  9. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN Dear Shareholders , On behalf of the Board of Directors, it gives me great pleasure to present to you Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad’s (BIMB) first Integrated Annual Report. This is my first statement for BIMB as a listed entity, since the completion of our restructuring exercise from our former parent company, BIMB Holdings Berhad (BHB). BIMB is now accorded full autonomy in undertaking and pursuing our corporate and business strategies, as Malaysia’s first full fledged pure-play Islamic financial institution on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia. This is an exciting moment for BIMB as the listing provides an advantageous position for BIMB to capitalise on the growth in Islamic finance and the Islamic capital market, and reinforces our efforts to expand our customer base. With a market capitalisation of RM6.2 billion, we are well positioned to deliver our five-year business strategy roadmap, LEAP25, which would redefine our growth and enable us to work in new ways to create stakeholder value. 2021 was a year of renewed optimism, as well as uncertainties. What was expected to be a year of recovery has brought the world to a halt with new waves of COVID-19 variants weighing down on the crucial veins of the economy. From uneven economic recovery to unequal access to vaccines, from widening income inequalities to disruptions in education, the pandemic had a disproportionate impact on the vulnerable in 2021. Aligned with our vision as a Bank that Advances Prosperity for All, BIMB responded to the challenges faced by our customers and the community by going beyond financial performance, standing alongside each of them, offering them aid to ease their difficulties. ADVANCING PROSPERITY FOR ALL At BIMB, we are confident of our ability to create sustainable value for all our stakeholders. Central to this are our clear focus on meeting customers’ expectations, our strong market position and a full suite of Shariah-compliant product offerings. We have taken a considered approach in the development and delivery of products and services, taking into account societal needs, while ensuring the efficiency of our operations to continuously improve customer experience. We continue to enhance our offerings and services, in line with the evolving banking landscape. In 2021, we launched the DuitNow QR function on BIMB’s GO Mobile Banking App and GO Biz by Bank Islam, an app targeted at Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise (MSME) customers. Sharp shifts in consumer preference to transact online have prompted us to further accelerate our ongoing digitalisation initiatives. Our efforts were recognised when we were awarded the Most Helpful Bank during COVID-19 in Malaysia and fifth in Asia Pacific, by The Asian Banker in May 2021. We also ranked fourth out of 55 Malaysian brands on KPMG’s Customer Experience Excellence Survey 2021. DEFERMENT AND ASSISTED REPAYMENT SCHEMES PEMULIH COMMENDABLE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE During the year under review, BIMB delivered a commendable performance on the back of higher fund based income and lower impairment losses. We recorded a Group Profit Before Zakat and Taxation (PBZT) of RM704.2 million, a decline of 3.3% mainly due to lower non-fund-based income and higher operating expenses. The Group has declared an interim dividend of 10.93 sen per share for the year. Our performance translates into an Earnings Per Share (EPS) of 21.87 sen and a Net Return on Equity (ROE) of 8.4% (after tax and zakat). Our sustained dividend payout is reflective of our unwavering efforts to withstand the year’s challenges, as we continue to leverage on our strong fundamentals to achieve significant milestones. 8 URUS Prihatin Flood Relief Programme Targeted Repayment Assistance PROVIDED ASSISTANCE TO OVER 154,000 RM23 CUSTOMERS INVOLVING BILLION
  10. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information Throughout 2021, to facilitate recovery from the pandemic, BIMB also provide assistance to its affected customers through various deferment and assisted repayment schemes, such as PEMULIH, Targeted Repayment Assistance, URUS and our Prihatin Flood Relief Programme. Through these various deferment schemes and measures, BIMB supported over 154,000 customers, involving RM23 billion, to help them get back on their feet. BIMB also continued its focus on the socio-economic wellbeing of the country by sustaining income generation and the financial resilience of the B40 segment and asnaf-owned businesses facing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic via our iTEKAD and BangKIT micro financing programmes. I am proud to highlight that we have exceeded our initial goal under LEAP25 helping 4,765 beneficiaries through our Islamic social finance initiatives within the first year. BIMB’s Sadaqa House has continued to make inroads among the public and its participating partners with more than RM3.3 million collected for the benefit of various causes and social projects. In 2021, we disbursed more than RM3.6 million in aid to 4,905 beneficiaries. To this end, we have played our role in helping Malaysians bounce back from a challenging climate, and we stand ready to do more in 2022 and beyond. KEEPING CUSTOMERS SAFE ONLINE BIMB’s continued focus on digitalisation and automation of its banking operational processes means that information security remains our priority. It gained particular urgency during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the use of digital platforms for banking transactions became a necessity. While we work to enhance our systems’ capability and stability, as well as making inroads into improving our customers’ access to our digital platforms, we have also taken measures to prevent unauthorised access to our customers’ personal information, ensuring they stay protected from unwarranted actions by undesirable parties. BIMB constantly reviews its security implementation to assess the vulnerabilities and control effectiveness, in addition to monitoring the latest developments in the information security threat landscape. We have made significant investments in updating our technology systems and platforms, and taken steps to establish the necessary policies, processes and procedures to enhance our general effectiveness in providing a truly secure banking experience for our customers. We also took the necessary steps to inculcate strong security awareness among our employees through frequent information security training programmes as an essential part of BIMB’s security effort. For BIMB to remain relevant and competitive in this digital age, we have been proactive in addressing the concerns of our customers and eliminating any threats that might compromise their interest. We continue to keep abreast of the latest local and global trends, as we seek to become a digitally-enabled bank, capable of providing innovative yet secure digital banking solutions, and superior customer experience. GREEN FINANCING OUTLOOK UNDER LEAP25 STRATEGY, WE AIM TO RAISE GREEN FINANCING TO 10 - 12% OF TOTAL PORTFOLIO BY 2025. 9
  11. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN COMMITTING TO SUSTAINABILITY Building on our core strength as a pioneer in the Islamic banking and finance industry , we have been on a journey incorporating principles of Shariah, Value-based Intermediation (VBI) and ESG considerations in our products and service offerings. We are committed in the mobilisation of our six strategic objectives of Sustainable Prosperity, Values-based Culture, Community Empowerment, Customer Centricity, Real Economy and Digitalisation to position us in our next phase of growth and transformation. During the year, we took major steps to cement our leadership in the areas of Green Financing and Shariahcompliant ESG Investing, both identified as growth-drivers for our business. BIMB already has one of the highest exposures to Green Financing within the Malaysian banking industry, with Green Financing accounting for approximately 4% of our total financing, which is well above the 1-2% recorded by most Malaysian banks. We are working to further build on this strength under our LEAP25 strategy, to raise this to 10-12% of our current portfolio by 2025, establishing BIMB as a dominant player in Malaysia’s growth in Green Financing. We are also helping our customers to transition to greener lifestyles, by increasing financing to areas not within the conventional definition of Green Financing, ranging from the purchase of electric vehicles to financing for households and small businesses that are switching to solar power. Our approach to sustainability, Green Financing ESG-compliant financing and investing is part of comprehensive approach to growth, which recognises embracing ESG is not just the right thing to do, but also good for business. and our that it is ENHANCING CORPORATE GOVERNANCE BIMB is committed to upholding the highest standards of corporate governance, in line with the strong values that we hold as a company. During the year, we implemented several key policies and measures to not only align with regulatory requirements but also to meet the high expectations of our stakeholders. As part of Board’s commitment to effective stewardship, we undertook a comprehensive review of the Board Charter and the Terms of Reference of the Board and the Board Committees to ensure that they are up-to-date and in line with the latest recommendation of the Securities Commission’s Malaysian Code of Corporate Governance (MCCG). We welcome the 2021 update of the MCCG for companies to integrate sustainability considerations into their strategy, which is very much in line with our commitment to strengthen our sustainability governance, our corporate strategy and our determination to play a larger role as a responsible corporate citizen. We carried out a review of the Board succession-planning for the Group to ensure we meet the recommended best practices on the tenure of Independent Directors and the composition of Independent Directors. We also recently signed up as a Corporate Advocate of the Malaysian chapter of the 30% Club, a network of corporations that are working together to increase women’s participation in the boardroom. Our corporate advocacy in the Club will help us to leverage on best practices in implementing new diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, in knowledge sharing and setting diversity targets, while contributing to the larger plan of promoting DEI in the Malaysian Islamic finance industry. PEOPLE AT THE CORE OF OUR TRANSFORMATION JOURNEY Our colleagues, from those in our head office to those at the frontlines of serving our customers and communities, remain our most valuable asset. BIMB’s Live Well programme which was introduced to promote our colleagues’ mental & 10

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information emotional wellness in 2020, was expanded to include physical, spiritual and financial wellness last year. The programme was established to assist employees in addressing their personal and work-related challenges that may adversely affect their job performance and personal well-being. By providing all 4,731 BIMB employees access to Naluri, a digital and customisable health solution, we have empowered our colleagues to manage their own mental and physical health in the most effective ways. BIMB has also offered support by providing employees the solutions, insights, tools, and access to relevant experts for them to seek professional help for their problems. The prolonged pandemic also presented us with an opportunity to embrace a hybrid workplace model that seamlessly combines remote and office work. We are committed to investing in technology to enable better efficiency and accessibility to services that will produce a more conducive working environment. HUMANE, our human capital management system introduced in 2021 has accommodated our evolving workforce needs. Being cloud based, it allows efficient access to data and information, streamlining our human capital management process, contributing to better talent recruitment, and improved learning and development experience for employees. The Group’s efforts to improve internal capabilities have been continuous. Our current focus on developing internal digital, leadership and professional certification aims to fill our people development gaps, helping to upskill and reskill them to keep abreast with the latest requirements of the finance industry. We accelerated digital literacy and adoption through an in-house Digital Upskilling Programme with the intention of nurturing our talent pool. With the establishment of our Digital Academy in 2021, we will continue to identify and build capabilities among our high potential talents, which will contribute to our succession planning and internal talent mobility efforts. All these are supported with continuous learning programmes of blended learning modules that go beyond the classroom. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS At the end of a highly eventful year for BIMB, I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to BHB’s Board members and employees for their service and contribution over the years. They have played a vital role in maintaining BHB’s position as the premier and successful Islamic financial holding company in Malaysia, before handing over the torch to BIMB in October 2021. BHB’s investments and pioneering legacy have left an indelible mark in the Islamic financial industry, which has been the stepping-stone for BIMB to shape its future as a leading Islamic financial institution. My sincere appreciation to my colleagues on the Board and to BIMB’s senior leadership team. I speak for the entire Group that we are saddened by the loss of our beloved member of the Board, Puan Noraini Che Dan. Her contributions to BHB and BIMB were invaluable and integral to the successful listing of the Group. My gratitude also goes out to Encik Zahari @ Mohd Zin Idris who retired from the Board during the year, for his service and unwavering commitment. To all our stakeholders who have been an important part of our journey thus far, I thank you for your continued support and trust. And finally, my deepest appreciation goes to all our employees for the remarkable commitment they have shown to BIMB, living our TAAT values and setting us in a good position for our exciting journey ahead.

  15. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D MESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER Dear Shareholders , THE MALAYSIAN ECONOMY EXPANDED BY 3.1%; SUPPORTED BY BNM MAINTAINING THE INTEREST RATE AT A RECORD LOW OF 1.75% THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, WITH THE LOW COST OF FUNDING SUPPORTING A REBOUND IN CONSUMPTION AND BUSINESS INVESTMENT Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (“BIMB or “the Group”) continues to evolve as a business and 2021 was a pivotal year for us. In October, we became a public-listed company, giving the Malaysian public their first opportunity to invest in Malaysia’s only public-listed, full-fledged Islamic banking group. 2021 also marked the completion of the first year of our LEAP25 corporate strategy that sets-out our goals and pathway for delivering sustainable value for our shareholders as we navigate what is increasingly being called the Next Normal. OPERATING ENVIRONMENT Our transformation journey in 2021 continued against a challenging backdrop, as the Malaysian economy faced renewed headwinds f rom the resurgence of COVID-19 cases and the banking industry itself continuing to undergo a fundamental transformation. The year began with forecasts of robust economic growth at the domestic and international levels. Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”) projected that Malaysia’s GDP would grow by 6% 7.5%, in 2021, a marked turnaround f rom the 5.6% contraction in 2020. The recovery was underpinned by rising vaccination rates, the easing of movement restrictions, the rebound in economic activity and the continued impact of the government’s stimulus spending. This favourable scenario was projected to support the performance of the Malaysian banking sector. However, the strong growth in the domestic economy was undermined by the emergence of the highly-infectious Delta and Omicron variants of COVID-19 in the second-half of the year. The resulting restrictions on movement and economic activity led to softer economic conditions. Despite these challenges, the Malaysian economy expanded by 3.1% for the year as a whole. The expansion was supported by BNM maintaining the interest rate at a record low of 1.75% throughout the year, with the low cost of funding supporting a rebound in consumption and business investment. However, the low-rate environment has also led to compressed interest rate margins across the banking industry, which has negatively impacted the banking sector’s profitability. Notwithstanding these challenges, the Malaysian banking industry showed remarkable resilience during the year. Financing growth in 2021 returned to pre-pandemic levels, rising by 4.1%, up from the 3% financing growth the year 14
  16. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information Sustainable Prosperity Values-based Culture SIX PILLARS OF LEAP25 Digitalisation Real Economy before. At the same time, the ratio of non-performing financings in the Malaysian banking sector also declined to 1.4% in 2021, from the 1.6% recorded the year before. The improvement was driven by the household segment as banks continued to support viable borrowers facing temporary financial diff iculties by offering repayment assistance packages. BIMB continued to outperform the banking sector as a whole in both key areas. Our non-performing financing ratio for the year stood at 0.96%, even as our financing growth for the year rose by 6.4%. The strength of our performance in these areas reflects the effectiveness of the LEAP25 growth strategy that we have implemented. Community Empowerment CustomerCentricity Alongside the unique challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen the acceleration of larger trends that are reshaping the banking industry itself. The shift to digital banking, the disruption caused by the rise of FinTech firms and the growing pressure for financiers to incorporate ESG considerations into their lending practices are reshaping the banking landscape itself. STRATEGY AND TRANSFORMATION At the heart of our strategy is our commitment to our values and purpose as an Islamic banking institution. The strong ethical framework gives us a major asset as the world embraces values-based f inancing. Building on our core strengths, BIMB aims to be a champion in offering Shariah Environmental, Social and Governance (“Shariah-ESG”) total financial solutions and to establish its leadership in social finance and digital banking. Our roadmap for delivering these goals is laid-out in our LEAP25 corporate strategy plan, which was launched at the end of 2020. LEAP25 sets clear targets for the next f ive years, of growing our asset size to over RM100 billion, doubling our ESG-rated financing, sustaining superior industry Return-on-Equity, increasing our nonfund-based income contribution, creating a positive social impact and retaining high-performing talent. These targets are anchored by the six pillars of Sustainable Prosperity, Values-based Culture, Community Empowerment, Customer-Centricity, Real Economy and Digitalisation. To achieve this aim, we are configuring our business around delivering cuttingedge products, enhancing customers’ experience, accelerating our digital initiatives and deepening our strategic collaborations. As we navigated the challenging backdrop of 2021, we actively executed growth strategies that are aligned with our LEAP25 targets. During the year, we expanded our Green Financing portfolio, actively pursued the non-Muslim consumer market and accelerated digitalisation across all areas of our business and operations. The effective execution of our strategy had a visible impact on our business performance and we aim to pick up the pace of transformation going forward. While we have now entered a new phase of our growth strategy, our intention remains the same – to create sustainable value for our shareholders and delivering on our aim of being the Bank that Advances Prosperity for All. 15
  17. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D MESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OUR PERFORMANCE I am pleased to share with you that BIMB delivered a commendable set of operational and f inancial results , despite the challenging operating environment and growing digital disruption in the banking landscape. Total revenue for the year stood at RM3,167.8 million. This marked a decline of 5.2% from 2020, reflecting the subdued economic environment and the continued impact of low interest rates. For 2021, we achieved a Profit Before Tax and Zakat (PBZT) of RM704.2 million, which was 3.3% lower than the previous year. The decrease in PBZT during the year was mainly due to lower non-fund-based income, which was attributable to lower net gain from the sale of investment securities, and higher operating expenses. The higher operating expenses were inevitable as we increased our investment in technological inf rastructure for our digitalisation agenda. This was offset by a lower modification loss arising from the financing moratorium granted to customers. SEGMENTAL PERFORMANCE The impact of our transformation strategy was visible across all areas of our business segments during the year, as we continue to focus on capturing new markets, delivering a truly engaging customer experience and leveraging on technology to drive growth. Our Consumer Banking business grew strongly, despite the challenging environment. Consumer Banking remains our biggest earner and we have continued to innovate in this area, driving its continued growth. Net income for the segment rose by 13.4% to RM1.2 billion in 2021. The rise was 16 SEGMENTAL NET INCOME CONSUMER BANKING: RM1.2 billion CORPORATE & COMMERCIAL RM415.6 million TREASURY RM241.4 million driven, mainly, by higher net fund-based income during the year. Our Consumer Banking business continued to build on its core strengths, with our market share rising from 4.7% to 4.8%. Growth in our Consumer Banking financing portfolio was driven, mainly, by the rise in home financing and this trend is set to continue. Malaysia has a young, favourable demographic that supports continued household formation, which will underpin demand for our Islamic home financing products. Our strategy for Consumer Banking recognises that we need to continue diversifying our offerings to keep delivering growth. Among the key strategies that we implemented in 2021 was to expand our targeting of the nonMuslim market segment and actively work to grow our Green Financing portfolio. Competition for these markets remains intense and we implemented key measures to drive growth, including simplifying our financing process by implementing the Consumer Financing Process Review. We also intensif ied digitalisation for lead generation via digital platforms to deliver more convenient and personalised services to customers. Our Consumer Banking saw minimal demand for assistance under the Financial Management and Resilience Programme (“URUS”) programme during the year. As massive floods hit the country in late November 2021, BIMB responded by launching its Prihatin Programme for Flood and Disaster Relief Facility (“DRF”) to assist flood-affected individuals and business f inancing customers in need of help. In line with our values, we will continue to offer financial support to customers in need, as parts of society continue to feel the strain from the impact of COVID-19. Our Corporate and Commercial Banking business delivered a strong performance as our customer-centric approach, strong commercial relationships and focus on growth sectors allowed us to capitalise on improvements in the national economy. Net income for the year rose by 6.5% to RM415.6 million. Throughout the year, Commercial Banking acted decisively to support our existing customers affected by the pandemic, including through assistance in instalment deferment, as well as by the rescheduling and restructuring of facilities. These measures were in line with the f inancial assistance programm es introduced by th e Government to support the national economy. The performance of our Commercial business was negatively impacted by the overhang in the property market in 2021. However, we continued to develop new opportunities in property f inancing by targeting growing sectors, such as affordable housing. We also expanded our Green

Our Treasury business registered net income of RM241.4 million for the period. The f igure was 47.1% lower than the previous year, reflecting the impact of the challenging economic environment. The decline in Treasury’s net income for 2021 was attributable to lower net gain f rom the sale of investment securities. Going forward, Treasury will maintain a cautious approach to trading activities and remain prudent in its investment portfolio management and rebalancing activities. Our focus will be on growing fund-based income potential and implementing strategies to enhance yield pick-up. ACCELERATING DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION Digitalisation is one of the six pillars supporting our LEAP25 growth strategy and we are focused on enhancing our digital offerings, so that we are not just on par with our peers and competitors but emerge as a clear leader in digital banking. Central to our digital strategy is the effective leveraging of the vast amounts of data that we generate, in order to deliver a seamless and hyperpersonalised customer experience across all our channels. GO by Bank Islam NUMBER OF ACTIVE USERS 849,000 79% TOTAL NUMBER OF FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS 47 million The banking landscape is evolving rapidly with the growth of online banking, e-payment systems and the rise of the FinTech companies, as consumers embrace online banking and e-commerce. The shift towards online transactions has been greatly accelerated by the pandemic and is forcing businesses to develop new strategies that adapt to and anticipate the changes, and BIMB has taken decisive action to capitalise on this opportunity. This shift in consumer preference and the enhancements that we have already made to our digital offerings have driven rapid growth in our digital operations, with more than 90% of our transactions now conducted through electronic channels. The number of customers using our internet banking rose by 22% during the year, to 1.5 million, while the number of internet banking transactions grew even faster, rising by 50%. 17
  19. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D MESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER The growth in our mobile banking services has been even more impressive . Our multiple award-winning GO by Bank Islam mobile banking app saw massive growth as we continued to rollout new features. The number of active users on GO by Bank Islam increased by 79% in 2021, to reach 849,000. At the same time, the total number of transactions on GO by Bank Islam tripled to reach 47 million, far exceeding our target of 21 million transactions for the year. As we move forward, we will continue to build on this momentum by accelerating the roll-out of new features on GO by Bank Islam. We further extended our mobile banking offerings with the launch of the GO Biz by Bank Islam mobile app in July, which is targeted at SMEs and micro businesses. The app allows small merchants to manage their day-to-day business quickly and securely f rom their mobile devices. The app has been well-received and we on-boarded more than 7,000 merchants by the end of the year. Even as we have grown our digital banking services, we have seen the traditional banking and financial model face serious disruption from the rise of the FinTech start-ups. The FinTech’s have rapidly leveraged on their greater agility and an accommodating regulatory landscape to drive innovation in the industry. At BIMB, we see this as an opportunity and we have actively embraced collaboration with selected FinTech’s in order to sharpen our own digital delivery. We aim to amplify the impact of these collaborations by leveraging on our unique advantages, credibility, large customer base, access to huge amounts of data and financial resources. Above all, we aim to enhance the impact of these collaborations by leveraging on the unique branding and position that we hold as Malaysia’s leading Islamic bank. 18 Our digital growth strategy goes far beyond collaborations and enhancements. In 2020, we established the Centre of Digital Experience, or CDX, to drive innovation by experimenting with new business models and technology, and to assess the feasibility of their adoption by BIMB. CDX has embraced the opportunities for disruptive innovation that have arisen during the pandemic. We recognise that the shift to new technologies carries execution and security risks and we have acted to minimise these risks by ring-fencing CDX from the rest of BIMB. We have also continued to leverage on digitalisation to drive operational efficiency across our company through increased process automation. A key initiative during the year was the accelerated implementation of Robotics Process Automation, which has allowed our staff to automate business processes on their own, cutting down on the number of work hours spent on routine tasks.

To deliver on this, we have aligned our overall workforce strategy with the aspirations of the Group’s LEAP25 strategic plan. For BIMB to progress and remain relevant in the face of the ever-challenging environment and increasingly competitive marketplace, developing our peoples’ capabilities, as well as creating the appropriate culture and values are of utmost importance. Digitalisation is at the heart of our corporate transformation and to ensure that our people are armed with the right skills to continue contributing to the continued growth of the bank, we have stepped-up investment in digital training. In 2021 we established our inhouse Digital Academy and expanded our Digital Upskilling Programme, which offers training and certification, as we work to build a workforce that is both customer-focused and digitally-savvy. and keep the right people. To that end, we continue to work hard on positioning BIMB as an employer of choice and our success in this area is seen in the consistently high rankings that BIMB receives in graduate employment surveys. EMBEDDING SUSTAINABILITY INTO OUR BUSINESS Our commitment to sustainability is deeply embedded in our business model as an Islamic bank and value-based intermediary. Islamic finance and ESG investing offer complementary capital-raising and investment approaches with many shared principles, such as being a good steward to society and the environment. This strong confluence of principles allows us to use a market-based approach to supporting our sustainability goals. As a key part of delivering this goal, BIMB is working to integrate a comprehensive ESG framework into our credit assessment process, which we aim to implement in 2022. One of the key drivers for our business growth and achieving our sustainability goals is our focus on growing our Green Financing portfolio, which stood at more than RM2 billion at the end of 2021. Much of this financing has been directed to the Renewable Energy Green Building sector, thus far. As we move forward, we are now actively aiming to expand our presence in the wider green economy ecosystem, with a focus on mini-hydro and solar farm projects. Digitalisation is also the key in us being able to better serve our employees. The implementation of HUMANE is specifically geared towards fulfilling our human capital needs via a cloud-based self-service digital platform. With a userfriendly interface, the platform gives our employees the ability to manage their training progression as well as access career-related details such as payroll information, benefits and leave entitlements. Competition for top talent remains fierce, and BIMB continues to refine our recruitment and reward structures to ensure that we are able to attract 19
  21. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D MESSAGE FROM THE GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER A key concern of Islamic finance is to eliminate poverty and serve human welfare , which aligns strongly with the objectives of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (“UNSDG”). We took a landmark step in this direction during the year, when BIMB Investment launched Malaysia’s first Waqf Featured Unit Trust Fund in March 2021. The Fund is an inclusive economic instrument based on philanthropic principles that aims to provide underserved members of society with access to quality essential services and is recognised as a Qualified Sustainable and Responsible Investment (“SRI”) Fund under the Securities Commission (SC) Guidelines on Sustainable and Responsible Investment Funds. With its launch, BIMB Investment became the first fund management company to structure and design a waqf unit trust fund following the introduction of the Waqf-Featured Fund Framework by the SC in November 2020. As we move forward, we will continue to innovate in the area of social finance, not just because it makes good business sense, but also because it is an essential part of our identity as an Islamic banking and financial group. Alongside integrating ESG considerations into our business, we are also working to reduce the negative environmental impact of our operations. We have launched a green branch initiative that will see the introduction of solar panels, rainwater harvesting, energy efficient lighting systems and auto sensors at selected BIMB branches. The concept will be trialled at our Temerloh branch. OUTLOOK BIMB anticipates a stronger performance in the year ahead, supported by a rebound in the Malaysian economy and higher growth in our targeted financing areas and we have actively positioned ourselves to capitalise on the continuing recovery. 20 BNM forecasts the Malaysian economy to grow at 5.5% - 6.5% in 2022. The growth of the economy will be supported by the pump-priming impact of Budget 2022. The total budget of RM332.1 billion, which includes targeted spending programmes, will have a strong multiplier effect across key sectors of the economy. Additionally, the further reopening of international borders will also boost Malaysia’s vital tourism industry, with strong positive spillover effects on other key sectors of the economy. In addition, the launch of the government’s 12th Malaysian Plan will further catalyse growth over the period 2021 to 2025. The plan emphasises growth in high impact projects in infrastructure, technology, and efforts towards greening the economy. Under the Plan, the contribution of renewable energy within the national energy mix is set to increase, which will support our push to expand our Green Financing portfolio. The national economy will also continue to benefit from the prevailing low interest rate environment. Many analysts expect BNM to maintain its Overnight Policy Rate (“OPR”) at the current record low of 1.75% throughout the first-half of 2022, and see the growing possibility of a rate-hike in the second half of the year, in line with the global trend towards monetary tightening.
  22. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information The projected rebound, however, will not mean a return to the status-quoante and BIMB is actively positioning itself to capitalise on key trends that will define the next normal. Sustainability considerations will continue to move to the centre of business and f inance, with the SC integrating them into their latest updates to the Malaysian Code of Corporate Governance and BNM placing the transition to a greener economy at the heart of its new five-year Financial Services Blueprint 2022 – 2026. We welcome these initiatives as they play to our strengths and are aligned with our own business strategy. Competition in the area of Green Financing will intensify as banks increase the target size of their green portfolios. However, we believe that our strong track record in Green Financing, deep network of relationships in the Malaysian corporate world and our established position as a values-based lender gives us a competitive edge in this area. Malaysia’s economic rebound will also be supported by continued global growth, with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) projecting that world economy will grow by 4.4% in 2022. Key domestic industries, such as manufacturing and services, are set to benefit from the global economic recovery as Malaysia is highly integrated into global supply chains. Questions about the strength of the global recovery persist, though. The ongoing disruption in global supply chains, rising inflation and energy prices, and growing geopolitical tensions centred on Eastern Europe all add elements of uncertainty to the global growth projections. Notwithstanding these risks, 2022 looks set to be a year of continued recovery. One of the most lasting impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic has been the growth of digitalisation. The digital economy accounted for 22.6% of Malaysia’s GDP by the end of 2021, but is projected to grow to 25.5% of GDP by 2025, driven by a rise in e-commerce and digital finance. To capitalise on this opportunity we will continue to invest in ensuring that we have the right people, the right technology and the right strategy to deliver the customised solutions that digital customers demand. customer-centricity at the heart of our business, widening our offerings and embedding digitalisation into all areas of our business and operations. This is how we will unlock new growth opportunities and this is how we will continue building sustainable value for our stakeholders. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I wish to thank our customers for the support that they have shown us as we continue our transformation journey. I would also like to express my appreciation to our shareholders, who have placed their trust in us. We will continue working to be worthy of their confidence. I wish to express my particular gratitude to our Chairman and Board of Directors for their effective stewardship of our company as we navigated the challenges of the last year. I also wish to thank my colleagues in the BIMB leadership team for the excellent job that they have done. I look forward to continuing to work with you in the year ahead.

