  3. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT CORPORATE POLICY Al-Amanah Islamic Investment Bank of the Philippines (“AAIIBP” or “Amanah Islamic Bank”) is the only bank authorized to offer Islamic banking in the Philippines. AAIIBP is licensed as a universal bank and offers both Islamic and conventional banking services. MISSION STATEMENT To become a full Islamic Bank and afford Filipinos of the blessings and benefits of Islamic banking, financing, and investment. VISION STATEMENT To be the leading and choice Islamic financial institution providing alternative banking services in response to the emerging global Islamic markets and to promote and accelerate the socioeconomic developments of the Islamic communities in the Philippines by 2022. CORE VALUES • Adherence to Shari’ah Principles • Integrity, Excellence Competence and AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES (AAIIBP), formerly Philippine Amanah Bank, is the first and the only Islamic bank in the country. AAIIBP’s primary purpose under its charter is “to promote and accelerate the socioeconomic development of the Autonomous Region by performing banking, financing and investment operations and to establish and participate in agricultural, commercial and industrial ventures based on the Islamic concept of banking”. The Bank was first established as Philippine Amanah Bank in 1973 by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 264 through the initiative of then President Ferdinand Marcos. It was later on amended by Presidential Decree No. 542 in the year 1974 wherein it was directed to implement the Islamic concept of banking. Under this legislative fiat, the Bank was enjoined to pursue ethics in Islamic banking and finance such as the “no-interest” doctrine and the so-called two-tier silent partnership principle. However, since the clamor for conventional banking in the country was massive, the said directive was carried out only partially. With the signing of Republic Act No. 6848 in the year 1990, AAIIBP was granted an authorized capital stock of One billion pesos (P1,000,000,000) divided into ten million par value shares of One hundred pesos each. The Bank had developed primarily as an Islamic bank with the central importance of ‘Shari’ah Compliance’ for its various contracts. In the performance of its daily operations, the Bank not only ensured its adherence to the Philippine Banking Laws but also its conformity to Shari’ah. In 2007, the Development Bank of the Philippines’ (DBP) Board approved the acquisition of AAIIBP and took full control of it in 2008 by owning 99.9% of its total subscribed shares. In 2009, the Monetary Board approved the Bank's 5-year Rehabilitation Plan, which focused on four corporate strategies (4Rs) namely, Recapitalization, Restoration of Financial Viability, Reorganization and Reforms Institutionalization. Under the Rehabilitation Plan, AAIIBP is allowed to do both conventional and Islamic banking ad infinitum. Accordingly, DBP infused P1.0 billion capital to AAIIBP which marked as the partial completion of the recapitalization strategy. The AAIIBP functions as a subsidiary of DBP – a government owned bank. Operating as the only Bank that offers Islamic banking services in the Philippines, it provides deposit products, as well as commercial and investment banking services. It maintains its nine branches located in Cagayan de Oro, Cotabato, Davao, Jolo, Iligan, General Santos, Marawi, San Juan, and Zamboanga City. A business plan was created in 2018 to define and fix objectives and programs of the Bank towards maximization of the utilization of meager resources with the end view of reducing losses or at least breakeven over the 5-year period 2019-2023. 3
  4. 4 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO Greetings of peace for everyone . Year 2020 is the Covid-19 pandemic that stunned the whole world, especially the global banking and financial market, spinning in a spectrum of shock with daunting challenges as the global mobility halted if only to stay safe from that tiny virus. Fortunate for those with sophisticated connectivity and digital banking systems, they rendered the needed services which somehow became the world’s moonlight during such dark period. But, our little bank, the Al-Amanah Islamic Investment Bank of the Philippines (AAIIBP) do not have such facilities and, thus, most affected. In 2017, we started gearing towards full Islamic banking by piloting the newly enhanced and developed Islamic products of the Bank, particularly the Islamic Microfinance (IM) and Car Islamic Financing (CIF) products which highly contributed in the increase of deposit level of the Bank from 2016 to 2019 by over 117%, not to mention that the IM products have earned an annual profit of not less than 16% and the CIF was zero past due from 2018 to 2019. Year 2020 for AAIIBP was filled with ambitious but achievable strategic plan to start the 2019 AAIIBP’s Roadmap to Sustainability and Growth by piloting our General Islamic Investment Account (GIIA) through our investment window, primarily aiming to source out capital or funds for the Institutionalization of the first Islamic Microfinance Banking Window (IMBW) in the Philippines along with our Responsive Modernization Program. Unfortunately, pandemic happened which caused the swift decline of AAIIBP’s Capital Adequacy Rate (CAR) way below the threshold resulting in the inevitable suspension of the Islamic financing facilities of the Bank in October 2020. To recover thereto, we revised our Roadmap to Rehabilitation, Sustainability and Growth which aims the (1) Rehabilitation of AAIIBP through the Institutionalization of the IBMW and (2) its Transformation to full Islamic banking. The sudden plummet of AAIIBP’s CAR prompted us to submit to Department of Finance (DOF) Secretary Carlos Dominguez III our AAIIBP’s Financial Economic Recovery Program (AFERP), designed to address the crucial situation of the Bank. After our thorough presentation and explanation, the good Secretary directed the Development Bank of the Philippines, through its President Emmanuel G. Herbosa, to help AAIIBP address its must-needed financial assistance and in addressing its needed capitalization as well. By way of capital infusion, DBP infused an additional capital of PhP150Million to AAIIBP in June, 2021. Due to the perils of the pandemic, we had to revise our 2018 Roadmap to 2020 AAIIBP’s Roadmap to Rehabilitation, Sustainability and Growth. Since five months from our appointment to Office in March 2017, we have addressed and emphasized to our supervisors and regulators, included Congress, the must-needed sufficient capitalization of AAIIBP for its transformation to full Islamic banking so it can fully serve its mandate. Only with sufficient capital can AAIIBP flourish to its fullest vibrant capacity and serve its purpose pursuant to its mandate as an alternative banking system under its Charter (R.A. 6848), particularly its authority to take its role and participation in the socio-economic development of the nation, primarily the now Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). Nonetheless, we survived the covid year of 2020 as a financial institution. But if we continue to flourish in the coming years as such, we can look back to 2020 as the year we finally became a member of the Swift System which gave us the opportunity to connect with thousands of other banks worldwide. Through this network our Investment Banking Group was able to create deals with international banks that will continue to create income for Amanah Islamic Bank, without the need to use our own funds. To my mind, this was an upside of the very difficult year that was 2020. To our regulators, thank you for your unwavering support through your critical assessment that have guided us formulate reformative policies to ensure transparent, regular and smooth operation of the Bank. ALEX P. BANGCOLA Chairman and CEO

NET LOSS FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE The cumulative net loss for CY 2020 amounted to P86.07 M as compared to last year figure of P74.86 M. The increase in net loss can be attributed to the decrease in Gross Margin of P 11.37 M and the net decrease in operating expenses of P 0.16 M – P 2.86 increase in Personnel Cost and P 5.30 decrease in Other Administrative Expenses. 2020 ACTUAL VS TARGETS Income Total Gross Earnings for the year is reported at P25.08 M and is lower than the previous year’s earnings by P 11.09 M. Major contributor in the decrease in Gross Earnings is the restriction on loan releases due to the low Single Borrower’s Limit and depleting Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) therefore the lower profit on Islamic Financing and Conventional Loans. The Commission on RRP had decline also due to the decrease in interest rates imposed by BSP. The bank realized only sixty-three percent (63%) or (P 25.08 M) of its targeted Earnings for the year of (P 40.11 M).The P8.37M or 33% of the total earnings earned from Islamic Financing. Expenses The total operating expenses to date of P 109.87 M is below the annual budget of P 126.32M due to cost-savings from the training, travels and other expenses. Net Loss The actual net loss of P 86.07 M is higher than the projected net loss of P 84.71 M mainly because only 63% of the Target Earnings was realized, The Total Expenses is within budget.

