Liquidity Management Strategy


Liquidity risk:
• Liquidity risk for insurers:
Risk of an actual or perceived shortfall of liquid assets to pay claims or operating expenses.
Risk of low investment yield related to liquidity issues, e.g.
– Investing too safely; maximizes liquidity but hurts performance.
– Having to get out of a position at an inopportune time and realize a loss (significant research
on “cost of distress” issues).
Impacts of liquidity issues
• Inability to pay claims on a timely basis can produce “run on bank” mentality
• Rating agencies rate willingness and ability to pay - Money invested in illiquid assets is heavily
discounted in the rating process. Downgrade=death.
• Poor investment performance related to liquidity issues can contribute to further problems
(particularly distressed selling)
Unique attributes of insurance industry:
Majority of cash obligations are estimates - not known in nominal or present value
• Analysis that reflects the uncertainty of obligations suggests a different position than a static
analysis would
• Liquidity management becomes important
Liabilities are sensitive to inflation
• Simultaneous impacts on assets and liabilities should be understood
• Forces that could result in increase of liabilities and decrease of assets at the same time impair
operating flexibility and can force a liquidity crunch
Underwriting cycle can produce fluctuating operating cash position
• Changing levels of internally generated cash may alter investment strategy and concerns about
liquidity
• Less concern when internally generated cash is readily available
Catastrophe exposure
• Must account for potential need for significant liquidity
Regulatory constraints on investing “creativity” (concern for policyholder welfare)
• Strategy must incorporate constraints by external parties
• Practically speaking, this results in a need to keep a safe liquidity posture
Asset management has established conventional wisdoms and risks of deviations
• Departures from traditional approaches often must be supported by strong evidence
Sometimes poorly institutionalized links between asset and liability side
• More dynamic links can be created
Enterprise Risk Management and Investment Philosophy
Asset Allocation Policy is the primary driver of total investment portfolio return variability and performance
over time
Liquidity Metrics must be incorporated with other total return measures
Active Risk Policy drives relative portfolio performance and significantly enhances performance over time
Manager Structure integrates asset allocation policy and active risk policy to avoid uncompensated risks
and capture active manager skill to enhance returns.
Active Manager Skill adds value over time.
An Enterprise Risk Management Approach is essential to enhance overall corporate financial performance.

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

Chairman's Review 2022


I am pleased to present to you the Thirty-First Annual Report of the Company for the year ended 31 December
2022.

Economic review:
Economic recovery from the pandemic continued in the first half of 2022 with real GDP growth of 5.97%
in FY2022. The economic rebound however, resulted in significant demand supply imbalances that were
exacerbated by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, elevating the global commodity prices, and fuelling inflation.
The catastrophic floods in the country in the second half of the year compounded the economic difficulties,
adding to the inflation woes.
The widening of the current account deficit driven by decline in remittances and increase in total imports
resulted in a rupee devaluation of 22% during 2022 in the interbank market. The annual inflation on year
on year basis increased to 24.5% in December 2022.
In response to weakening of macroeconomic indicators, the State Bank of Pakistan increased the policy rate
by 625 bps to a multi-decade high of 16%. Several measures such as imposition of regulatory duties and
tariffs were also taken to curtail imports of non-essential items. These policy changes in turn are likely to
limit the economic activity.
The stock market mirrored the economy and the KSE-100 fell 9% during the year. With rupee depreciation,
the index was down 29% in dollar terms.

Insurance Opportunity:
The Pakistani insurance market remains largely untapped with life insurance penetration (gross premium as
a % of GDP) of less than 1%. With 60% of its population under the age 25 years, and growing lower middle
class segment, Pakistan offers significant opportunities to the life insurance sector to tap the emerging
customer base through targeted offerings.
Driving the financial inclusion goals, the State Bank of Pakistan and Securities and Exchange Commission
of Pakistan has taken several initiatives to improve access of financial services, enable financial service players
and raise financial awareness in the masses. Forward looking regulatory and policy measures along with
increasing digital access of financial services, payment and communication platforms is likely to positively
contribute to the insurance landscape of the country over the next few years.
However, given the current high inflationary environment and economic uncertainty, the disposable income
for life insurance solutions is likely to be under stress, resulting in slowdown in uptake of insurance for new
customers, and impact on the persistency for the existing portfolio. This scenario is expected to persist during
2023.

Insurance and Takaful Industry:


The life insurance and family takaful industry of Pakistan comprises of ten players. Since its inception in 1992,
EFU Life has been at the forefront of the industry, driving its key developments. After a short period of
recovery from COVID 19, the growth trajectory of the life insurance industry has decelerated in 2022 due
to range of economic concerns mentioned earlier in the report. High inflation and economic uncertainty have
stressed insurance demand as consumer reprioritize spending habits. The life insurance industry's gross
premium in 2022 is expected to be greater than 245 billion. The outlook for the sector in the short term is
that of being under stress and in the medium to long term is positive.

ANNUAL REPORT 22’ 65


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

Company's Performance:
Your Company's gross premium (including Takaful business) was Rs. 39.56 billion (2021: Rs. 37.41 billion),
an increase of 6%. Despite ongoing economic challenges, all distribution channels have contributed to this
performance. The Net Income of the Company is Rs. 53.01 billion (after including investment income and
net gains on financial assets). The Net Insurance Benefits and Total Expenses amount to Rs. 50.16 billion,
thus resulting in a profit before tax of Rs. 2.84 billion.
The imposition of the indefinite 4% annual super tax for tax years 2022 and 2023 has impacted the profit
after tax. Your Company made an after-tax profit of Rs. 1.692 billion which translates to an EPS of Rs. 16.92.
The Board provides the management of the Company a strategic direction and long-term vision for the
business. Vision and mission statement, key pillars for the overall corporate strategy and significant policies
of the Company are developed by the Board.
The Board will continue to play its role in steering the strategic direction of the Company to ensure that it

by the able and eminent officers, staff and distribution channels of the Company towards its development
and growth. I would also like to offer my gratitude to EFU General Insurance Ltd. for their continuous support

Managing risks lies at the core of our business. Our Risk Management efforts focuses on ensuring sound and sustainable growth
while protecting the unique combination of our tangible and intangible assets. A sound risk management framework aids in

independently from other business units, support functions as well as the Internal Audit, is responsible for ensuring a sound

For the year ended December 31, 2022

EFU Life Assurance Ltd started its Window Takaful Operations on 6th February 2015. By the grace of Allah, the year
under review was the eighth successful year of Family Takaful in EFU Life. In this year too, the Management,

underwritten good numbers in Takaful.

During the year under review; EFU Life Window Takaful Operations (EFU Life-WTO) has achieved significant successes,
details of which are as follow:

segments performed very well and underwritten good figures in Takaful.

Marketing materials, Agreements of Banca Takaful and Group Takaful etc. andAlhamdulillah I have found them

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

• Conducting Training and Development is an imperative for understanding the principles of Takaful and its
practical outline. For this purpose EFU Life-WTO arranged both onsite and online classroom training sessions
for its Distribution Channels working in their respective fields. I personally felt that participants gained significantly
from these training sessions. I hope EFU Life-WTO will continue this practice in the future.
Generally, the Board of Directors and Management of EFU Life-WTO have shown their sincerity to comply with
Shariah Rulings, therefore, I am of the view, that overall operations of Takaful in EFU Life are Shariah Compliant

report on the management's assessment of compliance of the Window Takaful Operations (Takaful Operations)
of the Operator, as set out in the annexed Statement of Compliance (the Statement) prepared by the management
for the year ended 31 December 2022 (the “Report”).

Other than as described in the preceding paragraph, which sets out the scope of our engagement, we did not
perform assurance procedures on the remaining information included in the Annual Report of Operator, and
accordingly, we do not express an opinion on this information.

Criteria applied by the management


In preparing the Subject Matter, the management applied the criteria in accordance with the Takaful Rules, 2012
(Criteria).

The Management's responsibilities


Th management is responsible for selecting the Criteria, and for presenting the Subject Matter in accordance with
that Criteria, in all material respects. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal controls,
maintaining adequate records and making estimates that are relevant to the preparation of the subject matter, such
that it is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

EY's responsibilities
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the presentation of the Subject Matter based on the evidence we have
obtained.

We conducted our engagement in accordance with the International Standard for Assurance Engagements Other
Than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information ('ISAE 3000'), and the terms of reference for this
engagement as agreed with the Operator on 25 May, 2022. Those standards require that we plan and perform
our engagement to obtain reasonable assurance about whether, in all material respects, the Subject Matter is
presented in accordance with the Criteria, and to issue a report. The nature, timing, and extent of the procedures
selected depend on our judgment, including an assessment of the risk of material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

Our Independence and Quality Control


We have maintained our independence and confirm that we have met the requirements of the Code of Ethics for
Chartered Accountants issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan and have the required
competencies and experience to conduct this assurance engagement.

EY also applies International Standard on Quality Control 1, Quality Control for Firms that Perform Audits and
Reviews of Financial Statements, and Other Assurance and Related Services Engagements, and accordingly maintains
a comprehensive system of quality control including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance
with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Description of procedures performed


• We checked that all the products and policies have been approved by Shariah Advisor and observed that the
Operator has developed and implemented all the policies and procedures in accordance with The Takaful Rules,
2012 and Shariah Rules and Principles as determined by Shariah Advisor.

112 ANNUAL REPORT 22’


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

• We checked that the assets and liabilities of Participants' Takaful Fund and Participant Investment Fund are
segregated from its other assets and liabilities, at all times in accordance with the provisions of the Takaful Rules,
2012.

• We reviewed training certificates and attendance sheets to evaluate that the Operator has imparted necessary
trainings and orientations to maintain the adequate level of awareness, capacity, and sensitization of the sta_
and management.

• We have designed and performed following verification procedures (including but not limited to) on various
financial arrangements, based on judgmental and systematic samples with regard to the compliance with Takaful
Rules, 2012 and Shariah Rules and Principles:

– We obtained details of investments made and checked that all investments made in Shariah Compliant stocks
as determined by Shariah Advisor

– We inquired regarding other investments like fixed deposits to confirm that all such contracts are executed
with Islamic Financial Institutions

– We reviewed re-takaful parties along with arrangements/contracts entered into by Window Takaful Operations
to assess compliance with Shariah Advisor guidelines and Takaful Rules, 2012.

– We re-calculated Operator's profit share and Wakalah fee income to confirm that approved percentage are
applied on income from investments and contribution respectively.

The procedures selected by us for the engagement depended on our judgment, including the assessment of the,
risks of the Operator's material non-compliance with the Takaful Rules 2012, whether due to fraud or error. In
making those risk assessments, we considered internal control relevant to the Operator's compliance with the
Takaful Rules, 2012, in order to design assurance procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for
the purpose of expressing a conclusion as to the effectiveness of the Operator's internal control over the Takaful
Operations' compliance with the Takaful Rules, 2012. A system of internal control, because of its nature, may not
prevent or detect all instances of non-compliance with the Takaful Rules, 2012, and consequently cannot provide
absolute assurance that the objective of compliance with the Takaful Rules, 2012 will be met. Further, projection
of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate
or fail.

In performing our audit procedures necessary guidance on Shari'ah matters was provided by the internal Shari'ah
experts.

Opinion
In our opinion, the Statement of Compliance of the Takaful Operations of the Operator as of 31 December 2022
is presented, in all material respects, in accordance with Takaful Rules, 2012.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report on the Statement of Compliance


contained in the Code of Corporate Governance for Insurers, 2016 and
Listed Companies (Code of Corporate Governance) Regulations, 2019

We have reviewed the enclosed Statement of Compliance with the Code of Corporate of Governance for Insurers,
2016 and the Listed Companies (Code of Corporate Governance) Regulations, 2019 (combined called 'the Code')
prepared by the Board of Directors of EFU Life Assurance Limited (the Company) for the year ended 31 December
2022 in accordance with the requirements of the Code.

The responsibility for compliance with the Code is that of the Board of Directors of the Company. Our responsibility
is to review whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Company's compliance with the
provisions of the Code and report if it does not and to highlight any non-compliance with the requirements of the
Code. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the Company's personnel and review of various documents
prepared by the Company to comply with the Code.

As a part of our audit of the financial statements we are required to obtain an understanding of the accounting
and internal control systems sufficient to plan the audit and develop an effective audit approach. We are not required
to consider whether the Board of Directors' statement on internal control covers all risks and controls or to form
an opinion on the effectiveness of such internal controls, the Company's corporate governance procedures and
risks.

The Code require the Company to place before the Audit Committee, and upon recommendation of the Audit
Committee, place before the Board of Directors for their review and approval, its related party transactions. We
are only required and have ensured compliance of this requirement to the extent of the approval of the related
party transactions by the Board of Directors upon recommendation of the Audit Committee.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the Statement of Compliance
does not appropriately reflect the Company's compliance, in all material respects, with the requirements contained
in the Code as applicable to the Company for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International
Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants as adopted by the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of Pakistan (the Code) and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis

challenged the scope and applicability of provincial sales tax on services on premium from the life insurance business

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of

these matters.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in
the annual report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in
doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have
performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report
that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with
the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan and the requirements of Insurance Ordinance, 2000
and Companies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017) and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to
enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis
of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.

Board of directors are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with
ISAs as applicable in Pakistan will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

122 ANNUAL REPORT 22’


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise professional judgement and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from
fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• 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
Company's internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's 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 Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the
financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on
the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may
cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.

We communicate with the board of directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during
our audit.

We also provide the board of directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably
be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the board of directors, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the
matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our
report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
benefits of such communication.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirement

Based on our audit, we further report that in our opinion:

a) proper books of account have been kept by the Company as required by the Insurance Ordinance, 2000 and the
Companies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017);

b) the statement of financial position, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity
and the statement of cash flows together with the notes thereon have been drawn up in conformity with the
Insurance Ordinance, 2000, the Companies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017), and are in agreement with the books of
account;

c) apportionment of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses between two or more funds has been performed in
accordance with the advice of the appointed actuary;

aforementioned financial statements.

3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are consistent with those of the
previous financial year.
3.1 Property and equipment
These are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the depreciable amount of the assets over their expected useful lives
at the rates specified in note 5 to the financial statements, after taking into account residual value, if any. The useful
lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at each balance sheet
date.
Depreciation on additions is charged from the quarter in which an asset is available for use while no depreciation
is charged for the quarter in which asset is disposed off.

ANNUAL REPORT 22’ 131


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

Subsequent cost are included in the assets carrying amount or recognised as separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is possible that the future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the Company and the
cost of the item can be measured reliably. Revenue expenditures are charged to statement of profit and loss account.
An item of fixed asset is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its
use or disposal. Gain and losses on disposal, if any, of assets are included in statement of profit and loss account.
The carrying value of tangible fixed assets is reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances
indicate that this carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indications exist and where the carrying values
exceed the estimated recoverable amounts, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.
3.2 Leases
A contract is, or contains a lease if the contract conveys a right to control the use of an identified asset for a period
of time in exchange for consideration. The Company mainly lease properties for its operations and recognises a right
of use asset and lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost,
and subsequently at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for certain
remeasurements of the lease liability. The right of use asset is depreciated using the straight line method from the
commencement date to the earlier of end of the useful life of the right of use asset or end of lease term. The
estimated useful lives of assets are determined on the same basis as that for owned assets. In addition, the right
of use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement
date, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate of the Company. The lease liability is subsequently increased
by the interest cost on the lease liability and decreased by lease payments made. It is remeasured when there is a
change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, a change in assessment of whether
extension option is reasonably certain to be exercised or a termination option is reasonably certain not to be exercised.
The Company has elected not to recognise right of use assets and lease liabilities for short term and low value assets.
The lease payments associated with these leases are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease
term.
3.3 Intangible assets
These are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment in value. Amortisation on intangible
fixed assets is charged to statement of profit and loss account applying the straight line method at the rates specified
in note 7 to the financial statements after taking into account residual value, if any.
Amortisation is charged from the quarter the assets are available for use and no amortisation is charged for the
quarter in which the asset is disposed off. The useful life and amortisation method is reviewed, and adjusted if
appropriate, at each balance sheet date.
The carrying values of intangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances
indicate that this carrying value may not be recoverable, if any such indication exists and where the carrying values
exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.
3.4 Insurance contracts
Classification
The Company currently issues contracts that are classified as insurance and takaful contracts as they transfer significant
insurance risk (against death, disability and sickness) from the policyholder to the Company. All contracts which
include an investment element are unit-linked contracts linked to unit linked funds.
The Company classifies its business into individual life and group life businesses, in both cases the form of contract
consisting of main plans and supplementary riders (which are generally optional).
Individual life business mainly consists of unit-linked products and conventional protection products, in both cases
with optional supplementary riders which generally provide protection only. Group life business consists primarily
of protection products and a relatively small number of unit-linked policies.

3.15 Taxation
Current
Provision of current tax is based on the taxable income for the year determined in accordance with the Income Tax
Ordinance, 2001. The charge for current tax is calculated using prevailing tax rates or tax rates expected to apply
to the profit for the year, if enacted. The charge for current tax also includes adjustments, where considered
necessary, to provision for tax made in previous years arising from assessments finalised during the current year for
such years.
Deferred
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of all temporary differences at the
balance sheet date between the tax bases and carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax
assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences, unused tax losses and tax credits can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset
is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively
enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statement of profit and loss account
and the statement of comprehensive income.

employees are paid in full for their contribution, whereas, Company's contribution accumulated in the fund is paid
to employees over the period of time in accordance with the rules of the fund.
3.17 Impairment
A financial asset is assessed at each financial statement date to determine whether there is any objective evidence
that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if there is objective evidence that one or more
events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.
If a decline in fair value is significant or prolonged, then there is objective evidence of impairment, regardless of
how long management intends to hold the investment.

4 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of unconsolidated financial statements in conformity with approved accounting standards requires
management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.
The judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience, current trends and various other
factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making
the estimates about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing
basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision
affects only that period or in the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
In particular, the matters involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and
estimates are significant to the unconsolidated financial statements are:

Note
- Property and equipment 3.1
- Lease liabilities 3.2
- Policyholders' liabilities and underlying actuarial assumptions 3.6
- Impairment 3.17
- Taxation 3.15
- Provisions 3.14
- Intangibles 3.30

judgments which are significant to the financial statements:

26. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

26.1 The Income tax assessment of the Company for tax year 2022 has been finalized. In 2013, Income Tax Department imposed
an additional tax demand under section 151(1)(d) on account of non-deduction of withholding tax on surrender and maturity
amounting to Rs.13.833 million and Rs.15.014 million for Tax Years 2012 and 2013 respectively. The Company filed an appeal
before Commissioner Inland Revenue (Appeals) and the same was dismissed. The Company filed second appeal before the
Appellate Tribunal against the order of CIT. The Learned Appellate Tribunal Inland revenue had decided the case in Company's
favour. Subsequent to it, the department has filed review application against the order in Honourable Court of Sindh. The
decision is still pending. The Company expects a favourable decision.

In 2015 and 2016, The Searle Company Limited (Searle) issued bonus shares (76,031 shares and 342,480 shares respectively)
after withholding 5 percent of bonus shares (3,802 shares and 17,124 shares respectively) and the IBL Healthcare Limited
issued bonus shares (46,625 shares and 80,311 shares respectively) after withholding 5 percent of bonus shares (2,331 shares
and 4,016 shares respectively). In this regard, a constitutional petition had been filed by Searle in Sindh High Court challenging
the applicability of withholding tax provision on bonus shares received by the Company. The honorable high court decided
the case against Searle. Subsequently, Searle filed an appeal with a larger bench of the Sindh High Court and in response
the Sindh High Court has suspended the earlier judgment until the next date of hearing, which has not yet been decided.
The Company is of the view that the case will be decided in its favour. The amount involved is Rs. 3.279 million.

26.2 SRB through notification no. SRB-3-4/17/2021 dated 30th June 2021 has revoked its previous exemption of life insurance,
granted through SRB-3-4/5/2019 dated 8th May 2019, which is now taxable at a rate of 3%. However, exemption for health
insurance has been extended till 30 June 2023.

152 ANNUAL REPORT 22’


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

The Company, along with other life insurance industry players, based on the advice of its tax consultants filed petitions in
the Honorable High Courts of Lahore and Sindh, challenging the levy of Punjab Sales Tax (PST) and Sindh Sales Tax (SST) on
life insurance in Punjab and Sindh. The petitions were filed on the strength of legal advice that:

– Substantiating the Company's view that insurance is not a service, but in fact, in sum and substance, a contingent
contract under which payment is made on the occurrence of an event, specified in the terms of contract or policy;

– A question of constitutionality arose on the levy of provincial sales tax on life insurance, which in their view, was a
Federal subject, since the Federation has retained a legislative mandate over all laws relating to insurance under Entry
29 of the said List, therefore, only the Federation is entitled to levy any tax in relation to insurance business; and

– Without prejudice to the main contentions as stated above, even otherwise, the legal advisors had expressed a further
illegality that there is a critical flaw in the context of the manner in which the entire premium payment has been charged
to the levy of provincial sales tax. Even the component of the premium which is to form part of a policyholder’s investment
account is subjected to the levy.

The Honorable Lahore and Sindh High Courts have directed that no coercive measure will be taken until the next date of
hearing.

Further subsequent to filing petition, all the provincial tax authorities i.e. SRB, PRA and BRA called a meeting of the industry
representatives on 11 January 2020 in Karachi to discuss the matters relating to sales tax on premium. The matter was
discussed in details and it was agreed to form a joint committee of the industry representatives as well as from all the provincial
tax authorities. Further the committee formed met on 5 February 2020 in Lahore at PRA office to work out the way forward.
Thereafter, due to the COVID 19 situation and consequential lockdown, further meetings of the Joint committee are not
being held.

SRB through notification no. SRB-3-4/13/2020 dated 22 June 2020 exempted the life insurance services conditionally from
1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020 subject to e-depositing SST due, on such services for the tax periods from 1 July 2020 onward.

Further in Sindh, on June 29, 2020 SRB through another notification No SRB-3-4/18/2020 has amended the responsibility
of withholding agent rules requiring a Company also to withheld SST on Services of Life Insurance.

The Company with other life insurance companies has filed another petition in this regard in the Hon'ble Sindh High Court.
The Hon'ble SHC has directed that no coercive measure will be taken until the next date of hearing.

In continuation to the petition filed in Sindh High Court, a hearing was scheduled to be conducted during 2021, however
no hearing was held during the period amid rising cases due to the pandemic and annual vacations of the judges.

Furthermore, Khyber Pakhtunkhua Revenue Authority (KPRA) through Khyber Pakhtunkhua Finance Act 2021 has imposed
sales tax on life insurance at the rate of 15%, from 1st July 2021, which was previously exempt, for the reason of economic
documentation. The matter has been taken up by the IAP with KPRA explaining that 'Insurance' is a Federal subject, hence
law in respect of insurance should not be made by the province.

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

Based on the legal opinion obtained the Company considers that it has a reasonably strong case on the merits in the
Constitutional petition and the writ petition filed in the High Courts. In view of the above the Company has not started billing
or withholding sales tax to its customers. The amount of sales tax involved is around Rs. 2,626 million (2021: Rs. 1,815.81
million) computed on the basis of risk based premium excluding the investment amount allocated to unit linked policies. The
management contends that in case the administrative efforts fail, the amount will be charged to the policyholders.

26.3 Bank guarantees amounting to Rs. 55.94 million have been given in respect of Group Life coverage. These bank guarantees
will expire on 30 December 2023.

26.4 There were no capital commitments at the year end.

42 MANAGEMENT OF INSURANCE RISK AND FINANCIAL RISK


42.1 Insurance risk
42.1.1 Insurance contracts and takaful contracts
42.1.1.1 Classification
The company currently issues contracts that are classified as insurance and takaful contracts as they transfer significant
insurance risk (against death, disability and sickness) from the policyholder to the company. In the past the company has
issued contracts where the insurance risk transferred is insignificant, these therefore being classified as investment contracts.
All contracts which include an investment element being unit-linked contracts linked to internal mutual funds.
The company classifies its business into Individual Life and Group Life businesses, in both cases the form of contract
consisting of main plans and supplementary riders (which are generally optional).
Individual life business mainly consists of unit linked products and conventional protection products, in both cases with
optional supplementary riders which generally provide protection only. Group Life business consists primarily of protection
products and a relatively small number of unit-linked policies.
42.1.1.2 Contract details and measurement
The insurance contracts offered by the Company are described below:
42.1.1.2.1Individual life policies
These consist of the following types of policies:
(a) Unit-linked products
These are medium to long term unit-linked plans designed to address a variety of future policyholder needs, such as
retirement planning, education planning for children, marriage planning for children, life protection and investments and
savings for future. Premiums received from policyholders and after deduction of specified charges including risk charges,
are invested in internal unit funds of the company The basic plan contains life cover over and above the unit value, with
additional protection (for death, disability and sickness) being provided through the addition of optional riders.
Policyholder Liabilities for these plans (excluding attached riders) are measured as the sum of the fair value of units attached
and the unearned part of any risk premiums charged.
(b) Conventional protection products
Two types of products are offered under Individual life conventional business, these being medium to long term contracts
with level premiums being paid over the policy period. The company offers a standard term life assurance product that
offers protection in event of death as well as a decreasing term life assurance policy that covers outstanding loan balances.
Policyholder liabilities for both products are determined on a net premium basis by determining the present value of benefits
less the present value of future net premiums, a theoretical net premium being calculated using conservative assumptions
for mortality and the discount rate.
(c) Family takaful investment linked products
These are medium to long term unit-linked plans operated through Window Takaful Operations of EFU Life Assurance
Limited.
The Member liabilities are divided into two broad categories, unit reserves and non-unit reserves. The unit reserve comprises
of the total units allocated to the Membership in the Participants’ Investment Fund (PIF). The value of these units, at the
bid price prevailing on the valuation date, forms the unit reserve. The non-unit reserve is the actuarial reserve in the
Participants’ Takaful Fund (PTF). The net non-unit reserve is calculated as the unearned mortality reserve which is the
calculated as the unexpired portion of the net mortality charges (Net of Wakala Fee and Retakaful Contribution) deposited
into the PTF. The gross non unit reserve is calculated as the net reserve plus the unearned retakaful contribution paid.
(d) Accident and health products
These consist of long term and short term accident and health products providing cover against accidental death, disability,
sickness and critical illness, offered both as long term as well as yearly renewable plans.
Policyholder Liabilities for short term contracts are evaluated using the unearned premium reserve method, taking into
account the unexpired future period of risk, with a premium deficiency reserve being provided for where the company’s
management perceives that the premium being charged is not adequate. For the critical illness long-term contracts, liabilities
are evaluated using a net premium method i.e. expected present value of benefits payable less expected present value of
net premiums receivable.

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

(e) Other supplementary benefits


The company also offers a variety of supplementary benefits attached with main plans including additional term life
assurance, income benefits, critical illness, sickness and accidental death and disability related benefits.
The methods used to determine policyholder liabilities differ with the nature and terms of these benefits. Most supplementary
benefits related to death and critical illness, are identical to some main plans offered in individual life business, the valuation
methods used for these being consistent with their related main plans. Measurement of liabilities for benefits related to
accident disability, accidental death and sickness are based on unearned premium method.
(f) Reserve for outstanding losses (Individual life)
The company records reported losses as payable upon intimation of any claim. Unpaid claims are assessed from time to
time and the liability measured in accordance with management’s estimates of whether claims are payable or not.
Claims payable over a duration of more than one year are measured at the discounted value of expected payments.
The company also provides, as part of policyholder liabilities, a reserve for incurred but not reported claims (IBNR). The
general lag approach, using chain-ladder method for IBNR is applied. Since the individual family takaful fund has become
sizeable, an IBNR claims reserve has been set aside been determined using the Chain Ladder (CL) method subject to a
minimum flooring net of reinsurance reserve.
42.1.1.2.2Group life and group family takaful protection policies

Nature of contracts:
The company’s group life and group takaful business consists of one year term life contracts which provide coverage, in
the event of death or disability, to:
1. Employees of a common employer, benefits payable under these contracts being either fixed, in case of death, or linked
to the extent of loss incurred by the policyholder, in case of disability;
2. Customers of financial institutions, the contracts being issued to financial institutions to protect their customers’
outstanding loan balances, such as on personal loan, mortgages and credit cards.
Unit-Linked Group Life policies are similar in nature to Individual-Life unit-linked products.
Policyholder Liabilities:
Policyholder liabilities consist of the following components:
Net unearned premium reserve
The unearned premium reserve is the portion of premium that had been booked in the current period but pertains to a
period that extends beyond the valuation date. The fraction of premium that is to be consumed in the succeeding period
is considered to be unearned. The unearned premium is the aggregate for both posted and fluctuations in the unearned
premium.
The unearned premium reserve is computed both gross and net of reinsurance, the methodology used for both being similar.
Unit-linked Group Life Policies
Policyholder liabilities for these policies are measured as the sum of the fair value of units attached and the unearned part
of any risk premiums charged.
Profit Commission Reserve (Accrued for Policyholders)
This is the total accrued profit commission that is payable to policy holders at a future date. Profit commission for any policy
normally becomes payable at the end of three policy years. However, accrued profit commission is calculated at the end
of each policy year to account for the liability that has been created for that year. The sum of all such accrued profit
commissions for all schemes is the Profit Commission reserve.
Profit Commission Reserve (Accrued from Reinsurer)
This is the total profit commission due from re-insurer on all reinsured schemes. Profit commission rates are applied on
insured groups, based on their size. The total profit commission accrued from re-insurer is the sum of profit commissions
for each group.

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

Premium Deficiency Reserve


The need for premium deficiency reserve arises when the company expects to incur claims in excess of reserves set aside
using conventional methods. The company analyzed its current portfolio of group contracts and evaluated loss ratios of
group business. The company does not expect excessive claims on any schemes and hence no provision for Premium
Deficiency Reserve is set aside.
Incurred But Not Reported (IBNR) Reserve
The IBNR (incurred but not reported) reserve is an estimate of those claims that might have occurred but not yet reported.
It is calculated using the IBNR triangulation methodology using last 5 years’ claims development data and a combination
of Chain Ladder (CL) and Expected Loss Ratio (ELR) methods.
42.1.1.3 Liability adequacy test
Liability adequacy test is applied to all long term contracts where necessary. The test is carried out using current best
estimates of assumptions and future net cash flows, including premiums receivable and benefits payable.
To determine the adequacy of liabilities, assumptions must be based on realistic best estimates. At the moment, the
company does not have sufficient mortality data for comparison with assumed life table EFU (61-66). The company compares
EFU (61-66) with recent mortality studies for similar groups. The comparison suggests that current actual mortality experience
is better than the experience reflected in EFU (61-66). Thus the company uses a modified version of EFU (61-66) as a best
estimate of mortality for liability adequacy test.
The investment return currently assumed for valuation is 3.75% p.a. This assumption reflects a long-term conservative
return that the company expects to earn on assets backing these liabilities. On a more realistic view of current financial
markets, the company estimates that a long term return on these assets of 6% is reasonable. Liabilities are re-evaluated
at investment return assumption of 6% for Liability Adequacy Test.
The table below compares total policyholder liabilities under existing valuation basis with policyholder liabilities calculated
using best estimate assumptions:
(Rupees in ‘000)

Policyholder Policyholder liabilities

Assumption valuation basis assumptions

Mortality 161 658 211 161 406 390


Investment returns 161 658 211 161 460 390

The liabilities evaluated under these assumptions suggest that recognized liabilities are adequate and no further provision
is required.

42.1.2 Reinsurance / Retakaful contracts held:


The company has entered into reinsurance / retakaful (hereinafter referred to as “reinsurance”) arrangements, for both
its individual and group businesses, in order to manage risks associated with the frequency and severity of claims. These
arrangements include cover under treaties as well as on a facultative basis. The terms of reinsurance treaties vary by type
of business, the objective being to maintain a reasonable risk profile suiting the risk appetite and overall exposure to
adverse movements in mortality or morbidity.
Primarily, reinsurance assets are amounts due from reinsurers with respect to recoveries under claims and profit commission.
Reinsurance recoveries are measured according to the terms and conditions of the reinsurance contracts.
Reinsurance liabilities consist of amounts due to reinsurers on account of reinsurance premiums due which are measured
accounting to the terms of the arrangements.
The details related to reinsurance assets and liabilities are shown below:
(Rupees in ‘000)
Amounts due Amounts due
Reinsurer rating from reinsurers to reinsurers
'A' or above 337 209 363 890
The company assesses impairment on its reinsurance assets on a regular basis to identify any losses in recoveries. As of
now, company’s all reinsurance assets are due from reinsurers with a credit rating of “A or Above”. The reinsurers maintain
a sound credit history and hence no impairment provision is required for now.

ANNUAL REPORT 22’ 167


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

42.1.3 Accounting estimates and judgments


The company makes several estimates of assumptions to evaluate its assets and liabilities reported in its financial statements.
On the liability side, there are a number of factors that have a direct impact on policyholder liabilities. Assumptions are
continually evaluated using internal analysis and monitoring processes to test validity of these assumptions.
42.1.3.1 Mortality, disability and critical illness
Mortality and disability rates are basic assumptions used in valuation of policyholder liabilities. For mortality, life table EFU
(61-66) is being currently used. The life table was published more than 40 years ago and may not reflect mortality
improvements. For reserving purposes, a 10% mortality loading is used over EFU (61-66) rates to build in conservatism.
An analysis of past mortality experience, reveals that 10% mortality loading for reserving purposes is appropriate to ensure
prudence.
Sudden adverse experience in mortality might occur due to epidemics, causing deaths on a mass scale due to incurable
contagious illnesses. Mortality may also deteriorate over a period of time, due to wide-scale changes in living life styles,
eating and health habits.
Sensitivity test with respect to mortality is carried out and impact on policyholder liabilities is observed. When mortality
rates increase by 10%, policyholder liabilities increase by 0.043%. Likewise, when mortality rates decrease by 10%,
policyholder liabilities decrease by -0.043%.
In absence of credible disability and critical illness incidence rates, the company uses reinsurance rates for actuarial liability
valuation of disability and critical illness benefits.
42.1.3.2 Investment income
Investment income is an important assumption for valuation of long-term conventional plans. This is the rate at which
future expected benefits and expected premiums are discounted. Currently, the valuation assumption used for investment
income is 3.75% p.a.
Sensitivity test with respect to investment income is carried out and its impact on policyholder liabilities observed. When
investment rate is increased by 10%, policyholder liabilities decrease by 0.001%. Likewise, when investment income rate
is decreased by 10%, policyholder liabilities increase by 0.002%.
42.1.4 Frequency and severity of claims
Frequency and severity can have a significant impact on total claims paid out by the company. High frequency of claims
could occur due to adverse experience of mortality or disability. Adverse mortality experience, in short-term, could be due
to a wide-range spread of fatal contagious disease, an epidemic. Over a longer term, overall health practices, eating and
living habits could potentially have an adverse effect on mortality.
About 90% of company’s business is concentrated in the provinces of Sindh and Punjab. This concentration is largely in
line with the population of these provinces relative to country’s total population. The company’s diversified portfolio of
contracts helps limit the frequency and severity of claims. However, in event of large number of deaths or disabilities,
company does face the risk of paying out excessive claims. To manage and mitigate this exposure, arrangements in form
of reinsurance and catastrophe cover are in place.
In Group life business, frequency and severity of claims can be affected by concentration of business in a specifically risky
class of industry. Claim frequency can rise substantially from businesses in industries that are more prone to accidents
due to the nature of work they perform. Likewise, severity of claims can also be associated with business concentration
in a specific class of industry. The company continually monitors its concentration risk and takes measures to keep its
business portfolio well diversified.
Contracts in group life, are mainly one year term life contracts, where premium rates are generally guaranteed for one
year only. The company retains the right of changing premium rates by incorporating the claim experience of a group
insured, thereby allowing the company to charge a specific group in line with its claim experience.
The company regularly carries out an exercise to monitor time lags between intimation and settlement claim dates. The
study reveals that a significant portion of claims are settled within twelve months of claim intimation.
42.1.5 Sources of uncertainty in estimation of future benefit payments and premium receipts
The uncertainty with respect to future premiums and benefits may arise due to unexpected changes in mortality or disability
experience. Adverse mortality experience will result in excess benefit payments, and reduced future premium income.
Likewise, unexpected changes in surrenders and lapses could also have a significant impact on future realized premiums.
Estimates of lapses and surrenders are based on internal experience studies carried out annually. Factors that could affect
policyholder behavior include market factors such as interest rates, policyholder preferences in terms of the monetary value
that a policyholder relates with the insurance policy, the frequency of premium payments and the age of the individual.

42.1.6 Process used to decide on assumptions


Assumptions used to determine policyholder liabilities include, mortality/disability/critical illness rates, investment returns
for conventional business, investment returns for investment linked business, expenses and mortality loading.
Mortality assumptions should in principle reflect adequate conservatism in liabilities. The Company considers efu(61-66)
life table to be appropriate for actuarial valuation of policyholder liabilities.
Disability and Critical illness rates used for liability valuation are the reinsurance rates provided by the reinsurer. Due to
lack of sufficient claim experience for these disabilities and critical illnesses, the company considers this as the best estimate
available.
The company uses an investment return assumption of 3.75% per annum to evaluate actuarial liabilities of its conventional
plans. Liabilities of conventional products should in principle reflect a long term conservative interest rate, to reflect
adequate conservatism. An investment return of 3.75% per annum is hence considered appropriate.
For Unit Linked products where the death benefit is paid in form of annuity, the company uses a discount rate of 6% to
evaluate present value of future stream of cash flows. In principle, the interest rate assumption set to discount cash flows
should reflect the expected returns on assets backing these liabilities. The company expects to earn at least a 6% return
on assets backing these unit-linked liabilities.
The company reserves for any increase in actuarial liability resulting from the possible reinstatement of lapsed policies.
The current liability valuation also takes into account cash value of units pertaining to policies lapsed in last 2 years. A
unit-linked policy lapses when the second annual premium of policy is not received. In principle, cash value of a lapsed
policy is not surrenderable, as per provisions and conditions, unless the second premium is paid and policy is reinstated.
However, the company recognizes the possibility of these lapsed policies to be reinstated and hence carries out periodic
studies to determine expected renewals. In opinion of the company’s management and appointed actuary assumptions
used to set aside a liability against these lapsed policies is prudent.
For the purpose of liability adequacy tests the company makes assumptions relating to expenses. For this purpose regular
expense analyses are carried out based on actual expenses and transaction volumes.
42.1.7 Sensitivity analysis
The basic assumptions used in valuation of liabilities are mortality, disability, critical illness rates and investment returns
assumed in discounting future cash flows. The table below presents sensitivity results with respect to above mentioned
factors, with their impact observed on policyholder liabilities:

% change in % change in
Sensitivity variable sensitivity variable policyholder liabilities
Worsening of mortality and critical illness rates 10% 0.043%
Improvement in mortality and critical illness rates 10% -0.043%
Increase in investment returns 10% -0.001%
Decrease in investment returns 10% 0.002%

42.1.8 Management of insurance, financial and other risks


42.1.8.1 Insurance risk
The risk that company faces is due to randomness in occurrence of insured events. In principle, the company faces the
risk that total claims exceed the reserves set aside at any point in time.
The occurrence of any single claim and amount paid on a single claim is a random event. However, as the number of
contracts and independent lives increase, the estimated claim amounts and the number of claims get closer to the actual
figures. This phenomenon is observed when pool of contracts is large enough and lives are independent. To manage this
risk, company monitors its concentration risk, on several parameters, and maintains diversity in its portfolio of insurance
contracts.
In order to maintain this diversification, the company takes a number of steps to manage the overall insurance risk of its
portfolio of insurance contracts. The risk of an individual life is broadly assessed in light of its: medical condition, which
include living habits, physical health and medical history; occupational condition, which assesses an individual’s job profile
and whether any characteristics of the job could have a significant impact on that individuals mortality; financial condition,
which determines the individuals ability and affordability to purchase and maintain an insurance contract over the long-
term.

ANNUAL REPORT 22’ 169


EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

The company identifies and defines parameters in its underwriting strategy to clearly identify individuals (sub-standard
lives) which could potentially increase the overall risk of insurance portfolio. Based on certain parameters, such individuals
pay an extra charge called Extra Mortality Premium, in order to compensate for extra risk added to existing pool of
insured individuals. These measures allow the company to charge an individual life in line with the risk contributed to
its insurance portfolio. These underwriting measures also discourage accumulation of sub-standard lives in the insured
pool, thereby managing the overall insurance risk of company in the long-term.
The company also manages its geographical concentration of risk. Currently the company’s geographical concentration
of risk for its Individual Life sales force business is as follows:

Diversification of Risk Portfolio


Before After
Resinsurance Reinsurance
Individual Conventional Business
Azad Kashmir 2.45% 2.99%
Baluchistan 4.86% 5.82%
Gilgit Baltistan 1.82% 2.62%

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa 1.87% 2.96%
Punjab 45.31% 46.84%
Sindh 49.89% 46.13%

For Group Life business, the Company’s geographical concentration of risk is as follows:

Conventional business:
Sindh 49.13% 60.76%
Punjab 40.87% 39.24%
Group Family Takaful business:
Sindh 82.92% 72.67%
Punjab 17.08% 27.33%

The company also has reinsurance arrangements with its reinsurance partners, to whom the company passes any excess
insurance risk beyond its retention levels. Limits are continually monitored and kept in line with the overall risk tolerance.
This allows the company to retain the risk according to its risk capacity and minimizes excessive claim payouts. Currently,
the total risk retained on individual life products is Rs. 2,000,000 per life for the death risk, Rs. 1,000,000 for individual
takaful policies and Rs. 1,000,000 for risks associated with critical illness plans. For Group Life, the company currently
retains Rs. 2,000,000 of total life risk on each life and Rs. 1,000,000 for Group Family Takaful business. For critical life
cover, 50% of the sum covered is retained for both, Group Life and Group Family Takaful business.
The company also has arrangements for claims in event of a catastrophic scenario under an Excess of Loss Catastrophe
cover which is triggered in event of excessive claims, limiting total amount of claims paid out if such an event occurs.

EFU LIFE ASSURANCE LIMITED

42.1.8.2 Other risks


The company faces a number of financial risks in its assets and liabilities, apart from insurance risk. These risks can be
broadly categorized as expense risk, lapse risk, market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. This section describes these risks
on the company level and identifies and describes the processes and strategy of management to manage these risks.
42.1.8.3 Expense risk
The risk that the Company faces is that future expenses may be higher than those used in pricing of products causing
an expense overrun. The company mitigates this risk by incorporating a certain level of acceptable conservatism in
building future policy expense factors in pricing and expects to maintain its actual expenses within these limits. Regular
monitoring of expenses allows the Company to adjust its pricing in time to account for higher than expected expenses.
The Company closely monitors its expenses by regularly carrying out an expense analysis for its business. The assumptions
for future policy expense levels are determined from the Company’s most recent annual expense analysis, with an extra
margin built-in to account for variability in future expenses. A review of product pricing is carried out each year based
on the latest available expense factors. Constant monitoring of expenses enables the Company to take corrective actions
in time.
Based on the results of expense analysis, the company apportions its management expenses to different lines of business.
42.1.8.4 Lapse risk
The risk the Company faces is that future persistency rates may be lower than assumed in pricing, thus impacting the
emergence of profit from its portfolio of individual life policies. The Company however is confident that this risk is
insignificant as the company places tremendous emphasis on quality customer services and retention of clients by making
persistency standard an integral part of the sales force culture. The Company has been consistently maintaining good
levels of persistency and will continue a similar trend in future.
The Company has robust systems in place to regularly monitor the lapse experience. Regular focus on persistency is
embedded in the Company culture and is an integral part of the monitoring of the sales force performance and
remuneration.
42.1.8.5 Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, whether
those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual security, or its issuer, or factors affecting all securities
traded in the market. The Company is exposed to market risk in relation to its investments with respect to products
other than unit linked products (in unit linked products, investment risk is borne by the policyholder). The Company
limits market risk by maintaining a diversified portfolio and by continuously monitoring developments in government
securities, equity and term finance certificates. The company, along with minimizing market risk by careful diversification
in assets, also periodically carries out an Asset Liability management exercise, to match its duration of assets and liabilities.
42.1.8.6 Credit risk and concentration of credit risk
Credit risk arises when one party fails to discharge its obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss.
Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of counter parties have similar types of business activities. As a result,
any change in economic, political or other conditions would affect their ability to meet their contractual obligations.
The Company is exposed to credit risk on premiums receivable from group clients, commission and claims recoverable
from insurers and investment in term finance certificates. The management monitors exposure to credit risk through
regular review of credit exposure, assessing credit worthiness of counter parties and prudent estimates of provision for
doubtful debts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any major concentration of credit risk.
42.1.8.7 Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its funding requirements, without incurring a material loss
in disposing off its illiquid assets. To guard against this risk, the company maintains a healthy balance of cash and cash
equivalents and readily marketable securities. Liquidity is monitored regularly and assets are frequently rebalanced to
maintain a certain level of liquidity at all times. Going forward, the company also plans to set up a contingency plan,
whereby alternate sources of liquidity will be identified and assets would be analyzed and ranked in their liquidity order,
to determine which assets would need to be disposed off first in case of a liquidity crisis.
The expected payouts in liabilities along with maturity profile of assets and liabilities are monitored to ensure that
adequate liquidity is maintained within the company, to avoid the need of liquidating assets below their actual market
value.

Market risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, whether
those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual security, or its issuer, or factors affecting all securities
traded in the market. The Company is exposed to market risk with respect to its investments and with respect to products
other than unit linked products (Where the investment risk is passed on to policyholders). The Company limits market
risk by maintaining a diversified portfolio and by continuously monitoring developments in government securities, equity

43.1.1.2 Foreign currency risk


Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because
of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company, at present is not materially exposed to currency risk as majority
of the transactions are carried out in Pak Rupees.
43.1.1.3 Other Price Risk
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because
of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes
are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar
financial instruments traded in the market.
43.1.1.4 Equity Price Risk
The Company’s listed securities are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about the future value
of investment securities. The Company limits market risk by maintaining a diversified portfolio. In addition, the
Company actively monitors the key factors that affect stock market. In the equity portfolio, the top three sectors
by exposure are Oil and Gas, Banks and Chemicals.
43.1.2 Credit Risk
Credit risk arises when one party fails to discharge its obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss.
Concentration of credit risk arises when a number of counter parties have similar types of business activities. As a
result, any change in economic, political or other conditions would affect their ability to meet their contractual
obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk on premiums receivable from group clients, commission and
claims recoverable from insurers and investment in term finance certificates. The management monitors exposure
to credit risk through regular review of credit exposure, assessing credit worthiness of counter parties and prudent
estimates of provision for doubtful debts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any major concentration of
credit risk.

The credit quality of Company’s bank balances (including Term Deposit Receipts) can be assessed with reference

Investment in Government securities are not exposed to any credit risk.
The management monitors exposure to credit risk in premium receivable from group clients through regular review
of credit exposure and prudent estimates of provision for doubtful debts. As of 31 December 2022, there was no
provision for doubtful premiums as all the premiums receivable were considered good.
43.1.3 Capital risk managements
The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain a strong
capital base to support the sustained development of its businesses. The Company manages its capital structure by
monitoring return on net assets and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions. In order to
maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend paid to shareholders or issue
new shares.
Currently the Company has a paid up capital of Rs. 1 billion against the minimum required paid-up capital of Rs. 500
million set by the SECP for the life insurance Companies for the year ended 31 December 2022.
In addition, the Company is also required to maintain minimum solvency in accordance with the rules and regulations
set by the SECP, which are fully met by the Company.

44. FAIR VALUE


Investments on the balance sheet are carried at fair value except for investments in unquoted investments which
are stated at cost. The Company is of the view that the fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities
are not significantly different from their carrying values since assets and liabilities are essentially short term in nature.
The Company measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the
inputs used in making the measurements:
Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Fair value measurements using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market
data (i.e. unobservable inputs).
The table below analyses financial instruments measured at the end of the reporting period by the level in the fair
value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorized:

22 FAIR VALUE
Investments on the balance sheet are carried at fair value except for investments in non unit-linked funds which are
stated at lower of cost or market value and unquoted investments which are stated at cost. The Company is of the
view that the fair value of the remaining financial assets and liabilities are not significantly different from their carrying
values since assets and liabilities are essentially short term in nature.
The Company measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs
used in making the measurements:
Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Fair value measurements using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data
(i.e. unobservable inputs).
The table below analyses financial instruments measured at the end of the reporting period by the level in the fair
value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorized:
