Druskininkai recreational water park – one of the most outstanding project of the year 2006 in Lithuania.

Друскининкайский аквапарк – один из самых впечатляющих проектов 2006 года в Литве.

65 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 2006 metais mes kreditavome pirmąjį Lietuvoje pirčių ir vandens pramogų parką Druskininkuose.

Įspūdingas 5 korpusų, 25000 kv. m. poilsio ir pramogų kompleksas vienu metu gali priimti 1500 lankytojų ir yra pats didžiausias bei moderniausias visame Baltijos regione.

Ilgą laiką Lietuvos gyventojai pramogauti vandens parkuose galėdavo tik išvykę į užsienio šalis – kaimyninę Lenkiją, Latviją ar dar toliau. Todėl mes džiaugiamės galėję prisidėti prie šio projekto finansavimo, padovanoti lietuviams galimybę mėgautis pirčių malonumais ir vandens pramogomis gimtajame krašte bei skatinti verslo ir investicinę aplinką atgimusiame viename gražiausių Lietuvos kurortų.

In 2006 we credited Druskininkai recreational water park, which was the first in Lithuania.

Impressive leisure and recreational complex, having 5 blocks and occupying the area of 25000 square meters, can at the same time admit 1500 visitors and is the largest and most modern in the whole Baltic region.

For a long time Lithuanian residents were deprived of the possibility to enjoy water attractions, so the only possibility for them was to go to foreign countries –

Aldona Vičiulienė, Druskininkų pirčių ir vandens pramogų parko direktorė:

„Naujasis pirčių ir vandens pramogų bei poilsio kompleksas Druskininkuose yra išties išskirtinis ir unikalus projektas. Realizuojant tokio masto projektą, labai svarbus visų jame dalyvaujančių šalių susikalbėjimas, noras bendradarbiauti, profesionalumas. Bankas SNORAS mums nėra tik finansuotojas. Vertiname jį kaip mūsų patikimą partnerį“.

That is why we celebrate our contribution to financing this project and furnishing Lithuanians with the opportunity to enjoy the water pleasures in their native land as well as promoting business and investment environment in one of the most beautiful Lithuanian resorts, which is in the state of revival now.

В 2006 году мы предоставили кредит первому в Литве аквапарку в Друскининкай.

Огромный комплекс отдыха и развлечений площадью 25000 м2, состоящий из 5 корпусов, одновременно может принять до 1500 посетителей и является самым большим и современным в Прибалтике.

Долгое время жители Литвы развлечься в аквапарке могли только за пределами страны – в соседней Польше, Латвии или еще дальше. Поэтому мы рады, что смогли приложиться к финансированию данного проекта, подарить жителям Литвы возможность насладиться радостями водных аттракционов в родном краю, внести свой вклад в развитие деловой и инвестиционной среды одного из красивейших курортов страны.

Aldona Vičiulienė, Director of Druskininkai Алдона Вичюлене, директор water recreational park: Друскининкайского аквапарка:

"New water recreational and leisure complex in «Новый комплекс водных развлечений и отдыха в Druskininkai is really unique and rather ambitious Друскининкай является поистине исключительным project.

73 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 2006 metais sukako dešimt metų, kai bankas SNORAS pradėjo emituoti pirmąsias banko mokėjimo korteles „eLitoCard“. Tai buvo naujiena rinkoje, nes turinčios integruotą lustą (mikroprocesorių), apsaugantį nuo neteisėto kortelės panaudojimo, kortelės buvo pirmosios tokio pobūdžio mokėjimo kortelės Lietuvoje.

Praėjus dešimtmečiui, ir šiandien savo klientams siūlome pažangiausias saugumą užtikrinančias technologijas. 2006 metais pristatėme saugiausią mokėjimo kortelių šeimą Lietuvoje – tarptautines lustines korteles „MasterCard“, veikiančias pagal alternatyvų Baltijos regione neturinčią dinaminio duomenų patikrinimo (DDA) technologiją bei apdraustas mokėjimo kortelių lėšų bei kelionių finansinių nuostolių draudimu.

Šiandien 9 iš 10 mūsų klientų turi bent vieną banko išleistą mokėjimo kortelę, o SNORAS šalies rinkoje užima tvirtą trečiąją vietą pagal emituotų mokėjimo kortelių skaičių ir mokėjimo kortelių apyvartą.

