4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the approved accounting standards requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. It also requires the management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Bank's accounting policies. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The areas where various assumptions and estimates are significant to the Bank's financial statements or where judgment was exercised in application of accounting policies are as follows:
i).Classification of investments

-.In classifying investments as "held-for-trading" the Bank has determined securities which are acquired with the intention to trade by taking advantage of short term market / interest rate movements and are to be sold within 90 days.

-.In classifying investments as "held-to-maturity" the Bank follows the guidance provided in SBP circulars on classifying non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity. In making this judgment, the Bank evaluates its intention and ability to hold such investments to maturity.

-.The investments which are not classified as held for trading or held to maturity are classified as available for sale.
ii).Provision against non-performing loans and advances and debt securities classified as investments

The Bank reviews its loan portfolio and debt securities classified as investments to assess amount of non-performing loans and advances and debt securities and provision required there-against. While assessing this requirement various factors including the delinquency in the account, financial position of the borrower, the forced sale value of the securities and the requirements of the Prudential Regulations are considered. For portfolio impairment provision on consumer advances, the Bank follows, the general provision requirement set out in Prudential Regulations. These provisions change due to changes in requirements.
iii).Valuation and impairment of available for sale equity investments

The Bank determines that available-for-sale equity investments are impaired when there has been a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost. This determination of what is significant or prolonged requires judgment. In making this judgment, the Bank evaluates among other factors, the normal volatility in share price. In addition, impairment may be appropriate when there is evidence of deterioration in the financial health of the investee, industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flows.
iv).Income taxes

In making the estimates for income taxes currently payable by the Bank, the management leaks at the current income tax laws and the decisions of appellate authorities on certain issues in the past. In making the provision for deferred taxes, estimates of the Bank's future taxable profits are taken into account.
v).Fair value of derivatives

The far values of derivatives which are not quoted in active markets are determined by using valuation technique. The valuation techniques take into account the relevant interest rates in affect at the balance sheet date and the rates contracted.
vi).Fixed assets, depreciation and amortization

In making estimates of the depreciation / amortisation, the management uses method which reflects the pattern in which economic benefits are expected to be consumed by the Bank and estimates the useful life. The method applied and useful lives estimated are reviewed at each financial year and if there is a change in the expected pattern or timing of consumption at the future economic benefits embodied in the assets, the estimate would lee changed to reflect the change pattern. Such a change is accounted for as change in accounting estimates in accordance with International Accounting Standard - 8, Accounting Policies, 'Changes Accounting Estimates and Errors'.
vii).Defined benefits plan

Liability is determined on the basis of actuarial advice using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

The actuarial assumptions used to determine the liability and related expense are disclosed in note 36.
5. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these unconsolidated financial statement are the same as those applied in the preparation of the unconsolidated financial statements of the Bank for the year ended December 31, 2009 and are enumerated as follows:
5.1. Change in accounting policies

Pursuant to the adoption of revised IAS -1 through SBP BSD Circular Letter on. 7 dated 20 April, 2010. Balance Sheet has been renamed to Statement of Financial Position.
5.2. Cash and cash equivalents:

For the purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances with treasury banks and balance with other banks (net of overdrawn nostro balance) in current and deposit accounts.
5.3. Lendings to / borrowing from financial instructions

The Bank enters into transactions of borrowing (re-purchase) from and lending (reverse re-purchase) to financial instructions, at contracted rates for a specified period of time. These are recorded as under:
(a).Sale under re-purchase agreements

Securities sold subject to re-purchase agreement are retained in the financial statements as investments and the counter party liability is included in borrowing from financial institutions. The differential in sale and re-purchase value is accrued on a prorata basis and recorded as interest expense.
(b).Purchase under resale agreement

Securities purchased under agreement to resale (reverse re-purchase) are included in lendings to financial, institution. The differential between the contracted price and re-sale price is amortised over the period at the contract and recorded as interest income.

Securities held as collateral are not recognised in the financial statements, unless these are sold to third parties, in which case the obligation to return them is recorded at fair value as a trading liability under borrowings from financial institutions

Other borrowings including borrowings from SBP are recorded at the proceeds received. Mark-up on such borrowing is charged to the profit and loss account on a time proportion basis.

Lendings are stated net of provision. Mark-up on such lending is charged to the profit and loss account on a time proportion basis except mark-up on impaired/ delinquent lendings, which is recognized on receipt basis.
5.4. Investments

5.4.1. The Bank at the time of purchase classifies its investment portfolio into the following categories, which are initially recognized at fair value plus the acquisition cost, except in case of held for trading investments, in which cases, these are charged off to the profit and loss account.
5.4.1.1. Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less impairment, if any.
5.4.1.2. Other investments are classified as follows:

(a).Held for trading

These are securities which are either acquired for generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in market prices, interest rate movements, dealer's margin or are securities included in a portfolio in which a pattern of short-term profit taking exists.
(b).Held to maturity

These are securities with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity.
(c).Available for sale

These are investments, other than those in subsidiary, that do not fall under the held for trading or held to maturity categories.
5.4.2. In accordance with the requirements of the SBP, quoted securities, other than those classified as held to maturity and investments in subsidiaries, are carried at market value. Investments classified as held to maturity are carried at amortized cost whereas investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less impairment losses, if any.

Unrealized surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation of the Bank's held for trading investment portfolio is taken to the profit and loss account. Surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation of quoted securities classified as available for sale is kept in a separate account shown in the balance sheet below equity. The surplus/(deficit) arising on these securities is taken to the profit and loss account when actually realised upon disposal or when the investment is considered to be impaired.

