This describes the Bank Rakyat’s aspiration to add colour to lives at all levels of the community. The front cover of this report carries the theme of THE ART OF CONNECTION which is illustrated through the evolution and transformation of financial solutions as outlined by Bank Rakyat. Connections are defined as relationships, links and bonds. This year’s annual report cover design reveals how a work of art is created from the merging of vision, inspiration, drawing and colouring. The themes and narratives presented flow from this concept, starting with the front page of our report, the segment separators as well as the strategic narrative coverage for the entire report. Aware of economic trends as well as industry competition, THE ART OF CONNECTION is an inspiration to Bank Rakyat to remain connected in the hearts of our members and customers. We reach out to communities in every corner of the state, both inside and outside the city, to become a supportive partner that is able surmount differences. The bonds that have connected us to our stakeholders for six decades have been a platform for us to continue to popularise our banking services in upholding our position as the number 1 progressive Islamic cooperative bank in Malaysia.

  20. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD 36 Chairman 's Statement Chairman's Statement 37 Strengthening Stakeholders Dear Shareholders, Digital connectivity has become a buzzword in the banking industry this past year, but for Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Bhd (Bank Rakyat or the Bank), the word connection means more than just accessibility. The Bank has always prioritised forging of positive relationships with our stakeholders to ensure the economic and social well-being of the Cooperative community. This is done primarily through financial support for our members and customers in charting the nation’s economic progress and rakyat’s overall socio-economic. DATUK HAJI ABD RANI LEBAI JAAFAR Chairman of Bank Rakyat The role we play as Malaysia’s largest Development Financial Institution (DFI) and the second largest Islamic financier was never more critical than in the past year, as continued disruptions to economic activity took a heavy toll on small businesses. However, the proactive response from the government demonstrated resilient leadership, which paved a robust response. Alhamdulilah, guided by the National Entrepreneurship Policy 2030 (DKN2030), set out by the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (KUSKOP), Bank Rakyat focused on implementing the outlined remedial actions to help as many Cooperatives and MSMEs as possible to transition into the phase of recovery. On behalf of the Board of Directors (“the Board”), I am proud to present Bank Rakyat’s annual report for the financial year, which ended 31 December 2021 (FY2021). MAKING PROGRESS ON SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS AND BR25 The pandemic has tested the financial resilience of Malaysia’s financial industry and its ability to shelter customers, employees, and stakeholders, from a prolonged storm of uncertainties. While executing BR25 strategies, Bank Rakyat’s priority for the year was also to develop a greater understanding of stakeholder needs and expectations, assist and navigate them through the impacts of COVID-19, and help them recover and rebuild with resilience. This became a part of our transformative journey as the Execution Phase of our BR25 journey was put in motion. The BR25 strategic plan which was developed to ensure Bank Rakyat stays relevant as a well-governed sustainable bank amid a fast-changing, increasingly competitive landscape. 2021 was the year we began to execute key deliverables under the six established blueprints of Great Customer Experience, Digitalisation, SMEC Business, Human Capital, Sustainability, and Shariah Leadership. Highlights included the completion of 10 new SME and Cooperatives Business Centres (SMECs) nationwide as part of the Bank’s diversification strategy away from being overdependant on retail financing. This ensures Bank Rakyat is on track with the target of an outstanding balance of over RM7 billion for total SMEC financing by 2025, with about RM3 billion achieved as of 2021. The Bank has also embarked on eight key collaborations and partnerships with various agencies within the KUSKOP ecosystem, as well as communities, Cooperatives and private organisations, to support this key economic sector with targeted products and services. FROM THE TOP FROM THE TOP Connections With Our
  21. 38 Chairman 's Statement With the new core banking system capabilities, digital ventures could be rolled out successively during the year. Highlights include launching the Quick Response to Entrepreneurs (QR2E) virtual banking platform for members and customers to access comprehensive, fast, and simple digital financial advisory services and product applications; and the iRakyat Mobile Banking application, which achieved 71,210 downloads in 2021. FROM THE TOP Advancing on the Human Capital blueprint, the Bank has embarked on establishing the Centre of Excellence to drive the upskilling and reskilling as well as build a culture of thinking and learning organisation. In 2021, more than 70% or 4,313 personnal, have undergone training programmes. The Bank has also participated in the Best Companies to Work for in Asia (2020 and 2021), organised by HR Asia to benchmark our performance against other industries and markets, as we target to build our brand as a desirable employer that can attract and retain top talents. Steps towards demonstrating Shariah Leadership were also taken through the active participation the Bank’s representatives in presentations at international conferences and symposiums. In addition, Bank Rakyat ventured into two strategic partnerships with the International Shariah Research Academy for Islamic Finance (ISRA) and Derassat for Research Consulting Islamic Finance, based in Doha, Qatar to enhance cooperation and knowledge-sharing efforts. Chairman's Statement Bank Rakyat’s risk management was also fortified in FY2021 by reviewing the Payment Assistance Programme following the requirements as delineated by BNM on Pakej Perlindungan Rakyat dan Pemulihan Ekonomi (PEMULIH). All in all, good progress was made on BR25 in 2021. We are confidently on track with our BR25 strategy and intent to grow as a sustainable bank focused on our mandate to grow the Cooperatives segment and support entrepreneurship throught a holistic intervention, including financing and advisory solutions. This was timely as the Bank plays an integral role in supporting the government’s effort by introducing various funds to assist Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Risk Management provided technical assistance to simplify the credit underwriting process with predefined parameters aligned to the minimum acceptance criteria as recommended by the regulator or fund providers to expedite the approval process. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE IN FY2021 The pandemic has shown that prudent financial management must withstand external forces. This has strengthened our resolve to deliver sustainable shareholder returns, while creating long-term value for all stakeholders through steadfast adherence to BR25. It is heartening to see that the results achieved in 2021 maintains our position as the most profitable Cooperative Bank, and the second-largest Islamic financial institution in Malaysia. For the 23rd consecutive year, we delivered double-digit dividends provided to its members with a declaration of 15% dividends and an estimated payout of RM429.50 million, to 827,066 members. The Group continued to contribute 2% of its PBTZ to the Cooperative Education Trust Fund and 1% to the Cooperative Development Provident Fund, totalling RM48.45 million for the year. Risk-Weighted Capital Ratio and Core Capital Ratio remained strong at 25.76% and 23.35%, respectively, well above the minimum regulatory requirements and industry average. This makes the Group one of the strongest financial institutions in capital position. RAM Ratings (RAM) reaffirming the Bank’s AA2/Stable/ P1 rating is premised on its strong foothold in Personal Financing-i (PF) and robust loss-absorbing capacity. The reaffirmation is underpinned by RAM’s view of ready support from the Government if needed, given Bank Rakyat’s status as a Cooperative bank-cum-developmental financial institution. It further acknowledges that the impact of modification losses from moratoria and other assistance offered to customers is manageable given the Bank’s current solid capitalisation. 39 CONTINUOUSLY ELEVATING RISK MANAGEMENT Finally, in our quest for shared prosperity through Islamic social financing in 2021, Bank Rakyat directly distributed over RM11 million in zakat, under objectives defined by the VBI Model. This was contributed to causes in line with the Bank’s VBI principles. For the financial year ending 31 December 2021, Bank Rakyat Group posted a profit before tax and zakat (“PBTZ”) growth of 13.19% to RM1.63 billion. Shareholders’ funds increased by 3.39% or RM0.71 billion to RM21.66 billion compared to RM20.95 billion previously, arising from the Group’s net profit carried forward during the year. A significant step forward under the Sustainability blueprint was the completion of the BR Sustainability Framework and Policy in December 2021. The Bank has also contributed to the Value-based Intermediation Financing and Investment Impact Assessment Framework (VBIAF) Sectoral Guide on Construction and Infrastructure, as the project manager in a joint effort with BNM, Association of Islamic Banks Malaysia (AIBIM) and other financial institutions. The documents were presented by the Bank’s representative in 2nd VBIAF Sectoral Guide Townhall on 17 November 2021. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 ANCHORING GROWTH AND TRANSFORMATION ON GOOD GOVERNANCE The Board regards corporate governance as the framework that underpins the core values for running the business we all believe in, including a commitment to open and transparent communications with stakeholders. Therefore, high regard is paid to corporate governance and internal control in all aspects of our operations, in close adherence to the standards and principles specified by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), to achieve a solid and robust framework within which to develop and expand ever better corporate governance practices, frequently beyond the requirements. Good corporate governance is vital for the Bank’s long-term success and performance. As we grow so must we expand our commitment to governance. In 2021, in line with the BR25 plans towards regionalisation, the Bank’s Board Charter and Board Committees’ Charters were revised to catalyse a high-performance culture and reinforce group governance within the Bank by enhancing the roles and responsibilities of the Board, Senior Management and employees. These charters serve as a general statement of intent and expectation to all stakeholders on how the Bank Rakyat’s Board of Directors discharges its duties and responsibilities to achieve our mission of enhancing economic well-being of Bank Rakyat’s members, customers and nation. The revisions pertain to raising responsibilities, reaping synergies and realising the potential to accelerate the Bank’s transformative journey as Malaysia’s No. 1 Progressive Islamic Cooperative Bank. Further prudent steps were taken by ensuring the active engagement of Risk Management in the War Room Committee (WRC), by appointing the Bank’s Chief Risk Officer (CRO) as an Alternate Chairman to closely monitor payment assistance granted by the Bank. In addition, Stress Testing and Reverse Stress Testing were used as essential risk management tools to evaluate the capital adequacy of the Bank and assess the impact of a range of adverse scenarios with different probabilities and severities. The outcome has indicated that the Bank’s capital position remains strong with continued business momentum and balance sheet growth. Proactive measures were also taken to stay ahead of cyber threats by prioritising technology investment to ensure data protection and payment security are secure and up to standard. The Bank’s Chief Information Security Office (CIS Office) constantly aligns the Bank’s cyber security programme with risk strategy and upgrades capabilities to monitor and respond to threats. This includes elevating cyber security effectiveness and scalability across Information Security, Security Operations Centre as well as Threat Intelligence and Research functions. Activities such as staff awareness and cyber drills are planned, mainly focusing on increasing our employees’ familiarity and alertness on cyber threats and incidents.

  22. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 40 Chairman 's Statement SUPPORTING DEVELOPMENT THROUGH A SUSTAINABLE FOCUS FROM THE TOP For Bank Rakyat to successfully and effectively integrate sustainability across all operations, it was imperative to establish a strong sustainability governance structures, with clear roles and responsibilities for all parties. Towards this end, the Bank Rakyat Sustainability Framework and Policy (BRSFP) was developed in accordance with a regulatory requirements, as well as in reference to external initiatives, standards and guidelines such as Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) Implementation Guide for Value-Based Intermediation (VBI), BNM Climate Change and Principle-based Taxonomy (CCPT) and Task Force for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations. By operationalising the BRSFP, sustainability is embraced as a growth driver for the Bank and emphasis is placed on generating measurable positive and sustainable impact on the economy, community and environment in banking practices, conduct and offerings. Upon the development of BRSFP, a Sustainability Task Force was established with representatives from various business units to ensure clarity of sustainability ownership, roles, responsibilities, targets and reporting structure. We also made strides in the following initiatives under the BR25 Sustainability Blueprint agenda: Chairman's Statement Bank Rakyat Entrepreneur Leadership Series BaktiRAKYAT To ensure that Bank Rakyat can successfully integrate sustainability across its operations and effectively, it is imperative that the Bank initiate the Bank Rakyat Entrepreneur Leadership Series program namely RAKYATpreneur and Bank Rakyat UNIpreneur. The Bank Rakyat Entrepreneur Leadership Series is a philantrophic initiative which uplifts the socio-economic status from underserved background with high potential of growth to progress across the value chain. The Bank provided seed funding, capacity building and coordinated assistance to grow their business. Bank Rakyat also formalised its employees volunteerism initiatives through the BaktiRAKYAT programme. The BaktiRAKYAT Pilot programme was executed in Perak, Sabah, Johor and Pahang state on 11 December 2021. BaktiRAKYAT aims to futher strenghten rapport between the Bank and the surrounding communities, leveraging on the man power of Bank Rakyat’s personnel, with the focus on three key areas of upliftment, namely community, environment and public service. The programme is aligned with the Bank’s Sustainability Framework, namely to develop activities and initiatives that prioritise sustainable economic progress, drive profit, and contribute to the sustainable development of communities. BR Didik Digital BR Didik Digital is a philanthropic initiative to provide underprivileged students with better access to education via online learning and to improve the ecosystem of home schooling with proper tools and data connectivity. The initiative was a collaboration with Yayasan Telekom Malaysia and funded by Bank Rakyat’s Zakat funds. A total of 240 tablets were distributed among primary and secondary schools across Malaysia, and 740 units of SIM cards were provided to primary and secondary schools as well as several MARA Junior Science College (MRSM). KEY STAKEHOLDERS VALUE DELIVERY IN 2021 This year’s theme of The Art of Connection, reflects the Bank’s Commitment to serve all our stakeholders better and provide value added benefits to colour lives with greater wellbeing. For our Internal Stakeholders - Rakyat Care Training programme for 305 of the Bank’s agents. - Launch 410 certified programmes in which 234 personnel were certified. External Stakeholders -  Introduced e-Appointments for Ar-Rahnu services and branch services. -  Moratorium Programme Application on Bank Rakyat’s corporate website. - QR eApplication for Credit Card-i. - Launch of Bank Rakyat’s iRakyat Mobile Banking application. - Quick Response to Entrepreneurs (QR2E), a virtual banking platform for SMEs, micro enterprises and Cooperatives. A Positive Outlook Malaysia’s economic growth is anticipated to accelerate in 2022 after navigating a bumpy and uneven recovery in 2021. All states in Malaysia entered phase four of the National Recovery Plan in 2021, signalling a positive return to activity for many businesses and economic sectors. High vaccination coverage and active vaccine booster rollouts are expected to support consumer and business sentiment amid sizeable fiscal support and accommodative monetary policy. However, the geopolitical risk and ability of the vaccines to guard against any new COVID-19 variants remains a concern to the strength of the recovery. Enhanced risk management, continued cost discipline and implementation of further BR25 plans and initiatives will remain as our priorities to sustain growth. A key focus area would be especially to harness the potential that could be explored in business and operations through digital transformation to create long-term value for shareholders. 41 As the economy gradually recovers, digital reliability and customer centricity will drive Bank Rakyat’s focus as more touchpoints move towards digital channels. This will enable us to reach out to unserved markets as we focus on further improvements and new growth areas. Appreciation and Acknowledgements My sincere appreciation to the Board, Shariah Committee, Management Committee and all our employees who persevered with unwavering spirit despite the uncertainties of the year. Without their determination, we could not have provided the critical financial support that our customers and communities needed during the year. I take this opportunity to acknowledge, on behalf of all Bank Rakyat management and employees in thanking the unsung heroes of this pandemic: the medical frontliners and government agencies who have delivered on the nation’s high vaccination rate; businesses who have taken a lead in lending a helping hand to communities; and citizens who set-up their own support groups and initiatives to help the underserved segments of the society. You have solidified my belief that when the going gets tough, the rakyat gets going. The Board and I also commend our employees who persevered with unwavering spirit despite the uncertainties of the year. Without their determination, we could not have provided the critical financial support that our customers and communities needed during the year. Last but not least, we have worked through another year of ups and downs with our partners, suppliers, customers, and our stakeholders. Thank you for your continued support which has been invaluable to the many successes we have enjoyed to date. Let us together build better connections and a more resilient ecosystem towards a future of assured sustainability.

  23. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 42 Management Discussion and Analysis Management Discussion and Analysis FROM THE TOP Crude Oil Prices Averaged Higher Global Economy Uneven Recovery for Global Growth The global economy continues to recover from the global recession in 2020 and is expected to grow by 5 .5% - 6.0% YoY in 2021 (2020: -3.1% YoY). This is the first time since 1976 that global growth reached above 5.0% YoY, despite the uncertainty caused by COVID-19. The Delta variant, for example, led to another economic lockdown across the world beginning early of the year. As movement restrictions were gradually removed, the economic recovery gained momentum with the progress in COVID-19 vaccinations. As global demand continued to recover, trade activities rebounded by 9.3% YoY (2020: -8.2%YoY), especially for commodities products. For example, Bloomberg Commodity Index (BCOM), which reflects commodity futures price movements, recorded a high average index reading of 92.6 for 2021 (2020: 69.0). The environment of robust demand and rising cost pressures from commodity prices and supply chain disruptions have led to increases in inflation pressure, especially in the second half of the year. Despite the good news, due to unequal access to vaccines, advanced economies (AEs) and emerging market economies (EMEs) have recovered differently, and the lost output has been unevenly distributed. In most AEs, the recovery has occurred across manufacturing and services sectors, as containment measures were eased more quickly as vaccination rates increased. In comparison, many EMEs experienced softer recovery of domestic demand due to tighter containment measures over a longer period, given the relatively slower pace of vaccinations, which caused delays in their economic recoveries until the end of the year. Nevertheless, AEs and EMEs experienced similar challenges, a weaker recovery in labour force participation particularly among vulnerable segments. For 2022, global growth is expected to continue its recovery path, albeit at a slower rate of 4.1% to 4.4% as forecasted by International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank (WB). The improvement in labour market conditions amid the gradual transition towards normalcy is expected to facilitate the recovery. However, downside risk remains caused by development of COVID-19, supply chain disruptions, financial volatility from the potential increase in central banks’ profit rates and geopolitical tension, and rising inflation. Oil prices averaged higher at USD71 per barrel (/b) in 2021 (2020: USD43/b). The demand for crude oil has soared, supported by the economic recovery in major economies such as China and U.S., against the backdrop of pandemic mitigation efforts and the recovery of industrial production. Meanwhile, on the supply side, Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies (OPEC+) had announced in December 2020 that they would keep crude oil prices high by limiting the production in 2021. Only in June 2021, OPEC+ agreed to maintain the existing pace of moderate supply reductions in order to balance an expected upswing in demand. With demand outpacing supply since Q3 2020, this contributed to a rally in crude oil prices with Brent hitting USD86/b at the end-October 2021, the highest rate since 2018. However, the crude oil spot price dropped slightly throughout the end of the year to USD78/b, prompted by the emergence of the Omicron variant, as the market responded to the risk that oil demand could dampen in the near term. Looking forward, the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Omicron variant would increase energy prices and have a material effect on economic activity, thus creating market uncertainties to projections for future energy consumption around the world. The US Energy Information Administration forecasts crude oil to average USD105/b in 2022. Gold Price Fluctuated on Fears of Widespread Infection Throughout 2021, gold price has followed global trends, reflecting growing concerns about the economic consequences of the spread of the Delta variant, yet averaging higher to USD1,800 per ounce in 2021 (2020: USD1,771/oz). During the first quarter of the year, when countries loosened up their COVID-19 related measurement, gold price was trending down and lost around 13% to USD1,683/oz in March, marking the lowest value for 2021. However, as the concern about the Delta variant grew, people have shifted their focus away from risky assets and towards precious gold, thus putting upward pressure on the price again and hitting a value above USD1,900/oz in the second quarter. In the second half of the year, gold price has lost some strength which saw it closed at USD 1,829/oz at the end of the year driven by outflows in gold-backed exchange-traded funds from investors and slowing central banks’ purchases. 43 For 2022, the gold price is anticipated to react to real rates in response to the profit rates at which global central banks tighten monetary policy together with their ability to contain inflation. Historically, gold price and profit rates have had a negative relationship. Rising profit rates usually make bonds and other fixed-income investments more attractive; people will tend to put money into these higher-yielding investments, which will drive down the demand and price for gold. DOMESTIC ECONOMY Malaysia Economy Rebounded in 2021 The Malaysia economy rebounded by 3.1% YoY (2020: -5.6% YoY) in 2021, underpinned by the turnaround in private sector spending. The gradual improvements in income and labour market conditions also supported household spending. Investment activity was also helped by continued capital spending, especially by export-oriented sectors, and policy support remained available for impacted households and businesses. On the supply side, the domestic economy improved unevenly since the pace of recovery varied across sectors. The strong external trade supported the robust performance of the manufacturing sector. In contrast, the services sector remained constrained by weak demand and high-touch activities (i.e., dine-ins and tourism). Meanwhile, activity in the construction sector was hampered by labour and operating capacity restrictions. Additionally, adverse weather conditions and continued foreign worker shortages affected output in the agriculture sector. In the first quarter of 2021, the Malaysian economy registered a smaller GDP growth decline of 0.5% YoY, mainly supported by improvements in domestic demand and exports performance, particularly Electrical and Electronics (E&E) sector. However, the re-imposition of the Movement Control Order (MCO) and the prolonged closure of international borders and interstate travel restrictions have weighed on economic activity. During the second-quarter, the GDP growth rebounded to 16.1% YoY (2Q’20: -17.2% YoY), driven by improved domestic demand and robust exports performance. It was worth to note that this strong growth also came from a low base effect given the big drop of GDP growth in the second quarter of 2020. FROM THE TOP BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD
  24. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 44 Management Discussion and Analysis Despite the previous quarter ’s recovery in growth, the GDP declined by 4.5% YoY during the third quarter of 2021, as economic activity was affected by the re-imposition of strict containment measures under the National Recovery Plan (NRP)1. As economic activity normalised following the easing of containment measures under the NRP, the GDP growth rebounded to 3.6% YoY in the final quarter of 2021. The recovery in the labour market, continued policy support, and strong external demand also provided further lift to growth during the fourth quarter of 2021. 1  NRP replaced the Full Movement Control Order (FMCO) that was originally announced on 28 May 2021. There are four phases of the NRP, of which Phase 1 FROM THE TOP contains the most restrictive containment measures In 2021, another four economic stimulus packages were announced by government, namely PERMAI, PEMERKASA, PEMERKASA Plus and PEMULIH, to boost economic recovery, as the nation’s economy was affected by the movement restriction due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With a budget of RM400 billion (11MP: RM248.5bil), the Prime Minister announced the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP) on 27 September 2021 to create a prosperous, inclusive, and sustainable Keluarga Malaysia. In an effort to exit the COVID-19 pandemic and transition into the endemic phase, the government tabled the National Budget 2022 on 29 October 2021 with the biggest allocation of RM332.1 billion aimed at driving economic recovery catalysing national development more inclusively and sustainably. The Budget is expected to be a catalyst for implementing the 12MP, to drive economic growth more inclusively and sustainably in the medium term, based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and Shared Prosperity Vision 2030 (WKB 2030). As for 2022, BNM expects a GDP growth of 5.3% - 6.3% YoY, lower than the Ministry of Finance (MOF)’s official forecast of 5.5% - 6.5% YoY. At the same time, the IMF and World Bank have forecasted Malaysia’s economy to grow by 5.75% and 5.8% YoY, respectively. The growth recovery will be driven by continued expansion in external demand, full upliftment of containment measures, reopening of international borders, and further improvement in labour market conditions. Additionally, the implementation of new and continued investment projects and targeted policy measures will give more support to economic activity and aggregate demand. Moderate Recovery in Labour Market Conditions The conditions in the labour market improved moderately in 2021, following significant disruptions in 2020. The labour market was in recovery in the first five months of the year, in line with the pick-up in economic activity. However, the recovery momentum slowed due to the implementation of NRP in June 2021. Overall conditions, however, remained subdued during the year, as the unemployment rate remained elevated at 4.6% YoY (2020: 4.5% YoY), while aggregate nominal wages growth in the private sector was modest at 0.4% YoY (2020: -2.4% YoY), amid an uneven recovery across labour market segments. Supportive measures continued to stay in place to enable businesses and households to withstand the impact of these shocks, support incomes, and mitigate displacements in the labour market. These comprise in large part a continuation of measures put in place in 2020, including Bantuan Prihatin Rakyat, the Targeted Repayment Assistance (TRA), and the Wage Subsidy Programme. Labour market conditions showed initial signs of recovery with a total of 558,633 people were employed through the Jamin Kerja Keluarga Malaysia initiative, in line with the pick-up in economic activity, despite the temporary weakness caused by the imposition of MCO 2.0. However, data from SOCSO indicated that jobless claims remained elevated during the third quarter of 2021 (15,753 persons; 2Q21: 14,311) following restructuring exercises by firms in the E&E and primary-related manufacturing sectors. The labour market resumed its recovery trajectory in the fourth quarter of 2021, driven by a stronger recovery in employment and encouraging labour force expansion. Moving into 2022, the labour market conditions are expected to improve gradually as economic activity picks up, with the unemployment rate expected to ease further to around 4.0%. Targeted measures remain to boost labour demand, make it easier for workers to re-skill and up-skill, and enable persons who have been out of work due to the impact of pandemic to re-enter the labour force. A sustained recovery in employment and income is expected to drive an improvement in household spending. Management Discussion and Analysis Headline Inflation was Higher in 2021 Headline inflation in 2021 increased to 2.5% YoY (2020: -1.2% YoY), reflecting mainly higher fuel inflation. Global supplyside disruptions also led to upward price pressures, though the impact on consumer prices was relatively contained as firms absorbed the higher cost. The core inflation remained subdued at 0.7% YoY in 2021 (2020: 1.1%YoY), reflecting the spare capacity in the economy amid a moderate recovery in the labour market. After turning positive to 3.4% YoY in the second quarter of 2021, mainly due to low fuel inflation and electricity tariff rebate, the headline inflation moderated to 2.2% YoY during the third quarter (2Q21: 4.1% YoY), reflecting the dissipating base effect from fuel prices, as well as the implementation of a three-month electricity bill discount, effective July 2021. The headline inflation increased to 3.2% during the fourth quarter of 2021 following the lapse effect of the three-month electricity bill discount. Moving into 2022, the headline inflation is projected to average between 2.2% to 3.2%, while core inflation is expected to be between 2.0% to 3.0% due to stronger demand conditions amid lingering cost pressures. While high input costs are projected to exert some pressure on selected fresh food prices, price controls will partly mitigate these pressures. However, the overall inflation outlook remains susceptible to upside risks, particularly cost-push factors. These include a more persistent uptrend in input costs due to higher commodity prices and and prolonged disruptions to global supply chains, geopolitical tensions, and lockdowns in China. FBMKLCI Ended Lower in 2021 The local stock market has been on a roller-coaster ride, impacted by external and domestic developments, including lengthy nation lockdowns, high COVID-19 infection rates, and travel restrictions. To recap, FBMKLCI hit a high of 1,639.83 points on 10 March, spurred by market liquidity and optimism in the economic recovery due to lower average daily domestic cases of COVID-19. The index then plunged to the lowest level in 2021 of 1,489.80 points on 6 August after Malaysia saw a record high of more than 20,000 new COVID-19 infections that day, the most since the pandemic struck the country in February 2020. While Budget 2022 may have the largest allocation for expenditure on record for the country, it has failed to excite the market. This could be due to a new tax dubbed “Cukai Makmur” proposed in Budget 2022, coupled with the absence of significant infrastructure projects in the said budget. 45 The emergence of the Omicron variant in November and the hawkish signals by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) since September induced market jitters, which were exacerbated by the possibility of an interest rate hike and a faster tapering of the Fed’s bond-buying programme. The spectre of a rate increase, which could have led to an outflow from the local bourse, resulted in the FBMKLCI ending at 1,488.88 points on 12 December 2021. Overall, FBMKLCI declined by -3.7% YoY to end at 1,567.5 points (2020: 3.5% YoY, 1,627.2 points). The equity market will benefit from the broad economic recovery despite several major central banks have begun to normalise their extremely loose monetary policies. However, the downside risks linger and continue on the new COVID-19 variants and a potential delay in economic recovery. Recovery After 2020’s Record High of Fund Outflow On the equity fund flow, the announcements on Cukai Makmur and the lifting of the stamp duty cap would affect expectations on the stock market in 2022. In addition, other issues seen in 2021 could spill over into 2022, causing some possible negative impacts such as the recent discovery of the Omicron variant, the possibility of lockdowns and prolonged inflation due to supply tightness. Bursa Malaysia recorded an improvement of 86.3% YoY of net foreign outflow of RM3.4 billion, a recovery compared to 2020 data when net foreign outflow hit a record high of RM24.8 billion with -123.4% YoY. Continued Volatility for Ringgit Ringgit started 2021 strongly at RM4.02 against the US dollar, driven by optimism over the global growth recovery amid the roll-out of vaccination programmes. However, the local currency has taken a hit from rising domestic COVID-19 cases and containment measures, despite surging global commodity price, and an improving global economic outlook. Nonetheless, the downside risks from the extension to the MCO 3.0 starting from mid-May 2021 continued to dampen investors’ risk appetite as the Ringgit depreciated. This was further intensified by shifting expectations surrounding the timeline of the Fed’s tapering of its asset purchase programme and the possible interest rate hikes. For 2021, the Malaysian Ringgit depreciated by 3.6% to RM4.17 YoY (2020: -1% YoY, RM4.12). The outlook for the Ringgit in 2022 continues to be challenged by a combination of external and internal factors that will have a significant impact on its movement. On the global front, factors influencing the Ringgit include the hawkish tone of the global central banks and monetary policies, the emergence of the Omicron variant and the efficacy of the vaccines, oil price movement, geopolitical and political issues, the speed of the economic recovery, as well as the implementation of key measures in Budget 2022 and 12MP.

  25. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD Management Discussion and Analysis BANKING SECTOR The Banking Industry has Shown Continued Resiliency Malaysian banks continued to display resilience in 2021 and improvement compared to the previous year despite persistent economic headwinds such as prolonged movement restrictions , extended financing moratoriums, and payment assistance. Driven by positive sentiments among businesses and consumers following the reopening of the economy in the third quarter of the year, the financial performance of the local banks has shown strong growth. FROM THE TOP Recovery in Earnings in a Challenging Environment The banking sector continued to face uncertainties in 2021 due to the resurgence of COVID-19 and the return of movement restrictions. The build-up of provisions in 2020 which enabled the banks to have moderate provision growth to 14.0% (2020: 40.3%), coupled with lower modification losses due to the transition to more targeted payment assistance programmes, supported the sector’s earnings in 2021. OPR Remained at 1.75% since July 2020 The central bank kept the OPR unchanged to foster enabling conditions to support economic recovery. Nevertheless, BNM noted that the downside risks remain, amid ongoing uncertainties surrounding the pandemic, both globally and domestically. A policy rate normalisation that could prevent risks, such as persistently high inflation or a further rise in household indebtedness, are likely to occur after mid-2022. Targeted Payment Assistance Continues Banks continued to offer payment relief assistance after the auto-moratorium ended in September 2021, but the assistance provided then was more focused. This includes a targeted extension of the moratorium as well as offering payment flexibility to help customers based on their financial needs and circumstances. In addition, the Malaysian banking industry and Agensi Kaunseling dan Pengurusan Kredit (AKPK), a BNM agency, announced the Financial Management and Resilience Programme (URUS) in October 2021, which targets to help B50 household customers who need further financial assistance due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The URUS which was initially set to run for a total of three months until 31 January 2022, had been extended to 31 July 2022 due to flood impact on households and businesses. Summary of FY2021 Development Outputs – The programme had been expected to have minimal impact on the bank’s earnings as it offers help to B50 on a targeted basis compared to the blanket moratorium in 2020. Asset Quality Improved The industry’s gross impaired financings (GIL) ratio, which had been increasing from May 2021 at 1.59% to 1.67% in July and August 2021 had subsequently declined to 1.44% in December 2021 (Dec’ 2020: 1.56%) possibly due to the effects of the ongoing financings moratorium. Notwithstanding, asset quality is anticipated to deteriorate when the payment assistance programmes are gradually unwound in 2022. Overall household impairments continued to be driven by residential property financings, with its outstanding financing balances comprising 29% of the total financing in the banking industry. Financing Growth Accelerated Financing growth for the banking industry continued to gain momentum, accelerating to 4.5% YoY in 2021 (2020: 3.4% YoY). The household sector, however, grew at a slower rate of 4.3% YoY in 2021 (2020: 5.0% YoY), attributable to moderate growth in the residential segment (2021: 6.8% YoY vs 2020: 7.1% YoY) and passenger car segment (2021: 1.2% YoY vs 2020: 5.6% YoY). Meanwhile, non-household financings registered a higher growth of 4.9% YoY in 2021 (2020: 1.0% YoY) supported by healthy growth in the working capital segment (2021: 7.1% YoY vs 2020: 0.5% YoY).