In 2006 it was ten years since Bankas SNORAS started issuing first payment cards “eLitoCard”. It was an innovation in the market, because these cards had integrated chip (microprocessor) securing from unauthorized use of the card and there were no payment cards of such type in Lithuania before.

After ten years have passed, we still offer our clients the most progressive safety technologies. In 2006 we launched the safest payment cards series in Lithuania – international microchip MasterCard cards, based on dynamic data authentification

Rada Matulevičienė, HBH „Juozo alaus bravoro“ savininkė:

„Turiu netgi kelias banko SNORAS mokėjimo korteles. Vieną įprastą, nuo seniau. Kita – su naujuoju lustu – patraukė savo stilingu dizainu ir teikiamu išskirtiniu saugumu. Ieškojau internete – lustinės DDA technologijos dar niekam nepavyko įveikti. Manau, kad šiuolaikiškiems ir aktyviems žmonėms tiesiog būtina naudotis tuo, kas šiandien yra pažangiausia.“

Today 9 of 10 our clients have at least one payment card issued by the bank, while SNORAS takes a stable third position in the state market in terms of the number of the issued payment cards and their turnover.

В 2006 году исполнилось 10 лет выпуска первых платежных карточек банка «eLitoCard». Это была новинка на рынке, т.к. карточки, оснащенные встроенным чипом (микропроцессором), защищающим от неправомерного использования, были первыми платежными карточками такого рода в Литве.

По прошествии десятилетия, своим клиентам мы предлагаем самые современные технологии по обеспечению безопасности. В 2006 году мы представили самую защищенную серию платежных карточек в Литве – международные микропроцессорные карточки «MasterCard», действующие на основе не имеющей аналогов в Прибалтике технологии динамичной проверки данных (DDA) и застрахованные страхованием средств на счету и страхованием от убытков во время путешествий.

Сегодня у 9 из 10 наших клиентов есть хотя бы одна выпущенная банком платежная карта, а «Снорас» на рынке страны занимает стабильное третье место по числу выпущенных карточек и обороту по ним.

Rada Matulevičienė, the owner Рада Матулявичене, of HBH Juozo alaus bravoras: владелица пивоварни «HBH Juozo»:

Exclusive payment card ”Žalgiris MasterCard“ is a result of tight cooperation between the basketball club and the bank.

Эксклюзивная платежная карточка «Žalgiris MasterCard» является плодом тесного сотрудничества между банком и баскетбольным клубом.

77 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 Banko SNORAS ir krepšinio klubo „Žalgiris“ bendradarbiavimas prasidėjo prieš 3 metus, tačiau per šį laiką kartu spėjome nuveikti gerokai daugiau nei kitiems pavyksta per dešimtmetį – banko sėkmė ir „Žalgirio“ laimėjimai vienas kitą papildo ir tvirtina.

Pradėję remti krepšinio klubą tapome generaliniu rėmėju ir oficialiu „Žalgirio“ banku. Laikui bėgant stiprėjanti partnerystė įgauna vis daugiau įvairių formų – 2006 m. bankas tapo sporto klubo „Žalgiris“ akcininku. Ši investicija – indėlis į komandą, jos sėkmę ir naujas pergales, padedantis auginti jaunąją krepšininkų kartą.

Legendinę krepšinio komandą remiame ir kitais būdais – kartu su krepšinio klubu išleista mokėjimo kortelė „Žalgiris MasterCard“ vienija banką ne tik su žalgiriečiais, bet ir su visais krepšinio sirgaliais. Nuo kiekvienos mokėjimo operacijos, atliktos šia kortele, bankas tam tikrą dalį pajamų perveda „Žalgirio“ klubui, leisdamas sporto aistruoliams be jokių papildomų išlaidų paremti mylimą komandą.

Cooperation between Bankas SNORAS and “Žalgiris” basketball club has started 3 years ago, however, during this time we managed to do much more then other could in a decade – the bank’s success and the victories of Žalgiris complement and affirm each other.

By starting supporting the basketball club, we became its primary sponsor and official bank of Žalgiris. In the course of time the consolidating partnership acquires various new forms– in 2006 the bank became the shareholder of Žalgiris sport club. This investment – deposit to the team, its success and new victories, helping to raise young generation of basketball players.

