  3. QR . 83157 RN: 000220/WS/FY2017 Barwa Bank Q.S.C. - Annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Shareholders Barwa Bank Q.S.C. Doha - Qatar Report on the audit of the consolidated financial statements Opinion We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Barwa Bank Q.S.C. (the “Bank”) and its subsidiaries (together the Group), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, and the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of changes in owners’ equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and consolidated statement of changes in restricted investment accounts for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2017, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) issued by Accounting and Auditing Organisation for Islamic Financial Institutions (“AAOIFI”) and the applicable provisions of Qatar Central Bank regulations. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Codes of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in the State of Qatar, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
  4. INDEPENDENT AUDITOR ’S REPORT (CONTINUED) Other information Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Board of Directors Report which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report and the Annual Report, which is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report. The other information does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance or conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the board of directors for the consolidated financial statements Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with FAS issued by AAOIFI and the Qatar Central Bank regulations, and for such internal control as Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of user taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also: Identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  5. INDEPENDENT AUDITOR ’S REPORT (CONTINUED) Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements (continued) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of Board of Directors use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosure is inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
  6. INDEPENDENT AUDITOR ’S REPORT (CONTINUED) Report on other legal and regulatory requirements We are also of the opinion that proper books of account were maintained by the Group. We have obtained all the information and explanations which we considered necessary for the purpose of our audit. We further confirm that the consolidated financial information included in the Board of Directors’ report addressed to the General Assembly is in agreement with the books and records of the Group. To the best of our knowledge and belief and according to the information given to us, no contraventions of the applicable provisions of Qatar Central Bank Law, Qatar Commercial Companies Law and the Bank’s and subsidiaries’ Articles of Association were committed during the year which would materially affect the Group’s financial position or its financial performance.

  14. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 . 2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (a) Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) issued by the Accounting and Auditing Organisation for Islamic Financial Institutions (“AAOIFI”) and the applicable provisions of Qatar Central Bank (“QCB”) regulations. In line with the requirements of AAOIFI, for matters that are not covered by FAS, the Group uses guidance from the relevant International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). (b) Basis of measurement The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis except for investments carried at fair value through equity, investments carried at fair value through the income statement, investment property and risk management instruments, which are measured at fair value. (c) Functional and presentation currency These consolidated financial statements are presented in Qatari Riyal (“QAR”), which is the Bank’s functional currency. Except as otherwise indicated, financial information presented in QAR has been rounded to the nearest thousands. The functional currencies for the Group entities have also been assessed as Qatari Riyal. (d) Use of estimates and judgments The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with FAS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements are described in note 5. 12
  15. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities except the adoption of new financial accounting standards as detailed in note 3 (z). (a) (i) Basis of consolidation Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities and is generally assumed when the Group holds, directly or indirectly, majority of the voting rights of the entity. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that currently are exercisable. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group. (ii) Non-controlling interests Interests in the equity of subsidiaries not attributable to the parent are reported in consolidated statement of financial position in owners’ equity. Profits or losses attributable to non-controlling interests are reported in the consolidated income statement as income attributable to non-controlling interests. Losses applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance. The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests as transactions with equity owners of the Group. For purchases from non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in owners’ equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in owners’ equity. When the Group ceases to have control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in carrying amount recognised in consolidated income statement. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in owners’ equity in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other equity are reclassified to consolidated income statement. If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in equity is reclassified to consolidated income statement where appropriate. (iii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances, income and expenses (except for foreign currency transaction gains or losses) arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. 13
  16. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 . 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (a) Basis of consolidation (continued) (iv) Associates and joint ventures Associates are entities over which the Bank has significant influence but not control, generally significant influence presumed to exist when the Group has 20% or more of the voting rights. Joint Ventures are those entities over whose activities the group has joint control, established by contractual agreement and requiring unanimous consent for strategic, financial and operating decisions. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for by the equity method of accounting and are initially recognised at cost (including transaction costs directly related to acquisition of investment in associate). The Bank’s investment in associates and joint ventures includes goodwill (net of any accumulated impairment loss) identified on acquisition. The Bank’s share of its associates’ and joint ventures post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the consolidated income statement; its share of post-acquisition movements in reserve is recognised in equity. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the Bank’s share of losses in an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, including any other unsecured receivables, the Bank does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. Intergroup gains on transactions between the Bank and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Bank’s interest in the associates and joint ventures. Intragroup losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Dilution gains and losses in associates and joint ventures are recognised in the consolidated income statement. The accounting policies of associates and joint ventures have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with policies adopted by the Group. (b) Foreign currency transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are denominated, or that require settlement in a foreign currency are translated into the respective functional currencies of the operations at the spot exchange rates at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the spot exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated into the functional currency at the spot exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions and arising on translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in consolidated income statement. 14

