AXA AFFIN GENERAL INSURANCE BERHAD (Incorporated in Malaysia) DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED) BAD AND DOUBTFUL DEBTS Before the financial statements of the Group and Company were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of impaired debts and the making of impairment allowance for impaired debts, and satisfied themselves that all known impaired debts had been written off and adequate allowance had been made for impaired debts. At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances that would render the amount written-off for impaired debts or the amount of the impairment allowance for impaired debts in the financial statements of the Group and Company inadequate to any substantial extent. CURRENT ASSETS Before the financial statements of the Group and Company were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps to ascertain that any current assets, other than debts, which were unlikely to realise in the ordinary course of business, their values as shown in the accounting records of the Group and Company have been written down to amounts which they might be expected so to realise. At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances which would render the values attributed to the current assets in the financial statements of the Group and Company misleading. VALUATION METHODS At the date of this report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances which have arisen which render adherence to the existing methods of valuation of assets or liabilities of the Group and Company misleading or inappropriate. CONTINGENT AND OTHER LIABILITIES At the date of this report, there does not exist: (a) any charge on the assets of the Group and Company which has arisen since the end of
the financial year which secures the liabilities of any other person, or
(b) any contingent liability in respect of the Group and Company that has arisen since the end of the financial year.
No contingent or other liability of the Group and Company has become enforceable, or is likely to become enforceable within the period of twelve months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the Directors, will or may substantially affect the ability of the Group and Company to meet their obligations when they fall due. For the purpose of this paragraph, contingent or other liabilities do not include liabilities arising from contracts of insurance underwritten in the ordinary course of business of the Group and Company.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

AXA AFFIN GENERAL INSURANCE BERHAD (Incorporated in Malaysia) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 DECEMBER 2012
1 PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES AND GENERAL INFORMATION The Company, a public limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Malaysia, is principally engaged in the underwriting of all classes of general insurance business. There have been no significant changes in the nature of the activities during the financial year. The Directors regard AXA, a corporation incorporated in France, as the ultimate holding corporation. The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 9 May 2013.
2 BASIS OF PREPARATION The financial statements of the Group and Company have been prepared under the historical cost convention except as disclosed in this summary of significant accounting policies, and comply with Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards (“MFRS”), International Financial Reporting Standards and the provisions of the Companies Act, 1965. The financial statements of the Group and Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2012 are the first set of financial statements prepared in accordance with MFRS, including MFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of Malaysian Financial Reporting Standards”. The Group and Company have consistently applied the same accounting policies in its opening MFRS statement of financial position at 1 January 2011 (transition date) and throughout all years presented as if these policies had always been in effect. Subsequent to the transition in the financial reporting framework to MFRS on 1 January 2012, the comparative information has not been audited under MFRS. However, the comparative balance sheets as at 31 December 2011, comparative statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the financial year then ended have been audited under the previous financial reporting framework, Financial Reporting Standards (“FRS”) in Malaysia. There is no impact from the transition from FRS to MFRS on the Group and Company’s reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial year. It also requires the Directors to exercise their judgement in the process of applying the Group’s and Company’s accounting policies. Although these estimates and judgement are based on the Directors’ best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 4 to the financial statements.

AXA AFFIN GENERAL INSURANCE BERHAD (Incorporated in Malaysia) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 DECEMBER 2012 (CONTINUED)
2 BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED)
(a) Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards
that are applicable and relevant to the Group and Company but not yet effective.
The Group and Company will apply the new standards amendments to standards and interpretations in the following period: Financial year beginning on/after 1 January 2013 MFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” (effective from 1 January 2013) aims to improve
consistency and reduce complexity by providing a precise definition of fair value and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across MFRS. The requirements do not extend the use of fair value accounting but provide guidance on how it should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards. The enhanced disclosure requirements are similar to those in MFRS 7 “Financial instruments: Disclosures”, but apply to all assets and liabilities measured at fair value, not just financial ones. The Group and Company will apply this standard from financial period beginning on 1 January 2013.
Amendment to MFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” (effective from 1 January
2013) requires more extensive disclosures for using quantitative information about recognised financial instruments that are offset in the statement of financial position and those that are subject to master netting or similar arrangements irrespective of whether they are offset. The Group and Company will apply this standard from financial period beginning on 1 January 2013.
Amendment to MFRS 101 “Presentation of items of Other Comprehensive Income”
(effective from 1 July 2012) requires entities to separate items presented in other comprehensive income in the statement of comprehensive income into two groups, based on whether or not they may be recycled to profit or loss in the future. The amendments do not address which items are presented in other comprehensive income. The Group and Company will apply this standard from financial period beginning on 1 January 2013.
Amendment to MFRS 119 “Employee Benefits” (effective from 1 January 2013)
makes significant changes to the recognition and measurement of defined benefit pension expense and termination benefits, and to the disclosures for all employee benefits. Actuarial gains and losses will no longer be deferred using the corridor approach. MFRS 119 shall be withdrawn on application of this amendment. The Group and Company will apply this standard from financial period beginning on 1 January 2013.

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION (CONTINUED) (a) Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards
that are applicable and relevant to the Group and Company but not yet effective (continued)
Financial year beginning on/after 1 January 2014
Amendment to MFRS 132 “Financial Instruments: Presentation” (effective from 1
January 2014) does not change the current offsetting model in MFRS 132. It clarifies the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable right of set-off” that the right of set off must be available today (not contingent on a future event) and legally enforceable for all counterparties in the normal course of business. It clarifies that some gross settlement mechanisms with features that are effectively equivalent to net settlement will satisfy the MFRS 132 offsetting criteria. The Group and Company will apply this standard from financial period beginning on 1 January 2014.
Financial year beginning on/after 1 January 2015
MFRS 9 “Financial Instruments – Classification and Measurement of Financial Assets
and Financial Liabilities” (effective from 1 January 2015) replaces the multiple classification and measurement models in MFRS 139 with a single model that has only two classification categories: amortised cost and fair value. The basis of classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.
The accounting and presentation for financial liabilities and for de-recognising financial instruments has been relocated from MFRS 139, without change, except for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). Entities with financial liabilities designated at FVTPL recognise changes in fair value due to changes in the liability’s credit risk directly in other comprehensive income. There is no subsequent recycling of the amounts in other comprehensive income to profit and loss, but accumulated gains or losses may be transferred within equity.
The guidance in MFRS 139 on impairment of financial assets and hedge accounting continues to apply. MFRS 7 requires disclosure on transition from MFRS 139 to MFRS 9. The Group and Company will apply this standard from financial period beginning on 1 January 2015.
The Group and Company are reviewing the adoption of the above accounting standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards and will complete the process prior to the reporting requirement deadline.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are those entities over which the Group has power to govern the financial and
operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.
Subsidiaries are consolidated using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the
acquisition method of accounting, subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business
combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired at the date of acquisition is reflected as goodwill. See accounting policy Note 3(d) on goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the gain is recognised directly in the statement of income. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated. This may indicate an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. The gain or loss on disposal of a subsidiary which is the difference between net disposal proceeds and the Group’s share of its net assets as of the date of disposal including the cumulative amount of any exchange differences that relate to the subsidiary, is recognised in the statement of income attributable to the parent.
(b) Investment in a subsidiary Investment in a subsidiary is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Where
an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. See accounting policy Note 3(g) on impairment of financial assets.

(c) Property, plant and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any
accumulated impairment losses. All items of property and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Subsequent costs are
included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial year in which they are incurred.
Subsequent costs recognition, property and equipment are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Land and buildings, which are substantially occupied by the Group and Company for their
operations, are classified under property, plant and equipment. Land and buildings are initially stated at cost and subsequently revalued by the Directors,
based on independent valuation of the open market value on the existing use basis carried out by professional valuers. The valuation of the land and buildings is carried out once in every three years or earlier if the carrying values of the revalued assets are materially higher and/or lower than the market values. When the land and buildings are revalued, any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset. The net amount is then restated as the revalued amount of the asset. The surplus arising on revaluation is credited to an asset revaluation reserve account except that a surplus, to the extent that such surplus is related to and not greater than a deficit arising on revaluation previously recorded as an expense, is credited to the income statement. A deficit arising on revaluation is recognised as an expense except that, to the extent that such a deficit is related to a surplus which was previously recorded as a credit to the asset revaluation reserve account and which has not been subsequently reversed or utilised, it is charged directly to that account. Freehold land is not depreciated as it has infinite life. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided for on a straight-line basis to write off the cost of each asset to its residual value over the estimated useful life, the following rates: Freehold building 50 years Motor vehicles 5 - 6 years Office and computer equipment 3 - 5 years Furniture, fixtures and fittings 5 - 10 years The residual values and useful lives of property, plant and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

At each balance sheet date, the Group and Company assess whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indications exist, an analysis is performed to assess whether the carrying amount of the asset is fully recoverable. A write-down is made if the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. See accounting policy Note 3(h) on impairment of non-financial assets.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amounts and are credited or charged in the income statement.
(d) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition of the subsidiary over the fair
value of the Group’s share of the identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated
impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill (inclusive of impairment losses are not reversed. See accounting policy Note 3(h) on impairment of non-financial assets.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The
allocation is made to those cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination in which the goodwill arose.
The Group allocates goodwill to the combined general insurance business as a whole,
which has been identified as a cash-generating unit.
(e) Intangible assets – software Where computer software is not an integral part of a related item of computer hardware,
the software is treated as an intangible asset. Capitalised internal-use software costs include external direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining the software, payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote substantial time to the project. Capitalisation of these costs ceases no later than the point at which the project is substantially completed and ready for its intended purpose. These costs are amortised over their expected useful life of 4 years on a straight-line basis, with the useful lives being reviewed annually.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (f) Investments and financial assets The Group and Company classify their investments into loans and receivables (“LAR”) or
available-for-sale (“AFS”) financial assets. Classification of the financial assets is determined at initial recognition.
(i) LAR
LAR are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that
are not quoted in an active market. These financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus all transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition. After initial measurement, LAR are measured at amortised cost, using the effective yield method, less allowance for impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the financial assets are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process.
(ii) AFS
AFS financial assets are investment that are not classified as fair value through
profit or loss, held-to-maturity. AFS financial assets initially recorded at fair value. After initial measurement, the AFS financial assets are re-measured at fair value.
Interest from AFS financial assets calculated using the effective interest method, is recognised in the income statement. Any gains or losses arising from a change in fair value, net of income tax, are recognised directly in other comprehensive income, except for impairment losses. When the AFS financial assets are derecognised, the cumulative fair value gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income are transferred to the income statement as net realised gains or losses on AFS financial assets.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(g) Impairment of financial assets The Group and Company assess at each balance sheet whether there is objective
evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset 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 asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset that can be reliably estimated.
(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on financial asset carried at
amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the income statement.
If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the
decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account. The amount of the reversal is recognised in the income statement.
(ii) Financial assets carried at cost If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on securities carried at cost
(e.g. equity instruments for which there is no active market or whose fair value cannot be reliably measured) has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for similar securities. Such impairment losses shall not be reversed.
(iii) Financial assets carried at fair value
In the case of AFS financial assets, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the financial asset below its cost is considered in determining whether the assets are impaired. If any such evidence exists for financial asset held at AFS, the cumulative loss, measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in the income statement is removed from other comprehensive income and recognised in the income statement.
If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of a debt instrument classified as AFS
increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in the income statement, the impairment loss is reversed through the income statement. Impairment losses previously recognised in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(h) Impairment of other non-financial assets The carrying values of assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment
when there is an indication that the assets might be impaired. Impairment is measured by comparing the carrying values of the assets with their recoverable amounts. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use, which is measured by reference to discounted cash flows. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets, or, if it is not possible, for the cash-generating unit. Non-financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of impairment at each reporting date.
An impairment loss is charged to the income statement immediately. A subsequent increase in the recoverable amount of an asset is treated as a reversal of
the previous impairment loss and is recognised to the extent of the carrying amount of the asset that would have been determined (net of amortisation and depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised. The reversal is recognised in the income statement immediately. Impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed.
(i) Insurance receivables Insurance receivables are recognised when due and measured on initial recognition at the
fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, insurance receivables are measured at amortised cost, using the effective yield method.
If there is objective evidence that the insurance receivable is impaired, the Group and
Company reduce the carrying amount of the insurance receivable accordingly and recognise that impairment loss in the income statement. The Group and Company gather the objective evidence that an insurance receivable is impaired using the same processes adopted for financial assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment loss is calculated under the same method used for these financial assets.
(j) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank balances, excluding fixed and call
deposits which are held for investment purpose.
(k) Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the
issuance of new shares and options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (l) Insurance product classification The Group and Company issue contracts that transfer insurance risk. Insurance contracts are those that transfer significant insurance risk. An insurance
contract is a contract under which the Group and Company (the insurer) have accepted significant insurance risk from another party (the policyholders) by agreeing to compensate the policyholders if a specified uncertain future event (the insured event) adversely affects the policyholders. As a general guideline, the Group and Company determine whether they have significant insurance risk, by comparing benefits paid with benefits payable if the insured event did not occur.
(m) General insurance underwriting results The general insurance underwriting results are determined for each class of business after
taking into account reinsurances, commissions, unearned premiums and claims incurred. Premium income Premiums are recognised in a financial year in respect of the risks assumed during that
particular financial year. Premiums from direct business are recognised during the financial year upon the issuance of debit notes or policies. Premiums in respect of risks incepted for which debit notes or policies have not been raised as of the balance sheet date are accrued at that date as pipeline premiums.
Inward treaty reinsurance premiums are recognised on the basis of periodic advices
received from ceding insurers. Outward reinsurance premiums are recognised in the same accounting period as the
original policy to which the reinsurance relates. Premium liabilities Premium liabilities refer to the higher of:
(i) the aggregate of the unearned premium reserves (“UPR”); or (ii) the best estimate value of the insurer’s unexpired risk reserves (“URR”) at the
valuation date and the Provision of Risk Margin for Adverse Deviation (“PRAD”) calculated at the overall Group and Company level. The best estimate value is a prospective estimate of the expected future payments arising from future events insured under policies in force as at valuation date and also includes allowance for the insurer’s expenses, including overheads and cost of reinsurance, expected to be incurred during the unexpired period in administering these policies and settling the relevant claims, and shall allow for expected future premium refunds.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (m) General insurance underwriting results (continued) UPR represent the portion of the net premiums of insurance policies written that relate to
the unexpired periods of the policies at the end of the financial period. In determining UPR at the balance sheet date, the method that most accurately reflected
the actual unearned premium is used, as follows:
(i) 25% method for marine cargo, aviation cargo and transit business; and (ii) time apportionment method for non-annual policies reduced by the percentage of
accounted gross direct business commissions to the corresponding premiums, not exceeding limits specified by BNM; and
(iii) 1/365th method for all other classes of general business in respect of Malaysian
policies, reduced by the corresponding percentage of accounted gross direct business commission to the corresponding premium, not exceeding limits specified by BNM.
In the previous financial years, the UPR were computed based on the 25% method for marine cargo, time apportionment method for non-annual policies and 1/24th method for all other classes of general business. The change in the basis of computation of UPR is treated as a change in accounting estimate. The impact of the change in accounting estimate arising from the different UPR methods used and the differences between the estimated and actual pipeline premiums resulted in an increase of the Group and Company’s profit before taxation for the current financial year by RM39,303,000. Acquisition costs The cost of acquiring and renewing insurance policies net of income derived from ceding reinsurance premiums is recognised as incurred and properly allocated to the periods in which it is probable they give rise to income. Claims liabilities A liability for outstanding claims is recognised in respect of both direct insurance and inward reinsurance. Provision for claims liabilities is made for the estimated costs of all claims together with related expenses less reinsurance recoveries, in respect of claims notified but not settled at the balance sheet date. Provision is also made for the cost of claims, together with related expenses, incurred but not reported at the balance sheet date, based on an actuarial valuation. Throughout the course of the financial year, management regularly re-assesses claims and provision both on an individual and class basis, based on independent professional advice and reports, other available information and management’s own assessment of the claims and provisions.

Reinsurance
The Group and Company cede insurance risk in the normal course of business for all of its businesses. Reinsurance assets represent balances due from reinsurance companies. Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the outstanding claims provision or settled claims associated with the reinsurer’s policies and are in accordance with the related reinsurance contracts. Ceded reinsurance arrangements do not relieve the Group and Company from their obligations to policyholders. Premiums and claims are presented on a gross basis for both ceded and assumed reinsurance. Reinsurance assets are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date or more frequently when an indication of impairment arises during the reporting period. Impairment occurs when there is objective evidence as a result of an event that occurred after initial recognition of the reinsurance asset that the Group and Company may not receive all outstanding amounts due under the terms of the contract and the event has a reliably measurable impact on the amounts that the Group and Company will receive from the reinsurer. The impairment loss is recorded in the income statement. Gains or losses on buying reinsurance are recognised in the income statement immediately at the date of purchase and are not amortised. The Group and Company also assume reinsurance risk in the normal course of business for general insurance contracts when applicable. Premiums and claims on assumed reinsurance are recognised as revenue or expenses in the same manner as they would be if the reinsurance were considered direct business. Reinsurance liabilities represent balances due to reinsurance companies. Amount payable are estimated in a manner consistent with the related insurance contract. Reinsurance assets or liabilities are derecognised when the contractual rights are extinguished or expire or when the contract is transferred to another party. Reinsurance contracts that do not transfer significant insurance risk are accounted for directly through the balance sheet. These are deposit assets or financial liabilities that are recognised based on the consideration paid or received less any explicit identified premiums or fees to be retained by the reinsured. Investment income on these contracts is accounted for using the effective yield method when accrued.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (m) General insurance underwriting results (continued)
Insurance contract liabilities General insurance contract liabilities are recognised when contracts are entered into and premiums are charged. These liabilities comprise claims liabilities and premiums liabilities. Claims liabilities are based on the estimated ultimate cost of all claims incurred but not settled at the balance sheet date, whether reported or not, together with related claims handling costs and reduction for the expected value of salvage and other recoveries. Delays can be experienced in the notification and settlement of certain types of claims, therefore, the ultimate cost of these claims cannot be known with certainty at the balance sheet date. The liability is calculated at the reporting date using a range of standard actuarial claim projection techniques based on empirical data and current assumptions that may include a margin for adverse deviation. The liability is not discounted for the time value of money. No provision for equalisation or catastrophe reserve is recognised. The liabilities are derecognised when the contract expires, is discharged or is cancelled. The provision for unearned premiums represents premiums received for risks that have not yet expired. Generally, the reserve is released over the term of the contract and is recognised as premium income. At each reporting date, the Group and Company review the unexpired risks and a liability adequacy test is performed to determine whether there is any overall excess of expected claims and deferred acquisition costs over unearned premiums. This calculation uses current estimates of future contractual cash flows (taking into consideration current loss ratios) after taking account the investment return expected to arise on assets relating to the relevant general insurance technical provisions. If these estimates show that the carrying amount of the unearned premiums less related deferred acquisition costs is inadequate, the deficiency is recognised in the income statement by setting up a provision for liability adequacy.

(n) Other revenue recognition Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. The effective interest
rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts or payments through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to its carrying amount. The calculation includes significant fees and transaction costs that are integral to the effective interest rate, as well as premiums or discounts.
When a loan and receivable is impaired, the Group and Company reduce the carrying
amount to its recoverable amount, being the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument, and continue unwinding the discount as interest income. Interest income on impaired loan and receivables are recognised using the original effective interest rate.
Other interest income, including amortisation of premiums or accretion of discounts, is
recognised on a time proportion basis that takes into account the effective yield of the asset.
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established. Rental income is recognised on a time proportion basis except where default in payment of
rent has already occurred and the rent due remains outstanding, in which case recognition of rental income is suspended. Subsequent to suspension, rental income is recognised on the receipt basis until all arrears have been paid.
Gains or losses arising on disposal of financial assets are credited or charged to the
income statement. (o) Income tax
Current tax expense is determined according to the tax laws in Malaysia and includes all taxes based upon the taxable profits and is measured using the tax rates that have been enacted at the reporting date. Current tax is recognised in the income statement. Deferred tax is recognised in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the amounts attributed to assets and liabilities for tax purpose and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However, deferred tax is not accounted if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses can be utilised. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or deferred tax liability is settled. Deferred tax is recognised in the income statement except when it arises from a transaction which is recognised in other comprehensive income, in which case, the deferred tax is also charged or credited to other comprehensive income.

(i) Short-term employees’ benefits Wages, salaries, paid annual leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary
benefits are accrued in the financial year in which the associated services are rendered by employees of the Group and Company.
(ii) Post-employment benefits The Group and Company contribute to the Employees’ Provident Fund (‘EPF”), a
defined contribution plan. The Group’s and Company’s contributions to the defined contribution plan are charged to the income statement in the financial year to which they relate. Once the contributions have been paid, the Group and Company have no further payment obligations.
The Group and Company also operate a defined contribution retirement gratuity
scheme based on a percentage of basic staff salary, less contributions made to the EPF.
(iii) Termination benefits Termination benefits are payable whenever an employee’s employment is
terminated before the normal retirement date or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group and Company recognise termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminate the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.
(iv) Share-based compensation AXA, the ultimate holding corporation, offers certain eligible employees of the Group
and Company options to purchase ordinary shares of AXA, pursuant to the share options plan maintained by AXA, at a fixed price. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is recognised as an expense. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted, excluding the impact of any non-market vesting conditions (for example, profitability and premium income growth targets). Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. At each balance sheet date, the Group and Company revise the estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. It recognises the impact of the revision of original estimates, if any, in the statement of income, and a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period.

(q) Foreign currencies
Items included in the financial statements of the Group and Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The financial statements are presented in Ringgit Malaysia, which is the Group’s and Company’s functional and presentation currency. All transactions in a currency other than the functional currency (“foreign currency”) are converted into Ringgit Malaysia at the rates of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at that date. Exchange differences arising from the settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation of foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are included in the income statement.
(r) Insurance payables and other payables
Insurance payables and other payables are recognised when due and measured on initial recognition at the fair value of the consideration less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to the initial recognition, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective yield method.
(s) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group and Company have a present obligation as a result of a past event and 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 can be made.
(t) Operating leases
Leases of assets where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised as an expense in the financial year in which termination takes place.
(u) Dividends
Dividends are recognised as liabilities when the obligation to pay is established in which the dividends are declared and approved by the Company’s shareholders. No provision is made for a proposed dividend.

(v) Contingent liabilities and contingent assets The Group and Company do not recognise a contingent liability but disclose its existence
in the financial statements. A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group and Company or a present obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in the extremely rare case where there is a liability that cannot be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events whose existence will be
confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group and Company. The Group and Company do not recognise a contingent asset but disclose its existence where inflows of economic benefits are probable, but not virtually certain.
(w) Fair value estimation for disclosure purpose The basis of estimation of fair values for financial instruments is as follows:
(i) The fair values of Malaysian Government securities and unquoted corporate debt securities are based on the indicative market prices.
(ii) The fair values of quoted equity securities and real estate investment trusts
(“REITs”) are based on quoted market prices. (iii) The fair values of fixed rate loans are estimated by discounting future expected cash
flows, taking into consideration market conditions and contractual terms of these loans.
(iv) The carrying amounts for other financial assets and liabilities with a maturity period
of less than one year are assumed to approximate their fair values.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) (x) Business combination under common control
The transfer of business from the subsidiary has been accounted for as business combination under common control using the predecessor method of accounting. Under the predecessor method of accounting, the consolidated statements of income include the results of each of the combining entities from the date of the combinations. The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are accounted for based on the carrying amounts from the perspective of the common controlling party or the combining entities if the common controlling party does not prepare consolidated financial statements. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the aggregate carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the combination is taken to equity. A similar treatment applies in the Company’s separate financial statements when assets and liabilities representing the underlying businesses under common control are directly acquired by the Company. In accounting for the business combination in the Company’s separate financial statements, the excess of the cost of acquisition over the aggregate carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the combination is taken to equity.
4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated by the Directors and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. (a) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The Group and Company make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, rarely equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined below.
Claims liabilities
The estimation of the ultimate liability arising from claims made under insurance contracts is the Group’s and Company’s most critical accounting estimate. There are several sources of uncertainty that need to be considered in the estimate of the liability that the Group and Company will ultimately pay for such claims.
Estimation of the ultimate cost of certain liabilities claims is a complex process. The Group
and Company apply the AXA Group “Analyze” tool or use an external actuary, to determine the liability within the chain ladder model. Some factors that affect the liability estimation process are the inconsistent court resolutions and jurisprudence that has broadened the intent and scope coverage of the protections offered in the insurance contracts issued by the Group and Company.

4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS (CONTINUED) (a) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions (continued) Claims liabilities (continued) A risk margin for uncertainty is added to the central estimate of outstanding claims. A
central estimate is an estimate of the level of claims provision that is intended to contain no intentional under or over estimation. In simple terms, the central estimate i.e. equally likely to be too high (more than adequate) or too low (inadequate) and is commonly described as providing a 50% probability of adequacy. As the Group and Company require a higher degree of certainty that estimates will be adequate over time, a risk margin is added to the central estimate of outstanding claims.
The key assumptions and the sensitivity analysis of claims liabilities are disclosed in Note 32 to the financial statements.
Impairment of goodwill The Group and Company assess the impairment of goodwill on an annual basis in accordance with its accounting policy in Note 3(d) to the financial statements. The recoverable amount of the goodwill is assessed based on its value-in-use. Value-in-use is determined using the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be generated from future new business, using the estimates and key assumptions as disclosed in Note 7 to the financial statements.
(b) Critical judgement in applying the entity’s accounting policies
In determining and applying accounting policies, judgement is often required in respect of items where the choice of specific accounting policy could materially affect the reported results and financial position of the Group and Company. However, the Directors are of the view that there are currently no accounting policies which require significant judgement to be exercised in their application.

The recoverable amount of the goodwill has been determined based on value-in-use calculations using cash flow projections based on the strategic plan 2012 - 2016 approved by senior management covering a five year period. The projected cash flows beyond 5 years are determined on the assumptions that earnings level will remain fairly stable for the period covering 2017 to 2022 (2011: 2017 to 2021). The projected cash flows are determined by budgeted profitability based on past performance and management’s expectations of market developments.

AXA AFFIN GENERAL INSURANCE BERHAD (Incorporated in Malaysia) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 DECEMBER 2012 (CONTINUED)
7 GOODWILL (CONTINUED)
The key assumptions used in the value-in-use calculation are as follows: (a) Premium growth rates have been projected on the basis of management’s expectations of
market developments taking into account the business plan which reflect future expansion plans and synergies arising from integration of the business of the subsidiary acquired with existing business of the Company.
(b) Loss ratios have been projected after taking into account management’s strategy for
premium growth as well as past developments with respect to loss development patterns. The loss ratios are expected to remain at the existing levels.
(c) The expense projections including projection of acquisition cost/commission have been
done after taking into account the projected inflation over the strategic business plan period as well as projected portfolio growth. The projected portfolio mix has also been considered in determining the projection of acquisition cost/commission.
(d) A discount rate of 12% (2011: 12%) has been considered based on the weighted cost of
capital of the Company. (e) Terminal value is determined based on the present value of the net assets at the end of
2012. Based on the assessment of value-in-use for the cash generating unit, the Group and Company do not expect that any reasonable change in the key assumptions will cause the carrying amount of the goodwill to exceed its recoverable amount, resulting in impairment of goodwill.

9 OTHER INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) (d) Fair value of financial instruments
The following tables show financial instruments recorded at fair value analysed by the different basis of fair values as follows:
GROUP AND COMPANY 31.12.2012 31.12.2011 1.1.2011
RM'000 RM'000 RM'000
Level 1 29,881 58,846 75,270 Level 2 705,879 511,064 431,398 Level 3 250 250 250
736,010 570,160 506,918
The Group and Company categorise fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritises the inputs used by the Group and Company’s valuation techniques for determining the fair value of the financial instruments. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows: Level 1 – Fair value measurements that reflect unadjusted, quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the liability to access at the measurement date. Valuations are based on quoted prices reflecting market transactions involving assets or liabilities identical to those being measured.
Level 2 – Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within
Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Those include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active market markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets, inputs that are observable that are not prices (such as interest rates, credit risks, etc) and inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Fair value measurements using significant non market observable inputs.
These include valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived using data, some or all of which is not market observable, including assumptions about risk.

14 RETAINED EARNINGS
Presently, Malaysian companies adopt the full imputation system. In accordance with the Finance Act 2007, which was gazetted on 28 December 2007, companies shall not be entitled to deduct tax on dividend paid, credited or distributed to its shareholders (“single-tier system”). However, there is a transitional period of six years expiring on 31 December 2013, to allow companies to pay franked dividends to their shareholders under limited circumstances. Companies also have an irrevocable option to disregard their accumulated tax credit under Section 108 of the Income Tax Act, 1967 (“Section 108 balance”) and opt to pay dividends under the single-tier system. The change in the tax legislation also provides for the Section 108 balance to be locked in as at 31 December 2007 in accordance with Section 39 of the Finance Act, 2007.
The Company did not elect for the irrevocable option to disregard the Section 108 balance. During
the transitional period, the Company will utilise the credits in the Section 108 balance as at 31 December 2007 to distribute cash dividend payments to ordinary shareholders as defined under the Finance Act, 2007. The Company has sufficient Section 108 balance and balance in the tax-exempt account to frank the payment of dividends out of its entire retained earnings as at 31 December 2012.

32 RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK The Group and Company issue contracts that transfer Insurance risk. This section summarises these risks
and the way the Group and Company manage them. Insurance risks
The Group and Company underwrite various types of general insurance contracts, where majority of contracts are having annual coverage and premium, with the exception of short term policies in Travel and Marine Cargo (single trip and single shipment policies respectively) and multi-year policies in Construction and Contractor’s All Risks (project policies). For the current financial year ended 31 December 2012, Motor and Fire classes constitute 64.50% (2011: 66.7%) of the Group’s and Company’s business. Insurance contracts transfer the risk from the policyholders to the Group and Company. The Group and Company receive a premium and are then liable for all the claims (as per wording) occurring between the inception date and the expiry date of the insurance contract arising from random events. Underestimation of this insurance risk leads to financial consequences for the Group and the Company as the premium might not be enough to cover the costs. The causes of underestimation can be various such as: (i) Underestimation of the frequency and / or severity of the claims; (ii) Change in legal/economic environment; (iii) Change in insured’s behavior; or (iv) Change in reinsurance rates etc.
Due to the nature of the business, all the above mentioned elements are assessed and the following procedures are in place to mitigate the risks: (i) Documented underwriting guidelines and underwriting authorities; (ii) Risk management engineering and risk accumulation limits; (iii) Reinsurance is placed to minimise certain insurance risks within approved limits and security; (iv) Claims approval and settlement authorities are clearly defined for prudent control on financial exposure;
and (v) Regular internal audit reviews are performed to ensure compliance with the Group’s and Company's
guidelines and standards.

AXA AFFIN GENERAL INSURANCE BERHAD (Incorporated in Malaysia) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 DECEMBER 2012 (CONTINUED)
32 RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK (CONTINUED) Insurance risks (continued)
(b) Sensitivity analysis
The insurance claim liabilities calculation is based on key assumptions. Variation of these assumptions may make vary the amount of claim liabilities and impact significantly the results. As below illustrated, sensitivity analysis are carried out in order to understand how key assumptions (i.e. ultimate loss ratios of the last 3 accident years, case reserve, PRAD and claims handling expenses) impact the claim liability. It is worth mentioning that these 4 assumptions do not represent an exhaustive list but are likely to be the most important.
The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible movements in key assumptions with all other assumptions held constant, showing the impact on gross liabilities, net liabilities, profit before tax and equity (profit after tax). Impact on Impact on Impact on Change in gross net profit Impact on

(c) Claims development tables
The following tables show estimates of cumulative incurred claims including both claims notified (settled or not yet settled) and IBNR for each successive accident year at each balance sheet date, together with cumulative payments to-date. The past year pattern is used to assess future pattern and therefore estimate the ultimate loss ratio and then ultimate cost of claims per accident year. Actuarial methods such as Chain Ladder but also other quantitative information (such as market benchmarks) and qualitative information (such as claim manager’s feedback) are taken into account in the assessments. In setting provisions for claims, the Group and Company assess the future experience and adjust the level of reserve to the level of uncertainty. Risk margin is also provided to cope with this uncertainty. The higher the uncertainty, the higher the risk margin is. This uncertainty depend on the line of business (short tail or long tail), the nature of the risks (high sum insured or low sum insured) as well as the accident year (the more recent the accident year is, the higher the uncertainty associated with the ultimate claims experience is).

AXA AFFIN GENERAL INSURANCE BERHAD (Incorporated in Malaysia) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - 31 DECEMBER 2012 (CONTINUED)
32 RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK (CONTINUED)
Financial risks The Group and Company are exposed to financial risks through their financial assets, reinsurance assets and insurance liabilities. In particular, the key financial risk is that the proceeds from the financial assets are not sufficient to fund the obligations arising from the insurance contracts. The important components of these financial risks are interest rate risk, equity price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and currency risk.
Credit risk The Group and Company have exposures to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will
not be able to pay amounts in full when due. Key areas where the Group and Company are exposed to credit risks are:
Reinsurer’s share of insurance liabilities Amounts due from reinsurers’ in respect of claims already paid Amounts due from insurance contract holders Amounts due from insurance intermediaries, and Counterparty risk with respect to derivative transactions and custodian
The Group and Company structure the levels of credit risk they accepts by placing limits on the exposure to a single counterparty, or groups of counterparty. Such risks are subject to regular review by the management. The Group and Company entered into custody agreements with Standard Chartered Malaysia Berhad and AmInvestment Management Sdn Bhd, whose credit rating is AAA and BBB respectively whereby both companies provide safekeeping services for the Group’s and Company’s investment assets (equities and bonds). Reinsurance is used to manage insurance risk. This does not, however, discharge the Group’s and Company’s liability as primary insurer. If a reinsurer fails to pay a claim for any reason, the Group and Company remain liable for the payment to the policyholder. The creditworthiness of reinsurers is considered on a regular basis by reviewing their financial strength prior to finalisation of any contract. Concentration of credit risk exists when changes in geographic, economic or industry factors similarly affect groups of counterparties whose aggregate credit exposure is material in relation to the Group’s and Company’s total exposures. The Group’s and Company’s portfolio of financial assets is diversified along geographic, industry and product sectors. The Group and Company have been monitoring the concentration risk by adopting appropriate risk control measures, such as setting limit on exposures to individual counterparty.

The Group’s and Company’s equity risk position arises from the holdings of certain equity securities listed in the Bursa Malaysia Depository Sdn Bhd. The Group and Company have been monitoring its concentration risk by adopting appropriate risk control measures. The analysis below is performed for reasonably possible movements in equity price with all other variables held constant, showing the impact of statement of income and equity (due to changes in fair value of AFS financial assets). 31.12.2012 31.12.2011 1.1.2011 Impact on Impact Impact on Impact Impact on Impact statement on statement on statement on GROUP AND COMPANY of income equity* of income equity* of income equity* RM’000 RM’000 RM’000 RM’000 RM’000 RM’000 Change in market price +10% - 2,988 - 5,885 - 2,117 -10% - (2,988) - (5,885) - (2,117)
* Impact on equity reflects adjustments for tax, when applicable. Interest-rate risk Short term insurance liabilities are not directly sensitive to the level of market interest rates, as they are undiscounted and contractually non-interest-bearing. However, due to the time value of money and impact of interest rates on the level of bodily injury and certain liability claims incurred by the Group’s and Company’s insurance contract holders (where an increase of interest rates would normally produce a higher insurance liability), the Group and Company match the liabilities by using portfolios of debt securities of mean duration of 2 - 3 years. The Group and Company’s interest rate risk mainly arises from investment in AFS debt securities which are recorded at fair value. The impact on profit before tax at +/- 50 basis point change in the interest rate, with all other variables held consistent, is insignificant to the Group and Company given that there are minimal floating rate financial instruments. Foreign currency risk As the Group’s and Company’s business is conducted primarily in Malaysia, the financial assets are also primarily maintained in Malaysia and denominated in the local currency as its insurance contract liabilities. As the Group’s and Company’s main foreign currency risk from recognised assets and liabilities arises from reinsurance transactions for which the balances are expected to be settled and realised in less than a year, the impact arising from sensitivity in foreign currency exchange rates is deemed minimal as the Group and Company have no significant concentration of foreign currency risk.

33 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT PLAN AND STRUCTURE Capital Management Plan (“CMP”)
As per the RBC Framework issued by BNM, the Group and Company are required to assess its capital profiles and develop appropriate plans towards developing internal capital target/plans. In line with this requirement, management had developed a CMP that takes into account the Group’s and Company’s strategic business direction and changing business environment, and adequate processes to monitor and ensure the maintenance of an appropriate level of capital which commensurate with the current risk profile of the Group and Company. The Board had approved and adopted the CMP for implementation with effect from 1 January 2009. The Risk Management Committee is responsible for the oversight of the Group’s and Company’s capital management. All proposals for any deviation from capital targets or capital raising exercise must be approved by the Risk Management Committee prior to recommendation to the Board of Directors for approval and implementation.
Stress testing Stress tests and scenario analyses are important components of a risk management framework.
The Group and Company are required to perform stress tests at least twice a year on the financial performance of the Group and Company to detect possible sources of vulnerability. The objective is to ensure that management can identify problems early so that pre-emptive measures can be implemented at an early stage.
The results and proposed action plan would be incorporated into the Group‘s and Company’s
capital management plan and be used to determine the extent by which capital will be eroded by the threats identified and the impact on the Group’s and Company’s financial health, the actions that will be required to mitigate the threats identified and the future financial resilience of the Group and Company.
