income
Fees and commissions are generally recognized on an accrual basis when the service has been
provided. Loan fees are recognized when cash is advanced to borrowers.
Leases
The Bank is a lessee.
Leases entered into by the Bank are operating leases. The total payments made under operating
leases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the period
of the lease.
When an operating lease is terminated before the\lease period has expired, any payment required to
be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recoqnized as an expense in the period in which the

Acceptances

Bank expects most acceptances to be settled simultaneously with the reimbursement from the
customers. Acceptances are accounted for as offJbalance sheet transactions and are disclosed as
contingent liabilities and commitments.
FINANCIAL
RISK MANAGEMENT
By its nature the Bank's activities are principally rerted to the use of financial instruments. The Bank
accepts deposits from customers at fixed rates for arious periods and seeks to earn above average
interest margins by investing these funds in high qlality assets. The Bank seeks to increase these
margins by consolidating short-term funds and len ing for longer periods at higher rates whilst
maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet all claims th t may fall due.
The Bank also raises its interest margins by obtainlnq above average margins, net of provisions
through lending to retail borrowers.
Such exposures involve not only on-balance sheet loans and
advances, but also guarantees and letters of credit.
Credit risk
The Bank takes on exposure to credit risk which is 1e risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay
amounts in full when due. The Bank structures its edit risk by placing limits on the risk accepted in
relation to one borrower or group. This is monitore
on a revolving basis and subject to annual review.
Limits are also regulated by the Domestic Banks an Financial Institutions Act.

RISK MANAGEMENT
(CONTINUED)
Credit Risk (continued)
The Bank's risk management policies are designed to achieve a balance between risk and return and
minimize potential adverse effects of its' financial performance. The Bank therefore identifies and
analyzes these risks, designs internal controls to set appropriate limits, and to monitor these limits
through reliable and up to date information systems and reports.
Exposure to credit risk is managed through regular analysis of the borrowers ability to repay and by
changing limits when appropriate. Exposure is also managed in part by obtaining marketable
collateral and personal guarantees.
Credit Related Commitments
Guarantees and standby letters of credit, which represent irrevocable assurances that the Bank will
make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties, carry the
same risks as loans. Documentary and commercial letters of credit are written undertakings by the
Bank on behalf of a customer authorizing a third party to draw drafts on the Bank up to a stipulated
amount under specific terms and conditions.

RISK MANAGEMENT
(CONTINUED)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Bank is unable to meet its payment obligations associated with its
financial liabilities when they fall due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn. The consequence
may be the failure to meet obligations to repay depositors and fulfil commitments to lend.
The Bank's liquidity management
process includes:
• Day-to-day funding, managed by monitoring future cash flows to ensure that requirements can be
met. This includes replenishment of funds as they mature or are borrowed by customers. The
Group maintains an active presence in global money markets to enable this to happen;