  8. 8 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES HIGHLIGHTS OF MAJOR ACTIVITIES , CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY & STRATEGIC INITIATIVES, & CHALLENGES Al-Amanah Islamic Investment Bank of the Philippines (AIIBP) was created in 1990 through R.A.6848, replacing Philippine Amanah Bank, the purpose of which is to “to promote and accelerate the socio-economic development of the Autonomous Region by performing banking, financing and investment operations and to establish and participate in agricultural, commercial and industrial ventures based on the Islamic concept of banking”. Due to the lack of government regulations on Islamic Banking and the issue on undercapitalization, not to mention that it is the only Islamic Bank in the Philippines, AAIIBP has been struggling to fully operate under its mandate. Despite these challenges, we continued to strengthen the bank’s corporate governance and marketing strategies in order to be relevant in addressing economic and social problems primarily in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) which has always been the bank’s priority. Among the products developed by AAIIBP to participate in socio-economic development, financial inclusion and poverty alleviation are: 1. General Islamic Investment Account (GIIA) – This operates as a Mudarabah Account where the funder or investors become partners in pursuit of a specific economic activity or project. 2. Trust Waqf Facilities (TWF) – This operates as a Trust Fund with intention to generate income out of the Humanitarian Assistance Programs of AAIIBP by offering humanitarian Islamic Microfinance for the purpose of funding the Charitable Assistance Programs of the Bank including but not limited to scholarship program, health & medical assistance program, and women welfare assistance program. ORGANIZATIONAL QUALIFICATION Currently being the sole Islamic Bank in the Philippines, AAIIBP is the only financing institution empowered and authorized to offer Islamic banking products and services in the country. With the needed funding support, it has the full capacity to function according to its mandate and become an essential tool in fostering inclusive economic growth. Although it is restricted by its limited capital, it has built up its corporate governance policies and procedures. As a government-owned and controlled corporation, it is required to comply with all rules and regulations for banks intended to guide the bank with respect to its management, accounting and reporting. Essentially, AAIIBP is bounded by strict supervisory and regulatory requirements in the conduct of its operations. AAIIBP 2020 ROADMAP The AAIIBP 2020 Roadmap for Rehabilitation, Sustainability and Growth is aimed for the transformation of AAIIBP into full Islamic banking concomitant to its compelling rehabilitation including the following: Rehabilitation through the Institutionalization of the ⮚ First Islamic Microfinance window in the Philippines by AAIIBP for its essential and responsive participation in poverty alleviation program of the Government, primarily in BARMM and her similarly situated neighbors in Mindanao. Transformation of AAIIBP to Full Islamic Banking, ⮚ Financing and Investment to realize its significance as an economic vehicle for socio-economic development in pursuit to nation building. Participation of AAIIBP in the Development of ⮚ Takaful or Islamic Insurance in the Philippines to promote its promising potential role in national economic stability. ISLAMIC MICROFINANCE AAIIBP’s Islamic Microfinance was essentially crafted to afford financing assistance to small enterprises, merchants, farmers and fisher folks to establish or enhance their source of livelihood. It was carefully crafted to become efficient, relevant and responsive to the needs of the target beneficiaries [or clients], particularly to Muslim Filipinos in the BARMM and their similarly situated neighbours. The Institutionalization of Islamic Microfinance Window is the first phase of AAIIBP’s 2020 Roadmap to Sustainability and Growth. However, this phase shall require at least PhP3Billion funding. Since the Islamic Microfinance Window shall operate under the Humanitarian Assistance Program of AAIIBP (HAP), AAIIBP are looking for partners who may be interested to extend “financial grant” for the Institutionalization of the first Islamic Microfinance Banking Window in the Philippines. Once the IM Window, operating under the HAP, starts to generate income, it shall establish and support the AAIIBP’s Charitable Assistance Programs (CAP). GENERAL ISLAMIC INVESTMENT ACCOUNT (GIIA) AAIIBP’s GIIA is based on Islamic concept of Mudarabah which is partnership between two or more persons who put together their funds in pursuit of a business or economic activity with intention to share proportionately in the profit and loss. It is intended to pool funds from domestic and foreign investors to capitalize an asset-based or asset backed economic activity or project of the government or private person or entity for a definite period of time. On December 8, 2020, AAIIBP and its project partners signed a tripartite Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) at the Manila Hotel for the development of Waste to Energy (WTE) facility which will be piloted in Cagayan Economic Zone Authority. The WTE project will be outsourced through AIB’s General Islamic
  9. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT Investment Account . The AIB acts as conduit for the project proponent and the investor. In consonance to AIB’s mission to support green finance and participate in national socio-economic development, this project will benefit the Local Government Unit (LGU) of Cagayan as it will generate jobs in the area and it will generate income from the sales of energy such as biochar and feedstock derived from processed and converted waste. As the Philippine economy suffered harshly during the COVID19 pandemic, this project is timely because the economy is gradually opening and the government has prepared an economic recovery plan for various sectors including the Energy sector. AAIIBP SADQAH Under the leadership of Chairman & CEO Alex P. Bangcola and through the initiative of Chief Operating Officer/Legal Counsel Imelda Tarhata F. Macarambon, the officers and employees of the Almanah Islamic Bank raised funds out of their own salary to extend sadqah (charitable assistance) to students of Mindanao State University who were stranded inside its campus or areas were its Units are situated due to sudden Declaration State of Health Emergency by President Rodrigo Duterte on March 8, 2020, which placed the entire Nation under Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) or Lockdown. The sadqah (donated amount) for food and other basic provision to affected students was handed to MSU Crisis Management Committee on Covid 19 through MSU President Habib W. Macaayong at his Office in MSU Campus, Marawi City. 2020 ISLAMIC BANKING AND FINANCE TRAINING The Officers of Amanah Islamic Bank participated in a series of Islamic Banking Training for Bankers and other Stakeholders granted by the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) Knowledge and Support Technical Assistance on Islamic Finance for the Philippines. These trainings are in line with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas’ (BSP) thrust to promote Islamic Banking in the country as part of its financial inclusion agenda which were held in the BSP Headquarters in Manila on January 27-31 and February 6-7, 2020. The topics discussed are Foundations of Islamic Finances, Shari’ah Governance, Islamic Banking, Microfinance, Islamic Capital Markets, and the Foundations and Principles of Takaful. These insightful and highly educational topics were facilitated by the Islamic Finance Advisory and Assurance Services (IFAAS) Group. The Bank also tapped ADB for a possible exclusive training focused on Islamic product development for AAIIBP. 9
  10. 10 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES RISK MANAGEMENT Risk Management is an integral part of Bank operation , business planning and review cycle. Prior to the approval of Service Level Agreement (SLA), the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) is covering the risk management functions for Al-Amanah Islamic Investment Bank of the Philippines (AAIIBP). With the approval of the Bank’s Board of Directors, the Bank designated Mr. Oliver E. Saniano as the Center Person for Risk Management function who gathers all the data for submission to the DBP Enterprise Risk Management Department thru Ms. Carla Cristina M. Capuno of DBP’s Market Risk Management Department. Taking and managing risk is vital to the Bank. The risk management framework sets out how the bank organizes and applies its risk management practices to ensure that all activities are conducted in line with the principles and limits mandated by the management. Risk Philosophy c. The Bank’s risk philosophy sets the tone on how the Bank understands risk and its management as follows: d. e. “The Al-Amanah Islamic Investment Bank of the Philippines identifies, understands, measures and controls the different risks inherent in all aspects of its operation ensuring adequate return on the capital that is at risk. Risk Management is applicable to all employees, all levels of management and all branches and subsidiaries and affiliates of the Bank.” The continuous process is integrated into business and decision-making processes which involve the following: a. b. Risk Identification: identifying risks Risk Assessment: assessing potential consequences and likelihood of risks Risk Measurement: evaluating the risk level, control gaps and priorities Risk Control: developing control, and Risk Monitoring: mitigation plans, monitor the potential changes of risks. Assessment of the probability or likelihood of the risk event actually occurring is established giving due consideration to the effectiveness of existing control measures. Score Frequency 1 Improbable. Rare 2 Unlikely 3 Possible 4 Likely 5 Certain Risk Mission “AAIIBP commits to develop a risk/return consciousness in the Bank with appropriate risk management strategies geared towards loss prevention or minimization to preserve capital and ensure adequate return on capital.” Key Functions in a Risk Process The following are the three (3) key functions in a risk process vis-à-vis respective roles: 1. Front Office or the Risk-Taking Personnel (RTP) - Initiates and is directly accountable for all risks taken with appropriate approval. 2. Middle Office or the Risk Management Group (RM) - A separate and independent function with no risk-taking accountability that serves as a liaison to help the RTP obtain approval. 3. Risk Compliance and Control (RCC) - Performs the important day-to-day oversight of actual risks against approved limits and generates reports. It functions separately and independently from the risk takers. The function may be done suitably by the Operations, Financial Control and /or Audit Units. Description Occurrence Highly unlikely, but it may occur in exceptional circumstances. Not expected, but there’s a slight possibility it may occur at some time. The event might occur at some time as this has manifested itself occasionally in the Bank and/or similar institutions. There is a strong possibility the event will occur as there is a history of frequent occurrence in the Bank and/or similar institutions. Very likely. The event is expected to occur in most circumstances as there is a history of regular occurrence in the Bank and/or similar institutions. once or no incidence in a year 2 to 4 times a year 3 to 4 times in a quarter several times in a month several times in a day

  12. 12 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES The Risk rating Matrix or “Heat Map” has been adopted for the Bank in which potential risks are ranked as Low, Medium, High, and Extreme. There were no changes in the parameters in the Risk Rating Matrix, and such parameters were aligned with those for DBP. This is as follows: Facing a wide range of risks which demand continuous and close attention by management, the Bank is currently formulating a Contingency Funding Plan (CFP) to establish procedures that will ensure the liquidity of the bank is properly managed in a stress or crisis situation. The contingency funding plan will address AAIIBP’s strategy for handling liquidity crisis. In line with the continuing implementation of an enterprise-wide risk management for the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), the DBP Trust & Subsidiaries Risk Unit of the Market Risk Management Department (MRMD) and the designated representatives from the Al-Amanah Islamic Investment Bank of the Philippines (AAIIBP) conduct monthly risk monitoring on the subsidiaries’ respective risk exposures. Prioritizing Risks The purpose of prioritizing the risk is to determine the level of action needed for the identified and assessed risks.

