The amendment hashad no effect on the financial position or performance of the Group as theGroup has not issued these type of instruments.IFRS 7 Financial instruments: Disclosures (amendment)These amendments introduced new disclosure requirements for transfersof financial assets, including disclosures for:financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety; andfinancial assets that are derecognised in their entirety but for which theentity retains continuing involvement.The amendment has had no effect on the disclosures made by the Groupas the Group did not have such derecognition transactions.Improvements to IFRSsIn May 2010 the IASB issued its third omnibus of amendments to itsstandards, primarily with a view to removing inconsistencies and clarifyingwording. There are separate transitional provisions for each standard.The adoption of the following amendments resulted in changes toaccounting policies, but did not have any impact on the financial positionor performance of the Group.IFRS 3 Business Combinations: The measurement options availablefor non-controlling interest (NCI) have been amended. Only componentsof NCI that constitute a present ownership interest that entitles theirholder to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the eventof liquidation must be measured at either fair value or at the presentownership instruments’ proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiablenet assets. All other components are to be measured at their acquisitiondate fair value.IFRS 7 Financial Instruments – Disclosures: The amendment wasintended to simplify the disclosures provided, by reducing the volumeof disclosures around collateral held and improving disclosures byrequiring qualitative information to put the quantitative information incontext. The revised standard also added an explicit statement thatqualitative disclosure should be made in the context of the quantitativedisclosures to better enable users to evaluate an entity’s exposure torisks arising from financial instruments.IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: The amendment clarifiesthat an analysis of each component of other comprehensive incomemay be presented either in the statement of changes in equity or in thenotes to the financial statements.Other amendments resulting from Improvements to IFRSs to the followingstandards did not have any impact on the accounting policies, financialposition or performance of the Group:IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Contingent consideration arising frombusiness combination prior to adoption of IRS 3 (as revised in 2008);IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Un-replaced and voluntarily replacedshare-based payment award);IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements;IAS 34 Interim Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing; andIFRIC 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments.Financial assets designated at fair valuethrough statement of incomeFinancial assets classified in this category are designated by managementon initial recognition when the following criteria are met:The designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistenttreatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets orliabilities or recognising gains or losses on them on a different basis; orThe assets are part of a group of financial assets which are managedand their performance evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordancewith a documented risk management or investment strategy; orThe financial instrument contains an embedded derivative, unless theembedded derivative does not significantly modify the cash flows, thatwould not be separately recorded.Financial assets at fair value through statement of income are recorded inthe consolidated statement of financial position at fair value. Changes infair value are recorded in ‘net gain or loss on financial assets designatedat fair value through statement of income’. Interest earned is accrued ininterest income, while dividend income is recorded in other income.Deposits and due from banks and other financial institutionsThese are stated at cost, adjusted for effective fair value hedges, less anyamounts written off and provision for impairment.Loans and advances to customersLoans and advances to customers are stated at amortised cost, adjustedfor effective fair value hedges, net of interest suspended, provision forimpairment and any amounts written off.Non-trading investment securitiesThese include bonds, equities, managed funds and other investments.Investments in managed funds comprise investments in mutual funds,private equity, real estate and credit structured products.These are classified as follows:Investments carried at amortised costAvailable-for-saleAll non-trading investments are initially recognised at cost, being the fairvalue of the consideration given, including incremental transaction costs.Investments carried at amortised costDebt instruments which could be classified as loans and advances andwhich have fixed or determinable payments but are not quoted in an activemarket are treated as investments and carried at amortised cost, adjustedfor effective fair value hedges, less provision for impairment. Premiumsand discounts on non-trading investments with fixed or determinablerepayments are amortised, using the effective interest rate method, andtaken to interest income.Available-for-saleAll other investments are classified as “available-for-sale”. After initialrecognition, available-for-sale investments are subsequently measuredat fair value, unless fair value cannot be reliably measured in whichcase they are measured at cost less impairment. Fair value changeswhich are not part of an effective hedging relationship, are reported as aseparate component of equity as cumulative changes in fair value untilthe investment is derecognised or the investment is determined to beimpaired. On derecognition or impairment the cumulative gain or losspreviously reported as “cumulative changes in fair value” within equity, isincluded in the consolidated statement of income for the year.That portion of any fair value changes relating form an effective hedgingrelationship is recognised directly in the consolidated statement of income.<strong>BBK</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2011</strong>46Trading investmentsTrading investments are held for a short-term period and are initiallyrecognised at cost being the fair value of the consideration given andsubsequently measured at fair value with any gain or loss arising froma change in fair value being included in the consolidated statement ofincome in the period in which it arises.
