NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with The Policy Document on
Investment-Linked Business issued by Bank Negara Malaysia and the requirements of the certificate
document, modified by the following:
(i) for the purpose of unit pricing, investments at market value are adjusted to include future cost
of acquisitions. This is to ensure equitable unit pricing for incoming, outgoing and remaining
unit-holders;
(ii) for the purpose of unit pricing, provision for deferred tax is recognised on taxable and deductible
temporary differences using an actuarially calculated rate of 5% for Takafulink Dana Ekuiti
Dinasti, 7% for Takafulink Dana Ekuiti, and 8% for the remaining funds. The Board of Directors
are of the opinion that since these temporary differences will only be realised in the future, the
lower tax rate of 5% has been used for Takafulink Dana Ekuiti Dinasti and 7% has been used
for Takafulink Dana Ekuiti to ensure equitable unit pricing for incoming, outgoing and remaining
unit-holders; and
(iii) all deferred tax assets or liabilities arising from the temporary differences on unrealised gains or
losses are recognised.
b. Investments
Quoted investments are valued at the closing market prices at the end of the financial year. Unquoted
sukuk are valued at the prevailing prices quoted by a valuation agency since 1 April 2016.
Net unrealised gains or losses in value of investments are credited or charged to the capital account.
c. Dividend Income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
d. Profit Income
Profit income is recognised on an accrual basis.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT


to the certificateholders of the Takafulink Funds of Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad
(incorporated in Malaysia)

Report on the audit of the financial statements


Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of the Takafulink Funds of Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad (the “Funds”),
which comprise the statements of assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2023, and the statements of income
and expenditure and statements of changes in net asset value of the Funds for the year then ended, and notes to
the financial statements, including the Funds’ accounting policies, as set out on pages 50 to 79.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the
Funds as at 31 December 2023 and of their financial performance for the year then ended in accordance with the
Funds’ Accounting Policies as described in Note 2 to the financial statements.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International
Standards on Auditing. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence
we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Emphasis of matter – Basis of Accounting
We draw attention to Note 2 to the financial statements of the Funds, which describes the basis of accounting.
The financial statements of the Funds are prepared to assist the Funds in meeting the requirements as stipulated
in BNM/RH/PD 029-36 Investment-Linked Business (the “Policy Document”) issued by Bank Negara Malaysia
(“BNM”). As a result, the financial statements of the Funds may not be suitable for another purpose. Our opinion
is not modified in respect of this matter.

Independence and other ethical responsibilities


We are independent of the Funds in accordance with the By-Laws (on Professional Ethics, Conduct and Practice)
of the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (“By-Laws”) and the International Code of Ethics for Professional
Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (“IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with the By-Laws and the IESBA Code.

Independent Auditors’ Report


to the certificateholders of the Takafulink Funds of Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad
(incorporated in Malaysia)

Information other than the financial statements and auditors’ report thereon
Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad (the “Manager”) is responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the annual report of the Funds, but does not include the financial statements
of the Funds and our auditors’ report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements of the Funds does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements of the Funds, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
statements of the Funds 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 the directors of the Manager and the Manager for the financial
statements
The Manager is responsible for the preparation of financial statements of the Funds that give a true and fair view
in accordance with the Funds’ Accounting Policies as described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The Manager
is also responsible for such internal control as the Manager determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements of the Funds that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements of the Funds, the Manager is responsible for assessing the Funds’ ability
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the Manager either intends to liquidate the Funds or to cease operations, or
have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors of the Manager are responsible for overseeing the Funds’ financial reporting process. The directors of
the Manager are also responsible for ensuring that the Manager maintains proper accounting and other records
as are necessary to enable true and fair presentation of these financial statements.
TAKAFULINK FUNDS REPORT 2023 85

Independent Auditors’ Report


to the certificateholders of the Takafulink Funds of Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad
(incorporated in Malaysia)

Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements


Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Funds as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards on Auditing will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered
material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with approved standards on auditing in Malaysia and International Standards
on Auditing, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements of the Funds, 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 Manager’s internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the Manager.
86 TAKAFULINK FUNDS REPORT 2023

Independent Auditors’ Report


to the certificateholders of the Takafulink Funds of Prudential BSN Takaful Berhad
(incorporated in Malaysia)

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