This trend was due to the rise in past due levels from PHP26.71 Million to PHP44.93 Million, coupled by the gradual decline in total portfolio from PHP248.06 Million to PHP190.41 Million. Past due level must be closely monitored as more businesses and individuals face difficulty in their finances and capacity to pay during this pandemic. 33.43% 21.25% 14.58% 7.58% 6.10% Real Estate Activities 5.91% Transport and Storage 3.67% Manufacturing 3.38% Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Administrative and Support Service Activities Information and Communication 1.85% Human Health and Social Work Activities Accommodation and Food Service Activities 0.61% 0.71% 0.67% 0.26% Meanwhile, exposures were all in current status as of monthend December, except for PHP40.78 Million in Wholesale and Retail Trade, PHP2.11 Million from Manufacturing, and PHP2.03 Million in Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing.

  14. 14 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES C . OPERATIONAL RISK Operational Loss Monitoring There were no loss events reported for January and February 2020. For the months of March to December 2020, Cagayan de Oro branch reported the effects of COVID-19 pandemic to bank operations. One effect was shortened banking hours resulting to limited service and lesser opportunity to accept deposits. Another effect was risky work environment, which would be compensated by hazard pay given to the employees. A loss event happened on June 22, 2020 when a fire broke out on the same branch, involving non-bank personnel. Said event resulted to a temporary bank holiday as the incident hampered the branch’s operations. The branch resumed its operations on July 22, 2020. Risk and Control Self-Assessment As part of groupwide operational risk management of the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), AAIIBP is required to accomplish the risk and control self-assessment (RCSA). AAIIBP’s final 2019 RCSA, together with the RCSAs of DBP business units, was approved by DBP Board of Directors on April 1, 2020. Based on the 2019 RCSA, AAIIBP has 34 business processes, which were evaluated based on seven operational risk types, resulting to the following risk levels: Low – 146 and Medium – 71. Business processes classified as medium risk are listed below. To further mitigate risks from these processes, AAIIBP established Risk Treatment Plan (RTP) for these risks. • • • • • • • • • • • Tellering Cashiering Accounting/Bookkeeping Servicing of Disbursements New Accounts Opening Loan Documentation, including preparation of Documentation-Related Legal Opinion, Formal Legal Advice, Review and/or Preparation of Contracts and/or Documents Litigation Matters (Monitoring of Legal Cases, Processing of Request for Legal Action, including Administrative Investigation) Branch Review Preparation and submission of Regulatory Reports (COA/BSP/etc.) Preparation and Submission of Management Reports to BOD, Committees and other internal departments/units Overall liquidity position and compliance of BSP reserve requirements • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Processing of Outgoing Fund Transfer and inward and outward RTGS through the BSP PhilPass Browser Processing, monitoring and reporting of Remittance Transactions from PESONet System and DBP Remittance System (TCS) Recruitment and hiring Consolidation of Various Reports Anti-Money Laundering Program Compilation of Relevant Laws and Dissemination of Regulatory Facts and Developments Issuance of New Regulations for Compliance Accurate recognition of daily transactions Processing of payments (including payroll) Portfolio Generation - Loans and Financing Data Cleansing of Customer Information File (CIF) Systems Development, Enhancement, and Maintenance Third Party Software Developed Processing of Incident and Service Requests Business Continuity Management During the period of the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ), AAIIBP activated its business continuity plan and created a team that would assess the bank’s status during the duration of the pandemic. The San Juan branch, which was the most affected branch, implemented its skeletal operation with shortened banking hours and limited number of workdays in a week. Likewise, work from home arrangement was implemented for the selected areas of operations of the bank. Submission of daily accomplishment reports was also required from each unit to ensure that said unit and its personnel were still able to perform their respective functions. For the work environment, the branch head requested the building administrator to have the branch and executive office to be disinfected. Safety protocols, such as temperature checks for all persons entering the bank, were observed. AAIIBP is still in skeletal force to properly observe social and physical distancing. D. LIQUIDITY RISK Maximum Cumulative Outflow AAIIBP posted net cumulative inflow of PHP6.21 Million as of month-end December, notably lower than January’s PHP84.66 Million. Significant inflows were expected from (1) cash and due from banks, (2) loans and discounts, (3) held to maturity investments and (4) other assets in the “Demand”, “2 to 3 months”, “4 to 5 months”, and from “11 to 12 months” up to “4 to 5 years” time bands. Outflows would mainly come from deposits from “Demand” up to “4 to 5 months” and “Over 5
  15. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT years ” time bands. Net cumulative outflows were noted from “Day 14” to “3 to 4 years” time bands. While the Islamic bank showed overall net cumulative inflow, the net cumulative cashflow for time bands “Demand up to 12 months” and “Over 5 years” showed notable decline from June 2017 to December 2020. Net cumulative cashflow for “Demand up to 12 months” declined from net inflow of PHP123.81 Million to net outflow of PHP137.97 Million, while for “Over 5 years” time band, it decreased from net inflow of PHP281.01 Million to PHP6.21 Million. This significant decline in net cumulative cashflow could be attributed to the decrease in outstanding conventional loans from PHP140.61 Million in June 2017 to PHP41.64 Million in December 2020, estimated five-month retention for demand and savings deposits, and to the continued losses generated by the Islamic bank. The Net Stable Funding Ration (NSFR), which complements the LCR, is the ratio of available stable funding (ASF) to required stable funding (RSF). This ratio promotes long- term resilience of the bank against liquidity risk, such that the bank will maintain stable funding profile in relation to the composition of its assets and off-balance sheet activities. From January to December 2020, NSFR ranged from 200% to 247%, which complies the BSP requirement of 100%. As of December 31, 2020, AAIIBP reported 243% NSFR, where ASF was PHP519.80 Million and RSF was PHP214.08 Million, against BSP requirement of 100%. Financial Ratios Regulatory Liquidity Ratios The Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) is the ratio of the bank’s high-quality liquid assets (HQLA) to its total net cash outflows. This ratio measures the short-term resilience of the bank’s liquidity profile over a thirty-calendar day horizon, such that the bank will have adequate level of unencumbered HQLA, comprised of cash or assets that can be converted to cash at little or no loss of value, to offset net cash outflows under a liquidity stress scenario. From January to December 2020, AAIIBP’s LCR complies with BSP’s requirement of 100%, with highest ratio being recorded on June at 1,258.84%. Lowest LCR was recorded in December 2020 at 454.31%, where HQLA was PHP412.10 Million and net cash outflows were PHP90.71 Million. AAIIBP’s posted net loss of PHP8.83 Million as of month-end December 2020. Said negative bottom-line in annualized terms resulted to return on total equity of -77.50%. To address its continued losses, AAIIBP is currently working on their roadmap, which includes a recapitalization plan that aims to identify sources of funds that will be used for the bank’s sustainability and growth. E. RISK ASSESSMENT UNDER COVID-19 SCENARIO The BSP required DBP to submit an Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP) Ancillary Document which presents the assessment of risks and their impact to capital under the COVID-19 scenario. The AAIIBP Working Group reassessed two risks as high risk under the pandemic scenario: Borrower Risk and Planning and Execution Risk. Meanwhile, Funding Liquidity Risk, Recruiting and Retention Risk, and Business Risk are maintained as high risks for the initial ICAAP submission and for the Ancillary Document. Borrower Risk is reassessed to high risk from medium risk. Due to the pandemic, many businesses and individuals face difficulty with their finances. Borrowers of AAIIBP are mostly comprised of small businesses and individuals, who are vulnerable to the economic impact of the pandemic. Past due ratio has gradually increased during the pandemic relative to yearend 2019 figure. To address this high risk, there is constant monitoring of the Branch Heads and their respective Account 15
  16. 16 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES Officers . Likewise, AAIIBP maintains open communication with the clients, especially those who seem to be affected by the pandemic. COMPLIANCE SYSTEM AND ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING Planning and Execution Risk is also reassessed to high risk from medium risk. Due to COVID-19, there are disruptions in the usual business operations, which would affect the launch of products and programs, such as the fund generating Waqf and AAIIBP’s Road Map toward full Islamic banking, and the accomplishment of targets for the year. To address this risk, AAIIBP’s Road Map was revised and recently approved by the AAIIBP Board of Directors. There is also the tie-up initiated with Asian Development Bank (ADB) through Islamic Finance Advisory and Assurance Services (IFAAS) for an online seminar on Product Development. The Bank’s compliance system is implemented to mitigate business risks that erode the bank’s franchise value and to strengthen the Bank’s internal control towards effective delivery of its compliance functions. The compliance system as approved by the Board of Directors and effectively implemented by Senior Management shall be responsive to the regulatory requirements from existing laws and regulatory bodies to promote high standard and acceptable practices of good governance. Funding Liquidity Risk is maintained as high risk as the Islamic bank posted higher net outflow for “Demand up to 12 months” time band and lower net inflow for “Over 5 years” time band. The decline in net cumulative cashflow could be attributed to the decline in loan portfolio and continued losses. To address this high risk, AAIIBP is continuously implementing austerity measures. It is presently operating below its projected expenses. Likewise, different meetings with various agencies and institutions were made for possible funding, investment and projects. AAIIBP had a meeting with the Department of Finance for possible projects and other source of funds, aside from the request that was sent by AAIIBP for capital infusion. The AAIIBP Management also requested the approval of the Board of the Directors to allow the Islamic bank to sell its stocks. Lastly, the revised Road Map was approved by the Board of Directors on October 22, 2020. Recruiting and Retention Risk is maintained as high risk since the hiring process, especially exams and interviews, were postponed due to the implementation of the community quarantine. To address this risk, the Human Resource Management Department (HRMD) requested the IT Department to digitize the examination documents, but the applicants must still go to any of the branches of AAIIBP. The officer in the branch will assist HRMD personnel during the examination. Business Risk is maintained as high risk, as the capitalization of AAIIBP has been put on hold by DBP as the parent bank. On the part of AAIIBP, several project proposals, discussions and meetings with different agencies and institutions were made beginning last year for possible capitalization and/or investments. These initiatives include proposal for loans or investment from DBP; tie-up with Department of Trade and Industry; discussion with Department of Finance for possible projects and other sources of funds aside from the request for capital infusion; and meetings with ADB and IFAAS. AAIIBP had also considered the sale of its stocks. Compliance System Although AAIIBP is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), it has its own Chief Compliance Officer. However, coordinated working relationship with the DBP’s Chief Compliance Officer is established for a group-wide compliance policy and implementation. The Compliance Office promotes compliance awareness among officers and staff through dissemination of regulatory issuances, regular monitoring and assessment of the bank’s fulfillment of regulatory responsibilities. The Bank’s Compliance program is periodically updated to strengthen implementation of a more robust, dynamically responsive compliance system, taking into consideration all banking and consumer laws and regulations. Anti-Money Laundering In compliance with Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas’ prescribed Money Laundering and terrorist financing prevention program (MLPP), the Bank’s MLPP incorporates legal and regulatory updates of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Combating the Financing of terrorism (CFT) policies and procedures. The Bank constantly reviews and updates the MLPP to ensure compliance with the latest legislative and policies on AML and CFT. The bank continuously conducts Annual Training for updates on new AML/CFT policies and regulations, for this year the training was conducted through Virtual/Online Training.

