ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.) 3.4 Material accounting policy information (cont’d.) (i) Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities (cont’d.) (c) Derecognition other than for substantial modification - Financial liabilities A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expired. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference between the carrying value of the original financial liability and the consideration paid is recognised in profit or loss. (j) Determination of fair value Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: - in the principal market for the asset or liability; or - in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. The Group and the Bank use valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. An analysis of fair values of financial instruments and further details as to how they are measured are provided in Note 52. For financial instruments measured at fair value, where available, quoted and observable market prices in an active market or dealer price quotations are used to measure fair value. These include listed equity securities and broker quotes from Bloomberg. 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D.) 3.4 Material accounting policy information (cont’d.) (k) Impairment of financial assets (i) Overview of the ECL principles The Group and the Bank adopt a forward-looking ECL approach. The Group and the Bank calculate and record an allowance for expected credit losses for all loans and other debt financial assets not held at FVTPL together with loan commitments contracts. Equity instruments are not subject to impairment. The ECL allowance is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the financial instruments (the lifetime expected credit loss or “LTECL”), unless there has been no significant increase in credit risk since origination, in which case, the allowance is based on the 12 months’ expected credit loss (“12mECL”) as outlined in Note 3.4(k)(ii). The 12mECL is the portion of LTECLs that represent the ECLs that result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date. Both LTECLs and 12mECLs are calculated on either an individual basis or a collective basis, depending on the nature of the underlying portfolio of financial instruments. The Group and the Bank have established a policy to perform an assessment, at the end of each reporting period, of whether a financial instrument’s credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, by considering the change in the risk of default occurring over the remaining life of the financial instrument. This is further explained in Note 51(a). General approach The Group and the Bank classify their loans or assets into Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3 and POCI, as described below: • Stage 1: When loans or assets are first recognised, the Group and the Bank recognise an allowance based on 12mECLs. Stage 1 loans or assets also include facilities where the credit risk has improved and the loan or the assets has been reclassified from Stage 2. • Stage 2: When a loan or an asset has shown a significant increase in credit risk (“SICR”) since origination, the Group and the Bank record an allowance for the LTECLs. Stage 2 loans or assets also include facilities, where the credit risk has improved and the loan has been reclassified from Stage 3. • Stage 3: Loans or assets considered as credit-impaired (as outlined in Note 51(a)). The Group and the Bank record an allowance for the LTECLs. • POCI assets are financial assets that are credit impaired on initial recognition. POCI assets are recorded at fair value at original recognition and interest income is subsequently recognised based on a creditadjusted EIR. ECLs are only recognised or released to the extent that there is a subsequent change in the expected credit losses. For financial assets for which the Group and the Bank have no reasonable expectations of recovering either the entire outstanding amount, or a proportion thereof, the gross carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced. This is considered a (partial) derecognition of the financial asset.
