These consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of Russian Roubles ("RR thousands"), unless otherwise stated. 2 Operating Environment of the Group Russian Federation. The Russian Federation displays certain characteristics of an emerging market. It is also quite sensitive to fluctuations of oil and gas prices. Tax, currency and customs legislation is subject to varying interpretations and contributes to the challenges faced by banks operating in the Russian Federation (Note 30). The international sovereign debt crisis, stock market volatility and other risks could have a negative effect on the Russian financial and corporate sectors. Management determined loan impairment provisions by considering the economic situation and outlook at the end of the reporting period, and applied the incurred loss model required by the applicable accounting standards. These standards require recognition of impairment losses that arose from past events and prohibit recognition of impairment losses that could arise from future events, no matter how likely those future events are. Refer to Note 4. The future economic development of the Russian Federation is dependent upon external factors and internal measures undertaken by the government to sustain growth, and to change the tax, legal and regulatory environment. Management believes it is taking all necessary measures to support the sustainability and development of the Group s business in the current business and economic environment. 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of preparation. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ) under the historical cost convention, as modified by the initial recognition of financial instruments based on fair value and by the revaluation of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss. The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated. Consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are those companies and other entities (including special purpose entities) in which the Group, directly or indirectly, has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights, or otherwise has power to govern the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or presently convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group (acquisition date) and are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries other than those acquired from parties under common control. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interest. The Group measures non-controlling interest that represents present ownership interest and entitles the holder to a proportionate share of net assets in the event of liquidation on a transaction by transaction basis, either at: (a) fair value, or (b) the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of net assets of the acquiree. Non-controlling interests that are not present ownership interests are measured at fair value. 7

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Goodwill is measured by deducting the net assets of the acquiree from the aggregate of the consideration transferred for the acquiree, the amount of non-controlling interest in the acquiree and fair value of an interest in the acquiree held immediately before the acquisition date. Any negative amount ( negative goodwill ) is recognised in profit or loss, after management reassesses whether it identified all the assets acquired and all liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed, and reviews appropriateness of their measurement. The consideration transferred for the acquiree is measured at the fair value of the assets given up, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed, including fair value of assets or liabilities from contingent consideration arrangements, but excludes acquisition related costs such as advisory, legal, valuation and similar professional services. Transaction costs incurred for issuing equity instruments are deducted from equity; transaction costs incurred for issuing debt are deducted from its carrying amount and all other transaction costs associated with the acquisition are expensed. Non-controlling interest is that part of the net results and of the equity of a subsidiary attributable to interests which are not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Bank. Non-controlling interest forms a separate component of the Group s equity. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the cost cannot be recovered. The Bank and all of its subsidiaries use uniform accounting policies consistent with the Group s policies. Non-controlling interest is that part of the net results and of the equity of a subsidiary attributable to interests which are not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Bank. Non-controlling interest forms a separate component of the Group s equity. Purchases and sales of non-controlling interests. The Group applies the economic entity model to account for transactions with owners of non-controlling interest. Any difference between the purchase consideration and the carrying amount of non-controlling interest acquired is recorded as a capital transaction directly in equity. The Group recognises the difference between sales consideration and carrying amount of non-controlling interest sold as a capital transaction in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. Associates. Associates are entities over which the Bank has significant influence (directly or indirectly), but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20 and 50 percent of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, and are initially recognised at cost. The carrying amount of associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Dividends received from associates reduce the carrying value of the investment in associates. Other post-acquisition changes in Group s share of net assets of an associate are recognised as follows: (i) the Group s share of profits or losses of associates is recorded in the consolidated profit or loss for the year as share of result of associates, (ii) the Group s share of other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income and presented separately, (iii); all other changes in the Group s share of the carrying value of net assets of associates are recognised in profit or loss within the share of result of associates. However, when the Group s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group s interest in the associates; unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Disposals of subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures. When the Group ceases to have control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity, are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are recycled to profit or loss. 8

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss, where appropriate. Financial instruments key measurement terms. Depending on their classification, financial instruments are carried at fair value or amortised cost as described below. Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm s length transaction. Fair value is the current bid price for financial assets and the current asking price for financial liabilities which are quoted in an active market. For assets and liabilities with offsetting market risks, the Group may use mid-market prices as a basis for establishing fair values for the offsetting risk positions, and apply the bid or asking price to the net open position as appropriate. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange or other institution, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm s length basis. Valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow models or models based on recent arm s length transactions or consideration of financial data of the investees, are used to measure at fair value certain financial instruments for which external market pricing information is not available. Valuation techniques may require assumptions not supported by observable market data. Disclosures are made in these financial statements if changing any such assumptions to a reasonably possible alternative would result in significantly different profit, income, total assets or total liabilities. Transaction costs are incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, issue or disposal of a financial instrument. An incremental cost is one that would not have been incurred if the transaction had not taken place. Transaction costs include fees and commissions paid to agents (including employees acting as selling agents), advisors, brokers and dealers, levies by regulatory agencies and securities exchanges, and transfer taxes and duties. Transaction costs do not include debt premiums or discounts, financing costs or internal administrative or holding costs. Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial instrument was recognised at initial recognition less any principal repayments, plus accrued interest, and for financial assets less any write-down for incurred impairment losses. Accrued interest includes amortisation of transaction costs deferred at initial recognition and of any premium or discount to maturity amount using the effective interest method. Accrued interest income and accrued interest expense, including both accrued coupon and amortised discount or premium (including fees deferred at origination, if any), are not presented separately and are included in the carrying values of related items in the consolidated statement of financial position. The effective interest rate method is a method of allocating interest income or interest expense over the relevant period, so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest (effective interest rate) on the carrying amount. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (excluding future credit losses) through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, if appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial instrument. The effective interest rate discounts cash flows of variable interest instruments to the next interest repricing date, except for the premium or discount which reflects the credit spread over the floating rate specified in the instrument, or other variables that are not reset to market rates. Such premiums or discounts are amortised over the whole expected life of the instrument. The present value calculation includes all fees paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Initial recognition of financial instruments. Derivatives and securities at fair value through profit or loss are initially recorded at fair value. All other financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value plus transaction costs. Fair value at initial recognition is best evidenced by the transaction price. A gain or loss on initial recognition is only recorded if there is a difference between fair value and transaction price which can be evidenced by other observable current market transactions in the same instrument or by a valuation technique whose inputs include only data from observable markets. All purchases and sales of financial assets that require delivery within the time frame established by regulation or market convention ( regular way purchases and sales) are recorded at trade date, which is the date on which the Group commits to deliver a financial asset. All other purchases are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 9

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Derecognition of financial assets. The Group derecognises financial assets when (a) the assets are redeemed or the rights to cash flows from the assets otherwise expired or (b) the Group has transferred the rights to the cash flows from the financial assets or entered into a qualifying pass-through arrangement while (i) also transferring substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the assets or (ii) neither transferring nor retaining substantially all risks and rewards of ownership, but not retaining control. Control is retained if the counterparty does not have the practical ability to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party without needing to impose restrictions on the sale. Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are items which can be converted to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value within one business day. All short term interbank placements, beyond overnight placements, are included in due from other banks. Funds of restricted nature are excluded from cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost. Mandatory cash balances with the CBRF. Mandatory cash balances with the CBRF are carried at amortised cost and represent non-interest bearing mandatory reserve deposits which are not available to finance the Group s day to day operations and hence are not considered as part of cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows. Securities at fair value through profit or loss are initially carried at fair value. Interest earned on securities at fair value through profit or loss calculated using the effective interest method is presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as interest income. Dividends are included in dividend income when the Group s right to receive the dividend payment is established and inflow of economic benefits is probable. All other elements of the changes in the fair value and gains or losses on derecognising are recorded in profit or loss as gains less losses from securities at fair value through profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Due from other banks. Amounts due from other banks are recorded when the Group advances money to counterparty banks with no intention of trading the resulting unquoted non-derivative receivable due on fixed or determinable dates. Amounts due from other banks are carried at amortised cost. Loans and advances to customers. Loans and advances to customers are recorded when the Group advances money to purchase or originate an unquoted non-derivative receivable from a customer due on fixed or determinable dates, and has no intention of trading the receivable. Loans and advances to customers are carried at amortised cost. Impairment of financial assets carried at amortised cost. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss for the year when incurred as a result of one or more events ( loss events ) that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset and which have an impact on the amount or timing of the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. If the Group determines that no objective evidence exists that impairment was incurred for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics, and collectively assesses them for impairment. The primary factors that the Group considers in determining whether a financial asset is impaired are its overdue status and realisability of related collateral, if any. The following other principal criteria are also used to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has occurred: any instalment is overdue and the late payment cannot be attributed to a delay caused by the settlement systems; the borrower experiences a significant financial difficulty as evidenced by the borrower s financial information that the Group obtains; the borrower considers bankruptcy or a financial reorganisation; there is an adverse change in the payment status of the borrower as a result of changes in the national or local economic conditions that impact the borrower; or the value of collateral significantly decreases as a result of deteriorating market conditions. 10

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. Those characteristics are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated. Securities at fair value through profit or loss. Securities at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets designated irrevocably, at initial recognition, into this category. Management designates securities into this category only if (a) such classification eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise from assessing assets or liabilities or recognising the relevant gains and losses on them on different bases; or (b) a group of financial assets, financial liabilities or both is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy, and information on that basis is regularly provided to and reviewed by the Group s key management personnel. Future cash flows in a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment, are estimated on the basis of the contractual cash flows of the assets and the experience of management in respect of the extent to which amounts will become overdue as a result of past loss events and the success of recovery of overdue amounts. Past experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect past periods, and to remove the effects of past conditions that do not exist currently. If the terms of an impaired financial asset held at amortised cost are renegotiated or otherwise modified because of financial difficulties of the borrower or issuer, impairment is measured using the original effective interest rate before the modification of terms. The renegotiated asset is then derecognised and a new asset is recognised at its fair value only if the risks and rewards of the asset substantially changed. This is normally evidenced by a substantial difference between the present values of the original cash flows and the new expected cash flows. Impairment losses are always recognised through an allowance account to write down the asset s carrying amount to the present value of expected cash flows (which exclude future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the original effective interest rate of the asset. The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of a collateralised financial asset reflects the cash flows that may result from foreclosure less costs for obtaining and selling the collateral, whether or not foreclosure is probable. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor s credit rating), the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account through profit or loss for the year. Uncollectible assets are written off against the related impairment loss provision after all the necessary procedures to recover the asset have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to impairment loss account in profit or loss for the year. Repossessed collateral. Repossessed collateral represents financial and non-financial assets acquired by the Group in settlement of overdue loans. The assets are initially recognised at fair value when acquired and included in premises and equipment, other financial assets or inventories within other assets depending on their nature and the Group's intention in respect of recovery of these assets, and are subsequently remeasured and accounted for in accordance with the accounting policies for these categories of assets. Where repossessed collateral results in acquiring control over a business, the business combination is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting with fair value of the settled loan representing the cost of acquisition (refer to the accounting policy for consolidation). Accounting policy for associates is applied to repossessed shares where the Group obtains significant influence, but not control. The cost of the associate is the fair value of the loan settled by repossessing the pledged shares. 11

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Credit related commitments. The Group enters into credit related commitments, including commitments to provide letters of credit, loan and financial guarantees. Financial guarantees represent irrevocable assurances to make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties, and carry the same credit risk as loans. Financial guarantees and commitments to provide a loan are initially recognised at their fair value, which is normally evidenced by the amount of fees received. This amount is amortised on a straight line basis over the life of the commitment, except for commitments to originate loans if it is probable that the Group will enter into a specific lending arrangement and does not expect to sell the resulting loan shortly after origination; such loan commitment fees are deferred and included in the carrying value of the loan on initial recognition. At the end of each reporting period, the commitments are measured at the higher of (i) the remaining unamortised balance of the amount at initial recognition and (ii) the best estimate of expenditure required to settle the commitment at the end of each reporting period. Sale and repurchase agreements. Sale and repurchase agreements ( repo agreements ), which effectively provide a lender s return to the counterparty, are treated as secured financing transactions. Securities sold under such sale and repurchase agreements are not derecognised. The securities are not reclassified in the consolidated statement of financial position unless the transferee has the right by contract or custom to sell or repledge the securities, in which case they are reclassified as repurchase receivables. The corresponding liability is presented within amounts due to other banks or customer accounts. Securities purchased under agreements to resell ( reverse repo agreements ), which effectively provide a lender s return to the Group, are recorded as due from other banks or loans and advances to customers, as appropriate. The difference between the sale and repurchase price is treated as interest income and accrued over the life of repo agreements using the effective interest method. Securities lent to counterparties for a fixed fee are retained in the consolidated financial statements in their original category in the statement of financial position unless the counterparty has the right by contract or custom to sell or repledge the securities, in which case they are reclassified and presented separately. Securities borrowed for a fixed fee are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements, unless these are sold to third parties, in which case the purchase and sale are recorded in profit or loss within gains less losses arising from securities at fair value through profit or loss. The obligation to return the securities is recorded at fair value in customer accounts or due to other banks. Promissory notes purchased. Promissory notes purchased are included in trading securities, or in due from other banks or in loans and advances to customers, depending on their substance and are recorded, subsequently remeasured and accounted for in accordance with the accounting policies for these categories of assets. Precious metals. The Group has a practice of taking delivery of precious metals and selling them within a short period after delivery, for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price or dealer s margin. Precious metals are carried at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss for the year. Investment property. Investment property is property held by the Group to earn rental income or for capital appreciation, or both, and is not occupied by the Group. Investment property includes assets under construction for future use as investment property. Investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and provision for impairment, where required. If any indication exists that investment properties may be impaired, the Group estimates the recoverable amount as the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell. The carrying amount of an investment property is written down to its recoverable amount through a charge to profit or loss for the year. An impairment loss recognised in prior years is reversed if there has been a subsequent change in the estimates used to determine the asset s recoverable amount. 12

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with it will flow to the Group, and the cost can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. If an investment property becomes owner-occupied, it is reclassified to premises and equipment, and its carrying amount at the date of reclassification becomes its deemed cost to be subsequently depreciated. Premises and equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost, restated to the equivalent purchasing power of the Russian Rouble at 31 December 2002 for assets acquired prior to 1 January 2003 less accumulated depreciation and provision for impairment, where required. Costs of minor repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred. Costs of replacing major parts or components of premises and equipment items are capitalised, and the replaced part is retired. At the end of each reporting period management assesses whether there is any indication of impairment of premises and equipment. If any such indication exists, management estimates the recoverable amount, which is determined as the higher of an asset s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. The carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss for the year to the extent it exceeds the previous revaluation surplus in equity. An impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior years is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset s value in use or fair value less costs to sell. Gains and losses on disposals determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount are recognised in profit or loss for the year. Depreciation. Land and construction in progress are not depreciated. Depreciation on other items of premises and equipment and investment property is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates: Premises 2%; Equipment 20%. The residual value of an asset is the estimated amount that the Group would currently obtain from disposal of the asset less the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life. The residual value of an asset is nil if the Group expects to use the asset until the end of its physical life. The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. Intangible assets. The Group s intangible assets have definite useful life and primarily include capitalised computer software. Acquired computer software licences are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. Development costs that are directly associated with identifiable and unique software controlled by the Group are recorded as intangible assets if the inflow of incremental economic benefits exceeding costs is probable. Capitalised costs include staff costs of the software development team and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads. All other costs associated with computer software, e.g. its maintenance, are expensed when incurred. Capitalised computer software is amortised on a straight line basis over expected useful lives of 5 years. Operating leases. Where the Group is a lessee in a lease which does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership from the lessor to the Group, the total lease payments are charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. When assets are leased out under an operating lease, the lease payments receivable are recognised as rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 13

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Finance lease receivables. Where the Group is a lessor in a lease which transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the lessee, the assets leased out are presented as a finance lease receivable and carried at the present value of the future lease payments. Finance lease receivables are initially recognised at commencement (when the lease term begins) using a discount rate determined at inception (the earlier of the date of the lease agreement and the date of commitment by the parties to the principal provisions of the lease). The difference between the gross receivable and the present value represents unearned finance income. This income is recognised over the term of the lease using the net investment method (before tax), which reflects a constant periodic rate of return. Incremental costs directly attributable to negotiating and arranging the lease are included in the initial measurement of the finance lease receivable and reduce the amount of income recognised over the lease term. Finance income from leases is recorded within other operating income in profit or loss for the year. Impairment losses are recognised in profit and loss for the year when incurred as a result of one or more events ( loss events ) that occurred after the initial recognition of finance lease receivables. The Group uses the same principal criteria to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has occurred, as for loans carried at amortised cost. Impairment losses are recognised through an allowance account to write down the receivables net carrying amount to the present value of expected cash flows (which exclude future credit losses that have not been incurred), discounted at the interest rates implicit in the finance leases. The estimated future cash flows reflect the cash flows that may result from obtaining and selling the assets subject to the lease. Due to other banks. Amounts due to other banks are recorded when money or other assets are advanced to the Group by counterparty banks. The non-derivative liability is carried at amortised cost. If the Group purchases its own debt, the liability is removed from the consolidated statement of financial position and the difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the consideration paid is included in gains or losses arising from early retirement of debt. Customer accounts. Customer accounts are non-derivative liabilities to individuals, state or corporate customers and are carried at amortised cost. Debt securities in issue. Debt securities in issue include promissory notes and debentures issued by the Group. Debt securities are stated at amortised cost. If the Group purchases its own debt securities in issue, they are removed from the consolidated statement of financial position and the difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the consideration paid is included in costs of repurchase of debt securities in issue. A significant change in terms of the existing debt securities in issue or in a portion thereof is accounted for as a derecognition of the original financial liability and recognition of the new financial liability. Terms are considered significant if the present value of future cash flows discounted under the new terms at the effective interest rate is different from the present value of the residual cash flows under the original financial liability by at least 10%. Murabaha Facility and Eurobonds. Murabaha facility and Eurobonds represent medium and long-term funds attracted by the Group on the international financial markets. They are carried at amortised cost. If the Group purchases its Eurobonds or repurchases goods under the Murabaha facility, they are removed from the consolidated statement of financial position and the difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the consideration paid is included in gains or losses arising from early retirement of debt. Subordinated debt. Subordinated debt represents long-term funds attracted by the Group from the Russian counterparties and are carried at amortised cost. Derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments, including foreign exchange contracts, precious metals forward contracts, currency and interest swaps and forwards are carried at their fair value. 14

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Certain derivative instruments embedded in other financial instruments are treated as separate derivative instruments when: a. their risks and characteristics are not directly related to those of the host contract; b. a separated instrument with the same conditions as an embedded derivative meets the requirements of a derivative financial instrument; and c. a hybrid (combined) instrument is not carried at fair value through profit or loss (thus a derivative financial instrument embedded in a financial asset or financial liability at fair value through profit or loss is not separated). All derivative instruments are carried as assets when fair value is positive, and as liabilities when fair value is negative. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are included in profit and loss for the year (gains less losses on derivatives). The Group does not apply hedge accounting. Income taxes. Income taxes have been provided for in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with legislation enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The income tax charge/(credit) comprises current tax and deferred tax and is recognised in profit or loss for the year, except if it is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity because it relates to transactions that are also recognised, in the same or a different period, in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Current tax is the amount expected to be paid to, or recovered from, the taxation authorities in respect of taxable profits or losses for the current and prior periods. Taxable profits or losses are based on estimates if financial statements are authorised prior to filing relevant tax returns. Taxes other than on income are recorded within administrative and other operating expenses. Deferred income tax is calculated using the balance sheet liability method for tax loss carry forwards and temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for consolidated financial reporting purposes. In accordance with the initial recognition exemption, deferred taxes are not recorded for temporary differences on initial recognition of an asset or a liability in a transaction other than a business combination if the transaction, when initially recorded, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit. Deferred tax balances are measured at tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, which are expected to apply to the period when the temporary differences will reverse or the tax loss carry forwards will be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted only within the individual companies of the Group. Deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences and tax loss carry forwards are recorded only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductions can be utilised. Deferred income tax is provided on post acquisition retained earnings and other post acquisition movements in reserves of subsidiaries, except where the Group controls the subsidiary s dividend policy and it is probable that the difference will not reverse through dividends, or otherwise, in the foreseeable future. Uncertain tax positions. The Group's uncertain tax positions are reassessed by management at every reporting date. Liabilities are recorded for income tax positions that are determined by management as more likely than not to result in additional taxes being levied if the positions were to be challenged by the tax authorities. The assessment is based on the interpretation of tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and any known court or other rulings on such issues. Liabilities for penalties, interest and taxes other than on income are recognised based on management s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligations at the end of the reporting period. Provisions for liabilities and charges. Provisions for liabilities and charges are non-financial liabilities of uncertain timing or amount. They are accrued when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. 15

