Message From The Chairperson01 Message From The Chairperson 01

On behalf of the Board of Directors and the Bank's Executive Management, I am delighted and honored to present the Bank’s financial results for the financial year 2017-2018. Throughout the year, the Bank continued its outstanding performance while maintaining growth in core and operating profits; despite some economic challenges faced by the global economy in general, and Egypt in particular.

While the global economy is gaining strength and the current estimates show a global growth in the second half of 2017 reaching 3.8% for the whole year, being the highest growth rate since 2011, further growth to 3.9% in 2018 and 2019 is expected. The Egyptian economy is at an important turning point facing massive challenges.

This drove the Egyptian government to expedite the implementation of a structural reform package to narrow the imbalances in the way the financial policies are dealing with improving growth rates; the most important being the adoption of an expansionary financial policy through launching financial stimulus packages to raise the productivity of the Egyptian economy in parallel with adjusting the State general budget, by reducing government spending, rationalizing subsidies, increasing competitiveness and removing the restrictions on the Egyptian economic potentials.

Concurrently, the Egyptian government has embarked on a number of mega development projects, in addition to enhancing the role of the private sector and supporting public-private partnerships. Moreover, the government supported financing SMEs considering they are the main engine economic growth.

Also, addressing social justice to reduce the geographic gap in the human development index, raising the per capita GDP, optimizing the social security system and developing the social safety nets to accommodate the poor and vulnerable groups.

In view of the above, Export Development Bank of Egypt (EBE) achieved an increase in its profits owing to the prudent management of surrounding risks and effective Asset Liability Management (ALM).

Accordingly, the Bank's net profit for the financial year 2017-2018 reached EGP 703 million, with an increase of 40% equal to EGP 201 million over the previous financial year. Also, net income from fees and commissions increased from EGP 233 million on 30 June 2017 to EGP 293.7 million on 30 June 2018 at a growth rate of 26% Year-on-Year. The total loans and facilities portfolio increased by EGP 5.9 billion to reach EGP 21.4 billion in 30 June 2018, at a growth rate of 37.9% Year-on-Year. The customer deposits portfolio continued to grow by EGP 7.2 billion on 30 June 2018, reaching EGP 34.7 billion at a growth rate of 26% Year-on-Year.

It is worth mentioning that the Bank increased its capital in March 2018 by a total of EGP 1 billion; accordingly, the total capital amounts to EGP 2.728 billion. The key financial indicators continue to reflect the Bank's strong performance, where Return on Equity (ROE) reached 18% in June 2018 compared to 20.3% in June 2017, Year-on-Year, while the Return on Assets (ROA) reached 1.6% in June 2018 compared to 1.5% in June 2017, Year-on-Year, also the rate of Return on Capital (ROC) reached 25.8% in June 2018 compared to 34.9% in June 2017, Year-on-Year. The strong results achieved this year evidenced the success of the Bank's initiatives to increase the operating income and mitigate the risks in the target markets.

During the financial year, the Bank managed to maintain a stable and diversified funding base. Although market conditions still face significant challenges, yet the Bank will continue to focus on selective loan growth, create financing opportunities for exporters, support exporters and open new markets, especially in Africa.

The next financial year 2018-2019 will witness the continued achievements of the Bank's Strategy 2017-2022; focusing on the Bank’s support of Egypt’s economic growth; development of Egyptian exports by financing mega and national projects, the strong expansion in procuring the financing needs of SMEs, coupled with offering retail banking services, in a comprehensive and consistent framework guaranteeing the highest Return on Equity.

Finally, on behalf of the Board of Directors and myself, I would like to thank our shareholders for their continuous trust. Also, the strong performance achieved this year couldn't have been possible without the support and confidence of our customers and partners in success; the dedication and excellence of our team.

Looking forward to a year full of achievements and more progress.

GLOBAL ECONOMY: Below is exposed the most important indicators included in the International Monetary Fund IMF report - January 2018 - on the global economic prospects:- The global economic activity is still growing stronger as current estimates show a global growth in the second half of 2017 to reach 3.8%, which is the highest rate achieved since 2011. It is expected for growth to achieve more increase and reach 3.9% in years 2018 and 2019.

- Growth surprises were noticeable in Europe and Asia in particular, but included also a wide range of countries, as the results of the Group of Advanced Economies, Emerging Markets and Developing Economies were 0.1 percentage points higher compared to the fall issued forecasts. Overall growth forecasts remained unchanged for emerging markets and developing economies in 2018 and 2019, with clear differences in the expected forecasts for different regions. Growth forecasts for other developed economies also increased in 2018 and 2019, mainly due to growth expansion in developed Asian economies which are particularly sensitive to global trade and investment prospects. Growth forecasts for Japan increased in 2018 and 2019 in line with the higher external demand forecast and the supplementary budget for 2018.

- Growth rates also witnessed an expected rise of many Euro zone economies, especially Germany, Italy and the Netherlands, reflecting an increase in domestic demand and a rise of external demand.

- According to the report on Regional Economic Outlook in the Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan of May 2018, the expected improvement in the euro area is a positive issue for the Middle East, North Africa and Afghanistan, especially the oil-importing countries, which will benefit from their increased exports. The region is also expected to benefit from a slight improvement in the expected prospects for China, which is a key trading partner for the region. However, the global outlook also implies an increase in interest rates on global trade while developed economies are moving back to normal monetary policies after a period of exceptional policies, and this could give rise to an increase of weaknesses of public finance and rigidity of credit conditions in the region, especially if the rigidity of the risks of the global financial situation have exceeded expectations.

LOCAL ECONOMY:Below is presented the most important indicators included in the monthly report of the Ministry of Finance for June 2018.- The Egyptian economy is going through an important slope with many challenges, which prompted the Egyptian government to accelerate the implementation of a package of structural reforms to address the imbalances in the manner of using financial policies while achieving better growth rates. The most important of these is the adoption of an expansionary financial policy through the initiation of financial stimulus packages to raise the productivity of the Egyptian economy in parallel with an action to control the state general budget by reducing government expenditures, decreasing subsidies, increasing competitiveness and the removal of restrictions on the potential of the Egyptian economy. In parallel, the Egyptian government has embarked on a number of huge development projects as well as promoting the role of the private sector and supporting private-public partnerships to provide financing tools for small and medium-sized companies as being the main engine of the economy structure, as well as achieving social justice, and raising the share per capita in the Gross Domestic Product, enhancing the efficiency of the social protection system and developing the social safety networks to integrate needy and vulnerable communities.

- The Egyptian government adopts an economic vision consisting of the fact that "the Egyptian economy is a disciplined market economy characterized by macroeconomic stability, by competitiveness, diversity, relying on knowledge, and playing an active role in the global economy, capable of adaptation to global changes, and maximizing value added, providing employment opportunities, increasing the individual share of the gross domestic product to reach the ranks of middle-income countries by 2030” (Government Program, March 2016).

- In the context of the comprehensive reform program adopted by Egypt since November 2016, in cooperation with the International Monetary Fund and international partners, the Egyptian economy is witnessing many important positive developments, indicating a starting improvement of the short and medium term economic situation and achieving improvement of the living standards of the Egyptian citizen, and increase of employment rates and creation of real jobs opportunities, and attract many foreign investments, which in turn led to the improvement of a number of macroeconomic performance indicators.

As a confirmation of the above and in a noticeable development, the organization of credit ratings (Moody’s) raised the future prospects for Egypt to positive and confirmed the rating level at B3.- Moody's said that the change of the vision of the future into positive is due to the continued structural improvement in the budget and balance of current transactions and pointed out that there are signs that reforms in the business environment pave the way to sustainable and comprehensive growth that may improve competitiveness in Egypt.

- It also noted that the risks of refinancing remain a major challenge to Egypt's credit rating in the light of a "turbulent" financial environment, except that the significant progress made by the Egyptian government in implementing the reforms agreed with the International Monetary Fund has added some financial stability.

- It also stressed that political stability has been achieved, and is likely to continue, which increases the likelihood of continuing Egyptian public policy in its direction.

- “Moody's” International rating agency welcomed the decision of the new Egyptian government to raise fuel prices by percentages ranging between 35% and 66.6% as part of the reform program agreed with the International Monetary Fund.

- The Foundation said that this step will help the government achieve its goal of reducing the budget deficit to about 8.4% of GDP in the financial year 2018/2019, compared to 9.8% in the current financial year.

And that the decision to increase fuel prices is positive for the credit rating of Egypt because it will contribute to reduce the fuel subsidy bill to 1.7% of GDP in the next financial year, compared to 2.5% expected by the government in the current financial year, and drops the public subsidy bill from 7.5% of the Gross Domestic Product expected during 2017/2018 to 6.5% in the next financial year.

SMALL AND MEDIUM SIZE ENTERPRISES:SMEs are considered the veins of heavy industries as they are the main providers of raw materials required for the production process of large corporates (every large corporate needs at least 20 SMEs to work with) which lessens the burden put on large corporates concerning their needs of foreign currency required to import raw materials. SMEs gained their importance from their direct effect on GDP, average per-capita income and increase of job opportunities, which have a positive effect on the countries’ economic growth. SMEs represent two third of countries’ economic activities, 90% of the total operating companies in most of world economies. It is worth mentioning that all well-known international companies started as small enterprises then developed into large corporates over the years.

Due to the great importance of SMEs and their role in economic growth, all governmental institutions in Egypt and CBE have been concerned about the growth of such sector throughout the previous years which in turn encouraged banks to expand in financing this sector through the establishment of separate divisions specialized in financing this type of enterprises. In addition to that, the CBE set a unified definition for SMEs among all banks in order to provide an accurate and adequate database available for all banks which will support them to do their role in financing SMEs, in addition to launching initiatives to encourage Egyptian banks to provide funds to SMEs with lower interest rates to finance their working capital and capital expenditures.

Consequently, EBE had the leading position among other banks to tap SMEs sector through the establishment of a separate division specialized in financing SMEs. Thus, EBE signed an agreement in 2005 with the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and started the actual work on 1/7/2005.

As per EBE’s strategy to support small and medium enterprises and specially finance SMEs exporters, EBE signed a protocol on May 2017 with the Export Development Fund in order to finance exporters’ subsidy dues to provide the exporters with adequate finance, which in turn will increase their competitiveness as well as the Bank’s clients’ base.

Furthermore, lately, EBE started offering credit facilities to microfinance institutions that finance micro enterprises in order to combat poverty and to provide them with financial services, which contribute to the economic and social development of the country. This is due to EBE’s faith and desire to support the country’s current policies regarding micro, small and medium enterprises in order for the Bank to have an active role in society.

All the above reflected positively on EBE’s total SME portfolio which reached an amount of EGP 4,125 million as of 30/6/2018 versus EGP 2,714 million as of 30/6/2017 with an increase of 52% knowing that the increase is distributed among various economic sectors.

2.3- Segment reportingA business segment is a group of assets and operations related to providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment that are subject to risks and returns different from those of segments operating in other economic environments.

