Report to Shareholders

Driven by the recovery of the domestic economy and efforts of all staff in 2014, the
Company was able to deliver exceptional results with after-tax profit reaching NT$24.43 billion
for the whole year, representing a growth of 17% over 2013. 2015 will become Jih Sun Holding's
shining moment, because both of its main subsidiaries will strive to achieve further success in
their fields of expertise and aim to broaden their reach towards the Greater China Market. 2014
performance results and 2015 business plans of the Company and its subsidiaries are described as
follows:
1. 2014 performance
(1) Changes to the domestic and foreign financial environment
Taiwan had continued its mild expansion throughout 2014, which was met by
upward adjustments of the growth rate from the Directorate-General of Budget,
Accounting and Statistics (DGBAS). In January 2015, the DGBAS concluded Taiwan's
2014 real GDP growth at 3.74%, surpassing all previous estimates. Contrary to
Taiwan's strong performance, the U.S. had been the only highlight among the world's
major economies. Despite having been struck by a severe blizzard in the beginning of
the year, the U.S began its recovery in the Q2 and reclaimed its position as the main
driving force behind the world's economic growth. Despite the solid performance of
the U.S. economy, conflicts ensued in Ukraine and the Middle East, causing the IMF to
revise down the world's growth forecast from 3.4% in July 2014 to 3.3%.
From a regulatory perspective, FSC has been encouraging Taiwanese financial
institutions to expand outwards into Asia since 2013, given the immense growth
potentials that the region had exhibited. For this reason, a number of policies have been
implemented to support expansions of Taiwanese banks in Asia over the next 3 to 5
years. FSC's policy focus in 2013 had been the banking sector, where it offered
incentives for banks to create new branches or acquire subsidiaries as a means to
expand into Asia. In 2014, FSC's focus had extended to cover securities and insurance
sectors as well.
(2) Changes to the organization
According to the Financial Holding Company Act, business activities of a
financial holding company are confined to the investment and management of
investees. The Company was founded on February 5, 2002. It currently holds
controlling interests over investees including Jih Sun International Commercial Bank
-6-
Ltd. (Jih Sun Bank or the subsidiary bank), Jih Sun Securities Co., Ltd. (Jih Sun
Securities or subsidiary securities firm), and Jih Sun International Property Insurance
Agency Co., Ltd. (Jih Sun Property Insurance Agency or subsidiary property insurance
agency).
Founded on December 8, 1961, Jih Sun Securities is one of the longest standing
securities firms in Taiwan with more than 50 years of history. It attained the stature of
an integrated securities firm in 1989. The company's main business activities comprise
of: securities brokerage, proprietary trading, securities underwriting, fixed income,
derivatives, and sub-brokerage trading of overseas securities. Over the years, the
company has won the trust of investors through its professional knowledge, advanced
equipment, and convenient trade services. In 2013, the company set up a new branch in
Kinmen, which increased its total branch count to 45.
Jih Sun Bank opened for business on April 9, 1992; it was among the first wave
of new banks established under the new regulation. The company's business activities
are centered around lending with plans to expand into the wealth management segment.
Its main services currently include: deposits, remittance, corporate banking, consumer
banking, credit cards, wealth management, trust, treasury investment, and electronic
banking. The Bank had set up Nangang Branch and Tucheng Branch in 2012, and
Luzhou Branch in 2013, which increased its total branch count to 44.
Jih Sun Property Insurance Agency was founded on August 12, 2004, and was
mainly involved in the distribution of property insurance products. The insurance
subsidiary distributes a broad range of property insurance solutions offered by different
companies, including fire, accident, vehicle, engineering, credit, liabilities and other
forms of property insurance policies.
(3) Business plans and results
The Company's subsidiaries have made progress in 2014 with regards to their
expansions into China; Jih Sun Bank had sign an MOU with Chongqing Yijifu
Technology Co., Ltd. for the launch of third party payment services, while Jih Sun
Securities had signed an MOU with Chongqing Liangjiang Financial Development Co.,
Ltd. to set up a fully licensed joint-venture securities firm at Liangjiang New District,
Chongqing City, once the cross-strait service trade agreement has been signed. The
Company has also performed exceptionally in terms of corporate governance, as it was
-7-
rated A++ by the Securities and Futures Institute during its 11th "Information
Disclosure Evaluation" in 2014. In the meantime, Jih Sun Bank received "Young
Entrepreneur Assistance Award" and "Startup Business Assistance Award" from the
Ministry of Economic Affairs for actively participating in the SME Credit Guaranteed
Lending Program, and was ranked third among banking institutions during Global
Views Magazine's "12th Global View 5-star Service Award." As for Jih Sun Securities,
the company was rated an A-grade firm by Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation
during its derivative market maker review.
The Company had effectively executed its business plans in 2014; the following
are detailed descriptions of the progresses made:
1. Banking - setting up Hong Kong office and branch in eastern Taiwan.
The subsidiary bank has established its Hong Kong office and opened for
business on August 29, 2014, according to plan. The branch in eastern Taiwan,
however is still being carefully reviewed.
2. Securities - finding partners to set up fully licensed overseas joint ventures;
engaging Chinese partners via Jih Sun Investment Consulting (Shanghai) for
business development.
In February 2014, the subsidiary securities firm founded Jih Sun Investment
Consulting (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. for the purpose of serving Taiwanese enterprises
and Chinese local companies. In December 2014, Jih Sun Securities signed an
MOU with Chongqing Liangjiang Financial Development Co., Ltd. as a
commitment to founding fully licensed joint ventures in China, among other
collaborations in the banking services.
3. Implementation of employee career development and job rotation programs
that build up employees' skills.
A series of courses have been launched to train employees of 7 different job
roles, including: CSR, consumer banking AO, consumer credit approver, corporate
banking RM, corporate banking approver, proprietary trading, and financial
management. In addition, courses were arranged to help employees attain
certification in foreign currency, property insurance, and life insurance services, and
prepare them for the next stage of their careers.
-8-
4. Adjust accounting policies and internal control procedures in accordance with
IFRS9. Revise the classification of financial assets and evaluate losses on loans
and receivables ahead of the new standards. Adopt an expected loss model
instead of the historical model and simulate impacts of regulatory changes on
the Company and its subsidiaries.
Given the fact that IFRS9 has been postponed until 2018, the Company will
continue to keep track and plan ahead of the standards, and adjust its accounting
policies and internal control procedures accordingly.
5. Virtualization and centralization of computer servers.
The IT department has set up a virtual server and a database center, and is
currently consolidating system and database servers to achieve centralized
management while reducing operating costs.
6. Supervise subsidiaries in the development of differentiated electronic services
for e-commerce.
All subsidiaries have adhered to their plans to develop differentiated electronic
platforms that will help boost e-commerce both in volume and in quality.
(4) Revenues, expenses, and profitability analysis
Driven by the recovery of the domestic economy, the Company was able to deliver
exceptional results with after-tax profit reaching NT$2.443 billion in 2014, representing
a growth of 17% over 2013. The Company generated NT$2.522 billion in revenues
during 2014, of which NT$2.5 billion were investment gains recognized using the
equity method. Operating expenses amounted to NT$83 million while interest expense,
other expenses and losses totaled NT$37 million. Income tax benefit totaled NT$41
million, which resulted in an after-tax profit of NT$2.443 billion. This was equivalent to
an after-tax earnings per share of NT$0.76, a return on asset of 6.06%, and a return on
equity of 7.03%. The Company's business plans were considered to have been soundly
executed.
Jih Sun Bank has shown continuous improvements in its performance; in 2014, the
Bank delivered: NT$2.336 billion in net interest revenue, NT$1.576 billion in
non-interest net revenue, NT$3.912 billion in total net revenue, NT$2.837 billion in
operating expenses, NT$288 million in bad debt reversal, NT$3 million in income tax
expense, NT$1.263 billion in after-tax profit, and an EPS of NT$0.8. It had met its
-9-
target after-tax profit. In addition, Jih Sun Bank's control over asset quality has
improved progressively and in many ways surpassed peer average. Although capital
adequacy ratio had dropped from 12.61% at 2013 year-end to 11.12% at 2014 year-end
due to development of in-house products, non-performing loan ratios during this period
had dropped from 0.55% to 0.08%, whereas loan loss coverage ratio had increased from
209.94% to 1,355.57%. Both non-performing loan ratio and loan loss coverage ratio had
surpassed peer average.
Performance of Jih Sun Securities was even more stunning; in 2014, the subsidiary
delivered: NT$4.015 billion in net revenues, NT$2.673 billion in operating expenses,
NT$1.342 billion in pre-tax profit, NT$104 million in income tax expense, NT$1.238
billion in after-tax profit, and an EPS of NT$1.07. The amount of after-tax profit earned
was 124% of the targets set for the year. Not only had this performance exceeded the
subsidiary's full-year target, it represented a 58% growth over 2013.
Jih Sun Property Insurance Agency delivered after-tax profits totaling NT$429
thousand in 2014, representing an after-tax earnings per share of NT$1.43.
(5) Business targets, budgets, and execution
Below are the Company's performance targets and achievements in 2014:
1. Maintain stable profits.
The Company delivered an after-tax ROE of 7.03% in 2014, which exceeded
its 6.33％ target. This was mainly due to additional after-tax profits contributed by
the subsidiary securities firm to the group.
2. Improve profitability ranking among peers; aim to achieve top 9 or top 10 in
terms of after-tax ROE, and top 12 or top 13 in terms of after-tax EPS.
The Company delivered an after-tax ROE of 7.03% in 2014, ranking 11th
among peers; the Company's 2014 after-tax EPS amounted to NT$0.76, ranking
12th among peers. The Company had failed to attain its desired ranking in ROE
terms mainly because other financial peers had also improved their performance.
Although the Company's profits had increased in 2014, they did not surpass the
performance of other peers and hence fell short of the desired ROE ranking.
-10-
3. Improve the efficiency at which subsidiaries' capital is used; aim to achieve a
consolidated asset-to-net worth ratio of 7.5 times.
Consolidated asset-to-net worth ratio was calculated at 7.2 times at the end of
2014, which fell short of the Company's target set at 7.5 times. This was largely due
to the lack of growth in Jih Sun Bank's loan portfolio and in Jih Sun Securities'
investment positions.
(6) Research and development
The Company and its subsidiaries are actively invested in the development of new
information systems and risk management tools. In 2014, the Company had undertaken
R&D projects relating to financial market management, strategy research, IT system
development, risk management tools, derivatives, and education & training.
2. Summary of 2015 business plans
Ongoing performance improvements have won the Company the recognition of
Fitch Ratings. On May 26, 2014, the Company and its main subsidiaries were given the
following credit ratings by Fitch Ratings.:
(1) Impacts of the competitive environment, regulatory environment, and
overall business environment
The world economy is expected to continue its recovery throughout 2015.
According to the forecasts made by Global Insight (GI), growth of the global economy
in 2015 may increase by 0.4% to 0.6% compared to 2014, while U.S. and Europe may
improve by as much as 1.0% and 0.5%, respectively, to offset the slowdown in China.
Taiwan may well benefit from this change, but having already delivered strong
performance in 2014, there may be limited room as to how much economic growth can
improve in 2015. According to the latest forecast made by the Directorate-General of
Budget, Accounting and Statistics in November 2014, Taiwan is expected to deliver a
real GDP growth of 3.78% in 2015. Taiwan Institute of Economic Research, on the
other hand, has raised its forecast on Taiwan's economic growth to 3.67% for year
2015, based on the notion that falling oil prices helps boost economic activities.
Overall, economic outlook remains favorable both in the domestic and
international context. However, the U.S. is perhaps the only nation that has been
expected to undergo recovery with much certainty, because the Eurozone remains
troubled by problems involving debt, currency and employment even till this date,
-11-
whereas China's growth has fallen to a slower rate and Japan continues to show
weakened demands. The ending of QE measures and expectations toward an interest
rate hike in the U.S. coupled with expansionary monetary policies in Europe and Japan
will eventually contribute greater uncertainty to global exchange rates, especially for
emerging nations. In the domestic context, the signing of free trade agreement (FTA)
between China and Korea coupled with the formation of the Chinese supply chain will
pose a double impact on Taiwan's exports. Lastly, the government's fiscal shortfalls
may also present limitations to the nation's growth.
According to the FSC's 5-year "Corporate Governance Enhancement Roadmap"
introduced at the end of 2014, TSEC/GTSM listed companies will become subject to
mandatory corporate governance assessments starting in 2015. Under the new policy,
companies will be required to appoint independent directors, broaden the scope of
audit, and implement an electronic voting system for use in shareholder meetings. The
purpose of a corporate governance assessment is to help companies understand how
their organizations are being managed, which in turn facilitates comparison and
competition across peers for the better. Eventually, this assessment will help local
companies connect corporate governance practices with the rest of the world,
benefiting them and the capital market as a whole.
(2) Future strategies
The Company's business activities have been centered around commercial
banking and securities services. It adopts a strategy that focuses on "Rooting,"
"Expanding," and "Balancing" its business activities. "Rooting" involves raising
competitiveness across subsidiaries and finding suitable targets that can be acquired as
a means of growth. "Expanding" involves mainly the extension of core services into
the overseas market. Lastly, "Balancing" promotes the idea of growing the Company's
business activities in a balanced manner that is sustainable over the future.
(3) Key operating policies
The Company has set its goals to "become customers' most trusted financial
partner" and adopted a business philosophy that emphasizes on "customer service,
trustworthiness, teamwork and harmony." Below are the operating guidelines that the
Company has developed based on its strategies:
1. Strengthen financial structure via improved profitability.
-12-
2. Reduce business risks with enhanced risk management
3. Reduce operating costs
4. Raise service quality via innovation
(4) Operating policies and plans
The Company holds controlling interests in Jih Sun International Commercial
Bank Ltd., Jih Sun Securities Co., Ltd., and Jih Sun International Property Insurance
Agency Co., Ltd. The subsidiary bank and securities firm are the Company's primary
business focus. As for Jih Sun International Property Insurance Agency, the company
will continue to operate on its current base without any major developments planned.
2015 will undoubtedly become Jih Sun Holding's shining moment, because both of its
main subsidiaries will strive to achieve further success in their fields of expertise and
aim to broaden their reach towards the Greater China Market. Below is a description of
the business plans adopted by the Company, the banking subsidiary, and the securities
subsidiary.
1. Strengthen financial structure via improved profitability
To improve financial position, the Bank will actively supervise the performance
and profitability of its subsidiaries and use cash dividends received as a source of
working capital for the parent company. Meanwhile, the Company will carefully
evaluate all possible sources of capital that can be used to enhance its financial
structure.
To effectively reduce business risks and facilitate decision-making, steps will be
taken to continually improve the Company's risk management policies, procedures,
tools and information.
3. Raise operating performance via reduce operating costs
To effectively reduce operating costs, business units will be making collective
purchases for greater bargaining power. Furthermore, the IT department will
continue to virtualize and centralize the database server, using one sizable
machine to host the needs of all different applications for lesser costs.
-13-
In terms of e-commerce, the Bank will continue to invest in new systems and new
functions, and create a digital platform that distinguishes itself from competitors.
These new features may include trading, mobile, and social network services for
the securities sector, and mobile payment, mobile banking and webATM for the
banking sector. Meanwhile, the Bank will strive to make good use of mobile tools
and technologies to promote management and efficiency within the organization,
and raise customers' satisfaction outside the organization.
(5) Business targets
The global economic outlook remains favorable in 2015, as the world's major
economies are still in the state of recovery. Taiwan may well benefit from this
recovery and achieve an estimated growth of 3.67% in 2015, according to the estimates
made by Taiwan Institute of Economic Research. Although we are committed to
delivering better performance, we remain conservative in setting our business targets
for 2015:
1. Maintain profit growth; aim to raise after-tax ROE to 6.63% or above.
2. Improve profitability ranking among peers; aim to achieve top 9 or top 10 in terms
of after-tax ROE, and top 12 or top 13 in terms of after-tax EPS.
3. Improve the efficiency at which subsidiaries' capital is used; aim to achieve a
3. Credit rating
Ongoing performance improvements have won the Company the recognition of Fitch
Ratings. The Company and its main subsidiaries were previously rated Fitch on January 9,
2013; and Fitch had later confirmed on December 18, 2013, that the following ratings
remained effective:
1. Jih Sun Holding - awarded a domestic long-term rating of A-(twn), a domestic
short-term rating of F2(twn), and a stable outlook.
2. Jih Sun Bank - awarded a domestic long-term rating of A-(twn), a domestic short-term
rating of F2(twn), and a stable outlook.
3. Jih Sun Securities - awarded a domestic long-term rating of A(twn), a domestic
short-term rating of F1(twn), and a stable outlook.
-14-
This concludes the report of our business performance for the previous year and
prospects for the upcoming year. We are grateful to shareholders' long-time support over
the years and wish to have your continual encouragement. We give you our best regards
for the upcoming future.

Note 1: The remuneration to the drivers amounts to NT$0.
Note 2: The basis of remuneration disclosed above is different according to the basis of the income tax law; hence, the above table has been prepared solely for information
disclosure, and not for tax purposes.
Note 3: The Company’s Board of Directors is organized by juristic (corporate) director representatives with (8 seats) and independent directors (3 seats), 11 seats in total. The
remuneration as officially resolved in the shareholders’ meeting amounts to NT$5.5 million, i.e., NT$500,000 per director/independent director, including juristic (corporate)
director representatives (8 seats) who receive a total of NT$4 million which, nevertheless, belongs to the juristic (corporate) entities represented by them. A total of 3
independent directors received NT$1.5 million.
Note 4: All pension provisions and contributions are expensed as incurred.
Note 5: Since the Company did not incur a net loss after tax in the last year, it was not required to disclose individually the remuneration made to the Directors; furthermore, none of
the Directors received remuneration from invested businesses other than subsidiaries, and thus are not required to disclose details of remuneration received.

and the year of retirement is based on the actual number of days outstanding.
The issuance date is defined as the date the capital is raised.
Article 23: Any earnings remaining after the closure of the current fiscal
year are subject to tax and reimbursement of previous losses, followed by the
provision of statutory earnings reserve and special earnings reserve as required
by law. Any earnings remaining are then subject to the provision of an
employees’ bonus of no less than 0.01%; the residual amount will be added to
undistributed earnings accumulated from previous years, and based on which
the Board of Directors will submit an earnings appropriation proposal for the
-106-
shareholders’ resolution on the final distribution. The Company provides for

3. Derivatives and services planned for the future
(1)
Securities brokerage:
A. Brokerage services
Expand business in support of the authority's stock market incentives
a. Support to FSC's globalization measures: plans are being
formulated to attract more foreign investors (including Mainland
residents) into Taiwan's stock market. The plan will take into
account existing restrictions and policies on foreigners' investments,
and will be made to comply with "Act Government Relations
Between People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area" and
relevant laws.
b. The authority's permission on derivative day-trading will give
investors greater flexibility when hedging or leveraging investment
performance.
c. Major rule changes to Taiwan's stock market: FSC has made a
preliminary decision to widen the daily gain/loss limit from 7% to
10% for all TSEC and GTSM listed shares. In addition to widening
the daily gain/loss limit and removing margin trading restrictions on
natural person traders, other stock market incentives such as trade
hour extension, short sale limits, day trades, margin maintenance
ratios etc. are also currently under discussion. In the future, Jih Sun
Securities will support the authority's new measures and provide
investors with a more flexible and diverse platform to trade in.
B. International businesses
a. Applying for the service of Overseas Securities Unit (OSU): By
offering the service of Overseas Securities Unit (OSU), the
Company hopes it can provide a wider variety of products and
services for international funds and expand the scope of service and
international competitiveness at Jih Sun Securities.
b. Improving the “Global Gateway” function of the electronic trading
platform: In the past year, competitors have been developing
-113-
integrated quotation/order placing systems that cover stock markets
in the US and Hong Kong. In the future, Jih Sun will commit more
resources to introduce professional information systems and
integrate the existing functions of order placing, quotation, and
account inquiry in Global Gateway so that the Company can offer a
more complete and stable quotation and order placing system.
c. Introducing a mobile device platform to create a quotation and
order placing system for US and Hong Kong stock markets: Mobile
devices are a global trend. In the future, the Company plans to add
an order placing and quotation system for mobile devices such as
phones and tablets so that customers will have a more convenient
order-placing tool.
d. Adding offshore structured product service; providing a wide range
of products for customers and achieving the service goal of
well-rounded asset allocation.
e. By signing competitive upstream contracts with sub-brokerage
dealers, the Company will continue to provide a wide selection of
products and trading markets.
a. The launch of offshore securities unit (OSU) enables the group with
broader and better quality services for high net worth customers
local and abroad.
b. More varieties of offshore structured instruments will be introduced
to satisfy customers' investment and asset allocation needs.
c. By engaging world-renowned financial institutions in collaborative
agreements, the group will be able to broaden its product line and
market exposure.
C. Wealth management business
Subsequent enhancements will include the integration of a trust
service platform, which creates opportunities for consultation on asset
allocation and financial planning, as well as financial product marketing
through the form of trust, thereby giving customers more flexibility and
variety to their financial options, to meet different periods, different
-114-
customers and different needs, thereby securing the stable asset
allocation of the Company’s customers.
With respect to customized services, the Company has
implemented a CRM system to provide in-depth knowledge on
customers’ status. This knowledge will facilitate effective integration of
consultation, derivatives, futures brokerage, and other partners, thereby
enabling the development of customized financial products targeted to
satisfy specific customer groups and take initiative in creating services
desired by customers to achieve differentiated, exclusive service
standards.
Since the launch of trust services in January 2014, the company
has devoted substantial resources to providing customers with
comprehensive wealth management services. In response to the new
digital lifestyle, the company has introduced online wealth management
services since December to provide customers with more immediate
product information as well as a more user-friendly trading platform.
In terms of new services, the company will be implementing a
more robust customer relationship management (CRM) system that
assists customers with more efficient asset allocation and investment
suggestions. In addition, services such as collective account
management, discretionary insurance, and multidimensional wealth
management are currently being planned.
(2)
Proprietary trading: To invest into overseas markets depending on the
extent of deregulation. Apart from directional trading, the Company will
also develop strategic trading and other means to maximize profitability.
(3)
Fixed income:
The competent authority has been deregulating rules on bonds
denominated in foreign currencies and providing greater room of trading
and sales for bond denominated in foreign currencies. The Company will
develop more diverse bond products denominated in foreign currencies and
expand the sales network of institutional investors to provide a wider range
of bond products and enhance profit of bond business. The Competent
-115-
authority is working hard to increase the issuing volume of Formosa bonds
and encouraging underwriters to help expand the size of this market. The
Company will commit manpower to expand the underwriting and trading
volume of this market.
The regulations and implementation details for another international
securities branch office Unit were released in December 2013. The
Company will march toward the goal of providing an overseas platform for
securities trading and wealth management. The Company will provide a
wider range of overseas bond products to satisfy the wealth management
needs of customers and be more exposed to the international market.
As part of the government's Capital Importation initiatives, the
authority has been actively removing restrictions previously imposed on
foreign currencies in an attempt to attract foreign financial transactions
back into Taiwan, and thereby create business opportunities for local
financial institutions. In the future, the company will be sourcing a broader
range of foreign currency-denominated bonds and introducing new sales
networks to give corporate customers more bond varieties to choose from.
With the availability of offshore securities unit (OSU), the company will
aim to develop sales talents that are well-connected to customers
throughout China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and delve deeper into the laws
of the Chinese capital market to better assist customers in maintaining the
best capital structure and raising the capital they need.
(4)
Capital market: As the competent authority opens the business of OSU and
encourages the foreign enterprises to list their stock in TWSE/GTSM, the
Company will explore business opportunities in the underwriting of
international convertible bonds denominated in foreign currencies, attract
primary listing of foreign enterprises, and promote the financial consulting
business at home and abroad so that we can offer the best services when
enterprises enter capital markets.
(5)
Derivatives products: With the competent authority’s approval of new
warrants, we will be able to offer customers broader ranges of services, and
seek to enhance risk management and control and generate stable earnings
-116-

also continue design and provide diversified stock equity linked products
based on customers’ needs.
(6)

given the growing popularity of mobile devices, the company will be
taking steps to enhance the compatibility of its online services across
different platforms and devices. These services will be integrated with
personalized information to deliver better user experience, whereas a
customer service web page will be created with FAQ section, search
engine, and online assistant to answer customers' queries at any time of
the year.
B. GTS quotation: the new quotation interface, developed using the latest
technology, integrates functionalities of the old version and makes more
efficient use of system resources. The interface is available in
Traditional Chinese/Simplified Chinese/English and is able to run on
non-Microsoft browsers without the customers having to download any
additional software. Given the growing number of users, the company
will focus on optimizing user experience, service capacity, and system
stability to satisfy customers' needs.
C. Upgrades to sub-brokerage services: the company will provide
customers with an optimized online sub-brokerage trade platform that
not only is easy to use, but has the ability to integrate international stock

Treasury business
A. Treasury business:
The Bank adopts the following investment strategies to accommodate
the different characteristics of the capital market:
a. Foreign exchange market: To aim to raise profitability; flexibly
adjust foreign currency positions and authorized limits; to comply
with risk management policies; achieve profitability growth.
b. Interest rate market: The trading volume of Taiwan’s bond market
has been shrinking year after year; therefore, the trading range is
limited. The Bank in the future will focus on foreign currency bonds
and appropriately trade the interest rate derivatives. Investments in
Mainland China’s interbank bond market are expected to be
initiated this year with a focus mainly on treasury bonds trading and
with a support of the financial bonds of the four major banks in
order to improve the source of profit and the diversification of assets
allocation.
c. Equity market: Through Engaging in investment and trading of
equity instruments including stock, convertible bonds and options
on futures, the Bank will gradually increase the business volume for
the swap-trading of the convertible bond assets. Through providing
diversified investment portfolios, the Bank will improve the
profitability and stability of the investment in equity instruments.
B. Funding:
We improve the control over the cost of capital and deposit-to-loan ratio
on a bank-wide basis and maintain adequate liquidity reserve. We align
-126-
our funds with operational needs. We respond to and effectively control
market interest rates. We deploy our capital with great flexibility to
increase profits.
C. Risk management:
We follow the guidelines of Group Risk Management and monitor
value at risk (Var), which is generated by the risk management system –
Risk Metrics. The establishment of internal risk management
procedures and the implementation of transaction systems, mid and
back office systems not only improve transaction efficiency, they
provide better risk monitoring.
(1) Treasury investment: the company adopts the following investment
strategies for different sectors of the capital market:
a. Foreign currency: in light of increasing volatility, the Bank will aim
to deliver profits by flexibly adjusting its currency positions and
limits within its risk management guidelines.
b. Interest rate: trade volume of Taiwanese bonds has withered for
quite some years, resulting in lessened volatility and smaller room
for profits. For this reason, the Bank will seek to overweight in
foreign bonds.
Government bonds of high liquidity and credit rating will continue
to be the prime choice; uses of interest rate derivatives may be
considered for greater flexibility.
With respect to convertible bond asset swaps (CBAS), the Bank will
aim to trade or unbundle instruments of good credit rating and
potentials for more diverse asset allocation and income source.
c. Equity: the Bank will be investing in domestic equity, convertible
bonds, and equity-related futures and options in this regard. By
raising holding position on foreign ETFs, the Bank will gain
exposure to a broader region and more diverse instruments, which
eventually lessens the Bank's concentration to a single market and
secures profitability.
-127-
(2) Funding:
The Bank will manage its funding costs and loan-to-deposit ratio
while maintain adequate liquidity reserves to support its operations. In
the meantime, the Bank also aims to profit by adjusting funding
solutions in line with changes in the market rate.
(3) Risk management:
The Bank will follow the guidelines given by Group Risk
Management Division and monitor value at risk (Var) generated by the
risk management system - Risk Metrics. Coupled with the
implementation
of
internal
risk
management
procedures,
the
implementation of transaction systems and mid-office and back-office
systems, the Bank shall be able to trade and monitor risks more
effectively.

Electronic banking business
Electronic banking transactions accounted for 66.56% of the Bank’s
entire transactions in 2013, which indicates that our electronic banking
platform has become a necessity in customers’ financial activities. The
Bank is also dedicated in the development of various e-banking
functionalities, in order to develop the most suitable electronic services for
the public and for corporate customers. The following developments were
planned for the current year:
A. To build a financial trading platform that integrates all parts of the
financial holding group
To meet customer’s comprehensive demands for financial instruments
and wealth management, in addition to over one hundred wealth
management services offered currently, the “WebATM” service is
newly introduced to shorten the collection process and enhance timely
trading in order to attract online shoppers and merchants. The Bank will
continue to introduce more wealth management products and
instruments to deliver more comprehensive and diverse financial
services 24 hours a day.
-128-
B. To enhance the functions of the foreign exchange services
This year, the DBUs are allowed to engage in RMB transactions such as
exchange, wire transfers and time deposits and to provide the service of
full payment in USD to be paid in a day so as to provide customers with
more diverse and convenient wealth management service of foreign
currency.
C. To enhance the service functions of trust business
Through launching the product of “Funds denominated in foreign
currencies issued by the domestic investment trust companies,” the
Bank expands the selections of investment and wealth management for
customers. In addition, the Bank will add the trading function to
overweight in the Fund of Fund (FoF) in the product of “Chih-Fu
Dynamic Locked-return Investment Plan.” Through this plan, the
investors can define the portfolio according to individual risk tolerance,
execute stop profit redemption with efficiency, and gradually earn the
profits to become a top performer.
D. To improve mobile service functions
We have offered the functions of mobile banking such as NTD deposits
account balance, transfer of pre-designated accounts and credit card

electronic banking service anywhere, anytime.

information disclosure of SMEs in bank reconciliations and statement
of cash flows. The Bank also continues to improve internal promotion
of services, gain promotional capabilities and improve the training of
electronic banking for employees to increase sales.
-129-
The Bank has made use of modern digital networks to provide convenient
cash flow services such as: personal/corporate Internet banking, webATM,
mobile banking, and online cash collection. Cash flow services are no longer
confined to physical branches or stores, but instead made accessible via
electronic devices such as PC, laptop, smart phone, tablet, or anything that
connects to the Internet. This frees customers from the constraint of time and
space, allowing them access to the Bank's services anytime, anywhere.
The Bank has been active in the development of electronic banking
solutions to stay ahead of the ongoing trend and satisfy customers' banking needs.
In 2014, electronic banking had accounted for 69.18% of the Bank's total
transactions, which proved itself an inseparable part of customers' financial
activities. For this reason, the Bank has been paying close attention to the
development of electronic banking services and finding ways to make services
more accessible to the public. The following plans have been made for the
current year:
(1)
Foreign currency services
The Internet banking system will feature new functions that allow
consumers to make advanced purchases of foreign currency and inquiries of
exchange rate history. Meanwhile, the mobile banking system will feature a
foreign currency inquiry function that gives customers more convenient
means to access the services required.
(2)
Trust services
New functions will be introduced to enable inquiries on preferred
stock holding positions, transaction records, quotations, and the prospectus.
(3)
Mobile banking services
In addition to existing functions such as NTD deposit inquiry, pre-set
account transfer, card bill payments, credit card inquiries (such as latest
events, statement details, payment records) etc, new features including
foreign account inquiry/transaction and fund inquiry/transaction will also
become available this year.
-130-
(4)
Mobile payment
The Bank has become a member of Taiwan Mobile Payment
Company's "PSP TSM" platform. Customers who apply for "Mobile ATM
card" are able to download an APP called T Wallet over-the-air (OTA)
from "PSP TSM" into their cellphones; once installed, customers are able to
shop at physical merchants using near field communication (NFC) as well
as making purchases, transfers, and payments remotely.
(5)
Corporate Internet banking enhancements
The Bank will continue to provide cash flow services to small and
medium enterprises by bundling Small and Medium Enterprise Credit
Guarantee Fund into its financial solution. Bank reconciliation and cash
flow statements are the two features that have been planned to give SME
entrepreneurs more information about their businesses. In the meantime, the
Bank will continue to provide employees with enhanced training on
electronic banking and thus broaden the scope of their sales efforts.

At the moment, the non-life insurance market is virtually saturated. A
non-life insurance firm when developing new products must call for investments
in research & development costs and call for support of the reinsurance firms
behind it. Besides, the non-life insurance products call for the review process
only for the first license. The products of the same category require only an easy
process with a report. As a result, the non-life insurance firms have been copying
the same products and seldom created new products. In the recent years, only the
medical fault liability insurance, group sportsman injury insurance, pet insurance
have come into being but have seen sluggish sales performance amidst the
limited markets.
-132-
In addition, from the perspective of the insurance agent at the Bank, the
premium and fee income of property insurance products subject to the warranty
period and instrument specifications are much cheaper than the other financial
instruments. While product innovation is hard to come by, how to increase the
fee income has become the most daunting challenge currently faced by the
property insurance agent of the Bank. The Company will carefully partner with
insurance companies that possess strong brand images and highly efficient
cooperation in administrative operation. We will also evaluate whether insurance
companies have packaged their products and granted claims in conformity to
market expectations before providing the sales channels and recommending them
to customers.
Product innovations are rare in the property insurance business not only
because of the costs involved in developing new products, but also because of
imitations from peers. Due to the lack of innovation and ease of price
comparisons, the Company will try to distinguish itself from peers by having
branch employees provide customers with faster quotation and more immediate
responses and more immediate responses, thereby enhancing customers' loyalty.
Customers have become increasingly acceptive of insurance protections in
recent years, which presented a good timing to introduce health insurance
products. In light of this trend, the Company will first aim to enrich its product
line by working with insurance companies that are characterized by solid
reputation and good administrative efficiency. In the meantime, the Bank will
observe how the insurance partner's health insurance products have performed
via the distribution channels and met market's expectations, before referring them
to the Bank's customers.
-133-
(II) Business plan for this year
In prospects for 2014, the domestic and international economy is expected to
recover, but some uncertainties may affect the economic development in the future,
which will also affect the future development of the Company. We will continuously
boost our business performance, work out the targets of our business operation on a
conservative basis. The overall 2014 business operation targets are as follows:
1. Server virtualization and database server centralization.
2. To guide the subsidiaries to plan and develop differentiated electronic trading
services for the purpose of promotions for the e-commerce businesses.
3. To create the career development program for the employees, including the trainings
for the key talents and the backup candidates.
4. Based on the amendments to IFRS No. 9, we will adjust the accounting system and
relevant internal management control procedures. According to the process of the
Statement, we will examine the classifications of the financial assets, the change of
loss evaluation for loans and receivables from historical experience to the expected
loss model, and to simulate the impacts of changes of laws/regulations on the
Company and its subsidiaries.
Although economic outlook remains positive for 2015, there are uncertainties that
may work against the market's expectations and the company's performance as a result.
Although will remain committed in improving our future performance, we have
narrowed the Company's business strategies and plans down to those that are feasible,
as shown below:
1. Strengthen financial structure via improved profitability
To improve financial position, the Bank will actively supervise the performance and
profitability of its subsidiaries and use cash dividends received as a source of
working capital for the parent company. Meanwhile, the Company will carefully
evaluate all possible sources of capital that can be used to enhance its financial
structure.
To effectively reduce business risks and facilitate decision-making, steps will be
taken to continually improve the Company's risk management policies, procedures,
tools and information.
-134-
3. Reduce operating costs
To effectively reduce operating costs, business units will be making collective
purchases for greater bargaining power. Furthermore, the IT department will
continue to virtualize and centralize the database server, using one sizable machine
to host the needs of all different applications for lesser costs.
In terms of e-commerce, the Bank will continue to invest in new systems and new
functions, and create a digital platform that distinguishes itself from competitors.
These new features may include trading, mobile, and social network services for the
securities sector, and mobile payment, mobile banking and webATM for the banking
sector. Meanwhile, the Bank will strive to make good use of mobile tools and
technologies to promote management and efficiency within the organization, and
raise customers' satisfaction outside the organization.
Overall, Taiwan’s economy will benefit from the economic recoveries in the US
and Europe and the opening of the Chinese market. The economy will exit the bottom

Industry overview
Since the “Financial Holding Company Act” was enacted and put into effect in
July 2001, a total of 16 financial holding corporations have applied and been approved
for incorporation. Among the domestic financial holding groups, with the exception of
the Company, Yuanta, and Waterland, domestic financial holding companies tend to
focus on banking or life insurance businesses. With comparative analyses of asset sales
and profitability of the 16 financial holding corporations in Taiwan, the Company might
be relatively smaller in scale, with total assets and shareholder’s equity slightly greater
than the Waterland.
In the domestic banking market, the Taiwan branch of ANZ Bank (Taiwan)
Limited was reorganized as a Taiwan subsidiary in April 2013. The total number of
domestic banks increased to 39. In recent years, domestic banks have been establishing
branches in Mainland China and Southeast Asia actively, participating in equity
investment or directly conducting M&A of the local banks to establish a trans-regional
operating structure. In response to the overseas deployment, many financial holding
companies and banks had arranged a cash capital increase in 2013 to raise funds for
overseas investments and to enrich the banks’ proprietary capital and enhance their
financial structure. Peer companies which completed the fund-raising include Cathay
Financial Holdings for NT$12.7 billion, Shin Kong Financial Holding for NT$6.5
billion, Chinatrust for NT$20 billion, and Mega Financial Holding for NT$21.5 billion.
In the domestic securities market, large securities firms continue to conduct M&A
to enhance their market share. In 2009, KGI Securities Investment Trust Co., Ltd.
merged with Taiwan Securities Co., Ltd., KGI Securities Investment Trust Co. Ltd.
merged with Concord Securities and Waterland Securities merged with Great Wall
Securities. In 2011, Capital Securities merged with International Securities and Yuanta
Securities merged with Polaris Securities. In 2012, Mainland China Development
Financial Holding acquired 50.1% shareholding of KGI Securities and SinoPac
Securities merged with Pacific Securities. In 2013, KGI Securities merged with Grand
Cathay Securities. The trend of centralizing the stock market becomes evident after the
merger and integration of large securities firms. After the merger, Yuanta Securities
now owns the market share of over 13%. KGI Securities, after merging with Grand
Cathay Securities, now owns the market share close to 9%.

To analyze the aspect of the policies and regulations, the “Cross-Strait Services
Trade Agreement” was signed on 21 June 2013. The commitment to open financial
service industry made by both sides is a major progress for cross-strait financial
transactions. Mainland China has made commitments to Taiwan to open insurance,
banking and securities & futures business on 1 item, 6 items, and 8 items. Taiwan has
made commitments to Mainland China to open insurance, banking, and securities &
futures business with 1 item, 4 items, and 4 items. In addition, in terms of accounting
and auditing, Mainland China has made commitments to Taiwan to open 3 items that
contribute to further interaction of the cross-strait financial sectors. In addition to the
items on the ECFA preliminary list, the Financial Supervisory Commission solicits
more preferential terms for our financial industry than any other WTO member
countries, which is helpful in entering the Chinese market. It helps our financial
industry to expand market deployment and operation in Mainland China.
In addition, regarding the promotion of the “Free Economic Pilot Zones (FEPZs),”
the Council for Economic Planning and Development had announced the “Promotion
and Practices of the FEPZs in Phase I” on 8 August 2013. Those which can be promoted
with the amendments to the administrative regulations before passing the “FEPZs
Special Statute,” are listed as the items for promotion in Phase I. In Phase 1, the
restrictions will be lifted through administrative deregulations to promote the free flow
of people, instruments, capital and information, including the amendments to 13
administrative regulations and 112 other promotion practices. The wealth and asset
management business related to financial service will be included in the FEPZs Phase I.
The qualified financial institutions are encouraged to develop financial instruments by
virtual methods and through business and regulatory classifications to be ready for a
more open market, the soon, the better.
Since the implementation of the "Financial Holding Company Act" in July 2001, a
total of 16 financial holding companies have been approved and founded. With the
exception of Jih Sun, Yuanta, and Waterland, domestic financial holding companies
tend to be based upon banking or life insurance services. Judging by asset size,
profitability and other business indicators, the Company's consolidated assets and
shareholders' equity are only slightly larger than Waterland Financial Holdings.

There had been two prominent local mergers in 2014. One of which involved Bank
of Panhsin's general acquisition of all operating and non-reserved assets and liabilities
held by Ninth Credit Cooperative of Taipei on July 21, 2014. After the acquisition,
Bank of Panhsin was able to increase its total assets from NT$162.9 billion to
NT$189.3 billion and gain control to 18 new branches within Taipei City. The other
merger involved acquisition of Cosmos Bank by China Development Financial Holding
Corporation (CDFHC), for which the FSC had approved on July 29, 2014, to proceed
by way of a share exchange. After the share exchange, Cosmos Bank will become a
100%-owned subsidiary of CDFHC. What Cosmos Bank brings to the merger are full
commercial banking service capacity covering everything from corporate banking,
consumer banking, deposits, foreign currencies to wealth management that
complements what CDFHC has to offer. This merger is expected to bring more
comprehensive financial services and increase branch size to 53 nationwide.
In the securities segment, many of the large players have been actively acquiring
smaller businesses not only to increase their local market share, but also to in 2014
extend reach towards the Asian market. One of the above examples was Yuanta Polaris
Securities' attempt to bid for a controlling interest in Tongyang Securities, Korea.
Tongyang Securities was court-auctioned following the bankruptcy announcements
made by two of its largest shareholders, namely Tongyang International and Tongyang
Leisure. In light of this development, Yuanta Polaris Securities had submitted a bid to
the Korean court to acquire a 27.27% ownership interest from the two shareholders.
Meanwhile KGI Securities, a subsidiary of CDFHC, acquired a 100% ownership
interest in AmFraser Securities Pte. Ltd. (AmFraser) through its Singaporean entity KGI Asia (Holdings) Pte. Ltd. The acquired entity is expected to commence wealth
management services in 2015 first half by the latest. The number of securities firms in
Taiwan in January 13 2014 has gradually dwindled in midst of the series of mergers;
however, the founding of Friendly Securities Co., Ltd. in 2014 had brought new energy
into Taiwan's securities services for the first time in more than a decade. Friendly
Securities has had extensive business experience in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan; its
expertise lies particularly in the IPO of A-shares in China. Friendly Securities has been
founded with the goal of becoming an "unconventional" securities firm that assists
Taiwanese enterprises in IPO listing and bridging them to the capital market.

From a regulatory perspective, FSC has also been encouraging Taiwanese financial
institutions to expand outwards into Asia since 2013, given the immense growth
potentials that the region had exhibited. For this reason, a number of policies have been
implemented to support expansions of Taiwanese banks in Asia over the next 3 to 5
years. FSC's policy focus in 2013 had been the banking sector, where it offered
incentives for banks to create new branches or acquire subsidiaries as a means to expand
into Asia. In 2014, FSC's focus had extended to cover securities and insurance sectors
as well.
In terms of foreign regulations, Taiwan has developed collaborative relationship
with the United States on "Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act" (FATCA); on June
23, 2014, the U.S. Department of the Treasury included Taiwan as one of the nations
that are deemed complied with FATCA, thus avoided the 30% tax that would otherwise
be imposed on certain parties because of the act. According to FATCA, Taiwanese
financial institutions are required to obtain a "Global Intermediary Identification
Number" (GIIN) from the U.S. Internal Revenue Services as a proof that they have
complied with the act.
Based on the figures from the TWSE and the GTSM, the total trading volume in
2013 in TWSE and GTSM was NT$23.0406 trillion, declining by 0.8% from the
NT$23.2252 trillion in 2012. In 2013, the TAIEX closed at 8,611.51, an increase of
11.85% from the 7,699.5 in 2012. In 2013, foreign investors made up 24.6% of the
trading volume, a 22.6% increase from the level in 2012.
Major figures of the Taiwanese stock market are as follows. Compared to 2012, in
2013, the market value of publicly traded stocks rose from NT$21.35 trillion to
NT$24.52 trillion, marking an increase of 14.83%; the number of publicly traded
companies rose from 809 to 838; the number of individuals with securities trading
accounts rose from 9.11 million to 9.27 million, marking an increase of 160,000
investors. Daily average trading dollar amount, however, declined from NT$81 billion
to NT$77 billion, or by 4.89%. The number of accounts with active trading as a
percentage of total accounts declined from 22.23% to 20.41%, putting enormous
pressure on the revenue of securities brokerage service. The result was that there were
84 securities brokerage head offices and 956 branch offices at the end of 2013,
declining form the level at the end of 2012.

According to the statistics compiled by Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation
(TSEC) and Gretai Securities Market (GTSM), foreign investors accounted for 23.8%
of all TSEC trade volume in 2014, which was slightly lesser than the 24.6% concluded
in 2013; in dollar terms, foreign investors had overweighted Taiwan's stock market by
NT$388 billion. In 2014, the TAIEX averaged 8992 points, up 11.1% from the 8093
points in 2013. TSEC and GTSM combined a total trade volume of NT$29.52 trillion in
2014, representing a significant increase of 25.6% over the NT$23.51 trillion concluded
in 2013.
Key statistics regarding Taiwan's stock market showed that total market
capitalization had increased from NT$24.5 trillion to NT$26.9 trillion, representing a
9.7% increase in 2014; meanwhile, the number of listed companies had increased from
838 to 854, and the number of securities account holders had increased by 180 thousand
from 927 thousand to 945 thousand. At the end of 2014, there were 81 securities firms
operating 931 branches nationwide; which represented a decrease from the 84 firms and
956 branches registered in 2013. In light of the ongoing merger, the number of
securities firms in Taiwan should continue to fall in 2015.
The pre-tax profits of all domestic banks was NT$257.6 billion in 2013,
representing a 7% growth from the NT$240.1 billion in 2012 that was a record high in
profitability for four consecutive years. The excellent performance of the domestic
banks in profitability was mainly due to the significant profit growth of overseas
branches and OBU. The pre-tax profits of the domestic bank’s overseas branches and
OBU was NT$48 billion in 2011, accounting for 24% of the NT$200 billion generated
by the domestic banks; also, it was NT$74.4 billion in 2012 with a profit ratio as high as
31%. The pre-tax profits was NT$80 billion in 2013 with a profit ratio as high as 32%.
The Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics (DGBAS)
announced on 18 February 2014 that Taiwan’s 2013 economic growth rate was 2.11%,
representing a 0.63% growth from 1.48% in 2012. Although domestic finance and
commodity prices remained stable, the growth momentum of foreign trade was
significantly decreased and the growth rate of production and wages remained unclear,
added to the sluggish domestic demand; however, due to the international economic
recovery, the government is promoting the “Economic momentum enhancement
-145-
program” and accelerate the signing of trade agreements with other countries. Taiwan’s
2014 economic growth momentum will be accelerated moderately. The DGBAS on 18
February 2014 also announced that Taiwan’s GDP was expected to reach 2.82% in
2014.
Along with the cross-strait currency settlement mechanism introduced, the RMB
business is implemented in full scale. The government continues to promote the
“Financial Industry Development Direction and Plan.” The promotion of the financial
industry development policy has been gradually moving towards a planned economy
model. The management model is shifting from eliminating defaults to generating
profits. Each financial policy is becoming more active and open that it is expected to
further enhance the domestic bank’s earnings momentum and the net interest and fee
income growth of the banking sector is expected to remain stable. The overall
profitability of Taiwan’s financial market in 2014 is optimistic.
In 2014, the world economy had underperformed to what the public had expected
by the end of 2013. This was largely due to slower recovery in Europe and sluggish
performance from Japan following the increase of consumption taxes. Although the
United States had shown recovery as expected, it came one quarter too late to provide
any significant boost to the growth of emerging economies.
Taiwan, on the other hand, delivered much better economic performance in 2014
than the year before. On February 16, 2015, the Directorate-General of Budget,
Accounting and Statistics estimated Taiwan's economic growth at 3.74% for 2014,
representing a significant improvement over the 2.11% registered in 2013. According to
the forecasts made by Chung-Hua Institution for Economic Research, the world
economy may only inch forward in 2015 at best, because even if both Japan and the
Eurozone resolve to expansionary measures, the falling oil price will once again put the
two economies in risk of deflation and undermine their recovery. As for the U.S., an
interest rate hike planned sometime over the next year coupled with falling price of oil
and reduced output from U.S. shale gas producers will limit the potentials of the U.S.
economy. Lastly, China lacks the ambition to stimulate its economic growth beyond the
normal rate, therefore growth of the global economy may be as little as 3.00% in 2015.
Taiwan's economic growth will inevitably be affected by this general slowdown, and
according to the DGBAS' forecast, Taiwan may delivered as small a growth as 3.78% in
2015.

Although the overall economy had performed below expectation, the Bank still
managed to hold on to its focus of "management, innovation and growth" and won
"Young Entrepreneur Assistance Award" and "Startup Business Assistance Award"
from the Ministry of Economic Affairs for actively participating in the SME Credit
Guaranteed Lending Program in 2014. Also, the Bank was ranked third among banking
institutions during Global Views Magazine's "12th Global View 5-star Service Award."
This was also the year when we completed setting up our Hong Kong office and took a
giant step toward globalization, and combined new technologies to introduce the
industry's first "SMART BANKING" APP. Our success in 2014 had laid down the
foundation for our future growth. As of the end of 2014, the Bank maintained a capital
adequacy ratio of 11.13%, a performing loan coverage ratio of 1.09%, a non-performing
loan coverage ratio of 1335.57%, a non-performing loan ratio of 0.08%, and delivered
NT$1.264 billion in after-tax profit, which was equivalent to an EPS of NT$0.80.
Despite intensive competition within the domestic banking environment, the Bank had
performed exceptionally and won a sustained long-term credit of "A-(twn)" with a
"stable" outlook from Fitch Ratings.
Although the external environment is expected to remain uncertain and competitive
throughout 2015, the authority's financial liberalization measures should prove
favorable to the banking industry as far as profitability is concerned.

In 2014, the following plans were made with regards to the distribution of the
company's financial products:
1. Securities branches: branches are currently turning towards high-yielding products
such as life insurance; meanwhile, car and motorcycle insurance are two products
that present constant demands in the property insurance category. To complete the
protection package, products such as accidental insurance and travel insurance are
offered as complements.
2. Consumer banking channels: by packaging with mortgage and credit loans, products
such as fire insurance, residential insurance, home appliance insurance, accidental
insurance, and vehicle insurance can all be marketed using an integrated channel,
thereby satisfy customers' needs for one-stop shopping experience.
3. Corporate banking channels: fire insurance, engineering insurance, and liabilities
insurance is marketed to corporate customers as part of Jih Sun's financial solutions
to protect them against risks control to ensure sustainable operations.

and information. It has the potential to increase the number of active
accounts, trade volume, level of satisfaction, revenues and overall business
performance.
Apart from e-commerce, the Bank also monitors changes of online
shopping behaviors in China and Taiwan, and actively searches for
opportunities to form cross-strait alliances.

The development of the insurance agency business will be focused on managing
our existing channels and satisfying the needs of our customers. Product simplicity
and comprehensiveness are the first priorities; combined with securities, banking,
and proper personnel training, we will raise the standards of our financial services
offered to customers.
In terms of coordinated marketing, the incorporation of a financial holding
company allows insurance agents to perform intra-group cross-sell using
subsidiaries’ database. This involves lower customer acquisition costs and better
satisfies consumers’ desires for “one stop shopping” while reducing their searching
costs. Although Internet marketing is growing in popularity, the sale of insurance
products through banking channels remains a stable and irreplaceable option.
1. Short-term objectives:
To introduce simple products that are easy to understand; To guide our sales
staff to their completion of insurance representative proficiency exams, register them
as insurance representatives and enhance training on product knowledge as well as
selling skills, and thereby achieving greater customer penetration. To respond to the
growing variety of products being introduced by insurance providers in light of the
challenging market, we should broaden our insurance partners to capture the latest
market trends, and therefore enriching our products on shelf and ultimately satisfy
consumers’ needs.
2. Medium and long-term objectives:
Develop insurance knowledge across the distribution channel. Identify elite
leaders from top performers and apply advanced training to help them gain more
in-depth knowledge towards insurance, so that they can lead their colleagues to
accomplish more challenging targets accomplish more challenging targets and
develop proper sales habits. Explore greater potentials out of existing customers by
introducing them to the company's rich product line.
-164-
II. Effectiveness of cross-industry marketing and co-marketing
In order to provide more comprehensive products and services to its customers, Jih
Sun Financial Holding Co., Ltd. has established co-marketing counters at certain
branches/branch offices of its subsidiary bank and securities company; this
establishment was intended to achieve reductions in operating costs, resource sharing,
and the full utilization of synergies within a financial holding company.
To provide network services that help customers find what they need quickly, the
Company has integrated all online functions of its subsidiaries into the homepage of Jih
Sun Financial Holding Co., Ltd., thereby providing the customers with easy access to
product information offered by our various subsidiaries and complete transactions
online. This improvement has substantially raised customers’ satisfaction and
contributed favorably to our corporate image.
Our future growth will still be driven by customers’ needs. By adhering to our
service quality standards and ensuring satisfaction in the financial products we offer,
while leveraging on the co-marketing efforts of our subsidiaries, we will improve the
profitability of Jih Sun Financial Holding Co., Ltd. and maximize the benefits of our
integrated marketing strategy.

2. The market’s future supply and demands
Currently there are 16 financial holding companies registered in Taiwan; most
of which have allocated a significant amount of resources in their banking
subsidiaries. The banking industry as a whole remains over-populated with service
providers. In an attempt to compete in size, several securities firms have voluntarily
resolved to merger in recent years; banks, however, have not delivered results in this
respect. As a solution, the Ministry of Finance will be spearheading a number of
mergers involving state-owned banks.
Due to implementation of the new Basel Accord, lack of eligible capital is
likely to become the biggest challenge to local banks. Because the new Basel Accord
(Basel III) requires banks to maintain an increasing capital adequacy ratio,
state-owned banks have been estimated to encounter a shortage of capital by 2016,
meaning that there will be ongoing needs to strengthen capital over the next few
years. Given the general lack of capital among state-owned banks, the Ministry of
Finance is currently working on three solutions to address the problem. The first
solution involves the government making budgets to subscribe to cash issues; the
second solution allows state-owned banks to contribute a lesser portion of their
earnings to the treasury and instead use this money to boost special reserves; the
third solution gives privatized state-owned banks more incentives to issue stock
dividends.
According to the FSC's 5-year "Corporate Governance Enhancement Roadmap"
introduced at the end of 2014, TSEC/GTSM listed companies will become subject to
mandatory corporate governance assessments starting in 2015. Under the new policy,
companies will be required to appoint independent directors, broaden the scope of
audit, and implement an electronic voting system for use in shareholder meetings.
The purpose of a corporate governance assessment is to help companies understand
how their organizations are being managed, which in turn facilitates comparison and
competition across peers for the better. Eventually, this assessment will help local
companies connect corporate governance practices with the rest of the world,
benefiting them and the capital market as a whole.
The world economy is expected to continue its recovery throughout 2015.
According to the forecasts made by Global Insight (GI), growth of the global
economy in 2015 may increase by 0.4% to 0.6% compared to 2014, while U.S. and
Europe may improve by as much as 1.0% and 0.5%, respectively, to offset the
-166-
slowdown in China. Taiwan may well benefit from this change, but having already
delivered strong performance in 2014, there may be limited room as to how much
economic growth can improve in 2015. According to the latest forecast made by the
Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics in November 2014,
Taiwan is expected to deliver a real GDP growth of 3.50% in 2015. Taiwan Institute
of Economic Research, on the other hand, has raised its forecast on Taiwan's
economic growth to 3.67% for year 2015, based on the notion that falling oil prices
helps boost economic activities in January 2015.
Overall, economic outlook remains favorable both in the domestic and
international context in 2015. However, the U.S. is perhaps the only nation that has
been expected to undergo recovery with much certainty, because the Eurozone
remains troubled by problems involving debt, currency and employment even till this
date, whereas China's growth has fallen to a slower rate and Japan continues to show
weakened demands. The ending of QE measures and expectations toward an interest
rate hike in the U.S. coupled with expansionary monetary policies in Europe and
Japan will eventually contribute greater uncertainty to global exchange rates,
especially for emerging nations. In the domestic context, the signing of free trade
agreement (FTA) between China and Korea coupled with the formation of the
Chinese supply chain will pose a double impact on Taiwan's exports. Lastly, the
government's fiscal shortfalls may also present limitations to the nation's growth.
3. Business targets
The global economic outlook remains favorable in 2015, as the world's major
economies are still in the state of recovery. Taiwan may well benefit from this
recovery and achieve an estimated growth of 3.67% in 2015, according to the
estimates made by Taiwan Institute of Economic Research. 2015 will undoubtedly
become Jih Sun Holding's shining moment, because both of its main subsidiaries will
strive to achieve further success in their fields of expertise and aim to broaden their
reach towards the Great China Market. Although we are committed to delivering
better performance, we remain conservative in setting our business targets for 2015:
(1) Maintain profit growth; aim to raise after-tax ROE to 6.63% or above.
(2) Improve profitability ranking among peers; aim to achieve top 9 or top 10 in
terms of after-tax ROE, and top 12 or top 13 in terms of after-tax EPS.
(3) Improve the efficiency at which subsidiaries' capital is used; aim to achieve a

4. Upcoming opportunities and threats, and the responsive strategies
(1) Opportunities
A. New e-commerce opportunities being made available in BANK3.0
The Bank will strive to make good use of mobile tools and technologies to
promote management and efficiency within the organization, and raise
customers' satisfaction outside the organization. In terms of e-commerce, the
Bank will continue to invest in new systems and new functions, and create a
digital platform that distinguishes itself from competitors. These new features
may include trading, mobile, and social network services for the securities
sector, and mobile payment, mobile banking and webATM for the banking
sector.
B. Competitive advantage capable of dominating overseas markets
Jih Sun Securities has already accumulated abundant experience from Taiwan
and Hong Kong, whereas Jih Sun Cresvale's Shanghai office has also built up
complete knowledge bank about the Chinese market. The Chinese government
is expected to release 9~10 licenses for joint-venture securities firms in the
future. By signing MOU with a counterpart in China, Jih Sun Securities may
have access to one of the few fully licensed joint ventures in China.
(2) Threats and responsive measures

Responsive measures
The parent company conducts annual reviews of its business
strategies and plans, and guides subsidiaries toward developing
their own plans as well. Uncertainties and impacts they have on
Taiwan's economic development have been taken into
consideration as one of the key risk assessments.
The parent company will continue to monitor changes in the
external environment and keep track of how subsidiaries have
accomplished their targets. Any abnormalities will be discussed
and addressed immediately in meetings.
The subsidiary bank will continue to adhere to its
"segmentation and innovation" strategies, and find the best mix
of revenues that is sustainable over the long term. Apart from
corporate banking, consumer banking and wealth management,
the Bank will also dedicate a part of its resources to
e-commerce, enhancing system functionalities and introducing
third-party payment among other payment tools for the
convenience of customers.