Raimondas Baranauskas, AB banko SNORAS prezidentas: „Tai, kad SNORAS tapo „Žalgirio” klubo akcininku, yra rimtas, apgalvotas ir atsakingas žingsnis, įpareigojantis banką ir sutvirtinantis bendradarbiavimą. Mes nuoširdžiai džiaugiamės komandos laimėjimais ir didžiuojamės, kad tapome garbingo klubo akcininkais.”

Arvydas Sabonis, krepšinio klubo Kauno „Žalgiris” valdybos pirmininkas: „Banko paramą ir palaikymą jaučiame visų rungtynių metu. Labai vertiname naujas banko SNORAS iniciatyvas, įsipareigojimus ir judėjimą į priekį. Turėdami patikimą strateginį partnerį – profesionalų konsultantą bei stiprų finansinį užnugarį, jaučiamės daug tvirčiau.”

78 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 We support the legendary basketball team by other means as well – Žalgiris MasterCard payment card issued together with the basketball club unites the bank not only with the supporters of Žalgiris but also with the whole community of basketball fans. From every payment transaction performed by this card, the bank transfers a certain share of income to Žalgiris club, so it allows sport fans to support their beloved team without additional costs.

Сотрудничество банка и баскетбольного клуба «Жальгирис» началось 3 года назад, однако за это время мы сделали больше, чем другим удается за десять лет – успехи банка и победы «Жальгириса» дополняют и укрепляют друг друга.

Мы стали генеральным спонсором и официальным банком «Жальгириса». Со временем укрепляющееся партнерство приобретает новые формы – в 2006 году банк стал акционером спортклуба «Жальгирис». Данная инвестиция – вклад в команду, в ее успех и новые победы, способствующий росту нового поколения баскетболистов.

Легендарную баскетбольную команду мы поддерживаем и другими способами – совместно с клубом выпущена платежная карточка «Žalgiris MasterCard», объединяющая банк не только с членами клуба «Жальгирис», но и со всеми болельщиками. От каждой платежной операции, выполненной посредством данной карточки, банк переводит определенную часть дохода клубу «Жальгирис», что позволяет страстным болельщикам без дополнительных затрат поддерживать любимую команду.

81 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 Unikali banko SNORAS mini bankų sistema sėkmingai veikia nuo 1996-ųjų – šiandien mūsų „snoriuką“ ar bankomatą galima rasti kone visose žmonėms patogiose ar jų lankomose vietose.

Klientų aptarnavimo tinklas yra nuolat tobulinamas, atsižvelgiant į didėjantį klientų ratą bei augančius jų poreikius – 2006 metais duris atvėrė naujoviško dizaino banko skyriai didžiuosiuose prekybos ir pramogų centruose, dirbantys septynias dienas per savaitę, taip pat buvo atlikta mini bankų tinklo visoje Lietuvoje renovacija.

Pas mus pasiteisinusi mini bankų koncepcija 2006 metais pradėta taikyti ir kaimyninėje Latvijoje – modernūs ir mobilūs banko paviljonai papildė vieno didžiausių ir seniausių bankų Latvijoje „Latvijas Krājbanka“ tinklą.

Unique system of SNORAS mini-banks has been successfully operating since 1996 – today our “little snoras” or ATM can be found in almost every place convenient for the clients and usually visited by them. The client service network is constantly being improved with regard to the increasing number of clients as well as their growing demands – in 2006 in the largest shopping and recreational centers there were established bank subdivisions of new-fashioned design, which work seven days per week; moreover, the network of mini-banks was renovated in all Lithuania.

Angelė Kaušylienė, Utenos apskrities viršininkė:

„Vertinu gerai išplėtotą banko SNORAS klientų aptarnavimo tinklą. Dirbančiam žmogui ne taip paprasta susitvarkyti finansinius reikalus darbo metu, o šiame banke patogiai ir greitai gaunu finansines paslaugas ne tik įprastinėmis darbo valandomis.“

82 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 From 2006 the conception of mini-banks which served the purpose in Lithuania started to be applied in nearby Latvia – the network of one of the largest and oldest banks in Latvia Latvijas Krājbanka was supplemented by modern and mobile bank pavilions.

Уникальная система мини-банков банкa «Снорас» успешно действует с 1996 года – сегодня наш «Снорик» или банкомат можно найти, пожалуй, в любом удобном и посещаемом людьми месте.

