The Art of Values
Across countless artists and through the passage of

hundreds of years, the art of Calligraphy has been
respected and revered, particularly in Muslim cultures.
The aesthetic principles of Arabic calligraphy are
seen as a reflection of the beauty of the cultural
values of the Muslim world.
A closer look at calligraphy reveals that through the

representation of words or sentences in an aesthetically
appealing manner, the importance of the subject
matter is enhanced. This effect that calligraphy has
on words is a corollary to the way Meezan Bank
holds true to its Core Values. While words such as
Professionalism and Integrity may seem common-
place and basic, they hold paramount significance
for us because of the ideology behind each word
and the manner in which it defines the culture and
personality of Meezan Bank. Our focus on our
Core Values enhances their importance for us in the
same way as calligraphy enhances the importance
of its subject matter - and that is why we have chosen
to combine the two in a beautiful expression of
everything that Meezan Bank stands for.
Beginning with the word 'Meezan', which means

'balance', this Annual Report presents our core
values to you in Arabic calligraphy and also defines
our understanding of these principles.

Quaid’s Concept of
Islamic Banking
“I shall watch with keenness the work of your Research Organization in evolving
banking practices compatible with Islamic ideas of social and economic life. The
economic system of the West has created almost insoluble problems for humanity and
to many of us it appears that only a miracle can save it from disaster that is now facing
the world. It has failed to do justice between man and man to eradicate friction from
the international field. On the contrary, it was largely responsible for the two world
wars in the last half century. The Western world, in spite of its advantages of mechanisation
and industrial efficiency is today in a worse mess than ever before in history. The
adoption of Western economic theory and practice will not help us in achieving our
goal of creating a happy and contended people.
We must work our destiny in our own way and present to the world an economic system
based on true Islamic concept of equality of manhood and social justice. We will thereby
be fulfilling our mission as Muslims and giving to humanity the message of peace which
alone can save it and secure the welfare, happiness and prosperity of mankind.”
Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah

Founder of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan
On the occasion of the Opening Ceremony of The State Bank of Pakistan on July 1, 1948.
Shariah Compliance
The root word of is (wafq) which means 'according to'.
means conformity and accordance with Shariah.
Shariah-compliance is the core value which defines the very existence of Meezan Bank.
Since its very inception, the Bank has had an aim that is unified across all branches,
all business units and all services: absolute and unwavering adherence to the principles
of Shariah! It is this commitment that has enabled us to achieve the remarkable
successes that Meezan Bank is known for, Alhamdulillah. With a team of the most
capable and renowned Shariah scholars comprising our Shariah Board, we are able
to not just deliver a Riba-free banking experience to our customers, but also develop
new and innovative banking products that are designed to delight our customers,
whilst addressing their needs - all the while staying within the bounds of Shariah.
Integrity
means honesty and truth. It also means integrity and reliability.
The single most important quality one can ever develop is integrity. Having integrity
means being totally honest and truthful in every element of your existence.
Integrity is the foundation of one's character and is manifested in one's adherence
to the values that one believes in. Only the people or organizations that show
integrity can gain the trust of and become role models for others. It is for this reason
that at Meezan Bank, integrity is valued so highly - not just in terms of following the
dictates of Shariah under all circumstances, but also in all our dealings and transactions
with our partners, our customers and our stakeholders. As a core value, integrity
ensures unwavering faith in an institution.
Professionalism
means professionalism or to adopt a profession.
It is our firm belief that as the Premier Islamic bank, it is our absolute professionalism
which gives us an edge in our industry. Our stakeholders want to see a bank that
supports its customers whilst doing business responsibly. Our customers want to see
a bank that looks after their interests while maintaining its integrity. Individuals and
businesses look to us for advice, counting on us to guide them in the correct direction.
At the center of all of these expectations is the professionalism that augments our
competence. The more professional we are, the closer we get to our Vision.
Innovation
The original meaning of is ‘to create from nothing'; it is also used for innovation.
Innovation lies at the heart of all human development. It entails constant nurturing
of the commitment to evolve and improve with changing times and ensuring that the
products and services being provided by an organization live up to the dynamic
expectations of its customers. Innovation comes from not just storing knowledge, but
creating it. Being the first Islamic bank of Pakistan, innovation is a key core value for
Meezan Bank. Being at the helm of Islamic banking in Pakistan and constantly developing
new products and services for its customers, Meezan Bank continuously works
towards the preservation of this value.
Service Excellence
The word is derived from husn ( ) which means beauty.
means betterment and enhancement.
Excellence is what differentiates one from his peers. When an organization as a whole
aims for excellence, its performance differentiates it from its industry. Being part of
a service industry, financial institutions around the world offer similar products,
competing with each other on the basis of the experience delivered to their customers.
At Meezan Bank, we harbor an unwavering determination to excel in customer
satisfaction and with Service Excellence as a core value, we imbibe this determination
in every member of the Meezan family.
Social Responsibility
The root word of is which means to ask or demand.
means collective and social responsibility, burden and liability.
Perhaps the most important core value in terms of society, social responsibility
is an obligation of any entity to the landscape in which it exists. For us at Meezan
Bank, social responsibility goes beyond the act of giving back to the society. Adopting
social responsibility as a core value means truly developing our business in a manner
that is not just compliant with the needs of society but also ensures that no harm
comes to society as a result of our business decisions. As an Islamic bank, the very
act of our existence aims to benefit the people at large by enabling them to have a
Shariah-compliant means of transacting their banking needs. In addition to this, as
we move ahead, we continue our contributions towards making the world a
better place.

products, services and network in the international market
so as to make other people benefit from Islamic banking.
n The Bank's IT system must be strengthened to facilitate
internal as well as external customers. In this regard, asset
side product modules should be given immediate priority.
n With the expansion in size and reach, the Bank should
explore the possibility of offering unconventional Islamic
banking services which may include the development of
warehouses and showrooms for trading purpose.
n The Bank should focus on new innovations and explore
the possibility of entering into more specialized Shariah-
compliant financing modes such as Microfinance, Shariah-
compliant private equity and venture capital.
n Due care regarding the mindset and commitment towards
the cause of Islamic banking should be taken during the
process of hiring of new staff. Moreover, it is recommended
to increase the scope of Islamic banking knowledge

and Operations Managers to Area Managers, department

n The Bank should continue its policy of expansion to spread
Islamic banking and in this regard continue its focus on
employees' training related to Islamic banking products
and services offered by the Bank with specific focus on
front line staff.
Conclusion
As per the charter of the Bank, it is mandatory on the
management and employees to ensure application of Shariah
principles and guidelines issued by the Shariah Supervisory
Board and Shariah Advisor and to ensure Shariah-compliance
in all activities of the Bank. The prime responsibility for ensuring
Shariah-compliance of the Bank's operations thus lies with
the management.
Based on the extensive reviews of sample cases for each

class of transaction, related documentation, processes, profit
distribution mechanism for the depositors and management's
representation made in this regard, in our opinion, the affairs,
activities and transactions, performed by the Bank during the
year comply with the rules & principles of Islamic Shariah in
light of the guidelines and directives given by the Shariah
Supervisory Board, Shariah Advisor of Meezan Bank and
SBP guidelines related to Shariah-compliance. The non-
compliant income identified during the review is being
transferred to the Charity Account.
May Allah bless us with the best Tawfeeq to accomplish His

cherished tasks, make us successful in this world and in the
Hereafter, and forgive our mistakes.
Wassalam Alaikum Wa Rahmat Allah Wa Barakatuh.

Statement of Internal Controls
The statement is presented to comply with the requirement of the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) circular no. BSD 7 dated
May 27, 2004 “Guidelines on Internal Controls” and SBP's OSED Circular No.01 of 2014 dated February 07, 2014
“Instructions on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (ICFR)”.
The management of the Bank is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate and effective system of internal
controls which has the main objectives of ensuring effectiveness and efficiency of operations, reliability of financial reporting,
safeguarding of assets and compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
The control activities are being closely monitored across the Bank through Compliance, Shariah and Internal Audit departments,
which covers all banking activities in general and key risk areas in particular. In addition to performing the above responsibility,
the Board of Directors has also formed an Audit Committee which has direct oversight responsibility to ensure the independence
of the internal and external audit function. The Audit Committee meets at least once every quarter to discuss the scope and
results of the work performed by the Compliance, Shariah and Internal Audit departments. The Audit Committee also meets
with external auditors prior to approval of half-yearly and annual results of the Bank.
Based on observation and weaknesses found and identified by the auditors both internal and external and the Compliance
and Shariah audit teams, improvements are brought about by the management in internal controls to ensure non-recurrence
of those exceptions and elimination of such weaknesses to the maximum possible level.
While the Internal Controls System is effectively implemented and monitored, there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness
of any system, including the possibility of human error or system failure and circumvention and overriding of controls.
Accordingly even an effective internal control system can provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that the system's
objective will be achieved.
The Bank has successfully completed the stages of its ICFR program and submitted the Long Form Report to SBP on
January 31, 2013. During the year 2013, the Bank also worked on the findings and recommendations of the Long Form
Report and implemented them. Post December 31, 2013, SBP has issued OSED Circular No.1 of 2014 dated
February 7, 2014. Accordingly the Bank shall also comply with the requirements of the said circular.
Besides this, the Bank is continuing its comprehensive Internal Control Program and shall endeavor to keep updating and
improving its system of Internal Controls.
Based on the above, the Board of Directors also endorses the management's evaluation of Internal Controls.
On behalf of the Board.

Companies Ordinance, 1984, and its shares are quoted on the Karachi Stock Exchange. The Bank was registered as an ‘Investment
Finance Company’ on August 8, 1997, and carried on the business of investment banking as permitted under SRO 585(I)/87 dated
July 13, 1987, in accordance and in conformity with the principles of Islamic Shariah. A ‘Certificate of Commencement of Business'

1.2 The Bank was granted a ‘Scheduled Islamic Commercial Bank’ license on January 31, 2002 and formally commenced operations
as a Scheduled Islamic Commercial Bank with effect from March 20, 2002, on receiving notification in this regard from the State
Bank of Pakistan (the SBP) under section 37 of the State Bank of Pakistan Act, 1956. Currently, the Bank is engaged in corporate,
commercial, consumer, investment and retail banking activities.
1.3 The Bank was operating through three hundred and fifty one branches as at December 31, 2013 (2012: three hundred and ten
branches). Its registered office is at Meezan House, C - 25, Estate Avenue, SITE, Karachi, Pakistan.
1.4 The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) vide letter EMD/233/001/2002-1339 dated March 25, 2013
has granted exemption to the Bank from the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiary company
namely Al-Meezan Investment Management Limited for the year ended December 31, 2013, subject to disclosure of certain
information in the financial statements of the Bank. The disclosures required by the SECP are given in note 10.9 to these financial
statements.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Bank provides Islamic financing and related assets mainly through Murabaha, Istisna, Tijarah, Ijarah, Diminishing Musharakah, Running
Musharakah, Bai Muajjal, Musawammah and Export Refinance under Islamic Export Refinance Scheme and Service Ijarah as briefly explained
in note 6.3.
The purchases and sales arising under these arrangements are not reflected in these financial statements as such but are restricted to the amount
of facility actually utilised and the appropriate portion of profit thereon. The income on such financings is recognised in accordance with the
principles of Islamic Shariah. However, income, if any, received which does not comply with the principles of Islamic Shariah is recognised
as charity payable if so directed by the Shariah Advisor of the Bank.
3. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
3.1 These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan.
Approved accounting standards comprise of such International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board and Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFASs) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Pakistan, as are notified under the Companies Ordinance, 1984, provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Ordinance,
1984, the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, and the directives issued by the SECP and the SBP. Wherever the requirements
of provisions and directives issued under the Companies Ordinance, 1984, the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, the IFAS
notified under the Companies Ordinances, 1984 and the directives issued by the SECP and the SBP differ from the requirements
of IFRS, the provisions of and the directives issued under the Companies Ordinance, 1984, the Banking Companies Ordinance,
1962, IFAS notified under the Companies Ordinance, 1984 and the directives issued by the SECP and the SBP shall prevail.
3.2 The SBP through its BSD Circular No. 10 dated August 26, 2002, has deferred the implementation of International Accounting
Standard (IAS) 39 - "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" and IAS 40 - "Investment Property" for Banking Companies
in Pakistan, till further instructions. Accordingly, the requirements of these Standards have not been considered in the preparation
of these financial statements. Further, the SECP has deferred the applicability of International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS)
7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures" through its S.R.O. 411(I)/2008 dated April 28, 2008. Accordingly, the requirements of
this standard have also not been considered in the preparation of these financial statements. However, investments have been
classified and valued in accordance with the requirements prescribed by the SBP through various circulars.
3.3 IFRS 8 "Operating Segments" is effective for the Bank’s accounting period beginning on or after January 1, 2009. All Banking
Companies in Pakistan are required to prepare their annual financial statements in line with the format prescribed under BSD
Circular No. 4 dated February 17, 2006, ‘Revised Forms of Annual Financial Statements’, effective from the accounting year
ended December 31, 2006. The management of the Bank believes that as the SBP has defined the segment categorisation in
the above mentioned circular, the SBP requirements prevail over the requirements specified in IFRS 8. Accordingly, segment
information disclosed in these financial statements is based on the requirements laid down by the SBP.
3.4 The SBP vide its BSD Circular No. 07 dated April 20, 2010 has clarified that for the purpose of preparation of financial statements
in accordance with International Accounting Standard - 1 (Revised), 'Presentation of Financial Statements', two statement approach
shall be adopted i.e. separate 'Profit and Loss Account' and 'Statement of Comprehensive Income' shall be presented, and Balance
Sheet shall be renamed as 'Statement of Financial Position'. Furthermore, only the surplus / (deficit) on revaluation of available
for sale (AFS) securities, may be included in the 'Statement of Comprehensive Income'. However, it should continue to be shown
separately in the Statement of Financial Position below equity. Accordingly, the above requirements have been adopted in the
preparation of these financial statements.

3.5 Changes in accounting policies
3.5.1 IAS 1, 'Financial statement presentation' has been amended effective January 1, 2013. The main change resulting from
these amendments is a requirement for entities to group items presented in 'Other Comprehensive Income' (OCI) on the basis
of whether they are potentially reclassifiable to the profit or loss subsequently (reclassification adjustments). The specified
change has been made in the statement of comprehensive income for the year.
3.5.2 IAS 19 (revised) 'Employee benefits' which became effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013
amends accounting for employee benefits. The standard requires immediate recognition of past service cost and also replaces
the interest cost on the defined benefit obligation and the expected return on plan assets with a net interest cost based on
the net defined benefit asset or liability and the discount rate, measured at the beginning of the year.
Further, a new term "remeasurements" has been introduced. This is made up of actuarial gains and losses and the difference
between actual investment returns and the return implied by the net interest cost. The standard requires "remeasurements" to
be recognised in the Statement of Financial Position immediately, with a charge or credit to Other Comprehensive Income
in the periods in which they occur.
During the year the Bank has changed its accounting policy to comply with the changes made in IAS 19. As per the previous
policy actuarial gains and losses were recognised in the profit and loss account over the future expected average remaining
working lives of the employees to the extent of the greater of 10% of the present value of defined benefit obligation at that
date and 10% of the fair value of plan assets at that date.
The change in accounting policy has been accounted for retrospectively in accordance with the requirements of IAS 8,
'Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors' and comparative figures have been restated.
The Bank's financial statements are affected only by the 'remeasurements' relating to prior years. The effects for the current
and prior year have been summarised below:

2013 2012 2011

Increase / (decrease) in unappropriated profit
- Impact on reported retained earnings for 2011 - - (4,785)

- Impact for the year (38,157) 16,685 -
The Bank had not recognised any amounts in respect of remeasurements in the profit and loss accounts for the years ended
December 31, 2011 and 2012. Therefore, there is no impact of this change on the profit after taxation and earnings per
share for those years. The change in policy also did not have any impact on the profit after taxation and earnings per share
for the current year. There is no impact of this change on the cash flow statement for the current or prior year.
The Bank's policy for Staff Retirement Benefits (note 6.11) and disclosure relating to Defined Benefit Plan (note 33) have
been amended to comply with the requirement of IAS 19 (revised).
3.6 Other standards, interpretations and amendments to published approved accounting standards that are effective in the
current year
There are certain other new and amended standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the Bank's accounting periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2013 but are considered not be to relevant or to have any significant effect on the Bank's
operations and are, therefore, not disclosed in these financial statements.
3.7 Standards, interpretations and amendments to published approved accounting standards that are not yet effective:
3.7.1 The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) has notified Islamic Financial Accounting Standard (IFAS)
3, 'Profit and Loss Sharing on Deposits' issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan. IFAS 3 shall be
followed with effect from the financial periods beginning after January 1, 2014 in respect of accounting for transactions
relating to 'Profit and Loss Sharing on Deposits' as defined by the said standard. The standard would result in certain
new disclosures in the financial statements of the Bank.
3.7.2 IFRS 10, 'Consolidated financial statements’, builds on existing principles by identifying the concept of control as the
determining factor in whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of the parent
company. The standard provides additional guidance to assist where the determination of control is difficult to assess.
The amendments may impact the financial statements of the Bank which has not yet been quantified.

3.7.3 IFRS12, ‘Disclosures of interests in other entities’, includes the disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other
entities, including joint arrangements, associates, special purpose vehicles and other off balance sheet vehicles. The
amendments may impact the financial statements of the Bank which has not yet been quantified.
There are certain other new and amended standards, interpretations and amendments that are mandatory for the Bank's
accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014 but are considered not to be relevant or do not have any
significant effect on the Bank's operations and therefore not detailed in these financial statements.
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan requires the use of certain
critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Bank’s accounting policies.
The significant accounting areas where various assumptions and estimates are significant to the Bank financial statements or where judgment
was exercised in the application of the accounting policies are as follows:
(a) Classification of investments in accordance with the Bank's policy (notes 6.4 and 10).
(b) Provision against non-performing Islamic financing and related assets (notes 6.3.2 and 11).
(c) Impairment of investments in equity instruments of subsidiary, associates and non associate entities (notes 6.4.4, 6.4.5 and 10).
(d) Accounting for defined benefit plan (notes 6.11 and 33).
(e) Depreciation / amortisation of operating fixed assets (notes 6.5 and 12).
(f) Assumption and estimation in recognition of provision for taxation (current and prior years) and deferred taxation (notes 6.7, 13
and 29).
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future
events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
5. BASIS OF MEASUREMENT
5.1 These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except that certain investments and commitments
in respect of foreign exchange contracts have been marked to market and are carried at fair value in accordance with the
requirements of the SBP. In addition, obligation in respect of staff retirement benefit is carried at present value.
5.2 Functional and Presentation Currency
These financial statements have been presented in Pakistani Rupee, which is the Bank's functional and presentation currency.
5.3 Rounding off
Figures have been rounded off to the nearest thousand rupees unless otherwise stated.

by the Board of Directors of the Bank.

netted off against Islamic financing and related assets. Islamic financing and related assets are written off when there
are no realistic prospects of recovery.

6.3.3 Inventories

The net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost necessary
to make the sale.
Cost of inventories represents actual purchases made by the Bank / customers as an agent of the Bank for subsequent
sale.
6.4 Investments
6.4.1 Classification
The Bank classifies its investments as follows:
- Held for trading
These are investments which are either acquired for generating profits from short-term fluctuations in market prices or
are securities included in a portfolio for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit taking.
- Held to maturity
These are investments with fixed or determinable payments and maturity that the Bank has the positive intent and
ability to hold till maturity.
- Available for sale
These are investments, which do not fall under 'held for trading' or 'held to maturity' categories.
- Associates
Associates are all entities over which the Bank has significant influence but not control.
- Subsidiary
Subsidiary is an entity over which the Bank has control.
6.4.2 Regular way contracts

All purchases and sales of investments that require delivery within the time frame established by regulation or market
convention are recognised at the trade date, which is the date on which the Bank commits to purchase or sell the
investments.
6.4.3 Initial recognition and measurement
Investments other than those categorised as 'held for trading' are initially recognised at fair value which includes transaction
costs associated with the investments. Investments classified as 'held for trading' are initially recognised at fair value and
transaction costs are expensed in the profit and loss account.
6.4.4 Subsequent measurement
Subsequent to initial recognition investments are valued as follows:
- Held for trading
These are measured at subsequent reporting dates at fair value. Gains and losses on remeasurement are included
in the net profit and loss for the year.
- Held to maturity
These are measured at amortised cost using the effective profit rate method, less any impairment loss recognised to
reflect irrecoverable amount.
- Available for sale
In accordance with the requirements specified by the SBP, quoted securities other than those classified as 'held to
maturity' and 'investments in associates and subsidiary', are subsequently re-measured to market value. Unquoted
equity securities are valued at the lower of cost and break-up value. Break-up value of unquoted equity securities is
calculated with reference to the net assets of the investee company as per the latest available audited financial
statements. Investment in other unquoted securities are valued at cost less impairment losses, if any.
Surplus / deficit arising on revaluation of quoted securities which are classified as 'available for sale', is included
in the Statement of Comprehensive Income but is kept in a separate account which is shown in the Statement of
Financial Position below equity.
- Investments in associates and subsidiary
Investment in associates and subsidiary is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any.

6.4.5 Impairment
Available for sale and Held to maturity investments
Impairment loss in respect of investments classified as available for sale and held to maturity (except sukuk certificates) is
recognised based on management's assessment of objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events
that may have an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the investments. A significant or prolonged decline in fair
value of an equity investment below its cost is also considered an objective evidence of impairment. Provision for diminution
in the value of sukuk certificates is made as per the Prudential Regulations issued by the SBP. In case of impairment of
available for sale securities, the cumulative loss that has been recognised directly in surplus / (deficit) on revaluation of
securities on the statement of financial position below equity is removed therefrom and recognised in the profit and loss
account. For investments classified as held to maturity, the impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account.
Investment in associates and subsidiary
In respect of investment in associates and subsidiary, the Bank reviews their carrying values at each reporting date to
assess whether there is an indication of impairment.
Such indication may include significant and prolonged decline in the market value, significant changes with an adverse
impact on the entity, carrying amount of net assets in excess of market capitalisation etc. Management also takes into
account that these investments are held for long term and therefore considers decline of upto 40% in value (applying
significant decline criteria) and upto 12 months (for applying prolonged criteria) for the purposes of assessing significant
and prolonged decline for listed investments. However, any threshold should be justifiable in view of other factors present
for the entity. The amount of impairment loss would be determined based on the higher of value in use and fair value
less cost to sell. Impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account.
6.4.6 Cost of investment is determined on moving average basis.
6.5 Operating fixed assets
6.5.1 Tangible assets

and when incurred.
6.5.4 Depreciation / amortisation
Depreciation / amortisation is charged to the profit and loss account by applying the straight line method with the rates
specified in notes 12.2 and 12.4 whereby the depreciable value of an asset is written off over its estimated service life.
The Bank charges depreciation / amortisation from the month of acquisition and upto the month preceding the disposal.
6.5.5 Capital work-in-progress
Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
6.5.6 Useful lives and residual values
Useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each Statement of Financial Position date and adjusted if impact on
depreciation / amortisation is significant.
6.5.7 Impairment
The Bank assesses at each Statement of Financial Position date whether there is any indication that the operating fixed
assets may be impaired. If such indication exists, the carrying amounts of such assets are reviewed to assess whether
they are recorded in excess of their recoverable amounts. Where carrying values exceed the respective recoverable
amounts, assets are written down to their recoverable amounts and the resulting impairment charge is recognised in the
profit and loss account.
6.6 Ijarah Assets (IFAS 2)
Ijarah assets are stated at cost less depreciation and are disclosed as part of 'Islamic financing and related assets'. The rental
received / receivable on Ijarah under Islamic Financial Accounting Standard - 2 Ijarah (IFAS 2) are recorded as income / revenue.

in respect of previous years including those arising from assessments finalised during the year and are separately disclosed.
Deferred
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised
for the following temporary differences; initial recognition of goodwill, initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction
that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profits and differences relating to investments
in subsidiaries to the extent that they probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based
on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which
the assets can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that the related tax benefits will be realised.

'Savings deposits' and 'Fixed deposits'. No profit or loss is passed on to current account depositors.
Profits realised in investment pools are distributed in pre-agreed profit sharing ratio. Rab-ul-Maal share is distributed among
depositors according to weightages assigned at the inception of profit calculation period. Mudarib can distribute its share of
profit to Rab-ul-Maal upto a maximum of 50% of their profit.
Profits are distributed from the pool such that the depositors (remunerative) only bear the risk of assets in the pool during the profit
calculation period. In case of loss in a pool during the profit calculation period, the loss is distributed among the depositors
(remunerative) according to their ratio of Investments.
Asset pools are created at the Bank’s discretion and the Bank can add, amend, transfer an asset to any other pool in the interests
of the deposit holders.
6.10 Pool Management
The Bank operates general and specific pools for deposits and inter-bank funds accepted / acquired under Modaraba and
Musharakah modes.

as Manager (Mudarib) and invests the funds in the Shariah Compliant modes of financings, investments and placements. When
utilising investing funds, the Bank prioritizes the funds received from depositors over the funds generated from own sources.
Specific pools are operated for funds acquired / accepted from the State Bank of Pakistan and other banks for Islamic Export
Refinance to Bank's customers and liquidity management respectively under the Musharakah / Modaraba modes.

The profit of each deposit pool is calculated on all the remunerative assets booked by utilising the funds from the pool after
deduction of expenses directly incurred in earning the income of such pool, if any. The directly related costs comprise of depreciation
on ijarah assets, takaful premium, documentation charges etc. No general or administrative nature of expense is charged to pools.
No provisions against any non-performing asset of the pool is passed on to the pool except on the actual loss / write-off of such
non-performing asset. The profit of the pool is shared between equity and other members of the pool on the basis of Musharakah
at gross level (before charging of mudarib fee) as per the investment ratio of the equity. The profit of the pool is shared among
the members of the pool on pre-defined mechanism based on the weightages announced before the profit calculation period
after charging of mudarib fee.
The deposits and funds accepted under the above mentioned pools are provided to diversified sectors and avenues of the
economy / business as mentioned in the note 40.1.1.1 and are also invested in Government of Pakistan backed Ijarah Sukuks.
Labbaik financing, Staff loans, Bai-salam financing are exclusively financed from the equity pool. Musharakah investments from
the State Bank of Pakistan under Islamic Export Refinance are channelled towards the export sector of the economy.
The risk characteristic of each pool mainly depends on the assets and liability profile of each pool.

10.2.1 These include 22,000 certificates of WAPDA I Sukuk (having a face value of Rs. 110 million) purchased by the Bank through
a market based transaction for a cash consideration of Rs.110.346 million. These certificates were available in the seller’s
CDC account and on completion of the transaction were transferred to the Bank’s CDC account. The periodic Ijarah rentals
due since October 22, 2009 were not paid to the Bank as there were certain discrepancies in the Central Depository
Register. The Bank, through a legal notice, has clarified its position that the Bank had purchased the aforesaid Sukuk Certificates
from the market at a consideration when these Sukuks were already entered in the Central Depository Register of the seller's
account.
The suit is currently pending in the Sindh High Court. However, the Bank, on a prudent basis, has recognised full provision
against these Sukuks.

11.9.1 The Bank maintains general reserve (provision) in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Prudential Regulations for
Consumer Financing and Prudential Regulations for Small and Medium Enterprise Financing issued by the SBP.
During the year, SBP has issued Prudential Regulations (PRs) for Small and Medium Enterprises. The PRs require the Bank to maintain
a general provision against financings to Small Enterprises. The revised guidelines have also changed the classification criteria
whereby all Small Enterprise (SE) financings overdue by 90 days, 180 days, 365 days and 18 months are now required to be
classified as Other Assests Especially Mentioned (OAEM), substandard, doubtful and loss respectively. Previously these loans were
classified as substandard, doubtfull and loss based on different prescribed ageing criteria. The revised guidelines specify that
provision should be made in the financial statements equal to 10 percent, 25 percent, 50 percent and 100 percent, in respect
of overdue SE financings classified as OAEM, substandard, doubtful and loss respectively.
Had the provision been determined in accordance with the previous guidelines of the SBP, the specific provision would have been
higher by Rs. 0.72 million and general provision would have been lower by Rs. 4.34 million and consequently profit before taxation
and financing would have been higher by Rs. 3.62 million.
In addition, the Bank has also maintained a general provision of Rs. 1,125 million (2012: Rs. 1,125 million) against financings
made on prudent basis, in view of the prevailing economic conditions. This general provision is in addition to the requirements of
the Prudential Regulations.
11.9.2 In accordance with BSD Circular No. 2 dated January 27, 2009 issued by the SBP, the Bank has availed the benefit of Forced
Sales Value (FSV) of collaterals against the non-performing financings. The accumulated benefit availed as at December 31, 2013
amounts to Rs. 49 million (2012: Rs. 79 million). The additional profit arising from availing the FSV benefit - net of tax as at
December 31, 2013 amounts to Rs. 31.85 million (2012: Rs. 51.35 million). The increase in profit, due to availing of the benefit,
is not available for distribution of cash and stock dividend to share holders.

33.13 Funding levels are monitored on an annual basis and are based on actuarial recommendations. Contribution for the next year works out to
Rs. 110.422 million as per the actuarial valuation report of the Bank as of December 31, 2013.
33.14 Through its defined benefit gratuity plan, the Fund is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:
Asset volatility The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to corporate bond yields;
if plan assets underperform this yield, this will create a deficit. The Fund believes that due to long -
term nature of the plan liabilities and the strength of the Bank's support, current investment strategy
manages this risk adequately.
Changes in bond yields A decrease in corporate bond yields will increase plan liabilities, although this will be partially
offset by an increase in the value of the plans' sukuk holdings.
Inflation risk The majority of the plans' benefit obligations are linked to inflation, and higher inflation will lead
to higher liabilities. However plan assets are variable rate instruments and are re -priced at regular
intervals to offset inflationary impacts.
Life expectancy/Withdrawal The majority of the plans' obligations are to provide benefits on severance with the Bank on
rate achieving retirement. Any change in life expectancy / withdrawal rate would impact plan liabilities.
33.15 The disclosure made in notes 33.1 to 33.13 are based on the information included in the actuarial valuation report of the Bank as
of December 31, 2013.
34. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN
The Bank also operates a recognised contributory provident fund for all permanent employees. Equal monthly contributions are made, both by

rupees in a financial year.

use of the Bank's cars.
35.3 In addition to above, all Executives, including the President & Chief Executive Officer and Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Bank
are also entitled to bonus which is disclosed in note 27.4 to these financial statements. Previously, this was shown as part of amounts
disclosed in compensation above.
36. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
36.1 The fair value of investments in listed securities, except investments categorised as ‘held to maturity’, investments in subsidiaries and
associates is based on quoted market prices. The value of unquoted equity investments is reduced, if required, on the basis of break-
up value of those investments based on the latest available audited financial statements.
Fair value of Islamic financing and related assets, other assets, other liabilities and fixed term deposits and other accounts cannot be
calculated with sufficient reliability due to absence of current and active market for such assets and liabilities and reliable data regarding
market rates for similar instruments. The provision for impairment of Islamic financing and related assets has been calculated in
accordance with the Bank’s accounting policy as stated in note 6.3.2.
In the opinion of the management, the fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities are not significantly different from
their carrying values since these assets and liabilities are short term in nature or in the case of financings and deposits are frequently
repriced.

39. CAPITAL ASSESSMENT AND ADEQUACY BASEL SPECIFIC
The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has introduced new guidelines with respect to disclosure of capital adequacy related information in the
financial statements of banks vide its communication dated February 4, 2014. These guidelines are based on the requirements of Basel III
which were introduced earlier by the SBP in August 2013 for implementation by banks in Pakistan. The SBP has specified a transitional period
till 2018 for implementation of Basel III. The disclosures below have been prepared on the basis of these new guidelines. The comparative
information is as per Basel II requirements which were applicable last year.

39.1 Capital structure
Under Basel III framework, Bank's regulatory capital has been analysed into two tiers as follows:
- Tier 1 capital (going concern capital) which is sub divided into:
a) Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1), which includes fully paid up capital, reserve for bonus issue, general reserves and un-appropriated
profits (net of losses), etc after deductions for investments in the equity of subsidiary companies engaged in banking and financial
activities ( to the extent of 50%), reciprocal crossholdings and deficit on revaluation of available for sale investments and deduction
for book value of intangibles.
b) Additional Tier 1 capital (AT1), which includes instruments issued by the Bank which meet the specified criteria after deduction
of remaining 50% investment in the equity of subsidiary companies engaged in banking and financial activities and other specified
deductions.
Presently the Bank does not have any AT1 capital.
- Tier II capital, which includes general provisions for loan losses (upto a maximum of 1.25% of credit risk weighted assets), reserves
on revaluation of fixed assets and available for sale investments after deduction of deficit on available for sale investments (upto
a maximum of 45%).
Banking operations are categorized in either the trading book or the banking book and risk weighted assets are determined
according to the specified requirements that seek to reflect the varying levels of risk attached to assets and off balance sheet
exposures.
The required capital adequacy ratio is achieved by the Bank through:
(a) Adequate level of paid up capital;

(b) Adequate risk profile of asset mix;
(c) Ensuring better recovery management; and
(d) Maintaining acceptable profit margins.
39.2 Capital adequacy ratio
The capital to risk weighted assets ratio, calculated in accordance with the SBP guidelines on capital adequacy, under Basel III and
Pre-Basel III treatment using Standardized Approach for Credit and Market Risk and Basic Indicator Approach for Operational Risk is
presented below:

39.3 Capital Adequacy
The main objective of the capital management is to improve the financial position and strengthen the statement of financial position of
the Bank to support the growth in business, provide protection to depositors and enhance shareholders' value.
The Bank’s Board and the management is committed to maintaining a sound balance between depositors' liability and shareholders'
funds so that optimal capital / debt ratio is maintained. The optimal capital / debt ratio will provide reasonable assurance to depositor's
about safety and security of their funds and at the same time provide impetus to the management to invest their depositors’ funds into
profitable ventures without compromising the risk profile of the Bank. The capital requirement of the Bank has been determined based
on the projected growth plan to be achieved in the next 3 to 5 years in all areas of business operations. Further, it also takes into
account a road map for capital enhancement as directed by the State Bank of Pakistan vide its various circulars issued from time to
time.
The Bank prepares Annual Budget and Three Year Plan for purpose of the growth map and future direction. Bottom up approach is
used to prepare annual budget and detailed deliberations are held while preparing Three Year Plan. The growth prospects takes into
consideration prevailing economic and political factors in Pakistan and abroad.
In implementing current capital requirements the State Bank of Pakistan requires banks to maintain minimum Capital Adequacy Ratio
(CAR) of 10% as of December 31, 2013 whereas CAR stood at 12.48% at the year ended December 31, 2013.
The Bank calculates capital adequacy ratio for credit risk, market risk and operational risk based upon requirements under Basel Accord
as per guidelines issued by the State Bank of Pakistan from time to time in this regard.
Major credit risk in respect of on and off-balance sheet exposures are mainly claims on banks, corporates, retail customers, residential
mortgages and unquoted associated undertakings and Sukuks. Market risk exposures are mainly in mutual funds, equity and foreign
exchange positions. The Bank’s potential risk exposures shall remain in these exposure types.
Sensitivity and stress testing of the Bank under different risk factors namely yield rate, non-performing financings and foreign exchange
rate are analysed with reference to the capital adequacy so as to determine the resilience of the Bank.
The Bank has taken into account credit risk, market risk and operational risk when planning its assets.

a group level as well.
40. RISK MANAGEMENT
The wide variety of the Bank’s business activities require the Bank to identify, assess, measure, aggregate and manage risks effectively which are constantly
evolving as the business activities expand in response to the Bank's strategy and growth. The Bank manages the risk through a framework of risk management
encompassing policies and procedures, organisational structures, risk measurement and monitoring processes and techniques that are closely aligned
with business activities of the Bank.

Risk management principles
- The Board of Directors (the Board) provides overall risk management supervision. The Board Risk Management Committee regularly reviews the
Bank’s risk profile.
- The Bank has set up objectives and policies to manage the risks that arise in connection with the Bank’s activities. The risk management framework
and policies of the Bank are guided by specific objectives to ensure that comprehensive and adequate risk management tools and techniques
are established to mitigate the salient risk elements in the operations of the Bank.
- The establishment of the overall financial risk management objectives is consistent and in tandem with the strategy to create and enhance
shareholders’ value, whilst guided by a prudent risk management framework.
- The structure of risk management function is closely aligned with the organisational structure of the Bank.
- The risk management function is independent of the Bank’s operations.
Risk management organisation
The Risk Management Committee comprises of two non-executive directors and one executive director. One of the non-executive directors of the Bank
chairs the Risk Management Committee.
Specialized Committees comprising of Senior Management team members perform their functions in line with the strategic direction set by the Board while
ensuring that there is optimal balance between risk reward trade-off. The Committees include:
Name of the sub-committee Chaired by
Credit Committee President & CEO
Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) President & CEO
Internal Controls and Operational Risk Management Committee (ICORC) Deputy Chief Executive Officer
The Credit Committee is responsible for reviewing and granting approval of financing proposals of Corporate, Commercial, SME and Investment Banking
clients. It also supports and guides front lines in managing their businesses while ensuring compliance with applicable policies as approved by the Board
of Directors of the Bank. The Committee is also responsible to optimize risk on the Bank's financing portfolio, ensuring credit quality as per the Bank's risk
asset acceptance criteria, managing the tenor of assets, maintaining adequate industry diversification and minimizing bad debts / loss provisioning. For
this purpose it has formulated financing policy so as to effectively monitor the risk profile of the Bank’s asset portfolio and to ensure strict adherence to the
SBP’s Prudential Regulations, the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, and any other regulatory requirement.
ALCO is responsible for reviewing the Asset and Liability structure of the Bank, monitoring the liquidity situation and overall changing market scenario. Market
and Liquidity risks are examined based on stress testing exercises and gap analysis. ALCO is also responsible for monitoring policy rate movements and taking
necessary steps across various products to ensure that the overall profitability of the Bank is maximized without compromising on risk appetite. ALCO also
ensures that the Banks’ overall operations are fully compliant with regulatory framework for the business as provided by the State Bank of Pakistan.
The ICORC is responsible for reviewing adequacy of controls and systems to meet the regulatory requirements and business plan of the Bank. The Committee
evaluates overall management information systems and guides / facilitates for their accuracy and standardisation. The ICORC reviews reports on major
actual / attempted fraud, forgery and dacoity incidents and the steps taken to mitigate such incidents in future. The Committee ensures that policies and
procedures in all key risk areas of the banking business are in place. It deliberates on reports regarding deviations and lapses vis-à-vis internal and external
requirements. The ICORC also reviews reports on loss data and key risk indicators.
The Bank’s risk management, compliance, internal audit and legal departments support the risk management function. The role of the risk management
department is to assess, measure, identify risks and established risk mitigants through a detailed policy and monitoring framework. The compliance department
ensures that all the directives and guidelines issued by the SBP are being complied with in order to mitigate the compliance risk. The internal audit and BRR
department reviews the compliance of internal control procedures with internal and regulatery standards.
40.1 Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the potential that an obligor is either unwilling to perform on an obligation or its ability to perform such obligations is impaired
resulting in economic loss to the Bank. This credit risk arises mainly from both direct financing activities as well as contingent liabilities.
Credit risk management and structure
The Bank manages credit risk by effective credit appraisal mechanism, approving and reviewing authorities, limit structures, internal credit risk
rating system, collateral management and post disbursement monitoring so as to ensure prudent financing activities and sound financing portfolio
under the umbrella of a comprehensive Credit Policy approved by the Board of Directors. The Bank also ensures diversification of its portfolio
into different business segments, products and sectors. Further, to avoid risk concentration; counterparty limits, counterparty group limits and industry
concentration limits are also established, monitored and assessed in the light of changing counterparty and market conditions.
Watchlist procedure is also functioning which identifies financings with early warning indicators in respect of clients having the potential to
become non-performing. The risk management function also monitors the non-performing financing portfolio of the Bank and reports all significant
matters to the Risk Management Committee.
The Bank takes into account the risk mitigating effect of the eligible collaterals for the calculation of capital requirement for credit risk. Use of
Credit Risk Mitigation (CRM) resulted in the total credit risk weighted amount of Rs. 121,435.79 million (2012: Rs 99,377.04 million).
Thus, use of CRM resulted in capital adequacy ratio of the Bank of 12.47%.

40.1.2 Credit Risk - General Disclosures
The Bank has adopted Standardised Approach for calculation of capital charge against credit risk. Therefore, risk weights for the credit
risk related assets (on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet - market and non market related exposures) are assigned on the basis of
standardised approach.
The Bank is committed to further strengthen its risk management framework which will enable the Bank to move ahead for adopting
Foundation (IRB) approach of Basel II. Meanwhile, none of the Bank's assets class is subject to the Foundation IRB or advanced IRB
approaches.
40.1.2.1 Credit Risk: Disclosures for portfolio subject to the Standardised Approach
Under standardised approach the capital requirement is based on the credit rating assigned to the counterparties by the External
Credit Assessment Institutions (ECAIs) duly recognised by the SBP for capital adequacy purposes. In this connection, the Bank
utilises the credit ratings assigned by ECAIs and has recognised agencies which consists of PACRA (Pakistan Credit Rating
Agency) and JCR-VIS (Japan Credit Rating Company - Vital Information System) which are also recognised by the SBP.
In case of foreign currency exposures against banks, ratings assigned by S&P, Fitch and Moody’s have been applied. In case
of exposure against banks, some banks have multiple ratings but those ratings do not result in mapping with different risk weights.

Use of ECAI Ratings
The Bank prefers solicited ratings over unsolicited ratings at all times, owing to the greater degree of accuracy (in general) associated with solicited
ratings. Unsolicited ratings may only be used in cases where a solicited rating is not available.
Mapping to SBP Rating Grades
The alignment of the Alphanumerical scale of each agency used with risk buckets is as per instructions laid down by SBP under Basel II requirements.

40.1.2.3 Credit Risk: Disclosures with respect to Credit risk mitigation for Standardised approach and IRB
The Bank obtains capital relief for both its on-balance and off-balance sheet non-market related exposures by using simple approach for
credit risk mitigation (CRM). Off-balance sheet items under the simplified standardised approach are converted into credit exposure
equivalents through the use of credit conversion factors. Under the standardised approach the Bank has taken advantage of the cash
collaterals available with the Bank in the form of security deposits, cash margins, certificates of islamic investment, monthly modaraba
certificate and saving accounts.
Valuation and management of eligible collaterals for CRM is being done in accordance with the conditions laid down by the State Bank
of Pakistan. Eligible collaterals for CRM purposes do not expose the Bank to price risk as they are in the form of cash collaterals. Since
eligible collaterals for CRM purposes are all in the form of cash collaterals, they generally do not pose risk to the Bank in terms of change
in their valuation due to changes in the market condition.
The credit equivalent amount of an off-balance sheet market related foreign exchange contracts are determined by using the current
exposure (mark to market) method.
The Bank mainly takes the benefit of CRM against its claims on corporate and retail portfolio. Under the standardised approach for on-
balance sheet exposures, the corporate portfolio of Rs. 110,230.55 million is subject to the CRM of Rs. 517.678 million whereas a
claim on retail portfolio of Rs. 6,231.03 million is subject to CRM of Rs. 1,485.21 million. The total benefit of Rs. 2,002.89 million
was availed through CRM against total on-balance sheet exposure of Rs. 320,928.99 million.
Under off - balance sheet, non-market related exposures; the corporate portfolio of Rs. 71,421.032 million is subject to the CRM of Rs.
1,027.33 million whereas a claim on retail portfolio of Rs. 2,602.66 million is subject to CRM of Rs. 553.37 million. Total benefit of
Rs. 1,580.7 million was availed by the Bank through CRM against total off - balance sheet, non-market related exposure of Rs. 80,354.98
million.
Thus in the year 2013 total amount of cash collateral used for CRM purposes (for both on and off balance sheet items) was Rs. 3,583.59
million as against amount of Rs. 4,375 million in year 2012. The difference in the value of cash collateral is due to the changes in the
exposure amounts and resultant amount of cash collateral obtained.
40.1.2.4 Credit concentration risk
Credit concentration risk arises mainly due to concentration of exposures under various categories viz., industry, geography, and single
/ group borrower obligor. Within credit portfolio, as a prudential measure aimed at better risk management and avoidance of concentration
of risks, the SBP has prescribed regulatory limits on banks’ maximum exposure to single and group obligors. Within the SBP limits, the
Bank has further defined limits to avoid excessive concentration of portfolio.

40.2 Equity position in the banking and trading book
The Bank classifies and values its investment portfolio in accordance with the directives of SBP as stated in note 6.4 to these financial statements.
Trading book
Held for trading and available for sale securities with trading intent;
- They are marked to market daily;
- Any valuation difference is charged to the profit and loss account in case of held for trading securities and to equity in case of available for
sale securities.
Banking book
Assets outside trading book are part of the banking book. These may include assets classified as available for sale. The Bank does not have
any held to maturity investments as at December 31, 2013.
40.3 Market risk
The Bank is exposed to market risk which is the risk that the value of on and off balance sheet exposure of the Bank will be adversely affected
by movements in market rates or prices such as benchmark rates, profit rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices and market conditions resulting
in a loss to earnings and capital. The Market risk charge consists of two components. The general risk describes value changes due to general
market movements, while the specific risk has issuer related causes. The capital charge for market risk has been calculated by using Standardised
Approach.
The Bank applies Stress Testing and Value at Risk (VaR) techniques as risk management tools. Stress testing enables the Bank to estimate changes
in the value of the portfolio, if exposed to various risk factors. VaR quantifies the maximum loss that might arise due to change in risk factors, if
exposure remains unchanged for a given period of time.
40.3.1 Foreign exchange risk
The foreign exchange risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to the changes in foreign exchange rates.
The objectives of the foreign exchange risk management function is to minimise the adverse impact of foreign exchange assets and
liabilities mismatch and maximise the earnings.
The Bank does not take any currency exposure except to the extent of statutory net open position prescribed by the SBP. Foreign
exchange open and mismatch positions are controlled through close monitoring and are marked to market on a daily basis to contain
the foreign exchange forward exposures.

The analysis below represents the concentration of the Bank's foreign currency risk for on and off balance sheet financial instruments:

40.3.2 Equity position risk
Equity position risk in the trading book arises due to taking long positions in the equities and all instruments that exhibit market
behavior similar to equities.
Counter parties limits, as also fixed by the SBP, are considered to limit risk concentration. The Bank invests in those equities which
are Shariah compliant as advised by the Shariah advisor.
40.3.3 Yield / profit rate risk
Yield risk is the risk of decline in earnings due to adverse movement of the yield curve. Profit rate risk is the risk that the value of
the financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market profit rates. The Bank is exposed to profit rate risk as a result of
mismatches or gaps in the amounts of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments that mature or re-price in a given
period. The Bank reprices its financings as per their respective contracts.
The Bank estimates changes in the market value of equity due to changes in the yield rates on on-balance sheet positions and
their impact on capital adequacy ratio by conducting stress tests. It also assesses risk on earnings of the Bank by various shocks.

The Bank takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of market profit rates on both its fair value and cash flow
risks. Profit margins may increase as a result of such changes but may reduce to losses in the event that unexpected movements arise.
40.4 Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the potential for loss to the Bank arising from either its inability to meet its obligations or to fund increases in assets as they fall due
without incurring an unacceptable cost.
The Bank's Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) manages the liquidity position on a regular basis and is primarily responsible for the formulation of
the overall strategy and oversight of the asset liability function. ALCO monitors the maintenance of liquidity ratios, depositor's concentration both in
terms of the overall funding mix and avoidance of undue reliance on large individual deposits. Moreover, as core retail deposits form a considerable
part of the Bank's overall funding mix therefore significant importance is being given to the stability and growth of these deposits. The Board of
Directors has approved a comprehensive liquidity management policy which stipulates the early warning indicators of liquidity risk and maintenance
of various ratios.

Current and Saving deposits have been classified under maturity upto one month as these do not have any contractual maturity. Further, the Bank
estimates that these deposits are a core part of its liquid resources and will not fall below the current year's level.

40.5 Operational risk
The Bank uses Basic Indicator Approach (BIA) for assessing the capital charge for operational risk. Under BIA the capital charge
is calculated by multiplying average positive annual gross income of the Bank over past three years with 15% as per guidelines
issued by SBP under Basel II.
To reduce losses arising from operational risk, the Bank has strengthened its risk management framework by developing strategy
polices, guidelines and manuals. It also includes risk and control self assessment, key risk indicator, loss data managment, set up
of fraud and forgery management unit, defining responsibilities of individuals, enhancing security measures, improving efficiency
and effectiveness of operations, outsourcing and improving quality of human resources through trainings.
41. TRUST ACTIVITIES
The Bank commonly act as trustee and in other fiduciary capacities that result in the holding or placing of assets on behalf of individuals, trusts, retirement
benefit plans and other institutions including on behalf of certain related parties. These are not assets of the Bank and, therefore, are not included in
