Chairperson’s Statement

in Kiulap was an important step in the expansion of
our activities in this business segment. During the
year, we introduced our first Certificate of Deposit
and several new investment products. In addition,
we organized the first Baiduri Expo in August 2007
where free financial health checks and consultation
were provided to customers.
The new Baiduri Prestige programme was launched
in June 2007 with enhanced features and benefits.
In card services, we launched the RBA American
Express card, the first and only airline co-brand
card in Brunei.
We continued to develop our specialized and
structured financial services to medium and large
corporate bodies in support of the country’s
economic diversification objectives. In addition to
its participation in the financing schemes offered
by the Ministry of Industry and Primary Resources

Programme to assist the growth of local small
businesses.

to present the Annual Report and Accounts of

our services. Under e-channels, we introduced the
first and only multi-currency ATM in the Sultanate,
located at Brunei International Airport. New
features like cash and cheque deposit functions

locations increased to twenty-seven. We launched

and perform banking and other services using IVR
technology.

CONSUMER FINANCING – BAIDURI FINANCE
Living up to its name as the market leader in automobile financing, Baiduri Finance implemented an on-line
Enhanced Hire Purchase Delivery System, which reduced drastically the processing time for hire purchase approvals
as well as payment s to motor dealers, creating a win-win-win for Baiduri Finance, automobile buyers and dealers.
This has resulted in yet another year of excellent financial per formance, recording an increase of 38% net income
before administrative expenses and pre-tax profit increase of 80% over 2006.
CORPORATE BANKING
Since 2001, under the Enterprise Facilitation
Scheme and the Micro-Credit Scheme, both in
collaboration with the Ministry of Industry and
Primary Resources, we have assisted many local
entrepreneurs in alleviating financial difficulties
faced by them in starting businesses.
2008 is the fifth year that Baiduri Bank is in
par tnership in a Brunei SME’s Par tnership
Programme with Brunei Shell Petroleum, Brunei
Economic Development Board and Asia Inc Forum.
This programme is aimed to continuously nurture
Brunei SMEs by helping groom them and their
businesses through business awards, networking
gatherings and business forums and workshops.
RETAIL LENDING
In 2007, with a complete range of products and service offerings, the Bank focused on direct sales activities working
closely with third-party referral intermediaries and strong merchant base. The Bank also capitalized on its strong
customer base to offer customized mortgage loan schemes to staff of selected companies.
Various sales channels were used in achieving the excellent results, mainly with the recruitment of a direct sales
team who reached out to cater to specific various needs and requirements of an individual and then tailoring or
customizing the loan to suit the needs.
In addition, Baiduri Bank has adopted the practice of offering financial planning health checks before embarking
to decisions of a loan.

Business Highlights
WEALTH MANAGEMENT
Baiduri Bank set up a dedicated Wealth
Management Unit in March 2006 to spearhead
this business. Being an independent party,
the Bank adopts a relatively neutral approach
in selecting products that match the needs,
preferences and risk profiles of the Bruneian
investors.
In addition, adopting best practices from leading
banks and insurance companies, Baiduri Bank
rolled out financial health checks and risk profiling
for its customers across all branches. At the same
time, a large group of frontline staff members
were selected to undergo financial planning
certification offered by the Singapore College
of Insurance. By end 2007, Baiduri Bank has 37
trained financial planners, the largest number among banks in Brunei Darussalam.
During 2007, new funds and certificates of deposit were launched with increased sales activities. These included
the Singapore Dividend Growth, the Golden China Fund and Global Luxury and Lifestyle Fund under SGAM.
A full-fledged Wealth Management Centre was set up on the second floor of the newly relocated Kiulap Branch
offering free consultation services by the bank’s personal financial planners.
CARD SERVICES
Baiduri Card Centre delivered excellent financial performance in 2007. Through the acquisition of the American
Express franchise in Brunei, Baiduri Bank has significantly increased its merchant sales volume and grown its credit
card base, thus further strengthening its leadership position in the card business. Baiduri Bank is the first and
only bank in Brunei to hold franchises for all three leading payment card brands, namely Visa, MasterCard and
American Express, for both card issuing and merchant acquiring businesses.
Baiduri Card Centre is the first in the country to launch EMV card acceptance service allowing merchants to accept
EMV chip cards for payment without risk of fraud. It is also the first to issue the EMV-compliant Visa Platinum Card,

worldwide person-to-person remittance service through its branch
network in Brunei in November 2005. A big bang approach was
adopted for the roll-out within a span of two months. Express
counters and specially designed Western Union booths were
installed in branches with heavy traffic. This was coupled with
intensive marketing efforts to heighten awareness and encourage
usage. Western Union is the preferred remittance service in Brunei
mainly because of its reputation for speed and security.

CARING FOR THE LESS FORTUNATE

Independent Auditors’ Report
to the members of Baiduri Bank Berhad
and subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Baiduri Bank Berhad (the Company) and its subsidiaries
(the Group) which comprise the balance sheets of the Company and the Group as at December 31, 2007, the profit
and loss statements, statements of changes in equity and cash flows statements of the Company and the Group
for the year then ended, and summary of significant accounting policies and other explanary notes, as set out on
pages 67 to 81.
Directors’ Responsibility
The Company’s directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with the provisions of Brunei Darussalam Companies Act, Cap. 39 (the “Act”), the Brunei Darussalam
Banking Order 2006 (the “Order”), and generally accepted accounting principles in Brunei Darussalam. This
responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and
fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error;
selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable
in the circumstances.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements
are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of
the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for
the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made
by directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion,
a)
the financial statements of the Company and consolidated financial statements of the Group are properly
drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act, the Order and generally accepted accounting principles in
Brunei Darussalam so as to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and the Group as
at December 31, 2007 and of the results, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company and the Group
for the year ended on that date;
b)
the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by the Company and its subsidiaries have
been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act; and
c)
we have obtained all the information and explanations that we required.

OPERATIONS
The principal activities of the Company and the Group are to carry on the business of banking and related
financial services including dealing in investment securities, stock broking and e-financial services. There
have been no significant changes in the nature of these activities during the financial year.
2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention modified
by the revaluation of certain treasury instruments to market value and are expressed in Brunei Darussalam
dollars.
Group Financial Statements
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries
for the financial year December 31, 2007. The subsidiaries consolidated are entities in which the Group has
an equity interest of more than 50% in the issued share capital at the balance sheet date or has power to
exercise control over the operations.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which effective control is acquired by the Group. Inter company
transactions are eliminated on consolidation and the consolidated financial statements reflect external
transactions only. Where necessary, accounting policies for subsidiary companies have been changed to
ensure consistency with policies adopted by the Group.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on consolidation represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the fair values of the net
identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation.
Goodwill is amortised through the Group income statement over 10 years.
Interest Income and Expense
(i)
Interest income and expenses are recognized in the profit and loss statements on an accrual basis.
When an account becomes non-performing, interest is suspended until it is realised on a cash basis.
(ii)
For the finance subsidiary, interest earned on hire purchase and leasing transactions are spread over
the period of the agreements, using the commonly accepted method known as the “Rule-of-78” so as
to produce a constant periodic rate of interest. The income arising therefrom each year comprises
interest in respect of those installments which have become due for payment during the financial year.
The remainder is carried forward as a provision for unearned income.
Loans and Allowance for Bad and Doubtful Receivables
All loans and financing are recognised when cash is advanced to borrowers. Legal fees incurred in securing
a loan and financing are treated as part of the cost of the transaction.
Loans and financing are stated after deduction of allowance for possible losses. These allowances comprise
specific allowances against non-performing receivables and financing and the related interest-in-suspense.
Specific allowance and suspension of interest are made for doubtful receivables and financing which have
been individually reviewed and specifically identified as a bad or doubtful. Known bad receivables are written
off.
An uncollectible loan and financing or portion of a loan and financing classified as bad or doubtful is either
written off or provided for after taking into consideration the realizable value of collateral, if any, when in the
judgement of the management there is no prospect of recovery.

useful lives by the straight line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:Freehold lands and buildings
Leasehold lands and buildings
Leasehold improvements
Computers
Office equipment
Office furniture and fittings
Household furniture and equipment
Motor vehicles
50 years
Over period of the lease
5 years
5 – 8 years
5 years
5 – 10 years

5 years
Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined by reference to their
net book value and are taken into account in determining operating profit.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit and loss statements when the expenditure is
incurred.
Fully depreciated property, plant and equipment are retained in the financial statements until they are
no longer in use.
Investments
(i)
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries in the Company’s financial statements are stated at cost less amounts
written off in recognition of any permanent fall in value.
Dividend income is recorded in the profit and loss statements in the financial year in which a
dividend has been approved by the shareholders in the investee company.
(ii)
Other investments
Quoted and unquoted investments intended to be held for long term are stated at cost less
impairment in value that is other than temporary, determined on an individual investment basis.
Interest earned on other investment is reported as interest income.
Treasury Related Off-Balance Sheet Financing Instruments
Transactions in treasury related off-balance sheet financial instruments including foreign exchange
contracts are valued at market prices if they are for trading purposes and the resultant profits and
losses are taken to the profit and loss statements. Transaction entered into for hedging purposes are
accounted for in a manner consistent with the accounting treatment of the item being hedged.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Acceptances
Acceptances comprise undertakings by the Company to pay bills of exchange drawn on customers. The
Company expec t s the acceptance to be set tled simultaneously with the reimbursement from the customers.
Acceptances are disclosed liabilities with corresponding contra-assets.
Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded in Brunei Darussalam dollars at the rates ruling at the dates of
the transactions. At each balance sheet date, recorded monetary balances that are denominated in foreign
currencies are reported at the rates ruling at the balance sheet date. All realised and unrealised exchange
adjustment gains and losses are dealt with in the profit and loss statements.
Income Tax
Tax expense is determined on the basis of tax effect accounting, using the liability method and it is applied
to all significant timing differences except that a debit balance or a debit to the deferred tax balance is not
carried forward unless there is a reasonable expectation of its realisation.
Employee Benefits
The Company and the Group contribute to the Tabung Amanah Pekerja (“TAP”), a defined contribution plan
regulated and managed by the Government of Brunei Darussalam, which applies to all local employees. The
contributions to TAP are charged to the income statements in the period to which the contribution relate.
The Company also operates a defined retirement fund scheme for its employees, which requires provisions
to be made periodically based on the entitlements of the employees. The provisions are calculated on the
basis of the number of years service of the employees and are charged to the income statements in the
period in which the entitlements arise.

RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
Accepting and managing risk is central to the business of the Group and is an important source of competitive
advantage.
The Board of Directors are accountable for establishing and maintaining an environment that manages risk in
an effective and efficient manner. This includes a robust system of limits, controls and reporting processes.
Management and senior executives track key performance indicators, investigates and reports on effectiveness
of risk management systems to the Board of Directors. The Group’s internal audit department also provide
an independent assessment of this process.
The following discussion on risk management concentrates on the Group’s main areas of risk:
(i)
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss that results from customers failing to meet their obligations. Credit
risk arises primarily from lending-related activities and represents Group’s major risk type.
The Board of Directors approves major prudential policies and limits that govern large customer
exposures and industry concentration. The Board of Directors also appoints independent credit officers
in each business areas. These credit officers would work with the line managers to ensure that approved
policies are applied appropriately and achieve optimal returns on the Group’s risk exposure.
In respect of its lending-related activities, management regularly review the amount of risk accepted in
related to one borrower or groups of borrowers, industry segments, level of non-performing loans and
adequacy of provisioning requirements.
Exposure to credit risk is also managed in part by obtaining collateral. Some of the assets typically
included as collateral are property, assignment of rental income, salary and deposit placement.

RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)
(ii)
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its cashflow obligations as and when they fall
due.
To manage the risk, the Group monitors and maintains sufficient liquid assets to ensure that the liquidity
risk exposure is managed and minimised.
Additionally, the Group has to comply with the regulations and guidelines of Ministry of Finance in
maintaining minimum cash balances with the Ministry of Finance.
(iii)
Interest/Financing Rate Risk
Interest/financing rate risk is the risk of earnings and value of financial instruments caused by fluctuations
in interest/financing rates.
Sensitivity to interest/financing rates arises from the differences in the maturities and re-pricing dates of
assets and liabilities. These differences are monitored and managed by management to ensure that the
risk exposure is minimised. This includes actively reviewing its interest/financing rate to ensure that the
Group receives an optimal and yet competitive interest/financing spread.