Сеть обслуживания клиентов постоянно совершенствуется: принимая во внимание расширение круга клиентов и рост их потребностей, в 2006 году в крупнейших торгово-развлекательных центрах был открыт ряд новых банковских отделений, работающих семь дней в неделю, также проведена реновация сети мини-банков по всей Литве.

Оправдавшаяся у нас концепция мини-банков с 2006 года внедряется и в соседней Латвии – современные и мобильные павильоны банка пополнили сеть одного из крупнейших и старейших банков Латвии «Латвияс Крайбанка».

Angelė Kaušylienė, Ангeле Каушилене, head of Utena district: начальник Утянского уезда:

"I appreciate well-developed client service network «Ценю хорошо развитую сеть обслуживания of Bankas SNORAS. For a working person it is not клиентов банка «Снорас».

85 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 Mūsų DARBUOTOJAI Per 15 metų sukūrėme didžiausią klientų aptarnavimo tinklą Lietuvoje. Įžvelgdami plačias galimybes, savarankiškai tapome tarptautiniu banku. Sparti banko plėtra skatina kurti naujas darbo vietas ir gausinti banko SNORAS darbuotojų gretas, kurios 2006 metais gerokai padidėjo. Metų pradžioje planavome sukurti 100 naujų darbo vietų, ir per 2006 metus buvo priimta 117 darbuotojų. Tokiu būdu banko specialistų skaičius išaugo iki 1004. Banko personalo politika formuojama siekiant, kad banko darbuotojas būtų kompetentingas savo srities specialistas, gebantis suteikti didžiausią naudą klientui, užtikrinti jo pasitikėjimą banku. Darbuotojų kompetencijų ugdymas yra vienas svarbiausių personalo politikos uždavinių. Išaugus naujų darbuotojų skaičiui, ypač daug dėmesio ir pastangų skiriama šių darbuotojų adaptacijai ir sėkmingam įsiliejimui į banko kolektyvą. Rūpinantis esamais banko darbuotojais, nepamirštama ir būsimoji banko darbuotojų pamaina. Bankas aktyviai bendradarbiauja su aukštojo mokslo įstaigomis, kviečiasi praktikai geriausius studentus. Bankas nuolat investuoja į darbuotojų mokymą ir ugdymą – per 2006 metus investicijos į mokymus buvo beveik du kartus didesnės nei 2005 metais. Geriausia šių investicijų grąža, kurios bankas sulaukia iš savo darbuotojų – efektyvus ir produktyvus darbas, kokybiški ir profesionalūs sprendimai bei darbinė kompetencija. 2006 metais bankas SNORAS tapo vienu iš dvidešimties patraukliausių darbdavių Lietuvoje („TNS Gallup“ atlikto tyrimo „Patraukliausio darbdavio indeksas 2006“ duomenimis).

Our EMPLOYEES In 2006 the number of employees substantially increased. In the beginning of the year the Bank planned to create 100 new working places and within 2006 117 employees were employed. So, the number of the bank’s specialists reached 1004. The bank’s personnel policy is formed in order for an employee to be a competent specialist of its field, able to provide the greatest benefit to the client as well as to secure the client’s trust in the bank. One of the most important tasks of the personnel policy is the cultivation of employees’ competence.

Edita Povilavičienė, Personalo departamento direktorė :

„Manau, kad kiekvienas banko darbuotojas, nuolat tobulėdamas ir augdamas, prisideda prie banko augimo. Savo ruožtu, bankas kelia sau tikslą tapti geriausiu darbdaviu.“

86 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 With the number of new employees increasing, much attention and efforts are directed to the adaptation of these employees and their successful integration into the bank’s collective. In taking care of current bank employees, the bank also does not disregard its future shift of employees. The bank is actively cooperating with higher education institutions, invites the best students for internship in the bank. The bank is constantly investing into employees’ training and education – within 2006 years investments into training almost doubled in comparison with 2005. The best return of these investments that the bank received from its employees is effective and productive work, qualitative and professional decisions as well as working competence. In 2006 Bankas SNORAS became one of 20 most attractive employers in Lithuania (according to the data of Most Attractive Employer Index 2006 survey conducted by TNS Gallup).