  37. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT RETIREMENT AND SUCCESSION POLICY Leadership is essential in providing direction in attaining the thrusts of an organization especially in the public sector where delivery of continuous public service is crucial . Leadership does not just happen nor exercised by anyone at any given time; it takes years to groom an effective leader. In the hierarchy of positions or in a table of organization, leaders are identified in the ranks of supervisors, managers, executives. Should there be a vacancy in these ranks, when someone retires or is separated from the Bank, important questions arise: Who succeeds? Is the successor qualified to assume the duties of subject positions? Is the successor ready? The matter of succession planning then becomes an imperative. The Bank, in its efforts to establish and sustain sound operational business strategy aims to: 1. To prepare the employee who will take the role of a manager or a leader in the organization by providing appropriate competencies and experiences to ensure continuity of management. 2. To systematically enable the Management in identifying talented employees and provide development opportunities to fill key or critical organizational positions. 3. To create a match between the organization’s future needs and the qualifications of a potential candidate for succession. 4. To serve as an interface between the human resource functions and the strategic direction of the Management. Succession Policy is created and a Succession Plan Matrix is established that being updated whenever necessary. Role of Management and Employees in Succession Plan To ensure the success of the Succession Plan, support and cooperation of management and employees are indispensable. The following are highly expected from the Management and Employees: 1. Personal involvement of senior leaders. 2. Accountability of senior leaders for growing leaders. 3. Commitment of employees toward self-development. 4. Linkage between strategic planning and talent investment in the future. 5. Reliable workforce data and analysis. 6. Emphasis on leadership competencies as basis for selection and development. 7. Use of deep selection in process regardless of rank and position. 8. Prioritization for identification and development of a pool of talent. With all these in place, the Bank believes that proper planning and learning and development interventions, the pool of highly technical staff, supervisors, managers, and executives can succeed the vacated positions. REMUNERATIONS POLICY Section 1 of Executive Order No. 24, series of 2011 states: “Cognizant of the role of the Board of Directors/Trustees as steward of the corporation it serves and caretaker of the best interests of the people who are the true shareholders of the corporation, the rationalization of the compensation for members of the Board of Directors/Trustees in GOCCs shall be anchored on the following policy considerations of the State: a) Promote transparency, accountability, and prudence in government spending; b) Enable the GOCCs to perform their mandated developmental, social, commercial, proprietary, and regulatory functions, and respond to the demands for an effective and efficient delivery of essential public services, thereby significantly contribute to national development; c) Strengthen the overall governance and management of GOCCs by, among others, attracting highly qualified and competent individuals; d) Improve the monitoring, supervision, and evaluation of the management and operations of GOCCs; and e) Provide for the standardization and rationalization of the compensation of members of the Board of Directors/Trustees that is reasonable, justifiable, and appropriate to prevent abuses in the grant of salaries, per diems, allowances, bonuses, incentives, and other benefits.” The Bank nonetheless complies with the provisions contained in the Executive Order No. 24, series of 2011, which governs the compensation and reimbursable expenses of the members of the Board of Directors. 37

On February 6, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), in accordance with DBP Board Resolution No. 0050 series of 2008 approved the acquisition of AAIIBP. On October 30, 2008, DBP completed the acquisition of the shareholdings of the National Government, Privatization and Management Office, Social Security System and Government Service Insurance System, thereby, controlling up to 99.53 per cent of issued, subscribed and paid-up capital of AAIIBP. DBP took full control of AAIIBP’s operations on July 16, 2008, with the deployment of seconded DBP employees in the nine Branches and interlocking officers in the Metro Manila Executive Office. With the ratification of the Bangsamoro Organic Law (BOL) on January 21, 2019, the Bank endorsed the following: a. Inclusion of the AAIIBP as the government depository bank of the Bangsamoro territories. AAIIBP can deliver Islamic banking and financing services that are suitable and responsive to the Bangsamoro needs and requirements in attaining economic independence. b. Prioritizing AAIIBP charter amendment. The two main features of the draft amendment include: (1) additional capitalization of the Bank and, (2) the duty to select and appoint qualified administrator (President/CEO) of the Bank. If sufficiently capitalized and ran by qualified people, the Bank can finance developmental projects of the government by issuing sukuk (Islamic bonds) and also by instituting and running its own takkaful (Islamic insurance). These two Islamic financial facilities are the main requirements of giant investors from Muslim countries and have contributed to the fast economic growth of some parts in Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, China, Russia, United States of America (USA), United Kingdom (UK) and some parts in Europe. AAIIBP has eight branches in Mindanao, namely, Zamboanga, Jolo, Cagayan de Oro, Iligan, Marawi, Davao, General Santos and Cotabato branches and one branch in San Juan City with its Metro Manila Executive Office. As at December 31, 2020, the Bank has 99 employees (CY 2019 – 97). The Bank’s financial statements have been approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on February 4, 2021. 2. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES 2.1. New standards and amendments issued and effective from January 1, 2020 Amendments to PFRS 3 Business Combinations – Definition of a Business. The amendments clarify that to be considered a • business, an acquired set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. It narrows the definitions of a business and of outputs by focusing on goods and services provided to customers and by removing the reference to an ability to reduce costs. In addition, it provides guidance and illustrative examples to help entities assess whether a substantive process has been acquired and remove the assessment of whether market participants are capable of replacing any missing inputs or processes and continuing to produce outputs. The amendment also 49
  50. 50 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES adds an optional concentration test that permits a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of activities and assets is not a business . The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020, with earlier application permitted. The amendments had no material impact on the disclosures and amounts recognized on the Bank’s financial statements. Amendments to PFRS 9 Financial Instruments, PAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and PFRS 7 • Financial Instruments: Disclosures – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform. The amendment states: - entities would continue to apply certain hedge accounting requirements assuming that the interest rate benchmark on which the hedged cash flows and cash flows from the hedging instrument are based will not be altered as a result of interest rate benchmark reform; are mandatory for all hedging relationships that are directly affected by the interest rate benchmark reform; are not intended to provide relief from any other consequences arising from interest rate benchmark reform (if a hedging relationship no longer meets the requirements for hedge accounting for reasons other than those specified by the amendments, discontinuation of hedge accounting is required); and require specific disclosures about the extent to which the entities’ hedging relationships are affected by the amendments. The application of this amendment had no material impact on the Bank’s financial statements. Amendment to PFRS 16 Leases – Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions. The amendment provides lessees with an exemption • from assessing whether a COVID-19-related rent concession is a lease modification. The application of this amendment had no material impact on the Bank’s financial statements. Amendments to PAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and Amendment to PAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in • Accounting Estimates and Errors – Definition of Material. The amendments clarify that information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general-purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity. The amendments will not have an impact on the disclosures and amounts recognized on the Bank’s financial statements. 2.2. New standards effective after the reporting period ended December31, 2020. The standards and interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective as of December 31, 2020 are listed below: Amendments to PFRS 9 Financial Instruments, PAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, PFRS 7 • Financial Instruments: Disclosures, PFRS 4 Insurance Contracts and PFRS 16 Leases – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2.The amendments relate to the modification of financial assets, financial liabilities and lease liabilities, specific hedge accounting requirements, and disclosure requirements applying PFRS 7 to accompany the amendments regarding modifications and hedge accounting. Management is currently assessing the impact of this new standard in its financial statements. Amendments to PFRS 3 Business Combination – Reference to the Conceptual Framework (effective January 1, 2022). The • amendments update an outdated reference to the Conceptual Framework in IFRS 3 without significantly changing the requirements in the standard as follows: update PFRS 3 so that it refers to the 2018 Conceptual Framework instead of the 1989 Framework; add to PFRS 3 a requirement that, for transactions and other events within the scope of PAS 37 or IFRIC 21, an acquirer applies PAS 37 or IFRIC 21 (instead of the Conceptual Framework) to identify the liabilities it has assumed in a business combination; and add to PFRS 3 an explicit statement that an acquirer does not recognise contingent assets acquired in a business combination. Management is currently assessing the impact of this new standard in its financial statements. Amendments to PAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use (effective for annual periods • beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with early application permitted). The amendments prohibit deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from selling items produced while bringing that asset to the location and condition necessary