CASA, which has maintained its double-digit growth since March 2020 (10.3% YoY), except in October 2021 (9.4% YoY), continued to moderate to 10.9% YoY in 2021 (2020: 19.3% YoY) as depositors may have spent their cash during the prolonged lockdown. Nonetheless, the proportion of CASA to the total deposits increased to 31.6% in 2021 (2020: 30.3%), with total funds placed with Islamic banks representing 31.4% of the total banking sector deposits (2020: 31.0%). 47 Management Discussion and Analysis FROM THE TOP 46 Balance (’billion) NOA >RM17.0 >3,400.000 >RM0.3 >500,000 >RM2.2 >7,000 Cooperative >RM1.0 >18,000 SME Individuals >RM18.9 billion NOA: >4,400,000 >RM63.4 billion NOA: >4,455,000 Businesses >RM44.5 billion NOA: >55,000 Training, Outreach and Advisory services conducted 828 Participants 1,015 Training Participants conducted with businesses Cooperatives Microentrepreneurs Financial literacy conducted for individuals >230,000 Youth Youth Financial Access Point Training and advisory services conducted Access Points Agent Bank Agent Bank’s Transaction Volumes (RM) TOTAL Of Which: URBAN Of Which: RURAL 1,494 1,383 111 299 249 50 >7,100,000 >6,500,000 >600,000 * Classification of Rural are based on Agent Banking Policy Document’s unserved and undeserved mukim listing.

  26. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 48 Management Discussion and Analysis FULFILLING OUR INSTITUTIONAL MANDATE Financing Approved to Businesses Deposits Mobilisation In tandem with the nation ’s focus on business resilience, social well-being and economic stability; Bank Rakyat, as a Development Financial Institution (DFI) is committed to deliver our counter-cyclical role to whether the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis and provide full support in this recovery period. Bank Rakyat is mandated to facilitate the development of Cooperatives and SMEs including micro-entrepreneurs by extending financing and advisory services for their businesses to expand and thrive. As of December 2021, total financing of more than RM1.3 billion was approved to over 2,900 micro-entrepreneurs, SMEs and Cooperatives of which more than RM44.0 million was granted to new businesses (businesses operating for less than three years). The Bank has always accentuated the promotion of a saving culture amongst our customers and potential customers by way of offering attractive profit rates for our deposit products. As a result, in FY2021, total deposits mobilised exceeded RM63.4 billion, of which more than RM18.9 billion was from individual customers. Out of this amount, the deposits mobilised from targeted individuals’ segments, comprising B40 and Youth (below the age of 18), are in the balances of beyond RM17.0 billion and RM330.0 million, respectively. It is imperative for us to have a comprehensive measurement framework in effectively and efficiently discharging our mandate of positively impacting the development of various economic sectors and the well-being of the entrepreneur community. In this context, the Performance Measurement Framework (PMF) introduced by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) incorporates additionalities as part of the Bank’s business operations with the intention to promote greater development outcomes. FROM THE TOP Management Discussion and Analysis The Bank has steadfastly delivered on these institutional goals in FY2021 with an intensified focus on providing support to underserved Cooperatives and Micro, Small Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to help them build resilience within a disruptive economic environment. This continuous focus on Cooperatives and MSMEs comes following the government’s launch of the National Entrepreneurship Policy 2030 (DKN2030), set out by the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (KUSKOP), under which Bank Rakyat acts as its agency. DKN2030 aims for the turnover of Cooperatives to grow to RM60.0 billion by 2030 from RM40.3 billion in 2018, and to boost MSMEs contribution to the economy to 50% from 37.4% during the same period. Currently positioned as the country’s largest DFI and the second-largest Islamic financier1 (IFI), Bank Rakyat plans to further accelerate financing to Cooperatives and MSMEs to at least RM7.0 billion by the end-2025 as outlined in the Bank Rakyat 2025’s (BR25) SMEC Business Blueprint. As a continuation of the former BRCares, a new financing programme was introduced in May 2021 called BRFlex-i to facilitate recovery for affected micro-entrepreneurs, SMEs and Cooperatives and help them withstand the post-COVID-19 pandemic crisis. With BRFlex-i, customers are provided a moratorium of payments for the first nine months, minimal documentation requirements for financing applications, cost savings for financing documentation, competitive financing rates, and no collateral requirement. The BRFlex-i financing package offers a maximum financing limit of up to RM50,000 to micro-entrepreneurs; and RM1.0 million to eligible SMEs and Cooperatives. A total amount exceeding RM136.0 million has been approved as of December 2021. Meanwhile, a total deposits balance of more than RM44.5 billion were mobilised from businesses of which over RM2.2 billion was derived from Cooperatives and an excess of RM1.0 billion was from SMEs. In 2021, BNM had announced the Targeted Relief and Recovery Facility (TRRF) to provide relief and support recovery for eligible micro-entrepreneurs and SMEs in the services sector. As of December 2021, around RM141.8 million was approved under this financing programme. Bank Rakyat also offered financing assistance to sports industry entrepreneurs affected by the COVID-19 pandemic through Skim Pembiayaan Industri Sukan (SPIS). The SPIS facility is a collaborative initiative by the Ministry of Youth and Sports and KUSKOP of which over RM8.0 million was approved as of December 2021. Financing Approved to Individuals Nuri Club Member Nuri account holders also have the opportunity to become a Nuri Club member and participate in various programmes organised by the Club as follows: •Nuri Club had conducted a Nuri Savings Contest themed Guess and Win Contest and Savings Quiz Contest in conjunction with World Savings Day in October 2021; •Nuri Club also conducted a My 1st Bank Programme whereby newborns received savings money through their Savings-i account in conjunction with the 67th Anniversary of the Bank in September 2021; and •Nuri Teenpreneurship Ramadhan Bazaar was a programme held exposing students to entrepreneurial experiences. Students at selected high schools were given funds by the Bank to open their own stalls to sell foods and beverages for breaking fast. Financial Access Points Financing Approved for Government-Led Initiatives Training, Outreach and Advisory Services Conducted Throughout 2021, the Bank has conducted various capacity-building programmes for Cooperatives and entrepreneurs which attracted participation from 1,015 Cooperatives and 828 entrepreneurs. Further details of this initiative are elaborated in Developing the Cooperative Sector section. Although Bank Rakyat embraces digital technologies, the Bank constantly reviews and improves our physical channel footprints for better community outreach, as well as increased access to financial services, particularly in rural areas. The classification of rural areas is based on BNM Agent Banking Policy Document’s Unserved and Underserved Mukim listing. Unserved refers to mukims with no access points at all, while underserved categorises mukims with less than five access points in the vicinity. Further details are elaborated in the Financial Inclusivity section. Client Resilience and Positive Spillover into the Economy Since before 2018, SME and Cooperative customers who have been granted financing by the Bank has shown promising incremental values in their sales turnover, as well as new jobs created along with the number of jobs sustained. 1  Based on December 2020 published data of DFI and IFI’s annual report in terms of Income, Profit Before Tax and Zakat (PBTZ), Total Financing and Total Deposit. As a DFI, Bank Rakyat strives to serve all segments of society including individuals. For FY2021, a total financing amount of more than RM17.8 billion was approved to targeted individuals comprising Bank Rakyat’s Members, B40 (household income of below RM4,850 monthly) and affordable housing financing applicants (market value less than RM300,000). The approved financing amounts were more than RM3.8 billion, RM10.9 billion and RM0.6 billion respectively. Financial Literacy Conducted for Individuals More than 230,000 youths have been given and exposed to financial literacy learnings by the Bank in 2021 through a number of programmes and initiatives such as: Nuri Savings-i Account The first step in managing children’s wealth should be to inculcate a savings culture from an early age. Nuri Savings-i Account is a great platform to cultivate a savings culture among children. They can start saving with a minimum deposit of RM10, and it is open to all children aged 12 years and below. 49 In 2020, the total increase of sales turnover recorded was in the excess of RM140.0 million for the Bank’s SME customers, and RM34.0 million for the Bank’s Cooperative customers. Over 2,100 jobs have also been manageably sustained by the SMEs, and more than 170 new jobs were created in the same year. A positive outcome was also recorded by the Cooperatives segment where around 1,100 jobs were sustained with addition of over 50 new jobs during the year. In terms of productivity value (i.e. total sales turnover over the number of employees), the average of around RM1.1 million per SMEs and RM0.6 million per Cooperatives have been indicated respectively.

Supporting the Cooperative Ecosystem Contributing Zakat and CSR Funds for the Needy The Bank provides annual support to the Cooperative ecosystem and development through contributions made to Suruhanjaya Koperasi Malaysia (SKM) in the Cooperative Education Trust Fund (CETF) and Cooperative Development Provident Fund (CDPF). The total contributions made are based on 2% and 1% of the Bank’s annual PBTZ, respectively. This exceeded RM48.0 million in FY2021. Throughout the year under review, the Bank has been persistently contributing back to the community and society by contributing Zakat and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds totalling over RM12.5 million to more than 88,000 recipients. The Bank’s zakat fund contributions have been distributed in the form of entrepreneur support, medical treatment aid, student assistance, education programmes, shelter initiatives and disaster aid. Further details on the Bank’s other initiatives to support the Cooperative ecosystem are deliberated in developing the Cooperative Sector section. Distributing Dividends As a Cooperative, the Bank has always been prioritising our members and their economic well-being. Apart from the financial assistance in the form of financing and deposit products to suit the financial needs of our members, the Bank provides our members with an attractive dividend pay-out annually. In FY2021, the Bank have made a dividend payment in a total of more than RM370.0 million which has benefitted over 800,000 of our members, comprising both individuals and Cooperatives. Social Finance Entrepreneur support Poor Aid Student Assistance Education Program Shelter Initiatives Disaster Aid The programmes were specially designed to guide asnaf entrepreneurs who received zakat assistance from Bank Rakyat to identify their strengths and weaknesses through competency workshops, advisory services, network building, as well as followup monitoring by the Bank’s selected partners namely, INSKEN and ten local public and private universities. The main goal of both programmes is to help asnaf entrepreneurs improve their competencies to identify and seize opportunities to remain relevant in the market. As a spillover, these programmes are expected to nurture the entrepreneurs to become Bank Rakyat’s future MSME customers. Through RAKYATpreneur Pilot, RAKYATpreneur 2.0 and UNIpreneur Pilot, we have assisted 220 asnaf micro entrepreneurs and 100 asnaf student entrepreneurs during the year. In terms of profile, the selected entrepreneurs were from all states across Malaysia, including Sabah and Sarawak, with diverse businesses ranging from segments such as F&B, clothing and apparels, handicraft, workshop, agriculture, tailoring, hair dressing, and a few others. A promising number of these entrepreneurs have recorded an increase of 10% to 30% in their sales turnover for the first three months after completing the capacity building sessions. In addition, the total amount exceeding RM286.0 million approved for BRFlex-i, BNM TRRF and SPIS financing programmes in FY2021 will benefit the business survivability of more than 750 SMEs, 1,390 micro entrepreneurs and 40 Cooperatives nationwide in the coming years. Rakyatpreneur and UNIpreneur were philanthropic initiatives established by the Bank in FY2021, with the aim of elevating the potential of asnaf micro and asnaf student entrepreneurs to progress across their business value chains. 51 Policy Advice by DFIs Taken Up by Government and Impact from the Policy Advice In FY2021, Bank Rakyat was appointed as a Project Manager to lead the development of Sectoral Guide for Construction and Infrastructure, the initiative under BNM’s Value-based Intermediation Financing and Investment Impact Assessment Framework (VBIAF). The Sectoral Guide provides a comprehensive guidance for implementing impact-based assessment for the particular sector. It also provides relevant sustainability metrics or indicators for a more holistic approach to the classification of economic activities. Going further, Bank Rakyat is embarking into Environmental and Social Financing, in line with the Sustainability Framework and Climate Change Principle-based Taxonomy which will lead to more environmentally friendly and ecologically responsible decisions.

Agent Banking is an initiative introduced by BNM to ensure that access to basic banking facilities can be enjoyed throughout Malaysia, even in areas without banking facilities. Bank Rakyat’s Agent Banking service has been established since July 2015 and is known as Rakyat C.A.R.E. Rakyat C.A.R.E offers basic banking facilities such as savings, cash withdrawals, intrabank fund transfer, bill payment and financing payment (Bank Rakyat) through appointed agents. With the availability of Rakyat C.A.R.E., customers enjoy the privilege of accessing banking services nearer to their localities, and this greatly benefits the unserved and underserved community segments.

SME and Cooperative Business Centres (SMEC) Several win-win benefits are unleashed by Rakyat C.A.R.E. for the unserved and underserved communities, easier access to banking services opens up more opportunities. For the Bank, appointing agents is a cheaper alternative compared to other delivery channels (i.e. branch and self-service terminal).

For appointed agents, this strategy offers additional income opportunities through collection of transaction fees. In FY2021, the Rakyat C.A.R.E. network reported a total of 299 active agent banking channels nationwide with the total transaction value recorded amounting to more than RM7.1 million.

Paperless Credit Card-i Processing for iRakyat In December 2021, we enhanced the iRakyat mobile application with functionalities to facilitate an end-to-end paperless e-application including processing for credit cards. Credit card processing is just the tip of the iceberg for the Bank’s digital customer experience initiative. Moving forward, we have an aspiration to further customer process digitalisation to include CASA on-boarding. This will ultimately result in cost-saving by the reduction of operational expenditure (OPEX), while enhancing customer experiences digitally. Aside from the regular retail banking functionalities, the application also supports Lembaga Tabung Haji and DuitNow transactions. This initiative is well aligned with the government’s intention to encourage digital spending and cashless transactions. Since its inception, the Bank has gained traction of more than 94,000 new users for the iRakyat mobile application. Bank Rakyat Quick Also in December 2021, Bank Rakyat introduced a new alternative channel for retail customers to access the Bank’s products - “Bank Rakyat Quick” or “BRICK” for short. With BRICK, customers can obtain product information via a QR scan and proceed with product applications. This technology will enables Bank Rakyat to generate and capture qualified leads from the market. Within just one month of launching, BRICK has captured almost 500 applications and continues to grow. The Bank successfully rolled out the new iRakyat mobile application in September 2021 to offer customers the ability to self-serve and manage their product holdings. DEVELOPING THE COOPERATIVE SECTOR The Bank plays a significant role in developing the Cooperative sector as we share the government’s aspiration of making the Cooperative sector a vital contributor to economic growth.