2.4- Foreign currency translation(a) Functional and presentation currencyThe financial statements are presented in Egyptian pound, which is the Bank’s functional and presentation currency.

(b) Transactions and balances in foreign currencies- The Bank hold accounts in Egyptian pounds and prove transactions in other currencies during the financial year on the basis of prevailing exchange rates at the date of the transaction, and re-evaluation of balances of assets and liabilities of other monetary currencies at the end of the financial period on the basis of prevailing exchange rates at that date, and is recognized in the list gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and the differences resulting from the assessment within the following items:

• Net trading income or net income from financial instruments classified at fair value through profit and loss of assets / liabilities held for trading or those classified at fair value through profit and loss according to type.

• Shareholders’ equity of financial derivatives which are eligible qualified hedge for cash flows or eligible for qualified hedge for net investment.

• Other operating revenues (expenses) for the rest of the items.

- Changes in the fair value of monetary financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies and classified as available for sale investments (debt instruments) are analyzed into valuation differences

76 772017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

resulting from changes in amortized cost of the instrument, translation differences arising from changes in foreign exchange rates and differences resulting from changes in the fair value of the instrument. Valuation differences are recognized in profit or loss to the extent they relate to changes in amortized cost and changes in exchange rates which are reported in the income statement under the line items revenues from loans and similar activities’ and ‘other operating revenues (expenses)’ respectively. The remaining differences resulting from changes in fair value of the instrument are carried to ‘reserve for cumulative change in fair value of available for sale investments’ in the equity section.

- Valuation differences resulting from measuring the non-monetary financial instruments at fair value include gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of those items. Revaluation differences arising from the measurement of equity instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in the income statement, whereas the revaluation differences arising from the measurement of equity instruments classified as available for sale financial investments are carried to ‘reserve for cumulative change in fair value of available for sale investments’ in the equity section.

2.5 Financial assetsThe Bank classifies its financial assets in the following categories:Financial assets classified as at fair value through profits or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity financial assets, and available for sale financial assets. The Bank’s classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition.

(a) Financial assets classified at fair value through profit or lossThis category has two sub-categories: financial assets held for trading, and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.

- A financial asset is classified as held for trading if it is acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term or if it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedging instruments.

- Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss when:

• Doing so significantly reduces measurement inconsistencies that would arise if the related derivatives were treated as held for trading and the underlying financial instruments were carried at amortized cost for loans and advances to customers or banks and debt securities in issue.

• Certain investments, such as equity investments, are managed and evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy and reported to key management personnel on that basis are designated at fair value through profit and loss.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

• Financial instruments, such as debt securities held, containing one or more embedded derivatives significantly modify the cash flows, are designated at fair value through profit and loss.

- Profits and losses resulted from changes in the fair value of the financial derivatives which are managed in conjunction with the assets and liabilities classified at inception fair value through profit and loss are recorded in the income statement within “net income from financial instruments classified at inception at fair value through profit and loss” item.

- Any derivative from the financial instruments group evaluated at fair value through profit and loss is not to be reclassified during the year of holding it or during its validity period. In addition, any instrument from financial instruments group evaluated at fair value through profit and loss is not to be reclassified if the mentioned instrument has been allocated by the Bank at initial recognition as an instrument to be evaluated at fair value through profit and loss.

(b) Loans and receivablesLoans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, other than: (a) those that the Bank intends to sell immediately or in the short term, which are classified as held for trading, or those that the Bank upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through profit or loss; (b) those that the Bank upon initial recognition designates as available for sale; or (c) those for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration.

(c) Held-to-maturity financial investmentsHeld-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Bank’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. If the Bank were to sell a significant amount of held to-maturity assets, the entire category would be reclassified as available for sale unless in the necessary cases.

(d) Available-for-sale financial investmentsAvailable-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets with intention to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices.

The following is applied to financial assets- Regular-way purchases and sales of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity and available for sale are recognized on trade-date – the date on which the Bank commits to purchase or sell the asset.

- Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit and loss are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement.

- Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or where the Bank has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are derecognized when they are extinguished − that is, when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.

78 792017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

- Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

- Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they arise. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized directly in equity, until the financial asset is derecognized or impaired. At this time, the accumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is recognized in profit or loss.

- Interest calculated using the effective interest method and foreign currency gains and losses on monetary assets classified as available for sale are recognized in the income statement. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognized in the income statement when the Bank’s right to receive payment is established.

- The fair values of quoted investments in active markets are based on current bid prices. If there is no active market for a financial asset, or no current demand prices available the Bank establishes fair value using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants If the Bank had been unable to estimate the fair value of equity instruments classified available for sale, value is measured at cost less any impairment in value.

- The Bank reclassify the financial asset which classified as a financial instruments available for sale, which left the definition of loans and debts (bonds or loans), to be classified to the group of loans and receivables or financial assets held to maturity - all as the case - when available Bank has the intent and ability to hold these financial assets in the foreseeable future or until maturity and reclassification to be booked by fair value at reclassifications date, and not process any profits or losses on those assets that have been recognized previously in equity and in the following manner:

1 - In case of reclassification of financial asset, which has a fixed maturity are amortized gains or losses over the remaining life of the investment retained until the maturity date in a manner effective yield is consumed any difference between the value on the basis of amortized cost and value on an accrual basis over the remaining life of the financial asset using the effective yield method, and in the case of the decay of the value of the financial asset is later recognition of any gain or loss previously recognized directly in equity in the profits and losses.

2 - In the case of financial asset which has no fixed maturity continue to profit or loss in equity until the sale of the asset or to dispose of it, then be recognized in the profit and loss In the case of erosion of the value of the financial asset is later recognition of any gain or loss previously recognized directly within equity in the profits and losses.

- If the Bank to adjust its estimates of payments or receipts are the settlement of the carrying amount of the financial asset (or group of financial assets) to reflect the actual cash inflows and the adjusted estimates to be recalculated book value and then calculates the present value of estimated future cash flows at the effective yield of the financial instrument and is recognized settlement recognized as income or expense in the profit and loss.

- In all cases, if the Bank re-tab financial asset in accordance with what is referred to the Bank at a later date to increase its estimate of the proceeds of future cash result of the increase will be recovered from the cash receipts, is the recognition of the impact of this increase in settlement of the interest rate effective from the date of change in the estimate and not in settlement of the balance of the original notebook in the history of change in the estimate.

2.6- Offsetting financial instrumentsFinancial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

And the clauses of agreements to buy treasury bills with a commitment to re-sale agreements and sale of treasury bills with a commitment to re-purchase on a net basis within the balance sheet item, treasury bills and other government papers.

2.7- Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting- Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active markets, including recent market transactions, and valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models and options pricing models, as appropriate. All derivatives are carried as assets when fair value is positive and as liabilities when fair value is negative.

- Embedded derivatives, such as the conversion option in a convertible bond, are treated as separate derivatives when their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contract, provided that the host contract is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss as part of “net trading income”. Embedded derivatives are not split if the Bank chooses to designate the entire hybrid contact as at fair value through profit or loss.

-The accounting treatment used to recognize changes in fair value of derivatives depends on whether or not the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument under hedge accounting rules and on the nature of the hedged item. The Bank designates certain derivatives as either:

• Hedges of the fair value of recognized assets or liabilities or firm commitments (fair value hedge);

• Hedging relating to future cash flows attributable to a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction (cash flow hedge).

• Hedging for net investment in foreign operations relating to future cash flows attributable to a recognized (net investment hedge).

- Hedge accounting is used for derivatives designated in a hedging relationship when the criteria are met.

- The Bank documents, at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedged items and hedging instruments, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Bank also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of hedged items.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

2.7.1- Fair value hedgeChanges in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognized in profit or loss immediately, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps and the changes in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the ‘net interest income’. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the currency swaps are recognized in the ‘net trading income’. Any ineffectiveness is recognized in profit or loss in ‘net trading income’.

When the hedging instrument no longer qualified for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the book value of a hedged item is amortized which are accounted for using the amortized cost method, by charging to the profit and loss to the maturity. The adjustments made to the book value of the hedged equity instrument remains in the equity section until being excluded.

2.7.2- Cash flow hedgeThe effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and effective for cash flow hedge shall be recognized in equity while changes in fair value relating to the ineffective portion shall be recognized in the income statement in “net trading income”.Amounts accumulated in equity are transferred to income statement in the relevant periods when the hedged item affects the income statement. The effective portion of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps and options are reported in “net trading income”.

When a hedged item becomes due or is sold or if hedging instrument no longer qualifies for hedge accounting requirements, gains or losses that have been previously accumulated in equity remain in equity and shall only be recognized in profit or loss when the forecast transaction ultimately occurs. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur any related cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in equity shall be reclassified immediately to income statement. If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item that is measured at amortized cost is amortized to profit or loss over the period to maturity.

2.7.3- Net investment hedgeAccounting for net investment hedge is the same for cash flows hedge. Profit or loss from hedging instrument related to the effective portion of the hedge to be recognized in Equity, while it is recognized in the income statement directly for hedging instrument not related to the effective portion. Accumulated profit or loss in equity to be transferred to the income statement upon disposal of foreign transactions.

2.7.4- Derivatives that do not qualify for hedgeaccountingInterest on and changes in fair value of any derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting is recognized immediately in the income statement in “net trading income” line item. However, gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are managed in conjunction with designated financial assets or financial liabilities are included in “net income from financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss”.

2.8- Interest income and expenseInterest income and expense for all interest-bearing financial instruments, except for those classified as held for trading or designated as at fair value through profit or loss, are recognized within ‘interest income’ and ‘interest expense’ in the income statement using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Bank estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment options) but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts.

When loans or debts are classified as non-performing or impaired, related interest income are not recognized but rather, are carried off balance sheet in statistical records and are recognized as revenues on the cash basis as follows:

1- When collected and after recovery of all arrears for retail loans, personal loans, real estate loans for personal housing and loans to small business.

2- For corporate loans, interest income is also recognized on the cash basis, according to which interest earned during the periods subsequent to reschedule agreements does not start to accrete on the loan principal until the Bank collects 25% of the rescheduled installments and after payments of the installments continue to be regular for at least one year. if the customer is always paying at his due dates the interest calculated is added to the loan balance which makes revenues (interest on rescheduling without deficits) without interests aside before rescheduling which is avoiding revenues except after paying all the loan balance in the balance sheet before rescheduling.

2.9 - Fees and commissions incomeFees and commissions charged by the Bank for servicing a loan are recognized as revenue as the services are provided. Recognition of such fees and commission in profit or loss ceases when a loan becomes non-performing or is impaired in which case fees and commission income is rather marginalized and carried off the balance sheet. Recognition of such fees and commissions as revenues continues on the cash basis when the relevant interest income on the financial instrument is recognized since they are generally treated as an adjustment to the effective interest rate on the financial asset.

If it is probable that the Bank will enter into a specific lending arrangement, the commitment fee received is regarded as compensation for an ongoing involvement with the acquisition of a financial instrument and, together with the related transaction costs, is deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the effective interest rate. If the commitment expires without the Bank making the loan, the fee is recognized as revenue on expiry.