  51. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management . Instead, an entity recognises the proceeds from selling such items, and the cost of producing those items, in profit or loss. Management is currently assessing the impact of this new standard in its financial statements. Amendments to PAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets – Onerous Contracts - Cost of Fulfilling a • Contract (effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with early application permitted). The amendments specify that the ‘cost of fulfilling’ a contract comprises the ‘costs that relate directly to the contract’. Costs that relate directly to a contract can either be incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (examples would be direct labor, materials) or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts (an example would be the allocation of the depreciation charge for an item of property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling the contract). The application of this amendment had no impact on the Bank’s financial statements. • Annual Improvements to PFRS Standards 2018–2020 (effective January*1,2022) PFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards – Subsidiary as a first-time adopter. The amendment permits a subsidiary that applies paragraph D16(a) of PFRS 1 to measure cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by its parent, based on the parent’s date of transition to PFRSs. PFRS 9 Financial Instruments – Fees in the ‘10 per cent’ test for derecognition of financial liabilities. The amendment clarifies which fees an entity includes when it applies the ‘10 per cent’ test in paragraph B3.3.6 of PFRS 9 in assessing whether to derecognise a financial liability. An entity includes only fees paid or received between the entity (the borrower) and the lender, including fees paid or received by either the entity or the lender on the other’s behalf. PFRS 16 Leases – Lease incentives. The amendment to Illustrative Example 13 accompanying PFRS 16 removes from the example the illustration of the reimbursement of leasehold improvements by the lessor in order to resolve any potential confusion regarding the treatment of lease incentives that might arise because of how lease incentives are illustrated in that example. PAS 41 Agriculture – Taxation in fair value measurements. The amendment removes the requirement in paragraph 22 of PAS 41 for entities to exclude taxation cash flows when measuring the fair value of a biological asset using a present value technique. This will ensure consistency with the requirements in PFRS 13. Management is currently assessing the impact of these amendments in its financial statements. Amendments to PFRS 4 Insurance Contracts – Extension of the Temporary Exemption from Applying PFRS 9. The • amendment changes the fixed expiry date for the temporary exemption in PFRS 4 Insurance Contracts from applying PFRS 9 Financial Instruments, so that entities would be required to apply PFRS 9 for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The new standard will not have an impact on the disclosures and amounts recognized on the Bank’s financial statements. PFRS 17 Insurance Contracts. The new standard establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and • disclosure of insurance contracts, including reinsurance contracts held and investment contracts with discretionary participation features issued. The objective of the standard is to ensure that entities provide relevant information in a way that faithfully represents those contracts. This information gives a basis for users of financial statements to assess the effect that contracts within the scope of the standard have on the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The new standard will not have an impact on the disclosures and amounts recognized on the Bank’s financial statements. Amendments to PAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (effective • for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 deferred to January 1, 2023). The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current. Management is currently assessing the impact of this new standard in its financial statements. 51
  52. 52 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES 3 . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 3.1. Basis of financial statement preparation The Bank’s financial statements comprise the statements of financial position, statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in equity, statements of cash flows and the notes to financial statements. The financial statements of the Bank reflect the combined financial transactions of the Makati Executive Office and its nine branches nationwide. Based on the preference of clients, branches have been organized to adopt both the Islamic and Conventional banking systems. The financial statements are presented in Philippine Peso, the Bank’s functional currency. These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, unless otherwise stated. 3.2. Statement of compliance The Bank’s financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRSs)/Philippine Accounting Standards (PASs). 3.3. Recognition of interest income 3.3.1. The effective interest rate method Under PFRS 9, interest income is recorded using the effective interest method for all financial instruments. The effective interest rate (EIR) is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. The EIR (and therefore, the amortised cost of the asset) is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition, fees and costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The Bank recognizes interest income using a rate of return that represents the best estimate of a constant rate of return over the expected life of the loan. Hence, it recognizes the effect of potentially different interest rates charged at various stages, and other characteristics of the product life cycle (including prepayments, penalty interest and charges). If expectations regarding the cash flows on the financial asset are revised for reasons other than credit risk, the adjustment is booked as a positive or negative adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset in the statement of financial position with an increase or reduction in interest income. The adjustment is subsequently amortised through profit or loss. 3.3.2. Interest and similar income The Bank calculates interest income by applying the EIR to the gross carrying amount of financial assets other than credit-impaired assets. When a financial asset becomes credit-impaired and is, therefore, regarded as ‘Stage 3’, the Bank calculates interest income by applying the EIR to the net amortised cost of the financial asset. If the financial assets cures and is no longer credit-impaired, the Bank reverts to calculating interest income on a gross basis. For Purchased or Originated Credit Impaired (POCI) financial assets, the Bank calculates interest income by calculating the creditadjusted EIR and applying that rate to the amortised cost of the asset. The credit-adjusted EIR is the interest rate that, at original recognition, discounts the estimated future cash flows (including credit losses) to the amortised cost of the POCI financial assets. In addition, the Bank presents income from Islamic financing separately from interest income from conventional loans and credit accommodations. 3.4. Financial assets and financial liabilities 3.4.1. Date of recognition Financial assets and liabilities, with the exception of loans and receivables and balances due to customers, are initially recognized on the settlement date, that is, the date that the Bank becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. This includes regular way trades, purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame generally established by regulation
  53. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT or convention in the market place . Loans and receivables are recognized when funds are transferred to the customers’ accounts. The Bank recognizes balances due to customers when funds are transferred to the Bank. 3.4.2. Initial recognition The classification of financial instruments at initial recognition depends on their contractual terms and the business model for managing the instruments. Financial instruments are initially measured at their fair value, except in the case of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL), transaction costs are added to, or subtracted from, this amount. Trade receivables are measured at the transaction price. When the fair value of financial instruments at initial recognition differs from the transaction price, the Bank accounts for the Day 1 profit or loss, as described below. 3.4.3. Day 1 profit or loss When the transaction price of the instrument differs from the fair value at origination and the fair value is based on a valuation technique using only inputs observable in market transactions, the Bank recognizes the difference between the transaction price and fair value in profit or loss. In those cases where fair value is based on models for which some of the inputs are not observable, the difference between the transaction price and the fair value is deferred and is only recognized in profit or loss when the inputs become observable, or when the instrument is derecognized. 3.4.4. Measurement categories of financial assets and liabilities The Bank classifies all of its financial assets based on the business model for managing the assets and the asset’s contractual terms, measured at either: (a) amortised cost; (b) Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI); or (c) FVTPL. 3.5. Financial assets and liabilities 3.5.1. Cash in banks, Loans and receivables, Financial investments at amortised cost The Bank only measures Cash in banks, Loans and receivables and other financial investments at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met: The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual • cash flows; and The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and • interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. The details of these conditions are outlined below. 3.5.1.1. Business model assessment The Bank determines its business model at the level that best reflects how it manages groups of financial assets to achieve its business objective. The Bank’s business model is not assessed on an instrument-by-instrument basis, but at a higher level of aggregated portfolios and is based on observable factors such as: How the performance of the business model and the financial assets held within that business model are evaluated and • reported to the Bank’s key management personnel; The risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and, in • particular, the way those risks are managed; How managers of the business are compensated (for example, whether the compensation is based on the fair value of the • financial assets managed or on the contractual cash flows collected); and The expected frequency, value and timing of sales are also important aspects of the Bank’s assessment. • The business model assessment is based on reasonably expected scenarios without taking ‘worst case’ or ‘stress case’ scenarios into account. If cash flows after initial recognition are realized in a way that is different from the Bank’s original expectations, the Bank does not change the classification of the remaining financial assets held in that business model, but incorporates such information when assessing newly originated or newly purchased financial assets going forward. 53