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (b) Foreign currency transactions and balances (Continued) . Foreign currency differences are generally recognised in consolidated income statement. However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following items are recognized in consolidated statement of changes in equity: -Fair value through equity investments (except on impairment, in which case foreign currency differences that have been recognized in consolidated statement of changes in equity are reclassified to consolidated income statement); -A financial liability designated as a hedge of net investment in a foreign operation to the extent that the hedge is effective. Foreign operations The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Qatari Riyal at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their income statement is translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognised in consolidated statement of changes in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of consolidated statement of changes in equity relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in the consolidated income statement. Hedge of a net investment in foreign operation The Group applies hedge accounting to foreign currency differences arising between the functional currency of the foreign operation and the Company’s functional currency. To the extent that the hedge is effective, foreign currency differences arising on the translation of a financial liability designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation are recognised in consolidated statement of changes in equity and accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve. Any remaining differences are recognised in consolidated income statement. When the hedged net investment is disposed of, the relevant amount in the foreign currency translation reserve is transferred to consolidated income statement as part of the gain or loss on disposal. (c) Investment securities Investment securities comprise investments in debt-type and equity-type financial instruments. (i) Classification Debt-type instruments are investments that have terms that provide fixed or determinable payments of profits and capital. Equity-type instruments are investments that do not exhibit features of debt-type instruments and include instruments that evidence a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all its liabilities. Debt-type instruments Investments in debt-type instruments are classified into the following categories: 1) at amortised cost or 2) at fair value through income statement. A debt-type investment is classified and measured at amortised cost only if the instrument is managed on a contractual yield basis or the instrument is not held for trading and has not been designated at fair value through the income statement. 15
  18. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 . 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (c) (i) Investment securities (continued) Classification (continued) Debt-type investments classified and measured at fair value through income statement include investments held for trading or designated at fair value through income statement. At inception, a debttype investment managed on a contractual yield basis, can only be designated at fair value through income statement if it eliminates an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise on measuring the assets or liabilities or recognising the gains or losses on them on different bases. Equity-type instruments Investments in equity type instruments are classified into the following categories: 1) at fair value through income statement or 2) at fair value through equity. Equity-type investments classified and measured at fair value through income statement include investments held for trading or designated at fair value through income statement. An investment is classified as held for trading if acquired or originated principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price or dealer’s margin. Any investments that form part of a portfolio where there is an actual pattern of short-term profit taking are also classified as ‘held for trading’. Equity-type investments designated at fair value through income statement include investments which are managed and evaluated internally for performance on a fair value basis. On initial recognition, the Bank makes an irrevocable election to designate certain equity instruments that are not designated at fair value through income statement to be classified as investments at fair value through equity. (ii) Recognition and derecognition Investment securities are recognised at the trade date i.e. the date that the Group contracts to purchase or sell the asset, at which date the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Investment securities are de-recognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or where the Group has transferred substantially all risk and rewards of ownership. (iii) Measurement Initial recognition Investment securities are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs, except for transaction costs incurred to acquire investments at fair value through income statement which are charged to consolidated income statement. Subsequent measurement Investments at fair value through income statement are re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period and the resultant re-measurement gains or losses is recognised in the consolidated income statement in the period in which they arise. Subsequent to initial recognition, investments classified at amortised cost are measured at amortised cost using the effective profit method less any impairment allowance. All gains or losses arising from the amoritisation process and those arising on derecognition or impairment of the investments, are recognised in the consolidated income statement. 16
  19. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 . 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (c) Investment securities (continued) (iii) Measurement (continued) Investments at fair value through equity are re-measured at their fair values at the end of each reporting period and the resultant gain or loss, arising from a change in the fair value of investments are recognised in the consolidated statement of changes in owners’ equity and presented in a separate fair value reserve within equity. When the investments classified as fair value through equity are sold, impaired, collected or otherwise disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the consolidated statement of changes in equity is transferred to the consolidated income statement. Investments which do not have a quoted market price or other appropriate methods from which to derive a reliable measure of fair value when on a continuous basis cannot be determined, are stated at cost less impairment allowance, (if any). (iv) Measurement principles Amortised cost measurement The amortised cost of a financial asset or liability is the amount at which the financial asset or liability is measured at initial recognition, minus capital repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective profit method of any difference between the initial amount recognised and the maturity amount, minus any reduction for impairment. The calculation of the effective profit rate includes all fees and points paid or received that are an integral part of the effective profit rate. Fair value measurement Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged or an obligation settled between well informed and willing parties (seller and buyer) in an arm’s length transaction. The Group measures the fair value of quoted investments using the market closing bid price for that instrument. For unlisted investments, the Group recognises any increase in the fair value when they have reliable indicators to support such an increase and to evaluate the fair value of these investments. These reliable indicators are limited to the most recent transactions for the specific investment or similar investments made in the market on a commercial basis between willing and informed parties. 17
  20. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (d) Financing assets Financing assets comprise Shari’a compliant financing provided by the Group with fixed or determinable payments. These include financing provided through Murabaha, Mudaraba, Musawama, Ijarah, Istisna’a, Wakala and other modes of Islamic financing. Financing assets are stated at their amortised cost less impairment allowances (if any). Murabaha and Musawama Murabaha and Musawama receivables are sales on deferred terms. The Group arranges a Murabaha and Musawama transaction by buying a commodity (which represents the object of the Murabaha) and selling it to the Murabeh (a beneficiary) at a margin of profit over cost. The sales price (cost plus the profit margin) is repaid in installments by the Murabeh over the agreed period. Murabaha and Musawama receivables are stated net of deferred profits and impairment allowance (if any). Based on QCB instructions Chapter VII, Section D, Para 3/2/1, the Bank applies the rule of binding the purchase orderer to its promise in the Murabaha sale, and not enters into any Murabaha transaction in which the purchase orderer does not undertake to accept the goods if they meet the specifications. Mudaraba Mudaraba financing are partnerships in which the Group contributes the capital. These contracts are stated at fair value of consideration given less impairment allowance (if any). Ijarah Ijarah receivables arise from financing structures when the purchase and immediate lease of an asset are at cost plus an agreed profit (in total forming fair value). The amount is settled on a deferred payment basis. Ijarah receivables are carried at the aggregate of the minimum lease payments, less deferred income (in total forming amortised cost) and impairment allowance (if any). Istisna’a Istisna’a is a sales contract in which the Group acts as ‘al-sani’ (a seller) with an ‘al-mustasni’ (a purchaser) and undertakes to manufacture or otherwise acquire a product based on the specification received from the purchaser, for an agreed upon price. Istisna’a revenue is the total price agreed between the seller and purchaser including the Group’s profit margin. The Group recognises Istisna’a revenue and profit margin based on percentage of completion method by taking in account the difference between total revenue (cash price to purchaser) and Group’s estimated cost. The Group’s recognises anticipated losses on Istisna’a contract as soon as they are anticipated. Wakala Wakala contracts represent agency agreements between two parties. One party, the provider of funds (Muwakkil) appoints the other party as an agent (Wakeel) with respect to the investment of the Muwakkil funds in a Shari’a compliant transaction. The Wakeel uses the funds based on the nature of the contract and offer an anticipated return to the Muwakkil. Wakala contracts are stated at amortised cost. 18