  30. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD Management Discussion and Analysis Moving forward , focus has been intensified to steer towards a progressive and sustainable Cooperative movement in alignment with the government’s Pelan Transformasi Koperasi Malaysia 2021 – 2025 (TransKoM). Bank Rakyat will continue to facilitate the development of the Cooperative sector in strengthening the Cooperative movement and achieving the potential of the Cooperative sector as a national economic driver. BANK RAKYAT’S REVIEW OF FY2021 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE FROM THE TOP Despite the continued economic uncertainty caused by prolonged COVID-19 challenges, the Group recorded a profit before tax and zakat (“PBTZ”) of RM1.63 billion for FY2021 against RM1.44 billion in FY2020. Net profit at RM1.86 billion was 34.78% higher from the RM1.38 billion recorded the previous year. This commendable performance was achieved through strong fundamentals and a focus on core activities, while the net profit was buoyed by lower deferred tax liabilities. The encouraging growth was mainly driven by the Group’s financing and investment activities, coupled by improved net operating income, which increased 3.2% to RM3.52 billion from RM3.41 billion previously, due to lower funding costs as a result of effective asset liability management and the low overnight policy rate. This achievement was supported by Current Accounts-i and Savings Accounts-i (CASA) which were higher at RM9.23 billion from RM8.28 billion previously. Lower impairment provision in the year, in line with industry trends, also boosted the Group’s performance. Effective cost management activities sustained a healthy cost to income ratio at below 40.0%, lower than industry average of 47.0%. As a result, the Group continued to be the most profitable Cooperative Bank, as well as the second largest Islamic financial institution in Malaysia. Despite the uncertainties during the year, total assets rose by 3% or RM3.31 billion to RM115.06 billion from RM111.75 billion as at the end of FY2020, driven by 1.6% growth in financing balance and 7% solid growth in treasury assets through steadfast commitment to set strategic initiatives throughout the year. Total deposits for the year rose 1.1% to RM86.52 billion in 2021, compared to RM85.58 billion previously, while Return On Assets improved to 1.4% in line with the industry trend. In realising its mandate to strengthen the economic wellbeing of its members and customers, the Group announced 15% dividends with an estimated pay out of RM429.50 million to 827,066 members for the year ended 31 December 2021. 57 Management Discussion and Analysis This marked a record 23 years of double-digit dividends provided to its members. Apart from that, the Group continued to contribute 2% of its PBTZ amounting RM32.30 million to the Cooperative Education Trust Fund and 1% or RM16.15 million to the Cooperative Development Provident Fund. The total contribution to these cooperative funds for the year 2021 amounted to RM48.45 million. Through the good dividends and annual commitment to support the Cooperative ecosystem, Bank Rakyat hopes to help reduce the financial burden faced by members in weathering the COVID-19 pandemic. As at 31 December 2021, Bank Rakyat had a total market capitalisation of RM21 billion. Risk-Weighted Capital Ratio and Core Capital Ratio after the proposed final dividend remained strong at 25.76% and 23.35% respectively, well above the minimum regulatory requirements and industry average. This makes the Group one of the strongest financial institutions in terms of capital position. CHANNEL MANAGEMENT Launching of iRakyat Mobile Banking The unprecedented challenges posed by COVID-19 have significantly impacted customer behaviour notably towards the shift to digital channels. In response to this, we have facilitated e-Banking and e-Payment requisites for our customers with the launch of our mobile banking application on 30 September 2021. These additional physical channels not only improves access to banking and Ar-Rahnu services, but also maintain a balanced distribution of our infrastructure capital in supporting the banking needs by the underserved areas. Ar-Rahnu On Wheel (ARROW) in Sabah The Bank’s mobile ARROW units have proven to be efficient and effective as an alternate channel to provide our customers’ accessibility to more affordable financial services without the need to invest in traditional brick-and-mortar branches. Moving forward, our team will strive to provide further improvement and enhancement towards the application features to meet our consumers’ digital lifestyles and focus on customer security with adoption towards advanced and extensive mobile banking functionalities. In December 2021, we successfully deployed our third ARROW in Sandakan, Sabah which coincided with the national aspiration of the PEMULIH recovery plan package announced earlier in the same year. The Government had allocated RM18 million for domestic financial institutions, including Bank Rakyat, to provide about 30 mobile units in totality covering almost 250 mukims in the rural and remote areas of Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak under the PEMULIH initiative.With proactive measures taken to ensure minimised disruptions during the pandemic, ARROW Sabah provided the local community in Sandakan (including Mukims of Kuamut, Labuk, Sukau and Sekon) a greater financial accessibility. Growing Our Physical Network in Sarawak Expanding Customer Outreach Through Rakyat X’Lite Improving banking access to the community, we focused on supporting the financial inclusion agenda to best serve all segments of customers with the latest establishment of Rakyat Xcess (Combo) in Sebuyau and Serian, Sarawak on 9 August 2021 and 16 August 2021 respectively. An alternative delivery channel was pioneered with the commencement of Rakyat X’Lite in LRT Bank Rakyat-Bangsar Station on 13 December 2021. With an attractive and intuitive or User Interface User Experience, the Bank aims to accommodate an ideal customer experience and satisfaction through quality, convenience, and personalisation. Rakyat Xcess (Combo) Sebuyau has been recognised as the first financial institution that provides the local community with access to safe and affordable branch banking and ArRahnu experience in the district. Meanwhile, our physical channel in Serian has been transformed and upgraded to provide customers in the locality with an immediate access to Ar-Rahnu services, in addition to existing banking services. Within a confined space area available for Bank Rakyat at the concourse level of the LRT Station, our Rakyat X’Lite provides two teller counters, an Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) and a Cash Deposit Machine (CDM). This concept of implementing assisted counter services outside of a traditional branch and leveraging cash transactions on the self-service terminals is the first of its kind throughout the Bank Rakyat physical channel network. RAM RATINGS Reaffirmed AA2 with Stable Outlook RAM Ratings has reaffirmed Bank Rakyat’s AA2/Stable/P1 financial institution ratings (FIRs). Ratings of the Bank’s sukuk issued through its funding conduits have also been reaffirmed as shown below: Bank Rakyat’s Sukuk Ratings Imtiaz Sukuk II Berhad RM10 billion Sukuk Wakalah Programme (2020/2050) AA2(s)/Stable RM9 billion Islamic Medium Term Notes Programme (2013/2023) AA2(s)/Stable Mumtaz Rakyat Sukuk Berhad RM5 billion Subordinated Sukuk Murabahah Programme (2016/2036) AA3(s)/Stable The reaffirmation is premised on Bank Rakyat’s strong foothold in Personal Financing-i (PF) and its robust loss absorption capacity. The Bank boasts the largest share of the Malaysian market for PF, which is mostly extended to civil servants with higher job security. RAM acknowledged that the impact of modification losses from moratoria and other forms of assistance offered to customers is manageable given its current solid capitalisation, afforded by a Basel I tier-1 capital ratio of 22.2% as at end-June 2021. The Bank’s ample loss absorption buffers will cushion further potential impairments amplified by the gradual expiration of pandemic-related relief measures. FROM THE TOP 56

Personal Financing-i Personal Financing-i continues to be the central component of the Bank’s retail banking business. The portfolio increased 1.0% in FY2020, due to our effort to control its growth at under 1% a year as we are taking steps to diversify into other areas.

The growth has been achieved despite a slower property market due to measures introduced by; 1.

Pawn Broking-i An alternative to conventional pawn broking, Pawn Broking-i (Islamic pawnbroking or Ar-Rahnu) provides instant and easy cash of up to RM350,000 based on Shariah principles. This has been one of our most successful products since its introduction in 1993. This service is provided at 140 branches and 48 Ar-Rahnu X’Change outlets that operate from Monday to Saturday (ARX).

Consistent with the industry’s trend, Bank Rakyat Credit Card-i usage started to recover in the second half of the year under the National Recovery Plan, where it reached the highest usage amount in December 2021 of RM55.02 million. The healthy growth was contributed by the continuous promotions and programs implemented throughout the year as follows: A.8%.GOV.MY PROGRAM Affordable source of financing remains the ultimate demand from consumers whilst the economy progress towards recovery from COVID-19 pandemic. As an institution that is sensitive towards consumers demand, a new financing program was launched on 20 August 2021 targeted at existing and new Credit Card-i cardholders from the government and GLC sectors. The 8%.GOV.MY program offers profit rate as low as 8% per annum (or 0.66% monthly) on all retail outstanding balances arising from payments of goods and services. The low profit rate will be applicable for the next three years for cardholders who meets the eligibility criteria. B. “CASH NOW” CAMPAIGN This initiative was re-introduced in year 2021 where the Bank only charged a profit rate of 6% per annum (as compared to 18% per annum) for cash withdrawals performed at Bank Rakyat counters, ATMs and via call-in to our Customer Service.

Bank Rakyat cardholders who spent at Bank Rakyat’s essential needs merchants. As purchasing habit during the pandemic shifted from cash to non-cash, this campaign focused and encouraged our customers to opt for cashless payment by offering chances to win cash prizes worth of RM500 with a minimal purchase of RM30. FROM THE TOP In view of the Bank’s overall gross impaired financing (GIF) ratio, strong GIF coverage of above 150% provides further comfort to the increase of GIF to 2.2% as at end-June 2021 (end-December 2019: 1.9%) which was primarily driven by the PF portfolio’s weaker GIF ratio of 1.2% (end-December 2019: 0.6%). Due to the current uncertain economic climate caused by COVID-19 pandemic, job losses or income cuts suffered by the customers had led to higher defaults from its non-Angkasa segment under PF portfolio. 4.Periodic customer retention program being performed by telemarketing team and branches to mitigate attrition rate. Bank Rakyat (RM mil) The rating reaffirmation also incorporates the view of ready support from the Government if needed, given Bank Rakyat’s status as a Cooperative-cum-developmental financial institution. 59 Management Discussion and Analysis Industry (RM mil) 58

The division is tasked to ensure good management, engagement and service delivery across the end-to-end process of providing business financing to these customers.

TREASURY Performance Review 2021 saw countries across the globe were aiming to win at the vaccination race as its population eager to move forward pass the pandemic amid the rise of new variants. Economic activities began rebounding as movement restrictions were gradually uplifted causing commodity prices gain major traction. Malaysia’s pre-existing political pressures remained a threat of uncertainty in the local capital market, as we faced the spillover effect of the robust global economic recovery resulting to pressures in global supply chain as the pandemic prompted changes in consumption trends, heightened demand for goods and shortage of labor. Local economic data were mostly static with inflationary pressure deemed contained relative to other parts of the world while unemployment rate relatively stagnant at 4.5% although underemployment rate remained elevated caused by job mismatches due to the continued economic uncertainty during the year. This led BNM into staying dovish on its OPR stance throughout 2021 sending local’s bond market to be unwavered for the most part of the year while foreign investors adding duration risk to their portfolio recalibration exercise. Treasury continue to face disparity in its fixed rate investment yield replenishment although cushioned by prudent management of funding composition. Treasury sales strongly supported the division by boosting the division’s fee based income after showing striking increase in foreign exchange business volume taking cue on the growing money supply within the financial system. 61 Moving Forward Strong cautious mode would remain on the play until uncertainty recedes as all eyes were on the timing for first policy tightening by the major economies post steadier rebound in economic data while the world is now talking about endemic. Most major countries withdraw their concern on the emerging of new variants amid high inoculated population exhibiting less yearning for more lockdowns. Subsequently, recovery is expected to come into sight across all sectors mainly driven by accelerating private consumption. Local debt supply is expected to continue to dilate year on year to fund the proposed budget, unveiled to be at 20.3% of GDP while major corporations are sustaining healthy CAPEX and working capital requirement. Treasury will emphasis the effort in identifying high yielding remittance businesses to fully employ its remittance resources as well as new deposit streams while providing comprehensive Treasury solutions to new and existing clienteles. Effective allocation of the Bank’s assets and liabilities will be a continuous effort as the Treasury remain sensible in its sukuk replenishment despite facing stretchy valuation risk. Moving ahead, the world expects to sustain endemic watchfully considering uncertainty now relies upon a well anchored inflation expectation amid imbalance supply-demand while investors await for monetary policy in major economies responds.

Nuri Nutrisi Programme FROM THE TOP Bank Rakyat’s Nuri Nutrisi programme has been voted the winner of a number of CSR awards to date due to its holistic impact and sustainable structure. The programme is recognised for its multifold benefits in health, education and welfare of students. According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia, Malaysia has succeeded in reducing its incidence of poverty from 5.5% in 2000 to 0.4% in 2016. However, quality nutrition of Malaysians continues to be an ongoing area of concern that requires urgent attention.Thus, this CSR programme focusing on nutritional food for underprivileged school children have been one of the primary initiatives of the Corporate Communications department of Bank Rakyat since 2019. The main objective of Nuri Nutrisi is to raise nutrition, health and wellness awareness through the provision of nutritious food and safe drinking water for all students. Underprivileged students selected by their schools are provided with nutritious meals for three months during recess, and various nutrition education programmes are organised to share information and guidance with the students on healthy eating practices and nutritious food choices. Management Discussion and Analysis As part of the Nuri Nutrisi programme, the Bank funds a “Kebun Nuri Nutrisi”, working in partnership with schools and universities to install vegetable gardens and urban farms for continuous supply of nutritious food for the underprivileged students. Vegetables such as spinach, ladyfingers, mushrooms, sweet potatoes and chillies are cultivated in these farms. Once vegetables can be harvested, the programme entails educating students on entrepreneurship and agricultural business as they harvest, wash, weigh and package their vegetable produce for sale. All earned proceeds are reinvested into the programme and used to fund meals for underprivileged students. In the near future, the Bank will be embarking on larger scale projects with collaborations involving MARA Junior Science College (MRSM) and Federal Agriculture Marketing Authority (FAMA). This programme aims to commence the development of agriculture and livestock activities in selected MRSM across the country to uphold food security and safety by ensuring the availability and continuous access to safe and nutritious food for students. This project will not only allow us to help underprivileged students to have access to nutritional food supply, but also to help in fostering students’ entrepreneurial skills by allowing them to sell the surplus produce. As schools experienced extended closures due to MCO in FY2021, the Nuri Nutrisi programme could not take off as scheduled at several schools. However, impact of Kebun Nuri Nutrisi Programme has been much appreciated based on reports sent by participating schools. In 2021, Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Dang Anum, Merlimau, Melaka continued to upgrade their farm with over RM10,000 worth of hydrophonic hut and sets which were contributed by Bank Rakyat. Most of the farms have been prepared in readiness for continued planting once schools resume face to face classroom sessions in 2022. 2021 Zakat Contributions To date, 45 schools, three universities and 16,000 students from underprivileged backgrounds have directly benefitted from the programme; and Kebun Nuri Nutrisi have managed to impact 5,700 students. Our Bank is more than just a business, as we believe that business should serve the people and not the other way around. In line with this, we anchor our existence on supporting nation-building using our own platform and resources to uplift underserved communities and contribute positively to their lives. Our focus on the underserved upholds a commitment to social inclusion. This drives our focus on achieving the World Bank Group’s twin goals of ending extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity.

The provision of well-trained Bank agents supports Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM)’s financial inclusion mandate to reach out and provide services for the overall well-being of isolated communities. While primarily serving as a community service to underserved and unserved areas, the provision of Bank agents also serves as a marketing tool to increase deposits in Current Accounts-i and Saving Accounts-i (CASA). Digitalisation Blueprint The Bank’s digitalisation blueprint targets sales effectiveness and service excellence through strategic digital transformation. This requires the Bank to willingly disrupt current processes by displacing existing manual processes and embarking on digital platforms. At the same time, the Bank is expected to leverage on digital capabilities to shape delightful customer experiences through new programme applications. On 5 April 2021, Bank Rakyat launched the Moratorium Programme Application. The application was made available on Bank Rakyat’s corporate website to enable easy application and refund inquiries. Soon after, the QR e-Application for Credit Card-i was launched on 27 April 2021. This revitalised the demand for Bank Rakyat’s Credit Card-i with 2,404 applications received by December 2021. The highlight of the year however was the launch of Bank Rakyat’s iRakyat Mobile Banking application which was launched on 30 September 2021 and has achieved 71,210 downloads in 2021.

FROM THE TOP SMEC Business Blueprint Bank Rakyat’s new vision and mission coincide with the objectives of our mandate that aims to improve the economic status and development of communities as well as drive growth in the Cooperative and entrepreneurship sector for the benefit of members and customers. Focusing on this mandated role as well as new growth areas to create long-term value for members, Bank Rakyat’s 2025 strategic plan includes the establishment of 10 Small and Medium Enterprises and Cooperatives (SMEC) business centres nationwide, including in Sabah and Sarawak. This was completed in 2021. Through the SMECs, the Bank is able to foster and build loyalty with Cooperative businesses at micro to SME to preIPO levels; play a role as a strategic enabler through alliances within the SME ecosystem; and reach out to unserved and underserved Cooperatives. This serves the KUSKOP’s National Entrepreneurship Policy 2030 agenda which is to establish Malaysia as a full-fledged entrepreneurial nation by 2030. To ensure the effectiveness of the Bank’s SMECs, Bank Rakyat also partners and collaborates with various agencies within the KUSKOP ecosystem, as well as communities, Cooperatives and private organisations to ensure a system of shared prosperity.

It allows for benchmarking of results across industries and markets, allowing winners to build their brand as a desirable employer that can attract and retain top talents. The award recognises companies with the best HR practices and which demonstrate high levels of employee engagement and excellent workplace cultures, thus attracts applications from Fortune 500 companies, as well as multinational corporations and government-linked companies. Entry to the HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia Awards also entitles the nominee company to a holistic and informative assessment of the applicant’s HR practices and employees, via a proprietary TEAM assessment. For Bank Rakyat, the assessment yielded that Bank Rakyat scored higher than Industry Average for all the scoring i.e. Core, Self and Group. In nurturing the potential of its human capital, Bank Rakyat also took the opportunity to launch 410 programmes conducted to train 4,313 personnel in 2021. At the end of the programme, 234 personnel were certified.