1. Regions where our primary products (services) are sold (provided)
The Company currently targets the sale (provision) of its primary products
(services) in Taiwan, while overseas markets serve as secondary targets.
Main products and services
Major markets
Securities and futures related businesses
Mainly focused in Taiwan. In terms of world
(brokerage, proprietary trading, underwriting,
market exposure, the Company is able to reach
futures, wealth management, bonds, derivatives, the U.S., Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, U.K.,
stock agency, international business, securities
Australia, South Korea and other markets
investment consultation etc.)
through sub-brokerage.
Securities have long been regarded as a leading economic indicator. According
to the "World Economic Outlook" published by IMF In January 2015, growth
estimates for the global economy had been adjusted downwards by 0.3% to 3.5% in
2015 and 3.7% in 2016; the United States was the only nation to have its GDP
growth raised, by 0.1% to 3.6% in 2015. The world's GDP growth estimates were
revised downwards mainly due to concerns that the U.S. expansion does not
compensate the slowdown in China's growth, its impacts on Asian emerging
economies, weakened prospects in Russia, and the slump experienced by commodity
exporters. Meanwhile, IMF issued a warning to developed nations that they should
maintain a loose monetary policy in order to weather through the risks of deflation.
There are upsides to the world's economy, as falling oil prices are believed to boost
economic activities; meanwhile, downsize risks and changes in market sentiment are
largely connected with performances of individual markets, especially among
emerging economies where the fall of oil price has given rise to concerns toward oil
exporters. For Europe and Japan, stagnant economy and low inflation rates are the
two issues of concern.
3. Business targets
(1) Lead industry peers in terms of financial health.
(2) Achieve excellence in branch efficiency.
(3) Secure profitability from brokerage services.
(4) Explore underwriting opportunities and build up brand image overseas.
-169-
(5) Achieve efficiency in the sale of derivatives and hedging solutions.
4. Upcoming opportunities and threats, and the responsive strategies
(1) Opportunities
A. Policy aspect: the authority has been active in the promotion of Banking 3.0
and opening securities firms to OSU services. In light of this change, the
company will aim to broaden the scope of its securities services, bringing new
products such as derivatives and ETFs into the mix. Meanwhile, the "Stock
Market Enhancement Program" that has been planned for the future will
connect the local market to the rest of the world, and present securities firms
with even greater prospects.
B. Market aspect: the availability of RMB bonds and Formosa bonds not only
gives investors more options to place their assets, but presents securities firms
with viable income sources as well. Listing of T-shares and F-shares should
result in a boost in the company's underwriting services. Lastly, the
introduction of RMB currency futures and other new systems have been
expected to boost the market's trade volumes.
(2) Threats
A. Policies: although capital gains tax on billion-dollar traders has been postponed
until January 1, 2018, the reduction of imputation tax credit and introduction of
affluent tax will pose additional costs for investors and may undermine their
intent in making short-term investments. In addition, introduction of the U.S.
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) will present additional
operating costs to financial institutions. In response to this threat, the company
will first try to maintain interactions with brokerage customers and secure their
relationships, while in the meantime explore other sources of revenue such as
securities lending, dividends etc. to make up for the lost interests and revenue
from long-term investment dividend and interest.
B. Market aspect: Taiwan's stock market, currently dominated by natural-person
investors, may undergo structural changes in the future given the prevailing
disparity of wealth. This development will inevitably limit the company's
commission income. In response to this change, the company will begin
targeting
wealth
management

services
at
corporate
customers
and
natural-person customers, and exploring non-brokerage revenues from sources
such as derivatives, underwriting, and financial consultancy. Meanwhile, we
shall shift our underwriting efforts to prominent industries such as Internet,
communications, biomedicine, culture and creativity.
The Bank holds the license of a commercial bank and offers services throughout
Taiwan. As of the end of 2014, the Bank owned 44 offices in Taiwan. In an attempt
to expand into the Great China Region, the Bank has set up its Hong Kong office on
August 29, 2014, and uses it to source customers from Hong Kong, eastern and
southern China. Currently, the majority of its products are marketed within Taiwan,
whereas overseas markets remain a secondary focus.
(1) As the world economy progresses into an era of mediocrity characterized by low
growth, low inflation, low investments and low interest rate, integration with the
regional economy becomes as necessary as it is viable. To participate in such a
movement, a financial institution needs to raise the strength of its products and
services and constantly innovate to satisfy customers' changing demands.
(2) Evolution of mobile communication and Internet technologies have presented us
with four main trends: social networking, mobile applications, data analysis,
application and cloud computing. In the future, e-commerce should evolve and
become a main driver of economic activities, while at the same time enabling
financial institutions to monitor customers' behaviors and satisfy needs.
(3) FSC has continued its support for the "SME Lending Initiative," under which
banks are encouraged to extend loans to small and medium enterprises within
manageable risks. According to FSC's statistics, local banks had lent a total of
NT$5,163.9 billion to SMEs by the end of December 2014, which was NT$402.9
billion higher than the balance outstanding as at the end of 2013 and represented
an achievement rate of 167.88%. The Bank has set its goals to lend NT$240
billion to SMEs in 2015, which still remains its highest target to date.
(4) Today, the FSC continues to deregulate and open up the market to broader
-171-
opportunities. In terms of opening up to Asian prospects, the FSC has identified
four main strategies that involve: "Overseas Database Development,"
"International
Supervision,"
"Simplifying
Regulatory
Procedures,"
and
"Nurturing Global Talents." With regards to the creation of an "Asia Pacific
Financial Hub," the FSC has introduced offshore banking, securities and
insurance units as means through which local financial institutions may offer
services to overseas customers, and encouraged them to develop financial
products that appeal to Chinese customers. With regards to the execution of
"Capital Importation" initiative, the FSC has devised a 2-stage strategy that
involves deregulation in stage 1 (enabling insurance companies to carry out
transactions at local banks and securities firms), and product innovation in stage 2
(developing innovative abilities via training, investment or acquisition of foreign
financial institutions). In terms of build up a digital financial environment, the
FSC has enabled insurance companies to accept applications online and is
currently exploring solutions to enable online account opening for banking and
securities customers.
3. Business targets
"Segmentation and innovation" will be the main growth strategies in
2015, and for which 6 business goals have been identified: 1. Accumulate
assets and customers for greater profitability. 2. Diversify risks in terms of
product line and region. 3. Maintain pricing discipline for higher spread. 4.
Increase the percentage of risk-less, fee-based income. 5. Enhance customer
relationships. 6. Improve service quality. Competition and uncertainties are
expected to remain throughout 2015, which the Bank will respond by
continually pursue performance growth and achieve the goals it has set.
4. Opportunities, threats and responsive measures
(1) Opportunities
A. In 2014, local banks as a whole delivered an after-tax earning of NT$320
billion, representing a 25% increase over the NT$257.6 billion registered in
2013. This performance marked the 5th consecutive year in which the Bank
has delivered record-high profits.
B. In December 2014, the central bank maintained its rediscount rate unchanged
-172-
at 1.875％ for the 14th consecutive quarter, and hinted that an interest rate
hike is imminent in the future. A high interest rate environment works in favor
of the financial sector.
C. The government has completed a draft regulation for third party payment
services; this new service may provide financial institutions with new sources
of profitability.
D. Ongoing deregulations regarding the types of customers and derivatives
available to OBUs will provide banks with enhanced competitiveness to satisfy
the needs of different customers and eventually increase profits.
E. As part of FSC's "Capital Importation" initiative, banks have been granted the
permission to provide "Information and Consultative Services on Offshore
Derivatives," which not only helps nurture domestic banking talents but also
enables local banks to develop new financial products.
F. The government encourages financial institutions to venture into Asia by
loosening restrictions on overseas investments and mergers.
(2) Threats
A. FSC has required local banks to increase loan loss provisions on mortgages to
1.5% by the end of 2016, which will reduce the amount of profits reported by
banks.
B. A rise in interest rate without a corresponding increase in real salary may
suppress private consumption over the medium term.
C. The government's new fiscal policy will increase income tax rate from 2% to
5% for the banking industry, and hence reduces profitability.
D. Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) had finalized the method of
calculation for liquidity coverage in 2013, and recommended all nations to
adopt the new calculation starting in 2015. FSC and the Central Bank have
assembled a project team and begun drafting standard processes and
calculations that will conform with international practices. Furthermore, banks
have been required to maintain a liquidity coverage of no lesser than 60% in
2015, which increases by 10% each year until 100% by 2019.
E. The new property tax reform, once effected in the near future, is likely to have
an adverse impact on real estate prices, therefore cooling the property market
-173-
even further and reducing the number of new mortgage cases.
F. Banks that have lagged behind in overseas deployment are less able to compete
in overseas businesses.
G. Medium-term and long-term sources of capital will become a major issue if the
bank was to grow its portfolio and establish overseas branches at the same
time.
(3) Responsive measures
A. Adjust the risky asset portfolio in a way that reduces concentration to large
credit customers. Enhance quality of the lending portfolio and aim to raise loan
loss coverage.
B. Enhance capital structure; adopt the Basel III accord to strengthen the Bank's
tolerance to risks.
C. Grow wealth management services by introducing a broad variety of products
and services.
D. Optimize use of capital. Match assets properly with liabilities for greater
efficiency.
E. Manage and cut down expenses to secure earnings.
F. Exercise sales management. Raise productivity to support future growth.
G. Exercise risk management and controls over operations, exposures, and credit
rating.
H. Create a user-oriented electronic service platform where more convenient tools
and broader product varieties can be offered.
I. Create new businesses to join new markets. work with banks in China, Hong
Kong and Japan (Shinsei Bank) to build up international service capabilities.
-174-
Our major markets are Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen, and Matzu.
Following the establishments of financial holding companies, the use of banks
as sales channels has become the latest trend, as well as a major income source, to
Taiwan’s insurance market. The flourish of banking insurance under a financial
holding structure is inevitable. Through cross-selling within the FHC, industry
participants are able to identify potential customers at lower costs; they can also
introduce customized products by packaging different products offered in various
parts of the FHC and compete on product differentiation.
In the aspect of non-life insurance, the insurance premiums and the handling
charges are relatively low when compared with life insurance. Taking the profit gain
into account, the market shall naturally aim at life insurance products that are the
backbone targets and which would inevitably edge out non-life insurance products.
In the non-life insurance agent business, therefore, we shall firmly stick to the ratio
of renewal of the existing business lines (e.g., fire insurance policies for loan clients),
we shall try to provide a variety of market channel customers to more convenient
services in compulsory insurance policies or provide life insurance alternatives.
In the commodity strategies, we shall try to maintain integral commodities on
the shelves. For the same insurance products, we shall try to team up with multiple
firms in close cooperation to provide customers with added choices.
3. Upcoming opportunities and threats, and the responsive strategies.
(1) Opportunities
A. Local residents are placing more emphasis towards risk planning; their
understanding of finance has improved and are more receptive towards
different sales channels. The market has potential for more complex products
and sales methods.
B. Compared to peers that rely solely on one sales channel, the Company has the
advantage to utilize banking and securities networks to distribute its products.
C. The company's main distribution partners are highly receptive towards
property insurance products, and have produced good results in various
campaigns.
-175-
(2) Threats
A. Property insurance products are mostly renewed on a yearly basis. The market
currently has an oversupply of similar products and sales personnel, which
gives customers easy access to price information and thus resulting in price
competition. This reality also has negative impacts on fees earned by insurance
agencies.
B. For fire insurance, property insurance companies need to review premium
rates regularly based on claims made in the last year. Due to reduced loss rate
and intensive peer competition, premium rates on residential fire insurance are
being adjusted downwards year after year, and therefore resulted in lower fees
earned by insurance agencies.
(3) Responsive measures
A. Increase the number of insurance partners. Enrich product line to satisfy
customers’ diverse needs and improve sales.
B. Promote insurance renewals to prevent loss of existing customers. Secure
existing customer base as the main source of income.
C. Enhance insurance selling skills (and complementary selling skills) among
securities brokerage and banking staff.
D. Increase the number of insurance products sold per customer through active
promotion.
E. Encourage employees to purchase insurance coverage from the Company,
thereby secure revenues while offer greater welfare in return.

-179-
V. Corporate responsibility and social morale
Please see P.80~P.84.
VI. IT equipment
(I) IT system structure
1. Most of the Company’s IT systems, including non-account management systems of
its subsidiaries, run on Microsoft structures. the Company’s strategic goal is to
establish a single line of IT supply that consolidates human and technical resources
under unified command; this in turn reduces operating costs and raises overall service
quality.
2. The banking subsidiaries use HP DL980 advanced servers and AS400 medium server
as NTD and foreign currency core bookkeeping and trust fund back office systems
platforms. In addition to the official and testing server for backup locally, the IT
remote backup center is also self-constructed.
3. The securities subsidiary currently uses a Tandem NB and S Series mainframe to
operate its accounts system. Two systems are installed in the northern and middle
regions to provide backup support for each other.
(II)Major events in the past year
1. Establishment of a data warehouse system for the financial holding
Since the completion of a data warehouse system, several data analyses were
added to enhance the effectiveness of product marketing; these functions are listed as
below:
(1) Data inquiry platform
(2) OLAP online analysis
(3) Credit risk inquiry
(4) Reports center
2. Mobile banking system upgrade
In light of rapid advancements in mobile commerce, customers will be given
more rapid means through which to transact. For this purpose, the Bank had begun
planning for the development of a mobile banking system since 2011, and later
completed Web versions for Android and iOS smartphones later in 2012, followed
by the launch of iOS APP in 2013 and Android APP in 2014.
3. Offering greater product and service varieties
-180-
The Bank has launched new products in 2014 to accommodate deregulation
measures such as: day trading, leveraged/reverse ETF, trading of Emerging Stock
Market Funds etc. New deregulations on international securities services have made
it is possible for customers to settle transactions of U.S., Japanese, and Singaporean
stocks in NTD. A series of new upgrades has therefore been planned to improve the
electronic trading system. In terms of wealth management, customers have been
offered a broader range of financial products to choose from and a convenient trading
platform through which to invest. With regards to the mobile platform, the Bank has
introduced a Derivative APP, an Online APP, a SMART APP, and continually
enhanced new functions in its existing WTS APP. Meanwhile, the AP version of the
trading system has been given the ability to trade Emerging Stock Market shares.
4. Major projects
(1) Mobile payment service
The Bank's NFC ATM card has been successfully connected with Taiwan
Mobile Payment Company's mobile payment platform since December 2014,
making it one of the 18 financial institutions to first connect with Taiwan Mobile
Payment Company. The Bank expects to launch new NFC credit cards in the first
half of 2015, by which time customers will be able to download an APP named T
Wallet and apply a 4G USIM from a telecom company to download ATM card
and credit card functions over-the-air (OTA) into their cellphones. After which,
customers may simply run the T Wallet APP and choose the card they want to use.
This type of technological innovation is what the Bank will rely upon to give
customers better user experience.
(2) Development of Jih Sun Cloud
The Company has begun construction of Jih Sun Cloud since the end of
2014. The cloud creates a mobile office environment where consumer banking
officers and financial advisors can access back-office functions using their
handheld devices without the constraint of time and place. This added mobility
has the potential to raise customers' satisfaction towards the Company's services.
(3) Continual system efficiency improvements
To support new policies and products, the company will continue expanding
its existing system and resolving to solutions such as virtual machine and
-181-
centralized database. In addition, the company will be placing order through
Taiwan Futures Exchange's (TFE) "New FIX Platform" in 2015, thereby offering
customers a faster transaction experience with the potential to connect to the
world. An off-site backup unit will also be created to improve the stability and
service quality of the e-commerce website.
(4) Offering more comprehensive and diverse products/services
The Emerging gold spot trading platform had already been made available
in the beginning of 2015; further modifications will be made to accommodate
TFE's new policies. More refinements will be made to the mobile platform, the
AP system and the stock quote function to satisfy customers' needs and provide
them with a friendly trade environment.
5. Information security

to disclosure under Article 46 of the Financial
Holding Company Act.
Variations exceeding 20% in the last 2 years:
1. The increase of the branch’s NPL ratio was mainly because the NPL amount increased by NT$200 million in 2013 as
compared to 2012.
2. The decrease of the asset growth rate was mainly due to the continuing increase of the bond interest rate and the decrease of
the bond investment position.
3. The financial holding company's liabilities as a percentage to assets and net worth had decreased mainly due to lower
balances of related party payables and current income tax liabilities in 2013.
Note: Industry-specific key performance indicators include: loan-to-deposit ratios, NPL ratios, and debt to net worth
ratios for the subsidiary bank; double leverage ratios, market share of assets, and market share of net worth
for the financial holding company; market share of deposits, market share of loans, and capital adequacy
analysis for the subsidiary bank etc.
Note 1: The capital adequacy, market share of assets and market share of net worth in 2012 were calculated in accordance
with the Financial Accounting Standards of the R.O.C. and were not recalculated in accordance with the International
Financial Report Standards.
Note 2: Earnings per common share are presented in dollars, adjusted retrospectively for any capital reduction or capitalized
earnings.
Note 3: The profit and loss of the prior year calculated in accordance with IFRS was not available and therefore was not
counted.
Note 4: Cash flow from operating activities results in a net outflow, and thus not calculated.
Note 5: Information on capital adequacy and business scope were dated December 31, 2014; all remaining financial
information was dated February 28, 2015. Profit growth rate was a full-year estimate based on information as at
February 28, 2015.
-206-
Financial ratios are calculated as follows:
1. Operating efficiency
(1) Total asset turnover = net profit / average total assets.
(2) Loan to deposit ratio (subsidiary bank) = total loan granted/ total deposit received by the
subsidiary bank.
(3) NPL ratio (subsidiary bank) = total NPL/ total loan granted by the subsidiary bank.
(4) Revenues per employee = net profit/ total employees.

expansions into China; Jih Sun Bank had sign an MOU with Chongqing Yijifu
Technology Co., Ltd. for the launch of third party payment services, while Jih Sun
Securities had signed an MOU with Chongqing Liangjiang Financial Development
Co., Ltd. to set up a fully licensed joint-venture securities firm at Liangjiang New

signed. In addition, all business plans made in 2014 had been soundly executed;
below is a description of the various plans taken:
-217-

engaging Chinese partners via Jih Jia Investment Consultancy for business
development.
In February 2014, the subsidiary securities firm founded Jih Sun

Taiwanese enterprises and Chinese local companies. In December 2014, Jih Sun
Securities signed an MOU with Chongqing Liangjiang Financial Development
Co., Ltd. as a commitment to founding fully licensed joint ventures in China,

3. Implementation of employee career development and job rotation programs
that build up employees' skills.
A series of courses have been launched to train employees of 7 different job
roles, including: CSR, consumer banking AO, consumer credit approver,
corporate banking RM, corporate banking approver, proprietary trading, and
financial management. In addition, courses were arranged to help employees
attain certification in foreign currency, property insurance, and life insurance
services, and prepare them for the next stage of their careers.
4. Adjust accounting policies and internal control procedures in accordance
with IFRS9.
Revise the classification of financial assets and evaluate losses on loans and
receivables ahead of the new standards. Adopt an expected loss model instead of
the historical model and simulate impacts of regulatory changes on the
Company and its subsidiaries.
Given the fact that IFRS9 has been postponed until 2018, the company will
continue to keep track and plan ahead of the standards, and adjust its accounting
policies and internal control procedures accordingly.

2. Risk management policy
The Company’s risk management principles
(1) To create independent and effective risk management framework and
policies, which can be used to evaluate and monitor the risk tolerance and
exposure within the Company and its subsidiaries, to determine proper
responsive actions and ensure compliance to risk management procedures.
(2) To build a scientific risk management system that can be used to identify,
analyze, assess, and handle the major risks that are likely to result in
negative impacts to the Company and its subsidiaries. This system can also
help decide how to respond to the risks involved and limit the impacts
within tolerable levels.
-220-
(II) The methods adopted by the financial holding company and its
subsidiaries for assessing and controlling risks, and their quantified
risk exposures
1. General disclosure
(1) The Company’s risk management principles
A. To establish a scientific risk management system that analyzes risk
objectively and helps achieve reasonable returns.
B. An efficient risk management structure allows each business unit to
perform its daily operations while a dedicated risk management division
within the unit reports regularly to the Board of Directors for immediate
and effective risk monitoring. Upon discovery of substantial risk
exposure that is potentially detrimental to finance, operations, or
regulatory compliance, immediate actions must be taken and reported to
the Board of Directors.
C. To adopt an overall risk management system that monitors the capital
adequacy of the Company and its subsidiaries based on their business
scales, credit risks, market risks, operational risks, and future prospects;
to supervise the Company’s total exposure and allocate investments
based on its distinct capital and debt characteristics.
(2) There are two characteristics of the Company’s risk management system
A. Timeliness:
To raises alerts, responsive actions, and avoidance measures in a timely
manner to all possible risks involved during the decision-making
processes undertaken by the Company and its subsidiaries.
B. Effectiveness:
The Company and its subsidiaries have implemented proper procedures,
supervision, and contingency plans to address the risks they are facing
and to ensure the effectiveness of their risk management systems.
(3) The Company’s risk management system is capable of identifying and
handling the following risks
A. Assets and liabilities risk:
Loans, deposits, and asset allocation are the primary businesses and
functions of a financial institution. As a result, the Company often
encounters mismatched maturities between its long term and short assets
and liabilities, and thus undertakes liquidity risks arising from different
-221-
term structures as well as any potential interest rate variations. The
Company addresses the following risks in the manners described.
a. Liquidity risk:
In addition to meeting the minimum reserve and liquidity requirements
imposed by the authority, the Company and its subsidiaries also conduct
liquidity analyses, create management indicators, set limits on indicators,
and develop responsive strategies to prevent incidents of illiquidity.
b. Structural interest rate risk:
Apart from preparing interest rate sensitivity balance sheets, the
Company and its subsidiaries also conduct interest rate sensitivity
analyses, create management indicators, set limits on indicators, and
develop responsive strategies and hedging solutions to minimize
exposure to interest rate risks.
B. Market risk:
As a result of continuing business development and active trading in
financial derivatives, the Company is consistently exposed to volatile
asset prices caused by market factors (such as changes in interest rates,
share prices, exchange rates etc.). Apart from developing scientific
methodologies and market risk management systems, the Company and
its subsidiaries also create management indicators and set limits on
indicators to effectively evaluate market risk exposure.
C. Credit risk:
As a result of active trading in financial instruments and its expanding
credit portfolio, the Company is exposed to credit risks that
counterparties or customers might default on their obligations due to
loss-making businesses or deteriorated financial position. Apart from
establishing consistent standards for evaluating and classifying asset
quality, the Company and its subsidiaries also monitor larger exposures
on a regular basis and make timely loan loss provisions as they arise.
Credit information of counterparties and loan customers are updated and
monitored on a timely manner; asset diversification and risk grading are
enforced according to credit policies; management indicators are
established to reduce default risks and concentration risks.
-222-
D. Operational risk (including legal risks):
Operational risks may arise from internal processes, staff’s misconducts,
errors of the systems, or external factors, including legal risks. To
minimize losses arising from operational risks that affect our business
goals, the Company and its subsidiaries have complied with internal
operational risk management policies, operational risk organization
framework, and operational risk management practices by carrying out a
series of risk self-assessments and event/key risk reporting mechanisms.
These practices enabled the Company to identify, assess, monitor,
manage, and minimize its exposure to operational risks.
2. Approaches undertaken by each subsidiary to manage the following risks,
and their quantified risk exposure:

Effects of technological and industrial changes to the financial holding
company’s financial and business performance, and the responsive actions
For banks, new technologies present challenges as well as opportunities! Internet
banking and mobile banking services have been favored by customers for the
convenience they bring without the constraint of time and space. Using these new
technologies, the Bank will strive to explore deeper into customers' needs and behaviors,
launch new products and services from a multitude of perspectives, and even reach
customers that it never could before. The security of customers' information is of utmost
priority when it comes to designing the trading platform. Data transmission is protected
by 128-bit SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol, the same mechanism that is used for
general and low-risk activities. The messages exchanged are encrypted using passwords
agreed between the customer and the system, which gives customers access to full
functionality at the level of security they deserve. For low-risk Internet banking
transactions, IC ATM cards are used as a means of security control; as for high-risk
transactions, XML certification is used as a form of enhanced identification and
protection. The system simultaneously caters for users' need for convenience and
security, giving customers the luxury to access all of our services with relief.
Given the growing popularity of mobile devices, the Bank has made its mobile
banking services easily accessible using different smartphones (iOS and Android
systems). In addition, the Bank has joined TMPC's "PSP TSM" scheme that gives
customers full control of how to pay for their purchases, whether using ATM cards or
credit cards, all with a tap of their cellphones. Plans for electronic banking services:
1. Introduce a greater range of mobile banking functionalities and manage customer
relationships over social networks
2. Bring more depth into electronic banking services by exploring new functionalities
-226-
The e-commerce system can serve its purpose only with the right equipment,
refined programs, and an increasing range of products and services. The authority's
Bank 3.0 initiative will change how people go about their banking activities. In response
to this development, the Bank shall continually monitor changes in the market and
introduce innovative products within the confines of law through a secured and stable
digital environment. This new model has the potential to reduce personnel costs and
bring greater revenues, and create a new area of expertise where we can compete in.
1. Expected benefits
(1) To strengthen capital structure; to gain market share, technology, and distribution
channels within a relatively short timeframe.
(2) To expand overseas markets, generate income, and diversify risks through
multi-dimensional business activities.
(3) To expand business coverage, reduce operating costs, improve efficiency, and
provide comprehensive financial services to customers.
(4) Synergies in co-marketing; to maximize values for our shareholders, customers,
and employees.
(5) To shorten organizational learning curves; to keep pace with market changes and
capture opportunities that are soon to disappear.
2. Potential risks
(1) The volatile stock market produces large discrepancies between the market price
and the reasonable value. Determining the reasonable merger and acquisition
price can become a challenging task.
(2) The Company must accept all asset and liability risks of the acquired or merged
financial institution.
(3) Failure to integrate corporate cultures and human resources may result in the loss
of key talents.
(4) Over-estimated synergies that cannot be materialized after the merger or
acquisition.
3. Responsive measures
(1) To seek for due diligence assessments by professional institutions, CPAs, and
independent directors etc.; to project financial and business impacts to the
Company under all possible circumstances.
(2) To conduct human resource capacity assessments to identify critical personnel as
well as skill shortages; to settle employees’ issues with the help of human
resource experts; to eliminate employees’ doubts by establishing transparent
corporate policies and direct communication channels.
(3) To assemble an experienced project team that clearly sets out purposes, plans,
long-term goals, and the forms of merger and acquisition.

As deposits and loans are the main businesses of the Bank, liquidity risk and credit
risk are the first priorities in our risk management. In terms of liquidity risk, apart from
maintaining 1st (i.e. required deposit reserve) and 2nd (i.e. liquidity reserve) reserves on
deposits held according to the regulations of the governing authority, we have also
added other liquidity risk management indexes with strict control measures.
In terms of credit risks, among the Bank’s 2014 credit business, consumer loans
account for about 47.61% of our total loan amount, while corporate loans account for
about 52.39%.
In 2015, the Bank will maintain its current lending policy for consumer banking,
and focus on diversifying asset concentration for its corporate banking segment, so that
the Bank is less dependent upon large borrowers. The adjustment will begin by reducing
the significance of the Bank's top 100 customers, exercising more rigorous control over
high-risk customers, and refining our credit grading system for better grasp over
business risks.

procedures and policies for such customers. With respect to operational risk, the
subsidiary complied with the competent authority and the Taiwan Stock Exchange
Corporation by establishing the relevant processes and procedures, and enforcing
internal audits and controls to prevent adverse occurrences. In addition to meeting the
minimum reserve and liquidity requirements imposed by the authority, the Company
and its securities subsidiary also conduct regular liquidity gap analyses to prevent
incidents of illiquidity.

The risks and impacts of significant equity transfers by directors,
supervisors, or major shareholders with more than 1% ownership interest,
and the responsive measures to such risks:
As of the Annual Report press date, the Company had not conducted any
significant conversion or changes in equity.
(VII) The effects, risks, and responsive measures associated with any change in
management:
The Company implemented cash capital increases in year 2006 and year 2009 to
bring in two major corporate shareholders, namely Shinsei Bank (investing via a Dutch
subsidiary, SIPF B.V.) and Capital Target Limited (HK). They are the top two
shareholders of the Company, and their shareholdings remained largely unchanged since
April 2009.

Plaintiff Yi Cheng Construction Co., Ltd. argued that

The Plaintiff also stated that the Bank had made
inappropriate gains totaling NT$17,299,000, which
should be returned to the Plaintiff plus 5% interest,
and the sum was to be paid from the above proceeds.
Taiwan Taipei District Court had rejected the
Plaintiff's claims on November 19, 2014. An appeal
was made by the Plaintiff on December 24, 2014, and
the case is currently being reviewed by Taiwan High
Court.
This suit had been filed by the Bank for the purpose
of establishing debt entitlement of Defendant Tian Tai
Construction & Engineering Co., Ltd. over Taipei
City Government Public Works Department
Hydraulic Engineering Office for a sum of
NT$41,513,000. The lawsuit was raised by the Bank
in June 2013, which Taiwan Taipei District Court later
ruled partially in favor of the Bank on October 31,
2014, by confirming that Defendant - Tian Tai
Construction & Engineering Co., Ltd. was in fact
entitled to a claim of NT$32,036,000 over Taipei City
Government Public Works Department Hydraulic
Engineering Office. On November 26, 2014, the Bank
raised an appeal for the remaining NT$9,477,000 that
was not ruled in its favor, and the case is currently
being reviewed by Taiwan High Court.

VII. Crisis Management
(I) Contingency Measures for the Potential Operational Crisis Caused by Massive
Loss of Capital or Other Issues of Significant Lack of Liquidity
The Company has established Article 56 of the “Business Contingency Plan” in
accordance with Article 8 of the “Operation Directions for the Disposal of Business
Contingency
of
Financial
Institutions”
announced
in
the
Letter
of
Jin-Guan-Yin-(1)-Zi No. 09710000092, dated 12 February 2008, by the Financial
Supervisory Commission, Executive Yuan. The Bank has established “Business
Contingency Measures” which shall be acted accordingly in the event of crisis
management policies, notification procedures and the respective measures to
continue the normal operation of the Bank, should any operational crisis arise due to
massive losses of capital or other issues of significant lack of liquidity.
(II) Contingency Measures for Major Disasters
To minimize the impacts of natural and man-made disasters to the operations of
the Company and its subsidiaries, and to outline effective responses to major
disasters, a “Disaster Response and Recovery Policy” and an “Emergency Response
Policy” have been established to provide the principles and reporting procedures in
times of extraordinary events. Emergency response teams are also in place to assist in
handling major crises, maintaining business operations, and recovering from any
damages.
VIII. Other Material Issues
Although capital requirements on market risk were not calculated using the Internal
Model Approach (IMA), the Company and its subsidiaries followed the IMA minimum
requirements specified by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) in the Basel
Capital Accord to monitor group market risks on a consolidated level. Details are as
follows:
In addition to the traditional control measures, such as authorized exposure limits,
stop-loss, stop-authority, and stop-gain thresholds, risk indicators (i.e. Greeks, DVO1,
etc.) were also used by the Company and its subsidiaries to identify, measurement,
control, and manage market risks. Furthermore, VaR (Value at Risk) was introduced to
estimate risk exposure. VaR is calculated based on the maximum potential loss arising
-234-
from market price changes within a specific holding period at the specified confidence
level.
(I)
Market Risk Identification
The Company’s internal market risk estimation models incorporate risk
factors such as interest rate, foreign exchange, equity, and commodity markets.
(II) Market Risk Measurement
1. VaR (Value at Risk)
The criteria of the Company’s VaR calculations are as follows:
Model:
The calculation of VaR is mainly based on Monte Carlo simulations,
but we also have the flexibility to use the Variance-covariance
matrices or the Historical simulations.
Method:
To calculate market price volatility of the previous year by using
the exponentially weighted moving average method (EWMA).
Frequency: Market information is updated daily. VaR is measured based on
one-tail, holding period at the confidence level of 99%.
The VaR of the bank subsidiary and securities subsidiary in Q1, 2014 are as
follows:
Unit: NTD100 million

2. Stress testing
The stress testing value for the Company’s market risk represents the
simulated losses based on the following factors:
(1) Single-factor sensitivity.
(2) Historical Scenario.
(3) Self-defined Scenario; similar to item (1), but taking into account the risk
factor of the exposure and the related volatility.
-235-
3. Back testing
Gains and loss are compared against estimated market price changes,
which were calculated based on the 1 day VaR estimated at the confidence level
of 99%, assuming that position remains unchanged throughout the day. These
results are used to test the effectiveness of our modeled forecasts.
(III) Market Risk Control
The Company calculates the stress testing limit and the VaR at a confidence
level of 99% for the Group on an annual basis, based on the Risk-adjusted Return
of Capital (RAROC) and the budget surplus of its subsidiaries. The limits are then
examined and approved by the Risk Management Committee and the Board of
Directors of Jih Sun Financial Holding Co., Ltd.
(IV) Market Risk Management
The Company’s market risk management involves the daily monitoring of
VaR, calculated at a confidence level of 99%, and the stress testing value for limit
breaches. The “Daily Report of Market Risk Overview” is emailed to the
Chairmen, Presidents, and the head of the Risk Management Division throughout
the financial holding group; the “Daily Report of Market Risk Overview” is also
presented to the head of the Risk Management Division within the group in hard
copy. Monthly reports of risk management are presented to senior managers, based
on which they will raise risk-related issues during the next Audit Committee or
Board of Directors meeting. If any breaches were found, the Company and its
subsidiaries will adhere to their internal procedures and responsive measures to

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of JihSun Financial Holding Co., Ltd. and its

income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the years
ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of JihSun
Financial Holding Co., Ltd. management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial
Statements of Financial Institutions by Certified Public Accountants and generally accepted auditing standards in
the Republic of China. Those rules and standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
consolidated financial position of JihSun Financial Holding Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31,
2014 and 2013, and the results of its consolidated operations and consolidated cash flows for the years then
ended, in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Financial Holding
Companies, Regulations Governing the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting
Standards, International Financial Reporting Interpretations, and Standarding Interpretations endorsed by the
Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Except for the following listed items, the adoption of the 2013 version of IFRSs by the
Company and its subsidiary would have no significant impact on financial reports:
(a) IAS1“Presentation of Financial Statements”
The amendments to IAS 1 modified the presentation of other comprehensive income.
Items of other comprehensive income are required to be classified by nature into (a)
items that will not be subsequently classified into profit or loss; and (b) items that will
be subsequently classified into profit or loss. The standard also regulated that items
under other comprehensive income should be presented by pre-tax amount. The related
tax effect should be disclosed separately based on the aforementioned categorization.
The Company and its subsidiary will change the presentation of the statement of
comprehensive income in conformity with the amendments.
-255-
(b) IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”
The standard integrates and requires a wide range of disclosures about an entity’s
interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated ‘structured
entities.’ The Company and its subsidiary will increase the disclosure of consolidated and
non-consolidated entities in conformity with the standard.
(c) IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”
The standard defines fair value, provides a single IFRS framework for measuring fair
value and requires disclosures about fair value measurement. The Company and its
subsidiary are in the process of making an assessment of the impact of this standard. So
far, the Company and its subsidiary consider this is unlikely to have a significant impact
on the Company’s and its subsidiary’s financial statements and have enhanced its
disclosure about the fair value measurement accordingly.

