2016-2020 Strategic Development Plan Consolidate the portfolio, improve financial soundness and performance and diversify services

AMEN BANK designed a five-year long strategy to rebalance its figures and accounts by, on the one hand, rationalizing the credits granting structure, the rigorous selection of funding opportunities and the increase of the coverage rate of suspicious and litigating debts, and on the other by diversifying the structure of deposits (increasing the portion of savings’ sight deposits), combined with a disengagement policy of the most expensive resources in order to improve their cost.

Along with this, the bank considers recovery at the heart of its strategy to reduce the number of new classified debts and improve the efficiency of bad debts. Improving the recovery activity constitutes a double-fold priority for the bank: it is a system to improve the quality of the bank’s portfolio and also a profit center with direct impact on growth results.

In terms of resources, the bank will gear its policy to collect resources on sight deposits and savings, and will try to reduce concentration on institutional entities in order to reduce the cost of resources. Several measures will be initiated to improve the attractiveness of some products more attractive and a large-scale communication campaign will be carried out mainly to attract a new category of individual customers. This campaign will have a direct and substantial impact improving sales.

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 48 Notes to financial statements closed out on December 31, 2016 I. PRESENTATION OF THE BANK Amen Bank is a business corporation holding a capital of 127.312.500 dinars; it was created on June 6, 1967 according to Law n°67-51 dated December 7, 1967 regulating financial institutions.

The business capital of the bank increased from 122,220.000 dinars to 127,312.500 dinars by incorporating reserves and the distribution of 1,080.500 shares free of charge at the General Assembly’s Decision dated June 16, 2016.

The bank’s headquarters are located at Mohamed V Boulevard, 1002 in Tunis.

Amen Bank is a private deposit bank. Its corporate capital is divided into 25,462.500 shares, each worth of five (5) dinars, 11% of which are owned by foreign shareholders.

SHAREHOLDERS AMOUNT PERCENTAGE Tunisian shareholders 113 504 89% Foreign shareholders 13809 11% TOTAL 127 313 100% II. AUTHORITATIVE ACCOUNTING REFERENIAL FOR THE ELABORATION AND PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Amen Bank’s financial statements are prepared and presented according to the corporate accounting system approved by Law n°96-112 dated December 30, 1996. III- PERTINENT ACCOUNTING METHODS AND PRINCIPLES APPLIED Financial statements are closed out on December 31, 2015 by applying accounting agreements and principles provided for by Decree n° 96-2459 dated December 30, 1996 approving accounting conceptual framework and methods mentioned in accounting standards, mainly sector-based standards related to banking institutions (standards 21 to 25). The most significant accounting methods can be summarized as follows:

1- Credits to customers

1-1 Rules for presentation of credits to customers

Short term management credits are presented in the balance with their nominal values, after deducting interests credited in advance and not yet due. Midterm and long-term credits are presented in the balance with their nominal values increased by outstanding interests not yet due. Midterm credits progressively used by installment are accounted in the balance’s assets for their released value. Reserved bank charges and customers’ credits are presented at the level of corresponding asset items in a subtractive way.

1-2 Classification and evaluation of credits

Provisions on engagements are determined according to risk prudential coverage standards and monitoring standards of commitments subject of circular 91-24 dated December 17,1991, as modified by subsequent texts defining risk categories as follows:

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 49 Current Assets:

Assets which recovery is ensured, held by companies with balanced financial situations, satisfactory management and activity perspectives, a financial contributions volume that is compatible with their activities and their real reimbursement capacities.

Classified assets:

Class B1: Assets requiring special follow up

Assets which recovery is still ensured, concerning companies which activity sector faces difficulties or which financial situation is deteriorating.

Class B2: Uncertain assets

Assets which recovery is not clear in time, concerning companies with difficulties, and to which one of the following factors at least is added up to characteristics specific to class 1:

• The volume of financial contributions not compatible with the volume of activities; • Absence of updated financial statements due to the lack of information; • Management problems and litigations between partners; • Technical, commercial or supplying difficulties; • Deterioration of cash-flow jeopardizing the reimbursement of debts on time; • Existence of delays in the payment of credit principals and interests between 90 and 180 days.

Class B3: Concerning assets

Assets which recovery is uncertain concerning companies with possible loss rates. These assets mainly concern companies having more serious characteristics than Class 2 or having delay problems for the payment of credits’ principals and interests ranging between 180 and 360 days.

Class B4: Jeopardized assets

Assets concerning companies having more serious problems than Class 3 or having delay problems for the payment of credits’ principals and interests exceeding 360 days.

The supply rate selected by Amen Bank corresponds to the minimal rate per class of risk, as mentioned in TCB’s Circular n° 91-24 of December 17, 1991, applied to uncovered net risks, hence the amount of engagements deducted by reserved bank charges and the value of guarantees obtained. Regarding commitments exceeding 15 KTD Provisions are determined according to rates provided for in the TCB circular after deducting guarantees considered to be valid. Provision rates per class of risk applied to the uncovered net risks are the following:

• Uncertain assets 20% • Concerning assets 50% • Jeopardized assets 100%

As for commitments below 15 KTD, the bank determines required provisions by applying the average provision rate of commitments exceeding 15 KTD to outstanding balances excluding pre-salary credits and CREDIM (housing credits for individuals), taking in consideration the quality of risks and recovery perspectives.

Guarantees that were considered to be legally valid are:

• Deposits made with Amen Bank (certificates of deposit, term deposit accounts, savings accounts, ...); • Guarantees received by the Tunisian State; • Guarantees received by banks and insurance companies; • Guarantees received from the NGF (National Guarantee Fund) and SOTUGAR; • REAL guarantees: According to rules established by the Tunisian Central Bank, real estate collaterals may be taken into account if they meet at least one of the following conditions: • It is registered on the land title; • It is listed by the intervention of two notaries on an Arabic title; • There is a promise of mortgage on land purchased from the following organizations: AFI, AFT, AFH.

Furthermore, since the Fiscal Year 2006, and under sections 327 and 328 of the Civil and Commercial Procedure Code, some guarantees were noted as provisional opposition. This form of guarantee has been chosen considering an underlying assumption, namely, a historical high level of achievement and given the following cumulative conditions:

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 50 • Commitments in the borrowing relationship are concentrated exclusively at Amen Bank; • The protective opposition is registered in the land title which must not have additional mortgage charges in favor of other creditors; • The registration of the protective opposition is dated within two years; • A recent evaluation of the title subject of the protective opposition; • A discount of 10% of value of the security subject of the protective opposition. 1-3.Accounting of non-recoverable credits as losses

Debts equal to or less than 500 dinars, that cannot be recovered and other non-recoverable credits having been subject to verdicts shall be held for lost. Along with this, related provisions and reserved bank charges shall be recovered. 1-4 Accounting of revenues from loans granted to customers

Interests on short term management credits are deducted in advance. They are considered as products for their total amount and are regularized to take in consideration non-due interests on the financial statements’ closing date.

Interests on midterm credits are materialized by credit instruments or securities and are perceived afterwards. They are transferred as products as per maturity. The portion of outstanding interest not yet due on the date of the financial statements’ closing date are subject to regularization.

Interests and bank charges which recovery has become uncertain, observed when assessing assets and covering risks, are hosted in a liabilities account referred to as “reserved bank charges”.

Interests and bank charges related to litigated credits are automatically reserved and are not transferred through the results account. As for other products related to classified credits, they are initially accounted as products of the Bank then processed with computer software to be later reserved.

The resumption of reserved bank charges and their attribution at the level of the fiscal period’s revenues depend on the decrease of direct engagements further to disbursements made. For this reason, disbursements made on credits are systematically assigned on reserved bank charges already constituted.

1-5 Follow up of the 2011 special situation measures:

1.5.1 Collective Provision:

The collective provision applied for fiscal year 2011 as a special situation measure has become a permanent enforceable provision to cover latent risks on Class 0 and 1 commitments.

Therefore, by applying provisions of the TCB’s circular 2012-20, the Bank aggregated general type provisions through draws from the balance results called “collective provisions” to cover latent risks on current commitments and commitments requiring special follow up as per Article 8 or Circular 91-24 dated December 17, 1991.

As for the evaluation of the requested provision’s amount, the bank applied the referential methodology instructed by the TCB.

This methodology provides for the following: • Combining commitments 0 and 1 in homogenous groups according to the type of debtors and business activity. • Calculating an average migration rate for each group corresponding to additional risks of the group considered for N year, reflected on engagements 0 and 1 of the same group in N-1; • Determining a scalar factor for each group reflecting the aggravation of risks in 2016. The scalar factor cannot be less than 1. • Determining an average provisioning rate on additional risk for each group and application of this rate on pending commitments 0 and 1 related to subject group.

The amount of collective provisions is reviewed whenever annual financial statements are closed out. The increase of the required collective provision results in an additional endowment taken from the year’s charges, and inversely the reduction of the required collective provision generates recovery corresponding to this reduction charged against the year’s products.

The application of these rules resulted in a collective provisional amount of 62 800 KTD. Consequently, due to the collective provision of 52 951 KTD aggregated in 2015, an addition provision of 9 849 KTD was allocated for Fiscal Year 2016.

1.5.2 Credits rescheduled in 2011 and follow up in 2016:

In 2011, by applying provisions of the TCB’s circular n. 2011-04, two measures were applied:

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 51 First measure:

Reschedules made by the bank in compliance with subject circular have neither resulted in classification of the subject company in Class 2, 3, or 4 as per Circular 91-24 nor in the revision of the classification assigned to the company on December 31, 2010. In 2016, this measure was no more in force. The bank made the classification of all engagements in accordance with provisions of circular 91-24.

Secondmeasure:

Products, bank charges on debts and unpaid interests on reschedules allocated in the framework of Circular 2011-04 were reserved. A 30 thousand TD recovery was observed in 2016. 1-6 Additional provisions:

Under the provisions of the BCT circular No. 2013-21 of December 30, 2013, credit institutions must make additional provisions on assets with seniority in grade 4 or above 3 years for net risk coverage and in accordance with the following minimum amounts: 40% for assets in grade 4, with 3 to 5 years seniority; 70% for assets in Class 4 with 6 to 7 years seniority; 100% for assets with higher seniority in the class 4 or equal to 8 years.

The application of these rules generated a provision amounting to118,003KTD.

1-7 Exceptional measures for the tourism sector

In accordance with provisions of CBT Circular n. 2015-12, credit institutions may postpone the payment of the main amount and interests of installments due for 2015 and 2016 related to credits granted to companies working in the tourism sector. The reimbursement may be made as of 2017 over a period taking in consideration companies’ specific capacities.

Similarly, credit institutions may grant new exceptional credits that can be reimbursed over 7 years including 2 grace years devoted to funding needs related to the attractiveness of tourism companies for the period stretching between July 1st, 2015 and December 31st, 2015.

Credit institutions having postponed reimbursement installments or having granted new exceptional credits may: Maintain the classification set up at the end of December 2014 in Article 8 of Circular 91-24 stated above; Freeze old years as per Article 10 of Circular 91-24 stated above.

Concerned credit institutions are required not to account in their revenues interests with postponed reimbursements and interests related to new loans granted in the last two grace years only if reimbursements are actually made.

The application of this rule generated an appropriation of reserved bank charges with an amount of 27,724 KTD. An additional stock of 18090 KTD of debts bills on the tourism sector was built up , including a net appropriation of 6050 KTD for fiscal year 2016.

2- Security Portfolio 2-1 Security portfolio presentation rules

Securities with fixed or variable revenues are presented in the balance statement either in the commercial portfolio item or in the investment portfolio column according to their validity and detention intentions. Applied classification rules are the following:

Commercial Securities Portfolio:

Transaction securities They concern fixed or variable revenue securities acquired in order to be shortly sold again; their negotiation market is considered to be fluid.

Placement securities They represent securities not responding to criteria selected for transaction or investment securities.

Investment Portfolio:

Investment Securities: Acquisitions with the firm intention to hold until expiry, and for which the bank holds sufficient resources to materialize this intention.

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 52 Participation securities Shares and other securities with variable revenues held to generate satisfactory profitability over a long period, or to enable sustainability of bank relations with the issuing company.

Shares in associated companies, partnerships and shares in interconnected companies Shares which durable ownership is considered to be useful to the bank’s activity, enabling or not to have a notable influence, a joint or exclusive control on the issuing company.

