standards as applicable in Pakistan would be effective from the dates mentioned below against the respective standard or interpretation:
Effective date (annual
Standard or Interpretation periods beginning on or after)
IFRS 7 – Financial Instruments : Disclosures – (Amendments) – Amendments enhancing disclosures about offsetting
of financial assets and financial liabilities January 01, 2013
IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements –
Presentation of items of other comprehensive income July 01, 2012
IAS 19 – Employee Benefits – (Revised) January 01, 2013
IAS 32 – Offsetting Financial Assets
and Financial liabilities – (Amendment) January 01, 2014
IFRIC 20 – Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine January 01, 2013 The Group expects that the adoption of the above revision, amendments and interpretation of the standards will not affect the Group’s financial statements in the period of initial application other than the amendments to IAS 19 ‘Employees Benefits’ as described below:
Amendments to IAS 19 range from fundamental changes to simple clarification and re-wording. The significant changes include the following:
- For defined benefit plans, the ability to defer recognition of actuarial gains and losses (i.e., the corridor approach) has been removed. As revised, actuarial gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income when they occur. Amounts recorded in profit and loss are limited to current and past service costs, gains or losses on settlements, and net interest income (expense). All other changes in the net defined benefit asset (liability) are recognised in other comprehensive income with no subsequent recycling to profit and loss.
- The distinction between short-term and other long-term employee benefits will be based on the expected timing of settlement rather than the employee’s entitlement to the benefits.
- Objectives for disclosures of defined benefit plans are explicitly stated in the revised standard, along with new or revised disclosure requirements. These new disclosures include quantitative information of the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to a reasonably possible change in each significant actuarial assumption.
While the Group is currently assessing the full impact of the above amendments which are effective from January 01, 2013 on the financial statements, it is expected that the adoption of the said amendments will result in change in the Group's accounting policy related to recognition of actuarial gains and losses (refer to note 5.12 to the financial statements) to recognise actuarial gains and losses in total in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. The potential impact of the said changes on the financial position and performance for the year 2013 is estimated as under:
Rupees
Net increase / (decrease) in employees' benefit liability (1,783,931)
Net increase / (decrease) in other comprehensive income 984,095
Net increase / (decrease) in profit for the year 799,836
Improvements to IFRS
In addition to the above amendments, improvements to various accounting standards have also been issued by the IASB. Such improvements are generally effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 01, 2013. The Group expects that such improvements to the standards will not have any material impact on the Bank's financial statements in the period of initial application.
Further, following new standards have been issued by IASB which are yet to be notified by the SECP for the purpose of applicability in Pakistan.

recognised in the statement of financial position and are measured in accordance with accounting policies for investment securities. The counterparty liability for amounts received under these agreements is included in borrowings. The difference between sale and repurchase price is treated as mark-up expense and is accrued over the period of the repo agreement.
Repurchase agreement lendings
Securities purchased under agreement to resell at a specified future date (reverse repos) are not recognised in the statement of financial position. Amounts paid under these agreements are included in lendings to financial institutions. The difference between purchase and resale price is treated as mark-up earned and is accrued over the period of the reverse repo agreement.
Securities purchased are not recognised in the consolidated financial statements, unless these are sold to third parties, in which case the obligation to return them is recorded at fair value as a trading liability under borrowings from financial institutions.
5.4 Investments
Investments of the Group, other than investments associates, are classified as held-for-trading, held to maturity and available-for-sale. The management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase.
Held-for-trading
These are securities which are either acquired for generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in market prices, interest rate movements, dealer's margin or are securities included in portfolio in which a pattern of short-term profit taking exists.
Held to maturity
These are securities with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold till maturity.
Available-for-sale
These are investments, other than those in associates, that do not fall under the held-for-trading or held to maturity categories.
Initial measurement
All purchases and sales of investments that require delivery within time frame established by regulations or market conventions are recognised at the trade date. Trade date is the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the investment.
These are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given including, in the case of investments other than held-for-trading, the acquisition cost associated with the investments.
Subsequent measurement Held-for-trading
These are measured at subsequent reporting dates at fair value. Gains and losses on re-measurement are included in the profit and loss account.
Held to maturity
These are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment loss
recognised to reflect irrecoverable amounts. Available-for-sale
Quoted securities classified as available-for-sale investments are measured at subsequent reporting dates at fair value. Any surplus / deficit arising thereon is kept in a separate account shown in the statement of financial position below equity and is taken to the profit and loss account when actually realised upon disposal or when the investment is considered to be impaired.
Unquoted equity securities are valued at the lower of cost and break-up value. The break-up value of these securities is calculated with reference to the net assets of the investee company as per the latest available audited consolidated financial statements. A decline in the carrying value is charged to the profit and loss account. Investments in other unquoted securities are valued at cost less impairment, if any.
Provision for diminution in the value of securities (except term finance certificates) is made for impairment, if any. Provision for diminution in the value of term finance certificates is made as per the ageing criteria prescribed by the Prudential Regulations issued by the SBP.
Investments in Associates
Investments in associates are valued at equity method cost less impairment, if any. A reversal of an impairment loss on associates and subsidiaries is recognised as it arises provided the increased carrying value does not exceed cost.
Gain and losses arising on sale of investments during the year are taken to the profit and loss account.
5.5 Advances
Advances are stated net of general and specific provisions. The specific and general provisions for advances are made in accordance with the requirements of Prudential Regulations and other directives issued by the State Bank of Pakistan and are charged to the profit and loss account. Non-performing loans and advances in respect of which the Bank does not expect any recoveries in future years are written off.
Leases, where the Group transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of an asset are classified as finance leases. A receivable is recognised at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including guaranteed residual value, if any. Unearned finance income is recognised over the term of the lease, so as to produce a constant periodic return on the outstanding net investment in lease.
5.6 Operating fixed assets and depreciation
Owned
Property and equipment, other than leasehold land (which is not depreciated) and capital work in progress, are stated at cost or revalued amount less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Land is carried at revalued amount less impairment losses while capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less impairment losses, if any.
Depreciation is calculated by the Group using the straight line method to write down the cost of assets to their residual values over the estimated useful lives. The rates at which the assets are depreciated are disclosed in note 13.2 to the consolidated financial statements. The residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each statement of financial position date.
Depreciation on additions is charged from the month the assets are available for use while no depreciation is charged in the month in which the assets are disposed off.
Subsequent costs are included in an asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset as appropriate, only when it is probable that future benefits associated with the item will flow to the Bank and the cost of the
recognised in the statement of financial position and are measured in accordance with accounting policies for investment securities. The counterparty liability for amounts received under these agreements is included in borrowings. The difference between sale and repurchase price is treated as mark-up expense and is accrued over the period of the repo agreement.
Repurchase agreement lendings
Securities purchased under agreement to resell at a specified future date (reverse repos) are not recognised in the statement of financial position. Amounts paid under these agreements are included in lendings to financial institutions. The difference between purchase and resale price is treated as mark-up earned and is accrued over the period of the reverse repo agreement.
