# Simplified Approach
TheGroup follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables. TheapplicationofsimplifiedapproachdoesnotrequiretheGrouptotrackchangesincreditrisk.Rather,itrecognisesimpairmentlossallowancebasedonlifetimeECLsateachreportingdate,rightfromitsinitialrecognition.TheGroupusesaprovisionmatrixtodetermineimpairmentlossallowanceonportfolioofitstradereceivables.Theprovisionmatrixisbasedonitshistoricallyobserveddefaultratesovertheexpectedlifeofthetradereceivablesandisadjustedforforward-lookingestimates.Ateveryreportingdate,thehistoricalobserveddefaultratesareupdatedforchangesintheforward-lookingestimates.
# Stages Approach
Forrecognitionofimpairmentlossonotherfinancialassetsandriskexposure,theGroupdeterminesthatwhetherthere has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increasedsignificantly,12-MonthsECL(“12mECL”)isusedtoprovideforimpairmentloss.However,ifcreditriskisincreasedsignificantly,LifeTimeECL(“LTECL”)isused.If,inasubsequentperiod,creditqualityoftheinstrumentimprovessuchthatthereisnolongerasignificantincreaseincreditrisksinceinitialrecognition,theGroupreverttorecognisingimpairmentlossallowancebasedon12-monthsECL.

Ifaborrowerhasvariousfacilitieshavingdifferentpastduestatus,thenthehighestdayspastdue(“DPD”)isconsideredtobeapplicableforallthefacilitiesofthatborrower.
The Group calculates ECL based on total loans receivable (including accrued interest) which are divided intosegmentsbasedupontheindustryinwhichthecustomerisoperating.
ThemechanicsoftheECLcalculationsareoutlinedbelowandthekeyelementsare,asfollows:
PD-TheProbabilityofDefault(“PD”)isanestimateofthelikelihoodofdefaultoveragiventimehorizon.