  21. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (e) Other financial assets and liabilities (i) Recognition and initial measurement The Group initially recognises due from banks, financing assets, customer current accounts, due to banks, and financing liabilities including sukuk financing on the date at which they are originated. All other financial assets and liabilities are initially recognised on the settlement date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset or financial liability is measured initially at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through income statement, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. (ii) De-recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities The Group de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset. Any interest in transferred financial assets that qualify for de-recognition that is created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset or liability in the consolidated statement of financial position. On de-recognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount of the asset (or the carrying amount allocated to the portion of the asset transferred), and consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) is recognised in consolidated income statement. The Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its consolidated statement of financial position, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets or a portion of them. If all or substantially all risks and rewards are retained, then the transferred assets are not derecognized. Transactions in which the Group neither retains nor transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a financial asset and it retains control over the asset, the Group continues to recognise the asset to the extent of its continuing involvement, determined by the extent to which it is exposed to changes in the value of the transferred asset. In certain transactions the Group retains the obligation to service the transferred financial asset for a fee. The transferred asset is de-recognised if it meets the de-recognition criteria. An asset or liability is recognised for the servicing contract, depending on whether the servicing fee is more than adequate (asset) or is less than adequate (liability) for performing the servicing. The Group de-recognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire. (iii) Offsetting Financial assets and liabilities are offset only when there is a legal or religious enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the Group intends to either settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 19
  22. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. (f) . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Impairment of financial assets The Group assesses at each consolidated statement of financial position date whether there is objective evidence that an asset is impaired. Objective evidence that financial assets (including equity-type investments) are impaired can include default or delinquency by a counterparty / investee, restructuring of financing facility or advance by the Group on terms that the Group would not otherwise consider, indications that a counterparty or issuer will enter bankruptcy, the disappearance of an active market for a security, or other observable data relating to a group of assets such as adverse changes in the payment status of counterparty or issuers in the group, or economic conditions that correlate with defaults in the group. In addition, for an investment in equity-type instruments, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment. Equity-type investments classified as fair value through equity In the case of equity-type investments classified as fair value through equity and measured at fair value, a significant (where market value has declined by a minimum of 20%) or prolonged (where market value has declined for 9 months at least) decline in the fair value of an investment below its cost is considered in determining whether the investments are impaired. If any such evidence exists for equity-type investments classified as fair value through equity, the cumulative loss previously recognised in the consolidated statement of changes in equity is removed from equity and recognised in the consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in the consolidated income statement on equity-type investments are subsequently reversed through equity. Financial assets carried at amortised cost (including investment in debt-type instruments classified as amortised cost) For financial assets carried at amortised cost, impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the financial assets and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the assets’ original effective profit rate. Losses are recognised in consolidated income statement and reflected in an allowance account. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the impairment loss is reversed through the consolidated income statement, to the extent of previously recognised impairment losses. The Group considers evidence of impairment for financial assets carried at amortised cost at both a specific asset and collective level. All individually significant financial assets are assessed for specific impairment. All individually significant financial assets found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet identified. Financial assets that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping assets together with similar risk characteristics. (g) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include notes and coins on hand, unrestricted balances held with central banks and highly liquid financial assets with maturities of less than three months from the reporting date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Group in the management of its short-term commitments. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost in the consolidated statement of financial position. 20
  23. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (h) Investment property Properties held for rental or for capital appreciation purpose are classified as investment property and are measured at fair value with any change therein recognised in equity within the fair value reserve. An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised. (i) Risk management instruments Risk management instruments are measured at fair value on the consolidated statement of financial position and any resulting gain or loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement. (j) Fixed assets Items of fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of related equipment. The gain or loss on disposal of an item of fixed asset is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the item of fixed assets, and is recognised in other income/other expenses in consolidated income statement. Depreciation is recognised in consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of fixed assets since this closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset and is based on cost of the asset less its estimated residual value. Leased assets under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years are as follows: Buildings 20 years IT Equipment (hardware/software) 3-5 years Fixtures, fittings and office equipment 4-7 years Motor vehicles 5-7 years Useful lives and residual values are reassessed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. (k) Intangible assets Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Subsequent to initial recognition goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Intangible assets other than goodwill are amortised over their useful lives, and carried net of accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Useful life of intangible assets are as follows: Identifiable intangibles 3-5 years 21
  24. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. (l) . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Impairment of non-financial assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its Cash Generating Unit (“CGU") exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. 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 assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGU. Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment testing is performed reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. The Group’s corporate assets do not generate separate cash inflows and are utilised by more than one CGU. Corporate assets are allocated to CGUs on a reasonable and consistent basis and tested for impairment as part of the testing of the CGU to which the corporate asset is allocated. Impairment losses are recognised in consolidated income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs) and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill cannot be subsequently reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. (m) Customer current accounts Balances in current accounts are recognised when received by the Bank. The transactions are measured as the amount received by the Bank at the time of contracting. At the end of the reporting period, these accounts are measured at amortised cost. 22
