5. Fair Value Of Financial Instruments<br />
Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction<br />
between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by a quoted<br />
market price.<br />
The estimated fair values of financial instruments have been determined by the <strong>Bank</strong> using available<br />
market information, where it exists, and appropriate valuation methodologies. However judgement is<br />
necessarily required to interpret market data to determine the estimated fair value. The volume of<br />
activity in financial markets is not significant. While Management has used available market<br />
information in estimating the fair value of financial instruments, the market information may not be<br />
fully reflective of the value that could be realised in the current circumstances.<br />
