9 National Bank of Egypt S.A.E Notes to the Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December Translation of financial statements 1. General information National Bank of Egypt (S.A.E) was established as a commercial bank on 25/6/1898 and operates in conformity with Law No. 88 for 2003 in Arab Republic of Egypt. The head office is located in Cairo. National Bank of Egypt (S.A.E) provides retail corporate and investment banking services in Arab Republic of Egypt through its head office and branches representative offices in Johannesburg (South Africa) Dubai (United Arab of Emirates) and Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) and through branches in New York (United States) Shanghai (China). The bank employs staff at the reporting date. 2. Summary of significant accounting policies The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. A- Basis of preparation of the separate financial statements The separate financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Egyptian Accounting Standards and Central Bank of Egypt instructions approved by its Board of Directors on 16 December 2008 and it`s appendices of explanatory instructions in April Under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities held for trading financial assets and financial liabilities classified at inception at fair value through profit and loss available for sale investments and all financial derivatives contracts. B- Foreign currency translation B/1 Functional and presentation currency Financial statements accounts that includes overseas branches balances are measured using the main economic environment currency where the branch` activities are in (functional currency). The financial statements of the Bank are presented in Egyptian pounds which is the Bank s functional and presentation currency. B/2 Transactions and balances in foreign currencies The Bank maintains its accounting records in Egyptian pounds. Foreign currency transactions during the fiscal period are translated into Egyptian pound using the prevailing exchange rates on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-evaluated at the end of each financial period at the prevailing exchange rates on that date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settlement of such transactions and valuation differences are recognized in the income statement under the following line items: - Net trading income or net income on the financial instruments classified at inception in fair value through the profit and loss of assets / liabilities held for trading or those classified at inception in fair value through profit and loss according to their type. - Shareholders' equity for financial derivatives which are eligible for qualified hedge for cash flows or qualified hedge for net investment. - Other operating income (expenses) for the remaining items. Changes in the fair value of the financial instruments with monetary nature in foreign currencies classified as investments available for sale (debt instruments) are analyzed into valuation differences resulting from changes in amortized cost of the instrument differences resulting from changes in the prevailing exchange rates or differences resulting from changes in the instrument`s fair value. The valuation differences resulting from the change in amortized cost are recognized in income statement within ''Interest income on loans and similar income''. The differences resulting from the changes in the exchange rates are recognized in "Other operating 1

10 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December income (expenses) whereas the change in fair value (fair value reserve/financial investments available for sale) are recognized within shareholders` equity. The revaluation differences resulting from items other than those with monetary nature include the gains and losses resulting from the change of the fair value such as the equity instruments held in fair value through profit and loss. The revaluation differences resulting from equity instruments classified as financial investments available for sale are recognized within the fair value reserve in the shareholders` equity. B Overseas branches Financial position and performance of overseas branches` operations are translated to the bank s reporting currency (if these branches do not operate in a rapidly inflated environment) which is different to its functional currency as follows: - Assets and liabilities of each presented foreign branch`s balance sheet are translated using the closing exchange rates at the balance sheet date. - Revenues and expenses of each foreign branch`s income statement are translated using average exchange rates unless if this average doesn t represent an acceptable approximate rate to the cumulative effect of prevailing exchange rates at transactions date. In this case revenues and expenses are translated using the spot exchange rates at the date of these transactions. Resulted foreign exchange revaluation differences are recognized in separate account (foreign exchange revaluation) in the shareholders` equity. In addition valuation differences resulting from valuation of net investment in foreign branches loans financial instruments in foreign currency specified for net investment hedge for that item retained to equity caption. These valuation differences recognized as other operating income loss in income statement when these net investments disposed. C- Financial assets: The Bank classifies its financial assets in the following categories: Trading financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; loans and receivables; held-to-maturity investments; and available-for-sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition. C/1 Trading financial investment: The financial instrument is classified on the basis that it is held for trading if it is acquired and holds its value mainly for the purpose of selling in the short term or if it represents part of a portfolio of specific financial instruments that are managed together and there is an evidence of recent actual transaction results profit in the short term. C/ Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market other than: - Those that the bank intends to sell immediately or in the short term are classified as trading or those that the bank recorded upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss. - Those that the bank upon initial recognition designates as available for sale. - Those for which the Bank may not recover substantially all of its initial investment other than because of credit deterioration. C C Financial investments held to maturity: Held to maturity financial investments are non-derivative assets that carry fixed or determinable payments and where the bank has the intention and the ability to hold to maturity. Any sale of a significant amount not close to the date of its maturity would result in the reclassification of all held to maturity investments as available for sale except cases of necessity. Financial investments available for sale Available for sale financial investments are non-derivatives financial assets that are intended to be held for unspecified period and may be sold to provide liquidity or due to changes in shares prices foreign exchange currencies or interest rate. 2

