(2,2) Basis of Consolidation of Financial Statements
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited Company) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(2,3) Application of New and Amended International Financial Reporting Standards The company applied the following new and amended standards during the year: 1- 2- 3- The application of these new and amended standards did not result in a material effect on the financial amounts of the current and prior accounting periods (or the application of these new and amended standards and their interpretations resulted in changes in the accounting policies followed by the company in the following areas, which had an effect on the financial amounts of the current year and prior years).
(2,4) Changes in Accounting Policies (1,4,2) New Standards, Interpretations, and Amendments Effective from January 1, .................... The company applied International Financial Reporting Standard No. 17 "Insurance Contracts", where it assessed the impact of applying the standard, determined the gap between the previous situation and the requirements of the standard, and prepared a risk assessment system through actuarial statistical models for various insurance contracts, in addition to updating information technology systems to ensure the availability of all necessary databases to apply actuarial models and prepare systems for estimating future cash flows for contracts, determining the present value of cash, in addition to updating accounting policies and procedures and updating other operational policies, which had an effect on the financial statements. The company also re-evaluated the models used to recognize insurance contract revenues according to the requirements of the standard as shown in the applied policies in Note (2,5).
The transition provisions for applying the standard require retrospective application by following the following approaches (Full Retrospective / Modified Retrospective / Fair Value. (The transitional approach followed by the company is stated)), with recognizing the cumulative effect of applying the standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or any other component of equity, if necessary) at the beginning of the year.
The effect of applying the standard and the adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings is disclosed in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders' Equity.
The effect of application is also disclosed, along with a summary of the restatement of financial statement items for the year ended as of December 31, ....................
The company has disclosed accounting policies in line with the requirements of the International Accounting Standards Board and its amendments regarding the presentation of financial statements "IFRS Practice Statement 2" under the requirements of the Central Bank of Jordan.

CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited Company) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(2,5) Use of Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of consolidated financial statements and the application of accounting policies requires the company's management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of financial assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. These estimates and judgments also affect revenues, expenses, and provisions, as well as changes in fair value shown in the statement of profit or loss and within shareholders' equity. In particular, the company's management is required to issue important judgments and estimates to estimate the amounts and timing of future cash flows. The estimates mentioned are necessarily based on assumptions and multiple factors with varying degrees of judgment and uncertainty, and actual results may differ from estimates due to changes resulting from the conditions and circumstances of those estimates in the future.
(The nature and amount of changes in the estimated amounts included in previous financial year reports are disclosed, if these changes have a material effect on the current statements).
Our estimates within the consolidated financial statements are reasonable and detailed as follows: (1,5,2) Expected Credit Losses The company applies (the method used by the company to calculate expected credit losses is stated), which is mandated by International Financial Reporting Standard No. (9), for recognizing impairment of expected credit losses over the life of receivables and contractual assets based on credit risk and homogeneous ages.
Expected loss rates are based on the company's historical credit losses encountered over the previous three-year period up to the end of the current year. Historical loss rates are then adjusted for current and future information on macroeconomic factors that affect the company's customers (the factors on which the company relied in determining expected credit losses are stated) in accordance with instructions issued by the Central Bank of Jordan on this matter.
(2,5,2) Impairment of Financial Assets The company reviews the values recorded in the records for financial assets at the date of the financial statements to determine if there are indicators indicating impairment in their value. In the event that such indicators exist, the fair value is estimated to determine the impairment loss.
(3,5,2) Income Tax The financial year is charged with its share of income tax expense according to systems, laws, and international financial reporting standards.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited Company) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
The balance of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the date of the financial statements and is reduced in the event that it is expected that the benefit of those deferred tax assets will not be utilized partially or fully, or if the tax liability is settled or no longer needed.
(4,5,2) Property, Equipment, and Intangible Assets Management periodically re-estimates the productive lives of tangible and intangible assets for the purpose of calculating annual depreciation and amortization based on the general condition of those assets and estimates of expected productive lives in the future, and impairment losses (if any) are recorded in the statement of profit or loss.
