1. Message to Shareholders The global economy experienced a moderate growth in 2016. Factors influencing the banking industry in Taiwan included a slow growth in the overseas markets, a sluggish housing market, and a narrow interest rate spread which resulted in stagnant profits. Nevertheless, with support from our customers and efforts from our dedicated staff, we continued to be a leader in the amount of deposits and loans. Our net income in 2016 reached a record high of NT$12.524 billion with EPS of NT$1.48. Our non-performing loan (NPL) ratio was 0.37% and our coverage ratio increased to 321.27% in the same year.

Looking forward to 2017, the global economy is expected to recover gradually. However, factors including rising interest rates and policies of the Trump administration in the U.S., combined with a continued rise of worldwide trade protectionism, the future development of Brexit, a rebalancing of the Chinese economy, volatility in global oil prices and geopolitical issues together create downside risks for the global recovery. Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics (DGBAS), Executive Yuan forecasts an economic growth of 1.92% in 2017, which indicates a moderate economic growth. The government will proactively promote the New Southbound Policy and Innovative Industries Policy to facilitate the transformation and upgrade of our domestic economy. This will help domestic banks to boost momentum of the operational development and expand business opportunities for financial services.

Following the principles of sound operations and equally balancing quality and quantity, we will strengthen our credit asset quality, enhance capital utilization efficiency, improve wealth management services, and expand the scale of our asset management. Moreover, on the trend of financial technology development, we will provide digital financial services. Along with optimizing transaction systems, reinforcing internal control and legal compliance, and nurturing professional talents, we aim to exploit our competitive advantages and achieve profit target successfully.

Our major achievements in 2016 and operating strategies for 2017 are described briefly below:

2. Bank Profile 2.1 Date of Establishment Oct. 5, 1946

2.2 History Taiwan Cooperative Bank Co., Ltd.（hereafter referred to as “TCB” or “the Bank”）was established in 1946 through the reorganization of the “Taiwan Industry Bank”. Total equity capital in the amount of 25 million Old Taiwan Dollars was provided by the Taiwan Provincial Government along with cooperative groups, farmers’ associations, fishermen’s associations, and irrigation associations. The equity capital was divided into 250 thousand shares, with each one worth of NT$100. The government held 150 thousand shares and each group was allotted 10 thousand shares each. Over the past 70 years, the operating scale of the Bank has been constantly expanded thanks to the efforts of the entire staff, and at the end of 2016 its equity capital stood at NT$85.863 billion. TCB achieved corporate status under the provisions of Article 52 of the Banking Law in May 1985. It was reorganized as Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. on Jan. 1, 2001; went public in June 2003; was listed on the stock market on Nov. 17, 2004; underwent a Chinese name change in 2006; and merged with The Farmers Bank of China Co., Ltd. on May 1 of the same year. To integrate the Group’s resources to make full use of operating synergies and reinforce business development, TCB, the Co-Operative Asset Management Co., Ltd. and the Taiwan Cooperative Bills Finance Co., Ltd. jointly established Taiwan Cooperative Financial Holding Co., Ltd.（TCFHC）on Dec. 1, 2011 through a share swap. TCFHC thus became TCB’s sole (shareholding 100%) shareholder. To achieve the cross-industry condition for holding companies, TCB’s securities department was spun off as the Taiwan Cooperative Securities Co., Ltd. on Dec. 2, 2011. For the effective management of the Group’s resources, the Bank transferred its shares in the BNP Paribas Cardif TCB Life Insurance Co., Ltd. and BNP Paribas TCB Asset Management Co., Ltd. (renamed Taiwan Cooperative Securities Investment Trust Co., Ltd.) to TCFHC on Apr. 3, 2012, making the two companies as subsidiaries of TCFHC. To reinforce the protection of consumers’ rights and provide superior insurance services, the Bank merged with Cooperative Insurance Brokers Co., Ltd. on Jun. 24, 2016, with the Bank as the surviving company and established the Insurance Agent Department. TCB’s subsidiary currently includes the United Taiwan Bank S.A. As of Dec. 31, 2016, the Bank boasts a total of 288 domestic and overseas branches (including the Department of Business, Offshore Banking Branch, Manila Offshore Banking Branch, Los Angeles Branch, Seattle Branch, New York Branch, Hong Kong Branch, Sydney Branch, Suzhou Branch, Suzhou New District Sub-Branch, Tianjin Branch, Fuzhou Branch, Beijing Representative Office, Phnom Pench Branch, Tuek Thla Sub-Branch, Pur Senchey Sub-Branch, Siem Reap Sub-Branch, and Yangon Representative Office), creating the most extensive network of branches among all Taiwan banks and positioning itself as a market leader in share of deposits and loans. According to the list of the world’s top 1,000 banks by asset size, published in the July 2016 issue of The Banker magazine, TCB ranked 177th in the world and 4th in Taiwan. In the global ranking of the top 500 banking brands, published in February 2017, TCB ranked 288th in the world.

5.5 Consolidated Financial Statements

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and the Stockholders Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. (the Bank) and its subsidiary (collectively, the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks, Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms, International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretation of IFRS and Interpretations of IAS endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary for the year ended December 31, 2016. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 were as follows:

Impairment Assessment on Discounts and Loans

The discounts and loans of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2016 was $1,990,441,827 thousand, consisting 63% of the total assets. Therefore, the assessment on the impairment loss of discounts and loans may have significant impacts on the consolidated financial statements. The assessment on discounts and loans performed by the Company’s management is based on whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. The amount of impairment loss is the difference between the book value and the estimated future cash flows of discounts and loans (with consideration to the collaterals and guarantees). In addition, the amount of provisions of impairment loss made should also be in accordance with the FSC guidelines. Impairment assessment on discounts and loans was identified as a key audit matter due to the critical judgements and estimations involved. For the accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements. For discounts and loans, refer 26 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank to Note 11.

With respect to the critical judgements, estimations, and assumptions used, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Understand and test the internal control of impairment assessment on discounts and loans performed by the Company. 2. Sample loans that are individually assessed for impairment loss to evaluate the reasonableness of estimated future cash flow, including the assumptions, discount rates and the value of collaterals. 3. Test the assumption pertaining to the model, data, and calculation for loans that are assessed collectively for impairment loss, including the historical data adopted, the classification of similar credit risk, recovery rate, and the impairment rate. 4. Test the classification of credit assets of the Company to evaluate whether the classification of credit assets and provisions of impairment loss are in accordance with the FSC guidelines by considering the length of overdue of the loans and the value of collaterals.

Assessment on Post-employment Benefits

The present value of defined benefit obligation was calculated based on the actuarial results with application of various assumptions. Assessment on post-employment benefits was identified as a key audit matter due to the critical judgements and estimations involved. For accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements; for post-employment benefits, refer to Notes 26 and 27.

With respect to the actuarial report of defined benefit obligation, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Evaluate the actuary on the basis of qualification, competency, and objectivity. 2. Evaluate the reasonableness of the actuarial assumptions and method applied, including discount rates, expected rates of future salary increase and expected rate of return on plan asset. 3. Obtain and evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the information used by the actuary.

Assessment on Retired Employees’ Preferential Deposit Benefits

The present value of retired employees’ preferential deposit obligation was calculated based on the actuarial results with application of various assumptions. Assessment on the retired employees’ preferential deposit benefits was identified as a key audit matter due to the application of critical judgements and estimations. For accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements; for the employees’ preferential deposit benefits, refer to Notes 26 and 27.

With respect to the actuarial report of retired employees’ preferential deposit obligation, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Evaluate the actuary on the basis of qualification, competency, and objectivity. 2. Evaluate the reasonableness of the actuarial assumptions and method applied, including discount rates, return on deposit, account balance decrease rate per year, and rate of probability of change in the preferential deposit system. 3. Obtain and evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the information used by the actuary.