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Trade and other payables. Trade payables are accrued when the counterparty has performed its obligations under the contract and are carried at amortised cost. Share capital. Ordinary shares and discretionary dividends are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the amount received from the issue of shares. Any excess of the fair value of consideration received over the par value of shares issued is recorded as additional paid-in capital in equity. Additional paid-in capital. Additional paid-in capital represents equity contributions from shareholders that do not increase share capital and do not give additional voting rights to the contributors. Additional paid-in capital is recorded as a movement in equity in the period it is received from the shareholders. Dividends. Dividends are recorded in equity in the period in which they are declared. Any dividends declared after the end of the reporting period and before the financial statements are authorised for issue, are disclosed in the subsequent events note. The statutory accounting reports of the Bank are the basis for profit distribution and other appropriations. Russian legislation identifies the basis of distribution as the current year net profit. Income and expense recognition. Interest income and expense are recorded for all debt instruments on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. This method defers, as part of interest income or expense, all fees paid or received between the parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts. Fees integral to the effective interest rate include origination fees received or paid by the entity relating to the creation or acquisition of a financial asset or issuance of a financial liability, for example fees for evaluating creditworthiness, evaluating and recording guarantees or collateral, negotiating the terms of the instrument and for processing transaction documents. Commitment fees received by the Group to originate loans at market interest rates are integral to the effective interest rate if it is probable that the Group will enter into a specific lending arrangement and does not expect to sell the resulting loan shortly after origination. The Group does not designate loan commitments as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Where loans and other debt instruments become doubtful of collection, they are written down to the present value of expected cash inflows and interest income is thereafter recorded for the unwinding of the present value discount based on the asset s effective interest rate which was used to measure the impairment loss. All other fees, commissions and other income and expense items are generally recorded on an accrual basis by reference to completion of the specific transaction assessed on the basis of the actual service provided as a proportion of the total services to be provided. Foreign currency translation. The functional currency of each of the Group s consolidated entities is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The functional currency of the Bank and its subsidiaries, and the Group s presentation currency, is the national currency of the Russian Federation, Russian Roubles ("RR"). Monetary assets and liabilities are translated into each entity s functional currency at the official exchange rate of the CBRF at the end of the respective reporting period. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities into each entity s functional currency at year-end official exchange rates of the CBRF, are recognised in profit or loss for the year (as foreign exchange translation gains less losses). Translation at year-end rates does not apply to non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency, including equity investments, are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Effects of exchange rate changes on non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are recorded as part of the fair value gain or loss. At 31 December 2012, the principal rate of exchange used for translating foreign currency balances was USD 1 = RR 30.3727 (2011: USD 1 = RR 32.1961). 16

3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Fiduciary assets. Assets held by the Group in its own name, but on the account of third parties, are not reported in the consolidated statement of financial position. Commissions received from fiduciary activities are shown in fee and commission income. Offsetting. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and to settle the liability simultaneously. Staff costs and related contributions. Wages, salaries, contributions to the Russian Federation state pension and social insurance funds, paid annual leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits are accrued in the year in which the associated services are rendered by the employees of the Group. The Group has no legal or constructive obligation to make pension or similar benefit payments beyond the payments to the statutory defined contribution scheme. Segment reporting. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Management Board, Group s chief operating decision maker. Segments whose revenue, result or assets are ten percent or more of all the segments are reported separately. Accounting for the effects of hyperinflation. The Russian Federation has previously experienced relatively high levels of inflation and was considered to be hyperinflationary as defined by IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies ( IAS 29 ). IAS 29 requires that the consolidated financial statements prepared in the currency of a hyperinflationary economy be stated in terms of the measuring unit current at the reporting date. It states that reporting operating results and financial position in the local currency without restatement is not useful because money loses purchasing power at such a rate that the comparison of amounts from transactions and other events that have occurred at different times, even within the same accounting period, is misleading. The characteristics of the economic environment of the Russian Federation indicate that hyperinflation has ceased effective from 1 January 2003. Restatement procedures of IAS 29 are therefore only applied to premises and equipment acquired or revalued and share capital paid prior to that date. For these balances, the amounts expressed in the measuring unit current at as 31 December 2002 are the basis for the carrying amounts in these consolidated financial statements. The restatement was calculated using the conversion factors derived from the Russian Federation Consumer Price Index ( CPI ), published by the Russian Statistics Agency, and from indices obtained from other sources for years prior to 1992. Refer to Note 21. Changes in presentation. Where necessary, corresponding figures have been adjusted to conform to the presentation of the current year amounts. The effect of reclassifications on the 2011 results for presentation purposes was as follows: As originally presented Reclassification As reclassified Income from investment properties - 78 637 78 637 Other operating income 344 575 (78 637) 265 978 The reclassifications had no impact on any other captions in the consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures. The changes in presentation adopted in 2012 did not have any impact on the consolidated statement of financial position and the Group, therefore, does not present the information as of 1 January 2011. 17

4 Critical Accounting Estimates, and Judgements in Applying Accounting Policies The Group makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements, and the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on management s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management also makes certain judgements, apart from those involving estimations, in the process of applying the accounting policies. Judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements and estimates that can cause a significant adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year include: Impairment losses on loans and advances. The Group regularly reviews its loan portfolios to assess impairment. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in the statement of comprehensive income, the Group makes judgements as to whether there is any observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a portfolio of loans before the decrease can be identified with an individual loan in that portfolio. This evidence may include observable data indicating that there has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers in a group, or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on assets in the group. Principal criteria used to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has occurred are as follows: any instalment is overdue and the late payment cannot be attributed to a delay caused by the settlement systems; observable data indicating that there has been an adverse change in the payment status of borrowers in a group, or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on assets in the group; information that the borrower experiences a significant financial difficulty as evidenced by the borrower s financial information that the Group obtains; the borrower considers bankruptcy or a financial reorganisation; the value of collateral significantly decreases as a result of deteriorating market conditions. Management uses estimates based on historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics and objective evidence of impairment similar to those in the portfolio when scheduling its future cash flows. The methodology and assumptions used for estimating both the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce any differences between loss estimates and actual loss experience. To the extent that the assessed probability of default differs by +/-5% (2011:+/-5%) of the total loans and advances to customers, the provision would be approximately RR 218 561 thousand (2011: RR 183 834 thousand) higher or lower. Tax legislation. Russian tax, currency and customs legislation is subject to varying interpretations. Refer to Note 30. Deferred income tax asset recognition. The recognised deferred income tax asset represents income taxes recoverable through future deductions from taxable profits and is recorded on the consolidated statement of financial position. Deferred income tax assets are recorded to the extent that realisation of the related tax benefit is probable. The future taxable profits and the amount of tax benefits that are probable in the future are based on a medium- and long-term business plan of the Group prepared by management. The business plan is based on management expectations that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Key assumptions used in the business plan are the following: increase of the loan portfolio by 10% p.a., increase in net interest income by 10% p.a., increase of MICEX index by 5% p.a., reduced growth rate of the Group's operating expenses starting from 2013. In accordance with this forecast the cumulative taxable profit of the Group for the next 5 years is estimated in the amount of approximately RR 18.4 billion. 18

4 Critical Accounting Estimates, and Judgements in Applying Accounting Policies (Continued) Classification of certain assets as investment properties. In August 2011, the Group acquired the retail and entertainment centre Tandem, having obtained control over ZAO ISK Tandem. In March 2010, the Group purchased a hotel via investments into the Mutual Investment Fund Ak Bars Zemelniy Fond. The management of the Group applied professional judgement in classification of the hotel and retail and entertainment centre as investment properties in the consolidated financial statements based on the substance of the transactions. The principal considerations that the Group analyses to form a professional judgement are analysis of the economic substance of the transactions and the management's intention to sell these assets in future. The management of the Group also analyse whether a management function and provision of services is carried out by a third party to whom the Group transferred those responsibilities under lease agreement, whether the Group has a power to make significant operating and financing decisions regarding the operations of the hotel, whether the return accruing to the Group is based on the value of hotel and retail and entertainment centre, duration of the lease agreement and renewability condition. Management believes that classification of the hotel and the retail and entertainment centre as the investment property in the consolidated financial statements complies with the requirements of IAS 40, reflects the economic substance of the transaction, and will contribute to better understanding of these transactions by the users of the consolidated financial statements. Impairment of investment property. The Group regularly assesses its investment property for impairment. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in profit or loss for the year, the Group makes judgements as to whether there is any indication that its investment properties have suffered a decrease in their carrying value as compared to similar properties based on the reports of independent, professionally qualified valuers. If the carrying value of an investment property exceeds its fair value the Group recognises impairment of the investment property in profit or loss for the year. Initial recognition of related party transactions. In the normal course of business the Group enters into transactions with its related parties. IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, requires initial recognition of financial instruments based on their fair values. Judgement is applied in determining if transactions are priced at market or non-market interest rates, where there is no active market for such transactions. The basis for judgement is pricing for similar types of transactions with unrelated parties and effective interest rate analysis. Terms and conditions of related party balances are disclosed in Notes 35 and 36. Going concern. Management prepared these consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. Refer to Note 28. 5 Adoption of New or Revised Standards and Interpretations The following new standards and interpretations became effective for the Group from 1 January 2012: Disclosures Transfers of Financial Assets Amendments to IFRS 7 (issued in October 2010 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011). The amendment requires additional disclosures in respect of risk exposures arising from transferred financial assets. The amendment includes a requirement to disclose by class of asset the nature, carrying amount and a description of the risks and rewards of financial assets that have been transferred to another party, yet remain on the entity's balance sheet. Disclosures are also required to enable a user to understand the amount of any associated liabilities, and the relationship between the financial assets and associated liabilities. Where financial assets have been derecognised, but the entity is still exposed to certain risks and rewards associated with the transferred asset, additional disclosure is required to enable the effects of those risks to be understood. The standard requires these new disclosures to be presented in a separate note. Refer to Note 31. 19

5 Adoption of New or Revised Standards and Interpretations (Continued) Recovery of Underlying Assets Amendments to IAS 12 (issued in December 2010 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012). The amendment introduced a rebuttable presumption that an investment property carried at fair value is recovered entirely through sale. This presumption is rebutted if the investment property is held within a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. SIC-21, Income Taxes Recovery of Revalued Non-Depreciable Assets, which addresses similar issues involving non-depreciable assets measured using the revaluation model in IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, was incorporated into IAS 12 after excluding from its scope investment properties measured at fair value. Unless otherwise stated above, the amendments and interpretations did not have any significant effect on the Group s consolidated financial statements. Other revised standards and interpretations: The amendments to IFRS 1, First-time adoption of IFRS, relating to severe hyperinflation and eliminating references to fixed dates for certain exceptions and exemptions, did not have any impact on these financial statements. The amendment to IAS 12, Income taxes, which introduced a rebuttable presumption that an investment property carried at fair value is recovered entirely through sale, did not have a material impact on these consolidated financial statements. 6 New Accounting Pronouncements Certain new standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for the annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012 or later, and which the Group has not early adopted: IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013), replaces all of the guidance on control and consolidation in IAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, and SIC-12, Consolidation - special purpose entities. IFRS 10 changes the definition of control so that the same criteria are applied to all entities to determine control. This definition is supported by extensive application guidance. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amended standard on its consolidated financial statements. IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013), replaces IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures, and SIC-13, Jointly Controlled Entities Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers. Changes in the definitions have reduced the number of types of joint arrangements to two: joint operations and joint ventures. The existing policy choice of proportionate consolidation for jointly controlled entities has been eliminated. Equity accounting is mandatory for participants in joint ventures. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements. IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013), applies to entities that have an interest in a subsidiary, a joint arrangement, an associate or an unconsolidated structured entity. It replaces the disclosure requirements currently found in IAS 28, Investments in Associates. IFRS 12 requires entities to disclose information that helps financial statement readers to evaluate the nature, risks and financial effects associated with the entity s interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and unconsolidated structured entities. To meet these objectives, the new standard requires disclosures in a number of areas, including significant judgements and assumptions made in determining whether an entity controls, jointly controls, or significantly influences its interests in other entities, extended disclosures on share of non-controlling interests in group activities and cash flows, summarised financial information of subsidiaries with material non-controlling interests, and detailed disclosures of interests in unconsolidated structured entities. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements. IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement, (issued in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013), aims to improve consistency and reduce complexity by providing a revised definition of fair value, and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. 20

6 New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued) IAS 27, Separate Financial Statements, (revised in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013), was changed and its objective is now to prescribe the accounting and disclosure requirements for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates when an entity prepares separate financial statements. The guidance on control and consolidated financial statements was replaced by IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amended standard on its consolidated financial statements. IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures, (revised in May 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). The amendment of IAS 28 resulted from the Board s project on joint ventures. When discussing that project, the Board decided to incorporate the accounting for joint ventures using the equity method into IAS 28 because this method is applicable to both joint ventures and associates. With this exception, other guidance remained unchanged. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amended standard on its consolidated financial statements. Amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (issued in June 2011, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012), changes the disclosure of items presented in other comprehensive income. The amendments require entities to separate items presented in other comprehensive income into two groups, based on whether or not they may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future. The suggested title used by IAS 1 has changed to statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The Group expects the amended standard to change presentation of its consolidated financial statements, but have no impact on measurement of transactions and balances. Amended IAS 19, Employee Benefits (issued in June 2011, effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013), makes significant changes to the recognition and measurement of defined benefit pension expense and termination benefits, and to the disclosures for all employee benefits. The standard requires recognition of all changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) when they occur, as follows: (i) service cost and net interest in profit or loss; and (ii) remeasurements in other comprehensive income. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amended standard on its consolidated financial statements. Disclosures Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Amendments to IFRS 7 (issued in December 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013). The amendment requires disclosures that will enable users of an entity s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements, including rights of set-off. The amendment will have an impact on disclosures but will have no effect on measurement and recognition of financial instruments. Amendments to IFRS 1 First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards Government loans (issued in March 2012 and effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2013). The amendments, dealing with loans received from governments at a below market rate of interest, give first-time adopters of IFRSs relief from full retrospective application of IFRSs when accounting for these loans on transition. This will give first-time adopters the same relief as existing preparers. The amendment will not have an impact on the Group s consolidated financial statements. Improvements to International Financial Reporting Standards (issued in May 2012 and effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2013). The improvements consist of changes to five standards. IFRS 1 was amended to (i) clarify that an entity that resumes preparing its IFRS financial statements may either repeatedly apply IFRS 1 or apply all IFRSs retrospectively as if it had never stopped applying them, and (ii) to add an exemption from applying IAS 23, Borrowing costs, retrospectively by first-time adopters. IAS 1 was amended to clarify that explanatory notes are not required to support the third balance sheet presented at the beginning of the preceding period when it is provided because it was materially impacted by a retrospective restatement, changes in accounting policies or reclassifications for presentation purposes, while explanatory notes will be required when an entity voluntarily decides to provide additional comparative statements. IAS 16 was amended to clarify that servicing equipment that is used for more than one period is classified as property, plant and equipment rather than inventory. IAS 32 was amended to clarify that certain tax consequences of distributions to owners should be accounted for in the income statement as was always required by IAS 12. IAS 34 was amended to bring its requirements in line with IFRS 8. IAS 34 will require disclosure of a measure of total assets and liabilities for an operating segment only if such information is regularly provided to chief operating decision maker and there has been a material change in those measures since the last annual financial statements. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its consolidated financial statements. 21

6 New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued) Transition Guidance Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 (issued in June 2012 and effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2013). The amendments clarify the transition guidance in IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements. Entities adopting IFRS 10 should assess control at the first day of the annual period in which IFRS 10 is adopted, and if the consolidation conclusion under IFRS 10 differs from IAS 27 and SIC 12, the immediately preceding comparative period (that is, year 2012 for a calendar year-end entity that adopts IFRS 10 in 2013) is restated, unless impracticable. The amendments also provide additional transition relief in IFRS 10, IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, and IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, by limiting the requirement to provide adjusted comparative information only for the immediately preceding comparative period. Further, the amendments will remove the requirement to present comparative information for disclosures related to unconsolidated structured entities for periods before IFRS 12 is first applied. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its consolidated financial statements. Other revised standards and interpretations: IFRIC 20, Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine, considers when and how to account for the benefits arising from the stripping activity in mining industry. The interpretation will not have an impact on the Group s consolidated financial statements. Unless otherwise described above, the new standards and interpretations are not expected to affect significantly the Group s consolidated financial statements. Certain new standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for the annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013, and not yet adopted in the Russian Federation: IFRS 9, Financial Instruments Part 1: Classification and Measurement. IFRS 9, issued in November 2009, replaces those parts of IAS 39 relating to the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was further amended in October 2010 to address the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and in December 2011 to (i) change its effective date to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015 and (ii) add transition disclosures. Key features of the standard are as follows: Financial assets are required to be classified into two measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at fair value, and those to be measured subsequently at amortised cost. The decision is to be made at initial recognition. The classification depends on the entity s business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. An instrument is subsequently measured at amortised cost only if it is a debt instrument and both (i) the objective of the entity s business model is to hold the asset to collect the contractual cash flows, and (ii) the asset s contractual cash flows represent payments of principal and interest only (that is, it has only basic loan features ). All other debt instruments are to be measured at fair value through profit or loss. All equity instruments are to be measured subsequently at fair value. Equity instruments that are held for trading will be measured at fair value through profit or loss. For all other equity investments, an irrevocable election can be made at initial recognition, to recognise unrealised and realised fair value gains and losses through other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss. There is to be no recycling of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss. This election may be made on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Dividends are to be presented in profit or loss, as long as they represent a return on investment. Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward unchanged to IFRS 9. The key change is that an entity will be required to present the effects of changes in own credit risk of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss in other comprehensive income. While adoption of IFRS 9 is mandatory from 1 January 2015, earlier adoption is permitted. The Group is considering the implications of the standard, the impact on the Group and the timing of its adoption by the Group. 22

6 New Accounting Pronouncements (Continued) Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Amendments to IAS 32 (issued in December 2011 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014). The amendment added application guidance to IAS 32 to address inconsistencies identified in applying some of the offsetting criteria. This includes clarifying the meaning of currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off and that some gross settlement systems may be considered equivalent to net settlement. The Group is considering the implications of the amendment, the impact on the Group and the timing of its adoption by the Group. Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27 Investment entities (issued on 31 October 2012 and effective for annual periods beginning 1 January 2014). The amendment introduced a definition of an investment entity as an entity that (i) obtains funds from investors for the purpose of providing them with investment management services, (ii) commits to its investors that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for capital appreciation or investment income and (iii) measures and evaluates its investments on a fair value basis. An investment entity will be required to account for its subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss, and to consolidate only those subsidiaries that provide services that are related to the entity's investment activities. IFRS 12 was amended to introduce new disclosures, including any significant judgements made in determining whether an entity is an investment entity and information about financial or other support to an unconsolidated subsidiary, whether intended or already provided to the subsidiary. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the amendments on its consolidated financial statements. Unless otherwise described above, the new standards and interpretations are not expected to affect significantly the Group s consolidated financial statements. 23

The Group analyses the credit quality of cash and cash equivalents on the basis of Fitch ratings and in case of their absence uses Standard and Poor s or Moody's ratings adjusting them to Fitch categories. The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents balances, excluding cash on hand, may be summarised as follows at 31 December 2012: In thousands of Russian Roubles Cash balances with the CBRF, including mandatory reserves Settlement accounts with trading systems Correspondent accounts and overnight placements Total Neither past due nor impaired - Central Bank of the Russian Federation 12 808 570 - - 12 808 570 - AAA rated - - 364 052 364 052 - AA- to AA+ rated - - 606 120 606 120 - A- to A+ rated - 819 4 435 672 4 436 491 - Lower than A- rated - 9 432 992 307 539 9 740 531 - Unrated - 2 439 811 104 393 2 544 204 Total cash and cash equivalents excluding cash on hand 12 808 570 11 873 622 5 817 776 30 499 968 24

The information on the estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents is disclosed in Note 32. Information on related party balances is disclosed in Notes 35 and 36. 8 Securities at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss 31 December 2012 31 December 2011 Corporate bonds 9 830 325 7 638 077 Federal loan bonds (OFZ) 4 068 452 5 329 287 Corporate Eurobonds 625 302 674 503 Municipal bonds 57 883 1 405 380 Total debt securities 14 581 962 15 047 247 Corporate shares 3 753 779 9 899 473 Global depositary receipts 1 323 001 1 398 557 Investments in mutual funds 339 517 381 022 American depositary receipts 20 115 4 366 163 Total securities at fair value through profit or loss 20 018 374 31 092 462 25

8 Securities at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (Continued) The Group irrevocably designated the above securities which are not part of its trading book, as at fair value through profit or loss. The securities meet the criteria for classification as at fair value through profit or loss because key management personnel assess performance of the investments based on their fair values in accordance with a strategy documented in the business plan. Corporate bonds are Russian Rouble denominated debt securities issued by large Russian companies and banks. These bonds are traded on Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange (MICEX), other Russian stock exchanges or on the over-the-counter market. At 31 December 2012 these bonds have maturity dates from April 2013 to March 2022 (2011: from March 2012 to October 2023), coupon rates from 7.0% p.a. to 15.0% p.a. (2011: from 6.7% p.a. to 19.0% p.a.) and yield to maturity from 7.3% p.a. to 16.6% p.a. (2011: from 6.5% p.a. to 11.5% p.a.), depending on the type of bond issue. OFZ bonds are Russian Rouble denominated government debt securities issued by the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.

