ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Message from the Board of Directors

Dear Shareholders, In 2017 the global economy showed continued resilience underpinned by the recovery in purchasing power, investment, and production in the United States, China, Japan, and the European Union. This benefited the Thai economy with exports showing strong growth year over year, along with further expansion of the tourism sector and continued Government investment in infrastructure. Overall, the Thai commercial banking sector demonstrated solid loan growth but with some deterioration in credit quality that impacted profitability amongst the large banks. Capital positions remained robust as the sector approaches international financial reporting standards for financial instruments (IFRS 9). Operating models and investment plans were influenced by the Government’s Thailand 4.0 strategy, in particular the National e-Payment agenda, as well as further tightening of credit card & personal loan underwriting requirements, and increased regulation surrounding the sale of

securities and insurance products. All of these developments impacted the sector’s productivity ratios in 2017, and the banking industry addressed these circumstances with increased investment in technology coupled with a record number of branch closures. Thanachart Bank executed a customer centric strategy focused on becoming the Main Bank for our customers. This was supported by channel and product optimization with corresponding improvements in productivity being used to invest in our digital capabilities. As a result, in 2017 our consolidated net profit grew for the 12th consecutive quarter to THB 13,810 million, an increase of 11% from the previous year and representing top quartile earnings growth in the sector. Total assets grew 6.2% driven by gains in our retail and SME portfolios while maintaining our market-leading position in auto loans. Credit quality continued to improve with loan loss impairment dropping year-over-year despite our growth, and our 2.3% NPL ratio was amongst

(Mr. Banterng Tantivit) Chairman of the Board of Directors

the best in the industry. In terms of efficiency, we led the sector in cost-to-income ratio improvement and generated top quartile improvement in operating leverage. Our capital adequacy ratio remained strong at 18.9%, and Tier 1 Capital was 14.8%. Our mission to better serve our customers led to the launch of a number of innovative products and services including Thanachart Cash Your Book in our auto business, the rollout of the new Diamond-series credit cards for our high value retail customers, as well as the “Thanachart Justice League Chibi” card issued with Freever Lite Savings Accounts to facilitate payments and transfers. As part of our National e-Payments strategy, we enabled merchants to install electronic data capture (EDC) terminals and recently launched a QR code payment system. This will reduce their cash carry costs, help prevent incidents of fraud, and improve digital integration across the industry.

Our ability to drive growth through customer focused innovation was clear amongst our subsidiaries as well; • Thanachart Securities Public Company Limited launched T-Wealth research, focusing on asset allocation for investors based on their risk appetite and suitability. • Thanachart Fund Management Company Limited launched a number of new products including T-PrimePlusAI, which mainly invests in large market-capitalization stocks while providing health protection benefits. • Thanachart Insurance Public Company Limited developed the Thanachart Club DD application which offers immediate response to insurance claims 24 hours a day.

We will remain focused on the customer - delivering enhanced and innovative customer experiences enabled by continued improvements in productivity.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Management Discussion and Analysis Economics Outlook and Competition in Banking Industry In 2017, the Thai economy showed a 3.9 growth, an increase from 3.3 percent in the previous year, following the Report of the Office of the National Economic and Social Development Board (NESDB). This was mainly due to export and tourism sectors which have been thriving consistently throughout the year, following a recovering global economics. Private consumption showed promising sign especially in durable goods, which have been growing consistently in line with expanding car sale volume as the automotive market improved. Private investment also experienced growth from the previous year due to the favorable growth in export sector, resulting in a gradual increase in production in some areas of manufacturing sector. However, the driver from government sector has slowed down. Overall, the Thai economy has been showing healthy growth throughout 2017. Inflation rate has been increasing gradually. Consequently, the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of Thailand (“BOT”) issued a resolution to maintain the same policy rate at 1.50 percent per annum in order to further the economic growth in the future. For 2018, the NESDB has estimated GDP growth of 3.6 - 4.6 percent for the Thai economy. Government sector is the main key driver both in forms of spending and investment. The private sector is predicted to continue the improving trend both in consumption and investment while export sector is forecasted to grow, following the growth of global economies. Loan volume of commercial banking industry in 2017 grew when compared to the previous year, following the improving economic conditions, especially in the latter half of the year. Deposits also grew in line with the loan growth. For 2018, loan volume is forecasted to maintain its healthy trend while deposits are expected to be more competitive and will put upward pressure on the cost of fund for the industry.

Major Events in 2017 • On 5 April 2017, the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of 2017 issued a resolution to approve dividend payments for shareholders of Thanachart Bank Public Company Limited (“the Bank”) at THB 0.40 per share, equivalent to THB 2,426 million. Together with the interim dividend payment of THB 0.35 per share equivalent to THB 2,123 million, the dividend payment of the year 2016 totaled to THB 0.75 per share equivalent to THB 4,549 million, or 38.03 percent of 2016 net profit in the bank-only financial statements or 36.58 percent of 2016 net profit in consolidated financial statements. Dividends were paid on 25 April 2017. • On 20 July 2017, the Bank early redeemed unsecured subordinated debentures of THB 8,497 million, maturing in 2022 with the issuer’s right to early redeem.

This was contributed by the customer centric strategy, focusing on becoming the Main Bank by delivering quality services across all channels and offering the right products to customers, combined with enhanced efficiency to propel sustainable growth to the organization’s core business.

In addition, the Bank was able to continuously maintain the strength of asset quality, liquidity and capital, exhibiting the stability and competitiveness. Total income of the Bank grew by 4.01 percent due to higher net interest income and non-interest revenue year-on-year. The net interest income increased by 2.43 percent from more loans and improved interest spread. The non-interest revenue increased by 7.89 percent from net gains on investments and net insurance income. On the other hand, operating expenses decreased 0.72 percent due to lower costs for premises and more efficient spending. As a result, the pre-provision operating profit (PPOP) increased by THB 1,765 million or 8.92 percent year-on-year. Bad debt and double debt expenses decreased by 0.11 percent thanks to maintenance of asset quality amid total loan growth. The Bank’s total asset expanded consistently throughout the year at 6.21 percent year-on-year following the total loan growth of 3.01 percent from retail and SME loans. Asset quality remained strong due to prudent risk management policy while deposits surged by 5.87 percent.

The coverage ratio was 134.07 percent and the reserve to required reserve as of 31 December 2017 was 172.91 percent.

On separate financial statements, NPL ratio was 1.94 percent close to last year, with coverage ratio at 139.80 percent. The reserve to required reserve ratio was 191.59 percent.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

From the breakdown of sources and uses of fund by remaining tenor of the financial instruments as of 31 December 2017, sources of funds consisted of a major portion of deposits reaching maturity in less than 1 year of 48.43 percent and deposits at call of 40.71 percent of total sources of fund. Whereas the uses of fund consisted of a major portion of loans with remaining tenors of over 1 year of 54.28 percent and loans with remaining tenors of less than 1 year of 22.24 percent of total uses of fund. However, this incongruence between the sources and uses of funds is commonly found in the industry of commercial banks and financial institutions as most depositors tend to keep the matured cash deposited after the due date. Furthermore, the Bank had formulated policies to minimize such discrepancy between the sources and uses of fund using financial instruments to efficiently manage risk that the Bank would receive warning signals in advance in case of the possible impact on the sources and uses of fund.

Commitments

As of 31 December 2017, the Bank and its subsidiaries’ total commitments totaled THB 83,196 million, decreased by THB 252 million (0.30 percent) from THB 83,448 million at the end of December 2016. The drop was largely a result of reduction in aval to bills as shown in the table below. (Unit: THB million)

Factors Influencing Opportunities or Constraints to Business Operations In 2017, the Thai economy continued to grow steadily at 3.9 percent, up from 3.3 percent in 2016 and 3.0 percent in 2015, higher than the projected rate. Crucial factors that contributed to the economic expansion in the past year were simultaneous recovery of the global economies, especially those of Thailand’s trading partner countries such as the United States of America (“USA”), the European Union, China and Japan, etc. The recuperation promoted Thailand’s exports of goods to grow significantly as export values in US dollars surged by as high as 9.7 percent compared to 0.1 percent in 2016. Tourism expanded continuously in aspects of revenue and number of foreign tourists, especially Chinese and Russian. Consumption of durable goods improved, especially car purchases and private investments in machinery and equipment to support production for exports that still showed a strong growth potential. Nevertheless, the government expenditures which used to materially propel the economy in the past 2 years started to weaken partially because of delays in budget disbursements, procurement issues, postponed project biddings and adjustments on construction plans, etc.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

The overall stability of the Thai economy maintained a strong momentum. The headline inflation in 2017 was low at 0.7 percent, a slight increase from the year before as a result of rising crude oil prices in the global market and raised excise taxes in categories of liquor and tobacco, and sugar-sweetened beverages. The unemployment rate increased to some extent but remained modest at 1.18 percent. In terms of foreign stability, Thailand’s international reserves were at a high level compared to short-term offshore debts. Thailand’s balance on current accounts continued to have a surplus due to robust exports and tourism. However, capital and financial accounts saw net deficits because Thai investors invested consistently overseas. Nevertheless, operating a commercial banking business in 2018 will face all-round challenges, especially from external and internal factors that will impact Thailand’s economic and money market growth, including entrepreneurs’ business in general. Such factors, for instance, are the policy rate hike by the US Federal Reserves (FED) and Asian central banks, uncertainty of execution of monetary and fiscal policies of key economies such as USA, Europe, Japan and China, USA’s protectionist measures, NAFTA renegotiation, and the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union (BREXIT). Also included are geopolitical conflicts in the Korean Peninsula and the Middle East, potential price surge of global crude oil prices in response to global economic growth and a shared agreement among the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and Non-OPEC to extend the oil supply cut to the end of 2018, BOT’s policy rate increase, the National e-Payment project, financial technology, changing consumer behaviors in pace with the rapidly advancing digital technology, household and SME debts, changes in the regulatory requirements such as baht and financial account control measures, IFRS 9, Basel III, consumer protection laws, and Foreigners’ Working Management Emergency Decree. Amid such economic, social and technological changes, the Thai economy in 2018 will continue to grow with key reinforcements from the accelerated investments in transport and logistics infrastructure projects and Eastern Economic Corridor project of the government. Added to the key reinforcements are higher private investments in sectors related to government policies and to accommodate the export expansion, the trend of continuous growth of the global economy and economies in trade partner countries which back Thailand’s export sector, and well as tourism. Generally,

this presents a good opportunity for the commercial banking industry in supporting loans and financial services to associated sectors that will generate cash to be passed on to other associated businesses, and stimulate the country’s economic activities. However, if the export and tourism were to continue to be crucial factors propelling the Thai economy sustainably, every sector involved must urgently adjust to elevate the competitiveness; solving structural problems that undermine the competitiveness, promoting and elevating the quality of tourist attractions in accordance with the potential and suitability. Moreover, the Thai economic expansion in 2018 is supported by BOT’s relaxed implementation of monetary policies to accommodate the economic expansion and to adjust the inflation rate into the next inflation targeting.

Industry and Competition Outlook In 2017, commercial banks in general recognized opportunities and challenges from financial innovations and digital technology, changing financial behaviors of consumers in the digital age, the government’s implementation of Thailand 4.0 and an upgraded electronic payment system. Consequently, the commercial banks prioritized revamping their business models and financial services to support the government’s policy that will bring Thailand into a cashless society, and allocated great investments in digital technology in order to apply financial technology to the financial services. This was a bid to deliver better customer experience and lower the cost of transactions. The technology included a QR Code payment system, Digital Banking, technological application, new financial research and innovations, and partnerships with FinTechs and tech startups. Nevertheless, although the Thai economy showed signs of steady recovery and the business sectors had a higher demand for loans, some entrepreneurs, particularly small and medium sized ones and households with low income did not fully enjoy advantages of the economic recovery and had less debt service ability. Therefore, the commercial banks in general put an emphasis on monitoring loan quality by being more cautious and prudent when approving loans in order to handle the pressure from nonperforming loans (NPLs) and added strength by heightening provisions for doubtful accounts to be sufficient according to the International Financial Reporting Standard 9 (IFRS 9) that will be enforced in 2019. The focus was also on reengineering operating processes and appropriate cost management.


046

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Last year, although faced with surrounding challenges, the commercial banks in general still maintained strong financial stability as reflected in the increased capital adequacy ratio of the entire industry from 18.04 percent in 2016 to 18.19 in 2017, and remained a significant source of funds in the Thai economy. Loans in the commercial banking system grew from THB 11,925,460 million in 2016 to THB 12,457,878 million in 2017, or 4.46 percent. However, as it was necessary for many major banks to materially increase their provisions for doubtful accounts, the total net profit of the entire commercial banking system in 2017 dropped by 5.65 percent from THB 198,523 million in 2016 to THB 187,297 million in 2017. In 2018, the accelerated implementation of the government projects such as transport and logistics infrastructures to enhance the national competitiveness and the development of the Eastern Economic Corridor, as well a demand for more investments of the business sectors in correlation with the continuous expansion of the Thai and global economies will improve the loan volume of the entire commercial banking system. The growing demand for loans will cause the liquidity the market to be tighter, resulting in a likely competition among the commercial banks to raise deposits in support of the loan growth. However, the commercial banks will continue prioritizing asset quality. Generally, the commercial banks still concentrate on operating based on customer centricity and leveraging the big data of customers in analyzing and processing in order to identify the customer insight in aspects of behaviors and the customer journey along their financial transactions. This will be beneficial to formulation of strategies and product and service design, as well as the channel development in response to each customer segment in a bid to deliver excellent customer experience. Furthermore, the commercial banks will continue to invest in digital technology to support the government’s policy in the development of the National e-Payment, which is a key foundation to transform Thailand into a cashless society, enhancing operational efficiency and elevating the quality of customer service. This also includes the development of financial innovation and channels that match changing customer requirements and behaviors, allowing them to performs a variety of transactions conveniently, quickly and hassle-free at a lower cost with confidence in data security and privacy. Simultaneously, the commercial banks will also

focus on people development and productivity enhancement with an emphasis on strengthening skills and knowledge to each personnel group in accordance with the changing business model.

The SET index subjected to limit moves throughout the first quarter of 2017 due to the indecision in the economic growth, especially in private consumption and domestic investment, occurred from the kingdom grief and the government’s policy to regulate the “zero-dollar tours” which resulted in a smaller number of tourists. Nevertheless, the SET index initially picked up at the end of Q3, backed by the advocating factors from both domestic and foreign as follows: The key domestic factors accommodated an increase in the SET index were: 1) the overall economy showed signs of advancement in 2017; such advancement was dispersive as seen by the recuperation of the tourism industry which presented a solid growth by hitting the new high with the number of 35 million tourists in 2017, an increase from 2016’s 32.6 million tourists, after the impact from “zero-dollar tours” alleviated, the export industry upturn, the acceleration of capital-goods imports which were the indicating index of domestic investment tendencies, and private consumptions especially for consumer durables which considerably thrived. Public investment was, however, sluggish yet expected to gradually grow afterwards. 2) BOT’s financial policies contributed to the economic expansion as

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

policy rate remained at 1.50 percent throughout 2017 while the pressure from inflation remained low, GDP. 3) the operating results of listed companies skyrocketed and hit the new high in 2017; most analysts continuously augmented profit estimation and fair value from Q3/2017 onwards, resulted in a drop of the tightened fair price. 4) there was a high domestic liquidity owing to the current account surplus of more than USD 4 billion for the second consecutive year, equivalent to about 10 percent of the GDP. 5) the political situation in the country became stabilized in comparison with the past years which helped boost the continuity of the public infrastructure investment project and the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC); this brought about the hope that the election would proceed as scheduled in 2018 as well. The foreign factors accommodated an increase in the SET index were: 1) the global economic upbeat, especially the economies of developed countries such as the United States, Europe, and Japan; 2) the concern over Europe’s political stability resolved after the election results of many countries went in accordance with the market predictions; 3) the policy rate of the Federal Reserve of the United States of America mounted bit by bit while the asset normalization did not affect the liquidity in the global money marketcapital market; as for the European Central Bank (ECB), the Quantitative Easing (QE) policy period had been extended to September 2018 with the credit line of EUR 3 billion per month; and 4) the approval of the U.S. tax reform legislation during year-end 2017 was another factor boosted the purchasing power of the world’s largest economy and the growth of the U.S. listed companies’ profits in 2018. As for 2018, the Thai economy is expected to accelerate by more than 4 percent as driven by the public investment which has seen larger lump sum from 2018 on out due to the completion of many infrastructure investment projects biddings, consistently thriving exports which are in line with strong global economies, continual growth in the tourism industry, and the private investment which will start continuing its recovery once the EEC becomes apparent at the beginning of 2018 onwards.

The Stock Exchange of the Thailand (SET) disclosed information that, during January 2017 to November 2017, the IPO values of listed companies were THB 426.349 billion, a 170 percent increase compared to the end of 2016; the majority of which were from fund raising in the primary market. As of December 2017, SET’s market capitalization was THB 17.59 trillion, a 17 percent increase from 2016. MAI’s market capitalization was THB 338.836 billion, a 20 percent decrease from the end of 2016. Nonetheless, this was partly due to the shift of the EA stock from MAI to SET; EA’s market capitalization was THB 114.7 billion as at the date of the shift, which was equivalent to 27 percent of MAI. The market share of TNS is 3.78 percent, ranked th 9 among 38 securities companies. In 2017, the competition remained intense and the main customer target was retail investors owing to the constant relocation of investment consultants in the previous year. In addition, the overall competition was geared towards offering not only investment consultants of higher qualification but also new products and innovations to investors e.g. a fund trading system via an application called “FundConnext”, presenting investment facts via LINE Application, and offering Block Trading products to investors. 2. There are 42 members in total in the Thailand Futures Exchange (TFEX). In 2017, total trading volumes were 78,990,574 contracts, an increase of 13.68 percent from 2016. The majority of the trading volumes were from single stock futures and SET50 Index Futures with a number of 17,275 investor accounts from 2016. TNS’s market share was 5.92 percent, or the 4th among all TFEX members. 3. At the moment, the competition of financial advisory business and securities underwriting services remains aggressive, especially in mergers & acquisitions, IPOs and fund raisings. Although the competition focuses increasingly on price, the key competitive factors remain on service quality, expertise of personnel in providing customers with relevant advices and solutions to problems, having wide service networks as well as creative product innovations which can add more values and provide greater benefits to customers. These will be the key factors in drawing more customers towards using TNS’s services.

Risk Factors An overview of the Risk Management

In 2017, the Thai economy continuously improved from the previous year despite the lower than projected inflation rate due mainly to the growths of export and tourism which were in continuation of the global economic recovery. Similarly, the government spending was another factor advocating Thai economic growth together with the private consumer sector, of which the expansion was at a satisfactory level. The total loans of commercial banks in 2017 continued to expand from last year as the Thai economic outlook picked up. Nonetheless, the NPL ratio jumped as compared to the previous year owing to the drop of debt service coverage ratio in some business units. Yet, considering the overall commercial banking industry, commercial banks were able to strongly maintain their financial stability as reflected in high capitals and reserves. As for 2018, the Thai economy tends to recover more strongly than the previous year thanks to the key drivers emerged from large government investments and the recovery of private investments as well as the global economic expansion triggering positive impacts to the export sector. Risk factors of various areas need to be closely monitored e.g. purchasing power diversification, household debts, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate hikes; these can affect the Bank’s risks in different aspects such as marketing risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk. The Bank and its subsidiaries realize the importance of continuous risk management that the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICCAP) was employed to manage risks in compliance with the Bank of Thailand (“BOT”)’s capital supervisory measures of Basel III framework. This allows the Bank and its subsidiaries to efficiently manage the capital and have a strong capital status to firmly support the business growth. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors and executives of the Bank closely oversee, monitor, and develop the risk management system regularly to ensure that the measures are updated and in line with the ever-changing internal and external risk factors. The Bank strategically establishes an organizational structure to support the risk management under the policy outline via various committees’ supervisions as follows:

The Board and Committees at the Policy Level: The Bank’s Board of Directors and the Executive Committee have a role in policy making and establish guidelines for an efficient enterprise-wide risk management by taking into consideration the impact of risks on the Bank’s operational goal and financial position that have to be in line with its normal operation. Risk Management Committee has a role in establishing strategic plans and developing the risk management procedure as well as considering appropriate risk management policies and guidelines to be proposed to the Executive Committee and the Bank’s Board of Directors for consideration and approval. Audit Committee has a role in determining the supervisory guidelines for the operation to comply with measures of related authorities as well as assessing the effectiveness and sufficiency of the risk management process and internal control system.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

The Committees at the Operation Level: Asset and Liability Management Committee has a role in supervising the structure of the Bank’s assets and liabilities to be appropriate for characteristics of the business and in line with the Bank’s risk management policy. Investment Portfolio Committee played a role in overseeing the investment in financial instruments, to be in line with the Bank’s market risk management policy. Credit Committee has a role in supervising the credit lending and other credit-related transactions to be in line with the Bank’s credit risk management policy. IT Security Management Committee has a role in establishing policies regarding the IT Security System, proposing preventive measures against risks arising from information and technology system, as well as monitoring, supervising and controlling the operation of the IT Security System to be in line with the proposed plan. Audit Division has a key role in reviewing internal control system, risk management system, the conduct and disclosure of financial information, the operation, the report and supervisory procedures to ensure practices in accordance with policies, work plans, rules and regulations of the Bank and its subsidiaries, official rules and regulations of relevant regulators and good corporate governance principle, and providing consultation with other divisions for further development and proper internal control of the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ systems.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

• The conduct of business affairs is under the system of check and balance with the Middle Office, comprising the Risk Control Unit and the Back Office, being separated from the Front Office. • The Bank puts in writing all the established policies and guidelines regarding the risk management that specify responsibilities of related units as the operational guidelines for the employees. Moreover, the Bank has established a four-step guideline for risk management namely: 1) identification of the characteristics of risks and risk factors, 2) development of appropriate tools and models for risk measurement, 3) control of risks within acceptable limits and 4) monitoring of risk status in order to properly manage any possible risks in a timely manner. • The determination of size and proportion of different risk values by the use of risk calculation tools and models allows the Bank to perceive the degree of severity from feasible risks. These risk variables could also be used as the ceiling to control risk under the acceptable level as well as to provide warning signals before severe losses occur. The abovementioned risk management systems are designed based on prudent principles and are reviewed regularly to suit prevailing situations; they are also transparent and examinable while also concerning the interests of shareholders, customers, and employees of the Bank significantly.

The Bank’s Key Risk Categories: 1. Credit Risk Credit risk arises from a situation in which the debtors or counterparties fail to repay or fulfill their agreed obligations. This might be contributed by the fact that the debtor’s financial position is under distress due to volatilities of economic conditions that pose adverse impact on businesses or the debtors’ mismanagement, which as a result, may adversely affect the Bank and the subsidiaries’ earnings and capital. The credit risk may arise from ordinary financial transactions such as credit lending, financial obligations in the form of avals or guarantees, other transactions related to credit lending as well as investment in debt instruments issued by state agencies or state enterprises with neither guarantee from government nor the BOT and private debt instruments such as debentures.

Under its credit risk management policies and guidelines, the Bank has successfully established a credit culture. To start with, the credit risk of the borrowers, counterparties or issuers of debt instruments will be independently assessed by the model developed specifically to each type of borrowers or counterparties by the Credit Risk Management Unit. At this juncture, authorized Credit Committee would then consider and determine the level of credit risk of borrowers or counterparties, appropriate credit lines and investment budget, as well as terms and conditions on loans or other obligations. The Committee also controls the overall risk status by appropriately diversifying credit risk into various business sectors and groups of customers within the established risk ceilings. In addition, the Committee closely monitors the quality of loans to ensure proper and vigilant management by emphasizing business capability and repayment ability under the supervision of an independent risk control unit. Apart from the aforementioned units, there is also an Internal Audit Division to verify that the credit transactions are in compliance with the BOT’s guidelines. To ensure optimal returns under acceptable risk, the Bank has employed measuring tool called RAROC (Risk Adjusted Return on Capital) to reflect the appropriate level of capital. Moreover, the Bank also performed stress tests to estimate any damage that may occur during the crisis. Under this condition, the borrower’s ability to repay can erode or they may fail to make a repayment under terms and conditions stated in the hypothesized contract. The risk factors in the tests are assumed to affect the industry that the debtors’ businesses belong to.

Important credit risk factors are as listed below: 1.1 Credit concentration risk The Bank aims to appropriately diversify its loans to various groups of customers, focusing on high potential customers and attempt to prevent concentration of loans to a particular group of customers. Under such goal, the Bank pursues proper risk management on overall credit portfolios with close monitoring and comprehensive assessment to report to the assigned committees on a regular basis. The purpose is to mitigate exogenous risks that may adversely affect any particular group of business excessively financed by the Bank.

Most of the hire purchase credits were granted to retail customers, whose credit lines were relatively small and the customers were well diversified.

1.2 Risks from non-performing loans The non-performing loans are loans classified as substandard, doubtful and doubtful of loss.

The risk on debt restructuring arises from the re-entry of the NPL debtors that is, after the debt is restructured, the debtors default on their repayments again and resumes the non-performing status, having adverse effects on the Bank and its subsidiaries. The numbers of debtors agreed to enter the debt restructuring program, as of 31 December 2017, accounted for the amount of principal and the accrued interest receivables totaling THB 10,820 million or 1.52 percent of total loan outstanding and accrued interest receivables. The total value of the restructured debt based on net collaterals would amount to THB 3,543 million approximately.


058

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

1.3 Risks from Collaterals For collateralized loans, the Bank has established a procedure of quality analysis and classification for each type of collateral by taking into account the liquidity and risk of the collateral type. The analysis result is one of the key factors used to classify credit risk level. The value of collaterals, either immovable or movable, will be appraised in accordance with the BOT’s guideline. The main types of collaterals of the Bank consisted of deposits and bills of exchange, marketable securities, non-listed securities, immovable commercial property, immovable housing property, vehicles, machinery, etc. The Bank has determined the price appraisal guidelines, standards, and frequency for each type of collateral. Furthermore, the Bank required that the appraisal price report is prepared to ensure clear and adequate data/ information as well as analysis required for reasonable price setting. In case the collateral is devalued or impaired by aging or usage, its impairment costs must be considered by the concerned unit. With reference to the BOT’s notification regarding the valueless and non-callable assets in December 2006 stipulating that the provision setting was to be in line with the IAS39, cars can be counted as collaterals and their ownership belongs to the Bank and its subsidiaries. In case the debtor is unable to service the debt, the Bank and its subsidiaries can immediately repossess and sell the collateral asset in used car market. Consequently, the Bank and its subsidiaries are exposed to the risk from unsuccessful cars repossession as well as from sales that do not cover the incurred loss. The risk factors involve, for instance, the used car market condition and repossessed car condition. Basing on the Bank’s statistical data, Loss Given Default (LGD) is identified at 44 percent and the Bank’s provision is set at a higher portion than LGD, to ensure full coverage of the possible loss.

1.4 Risks from Guarantees and Avals Providing the current customer service, the Bank and its subsidiaries are also obligated in forms of avals, letter of credits and loan guarantees, which the Bank and its subsidiaries are held responsible for should the customers are unable to fulfill their obligations. In managing such risks, the Bank carefully scrutinizes supporting information and applies strict approval procedures to these obligations. The

close monitoring on these transactions is undertaken based on the same guideline used for the regular lending procedure of the Bank. As of 31 December 2017, the Bank and its subsidiaries’ obligations in the form of avals and guarantees for loans amounted to THB 25,709 million or 2.55 percent of the total assets.

2. Market Risk The market risk arises from movements in interest rates, exchange rates and prices of instruments in money market and capital market, which may adversely affect earnings and capital of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The market risk can be segmented into 3 categories including price risk, interest rate risk, and exchange rate risk. At this juncture, the Bank’s policies are to control and manage these risks to remain at an appropriate level and in line with the Bank’s policy on risk management.

2.1 Price Risk Price risk arises when the earnings or capital are affected by negative changes in the price of debt and equity instruments, causing the value of trading and available-for-sales investment portfolio to decline. The Bank has developed risk measurement tools based on the Value-at-Risk (VaR) model to estimate the maximum loss amount at a certain confidence level and over a given asset holding period. The Bank also determines the various limits of transactions in order to control risk to remain in an acceptable level; for example, Position Limit and Loss Limit. The Risk Control Unit, separated from the front office and the back office, has the duty of risk control and reporting on the status of the limits to the Board of Directors, departments and executives associated to the risk management. For prompt risk management, the Bank assigns the directors to consider investing to be a controller and a monitor of this particular risk aspect. In order to ensure the efficiency and accuracy of its tools for risk measurement, the Bank requires that the tools are subject to back-testing in accordance with the Bank of International Settlement (BIS) standards. Moreover, the Bank has conducted the stress testing by formulating stress scenarios which can create extraordinary reduction in stock prices. The test result can therefore shed light on the impact on the Bank’s earnings and required capital if such events occur.

The Bank’s value of trading and available-for-sale securities decreased from the previous year mainly because of the drop in government and state enterprise securities. As a result, the overall price risk of the Bank and its subsidiaries declined.

2.2 Interest Rate Risk The interest rate risk is the risk that earnings or capital are adversely affected by changes in interest rates that pose impact on its rate-sensitive items including assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items that are rate sensitive items. These changes may have a negative impact on net interest income of the Bank and its subsidiaries. It is the goal of the Bank to run their business operations under a long-term effective interest rate risk management system. In other words, the Bank endeavors to maintain an appropriate structure of assets and liabilities which are rate-sensitive at different time intervals at an appropriate level for efficient operations and maximum benefit for the Bank and the Bank’s shareholders. Thus, the Repricing Gap Analysis Model was developed as a tool for measuring interest rate risk by assessing the impact that may arise from the mismatch of the repricing periods of assets, liabilities and obligations at different time intervals, which is used for risk measurement every month. In order to ensure that the risk of the Bank business operations is within an acceptable limit, they have also established an acceptable risk ceiling and an early warning risk level, taking into account the structure of assets, liabilities and obligations as well as interest rate repricing which are expected to take pace in each period of the Bank business plan. The Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) is responsible for monitoring and controlling such risk very closely. To effectively design appropriate measures to accommodate the risks, the committee has to monitor economic conditions, development in the money market and capital market and the interest rate trend which could become important risk factors to the Bank’s rate-sensitive items.

With reference to the financial structure of assets and liabilities, should the market interest rate increase, the Bank’s net interest income of the next year would decrease. This was mainly because the Bank’s hire purchase business used the fixed interest rate as reference. Nevertheless, the Bank carried out interest rate swap agreements and raised long-term deposits for effective risk management.

2.3 Exchange Rate Risk The exchange rate risk is a risk that the earnings or capital of the Bank and its subsidiaries can be adversely affected by exchange rate fluctuations from transactions in foreign currencies, exchange rate exposures in their possession of assets or liabilities in foreign currencies. There are two types of exchange rate risk-risk from transactions in foreign currencies (Transaction Risk) and risk from exchanging foreign currency to local currency (Translation Risk). The ALCO is responsible for monitoring and controlling this type of risk through the consideration in the proper matching between the structure and the maturity of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies. The Bank’s policy is to also rely on the VaR ceiling in order to control the impact of exchange rate movements on earnings and capital. Nevertheless, in order to avoid the exchange rate risk, the Bank has also relied on hedging instruments such as forward contracts.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

As of 31 December 2017, the Bank and its subsidiaries had assets and liabilities in foreign currencies of THB 36,544 million and THB 17,277 million, respectively, equaled to net assets of THB 19,267 million. And as most of the assets in foreign currencies were hedged against the exchange rate risk by forward contracts, the Bank and its subsidiaries were exposed to low risks. The total non-hedged assets in foreign currencies amounted to THB 476 million or 0.05 percent of total assets.

3. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk arises from the inability of the Bank and its subsidiaries to repay their debts or obligations upon the delivery date due to the lack of ability to convert assets into cash or to mobilize adequate funds or to mobilize funds at an acceptable cost. This could adversely affect the current and future earnings and capital of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The liquidity risk management mechanism starts with the assessment of the cash flows and liquidity position over particular time horizons of the Bank when the different levels of funds may be required to accommodate deposit withdrawal, reduce other types of the Bank’s liabilities or increase the Bank’s assets by using the Liquidity Gap Analysis. Various liquidity ratios and “What if” scenarios to evaluate the sufficiency of the cash flow liquidity depending on customer behavior in extending contracts upon maturity and estimate the need of liquidity in various “What if” scenarios depending on the economic climate and extraordinary situations that may happen to the Bank and the financial institution system. Meanwhile, the Bank and its subsidiaries developed an emergency plan in case of a liquidity problem and there will be a revision of the significant occurrences that affect working operations. In this regard, the Bank and its subsidiaries have assigned ALCO, controlling and managing the liquidity risk with two weekly meetings to monitor and manage risk. The structure of the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ capital fund could be classified by different types and maturities of sources of funds as follows: Capital Funds Classified by Sources (Unit: THB Million)

4. Operational Risk The operational risk is the risk that arises from the damage that occurs from lack of good corporate governance within the organization. Risk may also arise from the inadequate efficiency of the internal audit and internal control systems which could be relating to internal operation process, personnel, systems or external events. This also includes legal risks such as litigations, exploitation by the government and also damage from settlements outside the courtroom. Such risks can pose adverse impact on other risks, especially strategic risk and reputation risk. The Bank has established policies and guidelines to ensure the prevention and monitoring of this type of risk. As the internal control system is an important tool in controlling and preventing potential risk that may occur, the Bank has implemented an efficient internal control system as follows: • Regarding the organization of the Bank’s structure, the Bank has specified the roles, the scope of duties and responsibilities for each position, based on a system of check and balance. The Front Office where all the transactions take place is separated from the Middle Office, comprised of the Risk Control Unit and the Back Office. • Establish the transaction-supporting units which are independent and have expertise in their respective fields of work such as information technology unit, legal and appraisal unit in order to prevent any possible errors that may arise. • Put operational procedures and regulations related to all types of transaction, staff manuals as well as the authority ranks for approval in writings as a guideline to set the same standards for all internal operations within the organization. • Establish the Audit Committee and the Risk Management Committee to control, monitor, and assess the risks of the Bank. The committees are responsible for examining and correcting the pitfalls in order to create soundness and efficiency in the Bank’s operation. • Improve the management of the information technology system and information security system in order to enhance its potential to accommodate business expansion and gain credibility from the customers in the aspect of data and technology. A particular focus is given to the prevention of damages from unauthorized access to the Bank’s information.

• Formulate the Business Continuity Plan which consists of an emergency plan, a plan for backup systems, and a business recovery plan to prevent disruption in business operation. In addition, the drills are essential to test the readiness and to consistently improve the plans for its effective implementation. The Bank also employs the services of the third party to operate some group activities as per the direction of the work operations of financial institutions at present and in the future. The Bank determines policies in order to manage the risk that may occur from outsourcing. These policies have to also be subject to regulations of BOT and must be beneficial to the internal control of the Bank as well. In the measurement and assessment of operational risk, the Bank determines a principle, form or condition of the process used in the measurement and assessment of risk in the Bank. In the determination of this process, the Bank considers the circumstantial factors such as supervising guidelines of the government units associated with the Bank, state and complexity of the business, the capability of the Bank in accepting risk, probability, likelihood or frequency as well as the impact or severity of risk that has happened or may happen. As per BOT’s specification for commercial banks to maintain funds in proportion to risk-weighted assets in terms of credit, market and operation according to Basel III guidelines, the Bank has employed the Basic Indicator Approach to calculate operational risks. In addition, to monitor operational risk, the Bank determines a policy for executives of each department to be responsible for monitoring the risk by considering this as a part of their regular duties. This will help promptly identify all risks and problems that occur in order to respond to the changes in an appropriate and timely manner, not damaging to the Bank. Nevertheless, to be informed of the result of business operations and problems that occur, as well as trends and changes in information of risk factors, the Bank organizes a filing and reporting of the information associated with operational risk management such as information on data loss, key risk indicators and important risk points to be continually and regularly reports to the Board of Directors, the Risk Management Committee and the executives to use in the determination of policies, to develop a sufficient risk management system and to be a tool in aiding the Bank to evaluate the capability and efficiency of the internal control system.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

5. Strategic Risk This type of risk arises from the inappropriate formulation of strategies, business planning and implementation which are not compatible with internal setups and external environment, resulting in an adverse impact on earnings, capital or the existence of the Bank and its subsidiaries. In managing the strategic risk, the Bank formulates strategies for the next three years which are reviewed annually or when there is an external event that may impact the achievement of the Bank’s business goals. The Executive Committee is responsible for regular monitoring and evaluating the performance of the work units upon the established targets stated in the annual operation plan.

6. Regulatory Risk The regulatory risk arises from non-compliance of laws, regulations, requirements, standards, and practice guidelines regulated the Bank’s transactions, which could cause serious financial loss, reputational damage, or state of being intervened. Any amendment or change in regulations, laws, or requirements made by the authorities such as the Bank of Thailand, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Stock Exchange of Thailand, the Office of Insurance Commission, the Anti-Money Laundering Office, and others may affect the business strategies and operations of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The Bank established the team of Compliance, reporting directly to both the Audit Committee and the CEO and President, to monitor and ensure compliance of Bank and its subsidiaries under the financial group with the laws and requirements of the regulators and business ethics; provide consultations; educate executives and staff; and enable the executives to perform and manage regulatory risks efficiently, without redundancy with other internal units or special task forces such as the anti-money laundering, coordination and monitoring, official regulators.

To manage regulatory risks, the Compliance would evaluate the risks in activities taking into account the internal and external factors that may impact the Bank and its subsidiaries, including direction of regulatory supervision, official audit result, business policy, inquiries, complaints, internal control and systems involved the matter. The Risk Based Approach (RBA) was employed to determine impact and probability of incident and used as a guideline for the Control and Monitor process to ensure compliance. The Compliance’s duties also include following up with the found issues and propose recommendations on corrective actions.

7. Risk from Capital Adequacy The Bank’s capital adequacy was calculated basing on the supervisory guideline of Basel III, as follows: • Credit risk by means of the Standardized Approach • Market risk to explore status of market risk by means of the Standardized Approach • Operational risk by means of the Basic Indicator Approach In addition, the Bank has assessed its future capital adequacy based on budget and 3-year business plan. The calculated risk is capped with risk capital budget in which the Risk Management Division monthly reports the adequacy of capital to the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors to ensure that the Bank has sufficient capital after risk capital allocation to support sustainable business’ growth as planned. As of 31 December 2017, the Bank’s capital totaled THB 125,527 million, of which THB 98,209 million was common equity Tier I capital and Tier I capital while Tier II capital was THB 27,318 million. Thus, the ratios of Total Common Equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets, Total Tier I to risk-weighted assets, and Total capital to risk-weighted assets were 14.81 percent, 14.81 percent, and 18.94 percent, respectively, higher than the BOT’s minimum requirements at 5.75 percent, 7.25 percent, and 9.75 percent, respectively.

The training and development activities have been implemented through a diverse range of various learning channels such as in-house learning and public learning through participation in activities organized by various institutes outside the organization, as well as self-paced learning through the e-learning system. After employees participate in each training activity, a training evaluation will be carried out to measure results and training effectiveness.

Survey of Employee Opinions about the Organization Thanachart Group places strong emphasis on the well-being and development of its human resources, encouraging them to feel motivated and engaged on a continuous basis. In this connection, the Group conducted the Voice of Employee Survey (VOE) to get their opinions about the organization. The Group realizes that organizational growth primarily depends on all its employees. As a result, it pays close attention to opinions and suggestions given by all employees through the survey in relation to various contributing factors within the organization. These factors include, among others, improvement of work environment, work processes, work systems, supervisors, as well as the balance between work and personal life. Since the information received from the survey will be kept confidential, employees could rest assured that their opinions will not have any impact on their performance appraisal. Thanachart Group is determined to raise its employee engagement to a level higher than or equal to those of leading organizations in the market. In 2017, the number of the employees taking part in the survey accounted for 98.88 percent of Thanachart Group’s employees. In this connection, their opinions were already grouped. As well, the development plan was drawn up and presented to high-level executives of every department.

Performance Appraisal and Staff Remuneration Thanachart Group has set up a clear and transparent performance appraisal process. Not only it adopted a standard methodology but also prepared a standard appraisal form for all work units. Performance appraisals, whether individuals, team or executives, have been clearly grouped, in this connection, the appraisal of the division/section must specify their main goals which are in line with the annual Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) of their respective department. As well, the individual KPIs and the team KPIs have to be in line with the main goals set by each of their respective division/section. Such appraisal process will help drive the performance of the staff members of the whole organization to achieve the established business goals. The appraisal will be conducted twice a year in order to allow proper monitoring of the implementation. A central unit will be responsible for ensuring that the appraisal of the whole organization follows the same direction as specified. As regards remuneration, Thanachart Group has laid down the remuneration principles, ensuring that the remuneration is in line with the different nature of work, and that the remuneration in the form of monthly salaries and annual bonuses will be properly taken into account. The objectives are to motivate staff members to carry out their duties and achieve the goals established by each division/section and to ensure that the compensation levels the Group provides are competitive with those offered by companies in the same business.

Responsibility to Trading Partners in Supply Chain Thanachart Group conducts its business affairs by following the sustainable development guidelines across the entire supply chain, starting with management of social and environmental impacts through TBANK’s procurement process. Emphasis is placed on development of trading partners on a continuous basis, ensuring their sustainable development. Such development would be achieved through honest, transparent, and accountable business operations. As a result, it is hoped that Thanachart Group’s trading partners will be able to develop their business operation processes while raising social and environmental standards at the same time. The Group’s business operations have to depend on trading partners’ cooperation, in order to be able to deliver products and services that meet customer needs in a responsible manner. In 2017, Thanachart Group had over 400 trading partners in the following areas: 1) Procurement of stationery and general supplies including general products and services, stationery, office supplies, important printing forms, general printing supplies, printed plastic cards, and other miscellaneous items. 2) Outsourcing services including marketing and sales promotions, public relations, document/cash transportation services, security services, cleaning services, chauffeur services, and messenger services.

As a result, it is essential for Thanachart Group to pay close attention to the efficiency of its trading partners in managing resources. The trading partners are required to comply with environmental laws, regulations, and standards. As well, they must be capable of using natural resources in an efficient and effective manner and reducing negative impacts on the environment by following the 3R’s: reduce, reuse/recycle, and replenish. The above criteria serve as guidelines for the work units in charge of procurement in selecting each trading partner. In the future, Thanachart Group will incorporate into the guidelines three additional dimensions including society, environment, and corporate governance, which will cover issues related to business ethics, labor conditions, human rights, laws, occupational health and safety, and environment. In this connection, trading partners are required to sign an acknowledgement, agreeing to strictly adhere to the anti-corruption policy. Thanachart Group will also check, monitor, and assess the performance of its trading partners in these areas in a continuous manner. In case trading partners fail to follow the established guidelines, Thanachart Group may consider taking actions against them, taking into account the impacts and damages caused, such as activating penalty clauses specified in the agreement, claiming compensation for damages in line with the agreement, cancelling the agreement or removing the name of the trading partners in the approved vendor list.

Actions Taken in 2017 • Thanachart Group restructured the procurement management, aiming at streamlining procurement processes including administration and management processes as well as business operations across the supply chain. In this connection, the Group has adopted a centralized procurement policy and has assigned the responsibility to the strategic procurement division and the central administration office. The objective is to ensure that the procurement processes are transparent and that suppliers and service providers are assessed on a continuous basis. • Thanachart Group encourages its suppliers and service providers to pay close attention to the conduct of business affairs in a socially and environmentally responsible

manner. The objective is to raise the standards and broaden the scope in order to achieve sustainable procurement. Emphasis is placed on developing operating procedures in collaboration with trading partners in various forms and on managing costs in a systematic manner. It is expected that trading partners will benefit from the concepts which will enable them to manage better and learn how to reduce costs properly in order to be able to deliver good products and services at a competitive price. In the end, trading partners will be able to operate their businesses in a stable and sustainable manner as well. • TBANK has developed a procurement policy, aiming at raising procurement standards, by taking into consideration social and environmental factors such as fair trade, human rights, labor conditions, occupational health and safety, environmentally friendly production processes, and environmental management in the workplace. The developments are in line with TBANK’s code of business ethics as well as its code of conduct for staff members. The main objective is to achieve sustainable development across the supply chain. • TBANK manages its relationships with suppliers and service providers (Supplier Relationship Management) in a systematic manner as the relationships have impacts on its overall business performance. All parties concerned cooperate with one another in developing products and services that cater to the business needs. The cooperation not only enhances TBANK’s competitiveness but also facilitates the business expansion of suppliers and service providers. • TBANK is determined to promote further adoption of the sustainable development concept throughout the supply chain. It started by discussing and cooperating with trading partners in developing businesses, aiming at raising procurement standards by taking into account economic, social, and environmental factors. The cooperation enables all parties to achieve several goals in concrete terms. An example is the purchase of various products from charitable organizations, which could be used as mementoes on various occasions. As another example, TBANK and a number trading partners jointly develop various print media by using environmentally friendly print materials. Other example is the continuous cooperation with trading partners in researching and developing new procurement processes in order to come up with innovative products for the society and the environment in line with the sustainable development policy.

Examples of Project Electronic Equipment Procurement Project Thanachart Group has established a procurement guideline that places emphasis on use of environmentally friendly materials and reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by requiring that raw materials for production must be capable for being recycled. As well, it is required that the various electronic equipment to be procured must meet standards for safety requirements established by national standards institutes such as Underwriter Laboratories (UL). In addition, the equipment must receive certification from national institutes such as Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it conforms to standards that limit the amount of electromagnetic interference (EMI). Importantly, the equipment must receive certification for energy efficiency, such as Energy Star 5, apart from receiving certification from national institutes for products that meet electronic product environmental performance criteria, such as Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT) rating. The guideline covers procurement of electronic equipment such as computers and their peripheral devices, multifunction photocopiers that received product certification from Thai Green Label Scheme, and other electrical appliances. A4 Paper Procurement Project Foreseeing impacts on the environment, Thanachart Group has adopted a policy, ensuring that the A4 paper to be procured must be made from perennial plant fibers or those of farm trees or used agricultural materials mixed with 100 percent recycled fibers without using any new trees since the production of paper is based on an environmentally friendly process. In this connection, over 95 percent of the paper used consists of the following: 1) A4 Paper 80 grams is made from 70 percent farmed tree fibers and 30 percent recycled fibers using waste or used materials as mixtures. Emphasis is also placed on reduction of the use of bleaching agents in the environmentally friendly production process. The raw materials are suitable for producing paper with quality equal to the photocopy paper made from 100 percent new fibers. Apart from being thick, smooth, slippery and white, both sides of the paper could be printed.


080

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

2) A4 Paper 70 grams which accounts for 90 percent of printing is made from 50 percent farmed tree fibers and 50 percent recycled fibers using waste or used materials as mixtures. Emphasis is also placed on reduction of the use of bleaching agents in the environmentally friendly production process. The result is paper jam-packed with a higher degree of opacity for high performance. Apart from being thick, smooth, slippery and white, both sides of the paper could be printed. Projects on Renovation and Redecoration of Branches and Office Buildings Thanachart Group has established guidelines for procuring construction raw materials for renovating and decorating branches and office buildings, which are environmentally friendly. In this connection, the Group recognizes the importance of procuring construction materials which meet quality standards in terms of occupational health, safety and the environment. In particular, in selecting interior paint for areas within branches and office buildings, emphasis is placed on paint which is safe for consumers and environmentally friendly. The objective is to minimize Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) exposure. As well, paint to be used must be free not only from Alkylphenol Ethoxylate (APEO) but also from other harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde, mercury, lead, cadmium, chromium and evaporators. Office Furniture Procurement Projects Thanachart Group has established guidelines for office furniture procurement, whose emphasis is placed on ensuring that raw materials used for production must be environmentally friendly and also that the furniture must be purchased from manufacturers whose product designs, production processes and green buildings must be environmentally friendly. Importantly, the raw materials used in the production processes must be recyclable. For example, one could recycle office furniture by changing their forms or rearranging them, instead of throwing them away as useless items. In this connection, recycling helps reduce the use of natural resources for reproduction. Another aspect is the steps involved in the design of products. For example, the area of a table top, arm rest and table legs could be designed in such a way that their left and right sides could be used without having to place orders for new parts in case offices have to be renovated or furniture has to be removed or relocated.

Online Procurement Project Thanachart Group has adopted an Online Purchasing System as its standard procurement procedure. As a result, apart from being able to reduce paper use by over 1 percent, compared with past consumption, the Group managed to save THB 150,000 per annum in terms of reduced paper usage expenses.

CSR in Process towards Other Stakeholders 1. “Rethink” Campaign Program TBANK has been implementing the “ReThink” campaign program for three years since 2015. It recognizes the importance of sharing financial knowledge and inculcating financial discipline in members of the general public in the Thai society. In so doing, it helps lay the foundation for their future financial security and sustainable happiness. The campaign is introduced under the slogan “Rethink, know how to use money and find happiness”. The concept is developed from the sufficiency economy philosophy conceived and developed by His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej. In 2017, TBANK publicized the program in numerous formats via various channels throughout the year. Among others, these included development of nuggets of financial wisdom, which could be applied to everyday life. In this connection, video clips about role models in the society, who prepared effective financial plans and budgets were developed and broadcasted on TV and social media sites including YouTube and Facebook of TBANK. Moreover, in order to make financial discipline and personal finance easy to understand in very stage of life, TBANK developed both print books and ebooks, aiming at inculcating in members of the general public a wake-up call on the importance of changing spending habits, living within one’s means, and disciplining oneself into saving money. Taking into account the change in the target groups’ information acquisition behavior in the digital world, TBANK also introduced and presented intermittently contents, advice and knowledge about personal financial management throughout the year via its other communication channels for public relations, which included Facebook, Line and website (www.thanachartcsr.com).

In this connection, TBANK’s program produced a 3-minute video clip titled ‘A rich man’s sons’, which went viral. It was about a story of an ordinary family consisting of a father and his children who lived a very simple life but full of happiness, mainly because the father inculcated positive attitudes and perspective of self-sufficient lifestyle in his children. The video which was distributed through TBANK’s various channels in 2015 was selected as “a PR clip for promoting moral conduct” and also won an honorable plaque of Prime Minister Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha.

2. ‘Thanachart Insurance – Yes, We Safe’ Project As an operator in insurance business, TNI recognizes the importance of losses caused by numerous car accidents that occur each year. As a result, it is determined not only to operate its business with responsibility towards the society but also to participate in promoting socially beneficial activities. In particular, it inculcates in members of the public the good consciousness of jointly implementing preventive measures for road safety in a continuous manner through its “Thanachart Insurance - Yes, We Safe” Project. The project consists of two key areas. The first one focuses on ensuring safety while the other focuses on giving different types of aid to victims of road traffic crashes. The program has been implemented since 2013. In 2017, TNI implemented the “Drive DD United Season 3” program. The objectives are to participate in preventing accidents on the road and ensuring road traffic safety. In particular, it provides university students at all levels nationwide, whose age does not exceed 25, with an opportunity to participate in submitting their entries in a video clip contest under three different themes namely, (a) thinking consciously, (b) innovation for saving all lives, and (c) driving slower on the road. Realizing that these students belong to the age group with the highest road traffic accident rate, the contest allows them to use the power of young generation not only in thinking but also in turning thought into action. Importantly, the contest helps inculcate the consciousness of safe driving in the youth who are on the receiving end of media messages. It is also hoped that many of them will probably become some of the people producing media messages for the public when they grow up, and that they will play a key role in inculcating in members of the general public the consciousness of building a society free from road

traffic accidents in a sustainable manner. In this connection, the program receives support and advice from both the public and private sectors including the Office of Insurance Commission (OIC), the Office of Accident Reduction Network, and the Thai Health Promotion Foundation (ThaiHealth). On the assistance side, believing that accidents could not be completely avoided, TNI has been giving scholarships to students of Sirindhorn School of Prosthetics and Orthotics, the Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University. The school produces professional prosthetists/orthotists with a Bachelor in Prosthetics and Orthotics.

With these devices and appliances, people with disabilities can live normal lives.

CSR after Process This type of CSR covers any activities other than those undertaken in the ordinary course of its business. Thanachart Group has been involved in this type of activities for a long time since the beginning of its business operations. Later, as the commercial banking services became one of Thanachart Group’s main businesses with an extensive branch network nationwide, the CSR activities have been implemented by regional hubs with cooperation from the staff members of Thanachart Group. Their customers, business counterparts, and people living in communities are also invited to participate in the activities. In 2017, the Group took part in the following CSR and environmental protection activities in order to promote and develop society in various areas. 1. Campaigns and promotion of Thai cultural identity and Buddhism: Thanachart Group participated in promoting activities related to Thai cultural identity, local traditions, and Buddhism, with participation of people living in the communities, employees, and members of the general public. 2. Promotion and support of implementation of activities for charity: Playing the role of a good corporate citizen, Thanachart Group participated in social development by giving support to the activities implemented by various

charitable organizations which were involved in strengthening society and making it sustainable. The activities covered all target groups, regardless of whether they are patients, children, youth, women or the underprivileged. 3. Promotion of education and educational development: Thanachart Group participated in the activities aiming at filling in education gaps as well as developing and streamlining the country’s educational systems so that they not only could produce quality children and youth but also raised their potential to the levels on a par with international standards. They were also provided with opportunities to enhance their competitiveness. The efforts laid a strong foundation for the country’s strengths and competitiveness. 4. Environmental protection: As part of its determination to implement activities which help reduce indirect impacts on the environment created by its business operations, Thanachart Group promoted education and understanding in using energy in the most efficient manner. It also participated in campaigns aiming at inculcating energy conservation culture in both executives and employees. Moreover, Thanachart Group has established the Thanachart Foundation for Thai Society which serves as a key mechanism in driving the implementation of the Group’s CSR activities. Most of the Foundation’s activities focus on creating a sound and sustainable society as well as social development. The main aim is to build a prototype model for developing communities and society in various ways. Emphasis is placed on the knowledge in developing, improving, and changing oneself, including thoughts, practicing skills, confidence, making decision as well as right attitudes and values suitable for making a living. Focus is also given on improvements of one’s livelihood based on His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s concept of the “sufficiency economy”. Importantly, Thanachart Group has established coordination networks for giving social assistance and services in case of unfortunate events.

Campaigns and Promotion of Thai Cultural Identity and Buddhism Presentation of Royal Kathin Robes in 2017 Thanachart Group has been hosting the presentation of Royal Kathin Robes for eleven years. The Group started hosting the presentation of Royal Kathin Robes back in 2006 at Wat Kaew Korawaram in Krabi Province. Since then, the activity has been implemented on a yearly basis. It is a corporate social responsibility activity which is aimed at promoting Thai cultural identity and Buddhism. In 2017, Thanachart Group was graciously bestowed by His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn Bodindradebayavarangkun to offer the Royal Robes at Wat Sao Tong Thong which was a royal temple in Lopburi Province. In this connection, member companies of Thanachart Group, their customers, business counterparts, executives, and staff members as well as members of the general public jointly donated THB 10,326,176.65 in good faith to the temple as part of the funds to be used for the construction of a multi-purpose hall, in which monks could perform religious rites. In addition, the Group gave scholarships not only to needy students with good academic records and good behavior but also to schools in the vicinity. “Thanachart Initiates and Fulfills Thai Identity” Project In appreciation of the royal kindness of Princess Bajrakitiyabha, the Royal Granddaughter, TBANK humbly invited Her Royal Highness Princess Bajrakitiyabha to preside over the opening ceremony of the final round of the 46th Annual Contest of “Thanachart Initiates and Fulfills Thai Identity” Project in 2017. The ceremony was held in Suanmali Hall of TBANK’s Suanmali Building. In this connection, Her Royal Highness graciously attended two previous reading aloud contests among students of lower and upper levels of the secondary education (Mathayom Suksa). Her Royal Highness Princess Bajrakitiyabha has been attaching great importance to preservation of Thai identity and culture. As part of her many contributions, Her Royal Highness currently gives assistance to several underprivileged groups in society. As a result, she makes a good role model for young people in the country.

“Thanachart Initiates and Fulfills Thai Identity” Project was inherited from Siam City Bank whose project previously called “Siam City Preservation of Thai Identity”. The implementation of the project in 2017 marked the 46th consecutive year. One of its main objectives is to maintain and preserve Thai identity including reading aloud Thai and using Thai manners in daily life. The project not only helps preserve the unique identity for Thai people and prevent its disintegration over time, but also strikes a balance between social values which have been increasingly affected by foreign cultures. Moreover, the project helps inspire and inculcate in Thai youth the love of Thai culture. The love makes them cherish the culture and helps keep it as part of Thai society forever. Both Thai language and Thai manners are widely recognized as unique characteristics of Thai identity. The project consists of two main activities including reading aloud contests and Thai manners contests. Representing their educational institutions, students from Prathomsuksa 1 to the university level are provided with an opportunity to participate in the contests to compete for Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn’s Cups, honorable shields and certificates of honor, as well as scholarships. In 2017, there were more than 4,000 students from every region participating in the contests and in this year there was still the Thai manners contests for hearingimpaired children to compete for Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn’s honorable shields and scholarships. In addition, TBANK recognizes the importance of promoting and supporting hearing-impaired children so that they have opportunities to participate in various social activities and are able to lead dignified lives as normal people. As well, these hearing-impaired children should be provided with opportunities to show their determination, intention, and potential for participating in the activities related to the maintenance and preservation of Thai identity by practicing Thai manners properly. This marked the 3rd consecutive year of the implementation. Furthermore, in 2017 an additional activity was implemented, aiming at encouraging children, young people, teachers and parents not only to recognize the importance of the preservation of Thai cultural identity but also to participate more actively in the project. In particular, TBANK held Beloved School Video Clip Contest whose particular topic was “Before Going on Stage”. The contest covered two areas including using Thai manners and reading aloud Thai.

Thanachart Group’s online media channels were mainly used for promoting the public relations activity. There were more than 50 schools participating in the contest. Garuda Museum by TBANK “The Garuda Museum by TBANK” is considered the first and only Garuda museum in ASEAN. Its establishment could be traced back to the event on 1 October 2011 in which TBANK took transfer of SCIB’s entire business. Before the acquisition, SCIB had been operating for over 70 years and the Royal Garuda Emblems had been graciously bestowed by His Majesty the King upon SCIB for display at its headquarters and branches since 1941. After the merger with TBANK in 2011, it was necessary to dismount Garuda Emblem in compliance with the Garuda Emblem Act (No. 2) B.E. 2535 (1992). TBANK recognized the value and the importance of the Royal Garuda Emblem which Thai people have a great faith in and a strong relationship with. The Emblem is also a symbol representing His Majesty the King of Thailand. As a result, TBANK respectfully relocated the Emblems from the headquarters and branches to its Bangpu Training Center in the municipal area of Tambon Bangpu, Samut Prakan Province. This was followed by the founding of the Garuda Museum. The Museum showcases various stories of Garuda in a multimedia format. The stories are principally based on Thai people’s basic understanding about Garuda and Buddhism beliefs. It is designed and created so that visitors could learn about the origin of Garuda according to the legend from the viewpoints of both Buddhism and Brahmanism. Importantly, an area in the museum has been set aside for exhibiting the Emblems which are respectfully relocated from SCIB’s branches. One of the objectives of the exhibition is to reflect the Royal Garuda Emblem’s relationship with the country’s three fundamental institutions, namely the Nation, Religion, and Monarchy. In addition, the museum serves as a resourceful place for children, youth, and interested members of the general public to learn about the history. In this connection, in 2017, the museum started creating an additional room for the exhibition on “Our Greatest King” in honor and appreciation of the fathomless kindness of Phrabat Somdet Phra Poraminthara Maha Bhumibol Adulyadej. The exhibition placed emphasis on presenting the relationship between the Garuda and the multifarious duties of Phrabat Somdet Phra Poraminthara Maha Bhumibol Adulyadej. The exhibition room would be completed in 2018.

Activities Related to Sustenance and Preservation of Local Traditions The activity related to sustenance and preservation of local traditions was originally introduced because Thanachart Group recognized the value of Thai identities, customs, and traditions in various localities throughout the country, which reflect ways of living, folk wisdom, and cultural growth. The heritages which have been passed from one generation to the next represent unique identities which no other country could imitate. They are invaluable and worthy of preservation. As a result, the activities related to “sustenance and preservation of local traditions” have been conceived. In this connection, TBANK’s network hubs which are located nationwide are responsible for implementing these activities and cooperating with communities as a member of their respective localities. This leads to cooperation among the employees, customers, members of the public as well as various institutes and agencies, both in the public and private sectors. The activities also include regional tourism promotion and public relations. In 2017, the activities organized in relation to the sustenance and preservation of local traditions were as follows: 1. Chinatown Chinese New Year Celebration in Bangkok, 2. Sustenance of 101 st Thai tradition festival, representing a new century of faith, Nakhon Sawan Province, 3. Commemoration marking the 42nd anniversary of the dealth of Luang Pu Tim Issariko, Wat Lahanrai, Rayong Province, 4. Candle festival for the Buddhist Lent in 2017 in Ubon Ratchathani Province, 5. Lotus throwing festival (held on the 14th day of 11th lunar month) in Samut Prakan Province, 6. Sustenance of vegetarian tradition and culture, Phuket Province, 7. Conservation of Yi Peng festival in Chiang Mai Province.

Promotion and Support of Implementation of Activities for Charity Annual Red Cross Fair TBANK participated in the sale of Red Cross lottery tickets as well as the Red Cross Fair which was held annually. The participation in the annual fair could be traced back to the year 1976 when Bangkok Metropolitan Bank was the only commercial bank which was invited to join the Red Cross Fair, at which the bank used the name of “Bangkok Metropolitan Bank’s Red Cross Booth”. Later in 2002 when Bangkok Metropolitan Bank merged with SCIB, the name of SCIB was used at the fair under the name “Siam City Bank’s Red Cross Booth”. Then in 2011 when the business of SCIB was transferred to TBANK, the name of “Thanachart Bank” was used at the fair. The booth name was “Thanachart Bank’s Red Cross Booth”. Today, it is still the only commercial bank with a booth at the Annual Red Cross Fair in Suan Amporn Park.

In 2017, the Red Cross Fair organizer announced cancellation of the Annual Red Cross Fair for 2017 to pay a final tribute and farewell to Phrabat Somdet Phra Poraminthara Maha Bhumibol Adulyadej who was the Patron of the Thai Red Cross Society. However, TBANK continued issuing and selling Red Cross lottery tickets. The proceeds of the sale worth THB 6,300,000 were humbly presented to Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Siridhorn, Executive Vice President of the Council of the Thai Red Cross Society, for supporting the Society.

Bridge-of-merit Project Thanachart Group is determined to play a part in supporting the work of charitable organizations in a sustainable manner. This could be traced back to the “Thanachart Initiates and Fulfills…Merit Saving Exposition” project implemented in 2009. Charitable organizations were invited to participate in the exposition, open their booths and publicize the work of their organizations. The implementation of the project received good responses from customers, members of the public and charitable organizations. As a result, in 2011 TBANK decided to establish a project called “the bridge-of-merit” to carry on its support to the work of charitable organizations in a sustainable manner. The main objectives of the project were to fill the gaps between givers and recipients and to serve as the bridge linking

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Shareholders of Thanachart Bank Public Company Limited Opinion I have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Thanachart Bank Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2017, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and have also audited the separate financial statements of Thanachart Bank Public Company Limited for the same period. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Thanachart Bank Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries and of Thanachart Bank Public Company Limited as at 31 December 2017, their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards. Basis for Opinion I conducted my audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing. My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report. I am independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants as issued by the Federation of Accounting Professions as relevant to my audit of the financial statements, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprise the information included in annual report of the Group, but does not include the financial statements and my auditor’s report thereon. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with my audit of the financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, I am required to report that fact. I have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.


154

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. I also: • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. I am responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. I remain solely responsible for my audit opinion. I communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I identify during my audit. I am responsible for the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report.

Financial reporting standards that became effective in the current year During the year, the Bank and its subsidiaries have adopted the revised financial reporting standards and interpretations (revised 2016) and new accounting treatment guidance which are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2017. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards, with most of the changes directed towards revision of wording and terminology, and provision of interpretations and accounting guidance to users of standards. The adoption of these financial reporting standards does not have any significant impact on the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ financial statements.

3.2

Financial reporting standards that will become effective in the future During the current year, the Federation of Accounting Professions issued a number of revised financial reporting standards and interpretations (revised 2017) which are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2018. These financial reporting standards were aimed at alignment with the corresponding International Financial Reporting Standards with most of the changes and clarifications directed towards disclosures in the notes to financial statements. The management of the Bank and its subsidiaries believe that the revised financial reporting standards will not have any significant impact on the financial statements when they are initially applied.

Significant accounting policies

4.1

Revenue recognition a)

Interest and discounts on loans Interest on loan is recognised as income on an accrual basis, based on the amount of principal outstanding. Interest on hire purchase and financial lease is recognised based on the effective interest method. For loans on which principal or interest payments have been defaulted for more than three months past the due date, the Bank and its subsidiaries cease accrual of interest income, and accrued interest already recorded is reversed from the Bank and its subsidiaries’ accounts. Interest is then recognised as income on a cash basis until settlement of such overdue balance has been received from the debtors. Interest income on restructured loans is recognised as income on an accrual basis, with reference to the interest rate stipulated in the agreements, with the exception of interest on loans that are subject to monitoring for compliance with restructuring conditions, which the Bank and its subsidiaries recognise as income on a cash basis until the receivable is able to comply with the restructuring conditions for a period of no less than three months or three installments, whichever is longer. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognise interest income on investments in purchased/transferred loans for which loan repayment is received during the year based on the effective yield rate of the portfolio multiplied by the new book value (acquisition cost) of the outstanding balances of receivables, to the extent that this is not greater than the amount received from such receivables. After the restructuring, interest income is recognised using the effective interest method, for those receivables from which loan repayment was received during the year.


168

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Interest or discounts already included in the face value of notes receivable or loans are recorded as deferred interest and taken up as income evenly throughout the term of the notes or loans or in proportion of debt repayment. Interest income received in advance on hire purchase represents discounted on interest given to debtors by dealers, is recognised based on the effective interest method, in the same manner as interest income on hire purchase receivables. b)

Interest and dividends on investments Interest on investments is recognised as income on an accrual basis based on the effective interest rate. Dividends are recognised as income when the right to receive the dividends is established.

c)

Brokerage fee income Brokerage fees on trading of securities and derivatives are recognised as income on the transaction date.

d)

Interest on margin loans for purchase of securities Interest on margin loans for purchases of securities is recognised as income over the term of the loans based on the amount of principal outstanding. The subsidiary company ceases accruing interest for certain loans that fall under the conditions set by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

e)

Gains (losses) on investments and derivatives Gains (losses) on investments and derivatives are recognised as income/expenses on the transaction date.

f)

Fees and service income Fees and service income are recognised on an accrual basis. When the Bank and its subsidiaries provide loyalty programs to customers, they apportion compensation received from such services based on the fair value of accumulated reward points and realise it as deferred revenue. This deferred revenue is recorded under “other liabilities” in the statement of financial position. The Bank and its subsidiaries then realise it as revenue through the statement of comprehensive income when the customers claim a reward and the Bank and its subsidiaries have fulfilled their commitment to provide such reward.


169

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

g)

Insurance premium income Premium income consists of direct premium and reinsurance premium less premium of cancelled policies and premiums refunded to policy holders, and adjusted with unearned premium reserve. Direct premium income is recognised on the date the insurance policy comes into effect. For long-term insurance policies with coverage periods of longer than 1 year, related premium are recorded as unearned items, and recognised as income over the coverage period. Reinsurance premium income is recognised as income when the reinsurer places the reinsurance application or the statement of accounts.

4.2

Expenses recognition a)

Interest expenses Interest expenses are charged to expenses on an accrual basis. Interest on notes payable included in the face value is recorded as deferred interest and amortised to expenses evenly throughout the term of the notes.

b)

Commission and direct expenses charged on hire purchase/financial leases Initial direct expenses at the inception of a hire purchase/financial lease contract (i.e. commission expenses and stamp duty expenses) are to be deferred and amortised using the effective interest method, with amortisation deducted from interest income throughout the contract period, in order to reflect the effective rate of return on the contracts. Unearned income on hire purchase/financial leases is presented net of commission expenses and initial direct cost on the inception of the contracts.

c)

Fees and service expenses Fees and service expenses are recognised as expenses on an accrual basis.

4.3

Investments Investments in securities held for trading are stated at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these securities are recorded in profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income. Investments in available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these securities are recorded in other comprehensive income in the statements of comprehensive income, and will be recognised in profit or loss when the securities are sold.


170

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Investments in held-to-maturity debt securities are stated at amortised cost. Premiums/ discounts on debt securities are amortised/accreted by the effective rate method with the amortised/accreted amount presented as an adjustment to the interest income. Investments in non-marketable equity securities, which are classified as general investments, are stated at cost net of allowance for impairment (if any). The fair value of marketable securities is based on the latest bid price of the last working day of the year. The fair value of debt securities is determined using the yield rates quoted by the Thai Bond Market Association, other markets, or yield rate of government bond adjusted by an appropriate risk factor, as the case may be. The fair value of unit trusts is determined from their net asset value. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognise loss on impairment (if any) of available-for-sale securities, held-to-maturity debt securities and general investments in profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income. In the event that the Bank and its subsidiaries transfer investments to another category, the investments are valued at their fair values prevailing on the transfer date. Differences between the carrying amount of the investments and their fair value on that date are recorded as profit or loss or other comprehensive income in the statements of comprehensive income, depending on the type of investment being reclassified. On disposal of an investment, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the investment is recognised in profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income. In case of disposal partial of the investment, the carrying value per share used to calculate the cost of the portion sold is determined using the weighted average method. 4.4

Investments in receivables purchased and allowance for impairment Investments in receivables purchased are presented at their acquisition cost net of allowance for impairment (if any). Loss on impairment is recognised as an expense in profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income. In case that the receivables purchased enter into debt restructuring agreements, they are transferred to loans to customers and presented at fair value. The fair value is determined based on the outstanding balance of investments as at the transfer date or as at the date of restructuring. Allowance for impairment of investments in receivables purchased is determined based on the fair value, with reference to the collateral value.


171

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

4.5

Investments in subsidiary and associated companies Investments in subsidiary and associated companies in the separate financial statements are accounted for under the cost method net of allowance for impairment (if any). Loss on impairment is recognised as expenses in part of profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income. Investments in associated companies in the consolidated financial statements are accounted for under the equity method. Under this method, investments are initially recorded at acquisition cost and are adjusted to reflect the attributable shares of the net income from the operations of the associated companies, in proportion to the investment.

4.6

Loans to customers Loans to customers are stated at the principal balances, excluding accrued interest receivables, except for overdrafts which are presented at the principal balances plus accrued interest receivables. Unrecognised deferred income and discounts on loans are deducted from the loan balances. Hire purchase receivables and financial lease receivables are stated at the contract value of the hire purchase receivables and financial lease receivables net of unearned income, which is presented after netting commission expenses and initial direct cost on the inception of the contracts. Securities and derivatives business receivables comprise the net balances of securities business receivable and derivatives business receivables. Securities business receivable comprises credit balance receivables (for which the securities purchased are used as collateral), securities borrowing and lending receivables and guarantee deposit receivables (which comprise cash placed as guarantee for borrowers of securities or Thailand Securities Depository) as well as other receivables, such as overdue amounts in cash accounts and receivables which are under legal proceedings, are undergoing restructuring, or are being settled in installments. The receivable balance of cash accounts is presented as “Receivables from purchase and sale of securities�.

4.7

Allowances for doubtful accounts a)

Allowance for doubtful accounts for loans The Bank and its subsidiary that operates in asset management business provide allowance for doubtful accounts in accordance with the Notifications of the BOT and adjust these by the additional amount which is expected not to be collectible based on an evaluation of the current status of the debtors, taking into consideration the recovery risk and the value of collateral. Increase (decrease) in an allowance for doubtful accounts is recognised as an expense during the year.


172

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

For loans, excluding hire purchase receivable - personal consuming of the Bank, the Bank and its subsidiary set provision for normal loans (including restructured receivables) and special mention loans at minimum rates of 1% and 2%, respectively, of the loan balances (excluding accrued interest receivable) net of collateral value. For non-performing loans, provision is set at a rate of 100% of the debt balance remaining after deducting the present value of expected future cash flows from debt collection or the present value of expected cash flows from collateral disposal, based on the use of a discount rate and assumptions as to the time needed to dispose of the collateral, in accordance with the BOT’s guideline. However, non-performing hire purchase receivables and financial lease receivables are treated as uncollateralised. The Bank sets provision for hire purchase receivable - personal consuming of the Bank using the collective approach, which classifies groups of receivables having similar credit risk characteristics, and taking into account the historical loss of loans calculated based on the probability of default and a percentage of the loss given default. Furthermore, the Bank has set aside an additional provision by taking into consideration the potential additional loss arising from changes in economic circumstances that may impact certain borrowers’ ability to pay. This methodology, its parameters and assumptions have been reviewed in detail and will be monitored on an ongoing basis for continued applicability. b)

Subsidiary engaged in securities business has provided an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of debtors’ repayment capability, taking into consideration the risk of recovery and the value of collateral. An allowance is set aside for doubtful debts not fully covered by collateral and/or those which may not be fully recovered. Such debt classifications and provisions are made in accordance with the Notifications of the SEC.

c)

Subsidiaries engaged in hire purchase and leasing businesses have provided allowance for doubtful accounts at percentages of the amount of principal outstanding net of unearned income, based on the number of months overdue (with reference to the classification of loans under the BOT’s guidelines). Allowance for doubtful accounts is provided based on the loan balances after net of collateral value for receivables overdue no more than 3 months, while provided based on the loans balance without deducting collateral value for receivables overdue more than 3 months.

d)

Allowance for doubtful accounts for other receivables is set up based on the amount of debt that may not be collectible, determined from a review of the current status of the receivables as at the financial reporting date.


173

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

e)

The Bank and its subsidiaries write off receivables when they determine that such receivables may not be collectible. Amounts written off as bad debts or bad debt recovery are deducted from or added to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

4.8

Troubled debt restructuring In cases where the debt restructuring involves modifications of the terms of repayment, the fair value of the receivables after restructuring is based on the net present value of expected future cash flows, discounted by the market’s minimum loan rate for credit to large customers prevailing at the restructuring date. The differences between the fair values of receivables as of the restructuring date and their previous book values is recorded as “Revaluation allowance for debt restructuring”, and recognised as an expense in part of profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income in the restructuring period. The Bank and its subsidiaries review such revaluation allowance based on the net present value of future cash flows over the remaining period to maturity, recognising adjustments against impairment losses of loans accounts. In cases where the troubled debt restructuring involves the transfer of assets or equity, the Bank and its subsidiaries record the assets or equity interest received as a result of debt restructuring at their fair value (based on the value appraised by internal appraisers or external independent appraisers) providing this does not exceed the amount of principal legally claimable from the debtor (including interest of which recognition has ceased until the restructuring date). Any excess of the fair value of the assets over the book value is recognised as gain on restructuring or interest income in part of profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income, as the case may be. Losses arising from debt restructuring through waivers of part of principal or recorded accrued interest receivable are recognised as losses in part of profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income when incurred.

4.9

Recognition and amortisation of customers’ assets Assets which customers have placed with the subsidiary company for securities trading, in term of cash accounts and credit balance accounts, including amounts which customers have placed as security for derivative trading, are recorded as assets and liabilities of the subsidiary company for internal control purpose. As at the reporting date, the subsidiary company eliminates those amounts which there are no guarantee obligations from both assets and liabilities and present only those assets which belong to the subsidiary company.


174

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

4.10 Property foreclosed Property foreclosed is stated at the lower of cost (fair value with reference to appraisal value, providing this does not exceed the legally claimable amount of debt) or net realisable value, which is determined with reference to the latest appraisal value less estimated selling expenses, adjusts these in accordance with the BOT’s guideline and taking into consideration the type and the nature of the assets. Gains on disposal of property foreclosed are recognised as income in part of profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income on the disposal date, unless the purchase is made with a loan from the Bank. In such cases, gains are recognised in accordance with the BOT’s guideline. Losses on disposal and impairment losses are recognised as expenses in part of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. 4.11 Land, premises and equipment and depreciation a)

Land is stated at revalued amount less allowance for impairment (if any). No depreciation is provided on land. The Bank and its subsidiaries initially record land at its cost on the acquisition date, and subsequently have it revalued by an independent professional appraiser, and state it at the revalued amount. Revaluations are made with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from fair value at the end of reporting period. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognise the differences arising from the revaluation as follows: -

When an asset’s carrying amount is increased as a result of the revaluation, the increase is credited directly to other comprehensive income and the cumulative increase is recognised in equity under the heading of “Surplus on revaluation of assets”. However, the revaluation increase is recognised as income to the extent that it reverses the revaluation decrease in respect of the same asset previously recognised as an expense.

-

When an asset’s carrying amount is decreased as a result of the revaluation, the decrease is recognised in profit or loss. However, the revaluation decrease is charged to other comprehensive income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount already held in “Surplus on revaluation of assets” in respect of the same asset.


175

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

b)

Assets under installation are stated at cost, and depreciation is not provided.

c)

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and allowance for impairment (if any). Depreciation is calculated by reference to their cost on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings

-

20 - 30

years

Buildings improvement

-

5 - 10

years

Furniture, fixtures and equipment

-

3 - 10

years

Motor vehicles

-

5

years

Depreciation is included in determining income. d)

Land, premises and equipment are derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from their use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of these assets (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is recognised in profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income.

e)

The Bank and its subsidiaries derecognise the revaluation surplus on an asset upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The revaluation surplus, remaining upon derecognition, is transferred directly to retained earnings.

4.12 Intangible assets and amortisation Intangible assets acquired through business combination are initially recognised at their fair value on the date of business acquisition while intangible assets acquired in other cases are recognised at cost. Following the initial recognition, the intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses (if any). The Bank and its subsidiaries amortised intangible assets with finite lives on a systematic basis over their economic useful life and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method of such intangible assets are reviewed at least at each financial year end. The amortisation expense and loss on impairment are recognised as expenses in part of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. The intangible assets with finite useful lives have useful lives of approximately 3 - 10 years. No amortisation for computer software under development.


176

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

4.13 Leasehold rights Leasehold rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation. Leasehold rights are amortised on a straight-line basis over the lease periods and the amortisation amounts are recognised as expenses in part of profit or loss in the statements of comprehensive income. 4.14 Business combination and goodwill Business combination accounted for under purchase method. Goodwill is initially recorded at cost, which equals to the excess of the cost of business combination over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses (if any). Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. 4.15 Receivable from/payable to Clearing House Receivable from/payable to Clearing House comprise the net balance receivable/payable in respect of securities trades settled and derivatives business. These also include amounts pledged with Thailand Clearing House as security for derivatives trading. 4.16 Classification of insurance contracts A subsidiary classifies insurance contracts and reinsurance contracts based on the nature of the contract. An insurance contract is one under which the insurer has accepted significant insurance risk from another party by agreeing to compensate the policyholder if a specified uncertain future event (the insured event) adversely affects the policyholder. Determination of whether a significant insurance risk has been accepted is based on comparison of the amount of benefit payable under the contract if an insured event occurs with the payment obligation if the insured event does not occur. If a contract does not meet these criteria, the subsidiary classifies it as an investment contract. Investment contracts are those contracts that transfer significant financial risk but not significant insurance risk. Financial risks are the interest rate risk, exchange rate risk and price risk. A subsidiary classifies insurance contracts by determining significant insurance risk individually. Once a contract has been classified as an insurance contract, it remains an insurance contract for the remainder of its lifetime, unless all rights and obligations are extinguished or expire. Investment contracts can, however, be reclassified as insurance contracts after inception if insurance risk becomes significant.


177

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

4.17 Securities purchased under resale agreements/ securities sold under repurchase agreements The Bank enters into agreements with private entities to purchase/sell securities whereby there is an agreement to resell/repurchase the securities at certain dates and at fixed price. Amounts paid for the securities purchased under resale agreement are presented as assets under the caption of interbank and money market items or loans to customers, depending on the counterparty, and the underlying securities are treated as collateral to such receivables. The securities sold under repurchase agreement at the amounts received are presented as liabilities under the caption of interbank and money market items in the statement of financial position and the underlying securities are treated as collateral. 4.18 Premium receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts Premium receivable from both direct and reinsurance is stated at its net realisable value. The subsidiary provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the estimated loss that may be incurred in the collection of the premium due, on the basis of collection experience and a review of current status of the premium receivable as at the end of reporting period. 4.19 Reinsurance assets and liabilities a)

Reinsurance assets represent amounts due from reinsurers (consisting of claims receivable and various other items receivable for reinsurers excluding reinsurance premium receivable less allowance for doubtful accounts), amounts deposited on reinsurance and insurance reserve refundable from reinsurers. Insurance reserve refundable from reinsurers is estimated based on the proportion of premium reserve and loss reserve made in accordance with the law regarding insurance reserve calculation that has been reinsured.

b)

Amounts due to reinsurers are stated at the outstanding balances payable from reinsurance and amounts withheld on reinsurance. Amounts due to reinsurers consist of reinsurance premiums and other items payable to reinsurers.


178

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

4.20 Premium reserve Premium insurance reserve comprises unearned premium reserve and unexpired risks reserve. a)

Unearned premium reserve Unearned premium reserve is calculated based on direct premium before deducting premium ceded as follows: Transportation (cargo), travelling -

100% of premium as from the date policy is

accident with coverage periods of

effective, throughout the period of insurance

not over six-months

coverage

Others

-

Monthly average basis (the one-twenty fourth basis)

Unearned reinsurance premiums reserve is calculated based on the proportion of premiums ceded, using the same method as that applied for direct insurance policies that transfer the insurance risk throughout the term of the insurance contract to a reinsurer. b)

Unexpired risks reserve Unexpired risks reserve is the reserve for the future claims that may be incurred in respect of in-force policies. Unexpired risks reserve is set aside using an actuarial method, at the best estimate of the claims that are expected to be incurred during the remaining period of coverage, based on historical claims data.

At the end of each reporting date, the subsidiary compares the amounts of unexpired risks reserve with the unearned premium reserve, and if unexpired risks reserve is higher than unearned premium reserve, the difference is recognised as unexpired risks reserve in the financial statements. 4.21 Loss reserve and outstanding claims Outstanding claims are recorded at the actual amount to be paid. Loss reserve is recorded upon the receipt of the claims advice from the insured based on the number of claims notified by the insured and estimates made by a subsidiary’s management. The estimated value of losses is limited to not more than the sum insured of the related insurance policies. In addition, the subsidiary set up additional reserve for losses incurred but not reported (IBNR) using an actuarial method based on a best estimate of claims which are expected to be paid in the future for losses occurring before or as at the reporting date, including both reported and unreported claims, and net of recorded claims.


179

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

4.22 Long-term leases Leases that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Bank and its subsidiaries are classified as financial leases. Financial leases are capitalised at the lower of the fair value of the leased assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The outstanding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other payables, while the interest element is charged to profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income over the lease period. Assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Leases of assets which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 4.23 Financial derivatives The Bank and its subsidiaries have entered into derivative financial instruments in order to manage risk of the Bank and its subsidiaries and in response to customer needs. Financial derivative contracts which were originated for trading purposes are recorded as off-balance items. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the contracts are recognised as part of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. The fair values of the contracts are based on the quoted market prices. If the fair value of financial derivatives cannot be determined with reference to market price, it is determined using valuation techniques and models, in which the variables used, are derived from observable market factors and adjusted to reflect counterparty credit risk. Other financial derivative contracts (forward foreign currency contracts, interest rate swap contracts and cross currency and interest rate swap contracts) which were not originated for trading purposes are recorded as off-balance items, and presented on an accrual basis. Foreign currency components are translated at the period-end exchange rate, in the same manner as the hedged items, with unrealised gains or losses on translation recognised as part of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. Interest rate components are presented on an accrual basis, in the same manner as the hedged assets or liabilities, with gains or losses recorded to interest income and interest expense over the terms of the contracts. Receivables and payables under foreign exchange contracts are presented at the net amount in the statement of financial position.

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

4.24 Related party transactions Related parties comprise enterprises and individuals that control, or are controlled by, the Bank and its subsidiaries, whether directly or indirectly, or which are under common control with the Bank and its subsidiaries. They also include associated companies and individuals which directly or indirectly own a voting interest in the Bank and its subsidiaries that give them significant influence over the Bank and its subsidiaries, key management personnel, directors and officers with authority in the planning and direction of the Bank’s and its subsidiaries’ operations. 4.25 Impairment of assets At the end of each reporting date, the Bank and its subsidiaries assess whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. The Bank and its subsidiaries perform impairment review whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. Loss on impairment is recognised when the asset’s recoverable amount is less than the book value. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Fair value less costs to sell reflects the amount that the Bank and its subsidiaries could obtain at the financial reporting date from the disposal of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, after deducting the costs of disposal. 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. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognise impairment losses as expenses in part of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income. In assessing impairment of asset other than goodwill, if there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased, the Bank and its subsidiaries estimate the asset’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss for assets other than goodwill 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. The increased carrying amount of the asset attributable to a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined in case that no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in part of profit or loss in the statement of comprehensive income.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

4.26 Structured notes Structured notes are debentures which a subsidiary offered to customers, who are institutional investors or high net worth investors. The notes are issued under conditions approved by the Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the underlying assets are securities listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The notes are recorded at amortised cost, adjusted by the discount on the notes. The discount is amortised by the effective rate method with the amortised amount presented as interest expenses in profit or loss. Embedded derivatives are recorded as derivative assets at fair value and the changes in fair value are recorded in profit or loss. In determining the fair value, the subsidiary uses a valuation technique and theoretical model. The input to the model is derived from observable market conditions that include liquidity, dividend, interest rate, and the price and the volatility of the underlying asset. 4.27 Employee benefits a)

Short-term employee benefits The Bank and its subsidiaries recognised short-term employee benefits such as salary, wages, bonuses, contributions to the social security fund and vacation as expenses when incurred.

b)

Post-employment benefits (Defined contribution plans) The Bank, its subsidiaries and its employees have jointly established a provident fund. The fund is monthly contributed by employees and by the Bank and its subsidiaries. The fund’s assets are held in a separate trust fund, and the Bank and its subsidiaries’ contributions are recognised as expenses when incurred.

c)

Post-employment benefits (Defined benefit plans) The Bank and its subsidiaries have obligations in respect of the severance payments it must make to employees upon retirement under labor law. The Bank and its subsidiaries treat these severance payment obligations as a defined benefit plan. The obligation under the defined benefit plan is determined by a professionally qualified independent actuary, using the projected unit credit method. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognise actuarial gains and losses in other comprehensive income.

4.28 Foreign currencies The consolidated and separate financial statements are presented in Baht, which are also the Bank and its subsidiaries’ functional currency. Items of each entity included in the consolidated financial statements of each entity are measured using the functional currency of that entity. Foreign currency transactions are translated into Baht at the exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and commitment outstanding on the financial reporting date have been translated into Baht at the rates ruling at the reporting date. Exchange gains and losses arising from trading or translation of foreign currencies are included in determining income. 4.29 Income tax Income tax expense represents the sum of current income tax and deferred tax. Current income tax Current income tax is provided in the accounts at the amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, based on taxable profits determined in accordance with tax legislation. Deferred tax Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts at the end of each reporting period, using the tax rates enacted at the end of the reporting period. The Bank and its subsidiaries recognise deferred tax liabilities for all taxable temporary differences while they recognise deferred tax assets for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses can be utilised. At each reporting date, the Bank and its subsidiaries review and reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. The Bank and its subsidiaries record deferred tax directly to equity if the tax relates to items that are recorded directly to equity.

4.30 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Bank and its subsidiaries have a present obligation 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. 4.31 Fair value measurement Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Bank and its subsidiaries use the quoted price in an active market to measure the fair value of a financial asset and liability whenever such a price is available. If a quoted price in an active market is not available, the Bank and its subsidiaries measure fair value using a generally accepted valuation technique, which includes analysis of the present value of cash flows and use of a theoretical valuation model. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy into three levels based on categorise of input to be used in fair value measurement as follows: Level 1 -

Use of quoted market prices for the same assets or liabilities in an observable active market

Level 2 -

Use of other inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, whether directly or indirectly

Level 3 -

Use of unobservable inputs such as estimates of future cash flows

At the end of each reporting period, the Bank and its subsidiaries determine whether transfers have occurred between levels within the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 5.

Significant accounting judgements and estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Thai Financial Reporting Standards at times requires management to make subjective judgements and estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgements and estimates affect reported amounts and disclosures; and actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant judgements and estimates are as follows:


184

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

5.1

Recognition and derecognition of assets and liabilities In considering whether to recognise or to derecognise assets or liabilities, the management is required to make judgement on whether significant risk and rewards of those assets or liabilities have been transferred, based on their best knowledge of the current events and arrangements.

5.2

Allowance for doubtful accounts for loans and allowance for impairment of investment in receivables Allowance for doubtful accounts for loans and allowance for impairment of investment in receivables are intended to adjust the value of loans for probable credit losses. The management uses the BOT’s and SEC’s regulations regarding the provision of allowance for doubtful accounts and judgements to estimate losses on outstanding loans when there is any doubt about the borrower’s capability to repay the principal and the interest. The allowances for loan losses are determined through a combination of specific reviews, probability of default, value of collateral and current economic conditions.

5.3

Allowance for impairment of investments in securities The Bank and its subsidiaries review an impairment of investments in securities when indication of impairment exists. The determination of what is indication of impairment requires the management’s judgement.

5.4

Assessment of investment funds as structured entities In determining whether the funds to which a subsidiary provides asset management services are structured entities, the management is required to use judgement, taking into consideration the voting rights and other similar rights afforded to other parties, including the rights to remove the subsidiary as fund manager, liquidate the funds, or redeem holdings in the funds, and determining whether such rights are the dominant factor when deciding who controls the funds.

5.5

Fair value of financial instruments In determining the fair value of financial instruments that are not actively traded and for which quoted market prices are not readily available, the management exercise judgement, using a variety of valuation techniques and models. The input to these models is taken from observable markets, and includes consideration of credit risk of counterparty, liquidity, correlation and longer-term volatility of financial instruments. Change in assumptions about these factors could affect the fair value and disclosures of fair value hierarchy.


185

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

5.6

Allowance for impairment of properties foreclosed The Bank and its subsidiaries assess allowance for impairment of properties foreclosed when net realisable value falls below the book value. The management uses the BOT’s regulation and judgement to estimate impairment losses, taking into consideration the latest appraisal value, the type and the nature of the assets.

5.7

Land, premises and equipment and depreciation In determining depreciation of premises and equipment, the management is required to make estimates of the useful lives and salvage values of the premises and equipment, and to review these estimated useful lives and salvage values when there are any changes. The Bank and its subsidiaries measure land at revalued amounts. Such amounts are determined by the independent appraisers using the market approach. The valuation involves certain assumptions and estimates as described in Note 15 to the financial statements. In addition, the management assesses whether there are indicators of the impairment of land, premises and equipment, and record impairment losses in the year when it is determined that the recoverable amounts are lower than the carrying amounts. This requires judgements in terms of forecasting future revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to the review.

5.8

Goodwill and intangible assets The initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and intangible assets, and subsequent impairment testing, require management to exercise judgement as to the recoverable amount to be generated by the asset, using the discounted cash flows method, and including the selection of a suitable discount rate in order to determine the present value of that cash flow. The estimated cash flows may differ as a result of competitive forces, or changes in revenue trends, cost structures, and the discount rate, industry circumstances or related market conditions.

5.9

Deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences and unused tax losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and level of estimated future taxable profits.


186

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

5.10 Finance lease/Operating lease In determining whether a lease is to be classified as an operating lease or finance lease, the management is required to use judgement regarding whether significant risk and rewards of ownership of the leased asset has been transferred, taking into consideration terms and conditions of the arrangement. 5.11 Unearned premium reserve Unexpired risk reserve is calculated under an actuarial method, which reflects the best estimate of losses expected to be incurred over the remaining period of the insurance. 5.12 Loss reserve and outstanding claims At the end of each reporting date, the subsidiary estimates loss reserves and outstanding claims in two parts; loss incurred for which the claims advice has been received from the insured, and loss incurred but not reported (IBNR). The IBNR reserve is calculated using an international standard actuarial method. The main assumptions underlying these techniques relate to historical claims experience, including development of estimates of paid and incurred losses, average costs per claim, and claim numbers. Such estimates require the management to exercise judgement in order to reflect the best estimates available at that time. 5.13 Post-employment benefits under defined benefit plans Obligations under the defined benefit plan are determined by using actuarial technique. Such determination is made based on various assumptions, including discount rate, future salary increase rate, staff turnover rate, and mortality rate, based on their best knowledge of current situation. 5.14 Litigation and contingent liabilities The Bank and its subsidiaries have contingent liabilities as a result of litigation and contingent liabilities as a result of transfer of business and transfer of non-performing assets. The management has used judgement to assess of the results of such transactions, and in case where they believe that there will be no losses, no provisions are recorded as at the end of the reporting period.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

Goodwill The Bank and its subsidiaries allocated goodwill acquired through business combinations to the cash generating unit (CGU) for annual impairment testing, on the assumption that the CGU is the consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries. The recoverable amount of the CGU have been determined based on value in use calculation using cash flow projections for the consolidated operating results of the Bank and its subsidiaries covering a five-year period. Key assumptions used in value in use calculation are summarised below: Rate (Percentage) Terminal growth rate Discount rate

4 11

The management of the Bank determined these key assumptions based on historical operating results and expected market growth. The discount rate used is a rate that reflects risks specific to the Bank and its subsidiaries. The management of the Bank believes that changes in the key assumptions used to determine the value in use of the CGU would not result in impairment. The management of the Bank believes that there is no impairment of goodwill.

Assumptions used in determining liabilities from insurance contracts The assumptions used in determining liabilities from insurance contracts are set taking into consideration the model used to assess, the nature of the data, including actual experience up to the date the assessment is made. The analysis performed considers both internal and external factors that affect the pattern of experience, such as the underwriting process, the proportion of insurance, the process of claims handling, the reinsurance policy, economic trends and regulatory changes. In the event that historical loss data is insufficient to be a credible basis for the determination of the assumptions, industry information is used to ensure that this method is appropriate. In addition, the assumptions used in determining insurance liabilities should be consistent with the assumptions used in determining claims liabilities.


238

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

Sensitivity analysis Sensitivity analysis is performed to analyse the risk that insurance liabilities will increase or decrease as a result of changes in the assumptions used in calculating those liabilities, which will impact claims liabilities both before reinsurance and after reinsurance. The risk may occur because the frequency and severity of the damage or loss adjustment claim expense may not be in line with expectations. (Unit: Million Baht) 2017 Increase/

23.3 Insurance risk Insurance risk is the risk that the frequency and severity of losses may deviate from the assumptions used in determining the premium rate, reserve calculations and underwriting. Insurance risk can be divided into three types, depending on the source of the risk, and these consist of product development and pricing risk, underwriting risk and claims management risk. A subsidiary has insurance risk management procedures covering risk identification, risk assessment using risk measurement indexes like the estimated ultimate combine ratio and claim management, as well as the monitoring and reporting of risk, in order to ensure that risk is appropriately reflected. 24.

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

42.2 Financial positions and results of operations classified by business type Identification of the Bank’s operating segments The Bank’s operating segments are identified in accordance with the Bank’s organisation structure, which is determined based on the Bank’s management policies. The three operating segments identified are as follows: 1.

Retail banking segment: This serves individual customers, with related products offering such as deposits, housing loans, hire purchase loans, and credit card services.

2.

Corporate and SME segment: This serves business customers, with related products offering such as short-term and long-term loans, and import and export trade financing.

3.

Treasury, investment and other business segment: These deals with money market and investment transactions, transactions with related companies, staff welfare loans and others.

The accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as those applied by the Bank. The Bank allocates only revenue-generating assets based on the type of business. Assets that do not generate revenue are allocated to other business segment. The chief operating decision maker reviews the operating results of each segment separately in order to make decisions on the allocation of resources to each operating segment and to assess performance. The Bank measures segment performance based on net interest income generated by each segment with net interest income being interest income and interest expenses from external customers, net of interest income and interest expenses from inter-segment lending and borrowing that is presented in the other business segment. For inter-segment borrowing, market interest rates are charged. Operating expenses are allocated in proportion to the operations of each segment. Expenses arising in respect of the assets that do not generate income, such as depreciation and leasehold amortisation, are presented in other business segment. Operating segments: Thanachart Bank and its subsidiaries The Bank and its subsidiaries have four operating segments, which are 1) the banking segment, consisting of three segments described above 2) the securities business segment 3) the non-life insurance segment and 4) the asset management segment. Financial information of the Bank and its subsidiaries presented by segment is as follow:

ANNUAL REPORT 2017

44.3 Commitments of SCIB from transfer of business from Bangkok Metropolitan Bank Public Company Limited and transfer of non-performing assets to Sukhumvit Asset Management Company Limited SCIB entered into a business transfer agreement with Bangkok Metropolitan Bank Plc. (“BMB”), effective from 1 April 2002, and transferred its assets and those of BMB to Petchburi Asset Management Co., Ltd. (“PAM”), before they were transferred to Sukhumvit Asset Management Co., Ltd. (“SAM”). Subsequently, SCIB transferred its entire business, including commitments and agreements with PAM and SAM, to Thanachart Bank, effective from 1 October 2011. Thanachart Bank thus has commitments as a result of such transfer. However, the commitments of FIDF to SCIB have been transferred to/assumed by Thanachart Bank as the purchaser of SCIB’s shares from the Financial Institutions Development Fund (“FIDF”). As at 31 December 2017, outstanding obligations are summarised below. a)

There was an outstanding difference of Baht 2 million, as a result of the transfer of assets to SAM. This comprised receivables awaiting collection and the difference is presented under other assets in the statements of financial position. The remaining relates to transfers of guarantee claims, for which there are pending issues with regard to proof of rights of claim or the qualification of the assets transferred under the conditions set out in the transfer agreements. Such differences, for which full allowance for doubtful debts has been set aside, are now being examined and/or negotiated among Thanachart Bank, SAM and the FIDF for final resolution.

b)

SAM is re-examining certain previously transferred assets (both of SCIB and BMB) in order to determine whether to transfer the assets back, to request price adjustments or to request settlement together with interest. The major pending issue relates to the proof of rights of claim over these assets. As at 31 December 2017, the transferred assets which SAM is re-examining totaling Baht 29 million of transactions incurred by BMB. If losses arise, Thanachart Bank will receive compensation for those from FIDF and any adjusting transactions will be within the limit of the funds set aside by FIDF to compensate losses in such cases, amounting to approximately Baht 29 million.

c)

Lawsuits in which SCIB is involved as a result of the transfer of business from BMB amounting to Baht 452 million, as disclosed under contingent liabilities in Note 45 to the financial statements.


265

THANACHART BANK PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED

d)

Outstanding letters of guarantee

The FIDF deposited an amount equal to the loss compensation limit with Thanachart Bank in FIDF’s account. This deposit account is to compensate for losses incurred as a result of the transfer of business from BMB, if actual losses are incurred due to the outstanding issues described in a), b), c) and d) above. As at 31 December 2017, the deposit account of the FIDF with Thanachart Bank to fund the payment of compensation for losses has an outstanding balance of approximately Baht 407 million. However, Thanachart Bank and SAM had a meeting and mutually agreed a resolution to such pending issues. Thanachart Bank believes that no significant further loss will be incurred, other than losses for which it has already set aside full allowance for doubtful debts and/or amount that will be compensated by FIDF. 45.

Contingent liabilities/Litigation a)

As at 31 December 2017, the Bank and its subsidiaries have contingent liabilities amounting to approximately Baht 2,669 million (separate financial statements: Baht 2,530 million) in respect of litigation. However, the Bank and its subsidiaries’ management have already made certain provisions for contingent losses, and for the remaining portion the management believes that no loss will result and therefore no liabilities are currently recorded. Part of the contingent liabilities for litigation mentioned above, amounting to Baht 452 million, relates to lawsuits involving the Bank as a result of the transfer of business from BMB to SCIB, and the Bank is entitled to compensation for actual losses incurred if such losses are in accordance with the conditions agreed with the FIDF.

b)

Furthermore, an organisation supervised by a government agency requested that the Bank pay compensation amounting to Baht 2,100 million, plus interest at 7.5 percent per annum. However, the management of the Bank is confident that no losses will be incurred.

46.

Letter of guarantees As at 31 December 2017, the Bank and its subsidiaries had letter of guarantees issued by banks on behalf of the Bank and its subsidiaries, amounting approximately Baht 29 million, placed for electricity usage of the branches (separate financial statements: Baht 29 million).

Financial instruments Financial instruments are any contracts which give rise to both a financial assets of one enterprise and a financial liability or equity instruments of another enterprise.

47.1 Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that the party to a financial instrument will fail to fulfill an obligation, causing the Bank and its subsidiaries to incur a financial loss. The amount of maximum credit risk exposure is the carrying amount of the financial assets less provision for losses as stated in the statements of financial position and the risk of commitments from avals, guarantees of loans, other guarantees and derivative contracts. In addition, the Bank and its subsidiaries manage credit risk by the means of careful consideration of credit approval process, analysis of risk factors and the ability to service debt of customers, and a credit review process, which examines and reviews the quality of the loan portfolio so as to prevent and provide a remedy for problem loans in the future. 47.2 Market risk Market risk is the risk that changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and securities prices may have an effect on the Bank and its subsidiaries’ foreign currency position and investment status. As such, market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and equity/commodity position risk. a)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Bank and its subsidiaries manage the changes in interest rate risk by means of an appropriate structuring of holdings in assets and liabilities with different repricing dates, taking into account the direction of market interest rates, in order to generate a suitable yield while maintaining risk at acceptable levels. Such management is under the supervision of the Asset and Liabilities Management Committee.
