2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.9 Impairment (continued) Impairment of financial assets (continued) (vi) Restructured financing A financing that is renegotiated is derecognised if the existing agreement is cancelled and a new agreement made on substantially different terms or if the terms of an existing agreement are modified such that the renegotiated financing is a substantially different instrument. Where such financing are derecognised, the renegotiated contract is a new financing and impairment is assessed in accordance with the Group’s and the Bank’s accounting policy. Where the renegotiation of such financing are not derecognised, the gross carrying amount is recalculated based on the revised cash flows with gain or loss on modification recognised in profit or loss. Impairment continues to be assessed for significant increases in credit risk compared to the initial origination credit risk rating. (vii) Write-off The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written-off when the Group and the Bank have no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. For individual customers, the Group and the Bank have a policy of writing off the gross carrying amount when the financial asset is 180 days past due based on historical experience of recoveries of similar assets. For commercial and corporate customers, the Group and the Bank individually make an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Group and the Bank expect no significant recovery from the amount written-off. However, financial assets that are written-off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s and the Bank’s procedures for recovery of amounts due. Impairment of other assets The carrying amount of other assets (except for current tax assets and deferred tax assets) are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Reversals of impairment losses are credited to the profit or loss in the year in which the reversals are recognised.