Corporate Eurobonds are debt securities denominated in USD, issued by large Russian companies and are freely tradable internationally. At 31 December 2012 these bonds have maturity dates from July 2013 to March 2015 (2011: from July 2013 to March 2015), coupon rate from 9.5% to 10.0% (2011: from 9.5% to 10.0%) and yield to maturity from 2.4% to 10.2% p.a.(2011: from 4.7% to 9.6% p.a.), depending on the type of bond issue. Municipal bonds are Russian Rouble denominated debt securities issued by municipal administrations and constituents of the Russian Federation. These bonds are traded on Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange (MICEX), other Russian stock exchanges or on the over-the-counter market.

Global depositary receipts represent rights for shares of large Russian companies and banks, traded internationally. Investments in mutual funds are Russian Rouble denominated investments without stated maturity. These funds reinvest cash collected mainly into shares and debentures of large and medium Russian companies. American depositary receipts represent rights for shares of large Russian companies and banks, traded in American and international stock exchanges. 26

8 Securities at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (Continued) The Group applies the following internal ratings to assess the credit risk of its debt securities: Investment rating represents internal rating of the Bank from A to B, which is the highest rating indicating the lowest credit risk levels; Speculative rating represents internal rating bands from B- to CCC+; Non-standard rating represents internal rating from CCC to D, which indicates the highest credit risk level. When assessing quality of debt securities at fair value through profit or loss the Group applies classification from A to D based on Fitch ratings. Securities designated at fair value through profit or loss are carried at fair value, which also reflects any credit risk related write-downs. As the securities are carried at their fair values based on observable market data, the Group does not analyse or monitor impairment indicators. Analysis by credit quality of debt securities at fair value through profit or loss outstanding at 31 December 2012 is as follows: Corporate bonds and Eurobonds Federal loan bonds Municipal bonds Total Investment rating 7 548 493 4 068 452 47 896 11 664 841 Speculative rating 281 785 - - 281 785 Non-standard rating 455 247 - - 455 247 Securities without rating 2 170 102-9 987 2 180 089 Total debt securities 10 455 627 4 068 452 57 883 14 581 962 Analysis by credit quality of debt securities at fair value through profit or loss outstanding at 31 December 2011 is as follows: Corporate bonds and Eurobonds Federal loan bonds Municipal bonds Total Investment rating 7 769 067 5 329 287 1 395 394 14 493 748 Non-standard rating 427 654 - - 427 654 Securities without rating 115 859-9 986 125 845 Total debt securities 8 312 580 5 329 287 1 405 380 15 047 247 Securities at fair value through profit or loss as at 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011 are neither past due nor impaired. 27

8 Securities at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (Continued) Gains less losses/(losses less gains) from securities at fair value through profit or loss represent both a financial result from disposal of securities and a result from revaluation of securities in the Group's portfolio. This financial result is heavily influenced by financial market trends. In 2011, decline of market quotes on securities in the Group's portfolio resulted in recognition of significant losses less gains from securities at fair value through profit or loss. In 2012, market quotes for a significant portion of the Group's securities portfolio increased. In 2012, the Group recognised significant gains from revaluation of securities as well as gains less losses from disposal of securities. Geographical, liquidity and interest rate analyses of securities at fair value through profit or loss are disclosed in Note 28, the information on securities at fair value through profit or loss issued by related parties is disclosed in Notes 35 and 36. 9 Due from Other Banks 31 December 2012 31 December 2011 Current term placements with other banks 3 751 953 3 426 025 Reverse sale and repurchase agreements with other banks 141 954 - Total due from other banks 3 893 907 3 426 025 At 31 December 2012 reverse sale and repurchase agreements with other banks were effectively collateralised by securities purchased under reverse sale and repurchase agreements at a fair value of RR 151 125 thousand. At 31 December 2012 the Group had no right to sell or repledge securities received under reverse sale and repurchase agreements. For the purpose of credit quality analysis of due from other banks the Group applies internal rating system based on the nature of the counterparty. This internal rating system has five risk levels from A to E, where A is assigned to largest international banks and has the lowest credit risk level, and E is assigned to loans to Russian local commercial banks with the highest risk level assessment. Amounts due from other banks are not collateralised. Analysis by credit quality of amounts due from other banks outstanding at 31 December 2012, is as follows: Current term placements Reverse sale and repurchase agreements with other banks Total due from other banks A - Loans to the largest international banks 371 338-371 338 B - Loans to subsidiaries of the largest international banks and CBRF deposits 965 449-965 449 C - Loans to Russian universal commercial banks 1 990 098-1 990 098 E - Loans to Russian local commercial banks 425 068 141 954 567 022 Total due from other banks 3 751 953 141 954 3 893 907 28

9 Due from Other Banks (Continued) Analysis by credit quality of amounts due from other banks outstanding at 31 December 2011 is as follows: Total current term deposits A - Loans to the largest international banks 1 150 826 B - Loans to subsidiaries of the largest international banks and CBRF deposits 1 953 450 C - Loans to Russian universal commercial banks 146 720 E - Loans to Russian local commercial banks 175 029 Total due from other banks 3 426 025 The primary factor that the Group considers in determining whether amounts due from other banks are impaired is their overdue status. As at 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011 the Group did not have any past due and impaired amounts in due from other banks. At 31 December 2012 the Group had cash balances with one counterparty bank (2011: one bank) with aggregated amount above RR 1 200 000 thousand.

The Group does not have a separate credit quality internal rating system for loans to individuals, as each type of loan product to individuals has standard terms (e.g., mortgage loans, plastic cards, overdrafts, car loans, etc.), and credit risk analysis is performed based on the statistics collected by the Group for each loan product. In this case, the Group performs credit risk analysis based on the statistics for each loan product. 35

Therefore, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when they relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. As at 31 December 2012 deferred tax asset of RR 2 407 626 thousand (2011: RR 2 640 200 thousand) has been recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position as the management believes that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which this recognised deferred tax asset can be utilised. 53

The CODM is the person or group of persons who allocates resources and assesses the performance for the entity. The functions of the CODM are performed by the Management Board of the Bank. (a) Description of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its revenue The Group is organised on a basis of four main business segments: retail banking representing private banking services, private customer current accounts, savings, deposits, investment savings products, custody, credit and debit cards, consumer loans and mortgages; corporate banking representing direct debit facilities, current accounts, deposits, overdrafts, loan and other credit facilities, foreign currency and derivative products; investment banking representing financial instruments trading, structured financing, corporate leasing, merger and acquisitions advice. treasury operations representing attraction and placement of short-term interbank loans and the Bank's liquidity management, currency conversion operations and management of the Bank's foreign exchange position, cash transactions collateral, participation in currency, interest and transfer pricing. (b) Factors that management used to identify the reportable segments The Group s segments are strategic business units that focus on different customers. They are managed separately because each business unit requires different marketing strategies and service level. 54

27 Segment Analysis (Continued) The Group determines reporting segments as organisational units the information on which is submitted to key managers to assess performance results and future distribution of resources. (c) Measurement of operating segments profit or loss, assets and liabilities The CODM reviews the Bank s financial information prepared based on Russian Accounting Rules (RAR). Such financial information differs in certain aspects from International Financial Reporting Standards. The main differences are as follows: adjustments of the provision for impairment of loans and advances to customers arise from the difference between the methodology used to calculate provisions for loan impairment under IFRS and RAR to prepare management reports. Under RAR, the provision is calculated in accordance with CBRF requirements based on formal criteria depending on the financial position of the borrower, quality of debt servicing and availability of collateral, whereas under IFRS in accordance with IAS 39 the provision is calculated based on actual losses incurred; differences in revaluation of securities at fair value through profit or loss under IFRS arise from the difference in the valuation techniques used under the IFRS and RAR to prepare management reports. The Bank calculates carrying value of securities for management reporting purposes under RAR using daily weighted average price quotations and takes into consideration provision for impairment of certain securities, while under IFRS securities are carried at fair value on the basis of the last bid quotations; adjustments of accruals arise mainly from the fact that the Group uses nominal interest rates to calculate income and expense items for preparation of management reports and effective interest rates to calculate those items for IFRS financial statements; deferred income tax position is not calculated for the purposes of management reporting; consolidation of subsidiaries is not considered in management reports; revaluation of derivative financial instruments arise from the difference in the recording of transactions under RAR (which are the basis for management reporting) and under IFRS. Thus, under RAR some derivative financial instruments are recorded off-balance sheet and consequently are not taken into account for the purposes of management reporting, while in IFRS financial statements all financial derivative instruments are recorded at fair value within assets or liabilities depending upon differences between fair value of receivables and payables; provisions for impairment of other financial assets under RAR management reporting are calculated using the methodology based on formal impairment criteria according to CBRF regulations. The Group calculates provisions for impairment of other financial assets in its IFRS financial statements by comparing their carrying value with recoverable amount according to the management s best estimate; difference between the value of the investment property carried at cost in financial statements under IFRS and at fair value in management reports under RAR; all other differences also result from the differences between RAR (used as the basis for management reporting) and IFRS. The Bank's Management Board evaluates performance of each segment based on profit before tax. 55

The Group sees its main economic priority in increasing the share of risk-free commission transactions in the total volume of operating profit. Stop-loss limits. Making decisions on the practicability of carrying out transactions with mandatory consideration of inherent risks. Rejecting a transaction if the amount of possible losses exceeds the established limit or potential economic benefits. Diversification. Decreasing the volume of possible losses through diversification of the Group s assets and liabilities (limits on volumes of transactions with counterparties, economic entities; limits on types of financial instruments, positional VaR limits on instruments recorded in accordance with RAR). Considering risk premiums in evaluating the comparative efficiency of the Group s transactions. The efficiency of the Group s transactions is evaluated with mandatory consideration of the volume of expected losses and the cost of coverage of inherent anticipated losses; Compensation. Limiting (hedging) risks using: insurance; derivatives for compensation of possible losses on hedged assets; incorporation of financial instruments with differently directed sensitivity to homogenous risks into the trading portfolio. 59

