Accounting balance and summary the National Bank’s financial activity

Note 2: Basis of preparation and form of presentation

The Bank maintains its accounting records in accordance with The Law. Appropriate adjustments
have been made to these accounting records in order to prepare these financial statements in compli-
ance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS") issued by the International Accounting
Standards Committee. Accordingly, the accounting policies set out in Note 3 have been adopted. The
financial statements are presented in the national currency of the Azerbaijan Republic, the Manat
("AZM"). The annual inflation rates in Azerbaijan during the two years presented have been under
3% and effects of inflation are therefore immaterial. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassi-
fied so as to conform to the current year presentation.
The following is a reconciliation of the Bank's profit before distribution and reserves under
Azerbaijanian Accounting Rules with profit before distribution and reserves under International
Accounting Standards:
In exceptional circumstances, as part of its central banking functions, the Bank may act as lender of
last resort to financial institutions in order to prevent a loss of confidence spreading through the finan-
cial system as a whole, and undertake actions in order to maintain monetary and financial stability in

Azerbaijan. In some cases this may require that the activities of the Bank are disclosed only when con-
ditions have improved. There are, therefore, instances where, in the opinion of the Board of Directors,
it is not appropriate for the Bank to comply with the full disclosure rules under IAS. Accordingly,
although the financial effects of such actions will be included in the financial statements in the same
year, the financial statements may not explicitly identify all significant actions in the year in which

they occur. However, the major significant actions will be disclosed at such time as the Bank believes
that the need for security or confidentiality has ceased.

Note 3: Significant accounting policies

Basis of accounting

Assets and liabilities are recorded based on their historical cost, except for premises and equipment
which are recorded at revalued amounts.

Cash and cash equivalents

For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, cor-
respondent accounts including overnight deposits and short-term placements with non-resident and
resident banks and short-term treasury bills with maturities of three months or less from the date of
acquisition.

Placements with and loans to non-resident and resident banks

Placements with and loans to non-resident and resident banks are stated at the principal amounts
outstanding, net of provisions for bad and doubtful amounts. Also included in placements with
banks are securities purchased under agreements to resell ("reverse repos"). Provisions for bad and
doubtful amounts are based on the evaluation by management of the collectibility of loans and
advances. Specific provisions are made against amounts whose recovery has been identified as
doubtful. A general provision is made against potential bad and doubtful amounts which are present
in the Bank’s portfolio but which have not been specifically identified at the date of the financial
statements. The aggregate provisions made during the year are charged against profit for the year in
the Statement of Income.
Provision estimates require the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions. The principal
factors considered in determining the size of provisions are the growth, composition and quality of
the loan portfolio, the level of overdue loans, current economic conditions and the value and adequa-
cy of collateral.
Loans and advances, which cannot be recovered, are written off and charged against the provision
for bad and doubtful debts. Such loans are written off after all necessary legal procedures have been
completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. Recoveries of amounts previously pro-
vided for are treated as a reduction in the charge for provision for bad and doubtful debts for the
year.

Accounting balance and summary the National Bank’s financial activity

Government securities

Government securities are Ministry of Finance Treasury bills and fixed interest securities. The
Treasury bills have been purchased at a discount at auctions conducted by the Bank on behalf of the
Ministry of Finance. The Bank acted as agent and depository of the Ministry of Finance in placement
and circulation of Treasury bills until August 2000. Those functions were transferred to the Baku
Stock Exchange after that date. The discount Treasury bills are stated at cost adjusted for accretion of
discount. Accretion of discount is credited to income over the term of the Treasury bills. Interest on
fixed interest securities is recognized on an accrual basis.

Loans to Government

Loans to Government are stated at the principal amounts outstanding. The Bank believes, in view
of the nature of the lending and the commitments of the Government, that the principal amounts are
fully recoverable and, as such, no provisions are raised against these loans.

Claims on and liabilities to IMF

The Bank represents the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Azerbaijan ("MinFin") in all rela-
tionships with the IMF. Accordingly, the related account balances and transactions with IMF,
(including operations in Special Drawing rights (SDR), the currency of the IMF) are reflected in the
financial statements of Bank, although the ultimate liability for settlement and reimbursement of the
amounts rests with the Ministry of Finance.
The Bank’s asset balances include Quota contributions and holdings of SDR. The liability bal-
ances consist of loans received by MinFin from IMF, together with securities issued by MinFin on
behalf of the Government of Republic of Azerbaijan to IMF, in settlement of Quota amounts.
In order to more accurately reflect the underlying situation, interest charges and credits in respect
of the funds provided by IMF to MinFin are included in the Bank's Statement of Income. Interest on
the credits is paid by the Bank on behalf of MinFin and is shown as interest expense. IMF amounts
are revalued once a year, on advice of IMF, according to the official exchange rate of SDR to AZM
at 30 April. Unrealised revaluation differences arising from revaluation of SDR balances into Manat
are included in the Statement of Income as gains and losses from foreign currency translation.
These amounts are shown separately in the Statement of Changes in Funds Employed as a revalua-
tion reserve. Amounts to be transferred to MinFin in respect of the profit of the Bank for the current
year are, therefore, calculated after giving effect to these items in the Bank’s financial statements.

Premises, equipment, and intangible assets

Premises and equipment are stated at cost or revalued amounts, less accumulated depreciation.

Accounting balance and summary the National Bank’s financial activity

A statutory revaluation of premises and equipment was last made on 30 September 1996, in accor-
dance with the statutory regulation. The resulting revaluation surplus has been included in the
reserves. The revaluation was performed on the basis of indices, which are provided by the Cabinet
of Ministers of the Azerbaijan Republic and are designed to restate the net book value of the asset to
a level which more closely reflects market value at the time. The indices vary according to asset type
and acquisition date.

Depreciation

Depreciation is applied on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the
following rates:

Premises 2% per annum;


Furniture and equipment 12.5-20% per annum;
Computer and communication equipment 25% per annum;
Motor vehicles 10% per annum;
Intangible assets 10% per annum.

Money issued in circulation

The balance for money issued in circulation comprises Azerbaijani Manat banknotes issued by the
Bank since the introduction of the national currency in 1992. Expenses relating to production and
transportation of notes and coins are expensed as incurred. Cash in reserves held in the Bank is offset
against the balance of the amount of money issued into circulation.

Offsetting

Assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legal-
ly enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to either settle on a net
basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Interest income and expense

Interest income and expense are recognized in the statement of income on an accrual basis. Interest
income is suspended when overdue by more than 30 days and is excluded from interest income until
received. Interest income includes the discount on short-term zero coupon treasury bills held for
investment purposes and reverse repurchase agreements.

Note 26: Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current trans-
action between willing parties, except for the forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by
a quoted market price.
The estimated fair values of financial instruments have been determined by the Bank using
available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies, where they exist.
However, judgement is necessarily required to interpret market data to determine the estimated
fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the
amount the Bank could realize in a current market exchange.
Management does not believe that it is practicable to estimate the fair value of loans and term
deposits. Currently these instruments are not properly traded in the Azerbaijanian financial mar-
kets and an objective estimate of fair value is not available. The stability of the interest rate and
exchange rate environment significantly affects the fair value of financial instruments. The Bank
has from time to time significantly changed interest rates in order to support the Manat. However,
the exchange rate of the Manat against fully convertible currencies has been stable since early
1996. Management considers the interest rate and exchange rate environment when setting inter-
est rates on loans and term deposits and they intend the fair value of these instruments to approx-
imate fair value at the date of issuance. Management reduces the risk of significant fluctuations
in fair value by issuing loans and term deposits with short maturity. However , management does
not believe that an objective basis for the fair value of loans and term deposits can be obtained
with sufficient reliability in a cost-effective manner.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the Bank’s other
financial instruments.

Financial assets
For monetary assets, excluding loans, fair value approximates the carrying value and balances
denominated in foreign currencies have been translated at appropriate year-end exchange rates.
The fair values of certain financial assets carried at cost, including cash and amounts due from banks,
accrued interest and other financial assets are considered to approximate their respective carrying val-
ues due to their short-term nature and negligible credit losses.

Financial liabilities
For monetary liabilities, excluding term deposits, fair value approximates the carrying value and
balances denominated in foreign currencies have been translated at appropriate year-end exchange
rates.
The fair value of deposit liabilities without a stated maturity is the carrying amount.

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk which exists when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not
match. The table below shows all assets and liabilities classified by remaining contractual maturity. Some
of the assets may have a longer-term nature; for example loans can frequently be renewed, and accord-
ingly, short-term loans can have a longer-term duration. Overdue and rescheduled loans and advances are
included in no fixed maturity. The liquidity position of the Bank at 31 December 2000 is as follows:
