During the calculation of total amount of funds securing insurance reserves, the part of amounts that meets the following diversification norms is accepted after applying the coefficients specified in Item 1.1 of this Annex to carrying values of the assets in which those funds are expressed: 2.1.1. Government securities – up to 100% of insurance reserves. 2.1.2. Funds in bank accounts – subject to a maximum 30% per bank, up to 80% of insurance reserves. 2.1.3. Real estate – subject to a maximum 10% per real estate, up to 20% of insurance reserves. 2.1.4. Non-government securities – up to 15% of insurance reserves. 2.1.5. insurance and reinsurance premiums to be received under insurance and reinsurance agreements, not delinquent and/or delinquent for up to 90 days as of the reporting date – up to 30% of insurance reserves.

2.1.6. The share of reinsurers in insurance reserves (except for the share of reinsurers in reported, but not adjusted loss reserves) is taken as 75% of insurance reserves. The share of reinsurers in reported, but not adjusted loss reserves is taken in actual amount. 2.1.7. funds lent to policyholders or the insured on endowment life insurance – up to 50% of mathematical reserves (less the share of reinsurers in mathematical reserves). 2.2. Total amount of funds allocated for insurance reserves equals the aggregate of received amounts not exceeding the diversification norms outlined in Item 2.1 of this Annex, adjusted by the coefficients specified in Item 1.1 of this Annex applied to the carrying values of the assets backing those reserves. 2.3. Total amount of funds securing insurance reserves should not be less than the amount of those reserves. 3. Insurer’s own funds and the investment of these funds 3.1. Insurer’s own funds are calculated with the below formula: A = B - max (C - max (D - 0,3 * E, 0), 0) - max (F1, E + (F1 - F2)) - G - İ - J where: A – insurer’s own funds. B – total carrying value of insurer’s assets. C – insurer’s insurance related balance sheet liabilities (less insurance reserves). D – insurance and reinsurance premiums not delinquent for up to 90 days. E – insurance premiums. F1 – total amount of carrying values of assets securing insurer’s insurance reserves. F2 –sum of the parts of amounts that make up total amount of funds that secure insurer's insurance reserves not exceeding diversification norms. G – insurer’s balance sheet liabilities not related to insurance activities. İ – insurer’s off-balance sheet liabilities (total amounts guaranteed to be paid). J – total carrying value of assets not attributed to the group of assets specified in Articles 63.1.1-63.1.6 and 64.1.1-64.1.7 of the Law. 3.2. To calculate insurer's total capital, the following coefficients are applied to carrying values of its assets, which represent its own funds: 3.2.1. Government securities – 100%. 3.2.2. Funds in bank accounts – 100%. 3.2.3. Outstanding value of real estate – 80%. 3.2.4. Non-government securities – 80%. 3.2.5. Funds invested to authorized capital of other legal entities – 80%. 3.2.6. Funds lent to own staff – 80%.

4. Diversification norms to be considered during the investment of insurer’s own funds 4.1. During the calculation of insurer's total capital, the coefficients specified in Item 3.2 of this Annex are applied to carrying values of the assets considered in this calculation. The portion of the ratio between generated amounts and total sum of those amounts that adheres to the following diversification norms is then accepted: 4.1.1. Government securities – up to 100%. 4.1.2. Funds in bank accounts – subject to a maximum 30% per bank, up to 80%. 4.1.3. Real estate – subject to a maximum 10% per real estate, up to 20%. 4.1.4. Non-government securities – up to 15%. 4.1.5. funds invested in authorized capital of other legal entities, provided that the share in authorized capital of one legal entity does not exceed 5% and does not exceed 45% of the authorized capital of the relevant legal entity, except for the cases provided for in Article 66.4 of the Law – up to 10%. 4.1.6. Funds lent to own staff, provided that total amount of debt to one employee does not exceed 1% – up to 10%.
5. Procedure of the calculation of insurer’s total capital Total capital is equal to the sum of parts of amounts generated after applying the coefficients specified in Item 3.2 of this Annex to carrying values of the assets accepted for the calculation of this capital, not exceeding the diversification norms specified in Item 4.1 of this Annex.

1. ‘Other assets’ in Column 2 means other assets on the active part of the balance sheet, except for the assets specified in Items 1-9 of that column, and they should be written in the report sequentially (according to the active part of the balance sheet).

2. Total of Column 10 shows total amount of funds securing insurance reserves.

3. Total of Column 16 shows amount of total capital.

4. Carrying amounts of assets specified in rows 5, 6 and 7 are written in full amount in Column 9.

5. Total of Column 11 should not be more than the amount of insurer’s own funds calculated in Form №HB4.

6. Except for the 'Interim final' rows relating to assets 5 and 6 in Column 2, in other 'Interim total' rows in Column 10, the amounts allocated to individual assets within a specific asset group do not surpass the diversification rates designated for those assets. The allocation is capped at the lesser of the sum of its parts and the total amount designated for that asset group, ensuring it does not exceed the specified diversification rates for that group of assets.

7. In Column 10 on the ‘Interim total’ on assets 5 and 6 in Column 2 the sum of the parts of the amounts directed to individual assets for a specific group of assets that do not exceed the diversification rates set for those assets.

8. In column 16 of each 'Interim total' row, the displayed sum is the smaller of two values: the total of amounts allocated to individual assets within a specific asset group, ensuring they do not surpass the diversification percentages set for those assets, and the total sum allocated to that asset group overall, ensuring it does not exceed the diversification percentage determined for that group of assets.