11 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December C/5 Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all companies (including special purpose entities) over which the Bank has owned direct or indirect power to govern the financial and operating policies. Generally the bank owns more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or are considered when assessing whether the Bank has the ability to control the entity. C/6 Associate companies - Associates are all companies over which the Bank has owned directly or indirectly significant influence but not control generally the bank owns between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. - The purchase method is used to account for the acquisitions of subsidiaries by the Bank. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets or/and asset given or/and equity instruments issued and loans assumed at the date of exchange plus costs. - Net assets including contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date irrespective of the minority interest. The excess of acquisition cost over the Bank s share fair value in the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the acquisition cost is less than the fair value of the net assets the difference is recognized directly in the income statement under the item "Other operating income/ expenses and accounting for subsidiaries and associates in the separate financial statements is recorded by using cost method. According to this method investments recorded at cost of acquisition including goodwill if any and impairment losses are deducted. Dividends are recorded in the income statement when adoption of the distribution has been occurred and affirming the Bank s right in collecting them has been recognized. The following is applied to financial assets: - Purchase and sale transactions of the financial assets recognized at fair value through profit and loss of the held-tomaturity financial investments and of the available-for-sale investments shall be recognized in the ordinary way on the trade date on which the bank is committed to purchase or sell the asset. - Financial assets that are not classified at fair value through profit and loss at initial recognition are recognized at fair value plus transaction cost while the financial assets classified as at fair value through profit and loss are initially recognized at fair value only and the transaction cost is recognized in the profit and loss under "net trading income" - Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or when the bank transfers all asset risks and rewards to another party while a financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expired. - Available for sale financial investments and financial assets designated at fair value through profit and loss are subsequently measured at fair value. While loans and advances and held to maturity investments are measured subsequently at amortized cost. - Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value of financial assets designated at fair value through profit and loss are recorded in income statement during the year it occurred while gains and losses arising from changes in fair value of available for sale financial investments are recognized in "fair value reserve for available for sale investments" in equity until the financial asset is sold or impaired at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity should be recognized in profit or loss. - Interest income related to monetary assets classified as available for sale is recognized based on the amortized cost method in profit and loss. The foreign currency revaluation differences related to available for sale investments are recognized in the profit and loss. Dividends related to available for sale equity instruments are recognized in the profit and loss when they are declared. - The fair values of quoted investments in active markets are based on current bid prices. If there is no active market for a financial asset the Bank establishes fair value using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm s length transactions discounted cash flow analysis option pricing models or other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants if the Bank could not assess the value of the equity classified as available for sale these instruments should be valued at cost after deducting any amount of impairment (if any). - Debt instruments can be reclassified from the available for sale investments to "loans and receivables" or" financial assets held to maturity" using fair value when the bank has the intention and ability to hold the instrument on the future or till maturity. Any related profits or losses that have been previously recognized in equity are treated as follows: 3

12 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December. In case of the reclassification of financial assets with fixed maturity date the gains or losses shall be amortized over the remaining lifetime of the investment held to maturity by using the effective interest rate method. Any value difference based on the amortized cost and the value based on maturity date shall be amortized over the remaining lifetime of the financial asset by using the effective interest rate method. Later in case of any impairment in the financial asset value any gains or losses previously recognized directly among shareholders equity shall be recognized in the profit /loss statement.. In case of the financial asset that has undeterminable maturity date the gains or losses shall remain within shareholders' equity until the asset is sold or disposed and then be recognized within profit /loss statement. Later in case of any impairment in the asset's value any gains or losses previously recognized directly in shareholders equity shall be recognized in the profits and losses as well. -If the bank changes its estimates regarding payments or proceeds the book value of a financial asset (or group of financial assets) has to be adjusted to reflect the actual cash flows and the change in this estimate through calculating the present value of estimated future cash flows using the effective interest rate for the financial instrument. This adjustment shall be recognized as either income or expense in the profit and loss. -In all cases if the bank reclassifies a financial asset according to the above mentioned and on a subsequent date it raises its estimates of future cash receipts due to an increase in recovered cash then the impact of this increase shall be recognized as an adjustment of the actual rate of return from the date of the estimates change and not as a settlement to the asset's book balance on the date of estimates change. D- Offsetting Financial Instruments Financial assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The agreements of purchase of treasury bills with the commitment to resell and the agreements for selling treasury bills with the commitment to repurchase shall be presented based on the net in the balance sheet within the item of treasury bills and other governmental notes. E- Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting - Derivatives are recognized at fair value at the date of the derivative contract and are subsequently revaluated at fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active markets or according to the recent market deals or using the revaluation methods like the discounted cash flow modules and option pricing models as appropriate. Derivatives are classified as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. - The derivatives embedded in other financial instruments such as the conversion option of convertible bonds into shares are treated as separate derivatives when the economic features and risks are not closely related to the host contract which is not classified at fair value through profit and loss. Such embedded derivatives are measured at the fair value. The changes in fair value are recognized under the net trading income in the income statement. The embedded derivatives will not be accounted for separately if the Bank determines to designate the entire hybrid (combined) contract as at fair value through profit and loss. - The profit and loss arising from the fair value is recognized depending on whether the derivative is designed to be a hedge instrument and the nature or the hedged item. The Bank designates certain derivatives as one of the follows: Hedges for the fair value risk of the recognized assets and liabilities or the confirmed commitments (Fair Value Hedges) Hedges for the highly future expected cash flow risks attributable to a recognized asset or liability or attributable to a forecasted transaction (Cash flow hedges). Hedges of net investment in foreign operations (Net investment hedge) The hedge accounting is adopted for the derivatives designed for this purpose if they meet the requirements. - At the inception of a transaction the relationship between the hedged items and the hedging instruments are documented by the stating the objectives of risk management and a strategy for undertaking various hedging transactions. Furthermore at the inception of a hedge and on ongoing basis the Bank produces consistently necessary documentation to estimate whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions work effectively to offset the changes in the fair value or the cash flow of the hedged item. 4