  54. 54 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES 3 .5.1.2. The SPPI test The Bank assesses the contractual terms of financial assets to identify whether they meet the SPPI test. ‘Principal’ for the purpose of this test is defined as the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition and may change over the life of the financial asset (for example, if there are repayments of principal or amortisation of the premium/discount). The most significant elements of interest within a lending arrangement are typically the consideration for the time value of money and credit risk. To make the SPPI assessment, the Bank applies judgment and considers relevant factors such as the currency in which the financial asset is denominated, and the period for which the interest rate is set. In contrast, contractual terms that introduce a more than de minimis exposure to risks or volatility in the contractual cash flows that are unrelated to a basic lending arrangement do not give rise to contractual cash flows that are SPPI on the amount outstanding. In such cases, the financial asset is required to be measured at FVTPL. 3.5.2. Debt instruments at FVOCI The Bank applies the new category under PFRS 9 of debt instruments measured at FVOCI when both of the following conditions are met: The instrument is held within a business model, the objective of which is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows • and selling financial assets The contractual terms of the financial asset meet the SPPI test • These instruments largely comprise assets that had previously been classified as Available for Sale(AFS)financial assets under PAS 39. FVOCI debt instruments are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising due to changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI). Interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost. Where the Bank holds more than one investment in the same security, they are deemed to be disposed of on a first-in first-out basis. On derecognition, cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in OCI are reclassified from OCI to profit or loss. 3.5.3. Equity instruments at FVOCI Upon initial recognition, the Bank occasionally elects to classify irrevocably some of its equity investments as equity instruments at FVOCI when they meet the definition of “equity” under PAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation, and are not held for trading. Such classification is determined on an instrument-by- instrument basis. Gains and losses on these equity instruments are never recycled to profit or loss. Dividends are recognized in profit or loss as “Other non-operating income” when the right of the payment has been established, except when the Bank benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of the instrument, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI. Equity instruments at FVOCI are not subject to an impairment assessment. All equity securities of the Bank are irrevocably designated at FVOCI. 3.5.4. Islamic financing Islamic Financing represents financing contracts with customers consisted mainly of: Al-Ijarah Muntahia Bittamleek. This type of financing is a lease whereby the legal title of the leased asset passes at the end • of the Ijarah (lease term), provided that all Ijarah installments are settled. As a policy, the assets under the Ijarah Muntahia Bitamleek are initially recognized at cost. Upon leasing of the asset, the Bank records the transaction as Islamic Financing – Ijarah Muntahia Bittamleek, which is essentially comprised cost of the asset and the unearned income or profit margin from the related financing. Income is recognized upon periodic payment of the customer.
  55. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT Al-Bai Bitthaman Ajil (BBA). BBA financing is an Islamic lending product adopted by the Bank in 1992. This form of financing • is given through a deferred payment scheme that includes the principal plus one year markup which was recorded as Unearned Income. Income is recognized upon actual collection. Al-Bai Bitthaman Ajil (BBA) – ROPA investment. The BBA-ROPA facility was adopted as a disposal medium for the • conversion of the Bank’s existing acquired assets through sale on installment under a settlement plan ranging from one to three years with a mandatory down payment of 15 per cent plus two percent one time service charge of the agreed selling price. The installment payments are due monthly according to an approved amortisation schedule pursuant to the terms of the BBA-ROPA agreement. Transactions are accounted for like the conventional sales contract receivable in accordance with the accounting entries approved on July 29, 1998 by the Director of the Department of Commercial Banks of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, as amended. Al-Murabahah. This type of financing follows the principle under which the fund-owner purchases the goods or assets required • by the fund-user and sells at an agreed mark-up to the fund-users. This concept transforms the traditional lending activity into a sale and purchase agreement under which the lender buys goods whether in the form of raw materials, machines or other equipment as required by the borrower for resale to the borrower at a higher price agreed upon by both parties. Al-Qard Al- Hassan. This is an Islamic financing product adopted from the Islamic concept of Qard, which is a non-interest • bearing loan or financing (fungible, marketable wealth) extended to a borrower by a lender on the basis of ihsan or irfaq (benevolence). 3.5.5. Debt issued and other borrowed funds After initial measurement, debt issued and other borrowed funds are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on issue funds, and costs that are an integral part of the EIR. 3.5.6. Financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL Financial assets and financial liabilities in this category are those that are not held for trading and have been either designated by management upon initial recognition or are mandatorily required to be measured at fair value under PFRS 9. Such designation is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Management only designates an instrument at FVTPL upon initial recognition when one of the following criteria are met: The designation eliminates, or significantly reduces, the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the • assets or liabilities or recognizing gains or losses on them on a different basis; The liabilities and assets until January 1, 2018 under PAS 39 are part of a group of financial liabilities or financial assets, or • both under PAS 39, which are managed and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy; or The liabilities and assets until January 1, 2018 under PAS 39 containing one or more embedded derivatives, unless they do • not significantly modify the cash flows that would otherwise be required by the contract, or it is clear with little or no analysis when a similar instrument is first considered that separation of the embedded derivative(s) is prohibited. Financial assets and financial liabilities at FVTPL are recorded in the statements of financial position at fair value. Changes in fair value are recorded in profit and loss with the exception of movements in fair value of liabilities designated at FVTPL due to changes in the Bank’s own credit risk. Such changes in fair value are recorded in OCI and do not get recycled to the profit or loss. Interest earned or incurred on instruments designated at FVTPL is accrued in interest income or interest expense, respectively, using the EIR, taking into account any discount/premium and qualifying transaction costs being an integral part of instrument. Interest earned on assets mandatorily required to be measured at FVTPL is recorded using the contractual interest rate. Dividend income from equity instruments measured at FVTPL is recorded in profit or loss as other operating income when the right to the payment has been established. 3.6. Reclassification of financial assets and liabilities The Bank does not reclassify its financial assets subsequent to their initial recognition, apart from the exceptional circumstances in which the Bank acquires, disposes of, or terminates a business line. Financial liabilities are never reclassified. 3.7. Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities 55
  56. 56 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES 3 .7.1. Derecognition due to substantial modification of terms and conditions The Bank derecognizes a financial asset, such as a loan to a customer, when the terms and conditions have been renegotiated to the extent that, substantially, it becomes a new loan, with the difference recognized as a derecognition gain or loss, to the extent that an impairment loss has not already been recorded. The newly recognized loans are classified as Stage 1 for Expected Credit Losses (ECL)measurement purposes, unless the new loan is deemed to be POCI. When assessing whether or not to derecognize a loan to a customer, among others, the Bank considers the following factors: • • • • Change in currency of the loan Introduction of an equity feature Change in counterparty If the modification is such that the instrument would no longer meet the SPPI criterion If the modification does not result in cash flows that are substantially different, the modification does not result in derecognition. Based on the change in cash flows discounted at the original EIR, the Bank records a modification gain or loss, to the extent that an impairment loss has not already been recorded. 3.7.2. Derecognition other than for substantial modification 3.7.2.1. Financial assets A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognized when the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset expire. The Bank also derecognizes the financial asset if it has both transferred the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition. The Bank has transferred the financial asset if, and only if, either: The Bank has transferred its contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset; or • It retains the rights to the cash flows, but has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material • delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement Pass-through arrangements are transactions whereby the Bank retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of a financial asset (the ‘original asset’), but assumes a contractual obligation to pay those cash flows to one or more entities (the ‘eventual recipients’), when all of the following three conditions are met: The Bank has no obligation to pay amounts to the eventual recipients unless it has collected equivalent amounts from the • original asset, excluding short-term advances with the right to full recovery of the amount lent plus accrued interest at market rates; The Bank cannot sell or pledge the original asset other than as security to the eventual recipients; and • The Bank has to remit any cash flows it collects on behalf of the eventual recipients without material delay. In addition, the • Bank is not entitled to reinvest such cash flows, except for investments in cash or cash equivalents including interest earned, during the period between the collection date and the date of required remittance to the eventual recipients. A transfer only qualifies for derecognition if either: The Bank has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset; or • The Bank has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control • of the asset The Bank considers control to be transferred if and only if, the transferee has the practical ability to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party and is able to exercise that ability unilaterally and without imposing additional restrictions on the transfer. When the Bank has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards and has retained control of the asset, the asset continues to be recognized only to the extent of the Bank’s continuing involvement, in which case, the Bank also recognizes an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Bank has retained. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration the Bank could be required to pay.
  57. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT If continuing involvement takes the form of a written or purchased option (or both) on the transferred asset, the continuing involvement is measured at the value the Bank would be required to pay upon repurchase. In the case of a written put option on an asset that is measured at fair value, the extent of the entity's continuing involvement is limited to the lower of the fair value of the transferred asset and the option exercise price. 3.7.2.2. Financial liabilities A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. Where there has been an exchange between an existing borrower and lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing financial liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying value of the original financial liability and the consideration paid is recognized in profit or loss. 3.8. Inventories Inventories consist of printed forms, stationery and other office supplies and accountable forms purchased by the bank. Inventories are initially recognized at cost. The cost of inventories includes all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Inventories are subsequently expensed when consumed. 3.9. Property and Equipment Bank premises including leasehold rights and improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment are booked at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. When the assets are disposed/sold, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortisation shall be derecognized or taken out from the books and any gain or loss resulting from disposal is included in profit or loss from derecognition. The Bank computes depreciation on its depreciable assets net of residual value equivalent to ten percent of acquisition cost, using the straight-line method, wherein cost is spread over the useful lives of the assets. The computation of depreciation expense starts on the following month after the purchase/completion of the Bank premises, furniture, fixtures and equipment, irrespective of the date within the month. Impairment is recognized when there is a substantial evidence of decline in value of the bank premises, furniture, fixtures and equipment and recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortised over the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Major renovations and betterments expected to extend the life of the asset are capitalized, whereas minor expenditures for replacement, maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The asset’s residual values, useful lives and method of depreciation is reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year-end. Properties that are no longer needed or uneconomical to maintain are derecognized upon disposal in accordance with existing guidelines. As of reporting period, useful lives of the Bank’s properties are as follows: Leased asset Leasehold improvement Computer equipment Office machine equipment Furniture and fixtures Transportation equipment 3.10. Useful Life 2-3 years 5 years 5 years 5 years 5 years 7 years Leases Lease contracts are no longer classified as Operating or Finance Leases. Upon commencement of lease, the Bank has recognized right-of-use (ROU) asset and corresponding lease liability. Periodic payment of lease contract reduces the lease liability. The ROU asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis. 57
  58. 58 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES For short-term leases and low-value assets , the Bank has neither recognized a ROU asset nor a liability account but rather recognized expense on lease payments as incurred. 3.11. Investment Properties Investment properties are the foreclosed assets held by the Bank in settlement of clients’ obligations, recorded at the balance of the client’s obligation/loan exposure or the bid price, whichever is lower. Legal fees and direct cost incurred in the foreclosure as well as holding costs subsequent to the foreclosure or acquisition of the properties are charged to operations as incurred. 3.12. Intangible Assets This refers to the identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance. It includes but not limited to Computer Software, Card Management System, and Switch. The Bank recognized its intangible assets at cost less accumulated amortisation and allowance for losses, if any. 3.13. Other Assets Include expenses paid in advance and other miscellaneous assets which cannot be classified under any other account. Advances and prepayments are measured based on the amount granted or disbursed. 3.14. Trade and Other Payables Refers to other obligations of the Bank under open account arrangements such as: a. b. c. d. e. f. g. deposits made by loan applicants for various expenses in connection with pending loan applications; payments on loans pending liquidation; interest rebates on loan accounts which have not been claimed by clients; deposits in connection with the purchase/redemption of property acquired; proceeds of collections pending remittance to clients/payees; balances of current accounts closed due to improper handling; and indebtedness for purchases of office supplies, printed forms, furniture, fixtures and equipment. It is measured based on the amount to be paid upon settlement of the liability. 3.15. Share Capital 3.15.1. Common Stock Refers to the total amount of fully paid common stock, including stock dividends, for which the corresponding certificates have been issued. 3.15.2. Additional Paid-in Capital Stock Refers to the premium on the sale of common stock. Common stocks are valued at par. Any excess over the par value is charged under Additional paid-in capital. 3.16. Retained Earnings (Deficit) Refers to the accumulated profits (deficit) of the Bank excluding other comprehensive income and less dividend declared. 3.17. Revenues Revenues comprise profit from Islamic Financing and investing assets, interest income on conventional loans, deposit and placements, and other miscellaneous income.Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Bank and the amount of the revenue can be reliably measured.
  59. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT 3 .18. Expenses It includes payments or accruals for compensation, for purchase of goods and services, and for financial liabilities. Expenses are measured in terms of the cost of goods or services rendered which can be associated to a given period. Non-cash expenses are based on the cost allocated for the period. 3.19. Income Tax Expense This account is used to recognize income tax imposed upon the taxable income after deducting allowable expenses. It also includes other income taxes paid and/or accrued during the period. Current Tax. Current tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantially enacted as at the end of the reporting date. Deferred Tax. Deferred tax is provided, using the balance sheet liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, including asset revaluations. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits from the excess of minimum corporate income tax (MCIT) over the regular income tax and unused net operating loss carry-over (NOLCO), to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carry forward of unused tax credits from MCIT and unused NOLCO can be utilized. Deferred income tax, however, is not recognized on temporary differences that arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting income nor taxable income or loss. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax asset are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are applicable to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted as at reporting date. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred taxes related to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority. 3.20. Prior Period Errors Prior period errors refer to omissions or misstatements in the previous financial statements due to mistakes in application of accounting policies, unavailability of information, or oversight. An entity must correct all material prior period errors retrospectively in the first set of financial statements authorised for issue after their discovery by restating the comparative amounts for the prior period(s) presented in which the error occurred; or if the error occurred before the earliest prior period presented, restating the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest prior period presented. However, if it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an error on comparative information for one or more prior periods presented, the entity must restate the opening balances of assets, liabilities, and equity for the earliest period for which retrospective restatement is practicable (which may be the current period). Further, if it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect, at the beginning of the current period, of an error on all prior periods, the entity must restate the comparative information to correct the error prospectively from the earliest date practicable. 59

Related Party Transaction Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. The AAIIBP functions as a subsidiary of DBP. Information regarding related party transaction shall include but not limited to the nature and amount of the transaction. 3.22. Events After End of the Reporting Period Events after the balance sheet date and before the financial statements are authorized for issue by the Board include those that provide further evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period and may require adjusting entries and those events or conditions that arose after the end of the end of reporting period but do not require adjustment of financial statements. The latter shall, however, be disclosed as much as it may affect the decision or evaluation of the user of the reports. 4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES The preparation of the Bank’s financial statements in compliance with PFRS requires Management to make judgments and estimates that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. The judgments and estimates used in the financial statements give due consideration to materiality, and are based on Management’s evaluation of relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the financial statements. These judgments and estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 4.1 Impairment losses of loans and receivables An evaluation of the Bank’s loans and receivables is designed to identify potential charges to the allowance for probable losses on a continuous basis throughout the year. PFRS 9 requires the Bank to record an allowance for ECLs for all loans and other debt financial assets not held at FVTPL, together with loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. The allowance is based on the ECLs associated with the probability of default in the next 12 months unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk since origination. If the financial asset meets the definition of purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI), the allowance is based on the change in the ECLs over the life of the asset. 4.2 Impairment of non-financial assets The carrying amounts of the Bank’s assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assets’ recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses, if any, are charged to current operation. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value and the risk specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as revaluation decrease. When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss have been recognized for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as revaluation increase.