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D OPERATING ENVIRONMENT & KEY MARKET TRENDS BIMB’s ability to continue creating value for our stakeholders is strongly tied to our ability to navigate the fast-evolving operating environment. Our external operating context has a direct impact on our profitability, the risks that we face and our strategic decision-making. TRENDS Trend 1 MODERATE ECONOMIC RECOVERY DESCRIPTION IMPACT The Malaysian economy returned to growth in 2021, despite the ongoing challenges arising from the pandemic. The recovery came with a high degree of uncertainty, though, as the government imposed various measures throughout the year to halt a resurgence in the number of COVID-19 cases. The government’s reimposition of a total lockdown in the middle of the year hit economic growth, undermining BNM’s original forecast of a 6% to 7.5% expansion in GDP for the year. The gradual lifting of movement restrictions and the resumption of most economic activity, as well as the acceleration of the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme, continued government stimulus and the spillover effect of the global economic recovery, supported a pick-up in growth, and the country saw a GDP expansion of 3.1% for the year. GDP Growth (%) 6 5 4 3 4.4 5.8 48 4.4 3.1 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5 -6 Trend 2 INTEREST RATES AND OTHER FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCES 46 -5.6 ‘16 ‘17 ‘18 ‘19 ‘20 ‘21 In direct response to the pandemic, BNM progressively reduced the interest rate to a record low of 1.75% in 2020 and maintained it at that level all through 2021. The record low rate supported a rebound in consumption and business investment but also led to compressed interest rate margins across the banking industry, which has negatively impacted the banking sector’s profitability. BNM’s sharp rate cuts and decision to maintain low interest rates is in line with the actions of central banks around the world. The low rate environment has supported a global economic recovery but has also led to growing inflationary pressure in the international financial system. • The subdued economic growth in 2021 and weak consumer sentiment in the first half of the year resulted in a less-supportive environment for the banking industry than had originally been forecast. • The shifting economic outlook throughout the year had a strong impact on consumer sentiment and behaviour. The Consumer Sentiment Index (CSI) remained below the 100-point threshold level, which indicates optimism, throughout the first half of the year, as consumers remained cautious due to the continued impact of COVID-19. The CSI fell to a low of 64.3 points in the second quarter of the year, following the reimpositon of the Movement Control Order (MCO) in May. The gradual reopening of the economy led to a rebound in consumer conf idence in the second half of the year, with the CSI rising to 101.7 in the third quarter of 2021. This marked the first time the index had risen above the 100-point optimism threshold since the third quarter of 2018. • Low interest rates led to margin compression, which has impacted top line performance throughout the banking sector. • Conversely, the low cost of funding encouraged businesses and consumers to seek new loans. Financing growth in Malaysia rose to 4.1% in 2021, similar to the prepandemic figure in 2019. • Inflationary pressure rose in 2021 and became more prominent in the second half of the year due to a combination of easy-money policies, rebounding consumer demand and growing production and logistics bottlenecks.
  48. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation    MD&A   Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information STRATEGIC REVIEW The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remained pervasive across all areas of our operating environment in 2021, but society and businesses have effectively adapted to the new reality. At BIMB, the robust measures that we instituted in response to COVID-19 in 2020 proved adequate to allowing us to manage the continued impact of the pandemic in 2021. As always, the new year offered both new challenges and new opportunities. This section sets-out how we managed the former and worked to capitalise on the latter in 2022. HOW WE RESPONDED • We targeted our business towards areas of the economy that offered strong growth prospects during the year. Our Consumer Banking business continued to focus on demand from the household sector. Our Corporate and Commercial business expanded in areas including finance for affordable housing and Green Financing. • We worked closely with our customers and clients to ensure that they had the necessary support, including by offering financing deferrals and the restructuring of facilities. • We continued to provide social finance and forms of direct support to vulnerable segments of society that remained affected by the challenging economic conditions. • BIMB continued to diversify our noninterest income as a hedge against interest rate movements. • We tapped into the growing demand for financing from consumers and businesses eager to take advantage of lower interest rates, resulting in our f inancing book growing by 6.4% in 2021, which is considerably above the industry average. OUTLOOK LINK TO BNM projects that the Malaysian economy will grow by 5.5% in 2022, driven by a recovery in domestic demand and stronger growth in the external sector. The recovery will be supported by the shift to the endemic phase of COVID-19, the pump-priming impact of Budget 2022, a stronger labour market, the gradual reopening of international borders and strong global growth, all of which will be supportive of a stronger performance by BIMB. The growth prospects for the economy come with downside risk, though. Disruption to global supply chains, rising inflation and energy prices, and growing geopolitical tensions add a high degree of uncertainty and BIMB will maintain a prudent stance as we move forward. Capital We expect BNM to maintain the current record low interest rate of 1.75% throughout the first half of 2022. We see a higher possibility of a rate hike in the second-half of the year, in order to curb inflationary pressure, but the timing or actual occurrence of any rate hike will be subject to prevailing economic conditions.

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D OPERATING ENVIRONMENT & KEY MARKET TRENDS TRENDS Trend 3 DIGITALISATION DESCRIPTION IMPACT The banking and financial services landscape is rapidly being reshaped by digital technology with the growth of online banks, e-payment systems and the rise of the FinTech companies, as consumers embrace online banking and e-commerce. The COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly accelerated the shift towards online transactions as consumers demanded non-touch options and movement restrictions made online shopping a more convenient option. The traditional banking model also continued to face disruption from the rise of the FinTech’s start-ups, which have continued to drive innovation in the industry by leveraging on their greater agility and a regulatory landscape that has fast-evolved to accommodate them. Rapid digitalisation has also seen a rise in cybersecurity risks, with the total number of cyber-attacks reaching a new global all-time high in 2021, as criminals developed new attack tools and exploited the rapid shift to online services.

More than 90% of BIMB’s transactions are now conducted through electronic channels. The number of our Internet Banking users rose by 22%, to 1.5 million during the year, with the total number of internet banking transactions rising by 50%. • Malaysia, like many other countries, saw a rise in the number and intensity of cyber threats during the year. National cybersecurity agency, MyCert, received more than 10,000 reports of cybersecurity incidents in 2021, with 71% of them related to fraud. Total Financial Transaction Volume (Million) 20’ 21’ Banks have had to respond to the surge in demand f o r o n l i n e s e r v i c e s by developing new strategies and products and increasing their capacity to handle digital transactions. • Our GO by Bank Islam mobile banking app saw a 79% surge in user numbers, to reach 849,000 users, and the total number of transactions on the app tripled to reach 47 million.

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation    MD&A   Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information STRATEGIC REVIEW HOW WE RESPONDED • Digitalisation is one of the six pillars supporting our LEAP25 growth strategy and we continued to invest heavily in our digital infrastructure and services in 2021. This included spending to harden our cybersecurity defences in order to ensure the integrity of our systems and to safeguard our customers’ data. • We rolled-out a range of enhancements to our GO by Bank Islam app and online banking services to meet the evolving needs of our customers. • We introduced GO Biz by Bank Islam app to capture growth in the small and micro-entrepreneur market and launched a collaborative effort with target microentrepreneur groups to help them migrate their transactions online. • OUTLOOK • Malaysia’s digital economy is projected to grow from 22.6% of GDP at the end of 2021 to 25.5% of GDP by 2025 and banks will have to continue adapting to the accelerating shift by governments, businesses and consumers towards online and digital transactions. This fundamental shift will continue driving demand for our digital services. • LINK TO Capital Stakeholders Material Matters The award of five (5) digital banking licenses by BNM in 2022 will drive innovation and excite the industry as consumers will soon have a breadth of options to choose from in how they transact and manage their finances. In 2020, BIMB Invest launched its Shariah Sustainability Robo-Intelligence digital investment platform called "BEST Invest" to help investors build their portfolios, offering a range of Shariah-ESG unit trust funds. The award-winning app has garnered more than 15,000 users at the end of 2021. BIMB Invest shall continue to enhance the app from time to time for better user experience. 49

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D OPERATING ENVIRONMENT & KEY MARKET TRENDS TRENDS Trend 4 WORKFORCE CHALLENGES Trend 5 SUSTAINABILITY CONCERNS AND CLIMATE CHANGE DESCRIPTION IMPACT It is essential that we have the right people in our workforce in order to deliver on our growth strategy and execute our corporate transformation plans. Competition for talent remains intense, though, and the labour market has also faced disruption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has seen many qualified individuals opt for gig jobs and remote working, rather than traditional corporate careers. As a values-based financier, we face the added dimension of ensuring that our people are aligned with our strong corporate values.

This has led to the lending practices of banks, including BIMB, coming under increased scrutiny, with growing demand for transparency about their environmental impact from regulators, clients, investors and other stakeholders. On the domestic regulatory front, both the SC and BNM released rules and guidelines during the year that emphasised the need for companies to integrate sustainability considerations into corporate strategy and corporate governance. This marks another step towards the emergence of a green economy framework for the nation. Number of Green Technology Customers 8 30 31 • The massive changes in the operating environment since the beginning o f t h e pa n d e m i c h ave revealed gaps in skills and preparedness in the human resources base across the economy, as businesses were forced to adapt to labour disruptions, new ways of working and increased digitalisation. • A key development over the last several years has been the strong growth in appetite for climate-aligned and net-zero investment opportunities across Asia, with many investors now conducting carbon footprint analysis. This mirrors the global growth in demand for ESG-compliant investments. • T i g h te r e n v i r o n m e n t a l regulations are gradually changing lending practices as banks start to incorporate ESG considerations into their f inancing evaluation processes.

To build the workforce that we need, we intensif ied investment in our human capital to ensure that we are able to recruit and retain the right people, and continued upskilling our existing workers. We sharpened digital skills training across our workforce so that our people can better deliver on our goal of customer-centricity, as well as to achieve productivity gains in a tight labour market. The challenge of being able to attract and retain the right people will remain constant, as the nature of the skills needed by BIMB and our peers and competitors will continue to evolve as we seek to stay ahead of the rapid changes that are reshaping the business and banking landscape. Accordingly, we will continue to look at our recruitment and reward practices to ensure that we remain an employer of choice for the people that we are seeking to attract. Capital • As the global effort to tackle climate change grows, BIMB is moving rapidly to take a leading role in contributing to Malaysia’s transition to a lower-carbon economy. Under our LEAP25 strategy, we aim to double our Shariah-ESG financing from the current 4% of total financing by 2025. Moving forward, we are optimistic about the growing opportunities the transition to a low-carbon economy will present for BIMB, including through increased green and sustainable infrastructure finance capabilities. Capital Stakeholders Material Matters Stakeholders Material Matters • Additionally, we continued to expand our range of Shariah-ESG investment products to capitalise on growing demand for sustainable investments. • We are also working to integrate a comprehensive ESG framework and deeper climate change analysis into our credit evaluation process by mid-2022. 51
  53. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D OPERATING ENVIRONMENT & KEY MARKET TRENDS TRENDS Trend 6 GEOPOLITICS DESCRIPTION The banking industry is strongly affected by geopolitical developments, which have implications for our operating environment. Beyond the regulatory and policy changes and other direct impacts that might result from political changes, political volatility also influences customer and client needs and behaviour. On the domestic front, Malaysia saw a change of government in September, with a period of uncertainty leading-up to that change. On the international stage, the biggest development was the inauguration of the new Biden administration in the United States, which has led to a series of changes in economic and strategic policies that have had global ramifications. IMPACT • In Malaysia, the change of government and the accompanying changes in various policies, including the easing of movement restrictions and continued pump-priming were supportive of economic growth, and the new government’s more clearly def ined policies to grow the green economy play to BIMB's strengths. • Globally, the economy and wider operating environment continued to be impacted by a range of issues including the continuing trade tensions between the US and China, the decision to restrict oil production by the OPEC+ group and rising tensions in Eastern Europe. 52

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation    MD&A   Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information STRATEGIC REVIEW HOW WE RESPONDED • BIMB continuously ref ines our risk management f ramework, which has allowed us to mitigate the impact of geopolitical risks that manifest through various channels. This includes the use of currency hedging strategies to manage the effects of volatility in international exchange rates. • We embraced the opportunity to further grow our Green Financing portfolio offered by the new Malaysian government’s increased emphasis on the green economy under Budget 2022 and the 12th Malaysia Plan. OUTLOOK The geopolitical outlook for the year ahead and the medium-term beyond remains highly unpredictable. Geopolitical tensions centred on Eastern Europe have the potential to be highly disruptive to the economic recovery that had been projected to gather pace in 2022. On the domestic front, investors and businesses will continue to take note of political developments ahead of a general election that must be called by May 2023. As we move forward, BIMB will continue to monitor and strengthen the prudential safeguards that we have in place. LINK TO Capital Stakeholders Material Matters 53

Our process includes raising awareness of how our customers and our network of stakeholders can address some of these issues through responsible business practices and responsible investments. Through VBI and Shariah-compliant financing, we will continue to strengthen our orientation to the SDGs relevant to Malaysia and where our local industry and leaders can meaningfully make a difference. IDENTIFICATION We identify matters that may impact the execution of our strategy. This is a group-wide effort taking into account input from all business and support units, and incorporating feedback from stakeholders. PRIORITISATION From the list of identified matters, we prioritise those that most significantly impact our ability to successfully execute our strategy and deliver long-term value to our stakeholders. VALIDATION Those matters that are material to value creation are integrated into our balanced scorecard, which is used to set objectives, drive behaviours, measure performance and determine the remuneration of our people. Responsible Finance We commit ourselves to upholding societal and environmental responsibilities by bringing to the market solutions that promote economic and social benefits. We make a conscious decision to design ethical products and incorporate integrity into our services for the good of all. We support ethical projects and customers in catalysing a multiplier effect to the positive impact they bring. UN SDGs 55

  63. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D STRATEGIC ROADMAP : LEAP25 BIMB aims to be a champion in offering Shariah Environmental, Social and Governance (Shariah ESG) total financial solutions and to establish its leadership in social finance and digital banking. Our roadmap for delivering on these goals is laid-out in our new LEAP25 corporate strategy, which sets clear targets to be reached by 2025 of: Growing our asset size to over RM100 billion Doubling our ESG-rated financing Reducing our cost-to-income ratio below 50% Sustaining superior industry Return-on-Equity of above 15% Increasing our non-fund-based income contribution Creating a positive social impact Nurturing and retaining high-performing talent The LEAP25 strategy is anchored on six strategic pillars that are rooted in and reinforce BIMB’s status as a Values-Based Intermediary (VBI). The strategies aligned with these six pillars provide us with the resilience to navigate the uncertain post-pandemic operating environment that is increasingly being referred to as the next normal. 62

Upholding Shariah goals and the principles of VBI. Sustainable Prosperity Values-based Culture Spearheading the development of a Halal digital community and empowering our customers to engage with us in the way that they want to. Digitalisation CustomerCentricity Real Economy Growing wealth in the economy on equitable terms. Placing our customers at the heart of all our planning and decision-making. Community Empowerment Becoming the community ’s preferred Islamic finance provider and delivering on our responsibilities as a committed corporate citizen. Our strategic pillars are tightly integrated and their components are complementary, with benefits from improvements in one reinforcing progress across the others. For example, to better meet our clients’ needs, we increased our focus on digitalisation and expanded our product offerings. This, in turn, improves the Group’s resilience, supports diversification, drives efficiency and reduces cost and operational risk, while providing an improved experience for our customers. Our continued growth will be driven by our transformation as we implement the strategies defined by these six pillars, cementing our aspiration towards leadership in digital banking and social finance. 63
  65. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D STRATEGIC PERFORMANCE REVIEW STRATEGIC PILLARS 1 : SUSTAINABLE PROSPERITY BIMB’s commitment to delivering sustainable prosperity is both a growth opportunity and a values-based obligation. The pillar encompasses both the actions that we take to strengthen the financial position of the Group and our commitment to growing sustainable finance business. The effectiveness of the strategies implemented to strengthen our financial position saw us sustaining performance on a range of key targets, including Return on Equity (ROE), Return on Assets (ROA) and above-industry growth in our deposits, financing and assets. A fuller discussion of our strong performance across our key financial metrics can be found in our GCFO’s Statement on pages 72 to 75. Our sustainable prosperity initiatives are closely tied to our LEAP25 targets of growing our non-fund-based income contribution and doubling our ESG-rated f inancing by 2025. Despite the continued challenges of the operating environment in 2021, we took substantial steps towards delivering on these targets during the year, both in terms of diversifying our income streams and on growing our Green Financing. 64 With the impact of the record-low interest rate environment being felt on the performance of the entire Malaysian banking industry, we continued to pursue strategies to grow our fee-based income as an effective hedge and to strengthen future income streams, resulting in a sustained non-fund-based income ratio of 11.1% for the year. Across the Group, we implemented effective strategies to diversify our revenue streams and build a more sustainable income model. This includes strategies to embark on an Integrated Wealth Management Business model, such as developing capabilities in big data, customer segmentation and group cross-selling synergy. Since the SME division was carved out and established in 2018, the Bank has stayed the course to advance from a financing-centric to ecosystem play in terms of its Enterprises portfolio, leveraging on the Halal platform. Through its Wholesale Banking proposition, the Bank intends to promote purposeful mobilisation of capital to help clients achieve sustainable growth. This means a higher business portfolio growth f rom Corporate and
  66.

Initiatives have been put in place for greater business synergy such as account planning and synchronisation of digital capabilities. Our Consumer Banking Division continued to strengthen collaboration with various professional associations, as well as running targeted promotions aimed at government servants. By offering products and services tailored to these specific segments, we aim to grow our market penetration of the more resilient mass-affluent sector. At the same time, our Corporate Banking Division continued to pursue growth by focusing on supporting the essential economic areas of Healthcare, Food, Infrastructure, Plantations, Green Technology and Renewable Energy. By maintaining a focus on strategic partnerships and strong customer service, it aims to cultivate, nurture and grow high-quality new customers in the targeted sectors in order to maintain the strength of its asset quality and income streams. The examples above are just some of the many measures that BIMB is taking in-order to increase our resilience and ensure the sustainability of our business. A fuller description of the specific actions in this direction taken by our various business divisions can be found in the Business Review section of this report on pages 84 to 105. The continued evolution of the Malaysian economy will be impacted by advances in sustainable technologies and the rising demand for sustainable financing options. This will require BIMB, and the Malaysian banking sector, to keep adapting to be able to support new, emerging, industries and help customers in impacted industries transition. BIMB has already taken substantial steps in this direction and our success in these areas is measurable. Under our LEAP25 strategy, we aim to double our ShariahESG rated financing assets by 2025, establishing us as a dominant player in Malaysia’s Green Financing industry. We have already made substantial progress towards this goal. At the end of 2021, our Green Financing stood at RM2.2 billion, accounting for 4% of our total financing portfolio, and about 2.8% of our total assets. Analysts see this well above the 1% to 2% of most other banks in the country. With the Malaysian government giving greater priority to the green economy under the 12th Malaysia Plan (2022-2026), the degree of competition in the Green Financing market is set to intensify. BIMB believes that we will maintain a strong competitive advantage though, backed by our sustained track record in Green Financing, our strategic relationships in the Malaysian corporate world and our leading position as a values-based financier. It is not just demand for Green Financing that is set to drive growth in our sustainable finance operations; the appetite for ESG-compliant investments has also risen sharply. Building on our strength as a global leader in Shariah-ESG investment funds, we have continued to grow the number and size of sustainable investment products that we offer. As of 2021, Shariah-ESG funds accounted for more than 65% of our total RM1.43 billion in assets under management, and we have continued to drive innovation in this area. In 2021, for example, we launched Malaysia’s first Waqf Featured Unit Trust Fund in March 2021. We also continued to capitalise on the demand for ethical and Shariah-compliant financing instruments by serving as lead manager or joint lead manager on 15 sukuk issues that qualified for an ESG rating in 2021. Moving forward, we will continue to push the frontiers in the Shariah-ESG investments industry in line both with our growth strategy and with our values as an Islamic bank. 65
  67. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D STRATEGIC PERFORMANCE REVIEW STRATEGIC PILLARS 2 : VALUES-BASED CULTURE At BIMB, our growth strategy and corporate culture are underpinned by our strong values as an Islamic banking institution and VBI. Our Shariah governance framework establishes our form as an Islamic Bank, but it is our commitment to our values that enables us to achieve the intended outcomes of Islamic Finance. We believe that our robust ethical framework will be a major asset as the world increasingly embraces values-based financing and investment practices, and us embedding them it into every aspect of our business and operations and at the very heart of our growth strategy. Accordingly, we have aligned our overall Human Resources strategy with our LEAP25 strategy, where our people’s capabilities, culture and values are of the utmost importance. Putting these values into action, as part of the restructuring exercise that has seen BIMB emerge as an independent and public listed company in 2021, we are undertaking a concerted effort to ensure that the BIMB Group develops a cohesive common culture centred around our core values. In March, we introduced the 8 Conducts Behavioural Competencies to employees bank-wide. These are eight fundamental traits and behaviours that will serve as a moral compass for our people as we seek to build a high- 66 performance workforce. The 8 Conducts are anchored by our TAAT (Think Customer, Act with Integrity, Advance Beyond, Take Charge) values, integrated into the Group’s policies, guidelines and frameworks. To inculcate the 8 Conducts in the Group’s work culture, we have carried-out awareness and engagement programmes continuously throughout the year, and integrated these behavioural competencies into our employees’ annual performance reviews. We have also acted to strengthen the risk and compliance culture at BIMB through a series of programmes to drive the internalisation of compliance culture amongst our workforce at all levels. Recognising the very human side of the work experience, we established the Bank Islam Live Well Programme, which offers our people a holistic wellness programme that supports their physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and financial well-being. We also provide employees with education, tools and access to relevant experts, enabling them to receive professional help for their issues confidentially. The value and effectiveness of the programme was proven by the crucial support provided to many of our employees during the COVID-19 pandemic and it will remain a key part of our approach to strengthening the values-based-corporate culture as we move forward.

Strengthening customer-centricity is, therefore, at the very core of our LEAP25 strategy. For BIMB, this means embedding a customer first mind-set in all our planning and configuring our business around a customer-centric approach. With more than 90% of our transactions now going through electronic channels, increased digitalisation will be critical to delivering on this goal, but our approach goes well beyond that, encompassing the customer experience at our physical branches, the quality of our client relationships and integrating customer-centricity into our corporate culture. Our digital initiatives have included the development of specific apps that are tailored to the needs of individual customer segments, such as the GO by Bank Islam mobile banking app for our retail customers, BEST Invest for mutual fund investors and GO Biz by Bank Islam mobile app for SME/ MSME customers. To ensure that we continue to deliver a high level of service, we have continued to enhance the functionality of these apps to deliver greater convenience for our customers and keep-up with their evolving needs. To further integrate digitalisation into our customer-centric approach, we are also leveraging on developing our data analytics capability to provide customers with more personalised and satisfying services and experiences. Even as we accelerate the rollout of our digital customer solutions, we have maintained our focus on improving customer experience at our branches. We have continued to invest in training frontline staff and new technology to improve customer experience and deliver a seamless service between our physical and digital channels. We also continued to strengthen services for our business customers at branches, with the launch of five new SME Hubs. The new launches bring the number of Hubs to 16, covering all regions, thus increasing the number of customer touchpoints and allowing us to better-serve our customers’ needs. Commitment to delivering on customer-centricity is a key part of our HR strategy and we have continued to invest in ensuring that our people understand, and have the skills to deliver on our customer first approach. Our digital upskilling programme, which we are expanding across our company, includes a strong customer-focused component. We have also continued investing in training and upskilling the staff at our SME Banking Division, enabling them to provide our business customers with the heightened level of service they require in the fast-evolving business landscape. The steps we took during the year are key to our goal of enhancing customers’ experience. However, our focus on customer-centricity goes beyond any particular initiative; rather it represents a major shift in the way that we will approach our business as we move forward. 67
  69. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D STRATEGIC PERFORMANCE REVIEW STRATEGIC PILLARS 4 : COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT In a year when society and the country continued to feel the impact of the global pandemic, BIMB continued to raise the bar on our community empowerment initiatives, both through our social finance initiatives and by maintaining our focus on financing community-based projects. During the year, we raised a total of RM3.31 million through Sadaqa House, our principal social f inance vehicle, and disbursed a total of RM2.0 million in 2021, to more than 4.700 beneficiaries among the more vulnerable sections of society. Sadaqa House has continued to innovate in the way that it works to empower communities, and in the way that it allows donors to extend their support, by strengthening digital channels, continuing to forge strategic partnerships and developing new structures. Additionally, we expanded our iTEKAD and BangKIT affordable micro-f inance programmes to assist small and microentrepreneurs through one of the most difficult periods they have faced by providing them with start-up capital or financing for business expansion. The schemes continue to provide a pathway for unbanked and underbanked microentrepreneurs to move into the formal banking sector, thus building longer-term prosperity. 68 Staying true to our values as an Islamic bank, we also continued to provide repayment assistance for our customers in need, under the Financial Management and Resilience Programme (URUS) during the year. However, the demand for assistance under the scheme declined sharply during the year as the economy gradually recovered. In addition to our direct social f inance initiatives, we continued to support national development and community empowerment through increased financing for affordable home projects in strategic locations that are targeted at the B40 and M40 segments by providing bridging financing for the developments. In 2021, we approved RM138.9 million in financing for five affordable housing projects, which far exceeded our target for the year of two projects with total financing of RM50 million. Likewise, we also surpassed our financing target for infrastructure and public facility projects by approving a total of RM111.9 million for eight projects in 2021, which, once again, exceeded our target of RM50 million for the year.

During the year, we continued to build new strategic partnerships and strengthen existing ones, including with key government agencies, such as the Halal Development Corporation (HDC), SME Corporation Malaysia (SME Corp. Malaysia), Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE). Our collaboration with these agencies allows us to leverage on their strengths and offerings to build the capacity of our clients in the SME and Halal industry sectors, including by helping them access governmentbacked credit guarantee schemes like the SJPP and CGC Guarantee Scheme. As the Malaysian business landscape adapted to the new reality during the pandemic, we continued to help our clients build the resilience needed to navigate the post-pandemic next normal, by providing them with access to financing and resources to embrace digital and technological solutions to remain competitive. To support their growth, we introduced a range of new financing programmes specifically catering to the needs of SMEs, including the Go Halal SME Financing, with a portfolio size of RM100 million; the SME Automation & Digitalisation Facility (ADF); and the All Economic Sectors Facility (AES) schemes. As we move forward, BIMB will continue to support the development of the SMEs and the Halal Industry in accordance with the national economic agenda and as key growth-drivers for the Bank under our LEAP25 strategy. The Malaysian economy has, repeatedly, proven its resilience but many entrepreneurs in the SME segment and the Halal Industry remain unaware of the opportunities and support available to them. To raise awareness and help them build capacity as they adapted to the pandemic conditions, we organised a series of webinars with our strategic partners to provide information and insights on growth opportunities and financial management. 69
  71. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D STRATEGIC PERFORMANCE REVIEW STRATEGIC PILLARS 6 : DIGITALISATION Digitalisation will be a critical driver in allowing us to achieve our targets under the LEAP25 growth strategy and emerge as a leader in Malaysia’s digital banking landscape. To that end, throughout 2021, we continued to invest in developing new digital products and services, forged strategic collaborations with digital innovators and re-oriented our work culture to embrace digitalisation at every level. At the heart of digital strategy is our aim of delivering a seamless and hyper-personalised customer experience across all of our physical and digital assets. 2021 was a year of major accomplishments for us in these areas as we accelerate a bank-wide transformation of the way that we work and deliver our services. The banking landscape continued to evolve rapidly during the year, as the ongoing pandemic continued to see customers shift to online banking and e-commerce as they embraced contactless options. The investments made in our digital services and infrastructure over the last two years left us well-positioned to capitalise on this shift. Throughout 2021, we saw strong growth in user numbers and transactions across all our key digital platforms, with more than 90% of transactions being conducted through electronic channels by the end of 2021. Our Internet Banking users recorded a more than 20% rise to 1.5 million users, during the year, with the total number of Internet Banking transactions rising by 50%. Even more encouraging was the growth in numbers for our GO by Bank Islam mobile banking app. The number of active users for the app surged by 79% to reach 849,000 and the total number of transactions almost tripled to reach 47 million, which far exceeded our goal of 21 million transactions for the year. The growth in the number of users and transactions was driven not only by the changing consumer behaviour caused by the pandemic but also by the roll-out of new features on the platform to meet customers' rapidly changing needs. GO by Bank Islam is central to our digital growth strategy and as we move forward, we will accelerate the rollout of additional features and functionality to position it as a super app. 70

We continued to drive digital innovation in Islamic finance with BIMB Investment’s award-winning BEST Invest App that utilises robo-intelligence to assist investors in goals-based investing and has now garnered more than 15,000 transacted users. We also took a step to strengthen our position in another key market area with the launch of the Halal Digital Ecosystem for SMEs, or SMEXpert mobile app, to support their growth by enabling wider networking and knowledge enhancement. During the year, we also laid the groundwork to disrupt the Malaysian Islamic banking market with the planned launch of our new digital banking proposition for 2022. The digital infrastructure for the new digital banking proposition is developed and tested by our dedicated Centre of Digital Experience Division, demonstrating the capacity that we have built to undertake large and complex digital projects with accelerated timelines. The launch of the new digital banking proposition will mark a major push by BIMB into establishing our leading position in Malaysia’s digital Islamic Financial Industry. We further extended our mobile banking offerings for SMEs and micro businesses by launching the GO Biz by Bank Islam mobile app in July. The app allows small merchants to manage their day-to-day business quickly and securely through their mobile devices and we successfully onboarded more than 7,000 active users. We see vast potential for expanding the GO Biz by Bank Islam user base and during the year we initiated a project to tie-up with small traders at the famous Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah market in Kota Bharu, which has seen some 400 of the market's 1,300 traders migrating from cash to digital payments via the DuitNow QR offered through GO Biz by Bank Islam. We aim to migrate the remaining traders in the market in successive phases and the project will serve as a blueprint for our focused expansion into the micro-business market. Achieving our digital ambitions will also require us to integrate technology more thoroughly into all our operations in order to drive efficiencies and remain competitive. During the year, we took measures to strengthen our digital core by digitalising our HR and recruitment processes and upgrading key infrastructure, such as our cheque clearing system and our Digital Vendor Financing Platform (VFP) that services our customers under Petronas and Sarawak Energy Bhd. Critically, we also accelerated the digital upskilling of our workforce with the launch of our in-house Digital Academy and by expanding our digital training and certification programme. The banking sector continues to face potential disruption f rom other increasingly digital intermediaries such as FinTech’s. BIMB has embraced the challenge and the opportunity that this provides. In 2021, BIMB initiated collaboration with selected FinTech’s in order to leverage on their agility and innovation while utilising our credibility as a leading Islamic bank, our customer base and our financial resources to scale-up the results. These initiatives form the first steps of our digital strategy under LEAP25. As we move forward, digitalisation is set to emerge as a key engine of our future growth and for delivering on our goal of becoming a customer-centric organisation. 71
  73. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D Financial Review from the Group Chief Financial Officer BIMB DELIVERED A COMMENDABLE SET OF RESULTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR 2021 . OUR PROFIT BEFORE ZAKAT AND TAX STANDS AT RM704.2 MILLION AND THE GROUP HAS DECLARED AN INTERIM DIVIDEND OF 10.93 SEN PER SHARE FOR THE YEAR. Dear Shareholders, 2021 remained a year of challenges as the economy continued to feel the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and faced new headwinds from global supply chain disruptions and rising inflationary pressure. As we navigated the challenges of the year, we stayed true to our values as an Islamic bank by extending support to our customers in need, while maintaining an effective balance between financial prudence and investing in our future growth. PROFIT BEFORE ZAKAT AND TAX (PBZT) The operating environment remained challenging, with the Malaysian banking sector continuing to face margin compression as BNM maintained its benchmark OPR rate at a record-low of 1.75% in order to support the economy. However, the overall economy also continued to benefit from the government’s RM530 billion in stimulus measures which supported a rebound in business activity and financing growth. At the same time, the banking sector as a whole also continued to raise provisions against potential credit losses as the financing moratoriums introduced over the last two years begin to winddown in the first half of 2022. Industrywide provisions stood at 1.9% of total banking system financing at the end of 2021 (2020: 1.7%). 2020: RM728.2 million The year under review was also a pivotal one for BIMB as we assumed listed status on 8 October 2021. The relentless effort at garnering both existing and potential investors resulted in a highly-successful bookbuilding exercise at BIMB Holdings Berhad in April 2021, with our shares being oversubscribed, which underscores investors’ confidence in the future of our Group as they look beyond the short-term challenges. 72 RM704.2 Million 3.3% EARNINGS PER SHARE 21.9 Sen 2020: 22.0 sen

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation    MD&A   Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information PERFORMANCE REVIEW OUR FINANCIAL YEAR IN REVIEW Our Performance Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (“BIMB” or “the Group”) recorded revenue of RM3.2 billion for the year under review, which is 5.2% lower than in 2020. The lower figure reflects the impact of the subdued economic environment, the slowdown in the property sector and margin compression. Through the effective execution of operational and financial measures, the Group was able to deliver a Profit Before Zakat and Tax (PBZT) of RM704.2 million for the financial year ended 31 December 2021. This represents a 3.3% decline from the previous financial year and translates to earnings per share of 21.87 sen for 2021. Our softer performance is attributable to a combination of lower non-fund based income and increased expenses during the year. The Group’s non-fund based income declined by RM175.5 million, mainly due to lower investment income, particularly a lower net gain from the sale of investment securities. These reductions were offset by a lower modification loss arising from the financing moratorium granted to customers. The Group recognised a significantly lower modification loss of RM48.9 million in 2021, compared to RM136.4 million in the previous year. Our Net Income Margin (NIM) declined slightly to 2.38% from 2.41% in 2020, reflecting the impact of the low interest-rate environment that prevailed throughout the financial year. SEGMENTAL PERFORMANCE BIMB has three operating segments, which are Consumer Banking; Corporate and Commercial Banking; and Treasury. Our Consumer Banking segment encompasses retail. Our Corporate and Commercial Banking encompasses non-retail. Treasury encompasses trading and investment book. Consumer Banking reported a net income of RM1.2 billion for the financial year ended 31 December 2021, 13.4% higher than the previous year, attributed mainly to a higher net fund-based income. Gross financing for Consumer Banking as at end December 2021 stood at RM44.5 billion. This marks a year-on-year growth of 7.5% which was driven, mainly, by growth in house financing. Corporate and Commercial Banking recorded a net income of RM415.6 million, a rise of 6.5% from the previous year, with the increase mainly due to higher net fund-based income. Total gross financing for the segment stood at RM14.7 billion. Treasury registered a net income of RM241.4 million for the period, which is 47.1% lower than the previous year. The softer performance was, mainly, due to a lower net gain from sale of investment securities. Treasury assets stood at RM20.0 billion. 73
  75. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D FINANCIAL REVIEW FROM THE GROUP CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER Maintaining Our Focus on Growth Despite the volatile operating environment , the Group’s Total Assets increased by 7.4% during the year, to reach a record high of RM80.2 billion. Growth in total assets was underpinned by encouraging growth in our consumer banking segment. Net Financing grew by 6.4% (2020: 10.5%), which was well-above the industry’s average of 4.1% in 2021. Our financing growth continues to be driven by our attractive products and customer preference for our differentiated offerings. The Group’s total deposits and investment accounts grew by 6.8% to RM67.8 billion during the year. Total current, savings accounts and transactional investment accounts (CASATIA) reached a record high ratio of 39.6% of total deposits and investment accounts, up from the 36.1% recorded in 2020, and above the industry average of 32.4%. The total value of our CASATIA stood at RM26.8 billion at the end of 2021. Maintenance of High Asset Quality By effectively managing our credit risk, BIMB has consistently maintained one of the lowest Gross Impaired Financing (GIF) ratios in the industry. Our GIF ratio stood at 0.96% at the end of 2021, up from 0.67% in 2020, but still well below the industry average of 1.44% for the year under review. The rise in our GIF ratio is mainly due to the pre-emptive provisions TOTAL ASSETS INCREASED TO RM80.2 Billion (2020: RM74.6 Billion) that we have made in response to the challenging credit environment. Our total impaired financing rose from RM373 million in 2020, to RM568 million in 2021. Additionally, we have continued to maintain our Financing Loss Coverage ratio at well above industry levels. Our ratio stood at 187.2% at the end of 2021, in contrast to the industry average of 129.0%. Effective Liquidity Management We continued to strengthen our liquidity buffers during the year, with our Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) rising by 35.2% to 180.1%, which is significantly above the industry average of 153.7%. At the same time, our Net Stable Fund Ratio rose to 113.1% as at December 2021, up from 110.4% the year before. This year-on-year increase in long-term liquidity was, mainly, the result of a RM2.5 billion increase in retail and SME deposits. While the Group has maintained its existing stance on credit management, we have also adopted a more cautious and selective approach, with more granular forward-looking assessments that incorporate ESG considerations. In addition, we recalibrated our credit scorecard to factor-in the heightened risks from the pandemic. We have also stepped-up client engagements and monitoring to reduce the likelihood of credit risk incidents materialising. TOTAL DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS ROSE TO RM67.8 Billion (2020: RM63.4 Billion) NET FINANCING GREW TO RM58.2 Billion (2020: RM54.7 Billion) 74 TOTAL CAPITAL RATIO LOWER AT 18.6% (2020: 19.8%)
  76. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation    MD&A   Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information PERFORMANCE REVIEW Strong Capital Position BIMB maintains a strong capital base. Our total capital ratio of 18.6% (2020: 19.8%) provides an ample buffer for loss absorption and business growth. Pre-tax Return-on-Equity (ROE) for the year stood at 11.1% (2020: 12.1%). Our ROE after zakat and tax stands at 8.4% for 2021. Return on Assets (ROA) before zakat and tax declined slightly from 1.0% in 2020 to 0.9% in the year under review. Investing in Growth and Optimising Costs Our cost-to-income ratio (CIR) rose to 57.0% (2020: 53.8%). The rise in CIR reflects the higher operating expenses we have incurred as we invest in our workforce and infrastructure. Among the expenses are the improvements that we are making to digital infrastructure. Cost optimisation remains a key priority as we move forward, in line with our LEAP25 strategy which sets a clear target of bringing our cost-to-income ratio down. In the year ahead, our expenditure will, increasingly, be directed to earningsaccretive targets. EFFECTIVE RISK MANAGEMENT BIMB conducts its business in accordance with the principle of al-ghunm bi al-ghurm, or that one is entitled to a gain if one is willing to bear the loss. Accordingly, we maintain a robust risk management framework that addresses both the general risks inherent in the operating environment and those that are particular to our core business. In the current operating environment, we recognise credit risk due to the uncertainty in the current economic environment and operational risk arising from changes in consumer behaviour, with a shift to digital banking, as the key risks that the Group faces. Additionally, we recognise that cyber risk is a growing challenge as we embrace an increasingly digital future and we have invested in hardening our systems and providing our people with the necessary skills to mitigate the threat from cyber risk. A full discussion on our key risks and risk management policy can be found on pages 58 to 61 and 193 to 208 of this report. OUTLOOK The outlook for the year ahead is projected to be more supportive of our performance. BIMB forecasts that the Malaysian economy will grow by 5.3% in 2022, almost double the rate achieved in 2021. Our optimism for the year ahead comes with a degree of caution though, as the evolving economic and geo-political scenario carries considerable downside risk. Nevertheless, as we move forward, we are confident that our ample pre-emptive provisions, the high quality of our assets and our healthy capital level leave us well-positioned to navigate through challenging market conditions and continue delivering value for our shareholders. Notwithstanding the continued challenges, the business environment in the year ahead presents a more favourable prospect, with rising expectations of an economic recovery helping spur growth in the Malaysian business sector. These strong growth expectations are underpinned by BNM’s continued maintenance of low interest rates, the move to the endemic phase of COVID-19 and the reopening of Malaysia’s borders. We believe that BIMB is well-positioned to capitalise on these opportunities. Moving forward, our growth will continue to be driven by our principles as a VBI. This commitment aligns us with the growth strategy for the Malaysian financial sector laid-out in BNM’s Financial Sector Blueprint (FSB) 2022-2026. The FSB sets out the development priorities for Malaysia’s financial industry to promote a smooth transition to green economy and integrate climate risk management into banks’ internal functions & operations. The FSB aims to deliver on these goals through five key thrusts: Fund Malaysia’s economic transformation; Elevate the financial well-being of households & businesses; Advance digitalisation of the financial sector; Position the financial system to facilitate an orderly transition to a greener economy; and Advance value-based finance through Islamic finance leadership. These five thrusts, which will now set the direction for the Malaysian financial industry, are aligned with BIMB’s LEAP25 roadmap which places VBI at the heart of our business model.

Best FPX Bank ii. Best JomPay Acquirer iii.Best FPX Acquirer (Bank). OUTLOOK AND STRATEGIC PLANS FOR 2022 The outlook for the year ahead is more positive, as economic growth accelerates. However, real challenges will remain. The SME and micro-enterprise sectors look set to benefit from higher growth and increased employment, but also face risks from labour shortages and rising inflationary pressure. Larger corporations, with more than RM100 million in earnings also face the additional prospect of higher taxes from the one-off Cukai Makmur, which may result in a slight decline in savings. While households will start rebuilding their savings, a considerable number of individuals and micro-enterprises may face pressure as the finance moratoriums end in March 2022. Consumers’ investment preference may also be more restrained and skewed towards mutual funds, insurance savings and property. Against this backdrop, we are focused on maintaining a strong liquidity position through increasing deposits. To continue growing in 2022 and beyond, we are implementing a series of strategic plans to: • Drive growth in the Individual market and SME segments • Maintain the Individual CASATIA ratio at above 80% of the overall portfolio. • Continue to strengthen and promote our products & business solutions. • Implement continuous process improvements to raise operational efficiency. • Strengthen collaboration with business partners. • Continue supporting BIMB’s VBI initiatives 89

  97. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D TREASURY AND MARKETS WHO WE ARE The Treasury & Markets (T&M) Division provides Shariah-compliant treasury solutions to meet the business needs of our clients across multiple segments. Our products and services include Money Market, Foreign Exchange (FX), Fixed Income Markets, and structured products. The year under review saw continued volatility in global financial markets as well as disruptive business conditions from multiple pandemic lockdowns. Enhancements in internal risk metrics and compliance also added rigour to the day to day management of the Bank’s profit rate, FX, and liquidity risk. We nevertheless remained focused and consistent in meeting our clients’ requirements and expectations in providing reliable and quality services, products and solutions. Despite restrictions in corporate activity and cross border funds flows, FX sales volume in 2021 continued to grow from the previous year, but intense competition has resulted in significant margin erosion. The US Dollar maintained its strength throughout 2021 on the back of expectations that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) will raise interest rates aggressively in 2022 and into 2023. The Dollar Index increased by 6.4% in 2021. Against this index, the Ringgit fared better, weakening by 4.1%. Against the Euro and Japanese Yen, however, the Ringgit emerged stronger by 4.2% and 6.7% respectively. This was supported by improved sentiment from the easing of COVID-19 restrictions and accelerated COVID-19 vaccine booster inoculations. The Ringgit was weaker against most Asian currencies with exception of the Thai Baht in 2021. There was steady and significant growth in total deposits for the Bank throughout the year. However, wholesale funding costs continued to be elevated due to intense competition, contributing to margin compression for both Treasury investments and Financing assets. The Bank’s liquidity metrics, nevertheless, improved further in 2021. Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) maintained the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) at 1.75% throughout 2021, maintaining an accommodative stance in support of business activities whilst cushioning the negative impact on household incomes affected by the pandemic. Short term Islamic interbank rates were capped within a steady range with overnight rates trading between 1.68% to 1.77%, 1 week between 1.76% to 1.79% and 1 month between 1.85% to 1.91%. Fixed income investments continued to deliver on both fund based and trading income whilst Sukuk distribution activities were commendable for the year despite a steepening in the Ringgit yield curve and tepid secondary trading liquidity conditions. The Bank was appointed as Lead Manager/Joint Lead Manager for 15 ESG-rated sukuk distribution deals and continued to perform an active role as Islamic Principal Dealer (iPD). The fixed income team achieved a Top 5 ranking in Bloomberg’s Malaysian Ringgit Islamic Sukuk League Table for 2021. T&M’s contribution to the Bank’s profitability from Asset Liability Management/Money Market, FX Sales and Trading, and Fixed income investment activities was much lower compared to the previous year but still significant at just below 30%. OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY FOR 2022 We expect volatility in the financial markets and the challenging business operating environment to persist in 2022 due to the continued uncertainties around COVID-19, rising oil prices, supply chain disruptions and geopolitical risks. Growing inflationary pressures will pressure the Fed to hasten rate normalisation and balance sheet reduction. On the local front, BNM is expected to remain cautious in its rate normalisation path in view of the growing external risk factors and market uncertainties. Most forecasts anticipate one hike in the OPR in 2022 and a likelihood of 4 hikes in 2023. We believe that it will take some time for the FX and Rates markets to stabilise. Continued improvements in the overall liquidity metrics of the Bank and generation of non-volatile trading income from sales and distribution will be the main focus areas for T&M in 2022. This will entail strategies of short-duration investments, further diversification of the Bank’s wholesale funding base and emphasis on customer service excellence. 96

  99. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D CORPORATE BANKING CHALLENGES IN 2021 • Challenging operating environment marked by subdued economic growth due to lower government spending and continued uncertainties arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The prevailing record low interest rates (OPR) in Malaysia also led to net income margin compression across the banking industry. The challenging operating environment in 2021 had a strong impact on our performance: -We experienced Negative Fund-Based Income Growth in 2021, due to the low-yield environment across the globe and the massive cost-cutting measure businesses undertook to survive the pandemic. -Non-fund-based Income declined due to low use of Bank Guarantees and Letters of Credit during the year. Additionally, income from processing & arrangement fees is still pending due to the high number of Pending Acceptance, Pending Documentation and Pending Disbursement cases. -Our Impairment increased by RM228.6m as at Dec 2021, due to a new account being classified as impaired in Dec 2021. This raised our impairment ratio to 3.52%. •Higher business operating costs due to implementation of the minimum wage, additional taxes, delayed subsidy claims, renegotiation of concessions contracts and disruptions in the supply chain. 98 OPPORTUNITIES IN 2021 • Grew our unrated Sukuk activity to facilitate financing assets growth and generate fund-based and fee-based income for the Bank. •Continued refinancing opportunities due to the low interest rate environment. •Supporting existing customers impacted by the pandemic through repayment moratoriums, rescheduling and restructuring, as well as minimising expected credit losses of customers by reducing unutilised facility lines. •Exploring financing opportunities with potential customers under the Government’s Prihatin programmes. • Supplementing Non-Fund-Based Income with advisory services and operational charges. •Expanding the reach of Green Financing beyond the utilities and energy sectors, to areas including the green building segment of the property sector, sustainable plantations and ESG-aligned industries, such as the installation of solar panels. •Improving our asset composition ratio in favour of term facilities, as a buffer against fluctuating assets such as trade and revolving facilities.

Markets will remain volatile as economies return to growth but face headwinds from geopolitical factors, supply chain disruptions and other uncertainties. The prevailing low interest rate has continued to compress margins but is expected to encourage corporate refinancing exercises. We will also continue to monitor credit markets for signs of fragility as the prolonged repayments assistance measures begin to wind-down. Moving forward, we will continue to build upon the strategies and initiatives that we began in 2021: •We will support the growth of ESG-aligned businesses by providing responsible financing. Our sectorial focus will remain on infrastructure, construction, green energy and power, plantations, healthcare, oil & gas and property development. •Acquiring new-to-bank customers and refinancing via Unrated Sukuk Programme. •Maintain our client coverage approach under the Wholesale Banking initiative. •Leveraging on existing customers and growing deposits from our portfolio customers. •Increase our participation in syndicated financing & refinancing of large exposure. •Strengthening our customer relationships by providing proactive banking services to support their growth potential. 99

With a track record of more than 28 years in Islamic Fund Management, we have been a pioneer in the industry on Shariah-ESG investing since 2015 and we continue to push the boundaries of innovation. In 2021, we launched Malaysia’s first SRI Waqf fund, the Makmur MyWakaf fund. Our global shariah-ESG equity fund and the global ESG Sukuk fund continue to be the largest global shariah ESG equity fund and global Sukuk fund in Malaysia respectively. We are a leader in Shariah-ESG investment in Malaysia, with Shariah-ESG funds now making-up 65% of our assets under management with the the widest shariah-ESG funds across asset classes. BIMB Investment currently manages 27 Shariah Funds across various strategies, geographical locations and asset classes. These account for 15% to the total net asset value of the SRI Fund Management Industry and 34% of the total net asset value of Islamic SRI Funds in Malaysia. Additionally, we have continued our pioneering role with the growing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into our investment strategies. As we move forward, BIMB Investment is set to emerge as global leader in Shariah-ESG asset management through our strategic partnership with London-based, Arabesque Asset Management. On 15 April 2022, the Securities Commission Malaysia approved Arabesque Asset Management’s 49% equity shareholding in BIMB Investment. KEY INITIATIVES Sustainable Prosperity BIMB Investment continues to be a leader in the growing Shariah-ESG space. In 2021, we launched three new Shariah-ESG funds.

We have also been used as a case study on Shariah-ESG by the United Kingdom Islamic Finance Council (UKIFC). Additionally, our prowess in building sustainable prosperity led to an invitation for BIMB Investment to speak at the Islamic Finance and SDGs Global Summit in conjunction with the 76th United Nations General Assembly, New York, in September 2021.

Removal of Tax Exemptions for Money Market Funds and for Foreign Income • Under the Finance Bill 2021, the Malaysian Government has made changes with regards to the way tax is imposed on Retail Money Market Funds (RMMF). With the exception of individuals receiving income from RMMF, unit holders will be subject to a withholding tax of 24% with effect from 1 January 2022. The change affects the entire unit trust industry. For BIMB Investment, the change will be felt, specifically, on our BIMB Dana Al-Fakhim fund. • Additionally, the Finance Bill 2021 will also remove the current exemption on Foreign Source Income (FSI) over the course of 2022. FSI will now be taxed at 3% from 1 January 2022 and at 24% from 1 July 2022. This change will impact some of our funds invested in foreign securities. The precise impact it will have on our performance and growth remains uncertain. OPPORTUNITIES IN 2021 Growing Private Mandates BIMB Investment is focused on building-up its private mandate business to complement its strength in the retail sector, and the range and sophistication of our Shariah-ESG products makes this a natural growth area for us. In 2021, we successfully secured our first private mandate, with its first tranche of USD10 million being invested in August 2021. Moving forward, we will leverage on this strong start to pursue further expansion. Unique Value Proposition Through Strategic Partnership Our strategic partnership with Arabesque Asset Management has allowed us to develop a unique value proposition for the Shariah-ESG market, powered by AI and Machine Learning. By leveraging on Arabesque’s AutoCIO and ESG Book platforms, we will have access to ESG data on over 25,000 companies globally and be able to develop and back-test an almost unlimited number of investment strategies, with the support of advanced AI. Collaboration will be a key growth driver for BIMB Investment by putting us ahead of our peers in investment strategies creation, product development and portfolio management. Going forward, we aim to offer customised investment strategies and services to high net-worth individuals and institutions with a strong ESG appetite. Strengthened Risk Management and Compliance We continued to take steps to strengthen our risk management framework, both through enhancing BIMB Investments’ internal policies and by adopting the Group’s policies.

PUTTING OUR IDEALS INTO ACTION, BIMB HAS COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABLE BANKING PRACTICES IN LINE WITH OUR SHARIAH BANKING COMMITMENTS AS THE FIRST PURE-PLAY, FULL-FLEDGED ISLAMIC FINANCIAL INSTITUTION LISTED ON BURSA MALAYSIA’S MAIN MARKET. BIMB has practised sustainable finance through its long-standing products and services that encourage Shariah-compliant banking for businesses and consumers. The Value-based Intermediation Assessment Framework (“VBIAF”) has been a core reference for BIMB in developing its products and services and providing sustainable banking for all its customers. In 2021, BIMB committed to further strengthening its sustainable finance implementation by initiating the development of the ESG Risk Framework. The key aim of the Framework is to incorporate climate-related risks and impacts into the Group’s overall Risk Management Framework. This project is being carried out over two phases, beginning in 2021 where we carried out an ESG assessment and gap analysis of the existing ESG risk management framework. The project continues into 2022 where we aim to have a comprehensive ESG Risk Framework that embeds climate risk management into all aspects of banking including how we extend financing and encourage sustainable banking opportunities towards all our customer segments. 107
  109. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE BIMB has developed and implemented a sustainability governance structure to provide oversight and strategic direction over the Group ’s sustainable finance initiatives. While the ESG Risk Framework allows us to effectively identify, manage, and monitor ESG risk across our business, the Framework is part of an overall Sustainability Plan and Roadmap that guides our actions as a financial institution in implementing sustainable finance. The highest implementation committee for BIMB is the Management Sustainability Committee (“MSC”) where the Group CEO and senior management members are permanent members who are entrusted to implement the Group Sustainability Plan and Roadmap internally and externally across the various business segments. The MSC reports to the Board Strategic & Sustainability Committee (“BSSC”) that provides strategic direction and oversight on sustainability. The Board Risk Committee (“BRC”) and Management Risk Control Committee (“MRCC”) provides oversight and strategic direction on the Group’s ESG Risk Framework that focuses on how BIMB manages and mitigates key ESG risks and impacts including climate change, environmental and social risks across its portfolio. In 2022, further enhancements to the governance structure are planned including the formalisation of Board-level committees and working groups to ensure implementation of our sustainability commitments are carried out efficiently across the various business segments. STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT BIMB values all its stakeholders and has made significant efforts to engage its various stakeholders to understand the material areas of interest and align our sustainability actions and strategy towards areas of sustainable finance that bring most nearterm and long-term impact. To this end, we have engaged regulators, customers, investors, NGOs and civil society in terms of ESG through various methods including meetings, responding to queries and annual surveys as well as participating in collaborative efforts on sustainable finance. 108 MATERIAL ESG ASPECTS BIMB aspires to align our business operations and growth with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (“UN SDGs”). The UN SDGs were matched to our, i.e. BIMB’s material matters with the purpose of serving the best interest of our stakeholders, and ensure that our actions are leaving no one behind and will create impact that leads to socioeconomic progress of our business, the nation and society while ensuring the protection of the natural environment and biodiversity.

BIMB has put in place an overarching sustainability strategy by considering areas of sustainable finance including climate risk management, internal sustainability actions, training and capacity building, and external engagement. The initial building blocks of our sustainability strategy focused on managing the direct climate and ESG risk arising from our business activities including the provision of banking and financing services for business and consumers. BIMB’s LEAP25 strategy includes consideration of sustainability through our targets and priority areas. BIMB’s strategic direction is anchored by a five (5) year plan. Premised on our alignment to VBI, namely, Sustainable Prosperity, Values-based Culture, Community Empowerment, Customer Centricity, Real Economy and Digitalisation. a. The first pillar, Sustainable Prosperity, is to focus on “Responsibly Create Value to Shareholders and Other Stakeholders in Ensuring Sustainable Strength” while “Diversifying revenue streams and sustaining growth momentum”. b. The fifth pillar, Real Economy, envisions how BIMB is focused on making a positive difference to the Real Economy (“RE”), by responsibly growing our SME banking portfolio; assisting MSMEs and promoting RE programmes as a responsible financial intermediary.

  111. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY In developing a framework for managing ESG risk , we engaged with recognised partners to implement a range of activities to better provide clarity on our ESG risk exposures and determine the most effective ways to monitor and mitigate these risks. In 2021, we completed Phase 1 of key activities in implementing the ESG risk framework. By utilising the gap assessments conducted internally and through our engagement with external stakeholders including investors, NGOs, civil society and specialised subject matter experts, we have identified the key ESG risks in our internal operations and those that arise from external customers and vendors. CONVERGING SHARIAH VALUES AND ESG Since 2018, the Value-based Intermediation (“VBI”) checklist has been used to guide our businesses and operations on the broad compliance of activities that covers Shariah principles, environmental impact, workforce equality and corporate governance during the credit evaluation for on-boarding of financing and also used annual review of existing financing. The VBI checklist for preliminary financing assessment covers broad compliance to: • Workforce equality that ensures a conducive working environment and fair opportunities for all employees. • Our businesses and • Ethical activities that promote operations are to adhere strictly the principles and values of Shariah where we do not engage in activities that are related to weapons, liquor and gambling. our values and the trust of our stakeholders. 03 01 02 04 • Corporate 05 06 • Focus on minimising environmental impact through our businesses, as well as promoting activities that lead to environmental awareness and conservation. 110 • Complete non-participation in non-ethical activities such as human trafficking and child labour, and those that result in adverse labour relations.

R et ail cu s to m e r s , ve n d o r s , depositors, investment advisory, fund management) Phase 1: Where we are now in our journey In 2021, BIMB embarked on a multi-phase plan to develop and implement a comprehensive ESG risk management framework covering all aspects of our sustainable finance activities. The implementation plan covers two (2) phases, where Phase 1 was completed in 2021 and Phase 2 is currently ongoing. Key Milestones: BIMB has measured and assessed its ESG performance against best practices in sustainable finance, including reference to the UN SDG, and global standards on sustainable finance. The assessment of our baseline ESG performance was guided by a detailed exercise with our key knowledge partner, and was complemented by other assessments and benchmarks including the widely-accepted FTSE4Good, WWF Sustainable Banking Assessment, and other queries raised through our stakeholder engagement activities with investors and regulators. ESG Assessment Portfolio Profiling and Physical Risk Identification Through the activities with our knowledge partners, BIMB has gained insight into the climate vulnerability of our internal and external assets and operations and better identified the key ESG risks that exist in our financing portfolio. These risks are varied in nature, including the physical and transition risk arising from long-term climate impacts, as well as the business and operational risks arising from our business relationships with customers. Knowledge of these risks has enabled us to better understand key priorities in managing our direct and indirect climate impacts. Scenario Analysis and Stress Testing In Phase 1 of the project implementation, BIMB obtained an initial view of the potential climate scenarios and its impacts to the Group. The key output was utilising forward-looking climate adjusted scenarios to determine impacts to the Bank’s portfolio under different Network for Greening the Financial System (“NGFS”) baseline scenarios. These serve as building blocks towards a more comprehensive view of various climate scenarios and how the Bank may adapt and prioritise actions in view of long-term transition risk. 113

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D SUSTAINABLE FINANCE Phase 2 : Planned Expansion of ESG Risk Framework By Q3 2022, BIMB will incorporate more details into its Framework, including the development of ESG Scorecards and further implementation of portfolio profiling and stress testing. IDENTIFYING AND ASSESSING CLIMATE AND ESG RISK BIMB has undertaken a set of gap assessments through its engagement with knowledge partners internally, and through external responses to regulators, investors and by participating in recognised sustainability benchmarks and indices. Through these assessments, BIMB has determined certain areas where risk management systems and controls are currently being developed and improved upon. Due Diligence of Customers BIMB performs due diligence of business financing as part of pilot initiatives in line with BIMB’s ESG Risk Framework that is currently in development. These due diligence assessments are carried out to determine environmental, social and governance risk related to new and existing customers that may affect the bank in terms of climate and sustainability impact. Customers that are subjected to the ESG due diligence process are prioritised based on the following factors: Exposure to sectors with relatively high environmental or social impact including power generation, mining, oil & gas, forestry, palm oil, heavy manufacturing, water supply, and others deemed high risk at time of customer onboarding. High materiality to the Bank in terms of financing exposure (RM value) Extreme outliers i.e. companies that score in the top or bottom 10% of customers based on the ESG scoring Companies with known or detected ESGrelated controversies or grievances in the last 12 months 114

BIMB also carried out deep-dive validation of certain financing cases that were deemed highly material or carrying relatively higher environmental or social risks. Sector Key Highlights Agriculture (Palm Oil) Clients involved in agriculture may be involved in specific activities, such as plantation development or in the entire value chain of palm oil production, including refining and distribution. BIMB has undertaken ESG due diligence of these customers in view of known risks in terms of environmental impacts related to potential illegal deforestation, development on peatland, use of chemicals, loss of biodiversity, and social impacts including labour practices, health and safety of workers and impacts on local communities and smallholders. In FY2021, BIMB did not detect major violations relating to environmental and social risks among the customers assessed. In some cases, there were legacy risks identified but these were sufficiently managed through time-bound action plans carried out by the customer. Oil & Gas Clients involved in oil & gas include those that are focused on extractive activities, such as upstream and those that are involved in downstream refining and distribution. BIMB has undertaken ESG due diligence of these clients in view of known risks in terms of environmental impacts on marine biodiversity and resources, carbon emissions, and release of potentially hazardous waste; and social impacts including health and safety of workers and impacts on local communities in coastal areas. In FY2021, BIMB did not detect major violations relating to environmental and social risks among the customers assessed in this sector. Heavy Manufacturing Clients involved in heavy manufacturing were chosen based on several material factors including the environmental impact of the manufactured end-product and the scale and vicinity of the operations to environmental features including forest, rivers and marine areas, and its impacts to biodiversity and local communities. In FY2021, BIMB did not detect major violations relating to environmental and social risks among the customers assessed in this sector. Real Estate Development Clients involved in real estate or construction were chosen based on the scale of development & Construction projects and location of the projects based on vicinity to environmental features including forest, rivers and marine areas, and its impacts to biodiversity and local communities. In FY2021, BIMB did not detect major violations relating to environmental and social risks among the customers assessed in this sector. Other Sectors Various other sectors were selected based on material value of exposure to BIMB, including education and financial services providers. In general, these customers were assessed for environmental and social impacts internal to their operations and externally in their supply chain and in terms of end-consumer dealings. In FY2021, BIMB did not detect major violations relating to environmental and social risks among the customers assessed in this sector. 117
  119. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D SUSTAINABLE FINANCE BIMB ’S IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CLIMATE CHANGE PRINCIPLES-BASED TAXONOMY (CCPT) Introduction The CCPT Classification exercise enables financial institutions to understand the extent of their portfolio exposure to climatic impacts and risks. In line with this, BIMB has obtained an initial view of climatic risk exposure based on the classification guidance provided by Bank Negara Makaysia. As per the Guiding Principles as stated in the CCPT Guidance Document, the data is intended to be used to determine areas where opportunities for sustainable financing may arise as well as sectors or market segments that may be risk-weighted in future to manage and mitigate negative climatic impact. BIMB is using a combined methodology utilising data and references from multiple sources to form a basis for application of the CCPT guidelines. Excerpt from the CCPT (BNM, April 2021) The CCPT aims to introduce a principle-based taxonomy for Financial Institutions (FIs) to assess and categorise economic activities according to the extent to which the activities meet climate objectives and promote the transition to a low-carbon economy. The taxonomy also incorporates the consideration of broader environmental outcomes through the principle of no significant harm, with specific regard to how business operations affect pollution, biodiversity and resource efficiency. In supporting an orderly transition, the taxonomy recognises remediation measures and introduces a progressive system of transition categories to acknowledge concrete efforts and commitments by businesses to adopt sustainable practices. The CCPT also aims to facilitate standardised classification and reporting of climate-related exposures to support risk assessments at the institution and systemic levels, strengthen accountability and market transparency, and encourage financial flows towards supporting climate objectives. FIs can also leverage on the taxonomy in the design and structuring of green finance solutions and services to accelerate development of green sectors and activities, and decarbonisation efforts. BIMB recognises that sustainability data is currently not fully comprehensive and does not cover the entire financing portfolio for all segments. These limitations are mainly concerning the SME and retail segments where current data on climate and sustainability impacts are lacking. BIMB views the CCPT exercise as a promising and useful endeavour for financial institutions to apply and contribute towards continual improvement of the financial industry in terms of ESG and will continue to implement this as part of the Bank’s sustainability practice. 118 BIMB’s Interpretation of the CCPT Guidance Document BIMB recognises the impacts of climate change on the environment and society as well as the importance of ESG-related governance systems to enable businesses to improve on and implement robust systems and controls over their sustainability footprint. The role of banks in financing businesses and consumers contribute them to participate in various economic activities that may impact the environment and society in terms of climate change and sustainability. The implementation of CCPT enables BIMB to obtain an overview of how key financing assets are tied to climate risk and identify opportunities for more sustainable financing channelled towards climate-positive economic activities.

At a transactional level Including upon origination and extension of credit, investment in financial assets, and structuring of capital market transactions. In assessing the climate risk of a transaction, BIMB conducts due diligence of the potential use of proceeds of a new or existing financing facility. The use of proceeds may be tied to certain GPs based on the climate impact of the economic activity. Broad Limitations: For company (corporate, commercial or SME) financing, this is generally clear for term financing. For certain financing products where the use of proceeds is tied to working capital requirements that are not clearly defined at the onset, continuous monitoring at annual review intervals are required to ensure that the Bank has knowledge on the use of proceeds. For retail financing, there is generally no provision to limit the use of personal financing, for example, to certain use cases. Where the Bank has structured certain products, i.e. solar financing for a specific use case, this may be tied to GP1. In cases where there are no specific use limitations, the financing is tied to GP3 if no clear environmental harm is identified. 2. At an entity level Including an overall assessment of a business customer’s sustainability policies, action plans, implementation of sustainability roadmaps, and issues or incidents related to ESG. In assessing the climate impact of a business entity, BIMB assesses the customer’s disclosures including, but not limited to, the following; Sustainability Roadmaps 120 Grievances and Complaints related to the Entity/Group Certification and Third-party Verified Action Plans Sustainability Policies Carbon Emissions Reporting and Reduction Targets

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A   Sustainability   Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information The assessment is conducted based on industry-specific norms and standards especially pertaining to certification but also including ESG action plans that address the industry-specific impacts of the company’s activities. The assessment enables BIMB to obtain an overview of the climate impacts of the customer in terms of GP1, 2 and 3 and any remedial activities the customer may carry out in terms of GP4. Broad Limitations: For company (corporate, commercial or SME) financing, entity-level policies and action plans are generally made available by companies with large asset sizes or are public-listed entities that are required to disclose on sustainability as per regulatory and stakeholder requirements. However, for most SME and commercial-scale entities, these disclosures may not be visible. Collating data for these segments entail a much bigger resource-intensive challenge and thus a proxy and model-based assessment is conducted to determine the applicable GPs. For retail financing, there is generally little to no data on the personal profile of a customer to apply the GPs on a similar basis as a business entity. As such, the main assessment conducted on retail customers is to monitor engagement in prohibited activities and encourage environmentally-friendly uses where applicable. 121
  123. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D PILLAR 1 : POSITIVE IMPACT FINANCING BIMB aims to deploy finance responsibly, supporting people and businesses that contribute to the common good and social, economic and environmental sustainability. To that end, we have continued to increase the amount of financing that we have dedicated to ESG-rated projects and have set even more ambitious financing targets as we move forward. We will also continue to innovate in the solutions that we offer to borrowers and investors, to ensure that we continue to meet their evolving needs and demands as they seek to transition to more sustainable models of business and investing. 122
  124. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A   Sustainability   Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information SUSTAINING LEADERSHIP IN GREEN FINANCING BIMB has continued to strengthen its position as a leader in sustainable financing. At the end of 2021, Green Financing accounted for RM2.2 billion, or 4%, of our total financing portfolio. This puts us well ahead of the Malaysian banking industry’s average of 1% to 2%. As we move forward under our LEAP25 strategy, we aim to double the Green Financing book to RM4 billion by 2025. Achieving this target will require us to broaden the range of financing areas beyond the Renewable Energy Green Building sector that we have focused on, towards the wider green economy, which finances not just renewable energy but sustainable agriculture, low-carbon power generation and low-emission manufacturing, electric and hybrid vehicles, sustainable public transportation and the necessary infrastructure. We also aim to expand Shariah-ESG financing to between 12% and 15% of our total financing, thus offering complete Islamic solutions across the Malaysian economy. We have also cemented our leading position in the fast-growing area of green sukuk. The potential for ESG-rated sukuk goes well beyond the market for green sukuk, with the emergence of new products such as blue sukuk and transition sukuk. As companies and governments, increasingly, embrace the sustainability agenda, demand for transition sukuk that help fund their shift to a decarbonised economic model is expected to grow. With the ASEAN region continuing to dominate global issuance of ESG sukuk, the Group sees strong potential for further growth in this area. DRIVING INNOVATION IN SHARIAH-ESG INVESTING In line with both our commitment to ESG principles and our goal of growing our wealth management business, we have continued to launch new funds that offer new asset classes and investment strategies to attract new investors into our SESG funds. In March 2021, for example, we launched Malaysia’s first Waqf Featured Unit Trust, helping bring essential services to marginalised sections of society. We are also leveraging on digitalisation and our strategic partnership with Arabesque Asset Management to vastly expand the investible universe for our SEGS funds, which will provide a much wider range of options to investors with a strong ESG appetite. 123
  125. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D POSITIVE IMPACT FINANCING FOR THE COMMON GOOD : OUR COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL FINANCE BIMB has worked hard to play its part in helping our customers and society bounce back after the challenges of the last two years, but we want to do more. Social finance has always been one of the Group’s key strengths and we aim to expand our reach and impact as we move forward. Under the LEAP25 strategy, BIMB set a target of reaching 3,000 social finance beneficiaries by 2025. The strength of demand for our social finance services and the effectiveness of our delivery, however, have already seen us exceed that target in 2021 and we have now revised the goal for 2025 to 5000 recipients. One of the most impactful ways in which we have been able to support vulnerable or financially underserved members of society has been through our iTekad and BangKIT microfinance programmes. The innovative iTEKAD programme, which was established by BNM in 2020, combines social finance instruments, microfinancing and capacity building assistance to help B40 micro-entrepreneurs generate a sustainable income. During the year, we launched BangKIT, BIMB’s own microfinance and capacity building programme. These schemes provide an important pathway for unbanked micro-entrepreneurs to move into the formal banking sector. We have also continued to strengthen Sadaqa House, our platform for philanthropic social finance through zakat and waqf, by diversifying and magnifying the channels through which it can positively impact the community. In 2021, we continued to diversify collection channels through digitalisation and strengthened strategic partnerships with government bodies and private sector players. Sadaqa House collected RM3.3 million in new funds during the year, and disbursed a total of RM3.6 million, to 4,765 beneficiaries. Since its launch in 2018, Sadaqa House has collected more than RM9.0 million and we aim to raise the figure to RM40 million by 2025. We are also working to strengthen our contribution to the waqf, or Islamic endowments, sector. Our Makmur MyWakaf investment fund contributed RM80,000 to the myWakaf initiative of the Association of Islamic Banking and Financial Institutions Malaysia (“AIBIM”). This collaboration will be strengthened in the year ahead with the launch of myWakaf 2.0. Additionally, we launched the Awqaf Ummah Financing Programme to provide financing for affordable housing schemes in cooperation with the various State Islamic Religious Councils (“SIRCs”). As BIMB moves forward, we aim to build on our strength in social finance, both through expanding the quantum of funding and widening the channels and products through which we are able to reach the underserved. 124

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A   Sustainability   Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information Social Finance at BIMB BIMB established the Centre of Social Finance in January 2020 to provide clearer direction and more effective implementation of our social finance agenda by connecting existing banking products, services and initiatives with traditional Islamic social finance instruments. Prior to its establishment, our social finance agenda was nurtured within the Shariah Division of the Group. Our clear approach to social finance is defined as follows: “SOCIAL FINANCE IS AN APPROACH TO STRATEGICALLY OFFER BANKING PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND INITIATIVES BEYOND TRADITIONAL BANKING WHICH DELIVER SOCIAL IMPACTS AND ECONOMIC RETURNS, WITH THE UNDERLYING FOCUS TO NURTURE THE UNBANKED TO BECOME BANKABLE.” 125
  127. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D PILLAR 2 : DELIVERING ON OUR COMMITMENT TO PEOPLE AND THE PLANET: CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AT BIMB Our success is judged not only by our financial performance but by the impact that we have on society, the environment and the actions that we take for the common good over the long-term. In order to deliver on these commitments, BIMB established its AMAL arm to institutionalise the Group’s Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives. Through our initiatives and programmes, and through our collaborations with strategic partners, we work to further the goals of social inclusion and environmental well-being. Our commitment to these goals reflects our values as an Islamic bank and values-based institution. In working to support the betterment of the society, we utilise funds from our AMAL CSR allocations, our zakat funds, and the contributions that we raise through our Sadaqa House social finance vehicle. The impact of our initiatives is amplified by the strategic partnerships and collaborations that we establish and by the commitment of our own people. Throughout 2021, we continued to build on existing, successful programmes, responded to needs and worked to establish new initiatives that will allow us to keep contributing to the society and the environment. This section shares some of the key initiatives we undertook during the year and the outcomes that they produced. 126

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A   Sustainability   Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information CONTINUING OUR COVID-19 RELIEF EFFORTS As society continued to feel the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic for a second year, BIMB continued to offer support to a wide range of organisations and bodies to which we were able to make a positive contribution. Over the course of the year, BIMB found opportunities to make contributions which benefitted more than 19,600 people in total. Supporting Hospitals The resurgence of COVID-19 cases during the year tested the resilience of the public healthcare system and BIMB acted to support these vital medical facilities and our frontliners. We supported the immediate needs of COVID-19 hospitals by contributing RM200,000 worth of supplies of vital items such as Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”), isolation gowns, hand sanitisers, face masks, boots and head covers to five hospitals across the nation, which benefitted more than 16,000 individuals. Additionally, we supported a group of five COVID-19 hospitals in different parts of the country by providing them with the much-needed oxygen regulators as they dealt with the sharp rise in the number of patients being admitted. Each of the five selected hospitals received 10 oxygen regulators under our Prihatin COVID-19 initiative. BIMB also donated RTK COVID-19 test kits to Hospital USM in Kubang Kerian, Kelantan, which benefitted 300 members of B-40 families who needed to remain at the hospital to look after loved ones. 127
  129. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D FOR THE COMMON GOOD Supporting the Vulnerable Throughout what remained a challenging year for many , Bank Islam actively worked to share benefits with those in society who are less fortunate and with those who continue to serve on the frontlines of the pandemic. In the holy month of Ramadan, we distributed Iftar packed food for 750 frontliners from the police force, the fire brigade, the National Cancer Institute and the armed forces as an expression of our gratitude for their service. We also channelled contributions to other groups in society that had been affected by the pandemic: • BIMB’s Sadaqa House social finance vehicle continued to play its part in supporting the vulnerable by making collections from the public that were channelled to asnaf who are directly affected by COVID-19. In total, Sadaqa House distributed RM201,262 in partnership with JAKIM and PERKIM. • A total of RM50,000 from Sadaqa House and our CSR fund was contributed to the Ministry of Defence (“MINDEF”) Prihatin Fund to support members of the B-40 group and military veterans who were impacted by COVID-19. A total of 300 food baskets were distributed to needy armed forces families across Malaysia. • We contributed RM100,000 to a joint initiative between Kelab Bank Islam (“KBI”) and YADIM to provide support to 366 asnaf, both Muslim and non-Muslim, nationwide. The beneficiaries included a wide range of people whose livelihoods had been impacted by the pandemic, including taxi drivers, buskers, artists and trishaw drivers. We also provided support to vulnerable groups like single mothers, the disabled, and mualaf. Each of them received a food basket worth RM100 and RM150 in cash. • We donated RM12,000 to provide packs of essential food items to 150 B-40 families residing at the PPR Seri Mulia flats to ease their burden during the pandemic. RM1,562,562 WAS CONTRIBUTED TO COVID-19 RELIEF EFFORTS IN 2021 128

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A   Sustainability   Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information SUPPORTING STUDENTS AND EDUCATION We worked closely with a range of partners to support students whose education was disrupted due to the shift to online lessons during the national lockdown or when their schools were forced to close as a result of COVID-19 outbreaks. As part of our Prihatin COVID-19 initiatives during the year, we provided 1,000 asnaf students nationwide, of all races, with electronic devices such as tablets and free internet access (4 months Celcom Data Plan), ensuring that these students from underprivileged families would not be left behind. A total of RM627,000 was contributed towards the project. Our former parent company, BHB, also acted to support the Government’s effort by supplying 150,000 tablet computers to 500 schools across the country through the Ministry of Finance. BHB supplied laptops to 166 underprivileged students at two schools in the state of Sarawak, complete with a 12 month data plan, under the Cerdik CSR project, with our total contribution being RM300,000. We continued with the implementation of our flagship ‘Jom Ke Sekolah’ programme, an annual initiative where children from the B40 segment are provided with schooling supplies and essentials. We provided school necessities to 62 underprivileged children from Rumah Kebajikan Anak Yatim Mary, KL, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Rumah Anak Anak Yatim dan Miskin Al-Taqwa, Baling and vulnerable members of the community from PPR Mulia in Batu Caves. Each child was given school essentials, including new school uniforms, school shoes, socks, a stationery set, pencil case, school bag and colour pencils. Priority was given to families with children starting primary school in 2022. 129
  131. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D FOR THE COMMON GOOD OUR FLOOD RELIEF EFFORTS Malaysia experienced its most devastating floods in decades in December of 2021 , with more than 70,000 people being displaced. Bank Islam recognised our obligations to society and the nation, making a variety of contributions that benefitted more than 6,400 people through our AMAL Prihatin Flood Relief Programme. We provided a range of basic necessities to 5,000 flood victims in the states of Pahang, Johor, Sabah, Terengganu and Perak, in areas that had experienced some of the worst flooding. We also contributed to repairing the surau and musolla of schools that had been damaged by the floodwaters. A total of RM362,640 in aid was channelled in cooperation with MINDEF, and Pertubuhan Dakwah Islamiah Sekolah-sekolah Malaysia (“PEKDIS”). Focusing on the immediate needs of those displaced by the flooding, we made contributions of essential items and dry food supplies to flood victims being housed at the temporary flood relief centres (“PPS”) in a variety of locations. Working with MINDEF, we channelled RM41,572 in relief supplies to seven PPS in Pahang, which benefitted 1,000 people. We carried-out a similar effort at the PPS SK Bukit Changgang and 130 SK Labohan Dagang in Kuala Langat, Selangor, where we provided relief to 400 flood victims. With the Group’s nationwide presence, it was inevitable that some members of our own staff and their families would also be affected by the floods and BIMB took measures to provide them with the needed relief and support. A total of 49 people, comprising staff and their family members each received RM3,000 from BIMB’s CSR fund. We also engaged our customers and provided various digital channels for our customers to donate directly to those in need through the Sadaqa House crowdfunding platform via BangKIT microfinancing. RM570,000 IN TOTAL WAS CONTRIBUTED TO FLOOD RELIEF EFFORTS IN 2021

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A   Sustainability   Leadership  Accountability  Financial   Additional Information INVESTING IN THE ENVIRONMENT Our AMAL untuk Alam initiative to support environmental causes and sustainable farming continues to show good progress. For the second year in a row, we collaborated with the Jasin Correctional Prison in Melaka and Farmers’ Organisation Authority (Lembaga Pertubuhan Peladang) on a sustainable urban farming project run by prison inmates in Jasin, Melaka. The project has been a success, benefitting approximately 600 inmates and 40 families in the area. Inmates grow a range of produce using hydroponic techniques, which require no soil, less water and reduced chemicals, making them safer to eat. To put the project on a more sustainable basis, in 2021 we expanded the range of produce being cultivated, adding the higher-end options of rock melons and Japanese cucumber in addition to the leafy green vegetables that we started in 2020. Under our Jejak AMAL initiative which supports sustainable agriculture, we made an essential contribution to a farmer to help him start a hydroponic & fertigation project with Pertubuhan Peladang Kawasan Maras Batu Rakit. BIMB provided the seeds, saplings, fertiliser and farm equipment, with the training and coaching provided by LPP Terengganu. We carried out the project in cooperation with Pertubuhan Peladang Kawasan Maras Batu Rakit. Additionally, on the island community of Tanjung Surat in Johor, we successfully worked to provide a community of underprivileged fishermen families with access to renewable solar energy for their boat houses. We have also continued to raise public awareness of environmental issues through social media and direct engagement. In January, for example, our ‘Interesting Facts about Hydroponics’ post on Facebook and Instagram rapidly gained attention, crossing the 40,000 views mark. We also continued to use our social media presence to raise awareness of events like Earth Day and World Environment Day. On the direct engagement front, we distributed 1,500 AMAL reusable tote shopping bags to the community during our CSR events in an effort to raise public awareness of the need to reduce single use plastic waste. 131
  133. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D FOR THE COMMON GOOD SHARING BENEFITS AND GOODWILL Providing Better Living BIMB ’s ‘Projek Bantuan Rumah, Baiti Jannati’ programme, which was launched in 2008, sees us working with a network of stakeholders to identify vulnerable members of society who are in need of proper housing infrastructure. In 2021, we worked with Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (“DBKL”) to provide better living conditions for 11 families in the capital by providing the funds for home ownership and repair costs. BIMB contributed a total of RM600,000 in zakat and AMAL funds towards the project. Since its launch in 2008, the programme has provided more than 300 houses, accommodating poor families across the country, with our total contribution exceeding RM9 million. AMAL Ihtimam Ramadan As many members of society continued to feel the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, BIMB continued to support our frontliners and vulnerable members of society, both through direct donations and by working to share benefits and goodwill. Under our AMAL Ihtimam Ramadan 2021, we made cash contributions to 20 asnaf during a bubur lambuk distribution event at the Masjid Jamek Kampung Baru, as well as making a RM5,000 zakat contribution to the mosque itself. We also distributed a further 4,500 packets of bubur lambuk to frontliners, members of the public, BIMB staff and members of the media during the holy month. Additionally, we shared the joy with 1,500 students and staff at the Islamic Centre of USM by contributing to an Iftar event at the university. We also facilitated the provision of canopies and other needed equipment to the Surau Ahmad Dawjee Dhadabhoy (“SWADD”) during the month of Ramadan. The Group had supported the Iftar Fest @ SWADD since 2018. Due to the strict COVID-19 related SOPs, a total of 300 Iftar food packs were distributed daily to KL city workers to break their fast. 132

We distributed a total of RM23,000 in zakat funds at the Kem Kementah, army camp in Kuala Lumpur. This included contributing RM20,000 to 100 asnaf and a RM3,000 contribution to the Masjid Al Fatih mosque at the camp. Additionally, BIMB contributed three heads of cattle for sacrifice as Lembu Korban, with the meat being distributed to 250 recipients. In all, BIMB made a contribution of RM38,000 in zakat and AMAL funds for the event. Beyond our contributions to targeted programmes and collaborations, BIMB continues to look for ways to support the betterment of society in general. In 2021, we made contributions to a variety of events and programmes, including a RM10,000 donation to the Tabung Kebajikan Jabatan Siasatan dan Penguatkuasaan Trafik (“JSPT”) benefitting those who help ensure road and traffic safety. We also collaborated with the Kuantan Municipal Council on a CSR project that benefitted 250 homeless people. Raising Awareness Additionally, we contributed approximately RM30,000 to support the MYLady Assistance Scheme to empower single mothers and young women living with HIV and to Malaysian AIDS Foundation’s (“MAF”) 100,000 Steps to End AIDS virtual walk event last year. The initiative provided a platform for 100 of our staff participants to not only maintain a healthy lifestyle but also to directly advocate for the HIV cause through social media. The funds raised through the charity walk will help MAF to expand their life-saving efforts by providing more people living with HIV with access to treatment. Additionally, to raise awareness and understanding of the Islamic religion, we made a contribution of RM5,000 towards the contest to create an animated video to raise understanding of Islam (Pertandingan Merekacipta Video Animasi Kefahaman Islam), thereby also supporting the local content-creation and creative industries. 133

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW STATEMENT GOVERNANCE , ETHICS AND INTEGRITY Good corporate governance is key to the Group value creation and business excellence. The Group upholds the highest standards of integrity and ethics in the conduct of its business. Its continuous commitment to embed a culture of integrity and ethical behaviour underpins its ability to remain a resilient organisation. Guided by our best practices, we aim to create continued sustainable value for our stakeholders. Good governance in the Group is about ethical and effective leadership of the Board. The Board promotes and embraces value-creating governance to ensure sustainable long-term performance, long-term economic value and growth of the Group. The Board acknowledges that good governance is a critical component of strong financial institutions and plays a key role in maintaining public confidence in the financial system. Sound governance practices form the cornerstone of an effective and responsible organisation. Driven by its responsibility to shareholders and a broader group of stakeholders, the Board provides judicious leadership and strategic guidance to safeguard value-creation within a framework of rigorous and vigorous controls. In this regard, the Board is responsible in ensuring that the Group maintains effective governance on risk, internal controls and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. On 8 October 2021, BIMB achieved a significant milestone, where it took over the listing status of its parent company, BIMB Holdings Sdn Bhd (Formerly known as BIMB Holdings Berhad) (BHB). As a listed entity, our governance processes will continue to be strengthened so that we are aligned with the principles of good governance and recommended best practices and that our approach to disclosure remains timely and transparent. The Board has ultimate accountability and responsibility for the performance and affairs of the Group and ensures that its employees, shareholders, regulators, clients, suppliers, the environment and communities in which the Group operates, adhere to high standards of ethical behaviour. The financial year under review has been marked by unprecedented challenges. 2021 was another disruptive year as the world grappled with the COVID-19 pandemic that fundamentally changed the way businesses operate globally. The crisis has posed extraordinary risks and further revealed 160 social inequities and economic insecurities. It brought to the fore the importance of good governance and a resilient Board leadership where focus is placed on business resilience, ability to manage the crisis, facilitate recovery, rebound and leverage on the opportunities to be ahead of competitors. We are pleased to present this Corporate Governance Overview Statement (CG Statement) for the financial year ended 31 December 2021. The CG Statement has made reference to the three (3) key Corporate Governance Principles in the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance 2021 (MCCG 2021) which saw the introduction of new best Practices and further guidance to strengthen corporate governance culture of listed issuers. The Board considers that this CG Statement has also complied with the statutory requirements, principles and best practices set out in the Companies Act 2016, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) Corporate Governance Policy (BNM CG Policy) and following its listed status, with the Main Market Listing Requirements (MMLR) of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (Bursa Malaysia). This CG Statement shall be read together with the Corporate Governance Report (CG Report) published on BIMB’s website at www.bankislam.com. The CG Report provides the details of how BIMB has applied each Practice as well as departures and alternative measures in place within BIMB during the financial year 2021. This CG Statement takes into consideration the features of the MCCG 2021 and the adoption by BIMB of the new best Practices and how they have been applied, explains departures if any and alternative Practices implemented.

BIMB’s governance structure and practices create value for all its stakeholders by: accentuating greater transparency, accountability and responsibility; balancing the autonomy of various operating entities within BIMB with the appropriate checks and balances; and  inculcating ethical business conduct and desired behaviours based on our core values. The Board is accountable to the shareholders in creating and delivering sustainable value through oversight of the management of the Group’s business, approving strategic plans, monitoring their implementation and providing the necessary support for their successful execution. The Board discharges its responsibilities within a clearly defined governance framework and robust mechanisms in place. Through this framework, the Board, without abdicating its responsibilities, delegates its governance responsibilities to key committees of the Board and other Management committees. The effective functioning of the Board relies on the clarity of the various roles and responsibilities of the committees. There is a clear division of responsibilities between the leadership of the Board and the executive leadership of BIMB’s business. The Board retains ultimate accountability and responsibility from the performance and affairs of BIMB and ensures that BIMB adheres to high standards of ethical behaviour. In executing its governance responsibility, the Board has embraced the following best governance practices: Board Charter that sets out the roles of the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Non-Executive Directors (NEDs). Board Charter that sets out the principles on the Code of Ethics, Conflicts of Interest, External Professional Commitment and Whistle-blowing Policy. The positions of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer are held by two (2) different individuals. A formal and transparent process for the appointment of new Directors and re-appointment of Directors.  Annual Independent Directors’ Review to appraise independence of Independent NEDs.

Addressing sustainability risks in an integrated and strategic manner to support BIMB’s long-term strategy. 3. Implementing effective succession planning for the NEDs and Senior Management within the Group. 4. Strengthening the Group culture and governance. Board Leadership An effective Board is key to the establishment and delivery of a company’s strategy. The Board therefore continually seeks to improve its effectiveness by providing direction to the Management, demonstrating ethical stewardship and creating a performance culture that drives value-creation among others. Through effective leadership and overall oversight of Management, the Board ensures robust monitoring of performance and conformance capabilities in the organisation. All Board members discharge their duties and responsibilities at all times as fiduciaries in the best interest of BIMB. They act with integrity, led by example, exercise their powers for a proper purpose and in good faith. In directing or managing BIMB’s business and affairs, they exercise reasonable care, skill and diligence by applying their knowledge, skill and experience. Imperative to the Board’s oversight responsibility is its commitment to the Group’s long-term strategy and agenda for the integration of sustainability into the Group’s corporate strategy governance and decision-making. Together with Management, the Board takes responsibility for the governance of sustainability in the Group. Board’s Responsibilities and Duties The Board is entrusted with the overall governance of BIMB, the responsibility to exercise reasonable and proper care of BIMB’s resources in the best interests of its shareholders as well as to safeguard its assets. The Board directs and oversees the business and affairs of the Group by periodically reviewing and approving the overall strategies and significant policies of the Group. In discharging its collective responsibilities, the Board provides BIMB with stewardship, counsel and a broad range of expertise to the Management, champions good governance, high ethical standards and practices. The Directors are aware of their collective and individual responsibilities to the shareholders for the manner in which the affairs of BIMB are managed, controlled and operated. Based on the results of the Board Effectiveness Evaluation 2021, the Board is satisfied that it has fulfilled these duties and obligations during the financial year under review. The Board acknowledges that the long-term success of the Group and continued relevance hinge on the prosperity and trust of the communities it serves and the well-being of the environment it operates in. This is crucial to the Board due to the increasing impact of sustainability and the ability of the Group to create sustainable value and maintain the confidence of its stakeholders. The Board remains committed to improving the Group’s sustainability practices beyond the minimum regulatory requirements. The Board has been closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and the Group’s financial performance since its onset in 2020. The pandemic presents to the Board a complex new reality that changes the governance model which has guided the Board and Management through the years. New pressures and demands from stakeholder groups together with the general welfare of the Group’s employees were some of the challenges the pandemic presented. 165
  167. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW STATEMENT The key roles and responsibilities of the Board are as follows : Oversee the implementation of BIMB’s governance framework, risk and internal control framework, and periodically review whether these remain appropriate and relevant Ensure that there is an appropriate succession plan for members of the Board and the Senior Management. Promote sustainability through appropriate environmental, social and governance considerations in the Group’s business strategies Oversee BIMB’s compliance with any regulatory requirements as imposed by the relevant regulatory authorities  romote a sound corporate P culture within the Group which reinforces high level of integrity and ethical practices, prudent and professional behaviour and cultivate a transparent culture towards anti-bribery and corruption The above roles and responsibilities are clearly set out in the Board Charter. Board Balance and Composition The Board comprises eleven (11) Directors as of the date of this Statement. An effective Board is important to the long-term prospects and strategic objectives of BIMB. This is made possible through a strong, transparent and open working relationship between the Directors. The Board’s size ensures that the purpose, involvement and participation of the Directors are not jeopardised and that it achieves the correct balance to realise BIMB’s strategic objectives. Additionally, it ensures diversity and inclusiveness in views and perspectives as well as facilitates sound decision-making and constructive deliberation during meetings. The balance on the Board ensures that no individual or small group of Directors can dominate the decision-making process and that the interests of the shareholders are protected. During the financial year 2021, the Board also approved the policy on the maximum age of director, which is capped at 70 years. This is to preserve the effectiveness of a director in discharging his/her duties and responsibilities. The Board saw changes to its composition during the financial year under review with four (4) new appointments to the Board. The Board welcomed Dato’ Sri Amrin Awaluddin as a Non-Independent Executive Director on 10 September 2021, Mohd Asri Awang as an Independent Non-Executive Director on 1 October 2021, Nuraini Ismail and Datuk Bazlan Osman as Independent Non-Executive Directors on 7 January 2022. 166
  168. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership   Accountability   Financial   Additional Information During the financial year also, Zahari @ Mohd Zin Idris retired as a Non-Independent Non-Executive Director on 20 September 2021, after serving BIMB for 19 years. During his tenure with BIMB, Zahari @ Mohd Zin Idris demonstrated his dedication and commitment in discharging his role as BIMB’s director. It was with sadness that the Board bade farewell to Noraini Che Dan who passed away on 26 August 2021. The late Noraini Che Dan, who joined BIMB on 1 October 2016, was a valuable member of the Board. She had served the Board with great commitment and was a strong advocate of good governance. Following the above new appointments, the Board now comprises as follows: Eight (8) Independent NEDs including the Chairman;  Two (2) Non-Independent NEDs; and  One (1) Non-Independent ED. All Board members are persons of high integrity and calibre with diverse professional backgrounds, sound knowledge and understanding of BIMB’s business and provide a diversity of breadth in demographics, skills and experience. Eight (8) of the NEDs, including the Chairman, are independent, in line with the requirements of the BNM CG Policy. The Independent NEDs play a significant role in bringing objectivity and scrutiny to the Board’s deliberations and decisionmaking. All Directors must exercise their judgement independently at all times, irrespective of status. Whilst there are three (3) non-independent directors, i.e., two (2) being non-executive and one (1) an Executive Director, the two (2) NINED were initially Independent Directors but one (1) was re-designated due to long tenure beyond nine (9) years and the other was re-designated due to an executive position that he held and subsequently relinquished in a related company. The NIED does not hold an executive position in BIMB. He is designated as a NIED by virtue of the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013. Hence these NINED and NIED similarly serve the Board and play a role to ensure decisions are made in the best interest of BIMB. The profile of each member of the Board is presented on pages 137 to 142 of this Integrated Annual Report. Board Committees As part of its efforts to ensure the effective discharge of its duties, the Board has delegated certain functions to Board Committees with their TOR. The delegation of power does not absolve the Directors from the duty to supervise the discharge of the delegated acts. The Directors are aware that they cannot leave the management of BIMB’s affairs to these Committees without committing a breach of duty and that they remain responsible for the exercise of such powers. The functions and TORs of Board Committees as well as authority delegated by the Board to these Committees are reviewed from time to time to ensure that they remain relevant and are up-to-date. The six (6) Board Committees are as follows: BAEC : Board  BRC : Board BNRC: Board  BFRC : Board  BSSC : Board  BITC : Board Audit & Examination Committee Risk Committee Nomination and Remuneration Committee Financing Review Committee Strategic & Sustainability Committee Information Technology Committee The activities of the BAEC, BRC, BNRC, BFRC, BSSC and BITC during the financial year under review can be found in the CG Report. 167

Diversity is equally important to ensure BIMB remains relevant, resilient and sustainable in the evolving and competitive business environment. The Board currently has two (2) women Directors or 18% of the total Board composition. The Board is committed to bringing the number of women directors close to 30% of the total Board composition by 2023 to meet the MCCG 2021 recommendation.

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW STATEMENT Board Commitment The Board commits itself and its Directors to ethical and lawful conduct , including proper use of authority and appropriate decorum when acting as Board members. The Board is of the view that the provisions of the Companies Act 2016 are adequate to ensure commitment by the Directors to perform their duties responsibly and that each Director is able to commit his/her time sufficiently to the Company. The Board Charter stipulates that the maximum number of external professional commitments of each Director must not exceed ten (10), of which the number of directorships in listed companies should not exceed five (5) unless with prior approval of the Board. As of the date of this report, all Directors have complied with these requirements and the Board is satisfied that the total number of professional commitments held by the Directors have not impaired their ability or judgement in discharging their roles and responsibilities. The Directors’ commitment in discharging their duties and responsibilities is further reflected by their attendance at meetings of the Board and Board Committees held during the financial year under review. The Board is satisfied with the level of commitment given by the Directors towards fulfilling their roles and responsibilities. Separate roles of Chairman and Group Chief Executive Officer (Group CEO) The Board is helmed by Tan Sri Dr. Ismail Haji Bakar, who is an INED. The Board delegates responsibility for the overall business and day-to-day management of BIMB to the Group CEO, Mohd Muazzam Mohamed. The roles and responsibilities of the Chairman and the Group CEO are separated by a clear division of responsibilities which are defined and approved by the Board in line with best practices to ensure the appropriate supervision of management. The clear hierarchical structure with its focused approach facilitates efficiency and expedites informed decision-making. The Chairman does not sit on any Board Committees. The Chairman is primarily responsible for the stewardship and smooth functioning of the Board and the fulfilment of its obligations to BIMB. In fulfilling this role, the Chairman must:- Ensures appropriate procedures are in place to govern the Board’s operation, decisions are taken on a sound and well-informed basis including discussions on all strategic and critical issues;  Leads the Board to achieve the key objectives; Encourages healthy discussion and ensure that dissenting views can be freely expressed and discussed; and  Leads efforts to address the Board’s development needs.

The management executive committees ensure that effective systems, controls and resources are in place to execute business strategies and decisions taken by the Board and/ or the Group CEO. Board Independence The INEDs play a significant role in bringing objectivity and scrutiny to the Board’s deliberations and decision-making. The Board acknowledges the important contributions that INEDs make to good corporate governance. All Directors, regardless of their independent status, are required to act in the best interests of BIMB and to exercise unfettered and independent judgement. To date, all eight (8) INEDs satisfy the following criteria: a)ability to act independently in character and judgement and free from any association or circumstances that may interfere with or impair his/her independent judgement or the ability to act in the best interests of BIMB; b)tenure of not more than nine (9) years; and c)not involved in any significant business or contractual relationship with a value of above RM1.0 million. The assessment of the independence of INEDs is undertaken in the following circumstances: Prior to the appointment of NEDs The independence of each candidate is reviewed and determined by the Board based on the recommendation of the BNRC. Annual review Every INED has to provide an annual declaration to confirm the status of his/her independence. Notice of change in circumstances In line with the recommendation of the MCCG 2021, BIMB has adopted a tenure policy whereby an INED’s total tenure on the Board is capped at nine (9) years. The Board may decide to retain a member as an INED beyond the nine (9) years, subject to the approval of the shareholders and BNM. During the financial year under review, all INEDs had declared and affirmed their independence. Each INED has also an ongoing obligation to inform the Board of any circumstances which could impair his or her independence. Appointment of new Directors In considering new appointments to the Board, the Board through the BNRC, takes into account corporate leadership skills, experience and expertise required to advance the strategic direction of BIMB. Consideration is given to the current composition of the Board and the tenure of each Director on the Board to determine whether there is a need to bring new skills and perspectives to the board as well as whether the Director can act independently of Management. The BNRC ensures that the Board has the right balance of skills, experience, independence and business knowledge necessary to discharge its responsibilities in keeping with the highest standards of governance while providing meaningful contributions to the business of BIMB. BIMB maintains a formal and transparent procedure for the appointment of new Directors. The search for potential NEDs may also be made through the engagement of an independent recruitment firm or recommendations from existing Board members or Management and through external sources such as the Directors’ Register by FIDE FORUM, BNM and PIDM in identifying suitably qualified candidates to fill the vacant positions. In its selection of suitable candidates, the BNRC determines whether the candidates satisfy the requisite skills and core competencies in accordance with BIMB’s Policy on Fit and Proper Criteria, BNM CG Policy, MMLR of Bursa Malaysia, MCCG 2021 and BNM’s Policy Document on Fit and Proper Criteria. Once a potential candidate has been shortlisted for a recommendation, the Company Secretary will conduct comprehensive background checks, including checks on financial and character integrity. Every INED has an obligation to notify the BNRC of any change in circumstances that may affect his/her independence status. Once the notification is given, the Board reviews and determines the INED’s independence status based on the recommendation of the BNRC. 171
  173. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW STATEMENT All potential candidates are first considered by the BNRC , taking into account the mix of skills, competencies, experience, integrity, personal attributes and time commitment required to effectively discharge his or her role as a director. The BNRC will have an interview session with the candidate to gauge the suitability of the candidate before making a recommendation to the Board. Following selection by the Board, an application for the proposed appointment as a Director is submitted to BNM for approval and the term of appointment shall be as specified by BNM. Directors’ Re-appointment and Re-election Succession Planning The Board has a Board succession plan to assist them in particular, the BNRC, in ensuring the orderly identification and selection of new NEDs in the event of an opening on the Board, whether such opening exists by reason of an anticipated retirement, an unanticipated departure, the expansion of the size of the Board, or otherwise. Such a structured succession plan addresses the composition and effectiveness of the Board. In addition to the succession plan for Directors, the BNRC also oversees the appointment and succession planning for key Senior Management of BIMB. The BNRC is responsible for assessing the performance of Directors whose current term of appointment as approved by BNM is due to expire and for forwarding its recommendation to the Board for the decision to submit the application to BNM on the proposed re-appointment of the respective Directors. During the financial year under review, the Board has also reviewed the Board Succession Plan for the Group as part of the group harmonisation initiatives. This exercise was carried out to ensure that an effective Board is put in place at all subsidiaries to support the Group’s strategic direction. In assessing the candidates’ eligibility for re-appointment, the BNRC considers their competencies, commitment, contribution and performance based on the Board Effectiveness Evaluation (BEE) and their ability to act in the best interest of BIMB. Following the Board’s approval, a submission is made to BNM for approval three (3) months prior to the expiry of the Director’s tenure. The Board schedules its meetings at least six (6) times a year. Additional meetings are held to discuss specific issues that require deliberation in between the scheduled meetings. The Board may also consider and approve matters via written resolutions.

For the forthcoming AGM, the Board has agreed for Datuk Nik Mohd Hasyudeen Yusoff and Mohd Yuzaidi Mohd Yusoff to be considered for re-election pursuant to Article 133 of BIMB’s Constitution. Meanwhile, Dato’ Sri Amrin Awaluddin, Mohd Asri Awang, Nuraini Ismail and Datuk Bazlan Osman will be considered for re-election pursuant to Article 142 of BIMB’s Constitution. These Directors have given their consent for the re-election. 172 Board Meetings and Attendance The meetings of the Board and its Committees for the financial year 2021 were pre-scheduled at the end of 2020 to facilitate the Directors in planning ahead and ensure full attendance of the Board meetings. The Board ensures that key transactions or critical decisions are deliberated and decided by the Board in a meeting. The Board also ensures that decisions, including any dissenting views, are made known and properly minuted. The Board practices active and open discussions at Board meetings to ensure that opportunities are given to all Directors to participate and contribute to the decisionmaking process. Robust discussions and vigorous deliberations at Board and Board Committee meetings ensure that constructive and healthy dialogues are satisfactorily achieved and quality decision making. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, all the Board and Board Committee meetings were conducted online during the financial year under review. The papers of the Board meetings are disseminated via an online platform and accessed via the devices provided to the Directors.

The induction programme will take about 20 hours (five (5) sessions) and it provides the opportunity for the newly onboarded Director to be familiar with the business, operations, governance, culture and strategic direction of BIMB. This helps to facilitate the Director to contribute to the Board and BIMB in general in an effective manner. The Board recognises the importance of ensuring that Directors are continuously being developed to acquire or enhance the requisite knowledge and skills to discharge their duties effectively. Similarly, Directors acknowledge the importance and value of attending conferences, training programmes and seminars to keep themselves abreast with the development and changes in the industry in which BIMB operates, as well as to update themselves on new legislative and regulatory requirements. All directors are required to complete a core training programme under the Financial Institutions Directors’ Education Program (FIDE Forum), Mandatory Accreditation Programme (MAP) pursuant to MMLR and Islamic Finance for Board of Directors under the International Shari’ah Research Academy (ISRA) within two (2) years upon their appointment to the Board. In addition, each director is required to complete their Individual Development Plan (IDP) which consists of a minimum of three (3) training on technical knowledge and one (1) training on leadership/soft skills. During the financial year under review, the Directors attended and participated in seminars, conferences and workshops that covered areas of corporate governance, leadership, ESG, Shariah, anti-money laundering/counter financing terrorism (AML/CFT), relevant industry updates and global business developments. Most of these training programmes were conducted virtually. A list of training attended by the Directors in 2021 can be found in the CG Report. The BNRC will review the training and development needs of the Directors on an annual basis, taking into consideration the Group’s strategy for the next several years and the current combined skills on the Board. During the period under review, all Directors (save for newly appointed directors) have fulfilled their IDP as well as the mandatory training. Qualified and Competent Company Secretary The Company Secretary, Maria Mat Said, is qualified to act as a company secretary in accordance with Section 235 of the Companies Act 2016. The Company Secretary has 23 years of experience in handling corporate secretarial and legal matters. The Company Secretary acts as an advisor to the Board, particularly with regard to BIMB’s Constitution, policies and procedures and its compliance with regulatory requirements, codes, guidelines and legislations. The Company Secretary ensures that discussions and deliberations at the Board and Board Committee meetings are well documented and subsequently communicated to the relevant Management for appropriate actions.

Board Effectiveness Evaluation The Group conducts an annual BEE to assess the objective of assessing the performance of the Board as a whole, Board Committees, members of the Board and Board Committees as well as identifying any gaps or areas of improvement, where required. Under the purview of the BNRC, a formal evaluation is undertaken to assess the effectiveness of the following: (a) The Board as a whole and the Board Committees; (b) Contribution of each individual Director; and (c) Independence of Independent Directors.

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW STATEMENT Deferred Cash Mechanism & Pool Setting Approach Mechanism Approach Total Cash Benchmark Variable Pay in the form of Performance Bonus or equivalent Short-Term Incentive may be awarded to BIMB’s SMTs/MRTs as compensation for driving superior performance throughout the performance year or term of employment (FullTerm Contract or otherwise gainfully employed). Determination of Amount Deferred The deferment of payment of a portion of variable pay will be adopted in view of managing any financial risk associated with SMTs/MRTs compensation, while adhering to necessary compliance with legislations set forth by BNM. Pool Setting Approach Funding of the BIMB’s determined Variable Pay and the subsequent Cash Deferral for the SMTs/MRTs, where applicable, is simulated taking into account market competitiveness, funding rates and overall affordability. Mandatory deferral – Bonuses (short-term incentives) can be deferred over time subject to forfeiture or adjustment. Bonus Malus – Refers to the part of the deferred bonus that has not yet been paid out and can be ‘reclaimed’ because, for example, an acquisition’s due diligence is not carried out thoroughly. Clawback – This is applied to a bonus that has already been paid out. It can be reclaimed by the employer in, for example, cases of gross negligence or non-compliance. The breakdown of the total amount of remuneration awards in respect of SMTs and MRTs (including the Group CEO) in 2021 is as follows: Element No of SMTs and MRTs Total Amount Basic Salary, Fixed Allowance & Bonus 39 RM30.31 million Benefits-in-Kind and Other Emolument 39 RM6.25 million Percentage Fixed vs Percentage Variable 29.18% Fixed Remuneration 70.82% 178 Variable income (Bonus)

BIMB in its 5-year strategic direction has put in place a plan to embed ESG incorporating climate risk in credit assessment process and endeavors to put in place a broad-based framework before the end of 2022. BIMB has also embarked to put in place a bankwide Sustainability Plan. Practice 5.9 The Board currently comprises eleven (11) Directors, of whom two (2) is a woman, or 18% female representation. The Board is mindful of appointing Directors who have diverse skills, experience, age and gender, and remains committed to achieving at least 30% female representation on the Board whilst ensuring that overall diversity remains a central feature. The Board is taking the necessary steps to have at least 30% woman directors. The succession plan include consideration to achieve more representation of woman directors. Practice 8.2 The Board decided not to disclose on a named basis, the top five (5) Senior Management’s remuneration components including salary, bonus, benefit-in-kind and other emoluments in bands of RM50,000. The Board viewed that such disclosure would be disadvantageous to the Group’s business interests, in which the disclosure of that sensitive information may result in excessive competition for talent in the banking industry. The Company will closely monitor developments in the market in respect of such disclosure for future consideration. Practice 13.1 BIMB’s 38th Annual General Meeting (38th AGM) was held on 31 May 2021. The Notice of the 38th AGM was issued to the shareholders on 7 May 2021, i.e., 21-days before the AGM.

Such a system is designed to manage the Group’s risk appetite within the established risk tolerance set by the Board and the Management, minimising the risk of failure rather than total elimination of risks to achieve the Group’s business objectives. Acknowledging that the system only provides reasonable and not absolute assurance against the occurrence of any material misstatement, loss or fraud; controls and processes have been put in place to contain the limitations inherent in the system such as human error and potential impact of external events beyond the Management’s control.

The governance structure established further ensures that there is effective oversight of risks and internal controls in the Group at all levels. The Board remains responsible for the governance of risk and internal control, as well as all the actions of the Board Committees with regard to the execution of the delegated oversight responsibilities. Reviews are continuously carried out to ensure effectiveness of the system. The Group regularly reviews and improves all controls, processes and response plan arising from the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and any other emerging risks that may arise.

I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership   Accountability   Financial   Additional Information The Group’s risk governance approach is premised on the 3-Lines of Defence Approach by placing accountability and ownership of risks to where they arise while maintaining the level of independence among risk taking units, risk control units and independent assurance unit in managing risk. The 3-Lines of Defence is used in implementing the ERM Framework and providing risk management accountability across the Group.

Risk Appetite The risk appetite defines the levels of risk that the Group is willing to assume within its risk capacity. It is a critical component of the Group’s ERM Framework, which enables the Board and Management at all levels to communicate, understand and assess the types and levels of risks that the Group is willing to accept in pursuit of its strategic and business goals while taking into consideration the constraints under a stressed environment. The Group’s risk appetite has been integrated into its Corporate Direction and Business Plan and remains dynamic and responsive to the changing external and internal drivers such as the business and market conditions. It is determined based on the following elements: 01 02 03 Risk Capacity Risk Tolerance Risk Appetite •What is the maximum limit of risk the Group can withstand without causing its failure? •How much risk is the Group prepared to take per risk type or business unit? •What level of risk is deemed acceptable by the Board in pursuing its stategy? The Group takes steps to ensure that trigger levels, limit structures and delegated authorities are re-aligned, and potential risk appetite implications are considered in all major resource allocation decisions. In setting the risk appetite of the Group and to enhance the Group’s risk adjusted returns, the discussion of risks is from the point of view of optimising the Group’s risk-return profile instead of ‘loss minimising’. Guided by these principles, our risk appetite is articulated through a set of Risk Appetite Statements across the Group to ultimately balance the strategic objectives of the Group. 197
  199. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D STATEMENT ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL Risk Management Process A standard risk management process has been adopted by the Group to ensure that Group-wide risks are properly identified and managed across all products and activities are undertaken in a structured , systematic and consistent manner. The risk management process is as follows: The Group’s risk culture has evolved over time and is a reflection, amongst others, of Senior Management actions, effective enforcement of policies and guidelines and communication strategies. Additionally, the Group perceives risk management as an important means of enhancing competitiveness, performance and operational resilience. Shariah Non-Compliance Risk Step 1: Risk Identification Step 4: Risk Monitoring & Reporting Risk Management Process Step 2: Risk Assessment Step 3: Risk Control & Mitigation Under this approach, active involvement of the Board, Senior Management and staff of all levels are required in the risk management process to ensure a uniform view of risks across the Group. Risk Culture Risk culture is a vital component in strengthening risk governance and forms a fundamental principle of strong risk management. It is key to the long-term effectiveness of the Group’s risk management strategy. As encapsulated in the Group’s Risk Management Tagline, “Managing Risk is Everyone’s Business”, building a strong risk culture is the responsibility of the Board, Senior Management and all employees of the Group. To ensure this, the risk management process and approach has been embedded in all the Group’s core business processes, functions and activities. 198 Shariah Non-Compliance Risk (SNCR) is part of operational risk and is defined as “the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, financial loss or non-financial implications including reputational damage, which the Group may suffer arising from failure to comply with the rulings of the Shariah Advisory Council of Bank Negara Malaysia (SAC), standards on Shariah matters issued by BNM or decisions or advice of the Group’s Shariah Supervisory Council. The responsibility of managing SNCR is spearheaded by the Group’s Shariah Risk Management Unit that is guided by the Risk Management framework and Operational Risk Management (ORM) Guideline. The documents detail out the Shariah risk management processes and tools in order to provide a consistent framework for managing SNCR across the Group. Shariah risk management is a discipline that systematically identifies, measures, monitors and controls SNCR to mitigate the occurrence of SNC events within the Group. Being part of operational risk, it leverages on the same principles, processes and tools of operational risk. However, the tools are modified to suit the regulatory requirements on Shariah governance in order to provide a robust and consistent approach in managing SNCR. Information Technology Risk Information Technology (IT) risk (including cyber risk) is the business risk associated with the use, ownership, operation, influence, involvement and adoption of technology within the Group. It also consists of technology related events that could potentially impact the business. Banking industry heavily relies on technology and BIMB is no exception. Such reliance exposes the Group to IT related risks such as cyberattacks and system disruptions. To mitigate this, BIMB has established the relevant framework and policy and has also put in place appropriate control measures and processes that are continuously being reviewed and enhanced. The Group also continues to invest in the latest IT infrastructure and tools as well as human capital development.

Besides, a strategic alliance was achieved with the other internal control functions, i.e., Shariah Risk Management and Shariah Audit in performing an ad-hoc Shariah compliance review on the common areas.

The process involves scrutinising the details of the issues raised and proposing remedial action plan which may entail corrective and preventive measures. In building up the Shariah compliance culture within the Bank, a continuous collaboration amongst the Shariah governance and control functions was established via series of Shariah Townhall. The programme served as a catalyst to heighten the awareness level and intensify compliance with the current and relevant Shariah rules and regulations so as to curb any possible SNC event.

In 2021, BIMB continued to undertake significant work to enhance its corporate governance and integrity initiatives to be in line with the NACP. The work culminated in the development of BIMB’s OACP, 2022-2025, which will serve as the foundation for all BIMB’s initiatives in this area in the coming years. Key Steps of OACP Development BIMB’s OACP was developed with a vision towards a corrupt-free organisation and a mission to address problems and weaknesses of governance, integrity and anti-corruption in related areas and activities in the organisation. Five (5) key steps were involved in developing BIMB’s OACP based on the TRUST principles (Top Level Commitment, Risk Assessment, Undertake Control Measure, Systematic Review and Training & Communication) recommended by the Guidelines on Adequate Procedures issued pursuant to the MACC Act. 01 TOP LEVEL COMMITMENT Establishment of AntiCorruption Committee and formation of OACP Development Committee (ODC). 02 DATA ANALYSIS Analyse data in the form of reports of the real state of governance, integrity and anti-corruption weaknesses: • MACC/RMP records; • Staff’s disciplinary records; and • Internal Audit/ Compliance report. 03 CORRUPTION RISK MANAGEMENT (CRM) Process of identifying risk and weaknesses that lead to opportunities of corruption to occur. 04 ACTION PLAN • Prepare strategic objective & action plan to adress issues of corruption, governance and integrity. • Milestone as an indicator to measure achievement. Department to be responsible and accountable for the initiatives assigned. 05 MONITORING & EVALUATION • Monitor, evaluate and report progress of the OACP. • Monitor implementation of OACP action plan and ensure compliance to the plan. • Coordinate and engage stakeholders. It is important to establish the ‘tone from the top’ where BIMB implemented clear policies to address corruption risks and proper reporting channels for any suspected and/or actual corruption incidents. IGD also carried out data analysis and CRM exercise to identify potential risk and weakness which may lead to occurrence of corruption activities in the organisation. Subsequently, IGD, through its role as the OACP Development Committee (ODC) Secretariat conducted discussions with the potential corruption risk owners, relevant departments and stakeholders to develop strategic objectives and clear action plans to address these potential corruption, governance and integrity issues. Benchmarking exercises against ministries, government agencies and other corporations were also carried out to ensure BIMB’s OACP is relevant and achieves the highest level of standard expected from a premier financial institution. 206

Based on CRM Outcome Based on our focused yet comprehensive CRM exercise which considers past data and future possibilities. 53 POTENTIAL RISKS 161 INITIATIVES Collaborative efforts Initiatives were developed through several workshops and discussions. Challenge session was also conducted to determine the viability of the initiatives proposed. The OACP covers four (4) main priority areas, namely Business, Branch Operations, Administration & Support and Governance. IGD reviewed processes involved at BIMB for all departments and divisions and a total of 161 initiatives are included covering short, medium and long term to ensure BIMB is free from corruption to be in line with the goals of the NACP. This plan will be constantly reviewed and updated according to BIMB’s changes and organisation strategic requirements.

At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances that would render the amount written-off for bad financing, or amount of impairment provisions for impaired financing in the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank, inadequate to any substantial extent. Current assets Before the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ascertain that any current assets, other than financing, which were unlikely to be realised in the ordinary course of business at their values as shown in the accounting records of the Group and of the Bank have been written down to their estimated realisable value.

Items of an unusual nature The results of the operations of the Group and of the Bank for the financial year were not, in the opinion of the Directors, substantially affected by any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature. There has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature, likely to affect substantially the results of the operations of the Group or of the Bank for the current financial year in which this report is made. Compliance with Bank Negara Malaysia’s expectations on financial reporting In the preparation of the financial statements, the Directors have taken reasonable steps to ensure that Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”)’s expectations on financial reporting have been complied with, including those as set out in the Financial Reporting for Islamic Banking Institutions and Circular on the Application of MFRS. 2022 BUSINESS PLAN AND OUTLOOK Business Plan, Strategy and Future Outlook Economic recovery is expected in FY2022 with Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) of 5.3%, despite downward revision of 2021 GDP to 3.0% (previous projection: 4.2%). This is in light of gradual normalisation of domestic economic activities amid higher vaccination rates and easing restrictions on production capacity which will bolster GDP expansion alongside improving global trade. The domestic banking sector is expected to stay resilient in 2022 amid the challenges of the Covid pandemic. Even as impairments begin to surface in the coming year, credit losses will be amply cushioned by healthy earnings accretion, comfortable provisioning buffers and solid capitalisation. Driven by household segment with mortgages as the main driver, overall sentiments shall remain positive for banking sector with continued support to viable consumers facing temporary financial difficulties through repayment assistance packages. In addition, Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”) has released a new five-year Financial Services Blueprint 2022 – 2026 in January this year. The blueprint is anchored on 4 key thrusts in fostering greater market dynamism and advancing the sustainability agenda to support the transition towards a greener economy. We have gone into the first year of LEAP25. Our 5-year aspiration of LEAP25 is to increase the asset size and ESG-rated financing assets, reduce Cost-to-Income ratio, sustain superior industry Return-to-Equity (“ROE”), increase our non-fund based income (“NFBI”) contribution, create positive social impact and retain high-performing talents. The Bank’s targets are anchored by the six pillars namely Sustainable Prosperity, Value Based Culture, Community Empowerment, Customer Centricity, Real Economy and Digitalisation. Gearing up for 2022 as the economy moves into the recovery period, the Bank will be focusing on the goal and ensuring effective execution of our strategies. Our customers will always be at the heart of our strategy execution. Cost rationalisation will remain our focus and spending will be allocated to our priority areas. 216

The Bank’s management ensures that its conducts, operations, business, affairs, and activities follow the relevant Shariah rules and principles. Our responsibility is to form an independent opinion based on the review of conduct and businesses of the Bank in producing this report. We had convened nine (9) meetings during the financial year in which we reviewed, among others, products, transactions, services, processes and documents of the Bank. In performing our roles and responsibilities, we had obtained all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in providing us with sufficient evidence to give a reasonable assurance that the Bank has complied with the applicable Shariah rules and principles. At the management level, the Group Chief Shariah Officer (cum Secretary of the SSC), who functionally reports to the SSC, oversees the conduct and effectiveness of Group Shariah Division’s (GSD) functions that carry out the roles and responsibilities related to the Shariah secretariat, research and advisory. The control functions further confirm the Bank’s Shariah governance comprising of Shariah Risk Management, Shariah Compliance and Shariah Audit that resides in the Group Risk Management Division, Group Compliance Division, and Group Internal Audit Division, and reports directly to the Group Chief Risk Officer, Group Chief Compliance Officer, and Group Chief Internal Auditor respectively. The following are the significant developments that took place during the financial year, which reside under our purview: APPROVALS To ensure smooth and timely execution of our business operation, we empower the Group Chief Shariah Officer (GCSO) and Senior Manager of Group Shariah Division to approve a non-substantial variation of Shariah related matters. The approvals are then reported to us periodically as notification. Concurrently, the GCSO or his representative is also sitting as a member in the following committees to advise the Bank on matters relating to Shariah rules and principles: i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) Management Committee; Sadaqa House and Zakat Committee (Vice Chairman); Management Risk Control Committee; Operational Risk Control Committee; Underwriting and Investment Committee; Product Development Oversight Steering Committee; 219

SHARIAH GOVERNANCE We had approved in our meetings several initiatives undertaken by the Bank in strengthening its Shariah governance, including the review of the Shariah Compliance Policy and Shariah Compliance Guideline of Bank Islam Labuan Offshore Branch (BILOB), Charity Fund Management Guideline and Business Zakat Guideline for subsidiaries, i.e. Farihan Corporation Sdn Bhd and Al-Wakalah Nominees (Tempatan) Sdn. Bhd. that aims, among others, to set out the Shariah governance framework within the Bank and ensure our business operations are in line with the Shariah rules and principles. SHARIAH RISK MANAGEMENT We observed that the Bank continuously implemented appropriate measures in managing its Shariah non-compliance (SNC) risk. Firstly, the implementation of Risk Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) aims to assess the significance of identified SNC risks and the effectiveness of the controls in the respective functional areas. Since the introduction of RCSA, a continuous process of identifying and assessing SNC risks at various functional areas have been carried out by all Risk Controllers (RCs). The RCs are also responsible for driving and implementing appropriate controls to mitigate any SNC events while achieving the business objectives of their respective areas. The semi-annually RCSA result, specifically the SNC risk exposures of the Bank, is also tabled in the Management Risk Control Committee and our meetings for monitoring and oversight purposes. Secondly, this year we continue our initiatives in establishing checklists to assist frontliners and relevant functions in managing SNC. For instance, in 2020, the Bank established the Shariah Related Complaint Checklist to guide complaint handlers and product owners to identify Shariah-related complaints lodged by customers. This year, the Bank has extended the initiative by establishing the Shariah Non-Compliant Issues Checklist to identify Shariah related litigation cases. Finally, the Operational Risk Integrated System (ORIS) launch covers the Shariah compliance elements on top of Operational Risk and Business Continuity Management. This platform can manage risk profiles for all business and support units more effectively, thus reducing the probability of SNC or Shariah-related events. 220

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D INDEPENDENT AUDITORS ’ REPORT to the members of Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (Incorporated in Malaysia) (Company No. 198301002944 (98127-X)) OUR OPINION In our opinion, the financial statements of Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (“the Bank”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Bank as at 31 December 2021, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the financial year then ended in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. WHAT WE HAVE AUDITED We have audited the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank, which comprise the statements of financial position as at 31 December 2021 of the Group and of the Bank, and the statements of profit or loss, statements of other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, statement of changes in equity and statements of cash flows of the Group and of the Bank for the financial year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages 230 to 374. BASIS FOR OPINION We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements” section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. INDEPENDENCE AND OTHER ETHICAL RESPONSIBILITIES We are independent of the Group and of the Bank in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice) of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws”) and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code. OUR AUDIT APPROACH As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank. In particular, we considered where the Directors made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group and of the Bank, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group and the Bank operate. KEY AUDIT MATTERS Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank for the current financial year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. 226

We tested the design and operating effectiveness of the controls over impairment of financing, advances and others. These controls covered: •• Identification of financing, advances and others that have experienced significant increase in credit risk or objective evidence of impairment; We focused on this area due to the size of the carr ying value of f inancing, advances and others, which represented 72.6% of total assets of the Group. •• Governance over the impairment processes, including model development, model approval and model validation; •• Data used to determine the allowances for credit losses including the completeness and accuracy of the key inputs and assumptions into respective ECL models; and •• Review and approval of the ECL calculation. In addition, impairment is a highly subjective area as the Group exercised significant judgement on the following areas: Our detailed testing over the financing, advances and others are as follows: Timing of identification of Stage 2 and Stage 3 financing, advances and others Individual assessment •• Assessment of objective evidence of impairment of financing, advances and others based on mandatory and judgemental triggers. •• •• Identification of financing, advances and others that have experienced a significant increase in credit risk. Examined a sample of financing, advances and others particularly focused on customers identified by the Group as having lower credit quality, rescheduled and restructured, borrowers in high risk industries impacted by Covid-19, and formed our own judgement as to whether there was a significant increase in credit risk or any objective evidence of impairment. •• Where objective evidence of impairment was identified by the Group and impairment loss was individually calculated, we examined both the quantum and timing of future cash flows used by the Group in the impairment loss calculation, challenging the assumptions and comparing estimates to external evidence where available. Calculations of the discounted cash flows were also re-performed. Individual assessment Estimates on the amount and timing of futures cash flows based on realisation of collateral or customer’s business cash flows. Collective assessment •• Assessed the methodologies inherent within the collective assessment ECL models applied against the requirements of MFRS 9, including the basis used by the management to determine the key assumptions used in respective ECL models; •• Assessed and tested the significant modelling assumptions, including the basis or judgment used for management’s overlays; •• Assessed and considered reasonableness of forward-looking forecasts assumptions; and •• Tested the accuracy of data inputs used in ECL models and checked the calculation of ECL amount, on a sample basis. Collective assessment Choosing the appropriate collective assessment models and assumptions for the measurement of ECL such as expected future cash flows and forward – looking macroeconomic factors given the wide range of potential economic outcomes due to Covid-19. Based on the procedures performed on individual and collective assessment, we did not find any material exceptions to the Group’s assessment on impairment of financing, advances and others. 227

Our opinion on the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank 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 auditors’ 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 DIRECTORS FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Directors of the Bank are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank that give a true and fair view in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards, International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia. The Directors are also responsible for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements of the Group and of the Bank that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and the Bank’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 the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Bank or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. AUDITORS’ RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: (a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank, 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. (b) 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 and of the Bank’s internal control. 228

We also: (continued) (c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors. (d) Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 or on the Bank’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the Bank to cease to continue as a going concern. (e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements of the Group and of the Bank represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. (f) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements of the Group. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the Directors 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 the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the Group and of the Company for the current financial year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. OTHER MATTERS This report is made solely to the members of the Bank, as a body, in accordance with Section 266 of the Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility to any other person for the content of this report.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to the periods presented in these financial statements and have been applied consistently by Group entities, unless otherwise stated. 2.1 Basis of preparation (a) Statement of compliance The financial statements of the Group and of the Bank have been prepared in accordance with the applicable Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS”), International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), the requirements of Companies Act 2016 in Malaysia and Shariah requirements. The Government has introduced certain measures to assist customers experiencing temporary financial constraints due to the pandemic.

The automatic moratorium applied to financing not in arrears exceeding 90 days as at 1 April 2020 and denominated in Malaysian Ringgit. This measure is extended beyond 1 October 2020 to viable customers on a case-to-case basis, whose applications are received on or before 30 June 2021 via various repayment assistance. On 6 July 2021, BNM announced that individuals, microenterprise customers and SMEs affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, may start applying for the six-month moratorium from 7 July 2021 onwards, in line with the Government’s Pakej Perlindungan Rakyat dan Pemulihan Ekonomi (PEMULIH).

  243. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 2 . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.1 Basis of preparation (continued) (a) Statement of compliance (continued) •• For credit card balances, the Bank offered the option to convert the balances to term financing. •• For corporate customers, the Bank granted assistance through repayment moratorium or additional working capital or rescheduling and restructuring of existing facilities. This is to enable viable corporations in preserving jobs and resuming economic activities when conditions stabilise and improve. The financial impact of the moratorium repayment is disclosed in Note 2.18. (ii) Definition of defaulted exposures under the policy documents on Capital Adequacy Framework for Islamic Banks for which assistance is granted: •• The determination of “days past due” is based on the new repayment terms of rescheduled and restructured financing. •• Individuals or SMEs are not considered to be in default based on the “unlikeliness to repay” at the time of when the assistance was granted, except for when customers are subject to bankruptcy action. •• Corporates “unlikeliness to repay” are based on holistic assessment of all relevant factors and information, not on the act of accepting assistance from the Bank. The regulatory capital treatment above shall apply to financing denominated in Malaysian Ringgit that meet the following criteria; •• •• The principal or profit or both, is not in arrears exceeding 90 days at the application date of assistance. The application is received on or before due date of the respective assistance programme.

The identification shall be removed once the customers exit the programme or at the earliest, six months after enrollment date. (iv) Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”) allows financial institutions to drawdown certain prudential buffers as below: •• •• •• •• Drawdown the capital conservation buffer of 2.5%; Operate below the minimum Liquidity Coverage Ratio (“LCR”) of 100%; Reduce the regulatory reserves held against expected credit losses to 0%; and Minimum Net Stable Funding Ratio (“NSFR”) is lowered to 80% from 100% effective 1 July 2020.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.1 Basis of preparation (continued) (a) Statement of compliance (continued) Bank Islam has kept abreast with the latest IBOR developments in Malaysia. A Task Force (“TF”) involving key stakeholders has been formed, headed by Head of Treasury & Markets. There were five TF meetings held to date, on 18 August 2020, 8 December 2020, 16 February 2021, 28 May 2021 and 1 November 2021 respectively. Progress on LIBOR transition against the industry signpost issued by BNM, was discussed at the TF meetings, and tabled to the Asset & Liability Committee (“ALCO”), Board Risk Committee (“BRC”) and Board of Directors (“BOD”) of the Bank for deliberation and to be monitored on a regular basis. The Bank has ceased all new financing referenced to LIBOR, and have renegotiated the existing LIBOR financing, to a new Reference Rate ie. USD COF. Bank Islam no longer has any LIBOR exposure w.e.f. 9 July 2021. Other than as described above, the adoption of other accounting standards, interpretations and amendments did not have any significant impact on the Group and the Bank. The following are accounting standards, amendments and interpretations of the MFRS framework that have been issued by the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board (“MASB”) but have not been adopted by the Group and the Bank. MFRSs, Interpretations and amendments effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2022 •• •• •• •• Annual improvements to MFRS Standards 2018-2020 Amendments to MFRS 3, Business Combinations Amendments to MFRS 116, Property, Plant and Equipment Amendments to MFRS 137, Onerous Contract – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets MFRSs, Interpretations and amendments effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023 •• •• •• •• mendments to MFRS 101, Presentation of Financial Statements – Classification of Liabilities as Current A or Non-current, Disclosure of Accounting Policies MFRS 17, Insurance Contracts Amendments to MFRS 17, Insurance Contract Amendments to MFRS 108, Definition of Accounting Estimates MFRSs, Interpretations and amendments effective for annual periods beginning or after a date yet to be confirmed •• •• Amendments to MFRS 112, Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction Amendments to MFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements and MFRS 128, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture The Group and the Bank plan to apply the abovementioned standards, amendments and interpretations on the respective effective dates.

  245. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 2 . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.1 Basis of preparation (continued) (b) Basis of measurement The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention except for derivative financial instruments, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) and fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”), which have been measured at fair value. (c) Functional and presentation currency The financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”), which is the Bank’s functional currency. All financial information is presented in RM and has been rounded to the nearest thousand (RM’000), unless otherwise stated. (d) Use of estimates and judgement The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, 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 financial statements in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgements used in applying accounting policies that have significant effect in determining the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in Note 2.9 – Impairment. 2.2Basis of consolidation (a)Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities, including structured entities, controlled by the Bank. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Potential voting rights are considered when assessing control only when such rights are substantive. The Group also considers it has de facto power over an investee when, despite not having the majority of voting rights, it has the current ability to direct the activities of the investee that significantly affect the investee’s return. Investments in subsidiaries are measured in the Bank’s statement of financial position at cost less impairment losses, if any. Where there is indication of impairment, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed. A write down is made if the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. (b) Business combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method from the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. 244
  246. I N T EG R AT ED A N N UA L R EP O R T 2 0 2 1 Key Messages    Overview   Value Creation   MD&A  Sustainability  Leadership  Accountability   Financial    Additional Information 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.2Basis of consolidation (b) Business combinations For new acquisitions, the Group measures the cost of goodwill at the acquisition date as: •• •• •• •• the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquiree; less the net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss. For each business combination, the Group elects whether it measures the non-controlling interests in the acquiree either at fair value or at proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred. The Group applies predecessor accounting to account for business combinations under common control. Under predecessor accounting, assets and liabilities acquired are not restated to their respective fair values. They are recognised at the carrying amounts from the consolidated financial statements of the ultimate holding company of the Group and adjusted to conform with the accounting policies adopted by the Group. The difference between any consideration given and the aggregate carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity is recognised as an adjustment to equity. No additional goodwill is recognised. The acquired entity’s results, assets and liabilities are consolidated from the date on which the business combination between entities under common control occurred. Consequently, the consolidated financial statements do not reflect the results of the acquired entity for the period before the transaction occurred. The comparative information is not restated. (c) Loss of control Upon the loss of control of a subsidiary, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the former subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the former subsidiary from the consolidated statement of financial position. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the former subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently it is accounted for as an equity accounted investee or as a financial asset at FVOCI depending on the level of influence retained. (d) Transactions eliminated on consolidation In preparing the consolidated financial statements, intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated. 245
  247. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 2 . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.3Foreign currency (a) Foreign currency transactions In preparing the financial statements of the Group entities, transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the end of reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are not retranslated at the end of the reporting date, except for those that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences arising on the retranslation of FVOCI equity instruments or a financial instrument designated as a hedge of currency risk, which are recognised in other comprehensive income. (b) Foreign operations denominated in functional currencies other than Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”) The results and financial position of all the Group entities and branch of the Bank (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows: •• the assets and liabilities of operations denominated in functional currencies other than RM, including fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to RM at exchange rates at the end of the reporting date; •• the income and expenses of the foreign operations are translated to RM at average exchange rates for the period; and •• all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of other comprehensive income. On consolidation and at Bank, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities and branch, and of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other comprehensive income. On the disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, a disposal involving loss of joint control over a joint venture that includes a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of significant influence over an associate that includes a foreign operation), all of the exchange differences relating to that foreign operation recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the separate component of equity are reclassified to profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on disposal. In the case of a partial disposal that does not result in the Group losing control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to noncontrolling interests and are not recognised in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (that is, reductions in the Group’s ownership interest in associates or joint ventures that do not result in the Group losing significant influence or joint control) the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange difference is reclassified to profit or loss. 246

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.4Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term funds, and deposits and placements with banks and other financial institutions maturing within three month. 2.5Financial instruments Financial instruments are classified and measured using accounting policies as mentioned below. The Group and the Bank have consider the impact of the pandemic and there is no changes to the Group’s and the Bank’s business model for managing the financial instruments. Initial recognition and measurement A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group and the Bank becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial instrument is recognised initially, at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial instrument not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial instrument. Classification and subsequent measurement On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified and measured at: amortised cost; FVOCI - debt instrument; FVOCI - equity instrument; or FVTPL. Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group and the Bank change its business model for managing financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the change in the business model. (a) Financial assets measured at amortised cost A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL: •• it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and •• its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit on the principal amount outstanding. These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective profit rate method. These assets are stated net of unearned income and any impairment loss. Included in financial assets measured at amortised cost are financing, advances and others which consist of sale-based contracts (namely Bai’ Bithaman Ajil, Bai Al-Inah, Murabahah, Bai Al-Dayn and At-Tawarruq), lease-based contracts (namely Ijarah Muntahiah Bit-Tamleek, construction-based contract (Istisna’) and ArRahnu contract. These financing contracts are recorded in the financial statements as financial assets measured at amortised cost based on concept of ‘substance over form’ and in accordance with MFRS 9.   247

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.5Financial instruments (continued) Classification and subsequent measurement (continued) (b) Financial assets at FVOCI (i) FVOCI – debt instrument A debt instrument is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL: •• it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and •• its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit on the principal amount outstanding. These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Any gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value is recognised in the fair value reserve through other comprehensive income except for profit income, impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses arising from monetary items which are recognised in profit or loss. On derecognition or disposal, the cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity into profit or loss. Profit calculated for a debt instrument using the effective profit method is recognised in the profit or loss. (ii) FVOCI – equity instrument On initial recognition of an equity instrument that is not held for trading, the Group and the Bank may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in OCI. This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis. These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividend are recognised as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI and are never reclassified to profit or loss. (c) Financial assets at FVTPL All financial assets not measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Group and the Bank may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise. These financial assets are subsequently measured at their fair values and any gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value will be recognised in the profit or loss.   248

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.5Financial instruments (continued) Classification and subsequent measurement (continued) Financial assets – Business model assessment The Group and the Bank make an assessment of the objective of the business model in which a financial asset is held at the portfolio level because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes: •• the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice. These include whether management’s strategy focuses on earning contractual profit income, maintaining a particular profit rate profile, matching the duration of the financial assets to the duration of any related liabilities or expected cash outflows or realising cash flows through the sale of the assets; •• how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the management; •• the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and how those risks are managed; and •• how managers of the business are compensated – e.g. whether compensation is based on the fair value of the assets managed or the contractual cash flows collected. Transfers of financial assets to third parties in transactions that do not qualify for derecognition are not considered sales for this purpose, consistent with the Group’s and the Bank’s continuing recognition of the assets. Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets – Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and profit (“SPPI”) For the purposes of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial recognition. ‘Profit’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs (e.g. liquidity risk and administrative costs), as well as a profit margin. In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and profit, the Group and the Bank consider the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group and the Bank consider: •• •• •• •• contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows; terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate, including variable-rate features; prepayment and extension features; and terms that limit the Group’s claim to cash flows from specified assets (e.g. non-recourse features).   249

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.5Financial instruments (continued) Classification and subsequent measurement (continued) Financial assets – Assessment whether contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and profit (“SPPI”) (continued) A prepayment feature is consistent with the SPPI criterion if the prepayment amount substantially represents unpaid amounts of principal and profit on the principal amount outstanding, which may include reasonable additional compensation for early termination of the contract. Additionally, for a financial asset acquired at a discount or premium to its contractual par amount, a feature that permits or requires prepayment at an amount that substantially represents the contractual par amount plus accrued (but unpaid) contractual profit (which may also include reasonable additional compensation for early termination) is treated as consistent with this criterion if the fair value of the prepayment feature is insignificant at initial recognition. Derivative financial instruments The Group and the Bank hold derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and profit rate exposures. However, the Group and the Bank elect not to apply hedge accounting. Hence, foreign exchange trading positions, including spot and forward contracts, are revalued at prevailing market rates at statement of financial position date and the resultant gains and losses for the financial year are recognised in the profit or loss. An embedded derivative is recognised separately from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if, and only if, it is not closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the host contract is not categorised at fair value through profit or loss. In the event of an embedded derivatives, the host contract that is not a financial assets are recognised separately and accounted for in accordance with the policy applicable to the nature of the host contract. Financial liabilities All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost other than those categorised as fair value through profit or loss. The financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are deposit from customers, investment accounts of customers, recourse obligations on financing sold to Cagamas, bills and acceptance payables, Subordinated Sukuk Murabahah and other liabilities. Fair value through profit or loss category comprises financial liabilities that are derivatives or financial liabilities that are specifically designated into this category upon initial recognition. Financial liabilities categorised as fair value through profit or loss are subsequently measured at their fair values with the gain or loss recognised in profit or loss. 250

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.5Financial instruments (continued) Financial liabilities (continued) (a) Investment accounts Investment accounts are either: (i) Unrestricted investment accounts An unrestricted investment account (“UA”) refers to a type of investment account where the investment account holder (“IAH”) provides the Bank with the mandate to make the ultimate decision without specifying any particular restrictions or conditions. The UA is structured under Mudharabah and Wakalah contracts. Impairment allowances required on the assets for investment accounts are charged to and borne by the investors. (ii) Restricted investment accounts Restricted investment account (“RA”) refers to a type of investment account where the IAH provides a specific investment mandate to the Bank such as purpose, asset class, economic sector and period of investment. RA is accounted for as off balance sheet as the Bank has no risk and reward in respect of the assets related to the RA or to the residual cash flows from those assets except for the fee income generated by the Bank for managing the RA. The Bank also has no ability to exercise power over the RA to affect the amount of the Bank’s return. The RA is structured under the Wakalah contract whereby the IAH appoints the Bank as the agent to invest the funds provided by IAH to finance customers with a view of earning profits and the Bank receives fees for the agency service provided. Financial guarantee contracts A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the Group and the Bank to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. Fees and commissions arising from financial guarantee contracts are classified as deferred income and are amortised to profit or loss using a straight-line method over the contractual period or, when there is no specified contractual period, recognised in profit or loss upon discharge of the guarantee. Financial guarantee contracts are initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at the higher of: •• •• the amount of the allowance for impairment; and the premium received on initial recognition less cumulative income recognised in accordance with the principal of MFRS 15. 251

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.5Financial instruments (continued) Derecognition A financial asset or part of it is derecognised when, and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or the financial asset is transferred to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability assumed) and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in equity is recognised in profit or loss. A financial liability or a part of it is derecognised when, and only when, the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. On derecognition of a financial liability, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. Offsetting Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 2.6Property and equipment (a) Recognition and measurement Items of property and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. The cost of selfconstructed assets also includes the cost of materials and direct labour. For qualifying assets, borrowing costs are capitalised in accordance with the accounting policy on borrowing costs. Cost also may include transfers from equity of any gain or loss on qualifying cash flow hedges of foreign currency purchases of property and equipment. Purchased software and management information system under development that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment. The cost of property and equipment recognised as a result of a business combination is based on fair value at acquisition date. The fair value of property is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion. The fair value of equipment is based on the quoted market prices for similar items when available and replacement cost when appropriate. 252

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.6Property and equipment (continued) (a) Recognition and measurement (continued) When significant parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property and equipment. The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property and equipment and is recognised net within “other income” and “other expenses” respectively in profit or loss. (b) Subsequent costs The cost of replacing a component of an item of property and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the component will flow to the Group and the Bank, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced component is derecognised to profit or loss. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. (c)Depreciation Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of individual assets are assessed, and if a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of that asset, then that component is depreciated separately. Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group and the Bank will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Freehold land is not depreciated. Depreciation on management information system under develoment commences when the assets are ready for their intended use. The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows: •• •• •• •• •• •• Long term leasehold land Building improvement and renovations Furniture, fixtures and fittings Office equipment Motor vehicles Computer equipment 50 10 2 – 10 6 5 5 – 7 years years years years years years Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reassessed at end of the reporting period, and adjusted as appropriate. 253

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.7Leases Leases are recognised as Right-Of-Use (“ROU”) assets and corresponding liabilities at the date at which the leased assets are available for use by the Group and the Bank. The right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The associated lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is used in determining the discount rate which assumes the interest rate that the Group would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, the funds necessary to obtain the asset. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied for the Group and the Bank was at 5.7%. Each lease payment is allocated between the lease liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of profit on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Payments associated with short-term leases are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Lessee accounting The Group and the Bank first consider whether a contract is, or contains a lease. A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration’. To apply this definition, the Group and the Bank assesses whether the contract meets three key evaluations which are whether: •• the contract contains an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the contract or implicitly specified by being identified at the time the asset is made available to the Group and the Bank; •• the Group and the Bank have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the defined scope of the contract; or •• the Group and the Bank have the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Group and the Bank assesses whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use. Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee At lease commencement date, the Group and the Bank recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the statement of financial position. The ROU asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Group and the Bank, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives received). The Group and the Bank depreciates the ROU assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the ROU asset or the end of the lease term. The Group and the Bank also assesses the ROU asset for impairment when such indicators exist. 254

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.7Leases (continued) Lessee accounting (continued) Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee (continued) At the commencement date, the Group and the Bank measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at that date, discounted using the profit rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the Group’s or Bank’s incremental financing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments (including in substance fixed), variable payments based on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and payments arising from options reasonably certain to be exercised. Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for payments made and increased for profit expense. It is remeasured to reflect any reassessment or modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments. When the lease liability is remeasured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the ROU asset, or profit and loss if the ROU asset is already reduced to zero. The Group and the Bank have elected to account for short-term leases using the practical expedients. Instead of recognising a ROU asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognised as an expense in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lessor accounting As a lessor, the Group and the Bank classifies its leases as either operating or finance leases. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset, and classified as an operating lease if it does not. Leases, where the Group and the Bank does not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases and, the leased assets are not recognised on the statement of financial position. Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease expense, over the term of the lease. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in the reporting period in which they are incurred. When the Group and the Bank are an intermediate lessor, it assesses the lease classification of a sublease with reference to the ROU asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group and the Bank apply the exemption described above, then it classify the sublease as an operating lease. 2.8Bills and other receivables Bills and other receivables are stated at amortised cost less any allowance for impairment. 255

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.9Impairment Impairment of financial assets (i) Impairment of financial assets The Group and the Bank recognise allowance for impairment or allowance for expected credit losses “ECL” on financial assets measured at amortised cost, financial guarantee contracts, financing commitments and debt securities measured at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. The Group and the Bank define a financial instruments that has objective evidence of impairment as default, when it meets one or more of the following criteria; Quantitative criteria; i) ii) Principal or profit of both is past due for more than 90 days/MIA 3 Cross default Qualitative criteria; A financing is credit impaired when one or more triggers/criteria that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flow of the financial asset have occurred. The Group and the Bank consider the following mandatory triggers; i) Ceased operation ii) Bankruptcy/wound up iii) Fraud with investigation report duly confirmed as fraud iv) Liquidator/R&M appointed v)Deceased Financial instruments that are credit-impaired with exposure more than RM1 million are assessed on individual basis. The Group and the Bank have considered the impact of the pandemic and has taken into account the economic and financial measures announced by the Government in estimating the ECL on the financial assets. Under collective assessment, the Group and the Bank apply a three-stage approach to measuring ECL on financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVOCI. Financial assets migrate through the following three stages based on the change in credit quality since initial recognition: 256 i) Stage 1: 12 months ECL (“Stage 1”) For exposures where there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition and that are not credit impaired upon recognition, the portion of lifetime ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring within the next 12 months is recognised. ii) Stage 2: Lifetime ECL – not credit impaired (“Stage 2”) For exposures where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition but that are not credit impaired, a lifetime ECL is recognised.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.9Impairment (continued) Impairment of financial assets (continued) (i) Impairment of financial assets (continued) iii) Stage 3: Lifetime ECL – credit impaired (“Stage 3”) Financial assets are assessed as credit impaired when one or more events that have a negative impact on the estimated future cash flows of that asset have occurred. For financial assets that have become credit impaired, a lifetime ECL is recognised. The Group and the Bank consider the economic and financial measures announced by the Government, i.e. automatic moratorium as well as rescheduling and restructuring for eligible customers are granted as part of an unprecedented government effort to support the economy amid the pandemic, rather than in response to the financial circumstances of individual customers. Judgement is excercised in determining the significant increase in credit risk for customers receiving relief assistance and do not automatically result in a stage transfer. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group and the Bank consider reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s and the Bank’s historical experience, informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information. The Group and the Bank assume that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly when it is more than 30 days past due. The Group and the Bank also use its internal credit risk grading system and external risk rating to assess deterioration in credit quality of a financial assets. The Group and the Bank assess whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly on an individual or collective basis. For the purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of similar risk characteristics, taking into account the asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors. These characteristics are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the counterparty’s ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated. (ii) Measurement of ECL ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group and the Bank expect to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective profit rate of the financial asset. 257

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.9Impairment (continued) Impairment of financial assets (continued) (iii) Incorporation of forward-looking information Relevant macroeconomic factors are incorporated in the risk parameters as appropriate. The key macroeconomics variables (“MEV”) that are incorporated in determining ECLs include, Oil Price (“OP”), Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”), House Price Index (“HPI”), and Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (“KLCI”). Forward-looking macroeconomic forecasts are generated by the Group’s and the Bank’s Economist as part of the ECL process. An economic forecast is accompanied with three economic scenarios: a base case (60%), which is the median scenario, and two less likely scenarios, one upside (20%) and one downside (20%). Selected MEVs are projected over the forecast period, and they could have a material impact in determining ECLs. Forecasted MEVs are derived by Economist using time series econometrics. The data series are procured from the official source such as Department of Statistics Malaysia (“DOSM”), BNM and other government agencies. Prior to MEV forecast, Economist would gather his or her intelligence from discussion with the policy makers, institutional investors and other news flow (main stream and social media) in order to form an opinion. The opinion may cover the economic policies, business cycle and financial market condition. This will be the main input before embarking MEV forecast exercise. The methodology and assumptions including any forecasts of future economic conditions are reviewed regularly. (iv) Credit impaired financial assets At each reporting date, the Group and the Bank assess whether financial assets carried at amortised cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a negative impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Certain mandatory and judgmental triggers that the Group and the Bank use to determine that there is objective evidence of an impairment loss include: •• •• •• •• •• significant financial difficulty of the issuer or obligor; a breach of contract, such as default or delinquency in profit or principal payments; the restructuring of a financing or advance by the Group and the Bank on terms that the Group and the Bank would not consider otherwise; it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or based on external credit assessment institutions rating which indicates high likelihood of default. (v) Presentation of allowance for ECL in the statement of financial position Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charged to profit or loss and is recognised in other comprehensive income. 258

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.9Impairment (continued) Impairment of financial assets (continued) (vi) Restructured financing A financing that is renegotiated is derecognised if the existing agreement is cancelled and a new agreement made on substantially different terms or if the terms of an existing agreement are modified such that the renegotiated financing is a substantially different instrument. Where such financing are derecognised, the renegotiated contract is a new financing and impairment is assessed in accordance with the Group’s and the Bank’s accounting policy. Where the renegotiation of such financing are not derecognised, the gross carrying amount is recalculated based on the revised cash flows with gain or loss on modification recognised in profit or loss. Impairment continues to be assessed for significant increases in credit risk compared to the initial origination credit risk rating. (vii)Write-off The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written-off when the Group and the Bank have no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For individual customers, the Group and the Bank have a policy of writing off the gross carrying amount when the financial asset is 180 days past due based on historical experience of recoveries of similar assets. For commercial and corporate customers, the Group and the Bank individually make an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group and the Bank expect no significant recovery from the amount written-off. However, financial assets that are written-off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s and the Bank’s procedures for recovery of amounts due. Impairment of other assets The carrying amount of other assets (except for current tax assets and deferred tax assets) are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset 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. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss. 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. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to the profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognised. 259