Наши СОТРУДНИКИ В 2006 году ряды сотрудников банка «Снорас» значительно пополнились. В начале года планировалось создание 100 новых рабочих мест, а в течение 2006 года было принято 117 новых сотрудников. Таким образом, число специалистов банка выросло до 1004. Кадровая политика банка формируется так, чтобы сотрудник банка являлся компетентным специалистом в своей области, способным принести максимальную пользу клиенту, заручиться его доверием. Повышение компетенции сотрудников является одной из важнейших задач кадровой политики банка. В связи с ростом числа новых сотрудников, больше внимания уделяется их адаптации, успешному влиянию в банковский коллектив. Банк заботится о своих сотрудниках, не забывая и о будущей смене. Банк активно сотрудничает с ВУЗами, приглашает на практику лучших студентов.

Bankas – visavertis Lietuvos bendruomenės narys, nuolat prisideda prie ekonominės ir politinės gerovės didinimo. Kiekvienais metais bankas dalį pelno skiria visuomenei svarbių kultūros, sporto, švietimo ir meno projektų rėmimui.

Vis daugiau lėšų skiriama paramos ir labdaros projektams. 2006 metais banko grupė paramai skyrė 8 kartus daugiau lėšų. Viso per ataskaitinį laikotarpį labdarai ir paramai skirta virš 3 milijonų litų.

2006 metai buvo reikšmingi bankui, kaip kultūros ir sporto rėmėjui. Bankas remia bene geriausiai kiekvienam lietuviui žinomą, Eurolygos 1998/1999 sezone čempiono titulą pelniusį krepšinio klubą „Žalgiris“ ir tapo vienu iš šio krepšinio klubo savininkų, įsigydamas dalį klubo akcijų.

Bankas remia ne tik sportą, bet ir mokslą. 2006 metais bankas pasirašė bendradarbiavimo sutartį su Vilniaus universitetu, yra įsteigęs stipendijas Vilniaus universiteto, Vilniaus pedagoginio universiteto, Kauno technologijos universiteto studentams, remia aukštųjų mokyklų renginius.

Tradiciškai remiame ir kultūros projektus. Teikdami paramą Klaipėdos, Šiaulių bei Marijampolės teatrams, prisidedame prie turiningo ir intensyvaus Lietuvos teatro vystymosi ir džiaugiamės vis didėjančiu dramos meno populiarumu mūsų krašte.

Daugelį metų plėtodamas sporto ir kultūros renginių paramos politiką, bankas SNORAS nusprendė tapti lenktynininkų komandos rėmėju „Ferrari Challenge Europe” čempionate, kuriame sportininkai lenktyniauja „Ferrari” gamintojo automobiliais.

Bankui atstovaus ekipa „SNORAS bank MenX Team”. Ši komanda 2007 metais dalyvaus varžybų serijoje „Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli-Europe”, kuri vyksta geriausiose pasaulio žiedinėse trasose: Monza (Italijoje), Misano (Italijoje), Silverstone (Didžiojoje Britanijoje), SPA (Belgijoje), Paul Ricard (Prancūzijoje) ir Hockenheim (Vokietijoje).

89 WorldReginfo - 4e91f070-7a29-4ef6-b7a1-6116f02ff3f6 We and SOCIETY

The bank is a full-fledged member of Lithuanian society and it constantly contributes to the growth of economic and political wealth. Every year the bank allocates part of its profit for supporting various cultural, sport, edu- cation and art projects which are very important for the society. More and more funds are allocated to support and charity projects. In 2006 the bank’s group committed to support eightfold larger sum of money. Total number of funds allocated to charity and support within the reporting cycle was more than LTL 3 million. The year 2006 was significant for the bank in his role as the backer of culture and sport. The bank sponsors basketball club “Žalgiris”, probably the best known one to every Lithuanian, the champion of Euroleague 1998/1999 season, and has become one of the owners of the club by acquiring a part of shares of the club.

The bank sponsors not only sports, but science as well. In 2006 the bank made a cooperation agreement with Vilnius University, has established scholarships for the students of Vilnius University, Vilnius Pedagogical University and Kaunas Technological University; the bank also sponsors events in higher schools. Traditionally, we sponsor cultural projects as well. By providing sponsorship to Klaipėda, Šiauliai and Marijampolė theaters, we make our contribution to the development of rich and intensive theatre of Lithuania and we rejoice at the increasing popularity of drama art in our country.

Many years expanding the sponsorship policy in respect of sport and cultural events, Bankas SNORAS decided to become the sponsor of the car racing team in the Ferrari Challenge Europe championship, where sportsmen race by cars manufactured by Ferrari.

Independent auditors’ report to the shareholders of Bankas SNORAS AB

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying 2006 consolidated financial statements of the Bankas SNORAS AB together with its subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprise Group’s consolidated balance sheet as of 31 december 2006, the consolidated statements of income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Bank’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by European Union. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial state- ments are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting esti- mates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of 31 December 2006, and its financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by European Union.

Report on Other Legal Requirements

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The financial information of the Bank and Financial Group in section Information Diclosures Required by Laws is presented for the purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the consoli- dated financial statements and, in our opinion, is properly prepared in all material respects in relation to the con- solidated financial statements taken as whole.

Furthermore, we have read the Annual Report of Management of the Board for the year ended 31 December 2006 and have not noted any material inconsistencies between the financial information included in it and the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2006.

The credit institutions in Lithuania and Latvia have to keep a computed deposit (compulsory reserve) at the Central bank. The amount of it depends on the funds, attracted by credit institutions. The Group’s right to withdraw the deposit is restricted by laws, according to which the monthly average amount of deposit has to be equal to the compulsory reserve, calculated according to the requirements of the Bank of Lithuania and the Bank of Latvia.

The compulsory reserve rate in Lithuania is 6%. Until 24 September 2005 there was no interest income for the compulsory reserve at the Bank of Lithuania. Since the day mentioned, the interest is calculated from the base of compulsory reserves, calculated according to the requirements of European Central Bank (ECB). There is no interest for the remaining compulsory reserves. As of 31 December 2006, 1/3 of the compulsory reserves was interest bearing. The interest rate for the interest bearing part is equal to the ECB refinancing interest rate, valid on the day of transaction.

The rate of compulsory reserves in Latvia is 8%.

During 2006 the management of the Group has made certain assumptions to arrive at the current estimates of impairment. The management of the Group constantly monitors the loan portfolio and investigates market trends so that it could make necessary changes in impairment estimation, if required. Having other information available, management of the Group may change assumptions for the impairment assessment, which would result in a change of the impairment allowance.

Securities acquired under reverse repurchase agreements can be sold in absence of default of the cus- tomer. Fair value of securities acquired under reverse repurchase agreements as of 31 December 2006 was LTL 35,162 thousand (LTL 27,013 thousand as of 31 December 2005).

Latvijas Krājbanka brand name in the amount of LTL 4,271 thousand, acquired in 2005 with acquisition with of 83.01% Latvijas Krājbanka A/S of through the business combination in 2005, is considered to have an indefinite life. It was assumed that branded net income of Latvijas Krājbanka A/S include net interest and net commission income, while profit on securities trading and foreign exchange and other operating income was perceived as non-branded net income. Accordingly, Latvijas Krājbanka brand name was allocated to Latvia’s geographical unit (net interest and net commission income as cash-generating units) and the cash flow projection for Latvia’s geo- graphical unit was used while assessing impairment of Krājbanka brand name.

The recoverable value of Latvia’s geographical unit was determined based on a value in use calculation. The cash flow projections based on the financial budgets for a four-year period were included in the calculation.

11. Intangible Assets (cont’d)

The calculation of value in use is most sensitive to the following key assumptions:

• Discount rates. This is the benchmark used by the management to assess the operating performance and to evaluate future investment proposals. In determining appropriate discount rates for cash-generating units, the regard was given to the weighted average cost of capital of Latvijas Krājbanka A/S;

• Growth rate estimates. The estimated growth of Latvia’s geographical unit was assessed at 5% per annum, as a conservative approach.

With regards to the assessment of value in use of Latvia’s geographical unit, management believes that no rea- sonably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cause the carrying value of the units to materially exceed their recoverable amount.

The acquisition of pension funds portfolio is related to the acquisition of Ieguldijumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S (Note 29).

Acquisition in 2006

On 1 April 2006 Latvija Krājbanka A/S has acquired the remaining 50% of the shares having the voting rights of Ieguldijumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S, which is engaged in management of pension funds. In such a way Ieguldijumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S became a subsidiary of the Group and is fully consolidated in these financial statements since the date of acquisition.