  61. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT 5 . MANAGEMENT OF RISKS RELATED TO FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Bank’s financial instruments comprise financial assets and financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to finance the Bank’s operations. The various financial assets held by the Bank are loans and receivables and cash and cash equivalents, which arise directly from its operations. 5.1 Credit Risk Credit risk arises when a client or counterparty fails to discharge an obligation and cause the Bank to incur a financial loss. Abrupt changes in the country’s macroeconomic condition or shift in business climate of a particular industry segment for which the Bank’s portfolio may be concentrated could alter the risk profile of its exposures. In building a quality portfolio of eligible borrowers, credit transactions follow the standard process of credit initiation, conduct of due diligence and evaluation, and securing approvals from appropriate authorities. The approving authority levels for financing of the Bank depends on the nature of the risk, type of security and amount of credit proposed. All credit facilities are deliberated by the credit committee where credit recommendations are approved based on Delegated Authorized Credit Limit (DACL). Thereafter, credit proposals are presented and deliberated for approval of credit either to the Executive Committee, for a specific Board-approved ceiling, or to the Board of Directors. The Bank manages credit risk by transacting only with recognized, creditworthy third parties. It is the Bank’s policy that all customers are subjected to credit verification procedures and are monitored on an ongoing basis. Account management involves ensuring the quality of credit and includes follow-through activities such as conduct of term loan reviews, updated credit investigation and collateral appraisal. Establishment of a system of limit is one of the control mechanisms for prudent credit management. For credit risks, limits are monitored to address over-concentration, and cushion the Bank from adverse effect of default. The established limits indicate the risk appetite of Management and the Board of Directors based on certain parameters. In addition, periodic monitoring and regulatory credit limits are reported to the Board of Directors. The Bank assesses the probability of default of individual counterparties. All past due loans and receivables in the statements of financial position are classified as Stage 2 or Stage 3 depending on number of days past due with Life time ECL. The maximum exposure to credit risk for loans and receivables is equivalent to the carrying amount carried in the statements of financial position.

  64. 64 AL-AMANAH ISLAMIC INVESTMENT BANK OF THE PHILIPPINES 5 .2. Market Risk Market Risk is the adverse deviation of the mark-to-market value of the trading portfolio due to price movements in market variables, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rate, equity prices and commodity prices. Market risks are primarily controlled by restricting trading operations within permissible instruments available from the BSP. 5.3 Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk refers to the inability to raise funds at normal costs to effectively accommodate the Bank’s obligations, deposits and other liabilities. The Bank monitors its risk related to shortage of funds through monitoring of financial assets and projected cash flows from operations. The objectives of Management in managing liquidity are to meet commitments on their due dates without incurring unnecessary costs and to ensure that adequate funding is available at all times. The table below shows the liquidity coverage ratio of the Bank in compliance with BangkoSentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Circular No. 1074.

LIQUIDITY COVERAGE RATIO [A/B] 412,096,306.93 90,707,924.12 454.31% To promote short-term resilience of a bank's liquidity risk profile, a bank shall maintain, over a 30-calendar day horizon, an adequate level of unencumbered high-quality liquid assets (HQlAs) that consists of cash or assets that can be converted into cash at little or no loss of value in private markets, to offset the net cash outflows it could encounter under a liquidity stress scenario. At a minimum, the stock of liquid assets should enable the bank to withstand significant liquidity shocks that 30 calendar days, which would give time for corrective actions to be taken by the bank management and/or the BSP. The LiquidityCoverage Ratio(LCR) is the ratio of HQLAs to total net cash outflows. Under a normal situation, the value of the ratio should be no lower than 100 per cent on a daily basis because the stock of unencumbered HQLA is intended to serve as a defense against the potential onset of liquidity stress.

  65. 2020 ANNUAL REPORT To promote long-term resilience of a bank /quasi-bank (QB) against liquidity risk, it shall maintain a stable funding profile in relation to the composition of its assets and off-balance sheet activities. The Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) seeks to meet this objective by limiting overreliance on short-term wholesale funding and promoting enhanced assessment of funding risk across all on- and off-balance sheet accounts. The NSFR complements the LCR, which promotes short term resilience of a bank's/QB's liquidity profile. The covered bank/QB shall maintain an NSFR of at least 100 per cent at alltimes. 5.4. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Bank’s exposure to interest rate risk is significantly low since there are no borrowings or long-term obligations recognized. 5.5. Operational Risk Operational Risks are the risks related to the malfunction of the information systems, reporting systems, internal risk-monitoring rules and internal procedures designed to take timely corrective actions, or the compliance with the internal risk policy rules. This includes Shariah Compliance Risk which is a type of operational risk that can lead to non-recognition of income and resultant losses. The Bank identifies and assesses the operational risk inherent in all material products, activities, processes and systems. The Bank also regularly monitors operational risk profiles and material exposures to losses, and reporting of pertinent information to senior management and the Board of Directors. Risk Self-Assessment The Bank assesses its operations and activities against a menu of potential operational risk vulnerabilities. This process is internally driven and incorporates checklists and/or workshops to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the operational risk environment. Business Continuity Plan The Business Continuity Plan is issued to prepare the Bank in the event of extended service outages caused by factors beyond its control (e.g., natural disasters, man-made events), and to restore services to the widest extent possible in a minimum time frame. The plan identifies vulnerabilities and recommends necessary measures to prevent extended service outages. It is a plan that encompasses all of the Bank’s system sites and operations facilities. 5.6. Capital Management The Basel II framework was adopted by the Philippine banking industry, as regulated by the BSP starting July 2007 to promote safety and soundness in the financial system and maintain at least the current overall level of capital in the system, enhance competitive equality, constitute a more comprehensive approach to addressing risks. BSP required the full implementation of Basel III by January 2014 considering that universal and commercial banks have higher capital ratios to begin with, as documented in the Discussion Paper entitled “Basel III Implementation in the Philippines” which was released in January 2012. Implementing guidelines on Basel III capital requirements was also approved by the Monetary Board on December 14, 2012 and was documented per BSP Circular 781. The Bank gauges its risk capital using the Basel III capital adequacy framework. The objective of the Bank in its capital management is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide returns for stockholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The BSP requires a minimum of 10 per cent Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR). The following tables show the CAR and Leverage Ratio as at December 31, 2020 in compliance with BSP Circular No. 1074. 65

The CAR requirement will be applied to all UBs and KBs on both solo and consolidated bases. The application of the requirement on a consolidated basis is the best means to preserve the integrity of capital in banks with subsidiaries by eliminating double gearing. However, as one of the principal objectives of supervision is the protection of depositors, it is essential to ensure that capital recognized in capital adequacy measures is readilyavailable for those depositors. Accordingly, individual banks should likewise be adequately capitalized on a stand-alone basis. Further, the Bank had breached the Minimum Ratio with only 3.43 per cent CAR as of reporting date December 31, 2020. The BSP is already aware of this, in fact, letters and other documents have been submitted such as the “Request for Regulatory Relief from Compliance with the Minimum Risk-Based CAR Requirements”and the letter contained the updates on initiatives to build up capital position and action plan in addressing the drop of the CAR during the nationwide community quarantine and the likes.

The Monetary Board approved the ratio to be five percent at a minimum. This effectively means that the maximum exposure that a bank can keep is 20x its Tier 1 capital. Under the Basel III reform agenda, the leverage ratio needs to be appreciated along side the CAR. Both ratios relate a measure of capital against an indicator of bank exposure, providing quantitative guidance on the extent of assets that a bank can carry for a given level of capital. The main difference between the two ratios is that the leverage ratio treats both on-book and off-book assets uniformly without adjusting for differences in riskiness.