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.10 Bills and acceptances payable Bills and acceptances payable represent the Group’s and the Bank’s own bills and acceptances rediscounted and outstanding in the market. 2.11 Government grants Grant from the government are recognised at their fair value when there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group and the Bank will comply with all attached conditions. Government grants relating to costs are recognised in the profit or loss over the periods to match the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. The benefit of a government loan at a below-market rate of interest is treated as a government grant. The loan shall be recognised and measured in accordance with MFRS 9 Financial Instruments. The benefit of the belowmarket rate of interest shall be measured as the difference between the initial carrying value of the loan determined in accordance with MFRS 9 and the proceeds received. The benefit is accounted for in accordance with MFRS 120. The Group and the Bank shall consider the conditions and obligations that have been, or must be, met when identifying the costs for which the benefit of the loan is intended to compensate. 2.12Provisions A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group and the Bank have a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. The provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and if it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. 2.13 Contingent liabilities Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is not recognised in the statements of financial position and is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events not wholly within the control of the Group and the Bank, are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. 2.14 Contingent assets A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group and the Bank. The Group and the Bank do not recognise contingent assets but discloses its existence where inflows of economic benefits are probable, but not virtually certain. 2.15 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. An operating segment’s operating results are reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker, which in this case is the Chief Executive Officer of the Group, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. 260

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.16 Share Capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity in the statement of financial position. Cost directly attributable to the issuance of new equity shares are taken to equity as a deduction from the proceeds. Dividend distribution Liability is recognised for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the Group, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period. Distributions to holders of an equity instrument is recognised directly in equity. 2.17 Recognition of income Financing income Financing income is recognised in the profit or loss using the effective profit rate method. The effective profit rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instruments or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial instruments. When calculating the effective profit rate, the Group and the Bank have considered all contractual terms of the financial instruments but do not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and transaction costs integral to the effective profit rate, as well as premium or discounts. Income from a sale-based contract is recognised on effective profit rate basis over the period of the contract based on the principal amounts outstanding whereas income from Ijarah (lease-based contract) is recognised on effective profit rate basis over the lease term. For credit-impaired financial assets the effective profit rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial assets (after deduction of the loss allowance). Fee and other income recognition Financing arrangement, management and participation fees, underwriting commissions, brokerage fees and wakalah performance incentive fees are recognised as income based on contractual arrangements. Fees from advisory and corporate finance activities are recognised net of service tax, discounts on satisfaction of performance obligations and completion of each stage of the assignment.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.18 Material profit or loss items (continued) During the previous financial year, the Group and the Bank granted an automatic moratorium on certain financing repayments (except for credit card balances), to individuals and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) for a period of six months from 1 April 2020. The automatic moratorium was applicable to financing that are not in arrears exceeding 90 days and denominated in Malaysian Ringgit. This measure was to assist customers experiencing temporary financial constraints due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the end of the six-month blanket moratorium, the Group and the Bank continue to support financing customers that face difficulties in fulfilling their financial obligation, through various Repayment Assistance (“RA”) programme. As a result of the payment moratorium and TRA, the Group and the Bank recognised a one-off loss of RM48,910,000 (2020: RM136,380,000 arising from the modification of the expected cash flows of the financing. The following table includes a summary of information for financial assets with lifetime ECL whose cash flows were modified during the financial year as part of the Group and Bank’s restructuring and rescheduling activities and their respective effect on the Group and the Bank’s financial performance: Group and Bank Financing, advances and others: Amortised cost before modification Net modification loss 2021 RM’000 2020 RM’000 1,247,366 1,232,548 1,881,218 1,867,943 2.19 Income tax Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income. Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years. Deferred tax is recognised using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position and their tax bases. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. 262

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.19 Income tax (continued) A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. 2.20Zakat This represents business zakat that is paid on the Bank’s portion. It is an obligatory amount payable by the Group and the Bank to comply with the rules and principles of Shariah. 2.21 Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits Short-term employee benefit obligations in respect of salaries, annual bonuses, paid annual leave and sick leave 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 short-term cash bonus and termination benefits if the Group and the Bank have 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. The Group’s and the Bank’s contribution to the Employees Provident Fund is charged to the profit or loss in the year to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group and the Bank have no further payment obligations. 2.22Earnings per ordinary shares The Group presents basic earnings per share data for its ordinary shares (“EPS”). Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Group by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. 2.23Fair value measurements ‘Fair value’ is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or, in its absence, the most advantageous market to which the Group and the Bank have access at that date. The fair value of a liability reflects its non-performance risk. When available, the Group and the Bank measure the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. If there is no quoted price in an active market, then the Group and the Bank use valuation techniques that maximise the use of relevant observable inputs and minimise the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique incorporates all of the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction. 263
  265. B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 2 . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.23Fair value measurements (continued) The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price – i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or received. If the Group and the Bank determines that the fair value at initial recognition differs from the transaction price and the fair value is evidenced neither by a quoted price in an active market for an identical asset or liability nor based on a valuation technique that uses only data from observable markets, then the financial instrument is initially measured at fair value, adjusted to defer the difference between the fair value at initial recognition and the transaction price. Subsequently, that difference is recognised in profit or loss on an appropriate basis over the life of the instrument but no later than when the valuation is wholly supported by observable market data or the transaction is closed out. If an asset or a liability measured at fair value has a bid price and an ask price, then the Group measures assets and long positions at a bid price and liabilities and short positions at an ask price. Portfolios of financial assets and financial liabilities that are exposed to market risk and credit risk that are managed by the Group on the basis of the net exposure to either market or credit risk are measured on the basis of a price that would be received to sell a net long position (or paid to transfer a net short position) for a particular risk exposure. Those portfolio-level adjustments are allocated to the individual assets and liabilities on the basis of the relative risk adjustment of each of the individual instruments in the portfolio. The fair value of a demand deposit is not less than the amount payable on demand, discounted from the first date on which the amount could be required to be paid. The Group and the Bank recognise transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. 3.

The Group and the Bank have instituted two (2) levels of Financing Committees, which assess and approve credits at their specified authority levels. The MRCC is responsible under the authority delegated by the BRC for managing credit risk at strategic level. The MRCC reviews the Group’s and the Bank’s credit risk policies and guidelines, aligns credit risk management with business strategies and planning, reviews credit profile of the credit portfolios and recommends necessary actions to ensure that the credit risk remains within established risk tolerance levels. The Group’s and the Bank’s credit risk management governance includes the establishment of detailed credit risk policies, guidelines and procedures which document the Group’s and the Bank’s financing standards, discretionary powers for financing approval, credit risk ratings methodologies and models, acceptable collaterals and valuation, and the review, rehabilitation and restructuring of problematic and delinquent financing. Management of credit risk The management of credit risk is being performed by Credit Management Division (“CMD”) and Risk Management Division (“RMD”), and two other units outside of the CMD and RMD domain, namely, Credit Administration Department and Recovery & Rehabilitation Division. The combined objectives are, amongst others: •• To build a high quality credit portfolio in line with the Group’s and the Bank’s overall strategy and risk appetite; •• To ensure that the Group and the Bank is compensated for the risk taken, balancing/optimising the risk/return relationship; •• To develop an increasing ability to recognise, measure and avoid or mitigate potential credit risk problem areas; and •• To conform with statutory, regulatory and internal credit requirements. The Group and the Bank monitors its credit exposures either on a portfolio or individual basis through annual reviews. Credit risk is proactively monitored through a set of early warning signals that could trigger immediate reviews of (certain parts of) the portfolio. The affected portfolio or financing is placed on a watchlist to enforce close monitoring and prevent financing from turning impaired and to increase chances of full recovery. A detailed limit structure is in place to ensure that risks taken are within the risk appetite as set by the Board and to avoid credit risk concentration on a single customer, sector, product, Shariah contract, etc. Credit risk arising from dealing and investing activities are managed by the establishment of limits which include counterparty limits and permissible acquisition of private debt securities, subject to a specified minimum rating threshold. Furthermore, the dealing and investing activities are monitored by an independent middle office unit. 317

For on-balance sheet assets, the exposure to credit risk equals their carrying amount. For financial guarantee contracts, the maximum exposure to credit risk is the maximum amount that the Group and the Bank would have to pay if the obligations of the instruments issued are called upon. For credit commitments, the maximum exposure to credit risk is the full amount of the undrawn credit facilities granted to customers.

A master agreement that governs all transactions between two parties, creates the greater legal certainty that the netting of outstanding obligations can be enforced upon termination of outstanding transactions if an event of default occurs. (b) Financing, advances and others Business and retail Financing, advances and others will have levels of collateralisation depending on the nature of the product. The general creditworthiness of a corporate and commercial customer tends to be the most relevant indicator of credit quality of a financing extended to it. The Group and the Bank manage its exposures to assess the customer’s character, industry, business timely manner. The Group and the Bank may take floating charges over all corporate assets and other these customers by completing a credit evaluation to model and capacity to meet their commitments in a collateral in the form of a first charge over real estate, liens and guarantees. 319

Base scenario Next 12 months (2022) Oil Price (“OP”) Gross Domestic Production (“GDP”) House Price Index (“HPI”) Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (“KLCI”) Upside scenario Remaining forecast period (2023) Next 12 months (2022) Remaining forecast period (2023) Downside scenario Next 12 months (2022) Remaining forecast period (2023) 63.34 62.24 72.18 71.07 30.89 29.79 5.30% 4.50% 6.55% 5.75% -0.80% -1.50% 1.32% 1.43% 2.20% 2.31% 0.79% 0.90% 1,750.0 1,827.0 2,199.9 2,276.9 871.5 925.9 An increase in unemployment rate or CPI will generally correlate with higher allowances for credit losses, whereas an increase in the other macroeconomic factors (KLCI, HPI and GDP) will generally correlate with lower allowances for credit losses. Due to the unprecedented nature of the pandemic, and the difficulty of predicting reliably the forecast period, the Group and the Bank have applied certain management overlay on the overall allowance for credit losses. These overlays and post-model adjustments were taken to reflect the latest macroeconomic outlook not captured in the modelled outcome and potential impact to delinquencies and defaults when the various relief and support measures are expiring in 2022. The impact were estimated at portfolio level. Total overlays for ECLs maintained by the Group and by the Bank as at 31 December 2021 are RM335,526,000 (31 December 2020: RM231,574,000). 331

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 39 .FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (c) Market risk Overview Market risk is the risk of adverse impact to the Group’s and the Bank’s arises from fluctuations of market prices and rates. The following are the main market risk factors that the Group and the Bank are exposed to: – Profit Rate Risk: also known as the Rate of Return Risk, is the potential impact on the Group’s and the Bank’s profitability caused by changes in the rate of return due to general market movements or issuer/ customer specific reasons; – Foreign Exchange Risk: the impact of exchange rate movements on the Group’s and the Bank’s currency positions; and – Equity Instrument Risk: the profitability impact on the Group’s and the Bank’s equity positions or investments caused by changes in equity prices or values. The Group and the Bank separates the market risk exposures into either trading book or banking book portfolios. Trading book portfolios include those positions arising from market making, proprietary position taking and other marked-to-market positions as per the Board-approved Trading Book Policy Statements. Banking book portfolios primarily arise from the Group’s and the Bank’s profit rate management of the Bank’s assets and liabilities and investment portfolio mainly for liquidity management. Market risk governance The management of market risk is principally carried out by using sets of policies and guidelines approved by the ALCO and/or BRC, guided by the Board-approved Risk Appetite Statement. The ALCO is responsible under the authority delegated by the BRC for managing market risk at strategic level. Management of market risk The objective is to manage market risk exposures in order to optimise return on risk while maintaining a market risk profile consistent with the Group’s and the Bank’s approved risk appetite. All market risk exposures are managed by Treasury, who has the necessary skills, tools, management and governance to manage such risks. The management of market risk is guided by comprehensive limits, policies and guidelines which are periodically reviewed. The Market Risk Management Department (“MRMD”) is the independent risk control function that is responsible for the implementation of market risk management framework. MRMD is also responsible for developing and reviewing the Group’s and the Bank’s market risk management guidelines and policies, monitoring tools, behavioural assumptions and limit setting methodologies. Escalation procedures are documented and approved by the ALCO and/or BRC. In addition, the market risk exposures and limits are reported to the ALCO and the BRC. Other controls to ensure that market risk exposures remain within tolerable levels include regular stress testing, ad-hoc simulations and rigorous new product approval procedures. Stress test results are produced regularly to determine the impact of changes in profit rates, foreign exchange rates and other risk factors on the Group’s and the Bank’s profitability, capital adequacy and liquidity. The stress test provides the Management and the BRC with an assessment of the financial impact of identified extreme events on the market risk exposures of the Group and the Bank. 336

The Group and the Bank monitor the sensitivity of EaR and EVE under varying profit rate scenarios (i.e. simulation modeling). The model is a combination of standard and non-standard scenarios relevant to the local market. The standard scenarios include the parallel fall or rise in the profit rate curve and historical simulation. These scenarios assume no management action. Hence, it does not incorporate actions that would be taken by Treasury to mitigate the impact of the profit rate risk. In reality, depending on the view on future market movements, Treasury would proactively manage and strategise to change the profit rate exposure profile to minimise losses and to optimise net revenues. The Bank’s hedging and risk mitigation strategies range from the use of derivative financial instruments, such as profit rate swaps, to more intricate hedging strategies to address inordinate profit rate risk exposures. The table below shows the Group’s and the Bank’s profit rate sensitivity to a 150 basis points (2020: 100 basis point) parallel shift as at reporting date. Impact on profit after tax/reserves – Increase/(Decrease) 2021 -150bps RM million 2020 +150bps RM million -100bps RM million +100bps RM million Group Impact on EaR Impact on EVE (206.6) 294.0 206.6 (294.0) (131.4) 241.0 131.4 (241.0) Bank Impact on EaR Impact on EVE (204.7) 293.6 204.7 (293.6) (131.4) 240.9 131.4 (240.9) On 30 June 2020, BNM issued the revised reporting requirements for EVE and EaR which come into effect on 1 January 2021. One of the changes is to report both the EVE and EaR based on 150 basis point parallel shift instead of 100 basis point parallel shift. Another control to manage the profit rate risk in the banking book portfolio includes present value of 1 basis point change (“PV01”) which measures the portfolio’s sensitivity to market rates movement. 341

It is a technique that estimates the potential losses that could occur on risk positions as a result of movements in market rates over a specified time horizon and to a given level of confidence. The VaR model used by the Group and the Bank are based on historical simulation which derives plausible future scenarios from past series of recorded market rates and prices. The historical simulation model used by the Group and the Bank incorporates the following features: •• Potential market movements are calculated with reference to data from the past two years; •• Historical market rates and prices are calculated with reference to foreign exchange rates and profit rates; and •• VaR is calculated using a 99 per cent confidence level and for a one-day holding period. A summary of the VaR position of the Bank’s trading book portfolios at the reporting date is as follows: Bank Profit rate risk Foreign exchange risk Overall Bank Profit rate risk Foreign exchange risk Overall 1.1.2021 to 31.12.2021 As at 31.12.2021 RM million Average RM million Maximum RM million Minimum RM million 0.14 0.36 0.50 1.05 0.66 1.71 2.39 1.19 2.78 0.14 0.34 0.50 1.1.2020 to 31.12.2020 As at 31.12.2020 RM million Average RM million Maximum RM million Minimum RM million 2.76 0.42 3.18 1.88 0.47 2.36 3.32 1.02 3.89 0.01 0.23 0.36 In addition to VaR, the Group and the Bank has put in place the maximum loss limits, position limits, tenor limits and PV01 limits in monitoring the trading book portfolio. 342

The Group and the Bank also has in place the sensitivity limit. For the Bank-wide (trading book and banking book portfolios) foreign exchange risk, the Group and the Bank manage and control by limiting the net open exposure on an aggregate basis. Sensitivity Analysis Assuming that other risk variables remain constant, the foreign currency revaluation sensitivity for the Group and the Bank as at reporting date is summarised as follows (only net open position for major currencies are shown in its specific currency in the table below. For other currencies, these exposures are grouped as ‘Others’): Impact on profit after tax - Increase/(Decrease) 2021 Group and Bank US Dollar vs RM Euro vs RM Others vs RM -1% Depreciation RM’000 12,136 4,576 (193) 2020 +1% Appreciation RM’000 (12,136) (4,576) 193 -1% Depreciation RM’000 +1% Appreciation RM’000 8,844 5,072 (194) (8,844) (5,072) 194 (d) Liquidity risk Overview Liquidity risk is the potential inability of the Group and the Bank to meet its funding needs and regulatory obligation when they fall due, or will have to do it at excessive cost. This risk can arise from mismatches in the timing of cash flows. The Group and the Bank maintains a diversified and stable funding base comprising of retail and corporate customer deposits. This is augmented by wholesale funding and highly liquid assets portfolios. The objective of the Group’s and the Bank’s liquidity management is to ensure that all foreseeable funding commitments and deposit withdrawals can be met when due and that wholesale market remains accessible and cost effective. Savings account, current account, investment accounts (IA) and term deposits form a critical part of the Group’s and the Bank’s funding profile and the Group and the Bank place considerable importance on maintaining their stability. The stability depends upon preserving depositor confidence in the Group and the Bank and the Group’s and the Bank’s capital strength and liquidity, and on competitive and transparent pricing. 343

B A N K I S L A M M A L AY S I A B E R H A D NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 39 .FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) (d) Liquidity risk (continued) Overview (continued) The Group’s and the Bank’s liquidity management is primarily carried out in accordance with Bank Negara Malaysia’s requirements and the internal limits are approved by the ALCO and/or BRC. The limits vary to take account of the depth and liquidity of the local market in which the Group and the Bank operate. The Group and the Bank maintain a strong liquidity position and manage the liquidity profile of its assets, liabilities and commitments to ensure that cash flows are appropriately balanced and all obligations are met when due. The management of liquidity risk is principally carried out by using sets of policies and guidelines approved by ALCO and/or BRC, guided by the Board’s approved Risk Appetite Statement. The ALCO is responsible under the authority delegated by the BRC for managing liquidity risk at strategic level. Management of liquidity risk All liquidity risk exposures are managed by Treasury, who has the necessary skills, tools, management and governance to manage such risks. Limits and other risk controls are set to meet the following objectives: •• Maintaining sufficient liquidity surplus and reserves to sustain a sudden liquidity shock; •• Ensuring cash flows are relatively diversified across all maturities; •• Ensuring deposit base is diversified and not overly concentrated to a relatively small number of depositors; •• Maintaining sufficient borrowing capacity in the Interbank market •• Maintain sufficient highly liquid financial assets; •• Not over-extending financing activities relative to the deposit base; and •• Not over-relying on non-Ringgit liabilities to fund Ringgit assets. MRMD is also responsible for the implementation of liquidity risk management framework. It develops the Group’s and the Bank’s liquidity risk management guidelines, monitoring tools, behavioural assumptions and limit setting methodologies. Escalation procedures are documented and approved by the ALCO and/or BRC, with proper authorities to ratify or approve any excess. In addition, the liquidity risk exposures and limits are reported to the ALCO and the BRC. Stress testing and scenario analysis are important tools used by the Group and the Bank to manage the liquidity risk. Stress test results are produced regularly to determine the impact of a sudden liquidity shock. The stress testing provides the Management and the BRC with an assessment of the financial impact of identified extreme events on the liquidity and funding risk exposures of the Group and the Bank. Another key control feature of the Group’s and the Bank’s liquidity risk management is the liquidity contingency management plans. These plans identify the pre-emptive quantitative and qualitative indicators of stress conditions arising from systemic or other crises and provide guidance on the actions to be taken in order to minimise the adverse implications to the Group and the Bank. 344

They are responsible for the day-to-day management of operational risk. Head of Division/Department (“HOD”) are accountable for effective management of operational risk within their respective divisions. To reinforce accountability and ownership of risk and control, a Risk Controller for each risk taking unit is appointed to assist in driving the risk and control programme for the Group and the Bank. In addition, an Embedded Risk & Compliance Unit (“ERU”) has been established within the significant business and support units (“BU/SU”). The ERU would assist in implementing and monitoring the ORM activities within the BU/SU. The ERU’s relationship and knowledge of the business allow for a more focused implementation and effective oversight of ORM within the BU/SU. •• 2nd line of defence – Operational Risk Management Department (“ORMD”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining the ORM Framework, developing various ORM tools to facilitate the management of operational risk, monitoring the effectiveness of ORM via an integrated operational risk management system, assessing operational risk issues from the risk owner and escalating the issues to the relevant governance level with recommendations on appropriate risk mitigation strategies. In creating a strong risk culture, ORMD is also responsible to promote risk awareness across the Group and the Bank. Shariah Risk Management Department (“SRM”), Compliance Division which includes Shariah Compliance Department (“SCD”) and Information Security Governance (“ISGD”) complement the role of ORMD as the second line of defence. SRM is responsible for managing the Shariah compliance risk (“SCR”) by establishing and maintaining appropriate SRM guidelines, facilitating the process of identifying, assessing, controlling and monitoring SCR and promoting SCR awareness. Compliance Division is responsible for ensuring effective oversight on compliance-related risks such as regulatory compliance risk, compliance risk as well as money laundering and terrorism financing risks through proper classification of risks and develops, reviews and enhances compliance-related training programmes as well as conducts training that promotes awareness creation. SCD of Compliance Division, is responsible for reviewing and monitoring Shariah compliance of the Group’s operations, activities and services at BU/SU level. ISGD is responsible in managing technology risk by establishing, maintaining and enforcing technology risk policies and guidelines, as well as promoting Bank-wide awareness on technology risk. It also works closely with Information Technology Division (“ITD”) in identifying, assessing, mitigating and monitoring of technology risk in the Group and the Bank. •• 3rd line of defence – Internal Audit provides independent assurance to the Board and senior management on the effectiveness of the ORM process. 353

Fair value is the amount at which the financial assets could be exchanged or a financial liability settled, between knowledgeable and willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. The information presented herein represents the estimates of fair values as at the financial position date. Quoted and observable market prices where available, are used as the measure of fair values. Where such quoted and observable market prices are not available, fair values are estimated based on a range of methodologies and assumptions regarding risk characteristics of various financial instruments, discount rates, estimates of future cash flows and other factors. Changes in the assumptions could materially affect these estimates and the corresponding fair values. Fair value information for non-financial assets and liabilities such as investments in subsidiaries and taxation are excluded, as they do not fall within the scope of MFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation which requires the fair value information to be disclosed. The fair values are based on the following methodologies and assumptions: Deposits and placements with banks and other financial institutions For deposits and placements with financial instruments with maturities of less than six months, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair values. For deposits and placements with maturities six months and above, the estimated fair values are based on discounted cash flows using prevailing Islamic money market profit rates at which similar deposits and placements would be made with financial instruments of similar credit risk and remaining period to maturity. Financial assets measured at FVTPL and FVOCI The estimated fair values are generally based on quoted and observable market prices. Where there is no ready market in certain securities, fair values have been estimated by reference to market indicative yields or net tangible asset backing of the investee. Financing, advances and others The fair values are estimated by discounting the estimated future cash flows using the prevailing market rates of financing with similar credit risks and maturities. Deposits from customers and investment accounts of customers The fair values of deposits and investment accounts are deemed to approximate their carrying amounts as rate of returns are determined at the end of their holding periods based on the profit generated from the assets invested. Deposits and placements of banks and other financial institutions The estimated fair values of deposits and placements of banks and other financial institutions with maturities of less than six months approximate the carrying values. For deposits and placements with maturities of six months or more, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using prevailing money market profit rates for deposits and placements with similar remaining period to maturities. 355

For bills and acceptance payable with maturities of six months or more, the fair values are estimated based on discounted cash flows using prevailing market rates for borrowings with similar risk profiles. Fair value hierarchy MFRS 13 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources and unobservable inputs reflect the Group’s market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy is as follows: •• Level 1 – Quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities. This level includes listed equity securities and debt instruments. •• Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This level includes profit rate swaps and structured debt. The sources of input parameters include BNM indicative yields or counterparty credit risk. •• Level 3 – Inputs for asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). This level includes equity instruments and debt instruments with significant unobservable components. The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value and those not carried at fair value for which fair value is disclosed, together with their fair values and carrying amounts shown in the statement of financial position. The table does not include those short-term/on demand financial assets and financial liabilities where the carrying amounts are reasonable approximation of their fair values. 356

(a) Financial instruments carried at fair value Type Valuation technique Significant unobservable inputs Financial assets measured at FVOCI Net tangible assets Net tangible assets Inter-relationship between significant unobservable inputs and fair value measurement Higher net tangible assets results in higher fair value (b) Financial instruments not carried at fair value The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values of the following classes of financial instruments: (i) Other financial assets at amortised cost The fair values of securities that are actively traded is determined by quoted mid prices. For non-actively traded securities, the fair values are estimated using valuation techniques such as discounted cash flows analysis. Where discounted cash flows technique is used, the estimated future cash flows are discounted using applicable prevailing market or indicative rates of similar instruments at the reporting date. (ii) Financing and advances The fair values of variable rate financing are estimated to approximate their carrying values. For fixed rate financing, the fair values are estimated based on expected future cash flows of contractual instalment payments, discounted at applicable and prevailing rates at reporting date offered for similar facilities to new borrowers with similar credit profiles. In respect of impaired financing, the fair values are deemed to approximate the carrying values which are net of impairment allowances. (iii) Subordinated Sukuk Murabahah and Recourse obligations on financing sold to Cagamas The fair values of subordinated obligations are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the applicable prevailing profit rates for borrowings with similar risk profiles. 41.

The direct and indirect effects of the COVID-19 outbreak have impacted the global economy, markets and the Group's and the Bank’s counterparties and clients. The COVID-19 effects have a material negative impact on the Group's and the Bank's results of operations. In particular, the process to determine expected credit losses (“ECL”) requires numerous estimates and assumptions, some of which require a high degree of judgement. Changes in the estimates and assumptions can result in significant changes in ECL. The Group and the Bank are not able to predict the COVID-19’s potential future direct or indirect effects other than as disclosed in Note 39(b)(iii). However, the Group and the Bank are taking actions to mitigate the impacts, and will continue to closely monitor the impact and the related risks as they evolve.