A syndication fee received by the Bank that arranges a loan and retains no part of the loan package for itself (or retains a part at the same effective interest rate for comparable risk as other participants) is compensation for the service of syndication. Such a fee is recognized as revenue when the syndication has been completed.

82 832017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

Fees and commissions resulting from direct negotiations or participation in such negotiations for the benefit of or on behalf of another party, such as those earned on the allotment of shares or other financial assets to a client or acquisition or disposal of entities for a client, are recognized as revenue when the specific transaction has been completed.

Administrative and other services fees are recognized as income on a time proportionate basis over the lifetime of the service.

Fees charged for financial planning services and custodian services provided over long periods are recognized as income over the period during which the service is rendered.

2.10- Dividend incomeDividends are recognized in the income statement when the Bank’s right to receive payment is established.

2.11- Purchase and resale agreements, sale and repurchase agreementsThe financial instruments sold, subject to repurchase agreements, are reported as additions to the balance of treasury bills and other governmental notes in the assets side at the balance sheet, whereas the liability (purchase and resale agreement) is reported in the balance sheet as a deduction therefrom. Difference between the sale price and repurchase price is recognized as a return throughout the period of the arrangement using the effective interest rate method.

2.12- Impairment of financial assets(a) Assets carried at amortized costThe Bank assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. The criteria that the Bank uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include:• Cash flow difficulties experienced by the borrower (for example, equity ratio, net income percentage of sales);• Breach of loan covenants or conditions;• Initiation of bankruptcy proceedings;• Deterioration of the borrower’s competitive position;• The Bank for reasons of economic or legal financial difficulties of the borrower by granting concessions may not agree with the Bank granted in normal circumstances;• Deterioration in the value of collateral;• Downgrading below investment grade level.The objective evidence of impairment loss for group of financial assets is the clear data indicate to a decline can be measured in future cash flows expected from this group since its initial recognition, although not possible to determine the decrease of each asset separately, for example increasing the number of failures in payment for one of the banking products.

The estimated period between a losses occurring and its identification is determined by local management for each identified portfolio. In general, the periods used vary between three months and 12 months.

The Bank first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant and in this field the following are considered.

- If the Bank determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists 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 according to historical default ratios.

- Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

- If no impairment losses result from the previous assessment of impairment in this case the asset included in a collective assessment of impairment.

The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognized in the income statement.

If a loan or held-to-maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract when there is objective evidence for asset impairment. As a practical expedient, the Bank may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price. The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of a collateralized 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.

For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics (i.e., on the basis of the Group’s grading process that considers asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors). 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.

For the purposes of evaluation of impairment for a group of a financial assets according to historical default ratios 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 in the Bank and historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the Bank. Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect the period on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the effects of conditions in the historical period that do not currently exist.Estimates of changes in future cash flows for groups of assets should reflect and be directionally consistent with changes in related observable data from period to period (for example, changes in unemployment rates, property prices, payment status, or other factors indicative of changes in the probability of losses in the Bank and their magnitude). The methodology and assumptions used for estimating future cash flows are reviewed regularly by the Bank.

(b) Assets classified as available for saleThe Bank assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets classify under available for sale or held to maturity is impaired. In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired.

The Decrease Consider significant cause it become 10% From cost of book value and the decrease consider to be extended if it continue for period more than 9 months, and if the mentioned evidences become available then the accumulated loss to be post from the equity and disclosed at the income statement, impairment losses recognized in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.

2.13- Real Estate InvestmentsThe real estate investments represent lands and buildings owned by the Bank In order to obtain rental returns or capital gains and therefore does not include real estate assets which the Bank exercised its work through or those that have owned by the bank as settlement of debts. The accounting treatment is the same used with fixed assets.

2.14- Intangible assets 2.14.1- SoftwareExpenditure on upgrade and maintenance of computer programs is recognized as an expense in the income Statement in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditures directly incurred in connection with specific software are recognized as intangible assets if they are controlled by the bank and when it is probable that they will generate future economic benefits that exceed its cost within more than one year.

Direct costs include the will generate future economic benefits that exceed its cost within more than one year. Direct costs include the cost of the staff involved in upgrading the software in addition to a reasonable portion of relative overheads. Upgrade costs are recognized and added to the original cost of the software when it is likely that such costs will increase the efficiency or enhance the performance of the computers software beyond its original specification Cost of computer software recognized as an asset shall be amortized over the period of expected benefits which shall not exceed three years.

2.14.2- Other intangible assets Other intangible assets represent intangible assets other than software programs (they include but not limited to trademark, licenses, and benefits of rental contracts). The other intangible assets are recorded at their acquisition cost and are amortized on the straight-line method or based on economic benefits expected from these assets over their estimated useful life. Concerning the assets which do not have a finite useful life, they are not subject to amortization they are annually assessed for impairment, while value of impairment (if any) is charged to the income statement.

2.15- Fixed AssetsLands and buildings are mainly represented in head office, branches and offices premises. All fixed assets are disclosed at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The historical cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisitions of the fixed assets’ items.

Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognized separately, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance expenses are recognized in profit or loss within “other operating costs” line item during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of other fixed assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

The residual value and useful lives of the fixed assets are reviewed on the each balance sheet date and they are adjusted whenever it is necessary. Depreciated assets are reviewed for purposes of determining extent of impairment when an event or change in conditions occurs suggesting that the book value may not be recovered. Consequently, the book value of the asset is reduced immediately to the asset’s net realizable value in case increasing the book value over the net realizable value.

The net realizable value represents the net selling value of the asset or its utilization value whichever is greater. Gains and losses from the disposal of fixed assets are determined by comparing the net proceeds at book value. Gains (losses) are included within other operating income (expenses) in the income statement.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

2.16 - Impairment of non-financial assetsAssets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

2.17- Leases(a) Being lesseeLease payments made under operating leases, net of any discounts received from the lessor, are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

(b) Being lesserAssets leased out under operating lease contracts are reported as part of the fixed assets in the balance sheet and are depreciated over the expected useful lives of the assets, on the same basis as other property assets. Lease rental income is recognized net of any discounts granted to the lessee, using the straight line method over the contract term.

2.18- Cash and cash equivalentsFor the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise balances with less than three months’ maturity from the date of acquisition, They include cash and balances due from Central Bank of Egypt (other than those under the mandatory reserve), balances due from banks, treasury bills and other governmental notes.

2.19- Other ProvisionsProvisions for restructuring costs and legal claims are recognized when: the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. Provisions which negated the purpose of wholly or partly repaid within the item other operating income (expense).

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation which become due after one year from the financial statement date using appropriate rate for

the due date (without being affected by effective tax rate) which reflect time value of money, and if the due date is less than one year we calculate the estimated value of obligation but if it have significant impact then it calculated using the current value.

2.20- Financial GuaranteesA financial guarantee contract is a contract issued by the Bank as security for loans or debit current accounts due from its clients to other entities that requires the Bank to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. These financial guarantees are presented to the banks, corporations and other entities on behalf of the Bank’s clients. When a financial guarantee is recognized initially, the Bank shall measure it at its fair value that is directly attributable to the issue of such financial guarantee.

The amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, cumulative amortization of security fees recognized in the income statement using the straight-line method over the term of the guarantee and The best estimate for the payments required to settle any financial obligation resulting from the financial guarantee at the balance sheet date Such estimates are made based on experience in similar transactions and historical losses as supported by management judgment. Any increase in the obligations resulting from the financial guarantee, shall be recognized within other operating income (costs) in the income statement.

2.21- Employees’ benefits2.21.1- Pension obligationsThe Bank has employees insurance fund, it was founded at the first of July 2000 under the law of 54 for the year 1975 and its executive regulations for the purpose of granting insurance and compensation benefits for the members. This fund rules and modifications are applied to all the bank staff in the head office and its branches in Arab Republic of Egypt.

The Bank is committed to lead to the fund monthly and annual subscriptions in accordance with the Rules of the Fund and its amendments, and there are no obligations to the Bank following the payment of additional contributions. Contributions are recognized in expenses of employee benefits when due. The recognition of contributions paid in advance as an asset to the extent that its payment to the reduction of future payments or cash refund.

2.22- Income taxesIncome tax on the profit or loss for the year includes each of year tax and deferred tax and is recognized in the income statement except for income tax relating to items of equity that are recognized directly in equity.

Income tax is recognized based on net taxable profit using the tax rates applicable at the date of the balance sheet in addition to tax adjustments for previous years.

Deferred taxes arising from temporary time differences between the book value of assets and liabilities are recognized in accordance with the principles of accounting and value according to the foundations of the tax, this is determining the value of deferred tax on the expected manner to realize or settle the values of assets and liabilities, using tax rates applicable at the date of the balance sheet.

88 892017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

Deferred tax assets of the Bank recognized when there is likely to be possible to achieve profits subject to tax in the future to be possible through to use that asset, and is reducing the value of deferred tax assets with part of that will not come from tax benefit expected during the following years, that in the case of expected high benefit tax, deferred tax assets will increase within the limits of the above reduced.

2.23- BorrowingBorrowing is recognized initially at fair value net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost, any difference between proceeds net of transaction costs and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

2.24- Capital2.24.1- Capital issuance costCost of issuance of new shares, issuance of shares to effect an acquisition, or issue of share options, net of tax benefits, are reported a deduction from equity.

2.24.2- DividendsDividends are recognized when the general assembly of shareholders approves them. Dividends include the employees’ profit share and the board of directors’ remuneration as prescribed by the Bank’s articles of association and the corporate law.

2.24.3- Treasury sharesIn case of purchasing treasury stocks the purchased amount is deducted from shareholders’ equity till its cancellation and in case of selling or reissuing these stocks all collected amounts will be added to shareholders’ equity.

2.25- Trust activitiesThe bank practices trust activities that result in ownerships or management of assets on behalf of individuals, trusts, and retirement benefit plans. These assets and related income are excluded from the Bank’s separate financial statements, as they are assets not owned by the Bank.

2.26- Comparatives figuresComparative figures are reclassified, where necessary, to conform with changes in the current year presentation.

3- Financial risk managementThe Bank’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks and those activities involve the analysis,

evaluation, acceptance and management of some degree of risk or combination of risks. Taking risk is core to the financial business, and the operational risks are an inevitable consequence of being in business. The Bank’s aim is therefore to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and return and minimize potential adverse effects on the Bank’s financial performance. And the most important types of financial risks are credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and other operating risks. Also market risk includes exchange rate risk, rate of return risk and other prices risks.

The Bank’s risk management policies are designed to identify and analyses these risks, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor the risks and adherence to limits by means of reliable and up-to-date information systems. The Bank regularly reviews its risk management policies and systems to reflect changes in markets, products and emerging best practice.

Risk management is carried out by a risk department under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Bank Treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Bank’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments. In addition, credit risk management is responsible for the independent review of risk management and the control environment.

3.1- Credit riskThe Bank takes on exposure to credit risk, which is the risk that counterparty will cause a financial loss for the Bank by failing to discharge an obligation. Management therefore carefully manages its exposure to credit risk. Credit exposures arise principally in loans and advances, debt securities and other bills.

There is also credit risk in off-balance sheet financial arrangements such as loan commitments. The credit risk management and control are centralized in a credit risk management team in Bank Treasury and reported to the Board of Directors and head of each business unit regularly.

3.1.1- Credit risk measurement(a) Loans and advances to banks and customersTo measure credit risk related to loans and advances extended to banks and customers, the Bank examines the following three components:

- Probability of default of the customer or others in fulfilling their contractual obligations.

- The current position and the likely expected future development from which the bank can conclude the balance exposed to default (exposure at default).

- Loss given default.

The daily activities of the Bank’s business involves of measurement for credit risk which reflect the expected loss (The Expected Loss Model) required by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The operating measures may interfere with the impairment charge according to the Egyptian Accounting Standard no. (26), which depends on losses realized at the balance sheet’s date (realized losses models) and not on expected losses.

90 912017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

The Bank assesses the probability of default of individual counterparties using internal rating tools tailored to the various categories of counterparty. They have been developed internally and combine statistical analysis with credit officer judgment and are validated, where appropriate.Clients of the Bank are segmented into four rating classes.

The Bank’s rating scale, which is shown below, reflects the range of default probabilities defined for each rating class. This means that, in principle, exposures migrate between classes as the assessment of their probability of default changes. The rating tools are kept under review and upgraded as necessary. The Bank regularly validates the performance of the rating and their predictive power with regard to default events.

Bank’s internal ratings scale:

And the loans expose to default depend on the banks expectation for the outstanding amounts when default occur.Example, as for a loan position is the nominal value while for commitments the Bank enlists all already drawn amounts besides these amounts expected to be withdrawn until the date of default, if it happens.Loss given default or loss severity represents the Bank expectation of the extent of loss on a claim should default occur. It is expressed as percentage loss per unit of exposure and typically varies by type of counterparty, type and seniority of claim and availability of collateral or other credit mitigation.

(b)- Debt instruments and treasury and other billsFor debt instruments and bills, external rating such as Standard & Poor’s rating or their equivalents are used by bank Treasury for managing of the credit risk exposures, and if this rating is not available, then other ways similar to those used with the credit customers are uses. The investments in those securities and bills are viewed as a way to gain a better credit quality mapping and maintain a readily available source to meet the funding requirement at the same time.

3.1.2- Risk limit control and mitigation policiesThe Bank manages, limits and controls concentrations of credit risk wherever they are identified − in particular, to individual counterparties and banks, and to industries and countries.

The Bank structures the levels of credit risk it undertakes by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted in relation to one borrower, or groups of borrowers, and to geographical and industry segments. Such risks are monitored on a revolving basis and subject to an annual or more frequent review, when considered necessary. Limits on the level of credit risk by individual, counterparties, product, and industry sector and by country are approved quarterly by the Board of Directors.

The exposure to any one borrower including banks and brokers is further restricted by sub-limits covering on- and off-balance sheet exposures, and daily delivery risk limits in relation to trading items such as

forward foreign exchange contracts. Actual exposures against limits are monitored daily.Exposure to credit risk is also managed through regular analysis of the ability of borrowers and potential borrowers to meet interest and capital repayment obligations and by changing these lending limits where appropriate.Some other specific control and mitigation measures are outlined below:

(a) CollateralThe Bank employs a range of policies and practices to mitigate credit risk. The most traditional of these is the taking of security for funds advances, which is common practice. The Bank implements guidelines on the acceptability of specific classes of collateral or credit risk mitigation. The principal collateral types for loans and advances are:

• Mortgages over residential properties;• Mortgage business assets such as premises, And inventory;• Mortgage financial instruments such as debt securities and equities.

Longer-term finance and lending to corporate entities are generally secured; revolving individual credit facilities are generally unsecured. In addition, in order to minimize the credit loss the Bank will seek additional collateral from the counterparty as soon as impairment indicators are noticed for the relevant individual loans and advances.

Collateral held as security for financial assets other than loans and advances is determined by the nature of the instrument. Debt securities, treasury and other governmental securities are generally unsecured, with the exception of asset-backed securities and similar instruments, which are secured by portfolios of financial instruments.

(b) DerivativesThe Bank maintains strict control limits on net open derivative positions (i.e., the difference between purchase and sale contracts), by both amount and term. At any one time, the amount subject to credit risk is limited to the current fair value of instruments that are favorable to the Bank (i.e., assets where their fair value is positive), which in relation to derivatives is only a small fraction of the contract, or notional values used to express the volume of instruments outstanding. This credit risk exposure is managed as part of the overall lending limits with customers, together with potential exposures from market movements. Collateral or other security is not usually obtained for credit risk exposures on these instruments, except where the bank requires margin deposits from counterparties.

Settlement risk arises in any situation where a payment in cash, securities or equities is made in the expectation of a corresponding receipt in cash, securities or equities. Daily settlement limits are established for each counterparty to cover the aggregate of all settlement risk arising from the Bank market transactions on any single day.

(c) Master netting arrangementsThe Bank further restricts its exposure to credit losses by entering into master netting arrangements with counterparties with which it undertakes a significant volume of transactions. Master netting arrangements do not generally result in an offset of balance sheet assets and liabilities, as transactions are usually settled on a gross basis. However, the credit risk associated with favorable contracts is reduced by a

master netting arrangement to the extent that if a default occurs, all amounts with the counterparty are terminated and settled on a net basis. The Bank overall exposure to credit risk on derivative instruments subject to master netting arrangements can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the arrangement.

(d) Credit-related commitmentsThe primary purpose of these instruments is to ensure that funds are available to a customer as required.Guarantees and standby letters of credit carry the same credit risk as loans. Documentary and commercial letters of credit – which are written undertakings by the Bank on behalf of a customer authorizing a third party to draw drafts on the Bank up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions – are collateralized by the underlying shipments of goods to which they relate and therefore carry less risk than a direct loan.Commitments to extend credit represent unused portions of authorizations to extend credit in the form of loans, guarantees or letters of credit. With respect to credit risk on commitments to extend credit, the Bank is potentially exposed to loss in an amount equal to the total unused commitments. 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 Bank monitors the term to maturity of credit commitments because longer-term commitments generally have a greater degree of credit risk than shorter-term commitments.

3.1.3- Impairment and provisioning policiesThe internal rating systems described in Note 3.1.1 focus more on credit-quality mapping from the inception of the lending and investment activities.

In contrast, impairment provisions are recognized for financial reporting purposes only for losses that have been incurred at the balance sheet date based on objective evidence of impairment Due to the different methodologies applied, the amount of incurred credit losses provided for in the financial statements are usually lower than the amount determined from the expected loss model that is used for internal operational management and CBE regulation purposes.

The impairment provision shown in the balance sheet at the year-end is derived from each of the four internal rating grades. However, the majority of the impairment provision comes from the bottom two grads. The table below shows the percentage of the Bank’s in balance sheet items relating to loans and advances and the associated impairment provision for each of the Bank’s internal rating categories:

The internal rating tools assists management to determine whether objective evidence of impairment exists under EAS 26, based on the following criteria set out by the Bank:- Cash flow difficulties experienced by the borrower- Breach of loan covenants or conditions- Initiation of bankruptcy proceedings- Deterioration of the borrower’s competitive position- Bank granted concessions may not be approved under normal circumstances, for economic, legal reasons, or financial difficulties facing the borrower- Deterioration in the value of collateral- Deterioration in the credit situation

The Bank’s policy requires the review of all financial assets that are above materiality thresholds at least annually or more regularly when individual circumstances require. Impairment allowances on individually assessed accounts are determined by an evaluation of the incurred loss at balance-sheet date on a case-by-case basis, and are applied to all individually significant accounts. The assessment normally encompasses collateral held (including re-confirmation of its enforceability) and the anticipated receipts for that individual account.Collectively assessed impairment allowances are provided portfolios of homogenous assets by using the available historical experience, experienced judgment and statistical techniques.

3.1.4- Pattern of measuring the general banking riskIn addition to the four categories of measuring credit worthiness discussed in disclosure 3.1.1.a the management makes small groups more detailed according to the CBE rules. Assets facing credit risk are classified to detailed conditions relying greatly on customer’s information, activities, financial position and his regular payments to his debts.

The Bank calculates the provisions needed for assets impairment in addition to credit regulations according to special percentages determined by CBE.

In the case of increase of impairment loss provision needed according to CBE than that for purposes of making the financial statements according to the EAS, the general banking risk reserve is included in owners’ equity deducted from the retained earning with this increase, this reserve is modified with periodic basis with the increase and decrease, which equals the increase in provisions and this reserve is not distributed.

And this are categories of worthiness according to internal ratings compared with CBE ratings and rates of provisions needed for assets impairment related to credit risk.

3.3- Liquidity RiskLiquidity risk is the risk that the Bank is unable to meet its payment obligations associated with its financial liabilities when they fall due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn. The consequence may be the failure to meet obligations to repay depositors and fulfill commitments to lend.

Liquidity Risk Management ProcessThe processes of liquidity risk control carried by Assets and Liabilities management department in the Bank include the following:

- The daily funding is managed by monitoring and controlling the future cash flows to ensure the ability to fulfill all obligations and requirements. This includes replenishment of funds as they mature or is borrowed by customers. The Bank maintains an active presence in the global money markets to ensure achievement of this target.

- Maintaining a portfolio of highly marketable assets, which can easily be liquidated to meet any interruption in cash flows.

- Monitoring liquidity ratios compared to the internal requirements of the Bank and the Central Bank of Egypt's requirements.

- Management of concentration and profile the debt maturities.

Monitoring and reporting take the form of cash flow measurement and projections for the next day, week, and month respectively.

The starting point for these projections is represented in the analysis of the contractual maturities of financial liabilities and expected collection dates of financial assets. Assets and Liabilities management department controls the unmatched medium term assets management, the level and type of the unutilized portion of loans' commitments, the extent of utilizing debit current accounts advances and the impact of contingent liabilities such as letters of guarantees and letters of credit.

Financing approachLiquidity resources are reviewed by a separate team from treasury department of the Bank to provide a wide variety of currencies, geographical regions, resources, products, and maturities.

Assets available to meet all liabilities and cover loan commitments include cash, balances with central banks, balances due from banks, treasury bills and other governmental notes, and loans and facilities to banks and clients. Maturity term of percentage of loans to clients that are maturing within a year is extended in the normal course of the Bank’s business. Moreover, some debt instruments, treasury bills and other governmental notes are pledged to cover liabilities. The Bank has the ability to meet unexpected net cash flows through selling securities, and finding other financing sources.

Due from banks:The fair value of floating rate placements and overnight deposits is their carrying amount. The estimated fair value of fixed interest bearing deposits is based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money-market interest rates for debts with similar credit risk and similar maturity date.

