flows nor held both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell financial assets.
Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest
The contractual cash flow characteristics assessment involves assessing the contractual features of an instrument to determine if they give rise to cash flows that are consistent with a basic lending arrangement. Contractual cash flows are consistent with a basic lending arrangement if they represent cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding (SPPI).
For the purposes of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs (e.g. liquidity risk and administrative costs), as well as profit margin.

(ii) Classification and measurement (continued)
a. Financial assets (continued): Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest (continued)
In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Bank considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making the assessment, the Bank considers:
• contingent events that would change the amount and timing of cash flows;• leverage features;• prepayment and extension terms;• terms that limit the Bank’s claim to cash flows from specified assets (e.g. non-recourse
asset arrangements); and• features that modify consideration of the time value of money – e.g. periodical reset
of interest rates.
Debt instruments measured at amortized cost
Debt instruments are measured at amortized cost if they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest. After initial measurement, debt instruments in this category are carried at amortized cost. Interest income on these instruments is recognized in interest income using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition, transaction costs and fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate.
Impairment on debt instruments measured at amortized cost is calculated using the expected credit loss approach. Loans and debt securities measured at amortized cost are presented net of the allowance for credit losses (ACL) in the statement of financial position.

Debt instruments measured at FVOCI
Debt instruments are measured at FVOCI if they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling financial assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent payments that are solely payments of principal and interest. Subsequent to initial recognition, unrealized gains and losses on debt instruments measured at FVOCI are recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI). Upon derecognition, realized gains and losses are reclassified from OCI and recorded in Non-interest income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income on an average cost basis. Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to the amortized cost of the debt instrument are recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
Premiums, discounts and related transaction costs are amortized over the expected life of the instrument to Interest income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income using the effective interest rate method.
Impairment on debt instruments measured at FVOCI is calculated using the expected credit loss approach. The allowance for credit losses (ACL) on debt instruments measured at FVOCI does not reduce the carrying amount of the asset in the Statement of Financial Position, which remains at its fair value. Instead, an amount equal to the allowance that would arise if the assets were measured at amortised cost is recognised in OCI with a corresponding charge to provision for credit losses in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. The accumulated allowance recognised in OCI is recycled to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income upon derecognition of the debt instrument.

Debt instruments measured at FVTPL
Debt instruments are measured at FVTPL if assets:i) Are held for trading purposes;ii) Are held as part of a portfolio managed on a fair value basis; oriii) Whose cash flows do not represent payments that are solely payments of principal
and interest.
These instruments are measured at fair value in the Statement of Financial Position, with transaction costs recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as part of Non-interest income. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized as part of Non-interest income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
Debt instruments designated at FVTPL
Financial assets classified in this category are those that have been designated by the Bank upon initial recognition, and once designated, the designation is irrevocable. The FVTPL designation is available only for those financial assets for which a reliable estimate of fair value can be obtained.
Financial assets are designated at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch which would otherwise arise. The decision to designate relates to assets that otherwise meet requirements to be measured at amortised cost or as at FVOCI but are designated as at FVTPL to reduce account mismatch.
Financial assets designated at FVTPL are recorded in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in Non-interest income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
Equity instruments
Equity instruments are classified into one of the following measurement categories:
• Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL); or• Elected at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

Equity instruments measured at FVTPL
Equity instruments are measured at FVTPL, unless an election is made to designate them at FVOCI upon purchase, with transaction costs recognized immediately in the Statement of Income as part of Non-interest income. Subsequent to initial recognition the changes in fair value are recognized as part of Non-interest income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
Equity instruments measured at FVOCI
At initial recognition, there is an irrevocable option for the Bank to classify non-trading equity instruments at FVOCI. This election is used for certain equity investments for strategic or longer term investment purposes. This election is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is not available to equity instruments that are held for trading purposes.
Gains and losses on these instruments including when derecognized/sold are recorded in OCI and are not subsequently reclassified to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. As such, there is no specific impairment requirement.
Dividends received are recorded in Interest income in the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income. Any transaction costs incurred upon purchase of the security are added to the cost basis of the security and are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income on sale of the security.
Reclassifications
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except in the period after the Bank changes its business model for managing financial assets.

a. Financial liabilities
The Bank classifies its financial liabilities, other than financial guarantees and loan commitments, as measured at amortised cost.
The financial instruments at NBE have been classified into one of the following categories and their measurement criteria defined as follows based on their nature and business purpose:

Financial assets
The Bank derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Bank neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount of the asset (or the carrying amount allocated to the portion of the asset derecognized) and the sum of (i) the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and (ii) any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in OCI is recognized in profit or loss.

(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)
(iii) Derecognition (continued)
Financial assets (continued)
Any cumulative gain/loss recognized in OCI in respect of equity investment securities designated as at FVOCI is not recognized in profit or loss on derecognition of such securities. Any interest in transferred financial assets that qualify for derecognition that is created or retained by the Bank is recognized as a separate asset or liability.
In transactions in which the Bank neither retains nor transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset and it retains control over the asset, the Bank continues to recognize the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement, determined by the extent to which it is exposed to changes in the value of the transferred asset.
Financial liabilities:
The Bank derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.
(iv) Modifications of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets:
If the terms of a financial asset are modified, the Bank evaluates whether the cash flows of the modified asset are substantially different. If the cash flows are substantially different, then the contractual rights to cash flows from the original financial asset are deemed to have expired. In this case, the original financial asset is derecognized and a new financial asset is recognized at fair value.
If the terms of a financial asset were modified because of financial difficulties of the borrower and the asset was not derecognized, then impairment of the asset was measured using the pre-modification interest rate.
Financial liabilities:
The Bank derecognizes a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the new financial liability with modified terms is recognized in profit or loss.

(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)
(v) Offsetting
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Bank has a legally enforceable right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Income and expenses are presented on a net basis only when permitted under IFRS, or for gains and losses arising from a group of similar transactions such as in the Bank’s trading activity.
(vi) Amortized cost measurement
The ‘amortized cost’ of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition, minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount recognized and the maturity amount, minus any reduction for impairment.
(vii) Fair value measurement‘Fair value’ is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous market to which the Bank has access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk.
When available, the Bank measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Bank uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.
(viii) Impairment
The Bank recognises loss allowances for ECL on the following financial instruments that are not measured at FVTPL:
• financial assets that are debt instruments;• lease receivables;• financial guarantee contracts issued; and• loan commitments issued.