  25. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. . SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (n) Equity of investment account holders Equity of investment account holders is funds held by the Group, which it can invest at its own discretion. The investment account holders authorises the Group to invest the account holders’ funds in a manner which the Group deems appropriate without laying down any restrictions as to where, how and for what purpose the funds should be invested. The Bank charges a management fee (Mudarib fees) to investment account holders. Of the total income from investment accounts, the income attributable to account holders is allocated to investment accounts after deducting the Group’s share of income as a Mudarib. The allocation of income is determined by the management of the Group within the allowed profit sharing limits as per the terms and conditions of the investment accounts. Investment accounts are carried at their book values (amortised cost). (o)      (p) Distribution of profit between equity of investment account holders and owners The Bank complies with the directives of the QCB as follows: Net profit is arrived at after taking into account all income and expenses at the end of the financial year, and is distributed between investment account holders and owners. The share of profit of investment account holders is calculated on the basis of their daily deposit balances over the year, after reducing the Bank’s agreed and declared Mudaraba fee. In case of any expense or loss, which arises out of negligence on the part of the Bank due to noncompliance with QCB regulations and instructions, then such expenses or loss shall not be borne by the investment account holders. Such matter is subject to the QCB decision. In case the results of the Group at the year-end are net losses, then QCB, being the authority responsible for determining the Bank’s accountability for these losses, shall decide how these shall be treated without violation to the Islamic Shari’a rules. Due to pooling of investment funds with the Group’s funds for the purpose of investment, no priority has been given to either party in the appropriation of profit. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material). When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. Present obligations arising under onerous contracts are recognised and measured as provisions. An onerous contract is considered to exist where the Group has a contract under which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract. 23
  26. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (q) Employee benefits . Defined contribution plans The Group provides for its contribution to the State administered retirement fund for Qatari employees in accordance with the retirement law, and the resulting charge is included within the staff cost under note 27 in the consolidated income statement. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised when they are due. Defined benefit scheme The Group provides for employees end of service benefits determined in accordance with the requirements of Qatar Labour law pertaining to retirement and pensions, wherever required. These unfunded charges are made by the Group on the basis of employees’ salaries and the number of years of service at the statement of financial position date. Short-term employee benefits Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under shortterm cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. (r) Revenue recognition Murabaha and Musawama Profit from Murabaha and Musawama transactions is recognised when the income is both contractually determinable and quantifiable at the commencement of the transaction. Such income is recognised on a time-apportioned basis over the period of the transaction. Where the income from a contract is not contractually determinable or quantifiable, it is recognised when it is actually realised. Income related to non-performing accounts is excluded from the consolidated income statement. Mudaraba Income on Mudaraba financing is recognised when the right to receive payment is established or on distribution by the Mudarib, whereas losses are charged to the consolidated income statement on declaration by the Mudarib. Ijara Ijara income is recognised on time-apportioned basis over the lease period. Income related to nonperforming accounts is excluded from the consolidated income statement. Istisna’a Revenue and the associated profit margin are recognised in the Group’s consolidated income statement according to the percentage of completion method. Wakala Income from Wakala placements is recognised on a time apportioned basis so as to yield a constant periodic rate of return based on the balance outstanding. 24
  27. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (r) . Revenue recognition (continued) Income from investment banking services Income from investment banking services (presented in fee and commission income), including placement, advisory, marketing and performance fees, is recognised as per contractual terms when the service is provided and income is earned. This is usually when the Group has performed all significant acts in relation to a transaction and it is highly probable that the economic benefits from the transaction will flow to the Group. Significant acts in relation to a transaction are determined based on the terms agreed in the contracts for each transaction. The assessment of whether economic benefits from a transaction will flow to the Group is based on the extent of binding firm commitments received from other parties. Fees and commission income Fees and commission income that are integral to the effective profit rate on a financial asset carried at amortised cost are included in the measurement of the effective profit rate of the financial asset. Other fees and commission income, including account servicing fees, sales commission, management, arrangement and syndication fees, are recognised as the related services are performed. Dividend income Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the dividend is established. (s) Earnings per share The Bank presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to owners of the Bank by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the net profit or loss attributable to owners and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. (t) Segment reporting An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group’s other components, whose operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group Management Committee (being the chief operating decision maker) to make decisions about resources allocated to each segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. (u) Fiduciary activities The Group acts as fund manager and in other fiduciary capacities that result in the holding or placing of assets on behalf of individuals, corporate and other institutions. These assets and income arising thereon are excluded from these consolidated financial statements, as they are not assets of the Group. (v) Earnings prohibited by Shari’a The Bank is committed to avoid recognising any income generated from non-Islamic sources. Accordingly, all non-Islamic income is credited to a charity account, the Bank reserve these funds for charitable purposes. 25

(w) Taxation The Group is currently exempt from income tax. However, the Bank and certain subsidiaries of the Group that meet the Tax Law criteria are required to file income tax returns with the Public Revenues and Taxes department. (x) Financial information of the parent A statement of financial position and income statement of the Parent as disclosed at the end of the consolidated financial statements are prepared following the same accounting policies as mentioned above except for investment in subsidiaries and associates which are carried at cost. (y) Financial guarantees In the ordinary course of business, the Group gives financial guarantees, consisting of letters of credit and guarantees. Financial guarantees are initially recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value, being the premium received on the date the guarantee was given, and the initial fair value is amortised over the life of the financial guarantee. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group’s liability under such guarantees are measured at the higher of the amortised amount and the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle any financial obligation arising at the reporting date. These estimates are determined based on experience of similar transactions and history of past losses, supplemented by the judgment of Management. Any increase in the liability relating to guarantees is taken to the consolidated statement of income. The amortisation of the premium received is recognized in the consolidated statement of income under “fee and commission income”. (z) New standards and interpretations New standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not yet effective FAS 30 Impairment, Credit losses and onerous commitments AAOIFI has issued FAS 30 Impairment, Credit losses and onerous commitments in 2017. The objective of this standard is to establish the principles of accounting and financial reporting for the impairment and credit losses on various Islamic financing, investment and certain other assets of Islamic financial institutions (the institutions), and provisions against onerous commitments enabling in particular the users of financial statements to fairly assess the amounts, timing and uncertainties with regard to the future cash flows associated with such assets and transactions. FAS 30 will replace FAS 11 Provisions and Reserves and parts of FAS 25 Investment in Sukuk, shares and similar instruments that deal with impairment. FAS 30 classifies assets and exposures into three categories based on the nature of risks involved (i.e. credit risk and other risks) and prescribes three approaches for assessing losses for each of these categories of assets: 1) Credit Losses approach, 2) Net Realizable Value approach (“NRV”) and 3) Impairment approach. 26