(a) IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
(1) Recognition and measurement of financial assets
With regards to financial assets, all recognized financial assets that are within the
scope of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” are
subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value. Under IFRS 9, the debt
instruments of the Company and its subsidiary are to be measured at amortized
cost if they are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the
contractual cash flows, and the contractual cash flows are for payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding only. Other financial
assets not meeting aforemetioned criteria are measured at fair value. At initial
recognition, the Company and its subsidiary may designate an equity investment,
which is not held for trading, recognizing its’ subsequent changes in the fair value
in other comprehensive income, and only dividend income is generally recognized
in profit or loss.
(2) Recognition and measurement of financial liabilities
With regards to financial liabilities, the major difference is the subsequent
measurement of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss.
The changes in fair value of the financial liabilities resulting from credit risk are
recognized in other comprehensive income, and are not allowed to reclassify in
profit or loss in subsequent period, the remaining changes in fair value are
recognized in profit or loss. If the accounting treatment of designated financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss resulted in or enhanced accounting
mismatching, then all changes in fair value of the financial liabilities are
recognized in profit or loss.
(b) Amendments to IAS 36 “Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets”
In issuing IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”, the IASB made some consequential
amendments to the disclosure requirements in IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”,
introducing a requirement to disclose in every reporting period the recoverable amount
of an asset or each cash-generating unit. The amendment clarifies that the disclosure
of such recoverable amount is required during the period when an impairment loss has
been recognized or reversed. Furthermore, the Company and its subsidiary are
required to disclose the discount rate if the Company and its subsidiary calculate the
recoverable amount by the fair value less costs of disposal using present value method.
Except for the aforementioned impact, the Company and its subsidiaries are
continuously assessing the possible impact on the financial position and financial
performance as a result of the adoption of the above standards and interpretations, and
the relevant impact will be disclosed when the assessment is completed.

primary economic environment in which it operates. When preparing the consolidated
financial statements, each consolidated entity's result of operations and financial
position are denominated in New Taiwan Dollar (The functional currency and
presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.) All amounts are expressed
in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless otherwise indicate.
-261-
(b)
Transactions and balances
When preparing the individual financial statement of each consolidated entity,
transactions using foreign currencies are translated into functional currency using the
exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary foreign currency financial assets
and liabilities are using the spot rate at the balance sheet date, and the exchange
difference is recognized in the profit or loss of the current period. Non monetary
foreign currency financial assets and liabilities which are measured by fair value shall
be translated using the spot rate at the balance sheet date. Non monetary foreign
currency financial assets and liabilities which are not measured by fair value shall be
translated using the historical exchange rate at the date of transaction.
(c)
Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to New Taiwan Dollar at
exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations,
excluding foreign operations in hyperinflationary economies, are translated to New
Taiwan Dollar at average rate. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other
comprehensive income.
When a disposal of foreign operations results in losing control, joint control or
significant impact on the operation, all cumulative exchange differences relating to that
foreign operation shall be reclassified as profit or loss. When a partial disposal includes
subsidiaries with foreign operations, the related cumulative exchange difference should
be re-attributed to the non-controlling interests in proportion. When a partial disposal
includes affiliates or joint ventures with foreign operations, the related cumulative
exchange difference should be re-attributed to profit or loss in proportion. If the
Company and its subsidiaries have no reimbursement plan or it is impossible to
reimburse in the foreseeable future, the exchange differences derived from monetary
receivables or payables to foreign operations should be regarded as part of the net
investment to that foreign operation, and recognized as other comprehensive income.
(E)
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, checks for clearing, petty cash, due from
the other banks and short-term investments that are readily convertible to fixed amounts of
cash and the interest rate fluctuations have little effect on their values with a short term
maturity. Time deposits with maturity within one year held for the purpose of meeting
short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes are classified as
cash and cash equivalents due to they are readily convertible to fixed amount of cash and
insignificant risks of changes in value.
(F)
Securities under repurchase / resell agreements
Securities purchased under resell agreements are treated as financing transactions. When the
Company prepares the financial statements, the transactions are recognized as “securities
purchased under resell agreements”. The difference between the purchase price and resell
price is treated as interest income.
-262-
Securities sold under repurchase agreements are treated as financing transactions. When the
Company prepares the financial statements, the transactions are recognized as “securities
sold under repurchase agreements”. The difference between the cost and the repurchase price
shall be recognized as interest expenses.
(G) Margin loans, securities financing, refinancing and securities borrowing
Margin loans extended to customers for the purchase of securities are recorded as margin
loans receivable. Such loans are secured by the securities purchased by the customers.
Customers may redeem the collateral securities upon repayment of the loans.
Deposits collected from customers for short selling of securities are recorded as securities
financing refundable deposits. Proceeds from short selling of securities of stock loan (less
stock exchange tax, handling fee for consigned trading, and securities financing fee) are
collected as collateral and are recorded as deposits payable for securities financing.
Customers may receive the deposits and proceeds from repayment of the securities.
When the Company lacks sufficient funds for securities financing the margin customers, the
refinancing amount acquired from securities finance enterprises is recorded as refinancing
borrowings, and the stocks purchased by margin customers are collected as collateral by
securities finance enterprises.
When the Company refinances securities from securities finance enterprises, if it does not
have sufficient securities, the deposit paid is recorded as refinancing margin. Proceeds from
sale of loaned stocks collected as collateral should be transferred to securities finance
enterprises, and the amounts is recorded as refinancing collateral receivable.
Moreover, pursuant to Securities and Futures Bureau (SFB) (88) Tai-Cai- Zheng (2) No.
82416, whenever the collateral maintenance ratio of any customer’s margin account is lower
than the limit set by the government after disposal and if there is still a receivable remaining
and payment has yet not been made within the time limit specified, then the receivable
should be transferred to overdue receivable. If the securities in a customer’s margin account
cannot be disposed of, then the receivables for securities provided as collateral, in
accordance with the actual situation, should be recognized as other receivables or overdue
receivable.
Securities lending is only noted in memo, not recognized as the assets of the Company, vice
versa. The acquired collaterals are not stated in the reports if they are securities; whereas,
they should be recognized as securities lending refundable deposit if the collaterals are cash
collaterals. The securities lending revenue and service fee are recognized as securities
lending revenue.
-263-
(H) Financial assets and financial liabilities
(a)
Financial assets
All of the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial assets are classified as “loans and
receivables”, “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss”, “held-to-maturity
financial assets”, “available-for-sale financial assets” and “financial assets carried at
cost”.
(1) Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables include the origination and non-origination. The originated
loans and receivables are considered as providing money, products or services to
the debtor. The non-originated loans and receivables are considered as anything
except from the originated ones.
Loans and receivables are recognized initially at fair values which consist of
attributable price acquired, significant transaction costs, payment or receipt of
significant service fees and all other premiums or discounts. Subsequent
evaluation uses interest method. However, in conformity with the article 10-7 and
article 10-10 of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by
Public Banks, while the influences of discount are insignificant, the loans and
receivables could be measured by initial recognized amount.
(2) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset is classified in this category if it is classified as held-for-trading
or is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial assets are classified as
held for trading if they have been acquired principally for the purpose of selling or
repurchasing in the near term. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in
profit or loss as incurred. The subsequent evaluations are measured at fair value,
and changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss. Purchases or sales of
financial assets under a customary way use trade date accounting.
Financial assets are designated as at fair value through profit or loss at initial
recognition under one of the following situations:
A. Designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition
inconsistency that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities
or recognizing the gains and losses on them on a different basis;
B. Performance of the financial asset is evaluated on a fair value basis;
C. A hybrid instrument contains one or more embedded derivatives.
-264-
Financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated as at fair value
through profit or loss on initial recognition are recognized under “financial assets
at fair value through profit or loss” in the balance sheet. Any change in fair value
of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized under “gain or
loss on financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss” in the
statement of comprehensive income.
The derivative financial instruments held by the Company and its subsidiaries,
except for those designated as hedging instruments, are classified under these
accounts.
(3) Held-to-maturity financial assets
Debt instruments which the Company and its subsidiaries have a positive intention
and the ability to hold to maturity are recorded under held-to-maturity financial
assets and measured at amortized cost. The financial instruments are initially
recognized at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction cost. Subsequent
to initial recognition, held-to-maturity financial assets are measured at amortized
cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Purchases or
sales of financial assets under a customary way are using trade date accounting.
(4) Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are
designated as available-for-sale or are not classified in any of the other categories
of financial assets. Available-for-sale financial assets are recognized initially at
fair value plus any directly attributable transaction cost. Subsequent to initial
recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, except for
impairment losses, interest income calculated using the effective interest method,
dividend income, and foreign currency differences on available-for-sale debt
instruments, are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented in the
unrealized valuation gain or loss on available-for-sale financial assets. When an
investment is derecognized, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is reclassified
to profit or loss, and is included in statement of comprehensive income account as
realized gain or loss on available-for-sale financial assets. Under a customary way
purchases or sales of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized, using
trade date accounting.
(5) Financial assets carried at cost
Equity instruments with no quoted market price are initially recognized at whose
fair value plus transaction costs. When the variances of reasonable estimation of
the financial assets’ fair value are considered as significance, and the probabilities
of the different estimation cannot be estimated reasonability, resulting in the
assets’ fair value cannot be measured reliably, should adopt cost method to
measure the financial assets.
-265-
(b)
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss which held by the Company and
its subsidiaries are including held-for-trading and designated as at fair value through
profit or loss financial liabilities. A financial liability is held for trading if it is acquired
or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term; on
initial recognition 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. A derivative, except for a derivative that is a financial
guarantee contract or a designated and effective hedging instrument, is classified as
instrument held for trading as well. Financial liabilities held for trading include
obligations to deliver financial assets borrowed by a short seller.
Financial liabilities are classified as held-for-trading and designated as at fair value
through profit or loss, both of them are classified as “Financial liabilities measured at
fair value through profit or loss”. The changes of fair value changes are recognized in
profit or loss, and are included in statement of comprehensive income account as “Gain
or loss on financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss”.
(c)
Derivative instruments
Derivatives instruments is initially recognized at fair value on contract date and
subsequently measured at fair value. Fair value includes quoted price in an active
market, occurring market transaction prices, discounted cash flow model or option
pricing model techniques. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, it
is classified as a financial asset, and when the fair value is negative, it is classified as a
financial liability.
The Company should accounts for an embedded derivative separately from the host
contract when the host contract is not itself carried at fair value through profit or loss,
the terms of the embedded derivative would meet the definition that the economic
characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, or the entire hybrid contract is
not designated as at fair value through profit or loss. In addition, the embedded
derivative is recognized as financial asset or liability at fair value through profit or loss.
(d)
Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities
The Company and its subsidiary shall derecognize a financial asset when the
contractual rights of the cash flows from the financial asset expire or transfers
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets. While the
financial liabilities are discharged or cancelled, or expired, the financial liability shall
be derecognized.
When the Company and its subsidiaries have securities borrowing transactions or
pledge securities or bonds as collaterals, such financial assets shall not be derecognized
because the Company and its subsidiaries substantially still bear all the risks and
-266-
rewards of the financial assets.
(e)
Offsetting of financial instrument
The Company and its subsidiaries present financial assets and liabilities on a net basis
when the Company and its subsidiaries present have the legally enforceable right to
offset and intend to settle such financial assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize
the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
(f)
Reclassification of financial assets
The reclassification of non-derivative financial assets is in accordance with IAS 39 as
endorsed by FSC.
(I)
Investments in associates
Investees in which the Company and its subsidiaries directly or indirectly hold more than
20% of the outstanding stock with voting right, or hold less than 20% but are able to exercise
significant influence over the investees are accounted for under the equity method and
initially recognized at cost. Goodwill, relating to an associate is included in the book value of
the investment.
After the date of acquisition the Company’s share of the profit or loss of the associates is
recognized in profit or loss. Distributions received from an associate reduce the book value
of the investment. Adjustments to the book value of the investment may also be necessary
for changes in the Company and its subsidiaries’ proportionate interest in the associates
arising from changes in the associates’ other comprehensive income.
Changes in ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are
accounted for as equity transactions. Adjustments to the book value of the controlling
interest and non-controlling interests are to reflect the changes in the subsidiaries’
proportionate interest. The difference between the adjustment amount of non-controlling
interests and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized in equity
adjustment.
When investments in foreign operating institutions are under equity method, the exchange
differences, which are accounted under equity as cumulative translation adjustment, are
determined by the translation of the financial statement of foreign currency into domestic
currency. The adjustments will be incorporated into the profit or loss when the foreign
operating institution is sold out or under liquidation.
(J)
Investment property
The investment property possessed by the Company and its subsidiaries is the property held
either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment property
includes office buildings and lands rented in a form of operating lease.
-267-
Properties held by the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun International Commercial Bank Co.,
Ltd. are all in compliance with Article 75 of “The Banking Act of the Republic of China”.
Properties are classified as investment property if it is held to earn rentals or for appreciation
(or both), each floor’s property right is separate and the entire floor is rented or the owner
occupies less than 5% of the floor. Investment properties also include buildings and land
held under an operating lease and are treated in accordance with IAS 40.
Part of properties held by the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. may be for
operation and the remaining is used to generate rental income or capital appreciation.
If the property held by JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. can be sold individually, it should be
recognized separately. Property for self-use is following IFRS 16 endorsed by FSC, and the
property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both is recognized
as investment property which is in accordance with IFRS 40 endorsed by FSC. If each part
of the property cannot be sold individually and the self-use proportion is not material, then
the entire property is regarded as investment property.
The fair value of investment property is evaluated by the Appraisal Department of the
Company’s subsidiary, JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. every year.
Cost model is used for the initial recognition and the subsequent measurement of the
Company and its subsidiaries’ investment property. Depreciation is based on the cost of the
asset minus its residual value and is calculated by using the straight-line method during its
estimated useful lives. If the useful life of a component of the assets is different from the
other components of the asset, its depreciation is recognized separately. Depreciation is
recognized in profit or loss.
Land is not affected by depreciation.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Main part of the buildings
10-55 years
Attachment of the buildings
5 years
The replacement cost should be recognized in the book value of the investment property,
given that the criteria of recognition can be met and the book value of the replaced items
should be derecognized. The maintenance cost shall be recognized as “Other general and
administrative expenses” when incurred.
(K) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recognized after deducting any accumulated depreciation
and accumulated impairment losses from historical cost. The historical cost includes any
costs directly attributable to acquire the assets.
-268-
Subsequent expenditure of property, plant and equipment shall be recognized as an asset or
be included in the book value of assets, when, and only when it is probable that the future
economic benefits that are associated with property, plant and equipment will flow to the
Company and its subsidiaries, and the cost of property, plant and equipment can be measured
reliably. The book value of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. The maintenance
expense shall be recognized as “Other general and administrative expenses” when incurred.
(a)
Depreciation
Depreciation is determined after deducting its residual amount, and it shall be allocated
on a systematic basis over its useful life. Items of property, plant and equipment with
the same useful life may be grouped in determining the depreciation charge. The
remainder of the items may be depreciated separately. The depreciation charge for each
period shall be recognized in profit or loss.
Land is not affected by depreciation, but other property, plant and equipment are
depreciated to their residual values using straight-line method during their useful life.
If property, plant and equipment are still usable after their original estimated useful life,
the estimated residual amount may still be depreciated over their acceptable useful
lives.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Main part of the building
10-55 years
Attachment of the building
5 years
Miscellaneous equipment
3-10 years
Leasehold improvement
3-15 years
Decommissioning costs: in accordance with the period of lease contract.
(b)
Gain or loss
The gain or loss arising from the disposition of an item of property, plant and
equipment is as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount
of the item, shall be recognized as “Other non-interest incomes (losses)” in the
statements of comprehensive income.
(c)
Reclassification to investment property
The property is reclassified to investment property at its book value when the use of
the property changes from owner-occupied to investment property.
-269-
(L)
Lease
In compliance with the International Accounting Standard 17, all leases contract are
classified as operating leases. Lease receivables and payables are recognized by using a
straight-line basis, and accounted as “Other non-interest incomes (losses)” and “Other
general and administrative expenses”, respectively.
(M) Intangible assets
Intangible assets include computer software and goodwill.
The straight-line method can be used to amortize the computer software over its useful life,
and the expected maximum useful life is five years.
The goodwill shall be recognized as the amount of the consideration transferred excess of the
acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired. The amount of goodwill which
derived from the business combination does not need to be amortized. Goodwill is tested for
impairment periodically each year. An impairment loss is recognized when the recoverable
amount is less than the book value. Impairment losses cannot be reversed once an
impairment loss has been recognized.
(N) Customer margin deposit and futures dealer equity
(a)
Customer margin deposit
The difference between margins and premiums duly collected from a futures trader by
an FCM in the course of futures brokerage business.
(b)
Futures dealer equity
Futures dealer equity refers to the difference between margins and premiums deposited
by futures dealer and the corresponding settlement fair value and it is accounted under
current liabilities of the balance sheet. The amount can’t be offset unless it belongs to
the same category account of same customer. When a debit balance arises on Futures
trader’s equity, it shall be accounted for as futures exchange margins receivable.
(O) Provisions
The Company recognizes the provision under the circumstances below:

(b)
It is probable that an outflow of economic benefits resources will be required to settle
the obligation; and
(c)
The amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
-270-
The amount recognized as a provision should be the estimate of the expenditure required to
settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The individual provisions of
the Company and its subsidiaries are the best estimates of the individual results.
(P)
Revenue recognition
(a)
Interest income and expense
The interest income and expense of the Company and its subsidiaries are recognized on
an accrual basis.
The interest income from loans of the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun International
Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. is evaluated by the amortized cost under effective interest
rate method and also refers to the Materiality Principle of Banking Industry- Adjusting
the Recognition of Interest Income from Agreed Interest Method to Effective Interest
Rate Method (“the Materiality Principle”) drafted by the Bankers Association of the
Republic of China. According to the Materiality Principle, loans and receivables
should be adjusted from agreed interest method to effective interest method when the
credit periods are specific and over one year, and when one of the following criteria is
met:
(1)
The agreed interest rate of loans and receivables is zero.
(2)
Loans and receivables with stepped interest are still at the step-phase.
(3)
The non-service fees income of a single loan or receivable is over 1% of the loan
facility.
Loans and receivables meeting aforesaid criteria should be calculated by the difference
between interest under agreed interest method and interest under effective interest
method by products. The difference is significant when the difference exceeds 5% of
the sum of interest revenue and service fees income for the reporting period of the
Bank and these loans and receivables should be adjusted into effective interest method
to calculate interest income on the reporting date.
The Company’s subsidiary, JihSun Securities Co., Ltd., recognized interest revenue
and interest expense on margin loans and short sales of securities and bonds purchased
under resale agreements, bonds sold under repurchase agreements respectively over the
loan period, short selling period and trading period on an accrual basis.
-271-
(b)
Service fees income and commissions income
Service fees income and commissions income of the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun
International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. are recognized on an accrual basis when the
service is provided. Loan commitment fees received in advance of highly probable
loan agreement is considered to be the returns of such financial instruments. Such loan
commitment fees and related transaction costs should be deferred and the effective
interest rate should be adjusted. For the syndicated loan, in which the Bank does not
keep any loan proportion (or which the Bank keeps some loan proportion has the same
effective interest rate as other banks participating under similar risks), the fees received
will be recognized as revenue when the loan process is completed. The services fee
charged by the Bank which acts as coordinator is recognized as revenue when the
transaction is completed. The investment management service fees charged should be
recognized as revenue when the service is provided. The same service fee recognition
principle is applicable to wealth management, financial consultant services and custody
services. If the service fees income is linked to the performance, revenue is recognized
when the performance is achieved.
Brokerage fee income and other related expenses of the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun
Securities Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries are recognized at the date of securities
transaction.
(c)
Consulting and financial advisory service income, revenue and expenses from
underwriting businesses, revenue from providing agency service for stock affairs,
future commission income are recognized in accordance with related agreements on
accrual basis.
(d)
Futures and options transaction income: The premium of transactions is recognized at
cost. Daily evaluation under market value, contract gain or loss through reversing trade
and transaction income or loss arising from settlement are recognized in profit or loss
of current period. Proprietary handling fee expenses are recognized at the date of the
transaction.
(e)
Dividend revenue:
Dividend revenue is recognized when the Company and its subsidiaries have the right
to retrieve the dividend.
(Q) Financial asset impairment
(a)
Financial assets carried at amortized cost (including loans and receivables)
For the securities and futures industries, the allowance for bad debts should account for
assessed impaired amounts in consideration of the ending balance of notes receivable
and accounts receivable in compliance with IAS 39.
-272-
The Company’s subsidiary, JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. should
identify on every reporting day if there exists any objective evidence for impairment
loss. If material impairment indicator on a single financial asset is revealed, the
impairment loss is evaluated individually; if there is non-material impairment indicator
on single financial assets either respectively or collectively, the impairment loss is
evaluated by portfolio method. If an evaluated single financial asset does not show any
objective evidence for impairment loss, it should be organized into a financial asset
category in which the financial assets have similar credit risk characteristics, and
evaluate if there is impairment loss existing in this set of asset. Financial assets of
which the individual impairment loss has been recognized or the impairment loss has
been continuingly recognized do not require reevaluating impairment loss by portfolio
method.
If objective evidences for impairment loss exist, the difference between the book value
of financial assets and the present value of estimated future cash flow discounted by
effective interest rate should be recognized as impairment loss. When impairment loss
happens, the book value of financial assets is reduced by the allowance account, and
recognized under the account ''Bad debt expenses and guarantee reserve''. In
calculating impairment amount, estimated future cash flows include the recoverable
amount of collaterals and related insurances.
If the amount of impairment loss reduces in the following period, and that reduction is
obviously related to the events which happen after the impairment loss is recognized,
the previous recognized impairment loss on financial assets will be reversed. The
reversal should not make the book value of financial assets to be higher than the
amortized cost when the impairment loss is not recognized.
The aforesaid objective evidence includes:
(1)
Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor;
(2)
A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal
payments;
(3)
The lender considered the economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s
financial difficulty, and granted the borrower a concession;
(4)
It is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial
reorganization;
(5)
The financial assets cannot be traded in an active market because of the financial
difficulties of issuers;
(6)
The payment status of the borrower became worse and worse;
(7)
Changes in national or local economic conditions correlate with defaults on the
assets.
-273-
Overdue loans and non-accrual loans which have been actively demanded for
repayment and meet one of the following situations can be written off after reducing
the retrievable parts.
(1)
Part of or all of the claims cannot be retrieved because the borrowers are declared
dismissed, fled, reconciled, bankrupt or any other reason.
(2)
The appraised value of collaterals and the properties of the main- and
sub- borrowers is low; no compensation will be received after reduces the
amount attributed to priority hypothec; the execution expenses is close to or over
the compensation that the Bank will receive, which is no benefit in execution.
(3)
Collaterals and the properties of the main- and sub- borrowers could not be sold
out at auction for many times and the Bank could not have any benefit from
foreclosure.
(4)
Overdue loans, which is over the settlement period for two years and have been
actively demanded for repayment, still cannot be retrieved.
The credit card receivables, of which the lowest monthly payments are not paid over
the assigned payment duration for six months, should be written off in three months
(after that six months exceeding payment duration).
The evaluation process mentioned above also refers to Financial Supervisory
Commission R.O.C, Regulations Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to
Evaluate Assets and Deal with Non-performing / Non-accrual Loans, and the Rules
Governing the Procedures for Banking Institutions to Evaluate Assets and Deal with
Nonperforming/ Non-accrual Loans of the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun International
Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. The minimum loan loss provision and guarantee reserve
shall be the sum of 1% of the outstanding balance of Category One credit asset's claim
(excluding assets that represent claims against the central and local government in
Taiwan), 2% of the balance of Category Two credit assets, 10% of the balance of
Category Three credit assets, 50% of the balance of Category Four credit assets, and
the full balance of Category Five credit assets., compare with the loss provision
calculated following IAS 39, the higher amount is considered as the basis of loss
provision.
(b)
When the reduction in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized in
other comprehensive income and there is objective evidences that show the assets are
impaired, even if the financial asset had not been derecognized, the accumulated
revaluation losses recognized in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified to
profit or loss.
-274-
The impairment losses of equity instruments classified as available for sale assets can’t
be reversed in profit or loss, and any subsequent increase in fair value are recognized
in other comprehensive income. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of debt
instruments classified as available for sale assets increases and the increase can be
related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the
previously recognized impairment loss is reversed and recognized in current period
profit or loss.
(c)
Financial assets carried at cost
If there is objective evidence that financial assets carried at cost are impaired, the
impairment amount of the assets is recognized in account “impairment loss on assets”.
However, the impairment losses should not be reversed.
(R)
Non-financial asset impairment
In compliance with IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”, at each balance sheet date, the
recoverable amount of non-financial asset is estimated and compared with the carrying
amount whenever there is an indication that the non-financial asset may be impaired. An
impairment loss is recognized in account “impairment loss on assets” when the recoverable
amount, higher of fair market value or value in use, is less than the carrying amount. For
assets other than goodwill, reversal of impairment loss is recognized when the recoverable
amount of the asset has increased from its prior-period estimation. The carrying amount after
the reversal shall not exceed the recoverable amount or the depreciated or amortized balance
of the assets assuming no impairment loss was recognized in prior periods. Goodwill shall be
tested for impairment annually regardless whether there are signs of impairment or not. The
impairment losses of goodwill cannot be reversed.
(S)
Valuation method of foreclosed collaterals
Foreclosed collaterals are stated at realizable value, and the difference between it and the
nominal value of the original claim is reflected as bad debt loss. On the balance sheet date, if
the foreclosed collaterals are still unsold, the realizable value shall be reassessed. If there is
sufficient evidence indicating that the net fair market value is lower than the carrying amount
of foreclosed collaterals, the difference after reassessment is recognized as “impairment loss
on assets” in current period loss.
(T)
Income taxes
Income tax expenses include both current taxes and deferred taxes. Except for expenses
related to business combinations or recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive
income, all current and deferred taxes shall be recognized in profit or loss.
Current taxes include tax payables and tax deduction receivables on taxable gains (losses) for
the year calculated using the statutory tax rate on the reporting date or the actual legislative
tax rate, as well as tax adjustments related to prior years.
-275-
Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes
shall not be recognized for the situations as follows:
(a)
Assets and liabilities that are initially recognized but are not related to the business
combination and have no effect on net income or taxable gains (losses) during the
transaction.
(b)
Temporary differences arising from equity investments in subsidiaries or joint ventures
where there is a high probability that such temporary differences will not be reversed.
(c)
Initial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities shall be measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply
to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have
been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities may be offset against each other if the following criteria
are met:
(a)
The entity has the legal right to settle current tax assets and current tax liabilities on a
net basis; and
(b)
The deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by
the same taxation authority on either:
(1)
Levied by the same taxing authority; or
(2)
Levied by different taxing authorities, but where each such authority intends to
settle current tax assets and current tax liabilities (where such amounts are
significant) on a net basis every year of the period of expected asset realization or
debt liquidation, or where the timing of asset realization and debt liquidation is
matched.
A deferred tax asset should be recognized for the carry-forward of unused tax losses, unused
tax credits, and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future
taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and
deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such unused tax losses, unused tax credits,
and deductible temporary differences shall also be reevaluated every year on the financial
reporting date, and adjusted to reduce the related tax benefit when the unused tax losses,
unused tax credits, and deductible temporary differences are not probable to be utilized.
After adopting the imputation tax method in 1998, 10 % surtax on undistributed earnings is
levied as current income tax expense in the year that the stockholder’s meeting declaring the
distribution of earnings.
-276-
Furthermore, for the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company and its Subsidiaries,
“JihSun Securities Co., Ltd.”, “JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd.” and JihSun
International Property Insurance Agency Co., Ltd. adopted the jointly tax filing return
principle to file the annual income tax return and make tax payment. In accordance with
Interpretation (92) No.240 issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation
on October 3, 2003, the accrued receivable and payable between the parent company and
subsidiaries are allocated reasonably and consistently to individual companies.
Other subsidiaries, except for JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd., JihSun
Securities Co., Ltd. and JihSun International Property Insurance Agency Co., Ltd. are filing
income tax report separately.
(U) Employee benefit
(a)
Post - employment benefits
(1)
Defined contribution plan
The Labor Pension Act of R.O.C. (“the Act”), effective from July 1, 2005, adopts
a defined contribution pension plan. In accordance with the Act, employees who
were hired before July 1, 2005 may elect to be subject to either the Act and
maintain their seniority before the enforcement of the Act, or the pension
mechanism of the Labor Standards Law. Employees who were hired after July 1,
2005, are required to be covered by the pension plan as defined by the Act. For
employees subject to this Act, the Company is required to make monthly cash
contributions to the employees’ individual pension accounts at the rate of not less
than 6% of the employees’ monthly wages and deposit the contribution in a
personal retirement benefit account at Council of Labor Affairs.
Defined contribution plan of oversea subsidiaries are in accordance with the
national law of the host country.
(2)
Defined benefit plan
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which benefit is
paid to an employee on the basis of their ages, year of experience, seniority and
compensated salaries.
The Company recognizes pension asset or liability in balance sheet as the net
amount of actuarial present value of defined benefit obligation, less fair value of
plan assets. The calculation of defined benefit obligation is performed annually
by an actuary using the projected unit credit method. The actuarial present value
of defined benefit obligation is calculated by discounting future cash flow at the
yield rate of high-quality corporate bond or government bond, that have maturity
dates approximating the term of the obligation and that are denominated in the
same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. The Company
recognizes actuarial gains and losses which are incurred by the change of actual
-277-
experience and actuarial assumption in other comprehensive income.
The past service costs which are due to the modification of retirement plan are
currently recognized as personnel expenses in profit or loss.
(b)
Short-term employee benefitΚ
The Company charges the short-term and non-discounted benefit expectedly paid in
near future to current expenses over the periods services are rendered by employees.
(c)
Preferential savings rate for employee
The Company’s subsidiary, JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. offers
current staffs a fixed amount of preferential savings rate. The difference between the
preferential savings rates and the market rates is the scope of employee benefits.
According to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by
Publicly Held Banks, the interest paid for preferential savings rate plan is recorded
monthly under accrual basis. The difference between the preferential savings rates and
the market rates is recognized under "employee benefit expenses".
(V) Earnings (losses) per common shares
EPS is calculated as dividing current consolidated net profit or loss decreased by preferred
stock dividends, by the weighted- average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. The calculation of diluted EPS assumed that all potential shares with diluted
influence are outstanding during the current period. Therefore, both the net income and the
number of outstanding shares during the current period should all be adjusted to the
influence on potentially dilutive shares. In the event of capital decrease, the number of shares
outstanding is decreasing. On the other hand, in the event of capitalization of retained
earnings or capital surplus, or the new shares that the meeting of the shareholders, for the
year ended December 31, 2008, resolved to distribute to the employees as bonuses, the
number of shares outstanding is increasing. Both of the shares are retroactively adjusted. If
the base date for capital reduction or capitalization of earnings or capital surplus is before the
reporting date, the computation of common shares outstanding is also retroactively adjusted.
(W) Financial guarantee contracts
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer 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.
The Company and its subsidiaries recognize financial guarantee liabilities initially at their
fair value at the date of providing guarantee. The Company and its subsidiaries receive
commission income with non-arm’s-length transaction at contract date; this is, the income
could represent the fair value of financial guarantee contract. The advanced service fee is
recognized as deferred item and amortized by straight-line method over the contract period
of the financial guarantee.
-278-
After initial recognition, the Company and its subsidiaries measure a financial guarantee
contract at the higher of the amount determined in accordance with IAS 37” Provisions,
Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets “, and the amount initially recognized less,
when appropriate, cumulative service fee recognized in accordance with IAS 18” Revenue”.
The aforesaid estimations are based on the experiences of trading, the database of historical
losses, and the management’s judgments.
The amount of increased liability from the financial guarantee contracts shall be recognized
as “Provisions for bad debt expenses and guarantee reserve”.
(X) Equity
The new issued capital shall be attributed as incremental cost and the net amount of cost after
deducting the related income tax expense being excluded from the equity. Stock dividends of
common stock are recognized in the year which the Company and its subsidiaries’
shareholders' meeting approved.
(Y) Material commitments and contingency
The Company and its subsidiaries recognize loss when it is highly probable that a loss will
incur and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, while the Company discloses the
information in the notes when it is reasonably potential that a loss will incur or cannot be
reasonably estimated.
(Z)
Operating segments
An operating segment is a component of the Company and its subsidiaries that engages in
business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. The segment’s
operating results are reviewed regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to
make decisions pertaining to the allocation of the resources to the segment and to assess its
performance. The operational performance and resource allocation plan are approved by the
board of directors of each subsidiary and executed by relevant departments. The chief
operating decision maker of the subsidiaries is their respective board of directors. The
Company provides financial information to the senior management on a monthly basis and
consolidated financial information on a quarterly basis to the board of directors for
reviewing.
5.
Primary Sources of Significant Accounting Judgments, and Uncertainty of Estimates and
Assumptions
The consolidated financial statements are influenced by accounting policies, assumptions and
estimates. When preparing the financial statements, the management needs to make appropriate
professional judgments, estimates and assumptions, and will affect the adoption of accounting
policies, reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ
from these estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
-279-
Management continued to monitor the accounting assumptions, estimates and judgments.
Management recognized the changes in the accounting estimates during the period and the impact
of the changes in the accounting estimates in the next period.
(A) Critical judgments in applying accounting policies
Other than the determination of estimates (please refer to Note 5(B) as shown below), other
significant judgment made by the management of the Company and its subsidiaries when
determining a recognized amount in the financial report under the application of the
accounting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries is as follows:
Financial assets classification
The Company and its subsidiaries’ management should define the classification of financial
assets. Different classification of financial assets would impact the accounting methods,
financial position and operating performance of the consolidated companies.
(B)
Major sources of uncertainty for assumptions and estimation
The Company and its subsidiaries have made proper assumptions and estimations toward
book value of assets and liabilities which may have significant risk due to significant
adjustments in the next fiscal year. The Company and its subsidiaries’ assumption and
estimation are made by following IFRS as accepted by FSC, and are considered as the best
estimation. Estimation and assumption are made based on the past experience and other
factors, encompassing the expectation for the future period, and are evaluated continuously.
The following information is the major sources of uncertainty for assumptions and
estimation which may result in adjusting book value of assets or liabilities in the next fiscal
year.
(a)
Impairment loss on loans
Loans are reviewed quarterly by the Company and its subsidiaries to assess impairment.
When the Company and its subsidiaries decide whether to recognize impairment loss,
they mainly assess if there are any observable evidence indicating possible impairment.
The evidence may include observable information indicating unfavorable changes in
debtor payment status, or sovereign or local economic situation related to debt payment
in arrears. When analyzing expected cash flow, the estimates by the management are
based on past losses experience on assets of similar credit risk characteristics. The
Company and its subsidiaries periodically review methods and assumptions behind the
amount and schedule of expected cash flow, to reduce the difference between expected
loss and actual loss.
-280-
(b)
Fair value of financial instruments
A valuation method is used for determination of financial instrument’s fair value which
is without active market or without quotation in an active market. Under this situation,
the valuation of fair value is based on the observation of similar financial instruments
with observable information. If no quotation can be referred to, fair value of a financial
instrument would be determined under proper assumptions. When valuation model is
applied for the determination of fair value, all models should be aligned in order to
ensure that the outcome reflects actual information and market price. Observable
information is applied mostly in models; however, certain items, such as credit risk
(the risk bears by the Company and its subsidiaries itself and the counterparty) should
rely on the management’s estimation toward fluctuation and correlation. Please refer to
Note 6(AP) for information on financial instruments sensitivity analyses.
(c)
Income tax
Income tax liabilities resulting from taxation issues which are recognized additionally
by the Company and its subsidiaries are cautiously evaluated in consideration of its
subsequent development. Income tax expense and current income tax liabilities will be
affected if there is a difference between the final taxation of such transaction and
calculations and the amounts initially recognized.
Please refer to Note 6(AC) for information about the evaluation of deferred tax items.
(d)
Post-employment benefits
The present value of post-employment benefits obligation is based on actuarial results
of multiple assumptions. Any assumption changes will affect the carrying amount of
postemployment benefits obligation.