(in Ethiopian Birr)
3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)
(viii) Impairment (continued)
No impairment loss is recognised on equity investments.
The Bank measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECL, except for the following, for which they are measured as 12-month ECL: debt investment securities that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting
date; and other financial instruments (other than lease receivables) on which credit risk has not
increased significantly since their initial recognition.
Loss allowances for lease receivables are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL.
At each reporting date, the Bank assesses whether there is objective evidence that financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss are impaired. A financial asset is ‘impaired’ when objective evidence demonstrates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset(s) and that the loss event has an impact on the future cash flows of the asset(s) that can be estimated reliably.
The Bank considers a debt security to have low credit risk when their credit risk rating is equivalent to the globally understood definition of ‘investment grade’.
12-month ECL is the portion of ECL that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date.
Measurement of ECL
ECL is a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. They are measured as follows:• financial assets that are not credit-impaired at the reporting date: as the present
value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Bank expects to receive);
• financial assets that are credit-impaired at the reporting date: as the difference between the gross carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows;
• undrawn loan commitments: as the present value of the difference between the contractual cash flows that are due to the Bank if the commitment is drawn down and the cash flows that the Bank expects to receive; and
• financial guarantee contracts: the expected payments to reimburse the holder less any amounts that the Bank expects to recover.

(viii) Impairment (continued)
Restructured financial assets
If the terms of a financial asset are renegotiated or modified or an existing financial asset is replaced with a new one due to financial difficulties of the borrower, then an assessment is made of whether the financial asset should be derecognised and ECL are measured as follows.• If the expected restructuring will not result in derecognition of the existing asset, then
the expected cash flows arising from the modified financial asset are included in calculating the cash shortfalls from the existing asset.
• If the expected restructuring will result in derecognition of the existing asset, then the expected fair value of the new asset is treated as the final cash flow from the existing financial asset at the time of its derecognition. This amount is included in calculating the cash shortfalls from the existing financial asset that are discounted from the expected date of derecognition to the reporting date using the original effective interest rate of the existing financial asset.
Credit-impaired financial assets
At each reporting date, the Bank assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost and debt financial assets carried at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.
Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:• significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;• a breach of contract such as a default or past due event;• the restructuring of a loan or advance by the Bank on terms that the Bank would not consider otherwise;• it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial
reorganisation;or• the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties.
A loan that has been renegotiated due to a deterioration in the borrower’s condition is usually considered to be credit-impaired unless there is evidence that the risk of not receiving contractual cash flows has reduced significantly and there are no other indicators of impairment.

(a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)
(viii) Impairment (continued)
Credit-impaired financial assets (continued)
In making an assessment of whether an investment in sovereign debt is credit-impaired, the Bank considers the following factors:• The market’s assessment of creditworthiness as reflected in the bond yields.• The rating agencies’ assessments of creditworthiness.• The country’s ability to access the capital markets for new debt issuance.• The probability of debt being restructured, resulting in holders suffering losses through
voluntary or mandatory debt forgiveness.
There are also international support mechanisms in place to provide the necessary support to NBE as ‘lender of last resort’ to that country, as well as the intention, reflected in public statements, of governments and agencies to use those mechanisms. This includes an assessment of the depth of those mechanisms and, irrespective of the political intent, whether there is the capacity to fulfil the required criteria.
Presentation of allowance for ECL in the statement of financial position
Loss allowances for ECL are presented in the statement of financial position as follows:• financial assets measured at amortised cost: as a deduction from the gross carrying
amount of the assets;• loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts: generally, as a provision;• where a financial instrument includes both a drawn and an undrawn component, and
the Bank cannot identify the ECL on the loan commitment component separately from those on the drawn component: the Bank presents a combined loss allowance for both components. The combined amount is presented as a deduction from the gross carrying amount of the drawn component. Any excess of the loss allowance over the gross amount of the drawn component is presented as a provision; and
• debt instruments measured at FVOCI: no loss allowance is recognised in the statement of financial position because the carrying amount of these assets is their fair value. However, the loss allowance is disclosed and is recognised in the fair value reserve.
Write-off
Loans and debt securities are written off (either partially or in full) when there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Bank determines that the borrower does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Bank’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

(b) Property and equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of property and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalized borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation and cumulative impairment losses.
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
If significant parts of an item of property or equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property and equipment.
Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property and equipment, and are recognized net within operating and administrative expenses in profit or loss.
(ii) Subsequent costs
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it is probable that the future economic benefits of the expenditure will flow to the Bank. Ongoing repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property and equipment less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognized in profit or loss. Land is not depreciated.
The estimate useful lives of significant items of property and equipment are as follows:
● Building 5%● Furniture and fittings 20%● Office and other equipment 20% ● Motor vehicles 20%
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.

(c) Intangible assets
(i) Software
Software acquired by the Bank is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
Subsequent expenditure on software assets is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.
Software is amortized on a straight-line basis in profit or loss over its estimated useful life, from the date on which it is available for use. The estimated useful life of software for the current and comparative periods is 5 years and the same is depreciated at a rate of 20%.
Amortization methods and useful lives are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
(d) Leases (i) Bank acting as a lessee
The Bank recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial costs incurred.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the Bank’s incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in a rate.
After the commencement date, the Bank measures the right-of-use asset applying a cost model (cost less any cumulative depreciation and any cumulative impairment). In the case of the lease liability, the Bank measures it by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made, and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments.

(d) Leases (continued) (i) Bank acting as a lessee (continued)
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assetsThe Bank has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases of equipment that have a lease of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets defined as those below ETB 135,000. The Bank recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(ii) Bank acting as a lessor – Finance leases
Where the Bank is the lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each of its leases is an operating or finance lease.
Finance lease
A lease agreement that transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the asset to the lessee, then the arrangement is classified as a finance lease and a receivable equal to the net investment in the lease is recognized and presented within receivable.
At the commencement date, the Bank recognizes assets held under a finance lease in its statement of financial position and present them as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease. After the initial measurement, the Bank recognize finance income over the lease term, based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor’s net investment in the lease.
Operating lease
A lease agreement that does not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the asset to the lease is classified as an operating lease.
The Bank recognizes lease payments from operating leases as income on either a straight-line basis or another systematic basis. The Bank applies another systematic basis if that basis is more representative of the pattern in which benefit from the use of the underlying asset is diminished.

(e) Taxes
The Bank is exempt from income tax as defined under article 23 of Proclamation No. 591/2008.
(f) Accounting for currency expenses
Bank notes and coins costs are charged to profit or loss in the year in which the notes and coins are issued.
(g) Currency in circulation
Notes and coins in circulation are recorded at fair value. The fair value of notes and coins approximates their carrying value and represents the nominal value of all bank notes and coins held by the public and commercial banks.
(h) Inventories
The bank holds gold and office consumables as inventory. Included in the office consumables are spare parts, stationery ítems, fuel and lubricants, tyres and inner tubes and cleaning and sanitary ítems.
Gold inventory is initially measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value while office consumables are measured at cost.
Cost of inventories comprises of purchase price (after deducting trade discounts), and related tax and duty for imports, any costs directly attributable to the acquisition of the stock item such as transport costs, labour costs, unpacking, temporary warehousing fees and inspection costs and destination charges in case of imports.
Net realisable value is the price at which the inventory can be realised in the normal course of business after allowing for costs of realisation. The cost of inventories to the Bank is determined on a First in First Out (FIFO) basis.
(i) Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably as at the Statement of Financial Position date, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions at NBE are recognized in respect of legal cases and e mployee bonus payments.

(j) Employee benefits
(i) Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Bank accounts not only for its legal obligation but also for any constructive obligation that arise from the Bank’s customary practices. A customary practice in place gives rise to a constructive obligation where the Bank has no realistic alternatives but to pay employee benefits.
The Bank’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. The benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and any unrecognized past service costs and the fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The discount rate is the yield at the reporting date on governmental bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Bank’s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.
The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. This method takes into account various parameters, specific to the Ethiopia market such as demographic assumptions, the probability that employees will leave before retirement age, salary inflation, a discount rate, general inflation rate as well as any other relevant financial assumptions. The net liability recognized with respect to post-employment benefit plans is the difference between the present value of the defined-benefit obligation and the fair value of any plan assets, if any.
When the benefits of a plan are improved, the portion of the increased benefit relating to past service by employees is recognized in profit or loss during which the services are rendered. The annual expenses recognized in the profit or loss statement under “Salaries and employee benefits” with respect to defined-benefit plans includes the current service cost (the rights vested by each employee during the period in return for service rendered), the net interests linked to the effect of discounting the net defined-benefit liability, the past service cost arising from plan amendments or curtailments, and the effect of any plan settlements.
Remeasurements of the net defined-benefit liability are recognized in other comprehensive income in the period they arise and are never reclassified to profit or loss. These include: all actuarial gains and losses arising from defined benefit plans.

(j) Employee benefits (continued)
(ii) Short-term benefits
Short-term benefit obligations consist of salaries, bonuses and any non-monetary benefits. They exclude the following benefits which are expected to be paid over periods exceeding 12 months: funeral expenses; medical expenses for pension employees; prize pay; severance pay and leave benefits. Short-term benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonuses if the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past services provided by the employees, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(iii) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are employee benefits payable in exchange for the termination of an employee’s contract as a result of either a decision by the Bank to terminate a contract of employment before legal retirement age, or a decision by an employee to accept voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. Some of the termination benefits at NBE include: severance payments.
Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Bank can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Bank recognizes costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be wholly settled within 12 months of the reporting date, then they are discounted.
(iv) Long-term benefits
These are benefits, other than short-term benefits, post-employment benefits and termination benefits. These benefits relate to compensation deferred for more than 12 months, which is accrued in the financial statements for the period in which it is earned.
The actuarial techniques used are similar to those used for defined-benefit post-employment benefits except that the revaluation items are recognized in the profit or loss and not in equity.

(k) General reserve
The General reserve is defined in the NBE proclamation No. 591/2008. The balance of this reserve fund is dependent on the Capital amount. The limit of the General reserve should equal the Capital account.
The proclamation defines that 20% of annual profits be transferred to the General reserves till it equals the Capital. The purpose of the fund is to protect the Bank against any profit fluctuations. When the Bank experiences any losses during the year, these are transferred to the General reserve.
(l) Revenues
Revenue comprises of;● Interest income (Note 3 (m))● Revenue from gold (Note 3(n))● Fee and commission (Note 3(n))
(m) Interest
Effective interest rate
Interest income and expense are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to:
• the gross carrying amount of the financial assets; or• the amortized cost of the financial liability.
When calculating the effective interest rate for financial instruments other than credit-impaired assets, the Bank estimates future cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument, but not future credit losses. For credit-impaired financial assets, a credit adjusted effective interest rate is calculating using estimated future cash flows including expected credit losses.
The calculation of the effective interest rate includes transaction costs, fees and points paid or received that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Transaction costs include incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of a financial asset or financial liability.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
(m) Interest (continued)
Amortized cost and gross carrying amount
The amortized cost of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured on initial recognition minus the principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount and, for financial assets, adjusted for any expected credit loss allowance.
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is the amortized cost of a financial asset before adjusting for any expected credit loss.
Calculation of interest income and expenses
In calculating interest income and expenses, the effective interest rate is applied to the gross carrying amount of the asset (when the asset is not credit-impaired) or to the amortized cost of the liability.
However, for financial assets that have become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the financial asset. If the asset is no longer credit-impaired, then the calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis.
For financial assets that were credit-impaired on initial recognition, interest income is calculated by applying the credit-adjusted effective interest rate to the amortized cost of the asset. The calculation of interest income does not revert to a gross basis, even if the credit risk of the asset improves.
Presentation of interest income and expenses
Interest income and expense presented in the statement of profit or loss and OCI include:• interest on financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
calculated on an effective interest basis;• interest on debt instruments measured at FVOCI calculated on an effective interest
basis; and• interest expense on lease liabilities.
Interest income and expense on all assets and liabilities are considered to be incidental to the Bank’s trading operations and are presented together with all other changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities in net trading income.

(n) Revenues from contracts with customers
Revenue from sale of gold, fee and commission income from contracts with customers is based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Bank recognizes revenue when it transfers control over a good or service to a customer.
The following table provides information about the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations in contracts with customers, including significant terms, and the related revenue recognition policies.
Type of product (good or(service
Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations,including significant payment terms
Gold NBE recognizes revenue from gold when the customer receives right and ownership of the gold. This occurs when a deal is struck between the Bank and the customer on pricing.and the customer takes possession of the product
The Bank’s performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time.when the gold is delivered to the customer
Fee and commission income The Bank provides foreign currency transactions services to resident and non-resident entities trading in Ethiopia. It also provide services relating to selling gold, issuance of bonds and.treasury bills on behalf of the government
Transaction based fees are charged to the customer when the transaction takes place. The Bank’s performance obligations.are satisfied at a point in time
(o) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive income is established. Usually, this is the ex-dividend date for quoted equity securities. Dividends are presented in net trading income, net income from other financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVPTL) or other revenue based on the underlying classification of the equity investment.
(p) Due from Government of Ethiopia
Balances due from the Government of Ethiopia arise from the following transactions: — Direct advances bearing interest at 3% per annum, issued with no maturity date; — Bonds bearing interest at the rate of 2% per annum which mature on 11 June 2019 and 5 September 2020; and— Non-interest bearing bond that is expected to mature in 2030.
Other than non interest bearing bonds which are measured at fair value by discounting them using a market related interest rate, all other balances due from the Government of Ethiopia are measured at amortized cost.

(q) Funds held at/due to International Monetary Fund (IMF)
Ethiopia has been a member of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) since 1966. The Bank is the designated depository for IMF’s holdings of Ethiopia’s currency. IMF currency holdings are held in the No. 1 and No. 2 Accounts, which are deposit accounts of the IMF with the Bank.
Borrowings from and repayments to the IMF are denominated in Special Drawing Rights (SDRs). The SDR balances in IMF accounts are translated into Birr at the prevailing exchange rates and any unrealized gains or losses are accounted for in accordance with accounting policy on foreign currencies.
(r) Gold
NBE is mandated by the Government to buy gold deposits locally and sell the same in international markets. NBE works in conjuction with the Ministry of Mines and Ethiopian Geology survey to undertake gold purchase activities. The Ministry is responsible for verifying purity of gold purchased by the Bank. NBE recognizes three types of gold transactions which are: gold commodity; gold in transit and monetary gold.
Gold commodity comprises of raw gold sourced locally before it is refined and sold abroad as well as gold bullion. Gold commodity not sold at year end is considered as inventory and is measured at lower of cost or net realizable value.
Gold in transit refers to gold that is held by the refineries or is in transit to refineries before it is processed to gold bullion. It is measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Monetary gold refers to gold that is held at foreign reserves for monetary policy purposes. NBE invests a maximum of 8,000 ounces of gold in the form of time deposits at Commerz Bank. Monetary gold is measured at fair value with gains and losses being recognized in statement of other comprehensive income (OCI).
(s) Contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount thereof can be reasonably estimated. When a reasonable estimation cannot be made, disclosure is provided in the notes to the financial statements. Contingent revenues, earnings or assets are not recognized until realization is assured.

(u) New Standards, amendments and interpretations
(i) New standards, amendments and interpretations effective and adopted during the period ended 30 June 2018
The Bank has early adopted the following new standards and amendments during the period ended 30 June 2018. The nature and effects of the changes are explained below: New standard or amendments Effective for financial period be-
ginning on or after- Revenue contracts with customers (IFRS 15) 1 July 2018- Leases (IFRS 16) 1 July 2019- Financial instruments (IFRS 9) 1 July 2018- Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (Amendments to IFRS 9)
1 July 2019
Revenue contracts with customers (IFRS 15)
This standard contains a single model that applies to contracts with customers and two approaches to recognising revenue: at a point in time or over time. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The bank recognises revenue when it transfers a service to a customer. Refer to Note 6 for the impact the adoption of this standard has had on the financial statements of the Bank. Leases (IFRS 16)
The Bank recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received. Refer to Note 16 for the impact the adoption of this standard has had on the financials statements of the Bank.

(i) New standards, amendments and interpretations effective and adopted during the period ended 30 June 2018 (continued) Financial instruments (IFRS 9) and Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (Amendments to IFRS 9)
IFRS 9 drives changes in the measurement bases of the Bank’s financial assets to amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income of fair value through profit or loss. The standard also defines measurement of impairment from an “incurred loss” model under IAS 39 to an “expected credit loss” model. The amendments to IFRS 9 clarify that financial assets containing prepayment features with negative compensation can now be measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) if they meet the other relevant requirements of IFRS 9. Refer to Notes 9, 10 and 15 for the impact the adoption of this standard has had on the financial statements of the Bank.
(ii) New and amended standards in issue but not yet effective during the period ended 30 June 2018
The following new standards and amendments are in issue but are not yet effective during the year ended 30 June 2018, including consequential amendments to other standards with the date of initial application by the Bank being 1 July 2018.

(u) New Standards, amendments and interpretations (continued)
(ii) New and amended standards in issue but not yet effective during the period ended 30 June 2018 (continued) The impact of the standards that are applicable to the Bank will be as follows:
IFRIC Interpretation 22 Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration
This Interpretation applies to a foreign currency transaction (or part of it) when an entity recognises a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration before the entity recognises the related asset, expense or income (or part of it).
This Interpretation stipulates that the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income (or part of it) is the date on which an entity initially recognises the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration.
This Interpretation does not apply to income taxes, insurance contracts and circumstances when an entity measures the related asset, expense or income on initial recognition:
(a) at fair value; or(b) at the fair value of the consideration paid or received at a date other than the date
of initial recognition of the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from advance consideration (for example, the measurement of goodwill applying IFRS 3 Business Combinations).
The amendments apply retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early application permitted.
The management is still assessing the impact of adoption of these changes on the amounts and disclosures of the Bank’s financial statements.

Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments to IAS 19)
The IASB’s amendments to IAS 19 address the accounting when a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement occurs during a reporting period.
The amendments clarify that:• on amendment, curtailment or settlement of a defined benefit plan, it is now mandatory
for entities to use the updated actuarial assumptions to determine the current service cost and net interest for the period; and
• the effect of the asset ceiling is disregarded when calculating the gain or loss on any settlement of the plan and is dealt with separately in other comprehensive income (OCI).
The management is still assessing the impact of adoption of these changes on the amounts and disclosures of the Bank’s financial statements.

The Bank’s inventories comprise office consumables such as spare parts, stationary items, uniforms, stocks of facilities for office equipment, buildings, sorting and shredding machine, cleaning and sanitary materials, fuel and lubricant, tyres and inner tubes. These inventories are not meant for resale and are therefore measured at cost.
The Bank has adopted a policy to recognize such inventory at cost and thereby expense the costs as the stocks are used.

NBE calculated lease related assets and liabilities per its accounting policy disclosed on Note 3 (d). As a lender of last resort, the Bank is not subject to conventional borrowing patterns of a conventional commercial bank. In the event that the Bank had to borrow funds equivalent to the value of the right of use asset, the Bank would be financed by the Government through issuance of a bond. The Bank used an incremental borrowing rate that is equivalent to the Grand Renaissance bond issued by the government. As at 1 July 2016, the Grand Renaissance bond was issued at a rate of 6%. The Bank adopted this rate as its incremental borrowing rate for purposes of computing its lease liabilities.

These deposits are denominated in both domestic and foreign currencies with domestic deposits earning interest at the rate of 3% pa. The obligation arising from NBE holding these deposits is measured at cost i.e. the actual value of the deposit. The finance cost is recognized as an expense in the statement of profit or loss over the period NBE holds the deposit.

The Bank is currently involved in a labour case whose monetary value is ETB 83,048. The ruling on this case is yet to be determined as at 30 June 2018.

26. Capital and other Reserves (a) Capital
Capital is defined in the NBE proclamation No. 591/2008 and has been set at ETB 500 M (2017: ETB 500 M) as per parliamentary mandate. Any changes in the Capital are determined through review of economic policy issues and the need to manage macro-economic policy issues and maintain market stability.
Capital is meant to act as a risk management tool and covers the Bank against any risk and also prevents insolvency. The Bank is wholly owned by the Government of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia.
(b) General reserve
The General Reserve is a statutory reserve and is defined in the NBE proclamation No. 591/2008. The Balance of this reserve is dependent on the Capital amount. The proclamation defines that 20% of annual profits be transferred to the General reserve till it equals Capital.
The purpose of this reserve is to protect the Bank against any profit fluctuations. In the event that the Bank experiences any losses during the year, these are transferred to the General reserve.
The current limit of the General Reserve has been met since it equals the Capital account’s current balance of ETB 500 M. No further transfers to this reserve are required for now.
(c) International reserve valuation
This reserve was set up to absorb foreign currency gains and losses during translation. The NBE proclamation and parliamentary directives have not set any limits or thresholds for this reserve.
The balance of this reserve account is not available for distribution since it relates to unrealized effects from foreign currency translations.
(d) Retained Earnings
This reserve acts as a temporary reserve. The proclamation states that 20% of annual profits be transferred to the General reserve till it matches the Capital. After this limit has been reached, all profits earned during the year are transferred to the Ministry of Finance (MOF) as dividends.
(e) Fair value reserve
This reserve comprises the cumulative net change in the fair value changes on financial instruments (non-interest bearing bond, CBE certificate of deposit), investment securities and monetary gold. All unrealized gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and credited to the fair value reserve until the investment is derecognized or impaired.

(f) Defined benefit reserve
This reserve represents the present value of the defined benefit obligation that the Bank has set aside to enable pay-out of employees’ long-term and post-employment liabilities as they fall due. This reserve is not available for distribution.
(g) Other reserve
This reserve arises from the IFRS transition adjustments. This reserve is not available for distribution.
27. Financial risk review
The Bank is involved in policy-oriented activities including targeted inflationary monetary policy using monetary controlling instruments. With this regard, the Bank’s risk management framework differs from the risk management frameworks for commercial banks because of the difference in their perspective objectives and the nature of assets and liabilities. The Bank’s overall risk management programme focuses on the Bank’s role of maintaining price and exchange rate stability and supporting sustainable economic growth.
The Bank is exposed to a wide array of risks such as foreign currency liquidity, credit, foreign exchange rate, interest rate and gold price movement risks. Financial risk management requires identifying sources of risks, measuring of risks, and designing and implementing appropriate risk management tools, techniques and structure.
The Financial risks have been measured using foreign exchange liquidity gap, interest sensitive asset-liability gap, single foreign currency asset-liability open positions, and credit risk exposure measurement techniques. The major sources of Bank’s financial risks are mismatches of assets and liabilities, counter party failure to repay the balances, changes in foreign exchange and interest rate as well as movement in gold prices.
a.) Financial risks (continued)
The responsibility for risk management is decentralized and is carried out by the different directorates with the Board of Directors providing oversight role. A Risk management team is responsible for advising the management on the monitoring and management of all risks that the Bank faces. The Internal Audit and Risk Management Directorate (IAMRD) is responsible for the development and regular update of the Risk Management Framework. The Directorate regularly reviews and monitors the implementation and effectiveness of the risk management process, including the development of an appropriate risk management culture across the Bank.

a.) Financial risks include:● Credit risk● Market risks including: Interest rate risk; Gold commodity price risk and Foreign exchange risk
b.) Liquidity risk
c.) Non-financial risks include:● Operational risk● Human resource risk● Reputational risk● Cyber security risk assessment
i.) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from the failure of a borrower, issuer, counterparty or customer to meet its financial obligation to the Bank. Credit risk could result from complete or partial failure of the counterparties to fulfill their contractual financial obligations with the Bank in accordance with agreed terms or from change in credit quality.
Credit risk exposures arise from investment securities, balances due from banking institutions, funds held with IMF, loans and advances as well as other assets. The Bank has no significant concentrations of credit risk except for the securities relating to Government of Ethiopia.
Management of credit risk is through a choice of depository banks. The Bank’s choice of depository banks is confined to top international banks that meet the set eligibility criteria of financial soundness on long-term credit rating (A), short-term credit rating (F1), composite rating and capital adequacy.
The amount that best represents the Bank’s maximum exposure to credit risk is per the statement of financial position.The Bank assesses the credit quality of these assets. None of the balances have had their terms renegotiated as a result of non-performance. Management monitors the credit exposure of staff on a continuous basis, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.

Impairment of loans is recognised - on an individual or collective basis - in three stages under IFRS 9. Stage 1 refers to defualt events that are possible within the next 12 months from loan origination. Stage 2 refers to significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. Stage 3 refers to an increase in a loan’s credit risk to the point where it is considered credit-impaired. Further explanations on the approaches to staging are included in Note 3 (a). None of NBE’s financial assets have been classified under stage 2 during the three financial years.

Inputs, assumptions and techniques used for estimating impairment
Significant increase in credit risk
When determining whether the risk of default on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Bank considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Bank’s historical experience and expert credit assessment and including forward-looking information. The Bank assesses significant increase in credit risk at portfolio level, of which the definition varies based on the asset type and contractual obligation of the counterparty.
If there is evidence that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk relative to initial recognition, then the loss allowance on an instrument returns to being measured as 12-month ECL.
Some qualitative indicators of an increase in credit risk, such as delinquency or forbearance, may be indicative of an increased risk of default that persists after the indicator itself has ceased to exist. In these cases, the Bank determines a probation period during which the financial asset is required to demonstrate good behavior to provide evidence that its credit risk has declined sufficiently.
When contractual terms of a loan have been modified, evidence that the criteria for recognizing lifetime ECL are no longer met includes a history of up-to-date payment performance against the modified contractual terms.
The Bank monitors the effectiveness of the criteria used to identify significant increases in credit risk by regular reviews to confirm that:
– The criteria are capable of identifying significant increases in credit risk before an exposure is in default;
– The average time between the identification of a significant increase in credit risk and default appears reasonable;
– there is no unwarranted volatility in loss allowance from transfers between 12-month PD (Stage 1) and lifetime PD (Stage 2).
Definition of default
The Bank considers a financial asset to be in default when:– The borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Bank in full, without recourse by
the Bank to actions such as realizing security (if any is held);– A counterparty goes into delinquency, liquidation or forbearance;– For short – term loans, the borrower is in arrears beyond the contractual maturity date; or– it is becoming probable that the borrower will restructure the asset as a result of
bankruptcy due to the borrower’s inability to pay its credit obligations.

Definition of default (continued)
In assessing whether a borrower is in default, the Bank considers indicators that are:– Qualitative: e.g. breaches of covenant and liquidation;– Quantitative: e.g. overdue status and non-payment on another obligation of the same
issuer to the Bank due to credit distress; and– based on data sourced internally and obtained from external sources. Inputs into the assessment of whether a financial instrument is in default and their
significance may vary over time to reflect changes in circumstances.
Incorporation of forward-looking information
The Bank incorporates forward-looking information into both the assessment of whether the credit risk of exposures has increased significantly since its initial recognition and the measurement of ECL.
The Bank uses historical default rates (2012 to 2017) by external rating agencies as well as lagged, Business Monitor International (BMI) Ethiopian historical macroeconomic data (2011 to 2016) to establish linear regression relationships. From an initial data assessment of 541 macroeconomic factors, a combination of correlation, quantitative and qualitative covariance analysis is used to establish significance. A series of regression analysis is then performed. The resultant linear regression equation is used to adjust the rating agencies’ probabilities of default for quantitative expectations on future movements in established macroeconomic factors. The Bank revises this approach at least annually to incorporate changes within reporting periods.
Where statistical methods of forward – looking incorporation are unfeasible, the Bank applies a segment – level management overlay adjustment based on qualitative analysis of current economic conditions, operating environment and future expectations.
Based on the Bank’s statistical analysis, the key drivers for credit risk for local government – affiliated exposures are: private final consumption and total revenue as a percentage of the GDP.
Modified financial assets
The contractual terms of a financial asset may be modified for a number of reasons, including changing market conditions, customer retention and other factors not related to a current or potential credit deterioration of the customer. An existing facility whose terms have been modified may be derecognised and the renegotiated loan recognised as a new facility at fair value in accordance with the accounting policy set out in Note 3 (a (iv)).

When the terms of a financial asset are modified and the modification does not result in derecognition, the determination of whether the asset’s credit risk has increased significantly reflects comparison of:
– The rationale for modification; with– The Bank’s assessment of available and supportable information with regards to the
counterparty’s credit risk profile prior to and after modification.
When modification results in derecognition, a new facility is recognised and allocated to Stage 1 (assuming it is not credit-impaired at that time).The Bank may renegotiate loans to banks in financial difficulties (referred to as ‘forbearance activities’) to maximise collection opportunities and minimise the risk of default. Under the Bank’s forbearance policy, loan forbearance is granted on a selective basis if the debtor is currently in default on its debt or if there is a high risk of default, there is evidence that the debtor made all reasonable efforts to pay under the original contractual terms and the debtor is expected to be able to meet the revised terms.
The revised terms usually include extending the maturity, changing the timing of interest payments and amending the terms of covenants.
For financial assets modified as part of the Bank’s forbearance policy, the estimate of PD reflects whether the modification has improved or restored the Bank’s ability to collect interest and principal and the Bank’s previous experience of similar forbearance action. As part of this process, the Bank evaluates the borrower’s payment performance against the modified contractual terms and considers various behavioural indicators.
Generally, forbearance is a qualitative indicator of a significant increase in credit risk and an expectation of forbearance may constitute evidence that an exposure is credit-impaired (see Note 3 (a (viii)). A counterparty needs to demonstrate consistently good payment behaviour over a period of time before the exposure is no longer considered to be credit-impaired/in default or the PD is considered to have decreased such that the loss allowance reverts to being measured at an amount equal to Stage 1.
Measurement of ECLThe key inputs into the measurement of ECL are the term structure of the following variables:
– Probability of default (PD);– Loss given default (LGD); and– Exposure at default (EAD).
ECL for exposures in Stage 1 is calculated by multiplying the 12-month PD by LGD and EAD. Lifetime ECL is calculated by multiplying the lifetime PD by LGD and EAD.The methodology of estimating PDs is discussed above under the heading ‘Generating the term structure of PD’.

Measurement of ECL )Continued(
LGD is the magnitude of the likely loss if there is a default. The Bank primarily estimates LGD parameters based on the history of recovery rates of claims against defaulted counterparties. The LGD is measured at segment level. For segments with no previous default experience, the Bank applies a minimum LGD approach, benchmarking against the Basel internal ratings – based measurement approach.
EAD represents the expected exposure in the event of a default. The Bank derives the EAD from the current exposure to the counterparty and potential changes to the current amount allowed under the contract and arising from amortization. The EAD of a financial asset is its gross carrying amount at the time of default.
As described above, and subject to using a maximum of a 12-month PD for Stage 1 financial assets, the Bank measures ECL considering the risk of default over the maximum contractual period (including any borrower’s extension options) over which it is exposed to credit risk, even if, for credit risk management purposes, the Bank considers a longer period.
Where modelling of a parameter is carried out on a collective basis, the financial instruments are grouped on the basis of shared risk characteristics that primarily include risk assessment of the Bank’s counterparties.
The groupings are subject to regular review to ensure that exposures within a particular group remain appropriately homogeneous.
For portfolios in respect of which the Bank has limited historical data, external benchmark information is used to supplement the internally available data. The portfolios for which external benchmark information represents a significant input into measurement of ECL are as follows:

ii.) Market risk
‘Market risk’ is the risk that changes in market prices – e.g. interest rates, equity prices, foreign exchange rates and credit spreads – will affect the Bank’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of the Bank’s market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters to ensure the Bank’s solvency while optimizing the return on risk.
Market risks arise from open positions in interest rate, currency and equity prices, all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements and changes in the level of volatility of market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices.
Equity price risk
Equity price risk refers to the potential loss in fair value resulting from adverse changes in the fair value of stocks that the Bank has invested in. Equity price risk is subject to regular monitoring, but is not currently significant in relation to the Bank’s overall results and financial position.
Interest rate riskInterest rate risk is the exposure of the Bank’s financial assets and liabilities to adverse movements in interest rates. If unexpected changes arise in interest rates, there is a possibility of loss due to sensitivity of the Bank’s assets and liabilities to rate variability.
The main source of the Bank’s interest rate risk is re-pricing risk. Bank’s interest bearing assets and liabilities may be re-priced at different times and rates. The Bank’s foreign currency reserve may be exposed to foreign currency interest rate risk when the adjustment of the rates earned and paid on different instruments are re-priced. When interest rates change, these differences can change the cash flows and spread between foreign assets and foreign liabilities of similar maturities or re-pricing frequencies.
The Bank measures its interest rate exposure using a maturity/re-pricing schedule that distributes interest-sensitive assets and liabilities into “time-bands” according to their maturity or time remaining to their next re-pricing. The size of the gap for a given time band (assets less liabilities that re-price or mature within that time band) gives an indication of the Bank’s re-pricing risk exposure.
The Interest rate risk is managed principally through monitoring interest rate gaps and by having pre-approved limits for interest rate fluctuations. The Foreign Exchange Monitoring and Reserve Management (FEMRMD) Directorate is the monitoring body for compliance within these limits. These day-to-day activities include monitoring changes in the Bank’s interest rate exposures, which include the impact of the Bank’s outstanding or forecast debt obligations.

Foreign Exchange rate risk
Foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk is the risk of adverse movements in exchange rates that will result in a decrease in value of foreign exchange assets or an increase in the value of foreign currency liabilities. Foreign exchange fluctuations expose the Bank to changes in the amounts of foreign assets and liabilities held by the Bank. The Bank measures its foreign exchange risk using a single foreign currency open position based on balance sheet amounts in spot markets. It is a risk of volatility due to a mismatch and adverse exchange rate movements during a period in which it has an open balance sheet position in an individual foreign currency.
The mid-exchange rates of major currencies against the Ethiopian Birr at each year end was as follows;

Gold commodity price risk
Gold commodity price risk is the risk that gold commodity prices will change adversely. It refers to uncertainties of future market values and size of the future income, caused by fluctuations in the prices of gold commodities. The Bank as part of its operations, is responsible for purchase and sale of gold commodities. Gold by nature is subject to price fluctuation risk. The average gold per ounce for the last 3 years and the effect of a 10% change in the same on profit/loss and equity are shown below:

27. Financial risk review (continued)
b.) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk of encountering difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset in a timely manner at reasonable prices. Some liabilities in the Bank’s books have no fixed maturity including Currency in circulation and Domestic currency deposits from banks, insurance companies and Government and governmental agencies.
Liquidity risk represents the potential loss to the Bank if it is unable to settle its financial obligations as they fall due and is represented through a maturity mismatch assessment between foreign exchange assets and liabilities.
This risk emanates from the nature of banking business, from the macro factors that are exogenous to the Bank, as well as from financing and operational policies that are internal to the Bank.
In Ethiopian Birr, there is no liquidity risk as the Bank is able to create Birr liquidity through its market operations.
For foreign currency, in addition to holding appropriate cash balances, the Bank manages liquidity through holding a portfolio of liquid foreign exchange reserves.
The Foreign Exchange Monitoring and Reserve Management Directorate (FEMRMD) monitors and reviews information on the Bank’s liquidity developments and reports risk exposures and funding needs to the Executive Management on a regular basis. The FEMRMD mitigates its foreign currency liquidity risk by conducting detailed analysis of the maturities of foreign currency asset-liability gap size. The Bank sets limits, where appropriate, on liquidity metrics and employs monitoring and controlling of liquidity risk exposures for each maturity ladder.
The table below analyses the Bank’s financial liabilities that will be settled on a net basis into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the statement of financial position date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table below are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances, as the impact of discounting is not significant.

(in Ethiopian Birr)27. Financial risk review (continued)
c.) Non-financial risks
i.) Strategic risk
Strategic risk might arise from the deviation of monetary policy target, which may adversely affect the economy and the effectiveness of financial institutions in following set policies and directives, its monetary policy operations and supervisory activities and governance of financial institutions that determine stability of the financial sector.
The Bank manages its strategic risk through undertaking effective monetary policy, the country’s exchange rate policy; and conducting periodic economic studies, together with forecasts of the balance of payments, money supply, prices and other relevant statistical indicators of the Ethiopian economy useful for analysis and for the formulation and determination of its monetary, saving and exchange policies.
Furthermore, the Bank has undertaken prudential onsite and offsite inspection and monitoring of the financial sector on a continuous basis that is aimed at ensuring the soundness of the country’s financial system.
ii.) Operational risk
Operational risk is the financial and non-financial risk to the Bank that could result in financial loss, reputational damage or inability to achieve business objectives. This could arise from human errors, failure of internal processes, people and systems or from external events. Operational risks to the Bank includes: legal, security, business disruption, project management, human resource, IT systems and general business practices and fraud risks.
The Bank has made continuous efforts to minimize losses from operational risks by establishing effective internal control systems which prevent or detect all errors and situations which might cause losses through failure of people or processes. The work units of the Bank perform their activities based on their respective policies and procedures and take their own roles and responsibilities to manage operational risks emanating from their activities on their day to day business operations.
iii.) Cyber security risk
The Bank is exposed to cyber security risk. This is the inherent risk arising from technologies, processes and practices designed to protect the Bank’s information assets, that is, computers, networks, programs and data from unauthorized access.

27. Financial risk review (continued)
c.) Non-financial risks (continued)
iii.) Cyber security risk (continued)
The Bank performs an assessment of this risk at two different levels of management to identify the potential risk and manage proactively to ensure the Bank’s information security is safeguarded. At strategic management level, creating security policies dealing with people issues and evaluating threats and risks. Tactical management level deals with how the security systems are developed and implemented to meet policy requirements.
iv.) Reputational risk
This is the risk associated with the real or perceived loss of credibility and effectiveness as a result of negative publicity arising from a failure to comply with applicable laws or in managing risks, lack of fulfillment of roles and objectives or other external events.
It can be viewed as secondary since the reputational damage is usually caused by a loss or failure in the following areas: strategic; finance or operational risk.
The Bank has the responsibility to stabilize the value of money, the soundness and efficiency of the financial system and the issue of currency (Bank notes and coins). All of these matters have direct impact on all citizens; therefore, how the Bank communicates to the public is of critical importance to maintaining its credibility and in the successful fulfillment of its responsibilities.
In managing reputational risk, the Bank communicates to the public by crafting a consistent message regarding its role and policies, and ensures that this message is effectively communicated to the public.
v.) Custodial risk on statutory deposits
The Bank is a custodian of government bonds and securities that are pledged by insurance companies as statutory deposits pursuant to the provisions of insurance business proclamation No. 746/2012. The Bank has a responsibility to keep the bond certificates safe to avoid any financial losses. To mitigate the risk, the Bank records and keeps all copies of statutory deposits certificates in its custody in secure vaults.

28. Fair value of financial instrument
a. Valuation models
The Bank measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy, which reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.
— Level 1: Inputs that are quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical instruments.
— Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using: quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.
— Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable. This category includes all instruments for which the valuation technique includes inputs that are not observable and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument’s valuation. This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments for which significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.
Valuation techniques include net present value and discounted cash flow models, comparison with similar instruments for which observable market prices exist.
The objective of valuation techniques is to arrive at a fair value measurement that reflects the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of a liability reflects the effect of non-performance risk.
The following sets out the Bank’s basis of establishing fair values of financial instruments:Investment securities with observable market prices including equity securities are fair valued using that information. Investment securities that do not have observable market data are fair valued using discounted cash flow method or quoted market prices for securities with similar yield characteristics.
Loans and advances to government, government institutions and staff are net of allowance for impairment. The estimated fair value of the loans represents the discounted amount of future cash flows expected to be received. Expected cash flows are discounted at current market rates to determine fair value hence their fair values approximates their carrying amounts.
Estimated fair value of fixed interest bearing deposits and bonds without quoted market prices is based on discounting cash flows using the prevailing market rates for debts with similar maturities and interest rates, hence their fair value approximates their carrying amounts.

NATIONAL BANK OF ETHIOPIANOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2018
(in Ethiopian Birr)
29. Commitments
The Bank has entered into certain contracts which are irrevocable in nature. Even though these obligations may not be recognized on the statement of financial position, they have fixed obligation settlement dates. As such, the effect of these commitments will be captured when the obligation to settle the same occurs. Part of the commitments that the Bank entered include some construction work relating to maintenance of ex-CBB building and additional site works project. Work on these projects started during the financial year ended 30 June 2018 with expected completion for the same being 2020. The unpaid portion for this construction in progress is an amount ETB 32,080,878.21.
30. Events after the reporting period
During the beginning of December 2019, there was an outbreak of the COVID-19 virus infection in China. The outbreak quickly escalated to global levels in March 2020 with a pandemic state being confirmed of the outbreak. The outbreak has led to a significant impact on global markets. The impact has also affected the Ethiopian market. We are yet to quantify the exact level of impact that COVID-19 is likely to have on NBE financials. We will however get a clear position on the impact as the situation returns to normal operating conditions.
NBE has successfully redeemed all NBE bills maturing during the period between 1 April 2020 to 30 June 2021 and paid the principal plus interest thereon to the respective banks. The cumulative total of the payments amounts to ETB 15,189,608,907.68.
The IMF also extended two loan facilities to the NBE during the period after the reporting date. The amounts for the two loans borrowed were US dollars 124,280,506.66 on 26 December 2019 and US dollars 184,443,990.53 on January 3, 2020.

(in Ethiopian Birr)
31. Explanation of transition to IFRS
As discussed in note 2, these are the Bank’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
The accounting policies set out in note 3 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2018, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 and in the preparation of an opening separate IFRS statement of financial position as of 1 July 2016 (the Bank´s date of transition).
IFRS 1, First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, currently in force, establishes certain exceptions and exemptions for first-time adopters regarding the general requirement of retrospectively applying IFRS at the date of transition. The Bank applied the mandatory exceptions with respect to the determination of estimates at the date of transition and the prospective application of cancellation of financial assets and liabilities. The following mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions were applied by the Bank:
Mandatory exceptions:
(a) Estimates made under previous GAAP: Estimates in the opening statement of financial positions were consistent with estimates made under previous GAAP; therefore, estimates are not updated for information received at a later date. If changes in estimates are appropriated, then they were accounted for prospectively. In the specific case of impairment losses on financial instruments, the Bank adjusted its General reserves based on the expected credit loss model. The Bank also recognized fair value adjustments arising from fair valuation of its investment securities held at other comprehensive income.
Optional exemptions:
(a) Fair value or revaluation as deemed cost: This exemption permits the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment to be measured at the date of transition based on a deemed cost. This exemption is not limited to a particular asset or liability and establishes a deemed cost at transition to IFRS in accordance with previous GAAP. The Bank elected the fair value optional exemption and revaluation adjustment was done on the following classes of property and equipment: Buildings and Motor vehicles.
(b) Arrangements containing a lease: The Bank has applied the transitional provision in IFRIC 4 determining whether an arrangement contains a lease and has assessed all arrangements based upon the conditions in place as at 1 July, 2016 the date of transition.
(c) Fair value measurement of financial asset and financial liabilities: The Bank has applied the exemption requirements of recognizing a ‘Day 1’ gain or loss provision prospectively. These will be recognised prospectively from date of transition, 1 July 2016.
205

(in Ethiopian Birr)
31. Explanation of transition to IFRS (continued)
(d) Leases: The Bank opted to apply the following exemptions for leases:- Option to use a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics- Option to not apply IFRS 16 recognition requirements on short-term leases – that is, leases for which the lease term as determined under the new standard is 12 months or less.- Option to exclude initial direct costs from the initial measurement of ROU.- Option to measure the lease liability at the present value of the remaining lease payments
discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at transition date.- Option to measure ROU at an amount equal to the lease liability adjusted for prepaid or
accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognized in the statement of financial position immediately before the date of transition.
In preparing its opening IFRS statement of financial position, the Bank has adjusted amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with local GAAP (previous GAAP). For all periods subsequent to 1 July 2016, the Bank has used IFRS guidelines to prepare these financial statements.
An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to IFRSs has affected the Bank’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and the notes that accompany the tables.

(c) Reclassifications on the financial statements
In accordance with IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements an entity should present separately certain items in the statement of financial position. At the date of transition to IFRS, the Bank reclassified the line items following described to present them separately in its statement of financial position:
● Investment securities – The Bank reclassified balances relating to Foreign currency investments and Cash - foreign currencies to this line item. In accordance with IFRS 7 and 9, these items qualify as financial instruments hence the need to cluster them within same reporting category.
● Balances due to/)from( IMF – The Bank created this separate line item in order to reclassify balances specific to IMF and disclose the same independently due to the significance of IMF as a transacting party.
● Balance due from banking institutions – The Bank isolated the balances that arise from banking institutions and disclosed these separately in accordance with IFRS 7 and 9.
(d) Derecognition of financial instruments
At transition date, the Bank assessed the characteristics of the following financial instruments as disclosed under previous GAAP and made a decision to derecognize them. NBE shall not recognize these instruments in accordance with IFRSs unless they qualify for recognition based on the possibility of realizing the same at a later date:

(n) Provisions
Under previous GAAP, the Bank carried out cash accounting for items that may have required a provision. This accounting practice contrasts with the measurement required by IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, which requires an entity to recognize provisions when: (a) an entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event; (b) it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and (c) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If these conditions are not met, no provision shall be recognized.

(o) Property and equipment
At the transition date to IFRS, the Bank chose to apply the option of using the fair value of its buildings and motor vehicles as the deemed cost, through an assessment of such properties, conducted by an independent expert appraiser.
For all the other types of assets, the Bank decided to use the values under previous GAAP as the deemed cost at transition. The Bank also reassessed the useful lives of all its PPE classes and applied salvage values in calculation of depreciation. The Bank recognized a reduction in depreciation expense over the different classes due to calculations involving salvage values that were not taken into account earlier while reporting under local GAAP. This resulted in the value of PPE reported under IFRS going up by ETB 66,946,572 as a result of restating the depreciation by the same amount.
The impact from such change is summarized as follows:

(p) Intangible assets
Under the previous GAAP, the Bank recognized intangible assets as part of fixed assets under property and equipment.
Under IFRS, the intangible assets and their corresponding amortization were reclassified to a separate account – intangible assets as per provisions of IAS 38.
The impact of this change is as summarized below:

(q) Impairment losses on financial instruments
Under the previous GAAP, the Bank did not recognize impairment losses on its financial assets.
Under IFRS, the Bank has adopted an expected credit loss model in line with IFRS 9 requirements. Under this approach, the Bank is required to recognize an impairment loss before a loss occurs

(r) Leases
Under the previous GAAP, the rent agreements on buildings were classified as operating leases and any rent payments were recognized in the income statement on a straight-line basis.
At the transition date to IFRS, the Bank early adopted IFRS 16. The Bank elected to define low value lease items as well as leases with a lease term of less than 12 months. As a result, the Bank elects to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability for a lease with a lease period of more than one year and of a value higher than ETB 135,000.
The effect was to introduce a right of use asset and lease liability in the statement of financial position, recognize depreciation on the right of use asset and interest on the lease liability in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and reverse rent payments previously recognised in the income statements.
The impact from this change is as follows:

(t) Loans to employees
Under the previous GAAP, the Bank did not recognize Loans to employees at below market rates at their fair values based on the prevailing market rates.
IFRS 9 requires the Bank to recognize these below market rate Loans to employees at fair value based on the prevailing market rates.

(u) Employee benefits
Under local GAAP, all long-term service and post-employment benefits such as severance payment, post-employment medical pay, prize pay and funeral expenses were recognized on a cash basis.

The effect of this was to recognize a defined liability in the statement of financial position and also the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
The impact from such change is summarized as follows:

On IFRS transition, IFRS 1 provides that all adjustments required to align the financial statements for IFRS compliance should be passed through retained earnings or other appropriate reserve. Since retained earnings is usually nil due to a need to appropriate all surplus for the year to Ministry of Finance as dividends, the Other reserve account was created to accommodate the IFRS transition adjustments. This reserve is however not available for distribution as dividends.