  29. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (z) . New standards and interpretations (continued) Expected credit losses (‘ECL’) FAS 30 introduces the Credit Losses approach with a forward-looking ‘expected credit loss’ model. The Credit Losses approach for receivables and off balance sheet exposures uses a dual measurement approach, under which the loss allowance is measured as either a 12-month expected credit loss or a lifetime expected credit loss. The new impairment model will apply to financial assets which are subject to credit risk, and a number of significant judgements are also required in applying the accounting requirements for measuring ECL, such as:     Determining criteria for significant increase in credit risk (SICR); Choosing appropriate models and assumptions for the measurement of ECL; Establishing the number and relative weightings of forward-looking scenarios for each type of product/market and the associated ECL; and Establishing group of similar financial assets for the purposes of measuring ECL. The standard is effective from financial periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Bank is currently awaiting guidance from Qatar Central Bank (“QCB”) in this regard. However, the Bank has assessed the estimated impact of applying the ECL regulations issued by the QCB during the year, with effective date of 1 January 2018, on its consolidated financial statements as below: Retained earnings Closing balance as at 31 December 2017 Estimated risk reserve transfer on 1 January 2018 Non-controlling interest In QAR’000 977,361 645,563 In QAR’000 13,680 - 1,264 - 10,454 1,066,439 - 128,375 1,206,532 - 416,392 13,680 Impact on recognition of Expected Credit Losses Expected credit losses for due from banks Expected credit losses for debt type securities at amortized cost Expected credit losses for financing assets Expected credit losses for off balance sheet exposures subject to credit risk Estimated adjusted opening balance on date of initial application of 1 January 2018 The Group is expected to utilize part of the risk reserve to record the initial cumulative impact of the ECL after obtaining the necessary approval from the QCB. The above assessment is preliminary because not all transition work has been finalized. The actual impact of adopting the QCB’s ECL regulations on 1 January 2018 and on adoption of FAS 30 may change because: 27

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT Introduction and overview The Group’s business involves taking on risks in a targeted manner and managing them professionally. The core functions of the Group’s risk management are to identify all key risks for the Group, measure these risks, manage the risk positions and determine capital allocations. The Group regularly reviews its risk management policies and systems to reflect changes in markets, products and best market practice. The Group’s aim is to achieve an appropriate balance between risk and return and minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. The Group defines risk as the possibility of losses or profits foregone, which may be caused by internal or external factors. The risks arising from financial instruments to which the Group is exposed are financial risks, which include credit risk, liquidity risk, market risks and operational risk. Risk Management Structure The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for identifying and controlling risks, however, there are separate independent functions responsible for managing and monitoring risks. Risk Management and Compliance Committee The Risk Management and Compliance Committee has the overall responsibility for the development of the risk strategy and implementing principles, frameworks, policies and limits. Credit Committee The Board of Directors has delegated authority to Credit Committee to approve, sub-delegate, direct, monitor and reviews the Group's financing activities, within specified limits, and to ensure that the credit policies are adhered to, and credit operations are conducted in the most effective manner. The Credit Committee is the highest level of executive credit approval authority in the Group and is responsible for taking credit decisions within its delegated authority, recommending credit policies and future direction of the credit activities in the Group. Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) ALCO is responsible for the overall balance sheet management of the Group. ALCO set guidelines for the overall management of the liquidity and profit rate risk. ALCO also determine the borrowing and funding strategy (asset allocation) of the Group in order to maximize the profit and minimize risk. Operational Risk Committee The Operational Risk Committee is responsible for managing and overseeing all aspects of operational risk in the Group. The Committee is responsible for the effective implementation of all operational risk policies and standards. Internal Audit Risk management processes are audited by the Group Internal Audit function which examines both the adequacy and compliance with the procedures in addition to a specific audit of the Group Risk function itself as per the approved audit plan. Group Internal Audit discusses the results of all assessments with management and reports its findings and recommendations to the Audit Committee. 29
  32. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 4. (b) . FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Group manages credit risk through diversification of investments, capital markets, lending and financing activities to avoid undue concentrations of credit risk with individuals or groups of customers in specific locations or businesses. It also obtains collaterals when appropriate. Credit risk arises from all transactions that give rise to actual, contingent or potential claims against any counterparty, obligor or customer (collectively referred as “counterparties”). It is the risk that a loss will be incurred if counterparty defaults or fails to honor a financial obligation that is due. It takes into account both probability of involuntary default, wherein the counterparty does not possess the financial means to repay, and strategic default, wherein counterparty with the ability to repay deliberately defaults. Credit risk may have the following results: - Delay in payment obligation; - Partial loss of the credit exposure; or - Complete loss of the credit exposure. For risk management reporting purposes, the Group considers and consolidates all elements of credit risk exposure (such as individual obligor default risk, country and sector risk). Management of credit risk The Board of Directors has delegated responsibility for the oversight of credit risk upto a specified limit to its Credit Committee, which is responsible for management of the Group’s credit risk, including:       Formulating credit policies in consultation with business units, covering collateral requirements, credit assessment, risk grading and reporting, compliance with QCB regulations, other applicable legal and statutory requirements; Establishing the authorisation structure for the approval and renewal of credit facilities. Facilities exceeding a certain threshold require Board of Directors approval; Developing and maintaining the Group’s risk grading in order to categorise exposures according to the degree of financial risk; Limiting geographical exposures, concentration risk based on internal and external ratings, exposure limits and QCB guidelines; Collateralising the exposures by adequate tangible and intangible collaterals. The types of collaterals obtained include cash, mortgages over real estate properties, pledges over shares and personal/corporate guarantees, as appropriate; and Reviewing business units compliance of agreed exposure limits, including those for selected industries, country risk and product types. Regular review of the credit quality of Group’s portfolios is performed and appropriate corrective actions are taken when required. The Group has implemented Moody’s Risk Analyst Rating System, in order to effectively monitor credit risk at an obligors level on the Group’s portfolio and align capital adequacy to such risks. The system is globally proven and enables the Group to rate credit risk on a more objective basis. 30
  33. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 4. (b) (i) . FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) Credit risk (Continued) Credit risk measurement Group regularly analyze the quality of the overall credit portfolio with particular focus on the problem credits and the remedial management process. This include: - Transaction level review - Obligor level review - Portfolio based review - Exception based review. Credit review and Credit Administration units are responsible to ensure that all financing activity is undertaken within the approved framework and any deviations are promptly detected, reported and followed up for remedial action. Credit portfolio management Objective and responsibility Portfolio management is an integral part of the credit process that enables the Group to limit concentrations, reduce volatility, increase liquidity and achieve optimum earnings. It does so by incorporating portfolio strategy and planning, performance assessment and reporting functions into one comprehensive management process. Group is responsible for carrying out the activities in relation to credit risk portfolio management by seeking information from different business units on a regular basis to perform this function. The portfolio analyst undertakes the review, monitoring and control of limits structures based on the portfolio diversification parameters. Further, it prepares portfolio studies and periodic sector/ regional exposure information for management review. Portfolio diversification The Bank takes into consideration the following parameters to assess the diversification of the credit portfolio across: - Group exposure limits - Industry/ sector exposure limits - Country exposure limits - Product exposure limits - Exposure to a particular credit risk mitigant Stress testing of credit portfolio The Group follows a rigorous and forward looking stress testing procedure (in line with pillar 2 requirements of Basel II Accord as well as taking into consideration QCB guidelines) that identifies possible events or changes in market conditions (or risk factors) that could adversely impact the Group. This requires foreseeing situations under hypothetical scenarios considering the question ‘what-if’ and development of stress tests in such scenarios. This enables the Group to be well equipped to cope with the crisis situations when they arise. Risk function has the responsibility of conducting periodic stress testing of the credit portfolio. 31

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) Credit risk (Continued) Credit risk measurement (continued) The stress-testing program of the Group involves the following steps: - Capturing reliable data (accuracy and timeliness) - Identification of risk factors that have an impact on the portfolio value. The different categories of risk factors used by the Group are: a. Obligor rating b. Environment (industry, economic, political, real estate prices, etc.) c. Model (assumptions, holding period, etc.) d. Analytics (correlation, transition matrices, etc.) - Construction of stress tests on the basis of single factor or multi-factor scenarios Deciding magnitude of factor shock Running stress tests Reporting results of stress tests - Assessing the impact of abovementioned results on capital adequacy of the Group Reassessing the relevance of stress tests on yearly basis. Credit risk management information system (MIS) Information on all elements of the Group’s risk asset portfolio, and most particularly on irregular accounts and on those displaying characteristics of deterioration, are readily available with the concerned staff. Reports are thoroughly scrutinized and, where indicated, triggers appropriate response from the department concerned. (ii) Risk limit control and mitigation policies The Group has processes in place for mitigating credit risk which mainly include processes for credit Initiation, credit standards, collateral management and large exposure management. Collateral The Group secures credit exposures through a variety of collaterals including cash margins, lien on fixed deposits, real estate and marketable securities. Independent valuation of real estate collaterals are obtained periodically to determine collateral coverage. The value of marketable securties is constantly monitored to determine whether any replenishments /disposals are required. Financing limits (for risk management instrument and financing books) The Group has defined limits by counterparty, borrowing group, country, Board of Directors, subsidiaries and affliates. Exposures against these limits are monitored and any breach is reported to the Board through Risk Management and Compliance Committee. 32

(b) Credit risk (Continued) (v) Credit quality (continued) Renegotiated financing assets Restructuring activities include extended payment arrangements, approved external management plans, modification and deferral of payments. Restructuring policies and practices are based on indicators or criteria that, in the judgment of management, indicate that payment will most likely continue. These policies are kept under continuous review. As at 31 December 2017, QAR 1,238.4 million (31 December 2016: QAR 1,227.7 million) of deals were restructured. (vi) Collateral The determination of eligible collateral and the value of collateral are based on QCB regulations and are assessed by reference to market price or indexes of similar assets. The Group has collateral in the form of blocked deposits, pledge of shares or legal mortgages against the past dues financing assets. The aggregate fair value of collateral is QAR 40,314.0 million (2016: QAR 41,099.6 million). For 0 day past due QAR 32,237.1 million (2016: QAR 34,336.1 million), past due up to 30 days: QAR 3,216.8 million (2016: QAR 4,582.8 million), past due from 31 to 60 days:QAR 2,962.8 million (2016: QAR 1,758.2 million), past due from 61 and 90 days: QAR 192.1 million (2016: QAR 6.3 million) and past due from 91 and above days: QAR 1,705.2 million (2016: QAR 416.2 million) respectively. (vii) Write-off policy The Group writes off a financing asset or an investment in debt-type security balance, and any related allowances for impairment losses, when the Group determines that the financing asset or security is uncollectible and after QCB approval is obtained. This determination is made after considering information such as the occurrence of significant changes in the borrower’s / issuer’s financial position such that the borrower / issuer can no longer pay the obligation, or that proceeds from collateral will not be sufficient to pay back the entire exposure. For smaller balance standardised financing assets, write-off decisions generally are based on a productspecific past due status. The amount written off during the year was QAR 1.0 million (2016: QAR 0.9 million). (c) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its obligations when they fall due as a result of e.g. customer deposits being withdrawn, cash requirements from contractual commitments, or other cash outflows, such as debt maturities or margin calls for risk management instruments etc. Such outflows would deplete available cash resources for client financing, trading activities and investments. In extreme circumstances, lack of liquidity could result in reductions in the consolidated statement of financial position and sales of assets, or potentially an inability to fulfil financing commitments. The risk that the Group will be unable to do so is inherent in all banking operations and can be affected by a range of institution-specific and market-wide events including, but not limited to, credit events, merger and acquisition activity, systemic shocks and natural disasters. 37

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (c) Liquidity risk (Continued) (i) Management of liquidity risk The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible that it has sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk of damage to the Group’s reputation. The primary objective of liquidity risk management over which the Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) has oversight, is to provide a planning mechanism for unanticipated changes in the demand or needs for liquidity created by customer behavior or abnormal market conditions. The ALCO emphasizes the maximization and preservation of customer deposits and other funding sources. ALCO also monitors deposit rates, levels, trends and significant changes. Deposit mobilization plans are regularly reviewed for consistency with the liquidity policy requirements. A contingency plan is also in place which is reviewed periodically. The daily liquidity position is monitored and regular liquidity stress testing is conducted under a variety of scenarios covering both normal and more severe market conditions. Liquidity policy and procedures are subject to review and approval of the Board of Directors and ALCO. A summary report, including any exceptions and remedial action taken, is submitted regularly to the Board of Directors and ALCO. (ii) Exposure to liquidity risk The key measure used by the Group for managing liquidity risk is the ratio of net liquid assets to deposits from customers. For this purpose net liquid assets are considered as including cash and cash equivalents and investment grade debt securities for which there is an active and liquid market less any deposits from banks, other borrowings and commitments maturing within the next month. The Group ratio of liquid assets to customer deposits at the reporting date was 16% (2016: 35%). A similar, but not identical, calculation is used to measure the Group’s compliance with the liquidity limit established by QCB. As at 31 December 2017, liquidity ratio as per QCB prescribed method was 105% (31 December 2016: 113%). The mimimum liquidity ratio determined by the QCB is 100%. 38

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (c) Liquidity risk (Continued) (iii) Maturity analysis Maturity analysis of Group’s financial assets and liabilities are prepared on the basis of their contractual maturities.

  43. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 4. . FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (d) Market risks The Group takes on exposure to market risks, which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risks arise from open positions in profit rate, currency and equity products, all of which are exposed to general and specific market movements and changes in the level of volatility of market rates or prices such as profit rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. The Group separates exposures to market risk into either trading or non-trading portfolios. The market risks arising from trading and non-trading activities are concentrated in Group Treasury and monitored by two teams separately. Regular reports are submitted to the Board of Directors and heads of each business unit. Trading portfolios include those positions arising from market-making transactions where the Group acts as principal with clients or with the market. Non-trading portfolios primarily arise from the profit rate management of the entity’s retail and corporate banking assets and liabilities. Non-trading portfolios also consist of foreign exchange and equity risks arising from the Group’s debt-type and equity-type investments. (i) Management of market risks Overall authority for market risk is vested in ALCO. Group Market Risk is responsible for the development of detailed risk management policies (subject to review and approval by Board of Directors) and for the day-to-day review of their implementation. The Board of Directors has set risk limits based on different factors including country-wise exposure limits. These limits are closely monitored by senior management and reviewed by ALCO on a regular basis. (ii) Exposure to market risks – trading portfolios The principal tool used to measure and control market risk exposure within the Group’s trading portfolios is Value at Risk (VaR). The VaR of a trading portfolio is the estimated loss that will arise on the portfolio over a specified period of time (holding period) from an adverse market movement with a specified probability (confidence level). A fully integrated VaR computation system is used by the Group to calculate VaR through historical simulation, analytical and Monte Carlo approaches, which is based upon a 99 percent confidence level assuming a 1-day, 10-day and 30-day holding periods. Taking account of market data from the previous one year, and observed relationships between different markets and prices, the model generates a wide range of plausible future scenarios for market price movements. Market Risk limits are set and monitored by the Market Risk Management function endorsed by BOD.The Group uses VaR limits for total market risk and specific foreign exchange, profit rate, equity and other price risks. The overall structure of VaR limits are reviewed by ALCO and approval by the Board of Directors. VaR limits are allocated to trading portfolios The Group’s trading portfolio is comparitively insignificant in size, consist mainly of Equities however, the Group has established policies for VaR measurement to overlook the trends for market risk management. In addition, the Group uses a wide range of stress tests to model the financial impact of a variety of exceptional market scenarios, such as periods of prolonged market illiquidity, on individual trading portfolios and the Group’s overall position. 41

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (d) Market risks (continued) (iii) Exposure to profit rate risk – non-trading portfolios The principal risk to which non-trading portfolios are exposed is the risk of loss from fluctuations in the future cash flows or fair values of financial instruments because of a change in market profit rates. Profit rate risk is managed principally through monitoring profit rate gaps and by having pre-approved limits for repricing bands. ALCO is the monitoring body for compliance with these limits and is assisted by Group central Treasury in its day-to-day monitoring activities. The Islamic Financial Services Board (“IFSB”) has issued a document on Risk Management guidelines for Institutions (other than Insurance Institutions) offering only Islamic Financial Service (“IIFS”). This includes sections on ‘Rate of Return Risk’ and ‘Liquidity Risk’. The Group adheres to the guidelines on ‘Rate of Return Risk’ and ‘Liquidity Risk’. A summary of the Group’s profit rate gap position on non-trading portfolios is as follows: Carrying Less than 3-12 amount 3 months months Non-profit Effective 1-5 years rate sensitive profit rate 2017 Balances with Qatar Central Bank Due from banks Financing assets Investment securities-debt type Due to banks Sukuk financing Equity of investment account holders 0.00% 1,211,956 - - - 1,211,956 2,946,480 312,004 - - 2,634,476 2.48% 31,676,882 18,003,708 5,352,227 1,446,190 6,874,757 5.15% 3.75% 9,868,263 - - - 9,868,263 45,703,581 18,315,712 5,352,227 1,446,190 20,589,452 11,445,073 951,378 - - 10,493,695 2,201,270 2,201,270 - - - 2.22% 3.38% 24,796,114 15,430,009 5,881,851 654,965 2,829,289 2.62% Consolidated statement of financial position items - Profit rate sensitivity gap 9,462,394 1,934,325 (529,624) 791,225 7,266,468 Off-consolidated statement of financial position items Cumulative profit rate sensitivity gap 7,336,554 2,726,193 2,992,788 1,617,573 - 16,798,948 4,660,518 2,463,164 2,408,798 7,266,468 4.89% 42

(d) Market risks (continued) (iii) Exposure to profit rate risk – non-trading portfolios (continued) Profit rate movements affect reported equity in the following way:  retained earnings arising from increases or decreases in net profit and the fair value changes reported in consolidated income statement. Overall non-trading profit rate risk positions are managed by Treasury & Investments Group (TIG), which uses financial investments, advances to banks, deposits from banks and risk management instruments to manage the overall position arising from the Group’s non-trading activities. The use of risk management instruments to manage profit rate risk. (iv) Exposure to other market risks – non-trading portfolios Foreign currency transactions Foreign exchange risks arise from the movement of the rate of exchange over a period of time. Positions are monitored on a regular basis to ensure positions are maintained within approved limits established by the Board of Directors. As at the reporting date the net foreign currency exposures, other than USD which is pegged to the Qatari Riyal, and their respective sensitivities to a 500 bps change was as follows: Functional currency of the Group entities 2017 2016 13,862 (4,043) Net foreign currency exposure: Pounds Sterling Euro Other currencies* Increase / decrease in profit 5% increase / decrease in currency exchange rate 2017 2016 Pound Sterling Euro Other currencies 693 253 5,443 (202) 10 11,687 5,051 208 108,856 233,740 Increase / decrease in equity 2017 2016 693 253 5,443 (202) 10 11,687 *Other currencies include net exposure to Other GCC currencies amounting to QAR 106.7 million (2016: QAR 232.5 million). 44
  47. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 4. . FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (d) Market risks (continued) Equity price risk Equity price risk is the risk that the fair value of equities decreases as a result of changes in the level of equity indices and individual stocks. The non-trading equity price risk exposure arises from equity securities classified as fair value through income statement and fair value through equity. The Group is also exposed to equity price risk and the sensitivity analysis thereof is as follows: 2017 5% increase / decrease in QE and other index Increase / decrease in profit and loss Increase / decrease in equity 2016 2,586 4,077 54,524 44,570 The above analysis has been prepared on the assumption that all other variables such as profit rate, foreign exchange rate, etc are held constant and is based on historical correlation of the equity securities to the relevant index. Actual movement may be different from the one stated above. (e) Operational risks Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated with the Group’s involvement with financial instruments, including processes, personnel, technology and infrastructure, and from external factors other than credit, market and liquidity risks such as those arising from legal and regulatory requirements and generally accepted standards of corporate behaviour. The Group’s objective is to manage operational risk so as to balance the avoidance of financial losses and damage to the Group’s reputation with overall cost effectiveness and to avoid control procedures that restrict initiative and creativity. The primary responsibility for the development and implementation of controls to address operational risk is assigned to senior management within each business unit. This responsibility is supported by the development of overall Group standards for the management of operational risk in the following areas:           requirements for appropriate segregation of duties, including the independent authorisation of transactions; requirements for the reconciliation and monitoring of transactions; compliance with regulatory and other legal requirements; documentation of controls and procedures; requirements for the periodic assessment of operational risks faced, and the adequacy of controls and procedures to address the risks identified; requirements for the reporting of operational losses and proposed remedial action; development of contingency plans; training and professional development; ethical and business standards; and risk mitigation, including insurance where this is effective. 45
