CEO’S STATEMENT

Outlook for 2012 Strong domestic demand, increased government spending and major projects will be the growth drivers for Malaysia’s economy this year. This is similar to the last three years where the economy had been driven by domestic demand.

Malaysia has not been spared by global developments, especially those in Europe and the US, but with more than 50% of the country’s trade is with Asia, its export demand has been somewhat sustained. Household debt seems to be a more important factor driving rate decisions, as policymakers reiterate that macro-prudential measures will be ineffective if interest rates are not normalised. While headline inflation is expected to moderate in 2012, there is still upside risks to inflation emerging from supply disruptions as well as higher energy and commodity prices.

Private consumption will be supported by stable employment conditions, income growth and public sector measures. Investment activity will be supported by the domestic-oriented industries, the commodity sector and the public sector.

Citi is well-positioned to seize the opportunities rising from the market trends for our client’s benefit and for the overall Malaysian economy. We will continue to maximise the value we already have – such as our unmatched global presence – and by creating new value through investments in people, technology and services.

Teams of students form ‘brokerage houses’ which use RM1,000 in ‘seed money’ to trade in a simulated stock market comprising 20 stocks in the energy, manufacturing, trade, communications and hospitality sectors.

18. Reserves (continued)

The share premium arose from the issuance of 121,696,972 ordinary shares of RM1 each at an issue price of RM4.125 per share.

The statutory reserve is maintained in compliance with Section 36 of the Banking and Financial Institutions Act 1989 and is not distributable as cash dividends. No transfers were made to the statutory reserve during the year as the Bank has met the reserve requirements.

The fair value reserve is in respect of unrealised fair value gains and losses on financial investments available-for-sale.

Subject to agreement by the Inland Revenue Board, the Bank has Section 108 tax credit and tax exempt income to frank approximately RM1.66 billion of its distributable reserves at 31 December 2011 if paid out as dividends.

The Finance Act 2007 introduced a single tier company income tax system with effect from year of assessment 2008. As such, the Section 108 tax credit balance as at 31 December 2007 will be available to the Bank until such time the credit is fully utilised or upon expiry of the six-year transitional period on 31 December 201 3, whichever is earlier.

The unfunded portion of the total liability will continue to be borne by Citibank Berhad. Projected unit credit method is used to calculate the actuarial present value of promised retirement benefits.

Principal actuarial assumptions used at the reporting date (expressed as weighted averages): Group and Bank 2011 2010

Assumptions regarding future mortality are based on published statistics and mortality tables. The average life expectancy of an individual retiring is at the age of 55 years.

The overall expected long-term rate of return on assets is 6.5% per annum. The expected long-term rate of return is based on the portfolio as a whole and not on the sum of the returns on individual asset categories.

iii. Share capital accumulation plan (CAP)

The Group and the Bank have a number of capital accumulation programmes for its officers and employees. The Core CAP is a discretionary award of restricted shares. The number of CAP shares in a Core CAP award is calculated using a 25% discount from the market price of Citigroup common stock. Supplemental CAP is a discretionary retention award programme composed of an award of CAP shares. The difference between Supplemental CAP award and a Core CAP award is that generally, a Supplementary CAP is given in addition to the discretionary award package and the number of shares awarded will not be based on a discount from the market price of Citigroup common stock. CAP granted in 2011 typically vest 25% each year for four years, with the first vesting date occurring 12 months after the grant date. Shares acquired upon exercise of a CAP option generally may not be sold for two years following the exercise date. Citibank Berhad l 2011 Annual Report 069

31. Financial risk management

The Group’s and the Bank’s risk management framework are designed to monitor, evaluate and manage the principal risk they assume in conducting its activities. These risks include the following:

• credit risk • market risk • operational risk

1. Credit Risk

Credit risk is the potential for financial loss resulting from the failure of a borrower or counter party to honour its financial or contractual obligations. Credit arises in lending, trading, and derivatives transactions, securities transactions, settlement and when the Bank acts as an intermediary on behalf of its clients and other third parties.

The credit risk management process of the Bank relies on corporate-wide standards to ensure consistency and integrity, with business-specific policies and practices to ensure applicability and ownership. While business managers and independent risk management are jointly responsible for managing risk/return trade offs as well as establishing limits and risk management practices, the origination and approval roles are clearly defined and segregated. In addition to conforming to established corporate standards, independent credit risk management is responsible for establishing policies that comply with local regulations and any other relevant legal requirements.

Independent credit risk management is also responsible for implementing portfolio limits, including obligor limits through risk rating, maturity and business segments limits to ensure diversification of portfolios, monitoring business risk management performance, providing on-going assessment of portfolio credit risk and approving new products.

Continuous monitoring of credit behaviour aided by sophisticated scoring modules, plus portfolio delinquency performance allows independent credit risk management to constantly assess the health of the credit portfolio.

The Group and the Bank secure various forms of collateral to mitigate credit risk exposures. The main types of collateral obtained by the Group and the Bank to mitigate credit risk are as follows:

o for residential mortgages - charges over residential properties o for commercial property loans - charges over the properties being financed o for share margin financing - pledges over quoted securities o for other loans - charges over business assets such as premises, inventories, trade receivable or deposits 080 Citibank Berhad l 2011 Annual Report

2. Market Risk

Market risk encompasses price risk and liquidity risk, both arising in the normal course of business operations of the Group and the Bank. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters while optimising the return on risk.

Market risk in the Group and the Bank are managed through corporate-wide standards and business-specific policies and procedures with the help of responsible personnel and committees delegated by the Board of Directors such as the Risk Management Committee, Asset and Liability Committee and Market Risk Management. The business is required to establish risk measures, limits and controls, clearly defining approved risk profiles within the parameters of the Group and the Bank’s overall risk appetite and for operating within the established market risk limit framework. Independent market risk management establishes policies and procedures, approves limits and monitors exposures against limits.

Price Risk Price risk is the risk associated to earnings arising from changes in interest rate, foreign exchange rates, equity and commodity prices and in their implied volatilities. Price risk arises in non-trading as well as trading portfolios. Price risk in non-trading portfolio is measured predominantly through earnings-at-risk and factor sensitivities supplemented with additional tools such as stress testing and cost-to-close analysis. Price risk in trading portfolios is measured through tools such as factor sensitivities, value-at-risk and stress testing.

Interest rate risk primarily results from the timing differences in the repricing of interest bearing assets, liabilities and commitments. It is also related to positions from non-interest bearing liabilities including shareholders’ funds and current accounts, as well as from certain fixed rate loans and liabilities.

The Group and the Bank are exposed to such risks associated with the effects of the fluctuations in the prevailing market interest rates on its financial positions and cash flows.

Factor sensitivities are expressed as the change in the value of a position for a defined change in a market risk factor. For the sensitivity analysis provided in this section, the Group and the Bank have used a 100 basis points movement for interest rates and a 6% movement in foreign exchange rates to measure the impact of these market risk movements on the Group and the Bank.

Interest rate risk – Sensitivity analysis At 31 December 2011, it is estimated that a general increase of 100 basis points in interest rate, with all other variables held constant, would decrease the Bank’s profit before tax by approximately RM117,588,115 whereas a general decrease of 100 basis points in interest rate, with all other variables held constant, would have an equal but opposite effect.

The sensitivity analysis above has been determined assuming that the change in interest rates had occurred at the reporting date and had been applied to the exposure to interest rate risk for both derivative and non-derivative financial instruments in existence at that date and that all other variables, in particular foreign exchange rates, remain constant. The above basis point increase or decrease represents management’s assessment of a reasonably possible change in interest rates over the period until the next annual reporting date.

Foreign currency risk – Sensitivity analysis As at 31 December 2011, it is estimated that a movement of 6% in Ringgit Malaysia (RM) against foreign currencies, with all other variables held constant, would result in maximum loss of approximately RM2,276,286.

The sensitivity analysis has been determined assuming that the change in foreign exchange rates had occurred at the reporting date and had been applied to the Group’s and the Bank’s exposure to currency risk for both derivative and non-derivative financial instruments in existence at that date, and that all other variables, in particular interest rate, remains constant. The sensitivity analysis includes balances where the denomination of the balances is in a currency other than the Ringgit Malaysia (RM).

The stated changes represent management’s assessment of reasonably possible changes in foreign exchange rates over the period until the next annual reporting date. Results of the analysis represent an aggregation of the effects on the Group’s and the Bank’s profit before tax measured in the respective functional currencies, translated into Ringgit Malaysia (RM) at the exchange rate ruling at the balance sheet date for presentation purposes.

2. Market Risk (continued)

Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group and the Bank will not be able to meet its financial commitments when due. Under the Group’s and the Bank’s internal liquidity risk management policy, there is a set of standards for the measurement of liquidity risk in order to ensure consistency, stability in methodologies and transparency of risk. Management of liquidity is performed on a daily basis and is monitored by the Treasurer. The Asset and Liability Committee and the Treasurer undertake the joint responsibility of overall liquidity risk management which covers establishing and endorsing the annual funding and liquidity plan, liquidity limits, liquidity ratios, market triggers and periodic stress tests.

The Group and the Bank include the net cash flow position for derivatives as part of their daily liquidity reports under off balance sheet items, which are consolidated together with the on balance sheet items to monitor the overall liquidity position of the Group and the Bank. The daily report prepared to monitor the daily liquidity position is known as the Market Access Report (“MAR”). It is prepared by major currencies and it has maturity analysis ranging from overnight to more than 2 years and limits are set for each tenor bucket. Maturity mismatches are monitored through the daily MAR report for necessary treasury actions on funding and gapping.

Limits are determined by the ultimate holding company and are reviewed as often as on a quarterly basis and is done in conjunction with the liquidity stress testing.

The following table indicates the effective interest rate at the balance sheet date and periods in which the financial instruments reprice or mature, whichever is earlier.

3. Operational Risk

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems, or from external events. It includes reputation and franchise risk associated with business practices or market conduct that the Group and the Bank may undertake and includes the risk of failing to comply with applicable laws, regulations and Citigroup policies.

Operational risk is inherent in the Group’s and the Bank’s business activities and is managed through an overall framework with checks and balances that include recognised ownership of the risk by businesses and independent risk management oversight. The Group and the Bank mitigate their operational risk by setting up its key controls and assessments according to Citigroup’s and Regulators’ standards. They are also evaluated, monitored, and managed by its sound governance structure.

The Group and the Bank’s Self Assessments and Operational Risk Framework include the Risk and Control Self-Assessment and the Operational Risk Policy, and define the Group’s and the Bank’s approach to operational risk management. The objective of the policy is to establish a consistent approach to assessing relevant risks and the overall control environment across the Group and the Bank, to facilitate adherence to regulatory requirements and other corporate initiatives.

The methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments are as follows:

a. Cash and Short Term Funds, and Securities Purchased under Resale Agreements

The carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of the fair values because of their short-term nature.

b. Deposits and Placements with Financial Institutions

The fair values of deposits and placements with remaining maturities less than one year are estimated to approximate their carrying values. For deposits and placements with maturities of more than one year, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using the prevailing market rates of similar remaining maturities.

c. Financial Assets Held-for-Trading, Financial Investments Available-for-Sale and Financial Investments Held-to-Maturity

The fair values are estimated based on quoted or observable market prices as at statements of financial position date. Where such quoted or observable market prices are not available, the fair values are estimated using pricing models or discounted cash flow techniques. Where discounted cash flow technique is used, the expected future cash flows are discounted using prevailing market rates for similar instruments as at statements of financial position date. 104 Citibank Berhad l 2011 Annual Report

Notes To The Financial Statements

32. Financial assets and liabilities (continued)

32.2 Fair value of financial instruments (continued)

d. Loans, Advances and Financing

The fair values of fixed rate loans with remaining maturity of less than one year and variable rate loans are estimated to approximate their carrying values. For fixed rate loans and Islamic loans with maturities of more than one year, the fair values are estimated based on expected future cash flows of contractual instalment payments and discounted at prevailing rates at statements of financial position date offered for similar loans to new borrowers with similar credit profiles, where applicable. In respect of impaired loans, the fair values are deemed to approximate the carrying values, net of individual assessment allowance for bad and doubtful debts and financing. Collective assessment allowance is excluded from the carrying value.

e. Deposits from Customers and Deposits and Placements of Banks and Other Financial Institutions

The fair values for deposit liabilities payable on demand (demand and savings deposits) or with remaining maturities of less than one year are estimated to approximate their carrying values at statements of financial position date. The fair values of fixed deposits with remaining maturities of more than one year are estimated based on discounted cash flows using rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair values of Islamic deposits are deemed to approximate their carrying values as at statements of financial position date as the profit rates are determined at the end of their holding periods based on the profit generated from the assets invested. For negotiable instrument of deposits, the estimated fair values are based on quoted or observable market prices at the statements of financial position date. Where such quoted or observable market prices are not available, the fair values of negotiable instruments of deposits are estimated using discounted cash flow techniques.

f. Bills and Acceptances Payable

The carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of their short-term nature.

g. Subordinated Loan

The carrying amount of the subordinated loan approximates fair value due to its variable interest rate.

h. Other Assets and Other Liabilities

The fair values of other assets and other liabilities are assumed to approximate their carrying values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments or the fact that they are derived by using the market rates at reporting date. Citibank Berhad l 2011 Annual Report 105

32.3 Fair value hierarchy

Comparative figures have not been presented for 31 December 2010 by virtue of paragraph 44G of FRS 7.

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

• Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). • Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

32.3 Fair value hierarchy (continued)

The following table shows a reconciliation from the beginning balances to the ending balances for fair value measurements in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

Group and Bank 2011 RM’000 Financial assets Balance at 1 January 14,148 Total lossed recognised in profit or loss: Attributable to losses relating to assets or liabilities that: - have not been realised (2,756)

Balance at 31 December 10,006

The unrealised gains/(losses) have been recognised in other operating income/expenses in profit or loss.

Changing one or more of the inputs to reasonable alternative assumptions would not change the value significantly for the financial assets in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Citibank Berhad l 2011 Annual Report 107