Loans and advances to banksLoans and advances to banks are represented in loans other than deposits with banks.The expected fair value for loans and advances represents the discounted value of future cash flows expected to be collected. Cash flows are discounted by adopting the current market rate to determine the fair value.

Loans and advances to customersLoans and Facilities are net of provisions for impairment. The estimated fair value of loans and Facilities represents the discounted amount of estimated future cash flows expected to be received. Expected cash flows are discounted at current market rates to determine fair value.

Financial InvestmentsInvestments in financial securities in the previous table include only held to maturity bearing assets. Available for sale assets are assessed at fair value with the exception of equity instruments which the Bank has been unable to evaluate their fair value to a reliable extent. The fair value of financial assets held to maturity is determined based on market rates or prices obtained from brokers. If these data are unavailable then the fair value is assessed by applying the financial markets' rates for negotiable financial securities with similar credit features, maturity dates as well as similar rates.

3.5 Capital ManagementThe Bank’s objectives when managing capital, which consists of another items in addition of owner's equity stated in balance sheet are:- To comply with the capital requirements in Egypt.- To safeguard the Bank’s ability to continue as an ongoing concern so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and stakeholders.- To maintain a strong capital base to support the development of its business.- Capital adequacy and the use of regulatory capital are monitored daily by the Bank’s management, employing techniques based on the guidelines developed by the Basel Committee as implemented by the Central Bank Of Egypt, for supervisory purposes. The required information is filed with the Authority on a quarterly basis.

Central Bank Of Egypt requires the following:- Hold the minimum level of the issued and paid up capital of EGP 500 Million.- Maintaining a percentage between capital elements and asset and contingent liabilities elements weighted by risk equals to or exceeds 11.25 %. The numerator of the capital adequacy ratio consists of the following two tiers:

Tier One:Represented in basic capital which consists of paid-in-capital (after deducting the book value of treasury shares), retained profits and reserves from profit appropriation with the exception of general banking risk reserve less any goodwill previously recognized or any carried over losses and 40% of intangible assets and deferred taxes. The Conservative buffer is formed from the Bank's annual profits as an additional independent pillar of the continuing base capital within the first tranche of the Bank's capital base and thus to the total standard, and the Conservative buffer is originally configured from annual profits but is allowed to be configured if components with the base capital meet this.

Tier TwoSupplementary Capital consists of equivalent of the general risks provision related to creditworthiness bases issued by the Central Bank Of Egypt and not exceeding 1.25% of the total risk weighted assets and contingent liabilities, subordinated loans / deposits' term which exceed 5 years (with amortization of 20% of their value each year of the last five years of their term) and 45% of the increase between fair value and book value of financial investments available for sale, held to maturity and associates and subsidiaries.When calculating the total numerator of the capital adequacy ratio it should be taken into consideration that the supplementary capital does not exceed in any way the basic capital and that subordinated loans (deposits) do not exceed half of the basic capital.Asset at risk are weighted ranging from zero up to 100% classified in accordance with the nature of the debit side of each asset, to reflect the related credit risks, while taking into consideration cash collaterals. Same treatment is applied on off- balance amounts after making adjustments to reflect the contingent nature and probable losses of these amounts.The Bank has complied with all local capital requirements at March 31, 2018 the following table summa-rizes the components of basic and supplementary capital and capital adequacy ratios as at 30/6/2018.

4- The significant accounting estimates and assumptionsThe Bank applies estimates and assumptions, which affect the amounts of assets and liabilities to be disclosed within the following financial year. Estimates and assumptions are continuously assessed based on historical experience and other factors as well, including the expectations of future events, which are considered reasonable in the light of available information and surrounding circumstances.

(A) Impairment loss on loans and advancesThe Bank reviews the loans and advances portfolio on at least a quarterly basis to assess impairment. The Bank applies personal judgment when determine the necessity of recording the impairment charges to the income statement so as to know if there is any reliable data which refer to the existence of a measurable decline in the expected future cash flows of the loans portfolio even before being acquainted with the decline at the level of each loan in the portfolio. These evidences may include observable data, which refer to the occurrence of a negative change in the ability of a portfolio of borrowers to repay the Bank, or local or economic circumstances related to default in the bank's assets. On scheduling future cash flows, the management use estimates based on prior experience of losses of assets with credit risk

characteristics in the presence of objective evidences that refer to impairment similar to those included in the portfolio. The method and assumptions used in estimating the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed on a regular basis to minimize any differences between estimated and actual losses based on expertise.

(B) Impairment in equity instruments investments available for saleThe Bank determine impairment in equity's instruments' investments available for sale when there is a significant or prolonged decline in their fair value below their cost.

Determining whether the decrease is significant or prolonged depends on personal judgment. To reach this judgment the Bank estimates- among other factors- the usual volatility of the share price. Additionally, there could be impairment if there is evidence on the existence of deterioration in the financial position of the invested company or in its operating and financing cash flows or if there is deterioration in the industry's or sector's performance or in case of changes in technology.

(C) The fair value of derivativesThe fair values of financial instruments, which are not listed in active markets, is identified by applying valuation methods. When such methods are used to identify fair value, they are tested and reviewed periodically by qualified personnel who are independent of the body that prepared them.

(D) Financial investments held - to- maturityThe non-derivative financial assets with payments and maturity dates that are fixed or determinable are classified as financial investments held to maturity, and this classification requires to a great extent the application of personal judgment and to reach such decision the Bank evaluates the intention and ability to hold these investments until maturity. If the Bank fails to hold these investments until maturity date, with the exception of very special cases such as selling an insignificant amount near maturity, then these investments, which were classified held to maturity, should be reclassified available for sale investments. Consequently, these investments shall be measured by fair value and not by amortized cost in addition to suspension of classifying any investments under the mentioned item.

(E) Income taxesThe Bank records the liabilities of the expected results of tax examination according to estimates of the probability of the emergence of additional taxes. When there is, a variance between the final result of taxes and the amounts previously recorded then these variances will affect the income tax and deferred tax provision for the year in which the variance has been identified.

- Changes in the fair value of monetary financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies and classified as available for sale investments (debt instruments) are analyzed into valuation differences resulting from changes in amortized cost of the instrument, translation differences arising from changes in foreign exchange rates and differences resulting from changes in the fair value of the instrument.

Valuation differences are recognized in profit or loss to the extent they relate to changes in amortized cost and changes in exchange rates which are reported in the income statement under the line items revenues from loans and similar activities’ and ‘other operating revenues (expenses)’ respectively. The remaining differences resulting from changes in fair value of the instrument are carried to ‘reserve for cumulative change in fair value of available for sale investments’ in the equity section.

- Valuation differences resulting from measuring the non-monetary financial instruments at fair value include gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of those items. Revaluation differences arising from the measurement of equity instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in the income statement, whereas the revaluation differences arising from the measurement of equity instruments classified as available for sale financial investments are carried to ‘reserve for cumulative change in fair value of available for sale investments’ in the equity section.

2.5- Financial assetsThe Bank classifies its financial assets in the following categories:Financial assets classified as at fair value through profits or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity financial assets, and available for sale financial assets. The Bank’s classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.Management determines the classification of its investments at initial recognition.

(a) Financial assets classified at fair value through profit or lossThis category has two sub-categories: financial assets held for trading, and those designated at fair value through profit or loss at inception.

- A financial asset is classified as held for trading if it is acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term or if it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedging instruments.

- Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss when:• Doing so significantly reduces measurement inconsistencies that would arise if the related derivatives were treated as held for trading and the underlying financial instruments were carried at amortized cost for loans and advances to customers or banks and debt securities in issue’.

• Certain investments, such as equity investments, are managed and evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy and reported to key management personnel on that basis are designated at fair value through Profit and Loss.

• Financial instruments, such as debt securities held, containing one or more embedded derivatives significantly modify the cash flows, are designated at fair value through profit and loss.

- Profits and losses resulted from changes in the fair value of the financial derivatives which are managed in conjunction with the assets and liabilities classified at inception fair value through profit and loss are recorded in the income statement within “net income from financial instruments classified at inception at fair value through profit and loss” item.

- Any derivative from the financial instruments group evaluated at fair value through profit and loss is not to be reclassified during the year of holding it or during its validity period. In addition, any instrument from financial instruments group evaluated at fair value through profit and loss is not to be reclassified if the mentioned instrument has been allocated by the Bank at initial recognition as an instrument to be evaluated at fair value through profit and loss.

(b) Loans and receivablesLoans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, other than: (a) those that the Bank intends to sell immediately or in the short term, which are classified as held for trading, or those that the Bank upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through profit or loss; (b) those that the Bank upon initial Recognition designates as available for sale; or (c) those for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration.

(c) Held-to-maturity financial investmentsHeld-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Bank’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. If the Bank were to sell a significant amount of held to-maturity assets, the entire category would be reclassified as available for sale unless in the necessary cases.

(d) Available-for-sale financial investmentsAvailable-for-sale investments are non-derivative financial assets with intention to be held for an indefinite period of time, which may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices.

The following is applied to financial assets- Regular-way purchases and sales of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity and available for sale are recognized on trade-date – the date on which the Bank commits to purchase or sell the asset.

- Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit and loss are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement.

- Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or where the Bank has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are derecognized when they are extinguished − that is, when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

- Available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

- Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ category are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they arise. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized directly in equity, until the financial asset is derecognized or impaired. At this time, the accumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is recognized in profit or loss.

- Interest calculated using the effective interest method and foreign currency gains and losses on monetary assets classified as available for sale are recognized in the income statement. Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognized in the income statement when the Bank’s right to receive payment is established.

- The fair values of quoted investments in active markets are based on current bid prices. If there is no active market for a financial asset, or no current demand prices available the Bank establishes fair value using valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants If the bank had been unable to estimate the fair value of equity instruments classified available for sale, value is measured at cost less any impairment in value.

- The Bank reclassify the financial asset which classified as a financial instruments available for sale, which left the definition of loans and debts (bonds or loans), to be classified to the group of loans and receivables or financial assets held to maturity - all as the case - when available Bank has the intent and ability to hold these financial assets in the foreseeable future or until maturity and reclassification to be booked by fair value at reclassifications date, and not process any profits or losses on those assets that have been recognized previously in equity and in the following manner:

1 - In case of reclassification of financial asset, which has a fixed maturity are amortized gains or losses over the remaining life of the investment retained until the maturity date in a manner effective yield is consumed any difference between the value on the basis of amortized cost and value on an accrual basis over the remaining life of the financial asset using the effective yield method, and in the case of the decay of the value of the financial asset is later recognition of any gain or loss previously recognized directly in equity in the profits and losses.

2 - In the case of financial asset which has no fixed maturity continue to profit or loss in equity until the sale of the asset or to dispose of it, then be recognized in the profit and loss In the case of erosion of the value of the financial asset is later recognition of any gain or loss previously recognized directly within equity in the profits and losses.

- If the Bank to adjust its estimates of payments or receipts are the settlement of the carrying amount of the financial asset (or group of financial assets) to reflect the actual cash inflows and the adjusted estimates to be recalculated book value and then calculates the present value of estimated future cash flows at the effective yield of the financial instrument and is recognized settlement recognized as income or expense in the profit and loss.