CAPITAL ADEQUACY 2.1 Capital Management The Group’s primary objectives when managing capital are to maintain a strong capital position to support business growth and to maintain investors, depositors, customers, and market confidence. In line with this, the Group manages its capital actively and ensures that the capital adequacy ratios which take into account the risk profile of the Group, are above the regulatory minimum requirement. To ensure that the Group has sufficient capital to support all its business and risk-taking activities, the Group has implemented a sound capital management process in its management systems and processes. A comprehensive capital management framework has been adopted by the Group as a key enabler for value creation which is important to the long-term survival of the Group. This comprehensive capital management process includes thorough risk assessment and risk management techniques that are embedded within the Group’s risk governance. The assessment is based on the approved business plan, its estimation of current risks inherent in the Group and the impact of capital stress tests on the Group’s capital plan. The Group aims to achieve the following capital management objectives: •• •• •• •• •• •• eeting regulatory capital requirements; M Optimising returns to shareholders; Maintaining adequate levels and an optimum mix of different sources of capital to support the underlying risks of its business; Ensuring adequate capital to withstand shocks and stress; Ensuring sufficient capital to expand its business ventures and inorganic growth; and Allocating an appropriate amount of capital to business units to optimise return on capital. The Group’s capital management is guided by the Capital Management Plan, approved by the Board, to ensure the management of capital is consistent and aligned with the Group’s Risk Appetite Statement and ICAAP Document Policy. The Group’s capital management processes comprise: •• •• •• apital Structuring – ensuring that the amount of regulatory and statutory capital available is consistent with C the Group’s growth plan, risk appetite, and desired level of capital adequacy. Capital structuring focuses on selecting appropriate, most cost-effective mix of capital instruments; Capital Allocation – ensuring that the capital is employed efficiently across the Group based on risk-adjusted return on capital; and Capital Optimisation – seeking an optimal level of capital by facilitating the optimisation of the risk profile of the balance sheet. This will be done through: •• reshaping of the balance sheet; •• capital planning, allocation and optimisation; and •• a sound management of the capital buffer. As such, the four fundamental components of a sound capital planning process include: •• •• •• •• Internal control and governance; Capital policy and risk capture; Forward-looking view; and Management framework for preserving capital. 377

CAPITAL ADEQUACY (CONTINUED) 2.2Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (“ICAAP”) (continued) The Group’s ICAAP is conducted on a consolidated basis covering all the Bank’s legal entities as suggested by BNM’s Pillar 2 Guideline. The Group’s ICAAP methodology can be summarised as follows: INTERNAL CAPITAL PLANNING Material Risk Assessment Initial Capital Assessment Economic Capital Definition Capital Supply Capital Demand Capital Stress Test Internal Capital Target Ratio INTERNAL AUDIT INVOLVEMENT Under ICAAP, the following risk types are identified and measured: •• •• •• isks captured under Pillar 1 (i.e. Credit Risk, Market Risk, and Operational Risk); R Risk not fully captured under Pillar 1 (e.g. Migration and Residual Risk); and Risk not covered under Pillar 1 (e.g. Credit Concentration Risk, Profit Rate in the Banking Book, Shariah NonCompliance Risk, Regulatory/Compliance Risk, Contagion Risk, and IT Risk). 2.3Stress Testing Regular stress testing (including reverse stress testing) is performed to assess the Group’s ability to maintain adequate capital under both normal business cycle and unfavourable economic conditions. The stress testing is embedded within the risk and capital management process of the Group and is a key function of capital planning and business planning processes. Stress Testing also plays an important role in: •• •• •• •• Identifying the possible events or future changes in the financial and economic conditions of the country and globally that could potentially have unfavourable effects on the Group’s exposures; Identifying the different portfolios response to changes in key economic variables (profit rate, foreign exchange rate, GDP, etc); Evaluating the Group’s ability to withstand such changes, i.e. its capacity in terms of its capital and earnings, to absorb potentially significant losses; and Analysing the Group’s ability to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirement at all times throughout a reasonably severe economic crisis. The Group has put in place a stress testing programme (including reverse stress testing) which has taken into account all risks deemed material to the Group, namely credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and operational risk including Shariah non-compliance risk, regulatory compliance risk, contagion risk and IT risk. In line with the Group’s Stress Testing Policy, ad-hoc and more frequent stress testing has been conducted to assess the impact of deterioration on specific risk areas, in line with stressed macroeconomic variables. The impact of COVID-19 pandemic outbreak such as repayment assistance, vulnerable portfolio and liquidity risk to the Group were assessed to ensure the Group’s ability to maintain adequate capital under stressed condition. 380

RISK MANAGEMENT 3.1Overview The Group’s mission with respect to risk management is to advance its risk management capabilities, culture and practices so as to be in line with internationally accepted standards and practices. In that regard, the specific objectives of managing risk are to: •• •• •• •• •• •• •• Inculcate a risk-awareness culture throughout the Group; Establish a standard approach and methodology in managing risks namely credit, market, liquidity, operational, IT & cyber risk, compliance risks and contagion risk across the Group; Clarify functional structures including objectives, roles and responsibilities; Implement and use a risk management information system that meets the international standards on confidentiality, integrity and its availability; Develop and use tools, such as economic capital, value at risk, and stress testing to support the measurement of risks and enhance risk-based decisions; Ensure that risk policies and overall risk appetite are in line with business targets; and Ensure that the Group’s capital can support current and planned business needs in terms of risk exposures. 3.2Risk Management Functional and Governance Structure The Group has aligned its organisational responsibilities with the objective of ensuring a common view of risks across the Group. As a matter of prudence and good governance, the Group’s core risk management functions, which report to the Board Risk Committee (“BRC”), are independent and segregated from the business divisions and centralised at head office. The following illustrates the Group’s governance structure: Board Committees Shariah Supervisory Council (SSC) Board of Directors Board Audit & Examination Committee (BAEC) Board IT Committee (BITC) Board Strategic & Sustainability Committee (BSSC) Board Financing Review Committee (BFRC) Boards Nomination & Remuneration Committee (BNRC) Management Committees Group Chief Executive Officer Management Committee (MANCO) Sadaqa House and Zakat Committee (SHZC) Management Audit Committee (MAC) Management IT Committee (MITC) Sustainability Committee (SC) Financing Committees (UIC,FCA, FCB, RFC) Bilob Oversight Committee (BOC) Tender Committee (TECA/TECB) Rescheduling & Restructuring Oversight Committee (R&R) 388 Board Risk Committee (BRC) Business Continuity Management Committee (BCMC) Management Risk Control Committee (MRCC) Asset & Liability Management Committee (ALCO) Recovery Management Committee (RMC) Data Management Committee (DMC) Operational Risk Control Committee (ORCC)

RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 3.2Risk Management Functional and Governance Structure (continued) The Group recognises the fact that the essence of banking and financial services is centred on risk taking activities. The Group therefore: •• •• •• ecognises that it has to manage risks effectively to achieve its business targets; R Reaches an optimum level of risk-return in order to maximise stakeholders’ value; and Ensures effective and integrated risk management processes that are commensurate with the size and complexity of the current and future operations of the Group within its risk appetite and tolerance. The Group has established the Group Risk Appetite Statement Policy that forms an integral part of the Group’s strategy and business plans. Risk appetite is an expression of the maximum level of risk that the Group is prepared to accept in support of a stated strategy, impacting all businesses from a credit, market and operational risk viewpoint. 4. CREDIT RISK 4.1Overview Credit risk is the risk of a customer or counterparty failing to fulfil its financial obligations in accordance with agreed terms. It arises from all transactions that could lead to actual, contingent or potential claims against any party, customer or obligor (collectively referred to as counterparties). The types of credit risks that the Group considers to be material include: Default Risk, Counterparty Risk, Credit Concentration Risk, Residual/Credit Mitigation Risk and Migration Risk. 4.2Credit Risk Governance The management of credit risk is principally carried out by using sets of policies and guidelines approved by the Management Risk Control Committee (“MRCC”) and/or BRC, guided by the Boards’ approved Group Risk Appetite Statement Policy. The Group has several levels of Financing Committees, which assess and approve credits at their specified authority levels. MRCC is responsible under the authority delegated by BRC for managing credit risk at strategic level. MRCC reviews the Group’s credit risk policies and guidelines, aligns credit risk management with business strategies and planning, reviews credit profile of the credit portfolios and recommends necessary actions to ensure that the credit risk remains within established risk tolerance levels. The Group’s credit risk management governance includes the establishment of detailed credit risk policies, guidelines and procedures which document the Group’s financing standards, discretionary powers for financing approval, credit risk ratings methodologies and models, acceptable collaterals and valuation, and the review, rehabilitation and restructuring of problematic and delinquent financing. 389

CREDIT RISK 4.3Management of Credit Risk The management of credit risk is being performed by the Group Credit Management Division (“CMD”) and Group Risk Management Division (“RMD”) and two other units outside of CMD and RMD domain, namely, Credit Administration Department and Recovery & Rehabilitation Division. The combined objectives are, amongst others: •• •• •• •• o build a high quality credit portfolio which is in line with the Group’s overall strategy and risk appetite; T To ensure that the Group is compensated for the risk taken, balancing/optimising the risk/return relationship; To develop an increasing ability to recognise, measure and avoid or mitigate potential credit risk problem areas; and To conform with statutory, regulatory and internal credit requirements. The Group monitors its credit exposures either on a portfolio basis or individual basis through annual reviews. Credit risk is proactively monitored through a set of early warning signals that could trigger immediate reviews of (a certain part of) the portfolio. The affected portfolio or financing is placed on a watchlist to enforce close monitoring and prevent financing from turning impaired and to increase chances of full recovery. A detailed limit structure is in place to ensure that risks taken are within the risk appetite as set by the Board and to avoid credit risk concentration on a single customer, sector, product, etc. Credit risk arising from dealing and investing activities are managed by the establishment of limits which include counterparty limits and permissible acquisition of private entities’ instruments, subject to a specified minimum rating threshold. Furthermore, the dealing and investing activities are monitored by an independent middle office unit. 4.4Capital Treatment for Credit Risk The Group adopts the Standardised Approach to compute the credit risk capital requirement under BNM’s CAFIB. 390

CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) 4.5Credit Quality of Gross Financing and Advances (continued) (c) Impaired Financing and Advances A financing is classified as impaired when the principal or profit or both are past due for three months or more, or where a financing is in arrears for less than three months, but the financing exhibits indications of significant credit weakness. The financing or group of financings is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that have occurred after the initial recognition of the financing (a ‘loss event’) and that the loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financing or group of financings that can be reliably estimated. The Group and the Bank first assess individually whether the objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financings which are individually significant, and collectively for financings which are not individually significant. If it is determined that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financing, the financing is included in a group of financings with similar credit risk characteristic and collectively assessed for impairment. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the financing’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The carrying amount of the financing is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) 4.7Assignment of Risk Weights for Portfolios Under the Standardised Approach (continued) Unrated and Rated Counterparties As a general rule, the rating specific to the credit exposure is used, i.e. the issue rating. Where no specific rating exists, the credit rating assigned to the issuer or counterparty of that particular credit exposure is used. In cases where an exposure has neither an issue nor an issuer rating, it is deemed as unrated or the rating of another rated obligation of the same counterparty may be used if the exposure is ranked at least pari passu with the obligation that is rated, as stipulated in the CAFIB Guideline. Where a counterparty or an exposure is rated by more than one ECAI, the second highest rating is used to determine the risk weight. In cases where the credit exposures are secured by guarantees issued by eligible or rated guarantors, the risk weights similar to that of the guarantor are assigned. The below table summarises the rules governing the assignment of risk weights under the Standardised Approach: Rating Category S & P MOODY’S FITCH RAM MARC 1 AAA to AA- Aaa to Aa3 AAA to AA- AAA to AA3 AAA to AA- 2 A+ to A- A1 to A3 A+ to A- A1 to A3 A+ to A- 3 BBB+ to BBB- Baa1 to Baa3 BBB+ to BBB- BBB1 to BBB3 BBB+ to BBB- 4 BB+ to BB- Ba1 to Ba3 BB+ to BB- BB1 to BB3 BB+ to BB- 5 B+ to B- B1 to B3 B+ to B- B1 to B3 B+ to B- 6 CCC+ and below Caa1 and below CCC+ and below C1 and below C+ and below The below table summarises risk weight mapping matrix for each credit quality rating category: Risk Weights Based on Credit Rating of the Counterparty Exposure Class Banking Institutions Rating Category 1 2 3 4 5 6 Unrated Sovereign and Central Banks Corporate Maturity > 6 months Maturity <= 6 months Maturity <= 3 months 0% 20% 50% 100% 100% 150% 100% 20% 50% 100% 100% 150% 150% 100% 20% 50% 50% 100% 100% 150% 50% 20% 20% 20% 50% 50% 150% 20% 20% Under CAFIB, exposures to and/or guaranteed by the Federal Government of Malaysia and Bank Negara Malaysia are accorded a preferential sovereign risk weight of 0%. 409

CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED) 4.9Credit Risk Mitigation (CRM) As a first way out, the assessment of credit when granting a financing facility is based on a particular customer’s cash flow as the main source of payment and not on the collateral offered. However, the acceptance of tangible security as collateral would offer a second way out in the event of business failure thereby improving recovery rates. The types of collaterals accepted by the Group would have an impact on the calculation of the Group’s capital adequacy as the quality and the type of collaterals determine whether the Group is able to obtain capital relief and the extent of such relief. Capital relief is defined as the assignment of a lower or zero risk weight to the counterparty exposure by setting off or reducing the counterparty exposure against the collateral value. The main types of collaterals obtained by the Group to mitigate credit risks are as follows: (a) Cash on lien (b) Landed property (c) Shariah compliant quoted shares and unit trusts (d) Malaysian Federal Government Securities (e) Rated/Unrated Islamic Securities/Sukuk (f)Guarantee The reliance that can be placed on CRM is carefully assessed in light of issues such as compliance with Shariah rules and principles, legal enforceability, market value and counterparty credit risk of the guarantor. The Group has put in place policies and procedures which govern the determination of eligibility of various collaterals to protect the Group’s position from the onset of a customer relationship on the CRM, for instance, in requiring standard terms and conditions or specifically agreed upon documentation to ensure the legal enforceability of the credit risk mitigants. In order to obtain a fair assessment of collateral securing the financing facility, a valuation is performed periodically ranging from weekly to annually, depending on the type, liquidity and volatility of the collateral value. In mitigating the counterparty credit risks arising from foreign exchange and derivatives transactions, the Group enters into master agreements that provide for closeout netting with counterparties, whenever possible. A master agreement that governs all transactions between the two parties, creates a greater legal certainty that the netting of outstanding obligations can be enforced upon termination of outstanding transactions if an event of default occurs. 416

MARKET RISK 5.1Overview All the Group’s financial instruments are subject to the risk that market prices and rates will move, resulting in profit or losses to the Group. The following are the main market risk factors that the Group is exposed to: •• •• •• rofit Rate Risk: also known as the Rate of Return Risk is the potential impact on the Group’s profitability P and capital caused by changes in the rate of return, due to general market movements or issuer/customer specific reasons; Foreign Exchange Risk: the impact of exchange rate movements on the Group’s currency positions; Equity Investment Risk: the profitability impact on the Group’s equity positions or investments caused by changes in equity prices or values; The Group separates the market risk exposures into either trading book or banking book portfolios. Trading book portfolios include those positions arising from market making, proprietary position taking and other marked-tomarket positions as per the Board approved Trading Book Policy Statements. Banking book portfolios primarily arise from the Group’s profit rate management of the Group’s asset & liabilities and investment portfolio mainly for liquidity management. 5.2Market Risk Governance The management of market risk is principally carried out by using sets of policies and guidelines approved by Asset & Liability Committee (“ALCO”) and/or BRC, guided by the Board’s approved Group Risk Appetite Statement Policy. ALCO is responsible under the authority delegated by BRC for managing market risk at strategic level. 5.3Management of Market Risk The objective is to manage market risk exposures in order to optimise return on risk while maintaining a market risk profile consistent with the Group’s approved risk appetite. All market risk exposures are managed by Treasury, who has the necessary skills, tools, management and governance to manage such risks. The management of market risk is guided by comprehensive limits, policies and guidelines which are periodically reviewed. Market Risk Management Department (“MRMD”) is an independent risk control function and is responsible for ensuring effective implementation of market risk management framework. MRMD is also responsible for developing and reviewing the Group’s market risk management guidelines and policies, monitoring tools, behavioural assumptions and limit setting methodologies. Strict escalation procedures are documented and approved by ALCO and/or BRC. In addition, the market risk exposures and limits are regularly reported to ALCO and BRC. Other controls to ensure that market risk exposures remain within tolerable levels include regular stress testing, ad-hoc simulations, and rigorous new product approval procedures. Stress test results are produced regularly to determine the impact of changes in profit rates, foreign exchange rates and other risk factors on the Group’s profitability, capital adequacy and liquidity. The stress test provides the Management and BRC with an assessment of the financial impact of identified extreme events on the market risk exposures of the Group. 421

MARKET RISK (CONTINUED) 5.3Management of Market Risk (continued) a) Profit rate risk in the banking book portfolio Profit rate risk in the banking book portfolio is managed and controlled using measurement tools known as Earnings-at-Risk (“EaR”) and Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”). The Group monitors the sensitivity of EaR and EVE under varying profit rate scenarios (i.e., simulation modelling). The model is a combination of standard and non-standard scenarios relevant to the local market. The standard scenarios include the parallel fall or rise in the profit rate curve and historical simulation. These scenarios assume no management action. Hence, it does not incorporate actions that would be taken by Treasury to mitigate the impact of the profit rate risk. In reality, depending on the view on future market movements, Treasury would proactively manage and strategise to change the profit rate exposure profile to minimise losses and to optimise net revenues. The Group’s hedging and risk mitigation strategies range from the use of derivative financial instruments, such as profit rate swaps, to more intricate hedging strategies to address inordinate profit rate risk exposures.

MARKET RISK (CONTINUED) 5.3Management of Market Risk (continued) b) Market Risk in the trading book portfolio Market risk in the trading book portfolio is monitored and managed using Value-at-Risk (“VaR”). It is a technique that estimates the potential losses that could occur as a result of market rates movements over a specified time horizon and to a given level of confidence. The VaR model used by the Bank is based on historical simulation which derives plausible future scenarios from the past series of recorded market rates and prices. The historical simulation model used by the Bank incorporates the following features: •• •• •• otential market movements are calculated with reference to data from the past two years; P Historical market rates are calculated with reference to foreign exchange rates and profit rates; and VaR is calculated using a 99 per cent confidence level and for a one-day holding period. A summary of the VaR position of the Bank’s trading book portfolios as at the reporting date is as follows: As at 31.12.2021 Bank Profit Rate Risk Foreign Exchange Risk Overall RM million Average RM million Maximum RM million Minimum RM million 0.14 0.36 0.50 1.05 0.66 1.71 2.39 1.19 2.78 0.14 0.34 0.50 As at 31.12.2020 Bank Profit Rate Risk Foreign Exchange Risk Overall 1.1.2021 to 31.12.2021 1.1.2020 to 31.12.2020 RM million Average RM million Maximum RM million Minimum RM million 2.76 0.42 3.18 1.88 0.47 2.36 3.32 1.02 3.89 0.01 0.23 0.36 423

LIQUIDITY RISK 6.1Overview Liquidity risk is the risk of adverse impact to the financial condition of the Group, or the soundness of the Group being adversely affected by an inability (or perceived inability) to meet its contractual obligations. This risk can arise from mismatches in the timing of cash flows. The Group maintains a diversified and stable funding base comprising retail and corporate customer deposits. This is augmented by wholesale funding and highly liquid assets portfolios. The objectives of the Group’s liquidity management are to ensure that all foreseeable funding commitments and deposit withdrawals can be met when due and that wholesale market access remains accessible and cost effective. Savings accounts, current accounts, investment accounts (IA) and term deposits form a critical part of the Group’s funding profile and the Group places considerable importance on maintaining their stability. The stability depends upon preserving depositors’ confidence in the Group and the Group’s capital strength and liquidity, and on competitive and transparent pricing. 424

LIQUIDITY RISK (CONTINUED) 6.1 Overview (continued) The Group’s liquidity management is primarily carried out in accordance with Bank Negara Malaysia’s requirements and the internal limits approved by ALCO and/or BRC. The limits vary, taking into account the depth and liquidity of the market in which the Group operates. The Group maintains a strong liquidity position and manages the liquidity profile of its assets, liabilities, and commitments to ensure that cash flows are appropriately balanced, and all obligations are met when due. The Group’s liquidity management process includes: •• •• •• •• •• •• aily projection of cash flows and ensuring that the Group has sufficient liquidity surplus and reserves to D sustain a sudden liquidity shock; Projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assets necessary in relation thereto; Maintaining liabilities of appropriate term relative to the asset base; Maintaining a diverse range of funding sources with adequate back-up facilities; Monitoring depositor concentration in order to avoid undue reliance on large individual depositors and ensure a satisfactory overall funding mix; and Managing the maturities and diversifying funding liabilities across products and counterparties. 6.2Liquidity Risk Governance The management of liquidity risk is principally carried out by using sets of policies and guidelines approved by ALCO and/or BRC, guided by the Board’s approved Group Risk Appetite Statement Policy. ALCO is responsible under the authority delegated by BRC for managing liquidity risk at strategic level. 6.3Management of Liquidity Risk All liquidity risk exposures are managed by Treasury, who has the necessary skills, tools, management and governance to manage such risks. Limits and triggers are set to meet the following objectives: •• •• •• •• •• aintaining sufficient liquidity surplus and reserves to sustain a sudden liquidity shock; M Ensuring that cash flows are relatively diversified across all maturities; Ensuring that the deposit base is not overly concentrated on a relatively small number of depositors; Maintaining sufficient borrowing capacity in the Interbank market and highly liquid financial assets to back it up; and Not over-extending financing activities relative to the deposit base. MRMD is an independent risk control function and is responsible for ensuring efficient implementation of liquidity risk framework. It is also responsible for developing the Group’s liquidity risk management guidelines, monitoring tools, behavioural assumptions and limit setting methodologies. Strict escalation procedures are documented and approved by ALCO and/or BRC, with proper authorities to ratify or approve the excess. In addition, the liquidity risk exposures and limits are regularly reported to ALCO and BRC. Stress testing and scenario analysis are important tools used by the Group to manage the liquidity risk. Stress test results are produced regularly to determine the impact of a sudden liquidity shock. The stress-testing provides the Management and BRC with an assessment of the financial impact of identified extreme events on the liquidity and funding risk exposures of the Group. Another key control feature of the Group’s liquidity risk management is the liquidity contingency management plans. These plans identify the pre-emptive quantitative and qualitative indicators of stress conditions arising from systemic or other crises and provide guidance on actions to be taken in order to minimise the adverse implications to the Group. 425

OPERATIONAL RISK 7.1Overview Operational Risk is defined as the “risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events, which includes legal risk and Shariah non-compliance risk but excludes strategic and reputational risk”. It is inherent in all banking products, activities, processes and systems and the effective management of operational risk has always been a fundamental element of a bank’s risk management programme. 7.2Operational Risk Governance The Group’s operational risk management (“ORM”) is guided by its ORM Policy, Guideline and Enterprise-Wide Risk Management Policy, as well as its Group Risk Appetite Statement Policy which are designed to provide a sound and well-controlled operational environment within the Group. BRC is a committee of Board to oversee the Management’s activities in managing risks for the Group, including operational risk. Its roles, with regard to ORM, include reviewing and recommending ORM Policy, strategies and risk appetite for Board’s approval. MRCC, under the authority delegated by BRC is responsible to perform the oversight function and to ensure effective management of issues relating to operational risk at strategic level. Operational Risk Control Committee (“ORCC”) which is a sub-committee of MRCC is primarily responsible in ensuring effective implementation and maintenance of policies, processes, and systems for managing operational risk for the Group. Notwithstanding the above, the various Business & Support Units (“BU/SU”) are responsible for managing operational risk within their respective domains on a day-to-day basis and ensuring that their business & operational activities are carried out within the established ORM policies, guidelines, procedures and limits. To reinforce accountability and ownership of risk & control at BU/SU level, a Risk Controller (“RC”) for each BU/SU is appointed and Embedded Risk and Compliance Unit (“ERU”) is established at selected BU/SU to assist in driving the risk & control programme for the Group. Ultimately, all staff of the Group are to ensure they properly discharge their day-to-day responsibilities and are well-equipped with the necessary knowledge including the policies and procedures in executing their job functions. This is in line with our Risk Management Tagline, i.e., “Managing Risk is Everyone’s Business”. 426

OPERATIONAL RISK (CONTINUED) 7.3Management of Operational Risk The Group recognises and emphasises the importance of ORM and manages this risk through a control-based environment where processes are documented, authorisation is independent, transactions are reconciled and monitored, and business activities are carried out within the established ORM policies, guidelines, procedures, and limits. The Group’s overall governance approach in managing operational risk is premised on the Three Lines of Defence Approach: a)1st Line of Defence – The risk owner or risk-taking unit i.e., BU/SU is accountable for putting in place a robust control environment within their respective units. They are responsible for the day-to-day management of operational risk. To reinforce accountability and ownership of risk and control within 1st Line of Defence, the RC is appointed at each BU/SU and ERU is established at selected BU/SU. 2nd Line of Defence – Operational Risk Management Department (“ORMD”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining the ORM Policy and its supporting guidelines/manuals, developing methodologies and various ORM tools to facilitate the management of operational risk, monitoring the effectiveness of ORM, assessing operational risk issues from the risk owner and escalating operational risk issues to the relevant governance level with recommendations on appropriate risk mitigation strategies. In creating a strong risk culture, ORMD is also responsible to promote risk awareness across the Group. Shariah Risk Management Unit (“SRMU”), which forms part of ORMD, is responsible for managing the Shariah non-compliance risk (“SNCR”) by establishing and maintaining appropriate guidelines on Shariah Risk Management (SRM) by facilitating the process of identifying, assessing, controlling, and monitoring SNCR and promoting SNCR awareness. Group Compliance Division, which includes Shariah Compliance Department and Group Information Security & Governance Division (“ISGD”) complement the role of ORMD as the 2nd Line of Defence. Group Compliance Division is responsible for ensuring effective oversight on compliance-related risks such as regulatory compliance risk, compliance risk, corruption risk, money laundering and terrorism financing risks through proper classification of risks and developing, reviewing, and enhancing compliance-related training programmes, as well as conducting trainings that promote awareness creation. Shariah Compliance Department under Group Compliance Division is responsible for reviewing and monitoring Shariah compliance of the Group’s operations, activities, and services at BU/SU level. ISGD is responsible in managing information technology risk by establishing, maintaining, and enforcing information technology risk policies/guidelines and it works closely with Group Technology Division in identifying, assessing, mitigating, and monitoring of information technology risk in the Group. b)3rd Line of Defence – Group Internal Audit including Shariah Audit Department provides independent assurance to the Board and senior management on the effectiveness of the ORM and SRM process. 427

OPERATIONAL RISK (CONTINUED) 7.4ORM Tools & Mitigation Strategies The Group employs ORM tools comprising proactive and reactive tools which are in line with the best practices in managing and mitigating operational risks, namely: Overview of ORM Tools Proactive Tools Risk Control Self-Assessment •• •• Self-assessment to identify and assess operational risks by Risk Owners; The tool creates ownership and increases operational risk awareness. Key Risk Indicator •• •• A forwardlooking tool to identify potential risks and to enable counter measures and risk mitigation actions before an incident occurs (early warning system); To assist management to focus on high-risk issues. Operational Risk Review •• •• End-to-end review of activities to identify risks and ensure appropriate controls are in place and are effective; To ensure controls are aligned with RCSA and able to mitigate the identified risk. Reactive Tools New Product Services Approval Process •• To ensure risks are identified and adequate controls are in place prior to launching of new product/ services. Risk Loss Event Management & Reporting •• Centralised group-wide loss database which provides line of business loss reporting overview, tracks frequency of events and facilitates detailed reviews of the incident and its impact. Risk Analysis & Reporting •• Analysis and reporting of qualitative and quantitative results from various ORM tools. Scenario Analysis •• A systematic and forward-looking tool of obtaining expert opinions to derive new risks, test the efficiency of existing controls and highlights unexpected risks. In addition, a comprehensive Business Continuity Management (“BCM”) function has been established within the Group to ensure that in the event of material disruptions from internal or external events, critical business functions can be maintained or restored in a timely manner. This ensures minimal adverse impact on customers, staff and products and services. BCM constitutes an essential component of the Group’s risk management process by providing a controlled response to potential operational risk that could have a significant impact on the Group’s critical processes and revenue streams. The Group is also continuously reviewing its critical business operations’ resilience through regular testing and dependencies assessment on its assets (systems, data, third parties, facilities, processes and people) in order to ensure it has the required capability and resources to effectively prepare for different disruption events. 428

OPERATIONAL RISK (CONTINUED) 7.4ORM Tools & Mitigation Strategies (continued) As part of the risk transfer strategy, the Group obtains a 3rd party Takaful coverage to cover for the Group’s high impact loss events. The Group also ensures that the group-wide Operational Risk awareness programme is conducted on an ongoing basis. This training programme emphasises on inculcating an operational risk culture among staff, effective implementation of ORM tools, fraud awareness, BCM and other aspects of ORM. 7.5Capital Treatment for Operational Risk Operational Risk capital charge is calculated using the BIA as per BNM’s CAFIB. The BIA for operational risk capital charge calculation applies an alpha (15%) to the average of positive gross income that was achieved over the previous three years by the Group. The RWA amount is computed by multiplying the minimum capital required with a multiplier of 12.5 (reciprocal of 8%). 8. SHARIAH GOVERNANCE 8.1Overview By virtue of BNM’s Shariah Governance Policy Document (“SGPD”), the Group has established a sound and robust Shariah governance framework with the emphasis placed on the roles of its key functionalities, which include having in place an effective and responsible Board and Management and an independent Shariah Supervisory Council (“SSC”) that is supported by strong and competent internal Shariah functions. As part of the robust Shariah governance framework, to date, the Group has put in place the Shariah Compliance Policy, Shariah Compliance Guideline, Business Zakat Guideline and Charity Fund Management Guideline. These help to ensure the Group’s business activities and behaviours are in compliance with Shariah rules and principles, provisions of the Islamic Financial Services Act (“IFSA”) 2013, BNM’s SGPD and its other rules and regulations, and the resolutions of BNM and Securities Commission (“SC”)’s Shariah Advisory Council and the SSC. 8.2Shariah Risk Management The Group’s Shariah risk management as part of operational risk management is guided by Operational Risk Management (“ORM”) Policy and Guidelines which set out the high-level framework supporting the Shariah Compliance Policy and detail out the Shariah risk management processes and tools. The policy and guidelines serve to provide a consistent group-wide framework for managing SNCR across the Group. In addition to this, the Risk Loss Event Management and Reporting (‘’RLEMR”) Guideline provides sound mechanism on Shariah non-compliance (“SNC”) management and reporting, in order to ensure the Group strictly complies with Shariah rules and principles, as well as the regulatory requirements. The guideline has been established to be in line with the mechanism set out by BNM’s Operational Risk Reporting Requirement – Operational Risk Integrated Online Network (“ORION”) and to ensure compliance with section 28(3) of the IFSA 2013 which requires any SNC event to be immediately reported to BNM. Additionally, pursuant to this guideline, any actual SNC events caused by operational lapses including negligence, breach of policies and lack of due care by staff may be subject to disciplinary action. Being part of operational risk, Shariah risk management leverages on the same ORM principles, processes, and tools. The responsibility of managing SNCR is spearheaded by the Group’s Shariah Risk Management Unit (“SRMU”). In general, all ORM tools are extended to the process of managing SNCR. However, the tools are modified to suit the regulatory requirements on Shariah governance in order to provide a robust and consistent approach in managing SNCR. 429

SHARIAH GOVERNANCE (CONTINUED) 8.2Shariah Risk Management (continued) Extensive and continuous Shariah risk awareness initiatives have been conducted for the Group’s staff and Risk Controllers (“RC”) to ensure understanding towards Shariah requirements/rulings, effective identification of SNC risks, establishment of controls to prevent SNC event, and to keep updated on the latest Shariah requirements/ rulings issued by Shariah Division, SSC and regulators, and any occurrence of Shariah non-compliance event. In the year 2021, 8 Shariah risk awareness sessions were conducted involving all RCs from HQ and branches. In addition, it is compulsory for all staff to participate in Shariah training via e-Learning as a refresher course. 8.3Shariah Non-Compliance (“SNC”) Events An SNC event is a result of the Group’s failure to comply with the Shariah rules and principles as determined by the Bank’s Shariah Supervisory Council, as well as other relevant body or institution such as the Shariah Advisory Council of BNM and Securities Commission. Throughout the year 2021, there were five (5) incidents confirmed as SNC events by the SSC. In brief, the SNC events were related to non-execution of aqad for deposit-based product, outdated form used for account opening and incomprehensive product structure for the purpose of vehicle refinancing. None of these events have financial impact that contributed to SNC Income. To prevent similar recurrence, the Group is continuously improving its Shariah compliance culture through the issuance of reminders, conducting on-going awareness trainings, as well as establishing additional controls to ensure compliance with Shariah requirements. 8.4Shariah Non-Compliant Income 31 December 2021 31 December 2020 RM41,182.96 RM59,960.47 The main contributors of the SNC income for 2021 were commissions from third party investment product offering (RM31,728.68) and commissions from SNC merchants of card business (RM9,454.28). The amount was disposed to charitable causes upon SSC’s approval. All SNC events and rectification plans were presented and approved by the Board/SSC and reported to BNM in accordance with the prescribed reporting requirement by the regulator. 9. INVESTMENT ACCOUNT 9.1Overview Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 (“IFSA”) distinguishes investment account (IA) from Islamic deposits, where Shariah contracts that need to be applied for IA products are non-principal guaranteed, while Shariah contracts for deposit products are principal guaranteed. In line with the implementation of the IFSA, the Group has developed investment account products based on Mudarabah and Wakalah contracts. Mudarabah is a contract between a customer as capital provider and the Group as an entrepreneur under which the customer provides capital to be managed by the Group and any profit generated is shared according to a mutually agreed profit-sharing ratio (PSR) whilst financial losses are borne by the customer provided that such losses are not due to the Group’s misconduct, negligence or breach of specified terms. 430
