On behalf of the Board J A Tothill Secretary 2 HSBC Bank Middle East Limited Annual Report and Accounts 2020 Report on the audit of the consolidated financial statements Our opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material aspects, the consolidated financial position of HSBC Bank Middle East Limited (the ‘Company’) and its subsidiaries (together the ‘group’) as at 31 December 2020, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’). What we have audited The group’s consolidated financial statements comprise: • the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020; • the consolidated income statement for the year then ended; • the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended; • the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended; • the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and • the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (‘ISAs’). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Independence We are independent of the group in accordance with the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (‘IESBA Code’) and the ethical requirements of the Dubai Financial Services Authority (the ‘DFSA’). We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. Our audit approach Overview Group scoping The scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of audit procedures performed were determined by our risk assessment, the financial significance of the components and other qualitative factors. Materiality Overall group materiality: USD 22.7 million, which represents 5% of the average of the absolute value profit or loss of the current year and the prior two financial years as a benchmark for calculating our overall group materiality. Key audit matters The key audit matters identified during the year are: • Expected credit losses - Impairment on loans and advances to customers • IT access management As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the consolidated financial statements. In particular, we considered where the directors made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. How we tailored our group audit scope We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the group operates. Given the geographically dispersed nature of the group’s operations in the Middle East and North Africa and the diversity of its banking activities, our approach was designed to cover each of the significant locations, being the United Arab Emirates (‘UAE’) and Qatar. We audited the operations of the group in the UAE and instructed a PwC member firm to perform work and issue an audit opinion to us in respect of the group’s operations in Qatar. Each location that was not individually significant was assessed for any significant risks or material balances and, where appropriate, we instructed PwC member firms in those locations to perform and report on specific procedures relating to matters which were judgmental in nature and/or material to the overall group. The work in these locations was carried out by applying standard benchmarks on materiality and reflected the size and complexity of the operations in those locations.

  • Using Replicated Ledger to Reduce Swift Costs
    WHITE PAPER USING REPLICATED LEDGER TO REDUCE SWIFT COSTS Abstract Nientibus et harum la aliquos que dunt harunte nat qui assimin ctincti nimoloratur? Quis sin enim expello rescitis aliberiosam, sumendu cienimil es ab in pelibus antiunt, eatur sit volorec tetur, occus asi suntiss imporer eperis dolupta que quid quatis mo volorit quas maio. Im acest, eos si beat. Ur? Nonseque reribus. Itatium re, nissi nullupietur audis sit adis con non corrum fugias eosae nones nonsenimus Itate esto moluptatur autatis sinctota dolent labo. Sum autem reriossum eos acerestectur rem que et haribus vel etur Introduction This paper proposes an approach to build a payment product that could be deployed across units of same bank or banks which have correspondent relationships, to reduce SWIFT message costs and to conserve liquidity by reducing need for Settlement and Nostro accounts. The paper proposes an outline of a product that implements a replicated, single wrapper around existing ledgers of such bank units to enable quick, irrevocable, tamper-proof approach to managing electronic payments between correspondent bank units. Existing ledgers of the bank would not be replaced or disturbed. Instead a wrapper application would be deployed that tracks specific entries in the ledger and replicates the changes to all members. This enables each member bank to see the same ledger at the same time and also be guaranteed of its accuracy. For this purpose, it is recommended the product be built using Blockchain for established and proven security. Such a replicated ledger would reduce active, recurring costs of using SWIFT network to pass payment messages. This will also reduce the much larger passive cost of holding funds in a non- remunerative settlement a/c with the correspondent bank.
