In this financial year 2012/13 the Fund managed to record a surplus of TZS
164.89 billion
Board Chairman’s statement Introduction I am honoured and privileged to present the annual report of the Public Service Pensions Fund (PSPF) for the year ended 30th June 2013.The year ending 30th June 2013 was characterised by the new challenges of competitions in the industry following legal and regulatory changes brought by the Social Security (Regulatory) Act No. 8 of 2008. Despite the challenges, the Board had to ensure that the Fund achieves its operational and strategic targets underpinned by increase in new contributing members by 4 percent. I would like to commend the management and staff of PSPF for this remarkable achievement and urge them to keep up the excellent performance. In this financial year 2012/13 the Fund managed to record a surplus of TZS 164.89 billion. The surplus was a result of increased contribution resulting from increased membership and returns in investments. Investment performance has been encouraging as the net return on investments amounted to TZS 204.69 billion. This represents an increase of 129 percent from TZS 89.4 billion in year 2012. The actuarial deficit of the Fund continues to be an issue that generates much concern amongst stakeholders. This deficit is well documented and the main reason for this deficit is the payment of benefits by the Fund in respect of service prior to 1st July 1999 when the scheme was non-contributory. The Fund’s efforts to increase investment returns has not helped and we keep saying, clearly this is not good news. The Fund continues to communicate with the government to see to it that a remarkable turnaround is made as early as possible.
George D. Yambesi Chairman PSPF
The key focus of the Board of Trustees is to ensure that there is efficient and effective administration of all aspects of the Fund. The
PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

Board Chairman’s statement particular emphasis of the Trustees has been to increase Fund’s members and improve investment returns through prudent diversification of investments aimed at reducing risks and increasing returns. We also seek to minimise administrative costs taking cognizance of Fund’s resource limitation through strategies that have been outlined by Fund’s Corporate Plan document. It is my belief that implementation of Corporate Plan with emphasis on increasing number of contributing members, timely collection of contributions, prudent investments and sound financial management will foster growth of the Fund. The Board of Trustees is promising its members and entire stakeholders that it will continue upholding highest standards of governance to attain these objectives.
I believe all of us feel challenged and motivated to deliver sterling results in the coming year.
It is your expertise, your knowledge of members’ needs, and your thoughtful assessment of the problems and potential solutions that continued to make the Fund a powerful presence in the Social Security Sector in the country. We all can be proud of the Fund’s accomplishments of the past year and embark confidently on the next year.
pspf for peace of mind
Finally, On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to sincerely thank our members, employers and pensioners for their forbearance and other stakeholders for holding firm with us. I am also taking this opportunity to thank the staff of the Fund for their steadfastness. I believe all of us feel challenged and motivated to deliver sterling results in the coming year. Thank you and May God Bless us All. George D. Yambesi Chairman, PSPF Board of Trustees
Reflecting on the year 2012/2013 and on the accomplishments described in this annual report, I would like to extend my gratitude to my fellow trustees. Your participation has made a difference.

Director General’s report I am pleased to present to you the statement of financial performance for the year that ended 30th June 2013. During the period the Fund’s management focused on achieving its corporate objectives. The financial year 2012/13 was operationally good. The Fund managed to record a total of 367,402 members. Out of this number 320,860 were classified as contributing members. In the previous year (2012), contributing members stood at 309,767 showing an increase of 4 percent. The number of pensioners has grown from 36,535 in year 2012 to 46,542 in year 2013 showing an increase of 27 percent.
Mr Adam H. Mayingu Director General, PSPF
All these good performance has resulted in Fund’s assets to continue to grow from TZS 1.09 trillion as at June 2012 to TZS
1.25 trillion
as at June 2013, an increase of 14.68%. .69
The increase in contributing members and the increase in salaries during the year had a corresponding rise in contribution income collected. The contribution of TZS 516.5 billion was collected for the year 2013. This amount is 16.3 percent higher than contributions collected in year 2012 which was TZS 444.1 billion. The increase in number of pensioners from 36,535 to 46,542 together with

Director General’s report (continued)
pspf for peace of mind
the increase in number of retirees from 4,620 in year 2012 to 5,137 in year 2013 had a corresponding rise in the benefits paid. The Fund paid a total of TZS 543.7 billion to beneficiaries during the period. In year 2012, however, the amount paid to beneficiaries was TZS 360.0 billion. This represents an increase of 52.8 percent. In this year under review the Fund registered a surplus of TZS 164.89 billion in comparison to TZS 161.8 in year 2012. Investment performance has been promising and as a point of interest on investment performance the Fund achieved returns of TZS 204.69 billion. This represents an increase of 129 percent from TZS 89.4 billion in year 2012. This is a respectable result in an environment where investment opportunities are few. All these good performance has resulted in Fund’s assets to continue to grow from TZS 1.09 trillion as at June 2012 to TZS 1.25 trillion as at June 2013, an increase of 14.68%. We believe that the Fund is well-placed to provide solid investment returns in the future.
The main challenges facing the Fund include; delays by Government to pay unremitted contributions for the period before 1 July 1999, delays in collecting matured investments, an aging and impact of HIV in relation to the increasing number of widows/widowers in pension payroll, significant increase in members’ salaries few months before retirement dates, getting information or updates of retirees for the assurance of their existence, limited safe and high yielding investment opportunities and mechanisms of tracing members’ movements from one employer to another. All these challenges have been addressed in corporate plan 2012/13 to year 2016/17. We stand to our vision “to be the best social security
provider in Tanzania”, yes we can, and to achieve this we are positioning ourselves to take advantage of opportunities that will arise in financial year 2013/14 by increasing membership through voluntary registration, getting closer to our members through opening regional offices in new regions and investing in safe and high yielding investment opportunities. We remain committed to increasing the Fund assets value while serving members and other stakeholders with utmost trust. I must extend my appreciation to the Board of Trustees for their continued support and guidance and to the entire Management and staff for their dedication and a job well done.

2. ESTABLISHMENT AND MEMBERSHIP OF THE FUND (CONTINUED)
Membership to the Fund is open to any person who has been employed in the formal and informal sector. Previously and under the rule of the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999, the Fund was established to manage a defined benefit scheme in which membership was limited to pensionable employees of the Central Government and its executive agencies, including Teachers, Police and Prison Officers and Holders of Constitutional Offices.
With the enactment of the Social Security (Regulatory Authority) Act No. 8 of 2008, and subsequent amendments made to the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999, in June 2012, the Fund’s mandate changed and it now registers any employee in the public as well as private sector. The Act gives employees in both public and private sector freedom to choose a pension scheme to which they would make pension contributions.
Members and pensioners of the Fund as at 30 June 2013 were: a)
Total members 2013 2012 Contributing members 320,860 309,767 Pensioners 46,542 36,535

3. VISION
To be the provider of choice of social security services in the country
4. MISSION
The Fund is committed to providing competitive Social Security Services to our members using dedicated staff and appropriate technology.
5. SCHEMES AND FUNDING
The Fund operates two types of Social Security Schemes which are the mandatory and supplementary schemes whose design and funding is explained below. 5.1 Mandatory Scheme
Mandatory scheme is a contributory scheme which operates under defined benefit arrangement. The current contribution rates under mandatory scheme are 15% for employers and 5% for employees which make a total contribution of 20% of member’s salary. However, any contribution rates agreed between an employer and an employee that would make a total contribution rate of 20% of the employee’s salary is acceptable by the Fund.
Contributions are deducted by employers and remitted to the Fund on monthly basis with 30 days grace period. If contributions are not remitted to the Fund within 30 days from the month when salary payment is due, then additional contribution by way of penalty at the rate of 5% per month or part of the month is levied on the delayed contributions until when the contribution is remitted. These rates are determined by actuaries and are sufficient to accumulate assets to pay benefits when due. The accrued investment and such sums as may be appropriated by the Parliament for the purpose of the Fund also form part of the sources of funding.
Under the provisions of the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999, effective commencement date of the Fund with respect to collection of contributions payable to the mandatory scheme was 1 July 1999. The payment of benefits effectively commenced on 1 July 2004. The benefits accrued prior to 1 July 1999 for the Fund’s retirees are met by the Fund but require explicit funding from the Government of Tanzania. Under the transitional provisions of the said Act, all benefits falling due during the 5 year transitional period from 1 July 1999 to 30 June 2004 were paid under the Pensions Ordinance and from the Consolidated Fund. Hence no benefit payments were made from the Fund during the transitional period. 5.2 Supplementary Scheme
Mandatory scheme is a contributory scheme which operates under defined contribution arrangement. The Supplementary Scheme officially started on 7 March 2013. Minimum contribution under supplementary scheme is TZS 10,000. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR (CONTINUED) b) Significant Achievement • Implementation of ICT based bulky SMS service through which the Fund will be communicating with its members and stakeholders using short messages. This will bring about overall improvement in Fund’s communication system. •
Establishment of extensive review program of our internally generated ICTbased pension administration system to support changes in our business models and the PSPF Supplementary Scheme and
•
Enhancement of interactive website that will enable members of the Fund to obtain their contribution and other information via internet.
(iv) Comprehensive review of Fund’s policies and procedures. These include Training Policy, Staff Regulations, Financial Regulations, ICT Policy, Internal Audit Charter, Client Service Charter and Internal Audit Manual. (v) Comprehensive review of the Fund’s Performance Management System and continual improvement of Personnel Management Information Reports. (vi) Increased registration of members, improved service delivery and investment performance. c) Financial results (i) Additions
The major income streams of the Fund come from members and employers contributions, investment income and other income which include penalties, fees and commission for recoveries of loans advanced to employers.
During year ended 30 June 2013, contribution remittances increased by 16.3 per cent to TZS 516.5 billion from TZS 444.1 billion reported in the year ended 30 June 2012. The increase in contribution revenue was mainly attributed by salary increase to Government employees. Also, the Fund increased its members by 16,230 in the year ended 30 June 2013 (30 June 2012: 7,873). This increase is 106.1 per cent and is due to increased efforts in members registration. Other income increased to TZS 13.5 million from TZS 3.1 million in year ended 30 June 2012. This was mainly attributed by penalties on delayed repayments of loans and contributions.
Investment income increased by 129 per cent to TZS 204.7 billion from TZS 89.4 billion recorded in the year ended 30 June 2012. Such significant increase in investment income was attributed by recognition of interest on loan from completed government projects and repayment by the Government of the loan granted to Tanpower Resources Limited (KIWIRA Coal Mine).

8. REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR (CONTINUED) c) Financial results (continued)
The completed projects are loans to Government in respect of Police Force and Dodoma University College of Education. In addition, market prices of shares held by the Fund in various companies increased significantly. The companies that had its shares increased include Tanzania Cigarettes Company limited, Swiss port, CRDB Bank Plc, National Micro finance Bank and Tanzania Breweries Limited. As a result of increase in share prices, the Fund recorded positive changes in market values of investments to the tune of TZS 33.8 billion (30 June 2012: 10.1billion).
(ii) Deductions
The main Fund’s expenses emanate from benefits and administration expenses. Benefits are paid to eligible members of the Fund upon retirement, death and cessation of employment for any reason. The Fund recorded benefit expenses amounting to TZS 543.7 billion (30 June 2012: TZS 360.0 billion) and benefit payments amounting to TZS 373.0billion (2012: TZS 349.3 billion) representing an increase of 52.8 per cent on benefit expenses and 64.0 per cent on benefits paid. The increase in benefit payments was a result of the increase in the number of retirees, death cases and increase in Government salaries. In the year ending 30 June 2013, the number of retirees increased to 5,137 from 4,620 in year ended 30 June 2012. Trend shows that the number of members who are expected to exit in the year 2014 are 7,647 and this number is expected to increase in the next three years and this will have a financial impact on Fund’s resources.
Administration expenses amounted to TZS 26.1 billion as compared to TZS 18.8 billion in the year ended 30 June 2012, which represents an increase of 38.8 per cent. Increase in administrative costs was attributed by the increase in Fund’s activities and increase in the number of staff and their salaries. In the year ended 30 June 2013 the number of staff was 185 (30 June 2012: 140)
(iii) Net Surplus/Deficit
During the year ended 30 June 2013, the deficit from dealing with members was TZS 27.2 billion compared to surplus of TZS 88.1 billion in the year ended 30 June 2012. The deficit is a result of having benefit payments obligations which are more than streams of income from contributions. The overall net surplus was TZS 164.9 billion (30 June 2012: 161.8 billion). This overall surplus is mainly attributed by investment performance in the year 2013.

8. REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR (CONTINUED) d) Financial Position
The financial position of the Fund is as set out in the statement of net assets available for benefits on page 35. Net assets grew by 15.2 per cent from TZS 1,086.3 billion to TZS 1,251.2 billion in the year ended 30 June 2013. This was mainly due to good investment performance during the year.
Significant assets accumulation was recorded in investment property, listed equities, loans and contribution receivables. Investment property increased to 152.9 billion in the year ended 30 June 2013 from TZS 112.6 billion in the year ended 30 June 2012. This increase is a result of Fund’s investment diversification strategy to spread risk into various investment portfolios. Quoted equities increased to TZS 101.3 billion from TZS 74.7 billion in the year ended 30 June 2012. This increase is mainly due to increase in market value for all listed equities. Investment in loans increased to TZS 466.9 billion from TZS 343.6 billion in the year ended 30 June 2012. The increase was mainly due to additional loans to University of Dodoma, Police Force Project and the Prevention and Combating of Corruption Bureau (PCCB). There was also capitalisation of unremitted interest from University of Dodoma and Police Force Projects.
Contribution receivables increased to TZS 256.2 billion from TZS 139.1 billion in the year ended 30 June 2012. This was mainly caused by non-remittance of 15% contribution from Ministry of Finance for the month of May 2013 and June 2013 totalling TZS 56.0 billion and amount of contribution receivable relating to pre 1 July 1999 of TZS 184.9 billion which the Government promised to pay the Fund by the end of 30 June 2013.
9. RESOURCES
Apart from the items reflected in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits, the Fund has strengths which can assist in achieving its objectives. These strengths include competent Trustees and Management, skilled, dedicated and motivated personnel, strong networking and relationship with the Government, oversight agencies, employers, members, Trade Unions, media and other stakeholders, and strong ICT-based connectivity across all Fund’s regional offices which provides an excellent platform for superior service delivery.
10. SIGNIFICANT EXTERNAL FACTORS AFFECTING THE FUND
The Fund continues to keep a close watch, make appropriate adjustments and monitor the basic components of its external environment that affect its ability to function. Significant external factors that affect the Fund include:
Legislative Changes - the legislative framework within which the Fund operates is dynamic. Change is a constant factor and the Trustees recognise that they have to lead the Fund to meet its objectives in relation to the recent changes brought about by the regulatory regime.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
pspf for peace of mind
for the year ended 30 June 2013 (continued)
10. SIGNIFICANT EXTERNAL FACTORS AFFECTING THE FUND (continued)
The main changes include:
The law which requires the Fund to compete with other pension funds in members registration with some specified restrictions. It has eliminated the Fund’s existing monopoly with respect to the registration of employees of Central Government and its Executive Agencies. However, this has brought about additional potential members in private sectors, parastatals and local government authorities.
The regulatory requirements have also introduced additional restrictions in modus operandi and maximum thresholds with respect to the components of investments portfolio. There are also requirements relating to reporting and investments management which will mean additional man-hours and other resources to respond to the regulatory requirements.
All these changes will mean that the Fund may be limited in terms of its flexibility to take investment opportunities and increase overall transaction costs particularly in areas of compliance, registration, marketing and investment management. Demographics – an aging population and impact of HIV. This is especially the case in relation to the increasing number of young widows/widowers in pension payroll. This and the deteriorating pattern of early retirements have an impact on the amount of resources required to pay pensions over long term. At the moment the funding level does not increase in response to the growing number of pensioners and resource requirements.
Significant Increase in Benefits Obligation - Benefits obligation has been increasing more than the increase in contributions. This especially happens with the increasing number of employees having their salaries significantly increased few months before their retirement dates. As the Fund’s benefit formula take into account the last salary as having been received throughout employee’s service period, such significant salary increases towards retirement dates bring about significant impact on benefit obligations without having corresponding impact in terms of asset accumulation.
Just like legislative intervention, the risk of significant increase in members’ salaries few months before retirement dates is outside Trustees’ control, although the Trustees do their best to support the appropriateness of the Fund’s statutory objectives and the need to accumulate adequate asset for payment of pensions and other benefits to members and their beneficiaries.
Proceeds from the Government - Delays by government to pay unremitted contributions for the period before 1 July 1999 impinges on the Fund’s ability to accumulate assets as more resources from current members are used to pay for unfunded portion of retiring members.

11. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The Fund will continue to improve its service delivery and quality of service through increasing Service delivery channels and number of competent staff with required level of integrity and ethical values. The Fund will expand its regional offices in terms of both number and scope while carefully managing associated costs and risks.
The Fund has a strategic plan covering a period from 2012/13 to 2016/17. This plan sets out development trajectory of the Fund and establishes clear set of plans in the following areas: achieving sustainable growth of the Fund, efficiency and effectiveness in service delivery and workforce competency and motivation.
Specific Fund’s future plan will be: i.
Reviewing hardware infrastructure, network performance and business applications with the aim of improving efficiency and introducing additional and multiple ICTenabled service delivery channels. The Fund is targeting to provide service in a completely paperless environment by the end of its Corporate Plan in June 2017.
ii. Putting in place effective liaison mechanisms with employers and other stakeholders to ensure that all documents that are necessary for payment of benefits are obtained ahead of time to allow timely benefit payments to eligible members. i. Instituting measures to ensure collections of all statutory contributions. The Fund will also put in place strategies to ensure that real return on investment is increased on a yearly basis and that administrative and capital expenditures are controlled. There should also be a proper matching of assets and liabilities to ensure timely payment of various obligations. ii. Continuing with re-engineering of its business processes, enhancing performance measurement system, addressing customer feedback on service delivery and enhancing record management system. iii. Promoting the Fund’s corporate image through development and maintenance of public relations and properly managing corporate social investment programs. iv. Continuing with registration of members employed in the formal sector in both public and private sectors at all levels and in all types of employment contracts in the Mandatory Scheme. The Fund will also make sufficient market campaigns to register members from diverse milieux and sectors in the Supplementary Scheme. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

14. SOLVENCY EVALUATION
As already stated under Schemes and Funding, the effective commencement date of the Fund with respect to collection of contributions payable to the mandatory scheme was 1 July 1999. The payment of benefits effectively commenced on 1 July 2004. The benefits accrued prior to 1 July 1999 for the Fund’s retirees are met by the Fund but require explicit funding from the Government.
Based on the last actuarial valuation report, that was completed as at 30 June 2010 by Genesis Actuarial Solutions Limited, an independent firm of actuaries, the financial position of the Fund has deteriorated over the three years period since the previous actuarial valuation that was completed as at 30 June 2007.
As at 30 June 2010, the total value of liabilities amounted to TZS 7,219,513 million (30 June 2007: 3,374,695 million). The value placed on the Fund’s assets as at 30 June 2010 was TZS 732,382 million (30 June 2007: 492,385). This valuation revealed an actuarial deficit of TZS 6,487,131 million as at 30 June 2010 (30 June 2007: 2,882,310 million) and is attributed by the unremitted contributions for the period prior to 1 July 1999.
The provision of section 46 of the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999, gives the Fund guarantees that the Government will help it out when it is unable to meet its obligations. This guarantee was also affirmed by a letter from the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Finance with reference number C/HC: 191/338/01/021 of 15 June 2009.
14. SOLVENCY EVALUATION (CONTINUED) In an effort to address the shortfall, on 5 March 2012, the Government made a commitment to pay TZS 716.6 billion over the period of 10 years as per letter with reference C/CA.486/607/02/99 dated 5 March 2012. The amount relates to benefits paid by the Fund up to 30 June 2010 of which the Government has already paid TZS 30.0 billion by 30 June 2013. In the year 2013/14, the Government paid an additional amount of TZS 30.0 billion.
Also, in June 2013, the Government formed a team to study and recommend on the best possible ways to finance the actuarial shortfall within the framework of Actuarial recommendations and the broader Government’s budgetary provisions. Members of the team were drawn from the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Labour, the Public Service Pensions Fund, the Social Security Regulatory Authority and the Bank of Tanzania. The team has just completed its task and recommendations have already been submitted to the Government.
Being an entity with the government guarantee as aforesaid, the Fund is a going concern despite its actuarial shortfall that emanated from unremitted contributions. The Board of Trustees has reasonable expectation that the Fund has and will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

The four years cash flow projection based on the current structure of benefits and contributions shows that the benefits payments will be higher than the contribution income for two years. The Fund’s cash projections indicate that future cash flows will mostly be generated from investment activities. Cash generation from investment activities in turn is dependent upon repayments of loan granted to Government’s projects and repayment of actuarial shortfall by the Government.
The future cash flow projections of the Fund will be significantly affected by the timing of remittance of contributions, proceeds from the Government, payments of terminal benefits and payment of pre-retirement loans to members. For the next financial year 2014, these cash movement items are expected to be as follows:
16. CASH FLOW PROJECTION a) Contribution remittances b) Proceeds from repayment of loans granted to Government c) Proceeds from repayment of actuarial shortfalls d) Payments of terminal benefits e) Payment of loans to members
30 June 2014 TZS’000 539,184.69 40,155.87
June 2013 TZS ‘00030 379,450,099 6,000,000

(522,322,380) (50,100.00)
(572,989,751) (31,333,865)
With the increasing actuarial shortfall and the decreasing cash flow trend, an early cash injection by the Government is indispensable to bring the Fund’s financial position to the desired level.
17. TRUSTEES’ REMUNERATION

18. FUND’S REMUNERATION POLICY
The Fund has in place processes and procedures for determining remuneration paid to its Key Management Personnel and other employees. Management normally prepares a proposal for emoluments payable to management and employees. This is done after having conducted a market survey to ensure that market-related salaries are paid and that market-related trends are followed in terms of changes in employees’ benefits. Management, at the same time, take intoaccount the intrinsic value of individual contributions into the Fund’s performance. The proposal is then forwarded to Board for consideration and approval.
Trustees’ remunerations are paid after having been approved by the Minister responsible for Finance who receives a proposal from the Fund which is normally prepared after having considered remuneration of trustees in similar entities in the Public Sector and the Fund’s performance.
19. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Fund is committed to the principles of effective corporate governance and the Board is of the opinion that the Fund currently complies with the principles of good Corporate Governance. Good governance requires professionalism, transparency, and accountability. The Fund has put in place internal mechanisms to ensure that this is achieved. These mechanisms include structure and practices of the Board, Management, Employees’ roles and Whistle Blower Policy. a) The Board of Trustees
The Board is comprised of eight trustees with diverse skills and knowledge all of whom are non-executive. A non-executive Chairman is by law appointed by the President. The other trustees are appointed by the Minister responsible for Finance for tenure of three years renewable. However, the trustees who are appointed by the Minister are representatives of the statutory positions mentioned in the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999.

20. MEMBERS AND STAKEHOLDERS RELATIONS
The Fund issues various member guides that help them understand Fund’s services and requirements with respect to registration, benefits offered and qualifying conditions for various benefits. Also, the Fund has a Client Service Charter that enables members and other stakeholders to know Fund’s promises, and their rights as well as obligations in connection with the services and benefits offered by the Fund.
The Fund holds one meeting annually with members and stakeholders to discuss matters relating to governance and performance.

These stakeholders include employers, employees, suppliers, service providers, consultants, contractors and regulatory authorities.
21. INDUCTION AND TRAINING
Appropriate training is provided to the Trustees, Management and employees of the Fund in accordance with the result of needs assessment.
In particular, Trustees attended training in the areas relating to management of pension funds, investments and risk management. The key objective of conducting trainings to trustees is for the Fund to obtain the services of the Trustees who are both competent and independent-minded.
The Board believes that the improved performance and governance process is a direct result of the training which the Trustees, Management and Employees are exposed to. As a result of the exposure, for example, the Fund has reviewed its risk management practices through reviewing the Risk Management Framework, Policy and Plan.
22. ADMINISTRATIVE EFFICIENCY
The Fund has not borrowed funds and consequently no interest charges have accrued against the Fund. All statutory payments such as Pay As You Earn (PAYE), pension contributions and other statutory deductions from fees, and other services were remitted promptly to the relevant tax authorities.
All properties of the Fund have requisite certificates of ownership and are adequately insured. No significant loss of assets was sustained during the year under review. The existing management systems were invariably complied with. This has resulted in smooth operations of the Fund.

The Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999 requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the Fund’s financial affairs as at the end of the year and of the operating results of the Fund for the year. It also requires the Trustees to ensure that the Fund keeps proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Fund. They are also responsible for the safeguarding the assets of the Fund. The Trustees are responsiblefor the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999 and for such internal controls as Trustees determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

Box 4843 Dar es Salaam REPORT OF THE CONTROLLER AND AUDITOR GENERAL ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF PUBLIC SERVICE PENSIONS FUND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 June 2013 I have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Public Service Pensions Fund(PSPF) which comprise the statement of net assets value available for benefits as at 30 June2013,statement of changes in net assetsvalue available for benefits, and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes set out from pages 37to 81of the report. Trustees’ Responsibility for the financial statement The Trustees are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with InternationalFinancial Reporting Standards and the requirements of Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999 and for such internal controls as Trustees determine are necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error. Responsibilities of the Controller and Auditor General My responsibility as an auditor is to express an independent opinion on the financial statements based on the audit. The audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, International Standardsof Supreme Audit Institutions and such other audit procedures I considered necessary in the circumstances. These standards require that I comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making the risk assessments, I considered the internal control relevant to the Fund’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 Fund’s internal control.

AUDIT REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2013 (continued)
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, Sect 10(2) of the Public Audit Act of 2008 requires me to satisfy myself that the accounts have been kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; reasonable precautions have been taken to safeguard the collection of revenue, the receipt, custody, disposal, issue and proper use of public property, and that the law, directions and instructions applicable thereto have been duly observed, expenditures of public monies have been properly authorized. Furthermore, Sect. 44(2) of the Public Procurement Act No. 21 of 2004 and Reg. No 31 of the Public Procurement (goods, works, non-consultant services and disposal of public assets by Tender) Regulations issued under G.N 97 of 2005 requires me to state in my annual audit report whether or not audited entity has complied with the provisions of the law and its regulations. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion. Unqualified Opinion In my opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Fund as at 30 June2013 and of the disposition at that date of its assets and liabilities, other than liability to pay pensions and benefits falling due after the end of the year in accordance with theInternational Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Public Service Retirement Benefit Act No. 2 of 1999. Emphasis of matter Without qualifying my opinion, I draw attention to Note 2 to the financial statements which indicates that based on Actuarial Valuation carried out in 2010, the Fund has actuarial deficit of TZS 6.49 trillion. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern. I draw attention to Note 22 to the financial statements, the Fund has recognized TZS 107,843,083,000 used to finance the construction of the College of Education of The University of Dodoma as a loan which is contrary to the contract terms which states that the project is in the form of Design, Build, Own and Transfer the building where by the Fund will in turn receive rent calculated on the basis of cost of investment and interest on investment i.e. 15% over a period of 10 years.

REPORTING ENTITY
The Public Service Pensions Fund is a social security institution established by the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No. 2 of 1999. The main purpose is to provide for collection of contributions and payment of terminal benefits to members. The Fund is operated under two different schemes. These are: PSPF Mandatory Scheme and PSPF Supplementary Scheme of which membership is voluntary. 2.
Details on membership are as included in the Report of the Board of Trustees.
The effective commencement date of the Fund was 1 July 1999. However, under the Transitional Provisions of the Act, the Fund was given a grace period of five years. Consequently, all benefits falling due during the 5 year transitional period from 1 July 1999 to 30 June 2004 were paid by the Ministry of Finance from the Consolidated Fund. No benefits were paid from the Fund during the transitional period. The payments of benefits under the provisions of the Act effectively commenced from 1 July 2004. The benefits accruing prior to 1 July 1999 for the Fund’s current in-service members are to be met by the Fund but require explicit funding from the Government of Tanzania.
Based on the last actuarial valuation report, that was completed as at 30 June 2010 by Genesis Actuarial Solutions Limited, an independent firm of actuaries, the financial position of the Fund has deteriorated over the three years period since the previous actuarial valuation. The valuation revealed an actuarial deficit of TZS 6,487,131 million as at 30 June 2010.
The actuarial present value of promised retirement benefits is as follows:

SOLVENCY OF THE FUND (CONTINUED)
The payments of benefits under the provisions of the Act effectively commenced from 1 July 2004. The benefits accruing prior to 1 July 1999 for the Fund’s current in-service members are met by the Fund but require explicit funding from the Government of Tanzania. The actuarial shortfall is attributed by the unfunded contributions relating to the service prior to 1st July 1999.
The financial assumptions that were used in the actuarial valuation are set out below:
Summary of core actuarial basis for 2010 valuation
Discount rate
8.0% per annum
Earnings growth
7.5% per annum
Pension increases
0.00 per annum
Inflation rate
6.50 per annum
No allowance has been made for any increase to pensions on the basis that no provision is made for explicit pension increases in the Public Services Retirement Benefit Act No. 2 of 1999.
The principal demographic assumption on mortality is based on standard tables. Inservice employees’ mortality is based on the A49/52 Ultimate Table of assured lives published by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. In-retirement mortality is based on the A(55) Mortality Tables for Annuitants published by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries.

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and the requirements of the Public Service Retirement Benefit Act No 2 of 1999. Additional information required by regulatory bodies is included where appropriate.
4.
BASIS OF PREPATION
The financial statements summarise the transactions of the Fund and deal with the net assets at the disposal of the Trustees. They do not take account of obligations to pay pensions and benefits that fall due after the end of the year. The actuarial position of the Fund, which sets out these obligations, is set out in Note 2 to the financial statements.
The financial statements are presented in Tanzania Shillings (TZS), rounded to the nearest thousand, and prepared under the historical cost basis, except where otherwise stated in the accounting policies set forth in Note 6.

BASIS OF PREPATION (CONTINUED) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Fund’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 7. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
a) Amendments to published standards effective for the year ended 30 June 2013
The following amendments to IFRSs have been applied in the current year and have had no material impact on the amounts and/or disclosures reported in these financial statements.
Amendments to IFRS 7 Disclosure - Transfer of Financial Assets
The amendments to IFRS 7 increase the disclosure requirements for transactions involving transfers of financial assets. These amendments are intended to provide greater transparency around risk exposures of transactions where a financial asset is transferred but the transferor retains some level of continuing exposure in the asset.
The application of the amendment had no effect on the Fund’s financial statements as the Fund did not transfer any such financial assets during the year.
Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income
Other than the above mentioned presentation changes, the application of the amendments to IAS 1 has not resulted into any impact on profit or loss, other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income.
The amendments to IAS 1 introduce new terminology for the statement of comprehensive income and income statement. Under the amendments to IAS 1, the ‘statement of comprehensive income’ is renamed the ‘statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income’ and the ‘income statement’ is renamed the ‘statement of profit or loss’. The amendments to IAS 1 retain the option to present profit or loss and other comprehensive income in either a single statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. However, the amendments to IAS 1 require items of other comprehensive income to be grouped into two categories in the other comprehensive income section: (a) items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss and (b) items that may be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met.

ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (continued)
b) New and amended standards and interpretations in issue but not yet effective in the year ended 30 June 2013 (continues)
Key requirements of IFRS 9: •
All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement to be subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair value at the end of subsequent accounting periods. In addition, under IFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss.
•
With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS 9 requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability, that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability, is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability’s credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Previously, under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss was presented in profit or loss.
The directors anticipate that IFRS 9 will be adopted in the Fund’s financial statements for the annual period beginning 1 January 2015 and that the application of IFRS 9 may have a significant impact on amounts reported in respect of the Fund’s financial assets and financial liabilities. However, it is not practicable to provide a reasonable estimate of that effect until a detailed review is done.
New and revised Standards on consolidation, joint arrangements, associates and disclosures
In May 2011, a package of five Standards on consolidation, joint arrangements, associates and disclosures was issued, including IFRS 10, IFRS 11, IFRS 12, IAS 27 (as revised in 2011) and IAS 28 (as revised in 2011).

ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (continued)
b) New and amended standards and interpretations in issue but not yet effective in the year ended 30 June 2013 (continues) Key requirements of these five Standards are described below. IFRS 10 replaces the parts of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements that deal with consolidated financial statements. SIC-12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities will be withdrawn upon the effective date of IFRS 10. Under IFRS 10, there is only one basis for consolidation, that is, control. In addition, IFRS 10 includes a new definition of control that contains three elements: (a) power over an investee, (b) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and (c) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns. Extensive guidance has been added in IFRS 10 to deal with complex scenarios.
New and revised Standards on consolidation, joint arrangements, associates and disclosures
IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures. IFRS 11 deals with how a joint arrangement of which two or more parties have joint control should be classified. SIC-13 Jointly Controlled Entities – Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers will be withdrawn upon the effective date of IFRS 11. Under IFRS 11, joint arrangements are classified as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangements. In contrast, under IAS 31, there are three types of joint arrangements: jointly controlled entities, jointly controlled assets and jointly controlled operations. In addition, joint ventures under IFRS 11 are required to be accounted for using the equity method of accounting, whereas jointly controlled entities under IAS 31 can be accounted for using the equity method of accounting or proportional consolidation. IFRS 12 is a disclosure standard and is applicable to entities that have interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and/or unconsolidated structured entities. In general, the disclosure requirements in IFRS 12 are more extensive than those in the current standards. In June 2012, the amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 were issued to clarify certain transitional guidance on the application of these IFRSs for the first time.
These five standards together with the amendments regarding the transition guidance are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted provided all of these standards are applied at the same time.

ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (continued)
b) New and amended standards and interpretations in issue but not yet effective in the year ended 30 June 2013 (continues)
The Fund will apply these amendments prospectively. The directors anticipate that the application of IFRS 10 and IFRS 11 will have no material impact to the Fund’s financial statements currently. However, the Fund would have to apply this standard to any such arrangements entered in the course of its expansion strategy. The directors anticipate that the application of IFRS 12 would result in more extensive disclosures in the financial statements.
IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement IFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements. The Standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The scope of IFRS 13 is broad; it applies to both financial instrument items and non-financial instrument items for which other IFRSs require or permit fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements, except in specified circumstances. In general, the disclosure requirements in IFRS 13 are more extensive than those required in the current standards. For example, quantitative and qualitative disclosures based on the three-level fair value hierarchy currently required for financial instruments only under IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures will be extended by IFRS 13 to cover all assets and liabilities within its scope. IFRS 13 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted.
The directors anticipate that the application of the new Standard may affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and result in more extensive disclosures in the financial statements, however, the Fund is yet to assess IFRS 13’s full impact and intends to adopt the standard no later than the accounting period beginning on or after 1 January 2013.
Amendments to IFRS 7 and IAS 32 Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities and the related disclosures
The amendments to IAS 32 clarify existing application issues relating to the offset of financial assets and financial liabilities requirements. Specifically, the amendments clarify the meaning of ‘currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off’ and ‘simultaneous realisation and settlement’.
The amendments to IFRS 7 require entities to disclose information about rights of offset and related arrangements (such as collateral posting requirements) for financial instruments under an enforceable master netting agreement or similar arrangement.

the year ended 30 June 2013 (continues) The amendments to IFRS 7 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013 and interim periods within those annual periods. The disclosures should be provided retrospectively for all comparative periods. However, the amendments to IAS 32 are not effective until annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2014, with retrospective application required.
The directors anticipate that the application of these amendments to IAS 32 and IFRS 7 may result in more disclosures being made with regard to offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities in the future.
IAS 19 Employee Benefits
The amendments to IAS 19 change the accounting for defined benefit plans and termination benefits. The most significant change relates to the accounting for changes in defined benefit obligations and plan assets. The amendments require the recognition of changes in defined benefit obligations and in fair value of plan assets when they occur, and hence eliminate the ‘corridor approach’ permitted under the previous version of IAS 19 and accelerate the recognition of past service costs. The amendments require all actuarial gains and losses to be recognised immediately through other comprehensive income in order for the net pension asset or liability recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position to reflect the full value of the plan deficit or surplus. Furthermore, the interest cost and expected return on plan assets used in the previous version of IAS 19 are replaced with a ‘net-interest’ amount, which is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset.
The amendments to IAS 19 require retrospective application.
The directors anticipate that the amendments to IAS 19 will be adopted in the Fund’s financial statements for the annual period beginning 1 January 2013 and that the application of the amendments to IAS 19 will not have an impact on the financial statements because the Fund does not have defined benefit plans.
Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009 – 2011 Cycle issued in May 2012
The Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009 – 2011 Cycle include a number of amendments to various IFRSs. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. Amendments to IFRSs include: • • •

b) New and amended standards and interpretations in issue but not yet effective in the year ended 30 June 2013 (continues)
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements
The amendments to IAS 1 clarify that an entity is required to present a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the preceding period (third statement of financial position) only when the retrospective application of an accounting policy, restatement or reclassification has a material effect on the information in the third statement of financial position and that the related notes are not required to Fund the third statement of financial position.
The amendments also clarify that additional comparative information is not necessary for periods beyond the minimum comparative financial statement requirements of IAS 1. However, if additional comparative information is provided, the information should be presented in accordance with IFRSs, including related note disclosure of comparative information for any additional statements included beyond the minimum comparative financial statement requirements. Presenting additional comparative information voluntarily would not trigger a requirement to provide a complete set of financial statements.
The directors anticipate that the amendments to IAS 1 will result in the Fund presenting a statement of financial position at the beginning of the preceding period (third statement of financial position) only when the restatement or reclassification has a material effect on the information in the financial statements.
IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment
The amendments to IAS 16 clarify that spare parts, stand-by equipment and servicing equipment should be classified as property, plant and equipment when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment in IAS 16 and as inventory otherwise.
The directors do not anticipate that the amendments to IAS 16 will have a significant effect on the Fund’s financial statements.
IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation
The amendments to IAS 32 clarify that income tax relating to distributions to holders of an equity instrument and to transaction costs of an equity transaction should be accounted for in accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes.
The directors anticipate that the amendments to IAS 32 will have no effect on the Fund’s financial statements as the Fund has already adopted this treatment. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all year presented, unless otherwise stated.
(a) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Fund and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when payment is made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding, where applicable, discounts, rebates and Value Added Tax. (i) Contributions
Employers’ and employees’ contributions are accounted for in the period in which they fall due. The contributions are accounted for on accrual basis. Accrual is made based on actual salaries paid to members of the Fund.
(ii) Interest income
For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost and interest-bearing financial assets classified as available for sale, interest income or expense is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability. Interest income is included in investment income in the statement of changes in net assets.
(iii) Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the Fund’s right to receive payment is established.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) (iv) Penalty income
Where an employer fails to remit to the Fund the whole or any part of the contributions required to be remitted within 30 days after the end of the month to which the contributions relate, a penalty of 5 % of the unremitted amount is levied for every month or part of the month delayed. Penalty income is recognised on accrual basis based on delayed contributions which have been received. (v)
Rent income Rent income is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for occupying the Fund’s investment property in the normal course of business, net of discounts and related value added taxes. Rent income is recognized on straight line basis over the lease term.
(vi) Other Income
Other income is recognised when the Fund’s right to receive payment is established.
(b) Benefits payable
Pensions and other benefits payable are taken into account in the period in which they fall due.
(c) Translation of foreign currencies
The Fund’s financial statements are presented in Tanzanian Shillings (TZS), which is also the Fund’s functional and presentation currency.
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rates of exchange ruling at the transaction date. At each financial reporting date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items, on the retranslation of monetary items, and on the retranslation of non-monetary items carried at fair value are recognised in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits in the period in which they arise.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(d) Property and equipment
Property and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated losses, if any. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Fund and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statement of changes in net assets available for benefit during the period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method to write down the cost of asset to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows: Buildings
2%
Furniture and fittings
20%
Machines and equipment
20%
Computer hardware
25%
Motor vehicles
25%
The estimated assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An item of property and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from continued use of the asset.
Gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amounts and are taken into account in determining operating surplus/ deficit.
(e) Work in progress
Construction in progress includes accumulated cost of buildings which is under construction or for which cost has been incurred, but which is not yet ready for use by the Fund. It also includes cost incurred for assets being constructed by third parties, assets which have not been delivered to, or installed in, the facility and assets which cannot be used until certain other assets are acquired and installed. Where there is a significant interval between the time at which cost is incurred in connection with the acquisition of an asset and when the asset will be ready for use, the cost is accumulated in work in progress. Construction in progress is not depreciated, since by the definition it is not yet ready for use. At the time the asset is ready for use, the accumulated cost is to be transferred to the appropriate category and depreciation starts. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(e) Work in progress
An item of work in progress is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from de recognition of the Work in Progress (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount) is included in the statement of changes in net assets in the year the Work in Progress is derecognized.
(f) Intangible assets
Acquired computer software are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring into use the specific software. Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is reflected on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over their useful economic lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that an intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible assets.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the intangible asset are accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.
These costs are amortised over their useful lives. The annual rate used is 25% per annum.
(g) Inventories Inventory constitutes low cost houses constructed for sale to members and the general public. Other stock and store items do not accumulate in inventory as they are ordered when required for use. Cost of low cost hoses is recognized as construction cost and included in the Work in Progress. Other stock and store items, if any, are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of other stock and store items are recognized as expense in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(h) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception date. The arrangement is assessed for whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement. •
Fund as a lessee
Operating lease payments are recognised as an operating expense in the statement of changes in net assets on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Finance leases which transfer to the Fund substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item are capitalised at the commencement of the lease at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease liability in order to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognised in the statement of changes in net assets.
A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. If, however, there is no reasonable certainty that the Fund will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
• Leasehold land
Payments to acquire leasehold interest in land are treated as prepaid operating leases. No amortisation is charged for land or land improvements as land is considered to have an unlimited useful life and its salvage value is unlikely to be less than its acquisition cost.
•
Fund as a lessor
Leases in which the Fund does not transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(i) Investment property Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value, which reflect market conditions at the balance sheet date. In order to ascertain the fair value, investment properties are revalued after every three years. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are included in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the period in which they arise.
An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of changes in net assets in the period in which the property is derecognised.
Transfers are made to or from investment property when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If owner occupied property becomes an investment property, the Fund accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under property and equipment up to the date of change in use.
(j) Investment in associate
The Fund’s investment in its associate is accounted using the equity method. An associate is an entity in which the Fund has significant influence. Under the equity method, the investment in the associate is carried in the statement of net assets available for benefit at cost plus post acquisition changes in the Fund’s share of net assets of the associate.
The statement of changes in net assets reflects the share of the results of operations of the associate. Where there has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the associate, the Fund recognises its share of any changes and discloses this, when applicable.
Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Fund and the associate are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate. The share of profit of an associate is shown on the face of the statement of changes in net assets.
This is the profit attributable to equity holders of the associate and therefore is profit after tax and non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of the associate. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2013 (continued
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(j) Investment in associate (continued)
After application of the equity method, the Fund determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on the Fund’s investment in its associate. The Fund determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Fund calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the ‘share of profit of an associate’ in the statement of changes in net assets.
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, the Fund measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in the statement of changes in net assets. (k) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets
The Fund assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Fund estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
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. In determining fair value less costs to sell, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators. Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in statement of changes in net assets in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset, An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Fund estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(k) Impairment of tangible and intangible assets (continued) The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the statement of changes in net assets unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. (l) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of net assets available for benefits comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with a maturity of three months or less. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at amortised cost in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
(m) Employees benefits
Employee benefits include short-term benefits (for example, wages and salaries, annual leave), post-employment benefits such as retirement benefits, other long-term benefits (for example, long service leave) and termination benefits. •
Short-term in service entitlements
Cost of providing employee wages, salaries and other allowances is recognised in the period in which the benefit is earned by the employee. The estimated monetary liability for employees accrued leave entitlement as at the date of the statement of net assets available for benefits is recognised as an expense accrual. Provision is made for the estimated liability in respect of annual leave accrued on reporting date.
•
Post-employment benefits
As part of post-employment benefits to employees, the Fund makes retirement contribution to one of the mandatory pension schemes of an employee’s choice. All of the Fund’s employees are members of the Public Service Pensions Fund (PSPF), National Social Security Fund (NSSF), the PPF Pensions Fund (PPF), or Government Employees Provident Fund (GEPF). While GEPF operate under defined contribution arrangement, all other schemes are defined benefit plans. These plans are prescribed by Laws. PSPF annual REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30Th JUNE 2013

(m) Employees benefits (continued)
Both the Fund and the employees contribute 10% of the employees’ gross salaries to the PPF. To PSPF, the Fund and employees contribute respectively 15% and 5% of the employees’ basic salaries. For the GEPF, the Fund contributes 15% and the employee contributes 5%. The contribution is charged to the Statement of changes in net assets when incurred.
Under the laws establishing the plans, the sponsor of all mandatory schemes is the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania. Thus, the Fund does not have any legal or constructive obligation to pay further contribution to the defined benefit plans or any of the mandatory plans if the plans do not hold sufficient assets to pay benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior period. •
Termination benefits
Terminal benefits are expensed in the year of termination of employment.
•
Other long term benefits
Other long term benefits are recognised as expenses on accrual basis.
(n) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Fund has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Fund expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in statement of changes in net assets net of any reimbursement.
(o) Taxation
The Fund is tax exempt under section 47 of the Public Service Retirement Benefits Act No 3 of 1999 (as amended). Thus, provision for deferred tax is not applicable. Nonetheless, the Fund collects Value Added Tax on behalf of the Tax Authority and recovers Value Added Tax from the Tax Authority.
With respect to the Value Added Tax, revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Value Added Tax except where the Value Added Tax is not recoverable from the taxation authority, in which case the Value Added Tax is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable.

(o) Taxation (continued)
The net amount of Value Added Tax recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
(p) Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Fund becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial Assets
The Fund classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments, and available-for-sale financial assets. Management determines the classification of investments at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at every reporting date. i.
Financial Assets at Fair Value through profit and loss A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term (assets held for trading) or if so designated by the Trustees. Derivatives are also categorized as held for trading unless they are designated as hedging instruments. The Fund classifies trading equity investment as financial assets at fair value.
ii. Loans and Receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.They arise when the Fund provides money or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable. All loans and receivables held by the Fund fall under this category. iii. Held-to-Maturity
Held-to-Maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Fund has a positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. The Fund classifies its investments in fixed income assets as held-to-maturity i.e. investments in government securities, corporate bonds and placement with banks.

Available for sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated as available for sale or are not classified as (a) loans and receivables, (b) heldto-maturity investments or (c) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The Fund classifies equity investments, other than those acquired for trading purposes as available-for-sale. Investments in redeemable preference shares and Umoja Units are also classified by the Fund as available for sale financial assets.
Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets
Purchase and sale of investments are recognized on trade date on which the Fund commits to purchase or sale the asset. Loans and receivables are recognized on the day the funds are advanced or when an invoice is raised. Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value or at cost plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flow from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Fund has subsequently transferred all risks and rewards of ownership.
At subsequent reporting date different classes of financial assets are measured as follows:
i.
Loans and Receivables
Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Receivables which do not carry interest rate are stated at their nominal value. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognized in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits when there is objective evidence that the Fund will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. ii. Held-to-Maturity Financial Instruments
Held-to-maturity investments are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment loss recognized to reflect irrecoverable amounts.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (p) Financial instruments (continued) iii. Available-for-sale Financial Instruments
Available-for-sale investments are measured at fair value except for investments for which fair value cannot be reliably measured. The fair values of quoted investments are based on current bid prices. If the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), the Fund establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value in respect of available-for-sale investments are included in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the period.
Investments for which fair value cannot be reliably measured are measured at cost less any identified impairment losses at the end of each reporting period. (q) Impairment of Financial Assets
The Fund assesses at each reporting date whether there is objective evidence that a financial assets or a group of financial assets is impaired. An impairment loss is recognized in the Statement of changes in Net assets available for benefits when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. Impairment loss on financial assets other than equity securities classified as available for-sale is measured as the difference between the investment’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition.
In the case of equity securities classified as available-for-sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered in determining whether the securities are impaired. Impairment losses are reversed in subsequent periods when an increase in the investment’s recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, subject to the restriction that, in case of held-to-maturity investments, the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed shall not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized. (r) Comparatives
Where necessary, comparative figures have been re-grouped and re-classified to conform to changes in presentation in the current year.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINITY
In the process of applying the Fund’s accounting policies, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These are dealt with below: Held -to-maturity investments
The Fund follows the guidance of IAS 39; Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement on classifying non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity as held-to-maturity. This classification requires significant judgment. In making this judgment, the Fund evaluates its intention and ability to hold such investments to maturity. If the Fund fails to keep these investments to maturity other than for the specific circumstances – for example, selling an insignificant amount close to maturity – it will be required to reclassify the entire class as available-forsale. The investments would therefore be measured at fair value not amortised cost. Impairment losses on financial assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Fund reviews the carrying amounts of its financial assets to determine whether there is any indication that these assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated and an impairment loss is recognized in the statement of changes in net asset whenever the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Actuarial valuation
The value of the defined benefit scheme is determined by Actuaries after carrying out actuarial valuation. The actuarial valuation involves making assumptions about discount rates, expected rates of return on assets, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the long term nature of these plans, such estimates are subject to significant uncertainty. The summary of actuarial valuation report has been presented under clause eight of the Trustees’ Report. Property and equipment
Management reviews the useful lives and residual values of the items of property and equipment on a regular basis. During the financial year, the board of trustees determined no significant changes in the useful lives and residual values.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Fund is exposed to a variety of financial risks which arise out of a variety of its activities. The Fund’s risk management policies are designed to identify and analyse these risks, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor the risks and adherence to limits by means of reliable and up-to-date information systems. The Fund’s regularly reviews its risk management policies and systems to reflect changes in markets, products and emerging best practice.
The Board of Trustees has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Fund’s risk management framework. As part of its governance structure the Board of Trustees has embedded a comprehensive risk management framework for measuring, monitoring, controlling and mitigation of the Fund’s risks. The policies are integrated in the overall management information system of the Fund’s and supplemented by a management reporting structure.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees is responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s risk management policies and procedures, and review of the adequacy of risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Fund. This committee is assisted in these functions by Technical Committee of management which undertakes both regular and ad-hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Board.
The most important type of risks are: • Solvency risk • Credit risk • Liquidity risk • Market risk o Interest rate risk o Foreign exchange risk o Price risk
The notes below provide detailed information on each of the above risks and the Fund’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk. Solvency risk management
The major scheme run by the Fund is a defined benefit scheme whereby members’ benefits are guaranteed irrespective of returns from investments. The Fund thus assumes funding risk in case the Fund’s assets are inadequate to cover the promised benefits. The Fund engages actuarial consultants to determine the present value of promised benefits to members, after every three years. In case of under-funding different options are sought to address the funding including adjusting retirement age, determination of annual pensionable emoluments and increasing contribution rates. In compliance with the Social Security (Regulatory Authority) Act No 8 of 2008, the last actuarial valuation for the scheme was carried out in 2010.

Apart from the loans and advances to customers and receivables, all other credit exposures are neither past due nor impaired. IV. Collateral held The Fund holds collateral against loan investments in the form of security deposit under lien mortgage over property, registered securities over assets, andguarantees by the Government of Tanzania. Estimates of fair values are based on the value of collateral assessed at the time of issue of loans, and reviewed after every three years. Security structures and legal covenants are also subjected to regular review to ensure they continue to fulfil their intended purpose. The Fund does not hold collateral against government securities. Fair Value of financial assets and liabilities The table below shows an analysis of financial instruments at fair value by level of the fair value hierarchy. The financial instruments are grouped into levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable: i) Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; ii) Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as a price) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and iii)Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 8. FINANCIAL FINANCIAL RISK 8. RISK MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT(continued) (Continued) Market risk management management Market risk Market risk is the risk of changes in value of net assets of the Fund as a result of adverse price movement for investments held by the Fund. The Fund is exposed to market risk in its long term investments in fixed income assets resulting from movement in interest rates. The Fund is also exposed to market risk in equities and property investments as a result of movement in market prices. Except for trading equities, the Fund holds such assets for income generation, hence mitigating the effect of short term price movement. (i)
Interest rate risk management
The Fund invests in long term instruments when interest rates are considered to be temporarily high so as to take advantage of high interest rate for a long period. The Fund on the other hand invests in short term instruments when interest rates are considered to be temporarily low. Investment Committee forms its view on interest rates before the strategy to invest is determined. Market Risk has been subdivided into interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. The Fund holds government securities and loan investments with fixed interest rates with exception of some corporate bonds with floating interest rates. If the price of floating interest rate securities/units were to appreciate/depreciate by 5% the return on investment would have increased/decreased by TZS 678,702,791. (ii) Foreign exchange risk management The foreign exchange risk (or currency risk) is the risk arising from changes in the value of foreign currencies. However, the Fund has no significant foreign currency transactions and therefore the Fund’s currency risk is ranked as low. (iii) Price risk management The Fund is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments in quoted shares classified at fair value through profit or loss. The Fund is also exposed to the risk that the value of debt securities will fluctuate due to changes in market value. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity and debt securities, the Fund diversifies its portfolio. For equities, the Fund has invested in companies in different sectors of the economy, while for debt securities; the Fund has invested in bonds of varying maturities. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with Investment Policy of the Fund. All quoted shares held by the Fund are traded on the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange (DSE). If the price of securities/units were to appreciate/depreciate by 5% the return on investment would have increase/decrease by TZS 4,877,966,000(30 June 2012: TZS 3,154,669,000).