Unquoted equity securities are valued at the lower of cost and book break-up value. Subsequent increases or decreases in the carrying value are credited/charged to profit and loss account. Break-up value of equity securities is calculated with reference to the net assets of the investee company as per the latest available audited financial statements. Investments in other unquoted securities are valued at cost less impairment losses, if any.

Provision for diminution in the value of securities (except for debentures, participation term certificates and term finance certificates) is made after considering impairment, if any, in their value. Provision for diminution in value of debentures, participation term certificates and term finance certificates are made in accordance with the requirements of Prudential Regulations issued by SBP.

Associates as defined under local statutes but not under IAS are accounted for as ordinary investments.

All "regular way" purchases and sales of investments are recognized on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Bank commits to purchase or sell the asset. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of investments that require delivery of assets within the time frame generally established by regulation or convention in the market place.
5.5. Advances (including net investment in finance lease)

Advances are stated net of general and specific provisions. Specific provision against funded loans is determined in accordance with the requirements of the Prudential Regulations issued by the SBP and charged to the profit and loss account. General provision is maintained on consumer portfolio in accordance with the requirements of Prudential Regulations issued by SBP and charged to the profit and loss account.

Leases, where the Bank transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of an asset to the lessee are classified as finance leases. A receivable is recognized at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including un-guaranteed residual value, if any. Finance lease receivables are included in advances to the customers.

Advances are written off when there are no realistic prospects of recovery.
5.6. Operating fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible assets

Property and equipment owned by the Bank, other than land which is not depreciated, are stated at cost or revalued amount less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Land is carried at revalued amount.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method, except buildings which are depreciated using the reducing balance method, to write down the cost of property and equipment to their residual values over their estimated useful lives. The rates at which the fixed assets are depreciated are disclosed in note 11.2.

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed and changes, if any, are treated as change in accounting estimates, at each balance sheet date.

Depreciation on additions is charged from the month the assets are available for use, while no depreciation is charged in the month in which the assets are disposed off.

Surplus arising on revaluation of fixed assets is credited to surplus on revaluation of fixed assets account. Deficit arising on subsequent revaluation of fixed assets is adjusted against the balance in the above mentioned surplus account as allowed under the provisions of the Companies Ordinance, 1984. The surplus on revaluation of fixed assets to the extent of incremental depreciation charged on the related assets, is transferred directly to unappropriated profit (net of deferred tax).

Revaluation is carried out with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of assets does not differ materially from their fair value.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is recognized in the profit and loss account in the year the asset is derecognized, except that the related surplus on revaluation of fixed assets (net of deferred tax) is transferred directly to unappropriated profit.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit and loss account.
Intangible assets

Intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. The cost of intangible assets is amortized over their estimated useful lives, using the straight line method. Amortization is charged from the month the assets are available for use at the rate stated in note 11.3. The useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
Capital work-in-progress

Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less impairment losses, if any.
5.7. Taxation

Current

Provision for current taxation is based on taxable income for the year determined in accordance with the prevailing laws for taxation on income earned. The charge for current tax is calculated using the prevailing tax rates or tax rates expected to apply to the profits for the year. The charge for current tax also includes adjustments, where considered necessary relating to prior years, arising from assessments finalised during the year for such years.
Deferred

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences, at the balance sheet date between the amounts attributed to assets and liabilities for financial reporting purpose and amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the periods when the difference will reverse, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

"The Bank also recognizes a deferred tax asset/liability on deficit/surplus on revaluation of fixed assets and securities which is adjusted against the related deficit/surplus in accordance with the requirements of IAS-12 "Income Taxes".
5.8. Staff retirement and other benefits

5.8.1. Staff retirement schemes

a).For employees who opted for the new scheme introduced by the management:

"An approved pension scheme (defined benefit scheme) under which the benefits on the basis of frozen basic salary service and age as on June 30, 2002 are payable to all employees whose date of joining the Bank is on or before July 01, 1992, i.e., who have completed 10 years of service as on June 30, 2002; and

An approved gratuity scheme (defined benefit scheme) under which the benefits are payable as under:

i).For members whose date of joining the Bank is on or before July 01, 1992, their services would be calculated starting from July 01, 2002 for gratuity benefit purposes.

ii).For members whose date of joining the Bank is after July 01, 1992 their services would be taken at actual for the purpose of calculating the gratuity benefit.

A Contributory Provident Fund scheme to which equal contribution are made by the Bank and the employees (defined contribution scheme).
b).For employees who did not opt for the new scheme:

An approved pension scheme (defined benefit scheme) under which the benefits on the basis of frozen basic salary as on June 30, 2002 are payable to all employees opting continuation of the previous scheme and whose date of joining the Bank is on or before July 01, 1992, i.e., who had completed ten years of service as on June 30, 2002.