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) The Group s risk management policy covers credit, market (equity, currency, interest rate), liquidity and operational (including legal and reputational) risks. The primary objectives of the financial risk management function are to establish risk limits, and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. Operational, legal and reputational risk management ensures proper functioning of all systems and structures of the Group and enables to minimise the impact of negative events of an operational nature on the Group s activity and financial results. Credit risk. Given the specific nature of the Group s activity, exposure to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay all amounts in full when due, is the main type of risk inherent in the Group s operations. Credit risk management covers evaluation and control of credit risk associated both with individual borrowers and groups of interrelated borrowers. The risk evaluation and decision making processes are strictly regulated. The Group has collegial bodies (committees) responsible for setting limits on counterparties and making credit and investment decisions. The Group s maximum exposure to credit risk is reflected in the carrying amounts of financial assets on the consolidated statement of financial position. For credit related commitments, the exposure to credit risk is the amount of the commitment. Refer to Note 30. Depending on the level of approved authorities, the issues of setting credit limits are addressed by the Big, Small Credit Committees or by Credit Committees of territorial divisions. For the purpose of credit risk management, the staff of credit divisions regularly review client s business and financial results using the Group s in-house credit risk evaluation methodologies. Credit risk is evaluated on the basis of the internal credit rating system. Moreover, on a monthly basis the Risk Department monitors credit risk of certain counterparties and portfolio of assets in the course of preparation of management accounts for the Group management. The Group monitors exposure to banks using a system of limits set by the Bank s Limit Committee on the basis of the developed internal methodology of evaluating credit institutions financial position. The Risk Department monitors counterparties creditworthiness on a regular basis by issuing recommendations for changing the existing limits. Credit exposure to other groups of borrowers (other than banks) is also monitored through setting limits on different types and terms of transactions for each individual counterparty and industry segment (economic entity), including regular monitoring of borrowers creditworthiness on the basis of evaluation and rating systems. Methods of credit risk management were enhanced (procedures for loans issuance and monitoring became more rigorous, limits are revised on a regular basis depending on the changes on the market). The Group's system of limits has a multilevel structure. Risks are limited both at the level of portfolio and aggregate figures, and at the level of transactions and counterparties. Specifically, the Group sets up the following credit risk limits that are regularly and efficiently revised depending on the market situation: aggregate credit risk limit; limit on assets exposed to credit risk; limits on short-term interbank transactions with counterparty banks; limits on investments in issuers debt securities; 60

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) limits on investments in groups of interrelated counterparties; limits on investments by industries; and limit on entity s liabilities to the Bank. Actual exposures against limits are monitored daily. The management monitors concentration of credit risk with industry segments, groups of interrelated borrowers and types of assets on a monthly basis. Credit risk concentration is monitored on the basis of the above limits. Credit risk for off-balance sheet financial instruments is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss as a result of another party to a financial instrument failing to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. The Group uses the same credit policies in assuming conditional obligations as it does for onbalance sheet financial instruments, through established credit approvals, risk control limits and monitoring procedures. Market risk. The Group takes on exposure to market risks arising from open positions in interest rate, currency, equity and debt instruments, all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements. The Group manages market risk using a system of limits on possible losses from unfavourable market fluctuations. Limits are set by the Limit Committee and adjusted with consideration of aggregate VaR evaluation (recorded in accordance with RAR) of price risk inherent in equity portfolio, currency risk and interest rate risk components. Depending on the situation in the financial markets and general economic situation (in particular, during crisis phenomena in the economy), the Group applies a combination of methods to assess market risk. Specifically, in the credit crunch conditions, the market risk assessment based on statistics of real losses incurred during the crisis period was added to traditional VAR evaluation (recorded in accordance with RAR). This approach allowed a more adequate estimation of possible losses from unusual changes of market indicators and limited the impact of market risks on the Group s indicators. Market risks are managed through forming and observing market risk limits. Market risk limits include: aggregate market risk limit; open currency position limit; open position on investment operations for the security portfolio (exposed to equity risk), limits on transactions broken down by issuer; limits on transactions with debt securities broken down by issuer and type of transactions; limits on the security portfolio (by type of transactions investment, speculative, repo transactions); limits on losses from trading transactions (stop-loss, take-profit); and concentration limits on investments by industries. The Group evaluates market risk both for individual financial instruments and the asset portfolio. The responsibility for market risk evaluation and issue of recommendations for managing this risk on a regular basis lies with the Risk Department which provides the results of risk evaluation in the form of monthly memoranda to the Group s management. Market risk evaluation can also be done in other cases, for example, when there are dramatic changes in market conditions. Given the established investment policy of the Group (a relatively small amount of assets exposed to market risk, predominance of bonds in the equity portfolio), the level of market risk is relatively low and insignificant against the level of credit risk. In these circumstances managing market risk on a monthly basis is sufficient in terms of manageability of this type of risk. 61

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) Currency Risk. The Group takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on its financial position and cash flows. The Assets and Liability Committee sets limits on the level of exposure by currency and in total for both overnight and intra-day positions which are monitored daily. The table below summarises the Group s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk at the reporting date: In thousands of Russian Roubles Monetary financial assets 2012 2011 Monetary Derivative Net Monetary Monetary financial financial balance financial financial liabilities instruments sheet assets liabilities position Derivative financial instruments Net balance sheet position Russian Roubles 230 309 769 239 827 756 (10 355 479) (19 873 466) 199 156 434 227 283 282 10 232 677 (17 894 172) USD 33 663 008 42 656 742 9 840 760 847 026 26 558 246 25 448 441 (11 639 857) (10 530 051) Other 8 392 181 5 701 353 (112 150) 2 578 678 7 638 304 7 037 923 1 052 180 1 652 562 Total 272 364 958 288 185 851 (626 869) (16 447 762) 233 352 984 259 769 646 (355 000) (26 771 661) The following table presents sensitivities of profit or loss and equity to reasonably possible changes in exchange rates applied at the reporting date relative to the functional currency of the Group, with all other variables held constant: Impact on profit or loss 2012 2011 Impact on equity Impact on profit or loss Impact on equity US dollar strengthening by 15% (2011: 15%) 127 054 127 054 (1 579 508) (1 579 508) US dollar weakening by 15% (2011: 15%) (127 054) (127 054) 1 579 508 1 579 508 The exposure was calculated only for monetary balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the Group entities. Interest rate risk. The Group takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its financial position and cash flows Interest margins may increase as a result of such changes, but may reduce or create losses in the event that unexpected movements arise. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk, principally through fixed rate loans, the amounts and terms of which differ from the amounts and terms of fixed rate borrowings. In practice, interest rates are set for a short period of time. In practice, interest rates that are contractually fixed on both assets and liabilities are usually renegotiated to reflect current market conditions. The Bank s Limit Committee monitors on a daily basis and sets limits on the level of mismatch of interest rate repricing that may be undertaken. In the absence of any available hedging instruments, the Group normally seeks to match its interest rate positions. 62

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) The Group is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk, principally through assets and liabilities for which interest rates are reset as market rates change. The Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk as a result of assets and liabilities at fixed interest rates. In carrying out the risk sensitivity analysis, the Group assumed a 30 basis points change in base interest rates as the reasonably possible change (the difference between the minimum and the maximum annual values in LIBOR in 2011 was approximately 40 basis points). The key financial instruments that cause sensitivity of profit to market interest rate changes are instruments, for which the interest rate depends on LIBOR. If interest rates would have been 30 basis points lower at 31 December 2012 with all other variables held constant, profit for the year would have been by RR 214 957 thousand higher (2011: profit for the year would have been RR 306 657 thousand higher). If interest rates at the above date would have been 30 basis points lower with all other variables held constant, profit for the year would have been by RR 214 957 thousand lower (2011: profit for the year would have been RR 306 657 thousand lower). The table below summarises the Group s exposure to interest rate risks. The table presents the aggregated amounts of the Group s financial assets and liabilities at carrying amounts, categorised by the earlier of contractual interest repricing or maturity dates: In thousands of Russian Roubles Demand and less than 1 month From 1 to 6 months From 6 to 12 months More than 1 year Nonmonetary assets 31 December 2012 Total financial assets 70 816 457 36 862 874 19 033 534 153 142 575 860 335 280 715 775 Total financial liabilities 83 710 268 51 143 686 43 723 017 109 608 880-288 185 851 Total Net interest sensitivity gap at 31 December 2012 (12 893 811) (14 280 812) (24 689 483) 43 533 695 860 335 (7 470 076) 31 December 2011 Total financial assets 74 030 173 19 390 855 12 866 055 144 802 742 862 837 251 952 662 Total financial liabilities 86 371 084 42 246 541 39 617 087 91 534 934-259 769 646 Net interest sensitivity gap at 31 December 2011 (12 340 911) (22 855 686) (26 751 032) 53 267 808 862 837 (7 816 984) 63

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) The Group monitors interest rates for its financial instruments. The table below summarises interest rates based on reports reviewed by key management personnel of the Group. This analysis has been prepared based on the data as at the end of the year: % p.a. 2012 2011 RR USD Euros RR USD Euros ASSETS Cash and cash equivalents 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% Mandatory cash balances with CBRF 0% - - 0% - - Securities at fair value through profit or loss 9% 10% 10% 10% 10% 10% Due from other banks 3% 0% - 5% 0% - Loans and advances to customers - legal entities 11% 9% 7% 11% 9% 8% - individuals 15% 12% - 14% 10% - Repurchase receivables 7% - - 8% 10% - Liabilities Due to other banks 8% 2% 2% 8% 1% 3% Customer accounts 8% 3% 3% 7% 3% 2% Debt securities in issue 11% - - 12% - - Murabaha facility - - - - 5% - Eurobonds - 9% - - 11% - Subordinated debt - 8% - - 10% - The sign - in the table above means that the Group does not have the respective assets or liabilities in the corresponding currency. Other price risk. The Group is exposed to the risk of changes in the prices of shares. The limits set by the Board of Directors and the Bank's Limit Committee are applied to manage equity price risk and other price risk. The Bank's Investment Department controls and authorises equity transactions based on set limits. At 31 December 2012, if equity prices at that date had been by 20% (2011: 20%) lower or higher, with all other variables held constant, profit for the year and equity would have been by RR 198 765 thousand (2011: RR 569 228 thousand) lower or higher, mainly as a result of revaluation of corporate shares at fair value through profit or loss. 64

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not match. The Group is exposed to daily calls on its available cash resources from current accounts, maturing deposits, loan draw downs and guarantees. The Group does not maintain cash resources to meet all of these needs as experience shows that a minimum level of reinvestment of maturing funds can be predicted with a high level of certainty. The Group determines day trading instant liquidity, current term liquidity and structural liquidity risk. 66