Participation with retrocession agreement

These commitments are materialized by securities and representing shares in the business capital. Essentially, these commitments establish a relationship of creditor - debtor between the bank and the issuer. 2-2 Security portfolio evaluation rules

Securities are accounted on their acquisition date based on their acquisition costs, excluding all fees and charges, with the exception of study and consulting fees engaged on the acquisition of investment securities, participation or shares in associated companies, partnerships and shares in inter-connected companies Underwritten and non-liberated participations are registered as engagements not included in the balance for their issuing value. On the closing date, the evaluation of securities is made as follows:

Transaction securities Securities are assessed based on the market value (average comparative stock price). The price variation, consecutive to their evaluation based on the market value, is reflected on results.

Placement securities Securities are valorized each separately based on the market value for listed securities, and at their right value for non-listed securities. There is no compensation between underlying premiums of some securities with underlying losses on other securities. The latent loss in value caused by the difference between the accounting value and the market value results in the constitution of provisions, as opposed to latent premiums that are not noted.

Investment securities The processing of latent premiums on these securities is the same as that of placement securities. Latent loss in value can receive provisions in the two following cases only:

• Strong probability that the institution will not keep securities until their term; • Existence of deficiency risks at the level of the issuer of securities.

2-3 Accounting revenues on security portfolio Interests are accounted taking in consideration the engagement accounting principle. Therefore, interests to receive on Treasury Bonds and their obligations are noted on the period’s results. Dividends on securities with variable revenues held by the bank are taken into account in results as soon as their distribution is officially approved. Transfer premiums related to investment securities acquired in the framework of brokerage agreements are assimilated to interests and taken in consideration as part of revenues as they are still due.

3- Consideration of products

Interests, assimilated products, commissions and other revenues are taken in consideration in results concerning the period ranging between January 1 and December 31, 2016. Products due but which deadline has not arrived yet are integrated in results while cashed products relating to periods later than December 31, 2016 are deducted from results.

4- Consideration of charges

Interests and borne commissions, personnel charges and other charges are taken in consideration in results concerning the period ranging between January 1and December 31, 2016. Products due but which deadline has not arrived yet are integrated in results while charges disbursed related to periods later than December 31, 2016 are added to results. 5- Fixed Assets 5-1 Operation buildings

Operation fixed assets are accounted based on their acquisition cost, linearly self-liquidating at the following rates:

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 53 FIXED ASSETS CATEGORY RATE IN FORCE Non-re-evaluated buildings 2% Re-evaluated buildings 5% Furnishing, improvements and installations 10% Elevators 10% Software from 10% to 33% Lease allowances 5% Computer equipment 15% Transportation equipment 20% Office furniture 10% Operation equipment 10% Air conditioners 20% Terminals and Electronic Payment Equipment 20% Safes 4% and 10%

5-2.Unexploited buildings acquired when recovering debts

In the framework of credit recovery, the bank acquired properties sold in the framework of real estate selling procedures. The acquisition price corresponds to prices defined in Tender documents prepared by juridical experts specifically appointed by the Court. Assets are classified as “unexploited” buildings under item AC6 – fixed asset values.

Unexploitedbuildings are accounted according to their acquisition price increased by incurred costs and fees. With dispensation of provisions of NCT 5 related to tangible assets, buildings are processed with reference to provisions of the international financial record standard 5 (IFRS 5) related to non-current assets held for resale and abandoned activities.

With reference to provisions of IFRS 5, unexploited buildings are not subject to depreciation. However, they are assessed each individually and are indicated in the annual financial statements, at the lowest value between their accounting value and the real value reduced by costs of sale. 6- Off-balance engagements accounting

Financing engagements are considered off- balance when contracted and are transferred to the balance as funds are released. 7-Foreign currency operations conversion rules

Charges and products stated in foreign currency are converted in dinars based on the exchange rate on their consideration date. 8-Reevaluation of foreign currency exchange positions

Hard currency exchange positions were converted in a reference currency based on the inter-bank exchange rate on the last day of December 2016. Resulting latent exchange rates were taken in consideration in results of Fiscal Year 2016. 9-Tax Charge

Tax charge is determined and accounted by using the tax-due-for-payment method.