Until December 31, 2008, the bank operated a contributory benevolent fund, which was discontinued during the year for active employees. Existing employees were also given an option to settle their monthly grant with a lump sum payment. Those who have not opted for the lump sum option will continue to receive benevolent grant (defined benefit scheme).
c).Post retirement medical benefits

The Bank provides post retirement medical benefits to eligible retired employees. Provision is made annually to meet the cost of such medical benefits on the basis of actuarial valuation carried out using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

Annual contributions towards the defined benefit schemes are made on the basis of actuarial valuation carried out using the Projected Unit Credit Method. Actuarial gains/losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are amortized over the future expected remaining working lives of the employees, to the extent of the greater of ten percent of the present value of the defined benefit obligations at that date (before deducting plan assets) and ten percent of the fair value of any plan assets at that date.
5.8.2. Other benefits

Employees' compensated absences

Employees' entitlement to annual leave is recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for estimated liability for annual leaves as a result of services rendered by the employee against unavailed leaves, as per terms of service contract, up to balance sheet date, based on actuarial valuation using Projected Unit Credit Method.
5.9. Assets acquired in satisfaction of claims

The Bank occasionally acquires assets in settlement of certain advances. These are stated at lower of the carrying value of the related advances and the current fair value of such assets.
5.10. Deposits

Deposits are initially recorded at the amount of proceeds received. Mark-up accrued on deposits is recognized separately as part of other liabilities and is charged to the profit and loss account on a time proportion basis.
5.11. Subordinated loans

Subordinated loans are initially recorded at the amount of proceeds received. Mark-up accrued on these loans is recognized separately as part of other liabilities and is charged to the profit and loss account on a time proportion basis.
5.12. Impairment

At each balance sheet date, the Bank reviews the carrying amount of its assets (other then deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is an indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of assets is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Recoverable amount is the greater of net selling price and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the assets is reduced to its recoverable amount. The resulting impairment loss is recognized as an expense immediately, except for the impairment loss on revalued fixed assets which is adjusted against the related revaluation surplus to the extent that the impairment loss does not exceed the surplus on revaluation of those assets.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Bank estimates the asset's or cash-generating unit's recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the profit and loss account unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.
5.13. Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Bank has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.

Provision against identified non-funded losses is recognized when intimated and reasonable certainty exists for the Bank to settle the obligation. The loss is charged to the profit and loss account net of expected recovery and is classified under other liabilities.

Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
5.14. Dividend distribution and appropriations

Bonus and cash dividend and other appropriations (except for the appropriations required by law), declared / approved subsequent to balance sheet date are considered as non-adjusting event and are not recorded in unconsolidated financial statements of the current year. These are recognized in the period in which these are declared / approved.
5.15. Foreign currencies

a).Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into rupees at the foreign exchange rates ruling on the transaction date.

Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are expressed in rupee terms at the rates of exchange ruling on the balance sheet date. Foreign bills purchased are valued at spot rate and forward foreign exchange contracts are valued at forward rates applicable to their respective maturities.
b).Translation gains and losses

Translation gains and losses are included in the profit and loss account.
c).Commitments

Commitments for outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts disclosed in these financial statements are translated at forward rates applicable to their respective maturities.

Any gain or loss on de-recognition of the financial asset and liability is recognised in the profit and loss account of the current period. The particular recognition and subsequent measurement methods adopted for significant financial assets and financial liabilities are disclosed in the individual policy statements associated with them.
5.16.2. Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value using appropriate valuation techniques. All derivative financial instruments are carried as assets when fair value is positive and liabilities when fair value is negative. Any change in the fair value of derivative financial instruments is taken to the profit and loss account.
5.17. Off setting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are set off and the net amount is reported in the financial statements when there is a legally enforceable right to set off and the Bank intends to either settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and to settle the liabilities simultaneously.
5.18. Revenue recognition

12.2. Through Finance Act 2007, a new section 100A read with the 7th Schedule (the Schedule) was inserted in the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 for the taxation of banking companies. The Schedule seeks to simplify the taxation of banking companies and is applicable from the tax year 2009 (financial year ending on December 31, 2008).

The deferred tax asset on the deductible temporary differences disallowed as a deduction in the past up to December 31, 2007, for which transitory provisions are not available, is being kept as an asset as the Bank is confident that transitory provisions would be introduced to set out the mechanism of claiming where benefit of these allowances can be claimed.

22.10. Other Contingencies

22.10.1. The income tax assessments of the Bank have been finalized upto and including tax year 2010 for local and Azad Kashmir operations. While finalizing income tax assessments upto tax year 2009, income tax authorities made certain add backs with aggregate tax impact of Rs. 9,631 million. As a result of appeals filed by the Bank before appellate authorities, the add backs amounting to Rs. 2,524 million and Rs. 6,987 million were set-aside and deleted respectively. While giving appeal effects on most of the deleted issues, a refund of Rs. 5,794 million has been determined. Against most of the deleted and set-aside issues, Department is in appeal before higher appellate authorities. Pending finalization of appeals, no provision has been made by the Bank on aggregate sum of Rs. 9,631 million. The management is hopeful that the outcome of these appeals will be in favour of the Bank.
22.10.2. As a result of a compromise decree granted by the Honourable High Court of Sindh in August 2002, Fateh Textile Mills Limited pledged 16,376,106 shares of ABL with the Bank as security consequent to the default by Fateh Textile Mills Limited on the terms of the decree. The Bank published a notice on June 23, 2004 in accordance with the requirements of section 19(3) of the Financial Institutions (Recovery of Finances) Ordinance, 2001 and invited sealed bids from interested parties to purchase the pledged shares. The bidding process was scheduled for July 23, 2004 and the Bank had fixed a reserve price of Rs. 25 per share. On the bid date, the highest offer for these shares was received at a rate of Rs. 25.51 per share. The bid was approved and the successful bidder had deposited an amount of Rs. 417.75 million with the Bank.

