BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2.1. Basis of preparation and presentation of the financial statements (a) Statement of compliance The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the following laws and regulations: Law on Accounting ( Official Gazette of the RS, no. 62/2013), Insurance law ( Official Gazette of the RS, no. 55/2004, 70/2004, 61/2005, 85/2005, 101/2007, 63/2009, 107/2009, 99/2011, 119/2012 and 116/2013), Law on Companies ("Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia ", no. 36/2011 and 99/2011), Corporate profit tax law ( Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia, no. 25/2001, 80/2002, 43/2003, 84/2004, 18/2010, 101/2011, 119/2012, 47/2013 and 108/2013), Law on the Capital Market ("Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia " no. 31/2011), Regulation on the Chart of Accounts and Contents of Accounts in the Chart of Account of Insurance Companies (Official Gazette of the RS, no. 15/07, 3/09 and 35/2010) and relevant bylaws based on mentioned laws and general documents of the Company. 2

10 In accordance with the Law on Accounting, legal entities and entrepreneurs in Republic of Serbia prepares and presents financial statements in accordance with the law, professional and internal regulations, where under the professional regulations are considered applicable Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements ( Framework ), International Accounting Standards ( IAS ), International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ) and interpretations that are part of the standard, in regard to text of IAS and IFRS which has been implemented, does not include grounds for concluding, illustrating examples, guidelines, comments, opposing views, elaborated examples and other supplementary material. Changes to existing standards and translation of new IFRS, as well as interpretations which are an integral part of the standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ( IASB ) and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ( IFRIC ) until 1 January 2009, were formally adopted following the decision of the Minister of Finance no / and published in the Official Gazette of RS no. 77/2010. Amended or issued IFRIC and interpretations of standards, after this date, have not been translated and published, and therefore have not been applied in preparing for these financial statements. The accompanying financial statements are prepared in a form prescribed by Rules on the content and form of financial statements of the insurance companies ( Official Gazette of RS no. 3/2009, 7/2009 and 5/2010), which prescribes the application of a set of financial statements which form and content are aligned with those specified in the revised IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, whose application is mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January Management estimates the impact of changes in the IAS, the new IFRS and interpretations on the financial statements, and although many of these changes are not applicable to the Company, Company management does not express an explicit and unreserved statement of compliance of these financial statements with IAS and IFRS applicable for periods shown in the accompanying financial statements. Accordingly, and given the potentially significant financial effects of the deviation of Serbia accounting regulations and IFRS and IAS to the reality and objectivity of the financial statements, enclosed financial statements cannot be treated as financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and IAS. (b) Basis of measurement Financial statements are prepared based on the historical cost principle, except for the following items: Financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are measured at fair value; Available-for-sale financial instruments, which are measured at fair value; and Derivatives, which are measured at fair value. (c) Going concern concept The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis which presupposes that the Company will continue as a going concern for an indefinite period of time into the foreseeable. (d) Functional and reporting currency The Company s financial statements are disclosed in thousands of dinars (RSD). The dinar is the functional currency and the currency used for financial reporting purposes in the Republic of Serbia. 3

11 (e) Use of estimates and judgements Presentation of financial statements requires of Company management to use best estimates and reasonable assumptions, which have effect on presented values of assets and liabilities and disclosure of potential receivables and liabilities as at balance sheet date, and income and expenses items during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are based on previous experience, as well as different information available as at balance sheet date, and that seem realistic and reasonable in the given circumstances. In continuing to use best estimates and reasonable assumptions available as at balance sheet date the Company seeks to determine their effects on reported values of assets and liabilities, which cannot be confirmed in another, more precise way. Actual results may differ from estimated values. Estimates, as well as assumptions on which the estimates are based, are the result of regular reviews. If through review we find that a change occurred in the estimated value of assets and liabilities, related effects are recognized in the financial statements in the period when the change in estimate occurred, if the change in estimate affects only that financial period, or in the period when changes in the evaluation occurred and subsequent financial periods, if the change in estimate affects the current and subsequent financial periods. Key accounting estimates and judgements Through continual use of best estimates and reasonable assumptions available as at balance sheet date, the Company seeks to establish their effect on reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses, as well as their effect on future events. Actual results may differ from these estimates. When adjustments become necessary, they are disclosed to the income statement in the period when they came to attention. The most significant estimates relate to assessment of financial assets held for sale impairment, actuarial categories and fair value estimation. /i / Impairment of financial assets In accordance with International Accounting Standard 39, if decrease in value of an asset available for sale is deemed significant and long-term, such asset should be impaired by transferring or cancelling revaluation reserves and charging the corresponding amount to the income statement. Additional criteria used in estimating fair value of such assets include: the financial position of the investee, stock exchange volume for investment, liquidity of each individual security, etc. /ii/ Actuarial categories Rates for property insurance are determined on the basis of frequency of occurrence of insured risks. In order for the rate be determined more precisely there is need for monitoring risks which are being insured for many years. This represents the largest source of uncertainty given the lack of adequate statistics for precisely determining tariffs. Property insurance is usually short-term so that there is certain protection that if the rate is incorrectly estimated, it can be immediately corrected. Besides that, additional protection is also provided by reinsurance because risk is accepted by the reinsurer on the basis of rates at which reinsurance is agreed. 4

12 /iii/ Fair value The determination of fair value for financial assets and liabilities for which there is no readily available market price requires the use of valuation techniques. For financial instruments that trade infrequently and have little price transparency, fair value is less objective, and requires varying degrees of judgment depending on liquidity, concentration, uncertainty of market factors, pricing assumptions and other risks affecting the specific instrument. (f) Reconciliation of receivables and payables In compliance with statutory regulations, the Company reconciled its receivables and payables with its creditors and debtors. Of the total number of requests for reconciliation sent, there were no unreconciled balances. (g) Comparative data The Company presented comparative data for the income statement for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2012, the balance sheet, statement of changes in equity and the cash flow statement for the year ended 31 December SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company is consistent in its application of its accounting policies in all periods presented in the financial statements. Basic accounting policies applied in the preparation of the 2013 financial statements are presented below Intangible assets, property, plant and equipment /i/ Recognition and measurement Intangible assets, property, plant and equipment are reported at cost reduced for accumulated depreciation. Property, plant and equipment consist of equipment, fixed assets under construction, leasehold improvements and advances for fixed assets, while intangible assets comprise licenses, computer software, advances for intangible assets and intangible assets under construction. Initial recognition of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment is at cost which comprises the amount invoiced by supplier and all costs associated with bringing the asset into use. Subsequent measurement after initial recognition is at cost reduced for accumulated depreciation and any impairment. /ii/ Subsequent costs Costs of replacement of a part of a fixed asset are recognised at carrying amount, if there is a likelihood that future economic benefits will flow to the Company and if the cost of such part can be measured reliably. Spare parts and servicing equipment are recorded in the income statement when used. 5

13 /iii/ Depreciation In establishing the base for depreciation of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, the cost of an asset is reduced for residual value of the asset. Depreciation of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment is provided on a straight line basis. Depreciation of an asset commences in the month subsequent to the month when it is put into use. Depreciation/ Useful life (years) Amortization rate (%) Intangible assets Computers Transport equipment Machinery and office furniture Once a year and at the latest by balance sheet date the Company reviews remaining useful lives of assets and makes adjustments to initially applied depreciation rates in order to better reflect remaining useful lives of assets Financial investments /i/ Classification The Company classifies its financial assets into the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, loans and receivables, financial assets available for sale and financial assets held to maturity. Classification depends on the purpose for which assets were acquired. Management classifies its financial assets at the moment of initial recognition. In view of the statutory financial statement forms, the Company reported all of its financial investments, irrespective of their classification, in the balance sheet as short-term and long-term financial investments. /ii/ Recognition Purchase or sale of a financial asset or liability is accounted for appropriately as at transaction date. /iii/ Measurement Financial instruments are initially recognised at market value which includes transaction costs for all financial assets or liabilities, except those that are measured at fair value through profit and loss. Initial recognition of financial assets at fair value through profit and loss is at fair value, with related transaction costs charged to operating expenses in the income statement. After initial recognition financial assets available for sale and financial assets at fair value though profit and loss are measured at fair value. Loans and receivables, as well as financial assets held to maturity, are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. After initial recognition, financial liabilities are disclosed at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss. 6

14 /iv/ Derecognition The Company derecognises financial assets when the right to cash inflows from an asset expires or when such right is transferred to another party. All rights related to a transferred financial asset, whether created or retained by the Company, are recognised as a separate asset or liability. The Company derecognises liabilities when a liability is settled, cancelled or transferred to another party. /v/ Measurement at amortised cost Amortised cost of a financial asset or liability is the value at which the asset or liability is initially recognised, reduced for payment of principal, and increased or decreased for accumulated amortised cost using the effective interest rate method applied to the difference between initial value and nominal value as at date of maturity, reduced for any impairment. /vi/ Measurement at fair value Fair value of financial instruments is the value at which an asset can be exchanged, or liability settled, through an arm s length transaction between informed parties. Fair value is determined using available market information as at reporting date and other valuation methods used by the Company. Fair value of particular financial instruments reported at nominal value is approximately equal to their net book value. Such instruments comprise cash, as well as receivables and liabilities without contractual dates of maturity and without contractual fixed interest rate. Other receivables and liabilities are reduced to their present value by discounting future cash flows, using current interest rates. Management holds that due to the nature of the Company s business and its general policies, there are no significant differences between the net book value and fair value of financial assets and liabilities. /vii/ Impairment Financial assets are tested for impairment as at balance sheet date to assess whether there is objective evidence of impairment. If there is evidence of impairment, the recoverable value of the asset is assessed. For adequate and efficient credit risk management the Company defined separate policies and procedures in its internal regulations for identifying and managing bad assets. Company management estimates the collectability of receivables and provisions for individual estimates of the risk of receivables. Risk receivables are deemed to be all receivables that are overdue. The Company estimates the collectible amount of receivables and investments, keeping in mind the regularity of settlement, the financial position of the debtor and quality of collateral, as well as the contractual cash flow and historical information on losses. The Company makes provision for the estimated amount of impairment and charges it to period expenses in the period when the impairment occurred. If in subsequent periods the Company determines that circumstances have changed and that there is no longer any impairment, the previously made provision is reversed and credited to income. Reversal of a provision cannot result in a higher carrying amount of the asset than the value such asset would have had had no provision been made previously. 7

15 /viii/ Financial assets held to maturity Financial assets held to maturity are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determined payment schedules and fixed maturities, which the Company has the intention and ability to hold to maturity. Such financial assets comprise old foreign currency savings bonds issued by the Republic of Serbia, corporate bonds and short-term and long-term deposits. In the event the Company decides to sell a significant portion of its financial assets held to maturity, the entire category will be reclassified as available for sale. Financial assets held to maturity are classified as long-term financial assets, except if maturities fall within less than 12 months as of balance sheet date, when they are classified as short-term assets. Financial assets held to maturity are initially recognised at cost, and as at balance sheet date they are reported at amortised cost which is the present value of future cash flows discounted using the effective interest rate specific to the instrument. As at 31 December 2013 the Company owns coupon bonds issued by RS and corporate bonds that are classified as securities held to maturity. /ix/ Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are financial assets held for trading. A financial asset is classified into this category if it is acquired principally for sale within the short term. Derivatives are also classified as assets held for trading, unless they are used for hedging risks. Assets in this category are classified as short-term financial investments. Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are initially recognised at cost and as at balance sheet date are reported at market value. Changes in market value are reported in the Company s income statement as income or expense from adjustment in value of assets. The Company reports gains or losses on the sale of such securities. As at 31 December, 2013 the Company did not have any assets within this category. /x/ Financial assets available for sale and equity investments Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale and are not classified as loans and receivables, financial assets held to maturity or financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. Available-for-sale financial assets are investments for which there is an intention to hold them for an indefinite period of time and that can be sold for liquidity purposes or due to fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates or market prices. If there is no active market for available-for-sale financial assets, if they have fixed maturities, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially measured at cost and as at balance sheet date at market value, if available. Changes in market value are reported within equity, credited or debited against revaluation reserves, up to the date when securities are sold when revaluation reserves are transferred to income. Equity investments are characterised by the intention of holding them for an indefinite period of time. Such investments can be sold in case of cash shortage or in the event of change in market price. Equity investments for which there is no active market are measured at cost. 8

16 There was no trade on the secondary market or the volume of trade was at the level which did not indicate significant change in market value of coupon bonds of the Republic of Serbia held by the Company. If there is no active market for available-for-sale financial assets, and if they have fixed maturities, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. The Company s available for sale financial assets include old foreign currency savings bonds issued by the Serbian Government classified as available for sale, coupon bonds of the Republic of Serbia and investment units of the Raiffeisen Cash Investment Fund Receivables Receivables comprise reinsurance and retrocession premium receivables, receivables from retrocessioner for share in claim settlement, receivables from reinsurance and retrocession commissions, receivables from recourse rights, receivables for advances given, receivables for interest on deposits that the Company holds in its portfolio, as well as other receivables. If there is likelihood that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due as per terms of contract, management estimates the amount of provision for reducing a receivable to its actual value. Provisions for short-term trade receivables are made in accordance with the National Bank of Serbia s Decision on the Method for Evaluation of the Balance Sheet and Off Balance Sheet Positions of Insurance Company and on the rules adopted by the Company based on this Decision. All receivables that are overdue by more than 90 days are provisioned in full. All doubtful and impaired receivables are also provisioned in full. In accordance with the Decision of the National Bank of Serbia on the method for evaluation of the balance sheet and off balance sheet positions of an Insurance company, the Company also performs group impairment where all related parties whose level or type of association is such that they represent a single risk are considered as a single debtor Unearned premium Unearned premium relates to premium that belongs to a subsequent reporting period. In accordance with business policy, calculation of unearned premium is based on the type and group of reinsurance. Unearned premium is calculated based on the gross premium principle the base for calculation is the invoiced premium. Unearned premium calculation is performed as per reinsurance and retrocession business at home and abroad, applied to total premium on a pro rata temporis basis, except for reinsurance contracts where coverage changes within the reinsurance period (reinsurance of properties under construction, liability reinsurance of construction contractor, liability reinsurance of structures under installation, liability reinsurance of installation work contractor), which ensures that in the period for which operating result is calculated only earned and invoiced premium will be recorded as income for that period. 9

17 In the case of reinsurance contracts when the coverage changes within the reinsurance period (reinsurance of properties under construction, liability reinsurance of construction contractor, liability reinsurance of structures under installation, liability reinsurance of installation work contractor) calculation of unearned premiums is done for reinsurance and retrocession in domestic and in foreign countries in relation to the change of coverage within the insurance period, in accordance with the Decision on Specific Criteria and the Manner of Calculating Unearned Premiums issued by the National Bank of Serbia Provisions for outstanding claims The Company calculates and forms from net premium funds a provision for incurred but unsettled liabilities (amount of provision for outstanding claims) related to reinsurance contracts, in accordance with the Rules for Calculating Part of Net Premium for Payment of Incurred But Unsettled Liabilities Provisions for Outstanding Claims. Provisions for outstanding claims are calculated separately by type of reinsurance for reported but not settled and for incurred but not reported claims. /i/ Reported but not settled claims Provisions for outstanding claims are formed by types of insurance and reported claims by cedants. Claims are provisioned in the amount sufficient for payment of the reinsurance share in the payment to the insurer, cedant and insured on claim settlement date. /ii/ Incurred but not reported claims The Company makes provisions for incurred but not reported claims in accordance with the Rules on Calculating Provisions for Outstanding Claims and Coefficients for Provisioning Such Claims which is harmonised with the National Bank of Serbia s Decision issued on 18 September Based on these Rules, provisions for incurred but not reported claims are made by applying the annual coefficient to the amount of provisions for outstanding claims for the year for which the financial statements are prepared. The coefficient is calculated by dividing the amount of occurred claims in the previous year and reported in the year for which the coefficient is calculated, with the total amount of reported (settled and provisioned) claims in that year. The coefficient is calculated separately for each type of insurance annually Risk equalisation reserves Risk equalisation reserves are calculated in compliance with the Decision on Detailed Criteria and The Manner of Calculation of Risk Equalisation Reserves issued by the NBS. Reserves are formed on the basis of standard variances in claims ratios for the current reporting period with respect to the average claims rations for each type of non-life insurance that the Company deals with in the period under consideration, in compliance with effective regulations for institutions providing insurance and reinsurance. The base for calculating reserves for risk equalisation comprises retained net premium realised in the current reporting period (quarterly and annual) and standard variances. The upper limit for forming risk equalisation reserves is calculated by multiplying the standard variance from a single to a triple variance (depending on the type of insurance) and corresponding retained net premium realised in the current year. 10
