1. Background
Organization and operations
These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of OJSC IC Allianz (the Company) and its
subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries together are referred to as the Group.
The Open Joint-Stock Company Insurance Company “Allianz” was registered in the Russian Federation in 1992. In
December 2011 the Company changed its name to OJSC IC Allianz from OJSC IC “Rosno”. The principal activity
of Allianz and its subsidiaries is the provision of insurance. The Group operates under insurance and reinsurance
license №0290 dated 10 November 2014 issued by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.
In accordance with the new strategy adopted in 2014, the Group stopped writing retail insurance business, such as
auto-transport and other private property and liability insurance, and focused on corporate insurance business, such
as medical, property and casualty insurance and reinsurance. The insurance license in obligatory motor third party
liability insurance was restricted in 2015 and the Company was not allowed to write new obligatory motor third
party liability business up until 15 January 2016, when the license was renewed.
In November 2015, the management committed to a plan to sell voluntary medical insurance business of the
Company to Allianz Life Insurance Company, Ltd., an entity under common shareholders’ control, following a
strategic decision to place greater focus on the Group’s key competencies (note 30).
Insurance business written by the Group includes medical, property, casualty, life insurance and reinsurance. The
Group has also contracted with the Government Fund for Obligatory Medical Insurance (GFOMI), which carries out
an obligatory medical insurance program to provide Russian Federation citizens with free of charge medical services
via certain appointed insurers, including the Group. The Group has contracted with GFOMI to administer a portion
of this program and receives commissions for providing this service.
As at 31 December 2015, the Company has 5 branches (2014: 75 branches) within the Russian Federation and its
subsidiaries have 42 branches (2014: 125 branches).
The Company is registered at the following address: Russia, 115184, Moscow, Ozerkovskaya Naberezhnaya, 30.
As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the Company is 100% ultimately owned and controlled by Allianz SE, a
worldwide insurance company, which has publicly available financial statements. A list of principal consolidated
subsidiaries and associates is disclosed in note 29.
Business environment
The Group’s operations are located primarily in the Russian Federation. Consequently, the Group is exposed to the
economic and financial markets of the Russian Federation which display characteristics of an emerging market. The
legal, tax and regulatory frameworks continue development, but are subject to varying interpretations and frequent
changes which together with other legal and fiscal impediments contribute to the challenges faced by entities
operating in the Russian Federation.
The conflict in Ukraine and related events has increased the perceived risks of doing business in the Russian
Federation. The imposition of economic sanctions on Russian individuals and legal entities by the European Union,
the United States of America, Japan, Canada, Australia and others, as well as retaliatory sanctions imposed by the
Russian government, has resulted in increased economic uncertainty including more volatile equity markets, a
depreciation of the Russian Rouble, a reduction in both local and foreign direct investment inflows and a significant
tightening in the availability of credit. In particular, some Russian entities may be experiencing difficulties in
accessing international equity and debt markets and may become increasingly dependent on Russian state banks to
finance their operations. The longer term effects of recently implemented sanctions, as well as the threat of
additional future sanctions, are difficult to determine. Management of the Group believes that it takes all the
necessary efforts to support the economic stability of the Group in the current environment.
The consolidated financial statements reflect management’s assessment of the impact of the Russian business
environment on the operations and the financial position of the Group. The future business environment may differ
from management’s assessment.

2. Basis of Preparation
Basis of Preparation. These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
The Group maintains its accounting records in accordance with Russian insurance and accounting regulations. These
consolidated financial statements have been prepared from those accounting records and adjusted as necessary in order
to be in accordance with IFRS. These adjustments include certain reclassifications to reflect the economic substance of
underlying transactions including reclassifications of certain assets and liabilities, income and expenses to appropriate
financial statements captions.
Basis of measurement. These consolidated financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except that
available-for-sale financial instruments are stated at fair value.
Going concern basis of accounting. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which assumes that the Group will be able to meet its obligations. Management has a reasonable expectation that
the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Group has a plan
for achieving self-sustainability through capital generation and optimization of product structure and business strategy,
therefore, management believes that there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ability of the Group to continue as
a going concern.
Presentation currency. These consolidated financial statements are presented in Russian Roubles (RUB). Financial
information presented in RUB is rounded to the nearest thousand.
Use of estimates. Management makes a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in
conformity with IFRS. Actual results could differ from these estimates. In particular, information about significant areas of
estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies are described in the following notes:
loss provision estimate - note 12
impairment allowance for insurance and reinsurance receivables estimate - note 7
tax loss carry forward recoverability - note 23.
3. Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies set out below are applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial
statements, and are applied consistently by Group’s entities.
Subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are investees controlled by the Group. The Group controls an investee when it is exposed
to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power over the investee. In particular the Group consolidates investees that it controls on the basis of de
facto circumstances. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements
from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. The assets and liabilities
and contingent liabilities of a subsidiary are measured at their fair values at the date of acquisition, plus costs
directly attributable to the acquisition. The Group measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration
transferred (including the fair value of any previously-held equity interest in the acquiree) and the recognized
amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, less the net recognized amount (generally fair value) of the
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured as at the acquisition date. When the excess is
negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognized immediately in profit or loss. Intercompany transactions, balances
and unrealized gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated; unrealized losses are also eliminated
unless cost cannot be recovered. Where necessary, accounting policies of subsidiaries are changed to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests is that part of the net results and of the net assets of a subsidiary attributable to interests
which are not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Group. Non-controlling interests are recorded within equity.

In translating the financial statements of a foreign operation into the Group’s presentation currency for incorporation
in the consolidated financial statements, the Group applies IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange
Rates as follows:
assets and liabilities, both monetary and non-monetary, of the foreign operation are translated into the Group’s
presentation currency at the closing exchange rate of the Central Bank of Russian Federation;
income and expense items of the foreign operation are translated into the Group’s presentation currency at
exchange rates of the Central Bank of Russian Federation at the approximate dates of the transactions;
all resulting exchange differences are classified within equity as foreign exchange translation reserve until the
disposal of the investment;
on disposal of the investment in the foreign operation, the foreign exchange translation reserve is transferred to
profit or loss.
Associates. Associates (note 29) are entities over which the Group has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or
over which the Group has an ability to exercise significant influence, but which it does not control. Investments in
associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Group’s share of the post-
acquisition profits or losses of associates is recognized in profit or loss, and its share of the post-acquisition other
comprehensive income is recorded in other comprehensive income. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are
adjusted against the cost of the investment. Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are
eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates; unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the
transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does not
recognize further losses unless the Group has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. Where
necessary, accounting policies used by associates have been changed to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by
the Group.
Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the
identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquired subsidiary or associate at the date of acquisition.
After control of an entity is obtained, changes in the parent’s ownership interest that do not result in a loss of control
are accounted for as equity transactions. Profit or loss is not recognized as a result of such transactions, and carrying
amount of goodwill does not change.
At each reporting date the Group estimates the recoverable amount of goodwill. A write down is made if the carrying
amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
On acquisition, fair values of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are determined
provisionally. Adjustments to those provisional values are recognized within twelve months of the acquisition date.
Merger of entities or businesses under common control. A merger of entities or businesses under common control
is a merger in which all of the combining entities or businesses ultimately are controlled by the same party or parties
both before and after the combination, and that control is not transitory. Assets and liabilities of the merger of
businesses under common control are recognized in the consolidated financial statements as of the date of the
merger using book value (carry-over basis) accounting. Comparative financial information is not restated.
Discontinued operations. A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business, the operations and cash
flows of which can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the Group and which:
represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;
is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of
operations; or
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be
classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative
statement of comprehensive income is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the
comparative period.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to be
recovered principally through a sale transaction and a sale is considered highly probable. They are stated at the
lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.

Recognition of financial instruments. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets and liabilities are
recognized using trade date accounting.
Management determines the appropriate classification of financial instruments upon initial recognition. Financial assets
and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset or financial liability not at fair
value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to acquisition or issue of the financial asset or
financial liability. The accounting policies for subsequent measurement of these items are set out below.
Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are items, which can be converted into cash within one business
day and includes cash on hand and in banks and has no restrictions on its availability. All short-term bank placements
are included in deposits with banks.
Deposits with banks, promissory notes and originated loans. Deposits with banks, promissory notes and originated
loans are loans originated by the Group by providing money directly to the counterparties. All deposits with banks,
promissory notes and originated loans are recorded when cash is advanced to counterparties. Initially they are recorded at
fair value, and subsequently are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method, less allowance for impairment.
Interest income on deposits with banks, promissory notes and originated loans is recognized in profit or loss as
interest income using the effective interest rate method.
Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets and liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss represent securities acquired principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term, or are
a part of portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of a
recent and actual pattern of short-term profit taking or securities that upon initial recognition are designated by the
Group at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are
initially recorded and subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in fair value of financial assets and liabilities at
fair value through profit or loss are recognized in profit or loss.
Available-for-sale financial instruments. This classification includes non-derivative financial assets that are
designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial
instruments at fair value through profit or loss which management intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, that
may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or market quotes.
Available-for-sale financial instruments are initially recorded and subsequently measured at fair value. Unrealized
gains and losses arising subsequent to initial recognition are recognized as other comprehensive income (except for
impairment losses and foreign exchange gains and losses) until the asset is derecognized at which time the
cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss.
Coupon and interest earned on available-for-sale financial instruments are recognized in profit or loss within interest
income using the effective interest rate method. Dividends received are reflected in profit or loss within other
investment income.
Derecognition of financial instruments. A financial asset is derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash
flows from the financial asset expire or when the Group transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards of
ownership of the financial asset. Any rights or obligations created or retained in the transfer are recognized
separately as assets or liabilities. The Group derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are
discharged or cancelled or expire.
Receivables and prepayments. Receivables are accounted for on the accrual basis. Receivables consist of
outstanding direct premiums due from policyholders, outstanding assumed premiums due from ceding companies,
receivables due from claims ceded and other receivables, carried at cost less allowance for impairment.
Prepayments are recorded on the payment date and are charged to profit or loss when the services are provided.
Prepayments include prepayments made under obligatory and voluntary medical insurance programs and other
prepayments.
Offsetting. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of
financial position only when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, and there is an
intention to either settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Fair value measurement principles. 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 in the principal, or in its
absence, the most advantageous market to which the Group has access at that date. The fair value of a liability
reflects its non-performance risk.
When available, the Group measures the fair value of an instrument using quoted prices in an active market for that
instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient
frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

When there is no quoted price in an active market, the Group uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of
relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The chosen valuation technique
incorporates all the factors that market participants would take into account in these circumstances.
The best evidence of the fair value of a financial instrument at initial recognition is normally the transaction price,
i.e., the fair value of the consideration given or received. If the Group determines that the fair value at initial
recognition differs from the transaction price and the fair value is evidenced neither by a quoted price in an active
market for an identical asset or liability nor based on a valuation technique that uses only data from observable
markets, the financial instrument is initially measured at fair value, adjusted to defer the difference between the fair
value at initial recognition and the transaction price. Subsequently, that difference is recognised in profit or loss on
an appropriate basis over the life of the instrument, but no later than when the valuation is supported wholly by
observable market data or the transaction is closed out.
Impairment
Available-for-sale financial instruments. An available-for-sale debt security is impaired if there is objective
evidence that a loss event has occurred, which has impaired the expected cash flows, i.e. all amounts due according to
the contractual terms of the security are not considered collectible. Typically, this is due to deterioration in the
creditworthiness of the issuer. A decline in fair value below amortized cost due to changes in risk free interest rates
does not by itself represent objective evidence of a loss event.
If there is objective evidence that the cost may not be recovered, an available-for-sale equity security is considered
impaired. Objective evidence that the cost may not be recovered, in addition to qualitative impairment criteria, includes
a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below cost. The Group’s policy considers decline to be significant
when the fair value is below the weighted average cost by more than 20% or when the fair value is below the weighted
average cost for more than nine months.
If an available-for-sale equity security is impaired based upon the qualitative or quantitative impairment criteria, any
further declines in the fair value at subsequent reporting dates are recognized as impairment. Therefore, at each reporting
period, for an equity security that is determined to be impaired based upon the impairment criteria, an impairment is
recognized for the difference between the fair value and the original cost basis, less any previously recognized impairment.
If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale debt security increases and the increase can
be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the impairment
loss is reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognized in profit or loss. However, any subsequent recovery in the
fair value of an impaired available-for-sale equity security is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets carried at amortized cost. Financial assets carried at amortized cost consist principally of
promissory notes and originated loans (“loans”).The Group reviews its loans, to assess impairment on a regular
basis. A loan is impaired and impairment losses are incurred if, and only if, there is objective evidence of
impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the loan and that event (or
events) has had an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the loan that can be reliably estimated.
The Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for loans that are individually
significant, and individually or collectively for loans that are not individually significant. If the Group determines
that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed loan, it includes the loan in a group of
loans with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. Loans that are
individually assessed for impairment and for which an impairment loss is or continues to be recognized are not
included in a collective assessment of impairment.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on a loan has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured
as the difference between the carrying amount of the loan and the present value of estimated future cash flows
including amounts recoverable from guarantees and collateral discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate.
Contractual cash flows and historical loss experience adjusted on the basis of relevant observable data that reflect
current economic conditions provide the basis for estimating expected cash flows.
In some cases, the observable data required to estimate the amount of an impairment loss on a loan may be limited
or no longer fully relevant to current circumstances. This may be the case when a borrower is in financial difficulties
and there is little available historical data relating to similar borrowers. In such cases, the Group uses its experience
and judgment to estimate the amount of any impairment loss.
All impairment losses in respect of loans are recognized in profit or loss and are only reversed if a subsequent increase
in recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized.

Financial assets carried at cost. Financial assets carried at cost include receivables and prepayments. If there is
objective evidence of impairment, the impairment loss is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount
and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar
financial asset. All impairment losses in respect of these assets are recognized in profit or loss.
Non-financial assets. Other non-financial assets, except for deferred taxes, are assessed at each reporting date for any
indications of impairment. The recoverable amount of non-financial assets is the greater of their fair value less costs to
sell and their value in use. 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. For an asset that does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. An impairment loss is
recognized when the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount.
All impairment losses in respect of non-financial assets are recognized in profit or loss and reversed only if there has
been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Any impairment loss reversed is only
reversed to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
Accrued interest income and expenses. Accrued interest income and expenses, including both accrued coupon and
amortized discount, are included in the carrying values of the related asset and liability in the consolidated statement of
financial position.
Property and equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost, restated to the equivalent purchasing power of
the Russian Rouble as at 31 December 2002 for assets acquired prior to 1 January 2003, less accumulated depreciation
and allowance for impairment, where required.
Construction in progress is carried at cost. Upon completion, assets are transferred to property, plant and equipment
at their carrying amount. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the asset is available for use.
Result on disposal of property and equipment is determined by reference to carrying amount and is recognized as
profit or loss for the reporting period. Repairs and maintenance are recognized as expense in the period in which
they are incurred.
Depreciation. Depreciation is applied on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the
following rates:
2015 2014
Premises 2.5% per annum 2.5% per annum
Office equipment 20% per annum 20% per annum
Computer equipment 33% per annum 33% per annum
Intangible assets. Intangible assets represent software licenses obtained by the Group and computer software
development costs. Costs associated with maintaining computer software are recorded as an expense as incurred.
Costs that are directly associated with identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group and that
will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognized as intangible assets.
Expenditure, which enhances or extends the performance of computer software beyond their original specifications
is recorded as a capital improvement and added to the original cost of the software. Computer software development
costs recorded as assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their useful lives, not exceeding a period
of 5 years.
At each reporting date the Group assesses whether there is any indication of impairment of intangible assets. If any
such indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount, which is determined as the higher of an asset’s
net selling price or its value in use. Where the carrying amount of an asset is greater than its estimated recoverable
amount, it is written down to its recoverable amount and the difference is charged to profit or loss. An impairment
loss recognized for an asset in prior periods is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine
the assets recoverable amount.
Investment property. Investment property is property held by the Group to earn rental income and for capital
appreciation rather than for use in the supply of services or for administrative purposes in the ordinary course of
business. Investment property is measured at cost (which includes transaction costs).
Earned rental income is recorded in profit or loss within other investment income. Direct operating expenses
(including repairs and maintenance) arising from investment property are recorded as incurred within investment
operating expenses in profit or loss.

Borrowings. Borrowings are financial liabilities of the Group, where the contractual arrangement results in an obligation
either to deliver cash or another financial asset to the creditor, or to otherwise settle an obligation. After initial recognition,
borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are
recognized in profit or loss when borrowings are derecognized as well as through the amortization process.
Share capital. Contributions to share capital, made before 1 January 2003 are recognized at their cost restated for
inflation. Contributions to share capital made after 1 January 2003 are recognized at cost.
Treasury shares. Where the Company or its subsidiaries purchase the Company’s equity share capital, the
consideration paid including any attributable incremental external costs net of income taxes is deducted from total
equity as treasury shares until they are cancelled or disposed of. Where such shares are subsequently disposed or
reissued, any consideration received is included in equity.
Share premium. Share premium represents the excess of consideration over the nominal value of the shares issued.
Classification of insurance contracts. Contracts under which the Group accepts significant insurance risk from
another party (the policyholder) by agreeing to compensate the policyholder or other beneficiary if a specified uncertain
future event (the insured event) adversely affects the policyholder or other beneficiary are classified as insurance
contracts. Insurance risk is a risk other than financial.
Financial risk is the risk of a possible future change in one or more of a specified interest rate, security price,
commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices or rates, a credit rating or credit index or other variable,
provided in the case of a non-financial variable that the variable is not specific to a party to the contract. Insurance
contracts may also transfer some financial risk. Insurance risk is significant if, and only if, an insured event could
cause the Group to pay significant claims. Once a contract is classified as an insurance contract, it remains classified
as an insurance contract until all rights and obligations are extinguished or expire. Contracts under which the
transfer of insurance risk to the Group from the policyholder is not significant are classified as financial instruments.
Non-life insurance operations
Premiums written. Upon inception of a contract, premiums are recognized when written and are earned primarily on a
pro-rata basis over the term of the related policy coverage. Premiums are disclosed gross of commission payable to
intermediaries and taxes and levies based on premiums. Premiums written include adjustments to estimates of
premiums written in previous years. The earned portion of premiums written is recognized as revenue. Premiums are
earned from the date of attachment of risk, over the indemnity period, based on the pattern of risks underwritten.
Outward reinsurance premiums are recognized as an expense in accordance with the pattern of reinsurance service
provided. The portion of outward reinsurance premiums not recognized as an expense is treated as a prepayment.
Provision for unearned premiums. Provision for unearned premiums represents the proportion of premiums written in the
period that relates to unexpired terms of policies in force at the reporting date, calculated on a time apportionment basis.
Claims paid. Claims paid including claims handling expenses are charged to profit or loss as incurred.
Loss provision. Loss provision represents outstanding claims provision (OCP), provision for losses incurred but not
yet reported (IBNR) and estimates of claims handling expenses (loss adjustment expenses reserve). OCP is provided in
respect of claims reported, but not settled as at the reporting date. The estimation is made on the basis of information
received by the Group during investigation of insurance cases after the reporting date less regresses. IBNR is
actuarially determined by the Group by line of business, and includes assumptions based on prior years’ claims. The
methods of determining such estimates and establishing the resulting provisions are continually reviewed and updated.
Resulting adjustments are recognized as profit or loss as they arise. The loss provision is estimated on an undiscounted
basis due to the relatively quick pattern of claims notification and payment.
Liability adequacy test. At each reporting date, liability adequacy tests are performed to ensure the adequacy of the
insurance contract provisions net of deferred acquisition costs (DAC). In performing this test, current best estimates of
future contractual cash flows and claims handling and administration expenses are used. When unearned premiums are
insufficient to meet claims and expenses, which may be incurred after the reporting date the additional liability –
unexpired risk reserve (URR) is recognized. To estimate the URR the Group uses historical experience and forward
looking assumptions of ultimate loss ratios (including claims handling expenses) and the level of in-force portfolio
maintenance expenses. URR is provided for unexpired risks arising from general insurance contracts where the
expected value of claims and expenses attributable to the unexpired periods of contracts in force at the reporting date
exceeds the provision for unearned premiums in relation to such contracts after the deduction of any deferred
acquisition costs. URR is calculated by reference to individual line of business that are managed together.
The expected claims are calculated with regard to events that have occurred prior to the reporting date. Any changes in
URR are immediately charged to profit or loss initially by writing off DAC and by subsequent establishing a provision
for losses arising from liability adequacy tests.

Life insurance operations
Premiums written. Premiums from traditional life insurance are recognized as revenue when due from the
policyholder. Certain universal life contracts contain a discretionary participation feature (DPF) that entitles the
policyholders to a minimum guaranteed interest rate per annum (from 2.5 to 4% p.a. depending on product type) or,
when higher, a bonus rate declared by the Group from the DPF eligible surplus available (i.e. all interest and realized
gains and losses arising from the assets backing these contracts). Any portion of the DPF eligible surplus that is not
declared as a bonus rate and/or interest rate to individual contract holders is retained as a liability for the benefit of all
policyholders until declared and credited to them individually in future periods. Discretionary participation features
are included within the future policies benefits reserve.
Claims paid. Claims paid including claims handling expenses are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Future policies benefits reserve. The future polices benefits reserve is actuarially determined. The reserve is
calculated using the net premiums method on a policy-by-policy basis. The assumptions underlying the future polices
benefits reserve are based on the combination of historical experience, the best estimates of the future evolution of the
main valuation parameters and provision for adverse deviation (PAD). The key valuation assumptions are as follows:
discount rate or actual investment return (in terms of USD) – 3% (2014: 5%); premium collection expense – 1.7% of
premium (2014: 1.7%); maintenance expenses – USD 10 p.a. (2014: USD 10 p.a.) per policy.
Reinsurance. The Group assumes and cedes reinsurance in the normal course of business. Ceded reinsurance contracts
do not relieve the Group from its obligations to policyholders. Reinsurance assets include balances due from
reinsurance companies for paid claims, including claims handling expenses, and premiums ceded to the Group.
Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the claim liability associated with the
reinsured policy. Reinsurance payables are obligations of the Group for the transfer of reinsurance premiums to
reinsurers and of the Group’s share in claims in respect of insurance cases reinsured by the Group. Reinsurance
receivables and payables are offset where the legal right for such offset exists.
Deferred acquisition costs. Acquisition costs, representing commissions, salaries and certain other underwriting
expenses, which vary with and are incurred in connection with the acquisition or renewal of insurance policies, are
deferred and amortized over the period in which the related written premiums are earned. Deferred acquisition costs are
calculated separately for each line of business and are reviewed by line of business at the time of the policy issue and at
the end of each reporting period to ensure they are recoverable based on future estimates.
Payables. All payables are accounted for on the accruals basis.
Obligatory medical insurance. The Government Fund for Obligatory Medical Insurance (FOMI) carries out an
obligatory medical insurance program to provide Russian Federation citizens with free of charge medical services
via certain appointed insurers, including the Group, which has contracted with FOMI to administer a portion of this
program.
The Group receives advances from FOMI and makes payments to medical centers for services provided by these
centers under the FOMI program. Funds received from FOMI by the Group, which are not paid out for medical
services are retained within the Group, and treated as a liability for future medical expenses. The Group does not
assume any insurance risk under this program.
The Group receives a commission for performing this service. These commissions are recognized in profit or loss
within other activity result.
Taxation. Current taxation is provided for in accordance with Russian legislation currently in force. Income tax
comprises current tax and changes in deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that
it relates to items of other comprehensive income or transactions with shareholders recognized directly in equity, in
which case it is recognized within other comprehensive income or directly within equity. Current tax is calculated on
the basis of the taxable profit for the period, using the tax rates enacted during the reporting period. Taxes, other than
on income, are recorded within operating expenses.
Deferred income tax is provided, using the balance sheet method, for all temporary differences arising between the tax
basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured at tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is
settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are netted only within the individual companies of the Group, subject to any legal or regulatory
restrictions to such offsetting. A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable
profits will be available against which the temporary differences, unused tax losses and credits can be utilized. Deferred
tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Interest income and expenses, other income and expense recognition. Interest income and expense are recorded in
profit or loss for all interest bearing instruments on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. The effective
interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial asset or liability and of allocating the
interest income or expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts
estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a
shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability.
When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the
financial instrument but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees paid or received
between the parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other
premiums or discounts.
Other income is recognized in profit or loss when the related transactions are completed. Operating and other
expenses are generally recorded on an accrual basis when the product is received or the service is provided.
Portfolio and other management advisory and service fees are recorded based on the applicable service contracts.
Commission income. The Group receives commissions for ceding premiums to reinsurers. This type of commission is
recognized in profit or loss within the insurance activity section. Commission income from ceded reinsurance transactions
that represent the recovery of acquisition costs reduces the applicable unamortized acquisition costs in such a manner that
net acquisition costs are capitalized and charged to expenses in proportion to net revenue recognized. Amortization of
deferred commission income on reinsurance outwards is in profit or loss within net acquisition costs.
The Group also provides customers with non-insurance related services, on which the Group does not assume
insurance risk and earns commissions. These commissions are included in profit or loss within other activity result.
Asset management fees related to investment funds are recorded in profit or loss proportionally over the period the
service is provided.
Functional currency. Functional currency for each Group entity is determined as the currency of the primary
economic environment in which the entity operates. The Russian Rouble (RUB) is selected as the functional
currency for the Company and other Group entities domiciled in the Russian Federation. For Group entities
domiciled outside the Russian Federation the currencies of the respective countries in which these entities are
domiciled are selected as their functional currencies.
Foreign currency translation. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency of the
relevant Group entity at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The
foreign currency gain or loss on monetary assets or liabilities is the difference between amortized cost in the functional
currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for interest accrued using the effective interest rate and payments
during the period, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which are stated at historical cost, are translated
to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction
Foreign exchange differences arising on retranslation are recognized in profit or loss, except for differences arising on
the retranslation of available-for-sale equity instruments unless the difference is due to impairment in which case
foreign currency differences that have been recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
Operating leases. Where the Group is the lessee, the total lease payments, including those on expected termination, are
charged by the Group to the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
Provisions. Provisions are recorded when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past
events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation,
and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.
Staff costs and related contributions. The Group contributions to the Russian Federation state pension and social
insurance funds in respect of its employees are expensed as incurred and included into operating expenses and
acquisition costs.
Restructuring. A provision for restructuring is recognized when the Group has approved a detailed and formal
restructuring plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been announced publicly. Future operating
costs are not provided for.
Reclassifications. With effect from 31 December 2015, the Group presents other provisions charge outside other
activity result in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The Group previously
presented other provisions charge within other expenses from other activity result in the consolidated statement of
profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2014. Other provisions charge
included in other expenses in 2014 amounts to RUB 241 000 thousand.

New standards and interpretations that will come into effect in the next reporting periods. The following new standards,
amendments to standards and interpretations are not yet effective as at 31 December 2015, and are not applied in preparing
these consolidated financial statements. The Group plans to adopt these pronouncements when they become effective.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, published in July 2014, replaces International Financial Reporting Standard
IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 includes revised guidelines on the
classification and measurement of financial instruments, including a new expected credit loss model for
calculating impairment on financial assets, and the new general hedge accounting requirements. The Group
recognizes that the new standard introduces many changes to accounting for financial instruments and is likely
to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Group has not analyzed the impact of
these changes yet. The Group does not intend to adopt this standard early. The standard will be effective for
annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 and will be applied retrospectively with some exemptions.
Various Improvements to IFRS are dealt with on a standard-by-standard basis. All amendments, which result in
accounting changes for presentation, recognition or measurement purposes, will come into effect not earlier than
1 January 2016. The Group has not yet analysed the likely impact of the improvements on its consolidated
financial position or performance.

Assumptions and sensitivities used in estimating the loss provision
Process used to determine the assumptions. The assumptions used in the estimation of insurance assets and
liabilities are intended to result in provisions which are sufficient to cover any liabilities arising out of insurance
contracts so far as can reasonably be foreseen. However, given the uncertainty in establishing a provision for
outstanding claims, it is likely that the final outcome will prove to be different from the original liability established.
Provision at the reporting date represents the expected ultimate cost of settlement of all claims incurred in respect of
events up to that date, whether reported or not, together with related external claims handling expenses, less amounts
already paid. The loss provision is not discounted for the time value of money.
In calculating the estimated cost of unpaid claims (both reported or not), the Group estimation techniques are a
combination of loss-ratio-based estimates (where the loss ratio is defined as the ratio between the ultimate cost of
insurance claims and premiums earned in a particular reporting year in relation of such claims) and an estimate
based upon actual claims experience using predetermined formulae where greater weight is given to actual claims
experience as time passes.
The estimation of IBNR is generally subject to a greater degree of uncertainty than the estimation of the cost of
settling claims already notified to Group, where information about the claim event is available. IBNR claims may
not be apparent to the insured until many years after the event that gave rise to the claims has happened.
In estimating the loss provision the Group considers any information available from loss adjusters and information
on the cost of settling claims with similar characteristics in previous periods. Large claims are assessed on a case-
by-case basis or projected separately in order to allow for the possible distortive effect of their development and
incidence on the rest of the portfolio.
Where possible, the Group adopts multiple techniques to estimate the required level of provisions. This provides a
greater understanding of the trends inherent in the experience being projected. The projections given by the various
methodologies also assist in estimating the range of possible outcomes. The most appropriate estimation technique is
selected taking into account the characteristics of the business class and the extent of the development of each
accident year.
Assumptions. The initial loss-ratio estimate is the assumption that has the greatest effect on the measurement of the
loss reserves. The initial loss-ratio estimate is based on previous years’ experience, adjusted for factors such as
premium rate change, anticipated market experience and historical claims inflation. In addition, when determining
the loss provision, the projection of future cash flows includes estimated values of parameters that can affect the
amount of an individual claim (e.g. frequency of claims, risks connected with the insurance contract – death as a
result of an accident, persistent effects, recovery time, time between date of occurrence of the insured event and the
settlement date).
Sensitivity analysis. Management believes that, due to short-tailed nature of the Group’s business, the performance
of the Group’s portfolio is sensitive mainly to changes in expected loss ratios. The Group adjusts its insurance tariffs
on a regular basis based on the latest developments in these variables so that any emerging trends are taken into
account. However, the sensitivity of certain assumptions, such as legislative change, is not possible to quantify.
Furthermore because of delays that arise between the occurrence of a claim and its subsequent notification and
eventual settlement, the claims provisions are based on estimates.
Consequently the ultimate liability will vary as a result of subsequent developments. Differences resulting from
reassessment of the ultimate liabilities are recognized in the period when reassessment is made.
The table below indicates the effect of changes in the expected loss ratios of certain lines of business (auto-transport
insurance and voluntary medical insurance) related to the period of claim, which conforms with the related reporting
period, to the profit and loss before tax and equity before reinsurance. Listed lines of business are more sensitive to
changes in loss provision assumptions than others. Reinsurance does not significantly affect profit and loss.

13. Claims Development Analysis
The claims development analysis is provided for the lines of business for which uncertainty about the amount and
timing of claims payments is typically resolved within more than one year, except for motor own damage insurance
included in Autotransport in the table below for which uncertainty about the amount and timing of claims payments
is typically resolved within one year. The estimate of claims at the end of a particular underwriting year does not
include claims filed and paid during the year. Other lines of business do not include Voluntary medical insurance,
Travel insurance and Green card insurance.

In accordance with the new strategy adopted in 2014, the Group stopped writing retail insurance business, such as
auto-transport and other private property and liability insurance, and focused on corporate insurance business, such
as property, medical and casualty insurance and reinsurance.
In November 2015, the management committed to a plan to sell voluntary medical insurance business of the
Company to Allianz Life Insurance Company, Ltd., an entity under common shareholders control, following a
strategic decision to place greater focus on the Group’s key competencies (note 30).

Differences between IFRS and statutory taxation regulations give rise to certain temporary differences between the
carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and for profits tax purposes. In 2015
and 2014 the tax effect of the movement on these temporary differences is recorded at the rate of 20%, except for
income on government and municipal securities that is taxed at 9-15%.
In the context of the Group’s current structure, tax losses and current tax assets of different companies may not be
offset against current tax liabilities and taxable profits of other companies and, accordingly, taxes may accrue even
where there is a net consolidated tax loss. Therefore, a deferred tax asset of one company of the Group may not be
offset against a deferred tax liability of another company.
The net deferred tax asset represents income taxes recoverable through future revenues and is recorded as an asset.
A deferred tax asset is recorded for tax loss carry forwards only to the extent that realization of the related tax
benefit is probable.
As at 31 December 2015, cumulative deferred tax assets that have not been recognised total RUB 1 608 533 thousand
(2014: RUB 1 785 648 thousand), including unrecognized cumulative tax loss carry forwards totaling RUB 1 367 084
thousands expiring in 2023-2025 (2014: RUB 1 353 734 thousand, expiring in 2023-2024). Deferred tax assets have
not been recognised because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can
utilise the benefits therefrom.

24. Risk Management and Internal Controls
Insurance risk
The primary insurance activity carried out by the Group assumes the risk of loss from individuals or organizations that are directly subject to the risk. As such the Group is exposed to the uncertainty surrounding the timing and severity of claims under the insurance contract. Such risks relate to:
Auto-transport insurance which includes fully comprehensive motor insurance (Casco), obligatory motor third party liability insurance (OMTPL) and voluntary motor third party liability insurance (VMTPL). Under Casco contracts, corporate entities and individuals are reimbursed for any loss of, or damage caused to their vehicles. MTPL contracts provide indemnity cover to the owner of the motor vehicle against compensation payable to third parties for property damage, death or personal injury.
Voluntary medical insurance under which the Group pays benefits to policyholders for medical treatment and hospital expenses. The portfolio consists predominantly of collective corporate policies.
Property insurance comprises both private property insurance and industrial property insurance and indemnifies the policyholder, subject to any limits or excesses, against the loss or damage to their own tangible property.
Finance insurance under which the Group indemnifies policyholders for losses resulting from business interruption insured events and agricultural losses (e.g. loss of crops).
The Group also provides coverage for life insurance, inwards reinsurance, cargo, marine, liability and a number of other lines of business under which the Group indemnifies the policyholders for the risk of losses.
In accordance with the new strategy adopted in 2014, the Group stopped writing retail insurance business, such as auto-transport and other private property and liability insurance, and focused on corporate insurance business, such as medical, property and casualty insurance and reinsurance. The insurance license in obligatory motor third party liability insurance was restricted in 2015 and until 15 January 2016.
In November 2015, the management committed to a plan to sell voluntary medical insurance business of the Company to Allianz Life Insurance Company, Ltd., an entity under common shareholders control, following a strategic decision to place greater focus on the Group’s key competencies (note 30).
The Group cedes insurance risk to limit exposure to underwriting losses under various agreements that cover individual and portfolio risks. These reinsurance agreements spread the risk and reduce the effect of losses. The amount of each risk retained depends on the Group’s evaluation of the specific risk.
Under the terms of the reinsurance agreements, the reinsurer agrees to reimburse the ceded amount in the event the claim is incurred. However, the Group remains liable to its policyholders with respect to ceded insurance if any reinsurer fails to meet the obligations it assumes.
When selecting a reinsurer the Group considers their relative creditworthiness. The creditworthiness of the reinsurer is assessed from public rating information and from internal investigations.
The risk under any one insurance contract is the possibility that the insured event occurs and the uncertainty of the amount of the resulting claim. By the very nature of an insurance contract, this risk is random and therefore unpredictable.
For a portfolio of insurance contracts where the theory of probability is applied to pricing and provisioning, the principal risk that the Group faces under its insurance contracts is that the actual claims and benefit payments exceed the carrying amount of the insurance liabilities. This could occur because the frequency or severity of claims and benefits are greater than estimated. Insurance events are random and the actual number of amount of claims and benefits will vary from year to year from the estimate established using statistical techniques.
Experience shows that the larger the portfolio of similar insurance contracts, the smaller the relative variability about the expected outcome will be. In addition, a more diversified portfolio is less likely to be affected across the board by a change in any subset of the portfolio. The Group has developed its insurance underwriting strategy to diversify the type of insurance risks accepted and within each of these categories to achieve a sufficiently large population of risks to reduce the variability of the expected outcome.
Factors that aggravate insurance risk include lack of risk diversification in terms of type and amount of risk, geographical location and type of industry covered.
The Group manages these risks through its underwriting strategy, adequate reinsurance arrangements and proactive claims handling. The underwriting strategy attempts to ensure that the underwritten risks are well diversified in terms of type and amount of risk, industry and geography. Underwriting limits are in place to enforce appropriate risk selection criteria. The Group has the right to re-price the risk or renewal. It also has the ability to impose deductibles and reject fraudulent claims.
The reinsurance arrangements include excess and catastrophe coverage. The Group has a group-wide retention limit. In addition, under the Group reinsurance program, individual business units are permitted to purchase additional reinsurance protection.

Financial risk
The financial risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of credit, market (which includes
foreign exchange, interest rate and equity price risks), currency and liquidity risks. The primary objectives of the financial
risk management function are to establish risk limits, and then ensure that exposure to risks stays within these limits.
The Board of Directors of the Group has overall responsibility for the oversight of the risk management framework,
monitoring the management of key risks and reviewing the Group’s risk management policies and procedures as
well as approving significant large exposures.
The day to day financial risk management function is carried out primarily by the Risk Management department and
Treasury, heads of both departments report directly to the Chief Financial Officer.
The Group manages open positions in financial risk within an investment framework that has been developed to
achieve long-term investment returns in excess of the Group obligations under insurance and investment contracts.
The principal technique of the investment framework is to match assets to the liabilities arising from insurance and
investment contracts by reference to the type of benefits payable to contract holders. For each distinct category of
liabilities, a separate portfolio of assets is maintained. The Group’s investment framework is integrated with the
management of financial risks associated with the other financial assets and liabilities not directly associated with
insurance and investment liabilities (in particular borrowings and investments in foreign operations).
Additional financial risk mitigation is imposed by Russian legislation (Ukazanie of Central Bank of Russian Federation
№3445-u detailing requirements for types and structure of assets which are admitted for coverage of insurer’s equity).
The Treasury makes the balance sheet forecast for the Group on a quarterly basis to ensure compliance with
legislative requirements.
Credit risk
The Group takes on exposure to credit risk which is the risk that counterparty will be unable to pay amounts in full
when due. The major credit risk exposure is through settlement accounts and deposits with banks, promissory notes
and originated loans and available-for-sale financial instruments which form the majority of investment portfolio.
Credit risk management procedures are primarily focused on setting counterparty limits and monitoring of
compliance with these limits.
Group counterparty credit limits are updated by the Risk Management department and approved by the Investment
Committee on a monthly basis. The internal methodology for setting of limits is based on analysis of counterparties’
official financial reports and certain non-financial information.
Monitoring of compliance with existing credit limits is performed by the Risk Management department on a
monthly basis.
The Group structures its credit risks by placing limits on the amount of risk accepted from individual counterparties
and types of debt instrument.
The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is presented in the following table. The impact of possible netting of
assets and liabilities to reduce potential credit exposure is not significant.

Liquidity risk. The Group is exposed to liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in
meeting its commitments when they fall due. The Group’s policy is to ensure, as far as possible, that it has sufficient
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, without risking damage to reputation or incurring unacceptable losses
(e.g. investment losses due to urgent withdrawal of assets from investment portfolio).
Liquidity risk management is the function of the Treasury Department. In order to ensure availability of sufficient
funds for timely settlement of payables, the Treasury Department performs cash flow planning with a 2 week
horizon. To ensure maximum predictability of cash outflows, payments require cash reservation in advance. Also,
the Group mitigates liquidity risk by fixing a statistically determined optimal share of cash in the investment
portfolio as well as by diversifying deposits by maturity dates. Liquidity analysis is presented further within analysis
of interest rate risk.
Market risk. Market risk is the risk that the value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of
changes in market factors. Market risk comprises three types of risks: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk.
Interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk through its interest-
bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Other assets and liabilities of the Group are mostly not interest-
bearing. Interest rate risk is managed in the Group by means of volatility analysis of interest rates by instruments.
Conclusions based on this analysis determine investment policy.
The following tables show assets and liabilities as at 31 December 2015 by separating interest-bearing and non-
interest-bearing assets and liabilities and disclose their remaining contractual maturity. The undiscounted cash flows
on the Group’s financial liabilities on the basis of their earliest possible contractual maturity do not vary materially
from this analysis.

Equity price risk is a risk that the value of an equity financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or factors affecting all instruments traded in the market. Price risk arises when the Group takes a long or short position in an equity financial instrument.
The following tables detail the Group’s sensitivity to a 10% increase and decrease in market price:
2015 2014

Net impact on equity (12 892) 12 892 (19 944) 19 944
The above table demonstrates the effect of a change in a key assumption while other assumptions remain unchanged. In reality, there is a correlation between the assumptions and other factors. It should also be noted that these sensitivities are non-linear, and larger or smaller impacts should not be interpolated or extrapolated from these results.
The sensitivity analyses do not take into consideration that the Group’s assets and liabilities are actively managed. Additionally, the financial position of the Group may vary at the time that any actual market movement occurs. For example, the Group’s financial risk management strategy aims to manage the exposure to market fluctuations. As investment markets move past various trigger levels, management actions could include selling investments, changing investment portfolio allocation and taking other protective action. Consequently, the actual impact of a change in the assumptions may not have any impact on the liabilities, whereas assets are held at market value on the statement of financial position. In these circumstances, the different measurement bases for liabilities and assets may lead to volatility in shareholder equity.
Other limitations in the above sensitivity analyses include the use of hypothetical market movements to demonstrate potential risk that only represent the Group’s view of possible near-term market changes that cannot be predicted with any certainty; and the assumption that all interest rates, exchange rates or market prices move in an identical fashion.
Currency risk is a risk that the value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group takes on exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing foreign currency exchange rates on its financial position and cash flows.
Asset Liability Matching methodology is used by the Group and provides appropriate currency structure to mitigate currency risk. This methodology allows the Group to calculate and manage the currency structure of the investment portfolio to minimize currency risk. The Group manages this currency risk by investing into US dollar and EURO instruments and maintaining US dollar cash balances to the extent allowed under Russian insurance regulations.
The Group’s exposure to currency risk as at 31 December 2015 is presented below.

The following tables detail the Group’s sensitivity to a 20% increase in the USD and EUR against the RUB. The
sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated items and adjusts their translation at the
end of the period for a 20% change in foreign currency rates. 20% is the sensitivity rate that represents
management’s assessment of reasonably possible change in foreign currency exchange rates.

A strengthening of the RUB against the above currencies at 31 December 2015 and 2014 would have had the equal but
opposite effect on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.
The above sensitivity analysis does not take into consideration that the Group’s assets and liabilities are actively
managed, so that Group’s exposure to market fluctuations is minimal. Management action could include selling
investments, changing investment portfolio allocation and other protective actions.
Also, the analysis demonstrates the effect of change in one of the key factors (foreign exchange rate), while other
factors remain unchanged. In reality there is correlation between key economic factors. It should also be noted that
the sensitivities shown above are non-linear, larger or smaller impacts should not be extrapolated or interpolated
from these results.

personnel. All members of the Company’s governing and management bodies meet with these requirements.
Management believes that the Group complies with the regulatory requirements related to internal control systems,
including requirements related to the internal audit function, and that Group’s internal control systems are
appropriate for the scale, nature and complexity of operations.
25. Capital Management
The Insurance Regulatory Bodies of the Russian Federation set and monitor capital requirements for the Company.
The Company recognizes as Capital, items which are defined in accordance with legislation of the Russian
Federation as capital.
The main objective of the Company's capital management is to comply with the regulatory requirements of the
Russian Federation legislation in respect of financial stability and solvency of the Company and its ability to
continue carrying out its financial and economic activity in accordance with going concern principle.
The regulatory requirement for fully paid minimum share capital of the Company which provides any type of
reinsurance coverage is RUB 480 000 thousand.
As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the actual fully paid share capital of the Company is RUB 5 861 220 thousand
which complies with the minimum statutory limit.
In order to comply with regulatory requirements in respect of capital and insurance reserves allocation the Company
implements an investment policy which imposes certain restrictions on the structure of investment assets. The
Company monitors application of investment policy on a daily basis. The Company assesses capital adequacy level
on a regular basis to comply with the minimum paid share capital requirements and regulatory solvency margin
level. The Company monitors compliance with the stated above requirements on a monthly basis. Regular
monitoring of capital adequacy level enables the Company to forecast the need for additional capital investment.
As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the Company complied with the requirements set by the Insurance Regulatory
Bodies of the Russian Federation in respect of solvency margin level, placements of insurance reserves funds and
structure of assets used for coverage of equity.

26. Contingencies and Commitments
Legal proceedings. From time to time and in the normal course of business, claims against the Group are received. On
the basis of own estimates and internal and external professional advice, Management is of the opinion that no material
losses will be incurred, which are not already recorded as a provision in these consolidated financial statements.
Tax legislation. The taxation system in the Russian Federation continues to evolve and is characterized by frequent
changes in legislation, official pronouncements and court decisions, which are sometimes contradictory and subject
to varying interpretation by different tax authorities. Taxes are subject to review and investigation by a number of
authorities who have the authority to impose severe fines, penalties and interest charges. A tax year remains open for
review by the tax authorities during the three subsequent calendar years; however, under certain circumstances a tax
year may remain open longer. Recent events within the Russian Federation suggest that the tax authorities are taking
a more assertive position in their interpretation and enforcement of tax legislation.
These circumstances may create tax risks in the Russian Federation that are substantially more significant than in
other countries. Management believes that it has provided adequately for tax liabilities based on its interpretations of
applicable Russian tax legislation, official pronouncements and court decisions. However, the interpretations of the
relevant authorities could differ and the effect on the financial position, if the authorities were successful in
enforcing their interpretations, could be significant.
Transfer pricing legislation enacted in the Russian Federation starting from 1 January 2012 provides for major
modifications making local transfer pricing rules closer to OECD guidelines, but creating additional uncertainty in
practical application of tax legislation in certain circumstances.
These transfer pricing rules introduce an obligation for the taxpayers to prepare transfer pricing documentation with
respect to controlled transactions and prescribe new basis and mechanisms for accruing additional taxes and interest
in case prices in the controlled transactions differ from the market level.
The transfer pricing rules primarily apply to cross-border transactions between related parties, as well as to certain
cross-border transactions between independent parties, as determined under the Russian Tax Code. In addition, the
rules apply to in-country transactions between related parties if the accumulated annual volume of the transactions
between the same parties exceeds a particular threshold (RUB 1 billion in 2014 and thereon).
Since there is no practice of applying the new transfer pricing rules by the tax authorities and courts as transfer
pricing tax audits under new rules started recently, however, it is anticipated that transfer pricing arrangements will
be subject to very close scrutiny potentially having effect on these consolidated financial statements.
The Management believes that their interpretation of the relevant legislation is appropriate and the Group’s tax,
currency and customs positions will be sustained. Accordingly, as at 31 December 2015 and 2014 no provision for
potential tax liabilities is recognized.
Operating lease commitments. Where the Group is the lessee, the future minimum lease payments under non-
cancellable operating leases are as follows:
2015 2014
Less than 1 year 207 358 416 865
Between 1 and 5 years 150 879 268 131
More than 5 years - 103
Total operating lease commitments 358 237 685 099
Pensions and retirement plans. As at 31 December 2015 and 2014, the Group was not liable for any supplementary
pensions, post-retirement health care, insurance benefits, or retirement indemnities to its current or former employees.
Fiduciary assets. In 2014 the Group provided trustee services to its customers through its asset management subsidiary
– Allianz Investments. As at 31 December 2014 total amount of assets managed by Allianz Investments was equal to
RUB 13 080 903 thousand and included federal loan bonds, corporate bonds and shares and government bonds. Allianz
Investments was disposed of in 2015. The Group no longer carries out asset management activity.

Other assets and payables measured at fair value relate to remuneration of senior management (note 28).
The estimates of fair value are intended to approximate 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. However, given the uncertainties and the use of subjective judgment, the fair value should not be interpreted as being realisable in an immediate sale of the assets or transfer of liabilities.
The Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements:
Level 1: quoted market price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using: quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.
Level 3: inputs that are unobservable. This category includes all instruments where the valuation technique includes inputs not based on observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument’s valuation. This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments where significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.
Fair values of available-for-sale financial instruments that are traded in active markets and other assets and payables measured at fair value are based on quoted market prices or dealer price quotations. For all other financial instruments the Group determines fair values using other valuation techniques. The estimated fair values of all financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying values.
The table below analyses financial instruments measured at fair value as at 31 December 2015 and 2014, by the level in the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorized. The amounts are based on the values recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position:
Carrying amounts as at 31 December 2015 Carrying amounts as at 31 December 2014
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