(5,5,2) Present Value of Future Cash Flows Cash flows are defined as all amounts expected to be collected and expected to be paid within the scope of the insurance contract / retained reinsurance contract after adjustment to reflect the timing and uncertainty of those amounts, based on actuarial assumptions and the company's experience in managing the group of insurance contracts / retained reinsurance contracts. Future cash flows are recognized at present value (the assumptions followed in estimating future cash flows and the future cash flows that were considered are stated, as well as the method used to discount those cash flows, the discount rate, and the yield curve used, in addition to the justification for adopting the method used in calculating discount rates and the mechanism for handling insurance financing income or expense (through the statement of profit or loss or the statement of other comprehensive income)). When setting assumptions regarding the estimation of cash flows for groups of insurance contracts, the company must consider the following:
(6,5,2) Non-Financial Risk Adjustments The company establishes a provision for uncertainty regarding the amount and timing of cash flows arising from non-financial risks based on actuarial assumptions and the company's experience in managing its portfolio of held insurance/reinsurance contracts (the method to be followed in evaluating non-financial risk adjustments, such as Value at Risk, or capital cost methods and appropriate confidence levels if any, shall be disclosed). The company must disclose calculation details and assumptions.
(7,5,2) Non-Insurance Components The company discloses the following aspects:
(8,5,2) Lawsuits Filed Against the Company A provision is established for lawsuits filed against the company based on a legal study prepared by the company’s lawyers, which determines potential future risks, and these studies are reviewed periodically.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(9,5,2) Fair Value Levels Fair value measurement hierarchy levels are disclosed, classifying fair value measurements fully. Fair value measurements are separated according to the levels defined in International Financial Reporting Standards. The difference between Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements represents an assessment of whether information or inputs can be observed and the significance of unobservable information requiring judgment and detailed analysis of inputs used to measure fair value, including consideration of all factors pertaining to assets or liabilities.
(6,2) Key Accounting Policies Followed (1,6,2) Segment Information Business segment represents a group of assets and operations that jointly provide products or services subject to risks and returns different from those related to other segments, measured according to financial reports used by the company. Geographic segment relates to providing products or services in a specific economic environment subject to risks and returns different from those related to segments operating in other economic environments.
(2,6,2) Goodwill Goodwill is recorded at cost, representing the excess of the cost of acquiring or purchasing a subsidiary or companies owned jointly with other companies over the company’s share in the fair value of net identifiable assets and liabilities of that company at the acquisition date. Goodwill resulting from investment in subsidiaries is recorded in a separate line item as intangible assets.
Goodwill resulting from investment in associates appears as part of the investment account in the associate company, and goodwill is subsequently impaired by any decline in the value of the investment.
Goodwill is allocated to one or more cash-generating units for impairment testing purposes.
An impairment test for goodwill is performed at each financial reporting date, and goodwill is impaired if there is indication that its value has declined, specifically when the estimated recoverable amount of the cash-generating units to which goodwill belongs is less than the carrying amount of the unit(s). Impairment loss is recorded in the statement of profit or loss.
Impairment loss on goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. In case of sale of a subsidiary or jointly owned company, the goodwill value is taken into account when determining the profit or loss from the sale transaction.
(3,6,2) Definition of Insurance Contract A contract under which an insurance company accepts significant insurance risk from the policyholder, agreeing to compensate the policyholder/beneficiary in the event of a specific uncertain future event (insured peril) that negatively affects the policyholder/beneficiary. An insurance contract is recognized based on the earliest of the following dates:
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
Regarding insurance contracts containing a direct participation feature and returns having economic characteristics similar to insurance contracts (long coverage period, recurring premiums, and amount/timing of return determined by the issuer), and linked to the same assets or participating in the performance of insurance contracts, contracts containing this feature at inception include the following:
(Disclosure of insurance contracts containing a direct participation feature, if any)
Contracts not classified as insurance contracts include, for example:
(4,6,2) Held Reinsurance Contracts These are contracts concluded with reinsurers to compensate the insurance company for claims arising from insurance contracts issued by it. Held reinsurance contracts are recognized:
(5,6,2) Liability for Remaining Coverage The amount the company must establish upon recognition of insurance contracts relating to future financial periods resulting from active insurance contracts.
(6,6,2) Liability for Incurred Claims The total value of expected and incurred costs to the company resulting from perils covered by insurance contracts that occurred before the end of the financial period, including reported and unreported claims, plus related expenses.
(7,6,2) Contractual Service Margin The unearned profit from remaining coverage expected to be profitable, which is recognized concurrently with the provision of insurance contract services.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(8,6,2) Initial Recognition of Insurance Contracts / General Measurement Model / Variable Fee Approach A group of insurance contracts is measured at initial recognition as follows:
(9,6,2) Subsequent Measurement of Insurance Contracts / General Measurement Model / Variable Fee Approach The company recognizes the carrying amount of any group of insurance contracts at the end of each period, consisting of the sum of the following:
(10,6,2) Initial Recognition of Insurance Contracts / Premium Allocation Approach A group of insurance contracts is measured at initial recognition as follows:
(11,6,2) Subsequent Measurement / Premium Allocation Approach
The company at the end of each subsequent period recognizes the carrying amount of the liability, considering the following adjustments to the liability balance:
Liability for incurred claims, calculated based on the best estimate of future cash flows to settle claims, added to non-financial risk adjustments, considering application of discount rate to claims.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(12,6,2) Modification of Insurance Contracts The company modifies insurance contracts by processing expected changes in future cash flows resulting from changes in estimates of cash flows to fulfill contracts, unless conditions for derecognition of insurance contracts apply.
(13,6,2) Derecognition of Insurance Contracts The company derecognizes insurance contracts in the following cases:
(14,6,2) Loss-Making Insurance Contracts The company recognizes insurance contracts as loss-making if the contract is expected to be loss-making at the initial recognition date, and the loss component is measured by comparing expected cash flows to fulfill contract liabilities or group of contracts with cash flows collected from this contract or group of contracts. The company must disclose the loss component if the contractual service margin value equals zero (applicable only to the general measurement model and variable fee approach).
(15,6,2) Summary of Measurement Approaches (1) The insurance company classifies insurance contracts as follows:
| Portfolio** | Contract Classification** | Measurement Approach*** |
|---|---|---|
(2) The insurance company classifies held reinsurance contracts as follows:
| Portfolio* | Measurement Approach** |
|---|---|
(16,6,2) Aggregation Level Portfolios of insurance contracts are detailed into groups by underwriting year so that portfolios of insurance contracts with similar risks managed together are aggregated. Including two types of insurance business in the same portfolio is prohibited, complying with minimum requirements for insurance and reinsurance contract portfolios according to prevailing legislation.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(17,6,2) Profitability Level Contract groups referred to in the previous level are classified into the categories listed below, based on expected net cash flows from the contract and the accounting method followed in processing contract groups:
(18,6,2) Financial Assets Financial assets are classified at initial recognition into one of the following categories:
Amortized cost.
Fair value through profit or loss.
Fair value through other comprehensive income.
Financial Assets at Amortized Cost The company classifies financial assets at amortized cost based on the company’s business model for managing financial assets and contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets, when both of the following conditions are met:
Financial assets at amortized cost are recorded at cost upon purchase plus acquisition costs. Premiums/discounts (if any) are amortized using the effective interest method as interest or for calculation, and any provisions resulting from impairment leading to recoverability of this investment or part thereof are deducted. Any impairment in their value is recorded in the profit or loss statement.
The impairment amount of financial assets at amortized cost is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.
The standard allows in rare cases to measure these assets at fair value through profit or loss if it eliminates or significantly reduces measurement inconsistency (sometimes called accounting mismatch) arising from measuring assets or liabilities or recognizing results arising from them on different bases.
Financial assets at amortized cost are reduced by impairment losses, where interest income, foreign exchange gains/losses, and impairment are recognized in the statement of profit or loss, and gains or losses resulting from derecognition of financial assets appear in the statement of profit or loss.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recorded at fair value upon purchase (acquisition costs charged to profit or loss) and revalued at the financial statement date at fair value. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in the unified statement of profit or loss in the same period the change occurs, including changes in fair value resulting from translation differences of non-monetary items in foreign currencies. Distributed dividends or returns are recorded in the profit or loss statement when realized (approved by the General Assembly of Shareholders).
Reclassification Reclassification from amortized cost to financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is permitted only when the entity changes the business model on which it classified those assets as mentioned above, taking into account the following:
(19,6,2) Investment Properties Investment properties appear at cost less accumulated depreciation (excluding land). These investments are depreciated over their productive life at a rate ranging between ...% to ...%. Revenue or operating expenses for these investments are charged to the profit or loss statement. An impairment provision is established at fair value, and fair value is disclosed in note (Investment Properties). (Investment properties are evaluated in accordance with prevailing legislation, and fair value is disclosed in the Investment Properties note).
(20,6,2) Investments in Associates Associates are companies in which the company exercises significant influence over decisions related to financial and operational policies (but does not control them), owning a percentage ranging between (20%-50%) of voting rights. Investments in associates appear under the equity method. Revenue and expenses resulting from transactions between the company and associates are eliminated according to the company’s contribution percentage in these companies.
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(21,6,2) Property and Equipment Property and equipment appear at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Property and equipment (excluding land) are depreciated when ready for use using the straight-line method over their expected productive life using the following annual percentages, and depreciation expense is charged to the profit or loss statement.
| Depreciation % | |
|---|---|
| Buildings | |
| Equipment, machinery, and furniture | |
| Transport media | |
| Decorations |
Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated when these assets are ready for use for intended purposes. (Full value of depreciation expense for the period is shown in the dedicated line item in the profit or loss statement). When the recoverable amount of any property or equipment falls below its net book value, its value is written down to the recoverable amount, and impairment value is recorded in the profit or loss statement.
Construction-in-progress property and equipment for company use appear after deducting any impairment losses.
The productive life of property and equipment is reviewed at the end of each year. If expectations of productive life differ from previous estimates, the change in estimate is recorded for subsequent years as a change in estimates.
Gains or losses resulting from disposal or scrapping of any property or equipment, representing the difference between proceeds from sale and carrying amount of the asset, appear in the profit or loss statement.
Property and equipment are derecognized when disposed of or when no future benefits are expected from their use or disposal.
(22,6,2) Intangible Assets
CENTRAL BANK OF JORDAN البنك المركزي الأردني
Company .................................... (Joint Stock Limited) Amman - Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
(23,6,2) Right-of-Use Assets The company recognizes right-of-use assets on the date the asset becomes available for use. Right-of-use assets are recognized at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and value is adjusted upon revaluation.
(24,6,2) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents represent cash in hand, bank balances, and bank deposits with maturities not exceeding three months, after deducting bank overdraft accounts and restricted withdrawal balances.
(25,6,2) Offset Offsetting between financial assets and financial liabilities and showing the net amount in the statement of financial position is performed only when legally binding rights exist and when they are settled on a net basis or realization of assets and settlement of liabilities occur simultaneously.
(26,6,2) Recognition Date of Financial Assets Purchase and sale of financial assets are recognized on the trade date (date the company commits to selling or buying the financial assets).
(27,6,2) Fair Value Closing prices (buying assets/selling liabilities) on the financial statement date in active markets represent fair value of financial instruments having market prices. In case of lack of published prices or lack of active trading for some financial instruments or inactive market, fair value is estimated by several methods, including:
(28,6,2) Financial Liabilities The company classifies financial liabilities based on the purpose of creation of this obligation. The company initially recognizes bank overdraft items at net fair value less costs associated with obtaining facilities. Such liabilities bearing interest are subsequently amortized at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Financing cost includes initial costs, premium paid upon settlement, plus interest accruing during the life of the obligation.
(29,6,2) Insurance Contract Liabilities Insurance contract liabilities are recognized when the company has obligations on the financial statement date arising from past events related to insurance contracts, and settlement of obligations is probable and their value can be reliably measured. Amounts recognized as insurance contract liabilities represent the best estimate of amounts required to settle the obligation as of the financial statement date, considering risks and uncertainties associated with insurance contract liabilities. When liability value is determined based on estimated cash flows to settle the current obligation, its carrying amount represents the present value of these cash flows.

When it is expected that some or all of the required economic benefits from other parties will be recovered to settle liabilities, the debtor’s claim is recognized within assets if receipt of compensation is virtually certain and its value can be reliably measured.
(30,6,2) End-of-Service Benefit Provision End-of-service benefit provision for employees is calculated according to the company’s policy consistent with Jordanian Labor Law. Annual compensation incurred for employees leaving service is recorded to the end-of-service benefit provision account upon payment. A provision for liabilities incurred by the company for employee end-of-service compensation is taken in the profit or loss statement.