13 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December E/1 Fair Value Hedge If the changes in the fair value of the derivative that qualifies for the fair value hedges are recognized in the Income Statement with any changes in the fair value attributed to the risk of the hedged asset or liability. The effect of the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps and related hedged items is accounted for as "Net Interest Income". The effect of the changes in the fair value of the futures is accounted for as Net Trading Income. If the hedge does not satisfy the requirements of the hedge accounting the adjusted book value of the hedged item measured by the amortized cost will be amortized by deducting from the profit and loss over the period until maturity. The adjustments made to the book value of the hedged shareholders' equity instrument remain in the shareholders' equity until it is ruled out. E/2 Cash Flow Hedge The effective part of the changes in the fair value of the derivatives qualified for the cash flow hedges are recognized in the shareholders' equity. The profit and loss related to the ineffective part are immediately recognized under "net trading income" in the Income Statement. The amount accumulated in the shareholders' equity is carried forward to the Income Statement in the same periods when the hedged item has an effect on the profit and loss. The profit and loss related to the effective part of the currency swaps and options are carried forward to 'Net Trading Income". When the hedged instrument matures or is sold or if it does not satisfy the hedge accounting the profit or loss accumulated shall remain in shareholders equity ". It is recognized in the Income Statement when the forecasted transaction is finally recognized. When there is no forecasted transaction to be conducted the profit or loss accumulated in the shareholders' equity are carried forward to the Income Statement. E/3 Net Investment Hedge Similar to the cash flow hedges net investment hedges are accounted for. The profit or loss of the hedged instrument related to the effective part of the hedge is recognized in the shareholders' equity. On the other hand the profit or loss or the ineffective part is recognized in the Income Statement. The profit or loss accumulated in the shareholders' equity is carried forward to the Income Statement when the foreign operations. E/4 Unqualified derivatives for Hedge Accounting The changes in the fair value of the unqualified derivatives for hedge accounting are recognized under "Net Trading Income" in the Income Statement. The profit and loss arising from the changes in the fair value of the derivatives subject to the correlation with the financial assets and liabilities classified at inception at fair value through profit and loss are recognized under "net income from the financial instrument classified at inception at fair value through profits and loss" in the Income Statement. 5

14 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December F- Income and Expense of Interest Interest income and Expense related to financial instruments except for held for trading investments or recorded at fair value through profit and loss is recognized under ''interest and similar income'' or cost of deposit and similar charges. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or liability and allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant year. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter year when appropriate to reach the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. When calculating the effective interest rate the Bank estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example prepayment options) but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees paid or received between the contract`s parties which is considered part of the effective interest rate the cost of the transaction includes all premiums or discounts. When loans or debts are classified as non-performing or impaired related interest income are not recognized but rather are carried off balance sheet in statistical records and are recognized as revenues according to cash basis as per the following: - When collected and after recovery of all arrears for retail loans personal loans small and medium business loans mortgage loans for personal housing and small loans for businesses. - For loans granted to corporate interest income is recognized on cash basis after the Bank collects 25% of the scheduling installments and after the installments continued to be regular for at least one year. Interest income will not be recognized as revenue until full payment of the loan balance before the rescheduling and client is considered to be performing. G- Fees and Commission Income Fees and commissions related to loan and advances are recognized as income when the service is provided. Fees and commission income related to non-performing or impaired loans or debts are suspended and are carried off balance sheet and are recognized under income according to the cash basis when interest income is recognized. Fees and commissions which represent part of the financial asset effective rate are recognized as adjustment to the effective interest rate. Commitment fees recognized as revenue when there is probability that this loan will be used by the customer as commitment fees represent compensation for the continuing interfere to own the financial asset. Subsequently it s recognized as adjustments to the effective interest rate of the loan. If the commitment year passed without issuing the loan commitment fees is recognized as income at the end of the commitment year. Fees and commission related to debt instruments measured by fair value is recognized as income at initial recognition. Fees and commission related to marketing of syndicated loan is recognized as income when the marketing is completed and the loan is fully used or the Bank kept its share of the syndicated loan using the effective interest rate as used by the other participants. Commission and fees arising from negotiation or participating in a negotiation to the favor of a third party as in share acquisition arrangements or purchase of securities or purchase or sale of businesses are recognized as income when the transaction is completed commission and fees related to management advisory and other service are recognized as income based on the contract terms usually on a time appropriate basis. Financial planning and custody services fees that are provided on long term are recognized over the year in which the service is provided. H- Dividend Income Dividends are recognized in the income statement when the bank s right to receive those dividends is declared. 6

15 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December I- Purchase with Resale Agreements and Sale with Repurchase Agreements Securities sold subject to repurchase agreements (Repos) are reclassified in the financial statements added to treasury bills balance. Securities purchased subject to resell agreements (Reverse Repos) are reclassified in the financial statements by deducted from treasury bills balance. The difference between sale and repurchase price is treated as interest and accrued over the life of the agreements using the effective interest rate method. J- Impairment of Financial Assets J/1 Financial Assets Carried at Amortized Cost: At each balance sheet date the bank estimates whether there is objective evidence that any financial asset or group of financial assets has been impaired as a result of one or more events occurring since they were initially recognized a loss event/s and whether that loss events have an impacted on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. The bank considers any of the following indicators to determine the existence of substantive evidence for impairment losses: Great financial troubles facing the borrower or debtor. Breach of the loan agreement such as non-payment. Expected bankruptcy of borrower or subject to liquidation lawsuit or re-structuring the finance granted to it. Deterioration of competitive position of borrower. Granting privileges or assignments by the bank to the borrower due to economic or legal reasons which are not granted by the bank in the normal course of business. Impairment of guarantee. Deterioration of creditworthiness. An objective proof for impairment loss of the financial assets is the existence of clear information indicating a measurable decrease in the expected future cash flows of such category since initial recognition although such decrease is not identifiable for each individual asset for example increasing in the default cases number of a banking product. The bank estimates the period between a loss occurring and its identification for each specific portfolio in general between 3 to 12 m. The bank first estimates whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant taking into consideration the following: - If the bank determines that no objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred on a financial instrument considered individually whether significant or not the bank includes that financial asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively the whole group for impairment. - An individually impairment test is made for a financial asset if there is objective evidence that this asset is impaired. If the impairment occurred then this asset will be separated from group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment. - If the result of the previously test did not recognize impairment loss then this asset will be added to the group of financial assets. Impairment loss is calculated by the difference between the assets` carrying amount and the present value of estimated future estimated cash flows excluding future expected credit loss that have not been incurred yet discounted at the financial assets original effective interest rate. And the book value of the financial asset is reduced through using "impairment loss provision the privation of credit impairment recognized through the income statement. 7