- In all cases, if the Bank re-Tab financial asset in accordance with what is referred to The Bank at a later date to increase its estimate of the proceeds of future cash result of the increase will be recovered from the cash receipts, is the recognition of the impact of this increase in settlement of the interest rate effective from the date of change in the estimate and not in settlement of the balance of the original notebook in the history of change in the estimate.

2.6- Offsetting financial instrumentsFinancial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

And the clauses of agreements to buy treasury bills with a commitment to re-sale agreements and sale of treasury bills with a commitment to re-purchase on a net basis within the balance sheet item, treasury bills and other government papers.

2.7- Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting- Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Fair values are obtained from quoted market prices in active markets, including recent market transactions, and valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models and options pricing models, as appropriate. All derivatives are carried as assets when fair value is positive and as liabilities when fair value is negative.

- Embedded derivatives, such as the conversion option in a convertible bond, are treated as separate derivatives when their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contract, provided that the host contract is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss as part of “net trading income”.

Embedded derivatives are not split if the Bank chooses to designate the entire hybrid contact as at fair value through profit or loss.

- The accounting treatment used to recognize changes in fair value of derivatives depends on whether or not the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument under hedge accounting rules and on the nature of the hedged item. The Bank designates certain derivatives as either:

• Hedges of the fair value of recognized assets or liabilities or firm commitments (fair value hedge);

• Hedging relating to future cash flows attributable to a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction (cash flow hedge).

• Hedging for net investment in foreign operations relating to future cash flows attributable to a recognized (net investment hedge).

• Hedge accounting is used for derivatives designated in a hedging relationship when the criteria are met.

- The Bank documents, at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedged items and hedging instruments, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions.

The Bank also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of hedged items.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

2.7.1- Fair value hedgeChanges in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognized in profit or loss immediately, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps and the changes in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the ‘net interest income’. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the currency swaps are recognized in the ‘net trading income’. Any ineffectiveness is recognized in profit or loss in ‘net trading income’.

When the hedging instrument no longer qualified for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the book value of a hedged item is amortized which are accounted for using the amortized cost method, by charging to the profit and loss to the maturity. The adjustments made to the book value of the hedged equity instrument remains in the equity section until being excluded.

2.7.2- Cash flow hedgeThe effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and effective for cash flow hedge shall be recognized in equity while changes in fair value relating to the ineffective portion shall be recognized in the income statement in “net trading income”.

Amounts accumulated in equity are transferred to income statement in the relevant periods when the hedged item affects the income statement. The effective portion of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps and options are reported in “net trading income”.

When a hedged item becomes due or is sold or if hedging instrument no longer qualifies for hedge accounting requirements, gains or losses that have been previously accumulated in equity remain in equity and shall only be recognized in profit or loss when the forecast transaction ultimately occurs. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur any related cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been recognized in equity shall be reclassified immediately to income statement. If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item that is measured at amortized cost is amortized to profit or loss over the period to maturity.

2.7.3- Net investment hedgeAccounting for net investment hedge is the same for cash flows hedge. Profit or loss from hedging instrument related to the effective portion of the hedge to be recognized in Equity, while it is recognized in the income statement directly for hedging instrument not related to the effective portion. Accumulated profit or loss in equity to be transferred to the income statement upon disposal of foreign transactions.

2.7.4- Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accountingInterest on and changes in fair value of any derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting is recognized immediately in the income statement in “net trading income” line item. However, gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are managed in conjunction with designated financial assets or financial liabilities are included in “net income from financial instruments

designated at fair value through profit or loss”.

2.8- Interest income and expenseInterest income and expense for all interest-bearing financial instruments, except for those classified as held for trading or designated as at fair value through profit or loss, are recognized within ‘interest income’ and ‘interest expense’ in the income statement using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Bank estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment options) but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts.

When loans or debts are classified as non-performing or impaired, related interest income are not recognized but rather, are carried off balance sheet in statistical records and are recognized as revenues on the cash basis as follows:

1- When collected and after recovery of all arrears for retail loans, personal loans, real estate loans for personal housing and loans to small business.

2- For corporate loans, interest income is also recognized on the cash basis, according to which interest earned during the periods subsequent to reschedule agreements does not start to accrete on the loan principal until the Bank collects 25% of the rescheduled installments and after payments of the installments continue to be regular for at least one year. if the customer is always paying at his due dates the interest calculated is added to the loan balance which makes revenues (interest on rescheduling without deficits) without interests aside before rescheduling which is avoiding revenues except after paying all the loan balance in the balance sheet before rescheduling.

2.9- Fees and commissions incomeFees and commissions charged by the Bank for servicing a loan are recognized as revenue as the services are provided. Recognition of such fees and commission in profit or loss ceases when a loan becomes non-performing or is impaired in which case fees and commission income is rather marginalized and carried off the balance sheet. Recognition of such fees and commissions as revenues continues on the cash basis when the relevant interest income on the financial instrument is recognized since they are generally treated as an adjustment to the effective interest rate on the financial asset.

If it is probable that the Bank will enter into a specific lending arrangement, the commitment fee received is regarded as compensation for an ongoing involvement with the acquisition of a financial instrument and, together with the related transaction costs, is deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the effective interest rate. If the commitment expires without the Bank making the loan, the fee is recognized as revenue on expiry.

A syndication fee received by the Bank that arranges a loan and retains no part of the loan package for itself (or retains a part at the same effective interest rate for comparable risk as other participants) is compensation for the service of syndication. Such a fee is recognized as revenue when the syndication has been completed.

150 1512017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

Fees and commissions resulting from direct negotiations or participation in such negotiations for the benefit of or on behalf of another party, such as those earned on the allotment of shares or other financial assets to a client or acquisition or disposal of entities for a client, are recognized as revenue when the specific transaction has been completed.Administrative and other services fees are recognized as income on a time proportionate basis over the lifetime of the service.Fees charged for financial planning services and custodian services provided over long periods are recognized as income over the period during which the service is rendered.

2.10- Dividend incomeDividends are recognized in the income statement when the Bank’s right to receive payment is established.

2.11- Purchase and resale agreements, sale and repurchase agreementsThe financial instruments sold, subject to repurchase agreements, are reported as additions to the balance of treasury bills and other governmental notes in the assets side at the balance sheet, whereas the liability (purchase and resale agreement) is reported in the balance sheet as a deduction therefrom. Difference between the sale price and repurchase price is recognized as a return throughout the period of the arrangement using the effective interest rate method.

2.12- Impairment of financial assets(a) Assets carried at amortized costThe Bank assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. The criteria that the Bank uses to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include:

• Cash flow difficulties experienced by the borrower (for example, equity ratio, net income percentage of sales);• Breach of loan covenants or conditions;• Initiation of bankruptcy proceedings;• Deterioration of the borrower’s competitive position;• The Bank for reasons of economic or legal financial difficulties of the borrower by granting concessions may not agree with the Bank granted in normal circumstances;• Deterioration in the value of collateral; and • Downgrading below investment grade level.The objective evidence of impairment loss for group of financial assets is the clear data indicate to a decline can be measured in future cash flows expected from this group since its initial recognition, although not possible to determine the decrease of each asset separately, for example increasing the number of failures in payment for one of the banking products.

The estimated period between a losses occurring and its identification is determined by local management for each identified portfolio. In general, the periods used vary between three months and 12 months.

The Bank first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant, and individually or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant and in this field the following are considered.

- If the Bank determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists 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 according to historical default ratios.

- Assets that are individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not included in a collective assessment of impairment.

- If no impairment losses result from the previous assessment of impairment in this case the asset included in a collective assessment of impairment.

The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognized in the income statement.

If a loan or held-to-maturity investment has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract when there is objective evidence for asset impairment. As a practical expedient, the Bank may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price. The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of a collateralized 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.

For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics (i.e., on the basis of the Group’s grading process that considers asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors). 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.

For the purposes of evaluation of impairment for a group of a financial assets according to historical default ratios 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 in the Bank and historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the Bank. Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect the period on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the effects of conditions in the historical period that do not currently exist.

Estimates of changes in future cash flows for groups of assets should reflect and be directionally consistent with changes in related observable data from period to period (for example, changes in unemployment rates, property prices, payment status, or other factors indicative of changes in the probability of losses in the Bank and their magnitude). The methodology and assumptions used for estimating future cash flows are reviewed regularly by the Bank.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

(b) Assets classified as available for sale and held to maturityThe Bank assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets classify under available for sale or held to maturity is impaired. In the case of equity investments classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired.

The Decrease Consider significant cause it become 10% From cost of book value and the decrease consider to be extended if it continue for period more than 9 months, and if the mentioned evidences become available then the accumulated loss to be post from the equity and disclosed at the income statement, impairment losses recognized in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement.

If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement.

2.13- Real Estate InvestmentsThe real estate investments represent lands and buildings owned by the Bank In order to obtain rental returns or capital gains and therefore does not include real estate assets which the Bank exercised its work through or those that have owned by the Bank as settlement of debts. The accounting treatment is the same used with fixed assets.

2.14- Intangible assets 2.14.1- SoftwareExpenditure on upgrade and maintenance of computer programs is recognized as an expense in the income Statement in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditures directly incurred in connection with specific software are recognized as intangible assets if they are controlled by the Bank and when it is probable that they will generate future economic benefits that exceed its cost within more than one year. Direct costs include the will generate future economic benefits that exceed its cost within more than one year. Direct costs include the cost of the staff involved in upgrading the software in addition to a reasonable portion of relative overheads. Upgrade costs are recognized and added to the original cost of the software when it is likely that such costs will increase the efficiency or enhance the performance of the computers software beyond its original specification Cost of computer software recognized as an asset shall be amortized over the period of expected benefits which shall not exceed three years.

2.14.2- Other intangible assets Other intangible assets represent intangible assets other than software programs (they include but not limited to trademark, licenses, and benefits of rental contracts).

The other intangible assets are recorded at their acquisition cost and are amortized on the straight-line method or based on economic benefits expected from these assets over their estimated useful life.

Concerning the assets which do not have a finite useful life, they are not subject to amortization they are annually assessed for impairment, while value of impairment (if any) is charged to the income statement.

2.15- Fixed AssetsLands and buildings are mainly represented in head office, branches and offices premises. All fixed assets are disclosed at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The historical cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisitions of the fixed assets’ items.

Subsequent costs are included in the assets carrying amount or recognized separately, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance expenses are recognized in profit or loss within “other operating costs” line item during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Land is not depreciated. Depreciation of other fixed assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Premises and constructions 40 years

Fixtures and air conditions 5 years

Safes 50 years

Copiers and fax 8 years

Vehicles and means of transportation 5 years

Electric appliances 10 years

Mobile phones 3 years

Telephone networks, fire extinguishers 10 years

Computers and computers’ software 3 years

Furniture 10 years

Decorations 4 years

154 1552017-2018 annual report2017-2018 annual report

The residual value and useful lives of the fixed assets are reviewed on the each balance sheet date and they are adjusted whenever it is necessary. Depreciated assets are reviewed for purposes of determining extent of impairment when an event or change in conditions occurs suggesting that the book value may not be recovered. Consequently, the book value of the asset is reduced immediately to the asset’s net realizable value in case increasing the book value over the net realizable value.

The net realizable value represents the net selling value of the asset or its utilization value whichever is greater. Gains and losses from the disposal of fixed assets are determined by comparing the net proceeds at book value. Gains (losses) are included within other operating income (expenses) in the income statement.

2.16- Impairment of non-financial assetsAssets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.

2.17- Leases(a) Being lesseeLease payments made under operating leases, net of any discounts received from the lessor, are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

(b) Being lesserAssets leased out under operating lease contracts are reported as part of the fixed assets in the balance sheet and are depreciated over the expected useful lives of the assets, on the same basis as other property assets. Lease rental income is recognized net of any discounts granted to the lessee, using the straight line method over the contract term.

2.18- Cash and cash equivalentsFor the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise balances with less than three months’ maturity from the date of acquisition, They include cash and balances due from Central Bank of Egypt (other than those under the mandatory reserve), balances due from banks, treasury bills and other governmental notes.

2.19- Other ProvisionsProvisions for restructuring costs and legal claims are recognized when: the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably estimated.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. Provisions which negated the purpose of wholly or partly repaid within the item other operating income (expense).

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation which become due after one year from the financial statement date using appropriate rate for the due date (without being affected by effective tax rate) which reflect time value of money, and if the due date is less than one year we calculate the estimated value of obligation but if it have significant impact then it calculated using the current value.

2.20- Financial GuaranteesA financial guarantee contract is a contract issued by the Bank as security for loans or debit current accounts due from its clients to other entities that requires the Bank to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. These financial guarantees are presented to the banks, corporations and other entities on behalf of the bank’s clients. When a financial guarantee is recognized initially, the Bank shall measure it at its fair value that is directly attributable to the issue of such financial guarantee.

The amount initially recognized less, when appropriate, cumulative amortization of security fees recognized in the income statement using the straight-line method over the term of the guarantee and the best estimate for the payments required to settle any financial obligation resulting from the financial guarantee at the balance sheet date such estimates are made based on experience in similar transactions and historical losses as supported by management judgment.

Any increase in the obligations resulting from the financial guarantee, shall be recognized within other operating income (costs) in the income statement.

2.21- Employees’ benefits2.21.1- Pension obligationsThe Bank has employees insurance fund, it was founded at the first of July 2000 under the law of 54 for the year 1975 and its executive regulations for the purpose of granting insurance and compensation benefits for the members. This fund rules and modifications are applied to all the bank staff in the head office and its branches in Arab Republic of Egypt.

The Bank is committed to lead to the fund monthly and annual subscriptions in accordance with the Rules of the Fund and its amendments, and there are no obligations to the Bank following the payment of additional contributions. Contributions are recognized in expenses of employee benefits when due. The recognition of contributions paid in advance as an asset to the extent that its payment to the reduction of future payments or cash refund.

2.22- Income taxesIncome tax on the profit or loss for the year includes each of year tax and deferred tax and is recognized in the income statement except for income tax relating to items of equity that are recognized directly in equity.

Income tax is recognized based on net taxable profit using the tax rates applicable at the date of the balance sheet in addition to tax adjustments for previous years.

Deferred taxes arising from temporary time differences between the book value of assets and liabilities are recognized in accordance with the principles of accounting and value according to the foundations of the tax, this is determining the value of deferred tax on the expected manner to realize or settle the values of assets and liabilities, using tax rates applicable at the date of the balance sheet.

Deferred tax assets of the Bank recognized when there is likely to be possible to achieve profits subject to tax in the future to be possible through to use that asset, and is reducing the value of deferred tax assets with part of that will not come from tax benefit expected during the following years, that in the case of expected high benefit tax, deferred tax assets will increase within the limits of the above reduced.

2.23- BorrowingBorrowing is recognized initially at fair value net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost, any difference between proceeds net of transaction costs and the redemption value is recognized in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

2.24- Capital2.24.1- Capital issuance costCost of issuance of new shares, issuance of shares to effect an acquisition, or issue of share options, net of tax benefits, are reported a deduction from equity.

2.24.2- DividendsDividends are recognized when the general assembly of shareholders approves them. Dividends include the employees’ profit share and the board of directors’ remuneration as prescribed by the Bank’s articles of association and the corporate law.

2.24.3- Treasury sharesThe Bank didn’t deal on the treasury stocks, and in case of purchasing treasury stocks the purchased amount is deducted from shareholders’ equity till its cancellation and in case of selling or reissuing these stocks all collected amounts will be added to shareholders’ equity.

2.25- Trust activitiesThe Bank practices trust activities that result in ownerships or management of assets on behalf of individuals, trusts, and retirement benefit plans. These assets and related income are excluded from the Bank’s separate financial statements, as they are assets not owned by the Bank.

2.26- Comparatives figuresComparative figures are reclassified, where necessary, to conform with changes in the current year presentation.

3- Financial risk managementThe Bank’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks and those activities involve the analysis, evaluation, acceptance and management of some degree of risk or combination of risks. Taking risk is core to the financial business, and the operational risks are an inevitable consequence of being in business. The Bank’s aim is therefore to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and return and minimize potential adverse effects on the Bank’s financial performance. And the most important types of financial risks are credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and other operating risks. Also market risk includes exchange rate risk, rate of return risk and other prices risks.

The Bank’s risk management policies are designed to identify and analyses these risks, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor the risks and adherence to limits by means of reliable and up-to-date information systems. The Bank regularly reviews its risk management policies and systems to reflect changes in markets, products and emerging best practice.

Risk management is carried out by a risk department under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Bank Treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Bank’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments.

In addition, credit risk management is responsible for the independent review of risk management and the control environment.

3.1- Credit riskThe Bank takes on exposure to credit risk, which is the risk that counterparty will cause a financial loss for the Bank by failing to discharge an obligation. Management therefore carefully manages its exposure to credit risk. Credit exposures arise principally in loans and advances, debt securities and other bills. There is also credit risk in off-balance sheet financial arrangements such as loan commitments.

The credit risk management and control are centralized in a credit risk management team in Bank Treasury and reported to the Board of Directors and head of each business unit regularly.

3.1.1- Credit risk measurement(a) Loans and advances to banks and customersTo measure credit risk related to loans and advances extended to banks and customers, the Bank examines the following three components:

- Probability of default of the customer or others in fulfilling their contractual obligations.

- The current position and the likely expected future development from which the bank can conclude the balance exposed to default (exposure at default).

- Loss given default.The daily activities of the bank’s business involves of measurement for credit risk which reflect the expected loss (The Expected Loss Model) required by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The operating measures may interfere with the impairment charge according to the Egyptian Accounting Standard no. (26), which depends on losses realized at the balance sheet’s date (realized losses models) and not on expected losses.

The Bank assesses the probability of default of individual counterparties using internal rating tools tailored to the various categories of counterparty. They have been developed internally and combine statistical analysis with credit officer judgment and are validated, where appropriate.

Clients of the Bank are segmented into four rating classes.

The Bank’s rating scale, which is shown below, reflects the range of default probabilities defined for each rating class. This means that, in principle, exposures migrate between classes as the assessment of their probability of default changes. The rating tools are kept under review and upgraded as necessary. The Bank regularly validates the performance of the rating and their predictive power with regard to default events.

Bank’s internal ratings scale:Bank’s internal ratings scale Bank’s rating Description of the grade1 Performing loans2 Regular watching3 Watch list4 Nonperforming loans

And the loans expose to default depend on the banks expectation for the outstanding amounts when default occur.

example, as for a loan position is the nominal value while for commitments the Bank enlists all already drawn amounts besides these amounts expected to be withdrawn until the date of default, if it happens.

Loss given default or loss severity represents the Bank expectation of the extent of loss on a claim should default occur. It is expressed as percentage loss per unit of exposure and typically varies by type of counterparty, type and seniority of claim and availability of collateral or other credit mitigation.

(b) Debt instruments and treasury and other billsFor debt instruments and bills, external rating such as Standard & Poor’s rating or their equivalents are used by the Bank Treasury for managing of the credit risk exposures, and if this rating is not available, then other ways similar to those used with the credit customers are uses. The investments in those securities and bills are viewed as a way to gain a better credit quality mapping and maintain a readily available source to meet the funding requirement at the same time.

3.1.2- Risk limit control and mitigation policiesThe Bank manages, limits and controls concentrations of credit risk wherever they are identified − in particular, to individual counterparties and banks, and to industries and countries.

The Bank structures the levels of credit risk it undertakes by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted in relation to one borrower, or groups of borrowers, and to geographical and industry segments. Such risks are monitored on a revolving basis and subject to an annual or more frequent review, when considered necessary. Limits on the level of credit risk by individual, counterparties, product, and industry sector and by country are approved quarterly by the Board of Directors.

The exposure to any one borrower including banks and brokers is further restricted by sub-limits covering on- and off-balance sheet exposures, and daily delivery risk limits in relation to trading items such as forward foreign exchange contracts. Actual exposures against limits are monitored daily.

Exposure to credit risk is also managed through regular analysis of the ability of borrowers and potential borrowers to meet interest and capital repayment obligations and by changing these lending limits where appropriate.Some other specific control and mitigation measures are outlined below:

(a) CollateralThe Bank employs a range of policies and practices to mitigate credit risk. The most traditional of these is the taking of security for funds advances, which is common practice. The Bank implements guidelines on the acceptability of specific classes of collateral or credit risk mitigation. The principal collateral types for loans and advances are:

• Mortgages over residential properties;• Mortgage business assets such as premises, And inventory;• Mortgage financial instruments such as debt securities and equities.

Longer-term finance and lending to corporate entities are generally secured; revolving individual credit facilities are generally unsecured. In addition, in order to minimize the credit loss the Bank will seek additional collateral from the counterparty as soon as impairment indicators are noticed for the relevant individual loans and advances.

Collateral held as security for financial assets other than loans and advances is determined by the nature of the instrument. Debt securities, treasury and other governmental securities are generally unsecured, with the exception of asset-backed securities and similar instruments, which are secured by portfolios of financial instruments.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

(b) DerivativesThe Bank maintains strict control limits on net open derivative positions (i.e., the difference between purchase and sale contracts), by both amount and term. At any one time, the amount subject to credit risk is limited to the current fair value of instruments that are favorable to the bank (i.e., assets where their fair value is positive), which in relation to derivatives is only a small fraction of the contract, or notional values used to express the volume of instruments outstanding. This credit risk exposure is managed as part of the overall lending limits with customers, together with potential exposures from market movements. Collateral or other security is not usually obtained for credit risk exposures on these instruments, except where the bank requires margin deposits from counterparties.

Settlement risk arises in any situation where a payment in cash, securities or equities is made in the expectation of a corresponding receipt in cash, securities or equities. Daily settlement limits are established for each counterparty to cover the aggregate of all settlement risk arising from the Bank market transactions on any single day.

(c) Master netting arrangementsThe Bank further restricts its exposure to credit losses by entering into master netting arrangements with counterparties with which it undertakes a significant volume of transactions. Master netting arrangements do not generally result in an offset of balance sheet assets and liabilities, as transactions are usually settled on a gross basis. However, the credit risk associated with favorable contracts is reduced by a master netting arrangement to the extent that if a default occurs, all amounts with the counterparty are terminated and settled on a net basis. The Bank overall exposure to credit risk on derivative instruments subject to master netting arrangements can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the arrangement.

(d) Credit-related commitments3.1.3- Impairment and provisioning policiesThe internal rating systems described in Note 3.1.1 focus more on credit-quality mapping from the inception of the lending and investment activities.

In contrast, impairment provisions are recognized for financial reporting purposes only for losses that have been incurred at the balance sheet date based on objective evidence of impairment Due to the different methodologies applied, the amount of incurred credit losses provided for in the financial statements are usually lower than the amount determined from the expected loss model that is used for internal operational management and CBE regulation purposes.

The impairment provision shown in the balance sheet at the year-end is derived from each of the four internal rating grades. However, the majority of the impairment provision comes from the bottom two grads. The table below shows the percentage of the Bank’s in balance sheet items relating to loans and advances and the associated impairment provision for each of the Bank’s internal rating categories:

The internal rating tools assists management to determine whether objective evidence of impairment exists under EAS 26, based on the following criteria set out by the Bank:

- Cash flow difficulties experienced by the borrower

- Breach of loan covenants or conditions

- Initiation of bankruptcy proceedings

- Deterioration of the borrower’s competitive position

- Bank granted concessions may not be approved under normal circumstances, for economic, legal reasons, or financial difficulties facing the borrower

- Deterioration in the value of collateral

- Deterioration in the credit situation

The Bank’s policy requires the review of all financial assets that are above materiality thresholds at least annually or more regularly when individual circumstances require. Impairment allowances on individually assessed accounts are determined by an evaluation of the incurred loss at balance-sheet date on a case-by-case basis, and are applied to all individually significant accounts. The assessment normally encompasses collateral held (including re-confirmation of its enforceability) and the anticipated receipts for that individual account.

Collectively assessed impairment allowances are provided portfolios of homogenous assets by using the available historical experience, experienced judgment and statistical techniques.

3.1.4- Pattern of measuring the general banking riskIn addition to the four categories of measuring credit worthiness discussed in disclosure 3.1.1.a the management makes small groups more detailed according to the CBE rules. Assets facing credit risk are classified to detailed conditions relying greatly on customer’s information, activities, financial position and his regular payments to his debts.

The Bank calculates the provisions needed for assets impairment in addition to credit regulations according to special percentages determined by CBE.

In the case of increase of impairment loss provision needed according to CBE than that for purposes of making the financial statements according to the EAS, the general banking risk reserve is included in owners’ equity deducted from the retained earning with this increase, this reserve is modified with periodic basis with the increase and decrease, which equals the increase in provisions and this reserve is not distributed. And this are categories of worthiness according to internal ratings compared with CBE ratings and rates of provisions needed for assets impairment related to credit risk:

The gross amount of all financial assets is segmented into the geographical regions of the Bank’s clients:

3.2- Market RisksThe Bank is exposed to market risk represented in volatility in fair value or future cash flows resulted from changes in market prices. Market risk arise from the open positions of interest rates, currency rates and the equity instruments, the management of market risk resulted from trading, non-trading activities are centralized in the market risk department in the Bank.

3.2.1- Foreign exchange rate volatility riskThe Bank is exposed to foreign exchange rate volatility risk in terms of the financial position and cash flows. The board of directors set limits for foreign exchange risk at the total value of positions at the end of the day and during the day when timely control is exercised.The following table summarizes the bank’s exposure to the risks of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. This table includes the carrying amounts of the financial instruments in terms of their relevant currencies and in EGP equivalent.

3.2.2- Interest rate riskThe Bank is exposed to impact of fluctuations in the levels of interest rates prevailing in the market that is the cash flow risk of interest rate represented in the volatility of future cash flow of a financial instrument due to change in the interest rate of the mentioned instrument. Whereas the interest rate is fair value risk is the risk of fluctuations in the value of the financial instrument due to changes in interest rates in the market.The interest margin may rise due to these changes but still the profits may decrease if unexpected movements occur. The board of directors sets limits for the level of difference in the re-pricing of interest rate that the Bank can maintain and Risk department in the Bank daily monitors this.The following table summarizes the extent of the Bank’s exposure to the risk of fluctuations in interest rates that includes the book value of financial instruments divided based on the price of re-pricing dates or maturity dates whichever is sooner.

Financial Indicators07 Financial Indicators 07

3.3- Liquidity RiskLiquidity risk is the risk that the Bank is unable to meet its payment obligations associated with its financial liabilities when they fall due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn.

3.5- Capital ManagementThe Bank’s objectives when managing capital, which consists of another items in addition of owner’s equity stated in balance sheet are:- To comply with the capital requirements in Egypt.- To safeguard the Bank’s ability to continue as an ongoing concern so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and stakeholders.- To maintain a strong capital base to support the development of its business.- Capital adequacy and the use of regulatory capital are monitored daily by the Bank’s management, employing techniques based on the guidelines developed by the Basel Committee as implem ented by the Central Bank Of Egypt, for supervisory purposes. The required information is filed with the Authority on a quarterly basis.Central Bank Of Egypt requires the following:- Hold the minimum level of the issued and paid up capital of EGP 500 Million.- Maintaining a percentage between capital elements and asset and contingent liabilities elements weighted by risk equals to or exceeds 11.25%. The numerator of the capital adequacy ratio consists of the following two tiers:

Tier One:Represented in basic capital which consists of paid-in-capital (after deducting the book value of treasury shares), retained profits and reserves from profit appropriation with the exception of general banking risk reserve less any goodwill previously recognized or any carried over losses and 40% of intangible assets and deferred taxes.The conservative buffer is formed from the Bank’s annual profits as an additional independent pillar of the continuing base capital within the first tranche of the Bank’s capital base and thus to the total standard, and the conservative buffer is originally configured from annual profits but is allowed to be configured if components with the base capital meet this.

Tier Two:Supplementary Capital consists of equivalent of the general risks provision related to creditworthiness bases issued by the Central Bank Of Egypt and not exceeding 1.25% of the total risk weighted assets and contingent liabilities, subordinated loans / deposits’ term which exceed 5 years (with amortization of 20%of their value each year of the last five years of their term) and 45% of the increase between fair value and book value of financial investments available for sale, held to maturity and associates and subsidiaries.When calculating the total numerator of the capital adequacy ratio it should be taken into consideration that the supplementary capital does not exceed in any way the basic capital and that subordinated loans (deposits) do not exceed half of the basic capital.Asset at risk are weighted ranging from zero up to 100% classified in accordance with the nature of the debit side of each asset, to reflect the related credit risks, while taking into consideration cash collaterals. Same treatment is applied on off- balance amounts after making adjustments to reflect the contingent nature and probable losses of these amounts.The Bank has complied with all local capital requirements at June 30,2018 the following table summarizes the components of basic and supplementary capital and capital adequacy ratios as at 30/6/2018.

*Based on consolidated financial statement figures and in accordance with Central Bank of Egypt regulation issued on 24 December 2012.*The decision of the Central Bank of Egypt has been implemented to take into consideration the impact of 50 largest clients on the capital adequacy ratio starting from January 2017.

4 - The significant accounting estimates and assumptionsThe Bank applies estimates and assumptions, which affect the amounts of assets and liabilities to be disclosed within the following financial year. Estimates and assumptions are continuously assessed based on historical experience and other factors as well, including the expectations of future events, which are considered reasonable in the light of available information and surrounding circumstances.

(A) Impairment loss on loans and advancesThe Bank reviews the loans and advances portfolio on at least a quarterly basis to assess impairment.

The Bank applies personal judgment when determine the necessity of recording the impairment charges to the income statement so as to know if there is any reliable data which refer to the existence of a measurable decline in the expected future cash flows of the loans portfolio even before being acquainted with the decline at the level of each loan in the portfolio. These evidences may include observable data, which refer to the occurrence of a negative change in the ability of a portfolio of borrowers to repay the Bank, or local or economic circumstances related to default in the bank’s assets. On scheduling future

cash flows, the management use estimates based on prior experience of losses of assets with credit risk characteristics in the presence of objective evidences that refer to impairment similar to those included in the portfolio.

The method and assumptions used in estimating the amount and timing of future cash flows are reviewed on a regular basis to minimize any differences between estimated and actual losses based on expertise.

(B) Impairment in equity instruments investments available for saleThe Bank determine impairment in equity’s instruments’ investments available for sale when there is a significant or prolonged decline in their fair value below their cost.

Determining whether the decrease is significant or prolonged depends on personal judgment. To reach this judgment the Bank estimates- among other factors- the usual volatility of the share price. Additionally, there could be impairment if there is evidence on the existence of deterioration in the financial position of the invested company or in its operating and financing cash flows or if there is deterioration in the industry’s or sector’s performance or in case of changes in technology.

(C) The fair value of derivativesThe fair values of financial instruments, which are not listed in active markets, is identified by applying valuation methods. When such methods are used to identify fair value, they are tested and reviewed periodically by qualified personnel who are independent of the body that prepared them.

(D) Financial investments held - to- maturityThe non-derivative financial assets with payments and maturity dates that are fixed or determinable are classified as financial investments held to maturity, and this classification requires to a great extent the application of personal judgment and to reach such decision the Bank evaluates the intention and ability to hold these investments until maturity. If the Bank fails to hold these investments until maturity date, with the exception of very special cases such as selling an insignificant amount near maturity, then these investments, which were classified held to maturity, should be reclassified available for sale investments.

Consequently, these investments shall be measured by fair value and not by amortized cost in addition to suspension of classifying any investments under the mentioned item.

(E) Income taxesThe Bank records the liabilities of the expected results of tax examination according to estimates of the probability of the emergence of additional taxes. When there is, a variance between the final result of taxes and the amounts previously recorded then these variances will affect the income tax and deferred tax provision for the year in which the variance has been identified.

17- Financial DerivativesCurrency Swap / yield contracts represent commitments to exchange a range of cash flows. These contracts result in currency exchange or rates (Fixed rate with variable rate, for example) or (all with swap contracts and currencies).

The actual exchange of contract amounts is only in certain currency swap contracts. The Bank's credit risk is the potential cost of replacing the swap contracts if the other parties fail to perform their obligations.

This risk is monitored on an ongoing basis in comparison to the fair value and by contractual amount , and for credit risk control The Bank evaluates the counterparty using the same techniques used in the lending activities.

The following are the fair values of derivatives as at June 30, 2018:
