SUMMARY

The year 2019 was a year of consolidation for Banque Audi (Suisse)

SA (the “Bank”), particularly in the face of continuing political and

economic uncertainty in Lebanon. Despite such constraints, the

Bank was able to achieve a net profit for the year of CHF 28.5

million, which is comparable to 2018. Operating income for 2019

amounted to CHF 79.7 million, relatively stable compared to CHF

77.2 million in 2018. In an environment of increased regulation

and control, and resulting cost increases, operating expenses

remain stable and well-controlled at CHF 39.1 million, a mere

increase of 2.6% year-on-year. The Bank’s cost to income ratio

therefore remained stable at 49.1%, a level which continues to be

superior to comparable Swiss banks.

Total Balance Sheet assets of the Bank remained stable at CHF

1.69 billion versus CHF 1.68 billion at the end of 2018.

BALANCE SHEET

Despite a relative stable total Balance Sheet level year-on-year

at CHF 1.69 billion, the composition of the Balance Sheet has

changed, as the Bank has adapted its commercial and risk

management approach to the global operating conditions. In

particular, the Lombard loan portfolio decreased by CHF 35.8

million to CHF 759.5 million, as the Bank sought to improve the

quality of pledged collateral by reducing loan-to-value rates on

certain assets classes/countries, resulting in the reduction and/

or reimbursement of certain loans, with reduced risk-weighted

assets and no impairments. This reduction in the Lombard loan

portfolio, coupled with the non-renewal at maturity of CHF 95

million of bonds in the Bank’s financial investment portfolio, and

an increase in CHF 31.9 million increase year-on-year in customer

deposits, generated additional liquidity for the Bank as evidenced

by the increase in the amounts deposited at the Swiss National

Bank to CHF 487.6 million as at the end of 2019, and the strong

level of the Bank’s Liquidity Coverage Ratio at 420%.

From an Assets under Management (“AUM”) perspective, the Bank

posted total AUMs of CHF 6.9 billion, an increase of 7.5% year-on-

year, principally due to net new money of CHF 285 million during

the year. This underlines the Bank’s strength in asset gathering and

client servicing, despite challenging market conditions.

INCOME STATEMENT

Results from interest operations increased by CHF 4.0 million to

CHF 28.7 million, principally due the Bank’s treasury operations, as

the Lombard loan portfolio was de-risked as mentioned above.

Commission business and services income remained stable at

CHF 37.6 million versus CHF 39.8 million at the Bank, despite an

increase in commission expenses during the year, principally due to

retrocessions paid to client-referring intermediaries.

Results from trading activities amounted to CHF 13.3 million in

2019 compared to CHF 12.5 million. This income is primarily

driven by customer foreign exchange activity, as no proprietary

foreign exchange trading, outside of hedging foreign exchange risk

inherent in the Bank’s operations, is being undertaken by the Bank.

Operating expenses increased marginally year-on-year to CHF 39.1

million, as the Bank continues to strengthen its personnel, through

selective hires to replace/upgrade employees holding key positions.

ALLOCATION OF RETAINED EARNINGS

It is proposed to pay the 2019 net profit of CHF 28.5 million as an

ordinary dividend, payable before 30 September 2020.

At year-end 2019, after the allocation of retained earnings,

shareholders equity amounts to CHF 169.4 million (Net Tier

I capital), with a Tier I capital ratio of 48.69%. This compares

favorably to the 2018 Tier I ratio of 43.2%, due to the Bank’s

efforts in 2019 to de-risk its balance sheet. As at 31 December

2019, the Bank continues to be well-capitalized with a combined

Tier I and Tier II capital of CHF 173.2 million.

NEW FINMA REGIME FOR CATEGORY 4 AND 5 BANKS

In 2018, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA

defined a new regime for category 4 and 5 banks which have a

relatively high level of capital and liquidity. Banks were required to

announce to FINMA their intention to participate in this new regime

before end of January 2020. Although the Bank, as a category 4

bank, participated in the “pilot” phase of this new regime, the

Board of Directors and the Executive Management of the Bank

decided ultimately not to participate at this time, principally due

to certain disadvantageous changes in the capital adequacy rules

under Basle III. The Bank remains open to reconsidering its position,

should the situation become more favourable.

the requirements of the Swiss Civil Code, the Swiss law on banks

and related ordinance and the directives of the Swiss Financial

Markets Supervisory Authority (FINMA), as defined by circular

FINMA 2015/1 (PCB).

Accounting Recognition of TransactionsAll transactions made until the balance sheet date are booked

the day they are executed. Non-executed spot transactions are

included in the balance sheet on transaction date.

Foreign Currency and Precious Metal BalancesThe financial statements are presented in Swiss francs. Foreign

currency and precious metal balances are translated into their

and expense amounts denominated in foreign currencies are

converted to Swiss francs at the end of each month.

The rates applied at 31 December 2019 for the conversion of the

main currencies into Swiss francs are the following:

USD 0.96840 (2018 : 0.98070)

EUR 1.08499 (2018 : 1.12290)

Forward Foreign Exchange Transactions and Derivative Financial Instruments

Trading Transactions

Outstanding forward foreign exchange transactions and derivative

financial instruments, comprising currency and securities options,

are expressed at prevailing market rates in the financial statements.

The variation in positive and negative replacement values resulting

from this treatment are included in results from trading activities in

the income statement.

The contract volumes as presented correspond to the values of the

underlying currencies and securities from which the instruments

are derived.

Hedging Transactions

Hedging transactions are reported using the same valuation

principles as the transactions that they are serving to hedge and

are included under the same accounting captions. The continuing

validity of the accounting treatment of hedging transaction

is reviewed periodically. Transactions that can no longer be

considered as valid hedges are treated as trading transactions.

Liquid Assets and Amounts Due from & to Banks and CustomersLiquid assets and amounts due from and to banks and customers

are reported in the balance sheet at their nominal value.

Impaired customer loans are subject to individual provisions

which are recorded as a deduction from the amount due.

Securities and Precious Metal Trading PortfoliosSecurities held as trading items and securities held as available

sheet date. The financing cost of the securities portfolio is not

included in the same income statement caption.

Financial InvestmentsInterest bearing financial investments that are intended to be held

to maturity are included in the balance sheet at cost adjusted on

pro-rata basis to accrue to their value at maturity. In event of the

risk of non-repayment at maturity a specific provision is made

and deducted from the reported value.

Tangible Fixed AssetsTangible fixed assets are reported in the balance sheet at cost and

are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a

straight line basis.

Owned operating premises are reported in the balance sheet at

a maximum of their acquisition cost, less depreciation deemed to

be economically necessary, on a straight line basis.

The useful lives of the different categories used for depreciation

purposes are:

- Information technology hardware and purchased software : 3 years

- Office furniture and equipment: 5 years

- Installations and office improvements: 5 years

- Motor vehicles: 5 years

- Owned premises: 50 years

ProvisionThe principle of prudence is applied in recognizing adequate value

adjustments and provisions in all situations that involve a degree

of uncertainty as to the appreciation or evaluation of the risk.

Value AdjustmentsThe credit policy of the Bank is to lend to customers on a fully

secured basis with collateral of quality, duly weighted. Impairment

of collateral is the primary reason for which loan recovery may

become doubtful. A value adjustment is made against each specific

impaired loan and is the difference between the nominal value

of the loan and the estimated recoverable amount taking into

account the estimated realisable value of the collateral. Provisions

are made for interest remaining due for more than three months.

TaxesIncome and capital tax are provided for on all taxable items,

including those in respect of which payment is deferred. The

provisions are included in accrued expenses.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT

The risk management policies of the Bank are embodied in the

internal directives approved by the Board of Directors. These

directives set out the scope of the activities, their nature and the

levels of authority delegated to management.

The directives are accompanied by operating procedures that are

developed by the departments concerned.

Monitoring of compliance with the directives is performed by the

internal control function of the Bank.

Market RiskMarket risk management policy is defined in the directives on

foreign exchange and securities trading. The requirements and

limits include those relating to:

· Approved instruments

· Individual and overall positions

· Transaction limits

· Loss limits

With regard to foreign exchange activities, trading for the Banks’

own account is minimal, the principal role being that of serving

the customer base and covering customer transactions in the

inter-bank market. Positions in foreign exchange or securities

options are generally not taken other than for hedging revenues

denominated in foreign currencies.

Interest Rate RiskThe directive on interest rate risk defines the authorized instruments

and limits. The directive reflects the Bank’s policy of low interest

rate risk in view of the short maturities inherent in underlying

customer transactions and the hedging of such transactions.

Credit RiskThe policy and rules on credit risk are set out in the directive on

credit activities. Credit activity is limited to secured lending and

exceptionally to mortgage loans. The value of portfolios pledged

are established by reference to a loan-to-value rate defined by asset

class. The value of assets included in portfolios pledged by clients

are regularly reappraised. Exposures are subject to daily monitoring

by the Credit Department and approvals for over-limit situations

are submitted to the authority levels stipulated in the directive.

Country RiskManagement of exposure to country risk including limits is set

out in an internal directive. Country risk is principally generated

by the Bank’s investment portfolio and guarantees provided by

customers to whom the Bank lends and is subject to verification

on a regular basis.

Reputational and Compliance RiskThese risks arise from the absence of compliance with professional

standards and legal requirements. The compliance function performs

the tasks conferred to it in a chart of compliance that is approved

by the Board of Directors.

Operational RiskOperational risks are those that arise in the event of erroneous

or omitted execution of a transaction or more generally from a

procedural or technological weakness. These weaknesses result

in one of the risks set out above. The operational risks are covered

by written departmental procedures.

Risk Analysis by the Board of DirectorsThe Board of Directors has defined the principal objectives of

risk management of the Bank by performing an inventory of

identified risks and an evaluation of the probability of occurrence

and its consequences, thus enabling the effective allocation of

the Bank’s resources.

Capital AdequacyThe Bank’s capital adequacy report is available on its website

bankaudipb.com in compliance with FINMA Circular 2016/01.

plans are financed by both the employer and the employees in accordance with the regulations of the plans.

On 1 January 2019, AXA transferred the 100% insured pension fund to a new partially insured plan. At 31 december 2019, the

unaudited coverage rate is 112.5%, which means that there is no underfunding at this date.