Impairment Assessment on Goodwill

When the management of the Company determines whether goodwill is impaired, estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated is required. The calculation of value in use requires management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating units and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Impairment assessment on goodwill was identified as a key audit matter due to the critical judgements and estimations involved. For accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements; for impairment assessment on goodwill, refer to Note 18. Financial Information 27

With respect to the report of impairment assessment on goodwill and the report of discount rate used in assessment, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Evaluate the external expert on the basis of qualification, competency, and objectivity. 2. Evaluate the reasonableness of model and assumptions used by the external expert. 3. Obtain and evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the information used by the external expert. 4. Evaluate the reasonableness of the expected future cash flows arising from the cash-generating units allocated to goodwill.

Other Matters

Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. has prepared the parent company only financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. We have an unqualified audit opinion on the parent company only financial statements.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks, Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms, International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretation of IFRS and Interpretations of IAS endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing and using of the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary’s internal control. 3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

28 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary to cease to continue as a going concern. 5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence of the consolidated financial information of the components of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to guide, monitor and implement the audit engagement, and express an opinion based on our audits of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. and its subsidiary.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Li-Chi Chen and Cheng-Hung Kuo.

TAIWAN COOPERATIVE BANK, LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016 AND 2015 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. (the Bank) was officially established on October 5, 1946 to regulate the supply of and demand for funds for cooperative organizations by accepting their surplus funds as deposits and extending working funds to them. On February 10, 2006, the Bank changed its Chinese name upon approval by the Ministry of Economic Affairs. However, the Bank’s English name remains unchanged. The Bank became a legal entity in 1985 in accordance with the Banking Law. At the start of 2001, the Bank was converted into a corporate entity engaged in (a) all commercial banking operations allowed under the Banking Law; (b) international banking operations; (c) overseas branch operations as authorized by the respective foreign governments; and (d) other operations as authorized by the central authority-in-charge.

The Bank’s shares have been listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange since November 17, 2004.

The Bank merged with the Farmers Bank of China (FBC) on May 1, 2006, with the Bank as the survivor entity.

On June 24, 2011, the Bank’s stockholders approved the establishment of Taiwan Cooperative Financial Holding Company, Ltd. (TCFHC) by swapping the Bank’s shares with those Co-operative Asset Management Co., Ltd. (CAM) and Taiwan Cooperative Bills Finance Corporation Ltd. (TCBF) in accordance with the “Financial Holding Company Act” and other regulations. The boards of directors of the Bank, CAM and TCBF designated December 1, 2011 as the effective date of the share swap. After the shares transfer, the Bank became a 100% subsidiary of TCFHC. Also on December 1, 2011, the trading of the Bank’s stock on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TSE) was stopped, and TCFHC’s stock started to be traded on the TSE.

On December 2, 2011, the Bank reduced its capital by NT$3 billion and spun off its Security Department to incorporate Taiwan Cooperative Securities Corp. (TCS), which became a 100% subsidiary of TCFHC.

The Bank has its Head Office in Taipei. It had a Business, International Banking, Finance, Credit Card, Trust and Insurance Agent Departments as well as 270 domestic branches, an offshore banking unit (OBU), 10 overseas branches and 2 representative office as of December 31, 2016.

The operations of the Bank’s Trust Department are (1) planning, managing and operating the trust business and (2) custodianship of nondiscretionary trust fund in domestic and overseas securities and mutual funds. These operations are regulated under the Banking Law and Trust Law of the Republic of China (ROC).

The Bank set up the United Taiwan Bank S.A. (UTB) in Belgium through raising funds with Bank of Taiwan, Land Bank of Taiwan and Taiwan Business Bank and acquired 70% of the shares in UTB. On October 9, 2009, the Bank bought shares of UTB held by Taiwan Business Bank for $127,279 thousand. Thus, the Bank’s holdings in UTB increased to 80%. In July 2010, the Bank subscribed for all the new shares issued by UTB for EUR20,000 thousand ($785,770 thousand). Thus, the Bank’s holdings in UTB increased to 90.02%. UTB started its operation, mainly the general deposits and loans business, on December 23, 1992 and it is a subsidiary of the Bank.

In order to integrate resources and enhance operating effectiveness, the board of directors of the Bank and Cooperative Insurance Brokers Co., Ltd. (CIB) decided to merge the Bank and CIB on April 25, 2016. The effective date of the merger was June 24, 2016. In this merger, the Bank was the surviving entity.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank and its subsidiaries (the Company) had 8,273 and 8,195 employees, respectively.

The operating units of the Company maintain their accounts in their respective functional currencies. The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars.

Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates. Note 2: The amendment to IFRS 12 is retrospectively applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017; the amendment to IAS 28 is retrospectively applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

The initial application of the above New IFRSs, whenever applied, would not have any material impact on the Company’s accounting policies, except for the following:

1) IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”

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.

For the Company’s debt instruments that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, their classification and measurement are as follows:

a) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, the financial assets are measured at amortized cost and are assessed for impairment continuously with impairment loss recognized in profit or loss, if any. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method.

b) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both the collecting of contractual cash flows and the selling of financial assets, the financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and are assessed for impairment. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method, and other gain or loss shall be recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses. When the debt instruments are derecognized or reclassified, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss.

36 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

Except for above, all other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss. However, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognized in profit or loss. No subsequent impairment assessment is required, and the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income cannot be reclassified from equity to profit or loss.

The impairment of financial assets

IFRS 9 requires that impairment loss on financial assets is recognized by using the “Expected Credit Losses Model”. The credit loss allowance is required for financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets mandatorily measured at FVTOCI, lease receivables, contract assets arising from IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, certain written loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. A loss allowance for the 12-month expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition. A loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and is not low. However, a loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction.

For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Company takes into account the expected credit losses on initial recognition in calculating the credit-adjusted effective interest rate. Subsequently, any changes in expected losses are recognized as a loss allowance with a corresponding gain or loss recognized in profit or loss.

Transition

Financial instruments that have been derecognized prior to the effective date of IFRS 9 cannot be reversed to apply IFRS 9 when it becomes effective. Under IFRS 9, the requirements for classification, measurement and impairment of financial assets are applied retrospectively with the difference between the previous carrying amount and the carrying amount at the date of initial application recognized in the current period and restatement of prior periods is not required.

2) IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and related amendments

IFRS 15 establishes principles for recognizing revenue that apply to all contracts with customers, and will supersede IAS 18 “Revenue”, IAS 11 “Construction Contracts” and a number of revenue-related interpretations.

When applying IFRS 15, the Company shall recognize revenue by applying the following steps:

 Identify the contract with the customer;  Identify the performance obligations in the contract;  Determine the transaction price;  Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and  Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

When IFRS 15 and related amendment are effective, the Company may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this Standard recognized at the date of initial application.

3) IFRS 16 “Leases”

IFRS 16 sets out the accounting standards for leases that will supersede IAS 17 and a number of related interpretations.

Under IFRS 16, if the Company is a lessee, it shall recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the consolidated balance sheets except for low-value and short-term leases. The Company may elect to apply the accounting method similar to the accounting for operating lease under IAS 17 to the low-value and short-term leases. On the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the Company should present the depreciation expense charged on the right-of-use asset separately from interest expense accrued on the lease liability; interest is computed by using effective interest method. On the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash payments for the principal portion of the lease liability are classified within financing activities; cash payments for interest portion are classified within operating activities.

The application of IFRS 16 is not expected to have a material impact on the accounting of the Company as lessor.

Financial Information 37

When IFRS 16 becomes effective, the Company may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the initial application of this Standard recognized at the date of initial application.

4) Amendments to IAS 40 “Transfers of Investment Property”

The amendments clarify that the Company should transfer to, or from, investment property when, and only when, the property meets, or ceases to meet, the definition of investment property and there is evidence of the change in use. In isolation, a change in management’s intentions for the use of a property does not provide evidence of a change in use. The amendments also clarify that the evidence of the change in use is not limited to those illustrated in IAS 40.

The Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively and reclassify the property as required to reflect the conditions that exist at the date of initial application. The Company is also required to disclose the reclassified amounts and such amounts should be included in the reconciliation of the carrying amount of investment property. Alternatively, the Company may elect to apply the amendments retrospectively if, and only if, that is possible without the use of hindsight.

Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Company is continuously assessing the possible impact that the application of other standards and interpretations will have on the Company’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is completed.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of Compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks, Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms, and IFRSs as endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC.

Basis of Preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments that are measured at fair value.

The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value measurement inputs are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

a. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

b. Level 2 inputs are 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); and

c. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Bank and the entities controlled by the Bank (United Taiwan Bank S.A. and Cooperative Insurance Brokers Co., Ltd.).

The accounting policies of the Bank and its subsidiaries are consistent.

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated for consolidation purposes. The accompanying consolidated financial statements also include accounts of the Bank’s Head Office, OBU, and all branches. All interoffice account balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

For more information on the consolidated entities, please see Table 1 (attached).

Foreign-currency Transactions

The Bank records foreign-currency transactions in the respective currencies in which these are denominated. Every month-end, foreign currency income and expenses are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the prevailing exchange rates. At month-end, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported using the prevailing exchange rates, and exchange differences are 38 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank recognized in profit or loss. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities measured at fair value are translated using the prevailing exchange rates at month-end. Translation differences on nonmonetary assets and liabilities measured at fair value are recognized in profit or loss, except for translation difference arising from nonmonetary items of which the change in fair values is recognized in other comprehensive income, in which case, the translation differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities that are classified as carried at cost are recognized at the exchange rate on the transaction date.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, foreign operations’ financial statements are translated at the following rates: Assets and liabilities - the prevailing exchange rates on the balance sheet date; and income and expenses - at the average exchange rate for the year. Translation difference net of income tax is recorded as “other comprehensive income” and accumulated in equity, FSC and is attributed to the owner of the Company and non-controlling interests.

Classification of Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities

Since the operating cycle in the banking industry cannot be reasonably identified, accounts included in the consolidated financial statements are not classified as current or noncurrent. Nevertheless, these accounts are properly categorized in accordance with the nature of each account and sequenced by liquidity.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

In the balance sheet, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash and cash equivalents defined in the consolidated balance sheet, due from the Central Bank and call loans to other banks, call loans to securities firms securities purchased under resell agreements and call loans to securities firms that correspond to the definition of cash and cash equivalents in IAS 7 “Cash Flow Statements,” as endorsed by the FSC.

Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Financial assets

All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. a. Measurement category

Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets, held-to-maturity financial assets and loans and receivables. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

1) Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets are classified as at FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or designated as at FVTPL.

A financial asset is classified as designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

 Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

 The financial asset forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Company’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or Financial Information 39

 The contract contains one or more embedded derivatives so that the entire hybrid (combined) contract can be designated as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial assets at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 38.

2) Available-for-sale (AFS) financial assets

AFS financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated as AFS or are not classified as (a) loans and receivables, (b) held-to-maturity financial assets, or (c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. AFS financial assets are stated at fair value at each balance sheet date. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 38.

Changes in the carrying amount of AFS monetary financial assets relating to changes in foreign currency rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method and dividends on AFS equity investments are recognized in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of AFS financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income and will be reclassified to profit or loss when the investment is disposed or is determined to be impaired.

Cash dividends on AFS equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established. Stock dividends are recorded as an increase in the number of shares held and do not affect investment income. The cost per share is recalculated on the basis of the new number of investee’s shares held.

AFS financial assets that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and have a fair value that cannot be reliably measured and derivatives that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity investments are measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at the balance sheet date and are recognized in a separate line item as financial assets carried at cost. These financial assets are measured at fair values if the fair values can be reliably measured subsequently. The difference between carrying amount and fair value is recognized in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. When an AFS financial asset is considered impaired, the losses are recognized to profit or loss.

3) Held-to-maturity financial assets

Held-to-maturity financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity dates that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity.

After initial recognition, held-to-maturity financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment.

4) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including cash and cash equivalents, due from the Central Bank and call loans to other banks, receivables, debt instruments with no active markets) are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment.

b. Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. Objective evidence of impairment could include:

 Significant financial difficulty of the asset issuer and debtor;  The financial assets becoming overdue;  Probability that the debtor will enter into bankruptcy or undergo financial reorganization.

Amortized cost of the presentation of financial assets (loans and receivables) that are individually assessed had no objective evidence of impairment are further assessed collectively for impairment. Objective evidence of impairment of a portfolio of receivables could include the Company’s past difficulty in collecting payments and an increase in the number of delayed payments, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on financial assets.

40 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows with consideration to the collaterals and guarantees, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate.

For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

For AFS equity instruments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.

When an AFS financial asset is considered impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

For AFS equity instruments, impairment losses previously recognized in profit or loss can not be reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income. For AFS debt instruments, impairment losses are subsequently reversed through profit or loss if an increase in the fair value of the investment can be objectively related to an event occurring after the recognition of the impairment loss.

For financial assets that are carried at cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. This impairment loss can not be reversed in subsequent periods.

Impairment loss on financial asset is recognized by reducing its carrying amount through the use of an allowance account. When financial assets are considered uncollectable, they are written off against the allowance account. Recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit and loss.

Under FSC guidelines, the Bank should classify credit assets as sound credit assets or unsound credit assets, with the unsound assets further categorized as special mention, substandard, with collectability highly doubtful and uncollectable, on the basis of the customers’ financial position, valuation of collaterals and the length of time the principal repayments or interest payments have become overdue.

The Bank made 100%, 50%, 10%, 2% and 1% provisions for credits deemed uncollectable, with collectability highly doubtful, substandard, special mention and sound credit assets (excluding assets that represent claims against an ROC government agency), respectively, as minimum provisions. In addition, The Bank was required to make provisions of at least 1.5% each for the sound credit assets on loans granted to Mainland China clients (including short-term trading financing) and for mortgage loans granted for housing acquisition, renovation and construction before December 31, 2015 and 2016, respectively.

Credits deemed uncollectable may be written off if the write-off is approved by the board of directors. c. Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset only the contractual rights to cash flow from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognize the financial asset and also recognizes a collateralized borrowing for the proceeds received.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amounts and the sum of the consideration received, receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognized in profit or loss.

Equity instruments

The Company classifies the debt and equity instruments issued either as financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreements and the definitions of a financial liability or an equity instrument. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Financial Information 41

Repurchase of the Bank’s own equity instruments is recognized and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Bank’s own equity instruments.

Financial liabilities

a. Subsequent measurement

Except for the cases stated below, all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method:

1) Financial liabilities at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either held for trading or designated as at FVTPL.

A financial liability is classified as designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:

 Such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise; or

 The financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Company’s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the grouping is provided internally on that basis; or

 The contract contains one or more embedded derivatives so that the entire combined contract (asset or liability) can be designated as at fair value through profit or loss.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising from remeasurement recognized in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability. For a financial liability designated as at fair value through profit or loss, the amount of changes in fair value attributable to changes in the credit risk of the liability is presented in other comprehensive income, and it will not be subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. The gain or loss accumulated in other comprehensive income will be transferred to retained earnings when the financial liabilities are derecognized. If this accounting treatment related to credit risk would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch, all changes in fair value of the liability are presented in profit or loss. Fair value is determined in the manner described in Note 38.

2) Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are not designated as at FVTPL and are subsequently measured at the higher of (a) the amount of the obligation under the contract, as determined in accordance with IAS 37 “Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets”; or (b) the amount initially recognized less, where appropriate, cumulative amortization recognized in accordance with revenue recognition policies.

b. Derecognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled, or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid (includes transfer of non-cash assets and liabilities assumed) is recognized in profit or loss.

Derivatives

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to fair value at the balance sheet date. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately. If the fair value of a derivative is a positive number, the derivative is carried as a financial asset and if the fair value is a negative number, the derivative is carried as a financial liability.

Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the contracts are not measured at FVTPL.

Overdue Loans

Loans and other credits (including accrued interest) that are overdue for at least six months are classified as overdue loans in accordance with the guideline issued by the FSC. 42 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

Overdue loans (except other credits) are classified as discounts and loans, and the remaining are classified as other financial assets.

Securities Purchased/Sold Under Resell/Repurchase Agreements

Securities purchased under resell agreements and securities sold under repurchase agreements are generally treated as collateralized financing transactions. Interest earned on resell agreements or interest incurred on repurchase agreements is recognized as interest revenue or interest expense over the life of each agreement.

Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the Company and other parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

Under the equity method, investment in an associate or a joint ventures is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. The Company also recognizes the changes in the Company’s share of equity of associates or joint ventures.

When the Company subscribes for additional new shares of the associate or joint ventures at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Company’s proportionate interest in the associate or joint ventures. The Company records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus. If the Company’s ownership interest is reduced due to the additional subscription of the new shares of the associate or joint ventures, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate or joint ventures is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required if the investee had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for by the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.

When the Company’s share of losses of an associate or a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in that associate or joint ventures, which includes any carrying amount of the investment accounted for by the equity method and long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company’s net investment in the associate or joint ventures, the Company discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. Additional losses and liabilities are recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal obligations, or constructive obligations, or made payments on behalf of that associate or joint venture.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate or a joint venture recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

The entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.

The Company discontinues the use of the equity method from the date on which its investment ceases to be an associate and a joint venture. Any retained investment is measured at fair value at that date and the fair value is regarded as its fair value on initial recognition as a financial asset. The difference between the previous carrying amount of the associate and the joint venture attributable to the retained interest and its fair value is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal of the associate and the joint venture. The Company accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate and the joint venture on the same basis as would be required if that associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. If an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture or an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Company continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.

When the Company transacts with its associate or joint ventures, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate or joint ventures are recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate or joint ventures that are not related to the Company.

Financial Information 43

Investment Properties

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties also include land held for a currently undetermined future use.

Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method.

Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property is calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is included in profit or loss in the year which the property is derecognized.

Properties and Equipment

Properties and equipment are initially recognized at cost and subsequently measured at costs less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment.

Land for self-use is not depreciated. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

Any gain or loss recognized on the disposal or retirement of an item of property and equipment is the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is included in profit or loss in the period which the asset is derecognized.

Leasing

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Company as a lessor

Rental income from operating leases is recognized in revenues over the lease periods on a straight-line basis. Contingent rents arising under operating leases are recognized as income in the year in which they are incurred.

Lease incentives offered in the operating lease are recognized as an asset. The aggregate cost of incentives is recognized as a reduction of rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company as a lessee

Lease payments under an operating lease are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease period. Under operating lease, contingent rentals are recognized as expenses at current year.

Lease incentives received for operating leases are recognized under liabilities. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognized as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

When the Company sales and leasebacks a property, the excess of sales proceeds over the carrying amount resulted from the sale of the property is deferred and amortized over the lease term regardless of operating lease or finance lease. For indefinite lease term, the excess is amortized over 10 years.

Goodwill

Goodwill (part of intangible assets) from business combination is recorded at acquisition cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Company’s cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units (referred to as cash-generating units (CGU)) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

In testing assets for impairment, the Company compares the carrying amounts of operating segments (CGUs with allocated goodwill) to their recoverable amounts on a yearly basis (or when impairment indicators exist). CGUs with allocated goodwill arise from the current year should be tested for impairment before the end of the year. When the recoverable amount of CGUs is below the carrying amount, an impairment loss should be recognized to reduce first the carrying amount of goodwill of the CGU and then the carrying amounts of other assets of the CGU proportionately. Any impairment loss should be directly recognized as loss in the current year, and subsequent reversal of impairment loss is not allowed.

44 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the amount attributable to goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.

Intangible Assets Other Than Goodwill

Separate acquisition

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. At year-end, the Company examines its estimates of the useful lives, residual values and amortization method of the assets, and any changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively. Unless the Company expects to dispose of an intangible asset before the end of its useful life, the residual value of an intangible asset with limited useful life is estimated to be zero. The effect of any changes in estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.

Acquisition as part of a business combination

Intangible asset acquired through business combination is measured at its fair value on the acquisition date, and is recognized separately from goodwill. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured on the same basis as intangible assets that are acquired separately.

Derecognition

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognized in profit or loss when the assets is derecognized.

Impairment of Tangible and Intangible Assets Other Than Goodwill

At the balance sheet date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets (except goodwill) for any indication of impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. Corporate assets are allocated to the individual cash-generating units or a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less selling costs or value in use.

If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. If asset impairment loss reverses, the increase in the carrying amount resulting from reversal is credited to earnings. However, loss reversal should not be more than the carrying amount (net of depreciation or amortization) had the impairment loss not been recognized.

Foreclosed Collaterals

Foreclosed collaterals (part of other assets) are recorded at the fair value on recognition and recorded at the lower of cost or net fair value as of the balance sheet dates. Net fair value falling below book value indicates impairment, and impairment loss should be recognized. If the net fair value recovers, the recovery of impairment loss is recognized in gains. For foreclosed collaterals that should have been disposed of in the statutory term, unless the disposal period is prolonged, additional provision for losses should be made and impairment loss should be recognized, as required under a FSC directive.

Provisions

Provisions are the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties on the obligation. A provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.

Recognition of Revenue

Interest revenue on loans is recorded on an accrual basis. Under the guidance of the FSC, no interest revenue is recognized on loans that are classified as overdue loans. The interest revenue on these loans is recognized upon collection of the loans and credits.

Service fees are recognized when a major part of the earnings process is completed and cash is collected.

Financial Information 45

Dividend income from investments is recognized when the stockholder’s right to receive payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably).

Service that results in award credits for customers, under the Company’s award scheme, is accounted for as multiple element revenue transactions and the fair value of the consideration received or receivable is allocated between the service rendered and the award credits granted. The consideration allocated to the award credits is measured by reference to their fair value. Such consideration is not recognized as revenue at the time of the initial sale transaction but is deferred and recognized as revenue when the award credits are redeemed and the Company’s obligations have been fulfilled.

Employee Benefits

Short-term employee benefits

Short-term and non-discounted employee benefits are recognized as expenses in the current year as services are rendered.

Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.

Defined benefit costs (including service cost, net interest and remeasurement) under the defined benefit retirement benefit plans are determined using the projected unit credit method. Service cost and net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) are recognized as employee benefits expense in the period they occur. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.

Net defined benefit liability (asset) represents the actual deficit (surplus) in the Company’s defined benefit plan. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.

Preferential interest deposits for employees

The Bank provides preferential interest deposits to current and retired employees, and these deposits, including payments of the preferential interest deposits, are within certain amounts. The preferential rates for employees’ deposits in excess of market rate should be treated as employee benefits.

Under the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks, the Bank should follow the requirement of IAS 19 “Employee Benefits” endorsed by FSC to determine the excess interest on the preferential interest deposits of retired employees by applying an actuarial valuation method when the employees retire. The actuarial assumptions should be in accordance with the requirements set by the authorities.

Termination benefits

A liability for a termination benefit is recognized at the earlier of when the Company can no longer withdraw the offer of the termination benefit and when the Company recognizes any related restructuring costs.

Share-based Payment

The Company’s employees subscribed for the reserved shares of Taiwan Cooperative Financial Holding Company, Ltd. (TCFHC) in accordance with the Financial Holding Company Act, and the Company recognized the fair value of the stock options under salary expenses and under capital surplus for share-based payment on the grant date, i.e., the date when the Company and its employees made an agreement for the employees to subscribe for TCFHC’s shares.

Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the stockholders approve to retain the earnings.

Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision. 46 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences and unused loss carryforwards to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which these deductible temporary differences can be used. If the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit, the resulting deferred tax asset or liability is not recognized. In addition, a deferred tax liability is not recognized on taxable temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to use the benefits of the temporary differences and these differences are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed each balance sheet date and recognized to the to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences based on the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Where current tax or deferred taxes arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

TCFHC and its subsidiaries elected to file consolidated tax returns for periods starting in 2012. However, since the Company applied the accounting treatment mentioned in the preceding paragraph to income tax, any distribution of cash payments and receipts among the consolidated group members is recorded as current tax assets or current tax liabilities.

Business Combination

Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. Acquisition-related costs are generally recognized as expense as incurred.

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value.

Business combination involving entities under common control is not accounted for by acquisition method but accounted for at the carrying amounts of the entities. Prior period comparative information in the financial statements is restated as if a business combination involving entities under common control had already occurred in that period.

Financial Information 47

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 4, the Company’s management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Unless stated in other notes, the following are the critical judgments, assumptions and estimation uncertainty estimations that the Company’s management has made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:

a. Impairment losses on loans

The Company monthly assesses loans collectively. When determining whether an impairment loss should be recognized, the Company mainly seeks for observable evidence that indicates impairment. Objective evidence of impairment of a portfolio of loans and receivables could include the Company’s past difficulty in collecting payments and an increase in the number of delayed payments, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on loans and receivables. The management uses past loss experience on assets that have similar credit risk characteristics to estimate the expected future cash flows. The Company reviews the methods and assumptions of cash flow estimation regularly to eliminate the difference between expected and actual loss.

b. Fair values of financial instruments

Fair values of financial instruments in an inactive market or with no quoted market prices are determined by valuation techniques. Under these circumstances, fair values are derived from observable market data of other similar financial assets. When there are no observable inputs in the market, the fair values of financial instruments are estimated by making appropriate assumptions. The Company applies appropriate valuation models to determine the fair values of financial instruments subjective to valuation techniques. All models are fine-tuned to ensure the valuation results fairly reflect actual market information and prices. The Company’s management believes that the chosen valuation techniques and assumptions used are appropriate in determining the fair value of financial instruments.

For the fair value determination of financial instruments, refer to Note 38 to the consolidated financial statements.

c. Income tax

The Company is required to make substantive estimates when calculating income tax. The final tax assessment is based on considerable transactions and calculations. When the final tax amount differs from the amount on original recognition, the difference affects the recognition of both current and deferred income tax. The realizability of deferred tax assets mainly depends on whether sufficient future profits or taxable temporary differences will be available. In cases where the actual future profits generated are less than expected, a material reversal of deferred tax assets may arise, which would be recognized in profit or loss for the period in which such a reversal takes place.

d. Employment benefits

The calculation of the present value of post-employment benefits and preferential rates for retired employees’ deposits is based on the actuarial result under several assumptions. Any change in these assumptions may affect the carrying amount of post-employment benefits and preferential rates interest deposits plan for retired employees.

One of the estimates used for determining the net pension costs (revenues) is discount rate. The Company determines appropriate discount rates at the end of each year and estimates the present values of future cash outflows resulting from fulfilling the post-employment obligation by the discount rates. To better determine the discount rates, the Company takes into account the interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds or government bonds, with currencies the same as those of post-employment benefit payments, and with durations that match those of the corresponding pension liabilities.

48 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

Other significant assumptions for post-employment obligation are subject to current market condition. Significant assumptions for the obligation of preferential interest deposits for retired employee are determined by the authorities.

e. Impairment of goodwill

Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.

f. Impairment assessment on available-for-sale equity investment

Objective evidences of the impairment of an available-for-sale equity investment include the fair value of that investment falling significantly or constantly below the cost. Subjective judgments are required when assessing the impairment. The Company’s management considers past market fluctuation, historical prices of the investment and other factors that affect the performance of the industries to which the investees belong to make the subjective judgments.

g. The valuation of provisions on financial guarantee contracts

Except for the minimum standards under certain laws, the Company’s main basis for deciding the amounts of provisions is whether there is any observable evidence that the Company has payment obligations to compensate the losses of guarantee holders. The Company regularly reviews the economic situation in terms of defaults on debt repayments to reduce the difference between the estimated and the actual amounts of loss.

Through the defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law, the Company is exposed to the following risks:

1) Investment risk: The plan assets are invested in domestic/and foreign/equity and debt securities, bank deposits, etc. The investment is conducted at the discretion of the Bureau or under the mandated management. However, in accordance with relevant regulations, the return generated by plan assets should not be below the interest rate for a 2-year time deposit with local banks.

2) Interest risk: A decrease in the government bond interest rate will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.

3) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the present value of the defined benefit obligation.

The actuarial valuations of the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out by qualified actuaries. The significant assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations were as follows: December 31 2016 2015

Discount rate(s) 1.30% 1.35% Expected rate(s) of salary increase 2.00% 2.00% Expected rate(s) of return on plan asset 1.30% 1.35%

Had there been a possible reasonable change in each of the significant actuarial assumptions and all other assumptions remained constant, the present value of the defined benefit obligation would have increased (decreased) as follows: December 31 2016 2015 Discount rate(s) 0.25% increase $ (317,116) $ (315,821) 0.25% decrease $ 329,843 $ 328,924 Expected rate(s) of salary increase 0.25% increase $ 313,518 $ 313,485 0.25% decrease $ (303,191) $ (302,769) Financial Information 61

The sensitivity analysis presented above might not have been representative of the actual change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation as it was unlikely that the changes in assumptions would have occurred independently of each other because some of the assumptions might have correlated. December 31 2016 2015 The expected contributions to the plan for the next year $ 927,134 $ 2,871,100

The average duration of the defined benefit obligation 10.53 years 11 years

c. Employees’ preferential deposit plan

The Bank’s payment obligations on fixed-amount preferential interest deposits for retired employees and current employees after retirement are in compliance with the Bank’s internal rules. Under the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks, the Bank should determine the excess interest from the preferential interest deposits of employees by applying an actuarial valuation method when the employees retire.

The amounts included in the balance sheet arising from the Company’s obligation in the employees’ preferential interest deposits plan were as follows: December 31 2016 2015

Present value of retired employees’ preferential interest deposits $ 3,970,127 $ 4,009,952 obligation (part of provisions)

The changes in present value of retired employees’ preferential interest deposits obligation were as follows: For the Year Ended December 31 2016 2015

Present value of retired employees’ preferential interest deposits obligation, December 31 $ 3,970,127 $ 4,009,952

Amounts recognized in profit or loss in employee preferential deposit plans for retired employees in the statement of comprehensive income were as follows: For the Year Ended December 31 2016 2015

Interest expense $ 152,392 $ 152,379 Actuarial losses 624,670 760,838

Excessive interest of retired employees’ preferential interest deposits $ 777,062 $ 913,217

Under Order No. 10110000850 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, effective March 15, 2012, the actuarial assumptions for calculating the expense for the retired employees’ preferential interest deposit benefit are as follows:

December 31 2016 2015

Discount rate 4.00% 4.00% Return on deposit 2.00% 2.00% Account balance decrease rate per year 1.00% 1.00% Rate of probability of change in the preferential deposit system 50.00% 50.00%

Had there been a possible reasonable change in each of the significant actuarial assumptions and all other assumptions remained constant, the present value of the retired employees’ preferential interest deposit benefit obligation would have increased (decreased) as follows:

Any capital surplus transferred to common stock should be within a certain percentage prescribed by law.

c. Special reserve

Under FSC guidelines, the Bank reclassified to special reserve $165,255 thousand, the sum of trading loss reserve and reserve for loss on branch of purchase commitments, which were in place until December 31, 2010.

As of December 31, 2016, the special reserve from equity investments under the equity method was $14,944 thousand.

On the first-time adoption of IFRSs, the Bank should appropriate to a special reserve of an amount that was the same as these of unrealized revaluation increment and cumulative translation differences (gains) transferred to retained earnings as a result of the Bank’s use of exemptions under IFRS 1. However, at the date of transitions to IFRSs, if the increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments is not enough for this appropriation, only the increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments will be appropriated to special reserve. The special reserve appropriated as above may be reversed in proportion to the usage, disposal or reclassification of the related assets and thereafter distributed. The special reserve appropriated on the first-time adoption of IFRSs may be used to offset deficits in subsequent years. No appropriation of earnings shall be made until any shortage of the aforementioned special reserve is appropriated in subsequent years if the Bank has earnings and the original need to appropriate a special reserve is not eliminated.

The increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments was not enough for this appropriation; therefore, the Bank appropriated to the special reserve an amount of $1,132,019 thousand on January 1, 2013, the increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments on transitions to IFRSs.

The special reserve should be appropriated from the prior years’ unappropriated earnings to the extent of the debit balance accumulated from prior years and such special reserve should not be appropriated. The balance of the special reserve is adjusted to reflect any changes in the debit balance of the related accounts. If there is difference between appropriation of special reserve and net amount of deduction in other stockholder’s equity, the Company should appropriate on additional amount of special reserve in the first-time adoption of IFRSs. Afterwards, if there is any reversal in of the deduction in other stockholder’s equity, the Company is allowed to appropriating retained earnings from the reversal amount.

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

5) For TCB’s income tax returns (ITRs) from 2006 to 2011, the Taipei National Tax Administration (TNTA) claimed that the appraisal of goodwill was not reasonable and that there were no unrecognized losses on the sale of nonperforming loans in TCB’s records on the date of the merger with the Farmers Bank of China (FBC). Thus, TNTA denied the expenses for the goodwill amortization of $3,170,005 thousand and the deferred loss amortization of $3,105,522 thousand on the sale of nonperforming loans. TCB disagreed with the TNTA’s decision and initiated administrative litigations. On December 30, 2014, TNTA allowed the partial amortization of goodwill expenses and of the losses on the sales of nonperforming loans in the tax returns of 2006 to 2011 after the negotiation with TCB. TCB recognized related income tax expenses of $228,990 thousand in 2014.

b. The valuation techniques and assumptions the Company uses for determining fair values are as follows:

The fair values of financial instruments traded on active markets are based on quoted market prices. However, in many instances where there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments, fair values are based on estimates using other financial data and appropriate valuation methodologies. The financial data obtained by the Company for making estimations and assumptions for financial instrument valuation is consistent with those used by other market participants to price financial instruments. Fair values of forward contracts, currency swap contracts, foreign-currency margin contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and interest rate swap contracts are calculated using the discounted cash flow method, unless the fair values are provided by counter-parties. Fair values of option contracts are based on estimates using the Black Scholes pricing model.

The Company estimates the fair value of each forward contract on the basis of the swap points quoted by Reuters on each settlement date. Fair values of interest rate swap contracts and cross-currency swap contracts are calculated using the Bloomberg information system, unless the fair values are provided by counterparties. The calculation of the fair value of each option contract is based on the mid-price (the average of bid and ask prices) quoted by Reuters and applied consistently.

For debt instruments with no active market, if there are theoretical prices from GreTai Securities Market (GTSM, an over-the-counter securities exchange) on the balance sheet date, they are used as the basis for evaluating the fair value of debt instruments with no active market. Otherwise, the latest trade prices and quoted prices by major markets are used. The fair values of bank debentures are recorded as follows: (a) debentures with no maturity dates - at book values; (b) debentures with floating interest rates - at theoretical prices quoted by the GTSM; and (c) debentures with fixed interest rates - at estimates reached using the discounted cash flow method. The discount rates used were between 0.7325% and 1.3754%, between 0.7361% and 1.0960% as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and were comparable with interest rates for loans with similar terms and characteristics.

c. The hierarchies of the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:

Change in amount in the year 2016 $ - 2015 $ 6,311

Accumulated amount of change As of December 31, 2016 $ - As of December 31, 2015 $ -

The change in fair value of debt instruments designated as at fair value through profit or loss resulting from credit risk variation is the difference between the total change in fair value and the change in fair value due to market risk variations on these debt instruments. The change in fair value resulting from market risk variations is calculated using the benchmark yield rate plus a fixed credit spread. The fair value of debt instruments is the present value of future cash flows discounted by the benchmark yield rate quoted in the market as of the balance sheet date plus the credit spread estimated using the interest rates for the debt issuers’ financial assets with similar maturities.

As of the balance sheet date, the debt instruments designated as at fair value through profit or loss have no concentration of credit risk. Their carrying amounts are the amount of the maximum exposure to credit risks of these debt instruments. e. Information on financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit of loss is as follows:

Change in Fair Values Resulting from Credit Risk Variations

Change in amount in the year 2016 $ 32,330 2015 $ 2,168

Accumulated amount of change As of December 31, 2016 $ 34,498 As of December 31, 2015 $ 2,168

The change in fair value attributable to change in credit risk was calculated as the difference between total change in fair value of bank debentures and the change in fair value due to change in market risk factors alone. The change in fair value due to market risk factors was calculated using benchmark interest yield curves as at the end of the reporting period holding. The fair value of bank debentures was estimated by discounting future cash flows using quoted benchmark interest yield curves as at the end of the reporting period and by obtaining lender quotes for borrowing of similar maturity to estimate credit risk margin.

f. Information on financial risk management

1) Risk management

The objective of risk management is to develop a sound risk management mechanism, and on the basis of the risk tolerance level and the expected return level, pursue the maximum value of stockholders’ investments. The main risks faced by the Bank include the business credit risk in- and off- balance-sheet, market risks (including interest, exchange, equity security, and commodity risks) and liquidity risk.

The Bank has risk management policies and risk monitoring procedures, which have been reviewed and approved by the Board and are used to effectively identify, measure, monitor and control credit, market, and operating and liquidity risks.

The Board, the highest decision-making unit for the risk management, takes charge of approving the risk management policy and system and building the risk management culture. It also takes ultimate responsibility for overall risk management.

Under the risk management decision approved by the Board, the risk management committee takes charge of and reviews all the Bank’s risk management implementation, capital adequacy assessment, and risk exposure management. It also communicates and the inter-departmental risk management issues and coordinates issue handling and continually monitor the execution of risk management procedures. The risk management department is responsible for planning and designing the risk management system, deliberating capital allocation, setting up the instruments for risk measurement and capital provision, and monitoring risk control. This department also regularly prepares reports for submission to senior management, the risk management committee and the Board.

Under the business management regulation and risk policy, the business supervising unit manages and oversees each business unit toward proper risk management and carries out risk review and control. In addition, the Audit Department independently audits at least once a year all risk-related businesses and timely provides suggestions for improvement.

2) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to a borrower, a financial instrument issuer or a transaction counterparty undergoing financial difficulty or other adverse situations (such as a dispute between the borrower and its business partner), which could result in loss due to breach of contract. Credit risk can come from on- and off-balance-sheet items. On-balance sheet items are mainly lending, due from bank and call loans to other banks, security investment and derivatives. Off-balance sheet items are mainly guarantees, acceptance, letters of credit and loan commitments.

The risk management policy, which is founded on the basic principles of safety, liquidity, profitability, welfare and growth, is implemented by the credit risk management division toward the cultivation of a risk management culture. All on- and off- balance sheet transactions should be detailed analyzed in detail to identify existing and potential credit risk. Based on the Bank’s business characteristics and the principle of risk diversification, risk status is analyzed and evaluated, centralized limits are set, and a risk monitoring and alert mechanism has been developed and operated. For a more effective credit risk evaluation, an internal rating system has been created to enhance the ability to quantify risk. 82 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

The Company’s main business items that are measured and managed for credit risks are as follows: a) Loans business (including loan commitment and guarantees):

Credit assets are classified into five categories. In addition to normal credit assets that are classified as sound assets, the unsound assets are classified, on the basis of the valuation of collaterals and the length of time the payments become overdue, as special mention, substandard, with collectability high doubtful and uncollectable. The Company also sets up policies for the management of doubtful credits and the collection of overdue debts to deal with collection problems.

The Company applies to its credit business the so-called “5Ps of credit analysis” as the basis for lending approval and evaluation of its counterparties. These 5Ps are: People (know customers’ background and their credit status well); purpose (what will the fund be used for); payment (the borrower’s ability to repay an obligation when it falls due); protection (the Company’ recourse on repayment defaults); and perspective (how the credit is seen in light of rewards and risks). After a loan is granted, the transaction is reviewed and monitored to ensure creditor’s rights of the Company.

To quantify credit risk, the Company applies statistical methods using with customers’ qualitative data and lending history to develop a rating module for corporate finance and consumer finance. This module is used to create an internal credit rating system for risk evaluation, in which 9 is the base grade of the credit quality of corporate customers, and 8 or 10 on the business segment consumer customers.

The 5P credit analysis and the module rating specifically apply to corporate customers. Micro credits and residential mortgages are assessed by using the credit rating model, and consumer loans are assessed individually for default risks. b) Due from and call loans to other banks

The Company evaluates the credit status of counterparties before closing deals. The Company grants different limits to the counterparties on the basis of their respective credit ratings as suggested by domestic and foreign credit rating agencies. c) Investments in debt instruments and derivatives

The Company identifies and manages credit risks from debt instruments through the use of external credit ratings of the debt instruments along with the evaluation of credit qualities of bonds, regional conditions and counterparty risks.

The Company conducts derivative transactions with other banks and sets the credit limits (including lending limits) at their credit rating and the ranking given by the Banker magazine. The credits extended to general customers are monitored in accordance with the related contract terms and conditions and the credit limits for derivatives established through normal credit granting processes.

The Company has a series of measures for credit granting to reduce credit risks. One of the procedures is asking for collaterals from the borrowers. To secure a debt, the Company manages and assesses the collaterals following the procedures that determine the scope of collateralization and valuation of collaterals and the process of disposition. In credit contracts, the Company stipulates the security mechanism for debts; the conditions and terms for collaterals; and the terms and conditions of offsetting to state clearly that the Company reserves the right to reduce the granted quota, to reduce the repayment period, to demand immediate settlement or to offset the debts of the borrowers by their deposits in the Company in order to reduce the credit risks.

To avoid the concentration of credit risks, the Company sets up centralized credit limits for business segments, countries, collaterals, groups, and construction financing. Monthly, or more frequently, as needed, the Company reviews credit limits, monitors the actual risk-exposure condition and whether the usage rate of limits meets relevant regulations and reports the review results to superior management, risk management committee and the Board periodically. If there is a possibility of breach of the credit limits, the related department or division will apply appropriate procedures to ensure that the credit limits are followed.

The Company settles most of its transactions at gross amounts. For further reduction of credit risks, settlement netting is used for some counterparties or in some circumstances where the transactions are terminated because of counterparty’s default.

Financial Information 83

The maximum exposures to credit risks of assets on the consolidated balance sheets without consideration of guarantees or other credit enforcement instruments approximate the assets’ carrying amounts. The maximum exposures of off-balance sheet items to credit risks without consideration of guarantees or other credit enforcement instruments are as follows:

December 31 2016 2015

Irrevocable loan commitments issued $ 101,561,712 $ 101,337,530 Irrevocable credit card commitments 41,895,556 37,667,998 Letters of credit issued yet unused 21,152,739 17,365,650 Other guarantees 78,348,294 75,846,447

The Company’s management believes its ability to minimize credit risk exposures on off-balance sheet items is mainly due to its rigorous evaluation of credit extended and the periodic reviews of these credits.

Concentration of credit risk exists when counterparties to financial transactions are individuals or groups engaged in similar activities or activities in the same region, which would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. The profile by group or industry, regions and collaterals of obligations that were 10% or more of total outstanding loans is as follows:

December 31 Credit Risk Profile by 2016 2015 Group or Industry Amount % Amount %

Natural person $ 809,134,142 39 $ 811,865,538 39 Manufacturing 327,044,724 16 322,834,983 16

Some financial assets held by the Company, such as cash and cash equivalents, due from the Central Bank and call loans to other banks, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, securities purchased under resell agreements and refundable deposits, are exposed to low credit risks because the counterparties have high credit ratings.

In addition to the above assets, credit quality analysis of other financial assets are as follows:

3) Market risks

Market risk refers to the risk of losses in positions arising from adverse movements of market prices. It refers to interest rates, exchange rates, equity security prices, commodity prices, etc.

The main market risks that the Company faces are equity security, interest rate, and exchange rate risks. The market risk position of equity security mainly includes domestic listed and OTC stocks, domestic stock index options and stock market index futures; the position of interest rate mainly includes short-term bills, bonds and interest rate derivative instruments; and the instruments exposed to exchange rate risk mainly include spot contracts and forward contracts and derivatives denominated in foreign currency.

Under the market risk management policies approved by the board of directors, the new Basel Capital Accord and regulations implemented by relevant authorities and in consideration of the Bank’s own market risk management system and its overall risk management goals and product features, the Company has set all types of investment authorization limits and stop-loss rules, regularly reviews the customers’ credit status and compiles management information reports to control all types of market risks effectively.

The Company’s market risk management procedures include risk identification, evaluation, measurement, monitoring, and reporting. Every units’ risk management personnel analyze data on market risk position and evaluate measurement methods, including the statistical basic measurement method, sensitivity analysis, and situational analysis. Monitoring content includes trading processes, collective and individual, of all transaction units and all financial instruments, such as change of position, change of profit and loss, trading pattern, and if trading objects are transacted within the authorized scope and limits.

The Company’s business units and risk management unit have established market risk factors for identifying risk exposure positions and use these factors to measure market risks. The market risk factors refer to the components of financial instruments’ position, such as profit and loss and sensitivity to risk, which might be affected by interest rates, exchange rates and equity security market prices.

The Company’s risk management unit reports to management periodically the execution status of measures on market risk management, investment positions, and profit and loss control so that management can fully understand the status of market risk management. The Company also has cleared reporting procedures and rules for all types of transaction limits and the stop-loss order. If any transaction amount reaches the limit, the stop-loss order is executed immediately; if the stop-loss order is not executed, the transaction unit is required to explain the reasons for non-execution and prepare a response plan for management’s approval.

The Bank applies market risk sensitivity as a risk control instrument. Market risk sensitivity position refers to the change in the value of a position due to a change in a certain market risk factor. Market risk factors include interest rates, exchange rates, and equity security prices. The Bank’s position sensitivity exposure trading book contains all types of positions exposed to market risk and the range of change to which sensitivity analysis applied under various pressure scenarios for all types of risk factors.

Assuming all other factors are held constant, the effects of risks within defined change scenarios are shown below:

Liquidity risk is inherent in all bank operations and might be affected by specific or general industry and environmental events. These events include credit-related events, mergers or acquisitions, systemic changes and natural disasters. The Company defines liquidity risk as the inability to realize assets or to obtain financing for meeting obligations when they fall due, resulting in loss.

The liquidity risk management strategy is based on the overall risk management objectives and involves liquidity risk, identification, measurement, monitoring and control to maintain the Bank’s appropriate liquidity and ensure adequate funding for meeting liability obligations or for capital growth.

The liquidity risk management procedures involve identification, measurement, monitoring and report of risk. Each business unit should identify the existing liquidity risk in business activities and financial products.

For adequate liquidity for all types of deposits, the Bank follows the relevant regulations issued by the Central Bank to estimate the liquidity reserves and calculates and controls daily liquidity reserve ratios.

For the Bank’s operating liquidity, the fund disbursement unit performs daily cash flow management and monitoring of the payments schedule on the basis of detailed reports by different departments and relevant rules.

The risk management department regularly generates risk reports, which include the liquidity reserve ratios and the maturity analysis of instruments and transactions denominated in major foreign currencies, and submits them to the Asset and Liability Management Committee and the Board as reference for decision making.

The Bank stipulates liquidity risk limits, which are regularly monitored and reviewed by the risk management department. If a liquidity risk limit is exceeded or other exception situations occur, the business supervising unit immediately develops appropriate contingency measures and submits them to the Asset and Liability Management Committee for approval and implementation.

The Bank contingency measures for business emergency or sudden liquidity crisis are aimed at quick crisis resolution and resumption of normal operations.

The Bank’s liquidity reserve ratios were 25.51% and 23.48% in December 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company disclosed the analysis of cash outflows on non-derivative financial liabilities by their residual maturities as of the balance sheet dates.

Transfers of financial assets

Under the Company operations, most of derecognized financial assets are securities sold under repurchase agreements, and the contractual cash flows have been transferred to others. The Company has the responsibility to repurchase transferred financial assets at fixed prices, and can not use, sell and pledge transferred financial assets. However, the Company is still in the risk exposure of interest rate and credit, so the transferred financial assets can not be removed entirely. The information on derecognized financial assets and liabilities is as follows:

Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities

The Company is eligible to present in the balance sheet on a net basis certain derivative assets and derivative liabilities pertaining to transactions with counterparties under enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements and there is an intention either to make settlements on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. A master netting agreement provides for a single net settlement of all financial instruments covered by the agreement if the counterparty defaults on any contract. Parties may also settle transactions at gross amounts if a single settlement results in cash flows being equivalent to a single net amount.

39. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

In according to the authority’s regulation for principles of capital adequacy management, the Bank lists all the risks into the capital adequacy evaluation scope. In accordance with the operation plans and budget targets, which approved by the board of directors, also considering the Bank’s development strategy, capital adequacy, liabilities ratios, and dividend policy, the Bank proposes capital adequacy evaluation plan, which include stress testing, estimation for each season’s capital adequacy ratio, etc. to ensure the capital adequacy ratio can be reached and capital structure is sound.

To monitor capital adequacy, the risk management department regularly reports capital adequacy ratios every month and also quarterly reviews the execution status of and actual operation data variation on the Bank’s capital adequacy evaluation plan. When the actual capital adequacy ratio might go lower than target, the Bank immediately reviews the causes, prepares a report and proposes a response strategy to maintain the appropriate capital adequacy levels.

The Banking Law and related regulations require that the Bank maintain the minimum requirement for unconsolidated and consolidated capital adequacy ratios (CAR), including the common equity Tier 1 ratio, Tier 1 capital ratio, and total capital adequacy ratio.

5.6 Stand Alone Financial Statements

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd., which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks and Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements of Financial Institutions by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Notes 1 and 44 of the financial statements, which describes the merger of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd., and its 100% owned subsidiary Cooperative Insurance Brokers Co., Ltd., on June 24, 2016. The combination was a reorganization under common control. In accordance with the IFRS queries and rules issued by Accounting Research and Development Foundation, prior period comparative information in the financial statements is restated as if business combination involving entities under common control had already accorded in the period. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. for the year ended December 31, 2016. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matters in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 were as follows:

Impairment Assessment on Discounts and Loans

The discounts and loans of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. as of December 31, 2016 were 1,982,308,006 thousands, consisting 63% of total assets. Therefore, the assessment on the impairment loss of the discounts and loans may have significant impacts on the financial statements. The assessment on the impairment of the discounts and loans performed by the management of the Bank is based on whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. The amount of impairment loss is the difference between the book value and the estimated future cash flows of the discounts and loans (with consideration to the collaterals and guarantees). In addition, the amount of provisions of impairment loss made should also be in accordance with FSC guidelines. Impairment assessment on discounts and loans was identified as a key audit matter due to the critical judgements and estimations involved. For accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements; for discounts and loans, refer to Note 11.

With respect to critical judgements, estimations, and assumptions used, the procedures we performed were as follows: 1. Understand and test the internal control of impairment assessment on discounts and loans performed by the Bank. 2. Sample loans that are individually assessed for impairment loss to evaluate the reasonableness of estimated future cash flow, including the assumptions, discount rates and the value of collaterals. 3. Test the assumption pertaining to the model, data, and calculation for loans that are assessed collectively for impairment loss, including the historical data adopted, the classification of similar credit risk, recovery rate, and the impairment rate. 4. Test the classification of credit assets of the Bank to evaluate whether the classification of credit assets and provisions of impairment loss are in accordance with the FSC guidelines by considering the length of overdue of the loans and the value of collaterals. 104 Annual Report 2016

Taiwan Cooperative Bank

Assessment on Post-Employment Benefits

The present value of defined benefit obligation was calculated based on the actuarial results with application of various assumptions. Assessment on post-employment benefits was identified as a key audit matters due to the critical judgements and estimations involved. For accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements; for post-employment benefits, refer to Notes 26 and 27.

With respect to the actuarial report of defined benefit obligation, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Evaluate the actuary on the basis of qualification, competency, and objectivity. 2. Evaluate the reasonableness of the actuarial assumptions and method applied, including discount rates, expected rates of future salary increase and expected rate of return on plan asset. 3. Obtain and evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the information used by the actuary.

Assessment on Retired Employees’ Preferential Deposit Benefits

The present value of retired employees’ preferential deposit obligation was calculated based on the actuarial results with application of various assumptions. Assessment on the retired employees’ preferential deposit benefits was identified as a key audit matters due to the application of critical judgements and estimations. For the accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements; for the employees’ preferential deposit benefits, refer to Notes 26 and 27.

With respect to the actuarial report of retired employees’ preferential deposit obligation, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Evaluate the actuary on the basis of qualification, competency, and objectivity. 2. Evaluate the reasonableness of the actuarial assumptions and method applied, including discount rates, return on deposit, account balance decrease rate per year, and rate of probability of change in the preferential deposit system. 3. Obtain and evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the information used by the actuary.

Impairment Assessment on Goodwill

When the management of the Bank determines whether goodwill is impaired, estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated is required. The calculation of value in use requires the management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating units and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Impairment assessment on goodwill was identified as a key audit matters due to the critical judgements and estimations involved. For the accounting policies and critical accounting judgements and estimations, refer to Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements; for impairment assessment on goodwill, refer to Note 18.

With respect to the report of impairment assessment on goodwill and the report of discount rate used in assessment, the procedures we performed were as follows:

1. Evaluate the external expert on the basis of qualification, competency, and objectivity. 2. Evaluate the reasonableness of model and assumptions used by the external expert. 3. Obtain and evaluate the completeness and accuracy of the information used by the external expert. 4. Evaluate the reasonableness of the expected future cash flows arising from the cash-generating units allocated to goodwill.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Public Banks and the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Firms, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd.’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Bank or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Bank’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Financial Information 105

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd.’s internal control. 3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. 4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd.’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. to cease to continue as a going concern. 5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence of the financial information of the components of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd. to express an opinion on the financial statements. Our responsibility is to guide, monitor and implement the audit engagement, and express an opinion based on our audits of Taiwan Cooperative Bank, Ltd.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Li-Chi Chen and Cheng-Hung Kuo.