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 92 Notes about Amen Bank’s Consolidated financial statements Fiscal Year closed out on December 31, 2016

1 - REFERENTIAL FOR THE DESIGN AND PRESENTATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Amen bank Holding’s financial statements are prepared and presented according to accounting principles and standards commonly applied in Tunisia, mainly described in:

Conceptual framework of the corporate accounting system; General accounting standard n.1; Technical standards (NCT 1 to NCT 20); Banking accounting standards (NCT 21 to 25); Accounting standards related to OPCVM (NCT 16 to NCT 19); Consolidation accounting standards (NCT 35 to 37); Accounting standard related to joint ventures (NCT 38); and Rules of the Central Bank of Tunisia stated by the circular letter 91-24 dated December 17, 1991 and amended by subsequent circulars 2 - CLOSING DATE Consolidated financial statements are established based on financial statements of companies covered by the consolidation perimeter closed on December 31, 2016. When financial statements of companies covered by the consolidation perimeter are calculated at different closing dates, adjustments shall be carried out in order to take into account effects of transactions and other important events taking place during the period separating these dates and the calculation date of the parent company’s financial statements. 3 - BASES FOR MEASUREMENT AMEN BANK Group’s financial statements are calculated based on the measurement of property holdings at their historic cost. 4 - CONSOLIDATION PERIMETER AND METHODS Amen Bank Bank’s consolidation perimeter includes: - Mother Company: AMEN BANK - Subsidiaries: Companies over which Amen Bank holds exclusive control; - Associated companies: Companies over which Amen Bank has a significant influence.

Methods used for the consolidation of companies covered by the perimeter are the following:

4.1 Global Integration

This method consists in substituting the cost of equity shares held in subsidiaries by the subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities while releasing the share of minority shareholders’ interest in the equity capital and revenues. This method applies to financial companies and to debts recovery companies exclusively under the control of AMEN BANK

4.2Equity Accounting

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 93 According to this method, the stake is initially entered at acquisition cost, and then it is adjusted in order to take into account changes taking place before the acquisition of the investor’s share in the net asset of the consolidated company.

This method applies to companies over which AMEN BANK has significant influence.

The following table summarizes consolidation perimeter and methods used for the calculation of Amen Bank Holding’s consolidated financial statements:

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 94 5. PERTINENT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND METHODS

5.1 Credits to Customers

5.1.1 Rules for the presentation of credits to customers

Short term management credits are shown in the balance based on their nominal value, after deducting interests calculated in advance not yet due. Midterm and long-term credits are shown in the statement based on their nominal value increased by interests due but which deadlines have not arrived yet. Midterm credits progressively used by installment are accounted in the statement’s assets based on their released value. Reserved bank charges and provisions on customers’ debts are presented at the level of corresponding asset items based on a subtractive method. 5.1.2 Classification and evaluation of debts

Provisions on commitments are determined according to prudential standards related to risk coverage and to the follow up of commitments subject of Circular 91-24, as modified by subsequent texts defining classes of risks as follows:

Current assets:

Assets which coverage is secured concerning companies having a well-balanced financial situation, satisfactory management and activity perspectives, a financial contribution volume that is compatible with their activities and real reimbursement capacities.

Classified assets:

ClassB1:Assets requiring specific follow up Assets which coverage is still secured for companies acting in sectors facing difficulties or with deteriorating financial situations.

ClassB2: Uncertain assets Assets which timely debt coverage in uncertain, concerning companies facing difficulties, which in addition to Class 1 characteristics, face at least one of the following situations: - - A financial contributions volume not compatible with the activity volume; - Absence of an updating process of the financial situation due to the lack of information; - Management problems and conflicts between partners; - Technical, commercial or supply difficulties; - Deterioration of the cash flow impeding debt reimbursements within deadlines; - Presence of payment delays of the main amount or of interests, ranging between 90 and 180 days.

Class B3: Concerning assets Assets which coverage is threatened, concerning companies threatened by potential loss. These assets concern companies, which in addition to Class 2 characteristics, face delays in the payment of main debts and interest ranging between 180 and 360 days.

Class B4: Jeopardized assets Assets concerning companies facing serious conditions, and which in addition to Class 3 characteristics know payment delays of their mains and interests exceeding 360 days.