  70. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD Remuneration Principle MEASUREMENT OF PERFORMANCE The fundamental purpose of performance management is to enhance results of the organization supported by teams , and individuals by managing performance within an agreed framework of planned goals, standards, and competency requirements. Performance Management incorporate two (2) key elements: i. Remuneration Principle The second element of our performance metric is Competencies. In Bank Rakyat, we have developed a set of competencies we refer to as I.N.S.P.I.R.E framework to measure the competencies as follows: i. Impact and Influence (I) Why it matters  - To position Bank Rakyat as a major player in commercial and retail banking whilst maintaining its cooperative bank role. It is critical for its leaders to be able to effectively use/adapt persuasion and influencing skills to grow its customer base, position a diverse product portfolio as well as to effectively manage key stakeholders (e.g. Bank Negara, Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism and MOF). Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Employees must know what is expected of them and know “what” that must be achieved by them through structured KPIs. ii. Behavioural Competencies ii. Nurture and Develop Others (N) Employees must have the knowledge, skills and attitude to deliver on these expectations of “what” is expected. Performance metrices in Bank Rakyat are divided into two main categories: KPIs derived from the Key Results Areas (KRAs) and Competencies. Why it matters  -  Building up internal capabilities to mitigate the risk in succession and ensure long-term business sustainability. Ensure that capability development interventions match the longterm business demand. iii. Strategic Insight (S) There are four (4) categories under Key Result Area (KRA) which are: •Financial •Customer • Governance & Internal Business Process • People (Learning & Growth) Why it matters  -  To realise the transformation of Bank Rakyat in strengthening its role as a competitive retail and commercial bank whilst maintaining its core mandate, its leaders needs to be able to recognise market trends and developments; and adapts strategy to achieve business results and meet evolving customer needs. iv. Performance Excellence Mindset (P) The performance metrics implemented is to ensure the employee strives towards meeting the goals to support Bank Rakyat towards achieving its Vision and Mission. Why it matters  - To drive a high-performance culture and to become a merit-based organisation, it is critical to emphasise accountability and personal ownership at all levels of the Bank. The first KRA category is for the Bank, through its employees, to work towards achieving its financial goals in terms of profit and growth. Thus, financial KPIs are determined to enable the employees to strategize to achieve the target financial goals. v. Innovation and Change (I) Why it matters  - In alignment with the Bank’s Vision to become a competitive commercial and retail bank, it is critical to continuously improve and evolve its internal processes and practices such that greater efficiency can be achieved. vi. Re-Energise Customer Service Orientation (R) Why it matters  - To become the bank of choice, it is critical to ensure reliable and efficient service to all customer segments. Enhance end-to-end customer experience by improving service standards, recognising different needs and taking a proactive service approach to meeting those needs. vii. Engage Internal Collaboration (E) Why it matters  - Greater collaboration and a sense of shared purpose within and across functions would promote better alignment and optimisation of resources. The second KRA is to address its target market in terms of customer reach by identifying the best channel for market penetration through appropriate customer-oriented strategies and initiatives to promote its products. Identified KPIs for employees would be to drive customer-oriented initiatives to increase its customer base as well provide value to its customers. The third KRA is to inculcate a compliance culture and strengthen the business processes. A compliance culture displays adherence to governance and mitigation of risks to ensure integrity. While a strong business process supports systems and structural capabilities necessary in an efficient as well as effective management. Employees will have KPIs that range from applying the relevant policies & procedures to applying appropriate SOPs. This serves as an enabler to meet customers’ requirement. Monitoring and reporting become key in managing, analysing and delivering results. KPIs will include areas such as meeting Turn Around Time (TAT) or acceptable response time in completing task with adequate controls in place. The fourth KRA category is in learning and growth to build internal capability and to support the employee’s career development based on their career aspiration. KPIs are structured for supervisors to make people management as part of their agenda. Building of internal capability ensures sustainability as competencies are to be embedded in all aspects of work in the Bank. While a longterm career growth allows for a strong succession pipeline to be institutionalized. Both the supervisor and employee will develop synergy in crafting their KPIs for the Bank’s growth. 137 In maintaining integrity in our performance management process whereby rewards commensurate with the balance of contribution and compliance, we have obtained approval from the Management to incorporate the Demerit System into our appraisal exercise. We have also conducted various briefings to ensure KPIs are better structured for alignment to business goals. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 136

  75. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD Risk Management Committee Together We Can ! Liquidity Resiliency Forging Unity and Harnessing Synergies in The Face of Volatility and Hardship Emerging from the worst of the pandemic, resilience was fortified across all operations against a new backdrop in the financial ecosphere with the introduction of various financial assistance programmes, moratoriums and new platforms for conducting business. Economic and social disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic continued to hit all industry sectors in 2021. As the nation continued to sail through unprecedented terrain, Risk Management through its role as the second line of defence continued to manoeuvre the Bank’s direction through an uncharted landscape. Bank Rakyat’s Risk Strategy 2021 was established by Risk Management in collaboration with all business units to ensure that the Bank is able to continue to fulfil our mandated role without prejudicing our profitability and our customers’ financial wellbeing. As an agency under the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (KUSKOP), Bank Rakyat continued to support the Government’s initiatives in line with the announced National Budget 2021 and Pakej Perlindungan Rakyat Dan Pemulihan Ekonomi (PEMULIH). On this note, the Policy for Payment Assistance Programme was reviewed in accordance with the said initiatives and requirements as delineated by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM). CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Risk Management Committee Risk Management continued to be an active participant within the War Room Committee (WRC) where the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) has been given the role of an Alternate Chairman to closely monitor payment assistance granted by the Bank. In-depth analysis was conducted to prudently monitor asset quality and credit risk concerns were proactively highlighted based on monthly market updates to ensure the Bank remained resilient. In support of the Government’s effort to assist Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic via the introduction of various funds, Risk Management provided technical assistance to simplify the credit underwriting process. Predefined parameters were aligned with the minimum acceptance criteria, as recommended by the regulator/fund providers to expedite the approval process. Risk management is committed to ensure Expected Credit Loss (ECL) computed from the MFRS9 impairment model is sufficient by performing model calibration for the financial year 2021. The model has been validated by an external party, and is deemed robust and able to cushion the Bank from all expected future adversity that may arise. Moreover, to ensure the Bank’s financials remain resilient, the Credit Risk premium is periodically reviewed. The year’s unprecedented events required the Bank to play a more expansive role in supporting the needs of society and our customers. Priority was placed on a #kitajagakita approach as most of our customers’ income were impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. Stress Testing and Reverse Stress Testing were used as key risk management tools to evaluate the capital adequacy of the Bank. The tests were carried out to assess the impact of a range of adverse scenarios with different probabilities and severities. The outcome from stress testing indicates the Bank’s capital position remains strong, with continued business momentum and balance sheet growth. As the country continues to stabilise and taking prudent steps to end the pandemic phase, the Bank will continue to practice good risk management in facing volatility and hardship. Ensuring Sustainable Growth and Return The pandemic was expected to finally fade into the background in 2021. By leveraging on emerging opportunities, the Bank geared all resources to focus on growth. The strategy to strive for an optimal balance sheet through assets and funding diversification, reflective of the internal and external market conditions, served as a guide in harmonising both risk and reward. The Bank’s key strategy in balance sheet management was to focus on targeted growth and realigning the portfolio composition. The investment portfolio strategy was directed towards maintaining an adequate level of high-quality liquid assets, in line with compliance requirements and ensuring sufficient growth to cater for return requirements. Throughout the year, the Bank concentrated on managing structural risk exposures, namely rate of return and liquidity risks, which guarantee a healthy balance sheet and safeguard returns. The exposure in the rate of return risk was managed through capital reserving and portfolio composition diversification. This emphasised the growth of floating rate financing and current and savings accounts. With commitment to the implemented plans and action steps put forward over the years, the Bank has successfully managed to ensure that the rate of return risk exposure level is within prescribed best practice levels. 147 The Bank adapted to these new variables and ensured liquidity resiliency, recording an adequate liquidity position, with key liquidity ratios such as Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) well above the prescribed minimum requirements. These are supported by the Bank’s comprehensive liquidity risk strategy and management. The Bank accelerated efforts to enhance diversification in liability structure with the primary objective on the stability of funding sources via growth in customer deposits, interbank deposits and medium-term funds. Liquidity risk positions are monitored regularly against the established liquidity risk management framework, policies and procedures. The Bank uses a range of tools to monitor and control liquidity risk exposure, such as intra-day cash flow position, liquidity mismatch gap, concentration of deposits, availability of funding, stress testing, and reverse stress testing. The process of managing liquidity risk includes maintaining enough unencumbered high-quality liquid assets as a protection against any unforeseen interruption to the Bank’s cash flows. The Bank has in place a Liquidity Contingency Funding Plan (LCFP) formulated to provide a systematic approach in addressing potential liquidity crisis or funding disruption affecting its liquidity soundness and financial solvency. The LCFP comprises strategies, decision-making authorities, communication channels and processes as well as courses of action for management to make prompt decisions. The plan is reviewed and tested regularly to ensure its effectiveness and robustness in handling liquidity crisis events and to meet the Bank’s obligations in a timely manner and at a reasonable cost. Maintaining and managing market volatility As a second line of defense, the Treasury Risk Department consistently monitors the Bank’s financial instruments’ (Foreign Exchange, Money Market, Fixed Income and Equity) performance through identifying, measuring, monitoring, and reporting Market Risk limits such as Value at Risk (VaR), Management Action Trigger (MAT), stop loss and sensitivity limits, on a daily and monthly basis, to ensure the trading is in or within the Bank risk parameters. This ongoing effort is crucial to ensure accurate risk recognition, which includes the identification and measurement of market risk factors in line with the Bank’s risk appetite. Risk appetite is translated into risk thresholds which are approved by the Board. These risk thresholds align specific risk-taking activities with the overall risk appetite of the Bank and our business units, i.e., the Treasury Sector. In addition, Treasury Risk continued to support lines of business to develop dynamic tools in managing the Bank’s portfolio risk during the economic uncertainty, as the pandemic slowdown persisted throughout the year. The adherence or compliance to the Market Risk policy, i.e. Trading Book Policy (TBPS), is to avoid undue concentration of market on profit rate risk, equity risk, foreign exchange risk, and commodity price risk. The guided policy for trading and non-trading activities is prepared with a benchmark against best market practices and adheres to regulatory requirements. The Treasury Risk Department ensures timely early warning is provided when risk thresholds are to be reached or exceeded, hence allowing the Treasury Department to manage their exposure within the risk thresholds. Besides that, a periodic review of Bank Rakyat’s Trading Book limits is essential to cater to the anticipated changes in risk profiles and business strategy. The robust Treasury trading system, reporting and data solution empowered the Bank to remain resilient during the pandemic. For that reason, Bank Rakyat continues to invest resources into process and system improvements, which help define and control inherent risks within the Bank. The enhancement initiatives on the Treasury system, led by the IT team in collaboration with the Front, Middle and Back Office teams, are to ensure the current system used is at par with industry practices, and provides a working environment suited to address the Business Continuity Plan during the crisis.

  76. ANNUAL REPORT 2021 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 148 Statement of Internal Control Risk Management Committee Resilience in Times of Crisis Responsibility Despite the expectations of economic recovery in 2021 , the emergence of new COVID-19 variants and the rising number of cases changed the scenario and delayed recovery expectations. Making it worse, in 2021, Malaysia experienced the worst flood in the country since 2014 – 2015. This was declared as a “once in a century” disaster. The intersection of both events disrupted the Bank’s operation, due to the numerous closures of affected branches and impact on the health of our customers. In accordance with BNM’s Policy Document on Corporate Governance, the Board acknowledges its responsibility to oversee the Bank’s internal control framework’s implementation. In fulfilling its fiduciary duty, the Board recognizes the importance of setting the right tone at the top, and the Board has consistently emphasised that control responsibilities must be taken seriously. As long-term adjustments to the new norm were enforced, there were calls for new initiatives and collective efforts to minimise systemic disruption in factoring the impacts. Relocation of the Bank’s alternate sites to a new centralised location have been initiated to better coordinate our operations whilst safeguarding the continuity of the business during such periods of volatility and uncertainty. Apart from ensuring the establishment of a sound internal control system, one of the Board’s primary responsibilities is to review the effectiveness and suitability of the internal control framework in light of material changes to the size, nature and complexity of the Bank’s operations. In order to form an opinion regarding the effectiveness of the internal control system, the Board would obtain from Management the necessary assurance that appropriate policies have been implemented and that the controls in place are adequate and functioning effectively. By sharing our practices and challenges on operational risks with the industry, we hone our agility to handle emerging risks. Bank Rakyat was a panelist at the 9th Head Operational Risk Consultative Group, where we stood alongside other operational risk players to discuss risk management of outsourcing, which includes concentration risk and substitutability risk during disasters. While the Board sets the ‘tone at the top’, it is the Management’s responsibility to implement the established policies and procedures. The Management is also responsible for identifying and evaluating the risks faced by the Bank as well as designing, implementing and monitoring an appropriate internal control system. Continuous efforts were made to build a cohesive risk management organisation that serves the dual needs of supporting the business and support units through sharing expertise and best practice, whilst at the same time ensuring appropriate risk controls are always in place. A series of Operational Risk Awareness Programmes have been activated to help set an effective Top-Down Approach with Risk Agents at respective regions. These assemble collective efforts to inculcate risk culture at the first line of defense and ensure that all related Operational risk tools are clearly understood and comprehensively executed in tackling the rise of new emerging risks. In view of the inherent limitations of any risk management and internal control system, the Board takes cognisance that such a system can only provide reasonable assurance, rather than absolute assurance, that the Bank’s objectives will be met and that it will be protected from material financial misstatement, fraud or losses. Our unity as an institution in successfully navigating through the unprecedented events of 2021 is the key pivot by which we can brave another such year in the foreseeable future. Now, more than ever before, organised coordination and efforts are required from each and every stakeholder, as encapsulated by our belief that ‘Together We Can!’. The critical components of the Board’s established internal control system that ensures effective governance and oversight of internal controls include, amongst others, the following: Staying Ahead of Technology and Cybersecurity Threats As financial institutions today are more reliant on complex technology, the risk of system failure and data compromise are comparatively high. To remain operationally resilient, the Bank continuously strengthens Technology Risk functions through effective identification of technology and data related risks subsequently reducing and managing those risks by developing appropriate response plans to enhance the Bank’s technology risk posture. With the challenges that arose from the COVID-19 pandemic, cyber security threats continue to evolve, posing the same theme of malicious threat actors taking advantage of the vulnerabilities that could be found on one’s systems or computer networks. Rapid large-scale adoption of digital business and remote working have accelerated opportunities for these threat actors to exploit the unprecedented landscape. In 2021, Malaysia reported eight significant cases of personal data leakage involving 67.5 million personal records of users, and the number of ransomware attacks continues to rise 1. Key Internal Control System • Organisation Structure  The Board has established an organisational structure with clearly defined lines of responsibility, authority limits and accountabilities, which are aligned with business and operations requirements to support the maintenance of a robust control environment. In order to effectively carry out its responsibilities, the Board has delegated authority to various Board Committees including the Board Nomination and Remuneration Committee, Board Risk Committee, Audit and Examination Committee, Board Financing Committee, Board Integrity and Governance Committee, Board IT Committee, Board Tender Committee and Board Investment Committee to oversee specific responsibilities based on the approved terms of reference. Any amendment to the Board Committees’ terms of reference requires the Board’s approval.  As a full-fledged Islamic financial institution incorporated in Malaysia, Bank Rakyat has also established the Shariah Committee to ensure compliance of all activities, products, transactions, operations and zakat management of Bank Rakyat and all of its subsidiaries at all times. The Bank remains committed and has taken proactive measures to stay ahead of cyber threats by prioritising technology investment that ensures our data protection and payment security are secure and up to standards. The Chief Information Security Office (CIS Office) continuously aligns the Bank’s cyber security programme with risk strategy and enhances our capabilities to continuously monitor and respond to threats by elevating cyber security effectiveness and scalability across Information Security, Security Operations Centre as well as Threat Intelligence and Research functions. Regular activities that raise staff awareness, familiarity and alertness on technology and cyber threats and incidents and cyber drills have been carried out continuously. • Moving Forward The AEC actively oversees the work and performance of the IA function. In discharging its duties, the AEC meets periodically to review key audit reports (including reports on internal controls, risk management processes, compliance with statutory requirements and governance practices) and ensure that the Management is taking necessary corrective actions in a timely manner to address control weaknesses, non-compliance with laws, regulatory requirements, policies and other problems identified by the Internal Audit and other control functions. Bank Rakyat is focused on sustainable progress, in line with the Bank’s Sustainability Blueprint and regulatory requirements on Climate Change and Principles-based Taxonomy (CCPT) and Climate Risk Management and Scenario Analysis (CRMSA) by BNM. Towards this end, the Bank will develop a policy on sustainability risk management to manage our exposure in line with the key principles or requirements of BNM’s CCPT and CRMSA, as well as Value-based Intermediation (VBI).   Source: Malaysia Kini, 22 December 2021, https://www.malaysiakini.com/news/604088 1 Oversight by Audit and Examination Committee  The Audit and Examination Committee (“AEC”) is a committee, which comprises of only independent non-executive directors, established by the Board to assist in the execution of its governance and oversight responsibilities as well as to provide independent assurance to the Board that the risk management, internal control systems and governance processes are functioning effectively through the Internal Audit (“IA”) function. 149 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD

Independence and Other Ethical Responsibilities CERTIFICATE OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF BANK KERJASAMA RAKYAT MALAYSIA BERHAD FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021 Certificate on the Audit of the Financial Statements Opinion I have authorised a private audit firm pursuant to Subsection 7 (3) of the Audit Act 1957 [Act 62] to undertake an audit of the Financial Statements of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad. The financial statements comprise the Statements of Financial Position as at 31 December 2021 of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad and the Statements of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, Statements of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, as set out on pages 4 to 211. In my opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad as at 31 December 2021, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (MFRS) and the Financial Reporting for Development Financial Institutions policy issued by Bank Negara Malaysia, Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad (Special Provisions) Act 1978 [Act 202], the Co-operative Societies Act 1993 [Act 502] and the Development Financial Institutions Act 2002 [Act 618] requirements. I am independent of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions. Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor’s Certificate Thereon The Board of Directors of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad is responsible for the other information in the Annual Report. My opinion on the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad does not cover the other information than the financial statements and Auditor’s Certificate thereon and I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Responsibilities of the Board of Directors for the Financial Statements The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (MFRS) and the Financial Reporting for Development Financial Institutions policy issued by Bank Negara Malaysia, Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad (Special Provisions) Act 1978 [Act 202], the Co-operative Societies Act 1993 [Act 502] and the Development Financial Institutions Act 2002 [Act 618] requirements. The Board of Directors is also responsible for such internal control as the Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Group’s and the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting. Basis for Opinion Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements The audit was conducted in accordance with the Audit Act 1957 and the International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions. My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my certificate. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor’s Certificate that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions 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 2/4
  85. 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 the International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions, I exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also: a.identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad, 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 my 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; f.obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities and business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the Financial Statements of the Group. I am responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. I remain solely responsible for my audit opinion. The Board of Directors has been informed regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I have identify during the audit. I have also disclosed to the Board of Directors that I have complied with the ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicated with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and if applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements 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 the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad’s internal control; c.evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors; In accordance with the requirements of the Financial Reporting for Development Financial Institutions policy issued by Bank Negara Malaysia, Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad (Special Provisions) Act 1978 [Act 202], the Co-operative Societies Act 1993 [Act 502] and the Development Financial Institutions Act 2002 [Act 618], I report that the subsidiaries, of which I have not acted as auditor, are disclosed in Note 16 to the Financial Statements. Other Matters d.conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s or the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad’s ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my Auditor’s Certificate to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements of the Group and of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of Auditor’s Certificate. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad 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 Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation; and This certificate is made solely to the Board of Directors of the Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad in accordance with the Financial Reporting for Development Financial Institutions policy issued by Bank Negara Malaysia, Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Berhad (Special Provisions) Act 1978 [Act 202], the Co-operative Societies Act 1993 [Act 502] and the Development Financial Institutions Act 2002 [Act 618] requirements, and for no other purpose. I do not assume responsibility to any other person for the content of this certificate. (DATUK SERI NIK AZMAN NIK ABDUL MAJID) AUDITOR GENERAL MALAYSIA PUTRAJAYA 25 MARCH 2022 3/4 4/4

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 3.1 Basis of preparation The financial statements of the Group and of the Bank have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain assets and financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration involved in exchange for goods and services. 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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of MFRS 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of MFRS 16 and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in MFRS 102 or value-in-use in MFRS 136. In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows: •Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date; •Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; •Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable. The principal accounting policies are set out below. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 188

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.2 3.2 Subsidiaries and basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Bank and entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Bank and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Bank has the power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect the investee’s return. The Bank reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control stated above. When the Bank has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Bank considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Bank’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including: FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) •the size of the Bank’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders; • potential voting rights held by the Bank, other vote holders or other parties; • rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and •any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Bank has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Bank obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Bank loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Bank gains control until the date when the Bank ceases to control the subsidiary. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Bank and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Bank and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policy.  All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation. Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Bank. 191 Subsidiaries and basis of consolidation (continued) When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary. The fair value of any investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under MFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“MFRS 9”), and when applicable, the cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or joint venture. Investments in subsidiaries are measured in the Bank’s statement of financial position at cost less any impairment losses, unless the investment is classified as held for sale or distribution. The cost of investment includes transaction costs. 3.3 Business combinations  Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred by the Group, liabilities incurred by the Group to the former owners of the acquiree and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. At acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognised at their fair value, except that: •deferred tax assets or liabilities and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with MFRS 112, Income Taxes and MFRS 119, Employee Benefits respectively; •liabilities or equity instruments related to the share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or sharebased payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with MFRS 2, Share-based Payment at the acquisition date; and •assets (or disposal groups) that are classified and measured as held-for-sale in accordance with MFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain. Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may be initially measured either at fair value or at the noncontrolling interests’ proportionate share of the recognised amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Other types of non-controlling interests are measured at fair value or, when applicable, on the basis specified in another MFRS. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 190

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.3 3.5 Business combinations (continued) Where the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the “measurement period” (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The subsequent accounting for changes in the fair value of contingent consideration that do not qualify as measurement period adjustments depends on how the contingent consideration is classified. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability that is a financial instrument and within the scope of MFRS 9, is measured at fair value with the changes in fair value recognised in the statements of profit or loss in accordance with MFRS 9. Other contingent consideration that is not within the scope of MFRS 9 is measured at fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) Where a business combination is achieved in stages, the Group’s previously held equity interests in the acquiree are remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date (i.e. the date when the Group attains control) and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognised in profit or loss. Amounts arising from interests in the acquiree prior to the acquisition date that have previously been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss, where such treatment would be appropriate if that interest were disposed of. If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see above), or additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised at that date. 3.4 Goodwill on consolidation Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business (see 3.3 above) less accumulated impairment losses, if any. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal. 193 Financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when, and only when the Group and the Bank become a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.  Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss. 3.5.1 Financial assets 3.5.1.1 Date of recognition All financial assets are initially recognised on the trade date, i.e. the date that the Group and the Bank become a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. This includes regular way trades, purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place. 3.5.1.2 Initial recognition and subsequent measurement All financial assets are measured initially at their fair value plus directly attributable transaction costs, except in the case of financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss. The Group and the Bank classify all of its financial assets based on the business model for managing the assets and the asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics, measured at either: • Amortised cost • Fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) • Fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) Included in financial assets are the following: (i) Financial assets at amortised cost The Group and the Bank measure financial assets at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met: •The financial asset is held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and •The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit (“SPPP”) on the principal amount outstanding.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5 Financial instruments (continued) 3.5 3.5.1 Financial assets (continued) 3.5.1.2 Initial recognition and subsequent measurement (continued) (i) 3.5.1 Financial assets (continued) 3.5.1.2 Initial recognition and subsequent measurement (continued) The details of these conditions are outlined below: Business model assessment The Group and the Bank determine its business model at the level that best reflects how groups of financial assets are managed to achieve its business objective.  The Group and the Bank’s business model is not assessed on an instrument-byinstrument basis, but a higher level of aggregated portfolios and is based on observable factors such as: • How the performance of the business model and the financial assets held within that business model are evaluated and reported to the key management personnel; •The risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and, in particular, the way those risks are managed; • How managers of the business are compensated (for example, whether the compensation is based on the fair value of the assets managed or on the contractual cash flows collected); or •The expected frequency, value and timing of sales are also important aspects of the Group and the Bank’s assessment. The business model assessment is based on reasonably expected scenarios without taking ‘worst case’ or ‘stress case’ scenarios into account. If cash flows after initial recognition are realised in a way that is different from the Group and the Bank’s original expectations, the Group and the Bank do not change the classification of the remaining financial assets held in that business model, but incorporate such information when assessing newly originated or newly purchased financial assets going forward. (b) The SPPP test  As a second step of its classification process the Group and the Bank assess the contractual terms of financial assets to identify whether they meet the SPPP test. “Principal” for the purpose of this test is defined as their fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition and may change over the life of the financial asset (for example, if there are financing payment of principal or amortisation of the premium/discount). 195 Financial instruments (continued) Financial assets at amortised cost (continued) (a) FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) (i) Financial assets at amortised cost (continued) (b) The SPPP test (continued) The most significant elements of profit within a financing arrangement are typically the consideration for the time value of money and credit risk. To make the SPPP assessment, the Group and the Bank apply judgement and considers relevant factors such as the currency in which the financial asset is denominated, and the period for which the profit rate is set.  In contrast, contractual terms that introduce a more than de minimis exposure to risks or volatility in the contractual cash flows that are unrelated to a basic financing arrangement do not give rise to contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and profit on the amount outstanding. In such cases, the financial asset is required to be measured at FVTPL. (ii) Fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) The Group and the Bank apply the new category under MFRS 9 of debt instruments measured at FVOCI when both of the following conditions are met: •The instrument is held within a business model, the objective of which is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and • The contractual terms of the financial assets meet the SPPP test. Financial assets at FVOCI are subsequently measured at fair value with gains and losses arising due to changes in fair value recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”). Profit income and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost. On derecognition, cumulative gains or losses previously recognised in OCI are reclassified from OCI to profit or loss.  Equity instruments are normally measured at FVTPL. However, for unquoted equity instruments, with an irrevocable option at inception, the Group and the Bank measure the changes through FVOCI (without recycling profit or loss upon derecognition). (iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”)  Financial assets at FVTPL include financial assets held-for-trading and financial asset designated at FVTPL upon initial recognition. Financial assets are classified as held-for-trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Derivatives, including separated embedded derivatives, are also classified as held-for-trading. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 194

Management designates an instrument at FVTPL upon initial recognition when one of the following criteria are met. Such designation is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis: • The designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets or liabilities or recognising gains or losses on them on a different basis; or •The assets and liabilities are part of a group of financial assets, financial liabilities or both, which are managed and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. Financial instruments (continued) 3.5.1 Financial assets (continued) 3.5.1.3 Impairment of financial assets (continued) The measurement of ECL involves increased complexity and judgement that include: (i) Determining a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition The assessment of significant deterioration since initial recognition is the key to determine the point of switching between measuring an allowance based on 12-month ECL, or an allowance based on lifetime ECL. A number of both qualitative and quantitative assessments are used in determining whether there is a significant increase in credit risk as at reporting date when compared with the date of initial recognition. The Group and the Bank apply a three-stage approach based on the change in credit quality since initial recognition: (iv) Financing and receivables  Financing and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Profit on financing is recognised in profit or loss by applying the effective profit rate. Effective profit method The effective profit method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or liability and of allocating profit income or expense over the relevant period. The effective profit rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. 3.5.1.3 Impairment of financial assets The MFRS 9 impairment requirements are based on an Expected Credit Loss (“ECL”) model. The ECL model applies to financial assets measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI, irrevocable financing commitments and financial guarantee contracts; which include financing and advances, as well as financial instruments held by the Group and the Bank. The ECL model also applies to contract assets under MFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Performing Under-performing Non-performing Description No significant increase in credit risk Credit risk increased significantly Credit impaired assets ECL Approach 12-month ECL Lifetime ECL Lifetime ECL Recognition of profit income On gross carrying amount On gross carrying amount On net carrying amount 3-Stage approach  Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets held-for-trading and financial assets designated at FVTPL are recorded in the statements of financial position at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognised in the profit or loss under the heading of ‘other operating income’. Financing and receivables are initially recognised at fair value, including direct and incremental transaction costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective profit method, less any impairment. Regular way recognition of financing and advances is recorded on settlement date, when all the conditions under financing contract have been fulfilled. 197 for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 3. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) (ii) ECL Measurement There are three main components to measure ECL which are probability of default (“PD”) model, a loss given default (“LGD”) model, and the exposure at default model (“EAD”). a) Probability of default PD provides an estimate of the likelihood that a customer will be unable to meet its debt obligation or default over a particular time horizon. b) Loss Given Default LGD is defined as the percentage of exposure the Bank might lose in case the customer defaults. These losses are usually shown as a percentage of EAD, and depend, amongst others, on the type and amount of collateral as well as the type of customer and the expected proceeds from the work-out of the assets. c) Exposure at Default EAD is an estimate of the Bank’s exposure to its counterparty at the time of default. For defaulted accounts, EAD is simply the amount outstanding at the point of default. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 196

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5 Financial instruments (continued) 3.5 3.5.1 Financial assets (continued) 3.5.1.3 Impairment of financial assets (continued) (ii) ECL Measurement (continued)  MFRS 9 does not distinguish between individual assessment and collective assessment. Therefore, the Group and the Bank have continued to measure impairment on individual assessment basis for financial assets that are deemed to be individually significant. All other remaining financial assets are collectively assessed as per the Group’s policy. (iii) Expected life FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) Lifetime expected credit losses must be measured over the expected life. This is defined to be the maximum contractual life, including any expected prepayment, extension, call and similar options. (iv) Financial investments at FVOCI The ECLs of financial investments measured at FVOCI do not reduce the carrying amount of these financial assets, which remains at fair value. Rather, an amount equal to the allowance that would arise if the assets were measured at amortised cost is recognised in OCI as an accumulated impairment amount, with a corresponding charge to profit or loss. The accumulated loss recognised in OCI is recycled to the profit or loss upon derecognition of the assets. (v) Forward-looking information Expected credit losses are the unbiased probability-weighted credit losses, determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes and considering future economic conditions. The reasonable and supportable forward-looking forward is based on the Group’s and the Bank’s Economic Research Division. Where applicable, the Group and the Bank incorporate forward-looking adjustments in credit risk factors of PD and LGD used in ECL calculation, taking into account the impact of multiple probability-weighted future forecast economic scenarios. Embedded in ECL is a broad range of forward-looking information as economic inputs, such as: • • • • • • • • • Private Final Consumption (“PFC”); Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”); Consumer Sentiment Index (“CSI”); Unemployment Rate (“Unemployment”); Overnight Pricing Rate (“OPR”); Passenger Cars (“Passenger Cars”); Consumer Price Indices (“CPI”); House Price Indices (“HPI”); or FTSE Bursa Malaysia Small Cap Index (“FTSE”). 199 Financial instruments (continued) 3.5.1 Financial assets (continued) 3.5.1.3 Impairment of financial assets (continued) (v) Forward-looking information (continued) The Group and Bank apply the following three alternative macro-economic scenarios to reflect an unbiased probability-weighted range of possible future outcomes in estimating ECL: • Base scenario: This scenario reflects the current macro-economic conditions continue to prevail. • Best and Worst scenarios: These scenarios are set relative to the base scenario; reflecting the best and worst case macro-economic conditions respectively, based on subject matter expert’s best judgement from current economic conditions. (vi) Valuation for Stage 3 ECL The Group and the Bank’s accounting policy for collateral assigned to it through its financing arrangements under MFRS 9 is the same as it was under MFRS 139. 3.5.1.4 Rescheduled and restructured financing Where a financing shows evidence of credit weaknesses, the Group and the Bank may seek to renegotiate the financing rather than to take possession of collateral. This may involve an extension of the payment arrangements via rescheduling or the renegotiation of new financing terms and conditions via restructuring. Management monitors the renegotiated financing to ensure that all the revised terms are met and that the payments are made promptly for a continuous period. Where an impaired financing is renegotiated, the customer must adhere to the revised and/or restructured payment terms for a continuous period of six months before the financing is classified as non-impaired. This financing continues to be subjected to ECL individually or collectively assessed. 3.5.1.5 Modification of financing (Policy applicable from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022)  Based on the BNM’s revised guideline on Financial Reporting for Development Financial Institutions, the prescribed development financial institutions (“DFIs”) shall make one-time election in 2020 to apply revision to the original effective profit rate in respect of any modifications made to the contractual cash flows of financing. In the event of election, the requirements shall apply for financial years beginning between 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022 and in respect of financing for which the contractual cash flows are modified, including payments deferred under moratoriums provided by DFIs during these financial years. The Group and the Bank elected to adopt the modified accounting treatment. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 198

