However, investments have been classified in accordance with the requirements prescribed by the State Bank of Pakistan through various circulars.
4. BASIS OF MEASUREMENT

5. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

5.1. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash and balances with treasury bank and balances with other banks.

5.2. LENDINGS TO / BORROWINS FROM FINANCIAL AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS

The bank enters into transactions of repos and reverse repos at contracted rates for a specified period of time. These are recorded as under:

(a) Sale under repurchase obligation

Securities sold subject to a re-purchase agreement (repo) are retained in the financial statements as investments and the counter party liability is included in borrowings. The differential in sale and re-purchase value is accrued over the period of the contract and recorded as an expense.

(b) Purchase under resale obligation

Securities purchase under agreement to resell (reverse repo) are included in lendings to financial and other institutions. The differential between the contracted price and resale price is amortised over the period of the contract and recorded as income.

(c) Other borrowings

These are recorded at the proceeds received. Mark-up paid on such borrowings is charged to the profit and loss account over the period of borrowings.
5.3. INVESTMENTS

The bank classifies its investments as follows:

(a) Held for trading

These are securities, which are either acquired for generating a profit from short-term fluctuation in market prices, interest rate movements, dealers margin or are securities included in a portfolio in which a pattern of short-term profit making 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 investment that do not fall under the held for trading or held to maturity categories. All purchase and sale of investments that require delivery within the time frame established by regulation or market convention are recognised at the trade date, which is the date the bank commits to purchase or sell the investment.

Premium or discount on acquisition of investments is capitalised and amortised through the profit and loss account over the remaining period till maturity. In accordance with the requirements of State Bank of Pakistan, quoted securities other than those classified as held to maturity are stated at market value.

During the year the bank has changed its accounting policy in respect of accounting for unrealised surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation of held for trading securities. As per the new policy, surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation of the bank's held for trading securities is taken to the profit and loss account.

This change has been made to comply with the requirements laid down in BSD Circular No. 10 dated 13 July 2004 issued by the State Bank of Pakistan. Previously, this surplus/(deficit) was required to be shown in the balance sheet below equity as per the State Bank of Pakistan's BSD Circular No. 20 dated 4 August 2000.

The change in policy did not have any impact on the profit for the year as the bank has not classified any securities in this category.

During the year, the bank has also changed its accounting policy in respect of valuation of investments classified as held to maturity. According to the new policy, these investments are carried at amortised cost. Previously, these investments were marked to market as per the requirements of SBP's BSD Circular No 20 dated 4 August 2000 and the related surplus / (deficit) was shown in the balance sheet below equity.

This change has been made to comply with the requirements laid down in BSD Circular No. 14 dated 24 September 2004, issued by the State Bank of Pakistan. The change in accounting policy did not have any impact on the profit and loss account for the current and the prior period. Had the accounting policy not been changed, the surplus on revaluation of assets and the value of investments as at 31 December 2004 would have been lower by Rs 57.90 and Rs 93.40 million respectively and deferred tax liability would have been lower by Rs 35.50 million.

The surplus / (deficit) arising on quoted securities classified as available for sale is kept in a separate account shown in the balance sheet below equity. 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 income.

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.

Provision for diminution in the values of securities (except term finance certificates) is made after considering permanent impairment, if any, in their value. Provisions for diminution in value of term finance certificates is made as per the Prudential Regulations issued by the State Bank of Pakistan. Profit and loss on sale of investments is included in income currently.

5.4. ADVANCES

Advances are stated at cost less specific and general provisions. Specific provision is made for non performing advances in accordance with the requirements of the Prudential Regulations issued by the State Bank of Pakistan. The bank also maintains general provision for present potential losses of performing advances and consumer financing portfolio.

5.5. FIXED ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION

OWNED

Owned assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss (if any) except capital work in progress which is stated at cost. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over the useful lives of the related assets under the straight line method. Fixtures costing Rs 10,000 or less and all other items of fixed assets costing Rs 2,000 or less are not capitalised and charged to income.

Maintenance and normal repairs are charged to income as and when incurred. Major renewals and improvements are capitalised. Gains and losses on sale of fixed assets are included in income currently.

LEASED

Property and equipment subject to finance lease are accounted for by recording the assets and the related liability. These are stated at lower of fair value and present value of minimum lease payments at inception of the lease less accumulated depreciation.

Financial charges are allocated over the period of lease term in a manner so as to provide a constant periodic rate of financial charge on the outstanding liability. Depreciation on assets held under finance lease is charged in a manner consistent with that for depreciable assets which are owned by the bank.

5.6. OPERATING LEASES

Lease payments under operating leases are charged to income on a straight line basis over the lease term.

5.7. TAXATION

CURRENT

Provision for current taxation is based on the taxable income for the year determined in accordance with the prevailing laws for taxation on income. The charge for the current tax is calculated using prevailing tax rates.

The charge for current tax also includes adjustments, where considered necessary relating to prior years, arising from assessments made during the year.

DEFERRED

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities used for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for taxation purposes.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised.

Deferred tax asset is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefits will be realised. Deferred tax, if any, on revaluation of investments is recognised as an adjustment to surplus / (deficit) arising on revaluation.

5.8. PROVISIONS

Provisions are recognised when the bank has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.

Outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign bills purchased excluding swap contracts are valued at the rates applicable to the respective maturities. However, premium on swap contracts is amortised over the period of swap and the movement in ready rates since the initiation of swap is also accounted for. Exchange gains and losses are included in the current income.

5.13. Provision for guarantee claims and other off balance sheet obligations

27.2. The income tax assessments of the bank have been finalised upto and including the assessment year 2002-2003 (income year ended 31 December 2002). Matters of disagreement exist between the bank and tax authorities for the assessment years 1993-1994 and 1998-1999 to 2002-2003 and are pending with the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) and Income Tax Appellate Tribunal.

The issues mainly relate to addition of mark-up in suspense to income and disallowances of certain expenses. The Bank has, however, made provisions in respect of these disallowances on account of prudence.

31. DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN

31.1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The benefits under the gratuity scheme are payable on retirement at the age of 60 or earlier cessation of service, in lumpsum. The benefit is equal to one month's last drawn salary for each year of eligible service or part thereof, subject to a minimum of five years of service.

31.2. PRINCIPAL ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS

The actuarial valuation is carried out annually at year-end using "Projected Unit Credit Actuarial Cost Method". The main assumptions used for actuarial valuation were as follows:

- Discount rate is 8% per annum.

- Expected rate of increase in salaries is 8% per annum.

- Expected rate of return on investments is 8% per annum.

- Withdrawal rate before normal retirement age is "moderate".

A portion of the actuarial gain or losses is recognised if the net cumulative unrecognised actuarial gains or losses at the end of the previous year exceeds the "corridor" which is defined as the greater of:

a) 10% of the present value of the defined benefit obligation at that date (before deducting plan assets) and;

b) 10% of the fair value of any plan assets at that date.

33.1. The deposits and other accounts include saving deposits which have no contractual maturity, however these deposits have been allocated into the above item bands based on actual trend of withdrawal of the said deposits.

33.2. The bank's Asset and Liability Committee regularly monitors liquidity risk by taking corrective measures in respect of the maturity mismatch in its assets and liabilities.
34. YIELD / INTEREST RATE RISK

Yield risk is the risk decline in earnings due to adverse movement of the yield curve. Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in the market interest rates.

The bank is exposed to yield/interest rate risk as a result of mismatches or gaps in the amount of assets and liabilities and off balance sheet instruments that mature or re-price in a given period. The bank manages this risk by matching the re-pricing of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments. The bank's yield/ interest rate sensitivity position, based on the earlier of contractual re-pricing or maturity date, is as follows:

The on-balance sheet gap represents the net amounts of on-balance sheet items.

(a) The effective interest rate is a historical rate for a fixed rate instrument carried at amortised cost and a current market rate for a floating rate instrument.

(b) The effective interest rate has been computed by excluding non-performing advances.

(c) The effective interest rate has been computed by excluding non-remunerative deposits.
35. CURRENCY RISK

Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to change in foreign exchange rates. Foreign currency forward contracts are revalued daily on mark to market basis which reflects the extent risk against each contract.

Other off balance sheet items are revalued at each balance sheet date. The bank also maintains overall foreign exchange risk position within ten percent of its capital as advised by the State Bank of Pakistan.

The fair value of Government Securities, listed Term Finance Certificates, listed share, units of mutual funds and WAPDA Registered Bonds is based on quoted prices. In the opinion of management, the fair value of remaining financial assets and liabilities are not significantly different from the book value since assets and liabilities are either short term in nature or frequently re-priced, except for fixed term advances of over one year, staff loans and fixed term deposits of over one year.

In the opinion of management, the fair value of fixed term advances of over one year, staff loans and fixed term deposits of over one year cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability due to non-availability of relevant active market for similar asset and liabilities.

37. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT AND DEPOSITS

37.1. CREDIT RISK AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The bank attempts to control credit risk by monitoring credit exposures, limiting transactions with specific counter-parties and continually assessing the credit worthiness of counter-parties. It also obtains security where appropriate.

Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of counter-parties are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographical region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by change in economic, political or other conditions.

Concentration of credit risk indicates the relatives sensitive of the bank's performance of developments, affecting a particular industry or geographical location. The bank seeks to manage its credit risk exposure through diversification of lending activities to avoid overdue concentration of risks with individuals or groups of customer in specific location or business.