  48. BARWA BANK Q .S.C. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As at and for the year ended 31 December 2017 4. . FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (e) Operational risks (continued) The strategy and framework for operational risk management is set by the Operational Risk Committee (ORC) and is implemented consistently across the Group. While the management of operational risk is the primary responsibility of each function or service responsible, the implementation of an integrated Operational Risk Management Framework is coordinated by a dedicated and independent team led by an Operational Risk Manager (ORM). This team reports to the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) of the Group. Each business unit has nominated a “Unit Operational Risk Manager (UORM)” who acts as a single point of contact for ORM regarding all Operational Risks for the respective business unit. The organization has also invested in a state-of-the-art Operational Risk System to create a repository for all Operational risk incidents, losses and near-miss events. There is a robust process for reporting of issues, conducting of root cause analysis (where applicable) and rolling out mitigation plans to avoid recurrence of the issues. (f) Capital management Regulatory capital The Group’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to ensure investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on owners’ return is also recognised and the Group recognises the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with greater gearing and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position. The Group and its individually regulated operations have complied with all externally imposed capital requirements throughout the period. The capital adequacy ratio of the Group is calculated in accordance with the Basel Committee guidelines as adopted by the QCB. The Group’s regulatory capital position under Basel III and QCB regulations at 31 December was as follows: Tier 1 capital Tier 2 capital Total regulatory capital 2017 6,420,808 6,420,808 2016 5,372,086 412,180 5,784,266 Eligible capital (numerator in Capital Adequecy Ratio) consists of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capitals Tier 1 consists of two parts: Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1), and Aditional Tier 1 (AT1) CET1, is part of Tier 1 capital and is the purest form of capital, which includes share capital, statutory reserves, general reserve, retained earnings, exchange translation reserve and non-controlling interests, risk reserve and other regulatory adjustments relating to items that are included in equity but are treated differently for capital adequacy calculation purposes. The bank deducts intangible assets(including goodwill) and treasury stock from CET1/ Tier1. 46

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (f) Capital management (Continued) Regulatory capital (continued) The Group is following the standardised approach for credit and market and Basic Indicator approach for operational risk as permitted by the Qatar Central Bank and as per Pillar 1 of Basel 3. Capital adequacy and the use of regulatory capital are monitored on a regular basis by the Bank's management, employing techniques based on the guidelines developed by the Basel Committee and the Qatar Central Bank. The required information is computed and monitored on monthly basis and filed with the regulators on a quarterly basis after getting reviewed by Bank appointed external auditors. In Addition to Capital standards suggested by Basel 3, the Bank is also calculating leverage ratio at consolidated level which is well above the 3% requirement suggested by BCBS ( Basel Committee for Banking Supervision) and QCB. The two liquidity standards (Liquidity Coverage Ratio and Net Stability Funding Ratio) suggested under Basel 3 accord are also fully implemented and complied by the Bank. Furthermore, these liquidity ratios are regularly being monitored by the Bank Group ALCO.

USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (a) Going concern The Group’s management has made an assessment of the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and is satisfied that the Group has resources to continue in the business for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, the management is not aware of any material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt upon the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the financial statements continue to be prepared on the going concern basis. (b) Key sources of estimation uncertainty The Group makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. (i) Allowances for credit losses Assets accounted for at amortised cost are evaluated for impairment on a basis described in significant accounting policies.The specific counterparty component of the total allowances for impairment applies to financial assets evaluated individually for impairment and is based upon management’s best estimate of the present value of the cash flows that are expected to be received. In estimating these cash flows, management makes judgments about a counterparty’s financial situation and the net realisable value of any underlying collateral. Each impaired asset is assessed on its merits, and the workout strategy and estimate of cash flows considered recoverable are independently approved by the Credit Risk function. Minimum impairment on specific counter parties are determined based on the QCB regulations. Collectively assessed impairment allowances cover credit losses inherent in portfolios of financing and investment securities measured at amortised cost with similar credit risk characteristics when there is objective evidence to suggest that they contain impaired financial assets, but the individual impaired items cannot yet be identified. In assessing the need for collective allowances, management considers factors such as credit quality, portfolio size, concentrations and economic factors. In order to estimate the required allowance, assumptions are made to define the way inherent losses are modelled and to determine the required input parameters, based on historical experience and current economic conditions. The accuracy of the allowances depends on the estimates of future cash flows for specific counterparty allowances and the model assumptions and parameters used in determining collective allowances. (ii) Goodwill Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise. (iii) Determining fair values The determination of fair value for financial assets and liabilities for which there is no observable market price requires the use of valuation techniques as described in significant accounting policies. For financial instruments that trade infrequently and have little price transparency, fair value is less objective, and requires varying degrees of judgment depending on liquidity, concentration, uncertainty of market factors, pricing assumptions and other risks affecting the specific instrument. 48

USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (CONTINUED) (c) (i) Critical accounting judgments in applying the Group’s accounting policies Valuation of financial instruments The Group’s accounting policy on fair value measurements is discussed in the significant accounting policies section. The Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.  Level 1: Quoted market price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument.  Level 2: Valuation techniques based on observable inputs, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e.  derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using: quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data. Level 3: Valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs. This category includes all instruments where the valuation technique includes inputs not based on observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument’s valuation. Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices or dealer price quotations. For all other financial instruments the Group determines fair values using valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include net present value and discounted cash flow models, comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist, Black-Scholes and polynomial option pricing models and other valuation models. Assumptions and inputs used in valuation techniques include risk-free and benchmark profit rates, credit spreads and other premia used in estimating discount rates, bond and equity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, equity and equity index prices and expected price volatilities and correlations. The objective of valuation techniques is to arrive at a fair value determination that reflects the price of the financial instrument at the reporting date, that would have been determined by market participants acting at arm’s length. 49