The provisioning rate adopted by Amen Bank corresponds to the minimal rate per class of risk as provided for by the CBT circular n° 91-24 dated December 17, 1991, applied to the non-covered net risk, i.e. the commitment’s amount deducted by reserved bank charges and the value of received guarantees. Regarding commitments exceeding 15 KTD, provisions are determined according to rates mentioned in the CBT Circular after deducting guarantees considered to be valid. Provision rates per class of risk applied to the uncovered net risk are as follows: Uncertain assets20%, Concerning assets50%, Jeopardized assets 100%.

Concerning commitments that are less than 15 KTD, the bank determines the required provisions by applying the average provision rate of commitments exceeding 15 KTD, with outstanding dues not included pre-salary and CREDIM credits (housing credits to individuals), taking in consideration the quality of these risks and coverage perspectives. Guarantees taken in consideration by the bank are detailed as follows:

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 95 Guarantees received from the Tunisian State;  Guarantees received from banks and insurance companies; Guarantees received by FNG (Guarantee National Fund) and SOTUGAR, Deposits allocated by Amen Bank (cash bills, term accounts, saving accounts …) Real guarantees: based on rules issued by the CBT, mortgages can be taken in consideration only if they fill at least one of the following conditions: When registered in the real estate log,  Registered and witnessed by two notaries on the Arabic Log;  In the presence of a mortgage promise on a parcel of land acquired from one of the following:AFI,AFT, and AFH.

On the other hand, some guarantees have been accepted since FY 2006 by applying Articles 327 and 328 of the civil and commercial procedures code, in the form of protective oppositions. This form of guarantee was adopted based on an underlying hypothesis, i.e. a historical rate of high achievements and taking in consideration the following cumulative conditions.

Commitments taken by the borrowing relation are fully concentrated at the level of Amen Bank;  The protective opposition is inscribed on the real estate certificate, which shall not contain other mortgage charges to the profit of other creditors; The registration date of the conservatory opposition is at least two years old; A recent evaluation of the title subject of the protective opposition; A 10% decrease in the value of the title subject of the protective opposition.

5.1.3 Accountability of debts that cannot be recovered considered as loss

Debts that cannot be recovers and which are less than 500 dinars and other non-recoverable debts having been ruled out shall be considered as loss. Along with this, related provisions and bank charges shall be resumed.

5.1.4 Accountability of revenues generated by loans granted to customers

Interests on short term management credits are accounted for in advance. They are considered to be products for their total amount and shall be regularized to take in consideration interests not yet due on the financial statements’ closing out date. Interests on mid-term credits are materialized by credits instruments or securities and are disbursed on time. They are accounted as products as their installments are due. The portion of ongoing interests but not yet due on the financial statements closing out date shall be regularized. Interests and bank charges which recovery has become uncertain, noted in the evaluation of assets and covering risks, will be hosted in a liabilities account called “reserved bank charges”. Interests and bank charges related to contentious debts are automatically reserved and shall not be accounted for in the results’ accounts. As for other products related to classified debts, they are initially accounted for in the Bank’s products than calculated by a computer application to be reserved. The recovery of reserved bank charges and their attribution in the fiscal year’s revenues depend on the reduction of direct commitments further to cash collection. For this reason, the collection of debts shall be automatically attributed to the already constituted reserved bank charges.

5.2 Follow up of short-term measures enounced in 2011 5.2.1 Collective Provisions

The collective provision applied for FY 2011 as a temporary measure has become a permanent provision to observe and cover latent risks on commitments of Class 0 and 1. Therefore, in applying provisions of the CBT Circular N° 2012-20, the bank withdrew from general provisions referred to as “collective provisions” to cover latent risks on current commitments and on commitments requiring specific follow up as per Article 8 of circular 91-24 dated December 17, 1991.

To evaluate the required provision amount, the bank applied the referential methodology dictated by the CBT. This methodology provides for:

Consolidate commitments 0 and 1 in homogenous groups by nature of debtor and by activity sector; Calculation of the average migration rate for each group corresponding to the considered group’s additional risks for N year reported to commitments 0 and 1 of the same group of year N-1. Determine a scaling factor per group reflecting the aggravation of risks in 2016. This scaling factor cannot be less than 1: Determine an average provisioning rate on the additional risk per group and apply this rate on outstanding commitments 0 and 1 of subject group;

The amount of collective provisions is reviewed when annual accounts are closed out.

The increase of the required collective provision induced an additional endowment charged against the fiscal year and reversely, the reduction of the required collective provision induces recovery corresponding to the decrease charged on the fiscal year’s products.

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 96 The application of these rules resulted in collective provisions amounting to 62 800KDT. Therefore, with consideration to the collective provision of 52 951KDT constituted in 2015, a net additional provision of 9 849 KTD was allocated for FY 2016.

5.2.2 Credits rescaled during 2011 and follow up in 2016:

In 2011, with the enforcement of provisions stated in the CBT Circular N° 2011-04, two measures were applied:

First measure:

Reschedules undertaken by the bank according to subject circular have neither classified the concerned company in Class 2, 3 or 4 as per circular 91-24 not have they reviewed classifications allocated to the company as f December 31, 2010. In 2016, this measure is no more in force. The bank proceeded with the classification of all commitments in compliance with provisions of circular 91-24.

Second measure:

Products, debts’ bank charges and unpaid interests on reschedules granted in the framework of Circular 2011-04 have been reserved. A recovery of 30 KTD has been made in 2016.

5.3 Additional provisions

As per provisions of the CBT circular n°2013-21 dated December 30, 2013, credit institutions must constitute additional provisions on assets that are at least 3 years in Class 4 to cover net risks, according to the following minimal quotas:

40 % for Class 4 assets that are 3 to 5 years old; 70% for Class 4 assets that are 6 to 7 years old; 100% for Class 4 assets that are at least 8 years old.

5.4 Exceptional measures for the tourism sector

In accordance with provisions of the CBT circular n. 2015-12, credit institutions may postpone the payment of principal installments and their interests due or to be due in 2015 and 2016 representing credits granted to companies operating in the tourism sector.

Reimbursement may be made as of 2017 over a period taking in consideration companies’ specific capacities. Credit institutions may also grant new credits that can be paid back over a period of 7 years including 2 grace years to finance tourism activities performed between July st1 , 2015 and December 31st, 2016.

Credit institutions postponing the payment of installments or granting new exceptional credits may: Keep the classification defined at the end of December 2014 in article 8, Circular 91-24 mentioned above; Freeze the age of credits according to Article 10 fourth of Circular 91-24 stated above.

Credit institutions concerned by these measures are required not to account as part of their revenues, interests which reimbursement is reported and interests on new loans granted during the two grace yearsunless they are actually received.

The application of the two rules stated above led to the constitution of reserved bank charges amounting to 27 72 KTD. In addition, a collective provision allocation of the tourism sector’s debts amounting to18,090 KTD was also constituted, including a net endowment for FY 2016 worth of 6,050 KTD. 5.5Securities portfolio

5.5.1 Basis for the presentation of portfolio securities

Fixed income or variable-income securities are reported on the balance sheet either in the commercial portfolio section or in investment portfolio section, according to their duration and intended holding. The classification rules are the following:

Commercial securities portfolio:

Trading securities These are fixed or variable income securities purchased for resale in the short term,with a trading market considered to be fluid.

Annual report Amen BANK 2016 I 97 Investment securities Securities that do not meet criteria for transaction or investment securities.

Unpaid subscribed stakes are registered off balance for their face value. On reporting date, titles are assessed as follows:

Trading securities These securities are assessed at market value (average weighted market price). Changes in the rate, following their assessment at market value, are charged to income.

Placement securities These securities are valued separately for each title, at market value for listed securities and at the fair value for unlisted securities. No compensations are to be made between unrealized gains on certain securities with unrealized losses on other securities.

The unrealized loss resulting from the difference between the book value and market value results in the creation of a provision, unlike unrealized gains which are not recognized.

Investment securities The acquisition cost of investment securities is compared with the market value for listed securities and with fair value for unlisted securities. Unpaid added-values on investment securities shall not be accounted.

Unpaid loss of value resulting of the difference between the accounting value (possibly adjusted with depreciations, bonuses or haircuts) and the market value or the securities’ real value shall be accounted for only in the two following cases:

When due to new circumstances, there is a high probability that the institution does not hold securities until maturity. the possibility for the existence of default risk on the part of the issuer of securities.

5.5.3 Accountability of income on securities portfolio

Interestsare recognized taking into account the principle of accrual accounting. Thus, interest receivable on Treasury bills and bonds are recognized as profit of the period.