Fateh Textile Mills Limited had filed a suit against the Bank in the High Court of Sindh challenging the sale of the above shares. The High Court had not granted a stay order on the process of sale of shares. However, the matter is still pending in the Court.
23. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Bank at present does not offer structured derivative products such as Interest Rate Swaps, Forward Rate Agreements or FX Options. However, the Bank's Treasury buys and sells derivative instruments such as:

� Forward Exchange Contracts

� Foreign Exchange Swaps

� Equity Futures
Forward Exchange Contracts

Forward Exchange Contract (FEC) is a product which is offered to the obligor who transact internationally. These traders use this product to hedge themselves from unfavorable movements in a foreign currency, however, by agreeing to fix the exchange rate, they do not benefit from favorable movements in that currency.

An FEC is a contract between the Obligor and the Bank in which both agree to exchange an amount of one currency for another currency at an agreed forward exchange rate for settlement more than two business days after the FEC is entered into (the day on which settlement occurs is called the value date). FEC is entered with those Obligors whose credit worthiness has already been assessed.

If the relevant exchange rate moves un-favourably, the Bank will lose money, and Obligor will benefit from that movement because the Bank must exchange currencies at the FEC rate. In order to mitigate this risk of adverse exchange rate movement, the Bank hedges its exposure by taking forward position in inter-bank FX.
Foreign Exchange Swaps

A Foreign Exchange Swap (FX Swap) is used by the Bank if it has a need to exchange one currency for another currency on one day and then re-exchange those currencies at a later date. Exchange rates and forward margins are determined in the "interbank" market and fluctuate according to supply and demand.

An FX Swap prevents the Bank from gaining any benefit resulting from a favourable exchange rate movement in the relevant currency pair between the time Bank enters into the transaction deal and when settlement occurs. Cancellation of the swap may also result in exposure to market movements. The key advantage of an FX swap is that it provides the Bank with protection against unfavourable currency movements between the time it enters into the transaction and settlement. The term and amounts for FX Swap can also be tailored to suit the Bank's particular needs.
Equity Futures

An equity futures contract is a standardized contract, traded on a futures counter of the stock exchange, to buy or sell a certain underlying scrip at a certain date in the future, at a specified price.

The Bank uses equity futures as a hedging instrument to hedge its equity portfolio, in both held for trading and available for sale, against equity price risk. Only selected shares are allowed to be traded on futures exchange. Equity futures give flexibility to the Bank either to take delivery on the future settlement date or to settle it by adjusting the notional value of the contract based on the current market rates. Maximum exposure limit to the equity futures is 10% of Tier I Capital of the Bank.

The accounting policies used to recognize and disclose derivatives are given in note 5.15.2. The risk management framework of derivative instruments is given in note 43.

* During the year SBP approved the appointment of an Executive Director as a full time employee of the Bank effective from July 01, 2010, however his role on the Board of Directors shall remain as an Executive Director.
39. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of traded investments is based on quoted market prices, and have been disclosed in note 9.

Fair value of fixed term loans, other assets, other liabilities and fixed term deposits cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability due to the absence of current and active market for such assets and liabilities and reliable data regarding market rates for similar instruments. The provision for impairment of loans and advances has been calculated in accordance with the Bank's accounting policy as stated in note 5.5.

The maturity and repricing profile and effective rates are stated in notes 43.3.1 and 43.2.4 respectively.

In the opinion of the management, the fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities are not significantly different from their carrying values since assets and liabilities are either short-term in nature or in the case of customer loans and deposits are frequently repriced.

42. CAPITAL ASSESSMENT AND ADEQUACY

42.1. Scope of Applications

The Basel II Framework is applicable to the Bank both at the consolidated level (comprising of wholly owned subsidiary - ABL Asset Management Company Limited) and also on a stand alone basis.
42.2. Capital Structures

Banks regulatory capital is analyzed into two tiers:

Tier 1 capital, which includes fully issued, subscribed and paid up capital, balance in share premium account, reserve for bonus issue, general reserves as per the financial statements and net un-appropriated profits, etc after deductions for investments in the equity of subsidiary companies engaged in banking and financial activities and deficit on revaluation of available for sale investments.

Tier 2 capital, which includes general provisions for loan losses (up to a maximum of 1.25 % of risk weighted assets), reserves on the revaluation of fixed assets and equity investments (up to a maximum of 45% of the balance in the related revaluation reserves) and subordinated debt (up to a maximum of 50%).

The Bank has issued unsecured subordinated Term Finance Certificates, which contributes towards Tier II capital for minimum capital requirements (MCR) to support the Bank's growth. The regulatory approvals for TFC I and TFC II work obtained in December 2006 and August 2009 respectively.

Liability to the TFC holders is subordinated to and ranked inferior to all other debts of the bank including deposits and is not redeemable before maturity without prior approval of the SBP.
The salient features of the issue are as follows:

42.3. Capital Adequacy

Objectives of Managing Capital

Capital Management aims to ensure that there is sufficient capital to meet the capital requirements of the Bank as determined by the underlying business strategy and the minimum requirements of the SBP. The Capital Management process is governed by the Bank's Asset & Liability Committee (ALCO) and Management Committee (MANCO). Further, capital adequacy and management is overseen by the Board's Risk Management Committee (BRMC) and Strategic Planning and Monitoring Committee (SPMC).
Bank's capital management seeks:

- to comply with the capital requirements set by the regulators and comparable to the peers;

- to actively manage the supply of capital costs and increase capital velocity;

- to increase strategic and tactical flexibility in the deployment of capital to allow for the timely reallocation of capital;

- to improve the liquidity of the Bank's assets to allow for an optimal deployment of the Bank's resources;

- to protect the Bank against unexpected events and maintain strong ratings;

- to safeguard the Bank's ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide adequate return to shareholders;

- availability of adequate capital (including the quantum) at a reasonable cost so as to enable the Bank to expand; and

- to achieve low overall cost of capital with appropriate mix of capital elements.
Externally Imposed Capital Requirements

In order to strengthen the solvency of Banks / Development Financial Institutions (DFI), SBP through its BSD Circular No. 07 of 2009 dated April 15, 2009 has asked the Banks to raise their minimum paid up capital to Rs. 7 billion (free of losses) by the end of financial year 2010. Furthermore the Banks are required to increase their minimum paid up capital to Rs 10 billion in a phased manner by the end of financial year 2013.