According to the share purchase agreement, Latvijas Krājbanka A/S has to make additional payments to the former shareholders of Ieguldījumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S until 31 December 2020. The payment amount will be calculated based on the average annual value of the pension fund. According to International Financial Reporting Standards the acquisition value is the amount of the payment made, including payments expected to be made in the future. As a result, in calculations of present value of future payments, the acquisition value of Ieguldījumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S has been increased by LTL 1,186 thousand at the date of the transaction.

The fair value of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of Ieguldijumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S as at the date of acquisition were:

Recognised on acquisition Carrying value Net balances of loans and placements with credit institutions 506 506 Held-to-maturity financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 690 690 Loans to non-banking clients 10 10 Property and equipment 30 30 Intangible assets 10 10 Pension funds portfolio* 1,182 - Other assets 4 10 2,432 1,256 Total liabilities 60 60

Fair value of net assets 2,372 Group’s share of the fair value of net assets (50%) 1,186 Goodwill arising on acquisition - Consideration paid 1,186

*After the acquisition of A/S “Ieguldijumu sabiedrība Astra Fondi” the Group has performed the fair value estimation of its assets. The valuation showed that at the date of this acquisition the Group had acquired the right to manage pension funds portfolio. This right was recognized as an intangible asset (Note 11).

From the date of the acquisition until 31 December 2006 the revenues and net profit of A/S “Ieguldijumu sabiedrība Astra Fondi” amounted to respectively LTL 157 thousand and LTL 64 thousand. The net cash inflow from acquisition was not significant. If the bussines combination had taken place at the beginning of the year, the renvenues and the profit of the Group would not be materially different.

Acquisition in 2005

On 22 September 2005, the Bank acquired 83.01% of the voting shares of Latvijas Krājbanka A/S. The fair value of identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of Latvijas Krājbanka A/S as at the date of acquisition were:

Fair value of net assets 78,042 Goodwill arising on acquisition - Consideration paid 78,042

The total consideration of the combination was LTL 78,042 thousand and was paid entirely in cash. The net cash inflow on acquisition was as follows:

Cash (paid) (78,042) Less: Cash 56,831 Cash equivalents 81,966 Cash and cash equivalents 138,797 Net cash inflow 60,755

The fair value adjustments at 31 December 2005 were provisional as the Group had sought an independent appraisal of the intangible assets owned by Latvijas Krājbanka A/S.

The appraisal of intangible assets was received in December 2006 and showed that the fair value of intangible assets at the date of acquisition was LTL 18,805 thousand, i.e. LTL 14,409 thousand compared to the provisional value recognised in the balance sheet of Latvijas Krājbanka A/S. The increase was caused by recognition of Latvijas Krājbanka brand name, non-contractual customer relationships and core deposit intangible.

29. Business Combination (cont’d)

Year 2005 comparative information has been restated to reflect this adjustment. The value of intangible assets was increased by LTL 14,409 thousand and deferred tax liability was recognised in amount of LTL 2,202 thousand (Note 12). There was no goodwill remaining after the restatement. The increased amortisation charge on intan- gible assets from the acquisition date in 2005 amounted to LTL 337 thousand.

From the date of the combination up untill 31 December 2005, Latvijas Krājbanka A/S contributed LTL 3,360 thousand to the net profit of the Group. If the combination had taken place at the beginning of the year, the profit of the Group would have been LTL 52,593 thousand, net interest income – LTL 122,434 thousand.

30. Segment Reporting

For the purposes of this analysis, the Group’s activities were divided into two main geographical segments: Lithuania (the Bank and its subsidiaries in Lithuania) and Latvia (subsidiaries in Latvia - Latvijas Krājbanka A/S, Krājinvestīcijas SIA and Ieguldijumu Sabiedrība Astra Fondi A/S).

31. Financial Risk Management

Management of risk is fundamental to the banking business and is an essential element of the Group’s opera- tions. The main financial risks inherent to the Group’s operations are those related to credit, liquidity and changes in interest and foreign exchange rates. A summary description of the Group’s risk management policies in relation to those risks follows.

Credit risk

The Group takes on exposure to credit risk which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay amounts in full when due. The Group structures the levels of credit risk by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted in relation to one borrower, or groups of borrowers, and to geographical and industry segments. Such risks are monitored on a recurring basis and subject to an annual or more frequent review.

The exposure to any one borrower including banks and brokers is further restricted by sublimates covering on and off-balance sheet exposures and daily delivery risk limits in relation to trading items such as forward foreign exchange contracts. Actual exposures against limits are monitored daily.

Exposure to credit risk is managed through regular analysis of the ability of borrowers and potential borrowers to meet interest and capital repayment obligations and by changing these lending limits where appropriate. Exposure to credit risk is also managed in part by obtaining collateral and corporate and personal guarantees.

Financial assets, bearing credit risk, comprise deposits and funds at banks and other credit and financial insti- tutions, loans to customers, overdraft facilities, bills of exchange, factoring, debt securities (except for the ones issued by the central banks or governments of the A group countries), prepayments and income, accrued for these financial assets. Total amount of such assets as of 31 December 2006 was LTL 3,742,650 thousand of the Group (as of 31 December 2005 – LTL 2,270,953 thousand).

31. Financial Risk Management (cont’d)

Market risk

The Group bears market risks. Market risks arise from open positions in interest rate, currency and equity products, all of which are exposed to general and specific market changes. The Group manages market risk through periodic estimation of potential losses that could arise from adverse changes in market conditions and estab- lishing and maintaining appropriate stop-loss limits and margin and collateral requirements.

Currency risk

The Group takes on exposure to effects of fluctuations in the prevailing foreign currency exchange rates on its financial position and cash flows.T he management sets limits on the level of exposure by currency and in total for both overnight and intra-day positions, which are monitored daily. The assets and liabilities of the Group in foreign currencies denominated in Litas according to the official exchange rate as of the year ends are presented below:

Interest rate risk

The Group takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market interest rates on its financial position and cash flows. Interest margins may increase as a result of such changes but may reduce or create losses in the event that unexpected changes arise.

31. Financial Risk Management (cont’d)

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk refers to the availability of sufficient funds to meet deposit withdrawals and other financial commit- ments associated with financial instruments as they actually fall due. In order to manage liquidity risk, the Group performs daily monitoring of future expected cash flows on clients’ and banking operations, which is a part of assets/liabilities management process. The Management Board sets limits on the minimum proportion of maturing funds available to meet deposit withdrawals and on the minimum level on interbank and other borrowing facilities that should be in place to cover withdrawals at unexpected levels of demand.

The following tables provide an analysis of banking assets and liabilities grouped on the basis of the remaining period from the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date.

32. Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of IAS 32 “Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation”. Fair value is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable willing parties on arm’s length conditions, other than in forced or liquidation sale. As no readily available market exists for a large part of the Group’s financial instruments, judgment is necessary in arriving at fair value, based on current economic conditions and the spe- cific risks attributable to the instrument.

The following methods and assumptions are used by the Group to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments:

Cash. Represents cash on hand which nominal amount approximates its fair value.

Balances with the Central Banks. The carrying amount approximates its fair value as these are current accounts at the Bank of Lithuania and Bank of Latvia.

Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss. The carrying amount approximates fair value of such investments as they are valued at market rates.

Held to Maturity Financial Assets. Fair value of held-to-maturity financial instruments amounted toLTL 143,877 thousand as 31 December 2006 (LTL 153,190 thousand 31 December 2005).

Amounts Due from and to Credit Institutions. For assets maturing within three months, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the relatively short- term maturity of these financial instruments. For longer-term deposits, due to the re-pricing of assets to the market interest rates, the interest rates applicable approximate market rates and, consequently, the fair value approximate the carrying amounts.

Loans to Customers. The estimate was made by discounting of scheduled future cash flows of the individual loans through the estimated maturity using prevailing market rates as of the respective year-end. Based on the estimates the fair value approximates the carrying amounts.

Amounts Due to Customers. For balances maturing within three months the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these financial instruments. For longer term fixed interest bearing deposits and other borrowings the estimated fair value is based on discounted cash flows using interest rates for new debts with similar remaining maturity. The fair value approximates the carrying amounts.

Debt Securities Issued. These amounts include securities with interest rates, which reflect market interest rates and, consequently, the fair value approximates the carrying amounts.

33. Related Party Transactions

In accordance with IAS 24 “Related Party Disclosures”, parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial or ope­ rational decisions. In considering each possible related party relationship, attention is directed to the substance of the relationship, not merely the legal form.

Related parties may enter into transactions which unrelated parties might not, and transactions between related parties may not be effected on the same terms, conditions and amounts as transactions between unrelated parties.

The volumes of related party transactions and their balances in 2006 and 2005 are as follows:
