The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the measurement at fair value of trading securities, buildings and derivative financial instruments. The IFRS financial statements differ from those financial statements issued for statutory purposes in Serbia in respect that they reflect certain adjustments, not recorded in the Group s books, which are appropriate for presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with IFRS.

9 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 4.1. Income and expenses recognition Interest income and expenses and other operating income and expenses are recognized on an accrual basis. Interest income and expenses are recognized for all interest bearing financial instruments. The Bank suspends the interest calculation on all loans that are presented at court or in case of financial difficulty of a borrower. Fees receivable and payable are deferred over the duration of the transaction on which they have incurred. Fees and commissions consist mainly of fees for international payments, guarantees given and other Bank services. Loan origination fees are deferred and amortized to interest earned on loans and advances over the life of the loan using the effective interest rate method Foreign currency translation Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets, liabilities and the share capital denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. All differences are taken to the income statement Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise balances with maturities of less than 90 days from the date of acquisition including: cash and balances with National Bank of Serbia, treasury bills and other eligible bills and amounts due from other banks. For the purpose of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined above, overnight placements with National Bank of Seria and Due from other banks with maturities of less than 90 days (Note 28) Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets All regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the settlement date, i.e. the date the asset is delivered to the counterparty. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame generally established by regulation or convention in the market place. 7

10 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 4.5. Loans and impairment All loans and advances are recognized when cash is advanced to borrowers. Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of any amounts written off and specific provisions for loan impairment. Impairment is established if there is objective evidence that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due on a loan or other advance according to the original contractual term. Impairment is measured as a difference between the carrying amount and the estimated recoverable amount, being the present value of expected future cash flows. Credit losses are evaluated at a individual level. Individual credit exposures are evaluated based upon the borrower s character, overall financial condition, resources and repayment records; the prospects for support from any creditworthy guarantors and where applicable the realizable value of any collateral. A write off is made when all or part of a claim is deemed uncollectible. Write offs are charged against previously established provisions for credit losses or directly to bad debt expense in the income statement and reduce the principal amount of a claim. Recoveries in part or in full of amounts previously written off are credited to the income statement Non-trading securities Non-trading securities are classified as held to maturity and available for sale. All investments are initially recognized at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given including acquisition costs. Premiums and discounts on non-trading investments are amortized using the effective interest rate method and recognized in interest income. Held-to-maturity Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity, such as treasury bills, debt securities, discounted bills and foreign currency bonds arising on foreign currency public savings, are subsequently measured at amortized cost less any provision for impairment. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition, over the period to maturity. The amount of the impairment loss for investments held to maturity is calculated as the difference between the investments carrying amount and the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the investment s original effective interest rate. 8

11 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 4.6. Non-trading securities (continued) Available-for-sale Investment securities intended to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices are classified as available-for-sale. After initial measurement, available-for-sale investments are measured at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses from charges in fair value are recognised directly in equity in the Revaluation reserve. If fair value cannot be measured reliably availablefor-sale investments are presented in the balance sheet at cost. Interest earned whilst holding investment securities is recognized in interest income. Dividends are recognized when shareholders right to receive payment is established Trading securities All investments are initially recognized at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given. After initial recognition, investments which are classified as held for trading are measured at fair value. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognized in income Investment in associates The Bank s investments in its associates are consolidated under equity method Property, equipment and intangible assets Buildings are measured at fair value less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Valuations are carried out periodically by independent qualified valuers on the basis at current market values. Management of the Bank annually considers if there are indications of significant changes in value of property. Construction land beneath the buildings of the Bank is owned by the state. The fees for usage of the construction land is payable on the monthly basis to the state. Property and equipment are initially recorded at the original purchase cost and until year 2003 they were subsequently restated from the date of the purchase of each item to the balance sheet date, using the general price index. The depreciation and amortization charge for the period is calculated on the basis of the restated amounts of property and equipment. Opening accumulated depreciation and amortization were also restated. Intangible assets comprise of computer software. 9

12 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) 4.9. Property, equipment and intangible assets (continued) Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of all assets as follows: Computer software Buildings Computers and IT equipment Furniture and other equipment 5 years 77 years 5 years 4 to 15 years Assets under construction are not depreciated. Depreciation on these assets will begin when the related assets are placed in service. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the income statement when incurred Assets held for resale Foreclosed property acquired in debt satisfaction and assets obtained from joint ventures is defined as Property held for resale and disclosed in Other assets. Such property is carried at their fair value Finance lease - Bank as a lessee Finance leases, which transfer to the Bank substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalized at the inception of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income. Capitalized leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term Ordinary shares Ordinary shares are initially recorded at the original nominal value and subsequently restated using the general price index from the date of issuance to the balance sheet date for all the years for which the Serbian economy met the definition of a hyperinflationary economy under IAS 29. Dividends on ordinary shares are recognized as a liability when they are formally declared. 10

13 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Preference shares Preference shares which are not redeemable but convertible at the option of the Bank, are classified as equity. Preference shares are initially recorded at the original nominal value and till year 2003 were subsequently restated using the general price index from the date of the issuance to the balance sheet date Administrated Business Operations in the Name and on Behalf of Third Parties Assets and income arising from administrated business operations, where the Bank acts in a fiduciary capacity such as nominee, trustee or agent, are excluded from the financial statements. The Bank does not charge fee for these business operations carried out in the name and on behalf of third parties (Note 31) Income Taxes Current tax Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the income statement. Deferred tax Deferred income tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except: where a deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 11

14 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Income Taxes (continued) Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except: where a deferred income tax asset relating to a deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of and asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the income statement. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority Pensions and other post-employment benefits Short-term employee benefits The Bank makes contributions to the Government s health, retirement benefit and unemployment schemes at the statutory rates in force during the year, based on gross salary payments. The cost of social security payments is charged to the statement of income in the same period as the related salary cost. There is no additional liability for these plans. 12

15 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Pensions and other post-employment benefits (continued) Post employment and other long-term employee benefits In accordance with the Labor Law, there is mandatory one-off retirement compensation equal to 3 gross monthly salaries, based on the country average salary earned in the month prior to retirement. The retirement compensation is payable by the last employer of retiree. The Bank has internally performed valuation to determine the present value of this liability resulting with recognition of the provision for this liability has been made in the accompanying financial statements. Any gains and losses arising from the changes in the assessed amounts are taken to income statement Derivatives The only derivatives used by the Bank are foreign currency options and interest rate options used to hedge its risks associated with interest rate and foreign currency fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are stated at fair value. These derivatives that do not qualify for special hedge accounting, therefore any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are taken directly to net profit or loss for the period Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective Effect on new standards and interpretations: The IASB such as the Interpretations Committee have issued a range of new accounting standards and interpretations. The new I.F.R.S. and the I.F.R.I.C. concern accounting periods beginning after 1st January The management s estimation in relation with the effect of the new standards and interpretations is as follows: IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, and a complementary amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements Capital Disclosures (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2007). IFRS 7 introduces new disclosures to improve the information about financial instruments. It requires the disclosure of qualitative and quantitative information about exposure to risks arising from financial instruments, including specified minimum disclosures about credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk, including sensitivity analysis to market risk. It replaces IAS 30, Disclosures in the Financial Statements of Banks and Similar Financial Institutions, and disclosure requirements in IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation. It is applicable to all entities that report under IFRS. The amendment to IAS 1 introduces disclosures about the level of an entity s capital and how it manages capital. The Bank assessed the impact of IFRS 7 and the amendment to IAS 1 and concluded that the main additional disclosures will be the sensitivity analysis to market risk and the capital. 13

16 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective (continued) IFRS 8, Operating Segments (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2009). IFRS 8 replaces IAS 14 Segment Reporting and adopts a management approach to segment reporting. The information reported would be that which management uses internally for evaluating the performance of operating segments and allocating resources to those segments. This information may be different from that reported in the balance sheet and income statement and entities will need to provide explanations and reconciliations of the differences. The Bank is a nonlisted entity therefore IFRS 8 is not mandatory. IFRIC 7, Applying the Restatement Approach under IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 March 2006). IFRIC 7 requires entities to apply IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyper-inflationary Economies in the reporting period in which an entity first identifies the existence of hyperinflation in the economy of its functional currency as if the economy had always been hyperinflationary. IFRIC 7 is not relevant to the Bank s operations. IFRIC 8, Scope of IFRS 2 (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 May 2006). IFRIC 8 clarifies that IFRS 2 Share-based payment will apply to any arrangement when equity instruments are granted or liabilities (based on the value of an entity s equity instrument) are incurred by an entity, when the identifiable consideration appears to be less that the fair value of the instruments given. IFRIC 8 is not relevant to the Bank s operations. IFRIC 9, Reassessment of Embedded Derivatives (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 June 2006). IFRIC 9 requires an entity to assess whether a contract contains an embedded derivative at the date an entity first becomes a party to the contract and prohibits reassessment unless there is a change to the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows. IFRIC 9 is not relevant to the Bank s operations. IFRIC 10, Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 November 2006). This Interpretation may impact the financial statements should any impairment losses be recognised in the interim financial statements in relation to available for sale investments as these may not be reversed in later interim periods or when preparing the annual financial statements. IFRIC 11, IFRS 2-Group and Treasury Share Transactions (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 March 2007). This Interpretation requires arrangements whereby an employee is granted rights to an entity s equity instruments to be accounted for as an equity-settled scheme by an entity even if the entity chooses or is required to buy those equity instruments from another party, or the shareholders of the entity provide the equity instruments needed. The Interpretation also extends to the way in which subsidiaries, in their separate financial statements, account for schemes when their employees receive rights to equity instruments of the parent. IFRIC 11 is not relevant to the Bank s operations. 14

17 4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective (continued) IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements (effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2008). The interpretation outlines an approach to account for contractual arrangements arising from entities providing public services. It provides for the operator should not account for the infrastructure as property, plant and equipment, but recognize a financial asset and / or an intangible asset. IFRIC 12 is not relevant to the Bank s operations Consolidated Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kulska Bank a.d.

Novi Sad wholly owned by the Bank KB NS Investments d.o.o. Novi Sad wholly owned by the Bank Goodwill The goodwill resulted from the acquisition of the remaining 50% of shares of KB Leasing in The goodwill is initially measured at its cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Bank s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. The goodwill is to be tested impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of Kulska banka Group and its subsidiaries as at 31 December each year.