SBP through its BSD Circular No. 09 dated April 15, 2009 has asked Banks to achieve the minimum Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) of 10% on standalone as well as on consolidated basis latest by December 31, 2010.

The paid up capital and CAR of the Bank stands at Rs. 7.821 billion and 13.84% of its risk weighted exposure as at December 31, 2010.

The Bank has complied with all externally imposed capital requirements as at year end.

43. RISK MANAGEMENT

The Risk Management Framework (the Framework) provides principles for identifying, assessing, and monitoring risk within the Bank. The Framework specifies the key elements of the risk management process in order to maximise opportunities, to minimise adversity and to achieve improved outcomes and outputs based on informed decision making.
Categories of Risk

The Bank generates most of its revenues by accepting Credit, Country, Liquidity and Market Risk. Effective management of these four risks is the decisive factor in our profitability. In addition, the Bank is subject to certain consequential risks that are common to all business undertakings. These risks are grouped under two headings: Operational and Reputation Risk. The Framework is organized with reference to these five risk categories, as detailed below:
Credit Risk

This risk is defined as the possibility of loss due to unexpected default or a deterioration of credit worthiness of a business partner.

Credit Risk includes Country Risk i.e., the risks that counterparty is unable to meet its foreign currency obligations as a result of adverse economic conditions or actions taken by governments in the relevant country.
Market Risk

The risk of loss generated by adverse changes in the price of financial assets or contracts currently held by the Bank (this risk is also known as price risk).
Liquidity Risk

The risk that the Bank is unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn; the consequences of which may be the failure to meet obligations to repay depositors and fulfill commitments to lend.
Operational Risk

Operational Risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, and systems or from external events. The definition excludes reputational risk.
Reputational Risk

The risk of failing to meet the standards of performance or behaviour required or expected by stakeholders in commercial activities or the way in which business is conducted.
Risk Responsibilities

- The Board of Directors is accountable for overall supervision of the risk management process. This is discharged by distributing responsibilities at Board level for their management and determining the manner in which risk authorities are set. The Board is also responsible for approval of all risk policies and ensuring that these are properly implemented. Further, the Board shall also seek appointment of senior management personnel capable of managing the risk activities conducted by the Bank.

- The Board Risk Management Committee (BRMC) is responsible for ensuring that the overall risk strategy and appetite of the Bank is appropriately defined in the Strategic Plan and recommend the same to the Board of Directors.

- The BRMC recommends for approval to the Board of Directors the policies proposed by MANCO (Management Committee of the Bank) or ALCO (Assets and liability committee) which discharges various responsibilities assigned to it by the BRMC.

- The CEO and Group Chiefs are accountable for the management of risk collectively through their membership of risk committees, i.e., Management Committee and the Asset & Liability Committee. Independent supervision of risk management activities is provided by the Audit Committee.

- The Risk Management Group is headed by a Group Chief responsible to set-up and implement the Framework of the Bank.
Risk Management Group Organization

Risk management functions have been segregated by business specialization, i.e., Credit Risk, Credit Administration, Risk Architecture, Risk Analytics, Operational Risk and Market Risk. All these functions are operating in tandem to improve and maintain the health of assets and liabilities.
43.1. Credit Risk

Credit risk, the potential default of one or more debtors, is the largest source of risk for the Bank. The Bank is exposed to credit risk through its lending and investment activities. The Bank's credit risk function is divided into Corporate and Financial Institutions Risk, Commercial and Retail Risk, and Consumer Risk. The functions operate within an integrated framework of credit policies, guidelines and processes. The credit risk management activities are governed by the Credit Risk Framework of the Bank that defines the respective roles and responsibilities, the credit risk management principles and the Bank's credit risk strategy. Further Credit Risk Management is supported by a detailed Credit Policy and Procedural Manual.
The Bank manages 3 principal sources of credit risk:

i).Sovereign credit risk on its public sector advances

ii).Non-sovereign credit risk on its private sector advances

iii).Counterparty credit risk on interbank limits
Sovereign Credit Risk

When the Bank lends to public sector borrowers, it prefers obtaining a full sovereign guarantee or the equivalent from the Government of Pakistan (GOP). However, certain public sector enterprises have a well defined cash flow stream and appropriate business model, based on which the lending is secured through collaterals other than GOP guarantee.
Non-Sovereign Credit Risk

When the Bank lends to private sector borrowers it does not benefit from sovereign guarantees or the equivalent. Consequently, each borrower's credit worthiness is analyzed on the Credit Application Package that incorporates a formalized and structured approach for credit analysis and directs the focus of evaluation towards a balanced assessment of credit risk with identification of proper mitigates. These risks include Industry Risk, Business Risk, Financial Risk, Security Risk and Account Performance Risk. Financial analysis is further strengthened through use of separate financial spreadsheet templates that have been designed for manufacturing/trading concerns, financial institutions and insurance companies.
Counter Party Credit Risk on Interbank Limits

In the normal course of its business, the Bank's Treasury utilizes products such as Reverse REPO and call lending to meet the needs of the borrowers and manage its exposure to fluctuations in market, interest and currency rates and to temporarily invest its liquidity prior to disbursement. All of these financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, the risk that the counterparty in the transaction may be unable to meet its obligation to the Bank.

Reflecting a preference for minimizing exposure to counterparty credit risk, the Bank maintains eligibility criteria that link the exposure limits to counterparty credit ratings by external rating agencies. For example, the minimum rating for counterparties to be eligible for a banking relationship with the Bank is BBB.
Country Risk

The Bank has in place a Country Risk Management Policy which has been approved by the Board. This policy focuses on international exposure undertaken by the Bank. The Bank utilizes country risk rating assessment reports published by Dun & Bradstreet Limited (an international credit rating agency) which use political, commercial, macroeconomic and external risk factors in assigning a country risk rating. The country risk limits used by the Bank are linked to the Dun & Bradstreet ratings and FID is responsible for monitoring of country exposure limits.
Credit Administration

Credit Administration is involved in minimizing losses that could arise due to security and documentation deficiencies. The Credit Administration Division constantly monitors the security and documentation risks inherent in the existing credit portfolio through six regional credit administration departments located all over the country.
Risk Analytics

To ensure a prudent distribution of asset portfolio, the Bank manages its lending and investment activities within a framework of Borrower, Group and Sector exposure limits and risk profile benchmarks.
Internal Risk Rating Models

The Bank has developed internal risk rating models to assign credit risk ratings to its Corporate and Institutional borrowers. These models are based on expert judgment, comprising of both quantitative and qualitative factors. The ratings are assigned at Risk Analytic's Level and are given due weightage while extending credit to these asset classes. The Bank intends to comply with the requirements of Foundation Internal Ratings Based approach for credit risk measurement under Basel II, for which services of a consultant have been solicited to assist the Bank in carrying out statistical testing and validation of the rating models.
Stress Testing

The Bank is also conducting stress testing of its existing portfolio, which includes all assets, i.e., advances as well as investments. This exercise is conducted on a semi-annual basis through assigning shocks to all assets of the Bank and assessing its resulting affect on capital adequacy.
Early Warning System

In order to ensure that monitoring of the regular lending portfolio focuses on problem recognition, an early warning system in the form of a 'Watch-List' category has been instituted to cover the gap between Regular and Substandard categories. Identification of an account on the said 'Watch-List' influences the lending branch to carry out an assessment of the borrower's ability to rectify the identified problem / weakness within a reasonable time-frame, consider tighter structuring of facilities, confirm that there are no critical deficiencies in the existing security position and, if possible, arrange for strengthening of the same through obtaining additional collateral. It should however, be noted that the Watch-List category of accounts is part of the Bank's Regular portfolio and does not require any provisioning.

In some cases, an account may even be downgraded directly from a Regular to Sub-Standard or worse on subjective basis based on the severity of the trigger involved.
Management of Non-Performing Loans

The Bank has a Special Asset Management Group (SAM), which is responsible for management of non-performing loans. SAM under-takes restructuring / rescheduling of problem loans, as well as litigation both civil and criminal for collection of debt.

For the non-performing loan portfolio, the Bank makes a specific provision based on an assessment of the credit impairment of each loan. At the end of 2010, the average specific provisioning rate was 81.86% of the non-performing loan portfolio.

The accounting policies and methods used to determine specific and general provision are given in the note numbers 5 and 10 to these unconsolidated financial statements. The movement in specific and general provision held is given in note 10.4 to these financial statements.
Portfolio Diversification

During the year 2010, the advances grew by 7.46%, while concomitantly maintaining healthy Advances to Deposit Ratio and Capital Adequacy Ratio.

While expanding the advances portfolio, efficient portfolio diversification has been a key consideration. The diversification takes into account the volatility of various sectors by placing concentration limits on lending to these sectors thereby ensuring a diversified advances portfolio. Composition of the Bank's advance's portfolio is significantly diversified. Textile, Cement, Agriculture and Electric Generation are major contributors to the advances portfolio. These sectors are considered to be the biggest contributors towards country's GDP as well.

43.1.2. Credit Risk - General Disclosures

The Bank is following standardized approach for all its Credit Risk Exposures.
43.1.2.1. Credit Risk: Disclosures for portfolio subject to Standardized Approach and supervisory risk weights in IRB approach Basel II specific

Under standardized approach, the capital requirement is based on the credit rating assigned to the counterparties by the External Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAIs) duly recognized by SBP for capital adequacy purposes. In this connection, the Bank utilizes the credit ratings assigned by ECAIs and has recognized agencies such as PACRA (Pakistan Credit Rating Agency), JCR-VIS (Japan Credit Rating Company - Vital Information Systems), Fitch, Moody's and Standard & Poors which are also recognized by the SBP. The Bank also utilizes rating scores of Export Credit Agencies (ECA) participating in the "Arrangement on Officially Supported Export Credits"

The Standardised Approach to credit risk sets out fixed risk weights corresponding, where appropriate, to external credit assessment levels or for unrated claims.
Selection of ECAIs

The Bank selects particular ECAI(s) for each type of claim. Amongst the ECAIs that have been recognised as eligible by SBP, the following are being used against each respective claim type.

Sovereigns Exposures: For foreign currency claims on sovereigns, the Bank uses country risk scores of Export Credit Agencies (ECA) participating in the "Arrangement on Officially Supported Export Credits" available on OECD's website.

Exposures to Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs): For exposures on MDBs not eligible for a 0% risk weight, ratings of Moody's S&P and Fitch are being used to calculate risk-weighted assets.

Exposures to Public Sector Entities (PSEs): For PSE exposures, rating of PACRA and JCR-VIS are used to arrive at risk weights.

Bank Exposures: For foreign banks (i.e., incorporated outside Pakistan), ratings of Moody's, S&P and Fitch is being used to arrive at risk weights. However, for local bank (i.e., incorporated in Pakistan) ratings of PACRA and JCR-VIS are used.

Corporate Exposures: Ratings assigned by PACRA and JCR-VIS are used for claims on Corporates (excluding equity exposures). Use of ECAI Ratings

The Bank prefers solicited ratings over unsolicited ratings at all times, owing to the greater degree of accuracy (in general) associated with solicited ratings as compared to unsolicited to unsolicited ratings. Unsolicited ratings may only be used in cases where a solicited ratings is not available.
Mapping to SBP Rating Grades

The selected final ratings (after application of the principles stated above) for all exposures need to be translated to the standard rating grades given by the SBP. In this regard, the mapping tables to be used for converting ECAI ratings to SBP rating grades are given below:

43.1.2.2. Credit Risk: Disclosures with respect to Credit Risk Mitigation for Standardized Approach

The Bank has adopted the Simple Approach of Credit Risk Mitigation for the Banking Book. Since, the trading book of the Bank only comprises equity investments, and units in open ended mutual funds, therefore no Credit Risk Mitigation benefit is taken in the trading book. In instances where the Bank's exposure on an obligor is secured by collateral that conforms with the eligibility criteria under the Simple Approach of CRM, then the Bank reduces its exposure under that particular transaction by taking into account the risk mitigating effect of the collateral for the calculation of capital requirement i.e. risk weight of the collateral instrument securing the exposure is substituted for the risk weight of the counter party.

The Bank accepts cash, lien on deposits, government securities and eligible guarantees etc. under the simple approach of Credit Risk Mitigation. The Bank has in place detailed guidelines with respect to valuation and management of various collateral types. In order to obtain the credit risk mitigation benefit, the Bank uses realizable value of eligible collaterals to the extent of outstanding exposure.

Since no specific asset is available by way of security in the context of unfunded credit protection, the creditworthiness and reliability of the provider and the validity and enforceability of that party's obligations is of paramount importance. Therefore, unfunded credit protection is only "eligible" if it is provided by an appropriate counterparty which may include National Government, Central Bank etc.
43.2. Equity Position Risk in the Banking Book

The Bank makes investment for variety of purposes. Some of the investment positions of equity holding are made for revenue generation as part of strategic initiatives, while other equity holdings are held to earn capital gain and dividend to support the Bank's business activities.
Classification of investments

Under SBP's directives, equity investment may be classified as "Held for Trading (HFT)", "Available for Sale (AFS)" or "Investment in Subsidiaries and Associates". Some of the equity investments are listed and traded in public through stock exchanges, while other investments are unlisted.
Policies, valuation and accounting of equity investments

In accordance with the requirements of the SBP, quoted securities are carried at market value whereas investments in subsidiaries are accounted for in accordance with the relevant International Accounting Standard as applicable in Pakistan.

The unrealized surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation of the bank's held for trading investment portfolio is taken to the profit and loss account. The surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation of quoted securities classified as available for sale is kept in a separate account shown in the balance sheet below equity. The surplus / (deficit) arising on these securities is taken to the profit and loss account when actually realised upon disposal.

Unquoted equity securities are valued at the lower of cost and break-up value. Subsequent increases or decreases in the carrying value are credited / charged to profit and loss account. Break-up value of equity securities is calculated with reference to the net assets of the investee company as per the latest available audited financial statements. Investments in other unquoted securities are valued at cost less impairment losses, if any. Provision for diminution in the value of securities is made after considering impairment, if any, in their value.

Profit and loss on sale of investments is included in income currently.

43.2.1. Market Risk

The Bank is exposed to Foreign Exchange Rate Risk, Interest Rate Risk and Equity Price Risk.

Market Risk performs risk measurement, monitoring and control functions through use of various risk procedures and models. To give it a formal structure, all the policies and guidelines are approved by the Board and relevant management committees. The Bank appointed services of a foreign risk advisory firm for assistance in establishment of Market Risk Management Framework."
Market Risk Pertaining to the Trading Book

Trading Book

A trading book consists of positions in financial instruments held either with trading intent or in order to hedge other elements of the trading book. To be eligible for trading book, financial instruments must be held with the intent of trading and free of any restrictive covenants on their tradability. In addition, positions need to be frequently and accurately valued and the portfolio should be actively managed.

The Bank's trading book includes equity securities classified as 'Held for Trading' and 'Available for Sale - Non-Strategic Equity Investments'. These positions are actively managed by the capital market desk. Bank's trading book constitutes capital market equities therefore, they are exposed to equity price risk.
Risk Pertaining to Banking Book Investment Portfolio

All investments excluding trading book are considered as part of banking book. Banking book includes:

i) Available for sale securities - Strategic Portfolio

ii) Held to maturity securities

iii) Other strategic investments

Treasury investments parked in the banking book include:

i) Government securities

ii) Capital market investments

iii) Strategic investments

iv) Investments in bonds, debentures, etc

Due to the diversified nature of investments in banking book, it is subject to interest rate and equity price risk.
Interest Rate Risk - Banking Book

Government securities (PIBs & T-Bills), Bonds, Debentures, etc. and other money market investments are subject to interest rate risk. To capture the risk associated with these securities extensive modelling is being done with respect to duration analysis. Stress testing and scenario models are also in place to capture the sensitivity of the portfolio to adverse movement in interest rates. For prudent risk management, all money market investments are marked to market to assess changes in the market value of investments due to interest rate movements.
Equity Position Risk - Banking Book

The Bank's portfolio of equity securities categorized under 'Available for Sale - Strategic only' and 'any other Strategic Investments' are parked in the banking book. These investments expose the Bank to equity price risk.
Stress Testing

The Bank also conducts Stress Testing of the Bank's investment portfolio to ascertain the impact of various scenarios on the capital adequacy and sustainability of the Bank. The exercise assumes various stress conditions, with respect to Market Risk (Rise or Fall in Interest Rates, leading to interest rate risk), Equity Price Risk resulting from Stock Market movements, FX Rate Risk leading from adverse movements in exchange rates and Liquidity Risk (ability to meet short-term obligations if there is a run on deposits).
Duration GAP Analysis

A Duration Gap Analysis is also conducted to ascertain the duration gap between the Bank's assets and liabilities, to ascertain the effect of interest rate shifts on the market value of equity.
43.2.2. Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign Exchange Risk is the risk of loss arising from fluctuations of exchange rates. Our FX Risk is first controlled through substantially matched funding policy. On the mismatched exposures, the Bank utilizes appropriate derivative instruments such as Forwards and Swaps.

The majority of net foreign currency exposure is in US Dollars. The Bank is carefully monitoring the net foreign currency exposure and the effect of exchange rate fluctuations by conducting sensitivity analysis and stress testing, as well as utilizing the currency forwards and swaps to hedge the related exposure.

43.2.3. Equity Position Risk

The Board with the recommendations of ALCO approves exposure limits applicable to investments in Trading and Banking Book. Equity securities are perpetual assets and are classified under either Held for Trading Portfolio or Available for Sale Portfolio.
Concentration Risk

ALCO is responsible for making investment decisions in the capital market and setting limits that are a component of the risk management framework. Portfolio, Sector and Scrip wise limits are assigned by the ALCO to guard against concentration risk and these limits are reviewed and revised periodically. The capital market desk ensures compliance of concentration limits set by ALCO. Limit monitoring is done on a daily basis. Limit breaches if any are promptly reported to ALCO with proper reason and justification.
Price Risk

Trading and investing in equity securities give rise to price risk. ALCO and Treasury's Capital Market Unit both ensure that through prudent trading strategy and use of equity futures, the equity price risk is mitigated, albeit to a certain extent.
43.2.4. Mismatch of Interest Rate Sensitive Assets and Liabilities

Yield / interest rate sensitivity position for on-balance sheet instruments is based on the earlier of contractual re-pricing or maturity date and for off-balance sheet instruments is based on settlement date.

43.3. Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank is unable to fund its current obligations and operations in the most cost efficient manner. ALCO is the forum to oversee liquidity management. The overall Bank's principle is that the ALCO has the responsibility for ensuring that Bank's policy for liquidity management is adhered to on a continual basis.

Other than customer's deposits, the Bank's funding source is the inter-bank money market. Change in the government monetary policy and market expectations of interest rate are all important factors that can adversely affect our key funding source. Efficient and accurate planning plays a critical role in liquidity management. Our MIS provides information on expected cash inflows/out flows which allow the Bank to take timely decisions based on the future requirements.

Gap analysis, stress testing and scenario analysis is done on periodic basis to capture any adverse effect of market movements on liquidity position. Based on the results produced, ALCO devises the liquidity management strategy to maintain sufficient liquidity to deal with any related catastrophe.

43.5. Operational Risk

The Bank, like all financial institutions, is exposed to many types of operational risks, including the potential losses arising from internal activities or external events caused by breakdowns in information, communication, physical safeguards, business continuity, supervision, transaction processing, settlement systems and procedures and the execution of legal, fiduciary and agency responsibilities.

The Bank has in place a BOD approved Operational Risk Framework. Various policies and procedures with respect to this framework are currently being implemented across the Bank.

The Bank maintains a system of internal controls designed to keep operational risk at appropriate levels, in view of the bank's financial strength and the characteristics of the activities and market in which it operates. These internal controls are periodically updated to conform to industry best practice.

The Bank has also developed a Business Continuity Plan applicable to all its functional areas, with assistance of a consultant.

The Bank is currently in the process of implementing internationally accepted Internal Control-Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Tread way Commission (COSO), with a view to consolidate and enhance the existing internal control processes.

Currently the Bank uses the Basic Indicator Approach for assessing its operational risk capital charge. However, migration to Standardised Approach is planned for future. For this purpose the bank is currently implementing required systems and technology.
44. NON ADJUSTING EVENT AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

The Board of Directors of the Bank in its meeting held on February 11, 2011 has proposed a cash dividend in respect of 2010 of Rs. 2.0 per share (2009: Rs. 2.00 per share). In addition, the directors have also announced a bonus issue of 10% (2009: 10%). These appropriations will be approached in the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.