(AF) Earnings distribution and dividend policy
After-tax earnings, if any, shall pay for taxes and offset cumulative losses, and the remainder
will be set aside as legal reserve and special reserve as required by relevant regulations. Any
remaining balance will be distributed as employee bonus which cannot be less than 0.01%.
The very remaining balance and accumulated unappropriated earnings from prior years
should be formulated by the Broad of Directors and distributed in accordance with the
resolution of the shareholders’ meeting. In compliance with the law, the Company set aside
special reserve from the earnings of the year. However, if the law has been amended or
reasons for setting special reserve are eliminated, special reserve can be reversed as
unappropriated earnings.
In compliance with the amended Company Act in January, 2012, 10% of the annual net
income (less any accumulated deficit) is appropriated as legal reserve. The aforementioned
appropriation for legal reserve is made until the reserve equals the Company’s capital. When
there is no deficit, the legal reserve could be transferred, after the resolution of shareholders’
meeting, to capital or distributed as cash dividends. Only the amount of the legal reserves
exceed over 25% of paid-in capital could be transferred or distributed.
-309-
According to SFC Tai-Cai-Zheng-Zi(1) No. 100116 dated January 3, 2000, and other related
regulations, prior to any distribution of earnings, if there are any deductions made to
stockholders’ equity, then an equal amount of special reserve must be provided based on net
income of the current period and unappropriated earnings from the prior period. If there are
any subsequent reversals to the deduction from stockholders’ equity, then the reversed
portion may be distributed. On January 11, 2011, the rules regarding provision for trading
loss reserve and default loss reserve are revoked from the Regulations Governing Securities
Firms and Regulations Governing Futures Commission Merchants. As of December 31,
2010, the amount of trading loss reserve and default loss reserve are reclassified as special
reserve.
The Company adopted the residual dividend policy. In consideration of the Company’s
capital budget, essential funds needed for operations and investing are retained, and the
remainder is distributed as stock or cash dividends. The cash dividends shall not be less than
10% of total dividends. When the employee bonuses are issued by stock dividends, the
allocated subjects could include the employees of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Methods and assumptions used by the Company and its subsidiary for fair value
evaluation of financial instruments are as follows:
(1)
Fair value of financial instruments is estimated by their book value on the
consolidated balance sheet date. Since these instruments have short maturities or
their book values are similar to the future receivable/payable amounts, the book
value is adopted as a reasonable basis in estimating the fair value. The method is
applied to cash and cash equivalents, due from the Central Bank and call loans to
banks, securities purchased under resell agreements, receivables, restricted assets,
other financial assets(except for financial assets carried at cost), operating
guarantee deposits, clearing and settlement fund, refundable deposits (listed in
other assets), deposits from the Central Bank and banks, securities sold under
repurchase agreements, commercial paper issued, payables, security lending
and refundable deposits received (listed in other liabilities).
-316-
(2)
If there is a quoted price in an active market for the financial asset, including
financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss, available for
sale financial assets and held-to-maturity financial assets, and non-derivative
financial instruments, the quoted price is regarded as its fair value. Financial
instruments with public market prices (except for stocks and depositary receipt)
such as government bonds use the latest trade price or reference theory price
under OTC European Breakdown Tyre System as fair value. Foreign currency
bonds use latest trade price as fair value. If there is no quoted price in an active
market for the financial asset, its fair value is estimated on the basis of the result
of a valuation technique that refers to quoted prices provided by financial
institutions. The information is available for the Company and its subsidiary.
Financial derivative instruments with active market price use market value as fair
value. Futures use settlement price as fair value. Foreign exchange trading uses
average closing price as fair value. When there is no active market price,
valuation model is mainly adopted in evaluation. Financial derivative
instrumentsņ non-option use discounted cash flow; financial derivative
instrumentsņ options mainly use Blackņ Scholes Model in evaluation.
(3)
Loan discounted (including Non-accrual loans): The interest rate that the Bank
uses in loans is basically based on floating rate, which can reflect the market rate.
Therefore, it is reasonable to use its book value to evaluate the expected retrieve
possibility.
(4)
Deposits: Considering the nature of banking industry, the decision maker of
market interest rate (also refer to as market price), and most of the deposit
transaction mature in one year, its book value is considered to be a reasonable
basis in evaluating fair value. Among deposits, the fair value of long-term
deposits with fixed interest rate should be evaluated by using discounted cash
flow projections, and the longest maturity date is not more than 3 years from now.
Therefore, it should be reasonable to evaluate its fair value with book value.
(5)
The fair value of bonds payable and other borrowings are evaluated based on the
present value of expected future cash flows. The discount rate is based on rates
of equivalent long-term borrowings available elsewhere; that is, long-term
borrowings with similar maturity date and terms.
(6)
Other financial assets-financial assets at cost: Other financial assets-financial
assets at cost belong to private equities. Because there is no active market price
and the variation interval of its estimated fair value is material, or the possibility
of the estimations in the variation interval cannot be reasonably estimated, the
book value is used as the fair value.
(7)
Other financial liabilities, including interest bearing appropriated loan funds,
principal received on structured instruments and interest bearing financial
liabilities: These kinds of liabilities’ book value are current price so that book
value should be the reasonable basis in evaluating these liabilities’ fair value.

Note1: Fair value measurement for a financial instrument classified in Level 1
is determined as the quoted price for an identical financial instrument in
an active market. The definition of active market has all of the following
conditions: (1) the products traded in the market are homogeneous, (2)
willing parties are available anytime in the market, and (3) price
information is available for the public.
Note2: Fair value measurement for a financial instrument classified in Level 2
is determined as the observable price other than quoted price in an
active market including an observable input obtained in an active market,
either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).
The examples of observable price are as follows:
1. The quoted price for an identical financial instrument in an active
market means the fair value from the market transaction prices for an
identical financial instrument. An identical financial instrument
should be determined by its characteristics and terms of transaction.
The fair value of a financial instrument has to be adjusted according
to the observable market price of the identical financial instrument.
The reasons for adjustments include time lag of the occurring market
transaction prices for an identical financial instrument (the quoted
prices do not represent fair value at the measurement date), the
difference in transaction terms for financial instruments, transaction
prices involving related parties, and the correlation between the
observable transaction prices of identical financial instruments and
the market prices of held financial instruments.
2. The quoted market price of the same or identical financial
instruments in an inactive market.
-320-
3. The fair value is estimated on the basis of the results of a valuation
technique, and the market inputs used (i.e., interest rate, yield curve,
and fluctuation rate) are based on obtainable data from the market (an
observable input means an input can be derived from market data and
can reflect the expectation of market participants when the inputs
were used in evaluating the prices of financial instruments).
4. A majority of inputs are derived from observable market data, or the
input correlation can be tested based on observable market data.
Note 3: Input for a fair value measurement for a financial instrument classified
in Level 3 is not based on obtainable data from the market (an
unobservable input, such as volatility for a share option derived from the
share’s historical prices, as it does not generally represent current
market expectations about future volatility).

Financial risk management
(1)
Risk management organization structure
The financial risk management structures of the Company and its subsidiaries

Risk management policy:
For the purpose of improving the operation and development of the businesses of
the Company and its subsidiaries, to help them achieve their operating strategy
and targets, the principles and objectives with which the Company and its
subsidiaries must be equipped when setting up their financial management
policies are as follows:
A) The objectives of risk management
a) The Company and its subsidiaries establish the independent and
effective risk management structure and system to assess and supervise
the risk-burden ability, the statue of the risks received, responding
strategies toward decisive risks and the compliance situation of risk
management procedures of the Company and its subsidiaries.
b) The Company and its subsidiaries establish scientific risk management
system to identify, analyze and assess and handle the significant risk,
which has potential negative impact toward the Company and its
subsidiaries and then take risk response measures to mitigate the
significant risk in a reasonable statue.
B) Principle of risk management
a) With the scientific risk management system, the Company enables to
analyze the risk and to achieve reasonable returns.
b) Under the effective risk management structure, each segment executes
the daily management respectively. The risk management division is
established to submit the risk management report to the board of
directors regularly, in order to control the risk in time and effectively
and in time. When significant risk exposure is emerging, which
threatens the financial and business situation as well as the compliance
of regulations, proper measurements should be adopted and should
report it to the board of directors immediately.
c) The risk control mechanism supervises the capital adequacy of the
Company in consideration of the scale of business, credit risks, market
risk, operation risk and the trend of future operation. It aims at making
assets allocation in compliance with the overall risk exposure,
regulatory capital and the characteristics of liabilities.
-323-
C) The operation of risk management function should have characteristics as
following:
a) Timely: The operation system should provide risk forecasting report,
strategies and avoidance to the risk in accordance with the risks resulted
from the process of decision-making of the Company and its
subsidiaries so that the system can apply the risk management function
immediately.
b) Effectiveness: The Company and its subsidiaries should set up
appropriate risk management procedure, monitoring method and
emergency response plan to keep the effectiveness of the risk
management function against any possible risk.
(3)
Risk management category
The Company's and its subsidiaries' risk management function have already
identified and controlled the various risks as follows:
A) Asset-liability riskǺ
Deposit, loan and assets allocation are the main operation of financial
holding companies. This might lead financial holding companies to face an
imbalance between the maturity structure of assets and liabilities for the long
term or the short term and to exposure to the liquidity risk and the interest
rate risk caused by potential interest rate changes. Therefore, the risk
management functions of these two risks are as follows:
a) Liquidity risk:
In addition to be in compliance with the reserve requirement and the
lowest liquidity ratio required by the competent authority, the Bank
establishes liquidity analysis, triggers, and limit of indicators in order to
set up coping strategies to prevent poor liquidity.
b) Structural interest rate risk
In order to reduce the degree of interest risk exposure effectively, the
Company and its subsidiaries has built up interest rate sensitive balance
sheet, analyzed interest sensitive gap and established limit of indicators
for setting strategies and hedging programs.
-324-
B) Market risk
Market risk is defined as the exposure to market factors (such as interest,
stock price, exchange rate, etc.) that resulted in unstable price changes of
assets which arise from operating financial instrument actively and
expansion of business. To effectively evaluate the degree of market risk
exposure, the Company and its subsidiaries has set up management
indicators and its limit by establishing scientific methods and system of
market risk management.
C) Credit risk
Credit risk is defined in the event when counterparties fail to perform its
obligation which arising from operating financial instruments actively and
expanding the business with possible loss or financial status worsen by the
counterparties or credit customers. The Company and its subsidiaries should
set up standard evaluation method of asset quality and classification to
compute and control the exposure regarding the industry characteristics. The
method should be reviewed periodically to recognize allowance for credit
loss and reserve. According to the credit policy for credit rating and asset
diversity, the credit information of counterparties and credit customers
should be monitored and collected as management indicator to minimize the
risk of default and credit concentrations.
D) Operational risk (including legal risk)
The operational risk might be caused by internal issues, such as
inappropriate system, personnel negligence and system malfunction; or the
losses caused by external issues including legal risk. The Company and its
subsidiaries comply with the operational risk management policy, structure
and function which were established internally to reduce the significant
losses caused by operational risk and its negative impact on achievement of
objectives of operating and management. The Company and its subsidiaries
also achieve risk identification, measurement, monitor, control and reduction
by risk management activities such as self risk assessment and key risk
indicators report.
-325-
(4)
Risk management process
A) The Company’s and its subsidiaries risk management process includes the
identification, assessment, management, supervision and reporting of risks.
Risk assessments and responding strategies are explained as follows:
a) Recognition and evaluation
To effectively evaluate the degree of market risk exposure, the
Company and its subsidiaries has set management indicators and its
limit by establishing scientific methods and system of market risk
management. The evaluation can serve as a basis to manage and monitor
the Company and its subsidiaries possible market risk. The Company
and its subsidiaries internal market risk estimation model include
interest rate, foreign exchange, equity, product and other risk factors. In
addition to the traditional control methods such as authorize position
limit, stop-loss limit, limit of risk indicators (i.e.: Greeks, DVO1……),
Value at Risk (VaR), stress test and limit on permission suspension are
applied to measure market risk. Nevertheless, when data is applied for
stress test, in the extreme scenario the monitor and management of limit
is valued as the whole financial holding company.
b) Monitoring and reporting
1) Risk management department of each business unit
Daily supervision is conducted by each business unit by following
related internal policies and executing hierarchical authorization
control. Furthermore, reports should be submitted. When a
divergence or exception occurs, an analysis should be accompanied
with the report. When submitting a report, one should not only
follow the Company's notification procedures, but also send
notification to risk management division. If the risk indicator is
within the limit, general manager of the Company should approve
further measures and the top executive from the financial holding
company’s risk management division should review before giving
notice to the chairman. If, however, the loss of a business unit
exceeds its limit, it should ameliorate within a period of time unless
the character of the business operation unit requires seeking
approval from the Company's chairman. When the loss can’t be
dropped below the limit, the business operation unit needs to take
specific handling procedures. If necessary, financial holding
company’s risk management committee should be held to come up
with a resolution.
-326-
2) Risk management division
In compliance with financial holding company’s risk management
mechanism, risk management division would supervise the
indicators of market risk of the Company and its managed business
unit on the daily basis. If the Company's risk indicator exceeds the
limit, risk management division should analyze the irregularity and
report to the Company's general manager and chairman.
Furthermore, the general manager and chairman of the Parent
Company should be notified the case. If necessary, financial
holding company’s risk management committee should be held and
the case should be reported in the nearest board meeting.
c) Management of price risk of equity securities
1) The definition of equity security risk
Equity security market risk includes specific risk incurs due to the
price change of a specific equity security and a general market risk
incurs due to the price change of whole market. Primary equity
instruments held in the Company and its subsidiaries' trading
portfolios include listed and OTC warrants and stocks, securities
borrowing, convertible bonds, equity index futures, equity and
index options.
2) Equity securities risk management policies, procedures and

who have poor credit ratings.

Note: No rating means (1) not listed or TPEx securities without JihSun
International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd.'s rating; (2) listed and TPEx
securities whose listing period is less than one year and without the
Bank's rating.
4) Aging analysis on past due but not impaired financial assets
Past due but not impaired loans might results from some
temporary administration reasons so the customer is in the early
stages of delinquency but no actual impairment occurs yet.
According to the internal credit risk assets impairment evaluation
guideline, unless there are other objective evidences shown the
potential loss, a less than 90-day past due loan is typically not to
be treated as impairment.
The aging analysis on past due but not impaired financial assets is
as follows:

b) Stress testing
Stress tests carried out by JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. include
single-factor sensitivity test, historical scenario test and self-defined
scenario test. These tests are conducted to understand the impact on
JihSun Securities Co., Ltd.'s portfolio assuming a recurrence of
significant international and domestic events or an occurrence of
self-defined extreme condition.
The data applied for stress test in the extreme scenario used by JihSun
Securities Co., Ltd. considered the following factors to simulate the
probable loss.
1) Single factor sensitivity testΚ
The purpose of this test is to observe the change on a portfolio’s
value whenever a specific risk factor changes. For example, when
the risk factor is stock price of listed company, the single-factor
sensitivity test evaluates change on portfolio value because of
changes to stock price.
2) Historical scenario testΚ
The purpose of this test is to o simulate the portfolio under a
historical period, where the shocks are applied to following the
historical returns.
3) Self defined scenario testΚ
This test is similar to the single-factor sensitivity test and in
addition, takes into consideration the correlation of risk factors.

B) Market risk analysis- JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd.
a) Value at Risk (VaR)
Incompliance with Basel- Internal Model Approach for Market Risk,
JihSun International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. (the Bank) updates
market data on a daily basis. Exponentially-weighted moving average
(EWMA) is applied to compute volatility (Decay Factor =0.94) based
on the market price range for the past year. Additionally, correlation
of different market risk factor is considered and assumption of price
changed of risk factor follow certain pattern is made. With an
assistance of a computer, simulation of possible price path is
identified. The Bank uses the simulation as the basis of investment
portfolio’s profit allocation. Monte Carlo simulations may be applied
to compute Value at Risk of 99% confidence interval.
Variance-covariance matrices or Historical simulations can also be
applied. Furthermore, the Bank would exercise back testing to
evaluate the appropriateness of Value at Risk model on a daily basis.
Tables shown as below are the Value at Risk portfolios of JihSun
International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. for the years ended

b) Stress testing
Stress test is exercised to evaluate the greatest potential loss of
risk-weighted assets under the worst hypothetical scenarios. The test
is composed by three parts: (1) Single factor sensitivity test: The
purpose of this test is to observe the change on a portfolio’s value
whenever a specific risk factor changes. Assuming that the risk factor
is the stock price of common stocks, the single factor sensitivity test is
to evaluate the value change on a portfolio when the stock price
changes. (2) Historical scenario test: The purpose of this test is to
simulate the portfolio under a historical period, where the portfolio is
applied to following the historical returns. (3) Custom scenario test:
This test is similar to the single-factor sensitivity test and in addition,
takes the correlation of risk factors into consideration.

Significant Commitments and Contingents
(A) Significant contractǺ
An advisory company had informed and requested the Company to pay for the consultancy
fees in 2009. In accordance with the Company’s internal evaluations and the opinions from
the appointed lawyer, the Company could use three reasons to defend its position. One
reason was that the consultancy agreement did not complete the legal procedure within the
Company. Another was that the case of capital increase did not include in the range of the
consultancy agreement. Therefore, the Company thought that it was not necessary to
estimate and pay for the requested amount.
(B)
Significant lawsuit
(a)
Three customers of the Tai-Chung Branch of JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. alleged that
a former employee at the Tai-Chung Branch had sold their stock without their
permission, and stolen their bank savings. Therefore, the client requested JihSun
Securities Co., Ltd. to be responsible jointly and claimed $82,431 with interest (the
amount decreased to $72,899 in the lawsuit). As of December 31, 2009, Taichung
District Court had judged that JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. and the former employee
were jointly liable for the three plaintiffs amounting $33,968 with statutory interest
of 5% from October 21, 2003. During the lawsuit, JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. had
already reconciled with one of the customers and the remaining part had been denied
by Taiwan High Court Tai-Chung Branch on August 9, 2011, and JihSun Securities
Co., Ltd. had appealed to Supreme Court on September 1, 2011. The Supreme Court
on October 24, 2012 abandoned the original judgment. JihSun Securities Co., Ltd.
had already reconciled with the remaining two customers and paid $12,800 to them
on May 14, 2014.
(b)
In July, 2011, the customer of Yong-Kang Branch of JihSun Securities Co., Ltd.
alleged that he had suffered losses because an employee manipulated illegally his
stocks and futures and requested JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. to be responsible jointly
and claimed for $13,000. The Taiwan Tainan District Court has ruled in favor of
JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. The plaintiff disagreed with the adjudication made and
filed an appeal with Taiwan High Court Tainan Branch Court, which is currently still
in process. JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. determined the lawsuit to be the private
dispute between the client and the operating manager. Thus, no additional
compensation liability resides in JihSun Securities Co., Ltd. and no accrual shall be
booked.

In January, 2014, the four customers of the Company’s subsidiary, JihSun Securities
Co., Ltd.’s futures introducing broker business alleged that they had suffered losses,
and requested JihSun Securities Co. Ltd. and its subsidiary, JihSun Futures Co., Ltd.
and the employees to be jointly responsible and claimed for $109,428. The suit is
still under review by Taiwan Taipei District Court. JihSun Securities Co., Ltd.’s
futures introducing broker business had been inspected by the authority for several
times and had not been found any violation of regulation. JihSun Securities Co., Ltd.
and its subsidiary, JihSun Futures Co., Ltd. believe that no compensation liability
and no accrual shall be booked.