16 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December - If there is evidence that loan or other receivables or financial assets classified as held to maturity carry floating interest rate the discount rate will be the contract effective interest rate when there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred. For practical purposes the bank may measure the impairment loss using the fair value of the instrument through its market rate. - For guaranteed financial assets present value for expected futures cash flow has to be considered in addition to the proceeds from sale of guarantee after deducting selling cost. For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics according to the bank classification taking into consideration type of asset industry geographical location collateral past-dues and other relevant factors. Those characteristics are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for that group of assets as they are indicators of the debtors ability to pay all amounts due according to its contract terms for assets under study. If historical impairment losses rates method is used for a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment future contractual cash flow will be used by the bank in future and the historical loss for a group of assets with similar credit risk characteristics are considered. Historical impairment loss rates are adjusted to reflect the effects of current circumstances that did not affect the year on which the historical impairment loss rates is based and to remove the effects of circumstances in the historical year that are not currently exist. The bank has to ensure that the estimates of changes in future cash flows for groups of assets are in consistence with changes in relative data from year to year such as changes in unemployment rates real estate prices settlement status or other factors that may affect the probability and magnitude of losses. The Bank reviews the basis and methods of estimation regularly. J/2 Available for Sale Investments: At each balance sheet date the Bank estimates if there is objective evidence that impairment loss for an asset or a group of assets classified as available-for-sale or held to maturity is occurred. For listed equity instruments classified as available for sale investments impairment is recognized if as its significant and a prolonged decline its price below its acquisition cost is observed. The decline in value is considered as a significant one for the equity instruments if it reaches 10% of the financial instrument s carrying g value`s cost and it is considered as a prolonged one if it continues for more than 9 months. When a decline in the fair value of an available for sale financial asset has been recognized directly in equity under fair value reserve and subsequent objective evidence of impairment emerges the Bank recognizes the total accumulated loss previously recognized equity will be recognized in profit and loss. Impairment losses recognized on equity instruments on profit or loss are not subsequently reversed. Impairment losses recognized through profit or loss on debt instruments classified as available for sale are reversed through profit and loss if the price subsequently increased and this increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of impairment loss in profit or loss. K- Investments property Investments property represent land and buildings the bank owns in order to obtain rental revenue or capital appreciation. Consequently these investments do not include properties used by the bank for its operations and activities or the assets reverted to the bank in settlement of debts. The same accounting method for investment property is the same method applied for the fixed assets. 8

17 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December L- Intangible Assets L Software (computer programs) The expenses related to upgrading or maintenance of computer programs are to be recognized as expenses in income statement when incurred. The expenses connected directly with specific software and which are subject to the bank's control and expected to produce economic benefits exceeding their cost for more than one year are to be recognized as an intangible asset. The direct expenses include staff cost of software upgrading teamwork in addition to a suitable portion of respective overhead expenses. The expenses which lead to increase or expansion of computer software beyond their original specifications are recognized as an upgrading cost and are added to the original software cost. The computer software cost recognized as an asset shall be amortized over the year expected useful life not more than three years. L Other Intangible Assets Represents intangible assets other than goodwill and computer software (for example but not limited to: trademark license and benefits of rent agreement). Other intangible assets recognized at cost and shall be amortized using straight-line method or according to economic benefit expected to be received over its estimated useful life. Other intangible assets that do not have a finite useful life shall not be subject to amortization; however they shall be tested for impairment annually impairment (if any) shall be charged to income statement. M- Fixed Assets They represent land and buildings related to head office branches and offices and all fixed assets are reported at historical cost minus depreciation and impairment losses. The historical cost includes the costs directly related to acquisition of fixed assets items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset s carrying amount or are recognized as a separate asset as appropriate 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. Maintenance and repair expenses are charged to other operating expenses during the financial year in which they are incurred. - Improvement on leasing assets are charged as an expense on income statement. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives as follows: Building Furniture Fixture and fittings Vehicles Automated integrated machinery Vault doors 20 years 4 years 10 years 5 years 4 years 10 years N- Impairment of Non-Financial Assets Assets other than goodwill which do not have a finite useful life shall not be subject to amortization and shall be tested annually to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. Impairment of depreciable assets shall be reviewed whenever there are events or changes in conditions indicating that the book value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset`s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset`s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. Assets are tested for impairment with reference to the lowest level of cash generating unit(s). A previously recognized impairment loss related to a fixed asset may be reversed in part or in full when a change in circumstances leads to a change in the estimates used to determine the fixed asset`s recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the fixed asset will only be increased up to the amount that the original impairment has been recognized. 9

P- Other Provisions Provisions for restructuring costs and legal claims are recognized when the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; where it is more likely that it required to use the bank resources to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated. Where there are a number of similar obligations the likelihood that an outflow is required to settle an obligation is determine taking into consideration the group of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any obligation in the group is minimal. Provisions no longer required are reversed in other operating income (expense). Provisions are measured at the present value of the expected required expenditures to settle obligations after one year from the financial statement date using the appropriate rate in accordance with the terms of settlement effect which reflects the time value of money (without the effect of applicable tax rate) If the settlement term is less than one year the provision is booked by the estimated amount of the liability unless this consideration has a significant effect then present value is used. Q- Financial Guarantees Contracts The financial guarantees contracts are contracts issued by the bank as security for loans or overdrafts due from its customers to other entities which require the bank to make certain payments to compensate the beneficiary for a loss incurred due to default of the debtor on maturity date and in accordance with debt instrument conditions. These financial guarantees are given to the banks corporations and other entities on behalf of the bank's customers. It is initially recognized at fair value including guarantee fees at the date of granting. Subsequently the Bank s obligation shall be measured by the value initially recognized less guarantee fees amortization which is recognized in the profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the higher of the guarantee life term or over the best payment estimates required to settle the financial obligation resulted from the financial guarantee at the balance sheet date. These estimates are mainly based on management experience with similar transactions and historical losses. Any increase in the obligations resulted from the financial guarantee is recognized in "other operating income (expenses)" caption. R- Employee's Benefits Employee's benefits include all financial and nonfinancial benefits provided by the bank to its employees for their offered services to the bank. R/1 Short-term Employee's Benefits Short-term employee's benefits include salaries and wages social insurance subscription fees paid annual leave days service bonus (if accrued within 12 months from the financial period ends) and non-financial benefits (as healthcare housing utilities transportation free and subsided services provided to current employees). Short-term employee's benefits are charged to the income statement as an expense for the period in which the service was provided to the bank's employees who are entitled to receive these benefits. R/2 Early termination-service's Benefits Early termination-service's benefits include accrued benefits for the employees who are early terminated in accordance with the regulations approved from board of directors'. The bank recognizes the cost of this benefits at the early termination date according to the optional early termination scheme in which the expenses are charged to the income statement for the accrued payment period of such benefits. 11

19 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December R/3 Pension Benefits-specific subscription scheme: Social insurance: Pension Liabilities includes the bank's contribution to the social insurance and that is for the benefit of the employees according to the Law of the Social Insurance No. (79) for the year of 1975 and its amendments.as the bank pays its contribution in the social insurance authority for each period. This contribution is charged to the income statement in salaries and wages included in the general and administrative expenses for the period in which the bank's employees provide their services. The bank's obligation accountability is by the settlement of pension benefits as it is considered as defined subscription scheme therefore there would be no additional obligation on the bank related to employee's pension benefits expect its contribution of social insurance which are accrued to be settled by the bank on behalf of them for the authority. Special Insurance Fund The bank pays the fund's share (the private insurance fund) from the determined annual variable wages in accordance with the fund's primary statues which enclose that a yearly member's subscription fees have to be paid as of six and half month from the monthly subscription fees paid by the members. The fund's offers a defined single installment benefit in cases such as (Retirement in 60's age Death Early termination or Resignation) A variable post-employment monthly compensation is to be offered for ten years and the amount is to be determined based on the employee rank. The bank's accountability base is by the payment of such benefits which considered as defined subscription scheme. R/4 Other Post-Service's Benefits-Healthcare The bank provides healthcare benefits for pensioners after service ends customarily on condition; the benefits are accrued whenever the employee is in service for years. The accountability of the healthcare commitment considered as pension benefit scheme. The recognized liability in the balance sheet with regards to pensioner's healthcare system is represented in the present value of the defined benefits liabilities at the balance sheet s date after deducting the fair value of the regulation's assets and debiting (crediting) unrealized actuarial reconciliations of profits (losses) as well as the cost of additional benefits related to prior service terms. An independent actuary who applies the Projected Unit Credit Method calculates the liability of the defined benefit plans (future cash flows expected to be paid) annually. The present value of the identified plans liability is determined through deducting these expected future cash flows to be paid by applying the rate of return of high quality corporate bonds or the rate of return of government bonds in the same currency to be used in payment of benefits and which have almost the same maturity period as the retirement benefits obligations related to them. Calculated gains (losses) resulting from changes and adjustments in actuarial estimates and assumptions are to be deducted from (the losses added to) the income statement if they Do not exceed % of the plan assets value or % of the defined benefits liability whichever is higher. In case gains (losses) rise above-mentioned percentage then the increase shall be deducted (added) in the income statements. Post-service costs are immediately recognized in the income statement within administrative expenses unless the introduced changes on the retirements plans are conditional on the remaining of employees in service for a specified period of time (vesting period). R Other Post-Employment Benefits The bank extends health care benefits to retirees after the end of service term. Usually such benefits are conditional on the stay of the employee in the service until retirement age and the completion of a minimum period of service. The expected costs of these benefits are to be matured (vested) over the period of employment by adopting an accounting method similar to the method adopted in the defined pension benefit scheme. 11

20 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December S- Income Tax The income tax on the bank s profit or loss at the end of the year includes both the current and deferred taxes. Income tax is recognized in the income statement except income taxes related to shareholder's equity items that are recognized directly in the equity. The income tax is calculated on the net taxable income using the effective tax rate at the balance sheet date in addition to prior year tax adjustments. Deferred tax is recognized due to the temporary differences resulting from reporting the value of assets and liabilities in one year for tax purpose and in another year for financial accounting purpose. Deferred tax is determined based on the method used to realize or settle the current values of these assets and liabilities using the tax rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. The deferred tax assets shall be recognized if it is probable that sufficient taxable profits shall be realized in the future whereby the asset can be utilized and the value of deferred tax assets shall be reduced by the value of portion not yielding the expected tax benefit. However in case tax benefit is highly expected the deferred tax assets shall increase to the extent of previous reduction. T- Borrowings Loans are recognized initially at fair value net of transaction costs incurred. Loan subsequently stated at amortized cost. Any difference between proceeds net of transaction costs and the value is recognized in the income statement over the period of loan using the effective interest rate method. Financial Risk Management: The bank as a result of the activities it exercises is exposed to various financial risks. Since the basis of financial activity is to accept risks; some risks or group of risks are analyzed evaluated and managed altogether. The bank intends to strike a balance between the risk and return and to reduce the probable adverse effects on the bank s financial performance. The most important types of risks are credit risk market risk liquidity risk and other operating risks. The market risk comprises foreign currency exchange rates interest rate risk and other pricing risks. The bank s risk management policies are designed to identify and analyze these risks set limits to the risk and control them through reliable methods and updated systems. The bank regularly reviews the risk management policies and systems and amend them to reflect the changes in market products and services and emerging best practice. Those risks are managed by risk department in the light of policies approved by Board of Directors. The risk department determines evaluates and covers the financial risks in collaboration with the bank s various operating units and the Board of Directors provides written policies for management of risks as a whole in addition to written policies covering specific risk areas like credit risk foreign exchange rate risk interest rate risk and using the financial derivative and non derivative instruments. Moreover the risk department is independently responsible for periodical review of risk management and control environment. A- Credit Risk The bank takes on exposure to the credit risk which it is the risk resulting from failure of one party to meet its contractual obligations towards the Bank. The credit risk is considered to be the most significant risks for the bank so the bank set specific procedures to manage that risk. The credit risks in the lending and investments activities which are represented bank s assets contain debt instruments. The credit risk is also found in off balance sheet financial instruments like loan commitment. The managing and monitoring process on credit risk is centralized at credit risk team management at credit risk department that prepare reports to Board of Directors and Head units on regular basis. A/1 Credit Risk Measurement Loans and advances to banks and customers In measuring credit risk for loans and advances to customers and banks the bank reflects three components: - Probability of default of the customer or a third party on their contractual obligations. - The current position and the likely expected future development from which the bank can conclude the balance exposed to default (exposure at default). - Loss given default. The daily activities of the bank`s business involve measurement of credit risk which reflects the expected loss (the expected loss model) required by Basel committee on banking supervision the operating measures may contradict with 12

21 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December A the impairment charge according to the Egyptian Accounting Standard no. ( ) which depends on losses realized at the reporting date (realized losses model) and not on expected losses (Note A/3) The Bank evaluates the probability of default for every customer using internal policies for the different customers' categories. These policies have been updated taking into consideration financial analysis and statistical analysis for each customer category in Addition to the personal judgment of the credit officer to reach the appropriate grading. The customers are classified into four ratings. The bank assesses the probability of default at the level of individual customer using internal rating tools tailored to the various customers` categories to rate the creditworthiness of the different categories of customers in details. These methods have been developed for internal rating and the statistical analysis are taken into account together with the personal reasoning of credit officers to reach the adequate rating. The bank's customers have been divided into four categories of creditworthiness rating. The structure of creditworthiness adopted by the bank as illustrated in the following table reflects how probable default of each category is which mainly means that credit positions move among mentioned categories pursuant to the change in the assessment of the extent of default probability. The assessment methods are reviewed and developed whenever required. Further the bank periodically assesses the performance of the creditworthiness rating methods and how they are able to predict default cases. The Bank s internal classification categories: Classification Classification indication Performing loans Regular watching Watch list Non-performing loans The position exposed to default depends on the amounts the bank expects to be outstanding amounts when the default takes place; for example as for a loan the position is the nominal value while for commitments the bank enlists all already withdrawn amounts in addition to these amounts expected to be withdrawn until the date of default if it happens. Loss given default or loss severity each represents the bank's expectations of the loss to the extent when claiming repayment of debt if the default occurs. Expressed by the percentage of loss to the debt; this certainly differs in accordance with category of the debtor the claim's seniority and availability guarantees or other credit mitigation. Debt instruments treasury and other bills. The Bank use external ratings such as Standard and Poor s rating Meres - Modes rating and Fitch rating to manage their credit risk. The same methods used for credit customers are used for debt instruments and treasury bills. They represent better credit method and a readily available source to meet the funding requirements bills. Risk Limit Control and Mitigation Policies The Bank manages and controls credit concentrations at the borrowers' level groups of borrower s level industries level and countries level. The Bank manages the credit risk it undertakes by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted in relation to single borrower or groups of borrowers and to the geographical and economic activities segments. Such risks are monitored on a regular basis and subject to an annual or more frequent review when considered necessary. The top management reviews on quarterly basis the sectorial and country credit concentration. Exposure to credit risk is also managed through regular analysis of the existing and potential borrowers' ability to meet their obligations and through changing the lending limits where appropriate. The following are some tools used by the bank to mitigate the credit risk: - Collaterals The bank use different methods to limit its credit risk. One of these methods is accepting collaterals against loans and advances granted by the bank. The bank implements guidelines for collaterals to be accepted. The major types of collateral against loans and advances are: Real estate mortgage Business assets mortgage such as machines and goods. Financial instruments mortgage such as debt and equity instruments. 13

22 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December Longer-term finance and lending to corporate are often secured while credit facilities granted to retail customers are generally unsecured. To reduce credit loss to its minimum level the bank is keen to get additional collateral from the concerned parties as soon as indicators of impairment in a loan or facility appear. Collateral held as a security against assets other than loans and facilities; determined by the nature of the instrument and debt instruments and treasury bills are normally unsecured with the exception of asset -backed securities and the similar instruments backed by a securities portfolio. - Derivatives The bank maintains conservative control limits over amounts and terms for the net value of opened derivative positions i.e. the difference between purchase and sale contracts. In all cases the amount subject to credit risk is limited to the current fair value of instruments in which the Bank could gain a benefit from it (i.e. assets that have positive fair value) which represent small value of the contract or the notional value. The Bank manages this credit risk which is considered part of the total customer limit with market changes risk all together. Generally no collateral obtained for credit risk related to these instruments except for marginal deposits required by the bank from other parties. Settlement risk arises when cash equity instruments or other financial papers is used in the settlement process or if there is expectation to receive cash equity instruments or other financial papers. Daily settlement limits are established for each counterparty to cover the aggregate settlement risk arising from the daily Bank transactions. - Master netting arrangements: The Bank further restricts its exposure to credit losses by entering into master netting arrangements with counterparties of significant volume of transactions. Generally no netting between assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. Relating to the master netting arrangements as aggregate settlements are made. However the credit risk related to contracts to the favor of the bank is reduced by a master netting arrangement as netting will be made with the counterparty to settle all transactions. The value of the credit risk faced by the Bank changes substantially within a short time as it is affected by each transaction occurs in the arrangement. A - Credit-related Commitments: The primary purpose of these commitments is to ensure that funds are available to customer when required. Guarantees and standby letters of credit are of the same credit risks as loans. Documentary and commercial letters of credit which are issued by the Bank on behalf of customer by which authorizing a third party to draw within a certain limit in accordance to specific terms and conditions and guaranteed by the goods under shipment are of lower risk than a direct loan. Credit related commitments represent the unused portion of credit limit of loans guarantees or letters of credit. With respect to credit risk related to credit related commitments the Bank is exposed to probable loss of amount equal to the total unused limit. However the probable amount of loss is less than the unused limit commitments as most commitments represent commitments to customers maintaining certain credit standards. The Bank monitors the maturity term of the credit commitments because long-term commitments are of high credit risk than short-term commitments. Impairment and provisioning policies: The internal rating systems described in Note (A-1) focus more on credit-quality at the inception of lending and investment activities. Otherwise impairment provisions recognized at the balance sheet date for financial reporting purposes are losses that have been incurred and based on objective evidence of impairment as will be mentioned below. Due to the different methodologies applied the amounts of incurred credit losses charged to the financial statements are usually lower than the expected amount determined from the expected loss models used to calculate impairment loss provision for CBE purposes. Note (A- The impairment provision appeared in the balance sheet at the end of the year is derived from the four internal rating grades. However the majority of the impairment provision comes from the last two ratings. The table below shows the percentage of in-balance sheet items relating to loans and advances and the related impairment provision for each rating: 14

23 Translation of financial statements Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December Bank s rating December June Loans and advances % Impairment provision % Loans and advances % Impairment provision % Performing loans.... Regular watch.... Special watch.... Non-performing loans... The Bank s internal rating assists management to determine whether objective evidence of impairment exists under EAS 26 based on the following criteria set out by the Bank: Financial difficulties face the borrower. Breach of loan conditions like non-payment. Initiation of bankruptcy or entering a liquidation or finance restructures. Deterioration of the borrower s competitive position. For economical or legal reasons the bank granted the borrower additional benefits that will not be done in normal circumstances. Deterioration in the value of collateral. Deterioration of customer credit status. The Bank policies require review of all financial assets (that exceed specific relative importance) at least once a year or more when required the impairment loss is determined on individual basis by determining case by case actual losses. These policies applied on all accounts have specific relative importance on individual basis. Valuation usually includes the existing collateral the related enforcements on these collaterals and the expected collections from those accounts. Impairment loss provision is formed based on group of similar assets using the historical experience available personal judgment and statistical methods. A Pattern of measure banking general risk In addition to the four categories of credit rating indicated in note (A/1) the management makes more detailed groups in accordance with the CBE requirements Assets exposed to credit risk in these categories are classified according to detailed conditions and terms depending on information related to the customer its activities and financial position and payment schedules. The Bank calculates the provisions required for impairment of assets exposed to credit risk including commitments relating to credit on the basis of rates determined by CBE. In case the provision required for impairment losses as per CBE regulations exceeds the provision required for financial statements preparation purposes according to the Egyptian Accounting Standards this increase shall be debited from the retained earnings to and credited to the "general Banking risk reserve" under the equity caption. This reserve is regularly adjusted with this increase and decrease to equal the amount of increase and decrease in the two provisions. This reserve is not distributable. The following are categories of corporate worthiness according to internal ratings compared with CBE ratings and rates of provision needed for assets impairment related to credit risk: CBE Rating Category Provision % Low risk Average risk Satisfactory risk Reasonable risk Acceptable risk Marginally acceptably risk Watch list Substandard Doubtful Bad debt 15 Internal rating Internal categorization Performing loans Performing loans Performing loans Performing loans Performing loans Regular watching Special watch Non-performing loans Non-performing loans Non-performing loans

B- Market risks The Bank is exposed to market risks embodied in the fair value fluctuations or the future cash flows stemming from changes in market rates. Market risks arise from the open positions of interest rate currency rates and the equity instruments as each of them is liable to the market's general and specific movements as well as to changes in the sensitivity level of market rates or prices such as interest exchange rates and equity instrument rates. The Bank separates its exposure to market risk either for trading or non-trading portfolios. The management of market risks stemming from trading or non-trading activities is centralized in the Bank's Market Risks Department and it is monitored by two separate teams. Regular reports on market risks are submitted to the Board of Directors and the heads of business unit. The trading portfolios include the positions resulting from the Bank's direct dealing with customers or with the market. The non-trading portfolios arise mainly from management of return rate of assets and liabilities related to retail transactions. These portfolios include the foreign exchange risks equity instruments resulted from the held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale investments. 21

30 Translation of financial statement Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December B/1 Market risk measurement techniques As part of market risk management the Bank has several hedging strategies and enters into interest rate swaps to balance the risks inherent in debt instruments and long term loans with fixed rates if the fair value option is applied. The following are the most important measurement methods applied to control the market risks. - Value at Risk The Bank adopts "Value at Risk" method for trading and non-trading portfolios in order to estimate the market risks for the outstanding positions and the maximum limit of expected loss based on a number of assumptions for the various changes in the market conditions. The Board of Directors sets limits for the value at risk which the Bank can tolerate for trading and non-trading separately. Such limits are daily monitored by the Bank's Market Risks Department. Value at risk is a statistical prospect for the expected loss of the present portfolio due to the market's adverse circumstances. It is an expression of the maximum value the Bank may lose using a defined confidence coefficient ( %). Consequently a statistical probability of ( %) indicates that the actual loss may be greater than the expected value at risk. The value at risk model assumes a defined retention period (one day) before closing the open positions. The model also assumes that the market's move will follow during the retention period the same pattern of movement that occurred during the previous day. The Bank estimates the previous movement on the basis of the information for the past five years. The Bank applies such historical changes in the rates prices and indicators to the current positions directly a method known as the historical simulation. Actual outputs should also be monitored on a regular basis to measure the correctness of assumptions and the factors used to calculate the value at risk. Usage of this method does not prevent the losses over these limits in case of larger movement within the market. Since value at risk is considered a basic component of the Bank's system in control of market risk the Board of Directors' sets the limits of the value at risk for each of trading and non-trading transactions to be divided on the units of activity. The actual values at risk are compared with the limits set by the Bank and daily checked by the Bank's Market Risk Department. The quality of the value at risk model is persistently monitored through back testing to confirm the results of the value at risk of the trading portfolio. Results of these tests are reported to senior management and Board of Directors. - Stress Testing Stress tests provide an indication of the potential size of losses that could arise under extreme market condition. Stress testing is designed to match business using standard analyses for specific scenarios. Stress testing administered by the Bank's Market Risk Department includes a risk factor stress test assumption. Groups of sharp movements were applied to each risk type and the emerging market stress is tested. Emerging markets are subject to sharp movements and special stress tests including potential events that influence specific positions or areas such as the results of liberating a currency in one area. The senior management and Board of Directors review the results of stress testing. 22

Available for sale assets are evaluated at fair value except for the equity instruments which the bank has been unable to evaluate their fair value to a reliable extent. The fair value of financial assets held to maturity is determined according to the market rates or prices obtained from brokers. If such data were not available then the fair value is estimated by applying financial markets' rates of negotiable securities with similar credit features maturity dates as well as similar rates. Due to other banks and customers The estimated fair value for deposits with unfixed maturity date which include as well non- interest bearing deposits represents the cash that is to be paid on demand. Fair value of fixed interest rate deposits and non-negotiable loans in an active market are determined according to the discounted cash flows by applying interest rates of new debts with similar maturity dates.

For investment funds the evaluation is based on realizable value (fair value) compared to cost in which the lower of them is determined.

These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors including the expectations of future events that are considered reasonable in accordance with the available information and surrounding conditions. A- Impairment loss on Loans & advances The bank reviews Loans & advances portfolio quarterly at least to assess impairment. The bank applies personal judgment when determining the necessity of recording the impairment charges to the income statement so as to know if there is any reliable data which refer to the existence of a measurable decline in the expected future cash flows of the loans portfolio even before being acquainted with the decline at the level of each loan in the portfolio. These evidences may include data which indicate the occurrence of a negative change in the ability of a portfolio of borrowers to repay the bank or local or economic circumstances related to default in the bank's assets. On scheduling future cash flows the management uses estimates based on historical experience of losses of assets with credit risk characteristics in the presence of objective evidence of impairment similar to those included in the portfolio. The method and assumptions used for estimating both the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed on a regular basis to minimize any differences between estimated and actual losses based on expertise. B- Impairment of available for sale equity instruments The Bank determines the impairment of the shareholders equity instruments available for sale when there is a significant or continuous decline in fair value below their cost. A significant or continuous decline needs a personal judgment. To make this judgment the Bank assesses besides other factors the common share price volatility. In addition impairment exists when there is objective evidence that the invested company has a financial deterioration in its cash flows from operating and financing activities industry or sector performance or technological advances. If the full decline in the fair value below the cost is considered as a significant or permanent decline then the bank will face additional loss which represent the transfer of negative fair value reserve to income statement. 31

39 Translation of financial statement Notes to Separate financial statements for the financial period ended December C- Fair value of derivatives The fair values of derivative financial instruments not quoted in active markets are determined using valuation methods. When these methods (models) are used to determine the fair values they are tested and reviewed periodically by qualified personnel who are independent of whom prepared them. All models have been approved before being used and after being tested to ensure that their results reflect actual data and prices that can be compared to the market to the extent that is deemed practical. Only reliable data are used in these models; however areas such as credit risks related to the bank and counterparties volatility or correlations require management to use estimates. Changes in assumptions surrounding these factors may affect the fair value of the financial instrument disclosed at the date of the balance sheet. D- Held to maturity financial investments The Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity are classified as financial investments held to maturity. This classification requires personal judgment; therefore the Bank evaluates the intention and ability to hold such investments to maturity. If the Bank fails to hold such investments till maturity except for certain circumstances such as selling an insignificant amount of financial investments held to maturity which are close to maturity date such investments should be reclassified as available for sale. Accordingly those investments will be measured at fair value instead of the amortized cost; in addition the classification of any investments under this item will be suspended for two years. E- Income taxes The Bank is subject to the income taxes of several tax departments for our external branches. This requires the usage of significant estimates to determine the total provision of the income taxes. It is difficult to accurately assess the final taxes for certain operations and accounts. The Bank records the commitments of the expected results of tax examination according to estimates of the probability of the emergence of additional taxes. When there is a variance between the final result of taxes and the amounts previously recorded then these variances will affect the income tax and deferred tax provision for the year in which the variance has been identified Segmental analysis: A) Business segment analysis Business segment includes operational processes assets used in providing banking services and management of their surrounding risks and return related to this business that are different from those of other business segments.