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) Liquidity risk is also managed through forming and observing liquidity risk limits. Liquidity risk limits include the following structural limits: minimum amount of highly liquid assets; minimum amount of liquid assets (up to 30 days); maximum amount of liabilities payable on demand; maximum amount of net loans in the interbank lending market; maximum amount of own issued notes; maximum amount of the loan portfolio (other than interbank lending); limit on accumulated liquidity imbalance (gap); maximum amount of investments in assets without fixed maturity date and assets of uncertain timing; and limit on mismatch between types of funding sources and types of investments. The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Bank s Treasury, Risk Department, Review and Planning Department, Operational Liquidity Management Committee ( OLMC ), Assets and Liability Committee ( ALC ) and Limit Committee ( LC ). The Treasury Department is responsible for monitoring daily liquidity position, regular liquidity stress testing under a variety of scenarios covering both normal and more severe market conditions and also for forming payment schedules. If case of negative market events the Bank sets more rigorous credit limits on the interbank lending market. As a result, loans are issued only to high liquid banks. The OLMC operates on a daily basis and regulates liquidity risk using internal and external ratios based on the assets-to-liabilities ratio by maturity and payment schedule. The main purpose of the Committee is operational management of the Bank s liquidity and adoption of decisions aimed to maintain liquid assets at the level acceptable for meeting obligations to customers notwithstanding possible changes in external environment. In case of a decrease in liquidity as a result of emergency, the Group has a contingency plan for restoring and maintaining a sufficient and acceptable liquidity level. The ALC determines the medium-term and short-term asset/liability management strategy for maintaining current and long-term liquidity at an acceptable level. The ALC is ultimately responsible for liquidity risk management and reports directly to the Management Board. The Limit Committee sets and regulates the Group s limit policy, including liquidity limits. Liquidity requirements for guarantees and standby letters of credit are considerably less than the amount of the commitment because the Group does not generally expect the third party to draw funds under the agreement. The total outstanding contractual amount of commitments to extend credit does not necessarily represent future cash requirements, since many of these commitments will expire or terminate without being funded. The table below shows liabilities at 31 December 2012 by their remaining contractual maturity. The amounts disclosed in the maturity table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows, including gross finance lease obligations (before deducting future finance charges), gross loan commitments and financial guarantees. Such undiscounted cash flows differ from the amount included in the consolidated statement of financial position because the amount in the consolidated statement of financial position is based on discounted cash flows. 67

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) Financial derivatives are included at the contractual amounts to be paid or received, unless the Group expects to close the derivative position before its maturity date in which case the derivatives are included based on the expected cash flows. For the purposes of the maturity analysis, embedded derivatives are not separated from hybrid (combined) financial instruments. Net settled derivatives are included at the net amounts expected to be paid. The maturity analysis of undiscounted financial liabilities at 31 December 2012 is as follows: Demand and less than 1 month From 1 to 6 months From 6 to 12 months From 12 months to 5 years Over 5 years Total Financial liabilities Due to other banks 4 593 320 22 992 581 10 618 704 4 292 656 1 423 087 43 920 348 Customer accounts 83 825 284 42 138 241 33 516 665 19 353 534 2 920 152 181 753 876 Debt securities in issue 2 198 148 4 509 316 3 811 803 40 378 746 4 500 50 902 513 Eurobonds - 658 942 669 864 17 843 961-19 172 767 Other financial liabilities 700 862 - - - - 700 862 Subordinated debt 734 936-722 953 5 835 553 25 517 062 32 810 504 Financial derivatives with negative fair value 182 4 408 1 778 683 198-689 566 Guarantees 34 551 036 - - - - 34 551 036 Credit related commitments except for guarantees (Note 30) 28 169 445 - - - - 28 169 445 Total potential future payments for financial obligations 154 773 213 70 303 488 49 341 767 88 387 648 29 864 801 392 670 917 68

28 Financial Risk Management (Continued) The matching and/or controlled mismatching of the maturities and interest rates of assets and liabilities is fundamental to the management of the Group. It is unusual for banks ever to be completely matched since business transacted is often of an uncertain term and of different types. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability, but can also increase the risk of losses. The maturities of assets and liabilities and the ability to replace, at an acceptable cost, interest-bearing liabilities as they mature, are important factors in assessing the liquidity of the Group and its exposure to changes in interest and exchange rates. The Group s management believes that in spite of a substantial portion of customers accounts being on demand and less than one month, diversification of these funds by number and type of depositors (including a significant portion of funds attracted from related parties), the Group s relations with the Government of the Republic of Tatarstan, and the past experience of the Group would indicate that these accounts provide a long-term and stable source of funding for the Group. As at 31 December 2012, approximately 28.9% (2011: 23.6%) of customer accounts and debt securities in issue were with related parties. A more detailed information on related party balances is disclosed in Notes 35 and 36. Liquidity requirements for guarantees and standby letters of credit are considerably less than the amount of the commitment because the Group does not generally expect the third party to draw funds under the agreement. The total outstanding contractual amount of commitments to extend credit does not necessarily represent future cash requirements, since many of these commitments will expire or terminate without being funded. The Group constantly monitors the level of current and medium-term liquidity from 1 month up to 1 year and interest rate level for assets and liabilities. In deteriorating conditions for current and medium-term liquidity, mismatch of interest rates, the Group may obtain additional financing from the Central Bank through direct repo transactions and transactions under Regulation of the Bank of Russia No.312-P On the Procedure for Extending Loans Secured by Assets or Guarantees to Credit Institutions by the Bank of Russia No. 312-P of 12 November 2007. The Group may also obtain finance under open credit facilities from other institutions, including Federal Treasury, Vnesheconombank, constituent regions of the Russian Federation and others. To cover long-term liquidity exceeding one year, the Group plans to sell investment property held by the Group. During the period after the reporting date the Group has effectively managed its liquidity position and timely paid all financial liabilities in full when due. 72

29 Management of Capital The Group s objectives when managing capital are (i) to comply with the capital requirements set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, (ii) to safeguard the Group s ability to continue as a going concern and (iii) to maintain a sufficient capital base to achieve a capital adequacy ratio based on the Basel Accord of at least 12%. Compliance with capital adequacy ratios set by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation is monitored monthly, with reports outlining their calculation reviewed and signed by the Bank s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accountant. Other objectives of capital management are evaluated annually. Under the current capital requirements set by the Central Bank of Russia, banks have to maintain a ratio of regulatory capital to risk weighted assets ( statutory capital ratio ) above a prescribed minimum level. The minimum ratio at 31 December 2012 was 10% (2011: 10%). Regulatory capital is based on the Group's reports prepared under Russian accounting standards and comprised RR 50 781 205 thousand at 31 December 2012 (2011: RR 35 646 971 thousand). The Group is also subject to minimum capital requirements established by covenants stated in loan agreements, including capital adequacy levels calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Basel Accord, as defined in the International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards (updated April 1998) and the Amendment to the Capital Accord to incorporate market risks (updated November 2005), commonly known as Basel I. Refer to Notes 18, 28 and 30. 30 Contingencies and Commitments Legal proceedings. From time to time and in the normal course of business, claims against the Group may be received. On the basis of its own estimates and internal professional advice management is of the opinion that no material losses will be incurred in respect of claims and accordingly no provision has been made in these consolidated financial statements. Tax contingencies. Russian tax and customs legislation which was enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period, is subject to varying interpretations when being applied to the transactions and activities of the Group. Consequently, tax positions taken by management and the formal documentation supporting the tax positions may be successfully challenged by relevant authorities. Russian tax administration is gradually strengthening, including the fact that there is a higher risk of review of tax transactions without a clear business purpose or with tax incompliant counterparties. Fiscal periods remain open to review by the authorities in respect of taxes for three calendar years, preceding the year of review. Under certain circumstances reviews may cover longer periods. Amended Russian transfer pricing legislation took effect from 1 January 2012. The new transfer pricing rules appear to be more technically elaborate and, to a certain extent, better aligned with the international transfer pricing principles developed by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The new legislation provides the possibility for tax authorities to make transfer pricing adjustments and impose additional tax liabilities in respect of controlled transactions (transactions with related parties and some types of transactions with unrelated parties), provided that the transaction price is not arm's length. Management believes that its pricing policy is arm's length and it has implemented internal controls to be in compliance with the new transfer pricing legislation. Given that the practice of implementation of the new Russian transfer pricing rules has not yet developed, the impact of any challenge of the Group s transfer prices cannot be reliably estimated; however, it may be significant to the financial conditions and/or the overall operations of the Group. 73

30 Contingencies and Commitments (Continued) Accordingly, as at 31 December 2012 no provision for potential tax liabilities has been recorded (2011: nil). The Group includes several companies incorporated outside of Russia. Tax liabilities of the Group are determined on the assumption that these companies are not subject to Russian profits tax because they do not have a permanent establishment in Russia. This interpretation of relevant legislation may be challenged but currently the impact of any such challenge cannot be reliably estimated currently; however, it may be significant to the financial position and/or the overall operations of the Group. As Russian tax legislation does not provide definitive guidance in certain areas, the Group adopts, from time to time, interpretations of such uncertain areas that reduce the overall tax rate of the Group. While management currently estimates that the tax positions and interpretations that it has taken can probably be sustained, there is a possible risk that outflow of resources will be required should such tax positions and interpretations be challenged by the relevant authorities. The impact of such developments cannot be reliably estimated, however it may be significant in terms of the Group's financial position and/or business activities in general. In addition to the aforementioned issues, the management believes that the Group has possible tax obligations from exposure to other than remote tax risks of RR 375 704 thousand (2011: RR 368 196 thousand). These exposures are estimates that result from uncertainties in interpretation of applicable legislation and related documentation requirements. Management will vigorously defend the entity's positions and interpretations that were applied in determining taxes recognised in these financial statements if these are challenged by the authorities. Therefore, the Group did not create any provision for potential text liabilities as of 31 December 2012 (2011: no provision for potential tax liabilities). Capital expenditure commitments. At 31 December 2012, the Group had no contractual capital expenditure commitments in respect of premises and equipment and in respect of software and other intangible assets. (31 December 2011: no capital expenditure commitments). Operating lease commitments. Where the Group is the lessee, the future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases are as follows: 2012 2011 Not later than 1 year 283 996 215 569 Later than 1 year and not later than 5 years 484 042 349 622 Later than 5 years 21 288 22 658 Total operating lease commitments 789 326 587 849 Compliance with covenants. The Group is subject to certain covenants related primarily to its borrowings. Non-compliance with such covenants may result in penalty sanctions in respect of the Group. The most significant covenants include: To comply with the CBRF s ratios and requirements; To maintain a ratio of regulatory capital to risk weighted assets, based on the Basel Accord, of at least 12%. 74

30 Contingencies and Commitments (Continued) Management believes that the Group was in compliance with the above covenants as at 31 December 2012 and during the year. Credit related commitments. The primary purpose of these instruments is to ensure that funds are available to a customer as required. Guarantees and standby letters of credit, which represent irrevocable assurances that the Group will make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties, carry the same credit risk as loans. Documentary and commercial letters of credit, which are written undertakings by the Group on behalf of a customer authorising a third party to draw drafts on the Group up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions, are collateralised by the underlying shipments of goods to which they relate or cash deposits and, therefore, carry less risk than a direct borrowing. Commitments to extend credit represent unused portions of authorisations to extend credit in the form of loans, guarantees or letters of credit. With respect to credit risk on commitments to extend credit, the Group is potentially exposed to loss in an amount equal to the total unused commitments, if the unused amounts were to be drawn down. However, the likely amount of loss is less than the total unused commitments, as most commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards. The Group monitors the term to maturity of credit related commitments, because longerterm commitments generally have a greater degree of credit risk than shorter-term commitments. Outstanding credit related commitments are as follows: 31 December 2012 31 December 2011 Guarantees issued 34 551 036 20 153 757 Credit line commitments 15 707 018 17 003 827 Unused limits on overdraft loans and loans under limit of indebtedness 12 462 427 10 232 511 Import letters of credit - 47 646 Total credit related commitments 62 720 481 47 437 741 The total outstanding contractual amount of undrawn credit lines, unused limits on overdraft loans and loans under credit limit and letters of credit does not necessarily represent future cash requirements, as these financial instruments may expire or terminate without being funded. Fair value of guarantees issued was RR 70 339 thousand at 31 December 2012 (2011: RR 120 978 thousand). As at 31 December 2012 the Group did not book any provision for credit related commitments (2011: nil). 75

30 Contingencies and Commitments (Continued) Credit related commitments are denominated in currencies as follows: 31 December 2012 31 December 2011 Russian Roubles 61 731 320 45 734 509 US dollars 704 036 711 793 Other 285 125 991 439 Total 62 720 481 47 437 741 Fiduciary assets. These include assets that are held on behalf of the Group in favour of customers and are not assets of the Group. Nominal values disclosed below are normally different from the fair values of respective securities.

31 Transfers of Financial Assets The Group transferred financial assets in transactions that did not qualify for derecognition in the current and prior periods. (a) Transfers that did not qualify for derecognition of the financial asset in its entirety. The Group transferred financial assets in transactions that did not qualify for derecognition in the current and prior periods. Sale and repurchase agreements. The Group had securities at fair value through profit or loss amounting to RR 10 282 189 thousand (31 December 2011: RR 16 230 625 thousand), that were subject to obligation to repurchase for a fixed pre-determined price. The following schedule summarises transfers where the entity continues to recognise all of the transferred financial assets. The analysis is provided by class of financial assets. 31 December 2012 31 December 2011 Repurchase receivables Repurchase receivables Carrying amount of the assets 10 282 189 16 230 625 Carrying amount of the associated liabilities 4 394 908 15 468 122 (b) Transfers that qualified for derecognition of the financial asset in its entirety. The Group transferred financial assets in transactions that qualified for derecognition in the current and prior periods. Disposal of loans. In 2012 and prior periods the Group had loans to legal entities which were transferred under cession agreements in 2012 in the amount of RR 929 620 thousand (2011: RR 2 482 245 thousand). These loans were derecognised in full. Refer to Note 10. In 2012 and prior periods the Group had loans to individuals which were transferred under cession agreements in 2012 in the amount of RR 366 203 thousand (2011: RR 291 389 thousand). These loans were derecognised in full. Refer to Note 10. 77

32 Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by an active quoted market price. The estimated fair values of financial instruments have been determined by the Group using available market information, where it exists, and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, judgement is necessarily required to interpret market data to determine the estimated fair value. The Russian Federation continues to display some characteristics of an emerging market and economic conditions continue to limit the volume of activity in the financial markets. Market quotations may be outdated or reflect distress sale transactions and therefore not represent fair values of financial instruments. Management has used all available market information in estimating the fair value of financial instruments. Financial instruments carried at fair value. Securities at fair value through profit or loss, repurchase receivables and financial derivatives are carried at fair value. Fair values were determined based on quoted market prices except for certain investment securities for which there were no available external independent market price quotations. These securities have been fair valued by the Group on the basis of consideration of other relevant information such as discounted cash flows and financial data of the investees and application of other valuation methodologies. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost which approximates current fair value. Loans and other financial assets carried at amortised cost. The estimated fair value of fixed interest rate instruments is based on estimated future cash flows expected to be received, discounted at current interest rates for new instruments with similar credit risk and remaining maturity. Discount rates used depend on classes of financial instruments, the currency, maturity of the instrument and credit risk of the counterparty. These rates are analysed below: % 2012 2011 Due from other banks 6% p.a. 5% p.a. Loans and advances to customers: Loans to legal entities 9 % p.a. 8 % p.a. Loans to individuals 18 % p.a. 14 % p.a. Liabilities carried at amortised cost. The fair value of floating rate instruments is based on quoted market prices. The estimated fair value of fixed interest rate instruments with stated maturity, for which a quoted market price is not available, was estimated based on cash flows discounted at interest rates for new instruments with similar credit risk and remaining maturity. The fair value of liabilities repayable on demand or after a notice period ( demandable liabilities ) is estimated as the amount payable on demand, discounted from the first date that the amount could be required to be paid. 78

32 Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued) % 2012 2011 Due to other banks 7% p.a. 3% p.a. Customer accounts 9% p.a. 8% p.a. Debt securities in issue 11% p.a. 10% p.a. Eurobonds 9% p.a. 9% p.a. Subordinated debt 8% p.a. 10% p.a. Derivative financial instruments. All derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value as assets when the fair value is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Their fair values are based on observable market prices. Refer to Note 34. Fair values of financial instruments carried at amortised cost are as follows: FINANCIAL ASSETS 2012 2011 Carrying Fair value Carrying value value Fair value Cash and cash equivalents Cash on hand 8 589 891 8 589 891 6 213 394 6 213 394 Cash balances with the CBRF (other than mandatory cash balances) 9 722 539 9 722 539 9 224 168 9 224 168 Settlement accounts with trading systems 11 873 622 11 873 622 1 090 979 1 090 979 Correspondent accounts and overnight placements with other banks 5 817 776 5 817 776 2 419 060 2 419 060 Mandatory cash balances with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation 3 086 031 3 086 031 2 749 010 2 749 010 Due from other banks Current term placements of other banks 3 751 953 3 752 020 3 426 025 3 422 432 Sale and repurchase agreements with other banks 141 954 141 954 - - Loans and advances to customers Corporate loans 68 107 902 68 316 048 69 544 947 70 927 993 Loans to state and public organisations 2 347 180 2 307 832 1 779 111 1 793 504 Loans to small and medium-sized entities 79 507 433 79 449 850 68 507 397 69 952 553 Consumer loans 17 822 715 17 810 053 12 000 226 12 024 668 Mortgage loans 17 917 769 17 905 040 11 497 805 11 521 224 Car loans 4 653 440 4 650 134 3 482 709 3 489 803 Plastic cards 434 886 434 577 113 348 113 579 Reverse sale and repurchase agreements 13 398 988 17 276 686 9 029 292 10 860 254 Other financial assets Receivables 1 272 439 1 272 439 1 540 839 1 540 839 Settlements on conversion operations 795 060 795 060 986 387 986 387 Finance lease receivables 1 173 046 1 173 046 1 016 310 1 016 310 TOTAL FINANCIAL ASSETS CARRIED AT AMORTISED COST 250 414 624 254 374 598 204 621 007 209 346 157 79

32 Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued) For financial instruments carried at fair value, the level in the fair value hierarchy into which the fair values are categorised are as follows: Quoted price in an active market (Level 1) 2012 2011 Valuation Quoted technique price in an with significant active non- market observable (Level 1) inputs (Level 3) Valuation technique with inputs observable in markets (Level 2) Valuation technique with inputs observable in markets (Level 2) Valuation technique with significant nonobservable inputs (Level 3) Securities at fair value through profit or loss Corporate shares 2 893 445-860 335 9 036 636-862 837 Corporate bonds 9 830 325 - - 7 638 077 - - Federal loan bonds 4 068 452 - - 5 329 287 - - Investments in mutual funds - 339 517 - - 381 022 - Global depositary receipts 1 323 001 - - 1 398 557 - - American depositary receipts 20 115 - - 4 366 163 - - Municipal bonds 57 883 - - 1 405 380 - - Corporate Eurobonds 625 302 - - 674 503 Repurchase receivables Corporate shares 2 914 405 - - 2 554 463 - - Corporate bonds 1 213 439 - - 8 870 592 - - Municipal bonds 1 287 646 - - 375 098 - - Federal loan bonds 4 866 699 - - 4 430 472 - - Other financial assets Fair value of derivative financial instruments - 588 - - 8 568 - TOTAL FINANCIAL ASSETS CARRIED AT FAIR VALUE 29 100 712 340 105 860 335 46 079 228 389 590 862 837 Other financial liabilities Fair value of derivative financial instruments - (627 457) - - (363 567) - TOTAL FINANCIAL LIABILITIES CARRIED AT FAIR VALUE - (627 457) - - (363 567) - 81

32 Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued) Management applies judgement in categorising financial instruments using the fair value hierarchy. If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustment, that measurement is a Level 3 measurement. The significance of a valuation input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety. A reconciliation of movements in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy by class of instruments for the year ended 31 December 2012 is as follows: Other securities at fair value through profit or loss Corporate shares Fair value at 1 January 2012 862 837 Acquisition - Disposal (2 502) Fair value at 31 December 2012 860 335 Financial instruments with fair value of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy were represented by unquoted shares of some companies. The Group determined the fair value of these shares by applying valuation methods based on analysis of changes in the fair value of net assets of such companies. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by an active quoted market price. Where quoted market prices are not available, the Group used valuation techniques. The calculation of fair value of financial assets remeasured at fair value through profit or loss availablefor-sale, for Level 3 is made based on the method of discounted cash flows and comparative method. The comparative method is based on comparison of individual financial ratios or multipliers (such as invested capital to net profit, invested capital to equity, activity ratio (PMI), etc.) of the analysed equity investment with financial ratios and multipliers of equity of peers. 33 Presentation of Financial Instruments by Measurement Category Under IAS 39, Financial instruments: recognition and measurement, the Group assigns the following categories to its financial assets: (a) loans and receivables; (b) financial assets available for sale; (c) financial assets held to maturity; and (d) financial assets at fair value through profit and loss account. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss have two subcategories: (i) assets designated as such upon initial recognition, and (ii) those classified as held for trading.

33 Presentation of Financial Instruments by Measurement Category (Continued) As at 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011, all of the Group s financial liabilities other than derivatives were carried at amortised cost. Derivatives belong to the fair value through profit or loss measurement category. 34 Derivative Financial Instruments As of 31 December 2012 and 31 December 2011 all of the Group s financial liabilities except for derivatives were carried at amortised cost. Derivatives belong to the fair value through profit or loss measurement category. Foreign exchange and other derivative financial instruments entered into by the Group are generally traded in an over-the-counter market with professional market counterparties on standardised contractual terms and conditions. Derivatives have potentially favourable (assets) or unfavourable (liabilities) conditions as a result of fluctuations in market interest rates, foreign exchange rates or other variables relative to their terms. The aggregate fair values of derivative financial assets and liabilities can fluctuate significantly from time to time. The table below sets out fair values, at the end of the reporting period, of currencies receivable or payable under foreign exchange forward contracts entered into by the Group. The table reflects gross positions before the netting of any counterparty positions and payments and covers the contracts with settlement dates after the respective reporting date. The contracts are short term in nature. 85