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5 Financial instruments (continued) 3.5 3.5.1 Financial assets (continued) 3.5.2 3.5.1.6 Modification of financing (Policy applicable before 1 January 2020) Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the assets expire, or when the Group and the Bank transfer the financial assets and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets to another entity. If the Group and the Bank neither transfer nor retain substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continue to control the financial asset, the Group and the Bank recognise their retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group and the Bank retain substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group and the Bank continue to recognise the financial asset and also recognise a collaterised financing for the proceeds received. The Group and the Bank sometimes renegotiate or otherwise modify the contractual cash flows of financing to customers. When this happens, the Group and the Bank assess whether or not the new terms are substantially different to the original terms. The Group and the Bank do this by considering, among others, the following factors: FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) • If the customer is in financial difficulty, whether the modification merely reduces the contractual cash flows to amount the customer is expected to be able to pay; •Whether any substantial new terms are introduced, such as profit share/equity-based return that substantially affects the risk profile of the financing; • Significant extension of the financing term when the customer is not in financial difficulty; or • Significant change in profit rate. The Group and Bank sometimes renegotiate or otherwise modify the contractual cash flows of customer financing. When this happens, the Group and the Bank assess whether or not the new terms are substantially different to the original terms. The Group and Bank do this by considering, among others, the insertion of collateral, other security, or credit enhancements that significantly affect the credit risk associated with the financing. If the terms are substantially different, the Group and the Bank derecognise the original financial asset and recognise a ‘new’ asset at fair value and recalculate a new effective profit rate for the asset. The date of renegotiation is consequently considered to be the date of initial recognition for both impairment calculation purposes and in determining whether a significant increase in credit risk has occurred. If the terms are not substantially different, the renegotiation or modification does not result in derecognition. The Group and the Bank recalculate the gross carrying amount based on the revised cash flows of the financial asset and recognises a modification gain or loss in the income statements. The new gross carrying amount is recalculated by discounting the modified cashflows at the original effective profit rate. 3.5.1.7 Reclassification of financial assets Reclassification of financial assets is permissible when and only when there is change in business model for managing financial assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Group and the Bank do not reclassify its financial assets. 201 Financial instruments (continued) Derecognition of financial assets On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of other reserves is recognised in profit or loss. 3.5.3 Classification as debt or equity Debt and equity instruments issued by a group entity are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. 3.5.4 Equity instruments An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a group entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Repurchase of the Group’s and of the Bank’s own equity instruments is recognised and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group’s and of the Bank’s own equity instruments. 3.5.5 Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are initially recognised at the fair value of consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective profit method. The Group and the Bank do not have any non-derivative financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities at amortised cost include deposits from customers, deposits and placements from banks and financial institutions, trade and other payables, recourse obligations on financing sold to Cagamas, debt securities issued and other fund placement. The effective profit method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating profit expense over the relevant period. The effective profit rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. 3.5.6 Derecognition of financial liabilities The Group and the Bank derecognise financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s and the Bank’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liabilities derecognised and the consideration paid or payable is recognised in profit or loss. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 200

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.5 3.7 Financial instruments (continued) 3.5.7 Determination of fair value For financial instruments traded in active markets, the determination of fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities is based on quoted market prices. This includes listed equity securities and quoted debt instruments on Bursa Malaysia and broker quotes from Bond Pricing Agency. A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. If the above criteria are not met, the market is regarded as being inactive. Indications that a market is inactive are when there is a wide bid-offer spread or significant increase in the bid-offer spread or there are few recent transactions. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued)  For all other financial instruments, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Under these techniques, fair values are estimated from observable data in respect of similar financial instruments, using models to estimate the present value of expected future cash flows or other valuation techniques, and using inputs existing at the end of the reporting period. 3.6  he fair value for financing and advances as well as liabilities to banks and customers are determined using T a present value model on the basis of contractually agreed cash flows, taking into account credit quality, liquidity and costs. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and short term funds in the statements of financial position comprise of cash and bank balances with bank and other financial institutions and short-term deposits maturing within one month. For purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short term funds with original maturity of less than three months. 3.7Leases At inception of a contract, the Group and the Bank assess whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group and the Bank use the definition of a lease in MFRS 16. (a) Group as lessor Leases (continued) (a) Group as lessor (continued) Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease as part of ‘Other operating income’ (Note 33). Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.  mounts due from lessees under finance leases are recognised as receivables at the amount of the Group’s A and the Bank’s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group’s and the Bank’s net investment outstanding in respect of the leases. (b) Group as lessee The Group and the Bank apply a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group and the Bank recognise lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets. (i) Right-of-use assets The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liabilities, lease payments made at or before the commencement day, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liabilities. Whenever the Group and the Bank incur an obligation for costs to dismantle and remove a leased asset, restore the site on which it is located or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is recognised and measured under MFRS 137, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. To the extent that the costs relate to a right-of-use asset, the costs are included in the related right-of-use asset, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. If a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group and the Bank expect to exercise a purchase option, the related rightof-use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation starts at the commencement date of the lease: The Group and the Bank enter into lease agreements as a lessor with respect to some of its investment properties. Buildings Other equipment Leases for which the Group and the Bank is a lessor are classified as finance or operating leases. Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The right-of-use assets are presented as a separate line in the statements of financial position. When the Group or the Bank is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for the head lease and the sublease as two separate contracts. The sublease is classified as a finance or operating lease by reference to the right-of-use 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 or the Bank applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease. 203 1 - 10 years 1 - 2 years The Group and the Bank apply MFRS 136, Impairment of Assets to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and accounts for any identified impairment loss as described in Note 3.20 Impairment of non-financial assets. If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group and the Bank at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.7 3.8 Leases (continued) (b) Group as lessee (continued) (i) Right-of-use assets (continued) As a practical expedient, MFRS 16 permits a lessee not to separate non-lease components, and instead account for any lease and associated non-lease components as a single arrangement. The Group and the Bank has not used this practical expedient. For a contract that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Group and the Bank allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) (ii) Lease liabilities  At the commencement date of the lease, the Group and the Bank recognise lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and the Bank and payments of compensation for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group and the Bank exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs and are included in ‘Operating expenses’ in profit or loss. The Group and the Bank present lease liabilities in ‘Other liabilities’ (Note 27) in the statements of financial position. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group and the Bank use finance rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the lessees uses its incremental financing rate. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of finance cost and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities are remeasured (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero) if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. The Group and the Bank do not make any such adjustments during the periods presented. (iii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets  The Group and the Bank apply the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of parking space (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed. 205 Financing costs financing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other financing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. financing costs consist of profit expense and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the financing of funds. 3.9 Investment properties Properties that are held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that are not occupied by the entities in the Group and the Bank, are classified as investment properties. Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the end of the reporting period. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets), is included in profit or loss in the period which the property is derecognised. Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise, including the corresponding tax effect. Fair values are determined based on an annual valuation performed by an accredited external independent valuer applying a valuation model recommended by the International Valuation Standards Committee. Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition. In determining the amount of consideration from the derecognition of investment property the Group and the Bank consider the effects of variable consideration, existence of a significant financing component, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to the buyer (if any). Transfers are made to (or from) investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group and the Bank account for such property in accordance with the policy stated under property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use. Rental income from investment property is recognised as other income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. 3.10 Property and equipment Land and buildings comprise mainly branches and offices. All property and equipment used by the Group and the Bank are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure 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.  Subsequent expenditures are included in the asset’s carrying amount or are recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the Bank and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 204

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.10 3.11 Property and equipment (continued) All other repair and maintenance costs are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. Freehold land has unlimited useful life and therefore is not depreciated. Construction work-in-progress are not depreciated until the assets are ready for their intended use. Depreciation of other property and equipment are calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives as follows: FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) Buildings Leasehold land and buildings Renovation Furniture, fittings and office equipment Motor vehicles 50 years 50 years 5 - 50 years 5 years 5 years The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period with the effect of any changes in estimates accounted for on a prospective basis.  An item of property and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gains and losses arising on disposals are determined as the difference between sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss. 3.11 Intangible assets In addition to goodwill, intangible assets also includes computer software and software in-development. An intangible asset is recognised only when its cost can be measured reliably and it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to it will flow to the Group and the Bank.  Intangible assets acquired separately are measured at cost on initial recognition. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value as at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses, except software-in-development which is not subject to amortisation until the development is completed and the asset is available for use. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortised but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate and treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives recognised in the income statements in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset. 207 Intangible assets (continued) Gains or losses arising from derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in income statements when the asset are derecognised. Amortisation of intangible assets are calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives as follows: 3.12 Computer software 5 - 15 years Prepaid lease payments Leasehold land that has an indefinite economic life which title is not expected to pass to the Group by end of the lease period is classified as operating lease. The upfront payments for right to use the leasehold land over a predetermined period are accounted for as prepaid lease payments and are stated at cost less amount amortised. The prepaid lease payments are amortised on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease terms, ranging from 4 to 860 years (2020: 5 to 861 years). 3.13Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group and the Bank have a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past events, when it is probable that the Group and the Bank will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (where the effect of time value of money is material). 3.14Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined using the first-in, first out method) and net realisable value. The cost of inventories comprises the original cost of purchase plus the incidental cost incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less selling and distribution costs and all other estimated costs to completion. In arriving at net realisable value, due allowance is made for damaged, obsolete or slow-moving inventories. Completed property units for sale are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the ‘specific identification’ method. 3.15 Profit income and expense For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost and profit-bearing financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss and fair value through other comprehensive income, income and expense are recognised under “Income” and “Expenditure” respectively using the effective profit method. The effective profit method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or liability and of allocating the profit income or expense over the relevant period. The effective profit rate is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 3.15 3.18 Profit income and expense (continued) The calculation takes into account all contractual terms of the financial instruments (for example, prepayment options) but does not consider future credit losses. Significant fees and transaction costs integral to the effective profit rate, as well as premiums or discounts are also considered. For impaired assets where the value of the financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, profit income continues to be recognised using the profit rate used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. 3.16 Fee and commission income  Financing arrangement fees are recognised as income based on contractual arrangements. Guarantee fee is recognised as income upon issuance of the guarantee. Fees from advisory and corporate finance activities are recognised net of sales and service tax and discounts on completion of each stage of the assignment. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 3.17 3.18 3.18.2 Deferred income tax (continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle their current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. 3.19 Employee benefits 3.19.1 Defined contribution plan Fees and commissions are generally recognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided. Dividend income 3.19.2 Dividends are recognised in profit or loss as ‘dividend income’ when the Group’s right to receive payment is established. Wages, salaries, paid annual leaves, bonuses and social contributions are recognised in the year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and of the Bank. Short-term accumulating compensated absences such as paid annual leave are recognised when services are rendered by the employees that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences. Short-term non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave are recognised when the absences occur. 3.18.1 Current income tax Current income tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income 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 years. 3.18.2 Deferred income tax Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profits. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group and the Bank expect, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of their assets and liabilities. Income tax (continued) For defined contribution plan, the Group and the Bank pay contributions to Employees Provident Fund (“EPF”) on a mandatory basis. The Group and the Bank have no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Income tax The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. 209 3.20 Short-term employee benefits Impairment of non-financial assets At the end of each reporting period, the Group and the Bank review the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group and the Bank estimate the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs. When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified. Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use. In assessing value-in-use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3.21Zakat 4.1 In computing for zakat, the Group and the Bank have been applying the growth capital method based on the rate of 2.5%. This method applies the rate on owners’ equity, long term liability, net of fixed assets and non-current assets, and subjected to allowable adjustments. It is an obligatory amount payable on the business on behalf of the shareholders and/or business entity depending on the ownership characteristics. Zakat is distributed according to Shariah principle and being extended through Islamic Religious Council of the respective states and other rightful beneficiaries or asnaf. 4. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS The Group’s and the Bank’s financial statements and financial results are influenced by accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and management judgements, which necessarily have to be made in the course of preparation of the financial statements. The Group and the Bank make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. All estimates and assumptions required in conformity with MFRS are best estimates undertaken in accordance with the applicable standards. Estimates and judgements are evaluated on a continuous basis, and are based on past experience and other factors, including expectations with regard to future events. Accounting policies and management’s judgements for certain items are especially critical for the Group’s and the Bank’s results and financial situation due to their materiality. 4.1 Impairment losses on financing and advances The Group and the Bank review their financing and advances portfolio to determine whether impairment losses should be recognised in profit or loss. Financing is considered as impaired when there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of loss event that has affected future estimated cash flows of the financing subsequent to its initial recognition. Components of impairment allowance are as follows: (i) ECL individually assessed Where an account has exceeded certain number of arrears or when the account has fulfilled certain criteria that indicates credit weaknesses, the account is individually assessed for impairment. Individual allowance is measured as the difference between carrying amount of the financing and present value of estimated future cash flows that are discounted at the effective profit rate. Expectation on future cash flows is established by applying the best estimate formed on reliable and objective evidence. This process involves significant and reasonable judgement. 211 Impairment losses on financing and advances (continued) (ii) ECL collectively assessed The Group and the Bank’s ECL calculations under MFRS 9 are outputs of complex models with several underlying assumptions regarding the choice of variable inputs and their interdependencies. Elements of the ECL models that are considered accounting judgements and estimates include: •Criteria for assessing if there has been a significant increase in credit risk, which includes qualitative assessment, to determine whether financial assets should be measures on lifetime ECL basis rather than 12-month ECL basis; • The segmentation of financial assets, when their ECL is assessed on a collective basis; • Development of ECL models, including various formulas and the choice of inputs; •Determination of associations between macroeconomic scenarios, and economic inputs, such as unemployment levels and overnight pricing rate, and their effect on PDs, EADs, and LGDs; and •Selection of forward-looking macroeconomic scenarios and their probability weightings, to derive the economic inputs into the ECL models. 4.2 Impairment of financial assets portfolio The Group and the Bank review their financial investments at FVOCI and financial investments at amortised cost under MFRS 9 to recognise the ECL at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk of the financial investments not measured through FVTPL. MFRS 9 incorporates forward-looking and historical, current and forecasted information into ECL estimation. In carrying out the impairment review, the following management’s judgements are required: (i)Determination whether the investment is impaired based on certain indicators such as, among others, difficulties of the issuers or obligors, deterioration of the credit quality of the issuers or obligors; and (ii) Determination of ECL that reflect: (a)An unbiased and probability-weighted amount that is determined by evaluating a range of possible outcomes; (b) (c)Reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, as at the reporting date about past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic conditions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (CONTINUED) 5. 4.3  Based on the BNM’s revised guideline on Financial Reporting for Development Financial Institutions, the prescribed development financial institutions (“DFIs”) shall make a one-time election in 2020 to apply revisions to the original effective profit rate in respect of any modifications made to the contractual cash flows of financing. In the event of election, the requirements shall apply for financial years beginning between 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022 and in respect of financing for which the contractual cash flows are modified, including payments deferred under moratoriums provided by DFIs during these financial years. Fair value estimation of financial assets at FVTPL and financial investments at FVOCI When the fair value of financial assets recorded in the statements of financial position cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair values are measured using valuation techniques. Valuation techniques include the discounted cashflow methods, option pricing models, and other relevant valuation models. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 4.4 Deferred tax CHANGES IN REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS The Group and the Bank elected to adopt the modified accounting treatment. The comparison of the financial impact of applying the accounting treatment in accordance with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standard (“MFRS”) and the modified accounting treatment is as follows: Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that sufficient future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon likely timing and level of future taxable profit together with future tax planning strategies. 4.5 Determine the lease term of contracts with renewal and termination options - Group as lessee As at 31 December GroupBank 2021 RM’000 2020 RM’000 2021 RM’000 2020 RM’000 Financing and advances The Group and the Bank determine the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.

The Group and the Bank apply judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Group and the Bank reassess the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate. Closing balance under modified   accounting treatment 79,615,46478,155,88379,849,21478,370,933 The Group and the Bank include the renewal period as part of the lease term for leases of buildings and other equipment with shorter non-cancellable period (i.e., one to three years). The Group and the Bank typically exercise its option to renew for these leases because there will be a significant negative effect on operation if a replacement asset is not readily available. The renewal periods for leases of buildings with longer non-cancellable periods (i.e., 10 to 15 years) are not included as part of the lease term as these are not reasonably certain to be exercised. Furthermore, the periods covered by termination options are included as part of the lease term only when they are reasonably certain not to be exercised. Refer to Note 14 for information on potential future rental payments relating to periods following the exercise date of extension and termination options that are not included in the lease term.

RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS (i) 231 for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 13. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) Group as a lessee The Group and the Bank have lease contracts for buildings and other equipment used in its operations. Leases of buildings generally have lease terms between 1 to 10 years, with option to extend for another 1 to 3 years, while other equipment generally have lease terms between 1 to 2 years. The Group’s and the Bank’s obligations under its leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. Generally, the Group and the Bank are restricted from assigning and subleasing the leased assets and some contracts require the Group and the Bank to maintain certain financial ratios. There are several lease contracts that include extension and variable lease payments, which are further discussed below. The Group and the Bank also have certain leases of motor vehicle with lease terms of 12 months or less and lease of office equipment with low value. The Group and the Bank apply the ‘short-term lease’ and ‘lease of low-value assets’ recognition exemptions for these leases.

There are no non-cash additions to right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The future cash outflows relating to leases that have not yet commenced are disclosed in Note 27. Some property leases contain extension options exercisable by the Group and the Bank up to three years before the end of the non-cancellable contract period. Where practicable, the Group and the Bank seek to include extension options in new leases to provide operational flexibility. The extension options held are exercisable only by the Group and not by the lessors. The Group and the Bank assess at lease commencement date whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the extension options. The Group and the Bank reassess whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the options if there is a significant event or significant changes in circumstances within its control.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 44.3 44.3 Credit risk (continued) 44.3.2 Financing to retail customers Financing granted to retail customers is individually underwritten by assessing historical payment track record and payment capacity of the customer. This process is governed by Retail Credit Risk Policy, Product Policies and assessed using credit scorecard. Both Retail Credit Risk Policy and credit scorecard are developed by Risk Management while Product Policies are developed by Product Division within Retail Banking and are independently reviewed by Risk Management. The credit approving authority and credit approving officers have the responsibility to ensure that credit risk is properly assessed and all crucial credit information of the customer is included in the financing application. Risk Management is also responsible to assess new/variation of financing product or program to ensure that the product/program offered to customers is beneficial to both customers and Bank whilst mitigating the inherent risks. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 44.3.3 Financing to corporate customers Granting of credit to corporate customers is individually underwritten as guided by the Bank’s risk appetite and policies. In its oversight role, Risk Management conducts independent assessment on all credit proposals to corporate customers prior to approval. 44.3.4 Purchase of investment securities Credit qualities of financial instruments are assessed based on ratings from external credit ratings agencies. Portfolio review and monitoring is frequently conducted in ensuring the exposures are effectively managed and concentration risk is observed at all times. 44.3.5 Impaired financing and investment securities  Individually impaired financing and investment securities are financing and advances and investment securities (other than those carried at fair value through profit or loss) for which the Bank determines that there is objective evidence of impairment and it does not expect to collect all principal and profits due according to the contractual terms of the financing/investment security agreement(s). 44.3.6 Neither past due nor impaired financing and investment securities These are financing and investment securities from which contractual payment of profit or principal have not defaulted and therefore are not impaired since there is no objective evidence of impairment. 44.3.7 Past due but not impaired financing and investment securities Past due but not impaired financing and investment securities, other than those carried at fair value through profit or loss, are those for which contractual profits or principal payments are past due, more than 1 day but less than three (3) months. 44.3.8 Financing with renegotiated terms Financing with renegotiated terms are financing that have been restructured due to deterioration in the customer’s financial position. Once the financing is restructured it remains in this category independent of satisfactory performance after restructuring. 279 Credit risk (continued) 44.3.9 Allowances for impairment The Bank establishes an allowance for impairment loss on assets carried at amortised cost and fair value through other comprehensive income, which represents an estimation of expected losses in the financing and investment security portfolio. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective financing loss allowance established for groups of homogenous assets. Both components of allowance incorporates historical, current, and forecasted information in estimating the expected losses. Assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are not subject to impairment testing as the measure of fair value reflects the credit quality of each asset. 44.3.10 Write-off policy The Bank writes-off a financing or an investment security, and any related allowances for impairment losses, when the Bank determines that the financing or investment security is uncollectible. This determination is made after considering information such as the occurrence of significant changes in the customer’s/issuer’s financial position such that the customer/issuer can no longer pay the obligation, or that proceeds from collateral will not be sufficient to pay back the entire exposure. 44.3.11 Collateral on financing and advances In mitigating credit risk on financing and advances granted to customers, collaterals are obtained as follows: (i) House financing - charges over residential properties. (ii) Commercial property financing - charges over the properties being financed. (iii) Vehicle financing - ownership claims over the vehicles being financed. (iv)Other financing and advances - charges over business assets such as premises, trade receivables or deposits. 44.3.12 Credit grading for investment securities Credit qualities of financial instruments are assessed based on ratings from external credit ratings agencies. At the end of the reporting period, instruments rated with “Grade D” are those that have defaulted beyond their maturity period. 44.3.13 Maximum exposure to credit risk The following table presents the Bank’s credit exposure of on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet financial instruments. For on-balance sheet assets, the exposure to credit risk equals the carrying amount. For credit commitments, maximum exposure to credit risk is the full amount of the undrawn credit facilities granter to customers. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 278

Liquidity risk (continued) 44.3.19 Overlays and adjustments for expected credit losses amid COVID-19 environment As the current MFRS 9 models are not expected to generate levels of expected credit losses (“ECL”) with sufficient reliability in view of the unprecedented and on-going COVID-19 pandemic, flood, overlays and post-model adjustments have been applied to determine a sufficient overall level of ECLs for the year ended and as at 31 December 2021. The Bank has established liquidity contingency funding plan which entails the early warning indicators as well as strategies and actions to be taken by the liquidity crisis management team arising from different liquidity crisis scenarios. These overlays and post-model adjustments were taken to reflect the latest macroeconomic outlook not captured in the modelled outcome and the potential impact to delinquencies and defaults when the various relief and support measures expire.  The overlays and post-model adjustments involved significant level of judgement and reflect the management’s views of possible severities of the pandemic and paths of recovery in the forward-looking assessment for ECL estimation purposes. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) The customers who have received payment supports remain in their existing stages unless they have been individually identified as not viable or with subsequent indicators of significant increase in credit risk. The adjusted downside scenario assumes on ability of the identified customers to resume payment after the end of the payment assistance program that they have enrolled, the impact of these post-model adjustments were estimated at account level, remain outside the core MFRS 9 process and amounted to RM578 million as at 31 December 2021. 44.4 Liquidity risk Liquidity risk arises from mismatches in the timing of cash flows due to the inability to meet maturing or regulatory obligations and customers’ demands for funds when required, which may adversely affect daily operations, Bank’s reputation and incur unacceptable losses. 44.4.1 Management of liquidity risk The management of liquidity risk is subject to Bank Negara Malaysia’s Liquidity Framework and Liquidity Coverage Ratio requirements as well as the Bank’s liquidity risk management framework. The Bank adopts various liquidity risk measurement tools in managing the cash flows for daily movement as well as medium and long-term positions to ensure sufficient funding sources to meet obligations. It is important for the Bank to maintain diversification strategy of funding sources and providers to ensure stability of funding structure and adequate standby facilities while managing excessive concentration towards key depositors. The Bank maintains sufficient high-quality liquid assets to withstand against any unforeseen liquidity stress. In addition, a liquidity stress testing is conducted based on sensitivity analysis for various stress scenarios covering the Bank’s specific and market-wide crisis scenario. The stress scenarios would provide valuable assessment on the impact from adverse liquidity environment and the Bank’s vulnerable portfolios. 44.4.1 Management of liquidity risk (continued) The Bank’s liquidity risk management framework, policies and procedures are reviewed periodically which are endorsed by Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) and approved by the Board. ALCO meets on a monthly basis and is responsible to monitor the liquidity risk position against the Bank’s risk appetite and approved limits. 44.4.2 Exposure to liquidity risk The key measure used by the Bank for managing liquidity risk is the ratio of net liquid assets to deposits from customers. For this purpose, net liquid assets are considered as including cash and cash equivalents and investment grade securities for which there is an active and liquid market. Details of the reported Bank ratio of net liquid assets to deposits from customers at the end of the reporting period and during the year were as follows: Bank 2021 RM’000 At 31 December Average for the year Maximum for the year Minimum for the year 31.84%30.67% 32.19%32.66% 33.23%35.10% 31.26%30.67% Liquidity risk of assets and liabilities 44.4.3 2020 RM’000 The main thrust of liquidity management is the projection of up to one year of the maturity profile of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet commitments from a given position. The focus is on the ability of the Bank to match its short-term liquidity requirement arising from maturing obligations with maturing assets, followed by a medium-term assessment of liquidity up to one year. The primary basis for determining the appropriate time bands is the contractual maturity, which is when the cash flows crystallise. FINANCIAL STATEMENT 290

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 44.5 44.5 Market risk The function of Market Risk and Asset Liability Management (“ALM”) is to manage and control market risk exposure in order to optimize return on risk while maintaining a market profile consistent with the Bank’s strategic plan.  The Bank has established the market risk policy, strategy and processes which are periodically reviewed and updated to take into account changes in activities and market structure to ensure effective implementation of risk management policies. 44.5.1 Management of market risk The Bank manages market risk by segregating exposure to market risk between trading and non-trading portfolios. Trading portfolios are held by treasury department which consist of financial assets that are managed on fair value basis.  The risk measurement techniques employed by the Bank to measure and quantify the market value changes and the level of market risk comprise of Value-at-Risk (“VaR”), Modified Duration and Present Value of One Basis Point (“PV01”). Exposure of the Bank to the foreign exchange rates is minimal since operation of foreign currency unit is limited to remittance services only. 44.5.2 Profit rate risk Investment in debt securities and financing are exposed to risk of change in profit rates that would result in changes in cash flows. On the other hand, investment in equity securities and other short-term receivables and payables are not significantly exposed to profit rate risk. Among other efforts in mitigating this risk is by diversifying investment mainly in fixed-income securities with different duration. The Bank has not engaged in hedging through derivative instruments during the year. The sensitivity of the Bank’s financial assets and liabilities to the profit rate risk is measured and monitored proactively using multiple measurement techniques such as Gap Analysis, Duration and Simulation Model. 305 for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 44. Market risk is defined as the risk of financial loss due to changes in equity prices, benchmark rates, credit spreads, foreign-exchange rates, commodity prices, and other indicators whose values are set in a public market.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED) 44.6 44.7 Operational risk The Bank’s Operational Risk Management (“ORM”) Framework sets out the governance and oversight structure, roles and relationships of the three lines of defense mechanism as well as the high level principles and methodologies for operational risk identification, assessment, control and monitoring. The framework recognises the relationships between operational risk and other risk types such as strategic, credit, market and reputation risks; and is cascaded to also govern the management of operational risk sub-types i.e. legal and compliance risk, Shariah non-compliance risk, Information Technology risk and outsourcing risk. The Bank has no appetite for losses arising from inadequate internal controls, systems, and processes; which can be elaborated as zero appetite for: • Failure to maintain a sound and proportionate system of internal controls to manage the expected operational risk losses and avoid the unexpected operational risk losses; • •Failure to comply with Shariah rules and parameters as set out by the Shariah Committee (“SC”) and/or the Shariah Advisory Council of Bank Negara Malaysia. Regulatory censures, fines or prosecution relating to the laws and regulations applicable to the Bank; and The Bank continuously monitors its operational risk exposure to ensure the level of exposure is within the acceptable tolerance. This is conducted by means of the established governance and oversight structure as well as through the day-to-day operational risk management processes. ORM processes are undertaken through the implementation of tools such as Risk and Control Self-Assessment (“RCSA”), Key Risk Indicator (“KRI”) and Loss Event Data (“LED”) collection. RCSA is a tool used to identify and assess the risks in key business processes, evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and provide the basis for determining risk responses/strategies in pursuing business objectives. KRI provides early warning signal of any increase in risk exposure and/or occurrence of control failures. To support operational risk analytics, the Bank collects LED based on BNM’s Operational Risk Integrated Online Network (“ORION”) requirements. To improve its operational resilience, the Bank has revamped its Business Continuity Management (“BCM”) framework and processes by streamlining the governance structure and response matrix based on severity of disruption; namely code Amber, Red and Black. Code Amber incidents are isolated disruption affecting only a particular business/activity which shall be managed by the respective business involved. The entire crisis management hierarchy headed by Managing Director/President shall be activated under Code Black, which is a full-on crisis that could potentially affect the going concern of the Bank. To ensure effectiveness of the business continuity plans and to be in line with regulatory requirements, regular exercises, disaster simulations and recovery drills are conducted throughout the year. 315 for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 44. The Bank defines operational risk as the risk of loss or non-achievement of business objectives due to inadequate or failed internal processes, people and system, or from external events. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) Capital management The objective of capital management is to maintain a strong capital position to support business growth, to maintain investors, depositors, customers and market confidence and to provide cushion for any potential losses. In line with this objective, the Bank manages its capital actively and ensures that the capital adequacy ratios which take into account the risk profile of the Bank, are above the regulatory minimum requirement. Capital adequacy and the use of regulatory capital are monitored monthly by the Bank’s management, employing techniques based on the Capital Framework for Development Financial Institutions by Bank Negara Malaysia. The required information is filed with Bank Negara Malaysia on a monthly basis. The Bank maintains a ratio of total regulatory capital to its risk-weighted assets above a minimum level agreed with Bank Negara Malaysia which takes into account the risk profile of the Bank. The regulatory capital requirements are strictly observed when managing economic capital. The Bank’s regulatory capital comprises two tiers: (i) (ii) Tier 2 capital: subordinated sukuk, collective impairment allowances on non-impaired financing and regulatory reserve. Tier 1 capital: share capital, statutory reserve, capital reserve and retained profits; and Banking operations are categorised as either trading book or banking book, and risk-weighted assets are determined according to specified requirements that seek to reflect the varying levels of risk attached to assets and exposures not recognised in the statements of financial position. The Bank’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to ensure investors’, creditors’ and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on shareholders’ return is also recognised and the Bank recognises the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with greater gearing and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position. 44.7.1 Capital adequacy ratio The Bank is required to comply with the core capital ratio and risk-weighted capital adequacy ratio prescribed by Bank Negara Malaysia. The capital adequacy ratios of the Bank are computed in accordance with BNM’s Capital Framework for Development Financial Institutions (Capital Component and Risk-Weighted Asset). The Bank was in compliance with all prescribed capital ratios throughout the period.

The information presented herein represents the best estimates of fair values as at the end of the reporting period. Where available, quoted and observable market prices are used as the measure of fair values. Where such quoted and observable market prices are not available, fair values are estimated based on appropriate methodologies and assumptions on risk characteristics of various financial instruments, discount rates, estimates of future cash flows and other factors. Changes in the uncertainties and assumptions could materially affect these estimates and the resulting fair value estimates. Fair value information for non-financial assets and liabilities is excluded as they do not fall within the scope of MFRS 132, Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation which requires the fair value information to be disclosed. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 45.1 Valuation of financial instruments The Group and the Bank measure fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. (i) (ii) Level 2: Valuation techniques based on observable inputs, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using: quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data. Level 1: Quoted market price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument. (iii)Level 3: Valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs. This category includes all instruments where the valuation technique includes inputs not based on observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument’s valuation. This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments where significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments. Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices. For all other financial instruments, the Group and the Bank determine fair values using valuation techniques. There were no financial liabilities of the Group and the Bank at the end of the reporting period that were measured at fair value. 319 for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 45.

FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) 45. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) 45.3 45.3 Valuation of financial instruments not carried at fair value (but fair value disclosures are required) (continued) The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values of the following classes of financial instruments: 45.3.1 Cash and short-term funds The carrying amounts of cash and short-term funds approximate fair values due to the relatively short maturity of the financial instruments. This is similar to deposits and placements with financial institutions maturing within one month that have relatively short maturity period. 45.3.2 Deposits and placements with financial institutions The fair values of deposits and placements with financial institutions are not materially sensitive to changes in market profit rate because of their limited term to maturity. FINANCIAL STATEMENT Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021 (Continued) 45.3.3 Financial investments at amortised cost Financial investments at amortised are carried at amortised cost at the end of the reporting period. Fair values for these financial instruments are estimated based on broker quotes from Bond Pricing Agency Malaysia. 45.3.4 Financing and advances Financing and advances are carried at amortised cost at the end of the reporting period. Fair valuation of these financial instruments are estimated based on discounted payment to be received in the future using effective profit rate offered for similar financing at the reporting date. 45.3.5 Trade and other receivables  The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables reported in the statements of financial position approximate their fair values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments. 45.3.6 Deposits from customers The fair values of deposits payable on demand (demand and savings deposits), or deposits with remaining maturity of less than one year are estimated to approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values of deposits with remaining maturities of more than one year are estimated using discounted cash flows based on effective profit rates for similar deposits from customers at the reporting date. However, since all deposits received can be classified as Islamic deposits, their fair values are deemed to approximate their carrying amounts as profit rates are determined at the end of the maturity period based on the sharing of profits generated from investments of the deposits. 331 Valuation of financial instruments not carried at fair value (but fair value disclosures are required) (continued) 45.3.7 Deposits and placements from banks and financial institutions The fair values of these financial instruments with remaining maturity of less than one year approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of the financial instruments. 45.3.8 Recourse obligations on financing sold to Cagamas The fair values for recourse obligations sold to Cagamas that have remaining maturity of less than one year are estimated to approximate their carrying amounts. For remaining maturity of more than one year, they are estimated using discounted cash flows based on prevailing Cagamas rates at the reporting date. 45.3.9 Debt securities issued Debt securities issued are measured at amortised cost at the end of the reporting period. The fair value of the securities are derived by referring to the present value of the expected amount due in the future by applying the effective profit rate for the debt securities at the reporting date. 45.3.10 Trade and other liabilities  The carrying amounts of trade and other liabilities reported in the statements of financial position approximate their fair values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments.
